Chapter 39: Revenge
The woman fell to the ground, barely able to stand upright, and Chen Zhou noticed that her clothes were covered in blood.
And the whole body was extremely dirty, which was completely different from what Chen Zhou had just seen her, and Chen Zhou was very surprised.
What's going on here?
"Save ...... Save ......," the woman said, blood already flowing from the corners of her mouth.
The next moment, the woman spat out a mouthful of blood, and then collapsed to the ground like an uncontrollable puppet, without any movement.
Chen Zhou didn't have the heart to continue to rest now, so he immediately climbed off the bed with his waist propped up, and then walked quickly to the woman's side and squatted.
Chen Zhou first checked the woman's breathing.
There is no breath left.
Chen Zhou glanced at the woman's body and saw all kinds of wounds, including knife wounds, sword wounds, and axe wounds.
Looking at these wounds, as well as the woman who had died due to excessive blood loss, Chen Zhou was extremely angry.
The woman and the uncle are obviously two very good people, why would they kill them?
They just went to the imperial city to redeem their daughter, and the uncle had not returned, and the woman was already dead.
Chen Zhou didn't know what was going on, and now the only clue found was that the woman was dead, and no one told Chen Zhou what had happened.
Chen Zhou could only watch helplessly at the woman's fallen body in place.
"Look at the wounds on the body, this should be a combination, a small group killed the woman. If you look at the bruises on the woman's hands, you will see that she had fought bitterly before she died. ”
Ren Lao followed Chen Zhou's line of sight and looked at them one by one, and the wounds on the woman's body were indeed shocking.
"I want to find the murderer. Chen Zhou lowered his head and said.
Ren Lao nodded, and instead of stopping Chen Zhou, he said, "You are not going to find that murderer now to send him to death?"
"You should wait until your body recovers, you can't do anything right now. ”
"After I go back, I will use my true qi to nourish my body, so that my body can recover as soon as possible!"
Elder Ren's words forced Chen Zhou to return to the bed just now.
Chen Zhou was squatting with great effort now, and naturally wanted to go back to bed, but when he saw the injuries on the woman's body, Chen Zhou was extremely angry.
Why be cruel to such a kind person?
Chen Zhou couldn't figure it out if he wanted to break his head.
What exactly did this group of people see in the old woman.
Why kill the old woman.
"Auntie, I will definitely avenge you!" Chen Zhou said firmly, and then used all his strength to move Auntie's body aside, Chen Zhou removed a long cloth and gently covered the old woman's body.
And Chen Zhou sat up on the spot, and the automatic spirit breathing and salted fish system were providing Chen Zhou's true qi all the time, but Chen Zhou was too eager to treat his body now, and these true qi were completely insufficient.
Chen Zhou swallowed the moment again for a moment of Tsukidan.
Chen Zhou had a full box of Zhuji Dan, but he used the previous one, Chen Zhou believed that the realm maintained by taking pills must be unstable, and only through his own down-to-earth cultivation was the safest.
Moreover, the pill will also cause adverse effects on the body, and Chen Zhou does not want to take this pill, although many people rush to ask for it.
But Chen Zhou didn't care at all.
What he cares about is that Tsukidan contains an ocean-like true qi.
Chen Zhou must recover his body as soon as possible, the old woman died tragically, Chen Zhou must find the reason, otherwise, the old woman will not be able to die.
Swallowing Tsukidan, Chen Zhou immediately felt the tide of true qi coming towards his body.
The true qi of Zhuji Dan is very mild, and it will not have the effect of repulsion for anyone, for example, the current Chen Zhou can completely wash away the true qi in Zhuji Dan and perfectly transform it into his own true qi.
"Absorb up to three Tsukidan pills in one day, and after absorbing this one, you can't absorb it anymore. There will be side effects on the body. Ren Lao reminded.
Chen Zhou didn't care so much, and he was very anxious.
True Qi poured in like a tide, and Chen Zhou's injuries recovered faster and faster.
"I just need to be able to walk now!" Chen Zhou thought, as long as he can walk freely, he can set off.
I couldn't straighten my waist before, but now I can support it, and I don't have much problem walking upright.
However, the biggest problem is that although he can walk upright, Chen Zhou still can't move too much, and can only walk normally.
Chen Zhou allowed the true qi in his body to continue to repair his body, and he had already walked out of the wooden house.
Chen Zhou has not walked out of the wooden house since he woke up, and now it is the first time he has stepped out of the wooden house and seen the scene of Mindao for the first time.
Since the old woman was covered with wounds, she dragged blood all the way back, and there were blood stains all over her body, so looking out along the blood stains in the wooden house, you could see a bright red blood stain along the wooden house steps all the way to the main road.
People came and went in a hurry on the main road of the people's road, almost all of them were skinny and empty-eyed, and they had no pity for the blood stains on the ground, and they just took care of their own path.
Some people even stepped on the bloodstain without any respect for it.
Chen Zhou stood in place, and his originally angry mood did not continue to be more angry, but calmed down a lot.
Chen Zhou suddenly calmed down.
He suddenly understood that there were very few people on the Mindao who had the same compassion as the old woman, and if he had not touched them, but the other Mindao residents, he would probably still be lying on the road, but his belongings had been washed away.
The folk customs are like this, human life is very common here, they are the lowest people in the southern country, they live only for food, just numb and lingering.
They no longer have the so-called human heart, their human heart is just like their skinny appearance, only a dirty skin remains, and there is no so-called flesh and blood in the heart.
The people in the folk road are just walking corpses, and they run around every day to work in order to be able to pay the so-called civil road management fee.
Chen Zhou now understands how rare people like the old woman and the uncle are in the people's way, they are honest and kind, and when they see money and a large amount of dry food, they do not immediately take it for themselves, but are afraid that Chen Zhou will not have anything to eat.
But such a kind person died in front of Chen Zhou, and she crawled to the house with her last breath, perhaps because she didn't want her body to lie on the dirty folk road.
Chen Zhou immediately acted along the bloodstains, he wanted to avenge the old woman.
Chen Zhou walked faster and faster, and the more he got to the crowd, the thinner the blood stains became, and there were dirty footprints printed on them.
The bloodstains that could have been clearly seen were difficult to distinguish when they got to the back.
Chen Zhou stood in the crowd, looking at the numb humans coming and going, and felt a deep helplessness.
The bloodstains disappeared when they reached the center of the road, and Chen Zhou thought that the two of them were going to Nanguo City to redeem their daughter!
Chen Zhou looked at the end of the people's road not far away, which was a huge city tower, on which there was a huge gilt long flat, with the two big characters "Nanguo" written on it.
Without further ado, Chen Zhou immediately quickened the pace of his feet and followed the flow of people into the gate of the southern country.
There are a few soldiers hanging at the gate of the southern country, not so much for security as for looting.
At this moment, Chen Zhou, who was a keen hearing, suddenly heard a soldier say.
"How long will it take for these poor folk ghosts to produce someone as rich as the couple just now?"
Another soldier also said, "Those two couples should have been in decline as officials, right? Otherwise, how could there be so much dry food and silver tickets?"
"Yes, yes, otherwise how could he redeem his daughter? It is likely that the official was raided and his daughter was arrested!"
Several soldiers teased as they checked the passers-by.
When Chen Zhou heard this, he immediately understood that the uncle and his wife had not entered the southern city at all!
They were stopped at the gates by this group of soldiers!
Chen Zhou was eager to know the truth of the matter, and immediately turned his head around to look for the traces of those soldiers.
"Hahahahahahaha...... But the two couples were pitiful, they were discovered by the captain who came to inspect, and the captain didn't dare not give them what the captain wanted!"
"That's not it, the old woman didn't give it, and was directly stabbed half to death by the captain's order. ”
......
Just when Chen Zhou was looking around for the traces of these soldiers, they suddenly said these words, and Chen Zhou immediately found them.
It was another checkpoint not far from Chen Zhou.
There were four soldiers checking on passers-by, telling jokes all the time.
At this moment, Chen Zhou's movements were seen by the people on both sides, and they immediately stopped Chen Zhou.
"Who are you?
Folk Resident Card?
Chen Zhou categorically didn't, and immediately grabbed the soldier's arm, with the strength of his body, this soldier was far inferior to Chen Zhou, who had passed the two refinements.
With a little force, Chen Zhou threw the soldier to the ground through the soldier's arm, and the soldier's arm was also tightly grasped by Chen Zhou, showing a high degree of bending, Chen Zhou only needed to use a little more strength, and the soldier's arm was broken.
Just grasp this strength, and the soldier will be very painful.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack, enemy attack! Light the torch immediately!" cried out the soldier, ignoring his physical pain.
This shout directly caused the crowd to panic.
The people who entered the southern country of the people were scurrying around, and those who had planned to leave the southern country immediately turned around and rushed into the southern country.
Several soldiers also raised their weapons vigilantly, with swords, knives and axes.
Chen Zhou let go of the soldier in front of him and jumped in front of the soldiers who had just mentioned the uncle and his wife.
"I'll hack you to death!" the man with the big axe brandished the axe and slashed at Chen Zhou.
Several people moved together, and they all attacked Chen Zhou in a huff.
Chen Zhou's fighting style was naturally much higher than that of these third-rate soldiers, and without a few moves, he took all three of them down.
There was an axe on the woman's body, and Chen Zhou slowly looked at the only big man with an axe, and dodged the axe and cut off the big man's right hand with the axe.
"Where is the couple you just talked about, where are you now?" Chen Zhou didn't use a trace of true qi during the whole process, and knocked out several people with just physical combat.
Chen Zhou stepped on the big man.
"We don't know...... That old ...... Lady ...... Ahh......h
Chen Zhou saw that he deliberately slowed down his speech and didn't say anything when he said it, so he directly stepped on the back of the big man, and the big man spurted out a mouthful of blood.
The arm was cut off, and the big man couldn't support it, and he was still kicked, and his breath was even more shaky.
"Spare ...... I...... Big...... Chivalrous ......"
