Su Yang reacted immediately, released the potato bandit, tied the belt back around his waist, and said proudly: "Uncle Qin, you are wrong. As long as these bandits are dead, how can we be exposed?"
"Really? What about him?" Uncle Qin pointed at the trembling grandfather and said coldly.
Su Yang choked and didn't know what to say for a moment.
"This was a mistake. It won't happen again." Ji Xingzhi glanced at his grandfather and said.
"Very good." Uncle Qin nodded with satisfaction. Suddenly, he swung his sword, and the blade cut through Grandpa's neck, leaving a bloody wound. Grandpa didn't even have time to react. He just subconsciously hugged Grandma in his arms and slowly closed his eyes.
The next moment, Uncle Qin's sword pierced grandma's body. Grandma's body shook and she didn't move anymore.
Ji Xingzhi and Su Yang both widened their eyes, not because of fear, nor because of cruelty.
There are many ways to deal with the bandits, and although they chose the fastest one, it was also the stupidest one, which made Uncle Qin dissatisfied and led to the innocent sacrifice of their grandparents.
Ji Xingzhi had seen this kind of scene many times in her life. Su Yang was born in the extraordinary Su family, so she was naturally no exception. It was just the first time for them to witness Uncle Qin's cruelty.
These bandits were hired by Uncle Qin. After Uncle Qin took the bandits away, Ji Xingzhi and Su Yang did their best to drive the bodies of the two elders to Dongping along with the ox cart.
Although they didn't know the way, fortunately they were close to Dongping County. Someone passed by nearby and asked for directions. They soon arrived in Dongping County.
A delicate little girl and a handsome little boy drove a bullock cart carrying two corpses into Dongping County. Such a combination naturally attracted a lot of onlookers.
Using the old method, Ji Xingzhi and Su Yang sold themselves to bury their grandparents, and it went smoothly in front of a group of people.
Ji Xingzhi and Su Yang stood beside the ox cart, on which lay the peaceful bodies of their grandparents. The oxen were still eating the grass that Ji Xingzhi had placed on the ground.
There were also a few black words written on the ground: "Sell myself to bury grandpa and grandma." They were written with charcoal and were brought out by grandma to keep warm.
Logically, he should kneel down, but Ji Xingzhi, who was of noble status, was used to being an emperor. She found the gap between emperor and commoner hard to accept, and she could not kneel down at all.
Su Yang has always been arrogant. Asking her to kneel? Impossible.
To be honest, Ji Xingzhi was a little worried about the situation she and Su Yang would face after entering Hua Yihen's residence. Given their current appearances, how could they possibly be good servants serving their master? Especially since they were just bed-warmers...
There were a lot of people watching, pointing and talking, but no one was willing to pay for it.
When Ji Xingzhi and Su Yang thought that their "stall" plan had failed, several tall figures appeared in front of them.
He was a man in a brown brocade robe, about forty years old, with neatly combed hair, an ordinary face and a mustache. When he looked at Ji Xingzhi and Su Yang, he smiled strangely, and a gleam of light flashed in his shrewd and turbid eyes.
Behind the man were several people dressed as guards, all in uniform, with swords hanging from their waists. They followed their master closely and loyally protected him.
It's obvious that he is not an ordinary person with such a style.
"Take him away." The man looked at Ji Xingzhi and Su Yang for a long time, and finally said these two words.
Two guards led one each in front, and without the man's instructions, the other two guards set out to drive the ox cart, presumably to find a resting place for the two old men.
