Moreover, she was sweating a lot after exercising, especially because her loose clothes were blowing and freezing her back. She shivered and had to quickly put on the cloak.
When I ran to the carriage, I didn't rush to put on my clothes. I got into the carriage first, closed the carriage door and took out the spiritual stone lamp. I put a towel into my clothes and wiped the sweat. Then I picked up the child and felt that there was no urine. , just shook it twice.
In fact, the child almost stopped crying as soon as he saw someone coming in, he just hummed, and he soon became obedient after being held.
For a child of three to four months old, he is really well-behaved. He should also know that he has left his mother.
When she saw the child turning around to look for it, she prepared to feed the child some water, but the child stopped drinking after one sip. It seemed that he was not thirsty and wanted to feed.
But the milk still needed to be warmed up, so I peed him first, and sure enough, he peed a lot.
She felt that she was getting better and better at raising children, and she would definitely not be numb if she had children in the future.
While breastfeeding the baby, I listened to what was going on outside. When the baby fell asleep, there was no result from the trial outside, so it was not a big deal to waste time here in the middle of the night.
Although I looked around with my spiritual consciousness, I saw that the other party had no accomplices coming back, but if this continues, I won't be able to sleep tonight. It's been a long time and I don't know what else will happen.
He put the child back under the quilt and asked Yuanbao to lie beside him and take care of him. When he saw that he was about to wake up, Yuanbao quickly imitated Qingyan and patted him gently with his tail.
Qingyan saw that the child fell asleep again under its patting, so she put on her cloak and went out.
Qingyan glanced at the corpses and seriously injured people lying on the snow. It was estimated that those people would freeze to death in a while.
She walked to the Fang family's father and son, and saw that the leader lowered his head and said nothing. He seemed to have some backbone, and he was ready to die rather than surrender.
When Fang Zhengyi saw her coming, he said to her: "Is the child okay? Girl, please go to the car and have a rest. We are here."
Qingyan shook her head, "I'm already asleep, I'll let Yuan Bao watch. How is it? Did you ask anything?"
The Fang family father and son frowned at the man on the ground and shook their heads slightly.
Qingyan looked at the bloody man on the ground. He was indeed a desperado, and his bones were hard.
She rolled her eyes. Since she couldn't ask anything here, she might as well try others. She just saw a few people who had started to have fever. She might be able to ask something while the other person was confused.
She turned around and walked towards a person on the right who didn't look very tough-talking, holding a torch under the aisle.
He asked in a soft voice: "Who are you? Why don't you sleep at home when it's freezing cold at night, and why do you come here to ambush me?"
Seeing that he didn't respond at first, Qingyan asked again, this time in a lower voice, as if with a hint of confusion.
The man was already confused. Maybe Qingyan's voice was too bewitching, so he answered unknowingly.
"This... this is our territory, then... the people and things that pass by... are all ours. Kill the people, but leave the things... without leaving any future trouble..."
Qingyan kept guiding him and got a rough idea from the other party's intermittent answers.
She guessed that the adult he was talking about was the magistrate of Yongfeng County, and these people were actually from Wangkou Town.
Fang Zhengyi said that he had been to Yongfeng County before. Although there was no curfew before, many people could not enter at night because there was only one inn in the city and it was easily full. Those who had no place to stay could only Can go further.
They had passed by here during the day before, so they didn't encounter this kind of situation. They didn't expect it to be so chaotic.
There must be someone among these people who is keeping an eye on them in the city. When they see someone coming with good conditions, they will come in advance to ambush them, and then kill people and steal goods.
According to this person, they did not rob large caravans or government military supplies, but only robbed some small merchants or passers-by who were alone or with few people. Because they did not leave anyone alive, they were never discovered.
This was the first time they had encountered such a powerful opponent. They were all knocked down in one encounter, and not a single one of them could escape.
Qingyan and the Fang family father and son looked at each other and saw the decision in each other's eyes. They directly threw these people into the ditch aside. The Fang family father and son, who were still angry, took care of themselves and temporarily buried them with snow.
After taking care of the blood stains and traces of fighting in this area, he got on the carriage and left.
They can't stay here any longer. If these people are just robbers, they will be done with them. It can be said that they have met the legitimate defense of the robbers.
But these people are obviously the county magistrate's people. If they stay here and are discovered, and alert the county magistrate, they might be arrested and killed on any charge.
There are only three of them. It is not a wise move to face the government. Even if Fang Zhengyi is a seventh-grade general, the same as the county magistrate, but now they have a mission and no soldiers in their hands, even a strong dragon cannot suppress it. A local snake.
It's better to leave quickly. These people are all dead and there is no one else around. The other party may not know who did it. They can come back later to investigate other issues slowly.
Because they all felt there was something wrong. If they were just town residents, they wouldn't be so bold even with the county magistrate behind them.
Moreover, their skills are not like that of farmers, their ruthlessness is like that of bandits, and their ambush methods and discipline are like that of officers and soldiers, so there must be something else among them.
Of course, these people are all dead now, and they will be discovered sooner or later, which will definitely arouse the vigilance of the county magistrate, but there is nothing that can be done. The three of them have a child, so they are really not suitable for taking risks.
Even if she said she was leaving, Qingyan would not give up secret investigation. If she really waited for others to investigate, the cucumbers and vegetables would probably be cold, and even if there was any evidence, all the evidence would be destroyed.
Anyway, she and Chou Chou have spiritual consciousness, and they can explore within the range covered by their spiritual consciousness. Maybe they can make some major discoveries.
When they walked to the next town and checked into a temporary inn that had been converted into a residential building, Qingyan found nothing at the magistrate's house, but Chou Chou did make a major discovery there.
Chou Chou: "Yanyan, you must have never imagined that the entire people in Wangkou Town are actually soldiers from the previous dynasty!"
Qingyan was checking the magistrate's study with her spiritual consciousness. She was feeling a little dizzy when she was looking at it, but when she heard Chou Chou's voice transmission, she suddenly became energetic.
"What's the situation? Didn't all the soldiers of the previous dynasty surrender to our dynasty or become bandits and were surrounded and suppressed? Why are they still hiding in a town?"
Chou Chou: "I found cellars and secret rooms in the yards of many houses in that town. The cellars are half normal and half hidden. In addition to food, jewelry, silver, and weapons, the cellars are stored there.
I also saw a piece of paper in the secret room of the mayor's house, which was a transfer document from the previous dynasty. It turned out that the mayor used to be the garrison general of Yongfeng County. Later, when the previous dynasty failed, he took his men directly They secretly killed all the people in Wangkou Town, and they lived there as those people. "
Qingyan asked doubtfully: "How do you know the latter? These are not written on the documents, are they?"
Chou Chou: "There is a slope in the north of the town. The bottom is full of bones. They have been dead for more than ten years. How could so many people die at the same time?"
Qingyan frowned and thought: "In other words, the mayor is the one behind the scenes, and the county magistrate is only on the surface to provide them with convenience? Then it means that the people who ambushed us before are capable and ruthless. It makes sense, I guess the person the person is talking about is not the county magistrate but the town mayor.
They occupied the town and did not live a good life. Instead, they secretly robbed passers-by. It could not be to support their families. There must be some conspiracy.
But this kind of petty quarrel is definitely not for rebellion. To start a rebellion, it will take many years and months to rob, which is far less rewarding than robbing a large caravan or official bank. What is it for? "
Chou Chou: "Don't you think that the other party just wants to accumulate some money to live a comfortable life? Maybe the other party has no other purpose. It's just that his perverted subordinates like to kill people, and then rob some money to spend."
Qingyan rolled her eyes, "Do you believe this? So many people are lying in the snow in the cold just to kill people?
Even if we have two carriages, we don't necessarily have money, right? It's so laborious and laborious to rob two carriages, and adding a little silver won't be enough to divide the spoils, right? "
Chou Chou shrugged, it was just a guess. Who knew what the purpose of these people was? It can't search the other party's memory.
Although it can search for some memories of the remaining souls, it is like a black bird swallowing other soul beads or inner elixirs. This method does not work for living people, so I can only make random guesses here.
Or you can keep monitoring the other party to see if the other party can tell it on his own, but this is probably unlikely. If the other party was so careless, he would have died ten or eight times.
Unless there is a crime, arrest those people and conduct a town-wide search. Those things should be found. If not, they can also help and let Chou Chou do some small actions.
The more than thirty people they killed today were almost half of the strong labor force in Wangkou Town. The rest were mostly women and children, their families.
In Wangkou Town, except for the mayor, there are elderly people in his family, who are the parents of the mayor and the county magistrate. The others should be wives who were married later, and their children are not very old, the oldest is only ten years old, so don't look at it. There are many people in the town, but there are only middle-aged people and children, not many elderly people.
This is also very strange. Maybe they are also afraid of being discovered by outsiders, so they find ways to deny outsiders entry into the town.
The fee-based checkpoints like that one are probably not just for making money, but most likely to prevent people from entering.
In addition, there is no inn in the town and the residents are not welcome, so there will definitely be no outsiders staying there, and they will be safer.
Even those people probably didn't marry wives from nearby families. Otherwise, if their parents' families were nearby, they would inevitably have to come and go frequently, and sooner or later they would find something out.
In this day and age, a daughter-in-law who is married far away from her family will almost never be able to see her again for several years.
There are also many people who are fleeing the famine and buying people back directly, so they don't have to worry. There are those whose families are dead, and they can just marry an orphan girl without fear of her exposing themselves.
Wives and children are sometimes impossible to guard against, especially the person next to you. If you are a little more careful, you may find it. Even if you are dull, you will not be able to detect some clues over the years.
And if the other party has no way out, they will most likely join. After all, if you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, and if you marry a dog, follow the dog. Not only will the other party not tell them, but after they have a child, in order to protect themselves and their children, they will try their best to help cover it up.
Qingyan lay on the bed and thought about it for a long time. She felt that this matter had to be brought out. She wanted to tell the Fang family and his son, but how to say this? You can't say that she has spiritual consciousness and can detect it from a distance, right?
But if you don't say anything, these people staying here will always be a hidden danger. If you don't say anything else, it is not a pity to die if they just rob money and kill people.
If these people were living in seclusion there and not doing evil, she would definitely not care about them. But these people are obviously restless and often kill people and buy goods on the roadside. Then the whole Wangkou Town is also treating them unfairly.
Hundreds of lives. If she hadn't been with the Fang family and his son, she would have wanted to do something for heaven. Chou Chou said that killing such people only has merit and no sin.
This time they killed some people, but who can guarantee that the remaining people will not continue to do these things? Now that we have encountered it, of course we have to take care of it.
After discussing it with Chou Chou, Chou Chou didn't have any objections. It didn't pay attention to Qing Yan before and just went there through the space to absorb its resentment.
Although it does not constitute a mass grave, it can still be regarded as a mass grave. Not only the bodies of the residents of the town, but also the bodies of passers-by killed by them were buried there. It can be said that it is a place full of resentment. .
I just don’t know if those people specifically looked for someone to see it. That place is really a good place to suppress the soul. Once buried there, until the soul dissipates, it will not become a ghost to avenge itself.
If there weren't too many of them, there wouldn't be any resentment.
So it came back after they had finished solving the problem. The scene and the results of the interrogation were all described by Qingyan.
Chou Chou: "I think you can use words to guide them to think about problems in the town. When the time comes, as long as the Fang family and his son find problems, they can investigate.
Of course, we have to emphasize that the entire town is not a good person, and ask them to pay attention and send more people there. As long as they go there, although the cellars and secret rooms seem to be very strict, if they really want to search, they can actually find them.
After all, theirs were not designed by some mechanism master, they were just dug by themselves at home. As long as they find the entrance, they can check it accurately.
During this period of time, I can focus my attention on the other party. If there is any change in the other party, I will put away all the things in the secret room and wait until the person leaves before putting them back.
If these people find that it would be better if they all ran away, I can let them die directly..."
