"Yue’er?"
Li Qingmu hurriedly supported the person next to him. In fact, he also felt a bit nauseous, but he could endure it, whereas Yue’er couldn’t. After all, she was just a woman.
Long Yue gently shook her head: "I’m fine, just feeling... uncomfortable. I’m not one with a rciful heart nor a heart of stone. These people are innocent."
She took a deep breath and thought of that beast Qian Yi!
To hide his true identity, he actually slaughtered all the villagers of Qingshui Village. What a cruel heart!
While speaking, Long Yue turned around and saw Village Chief Wang Zhihuan.
His neck was half broken, but still hanging, the blood had already clotted, and his eyes were wide open, not resting in peace!
Indeed, not resting in peace, because those who were killed weren’t just him but the entire village!
As the village chief, how could he not be angry, worried, or sad?
The only way he could express his discontent was to keep his eyes open, surely to see what fate those killers would et in the future!
"Huanhuan, co with us! Let’s check inside!"
Long Yue didn’t know if there were any survivors, but she had to try, so she called the strong Huanhuan, and the three went into the village together.
They could split up, but given the situation, if they found a survivor they would have to inform the others, which was too troubleso, so they stayed together.
As they explored, their mood grew heavier, because there were almost no survivors!
"Let’s check the Li family."
Li Qingmu hesitated for a mont and decided to check the Li family first. Upon arrival, he found no house but only large stretches of farmland.
This...
Li Qingmu was stunned, had they moved away?
Well, that’s good!
In this way, they escaped disaster, which counted as fulfilling one’s kindness.
Afterward, they went directly to Chai Tieniu’s house.
In this village, the one with the best relationship with them was Chai Tieniu. When they were driven out by the Li family, he provided them with food and shelter, a favor never to be forgotten.
Arriving at the Chai family was the worst result.
Li Qingmu looked at the ss in the house; the only consolation was that his family had complete bodies, all stabbed to death in the abdon.
"Yue’er, let’s bury them!"
After a mont of silence, Li Qingmu said, Long Yue gently nodded, "Alright!"
There were tools here, and the two dug three pits behind, burying Father Chai and Mrs. Chai. As they were about to move Chai Tieniu, Long Yue suddenly noticed his finger twitch slightly.
"Stop, stop, A Mu, look, his hand is moving, he...he’s still alive!"
Long Yue was excited, she never expected to find a survivor. Chai Tieniu wasn’t dead? Wonderful, truly wonderful!
Li Qingmu was also overjoyed, reaching out to touch and finding Chai Tieniu’s body still had so warmth despite the cold weather and severe blood loss causing low body temperature.
"Take him away, no matter what, we must give it our all to save him!"
Father Chai and Mrs. Chai were certainly dead, their bodies stiff, with no chance of survival, but Chai Tieniu still had a shot!
The two didn’t bother to bury anyone else, heading back directly.
Carrying him was tough, but thankfully Huanhuan was there; she could probably carry two people. The three left the village and got into the carriage, rushing to town.
Long Yue arrived at a pharmacy and found the physician inside, asking for help with the wounds.
Long Yue knew a bit herself, with the two of them, it would be faster.
Cleaning, disinfecting, stopping bleeding, bandaging, all actions were extrely skilled.
"This is strange, with such heavy injuries, he’s still alive, blessed with great fortune, but whether he will awaken is uncertain."
That’s what the doctor said.
Long Yue’s beautiful face twitched slightly, her heart panicked, "Can we take him away?"
"No, his condition is very unstable now, observation is needed for several days."
Li Qingmu frowned: "Absolutely can’t?"
"No!"
The doctor across shook his head vigorously.
Li Qingmu frowned; they needed to hurry, but Chai Tieniu couldn’t move here. What could they do?
Moving a badly injured person now could easily reopen the recently treated wounds, which would be a ss.
"Huanhuan!"
At this mont, Long Yue made a decisive call to the maid beside her.
"You stay here to care for Brother Chai. When he is almost recovered, co back with him."
Wang Xiaoliu had to drive the carriage, the only one who could stay was Huanhuan, and Huanhuan was well trained by her, caring for others wouldn’t be an issue.
Huanhuan stepped forward: "Yes, Madam!"
Long Yue wanted to ntion that Chai Tieniu being a man might be inappropriate for her, and suggested she find soone to help, but she saw Huanhuan had a blank expression.
Alright, that’s fine.
Settling Chai Tieniu, Long Yue and Li Qingmu spent money hiring soone to report the case and buried the people of Qingshui Village. After handling these matters, the two headed directly north, without even detouring to Prince Lingjiang’s side as ti was pressing and there wasn’t a mont to lose!
...
Shengjing City!
This ancient capital thousands of years old had witnessed several dynasties, hundreds of emperors, with a long and rich history.
This is an ancient city!
Naturally, the ancient city is bustling, flourishing with song and dance, bright with lights and colors, street vendors calling out crisply and lodiously. On both sides of the streets, shops are lined, custors coming and going, occasionally hearing enchanting laughter.
This city grows increasingly intoxicating.
"Hyah, hyah—"
Four fast horses gradually galloped towards the city gate. One rider held a golden seal, and the guards at the gate instinctively knelt upon seeing it.
This was the Yulong Pavilion’s golden seal, representing the Emperor’s direct subordinates, everyone had to show respect.
Among the riders, there was a young man clad in a white cloak, his features sharp and distinct, although slightly sharp and frivolous but still fairly handso.
Galloping swiftly, he raised his head and finally saw the ancient city he had dreamt of countless tis!
The Imperial Capital of Dazhou, Shengjing City!
He took a deep breath, letting the cold air swirl deep in his lungs before slowly exhaling, as if purging a breath of impurity!
Shengjing City!
He murmured to himself; no one noticed the hint of madness and hatred flashing in his eyes!
"Li Qingmu, Li Qingmu, don’t you dare die at those people’s hands; I still want to co to tornt you well, hahaha..."
He laughed madly in his heart, swirling through countless thoughts on how to tornt him, feeling imnsely delightful!
"Hyah!"
The horse galloped, finally crossing into this millennia-old tropolis!
The long and broad streets unfolded; Qian Yi looked at the golden road ahead with a smug smile!
Shengjing City, I have arrived. My path of revenge as Qian Yi will also begin!
