Chapter 821 Rebels other than Jinxia
"Brother..." Gongshu Jin suddenly whispered.
"Don't worry, I will solve all this." Gong Shufeng comforted him.
"No, brother... look over there..." The younger brother pointed to the other side of the official road - there was a distance from their location, and with the barrier of torches, it was difficult for ordinary people to see the scene in the dark. Even Gong Shufeng squinted his eyes and looked at it for a while before he could see the shaking figures and the long swords that reflected the light red light in their hands...
Gongshufeng was suddenly stunned.
He remembered that some people who were selected were sent to that direction before.
The facts quickly confirmed his idea.
Another group of people was taken out of the encirclement, and then pressed to kneel on the ground. The standing figure raised his sword and fell down one by one, as if he had disappeared in the night. The whole process was like a silent drama, and although it happened behind the crowd, no one noticed this scene.
A chill that penetrated his bones and marrow rose from the soles of his feet.
The phrase "on-site solution" in the sharp-mouthed man's mouth appeared in his ears again.
He finally understood what this solution meant.
The women and children who were taken out were not even weak in screaming - the reason why they were silently slaughtered was because magic separated the movements they made!
"What are you doing?" Gongshufeng pulled Gongshu Jin incredibly.
Although there were many servants around, the person in charge was not present. With the statements they had made before, they did not dare to take action for a while. They could only shout loudly and chase after him, but they did not stop Gong Shufeng.
He came all the way to the earth slope beside the official road, and the smell of blood suddenly became much stronger.
I saw that there were many corpses lying in the grass below the slope, most of them were elderly scholars and children under ten years old. Obviously, as slaves, these two types of people could hardly sell at any price, and the Tuntianzhuang knew that what they did was not tolerated, and it was a serious crime to put them anywhere, so they did not intend to leave a living!
"Stop here." At this time, one person stopped in front of the two brothers.
There is a commanding meaning in his words, as if he is born superior. With the mechanical rings on his hand, he is probably a alchemist who performs the technique of silentness.
"Are you a member of the Privy Council?" Gong Shufeng asked loudly, "Why should I help them do such a vicious thing?"
The other party raised an eyebrow unexpectedly, but did not reply immediately.
"Even if they are fugitives, they are still people of Qi in terms of identity. As long as they do not sign a contract for sale, any enslavement will not be in accordance with the laws of the king, let alone wanton massacre!" He clenched his fists, "They-they are also human beings!"
"King Fa?" The alchemist stared at him, and after a while he showed a hint of playfulness, "King Fa has been gone for a long time."
What is he talking about...
Gongshufeng almost doubted his ears.
Isn’t this still under the control of the Privy Council?
If the Privy Council does not count as the king's law, who else can count it?
"The two are the secret agents of the Privy Council who are responsible for heavy responsibilities?" A dry voice suddenly sounded from behind. Gong Shufeng looked back and saw that the speaker was a middle-aged man in his thirties, wearing a luxurious brocade robe and long leather boots. He could tell at a glance that his family was quite good. The sharp-mouthed man was also by his side, but his face was completely gone.
There is no doubt that he is the butler mentioned by the other party.
"Not bad." Gong Shufeng could only suppress the distracting thoughts that were surging in his heart and turned his attention back to dealing with this person.
"It turns out that the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple, and they are all family." The butler grinned, "I wonder which mansion the two came from and which level of masters are they of?"
"This...I have nothing to say."
Theoretically, the two brothers are not even considered eighth grade, because as disciples of the public losers, they do not need to take the Scholar Examination to obtain high-ranking officials and generous salaries. Moreover, their ability to sense energy is all used in mechanisms, and the use of magical battles is by no means a good person.
“Can’t you tell me where you are going?”
"cannot."
"Can you have contact persons to prove your identity?"
"This is a top-secret task. Except for us, we must not disclose it to a third party." Gong Shufeng refused.
"I understand." The butler sighed, his voice suddenly became cold, "So, even if you die here, no one can know that we did this?"
"You——" Gong Shufeng's expression changed drastically.
"To be honest, I originally planned to let you go if you didn't see these things." The butler glanced at the corpse under the hillside, "You... can't you think that nothing has happened?"
"Do you know what you are doing?" Gong Shufeng said in shock.
"Let me tell you another little secret." The housekeeper smiled meaninglessly, "Do you know who makes a big profit when buying and selling these people?" He paused for a moment and lowered his voice, "It's Lord Wu Bairen."
The Privy Council...is not ignorant of it?
Before Gongshufeng could digest the news, he felt a sudden pain behind him!
A spear had already poked out from behind and pierced into his body.
He hugged his younger brother and fell forward, and at the same time saw more servants surrounding him with swords and weapons. He usually did not have the means to save his life, but in order to confirm his identity and avoid Jin Xia's people seeing the flaws, he left all the hidden weapons in Shangyuan City. Even if he had the ability to sense energy, he could not beat dozens of well-equipped family private soldiers with just one body.
The second shot stabbed Gongshufeng directly at the neck of the neck—
"Bang!"
Only a light sound was heard, the servant who stabbed him leaned back, and a long string of blood burst out from the center of his nose.
What happened?
Gongshufeng felt his strength passing by. He barely raised his head and found that the people around him seemed to be in a mess. They shouted loudly and waved their weapons to fight with the figures in the night. The originally dead night suddenly became boiling.
Did the refugees realize that their relatives were massacred and eventually triggered a riot?
No, not right...
He realized that these figures that jumped out of the night were not refugees!
Although they were wearing almost the same clothes as refugees, they were also tattered clothes and holding simple weapons, their eyes were completely different - they had no numbness to life and death, and indifferent to their own destiny. Everyone had bright eyes, and their faces were full of hatred and hostility that needed to be described in words. Even when facing thugs who were approving armor, they did not show fear, as if the pitchfork in their hands could break the other's resistance like a hatchet!
One of the young women rushed forward with a flag. There was nothing on the flag, just a dark red rag, but in her hands it seemed to have become a torch that led thousands of troops.
"It's a rebel!"
"Damn, how could they show up here!"
Vaguely, Gongshufeng heard someone shouting in fear.
Resistance Army?
——"I heard that Huiyang Prefecture is arresting the rebels. Every ship heading south needs to be searched in detail to ensure there is no problem before it can be released."
The ship owner's words couldn't help but come to his ears.
He originally thought that the so-called rebel was a spy or spy sent by Jinxia City.
It turns out... the rebellion is not all from Jinxia...
This is Gongshufeng's last consciousness before fainting.
