Chapter 27 Mandarin Duck
In front of the farmyard, corpses of officers and soldiers were scattered all over the ground, and a large amount of blood almost gathered into a stream, infecting the earth.
Among the dozens of corpses of officers and soldiers, stood a man as tall as an iron tower. He was like a terrifying and ferocious beast, making people feel terrified.
The man's clothes were torn to pieces by the domineering energy, revealing his bronze skin and countless hideous scars hidden under his clothes. There were even some scars that looked fatal, but he managed to survive tenaciously. The criss-crossing scars seemed to show that the man had a tragic past.
Every time the beautiful woman saw the wounds on the other person's body and face, she felt extremely sad and distressed.
She was once the envy of everyone and she had a luxurious carriage with guards accompanying her when she went out, and she wore silk, satin, gold, silver and jewelry.
She and the man were childhood sweethearts, and the relationship between their two families was quite close.
In the eyes of others, they are a perfect match made in heaven.
Of course, they both felt the same way, so their relationship became closer and closer, and they often sought to confide in each other whenever they had the chance.
But later, the family behind the man suffered a sudden change, and suddenly everyone pushed the family down, and it quickly fell into decline.
Because the family behind the man was no longer of any use, the family behind her wanted to kick him away.
Not only did they forcibly break up their marriage, they also intended to use her as a bargaining chip to curry favor with the powerful and forced her to marry a court official as a concubine.
It sounds nice to call her a concubine, but in reality her status is lowly, only slightly better than a maid in the mansion.
Even in the eyes of dignitaries, it is nothing more than a toy that can be given away as a favor or thrown away at will.
She was unwilling to succumb to fate, so she found a man that night, and the pair of star-crossed lovers eloped and fled.
But they were two ordinary people, and they were caught by the families behind them before they could escape far. She was taken back, while the family behind the man was afraid of being implicated and expelled him from the house.
Many years later, the two met again.
The man changed from a handsome and elegant gentleman to a cruel and violent man with a burly and strong body, which scared everyone.
In order to protect the one she loved from persecution by her family, she was forced to agree to marry someone as a concubine. Later, she became sick with longing for him and became thinner and thinner, and her looks faded. As a result, the official became more and more dissatisfied with her. Whenever he was angry, he would beat and scold her to vent his dissatisfaction. Later, he even wanted to sell her to a brothel to torture her.
When we meet again.
One was as ferocious as a tiger, with scars all over his body, making him fearful;
There was a person with disheveled hair and purple body, looking like a female ghost.
Even though things and people have changed a lot and their appearance has changed a lot, they still recognized each other at first sight when they saw each other.
He made all those who had hurt her pay the price in blood. He cut off the shackles on her and led her out of the cage that bound her.
But since then, he has become a wanted criminal of the Great Yan Dynasty and has been repeatedly ambushed by powerful warriors from the Forbidden Guards.
In addition, he had offended many people in his efforts to become stronger while wandering around the world for several years. In order to avoid being hunted down by the Forbidden Guards and numerous enemies, the two had no choice but to hide in this secluded mountain to find peace and tranquility.
However, due to the arrival of Mo Ruyan and others, their peaceful days were disrupted again.
Whether they did it intentionally or unintentionally, their tracks have been exposed, and they will probably face many more troubles in the future.
When the beautiful woman first saw the Silver Armored Army coming to her house, she was startled and her eyes were full of alertness, because she thought their whereabouts had been exposed and Mo Ruyan and others were here to arrest them.
The reason she drugged them was that she was worried that they would reveal their whereabouts to the government after they left.
Now, what is coming has finally come, and it cannot be avoided after all.
The beautiful woman stepped forward. She looked at the bodies on the ground without showing any fear. Instead, she said softly with a hint of disgust and disdain, "Master, what are we going to do with these bodies? Are we going to find a place to bury them all?"
The bald man did not hesitate, shook his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry about them. Since the soldiers have already found us, others will soon find us here. We don't have much time, so hurry up and pack up and leave."
"What a pity. We finally have some peace for a while. Where are we going next?"
The bald man hesitated for a moment, a look of confusion in his eyes, and for a moment he seemed to have no idea where they should go.
Suddenly, he remembered what the officer had just said, that they came here to catch the accomplices of the rebels.
If the Silver Armor Army is an accomplice of the rebels, then doesn't it mean that King Tongwu Mo Shenjun is planning to rebel?
This means that the Great Yan Dynasty is about to fall into chaos.
The reputation of Lord Mo is known to everyone in the martial arts world.
It is rumored that half of the credit for the current Emperor of Great Yan being able to sit on that position can be attributed to King Tongwu.
Moreover, after helping the current Emperor of Great Yan to establish his empire, he rejected more favorable conditions and rewards and took the initiative to choose to go to the northern border town to guard the northern barbarians.
Courage and vision are all admirable.
If he rebels, the imperial court and the underworld will both be in a bloody storm. By then, there will probably not be many places in the entire Great Yan Dynasty where they can settle down.
If he were alone, he would not be afraid of the storm, but he had a wife by his side whom he wanted to protect with all his might.
He is a martial arts master, but his wife is an ordinary person, so he has to consider their future carefully.
What he had done had offended the families behind him and his wife. The massacre of imperial officials was an unforgivable capital crime. The forces behind them would not let them go easily, otherwise they would not have been hiding here and living a secluded life.
In this case, there seems to be no better choice before them.
"We're heading north."
"Um."
Hearing the man's decision, the beautiful woman agreed without any hesitation, then returned to the courtyard, quickly packed up and set off.
Since this team of officers and soldiers had not sent back any news for a long time, other officers and soldiers immediately sent people to look for them.
When others arrived here and saw the corpses and blood all over the ground, they were so frightened that their faces turned pale and their calves trembled.
"Quick, report this matter quickly, and let's go."
They didn't even dare to stay there for too long, as if they were afraid that the murderer was still nearby. They just took a quick look and then ran away in shame.
They were just following orders and searching for clues about the traitors.
Even if they really find it, it will be the credit from above. These officers and soldiers only get a few taels of silver a month as salary, so why would they risk their lives for it?
Afterwards, the city's forbidden guards arrived and conducted a detailed examination of the body.
"Preliminary judgment shows that the person who did it is a master. This method of killing is very similar to a case we investigated in recent years. I suspect it was done by the same person."
"If you kill someone, you must pay with your life. If you dare to kill our people, we will make them pay with their blood."
"The blood is still fresh and the body has been dead for no more than a day. They can't run far."
"Let's go back and inform the others to send reinforcements. The enemy is a master and his moves are ruthless and cruel. We may not be his match on our own."
"Walk."
