Chapter 308: Innocence

"The whole army entered Zhu'an City, took down the city defense... and buried the dead." Ye Guan's expression was indifferent, and he gave Kou Long a soft command, turned around and left. He left Kou Long standing there, a little at a loss. After Ye Guan left for a while, he realized it and immediately left the yard and ran towards the city gate.

Ye Guan left the courtyard and was in a heavy mood. At the first night, he walked on the wide and quiet streets of Zhu'an City. He listened to his footsteps and walked aimlessly.

With the help of the vague light, he checked the buildings on the street, taverns, teahouses, grain shops, grocery shops, big restaurants, silk and satin shops.

All the shops I saw were welcoming guests, but there was no one in the shops.

In a trance, you can still see the lively situation of the tavern and teahouse in the past, with traffic and crowds of people on the streets.

Ye Guan stood at the door of a tavern, took a deep breath, and raised his legs into the tavern door.

The store is not big, with only seven or eight tables, a simple counter facing the door, and the shelves behind it are filled with wine jars. Above the counter is a bowl of tea, next to it is the account book of the tavern, and the brushes are placed nicely aside, and the entire counter is clean and tidy.

I lit a candle, and through the gray light of the candle, I saw the account book, which was recorded in the tavern's accounts, with beautiful handwriting, and the person who wrote it should be a scholar.

In the counter, there were some scattered silver and copper coins, which were scattered into a ball before they could be sorted out.

Ye Guan sighed softly, turned around and took a jar of wine from the shelf behind him, walked to a table, sat down gently, and slapped the mud seal of the wine jar, and a smell of wine suddenly penetrated into his nose.

He picked up the wine jar and drank it in.

A spicy feeling came from the chest and then went down quickly.

Soon, the spicy feeling disappeared, and the warmth replaced by things.

This is not a good wine, but Ye Guan thinks it is a good wine.

Without stopping, drink all the remaining wine in the jar in one go.

He has not touched alcohol for more than ten years, and this is the first time since he was injured in more than ten years.

Without the silent old wounds in the body, Ye Guan’s cultivation level can be drunk without a thousand cups.

But that night, he got drunk and was very drunk.

When Ding Jiang and Kou Long came over, the ground was filled with wine jars. Ye Guan, alone, drank all the wine on the shelves of the entire tavern, and his eyes were whirling and his face was flushed.

"Go... check out!" Ye Guan looked at Ding Jiang and Kou Long with a dim eyes, with a smile on his face, drunken, pointed at the counter and asked the two of them to pay for him.

Ding Jiang and Kou Long looked at each other, but they didn't say anything. Ding Jiang stepped forward and helped Ye Guan up and left the door of the tavern. Kou Long took out an ingot of silver from his arms and solemnly placed it on the counter.

In the cold night, Ding Jiang held Ye Guan, who could no longer walk in a straight line, and Kou Long followed behind, walking on the quiet streets of Zhu'an City, with bright moon in front of him.

"The bright moon is in the sky! What a beautiful scenery on earth! Hahaha..." Ye Guan looked up at the bright moon in the sky, shouted this with a smell of alcohol, laughing loudly, and tears burst into tears in the corners of his eyes, and then burst into tears.

"What a beautiful scene...the world's scenery!" Ye Guan reached out and patted Ding Jiang's chest vigorously, tears flowing.

Ding Jiang and Kou Long remained silent. Kou Long stepped forward and pressed Ye Guan's arm against his shoulders, his face a little solemn.

The two of them drove the drunk Ye Guan step by step towards an inn in the city.

Zhu'an City is one of the five cities of Qiuchang, and the city lord in the entire Qiuchang City area is Shen Tu Yan. Zhu'an City has no city lord, and there is no city lord. The most core building in the city is the Martial Palace. But at this moment, the Martial Palace is full of dead bodies of enclave soldiers, so Ye Guan could not be allowed to move in. The second general could only bring Ye Guan into an inn in the city and arrange it here.

He placed Ye Guan, who was still muttering to himself, put his coat on the bed in the inn, and covered him with a quilt. Ding Jiang and Kou Long took a step back, clasped their fists, and bowed respectfully to Ye Guan.

On this day, almost everything was carried by Ye Guan alone. Later, even if the two of them had no vision, they could see a clue. The vision that appeared in Zhu'an City was probably artificial. And behind them, Ye Guan was even more fighting against this vision alone, although in the eyes of Kou Long beside him, Ye Guan was just standing quietly.

But Kou Long knew that the power of Ye Guan was fighting against was not something they could imagine in the remote courtyard. Especially when Kou Long saw the blood-colored hole that appeared inexplicably on Ye Guan's chest, he was still shocking.

The two of them didn't know what Ye Guan had experienced. The only thing they knew was that at the most critical moment, Ye Guan ordered all the soldiers to withdraw from Zhu'an City and save almost everyone's lives.

If the black vortex in the sky really descends again, or enters the camp directly, it is unimaginable how many soldiers will be killed and injured.

Seeing Ye Guan getting drunk, the two generals sighed. They naturally heard a lot about Ye Guan. Ye Guan, General Ye, does not drink alcohol, is not lustful, does not love money, and does not greedy for merit. He is almost a person without desires and no desires. As the lord of Wuxing Five City of the Eastern Prince's Mansion, he is responsible for the training of all the soldiers. He is powerful and it is easy to fill his pockets. However, Ye Guan lives very poorly. All the objects in the lord's mansion they live in are old. It is rumored that he does not live in the master bedroom prepared by the lord's mansion for the lord's mansion, but sleeps in the side room, with a simple and simple life, and is dedicated to the people.

Such a character is drunk at this moment and crying bitterly. How can he not let the two generals feel emotional?

"I'll guard it, you can do the affairs in the city." Kou Long said softly to Ding Jiang beside him, with a serious expression.

Ding Jiang nodded, his face turned pale, and he turned around and walked out of the door.

Kou Long also left Ye Guan's bedroom, found a chair beside him, and sat at the door of Ye Guan's room with a expressionless face.

Kou Long conveyed Ye Guan's order. At this moment, except for a few soldiers who were left behind in the camp, most of the other soldiers had entered Zhu'an City, occupied Zhu'an City's defense, and cleared the bodies in three courtyards all night.

There was silence in Zhu'an City, and all the soldiers involved in cleaning the bodies were as deep as water.

They had never seen so many people's corpses at once. After a rough calculation, there were tens of thousands. Almost all the people in Zhu'an City were among them, including men, women, young and old.

They didn't know what happened, and everyone had no scars on their bodies, their faces were calm and calm, and their mouths were smiling. The only thing that could be considered a wound was the only blood stains left by the corners of their mouths, and everyone was the same.

The cleaning work continued until dawn. After cleaning up by more than 10,000 soldiers all night, all the bodies were finally cleaned up and placed neatly on the streets of Zhu'an City. The bodies were everywhere, but so.

Ding Jiang got the specific death numbers.

In Zhu'an City, there were 6,700 dead soldiers, without external injuries. In the death of the people, there were 97,675 dead, without external injuries.

The wide streets of Zhu'an City were filled with the corpses of the people and soldiers, and all the soldiers of the Eastern Prince's Mansion looked heavy.

A new day is coming.

When the first ray of Yang's eyes were shining, Ye Guan gently opened his eyes and felt a splitting headache.

Gently getting up from the bed and looking around, Ye Guan found himself in a strange place.

At this moment, the door opened, Kou Long, with a tired face, walked in. Seeing that Ye Guan had sat up, he squeezed out a smile on his face, stepped forward, held Ye Guan's arm, and whispered: "You are awake."

"Where is this?" Ye Guan stood up by Kou Long, and found that he was naked, revealing his solid muscles. His previous long gown was placed in a corner with a trace of blood on it. Ye Guan couldn't help but frown slightly after watching it.

"In the inn." Kou Long explained softly, took out a light-colored long gown that had been prepared long ago and put it on for Ye Guan.

While dressing Ye Guan, Kou Long whispered: "Last night, the cleaning work in the city was completed. What should I do next? Are you burying it on the spot?"

Kou Long's voice was very light, as if he was afraid of shocking Ye Guan. He knew in his heart that Ye Guan put the affairs of the people first. This time he saw Zhu'an City being massacred with his own eyes, and Ye Guan's feelings were hard to express.

Silent, Ye Guan didn't say anything. After putting on his long gown, he sighed softly and asked, "The security in the city has been taken over? But what's suspicious?"

"We have taken over all of them, and no suspicion has been found. Zhu'an City has a tight security. Even if the enemy attacks now, without a 100,000 army, we cannot break the city." Kou Long heard Ye Guan inquiring about the matter in the army and quickly answered.

"Okay." Ye Guan nodded slightly, stopped talking, raised his foot, left the bedroom, went straight down the inn stairs, and came to the main street.

The morning sun shone down, lit up everything around. Ye Guan pushed open the door of the inn, slapped the sergeant, standing neatly on the street, forming a long row. In front of them, the bodies of the people of Zhu'an City were neatly arranged, filling the entire Zhu'an City Main Street.

Ye Guan's face was heavy, and he stepped out of the inn gate, walked forward along the main street, lowered his head, looked at their bodies, looking at their faces, as if he wanted to remember everyone in his heart.

Kou Long followed Ye Guan silently, feeling heavy. Ding Jiang stood quietly in the corner of the main street with a blue face.

Both the generals of the Eastern Prince's Mansion, when I saw this scene, I felt like I was cut into pieces and it was so painful.

"The world...beautiful scenery..." Ye Guan walked forward slowly, looking at his face one by one, only to feel his eyes wet and his steps were staggering.

There was no injury in my body, but I suffered even worse injuries in my heart.

There were so many innocent people who died tragically on the spot, and they didn't even know why they died. They were all confused by illusions and were willing to die. They didn't even have a clear consciousness before they died.

Among these dead people, Ye Guan saw the corpses of countless children, some seven or eight years old, some one or two years old, with their tender faces still a shallow and innocent smile, but life also disappeared at this moment.

Ye Guan stood quietly next to the corpses of these children, his eyes a little confused, and he murmured: "What's the crime of a child...?"

"What are the crimes of the people?" Ye Guan looked at Kou Long beside him and asked, "What are the crimes of it?"

Kou Long's face was as deep as water, and he returned softly: "The people are innocent."

"No sin...that is, we are guilty." Hearing Kou Long's answer, Ye Guan took a deep breath, looked at the sleepy face of the child in front of him, and said softly: "It's safe to be buried."

"Sir," Kou Long took the order softly, then waved his arm, and the soldiers on standby immediately stepped forward and carried down the corpses placed on the main street one by one.

There are large areas of farmland in Zhu'an City. Ding Jiang chose several of these farmlands and ordered the soldiers to dig the graves. After midnight, part of them had been completed.

"After doing this, stand by in Zhu'an City. If you encounter an enemy attack, kill it!" Ye looked at the soldier who was carrying the people's corpses one by one, and then told Kou Long beside him.

"The last general is the order."

Then, Ye Guan took a war horse, got on the horse, and in the morning sun, he left Zhu'an City, and followed the official road and left the world.
