eavesdropping in the room

The man in the white robe answered "Yes" respectfully, and waved his hand to let someone open the door.

The young man walked out of the cell door with some uncertainty, looked around and saw that they were not moving, so he turned around and ran away.

Seeing that, the others were also a little ready to move, ready to follow and leave.

But then, the masked man raised his hand slightly, and he didn't know what he did, and the fleeing man suddenly burned all over his body.

"Ah!" With a scream all over his body, the young man rolled on the spot, writhing crazily without extinguishing the fire on his body.

Everyone watched him being burned to death. Everyone was terrified, trembling, and dared not move.

After everything was over, the cold voice of the masked man sounded, "This is God's punishment. After you have accepted the baptism of the river of water, you must obey God's arrangement."

Where did the crowd dare to resist, they all knelt tremblingly and did not dare to raise their heads.

Dusk's complexion was solemn, his lowered eyes secretly touched his nose, and sniffed the clothes of the people around him, thinking that the water that fell on them earlier must have been tampered with.

With this, everyone was very quiet throughout the night.

On the second day, before dawn and without food, they were taken outside—to build a dam?

Qin Shu took advantage of the supervisor's inattention and got close to Dusk.

"They recruited believers to build dams?" Qin Shu frowned, "So, they can be considered a good deed."

"Really?" Dusk was laying the stones carried by others, plugging up the damaged opening of the embankment, and then covering it with sand. Hearing this, he couldn't figure it out, but he always felt a little strange.

Qin Shu suddenly grasped Huang Hu's hand, she was a little anxious, "Are you injured?"

Dusk was a little dazed, "No way..." He didn't feel any pain at all.

"Then what happened to your hand?" Qin Shu pointed to his hand.

Dusk looked at his hands strangely, layers of red on his fingers, like blood soaked in sand.

"It's sand..." he murmured.

Red mud?

Dusk frowned, and stretched out his hand to grope for a moment at the crevice in the mud and sand, revealing a corner of a rotten skull mixed with mud and sand.

In the evening, his complexion changed slightly, and his body froze.

Qin Shu also paused, his black eyes slightly cold, "No wonder, I haven't seen any refugees..." It turns out that they are all in this embankment.

……

When it was getting dark, they each received a steamed bun and were taken back.

Although everyone was tired, hungry, and extremely dissatisfied, the situation yesterday was so frightening that they didn't even dare to vent their anger.

Dusk mingled with Qin Shu at the end, and when they were taken out in the morning, they silently memorized the route.This is a cottage built against a cliff cave.There is a room in the middle surrounded by a circle of people guarding, and there are people patrolling from time to time.

Taking advantage of being brought back to the cell, the two quietly avoided the patrolling people and found the middle room.

Dusk pointed to the hut, "I'll go in and have a look, you are guarding outside."

……

Twilight crept into the room silently.The first thing you see in the house is the furnishings of the study, and the bedroom bed is separated by a curtain.

He didn't have time to look carefully, so he went straight to the desk to search, and finally, his eyes glanced at the innermost box of the desk.There was a small lock on the top of the box, but this kind of lock couldn't trouble Duo at all.

He glanced at it, took out a thin wire from his sleeve, poked it carefully for a moment, and the lock cylinder popped open with a "click".

Inside the box was a ledger, and with a jump in his heart, he took it out and flipped through it roughly.

The more I looked at it, the more I frowned. It was a record of the money and money between the Shenhe Sect, the prefect of Yuzhou, and other officials, and there were many corrupt and bribe-taking people.

He squinted his eyes, put away the ledger close to his body, and was about to look for another place, when suddenly, there was a faint and rapid bird song - it was Qin Shu.

someone is coming!

In the evening, he quickly locked the box and put it back to its original place, and neatly tidied up the table case, returning the things to their original places.

He was about to go out when he heard approaching footsteps faintly, it was too late!

He withdrew his steps, turned around and looked around the room, and glanced at the curtain...

With a "creak", the door was pushed open, and the leader of the Kamigawa Sect, wearing a mask and wearing a white robe, walked in first.

Behind him followed a man dressed in black.

"Master Muying, there is news from the capital that the emperor is already afraid that the newcomers from the Sixth Office of the Secret Gate will come to Yuzhou to investigate. Our people originally intercepted outside the city of Yuzhou, but they just caught the wrong person. Now, I'm afraid they have been confused. Entering the city. Mr. Zhang sent a message to remind the people below you to pay attention to the recent changes in the city..." The person who looked like a manager conveyed the words of Zhang Juliang, the prefect.

The white-robed leader named Mu Ying moved to the table and sat down, and said indifferently: "So what if they come? Just let them not go back."

The steward smiled, "With your words, the magistrate is relieved. Also, who should send the 10 taels to Master Li this year, and how to send it there, please arrange it as soon as possible."

Mu Ying's voice was slightly cold, with a smile that was not a smile, "I heard that the court allocated 100 million yuan for disaster relief. I received [-] yuan, and half of it was still stones. Why do you want to give it away?"

"It's like this every year."

"I'm only responsible for..." Mu Ying paused as he spoke, his eyes glanced at the box of the desk, and the lock on the box was reversed.

He scanned the room, and said lightly: "You just said that someone from the capital has already entered the city?"

The man replied: "Although there is no definite proof that the person has arrived, according to the report from the people in the teahouse, there were indeed several groups of people from other places who came in that day. Master Yu has sent someone to investigate..."

"In this way, they have even..." When he was speaking, Mu Ying had already got up, paced slowly in the room, and finally stopped in front of the curtain, and entered here! "

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hand and pulled open the curtain, but the bedroom was clearly empty.

"Master, what's the matter?" The butler behind him was a little puzzled.

Mu Ying threw away the curtain in his hand, walked quickly outside the house, and said coldly: "Someone entered my room and took away something that could kill you."

The man's face turned pale, and he hurriedly followed with a nervous expression.

The house finally returned to calm. On the roof, Twilight, who was holding her breath and leaning on the beam, breathed a sigh of relief.

He fell to the ground lightly, put on the black cloth to cover his face, carefully opened the door a crack and slipped out quietly.

But in the next moment, the wind of the palm hitting his ear made him dodge sideways on a conditioned reflex, and turned his head to face Mu Ying's attack again.
