Hanhou

The Xiongnu envoys and Chang'an's selection team left one after another, because the number of caravans due to their arrival also gradually decreased.The military market and horse market in Yunzhong City resumed their old routines. The city flag had just been raised for a few days, and the border residents who came and went to and from the city decreased by [-]%. At first glance, it seemed a bit deserted.

On the day the girl left, many families saw her off by the roadside.The elders and members of the Wei clan are also among them.Knowing that Wei Qing'e hadn't registered his name, and that he lost the selection on the same day, everyone was shocked.

"Flawed face? How is it possible!"

Among the clansmen, some have been to Wei's village and met Wei Qingmo face to face.Although it was nearly a year apart, I still remember the girl's appearance clearly.Even if she is not beautiful enough, she can still be called a middle-aged figure. Based on her family background, more than [-]% of them may be selected.

How could there be a flaw in the face?

"Could it be self-injury?" a clansman whispered.

The clan elder's complexion was slightly gloomy, and he was a little uncertain.

But in a few days, the new injury must be seen.In the old days, there was an old rule that a girl who lost the election would be held accountable.Up to now, there has been no news, either Wei Qing'e really has an old injury on his face, which hinders his appearance, or he has thought of other methods.

"Elder, what should I do?" Some clansmen were timid, and they inevitably felt anxious.

If Wei Qingmo went to Chang'an, everyone would divide the fields and houses, and everything would be fine.Now that she didn't leave, she stayed in Yunzhong County, and there were several healthy servants under her command. If she wanted to take revenge on her clansmen, who could guarantee that she wouldn't be found?

"After going back, take Wei Ji and the three of them to the big house, and I will inquire personally."

The elders of the clan had no idea, and their expectations of dedicating themselves to a good woman had also diminished a lot.

The reason for this mentality is that Wei Qing'er's failure was one of the reasons, and the eunuch's attitude made him even more puzzled.Thinking of all the events of that day, I inexplicably felt that Mrs. Wei might not be successful, and might even cause disaster.

There was something on their minds, so they didn't dare to stay longer, and hurried all the way back to the village at the fastest speed.

During this period of time, the three families of Wei Ji have been closely guarded, and they don't know any news from the outside world.Estimating and choosing a date, predicting that things are irreversible, and thinking about the possible consequences are all depressing.

"Wei Ling, did Mr. Zhao Lang say to let my three families go?" Wei Chuan whispered.

"That's true." Wei Ling sat up, leaned on the eldest son, and nodded with difficulty.

"But you and I have been imprisoned for the past few days, and we haven't been able to send out any news. If Qing Moth is really elected, and Zhao Langjun is furious, it may not be..."

Before Wei Chuan finished speaking, the door suddenly opened from the outside.

The harsh sunlight penetrated from outside the door, illuminating the dim room.

Being in the darkness for a long time, there was really no light, so the four instinctively raised their arms to cover their eyes.

"Come out, the elder has something to ask!"

The clansmen were not polite to Wei Ji and the others, they directly grabbed their arms and dragged them out of the house.

Passing by the house where their wives and children were held, they suddenly heard heart-piercing howls.Immediately afterwards, there was a dull knocking sound in the room.The wooden door was forced open, and a woman rushed out of the door with a blue-faced child in her arms, running and crying all the way, like crazy.

"Save my son, save my son's life!"

Seeing the woman, Wei Chuan's expression changed suddenly, and he disregarded the pull of his clansmen, dislocated his arm and rushed to the woman.

"Wife, what's wrong with Ah Tong? What's wrong?!"

The woman regained consciousness for a short while, recognized the person in front of her as Wei Chuan, and cried loudly: "My dear friend, Ah Tong is sick, and I have been begging for several days, but they have always ignored me and refused to find a doctor. Cut off food and water!"

"what?!"

Wei Chuan caressed the child's cheek with trembling hands, the tentacles were icy cold, and the child had lost all breath.

"Son, son!"

The couple hugged each other and cried.

Wei Chuan and his wife had three children, the first two had already died, only this one seedling was left, and now it died in vain, at the hands of the tribe, how could he not hate it!

After the woman, Wei Ji and Wei Ling's family members also left one after another.

In just a few days, they were all in shape and haggard.Several children were sick, and they could hardly stand still when they followed their mothers.

"How dare you, how dare you?!"

Wei Chuan's eyes were red, dragging his injured arm, he rushed towards the clansman beside him.

The people in the clan didn't feel any sympathy for what happened to these three families. Instead, they sneered, kicked Wei Chuan to the ground, and spat hard: "Eating food from the inside out deserves the death of children and grandchildren!"

Wei Ji and Wei Ling roared at the same time, and were about to rush towards the clansman who uttered evil words.Not wanting to be stopped by seven or eight young men, Wei Ling's eldest son was kicked to the ground together with a burst of punches and kicks.

When everyone stopped, they were all in a mess, their faces were red and swollen, and blood flowed from their mouths and noses.

Wei Ling's eldest son still had strength and wanted to stand up, but was held down by Wei Ji.

Wei Ji spoke with difficulty, his voice low and inaudible: "Stay alive, wait, Qiu!"

Due to the severe injury, Wei Ji had difficulty speaking.Wei Ling and Wei Chuan understood what he meant, they stopped roaring and gave up struggling, letting their clansmen drag them forward.Hearing the cries of his wife and children, and thinking of what happened to his family, hatred welled up in his heart, and his eyes were red with anger.

Inside the big house, the clan elders were whispering something.Hearing the sound and seeing the three Wei Ji family being brought here, they all looked ugly.

"Who moved the hand? How can you ask questions like this?"

The young and strong were silent, and the clan elder reprimanded them, but they didn't continue to pursue the matter. They brought several buckets of water and poured them on the three members of Wei Ji's family.

"To be honest, I'll let you leave."

"Say... what?" Wei Ji looked up at the clan elder, his eyes bloodshot.

"The three of you should have seen Wei Qingmo in recent months. Is there any injury on her face?" said the elder clan.

Hearing this, Wei Ji felt inexplicable at first, then suddenly a thought flashed through his mind, he laughed and said, "She wasn't selected, Wei Qing'e wasn't selected?"

The clan elder looked ugly, and immediately a young man stepped forward and kicked Wei Ji hard.Wei Ji didn't seem to feel the pain, he was still laughing like crazy.

The black woman walked out of the crowd, walked up to the clan elders, and saluted, "Elder, Wei Ji is so determined that he won't be able to ask anything. These three families are full of resentment and cannot be allowed to live."

Wei Qingmo lost the election, and the black woman caught up with her daughter, but the poisonous scheme failed.She guessed that the matter had nothing to do with Zhao Jia, and she even resented Wei Ji and the three who tipped off the news.The clan elder's intention was to extricate the three families from the clan, but the black woman had to cut the grass and root out the root, so as to eliminate the hatred in her heart.

"Not staying?" The clan elder showed hesitation.

"The elder should not be soft-hearted, if the lives of the three of his family are left behind, it will be a serious disaster for the family!" The black woman spoke eloquently.

"But Sha Lingwei..."

"Elder, Wei Qingmo is just an orphan girl, so what if there are sons of the Zhao clan to help? The Yangshou Wei clan has nearly a hundred people, and there are eight young and strong males. He also has relatives and old friends. How can he be a mere child?"

The black woman spared no effort to persuade, but the clan elder hadn't made a statement yet, and the clansmen present were persuaded one after another, and tried to persuade them one after another.

Seeing that the patriarch still couldn't make up his mind, the black woman leaned into the ear of an elderly woman and whispered: "Kill the three families, make the women and children dumb, sell them to other counties as children, and then divide them up." Field house."

The older woman struggled, but the black woman grabbed her wrist and threatened: "You blame Wei Chuan's woman for not marrying your idiot, deliberately not looking for a doctor, and not giving her water for a few days, which has killed her son." If you let her live, don't you know it's not a disaster?"

A trace of panic flashed across the elderly woman's expression, and her gaze swept over Wei Chuan's wife who was in a mess, and soon became cold and hard.

Seeing the woman walking towards a young man, he whispered a few times in his ear, and the latter walked towards a clan elder, and conveyed all the woman's words, the black woman raised the corners of her mouth in satisfaction, and hid behind others again.

The clan elders exchanged opinions with each other, and quickly reached a consensus: the selection team had already left, and Wei Qing's defeat was a foregone conclusion, proving that her methods were useless.For the current plan, first deal with the three Wei Ji family members, and report that they died at the mouth of wild beasts, so as to prevent them from tipping off the news.Then try to get rid of Zhao Jia.Without the protection of Zhao's son, it would be easy to manipulate an orphan girl.

"If you do it, you must do it!"

In the past, there was a severe drought in the county. In order to fight for water, Wei's hands were not without lives.Now the elders of the clan are ruthless, and the clansmen are also showing greed. They are determined to grab it by force if they can't get it.They regard Sha Lingwei's property as their own, and they will not give up until they get it!

"Go and keep an eye on Shaling County. Let the son of the Zhao family not leave the house. Once he leaves the house, pretend to be a bandit and kill him!"

There are often tens of miles of uninhabited areas in border counties. As long as they are kept secret and no evidence is left, no matter how hard they are investigated, they will not be found.

The members of the Wei clan acted separately, like a group of wolves about to devour people.Wei Ji and others were locked up again. This time, the three families were locked together.

When the door was closed, Wei Ji let the women and children continue to cry, and he pulled Wei Chuan and Wei Ling together, and discussed in a low voice, trying to find a way out.

"If we don't let us live, they don't want to live!" Wei Chuan lost his son and was already on the verge of madness. "Set fire, how many people can be burned to death! At worst, we will die together!"

"We can't let them be so happy!" Wei Ji narrowed his eyes and said, "Let's find a way to get out, go to Shaling County to find Mr. Zhao Lang, and tell all these things. This Yangshou Wei family, one counts as one, don't even think about getting away !"

After the three agreed, let the woman continue to cry loudly, called the eldest son, who was able to exert strength, and closed their eyes to rest together, planning to escape at night.

The guards heard the cries of many women, but they didn't notice anything unusual. They planned with each other how to fight for more fields, and even mentioned the women of Wei Ji, and laughed lowly, with very malicious intentions.

The sun is setting, and night is coming soon.

Covered by clouds, there is no starlight in the sky.

The wooden door was opened, and several young men walked in, ready to drag Wei Ji and Wei Ling's eldest son out.There were two other people who didn't move in their footsteps. Looking at the woman in the wooden house, they let out creepy and weird smiles.Qing Zhuang watched the two frowning, but did not speak to stop them.Anyway, these women and children will be sold, so just let them go.

"Do it!" Wei Ji suddenly yelled, and Wei Ling and Wei Chuan, who were both full of strength, jumped up at the same time, grabbing Qingzhuang's eyes with both hands, biting off the other's throat amidst the latter's screams, grabbing Pass the opponent's dagger.

The woman begged for mercy loudly, even suppressing the screams of Qing Zhuang, but her hands grabbed the other party fiercely.As long as the children could move, they would follow their mothers and bite the thighs of these villains.

Qing Zhuang also became ruthless, unable to kill the three of Wei Ji, he directly swung the knife at the child, and cut off an arm of Wei Ji's youngest son on the spot.

The wooden house was located in a remote location, and the screams could be heard in the night. The clansmen thought it was because the young man was not quick enough, so they muttered a few words, turned over on the couch, and covered their ears with their hands.

Wei Ji and others risked their lives and killed all the young and strong present.

The three families were also covered in blood, like evil spirits who had just stepped out of hell.

"Take off their clothes." Wei Ji's face was covered with blood, and when he spoke, he could still taste the rust in his mouth.

The three families acted quickly, quickly put the young and strong short brown on their bodies, and then put their bodies on the cart outside the door.The child was hidden in the car, led by Wei Ji and the others, and the woman pushed behind.

The cart was getting closer and closer to the gate, and the gatekeeper held up the torch, only to see a few people with blood on their faces pulling the cart, their facial features were not clear at all.Asked, but only heard a vague response.Thinking of the clan elder's instructions before, and realizing what was in the car, he shivered immediately, not daring to ask a word, opened the gate with trembling hands, and let the group of people out.

Illuminated by the fire, I found that the person pushing the cart was not in the right shape. The gatekeeper became vigilant, and when he tried to speak again, he was suddenly thrown to the ground by two women. Before he could scream, his tongue was pulled out of his mouth , His throat was bitten off.

"Come on!"

Putting the gatekeeper's body on the car, Wei Ji held a torch and told everyone to speed up.

Leaving the gate and throwing away the cart, the three families supported each other and ran hundreds of meters to a sparsely populated Yulin. They finally felt exhausted and fell to the ground one by one.

At this moment, a torch was suddenly lit in the forest, followed by the clear sound of horseshoes.

Wei Jiyilin, struggling to stand up, saw the boy and girl in front of him, his tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and wanted to wipe off the blood on his face with his muddy hands, but found that the blood had already dried into lumps .

"Zhao Langjun, Qing... girl."

In the light of the flames, Zhao Jia and Wei Qing'er were carrying bows and arrows, and the servants behind them filled their quiveres with daggers on their waists.

Guessing what they were here for, the three families all showed joy. The woman in Weichuan wanted to laugh, but her voice was choked in her throat, and she could only point to the village. Her mouth kept opening and closing. From the shape of her mouth, she It's saying "kill them all".

Looking at the three families, Zhao Jia had a complicated expression.

According to his original plan, he wanted to kill the mastermind, and then deliver the identified crimes of the Wei family to the official temple, leading the clansmen to report and bite each other, and the official temple would impose heavy punishments.

If the evidence of the crime is conclusive, a man will be flogged even if he is not dead, and sent to be a city dan, and a woman will be punished for a minor crime.With the hard labor he undertakes, it is lucky to live for five years.If you dare to escape, you will be shot and killed by the guards immediately.As for the remaining children, they can all be sent to the horse farm.

Wei Qing'er rejected his proposal.

"Aduo is still soft-hearted. Since we are going to do it, we shouldn't leave any hidden danger." After all, a thin scar was left on the girl's face.When speaking, fingers will touch unconsciously.

Wei Qiu wanted to adjust the powder, but Wei Qingmo shook his head.

This scar has different meanings to her, reminding her all the time that if she wants to live, she must not be soft-hearted!

In the end, Zhao Jia was persuaded by Wei Qing'e to change his plan and prepare to do it tonight.Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived outside the village, they met three families who had escaped.

After some hardships, the hearts of the three families changed.Even children with blood on their hands, not to mention the woman who bit off the gatekeeper's throat without blinking.

"Lang Jun, they agreed to kill you and the girl." Wei Ji leaned on an elm tree and said forcefully, "If you do it tonight, sir, the three of my family can prove that there are bandits and savages fleeing in the clan. The three of us fought desperately to survive."

Zhao Jia didn't speak, just stared at Wei Ji.

Wei Ji gritted his teeth fiercely, and simply fell on the ground: "Ji is willing to be the son of Mr. Lang, and I only ask Mr. Lang to help me avenge and save my family's life!"

Wei Chuan leaned beside Wei Ji, with a fierce face on his face: "Mr. Sir, they killed my son, I want revenge! What Mr. Lang cannot do, I will do it!"

Wei Chuan's wife leaned against Wei Chuan, raised her head, her eyes were more fierce than her husband's.

"I'm going to kill them all!"

Zhao Jiace immediately stepped forward and tapped Wei Ji with the whip.

Without further ado, Wei Ji grabbed the dagger he snatched from Qing Zhuang's hand, turned his head to look at the village in the dark, his eyes were full of fierceness: "Mr. Lang, there are no other villages in a radius of more than ten miles, only wild beasts. I'll wait to leave At that time, the gate was not closed, and I thought the beasts would go in following the smell of blood."

Speaking of this, Wei Ji turned his head and looked at the young son who had lost one arm, with a ferocious expression on his face: "There is no need for wild beasts now, I want to kill the black woman and the clan elders with my own hands, and avenge my son!"

In the village, most people are still sleeping soundly, dreaming of making a fortune.Little did they know that the danger had come, Wei Ji and the others held short knives and returned back the same way like ferocious beasts, getting closer and closer to the gate.
