The guards had no choice but to hurry up. They thought that the Zhu family was doomed and would be executed in three days, so in order to merit merit, some severe punishments were used.
Several people had even been tortured to the point of dying and could no longer hold on any longer. How could they remain calm now that they heard Dugu Yue's words, "If someone dies, someone needs to pay for it with his life."
When Duguyue saw the behavior of these guards, he knew clearly that someone had definitely used severe punishment on the Zhu family members.
It would be fine if no one in the Zhu family died. If someone was really tortured to death, Dugu Yue would definitely keep his word and eliminate a few people to pay for their lives.
In a place like a prison, it is inevitable that there are some guards who have evil intentions and take the initiative to torture prisoners for pleasure, or they may torture prisoners by receiving benefits from others.
And there will definitely be some innocent civilians in prison who were sent in because they offended the powerful.
This kind of thing has been vividly demonstrated in ancient times on the earth. There is no need to doubt whether it exists. It will definitely happen.
And if some guards accept gifts from powerful people to torture these innocent civilians, they will definitely have a lot of karma on them, so they are Duguyue's first and clear target.
Sometimes the most hateful people are not necessarily the enemies, but rather the law enforcers who are supposed to uphold justice and maintain order, but use their duties to seek personal gain with power.
Because the enemy can only give you physical pain at most, but they will give you physical and mental blows at the same time.
Let you experience the deep despair of having no way to heaven, no way to earth, and no one to uphold justice.
All the guards and two imperial guards accompanied Dugu Yue and stood waiting in front of the prison door. Dugu Yue said nothing and no one dared to move.
At this time, in the prison, several guards who hurriedly entered looked panicked. Because they were late, three people had already been tortured to death.
It would have been easier if they were dragged out for execution in the past, and two criminals who could not speak could be used to fill them in.
But now Duguyue has come to ask for someone with the current emperor's imperial list, and judging from his attitude, it is obvious that he does not want to be taken out for execution. This trick of pretending to be false will not work at all.
As soon as they recalled Dugu Yue's words, "Someone needs to pay with his life," several guards were so frightened that their legs trembled, because among the many colleagues who guarded the prison, their status was definitely at the bottom.
Whether it's the captain's choice or everyone's recommendation, the three people who were abandoned to pay for their lives will definitely choose among them.
Immediately, the guards' faces turned pale and despairing, but they did not dare to delay any longer, so they quickly arranged for the Zhu family members to line up and walk out of the prison.
Because if they go out, only three of them will die, but if the people outside are left waiting, they may all die.
This can't be blamed on their bad mentality. It can only be said that Dugu Yue left the impression on them that they were not very kind.
Not to mention that from the beginning of the meeting, he had been expressionless and looked arrogant. The first thing he said was to directly give orders and ask them to take everyone from the Zhu family out and not even enter the prison.
And the second sentence directly talks about paying for life. Only these two sentences can leave a kind impression on them, which is considered a bad thing.
Two quarters of an hour later, several guards finally released all the more than a thousand people from the Zhu family in batches.
From top to bottom, the people of the Zhu family are really hard to say well. Whether it is the head of the Zhu family or an ordinary servant, they have all been severely punished in just three days.
But at this moment, the guards were fortunate that the three dead people were just ordinary minor characters in the Zhu family and did not attract anyone's attention. All direct members of the Zhu family were still alive.
They can only hope that there are thousands of people in the Zhu family, and Dugu Yue will not find out that three people are missing.
In fact, how did they know that Dugu Yue knew nothing about the Zhu family except the thirty-odd guards and Zhu Wanjun whom he had met in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range, and Zhao Jinbei.
Even if they randomly selected more than a thousand people, without verification, Duguyue would not be able to tell whether they were members of the Zhu family or not.
Even if it is confirmed, Dugu Yue does not know how many people from the Zhu family have been captured. I am afraid that even the head of the Zhu family himself does not know.
As for Duguyue's previous statement that if someone in the Zhu family dies, someone needs to pay for it, it is a deterrent to some people, so that they dare not "accidentally" kill someone and silence them.
The people of the Zhu family reacted in two extreme ways to being suddenly released after being tortured.
The vindictive faces of the servants and subordinates were ashen as if they were rushing to the place of execution. There were even some who were crying and fussing, unwilling to leave, and clinging to the bars of the prison where they were originally imprisoned.
On the other hand, the direct members of the Zhu family, represented by the head of the Zhu family, were happy, excited, and relieved.
Only the direct descendants of the Zhu family know the reasons for these two extreme phenomena among the Zhu family members.
Because a few days ago, the head of the Zhu family had already anticipated that he would be arrested. After all, the goal of the entire Zhu family was too big to be hidden at all.
So at that time, he immediately summoned the elders of the Zhu family for discussion, and finally decided that in order to prevent this day from coming, he would secretly send Zhu Wanjun, who had a relationship with Du Guyue, out in advance.
This matter, let alone the people of the Zhu family, has been concealed from even the collateral clan members, and only the direct descendants of the Zhu family know about it.
Therefore, for the Zhu family members and subordinates, this sudden departure is nothing more than the time for execution, and they have to rush to the execution ground for the guillotine.
It is better to die than to live. An ant can live an ignoble life, let alone a person with rich emotions, so they would rather stay in prison and suffer than die.
The head of the Zhu family was once the head of the four top families in the Locke Kingdom, so he naturally knew the execution rules of the Locke Kingdom.
And it was only a few days before he was released in a hurry. There was no doubt that the reinforcements invited by his son had arrived, so the direct line of the Zhu family was so confident.
Because of the Zhu family's clan members and servants, it took dozens of minutes before several guards took thousands of Zhu family members out of the prison one after another.
At this time, Dugu Yue had already wasted nearly an hour here, and she was naturally feeling a little anxious.
So after hurriedly scanning the thousands of prisoners who came out, he casually asked several guards: "Are these all members of the Zhu family?"
Duguyue just asked casually, which frightened several guards so much that they broke out in cold sweat, thinking that they were missing three people.
Fortunately, at this time, one of the guards with a stronger psychological quality bravely replied: "Yes, sir."
At this time, Duguyue's entire attention was focused on the thousands of people in the Zhu family, so she naturally did not notice the tremor in the answering guard's voice.
After Duguyue took a look at all the Zhu family members, he no longer had to doubt whether there were killers from the Blood Crow Organization among them.
Because now she has determined that at least three of these people are killers of the Blood Crow organization, and there is no mistake.
Duguyue has already killed five silver medal killers from the Blood Crow organization. It can be seen that the karma on their bodies is slightly different from that on ordinary people, so it is impossible to get it wrong.
However, Dugu Yue cannot point them out now, because if they jump over the wall in a hurry, most of the guards who guard the prison sincerely will inevitably suffer casualties.
Most of what Dugu Yue said was naturally for a reason. Three killers from the Blood Crow Organization were among the people of the Zhu family, and two killers from the Blood Crow Organization were among the guards. They just formed a group.
Five killers.
The killers of the Blood Crow Organization are not very powerful, but their harm is greater than that of a strong Martial King Realm person.
The poison theory that Dugu Yue collected from the first killer No. 5 was colorless and tasteless, and it was more than enough to kill a strong Martial King Realm person.
If Dugu Yue exposes their identities here and forces them to jump over the wall and directly spread the poison, I am afraid that except for Dugu Yue who has the protection of the strange fire, the rest of the Zhu family, the prison guards and the imperial guards will
It is impossible for a thousand people to be left alive.
Although Duguyue had already obtained the prescription for making the poison through the spiritual world at the moment she got the poison, she had no choice but to only know the world's rare treasures through the world's rare treasures record, but she did not understand medical pharmacology and could not prepare an antidote at all.
Therefore, the second reason why Duguyue said in advance that if one member of the Zhu family died, someone would have to pay for it was to make it easier to take action now, in addition to its role as a deterrent.
After scanning the Zhu family, Duguyue didn't know if there were any missing people, but this did not prevent her from taking the opportunity to eliminate evil.
Duguyue is not a pedantic ancient gentleman. There is no need to stand on the moral high ground in everything. As long as she thinks it is necessary and is not doing evil, she has no burden in her heart.
So without any warning, Dugu Yue's face darkened and she said angrily: "The number of people left in the Zhu family is different from what I knew. You actually dared to be so unscrupulous after being notified by me in advance. Well, you must have done it."
I'm ready to pay for it with my life."
After the words fell, Dugu Yue took action directly. Relying on the extreme speed of his light body and Liuyunbu, he instantly broke the necks of the two Blood Crow Organization killers hidden among the guards and killed them.
After previous observations, Dugu Yue already knew which of these guards deserved to die. There was no need to hesitate at all. No one could stop Dugu Yue's attack, and no one could resist.
All the guards targeted by Dugu Yue, without any exception, had their necks broken one after another the next moment they showed a look of horror on their faces.
Although Dugu Yue's realm is still at the peak of the ninth level of the warrior realm and unable to break through, after practicing the Red Lotus Fighting Body Technique, the speed of performing the Light Body Flowing Cloud Step and its own strength have been greatly improved.
Now this does not require Tian Que and the God-Slaying Sword at all, Dugu Yue can directly kill any Martial Lord Realm with a speed that even the Martial King Realm experts cannot match.
After only three breaths, Dugu Yue returned to the original position where he stood, but more than ten guards fell down among the guards facing him.
It fully occupies more than one-tenth of the total guards including the prison guards who have not come out of the prison. Two of them are two of the guards who originally volunteered to enter the prison to bring out the Zhu family members.
In an instant, more than a dozen of his colleagues were killed, so that the remaining guards who were still alive suddenly became wary and fearful of Dugu Yue, and the feeling of sadness over the death of a rabbit and a fox emerged spontaneously.
The two imperial guards standing next to Dugu Yue also had their legs trembling at this time. It was the first time they saw Dugu Yue's powerful combat power besides the rumored alchemy skills, and they were too shocked to say anything.
talk.
But apart from the shock, there was also deep fear, because previously they had shamelessly told Dugu Yue not to stay away from them in order to avoid danger.
To a powerful warrior, such words were not just contempt, they could also be said to be contemptuous of her strength, and even insulting.
This is an unforgivable taboo for any strong person, unless he is a peerless strong person with a transcendent mind.
