Chapter 149 The most powerful weapon in the world
Early Mao hour.
It was less than an hour before dawn, but it was also the darkest time.
The carriage with closed curtains shuttled through the alleys. Even the driver had a black cloth covering his face, so his appearance could not be seen clearly.
Such a carriage is quite strange, but if someone could see the scene inside the carriage through the curtains, they would probably vomit gastric juice immediately.
Eight bloody corpses took up half of the space, and a man and a woman were sitting next to the pile of corpses, one with a thoughtful look on her face, and the other with an expression of extreme fear.
The two men didn't speak.
Ning Yuke was unable to speak because of the acupuncture points pressed, while Wei Changtian was thinking about how to explain the current scene to her.
It is definitely impossible to hide it.
It was estimated that by daybreak, the news of the tragic massacre of Prince Shun's family would spread throughout Shuzhou City, and then spread to the entire Daning, just like the killing of Liu Yuanshan by himself, and eventually became known to everyone.
What Wei Changtian was really hesitant about was whether or not to tell Ning Yuke who the real culprit behind the scenes was.
"Princess, I can't untie your acupuncture points yet, but you must listen carefully to what I say next."
Looking up at Ning Yuke, whose eyes were filled with fear, Wei Changtian said, "Just now a group of assassins broke into the palace. Prince Ning Qing, including the two princesses, are all dead as expected."
"In other words, except for you, Princess, everyone else in the Shun Palace should have been killed by assassins."
Wei Changtian's tone was very calm, but he did not really have no sympathy or pity for Ning Yuke.
All relatives died overnight. The word "severe" cannot describe such a blow.
If I have to say it, maybe "the end of the world" would be more appropriate.
Wei Changtian's parents were alive and well in his previous life, and they were still the same after he traveled through time, so it might be difficult for him to empathize with Ning Yuke's feelings at this moment.
But this doesn't mean that he really doesn't understand this kind of despair.
The reason why he behaves so indifferent now is mainly because the situation forces him, and Ning Yuke, to have a relatively calm attitude to face what may happen next.
Moving his eyes downward to avoid Ning Yuke's gaze, Wei Changtian took a deep breath and continued speaking.
"Princess, I know you must be desperate at this moment, but if you still want to live, please listen to me."
"I know who is the mastermind behind this group of assassins, and I can tell you."
"But I'll make it clear to you in advance that it's best if you don't know this person's identity right now."
"The most important thing for you right now is to save your own life first."
"The assassins don't know you are here, but they will never give up. They will definitely do their best to search for you."
"If they find you, I don't need to tell you what will happen to you."
"Princess."
Wei Changtian paused here, as if he was making some kind of decision.
After a moment, he raised his head again, looked directly into Ning Yuke's eyes that seemed to have lost their souls, and said softly:
"Princess, since I have already pulled you back to the car, I might as well help you one more time."
"I can keep you safe for the time being, but Princess, you must obey my arrangements completely during this time."
"Of course, if Princess has no such intention, or no longer wants to live alone in this world, then just pretend I didn't say that."
"I will untie your acupuncture points now. Please don't make any noise, Princess."
“.”
After saying all that needed to be said, Wei Changtian didn't waste any time and immediately reached out and pressed several acupoints on Ning Yuke, while holding the latter's arm.
"Sir, is what you said true?"
This was the first sentence Ning Yuke uttered after she recovered her language ability.
Wei Changtian didn't answer, just nodded.
“.”
Ning Yuke stared at Wei Changtian blankly, her eyes lifeless and filled with infinite emptiness.
She seemed as if her soul had been hollowed out, her lips trembling subconsciously as if she was sobbing silently.
"well"
Wei Changtian sighed and wanted to say something to comfort her like "I am sorry for the loss", but he didn't say it in the end.
The carriage was still galloping, and in the strong pungent smell of blood, the two men sat facing each other in silence for a long time.
The invisible moon has set in the western part of the night sky, and the last ray of silver light is trying to illuminate the darkness before dawn.
The moonlight may know that no matter how hard it tries, it will never be able to illuminate the night like the sun.
But it still stubbornly rises and falls day after day, and has been doing so every day for thousands of years.
There was silence in the carriage until Ning Yuke suddenly fell to her knees in a pool of blood, looking up at Wei Changtian.
"Master Wei, I want to live."
“.”
Wei Changtian was stunned and subconsciously wanted to help, but his hand suddenly stopped halfway.
He looked into those eyes and saw an emotion in them that he had never seen in Ning Yuke's eyes before.
Hatred.
A quarter of an hour later.
The black carriage slowly stopped at a deserted wild lake. Wei Changtian jumped off the carriage and looked around cautiously.
They definitely won't be able to leave the city with the corpse.
This is one of the few remote places in Shuzhou City, making it convenient to dispose of the carriage and the bodies on it.
The big chestnut horse pulling the cart beside him was panting heavily, but the next moment the horse's head flew high into the air with a "puff".
Wei Changtian didn't say anything either. After killing the horse, he immediately returned to the car with Zhang San and started "unloading the goods", preparing to deal with all the clues that might leave traces here.
The simplest way is to burn them all with fire, but this would make too much noise and the people around might notice something unusual.
So I can only use the "stupid" method: "Plop, plop."
After dumping several dismembered bodies by the lake, Zhang San suggested in a low voice: "Sir, let me take care of the bodies. I'm an expert."
"???"
Wei Changtian glanced at Zhang San, but did not refuse. He turned around and wanted to go back to the car to get the remaining part of the body.
However, when he turned his head, the scene he saw made him stunned for a moment.
In the night, Ning Yuke was seen holding the severed body and walking towards the lake step by step.
"this"
Zhang San also saw this scene at this time, so he ran over immediately.
"Princess, let me do it."
"No, no, I can do it."
It can be seen that Ning Yuke was still very scared about "holding a half-bloody corpse", but she gritted her teeth and forced herself not to fall down.
"Zhang San, come back."
Wei Changtian gave an order and then walked towards the carriage.
However, at the moment when his figure intersected with Ning Yuke's, Wei Changtian paused slightly.
He remembered a sentence from his previous life's book "The Three-Body Problem" -
Hatred is the most powerful weapon in the world.
"Hurry up."
