Chapter 164: I will kill every person who comes forward
Deng’s army has come to support us, and everyone can breathe a sigh of relief.
"Sorry, I was delayed while mobilizing the troops. Are you all okay?"
All the way from the village entrance, Deng Ren and his friends had come here amidst corpses and blood all over the ground, so naturally they knew the situation here without asking too many questions.
"What crime should be committed by such a bold bandit who colluded with the Zhennan Army to enter the capital and massacred people and villages?"
"Wait for this duke to capture this fellow and hand him over to Your Majesty for severe punishment!"
Deng Ren stared at Wu Yanei with his fierce eyes, wishing he could cut him into pieces. However, even that would not be enough to comfort the lives of those who had died in vain in the village.
It was just an arrow in the leg, which was nothing to Wu Yanei.
He quickly stood up from the ground by himself.
After pulling the arrow out of his flesh with great effort, he did not forget to tear off a piece of cloth to stop the bleeding.
"Huh, punish me?"
"They just teamed up to cause the Seventh Princess to fall off a cliff. Do you think the Emperor can trust me as his uncle, or them?"
Wu Yanei smiled disdainfully and looked at Deng Ren as if he was a fool.
"You are confusing right and wrong, and confusing black and white. Stop being so arrogant!"
Deng Renzhong was full of energy, but he was not frightened at all by his threats.
The charge that the Wu family colluded with the Zhennan Army alone was enough for Wu Yanei to defend himself.
Who can the emperor trust? What he says doesn't count.
"Haha, Wu Yanei really won't cry until he sees the coffin!"
"When I received the information that you massacred the whole village, I asked my personal guard Xiu Ming to report the matter to His Majesty."
"According to the time, His Majesty should not have gone to bed yet, waiting for you to come back and apologize!"
Li Tianzhuo asked Xiu Ming to call the palace not only to inform Deng Youning, but also the emperor and the entire Dongji court.
Wu Yanei sneered disapprovingly.
"Lord Li has been with His Majesty for five years. Don't you know that our emperor is the most suspicious person?"
"This entire village is full of Nanxin people. Even if I don't have solid evidence, Your Majesty will acquiesce to my approach of preferring injustice to leniency."
"As for these Zhennan troops, there are others who will take the blame for me."
"They weren't wearing Zhennan military uniforms, and they didn't have any military tattoos on their bodies. I thought they were just ordinary people!"
Speaking of this, Wu Yanei laughed wildly.
No one can do anything to him!
"So, how do you want to punish me?"
He raised his eyebrows and asked back, his tone full of provocation to everyone.
Then, under the cover of countless Zhennan troops, he flew up the mountain using his Qinggong skills.
The mountain was originally the courtyard of General Feng. When he brought people to massacre the village, he drove those who were not killed to the mountain and locked them up in General Feng's courtyard.
"Catch up with him!"
Jun Chenyi gave the order.
He guessed that those people were his only hope.
Whether he can survive today depends on whether these villagers, the Deng family and Jun Chenyi, can save him!
The villagers were controlled by the Wu family's assassins left on the mountain by Wu Yanei. They formed a circle around the city and squatted in the yard.
The people here are all old people, women and children who have no ability to protect themselves.
On a cold night, when the wind blew, they all shivered with cold.
The whole night was spent like this, and the bodies of some young children and elderly people had already frozen stiff.
When someone around them died, no one dared to even cry, for fear that the cruel people in the Wu family would kill them directly.
Deng Youning, Li Tianzhuo, Jun Chenyi and Deng Yan'an had been here last time, and the villagers all had impressions of them.
When they saw them appear at the gate of the courtyard, hope instantly lit up in everyone's eyes.
"Look, it's the Ninth Prince and the County Lady who are here!"
"They're coming to rescue us!"
An excited lady pointed at them and shouted happily to others.
"Noisy!"
Wu Yanei cast a look of disdain.
The assassin at the side received the order, quickly drew his sword, and killed the old lady directly.
Deng Youning and the others felt heartbroken when they saw this.
The villagers no longer dared to make a noise and just squatted with their heads in their hands.
"Wu Yanei, how many more people do you want to kill before you are satisfied?"
Li Qinghuan couldn't help but questioned angrily.
Wu Yanei had gone completely crazy. He pointed his long sword at all the villagers and looked at Li Qinghuan and everyone in the Deng family with a warning look.
It felt like it was saying, "Don't come any closer. If you come closer, I'll kill you!"
Deng Youning stopped Li Qinghuan and told her not to act rashly.
She looked for the general in the crowd, but did not see him.
"How many people did you kill in total? Where are the rest?"
The last time Jun Chenyi told her, there were more than 180 people living in the village.
Many young people work as laborers outside and seldom come back home, thus avoiding this difficulty.
The number of people I saw him kill in the village just now, plus the number of people here now, is not less than one hundred and eighty.
There should be another group of people, but I wonder where he took them?
"I wanted to keep a few pretty girls to play with, but I didn't expect you to find out."
Wu Yanei gave a look to his subordinate behind him, asking him to go into the house and bring out the rest of the people.
Those were all young girls in the village. Fortunately, they arrived in time and Deng Youning reacted quickly, so they were not raped by that dog yamenei.
Among these, there is General Feng.
That day, General Feng was willing to change his mind and devote all his strength to Li Tianzhuo, so he began to doubt.
He believed that if he captured General Feng alive and interrogated him, he would be able to find out Li Tianzhuo's true identity.
"Now, everyone is here."
"County Master Youning, do you want to count and see if there are enough?"
Wu Yanei asked very seriously.
Deng Youning did not reply, as there was indeed no shortage of people this time.
She silently released poisonous insects, trying to bite the surrounding assassins to death.
Before the insect could crawl to the feet of the assassin, the sharp-eyed Wu Yanei threw a knife at it and pierced it.
"County Lady, stop doing these little tricks!"
"If you want to save these villagers, there are ways."
"Same old condition, Ci'er's antidote!"
He has lost all patience.
In order to force Deng Youning, he took out a thin incense stick and lit it.
"How about we play another game?"
"As long as the incense ash falls, I will kill one person at random."
"Until the incense burns out, if the county lady still refuses to hand over the antidote, don't blame the people of Nanxin for dying here."
As he was speaking, the first pile of incense ash had already fallen to the ground.
Wu Yanei's long knife had already landed on the neck of an old lady.
"stop!"
He was about to cut the old woman's neck with force when Deng Youning stopped him.
"Isn't it just the antidote?"
"I'll give it to you!"
Deng Youning took out a bottle of sugar pills and threw it over.
There was no way to verify whether what he gave him was the antidote or not since he was not poisoned.
By the time he sent it to Jun Wenci, he was no longer threatened by him.
When Wu Yanei got the "antidote", his expression instantly became much more relaxed.
But he didn't intend to let the villagers go.
"We will eliminate Nan Xin's spies for your majesty."
"Kill them all!"
The corners of his mouth rose slightly, but his smile was deadly cold.
He set an example for the other assassins by stabbing General Feng in the heart with his knife.
