these years.

I always dream about it at midnight.

He would see his son, the seventeen-year-old boy...

Whenever she saw him, her originally smiling face would become hideous and ferocious!

He was like the underworld of hell, and every word he said was shed with tears!

"Why...why wasn't you the one who died...why!"

Every time I wake up from a dream, it is a severe mental torture.

There was not a day that went by when he didn't feel regret and blame himself.

If he hadn't delayed his trip, his Qing Ge'er wouldn't have died...

There won’t be any bodies left to be found.

Now that there is a glimmer of hope, Erlangzi must come to confirm it!

Even if he has to crawl! He will crawl over here! To confirm it himself!

Erlangzi looked at everyone in the crowd with a sharp gaze.

"father……"

A trembling voice made Erlangzi's heart tighten...

"father……"

Erlangzi stayed where he was and slowly turned his head towards the source of the sound.

"father!"

This is...his child?

The original fair-skinned boy, the original high-spirited boy?

Tears burst out of Erlangzi's eyes without warning.

Just staring blankly at the person in front of me.

He was thin, his face was haggard, his eyes were lifeless, and he looked a little older than me...

Trembling in the wind, the exposed skin is covered with scars...

Erlangzi moved his lips with difficulty.

"Qing brother..."

"is it you?"

Yang Qing's lips were cracked and tears were on her cheeks, stinging them painfully.

"Dad...it's me..."

Erlangzi could no longer control himself and broke away from the villagers who were supporting him.

He held Yang Qing tightly in his arms!

"My...son..."

The emotions accumulated over the past few years completely exploded at this moment!

Not only him, but other families who had lost their children and recovered their children also hugged each other and cried their hearts out.

Except for themselves, perhaps no one can understand that feeling.

I thought we were separated forever, but it turned out to be just a conspiracy...

Thinking that his loved one had passed away, he was heartbroken and cried all day long in the village, mourning his loved one.

But he was right beside me!

Ten or so miles! Only a dozen or so miles away...

He is living a life worse than death over there, how hard it must be...

So many years of suffering, so many years of repression...

Let them deal with themselves...

Nangong Muchen and Su Jiuyue stood quietly by the side without saying a word.

Tears flickered in his eyes.

Xu wiped her tears.

"These damn people...are not human beings...A good child..."

Su Jiuyue patted Xu's back comfortingly.

She also learned about it from the villagers these days.

Gouwazi and Xu have been married for many years but have no children, which has always been a concern for the couple.

Now, seeing a good child being tortured to the point of being unrecognizable, it is unbearable to watch...

Nangong Muchen pursed his lips tightly, and no one knew what he was thinking.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, the mission to save Redwood Village, "Rescue the Widow", has been completed, current progress: 60%]

The system prompt sounded, but Su Jiuyue remained expressionless, immersed in her emotions.

"Master Nangong, I have done what I promised you. I don't care who is behind this. I hope you can fulfill your promise as soon as possible."

Nangong Muchen looked at the woman with tears in her eyes, and for some reason, his heart tightened.

"Don't worry, Miss Su. I will bring that thief to justice soon."

……

In the county government office, the county magistrate had a frown on his face.

Today, a group of soldiers suddenly came and took the county magistrate away.

The truth must have been revealed!

He was worried all day, afraid that the prairie fire would burn him.

I don’t know who this god is, but he even dares to touch that person!

In the end, the door of the county government was pushed open.

A hint of purple caught the county magistrate's eyes.

The county magistrate collapsed instantly, fell to his knees on the ground, and crawled on the ground, trembling all over.

"The North, or the South, I forgive you for doing nothing and not taking any action in the whole matter, so I allow you to choose a place for yourself."

The cold voice without a trace of emotion made the county magistrate fall into an ice cellar...

After a long while, the county magistrate finally managed to utter a sentence.

"You are just a hostage of another country. What right do you have to deal with our officials?"

Nangong Muchen chuckled when he heard this.

In his hand, he was playing with a jade token.

After the county magistrate saw the jade token clearly, he was shocked!

The jade plaque was sparkling in the sunlight, and four large, powerful characters could be vaguely seen on it.

Cheap

It's over...it's all over...

This token is used everywhere, as if His Majesty is here in person...

Your Majesty actually gave a token to a hostage of another country to do things at his convenience. What can that person use to fight back?

The county magistrate slumped on the ground, seemingly without any strength left.

"Put it down."

……

The dead person suddenly returned to the village after venting his emotions.

It is great joy!

Redwood Village decided to hold a big banquet to celebrate the joy of regaining what was lost.

The whole village has changed from its former lifeless atmosphere.

There was laughter and joy everywhere.

A group of officials came over, carrying several trays.

The originally lively scene suddenly became quiet.

Everyone looked at them sideways, wondering what this group of officials were here for.

Su Jiuyue looked at the leader, who was Liushui, a subordinate of Nangong Tower Master who had acted together that day.

It seems that the problem with Nangong Muchen has been resolved!

The villagers naturally recognized him. It was him who sent their relatives back.

Therefore, we are also particularly enthusiastic.

He kept inviting them to take their seats.

Liu Shui smiled and declined.

"Fellow villagers, I appreciate your kindness, but I have work to do, so I won't eat. I came here to announce the outcome of the Redwood Village case to everyone."

Upon hearing this, the villagers all sat up straight.

Waiting for the running water to read out.

Liushui cleared his throat.

"Shen Chousheng, a merchant from Hezhang County, defrauded villagers, committed murder for money. He is sentenced to have all his property confiscated, be paraded through the streets, and be executed soon."

"Bangshui County Magistrate Wu Zhongjin colluded with others, deceived his superiors and subordinates, and concealed the tragic incident in Hongshan Village where a large wild beast injured and killed many people. He is sentenced to thirty strokes of the cane and taken to the capital of the gods. He will be severely punished after the person behind the incident is found out."

"Yang Wei, the magistrate of Bangshui County, was in office but did not govern the country. He flattered his superiors and subordinates and did nothing. As a result, the people of Hongshan Village had no place to appeal and suffered injustice for several years. He was dismissed from office and exiled to the southern wilderness."

"In addition, considering that the villagers of Hongshan Village have suffered greatly for many years, we will exempt them from taxes for three years, return the money that Shen Chousheng cheated from Hongshan Village, and provide relief funds to each family based on the population."

When Xingyun finished speaking, everyone was excited!

Some even burst into tears.

"My Lord, the Great Lord..."

"Long live, long live, long live!"

"Thank you, Lord Qingtian, for your consideration. Lord Qingtian is so mighty!"

Redwood Village has been through a lot these years...

Now the imperial court not only dealt with the culprit, but also compensated them for the price difference of redwood that Shen Chou Sheng had falsely reported, and gave them pensions!

There was joy on everyone's face, as if there was hope in life again.

Su Jiuyue also raised her lips.

Nangong Muchen is quite reliable in doing things.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, the mission to save Redwood Village, 'Eliminate the traitors', is completed, current progress: 80%]

Hearing the system's broadcast, Su Jiuyue frowned.

Eighty percent?

Those who should be killed should be killed, those who should be rescued should be rescued, and those who should be sentenced should be sentenced!

What else do you need to do?

Do I have to lead them to become rich?

No way? Are you kidding me?

My own village is still so poor? Why do you want me to come here to develop the economy?

Su Jiuyue looked up at the sky speechlessly. Sure enough, it was a system task!

Not so well done!!!

No wonder the reward is so generous, it turns out they didn’t plan to give it!

……

The government prison.

Nangong Muchen looked at the people who were vomiting in the cell with a strange expression.

The emotion in his eyes was unclear.

Liu Shui pinched his nose.

"These people were found outside the dark cave where the Redwood Village villagers were imprisoned. I don't know who did it, but they all fainted at the entrance of the cave. When they woke up, their bodies were numb. After a while, they looked like this... Should we find a doctor to treat them?"

It’s not that Liushui is kindhearted, he’s afraid that these people will vomit to death and won’t make it to the Dali Temple in the capital…

Nangong Muchen pursed his lips as he listened to him describe the symptoms of several people.

This damn familiar feeling...

He rubbed his thumb, his eyes revealing deep doubts...

"No need."

He said two words calmly and walked out of the cell...
