He knew he couldn't resist now; if he did, the wound would probably tear open even wider!
Just when he was about to give up, a familiar voice suddenly rang in his ears, "Stop!"
What are you all doing gathered around here?
Upon hearing that familiar voice, the people scattered in all directions!
They quickly stepped aside, clearing the way in the middle, and bowed very respectfully to Commandant Qi!
"Greetings, Commandant!"
Qi Duwei ignored them and stepped forward to help Bian Du, who was covered in wounds, up from the ground!
"Bian Du! Are you alright?"
With the help of Qi Duwei, Bian Du managed to stand up!
He forced a smile and shook his head: "I'm fine! I did do a lot of wrong things before! It's only right that my brothers are blaming me!"
"If hitting me can vent their anger, I'm willing to let them keep hitting me!"
"However, I heard that you suffered some internal injuries. I wonder if you have taken good care of yourself?"
"It's so good that you're back safe and sound!"
Those around rolled their eyes indignantly upon hearing this!
"You talk a good game every day!"
"Who said you're my brother?"
"Ever since you picked up the whip and started lashing our bodies!"
"We're no longer brothers!"
"Exactly! We can't be brothers with you!"
Commander Qi said angrily, "All of you, shut up!"
"They're a bunch of pig-brains!"
"Minghao has already told me what happened!"
"Even though the matter of Pang Dawei's murder has been suppressed, haven't you all used your brains to think about it?"
"Why did all of Pang Da's group die, but Bian Du escaped alive? Was it just because he was lucky? Or did he have an extra life?"
Suddenly, someone in the crowd muttered quietly, "What else could it be? It's because of a dispute over the spoils! There must be some internal strife among them!"
"His escape must have been a coincidence!"
"Or perhaps this traitor not only betrayed us, but also betrayed Pang Da and his ilk!"
Qi Duwei's eyes were like those of a hawk, and he immediately locked onto one person in the crowd!
He took two steps forward and pulled the person out of the crowd!
"If I remember correctly, your name is Zhang Fan! Speak up if you have something to say. What's the point of muttering in the crowd?"
Zhang Fan said indignantly, "So what if I said it? Does that mean I can't even talk about it if I do it?"
Commandant Qi sneered, "Very well! Men, drag him out and kill him!"
"Anyone who disrupts morale like this will not be spared by Qi Fang!"
Zhang Fan looked at Commandant Qi with surprise, "Sir, what do you mean by this?"
"How did I disrupt morale? Wasn't I telling the truth?"
"Besides, I'm Uncle Mo's nephew! Have you forgotten?"
Commandant Qi said coldly, "I don't care whose people you are! Once you're in this camp, you're under my command!"
"Stop thinking your little schemes!"
“I’m telling you! Everything Bian Du has done is for you, and for me too. Otherwise, why do you think you’re still alive?”
"Bian Du was responsible for Pang Da's death! If you used your brains, you'd know why he attacked you before!"
"What does it mean to gain trust? Don't you understand?"
Is the brain dead?
At this moment, Wu Shui also stepped forward and recounted how he had attempted to assassinate the prefect that night!
Those present who were unaware of the inside story were in an uproar!
It turns out they misunderstood Bian Du!
Looking back now, it seems that everything did indeed have a pattern!
Moreover, Mo Shu and the others were originally supposed to be beheaded, but it seems that Bian Du whispered something in Pang Da's ear, which is why they were spared and instead tied to wooden stakes outside to be tortured!
And because of this, his brothers held a deep grudge against him!
But it also saved their lives!
They had suspected this side before, but Zhang Fan kept nagging them about how vicious this side was, which made them all united in their hatred!
That's when they realized how incredibly stupid they had been!
Commander Qi never expected that his men, who seemed so shrewd usually, would be so stupid at the crucial moment.
This is a classic case of being sold out and then having to count the money for the seller!
He even began to wonder if he had protected these people too well, so that they would be completely exposed as soon as something happened!
He could only be thankful that Lin Ru didn't have any wicked intentions! Otherwise, these people wouldn't even know how they died!
He eventually handed Zhang Fan over to Uncle Mo to deal with, and warned him that this was the last time!
Bian Du was personally escorted to the camp by him!
Then we started making arrangements for what to do next!
Ji Wenxuan has now completely taken over the duties of the prefect!
Although a few officials came to cause him trouble, Wu Ling and his men subdued them all!
Then he posted a notice outside!
The gist of it is that Prefect Shi hired someone to kill the Prefect, hoping to take the position for himself. However, the Prefect's wife discovered this and killed Prefect Shi.
When the wife of the Prefect learned that her husband had died in the Prefect's mansion, she went to search for him and perished together with the Prefect's wife!
They also tried their best to appease the people below!
Make them stay home obediently, keep the doors and windows closed, and don't go out!
If you hear any unusual noises, don't panic!
The government is with them!
While everything outside was incredibly busy, Lin Ru was enjoying a peaceful and serene time inside her space!
Suddenly, a loud bang echoed through the space!
Lin Ru opened her eyes and looked around to see what was going on. When she opened her eyes, she found a large, fluffy white thing blocking her view!
When she looked up, she saw a huge white head! It looked at its owner with bright, sparkling eyes, and then licked her face with its tongue!
Lin Ru felt ticklish from the tickling, and she laughed as she hugged Xiao Yue's head, "My goodness, you've grown so big!"
"How can it grow so fast?"
Xiaoyue affectionately nuzzled her face, "Master! I've advanced! I'm now a second-tier spirit beast! I can help you fight bad guys!"
Lin Ru was happy to see it grow, but it was growing way too fast!
"You're way too big! You're ten times the size of a normal wolf! Can you shrink a little? Otherwise, I'm afraid to take you out!"
Xiaoyue was somewhat confused, "I am King Xiaoyue! Of course, I am not comparable to those little wolf cubs!"
"However, since Master says I should shrink, I can reluctantly agree!"
"As long as Master is happy!"
Lin Ru smiled and patted its head!
