After the announcement, the small official on horseback ran away quickly in shock.
"Chen Sheng, come with me to go out and take a look." Xu Mu calmed down and spoke in a solemn voice.
"Get a jar of wine."
Chen Sheng nodded, ran to the wine cellar again, and carried Tan Zui Tian Xian out.
"The rest of the people stay in the village to gather things, hitch more carriages, and put up curtains."
"Brother Mu, I'm going too!" Si Hu stood up in dismay.
"Si Hu, you stay too, I'll come back as soon as I can."
I didn't take Si Hu with me because I was afraid something would happen to him.
Even Xu Mu himself didn't know why he wanted to make this trip.
"The grain in Zhuangzi was protected from the tide first. When officials came to urge it, they said it was from Changjia Town and no one dared to touch it."
"Caiwei, look at them."
Jiang Caiwei didn't understand what Xu Mu meant. She was afraid that Zhuangzi would cause trouble again at this time.
"Xu Lang, be extremely careful." The voice was slightly crying.
"I know, I'll see Liu'er off and be back soon."
After walking out of Zhuangzi, the rain was still falling violently outside. Chen Sheng held the wine jar in one hand and an oil-paper umbrella in the other. Together with his boss, he walked forward cautiously.
Haven't left Dongfang yet.
A carriage came to an abrupt stop after running over the water.
Lu Zizhong poked his head out of the carriage, his expression slightly ferocious, and he crossed his hands in amusement.
"I know my little boss is leaving, and I'm an old friend, so I came here to say goodbye."
"One day when you die and you carry the coffin into the ground, I will also give you a ride."
Lu Zizhong was not angry and pointed his finger, "Do you know? A few old ghosts at home still want your Drunken Heavenly Immortal Prescription, so I advised them that there is no hope for dog followers like Xiao Dongjia, so they can only kill them all." .”
"I, the Zui Tianxian of Xujiazhuang, always have a good business wherever I go. The sour wine from the four major families will rot in the wine cellar sooner or later."
"My little boss, you are always a little disciple and cannot understand the world."
"What I see in this world is based on my own conscience."
Lu Zizhong laughed so hard that he couldn't even close his mouth.
"Idiot! Take your villagers and starve to death!"
Xu Mu smiled coldly and was too lazy to talk to him anymore. He and Chen Sheng continued to walk, stepped through the stagnant water, and walked towards Xifang.
"You have such an idiotic conscience! No one who has read tens of millions of books by sages is as great as you! If you don't eat people in this world, you'll be dead!"
In the wind and rain, Lu Zizhong’s mocking voice grew farther and farther away.
Xu Mu had a cold face and continued to move forward with Chen Sheng.
As we approached the market entrance, more and more people wearing raincoats were watching. The bustling crowd blocked every alleyway.
Countless soldiers, wearing robes and armor, holding swords and halberds, lined up around them.
"Liu'er..." Chen Sheng beside him burst into tears for a moment.
Xu Mu looked up.
I found about five figures on the wooden platform at Caishikou, their knees had been smashed, and they were hanging limply with hemp ropes, kneeling weakly.
The person in the middle is Ma Liu. He had lost his former grace, his face was covered with bloody lumps, and his two eyes seemed to have been cut, and they were covered in blood.
The four figures on both sides were also in miserable condition.
The heavy rain fell, soaking through the gaps in the wooden platform, and the dripping blood was like blooming bloody plum blossoms.
"This is a rebel party! A traitor!" The old official from the previous official office saw the crowd growing, so he took a few steps out and spoke angrily.
"We have a peaceful and prosperous era in our era! The people are safe in Wufu! But it is these gangs of traitors! They dare to confuse the people and are disobedient!"
"To be killed! To be beheaded!"
After the old official finished shouting, he turned his head flatteringly and looked at a general behind him.
The general sneered and raised his hand.
The five bare-chested executioners began to spit wine to wipe their knives, and then walked towards the wooden platform.
The huge crowd began to retreat sadly. Several old women who wanted to buy steamed buns with human blood crowded in front of the wooden counter in ecstasy.
Wild dogs, accustomed to eating in groups, also hurriedly gathered around the corner, ready to grab the heads.
"Save someone under the knife! Let's drink a bowl of guillotine wine!"
Xu Mu spoke angrily, then gritted his teeth. He may be a fool, but while he is waiting, he still causes trouble.
But if the hero is not sent, he will be uneasy.
Just like the six thousand defenders of Tongzi Camp who went to die in the bloody battle at Yongguan. This world is horribly filthy, and the rare rays of clarity in this world are about to be cut off.
Pushing aside the crowd, Xu Mu stepped forward coldly. Chen Sheng, who was beside him, also had a look of desolation on his face and followed leisurely.
The old official looked at the visitor and frowned slightly, but then became happy again. He walked back a few steps and whispered a few words in the ear of the general who was sitting in charge.
The general's face turned cold for a moment, he stood up, and looked Xu Mu up and down.
"Are you Xu Mu? General Po Di Zhao Qingyun, is your brother?"
"No, it's an old friend."
"Since it's not the case, you are so brave! You dare to come and send off the rebels!"
"General, there must be an affair!" the old official added.
More than a dozen soldiers from the battalion were coldly trying to surround him.
"The wine of a beheaded man can make all grudges disappear in one drink! I just hope that he will live a decent life in the next life and never become a thief again. May I ask the general what crime he committed!"
"In the era of peace and prosperity in the Great Epoch, could it be that they didn't even dare to give away a sip of wine?"
Ma Liu, who was dying on the wooden platform, heard Xu Mu's voice, and blood and tears oozed from his two bloody eyes.
The crowd began to stir.
Several old women who were waiting for human blood steamed buns wanted to fight Xu Mu, but Chen Sheng coldly pushed them away.
"If I, Xu Mu, were having an affair, how could I dare to come here? The general has done a great job in suppressing the rebellion, so it would be better to gain another good reputation. When someone talks about it in the future, they will definitely praise the general."
The general on the wooden platform smiled slightly and raised his hand to let the gathered soldiers disperse.
"This time, let's do it for the sake of General Po Di."
The old official next to him wanted to fan the flames, but the general glared at him and quickly stepped aside in dismay.
The wild dogs became impatient, and several old women howled and bulged their eyes, looking nervously at the executioner.
Xu Mu held the wine jar, and the four heroes on both sides each took a sip of wine.
Finally, it stopped in front of Ma Liu. Ma Liu raised his bloody face.
"Xu, Master Xu, it's hard to thank you for your great kindness. I will repay you in the next life."
"Do you regret it?"
"I regret it so much... I will do it again in the next life. This, this world is dirty, and someone needs to clean it up."
Xu Mu rubbed his sore eyes and held the wine jar in front of Ma Liu. Ma Liudu laughed twice, buried his whole head into the mouth of the wine jar, and drank heavily.
He only felt that he was just like a passer-by looking at the scenery, black and white, it was an invisible scenery.
"Tell me what your original name was."
"My, my little boss's name is Ma Chao."
"I told you that he is the mighty general who kills his enemies so much that they cut off their beards and throw away their robes."
"Hahaha, I remember!"
Xu Mu stood up tremblingly and walked under the wooden platform.
Behind him, five executioners raised their knives, and several old women and wild dogs began to make charging gestures.
"The rivers and mountains are shrouded in mist and rain!"
"Destroy the dynasty with one sword in ten years!"
"I am the mighty general of the gods——"
The machete cut through the rain, and drops of blood splashed onto Xu Mu's back, burning his whole body.
"Chen Sheng, collect the body."
Chen Sheng abandoned the oil-paper umbrella and rushed over with red eyes, chasing away the old woman taking blood and the wild dog with its head in its mouth.
The crowd began to retreat in shock. The camp soldiers also began to withdraw their troops.
The general standing on the wooden platform smiled with satisfaction.
"My dear boss, if someone accuses you of killing an official, it's best to be false. Otherwise, if you find out, no one will be able to protect you."
"General, if you behave upright, why do you need others to protect you?"
The general on the wooden platform was stunned for a moment, then smiled, nodded his finger, turned around and walked forward.
The rain doesn't stop.
Xu Mu stood in the rain. For a moment, he felt cold all over.
