Chapter 534: Tear Your Heart Away
With the ancient clan occupying Xueyang City, the people in the city experienced the despair at the beginning, and after a few days, they began to gradually calm down after having Ren Baqian shouting all over the city.
Still terrified, though still at a loss for the future, it seems that these barbarians do not kill people as soon as they had thought.
Although there are still people who are taken out of their homes and cut off their heads from time to time, those are those who hide the "rebels" in their homes, and ordinary people are not greatly affected.
This made many people breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts, praying every day that such days must continue, and that one day these barbarians would not raise their butcher knives against civilians again.
If it weren't for not being able to get out of the city, many people still wanted to go out of the city to take refuge, and after three or five months, they would be able to see it clearly.
"My lord, there are seventy-three families harboring rebels in their homes, and six of them are large families. Zuo Leng handed over a list to Ren Baqian.
Ren Baqian took it and glanced at it, raised his head and asked, "Why do you say this?"
"My lord, I don't understand. Zuo Leng bowed his head and said.
"Why do you think these people risk losing their heads to take in the rebels? It's hard for anyone to do that unless they're close relatives? But if they're close relatives, why do these hidden rebels stay there knowing that this will implicate those who shelter them?
One of them would rather risk losing his head than save the other, while others would rather risk losing their head than give up their lives.
From this point of view, the objectives of the two sides are the same.
But I'm curious about what is in the minds of these two people. Ren Baqian said lightly.
Zuo Leng opened his mouth, originally he thought this was a good answer at first, because they were close relatives, so he took them in!
But when Ren Baqian said the back, he didn't understand at first, yes, why did those people risk losing their loved ones and refused to give up their lives to come out?
"My lord, I'm starting to get it too. Zuo Leng said.
"Yes, one side thinks about the other side, and the other thinks only for itself. Ren Baqian laughed.
"Let's go, let's see. Ren Baqian got up and said.
A moment later, Ren Baqian left the house with twenty guards.
In front of them were hundreds of households and dozens of horsemen leading the way, and one of them was a wrestler who was familiar with this place.
"Zuo Leng!" Ren Baqian shouted loudly, and Zuo Leng immediately drove his mount to Ren Baqian a little behind.
"It's all arranged, catch it one by one, don't let some people hear the letter and run away. Ren Baqian asked.
"My lord, it's all arranged, they can't get out. Zuo Leng immediately reassured.
"Lead the way!"
The horses ran on the stone road, and the crisp sound of hooves sounded, and a few people who had to come out of their homes shivered and hid aside when they saw it.
Ren Baqian sat on his mount, his eyes on both sides, and occasionally saw a figure appear by the window or door, looking at his group with a frightened expression.
The feeling of being feared is not good or bad.
There's nothing fulfilling, and it's not too obnoxious.
After walking in the city for half an hour, he came to a civilian area and stopped in front of an alley.
Hundreds of households rushed into the alley with their horses, and finally smashed open the doors of a house, and the noise and two screams could be heard in the distance.
A moment later, four people were escorted to Ren Baqian, a few of them were left to guard, and some went straight to the distance to continue the arrest.
Two of them were men and women who looked to be in their forties, dressed in shabby clothes and full of old age, who generally looked much older than they really were, and life had long since brought them down.
The other two were sixteen or seventeen-year-old youths, who were at the age of great energy.
At this time, the four of them were held to their necks, and they looked up at Ren Baqian with a look of fear.
Many people were quietly peeping in the surrounding houses, like rats in the sewers, not daring to show their heads at all.
"My lord, spare my life, my lord......"
Ren Baqian ignored the cries of the people below, turned his head and asked Zuo Leng: "Which one is the rebel?"
"Both small ones. Zuo Leng replied after asking a few words.
"I let people shout a few days ago, did you hear it? Why are you harboring the rebels?" Ren Baqian said lightly as he looked down on his mount.
"Adults spare their lives, my lord, the fourth is not sensible, he has never done anything bad. The middle-aged man and woman immediately begged for mercy.
"I say, why are you harboring the rebels?" Ren Baqian repeated.
"That's our child!" the two of them fell to the ground and cried.
"Little four is your child, what about the other one?" asked Ren Baqian softly. It is natural for parents to protect their children, but it is a pity that this child is not very competitive.
The two of them were occupied by fear, and could barely make a sound, and only cried when they were reminded by the knife around their necks: "He brought back the ......"
"Who is Little Four?" Ren Baqian looked down at the two young men.
"I ...... I'm ......."
"Did you hear what I asked people to shout?" asked Ren Baqian lightly.
The young man's face was frightened, his body trembled, and he could not say a word.
"Tell him that what I say must be answered!" Ren Baqian said lightly.
A Ti Rider immediately kicked Xiao Si, and a mouthful of blood spurted out directly.
"Did you hear that?"
"Listen...... Heard ......"
"Why didn't you come out? When you joined the rebels, you were ready to die, why would you rather drag a family of three to lose their heads than come out?"
"Speak!"
With Ren Baqian's shout, the young man was smashed on the head by the handle of a knife again, and his head was bleeding.
"I ...... Scared ......"
"This is the rebels, this is the so-called rebel army?" Ren Baqian chuckled, his voice full of mockery. "When you are bewitched by someone, you want to shed your blood for the people of the world, but when it comes to the end, for your own life, you would rather drag your whole family to die together, and bring a good comrade-in-arms? ”
"Kill if you want to!" another young man shouted angrily.
"Well, it's tough. If you were stubborn, you would have died in battle, and you would have killed yourself in their house if you took a step back, and then they dragged the body out and said that a rebel had run to the house and they killed you, so that you might be able to escape with your life. But instead of doing so, you retreated at the critical moment, enjoying the protection that others had given you at the cost of your life. Ren Baqian sneered.
"You evil ghost! evil ghost!" The young man suddenly couldn't bear the content of Ren Baqian's words, and frantically wanted to pounce back towards Ren Baqian, and was trampled on the ground.
"See, what kind of people are these people!" Ren Baqian raised his head and asked.
"See, sir. ”
"Selfish, cowardly, cowardly, ignorant, such people are rebels. Ren Baqian chuckled.
The demonic voice, full of malice and mockery, reached the ears of the surrounding people who were covering their mouths in the shadows and peeping carefully.
"Kill it!" Ren Baqian said coldly after laughing.
Several weapons were suddenly inserted into the bodies of several people.
"Let's go, let's go see the next one. Ren Baqian said.
The group rode away on their mounts, and it was only after a long time that the people looked at the corpses lying in a pool of blood from the room, and their faces were gloomy.
It took half a day, and Ren Baqian watched seven or eight shows of the same drama, for various reasons, but the final result was the same. Ren Baqian finally lost his interest and went back with the guards, leaving the people of the Governor's Mansion to continue to arrest.
"My lord, I still don't understand why you're doing this. On the way, the guard scratched his head.
"Hey, why do you even use your brain to think about it?" Ren Baqian said in surprise as he turned his head to look at the guard.
"I always feel that adults often can't understand what they do, and this time it's the same, so I thought about it, and I really couldn't think of it. The guard said.
"Very good, knowing that using your brain is the first step in your evolution from a monkey to a human!" Ren Baqian praised.
"Monkey?" the guard scratched his head, not knowing what he had to do with the monkey.
"Of course!" Ren Baqian then said slowly: "On the one hand, I am really curious, on the other hand, I am also killing chickens and monkeys, and at the same time opening the hearts of these people to others to see, so that before some people do something stupidly again, they will think more about whether it is worth it." ”
