Eight hundred and thirteenth chapter unknown origin
Chapter 813: Unknown Origin
As Lan Mujia fell to the ground and died, a deathly silence fell in front of the house, the fierce fighting stopped instantly, and everyone retreated back.
It happened that at this time, Crosseyes ran over from behind the house, because the person he had just called to deliver the message was driven back, so in desperation, Crosseyes had to come over in person.
But when I came to the house, I saw that the two sides had stopped fighting. I was about to ask what was going on when I turned around and saw Lan Mujia on the ground in front of me. The official sword inserted in his chest had already been explained clearly.
Everything!
Crosseyes was horrified, and at the same time he thought to himself: If you don't retreat even if I tell you to, it's fine now, you risk your life!
"Why are you still standing there? Get out!"
After coming back to his senses, Crosseyes immediately shouted to the crowd, then turned around and ran towards the back of the house.
Upon seeing this, his subordinates followed Crosseyes' footsteps and quickly fled from the house. In the blink of an eye, only dead bodies were left in front of Ge Hong and the others.
Immediately afterwards, the group's shouts for retreat came from behind the house.
Ge Hong immediately said: "Old third and fourth, don't leave yet. Be careful of bad guys trying to trick you... I'll go take a look at the back!"
Cheng Jiu and Fatty Lai nodded in agreement, and Ge Hong immediately ran to the back of the house.
When Ge Hong came to the back of the house, the people who led them had already fled without a trace. Just like the previous situation, there were also corpses scattered all over the place.
"Second brother, fifth brother, are you okay?" Ge Hong hurriedly ran to inquire about the situation.
Yu Tie immediately shook his head and said it was okay, but there were many cuts on his clothes and several small wounds on his arms.
Guan Maochun was in a similar situation to Yu Tie, and had many minor injuries on his body. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "Brother, I'm lucky to have a goggles on me this time, otherwise the knife just now would have almost killed me!
"
Guan Maochun felt a lingering fear when he thought of the scene just now. He still remembered the feeling of the knife stabbing the breastplate!
Ge Hong nodded heavily and said, "Yes, thank you Miss Situ for giving us this. This is a life-saving kindness!"
Suddenly, Guan Maochun's tone changed and he whispered: "Brother, we are fine, but..."
"But what?" Ge Hong asked.
Guan Maochun and Yu Tie's heads turned back.
Ge Hong followed the gazes of Guan Maochun and Yu Tie and saw that one of the three government officials guarding the back door had died of his injuries, and the other two were sitting next to the deceased with sad expressions.
Upon seeing this, Ge Hong hurried over and became concerned about the injuries of the two people.
After checking, it was found that although the two government officials were also injured, their lives were not in danger. As long as the wounds were treated and cared for carefully, they should be able to recover soon.
Later, Ge Hong looked at the body of the dead government servant. Seeing a young life disappear like this, it was inevitable to feel some sadness and regret, but more of it was respect!
Next, Ge Hong said some words of praise and comfort to the two injured government officials, and said that he would report the truth to Lord Situ after returning home, firstly to provide good compensation to the family members of the deceased government officials, and secondly, to ask for rewards for the two of them.
record merits!
"Brother, why are you injured too?"
At this time, Guan Maochun also discovered a red bandage on Ge Hong's arm.
Ge Hong turned around and glanced at the bandage on his arm, and said not too concernedly: "Don't worry, it's just a minor injury. It'll be fine with some medicine later!"
Then, Ge Hong told him some things, then entered the house through the back door and came to the room where the gold was stored.
Seeing that there were quite a few boxes containing gold, Ge Hong walked to the front door with confidence. At this time, the front door was still closed, and the three frightened government officials were still hiding behind the door.
"Okay, it's okay!"
Ge Hong said with contempt, then opened the door and walked out, arriving next to Cheng Jiu.
At this time, Cheng Jiu was squatting next to Lan Mujia's body and groping around, probably trying to find something on his body that could prove his identity.
Seeing Ge Hong coming back, Cheng Jiu stood up, and Ge Hong asked, "Have you discovered anything?"
Cheng Jiu shook his head and replied: "No..."
Ge Hong said: "Don't worry about him for now, let's see if there are any survivors."
So, Ge Hong and the others began to examine the corpses in front of the house one by one, but the results were very disappointing. There was not a single one alive, and no items that could prove their origins were found on these people.
After checking the last corpse, Cheng Jiu stood up, looked at everything in front of him and frowned: "Brother, these people are so clean, obviously they are afraid of exposing their true identity..."
"That's right!" Ge Hong nodded in agreement: "These people came prepared!"
Cheng Jiu held his chin and wondered: "Since they are not bandits, then who are they?"
Ge Hong said very calmly: "Fourth Brother, these are not issues we should consider. Our top priority is to safely deliver the mine gold to Yaozhou Prefecture!"
At this time, Fatty Lai walked over while wiping the blood stains on the copper hammer, and said naively: "Brother, I'm hungry..."
Ge Hong and Cheng Jiu were speechless for a while.
Cheng Jiu pointed to the pile of corpses in front of him and said: "These piles of dead people, you come here and say you are hungry, you must be sick!"
Fatty Lai said confidently: "I'm just hungry... After fighting for such a long time, my weapons are heavier than yours, so it doesn't take any effort!"
"Oh, you've become more capable!" Cheng Jiu glared.
Ge Hong hurriedly smoothed things over and said, "Okay, the third child has a lot of strength. Since he is hungry, go and help him get something to eat."
Cheng Jiu sighed and turned around to go to the village.
Ge Hong hurriedly stopped Cheng Jiu and said seriously: "By the way, Fourth Brother, our place is very close to Nanying. You go to the village chief first and see if they can send someone to Nanying to report a message. Let's talk about it."
When encountering rogue bandits, in short, let Nanying send troops here first, otherwise it would be terrible if the group of people were to fight back... As for the rest, wait until they come...
..."
"I understand. I will go to the village chief and make sure he sends someone to Nanying to report the news immediately!" Cheng Jiu responded domineeringly and walked quickly into the village with his knife in his shoulder.
Ge Hong was stunned for a moment, then warned: "Fourth brother, remember to speak politely and don't use violence!"
"I know, I know..." Cheng Jiu replied without looking back.
Immediately afterwards, Fatty Lai shouted: "Don't forget to get more meat..."
Ge Hong couldn't help but was speechless for a while. He had only killed people before. The smell of blood was everywhere, but you could still eat the meat!
