Shu Blossoms

Chapter 651 Remedy
The officers and soldiers guarding the city watched the carriage slowly drive out of the city gate, and one of them asked curiously: "Why do you go out before the curfew? Just a few people are not afraid of accidents when they are pulling a cart full of goods at night. It's not peaceful!"

"I think the boss of Xiulizhuang is very thoughtful. It's just that the world is not peaceful, so he rushes out at night. Those lovely people outside are more terrifying than big worms! Besides, big worms may not sleep at night, and those thieves who rob the road still have to sleep. Yes. Doing it in the opposite direction and not attracting attention may be able to avoid those scourges!" Another soldier retorted him.

"What you said is reasonable. It might come true if you don't expect it. When you said that, I also thought that it would take a day to walk from us to the south city. They set off at dusk, and they will arrive at the gate of the south city early in the morning, so there will be no delay." It's a matter of business, the boss of Xiulizhuang will indeed plan."

If Zheng Wei and Yuan Wang heard these words, they would definitely admire these two people, they really didn't think they were so thoughtful, they were really just afraid that they wouldn't be able to catch up.

The carriage stopped when it passed the mass grave, and several people lifted a sack from the carriage, and then a clear female voice pointed to the front and said: "It seems to be there yesterday!"

"Princess, is this here?" They walked to the place she pointed, and one of the men asked the petite girl beside him.The girl looked around vigilantly for a moment before nodding.

Several people threw the sack away, one of them opened the mouth of the sack, a pungent smell of blood and rancidity rushed to his face, Zheng Wei frowned and couldn't help but took two steps back, next to her was Xiao Yucheng who was dressed in black, pulling her, He stood behind him, and the person next to him reprimanded softly, "I told you to stay and wait for the news, you have to come out!"

Zheng Wei hid behind Xiao Yucheng, and glared at his elder brother, "Don't you also insist on coming out!"

"Get out of here first!" Xiao Yucheng interrupted them, pulling Zheng Wei out, followed by Zheng Heng and Yuan Wang.

When they got back on the road, Zheng Wei told Yuan Wang, "Brother's people are already waiting for you, be careful on the road."

"Princess, don't worry, we will be careful." Yuan Wang nodded, waved, and the carriage continued on its way.

Watching them leave, Zheng Heng also said: "Let's leave quickly, don't let anyone find out!"

After hearing his words, Zheng Wei grabbed Xiao Yucheng, and said in a low voice: "The people who come here late at night should be people with a heart like us!"

The three looked at each other and made a decision.

Less than half an hour later, they were hidden in the tree and were chilled by the cold wind in early spring. Zheng Wei shivered from the cold, and suddenly heard movement not far away, and immediately looked deep into the forest , the rustling sound came slowly, and when they walked in, they found three beasts the size of jackals. They murmured a few times, went to the sack and sniffed, and then buried their heads in eating, rubbing their teeth and chewing. The sound made her shudder.

Xiao Yucheng looked at Zheng Wei worriedly, she has good hearing and can hear the movements below more clearly, sometimes this is not a good thing.

Zheng Wei's face looked a bit disastrous against the background of the moonlight, feeling Xiao Yucheng's worry, forced a smile at him.

In less than a stick of incense, the three wolves left one after another. Zheng Heng half-opened his eyes and glanced there, and almost didn't spit it out, so he turned his head and covered his mouth.

Although they were afraid of being exposed that the person in the sack below was not from yesterday, they deliberately threw a few large pieces of fresh mutton into it, in order to attract wild animals and blur the contents.

But they didn't expect that they would witness all this cruelty.

They hung on the tree for more than an hour, Zheng Heng looked towards the east, the sky had already begun to dim, and he guessed in his heart that maybe they overestimated those people in the Governor's Mansion, they were too arrogant to come back to make up for their omissions.

He looked at Zheng Wei's hiding place, thinking whether he should remind her to leave, but when he turned his head and happened to meet Zheng Wei's sharp eyes, he immediately became vigilant.

After waiting for a few more breaths, he also heard the slight sound of hoofbeats, which soon became louder and louder. He couldn't help breathing lightly, and quietly looked down.

A carriage and two fine horses stopped not far away. The man with the carriage walked up to them, bent down to take a look, and immediately ran to the side retching and vomited.

"What's going on? Are you still here?" The man on the horse couldn't wait to urge.

The coachman ran back with a distraught face, and said intermittently: "Back to my lord, it's still, it's still there. That's it"

"Pull it back now, a dead person scares you like this?"

This man's voice made Zheng Wei raise his eyebrows, Yang Jing actually came in person.

"Lang Jun, I can't take it back, I can't see it anymore!"

The coachman spoke vaguely, Yang Jing got off his horse in confusion, "What's going on?"

"Nothing left after being gnawed by wild beasts in the forest!"

Hearing the words, Yang Jing was so scared that he took a few steps back, swallowed his saliva, and said in a somewhat flabbergasted tone, "Father said, if you live, you want to see people, if you die, you want to see corpses, even the remaining bones must be taken back!"

As Yang Jing said, Yang Jing took a deep breath. Halfway through the breath, he seemed to smell blood in the air. He couldn't help but feel sick, so he quickly let out a few breaths, turned around and struggled for a long time, and then walked forward bravely.

Walking to the sack, he took a quick look inside, turned around and ran back, and when he got on his horse, he yelled at the coachman: "Take that lump back!"

The coachman walked over tremblingly, picked up a branch as thick as an arm on the road, and pulled the sack twice. He looked around vigilantly, as if he was afraid that some wild beast would come out in the dark, half-closed his eyes, and pulled the sack tremblingly. The corner of the sack strode back.

Zheng Wei watched from the tree, rolled his eyeballs, and said a word to Xiao Yucheng silently, Xiao Yucheng immediately understood, turned his palm over, and twisted a small stone that came from nowhere, with a flick of his finger, the small stone flew out , on the coachman's knee.

In a panic, the coachman thought he had hit something, coupled with fear, his legs were weak and he fell to the ground, the sack also fell down, and there were balls of things falling out of it, hiding under the weeds.

In the dim sky, the coachman didn't bother to take a closer look. He seemed to hear the faint howling of a wolf, grabbed the sack and ran back to the carriage in a panic.

When Yang Jing saw the coachman running back, he couldn't wait to run away, and the other guards also chased after him. The coachman shoved the sack into the cart and ran away, whipping his whip again and again.

When they walked away, Zheng Wei and Xiao Yucheng were relieved, Xiao Yucheng easily jumped down from the tree with Zheng Wei in his arms, Zheng Heng climbed down with a little bit of effort, and ran to them with a slightly pale face. Palely said: "That woman definitely knows something important, otherwise Governor Yang would not have forced Yang Jing to collect the corpse."

"We have to rush back to Xiulizhuang now, and find a way to wake her up!"

Zheng Wei agrees with what Zheng Heng said, and can't wait to go back to the city.

Their luck was still good. When they returned to Xiuli Village, the little girl who was serving said that the girl had just woken up and was drinking rice soup. Zheng Weiwei ran to the door and stopped Zheng Heng and Xiao Yucheng, "I'll go in and have a look first." , don't scare her anymore!"
