"Compensation? What kind of compensation? Money? Besides hitting people with money, what else would you people do?"
"That's right, if we don't care, we want Zheng Zhixing to die miserably."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone rushed up together.
Upon seeing this, Shangguan Wan Ning subconsciously wanted to protect Zheng Zhixing's coffin, but was pushed away and fell to the ground.
Seeing this solemnly, he was furious and couldn't hold it back any longer.
He pulled out his steel knife and rushed over, scolding: "If any of you dare to mess around again, don't blame me for being rude."
"We are afraid of you."
The group of family members of the deceased remained unyielding, and were not afraid of the steel knife in Zheng Zheng's hand. They still rushed forward one after another.
Zheng Zheng couldn't really kill people, he could only push people away one by one.
The group of people trampled over Shangguan Wanning again before she could get up. She couldn't squeeze through even if she tried to help her up.
At this time, a figure came using Qinggong, used his internal power to shake everyone away, and pulled Shangguan Wan Ning to protect him behind him.
"Are you okay?"
Mu Jingrui looked at the footprints on Shangguan Wan Ning's clothes. Thinking of the scene just now, a burning flame was about to erupt in his chest.
He glanced around, his sharp eyes cold and cold, making those people stop involuntarily.
"General Mu, are you... also trying to defend this beast like Zheng Zhixing?"
Mu Jingrui clearly felt that Shangguan Wanning's body trembled when she heard the word "animal".
"I just think that after death, everything comes to an end. Zheng Zhixing once defended his family and country and saved many people's lives. Since he is no longer here, you should let his coffin return to his hometown."
Everyone looked at each other, they were not willing to let Zheng Zhixing's coffin leave like this, but they did not dare not listen to Mu Jingrui's words.
Mu Jingrui's words sounded like he was asking for their opinions. In fact, his attitude was very tough, and it was meaningless for them to continue to insist.
To make him unhappy, the hundreds of thousands of troops behind him trampled them to death with one kick.
"General Mu, you killed Zheng Zhixing..."
"Um?"
These words made Zheng Zheng tremble. When he was in the capital, he vaguely knew something about Shangguan Wan Ning and Mu Jingrui. In addition to Mu Jingrui's rescue just now, he always thought that Mu Jingrui was standing by them.
This side.
Who knows...
"...Now you are protecting him, why is that?"
Facing the questions from many family members of the deceased, Mu Jingrui's heart sank to the bottom of his heart.
From the corner of his eye, he saw a look of solemn doubt and resentment.
Mu Jingrui didn't want to explain. He looked down at the scars on Shangguan Wan Ning's arm and said softly: "I have arranged a carriage for you in front. You go there first and I will take care of it here."
Shangguan Wan Ning raised her head and stared at Mu Jingrui for a long time, still feeling confused.
"How to deal with it? Use force?" Shangguan Wan Ning gently shook off Mu Jingrui's hand supporting her, with indifference in her eyes, "I don't want General Mu to worry about my own family affairs."
"Ning'er!"
The more determined Shangguan Wan Ning's attitude became, the sadder Mu Jingrui felt.
"Let's settle the immediate matter first. The fight between Zhixing and I that day...I will explain it to you when I have the chance..."
Before Shangguan Wan Ning could finish Mu Jingrui's words, she started to ignore him.
She slowly walked to the angry crowd, looked around, and said slowly: "My cousin killed someone, and he made you lose your loved ones. I understand your pain. But, he was used by others...
…”
"No matter what, he killed the man. This is an undeniable fact. Now, I just want to take his coffin back to my hometown. Please be noble and let us go."
Shangguan Wan Ning lowered her posture and bowed deeply to everyone to apologize.
"You won't understand our pain. It's okay to let Zheng Zhixing's coffin pass, but he must accept our punishment."
The family members of the deceased wanted to pull Zheng Zhixing out of the coffin and crush his bones, but after all, Mu Jingrui stood beside Shangguan Wan Ning.
They also know that they cannot confront others head-on, otherwise they will be the ones who suffer.
"How... how to punish me?" Shangguan Wan Ning asked choked with sobs.
Many family members of the deceased dispersed one after another and came back soon.
All of them were holding something in their hands, including rotten vegetable leaves, rotten eggs...all kinds of things.
"Zheng Zhixing wants to leave, so go from here."
The family members of the deceased stood in two groups, eyeing Zheng Zhixing's coffin with eager eyes.
Looking at this posture solemnly, he knew that his master would be humiliated. How could he bear this tone?
He moved his wrist slightly and said coldly: "Don't even think about it. If you don't get out of the way, don't blame me for being ruthless with the big knife in my hand."
The solemn attitude once again angered everyone. Seeing that the two sides were at war with each other, Shangguan Wan Ning stood up again.
"Uncle Zhong, please step back."
"Miss Cousin..."
"Back off!" Shangguan Wan Ning scolded, her scarlet eyes a little firmer.
Zheng Zheng was helpless and stepped back with a sigh.
Shangguan Wan Ning silently walked to the coffin and held Zheng Zhixing's memorial tablet in her hands.
"Zhixing, I know you are a kind and sensible person; I also know that you dare to take responsibility; you killed so many people out of necessity, I believe in you. I will take you home, and one day I will let you
The world can clearly see that you are a warrior who protects your home and country."
After Shangguan Wan Ning finished speaking, she walked forward.
"Miss Cousin," Zheng Zheng hurriedly greeted her, "it's better to let the old slave do this kind of work."
"No need to..."
Shangguan Wan Ning walked forward step by step while holding Zheng Zhixing's memorial tablet. Every family member of the deceased threw their objects at her.
She clenched her teeth, covered her body with her sleeves, and walked forward firmly without shedding another tear.
"Zhixing, don't be afraid. My cousin will take you home... We will be back home soon."
Until, a stone hit her forehead, and bright red blood slowly flowed down, blurring her vision.
She still didn't cry or even stop.
Mu Jingrui couldn't bear it any longer and rushed over quickly.
"It has nothing to do with you." Shangguan Wanning glanced at Mu Jingrui indifferently and continued walking forward.
Mu Jingrui suddenly became extremely calm.
Shangguan Wan Ning's four simple words seemed to have explained the relationship between the two of them.
At this moment, he clenched his fist.
One of the family members carried a bucket of fecal water and threw it at Shangguan Wan Ning.
Mu Jingrui jumped up to Shangguan Wan Ning and protected her in his arms.
Shangguan Wan Ning struggled twice and heard Mu Jingrui say softly in her ear: "No matter what you think, I have determined that you are my woman, and I will... protect you for the rest of my life."
