Two hundred and forty: Eyes open at the bottom of the mass grave

The gods outside the bamboo house looked at each other in a glance.

Originally, after the woman in green robe called Wu Han, everyone had their own thoughts. Regardless of whether the words of the remnant of the dragon bird who had no bones were true or not, as long as Wu Han had half of them, it might be a royal vein, and it would be of great significance to capture them alive.

Regardless of Wu Han's protective treasure, just the identity of the royal family, reporting to the left and right ban is a great achievement.

But why did the two people inside die in the blink of an eye?

At first, Li Buzhuo ordered the portrait to find the master and apprentice of Wu, and Wu Xin took Li Buzhuo to the bamboo house where he was hiding. Everyone thought that Li Buzhuo had a good relationship with Wu Xin, but unexpectedly, he turned against each other and ended up deadly.

"Do you still want me to invite you to move?" Li Buzhuo said.

Liu Wenshu hurriedly put away his doubts, said repeatedly that he didn't dare, and scolded the two little flags and said, "Why are you still standing there? Get the body in burying!" As he said that, he looked at the wound on Li Buzhuo's leg and asked carefully: "My sir's injury..."

Li Buzhuo's muscles tightened, stopped the bleeding, and waved his hand and said, "It's okay, go back to the office first."

Liu Wenshu and others walked into the room. Wu Xin and Wu Han's bodies were lying there quietly. Wu Xin had signs of fierce fighting. It must be Li Buzhuo's death. The specific cause of death needs to be investigated further.

Liu Wenshu's eyes fell on the copper coffin beside Wu Han, and he thought to himself: "The young man is in a strange treasure. This man can kill the escaped Daxia Dragon Bird. This copper coffin is also a treasure. Could it be that Li Buzhuo had the intention to kill someone to seize the treasure in order not to let his superiors know?"

"The boy was an ordinary person without qi cultivation. With the treasure suspected to be left by the royal family of the previous dynasty, he could resist the encirclement of two Huangya Realm. Even if such treasures are exchanged for tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, they must have fallen into Li Buzhuo's hands now..."

The carriage had already reached the bamboo forest. Everyone had their own thoughts to collect the bodies of the two and carefully put them behind the carriage. Li Buzhuo put the copper coffin under his armpit, and the Shenzha army withdrew their troops back to the steward.

Before the carriage could start, Li Buzhuo suddenly turned around at the edge of the carriage and said to everyone: "After today, you will go to the inner trunk to get two gold croakers. For today's affairs, please let you suck it in your stomach." After that, he stepped onto the carriage.

"Two gold croakers..." Liu Wenshu was a little moved when he heard this, but compared to the young man who was suspected to be the remains of the royal family of the previous dynasty and the treasures in the copper coffin, the money was not worth mentioning.

Xiao Shan next to him patted Liu Wenshu on the shoulder and smiled and said, "Mr. Qianhu is so generous. He earned two gold croakers in just half a day. I haven't met such a fat man for a long time. Brother Liu, let's have a drink together tonight."

Liu Wenshu frowned slightly. After spending time with the general flag responsible for the eyeliner of Hedong County, Liu Wenshu knew that Xiaoshan's city was deep and there were two gold pieces, but it did not make Xiaoshan so happy.

When Xiao Shan turned around and walked away, he lowered his voice and said, "Although Lord Li has not been in office for a long time, it is said that he took Yuan Xiong's position as the general's handwritten handwritten letter. How can we calculate? If the Wu master and apprentice were not dead, the news about this matter would be of some value, but now the Wu master and apprentice are dead, and the treasures related to this matter are all in Li Buzhuo's hands. Even if the young man was really bleeding from the Wu family, he was already cold now and became a dead person. What's the use of a dead person?"

Liu Wen saw Xiao Shan away while watching Xiao Shan walk away, and he thought that this was true. If the Wu master and apprentice were not dead, he would still gain some benefits by revealing the news to Yuan Xiong, and perhaps even more shocking the left and right bans. But at present, no matter what the identity of the Wu master and apprentice are secrets, since Li Buzhuo took the ruthless killing of those two people, the matter was over. Taking the news of the two dead people to offend Li Buzhuo was purely a loss-making deal.

………………………………………

When the carriage returned to Shenzhasi, Li Buzhuo bandaged the wound on his leg and sent the body to the morgue.

The punishment of Shenzhasi is so fierce that it is famous among the sixteen states of Fuli. At present, nearly 100 prisoners seized from the two counties are locked up in the dungeon of the Thirteenth Department. The crimes committed by the prisoners are mostly secret books, privately learning the Qi-refining method, and colluding with different parties. The dungeon environment is extremely poor and the ventilation is poor. Even a middle-aged man can be sick if he stays in a few days. Those prisoners who have been imprisoned for a long time are inevitably suffering from serious diseases and die in prison, so the fresh corpses in the morgue are never short of stock.

There are roughly two ways to deal with corpses in the morgue. If you die from a disease, you will burn the body with clothes to prevent the plague. If you die due to external injuries, you will be thrown into a mass grave three miles away, left by the old dynasty.

It is said that Wu Han is suspected to be a prince of the previous dynasty. Even if he dies, he should have written a document and notified his subordinates to thoroughly investigate the matter. But at present, Li Buzhuo is the largest official in the Thirteenth Division. No one except him dares to overthrow him and contact the left and right bans. The real cause of death of the master and disciple of the Wu family can be hidden.

When the body decays, the truth of this matter will be ruined in the mass grave.

At dusk, the cart carrying the corpse was parked by the crowded pit. In addition to Li Buzhuo, the escorts also had a small flag who specialized in handling the corpse. This small flag was a confidant of Sun Chongde, the deputy Qianhu Sun, but Li Buzhuo deliberately brought him over. After all, killing the Wu master and apprentice was a little strange in the eyes of Sun Wenshu Xiao Shan and others. If Li Buzhuo came alone when dealing with the corpse and did not allow outsiders to follow, he would only increase suspicion.

"When the matter is settled, I will pick up your bones and get the burial back. Sorry."

When the crowd was trapped, Li Buzhuo threw Wu Xin's body down and watched him fall into the pile of bones, and silently recited in his heart.

Then, when he pushed Wu Han's body down, Li Buzhuo patted his chest without moving.

The inner qi that sealed Wu Han's qi veins was slapped by him. Wu Han's breath, which was already exhausted, was slightly slight, but it was very weak. Li Buzhuo coughed just right and stopped looking at Wu Han. He turned around and left, calling the small flag that followed him to deal with the corpse, frowned.

The little flag was carrying a copper incense burning with mugwort. He didn't notice Wu Han's movements, and did not doubt it. He smiled and said with apologies: "It's the first time that sir. There is a poisonous miasma in this place. In the past, even wild beasts and birds would not approach it. Every time his subordinates threw away their bodies, they would never stay for a long time."

Li Buzhuo smelled the smell of mugwort in the incense burner, his face calmed down, nodded, and let the little flag leave with him.

Just as Li Buzhuo and Xiaoqi left with the cart, Wu Han, who was hit by the protruding rocks on the pit wall, moaned and saw a crescent moon covered by miasma in the vast sky, and opened his eyes with great difficulty.
