Chapter 233: Death Is Your Destination
"Can you do me a favor?" Kong Hai turned around and looked at Shen Linfeng solemnly.
"What?"
"After this is done, you take Xiaoyu and leave. ”
"Why?"
"I don't want her to stay here, a lifeless place in the snow and ice. And she doesn't like it either, I can tell. ”
Shen Linfeng was in a dilemma, everything he had to do was extremely dangerous, and Xiaoyu was simple-minded, like a bouquet of white flowers. There are disputes and chaos under the mountain, and Shen Linfeng is worried that she will be contaminated by the world.
Just when he didn't know whether to say yes or not, the door behind him suddenly opened, and a beautiful figure was pulled by the candlelight in the room.
"Brother, she's awake!"
Kong Hai glanced at Shen Linfeng, then turned around and walked towards the house.
As soon as she walked outside the door, Xiao Yu suddenly stopped Kong Hai and said, "Although she is awake, her mood is very unstable. I'll ask in a moment, and you'll just be listening. ”
"Hmm!" Kong Hai nodded in agreement.
Inside the house, an oil lamp was dancing gently, and the woman was hiding in the corner of the earthen kang and shivering. Her eyes wandered, as if searching for something to calm her down.
Xiaoyu carried a tattered porcelain bowl filled with warm boiling water. She handed it to the woman and said softly, "Come, drink some water!"
When the woman saw someone coming, she immediately hugged her body tighter. But when she heard a woman's voice, she slowly lifted her head.
Xiao Yu smiled and handed the porcelain bowl forward, the woman raised her head completely, she reached out to take the porcelain bowl, when the eyes of the two touched.
"Ahh
"Do you recognize me?" asked Xiaoyu.
The woman was still holding her legs and shaking.
"Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you. Do you look up and recognize me?"
After a moment, the woman nodded lightly in the same position as before.
"I'll ask you a few questions, will you answer me?"
The woman still nodded.
Xiao Yu smiled, and she gently placed her palm on the back of the woman's hand.
"Do you remember my dad?"
The woman nodded, and a hoarse cry came out of her mouth at the same time.
Xiao Yu frowned slightly, and continued to ask, "My father is dead, do you know?"
The woman let out a hoarse cry again, and two tears slowly fell from her eyes.
Xiao Yu suddenly clenched the woman's hands tighter.
"Why did you marry my father?"
As soon as these words came out, the woman hurriedly pushed Xiaoyu's hands away. She was still huddled in the corner with her legs on her hands.
"Listen, you should know very well why we came to you. I know that the real culprit is not you. Tell me, how did it go?"
"Ahh......h
Tama-chan straightened her body.
"What did you say?"
"Ahh......h
"Ahh
Shen Linfeng hurriedly rushed into the house and protected Xiao Yu's body.
"What's wrong?"
"She, she, tongue ......," Xiaoyu said in horror.
Shen Linfeng looked at the woman's face, only to see that her gaping mouth was empty.
"She, she was cut out of her tongue?" Shen Linfeng was also surprised.
The woman shouted for a long time, and then rushed directly to the ground. She rummaged through the wooden cabinet next to the clay kang. In the end, there was an extra dark red burden in her hand.
She didn't even look at the contents of the baggage, and directly pulled it out of it. That is until she finds a white cloth bag inside the baggage.
The woman carefully opened it, and inside was a boxy oilskin paper bag. She held the paper bag in both hands and handed it to Xiaoyu tremblingly.
"Give it to me?"
"Ahh
Xiao Yu took it and put it in the palm of her hand and gently opened it, and there was a twist of white powder inside.
"Ahh
"Is this poison?"
The woman nodded.
"Ba gave it to you, too?"
The woman nodded again, tears streaming from her eyes.
The facts have gradually become clear, and Shen Linfeng feels that there is no need to ask at all.
"What happened should be that Ba Ye arranged for his niece to marry the peak master, and later handed her a bag of poison, maybe the woman's original intention was not to poison the peak master, but it may be that she was forced by Ba Ye's threat, and she had to do it. ”
"The poison must have been given in small quantities over several times, so that it was months before Xiaoyu realized her father's illness. Seeing that the time was ripe, Ba Ye invited the peak master to a dinner, and something may have happened during the banquet that caused Ba Ye's trick to be revealed. The two may have fought each other, but the physical condition of the peak lord must not be Ba Ye's opponent. He fled to the ancestral hall to take refuge, and when he died, he left behind those four blood characters. ”
Xiao Yu nodded lightly after listening to Shen Linfeng's words, and Kong Hai had an angry look on his face.
"Brother, now that the truth has been ascertained, let's ...... next"
"Inform Elder Kong, gather the soldiers! I'm going to slaughter Baye with my own hands. Kong Hai's eyes seemed to burst into flames, and as soon as he finished speaking, he prepared to leave.
"Wait!" Shen Linfeng shouted, "This woman inside, what are you going to do?"
Shen Linfeng looked at Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yu also turned to Kong Hai.
Kong Hai suddenly stood still, turned around and said, "Her fate is miserable enough, let her go......"
Shen Linfeng and Xiaoyu nodded in agreement at the same time.
"Bang!"
As the three of them were about to leave, a muffled noise suddenly came from inside the house.
Shen Linfeng suddenly felt bad, and he hurriedly rushed into the house. I saw the woman collapse to the ground with her head against the wall. Blood continued to drip down her cheeks.
"Death, for her, may be the best destination!" Xiao Yu let out a long sigh as she looked at the woman's corpse.
"We've been out long enough, let's go!"
"Hmm!"
Shen Linfeng and Kong Hai entered the city overnight in the dark, but as soon as they stepped into the city gate, they felt that something was wrong. The street, which was supposed to be quiet, was now on fire. Groups of heavily armed soldiers rushed to the main city gate as if they were facing a great enemy.
"What's going on?" asked Xiao Yu, puzzled.
In the distance, two citizens were running forward carrying a bloodied soldier. Kong Hai hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.
"What's going on up ahead?"
The city's eyes widened, and they shouted in horror: "There are people attacking the mountain at the bottom of the mountain, and they are about to enter the city gate." With that, the townspeople glanced at the dying soldiers behind them and ran away.
The more Shen Linfeng and the three of them walked forward, the louder they shouted, and the people carrying the wounded around them were even more endless.
