Chapter 362: Sacrifice

Fortunately, the two ancient treasures are now in his pocket, so Lu Yuan is not so anxious.

After all, I don’t know whether it’s bad or good to open the ancient door in my mind.

With many questions, Lu Yuan felt that his eyelids became heavy again.

He yawned and fell into a deep sleep. …

Changning.

The once prosperous capital city, the center of world civilization, is now in ruins.

The streets were littered with the corpses of soldiers and civilians, and rivers of blood flowed.

The soldiers of Shixue'an were cleaning the battlefield and digging out the belongings from the dead bodies from time to time.

Wild dogs competed with each other for carcasses, and crows sometimes flew in the air and sometimes gathered on the ground to eat the leftovers left by the wild dogs.

In the distance, the blood-red setting sun seemed to engulf everything.

A group of soldiers pushed and shoved a prisoner with tattered clothes in front of Shixue'an.

Shi Xue'an stopped what he was doing and turned around to look at the man carefully.

This is a middle-aged man who has been through many hardships.

He has no hair, but his eyebrows and beard are as straight as silver needles. His face was covered with bloodstains, but his eyes were piercing, as if they were about to burst into light.

Shi Xue'an saw him and said with a smile: "Master, you are polite!"

The compassionate master glanced at him, closed his eyes, and ignored him.

"Are you the Ci Master who released the Ci technique to help Yu Jun heal?"

"Exactly." The man said coldly.

"May I ask for my nickname?"

"Poor teacher Jinghai, I have heard of General Shi for a long time."

Master Jinghai deliberately emphasized the word "Daimyo".

Shi Xue'an laughed and said: "I don't dare to take the name. Hahahaha! Pull it down!"

The sergeants brought Jinghai to Changning Square.

The place has been cleared. But you can still see the blood on the ground.

The area was already crowded with people who had no time to escape.

They were being escorted by a group of heavily armored soldiers, all of them looking sad, with extremely desperate expressions on their faces.

Seeing Jinghai arriving, the people couldn't help but let out a low cry and slowly took a few steps back.

Jinghai was stripped of his shirt by the soldiers and tied tightly to a blood-soaked wooden stake in the center of the square.

Shi Xue'an stood on the high platform of the square holding a long sword and shouted loudly to the people:

"Fellows and villagers! You should have heard how much influence a compassionate master who specializes in healing can have on a team. This compassionate master Jinghai helped treat Hunjun's sergeant, causing heavy losses to my rebel army. You guys Tell me, should I kill you?!"

There was silence below.

Jinghai smiled slightly: "Traitor, if you want to take action, hurry up!"

Shi Xu'an glanced at him: "Folks, I, Shi, know that you have been deceived by the foolish king. The foolish king indulged in beauty, ignored the government, and handed over the great rivers and mountains to the great female ministers Li Fu and Yan Guozhong. In these years Think about it for yourselves, can you still live in those days?"

His passionate speech only received blank stares from everyone.

Shi Xue'an smiled awkwardly and continued: "So if you hide or treat the injured Yu Jun, this Master Cushi is your role model."

After speaking, his expression changed and he shouted in a low voice:

"Execution!"

A group of executioners came over holding short knives and thin hooks.

What they want to carry out is the punishment of Lingchi!

Jinghai showed no fear in the face of the gleaming instruments of torture. He looked up at the sunset in the distance and couldn't help but recall the demon master named Lu Yuan he met back then.

In this way, the poor teacher can be regarded as being freed from his sins. Ami’s loving kindness.

Jinghai recited the words of mercy in his heart and slowly closed his eyes.

After executing Jinghai, Shixuean immediately ordered the army to repair quickly. Tomorrow morning we will pursue Emperor Yu Ming and others who fled westward.
