Chapter 120: Mass Burial Mound (Supplementary Update)
Ma Hong was lying under the tree shivering. There was a rope tied around her body, and the end of the rope connected to the branch had been broken. A half-length of hair on her head was hanging down, and the break was flat. It must have been cut by the money dart.
It fell. From the appearance, the child is not seriously injured.
Zhao Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and secretly thought that he was lucky.
Because the Yiming Sword cut the rope, Ma Hong fell from a high place. He barely escaped Zhou Chen's money dart and saved a small life.
Zhao Zheng jumped up, leaped over the branches, and pulled out the Life Sword inserted in the trunk. After falling, he used the sword to cut the rope tied to Ma Hong's body, and then tore open Ma Hong's mouth.
cloth strips on.
"Are you okay?" Zhao Zheng asked worriedly.
Ma Hong was still a child and had been frightened repeatedly in the past few days. At this time, she finally got out of the predicament and opened her mouth to cry, unable to say anything.
Zhao Zheng endured it for a while and comforted Ma Hong with a few words, but Ma Hong cried endlessly, which was very annoying. In desperation, he straightened his face and scolded Ma Hong. Ma Hong was scared, so he stopped
Stopped crying.
"Besides the few people on the ground, are there any other accomplices of the bad guys around?" Zhao Zheng asked.
"No more...no, there are others." Ma Hong answered while holding back her tears.
"Is it there or not?"
"They originally had four men. After they brought me here, I haven't left for the past two days. In the morning, another woman came, but this woman somehow offended the four men and was killed on the spot.
It fell and was buried in the soil. Now there are only three men lying here, and there should be another man around."
"Woman?" Zhao Zheng thought for a moment and figured out this point.
That woman should be Nie Rong. She was hired by Zhou Chen and put on a good show in front of Zhao Zheng. After she succeeded, she came to the forest to report the news. However, Zhou Chen killed her and killed her on the spot.
"Is that woman a very beautiful big sister? And her clothes are very thin." Zhao Zheng asked for confirmation.
"I can't remember clearly, I guess so." Ma Hong said confusedly.
"Then where was she buried after her death?"
"Over there." Ma Hong stretched out her hand and pointed to the forest in the north. Looking from a distance, there was indeed a raised earth bag, and the floating soil on it was all new.
Zhao Zheng looked at that bumpkin with inexplicably complicated emotions. He would not sympathize with the person who almost killed him, but now it seemed that Nie Rong was just a victim. Nie Rong probably didn't know the origin and origin of this incident at all.
After passing by, I was just hired to lure him out, but in the end, I lost my life in vain.
"You are so young and beautiful, why are you letting go of your good life to come here to swim in such muddy water?" Zhao Zheng sighed in his heart.
Ma Hong said that there were four men and one woman here. Zhao Zheng fought all the way here, killing three sneak attackers and knocking out Zhou Chen. In addition, Nie Rong was also dead. It seemed that this forest would never be seen again.
There are no more Zhou Chen accomplices.
Zhao Zheng withdrew his gaze from the grave, faced Ma Hong and continued to ask: "Where did your father and grandma go?"
When Ma Hong heard Zhao Zheng mention her relatives, she felt sad, and tears fell down again.
When Zhao Zheng saw Ma Hong crying, he felt something was wrong, so he used hard and soft tactics to force Ma Hong to stabilize.
"My grandma was killed by these bad guys, and my father was locked up in a dark room. I was also locked up in a dark room, but they took me out," Ma Hong replied sobbing.
Zhao Zheng took a breath and closed his eyes, feeling even more guilty. The death of Ma Hong's grandma was inextricably linked to him. But now there is no use blaming or regretting it. Deal with it quickly.
This matter, and then finding a way to rescue Ma An is the right way.
He got rid of unnecessary emotions, regained his composure, slowly opened his eyes, and asked, "Are you injured?"
"My left leg hurts a little." Ma Hong replied.
Zhao Zheng lowered his head to check, rolled up the trouser leg of Ma Hong's left leg, and found that the joints were dislocated. This must have been broken by Ma Hong falling from a height. Fortunately, he had learned a small grapple and had some research on bones.
, knew how to set bones. When Ma Hong wasn't paying attention, he used both hands to correct it and pushed Ma Hong's bones back to their original positions.
Ma Hong screamed and cried for a while.
The pain of joint dislocation was unbearable. No matter how much he drank to stop Ma Hong, it was useless. Zhao Zheng let Ma Hong cry and used this time to squat on the spot and secretly think about the future countermeasures.
Zhou Chen alone has limited strength, and there may be other accomplices behind the scenes. Zhang and Luo are Zhou Chen's close friends. These two people are extremely suspicious and may also be involved. Together, these people are powerful.
It's not that small, especially Wei Buxiao, Zhang Yuanwai's personal guard, is extremely difficult to deal with. Although this person is a third-level heavenly martial artist like Zhou Chen, his strength is superior to Zhou Chen's.
Ma An fell into the hands of Zhou Chen's accomplices. He was still of use for the time being. He was not in danger of his life. At most, he would suffer a little.
The enemy has hostages, and Zhao Zheng also has Zhou Chen as a hostage.
If Zhou Chen falls into his hands, he can ask Zhou Chen who was involved in this matter, and he can also use Zhou Chen as a hostage to exchange Ma An back.
However, before implementing these things, the wound must be properly treated.
The biggest problem now is that if he returns to the inn with Zhou Chen injured, he will definitely be questioned, and then he will have to reveal the matter of the Huli Zhuang*yang Pill. He doesn't care about the alchemy prescription or how many pills it takes.
What really troubled him about the elixir was that he didn't know how to explain it. His elixir recipe came from his previous memories, and his elixir came from a copy of the alchemy furnace. Neither of them could explain it clearly.
He thought hard for a moment, and finally thought of a good place, and his eyes lit up. Once he got there, all the problems would be solved.
He immediately took action, took out a medicine bottle from his arms, poured out a small pill to restore his strength, swallowed it in one gulp, then picked up the medicine bottle containing the poison on the ground, and poured out two pills.
He poured the drug into Zhou Chen. This drug was used to deal with warriors, and the effect must be very strong. Zhou Chen took a double dose at once, and he must not be able to do it for a while.
Woke up again.
"Xiaohong, stop crying, I'll take you to a safe place." Zhao Zheng interrupted Ma Hong's cry, held Ma Hong in his arms, and then took the unconscious Zhou Chen with him.
Trotting in the woods.
It takes a lot of time to bury the corpses. This is not a place to stay for a long time, so we can only leave the bodies of the three attackers where they are. Anyway, it doesn't matter even if their bodies are discovered.
Zhao Zheng had exhausted 90% of his strength, and he couldn't run fast with two big living people between him. With the help of the small Huan Dan that slowly came into effect, he recovered slightly and gradually increased his speed.
He ran about five miles away and came to a mass grave surrounded by graves. Buried here were the corpses of poor people or some death row prisoners who had no family or job.
There is a secret passage in this mass grave connected to the Hongchen Inn, and there is also an underground secret room under an isolated grave. This secret room is specially reserved for emergency use, and someone will only clean it every few months.
Everything is available, even medicine for healing.
Zhao Zheng searched for a while and quickly found the secret room. He put the two people on the ground and used his hands to remove the floating soil on the tomb, revealing a wooden board. He opened the wooden board and there was a ladder below.
He picked them up again and climbed down the ladder.
This secret room is not big, with only two rooms, one room is used for living, with a total of two beds, and the other room is a storage room, used to store various items, with many boxes and cabinets.
Zhao Zheng used the light beam cast from the entrance to find the candlestick, ignited it, placed it on the table, then climbed on it and covered the wooden board. The light beam above was blocked, making the secret room much darker. Fortunately, there were still
Candlestick lighting. He climbed down again, found a finger-thick hemp rope from the storage room, and tied the unconscious Zhou Chen tightly, just in case. Zhou Chen's arm was broken, even if he woke up, he would still use it.
Without strength, it is no different from a tiger with its teeth pulled out, and there is no threat at all.
Ma Hong had stopped crying. She stayed aside silently, secretly watching Zhao Zheng doing things and not daring to interrupt randomly.
Zhao Zheng fought fiercely and exhausted his internal energy to run so far. He was exhausted by now and wished he could lie down and have a good rest. But he still had wounds on his body that needed to be treated. If he didn't take care of them properly, he would be fatal.
He gritted his teeth and persisted, taking out the medicine and water bottle from the storage room, placing them one by one on the bed, then took off his clothes and rinsed the wound with clean water. The clean water dripped with blood on the ground.
The skin injury is easy to deal with. After bandaging it, it can be healed slowly with the help of the rejuvenating pill and golden sore medicine. The real trouble is the two money darts left in Zhao Zheng's body. These two things are difficult to remove.
There are two money darts, one is left in the calf of the right leg, and the other is in the left shoulder of the back, both of which are buried very deep.
Zhao Zheng found a handkerchief, bit it in his mouth, then slapped his left shoulder hard, using the force of his palm to shake the money dart out of the flesh, exposing the wound. He reached out to his left shoulder
, pinched the edge of the money dart, pulled it out, and threw it on the ground.
The money dart was covered with blood and glowed with blood.
He repeated the same trick, and slapped his right calf hard, and the money dart came out, causing a sharp pain in the wound. He bit the handkerchief tightly, biting it open, and a drop of blood oozed from his teeth.
A wisp of blood. He put this debt on Zhou Chen's head. His eyes suddenly flashed with cold light, and the murderous intention in his heart doubled. He secretly became cruel and determined to kill Zhou Chen and related people. He would never take it lightly.
Rao!
The two money darts were taken out, and a large amount of blood gushed out from the wounds. Even the effectiveness of the hemostatic pill could not stop it.
Zhao Zheng applied gold sore medicine on the wounds, and then wrapped several wounds one by one with white cloth. Then he calmed down, leaned on the bed and closed his eyes to rest. He was just tired, not sleepy, and his concentration remained the same while resting.
I was very focused, always listening to what was going on in the house, just in case I woke up in the middle of the morning meeting.
After a full hour, the bleeding from his wound basically stopped and he was no longer seriously injured, and Zhou Chen never woke up.
He had almost rested and recovered a little strength. He opened his eyes, got out of bed, and walked towards Zhou Chen step by step. He planned to wake him up, torture him to extract a confession, and ask him where Ma An was and who were the other participants.
