After almost a stick of incense, He Zhiyuan finally stopped moving.
He licked his bloody fingers, then carefully folded the piece of clothing and put it in his arms.
Mo Jiuye glanced around and saw that everyone around him had taken a rest, and the two officers on duty were also dozing off.
He quickly jumped down from the tree, knocked He Zhiyuan unconscious with a hand knife, picked up his collar and disappeared quickly.
After running for some distance, Mo Jiuye threw He Zhiyuan to the ground and at the same time took out the piece of clothing from his arms.
He lit a pile of hay with a fire stick, and by the light of the fire, the writing on the blood book was clearly visible.
The content above was exactly as he and He Zhiran expected.
It just means that he discovered something unusual about Mo Jiuye today and saved a white-haired old woman who looked like an acquaintance. The old woman's identity did not look like an ordinary person.
If King Rui wants to know more, save him as soon as possible...
After reading the bloody book, Mo Jiuye decisively threw it into the fire and burned it.
Originally he wanted to spare He Zhiyuan's life, but in the end he was so ignorant.
She actually wanted to betray him for her own selfish desires.
Fortunately, he and He Zhiran were vigilant and discovered the clues early. Otherwise, once this blood book was delivered to Nan Rui's hands, it would be another big trouble.
Thinking of this, the poison He Zhiran gave him was simply not used. Mo Jiuye raised the knife and sent He Zhiyuan to the west.
After doing all this, Mo Jiuye returned He Zhiyuan's body to its original position without anyone noticing.
In order to prevent others from discovering the clues, he carefully turned back and cleaned up the blood stains on the ground before returning to the tent.
When I got up early the next morning, there was a sound of a woman crying and howling from the camp.
"Master, my master is dead..."
The official went over to check impatiently and found that He Zhiyuan was indeed dead, so he quickly ran to report to Peng Wang.
After looking at He Zhiyuan's body, Peng Wang turned his head and glanced in the direction of the Mo family.
He waved to several officials: "The person is dead, bury him!"
The He family disagreed and all gathered around Peng Wang.
"My lord, my master was clearly assassinated, we can't just bury him without knowing it!"
Peng Wang looked at the women of the He family coldly: "According to your opinion, you plan to let me, an official who escorts exiled prisoners, find the murderer?"
When Peng Wang mentioned the murderer, he immediately thought of Mo Jiuye.
Apart from Mo Jiuye, he couldn't think of anyone who would take action against He Zhiyuan.
However, this is just his guess, and it cannot be completely concluded that it was Mo Jiuye who did it.
What's more, even if it was Mo Jiuye who did it, he wouldn't say it...
Peng Wang just cursed a few words in his heart: This kid will give him trouble!
Seeing Peng Wang's dark face, the He family immediately did not dare to say anything more about seeking justice for He Zhiyuan, and could only watch helplessly as the officials carried the body away.
Now that He Zhiyuan is dead, Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran no longer worry about their encounter with Aunt Fei yesterday being exposed.
The only thing they need to watch out for now is Nan Rui's assassination.
However, the large army marched smoothly for ten days, and there was still no movement from Nan Rui.
Even so, Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran did not dare to be careless at all.
It has entered September, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is gradually increasing.
Especially late at night, I don’t feel very warm even if I’m covered with a quilt inside the tent.
After getting up early, He Zhiran was folding the quilt in the tent when he suddenly felt Mo Jiuye's figure at the entrance of the tent flicker and quickly disappear.
He Zhiran ignored the matter at hand and quickly chased after him.
I saw Mo Jiuye casually picking up a spatula and fending off several arrows that were shot in this direction.
Without doubting his presence, He Zhiran immediately took out a Swiss Army knife from the space and threw it in the direction of Mo Jiuye.
"then."
Mo Jiuye took the saber steadily and continued to resist the arrows.
He Zhiran quickly hid behind a big tree and looked in the direction of the arrow.
I saw a few men in black shooting arrows at Mo Jiuye in a slightly hidden place on the opposite side.
Seeing that those people's targets were always on Mo Jiuye, He Zhiran quickly climbed up the tree, took out his sleeve arrow and shot at those people.
At the same time, the officers and other prisoners also discovered something strange here.
The sisters-in-law had already grasped the mini-pistol with vigilance. If the ninth brother and sister-in-law hadn't told them not to let this thing see the light until absolutely necessary, they would have fired the hidden weapon in the direction of the arrow...
Peng Wang's side also shouted, "There are assassins, everyone be careful."
When encountering such a situation, Peng Wang's first thought was the two brothers who died in Niujiao Mountain not long ago.
Two of the officials had already died, so they couldn't afford any more accidents.
The men from the Fang and Xie families also randomly found some things that could be used as weapons and planned to come over to support them.
However, those people's attacks were only aimed at Mo Jiuye, and the other party was far away, so the 'weapons' such as spatulas and bricks in their hands had no use at all.
Liang Hao also realized something was wrong, and came with Xu Qingfeng and Li Mingrui to protect Mo Jiuye.
He Zhiran had already shot three men in black to death with sleeve arrows on the tree.
However, the number of men in black replenished instantly.
This tactic is completely different from the people Nan Heng sent last time. They didn't show up at all and kept hiding in the distance to shoot hidden arrows.
Until Liang Hao and others joined in, they took off the bows and arrows from their backs and shot multiple men in black in succession.
When the men in black saw that they had lost too many people, they changed their tactics.
They stopped shooting arrows and attacked Mo Jiuye with their knives.
Seeing the large number of people in black, Mo Jiuye was worried that his family would be implicated, so he used Qing Gong and ran away.
The man in black is in hot pursuit.
He Zhiran was still chasing after him, firing arrows at the man in black.
Those men in black turned a blind eye to the people behind them, and even ignored He Zhiran's attack, bent on taking Mo Jiuye's life.
After running a few hundred meters in one breath, Mo Jiuye stopped. He raised his saber and fought with the man in black.
Liang Hao and others arrived one step behind Mo Jiuye and quickly joined them.
When He Zhiran arrived, they had already killed some of the men in black, and it was estimated that there were still twenty or thirty people left.
She saw that Mo Jiuye and others were not having a difficult time dealing with it, so He Zhiran continued to fire arrows at the man in black from behind.
Seeing that things were not going well, the remaining dozen men in black made a few feints and fled in one direction.
Liang Hao, Xu Qingfeng and Li Mingrui quickly chased after him.
Only one person still kept attacking Mo Jiuye, and looking at the postures of the two of them, Mo Jiuye was already at a disadvantage.
He Zhiran quickly raised the crossbow arrow in his hand and aimed it at the back of the man in black's head, preparing to kill him with one blow.
When Mo Jiuye saw this, he shouted: "Don't hurt him."
