Wang Chengen raised his head in confusion, and Wei Zhongxian smiled lovingly: "Let me tell you, you have nowhere to go now anyway. Don't you want to live a good life? Do you want to follow me in the future?"
A trace of fear and doubt flashed in Wang Chengen's eyes, but he quickly nodded: "Okay, as long as I can survive, I will follow you from now on."
Wei Zhongxian laughed: "What a good boy. Okay, let's go."
Wang Chengen suddenly raised his head: "Now that we're leaving, what will happen to these corpses?"
Wei Zhongxian sneered: "It's all set on fire."
Wang Chengen hesitated for a moment: "Sir, can you... let me bury them in the back mountain? After all, they have been kind to me... but I..." He lowered his head.
Wei Zhongxian narrowed his eyes: "You want to bury them? What, are you afraid of nightmares at night or are you afraid that they will turn into ghosts and come to take revenge on you?"
Wang Chengen shook his head: "My mother said that if you bury them properly, they won't turn into evil ghosts, and they won't bother you, sir."
Wei Zhongxian smiled: "You kid can talk. You guys, follow him and bury these corpses. Move faster."
It was very foggy in the mountains in the morning, and it had rained all night, so the roads on the mountains were very slippery. The people carrying the corpses all had expressions of reluctance. Wang Chengen kept whispering apologies beside him, and reminded everyone to pay attention to the road under their feet from time to time.
"Hey, sir, please be careful!"
"Damn it, who doesn't have the foresight to push me?"
"Go on your own and don't push towards me!"
I don't know who's foot slipped, and a man was about to fall under the push and yell. He quickly threw the body in his hand and grabbed the person next to him to steady himself. The man couldn't lift the body by himself, and he was grabbed by someone else.
, he simply let go, and a corpse fell straight down the mountain road.
Wang Chengen came over quickly: "What should we do? What should we do?"
The person next to him said disdainfully: "Isn't it just a corpse? If it falls down, he will get an advantage. Boy, how is the road down the mountain?"
Wang Chengen was worried: "It's like a cliff down here. If you're going down with your life, you won't be able to come up. Are we still going down to find the body?"
"Looking for nothing, these guys just find a place to bury it."
Wang Chengen stared deeply at the foggy mountain road, Xiaoxuan, senior brother lied to you and failed to pick you up. In the days to come, you must live well and don't let down the master's expectations.
Just when the two of them were pinching each other, Wang Chengen took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and used a needle to seal Lu Wenxuan's acupuncture points, causing him to faint as if he was dead.
This was what the Fifth Senior Brother taught him on a whim, saying that it might come in handy in the future. If that kid Lu Wenxuan was bullying him, he would give him a good punishment. Then he would definitely go and cheer him up.
I just didn't expect that this trick would be used on Lu Wenxuan in the end, and in front of the fifth senior brother. Even if it was a corpse, he could be considered to be there to see it.
This method can only make people appear in a state of suspended animation for a few hours, and they will wake up automatically soon. Moreover, there is still a difference between suspended animation and real death. If a real expert takes a second look, he will know.
Fortunately, Wei Zhongxian's men just sniffed twice and immediately concluded that the person was dead. He and Lu Wenxuan often used this road. Although it looked scary when it was foggy in the morning, the terrain below was actually very gentle and the soil was soft.
This is especially true after it rains. Even if you fall from here, it won't be a big deal. At most, your skin will be scratched.
He looked back at the winding path, thinking that he would probably never have the chance to walk this path with Xiaoxuan again in his life.
After hastily burying the remaining corpses, Wang Chengen followed Wei Zhongxian down the mountain. The fire on the mountain was so serious that it had already spread down the mountain. At this time, everyone was surprised to see Wang Chengen and wanted to go up and ask.
I asked what was going on but couldn't come forward due to the crowd of people.
Wang Chengen didn't see anyone at all. He just stayed in his room. Except for quietly going to Dr. Zhu, paying off the consultation fee that he hadn't paid before and asking for money, he bowed deeply to the old doctor.
He bowed and left without looking back.
The old doctor looked at his back and wanted to ask what was going on several times, but finally gave up. He sighed and accepted the consultation fee without asking any more questions.
Wang Chengen kept the letter written by his mother and the pile of broken silver as if they were treasures. He was an obedient and diligent child, as if he was born to know how to take care of others. Wei Zhongxian was very interested in this boy he brought back on a whim.
The child is very satisfied.
After being met with many looks and suspicions in Pingcheng, Wang Chengen finally followed Wei Zhongxian and left Pingcheng for the capital, a capital that he was completely unfamiliar with and knew nothing about.
When he went to bed these days, he always had nightmares. He dreamed that his master was covered in blood, looking at him expressionlessly, and scolding him for coveting the comfort of the moment and forgetting why his senior brothers died.
And Lu Wenxuan, his eyes were blood red, he said why do you want to kill me? He said you are not my senior brother, I don’t have a senior brother like you.
Wang Chengen often wakes up like this in the middle of the night, and then never sleeps again all night long. Everything that happens in front of him is like a nightmare to him. This nightmare makes him dare not close his eyes at night.
It wasn't until he entered the palace that he knew who Wei Zhongxian was. At the same time, he felt huge waves of fear. He didn't want to become a monster that was neither male nor female in the future. Don't be like this...
He cried and struggled fiercely, but Wei Zhongxian frowned and gave him a cold look: "Don't want to? If you don't want to, then get out now."
Wang Chengen stared at the gorgeous ground dejectedly, with only a buzzing sound in his mind. He gritted his teeth. The smiling faces of several senior brothers appeared in front of his eyes. He closed his eyes hard, holding back the begging and fear in his heart: "Thank you, father-in-law, for your support.
Cultivation"
After kowtowing vigorously, Wei Zhongxian's laughter rang out: "He is indeed a sensible person. Okay, find a time to take him to cleanse himself. Your good days are about to come."
He didn't know if his good days would come. The only thing he knew was that from this day on, he would never wake up from his nightmare, and he would have to live like this for the rest of his life.
Maybe this is the price he has to pay for surviving alone when his master and brothers are all dead. Wang Chengen thought, since it is useless to struggle and resist, it is better to simply accept it. No matter what, the things that the master entrusts to him must be done.
Finish.
If there is a chance, he hopes to find his junior brother, hoping that he can take good care of himself and not let down his master's hopes and entrustments.
