Chi!

The white-feathered arrow pierced straight through the throat of the man in black who raised his arm.

Before the others could get close to him, he had already fallen down.

The tip of the arrow popped out from the front of his throat, and blood gushed out, soaking his front lapel and spreading on the snow beneath him like a large patch of slowly blooming red plums.

However, in a moment, before the others could react, dozens of feather arrows shot again, and the other men in black quickly fell to the ground.

Those who react quickly avoid it with knives and find places to hide.

The arrows stopped, Yinding jumped off the courtyard wall, waved his hand, and the others also fell down and cleaned up the remaining men in black.

Of course, two people will be left alive.

Yan Ruyu walked up to Madam Wu and said, "It's a pity that the formation was not set up, and I didn't get to see the power of this death formation."

Madam Wu breathed rapidly, looking at the dead bodies on the ground: "How...how could this happen?"

"The prince has made careful arrangements. When he sent you back last time, he had already discovered the strangeness of this village. Why would he bring me, the princess, to take risks alone?"

"No one showed up just now. We just wanted to lure you guys out. Now that everyone is here, it's time to start killing."

Yan Ruyu looked down at him: "The prince is a master strategist and has fought countless battles. It's ridiculous that you think a few people can trap him."

"The reputation of the prince is never in vain. If you don't accept it, you have to hold it back."

Madam Wu: “…”

She closed her eyes and sighed softly: "In that case, I have nothing to say."

"You want to get something from me? That's impossible. I won't betray him."

A question slowly formed in Yan Ruyu's mind: Him? Or her?

Just when he was wondering, Mrs. Wu suddenly opened her eyes, a hint of cruelty appeared in her eyes, and then she pounced on him.

Huo Changhe turned around and warned loudly: "Yu'er, be careful!"

Yan Ruyu came back to her senses, took a step back, and subconsciously blocked with the knife in her hand.

Madam Wu did not launch a sneak attack, nor did she have any hidden weapons in her hands. Instead, she hit Yan Ruyu's knife hard.

Blood gushed out from her neck, and she fell to the ground, looking up at the sky. The hatred and cruelty she had at that time faded away, as if she was tinged with a smile, and finally slowly emptied out.

Not moving anymore.

Yan Ruyu clenched the knife tightly, and Huo Changhe walked over quickly: "Are you okay?"

Yan Ruyu shook her head: "It's okay."

Huo Changhe looked at the corpse and gently put his arm around her shoulders: "It's none of your business. She wanted to die on her own. Besides, she deserves to die."

Yan Ruyu nodded, and Huo Changhe whispered, "I'll take off the bandage on her face and see how she changed her face."

Just as he was about to reach out his hand, a silver ingot came over. Yan Ruyu stopped him and said, "Your Highness, please go and do something else. Take Madam Mu back and interrogate the two men in black to see if they are remnants of the evil cult. If so, remind Governor Cao and City Guard Li to be more careful."

Huo Changhe said solemnly: "Yu'er is right."

Yinding stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, we have captured the two alive, and the poisonous fangs in their mouths have also been dealt with."

"I will go ask, you go and get the woman out of the room."

"Yes."

Huo Changhe and Yinding left, and Yan Ruyu looked at Madam Wu's body again alone, but she switched her eyes.

Through the layers of bandages, she could see the face underneath.

The face has not fully recovered yet, and new flesh has not grown back yet.

But Yan Ruyu could still recognize it because the face was too familiar.

It's about 70% similar to her face.

Yan Ruyu's heart was greatly shocked.

Why is that?

coincidence?

She never believed in coincidences.

Turning her head to look at Huo Changhe who was interrogating the man in black, Yan Ruyu temporarily suppressed the matter.

Just as I was confused, the space suddenly shook.

Yan Ruyu walked to a quiet place away from people and her consciousness entered the space.

"what happened?"

The abbot's voice came quickly: "Ruyu, Mu Liangze brought people to the manor and told us to move out and hand over the manor."

Yan Ruyu was not in a good mood, and when she heard this, she burst into laughter.

"Where does he get the nerve? Who gives him the courage?"

"Isn't he a lieutenant general? He brought troops with him this time, and it's quite a big show. It looks like he's going to use force if you don't agree."

"With his limited skills, it's not enough," Yan Ruyu thought for a moment, "Who is talking to him now?"

"It's Ma Liyu."

"That's perfect. Let Ma Liyu continue talking. Let Xiang Guang go and invite Li Mingcheng to come and clean up the mess."

The abbot was happy: "Okay, I'll go right away. It will be fun to watch."

"Hey? By the way, how's that Miss Song doing? I see her location is grayed out."

"And Pearl's. It was gray when it first appeared, but now it's gone."

Yan Ruyu pondered and said, "Maybe when a person dies, they turn into ashes. When the time comes, they turn from ashes to disappearance."

The abbot was surprised: "Is Miss Song dead?"

"Oh, that's not right. Madam Mu's is colorful."

"She's not dead."

The abbot was surprised: "What? She's not dead? I even performed a ritual to help her to be reborn…"

"Don't even mention your salvation. She's heard it a long time ago. What you're chanting is not a sutra."

The abbot hung up the phone quickly and went to do his business.

Yan Ruyu exited the space and walked to Ms. Song's body.

Huo Changhe came over quickly: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Yan Ruyu raised her head and said, "The abbot sent a message that Mu Liangze took people to the manor and wanted to take the manor back."

Huo Changhe also laughed angrily: "Rely on him?"

"Don't worry about it. Ma Liyu and Xiang Guang are here. They will take care of it," Yan Ruyu asked. "Did they find out anything during the investigation?"

Huo Changhe shook his head: "They are all mute. Although their tongues are still there, their throats are damaged."

Yan Ruyu felt a chill in her heart: "Damn it."

"I sent people to investigate, and also wrote to Shencheng, asking them to investigate as well. It first appeared under the jurisdiction of Shencheng."

Huo Changhe whispered, "I plan to let Yinding take people to Shenyuan Temple to monitor and control them for two days. If there is no change, I will arrest them."

"Okay," Yan Ruyu had no objection.

Huo Changhe turned around and wanted to untie Madam Wu's bandages.

"Forget it," Yan Ruyu said, "her face hasn't healed yet, so we don't know what it will look like yet."

Huo Changhe stopped his hand and said, "Okay, I'll listen to Yu'er."

He held Yan Ruyu's hand and said, "It's so cold. Go to the carriage and warm up for a while. I'll go over after I finish here."

Yan Ruyu nodded, turned and walked out of the yard, stepping on the snow in the alley, which made a crackling sound.

There were a few people tied up outside the alley. They were captured from other houses by Yinding and his secret guards and were pretending to be villagers.

She got into the carriage and thought carefully about everything Mrs. Wu had said.

Judge and guess what Mrs. Wu was trying to do by making her face like that.

Yan Ruyu left the yard, and Huo Changhe turned around to look at Madam Wu's body on the ground.
