Almost all of the guards in the manor were killed in battle, and the few who survived were seriously injured and fell ill.
Most of the maids, servants, and other servants died; only those who had chosen good places to hide until Zhao Huan returned survived.
Zhao Huan, along with Lian Zhongyi, He Zhi, and Yang Taozhi, searched for the Zhao Cheng brothers in the backyard.
"Cheng'er!"
"Act!"
"Big Brother! Third Brother!"
"Zhao Yi!!"
"Where are you?!"
Zhao Huan suddenly stopped, punched the tree trunk, sending leaves scattering, and roared, "Wu Zhijian, I swear to kill you!!!"
Yang Taozhi asked, "Mr. Lian, did you see Acheng when the enemy attacked?"
Lian Zhongyi said, "After you left this morning, Zhao Yi has been with his brothers in the backyard. Let's search again. Since we didn't find their bodies, they might be hiding in a place where they are not easily discovered."
Yang Taozhi looked around and her gaze fell on a girl who looked about ten years old. She said, "Chunqin, you usually spend a lot of time with the young masters. Have you seen them tonight?"
Chunqin was clearly surprised as well, and shook her head silently.
Lian Zhongyi squatted down in front of Chunqin and asked, "The Third Young Master and the Young Master love playing hide-and-seek the most. Do you know where they like to hide when they play hide-and-seek?"
Chunqin thought about it seriously for a while, then pouted and said, "Wine... wine cellar."
It was already daylight when the group arrived at the wine cellar and saw several corpses lying outside. Looking up, they saw the wooden door of the wine cellar.
The wooden door was half-open, now blood red, with traces of blood trickling down the wood grain.
Drip, drip...
Sensing the aura of death emanating from within, Zhao Huan felt a chill in his heart and staggered toward the wooden door.
"Boss, Third Brother, are you inside?"
"Father, I'm here!"
Zhao Huan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's the third brother's voice!"
He quickly ran to the wooden door and shouted, "The bad guys have all been killed! Come out quickly!"
"Father, I can't get out!"
"Can't get out?"
Zhao Huan paused for a moment, glanced back at the crowd, and then pushed open the wooden door.
As the wooden door opened, sunlight streamed in.
The scene before their eyes shocked everyone outside the wooden door!
