The mummy raised her hand and said to Zhang Ren, "It's me."
After the initial fright, Zhang Ren calmed down. Although the mummy didn't say who he was, his voice sounded very familiar.
However, looking at the tightly wrapped mummy, Zhang Ren still asked with great uncertainty: "Brother Thousand-faced Man?"
The mummy nodded slightly.
After confirming that the mummy was the Man with Thousand Faces, Zhang Ren walked around him to watch, and then asked, "How did you become like this?"
When he said this, the Thousand-Faced Man was obviously a little emotional. He raised his hand and hit his thigh, but accidentally touched the wound and grimaced in pain.
Zhang Ren shook his head and advised: "You are already like this, so you should do less activities."
The Thousand-Faced Man rubbed the injured area and said, "My injuries are not all caused by the Governor. He was too cruel and slashed me many times."
After hearing this, Zhang Ren felt a little sad. He and Thousand-faced Man were going to rob the law field, but first Qian-faced Man was stopped by Jiang Wei, and Zhang Ren was stopped by Luo Kedi. In the end, the robbery method The venue also failed to take place.
Zhang Ren sighed and sat back on the bed. He said softly: "The executions are over, right? Brother Qianmianren, how many innocent people died on the execution ground?"
The Thousand-Faced Man shook his head helplessly. He raised his finger and pointed outside the door and said, "How about you go and see for yourself."
Zhang Ren thought that the Thousand-Faced Man wanted him to go to the execution ground and have a look.
Although he didn't know how long he had been asleep, Zhang Ren thought about it. After killing so many people on the execution ground, even if the execution ground had been cleaned up, there would always be some traces left, such as the blood left on the bluestone.
Zhang Ren nodded and walked straight towards the door. He opened the door, and the sunlight from outside shone in. It felt a bit dazzling, so Zhang Ren closed his eyes directly.
Feeling the temperature of the sun, it failed to bring any warmth to Zhang Ren's heart, because this era was cold.
After a while, it felt like his eyes had adapted to the sunlight outside, so Zhang Ren slowly opened his eyes.
It's just that the courtyard that was supposed to be deserted is now overcrowded. There are people of all ages, men and women, some are combing their hair, some are enjoying the cool under the shade of the trees, some are chatting with each other, and some are sweeping the floor with Zhu Yunxi.
The only thing these people have in common is that they are all wearing prison uniforms.
When Zhang Ren looked at these people, these people also looked at Zhang Ren.
Zhang Ren felt somewhat in a trance and couldn't help but whisper to himself: "What is going on?"
"These are all people who were rescued from the execution ground."
The Thousand-faced Man said behind Zhang Ren with his hands behind his back. He learned the movement of holding his hands from Zhang Ren. Zhang Ren said that this action would make the whole person look very sophisticated. The Thousand-faced Man thought it was true, but now he was wrapped Like a mummy, the image is indeed a bit far from that of an expert.
Zhang Ren couldn't help turning his head and asked the Thousand-Faced Man: "Did you save all these people?"
The Thousand-Faced Man turned around, spread his hands, and said: "With my appearance, I'm lucky if I'm still alive. Do you think I can get rid of the Governor with my seriously injured body? And then I can defeat those executioners while bleeding." Guard? And finally bring all the rescued people back to your yard?"
….
Zhang Ren thought for a while and realized that this was indeed unrealistic.
Someone stepped out of the rescued crowd. He raised his hands towards Zhang Ren and bowed, "Thank you, Brother Ren, for saving our lives."
The other rescued people in the hospital all bowed to Zhang Ren.
The man who took the lead in speaking just now is named Cao Bing. He is the only son of Cao Zhen, Marquis of Jingchuan. He is similar in age to Zhang Ren. When they were studying in Zhan Shi's Mansion, they had a good relationship.
When it comes to standing in line, Cao Zhen, the Marquis of Jingchuan, has been advancing and retreating with Lan Yu, but Cao Bing has always stood by Zhu Yunwen because of Zhang Ren. When the prince Zhu Biao died, Cao Bing also tried his best to protect Zhu Yunwen. .
Zhang Ren looked at Cao Bing, feeling as if he was in another world. He asked, "Zhaobing, you said I saved you? I was seriously injured and fainted, how could I save you?"
"
Fried Pancake is a nickname given to Cao Bing by Zhang Ren. Most of his descendants would call Cao Bing by this title. Cao Bing himself didn't care much about it and thought it was a symbol of a good relationship.
Cao Bing said: "We thought we were certain to die, but no one expected that a group of men in black would appear on the execution ground. Those men in black were very skilled in martial arts and fought off the guards present. At that time, Eunuch Jia and Grandma Sun were also there. They wanted to stop the men in black, but unexpectedly two more men in black shot out from the crowd. Their martial arts were even better than Eunuch Jia and Grandma Sun. They actually killed Eunuch Jia and Grandma Sun. We were firmly suppressed outside the execution ground, and it was at this moment that we were rescued by those men in black."
Zhang Ren was also curious: "The man in black?"
Zhang Ren really wanted to find some helpers during the robbery, but he couldn't trust anyone in Jinling City. Even Ji Gang, whom he had a life-long friendship with, he only asked him to set off a few fires to attract others' attention, and did not put it to him. Tell Ji Gang all the plans.
So during the robbery, there were only two people, Zhang Ren and the Thousand-faced Man. So where did these men in black come from? Even if Lan Yu and the others raised some dead soldiers, those dead soldiers would never be the opponents of Eunuch Jia and Granny Sun.
Cao Bing nodded and said: "Later, a man in black carried you, who was seriously injured, and brought everyone to your house. The man in black said that they came to save us because of your entrustment. Yes, and the reason why you were injured was because you faced Jiang Yu and Luo Kedi at the Tribulation Field."
Zhang Ren looked embarrassed, and he immediately said: "How can I, Zhang Ren, He De, go up against Master Jiang and Master Luo? When I went to the Tribulation Field, I was blocked by Master Luo. I was indeed seriously injured. It's him."
Zhang Ren said and pointed at the Thousand-faced Man beside him who was wrapped into a rice dumpling.
"Thank you hero for coming to the rescue." People also saluted the Thousand-Faced Man.
Zhang Ren then asked: "Zhaobing, what are the characteristics of those men in black?"
Cao Bing thought to himself, you found those men in black, and you still ask me? But then he thought about it, there were quite a few people in black clothes, and Zhang Ren probably couldn't recognize them all.
He thought about it carefully and then said: "Those people were dressed in black clothes and their faces were covered with black cloth. You really can't tell anything about them, but the one who is carrying you has an iron sword on his back and seems to have a Taoist crown on his head. .”
Zhang Ren thought about it carefully and realized that he actually knew one person who was carrying an iron sword and wearing a Taoist crown, and that was Zhang Zhong, a Taoist named Tieguan, one of the Five Disciples of the Ming Cult.
I remember that Zhang Zhong wanted to kill Master Luo at the beginning, but he gave up the idea after learning about Han Qin's existence. So could the man in black be Zhang Zhong?
If so, those men in black were all found by Master Luo? But why did Master Luo seriously injure himself? There are still too many things that Zhang Ren can't figure out.
Night rivers and lakes.
