Chapter 98 Attic

Author: Yao Jishan

Returning the original object to its owner and regaining it was the penultimate step for Wei Shu to escape. The last and most important step was to find a safe hiding place to avoid the coming pursuit.

Recalling this, Wei Shu raised her head slightly, glanced at the low beam that was almost touching her forehead, and then pressed her hand on the relatively solid floor below her knees.

Well, it's okay.

Except that the place is a little narrow and the windows are a little small, the small attic in the tax warehouse in the backyard of Baishuang City Government Office is actually a quite comfortable place.

Wei Shu stretched out her arms and legs, changed her position and leaned towards the window, looking at the courtyard downstairs.

It was the middle of the night, not long after the banger had walked over. The candlelight in the back house of the government office was dim, and thin rain strands could be seen slanting across the lamp shadows. The ground paved with large green bricks had already been wet by the rain, and several lights were reflected in it.

Fire is like a rare star.

Wei Shu rested her head on one hand and stared at the empty courtyard. The other hand was unconsciously stroking the small bamboo basket beside her waist. The slight cold outside the window soaked into her cheeks and chilled her brows again.

When the dagger was pressed against the vital point of the throat, Hua was really eccentric, ferocious and even grotesque, but all of them were cured without medicine.

In order to survive, she not only told the location of the meeting with Alan, but also revealed several secrets. But when Wei Shu asked about Aunt Zhu, she had a blank look on her face.

She no longer remembers this.

Just like she no longer remembers how many Mu Na Heitai died under her hands, nor the name of the maid she threw into the tiger cage.

In her eyes, killing a few people is like trampling on a few ants, and who would write down the faces and names of those ants?

Looking at Hua Zhen's blank face, which was definitely not fake, two words that had been hovering in Wei Shu's heart for a long time suddenly popped up:

Should be punished.

Fish and meat are good, but if they harm innocent people, they should be punished.

Those who invade our land and massacre my people should be punished.

Dehumanizing people, making them worse than animals, should be punished.

When the beautiful and sweet head was chopped off, the turbid air that had been blocking Wei Shu's chest was finally relieved a little.

But, it's not enough.

Wei Shu didn't know what the current strategy of the Song Dynasty was, and why it was unwilling to show strength to the Jin Kingdom, but she knew that if these barbarians were allowed to show off their power on the border of the Song Dynasty and slaughter the people of the Central Plains at will, it would be detrimental to the country.

, it is also an invisible pain for the people.

If the pain occurs again and again, fear will develop and the heart will become cold. At that time, the roots of a family and the bones of a country will be abruptly broken, and the destruction of the country and the annihilation of the species will not be far away.

Thousands of years ago, Wei Shu could not sleep at night because of this and was in unbearable pain. Although she is no longer a monarch, she still hopes that she can do something for her descendants to increase the prestige of our clan and destroy the country.

The power of others.

Even a tiny spark of flame, like a candle outside the window, is enough to illuminate the long night, making the darkness no longer oppressive and making it difficult to breathe.

Therefore, after retrieving the wine vessel, Wei Shu did not follow Aqisi's extremely experienced experience in the world of martial arts and escape from Baishuang City while the gates were wide open during the festival. Instead, she turned around and plunged into the government office.

This was the place Wei Shu chose after much thought. She felt that this was the safest place in Baishuang City.

As the border town general administration, the status of Baishuang City Government Office has always been somewhat embarrassing.

In many matters, the government office is subordinate to the two commanders and has no power to deal with it. However, at the same time, no matter what happens in the city, it can manage a little bit. In the long run, it will definitely create a group of people who are lazy and push the blame.

He is a capable official, and this is what Wei Shu likes.

The murder that occurred in the Balan Mansion was the center of the struggle between Mangtai and Bush. The best choice for the fugitives in the government office was to shrink their heads into the turtle shell and beat them to death without exposing their heads.

In this way, Wei Shu will be fine.

Hiding here is like being in a hollow area formed by the intersection of two storms. No matter where you go, north, south, west, or east, I will stand still.

And as Wei Shu expected, the process of sneaking into the government office was a piece of cake.

The Outing Festival was originally one of the most important festivals in the Jin Kingdom, and the government office was closed for two days as a rule. When Wei Shu arrived at the government office, she felt as if she was in a deserted place.

More than half of the officials in the government office were sleeping at home when the incident occurred. The government officials on duty and the two teams of officials were also not interested in official duties. Some secretly gathered for gambling and drinking, or simply went out to meet friends and prostitutes. The area around Sanchun Hall must have been there.

It was extremely lively, but the government office was as quiet as an empty city. When Wei Shu jumped off the high wall carrying a body as big as Alan, there was no sound everywhere, not even a cat or dog was seen.

So, a certain Jianghu heroine who had killed the four thieves swaggered with the corpse, went straight to the back garden of the government office, found some big rocks, tied them to Alan's body, and threw him into the pond.

There are many lotuses planted in the pond, and a lot of swimming fish are raised. In the midsummer season of June, the lotus flowers in the pond will bloom particularly beautifully, and the fish will also be particularly plump.

Unfortunately, Wei Shu should have returned to the Central Plains by then, but the plump fish could not be eaten, so all her efforts in feeding them were in vain.

Speaking of which, the news of Wei Shu dumping the body was not a big deal, and she was definitely not acting arbitrarily, but because she noticed that the back house of the government office was also empty.

She was quite surprised at the time, but later she found out that on the day of the Outing Festival, the entire family went to Canghe to watch the Spring Festival of the Buhai people. There were not many maids in his mansion, so they all accompanied him to serve him.

When the murder occurred in Balan Mansion, his family was still on the boat having wine and enjoying the scenery, and they did not land until it was time to light the lanterns.

It was only then that the officials in the government office who were so anxious finally reported the news. When the government leader heard about it, he immediately sent people everywhere to find out the news, and then... nothing more happened.

Soldiers under the command of the left commander filled the city to arrest the suspects, while the commander on the right watched the fire from the other side and secretly fanned the flames. The entire Baishuang City was in turmoil, but the government office ignored it, just like the Buddha statue sitting on the lotus throne, motionless as a mountain.

Rather than being caught in the middle and having difficulty doing something, it is better to do nothing; than to intervene in things that cannot and cannot be controlled, it is better to pretend that nothing happened.

As a result, Wei Shu had a few days of rest.

Putting down the small bamboo basket in her hand, she stretched lazily, walked to the middle of the attic, straightened up and stretched out happily.

This is the widest part of the attic, allowing her to stand upright, but the four corners of the attic are extremely low, so she can only bend down and walk.

Tonight, the kitchen steamed a lot of large meat buns. Wei Shu ate five of them in a row, and just now she was curled up by the window. She was really exhausted. This action at this time was naturally for digestion.

"Ta", she moved her hands and feet, and a soft sound suddenly hit her ears. Wei Shu's body swayed, and she was already at the window.

Someone is coming.
