Chapter 4 Killing a few jailers is not too much
Huo Kaicheng had never seen such a big crow before. It looked like an eagle.
The cry was shrill and miserable, and its wings were about an arm's length as it swooped down like an arrow.
Huo Kaicheng was frightened by the scene and had to retreat repeatedly.
But he, Lord Huo, was frightened like this by a crow. He really couldn't afford to lose face!
Out of consideration for the situation, he had to draw his sword and fight.
No one noticed that Lu Wanyin pressed down hard with her hands hidden in her sleeves.
The sharp sword swung through the wind, but the crow was not afraid at all. It flapped its wings and circled around Huo Kaicheng, surrounded by a strong murderous aura.
Huo Kaicheng was terrified and quickly ordered: "Assemble, assemble!"
The soldiers quickly formed a human wall to protect Huo Kaicheng.
Now that his situation was safe, Huo Kaicheng calmed down considerably. "The Xie family members are already prisoners, destined for death. Putting them in front of us will help them atone for their sins and accumulate virtue in the world."
The Xie family had a brave and fearless person who cursed loudly: "Damn you, Huo Kaicheng, you will get your comeuppance sooner or later!"
Lu Wanyin glanced at the crowd and thought, this kid is really brave.
The situation was so chaotic, but he still started cursing.
But he is brave but not wise, a reckless man.
Huo Kaicheng was furious and drew his sword to kill him.
Before he could even raise his sword, the crow suddenly swooped down and stabbed its sharp, thick beak into his shoulder blade.
The skin and flesh were torn apart in an instant.
"ah--!!!"
Huo Kaicheng let out a sharp explosion, his scream even more shrill than the crow's, and he quickly swung his sword to kill the crow.
Lu Wanyin watched from a distance and sneered.
But this is far from enough.
In his previous life, Xie Jingci ended up as a disabled person, and later lived his life like a ghost, neither human nor ghost. Huo Kaicheng often made slanderous remarks against him.
If he died today, it would be too easy for him.
Fortunately, her ability to taming beasts was awakened, otherwise Huo Kaicheng would have to continue to live happily.
Lu Wanyin curled her fingers together, put them to her lips and blew gently.
The crow received the command, drew out its beak, and circled into the sky.
A big hole suddenly appeared on Huo Kaicheng's shoulder blade, blood spurted out, and his white bones were exposed, with scattered flesh on them.
It looks particularly terrifying.
“No—Ah—!!!”
His screams resounded through the sky.
The soldiers were fighting with the crows, and if they were distracted for a moment they would lose their lives, so they had no time to care about Huo Kaicheng.
The crow leader seemed to have lost his patience. He dodged the soldiers' attacks, swooped down, and grabbed Huo Kaicheng's hair.
In an instant, more than a dozen crows gathered together, picked up the man and lifted him up.
Huo Kaicheng was trembling and could no longer speak complete sentences.
He begged for mercy with broken syllables: "Don't...it hurts, I can't bear it..."
Unfortunately, this crow is a beast and it only obeys the orders of the beastmaster.
Lu Wanyin looked at the crow with satisfaction and conveyed the order in her heart: "Torture it well and give it a snack tonight."
The crows were instantly energized, flying up and down with Huo Kaicheng in their mouths.
Sometimes it dives and sometimes it circles.
Huo Kaicheng screamed in pain, but after a while, he tilted his head and passed out.
With Lu Wanyin's command, Crow would not let him die so quickly.
They carried him to the stream and threw him into the water from mid-air.
The stream water was icy cold, and Huo Kaicheng suddenly woke up. He immediately flapped his wings to escape, but was caught by the crows again by his arms.
The sharp claws dug into his humerus, making a crackling sound.
That was the sound of flesh being torn apart.
Steaming blood dripped from the air, as if it was raining blood.
Huo Kaicheng's screams resounded through the sky.
Lu Wanyin was very satisfied with the little crows' actions.
She turned to look at the soldiers and called out to disperse the crows.
They just follow orders and just need to be taught a lesson.
After the crows dispersed, some soldiers lay on the ground groaning, some were covered in dust and their clothes were torn. In short, none of them were intact.
Almost everyone in the Xie family was safe and sound, except Lin Wenbin and Zhou.
Lin Wenbin's hair was disheveled, he was covered in scars, and his body was covered in blood. He was in no better condition than Huo Kaicheng.
However, Lu Wanyin spared his life. After all, there was still a long time to come, so he could be tortured slowly.
He had done so many immoral things in his previous life, so it's not too much for her to do justice for him now.
Just when everyone was still in shock, the huge crow came back.
It hovered in the air and dropped Huo Kaicheng's body.
"Bang!"
Everyone retreated back, and the brave ones who stepped forward to take a look were so scared that they fell to the ground.
Strictly speaking, it can no longer be called a "corpse", but a mass of meat paste.
A pile of flesh where you can't tell the facial features or limbs.
The soldiers were terrified and panicked, and started talking at once.
"It's very rare for crows to attack humans."
"It has never been recorded in historical documents, let alone any similar folk rumors."
"Crows are always an ominous sign. Could it be that the Xie family..."
…
"Everyone, don't panic, just listen to my orders."
The person giving the orders was Huo Kaicheng's deputy general, Feng Ji. He didn't seem to have been seriously injured and shouted with full energy, "Follow the original formation and escort the criminals in an orderly manner."
Feng Ji was not as prestigious as Huo Kaicheng, and after this incident, very few people obeyed his orders.
"I will report this to Your Majesty after entering the palace. Anyone who violates this will be punished along with their entire clan, and will be executed without mercy."
Lu Wanyin glanced at Feng Ji and found him to be a capable deputy general.
It seems that she was too lenient just now.
Under Feng Ji's command, the escort team was reorganized.
However, these soldiers were badly injured and could no longer be aggressive, so the group arrived at the prison safely.
There are many criminals in the Xie family, and the charges have not been brought yet, so it is naturally not determined in which prison they will be held.
The prison guard was a man who knew how to treat people based on their situation. When he saw Feng Ji's attitude, he knew that he had to "serve" these people well.
In order to treat everyone equally, he simply locked up all the Xie family members in one cell.
The others, dressed as servants, were placed in the other two cells.
The cell where Guan Xie's family was held was dark and damp, with foul-smelling slop seeping from the walls. There were several dead rats in the corner, emitting a foul odor.
The old lady couldn't stand the environment and felt dizzy, leaning against the wall and gasping for breath, her face turning purple.
The old lady was the only person in the Xie family, besides Xie Jingci, who had shown kindness to Lu Wanyin.
He is also the only one who truly feels sorry for Xie Jingci.
She couldn't bear to see anything happen to the old woman.
"Lord Officer."
Lu Wanyin called the prison guard and asked, "The old lady is old and can't stand this kind of environment. Can we move her to a cell with a better environment?"
The jailer snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "You're still switching? Do you think this is an inn?"
"The Xie family has lost power, and Xie Jingci is plotting rebellion. This is a serious crime. You can expect the entire clan to be executed."
After saying this, the jailer locked the door and left without looking back.
But before he took two steps, a snake as thick as a bowl came out from nowhere and hissed as it spit out its tongue.
The prison guard had never seen such a horrifying thing before and screamed in fear.
In an instant, the poisonous snake scurried to the jailer's feet and climbed up his legs.
