Chapter 189 [Pawns] (Part 1)

Yan Tianxin knew that after experiencing the terrifying scene today, a shadow would appear in everyone's heart. This shadow might accompany you for life and become a nightmare that some people can't get rid of. This is how Martha was. Since she came here, she walked into the room alone and has not yet gone out.

Luo Lie also remembered Martha, and came to her door with Yan Tianxin to ask her to have dinner. Before Yan Tianxin knocked on the door, Luo Lie had a premonition in his heart and whispered: "Not good..."

Martha actually left without saying goodbye. There was a note on the table with thank you, I'm leaving!

Yan Tianxin sighed inwardly that she was too negligent. It must have been when she was cutting Luo Lie's hair just now. Martha took the opportunity to leave, just because she blamed herself for less attention. Her tribe members were no longer there, and it would be extremely unsafe to be alone in this dangerous place. Yan Tianxin said: "I'll go out and look for it."

Luo Lie shook his head and said, "No need, Martha should have her reason to leave."

Yan Tianxin couldn't help but think about the incident where he shot Desily. Could it be that Martha could not face him because of this?

Luo Lie patted Yan Tianxin on the shoulder and said, "Let's plan well. The most urgent thing is to find Princess Longyu's body."

Ma Yongping looked at Ma Yongqing in front of her. Now she has returned to her usual dress as a noble lady. When she just returned from the Gobi Desert, she was disheveled and embarrassed, almost completely different from now. Ma Yongqing was also looking at Ma Yongping, and she felt unprecedentedly calm. It was this man who she called her brother who gave her to Yan Tuojiang with one hand and once gave her an extremely beautiful promise. She couldn't remember some things, but she had a question in her heart. Since he cared about himself so much, why did he let a blind man rob him?

If he had to force him in the past, but now he has successfully seized Yan Tuojiang's military power, and his goal is within reach, all he can do is just a public announcement. The actual controller of the military power of the new Manchu camp actually lets a blind man rob her from the Magistrate's Mansion in full view of the public. This is unreasonable. This makes her inevitably not have other ideas. The birds are hidden, and the rabbits are dead and the dogs are cooked. Perhaps he has become a burden to Ma Yongping, and he just took this opportunity to get rid of himself.

Ma Yongping squeezed out a smile and said, "Yongqing, how did you escape from the blind man?"

Ma Yongqing wanted to answer him, but immediately realized that she should use another method to respond. Her nose began to flap, and she tilted her lips and covered her face and started crying.

When Ma Yongping saw her appearance, he was naturally not easy to continue asking questions. He secretly guessed that she must have suffered a lot of grievances. He was about to comfort him, but a servant walked in and whispered in his ear.

Ma Yongping nodded, first asked someone to send Ma Yongqing back to rest, then got up and went to the flower hall in the front yard.

The person who came suddenly was Tan Zicong. After the separation of Ximen, he and Luo Lie did not come to the Supervisor's Mansion directly, but went to his home in Xinmanying first. Tan Zicong was not confused. What happened today was too amazing. If he went directly to the Supervisor's Mansion to inform him, he might not be able to win the trust of Ma Yongping. So he planned to go back to see the old man Tan Tiande first, tell the old man what happened, ask for his opinion before making a decision. He never thought that the old man had gone out early in the morning and had not yet returned home, so he could only come to meet Ma Yongping alone.

Ma Yongping looked down on Tan Tiande and his son from the bottom of his heart. Although the father and son helped and made some efforts in the process of usurping military power, the father and son were really lacking in ability. Even their old nest, Hongshi Village, could be taken away by the bandits of Lianyun Village. But Ma Yongping is still inseparable from these people. After all, some shameful things need them to do.

When Tan Zicong saw Ma Yongping coming in from outside the door, he hurriedly stood up. In the past, he and Ma Yongping were once called brothers, but now they are different from the past. Now Ma Yongping has become the actual ruler of Xinman City and has successfully controlled the military power. Sooner or later, he will be the guardian of Yantuogang, Gansu and Border Ningxia. In the future, this vast land will be the leader of him. Tan Zicong called out: "General Ma."

Ma Yongping smiled slightly. He saw Tan Zicong's respect for him. His efforts over the years were finally rewarded. For this day, he endured humiliation and even offered his favorite woman. Others saw his glory today. Who knew what efforts he had made behind his back, and said kindly: "Zicong is back."

Tan Zicong said: "I'm back."

Ma Yongping sat down and saw Tan Zicong still standing, and greeted: "Sit!"

Tan Zicong then sat down.

Ma Yongping said: "How is the situation in Yabri?"

Tan Zicong's face was a little fevered. After all, losing his nest is not a glorious thing. He whispered: "They are very alert. Several of our actions were discovered in advance. I suspect that something was wrong with us and someone was venting them."

Ma Yongping nodded and said, "The most feared thing is internal problems, but you don't have to worry. When the matter in Xinman Camp stabilizes, I will send troops to help you regain Hongshi Village."

If it were before today, Tan Zicong would probably be grateful to Ma Yongping, but now his concern is not Hongshizhai. He said carefully: "I encountered some trouble on the way back today."

Ma Yongping frowned and turned his inquiry eyes to Tan Zicong.

Tan Zicong said: "I met some Tajik people on the way. They were like walking corpses, and they attacked people wildly." At this point, he deliberately paused for a moment and quietly observed Ma Yongping's expression.

Ma Yongping's brows frowned more and more violently. Tan Zicong's words attracted his attention. He couldn't help but think of the soldiers who were crazy in the Heilong Temple and whispered: "Tell me clearly."

Tan Zicong deliberately did not mention Fang Pingzhi's incident because he didn't know whether Ma Yongping would believe him, and all the soldiers Fang Pingzhi brought were crazy. Will Ma Yongping take the account on his head? After thinking about it, he still lied.

Tan Zicong said: "We met six Tajik people. They were like us who were hiding from the wind and sand in Laoyingpan. But somehow, one of them suddenly went crazy and tear and bite people around him. Someone was bitten to death on the spot. But strangely, the person who was bitten to death came over quickly. He also went crazy and began to attack others."

Ma Yongping's expression became extremely gloomy when he heard this: "Seriously?"

Tan Zicong nodded and said, "After those people went crazy, not only had strong attack power, but they were not afraid of bullets. It was okay for bullets to hit them. Only by shooting them in the heads can they be killed." In fact, Tan Zicong had heard Fang Pingzhi say before that before Fang Pingzhi left Xinman Camp, he had visited one of his subordinates, who was bitten in Heilong Temple.

Ma Yongping nodded and said, "Are you sure you are in Laoyingpan? What's the situation there now?"

Tan Zicong said: "I finally escaped. I don't know what it looks like now. I'm just worried that if those crazy people enter Xinman City, I'm afraid..."

Ma Yongping suddenly stood up and said, "Come with me!"

The place where Ma Yongping took Tan Zicong to be in the dungeon near the Grand Marshal's Mansion. When he walked into the dungeon, Tan Zicong heard a miserable howl. Ma Yongping took him to one of the cells. In the cell, a man with blood on his face was desperately hitting the iron fence with his head, and he was missing an ear.

Ma Yongping shone the man's face with a flashlight. The man showed fear of the light, staggered backwards, covering his face with both hands.

Tan Zicong said: "That's what they look like, most of them are like this."

Ma Yongping nodded, he clapped his hands, and the lights in the dungeon were on. Tan Zicong looked up and saw that there were people in the more than ten cells that looked inward from here. All of them were in a daze and made all kinds of crazy actions in the cell.

Ma Yongping said: "These people are all my soldiers."

Tan Zicong said in a trembling voice: "How many people have become like this?"

Ma Yongping said: "Fifteen people have been found, and six others were shot dead on the spot." He has tried his best to control the development of the situation. From the moment, it is quite good. Ma Yongping didn't know what happened, but he just speculated about the rough transmission of this crazy disease, so he sent all the infected people here to imprison.

Tan Zicong said: "General Ma, we must take action as soon as possible to eliminate all these infected people. Only in this way can we eliminate hidden dangers."

Ma Yongping nodded, turned around and left the dungeon. Tan Zicong quickly escaped with him and came outside. The moonlight was as bright as water and the sky was full of frost. Ma Yongping looked at the moon in the sky with his hands on his back and whispered: "I thought there were only so many people infected."

Tan Zicong said: "There are still many in the Laoyingpan, so the general needs to make a quick decision."

Ma Yongping did not make any statement.

Tan Zicong said: "They are afraid of light and they will be particularly excited and active once they reach the dark. As long as we take action as soon as possible and eliminate all infected people, the situation will not be too bad."

Ma Yongping looked at Tan Zicong's eyes with admiration, but this expression made Tan Zicong's heart sank. He began to realize that he might have said too much.

Ma Yongping said: "Zicong, I have something I want you to help."

Tan Zicong had already guessed what Ma Yongping wanted to say, but it was too late for him to make up for it.

Ma Yongping said: "I have always regarded you as a good friend and good brother, with your lips and teeth interdependent, and your lips are dead and your teeth are cold. This matter is very important. If the news is leaked, it will inevitably cause great panic, so I cannot dispatch the army for the time being. Zicong, I want you to lead your troops to Laoyingpan to wipe out those people."
