Chapter 20: Yejiazhuang


As far as the eye can see, there are traces of fire everywhere, and although the ground is dry, there are still stinging blood stains.The hut where they had lived last night had been burned to the point of char.If it weren't for the woman's resourcefulness and pressing a table on the lid of the cellar, I am afraid that they would have been exposed by this time.The woman was gone, and the ground was charred, and there was no sign of a fight, and no traces of blood could be found."

Master, everyone is gone, everyone seems to have disappeared."

The dark aroma was panting, and every house ran over.The huts that were not burned down were empty."

Seek, keep looking."

Lin Mubai glared.Rong Zhexiu lowered his eyebrows and looked at the bloodstains under his feet, and looked up at the burned thatched hut not far away.He walked forward slowly, and only stopped when he reached the ashes, "There is blood here, it stands to reason that it should be nearby." ”Lin Mubai frowned slightly, "You mean dark incense, go look in the ashes." ”Dark Fragrance nodded and rolled up her sleeves and rummaged through them with her bare hands.Suddenly, she sat on the ground with her buttocks, her face turned pale, "Master, Master, there are so many dead people" Under a half-charred wooden plank, there is a big pit, in which the corpses of the whole village are lying horizontally.Because of the fire, the corpses were dehydrated, or the skin was peeled off, or they were burned beyond recognition.It's as if it's been cooked, and it's particularly shocking.There are more than 10 families in a village, including the elderly, the weak, women and children, and none of them are spared.Lin Mubai's first reaction was to stretch out his hand to block Rong Zhexiu's eyes, "Don't look at it." ”Rong Zhexiu gently held her hand, pulled her hand down, glanced at the corpse in the pit, turned around and vomited.Because I didn't eat anything at all last night, I vomited a stomach full of water.Seeing a lot of dead people, Lin Mubai didn't have anything, he just felt resentment in his heart, these people didn't deserve to die, it was because of their arrival that they would die.She also didn't expect that the people who chased and killed them would be so vicious that they would not even spare innocent people.If she had known this, she would not have lingered."

I don't kill Beren, but Beren dies because of me."

Lin Mubai lowered his eyes.In the distance, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and a group of catchers were rushing quickly.For the first time, everyone was rounded up, and the moment the swords came out, Lin Mubai grabbed the hands of Rong Zhexiu and Dark Xiang, and was speechless.A cart was found from the village and a horse was attached.The catchers quickly tied the hands and feet of the three people, threw them on the board and pulled them back."

It seems that you are powerless, but there are only three of you at the scene, and you are all suspects, and you should go back with us for trial."

The head catcher sneered twice, "If it is really the evil thing you have done, our family will definitely make you pay for it with blood." ”Dark Xiang opened her mouth and scolded, "Have you ever seen a killer who killed someone and stayed where he was, who came out to kill and brought a child, do you know who he is, I tell you, if you dare to frame a good person, your time of death will come."

dash""Dark incense, shut up. ”Lin Mubai scolded in a low voice.Whether the other party is quick or not to catch the dark incense is so wildly spoken, in case these people are plotting against each other, or if they are wicked people in disguise, they will not fall into the net.Therefore, until the end of the day, the identity of Rong Zhexiu cannot be raised.After all, this is not the royal hall.Rong Zhexiu didn't speak, and leaned closer to Lin Mubai's side like an ordinary child, pretending to be frightened.The head catcher scolded, "It's so rampant, when we catch your comrades, we will correct you all on the spot."

Now, even if you put on your wings, you don't want to fly out. ”Lin Mubai was silent, but he began to think about what would happen next.If it's really fast, it's okay to enter the city, with Rong Zhexiu on the side, there will be a turnaround.Dash gasped, and all she had left was to gamble.Gradually, Lin Mubai relieved himself that this road was indeed into Handyang City."

Master, will they kill us" Dark Xiang lowered her voice."

Absolutely not."

Lin Mubai said affirmatively, his face was slightly pale.When she said this, she found that Rong Zhexiu frowned and glanced at her, and immediately understood what he meant.It's just that now, she doesn't want to explain, let alone get sideways.At noon, we finally arrived at the gate of the city.The carriage walked in the bustling market, and the three of them hung their heads as much as possible, after all, the appearance of the hands and feet tied was too embarrassing, if people knew that the dignified prince was tied here to swagger through the market, the face of Prince Gong's mansion would be regarded as a clean loss.The city of Hanyang is a big city, located on the main road of the Yangtze River, and the imperial court has to allocate money here every year for dredging and strengthening the embankment.Therefore, it is considered a fat shortage in the court, and those who can be officials in Handyang City must have a head and a face, and they must have nothing to do with the people in the court.Lin Mubai looked around cautiously, his eyes seemed to be looking for something, and he seemed to be hiding from something.Suddenly, all her eyes suddenly glanced away when she touched a person in the crowd, pinned her head to one side, and turned her back slightly.Who is Rong Zhexiu, and then looked behind Lin Mubai.It was an elderly man, about forty or fifty years old, dressed in a gray robe.Rong Zhexiu could see at a glance that this gray cloth was not precious, but it was also excellent, looking at the man's slightly rickety posture, it should be the housekeeper of whose house.This person seemed to see Lin Mubai, but he didn't seem to see it really, and squeezed through the crowd to look this way.It's a pity that the carriage passed by, and by the time he pushed through the crowd, the carriage had already gone away."

It seems" The man in gray shrank his pupils, ran away, and waited for a breath to run into the huge manor, before he stopped holding his knees and panting.The slave stepped forward to help, but he pushed the slave away, "Quickly, quickly tell the owner, I, I seem to have seen Madame."

Dash went to find the owner of the village and was still stunned for something, go and "Hear the word "madam", the minions turned around and ran towards the village.On the red lacquered gate outside the village, the words "Yejiazhuang" are hung
