The reborn general girl is the emperor

Chapter 140
Sure enough, what should come cannot escape after all.

Lu Ning's face was ashen, she closed her eyes and nodded dejectedly.

Killing for life, he has long realized.

However, just when he thought the matter was over, the man asked him again: "Why kill people?"

Lu Ningzhi was silent for a while, he didn't want to explain at first, but looking into the eyes of the opposite person made him feel some unreasonable expectations for life.

Stumbling, Lu Ningzhi and Yan Qing talked about the cause and effect.

After listening, Yan Qing just nodded, indicating that he understood, and didn't ask any other questions or say anything else.

While Yan Qing was asking Lu Ning, the rest of the people had already cleaned up the battlefield, tied up the bandits who surrendered, and dug a pit to pile up firewood for the dead.

In this battle, the Chijia Battalion was not without losses.

The bones of the soldiers who died in battle were lined up in a row, as many as a dozen people.

Yu Huaining confirmed the identity of the deceased, made a record, and a fire turned everything into loess.

After the fire was extinguished and all the sparks were buried in the soil, Yan Qing looked away and glanced at the gangsters who were bundled into a ball.

There was a chill in her eyes, which made one almost think that she was going to kill everyone to vent her anger.

But Yan Qing just took a glance, then withdrew his gaze, and said, "Go back to the city."

Lu Ningzhi followed Jin Ming, staring at Yan Qing's back all the time, with confusion, doubt, and puzzlement in his eyes, and moreover, he couldn't explain his own emotions.

She looked about the same age as herself, but she was far calmer and calmer than herself.

What kind of environment does a person have to grow up in to have such a calmness far beyond his own age?
Lu Ningzhi couldn't imagine it.

But he thought, it must be a hundred times, a thousand times more difficult than what he suffered this month.

If you get through it, you will be able to grow.

After walking a certain distance, Lu Ningzhi suddenly remembered something, and walked a few steps to Yan Qing's side, but she became timid when she saw her coming, and her steps slowed down for a while. After a few steps, his gaze was also turned away, and he calmed down a bit. While following up, he asked, "Those people..."

As he spoke, he paused again, bowed his head and thought for a while, as if Yan Qing didn't understand, he redefined "those people", "Those, those who were left behind by these... um... bandits, those who were left behind by these bandits." People, how are you doing?"

Almost in an instant, Jin Ming remembered the tragic situation outside the back door of the government office yesterday, looked at Lu Ningzhi's expectant eyes in front of him, and couldn't bear to turn his head away, but when he saw the gangsters who were detained behind him, he couldn't bear it anymore. It's a hate.

He didn't understand why Yan Qing wanted to keep these people.

Judging from the previous situation, these people were obviously the cronies of the bandit leader who was beheaded by Yan Qing, and they all had innocent lives more or less on their hands.

Lu Ningzhi, who was forced to kill, was even interrogated, why did Yan Qing ignore these obviously vicious people?

Suspicious Jin Ming didn't understand why, but Yan Qing, who was questioned by Lu Ningzhi, replied coldly: "Dead."

The indifference of that tone, without any ups and downs, made Jin Ming's heart startled, but at the same time made Jin Ming's heart cold.

He originally thought that Yan Qing would say a few soft words to appease Lu Ningzhi first, but he didn't expect her to just tell the bloody truth in a daze without any concealment.

Jin Ming was stunned, and suddenly felt a bit of resentment towards Yan Qing in his heart.

He is just a child who just escaped from the hands of bandits and has seen some hope. As for being so cold to others?

How can he bear this?

Jin Ming frowned, lowered his eyes, and sure enough, he saw Lu Ningzhi froze in place, with a smile of expectation on the corner of his lips, but the light in his eyes was gone, the brown pupils dilated, he couldn't believe it, but he couldn't believe it. He was so convinced that he fell into despair in an instant.

Yan Qing didn't stop at all, and within a few breaths, Lu Ningzhi had already been dropped.

At that moment, Jin Ming almost thought that she, Yan Qing, was a cold-blooded and heartless person!

But recalling the words Yan Qing said to himself at the beginning, the careful arrangements and meticulous care are the same for everyone—it seems cold, but it is actually gentle.

Why are you so cold towards this child?
Jin Ming stopped beside Lu Ningzhi, glanced at Yan Qing's slender figure, unable to guess what she was thinking.

Seeing the deeply shocked Lu Ningzhi in a blink of an eye, she couldn't bear it, put her hand on his shoulder, and wanted to comfort him.

But he didn't expect that as soon as his hand touched Lu Ningzhi's shoulder, Lu Ningzhi jumped away like a frightened rabbit, which made Jin Ming startled.

Lu Ningzhi raised her head and saw that it was a strange soldier. She breathed a sigh of relief, but turned her head and caught up with Yan Qing again.

Jin Ming watched Lu Ningzhi slid from his body to Yan Qing's side, and felt a sense of being let down by being treated as a donkey for his good intentions.

But Lu Ningzhi, who came to Yan Qing's side, stopped Yan Qing directly this time, and stubbornly raised her head to retort: ​​"You lied to me! Ge Dazhuang clearly promised me, as long as I... I..."

When it comes to killing people, the courage that Lu Ningzhi had built up under the shock disappeared in an instant, and it was difficult to continue hesitating.

Yan Qing, who was forced to stop, looked down at Lu Ningzhi, who was half a head shorter than him, and finished what he couldn't say for him: "As long as you kill that woman, he will let those people go?"

Touching Yan Qing's cold eyes, Lu Ning shrunk her neck subconsciously, but she nodded nana, not giving an inch.

Yan Qing sighed sullenly, and the corners of his lips twitched, as if mocking: "Do you think that people who are useless to the bandits and who can prove the fact that they did evil can really leave their hands alive?"

Lu Ningzhi immediately remembered what Ge Dazhuang said before he left when he asked him to kill someone.

The woman he killed, the useless person in Ge Dazhuang's mouth, the final fate.

Lu Ningzhi looked at Yan Qing, trying to find some trace of lying on her face, but he was destined to be disappointed.

Yan Qing's face was cold, his black eyes were deep, causing Lu Ningzhi's heart to sink into the abyss little by little.

It's true, she wasn't lying.

Lu Ningzhi staggered back two steps, her lowered head dangling blankly, her unfocused eyes didn't know where to fall to see a little light, she staggered to sit on the ground as if she was out of strength.

Yan Qing, who had always been indifferent to him, quickly grabbed his shoulders this time and lifted him up.

Stepping on the thick mud, Lu Ningzhi felt that his feet were light and unreal.

He looked at Yan Qing blankly, through those pitch-black eyes, he seemed to see the dark underworld, where ghosts and monsters were beckoning to him, but in an instant he turned into the people he had seen.

Lu Ningzhi watched, and suddenly burst into tears, and the empty eyes regained focus.

Looking at Yan Qing, with trembling lips, he said, "Kill me, please."
