Chapter 75: Life and Death and Impermanence(2/2)

Hearing the strange beast-like screams from behind, which was nonsense they couldn't understand, the servants' faces turned pale, and just when they were about to raise their swords and guns, a huge impact came from behind.

Several servants instantly fell to the ground as if they were swallowed by the flood, and the carriage was not spared from overturning to the ground.

The old man was dizzy because of the earth-shaking. Seeing that the sky above his head seemed to be covered, he subconsciously stretched out his hand.

"I am Huang Cheng, I know you, Mr. Yu..." he shouted.

He was speaking nonsense, but he was still a step too late. The scythe had already fallen. He was picked up, slid through an arc and fell to the side of the road. His servants were also struck in the same way.

Pick up the stabbing and throw it away.

"I seem to hear what this man said about us..." a Jin soldier said, looking at the old man who was thrown aside with a somewhat hesitant expression.

"Don't worry, it's important to escape quickly." Another golden soldier shouted, urging his horse to gallop forward.

The golden soldier stopped hesitating and looked back. The ferocity with which he slashed people with his sickle without blinking had faded away, and his face was covered with a layer of fear.

A group of people rushed forward with a bit of haste.

A moment later, smoke and dust billowed, people screamed, and another group of well-dressed soldiers and horses came. However, seeing these soldiers and horses, the villagers who hid in the fields did not run again, but ran back happily.

"Fellow, you are frightened." The leading general shouted.

"We are still safe," the villager shouted, pointing to the roadside with a sad expression, "but these passers-by..."

Zhou Bing looked as he pointed and saw four or five people lying on the roadside. One was still twitching, while the others were motionless, with blood gushing from their bodies.

"They say they came here after escaping from trouble all the way." The villager shook his head sadly, "I didn't expect..."

"Did you see that?" The general looked solemnly and said to the soldiers behind him, "Why should we pursue these golden soldiers unremittingly? It is to prevent them from harming the people. If we don't destroy these remnants, we don't know how many people will suffer.

.”

The soldiers responded in unison.

The general was about to dismount from his horse to check on the deceased. Suddenly there was a noise in front of him. Everyone looked up and saw flags like clouds on the horizon.

"Sir, look, reinforcements from the North have arrived." An officer and soldier shouted in surprise.

"Sir, these are Duke Cheng's men." Another shouted while looking at the incoming flags.

Hearing the words "Cheng Guogong", not to mention the excitement of the officers and soldiers, the whole village was boiling, and countless men, women, old and children suddenly poured out of the originally deserted village.

"Gong Cheng Guo is here!"

"We don't have to be afraid anymore!"

"Hurry and greet Duke Cheng Guo!"

Looking at the jubilant villagers, the officers and soldiers no longer stopped.

"Cover this body first." The general got on his horse and said without forgetting. He glanced at the deceased who was lying on the ground and could not see his face clearly. "He is old. You should bury him properly when the time comes."

Of course the villagers had no objections, and immediately someone pulled out mats to cover these people. After doing this, they headed towards the direction where Cheng Guogong came from.

After the noise faded away, the corpses lying on the side of the road looked particularly desolate.

Some villagers walking slowly passed by and couldn't help but sigh.

"Sins," he said with hatred, "These are all the sins of the gold thief."

.........

........

The people and officials along the way were overjoyed when they heard the reputation of Duke Cheng Guo, but the people in the capital, especially the officials of the imperial court, were not only happy but also a little embarrassed.

After all, everyone has not forgotten how Duke Cheng Guo left.

The rebels who conspired to rebel have fled.

This is no small crime, and there must be an explanation.

Some officials proposed the idea of ​​meritorious deeds due to crime, but Cheng Guogong rejected it.

"I'm not doing meritorious deeds."

Duke Cheng Guo, who had not been seen for a long time but was still elegant and graceful, slowly stood in front of the hall and looked at the officials in front of him.

"This is His Majesty's foresight."

What?

How does this have anything to do with His Majesty?

Why did it become foresight again?

What’s the deep plot? What’s the far-reaching concern?

The officials frowned and looked at Duke Cheng.

What happened recently has become more and more bizarre and bizarre, and everyone is a bit unable to react.
