"Run!"

I don’t know who shouted, but Lu Qingqing didn’t have time to think about it and immediately rushed into the shop nearby!

Lu Yuanzheng and Liang Pei followed closely behind!

As soon as the two men stood still, there were bursts of loud noises outside, followed by crackling sounds. It was a fireball that fell on the shop and ignited the things inside!

Lu Qingqing quickly looked outside and saw thick black smoke rising and nothing could be seen outside.

Lu Qingqing was in a terrible state, with arrows raining down and fireballs flying around!

What on earth do these beasts want to do?

Also, where are all the government officials now?

People have stood up and are pooping and pissing on top of their heads, yet they just let these beasts do whatever they want. What are they thinking?

In fact, what Lu Qingqing didn't know was that someone in the government office was colluding with the Huns and had knocked out all the soldiers, including the prefect.

As early as when the Huns launched a rain of arrows, all the government officials were captured alive by the Huns!

There were probably more than a thousand people in total. The Huns could not bear to deal with so many people, so they killed some insignificant soldiers.

Including the disaster victims who were captured by the government as soldiers, they were killed one by one.

Many disaster victims didn’t know what happened until the moment they died?

The remaining people who were not killed were important government officials. The Huns tied their hands and feet with wire and drove them to gather in the middle of the street.

The Huns were preparing to burn them at the stake there!

The several fireballs that suddenly flew up in the sky just now were a custom among the Huns.

They have a ritual of sacrifice, where they throw a fireball as a sacrifice to their ancestors before killing an important person.

Meaning: In the next war, the ancestors will surely bless them with victory and prosperity!

He threw eight fireballs in total and then stopped.

At this time, the thick black smoke outside had dissipated, but there were still shops burning, making crackling sounds.

Hearing that there was no movement outside, the three of them hurried to the window to look at the situation outside.

Liang Pei lifted the messy black hair covering his eyes from his forehead, and looked at the horrible scene destroyed by the fireball with his inky black eyes. He seemed to remember something and suddenly spoke:

"The people in the government were probably kicked out by them."

Lu Qingqing placed the bow and arrow on the ground, looked at him in confusion:

"how do you know?"

Liang Pei looked at her, was silent for a while, and said: "A few years ago, the Xiongnu and the border were still living in harmony. My brother was stationed at the border. I once went to the border to visit him. I heard from the people over there that the Xiongnu had the custom of throwing fireballs as a sacrifice before killing important people!"

These were also Liang Pei's guesses.

Otherwise, the government officials would not allow the Huns to be so presumptuous. Even if it was just for show, they had to do it for the court to see!

But they didn't do it, which shows that they are definitely in great danger.

If Liang Pei hadn't said it, Lu Qingqing and Lu Yuanzheng would not have known that this group of beasts who kill people without blinking an eye actually have such a shitty custom!

However, she was not worried about their customs, but was just curious about the actions of the government.

"What on earth do they have? They haven't even started cooking yet, but someone has already taken over the pot?"

Liang Pei heard that when the Xiongnu invaded Fuzhou, all the government officials were wiped out by them. He immediately said thoughtfully:

"I'm afraid the government officials and the Xiongnu bandits are colluding with each other, otherwise it's impossible that the government officials didn't make any moves at all."

As soon as Liang Pei said this, Lu Qingqing and Lu Yuanzheng's faces suddenly changed.

If the Huns continue to take such measures and massacre at will in the prefectures of Yan Dynasty, this move will inevitably turn all the prefectures of Yan Dynasty upside down!

This is a moment that concerns the life and death of the Yan Dynasty!

As citizens of the Yan Dynasty, they deeply understand the principle that when one prospers, all prosper; when one suffers, all suffer!

Right now, they must stop them from continuing to cause trouble in other state capitals.

Even though that dog emperor is not a human being, the imperial power is supreme and they have to be his subjects!

"Where will the execution take place?" Lu Qingqing suddenly looked at Liang Pei and asked.

She wanted to go and see what was going on.

If it is true that someone from the government was colluding with the Huns, then this person must be caught.

Otherwise, once the Huns wiped out everyone in Yongquanzhou, the next city would surely suffer the same fate.

Liang Pei didn't know why she asked that, but he still said, "It's at the south gate in the middle of the street."

Lu Qingqing lowered her head and pondered for a while, then exchanged glances with Lu Yuanzheng, and said to Liang Pei:

"We want to go over there and take a look. If you go back, please tell my uncle and aunt. We will go back before the temperature rises."

Liang Pei looked outside and shook his head, "No, I'll go with you to take a look."

Lu Qingqing didn't want him to get involved, after all, this was a life-threatening matter.

Just as he was about to refuse, Lu Yuanzheng said, "Qingqing, he has a map of the city. With him, we can get twice the result with half the effort."

A restaurant owner had a map of the city. Lu Qingqing felt a little strange about it, but did not ask.

Soon she nodded and agreed to let Liang Pei follow them!

But I still made three rules with him: no matter what happened, he must not reveal the depth of himself and his companions.

Liang Pei thought, this is not difficult, and nodded in agreement.

The three of them walked out carefully and headed towards the south gate!

The streets outside were in a mess at this time.

The dead bodies piled up into a small hill, and large patches of red blood flowed on the ground, attracting a group of small animals to hover over and look for food.

As they walked over, the group of small animals were startled and flew up into the sky with a buzzing sound.

They circled in the sky but did not move away, like a large black cloth hung in the sky, casting a moving shadow on the ground.

They seemed to think that humans had no intention of attacking them, so they circled in the sky and observed for a while, then flew down together and continued to suck the blood on the ground. After a while, they had sucked it all up.

I walked carefully through several streets, and all I saw were dead bodies. There was no living person left, not even a single injured person who was not dead.

Maybe they had already escaped, or were all killed by the Huns.

Lu Qingqing guessed that the probability of them escaping was relatively high.

The local population of Quanzhou plus the floating population is at least 80,000. The number of dead people on the ground is obviously not as many as 80,000!

The three of them tiptoed and soon arrived at the south gate of the street.

As expected, the Hun invaders had all gathered here. They stood devoutly, surrounding a man in the middle. Their true face could not be seen, but he might be their general.

Lu Qingqing estimated that there were about two thousand Hun invaders.

In front of the South Gate, a hemp rope was used to tightly tie up the prefect of Quanzhou and his subordinates, approximately five hundred people in total.

In front of them were several piles of dry firewood.

On the other side of the dry firewood, there was a group of people standing.

These people are all children under ten years old.

Their hands were tied behind their backs, and their feet were also tied tightly, making them squat on the ground like carrots!

They all lowered their heads in unison, and the expressions on their faces were hard to tell.

But their exposed limbs were covered with bloody marks from being whipped, showing that they had been severely tortured by the Huns.

It seems that the rumor that the Huns ate human flesh and drank human blood is true.
