Chapter 65 The Truth
In the early morning, the camp, which should have been peaceful and tranquil, was now filled with people. In the crowd, Shi vomited blood, his face was as pale as paper, and he fell softly on the cold and hard ground.
Not far away, Jiang Xianchuan looked at her indifferently, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, with a hint of sarcasm and disdain: "Hmph, you want to use this to harm me? What a fantasy! Sorry, this little trick can't do anything to me, no way!" As he said that, he proudly shook the small and exquisite bottle in his hand.
At this moment, Gu Huaishan, who had been watching from afar, stood in a corner and took in the entire scene.
When he saw Jiang Xianchuan waving at him and calling him over, Gu Huaishan's heart shuddered suddenly, and he felt as if his limbs were pierced by millions of fine needles at the same time, and he became numb in an instant.
Despite this, he still endured the discomfort in his body and staggered and walked towards Jiang Xianchuan with difficulty. When he passed by Shi Yi, he glared at her fiercely, his eyes full of anger and disappointment.
When he got closer, Jiang Xianchuan handed the bottle of mysterious potion to Gu Huaishan without hesitation, and said pitifully: "Brother Huaishan, look, Shi Yi actually wanted to use this bottle of potion to poison me and Yubao! Tell me, how should we deal with her?"
Facing Jiang Xianchuan's smiling face, Gu Huaishan didn't know how to respond for a moment, and just remained silent for a long time. After a long while, he seemed to have made up his mind and slowly said: "According to...according to the rules, you should be expelled from the camp..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Yi, who was lying on the ground dying, suddenly jumped up like a madman and yelled at Gu Huaishan hysterically: "Gu Huaishan! How can you be so heartless? It was obviously you who coerced and induced me to do this! Now you want to put all the blame on me, you are simply a despicable villain!"
Her voice was shrill and piercing, echoing throughout the camp and making people's hair stand on end. However, Gu Huaishan seemed indifferent to Shi Yi's accusation, and still stood there with a gloomy face without saying a word.
"Shi Yi, stop pretending. Do you think everyone is a despicable person like you? Brother Huaishan is an upright battalion commander. How could he do such a thing? But you have always been dissatisfied with me and Yubao, and have been against us everywhere." When the people in the camp heard this, they were furious and began to whisper to each other, wondering how credible Shi Yi's words were.
Seeing that everyone was skeptical, she raised her lips slightly, revealing a sly smile. She took out a small and exquisite recorder from her backpack, shook it gently in her hand, and said, "Huh, you don't believe it, right? Well then! Let me hear if this is true!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Yi pressed the play button on the recorder without hesitation. In an instant, a clear conversation came out -
"Shi Yi, you must use this potion to kill Jiang Xianchuan and Li Lingyu within tomorrow. They are now a serious threat to my position. Remember, if they don't die, you will be the one to die."
This recording was like a thunder, exploding in the crowd. When the recording ended, the whole camp fell into silence. Everyone stared at Gu Huaishan with wide eyes and astonishment.
Gu Huaishan was already sweating profusely and his face was as pale as paper. Although it was true that he had given the bottle of poison to Shi Yi, he had never expected that Shi Yi would trick him into doing such a thing, and the fatal recording made him speechless.
Just when Gu Huaishan hadn't come to his senses yet, Li Lingyu rushed forward and put the long knife in his hand against his neck in an instant. The cold blade was so close to his skin that Gu Huaishan couldn't help but shiver.
"Brother Huaishan, it's you." Jiang Xianchuan turned his head sharply, staring at the so-called culprit in front of him with a sharp gaze. He saw that Gu Huaishan's face turned red and he shouted anxiously: "It's not me! Someone must have wanted to slander me!"
Jiang Xianchuan frowned and asked suspiciously, "Brother Huaishan, there shouldn't be any superpowers in our camp who can change the content of other people's words, right?" After hearing this, Gu Huaishan, who was already feeling a little guilty, panicked and stammered, "It's Zheng..."
Before he could finish his words, a dull sound was heard. It turned out that Qi Xiaoyao kicked the tied-up Zheng Jun like a ball. Zheng Jun fell to the ground in a panic, and the ropes on his body became even tighter.
"You'd better tell the truth." Qi Xiaoyao glared fiercely at Zheng Jun who was lying on the ground and trembling.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Zheng Jun was so frightened that he had no intention of resisting. He stood up and trembled in front of everyone, revealing Gu Huaishan's vicious plan to kill Jiang Xianchuan and Li Lingyu.
As the truth gradually surfaced, the people present cast extremely disappointed eyes on Gu Huaishan. As for Gu Huaishan, seeing his conspiracy exposed, his face turned pale, his lips trembled, and he seemed to want to make a few excuses, but Li Lingyu did not give him any chance at all.
With a flash of cold light, Li Lingyu raised his sword and chopped off Gu Huaishan's sinful head in an instant. Blood splashed everywhere, and the scene was bloody and terrifying. Then, Li Lingyu mercilessly swung his sword at Zheng Jun, ending his life cleanly and neatly.
"Oh, they're finally dead." Jiang Xianchuan looked at the two people who were already dead on the ground, took a long breath, then reached out to help up Shi Yi, who was also covered in blood.
"This blood tastes really weird." Shi Yi said with a lingering fear as he wiped the sticky blood off his face with his sleeve.
"Thank you for your hard work." Jiang Xianchuan patted Shi Yi's shoulder and comforted him.
"It's okay, it's okay." Shi Yi forced a smile and responded.
Everyone started talking again, completely unaware of what had happened, and Jiang Xianchuan explained everything.
It turned out that Shi Yi told Jiang Xianchuan about Gu Huaishan's plan through a recorder. Jiang Xianchuan then used computer AI to synthesize a voice clip of Gu Huaishan and asked Shi Yi to play it in public as evidence. He then asked Qi Xiaoyao to capture Zheng Jun to prevent them from having any tricks up their sleeves.
At the moment when Gu Huaishan took his last breath, the camp's power system seemed to have its soul sucked out and came to an abrupt halt. The camp, which was originally brightly lit and full of vitality, suddenly fell into darkness and silence.
Without Gu Huaishan, the backbone of the camp, people began to feel panicky and fear spread rapidly like a plague. Confusion and helplessness were written on everyone's face.
In this chaos, someone shouted, "I support Captain Jiang to be the battalion commander!" This shout seemed to have ignited the fuse, and soon people echoed, "Yes, Captain Jiang is the most suitable person!" For a while, voices calling for Jiang Xianchuan to be the battalion commander rose one after another.
However, facing the enthusiastic recommendation of the crowd, Jiang Xianchuan seemed very calm. He waved his hand and refused without hesitation: "No, I don't want to be the battalion commander, but I have to deal with a lot of problems." Jiang Xianchuan was not moved by these people's insistence. He knew in his heart that the most important thing now was not who would be the battalion commander, but how to solve the problem at hand as soon as possible.
At this moment, Qi Xiaoyao, who had been silent all the time, sighed deeply. He slowly squatted down and carefully took out Gu Huaishan's stopped heart.
Then, he used his unique ability to wrap the dirty heart tightly with ice, muttering to himself: "I have to find someone..." Before he finished speaking, Jiang Xianchuan next to him shouted in horror: "No, no, no, eating dirty heart is really too disgusting!"
Hearing this, Qi Xiaoyao shook his head helplessly. At this moment, Jiang Xianchuan pulled Qi Xiaoyao aside.
He mysteriously took out a lot of solar panels from his own space and said to Qi Xiaoyao: "You just need to find a few people to choose a suitable place to install these solar panels. This will temporarily solve the power problem." After that, he patted Qi Xiaoyao on the shoulder, his eyes revealing determination and trust.
