Chen's heart suddenly became tense, getting tighter and tighter, and her palms began to sweat unconsciously.

Watch the Burner slowly walk towards the bookshelf.

She knew very well what was behind the bookshelf. Yan Ruyu and the corpse were both there.

The Burner moved behind the bookshelf.

Mrs. Chen clenched her fists hard, her voice was stuck in her throat, and she bit her lips.

However, there was no movement.

There was no shouting, no fighting.

The one who came in with the fireman waited for a while but made no move.

"Is there Brother Xu?" he asked.

No one answered from the bookshelf.

"I'm talking to you, why are you ignoring me?" he asked again.

Still no answer.

This was definitely not normal, and he noticed it.

The wind was blowing outside, and the remaining snow drifted in from the half-open door, making him tremble and shiver.

He pulled out his sword and walked slowly towards the bookshelf.

Mrs. Chen tried her best to control herself not to be nervous, but when she spoke, she still trembled slightly: "There is no one over there."

The man ignored her, and his intuition told him that something must be wrong.

When he came closer, he did not go around the bookshelf, but stood outside the bookshelf: "Come out!"

He shouted, there was some movement inside, and the Pyromancer stretched out his arm.

The man let out a breath: "Why don't you speak? You're scared to death..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a "click" and something sharp penetrated the wood of the bookshelf and went straight to his lower abdomen.

He looked down and saw that it was half a knife.

Cold and firm, it penetrated into his body.

He slowly raised his head. He hadn't seen the person behind the bookshelf yet, so he couldn't see anything clearly. He was hit on the back of the head and his vision went dark.

Yan Ruyu turned around and saw Mrs. Chen holding a table leg in her hand, her face pale, cold sweat on her forehead, and her expression frightened.

The man fell silently into a pool of blood.

His lower abdomen was stabbed through, and a bloody hole was made in the back of his head.

Yan Ruyu patted her gently, knowing that she was very frightened: "It's okay, don't be afraid, you go over there, their people will come in later, you don't have to pay attention."

Chen bit her lip and it bled: "I'm not afraid. You are here to save me. I can't ignore them. They... they are all beasts. They deserve to die!"

She felt sympathy for these people, no, she wished she could send them to hell ten times!

Yan Ruyu didn't force any more, dragged the bodies in, took off some clothes from their bodies, and wiped away the blood.

There were five people in total, and now three are dead.

There is also the one who scrubs the long table and the one who chops wood.

"What's the sound?" The woodcutter was holding an axe. The man who had just been knocked to the ground seemed to have heard something.

It was so quiet at night that every sound seemed very clear.

The person who was cleaning the desk said: "What kind of noise can there be? It's not like you don't know what's wrong with that kid."

The woodcutter was startled, then laughed: "Damn it, De Xing, you will never forget that! That woman is pregnant, but she is also interested."

"We have nothing but big bellies," said the table-washer.

"That's true, we are not allowed to go out usually," the woodcutter said a little depressed.

After a while, there was no other movement in the room, which was a bit abnormally quiet.

The woodcutter looked inside and saw that half of the door was still open, and a little light came in from the door, which was a bit sad.

"I gonna go see."

He carried the ax and walked inside.

The fire was a little small. The table washer added more firewood, and the firelight reflected the shadow on the ground.

He glanced at it unintentionally and suddenly paused.

That is his own shadow. Who is that next to him?

He immediately turned back, and a man appeared behind him at some point. He grabbed the firewood and was about to fight back. Before he could move, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes, and then there was blood.

Huo Changhe snorted coldly, dragged his body to the big urn, and threw it directly in. There was a dull sound inside.

Inexplicably, it is like a heavy stone, weighing on people's hearts.

Huo Changhe didn't think about what was inside, turned around and went to the place where the table-washer died, buried the blood, and went to look for Yan Ruyu in the house.

Yan Ruyu took out an ordinary old cotton coat and a pair of thick cotton shoes from the space.

"Put it on and wait a moment."

Mrs. Chen dressed and waited with her heart in mind, while Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe threw the corpse into the urn.

After everything was done, Yan Ruyu asked Chen to go to the yard while Huo Changhe went to rescue some pregnant women in the adjacent yard.

There was no one watching over them, and once the room was locked, they couldn't escape.

There are three people there. They are still very young in pregnancy and can move relatively easily.

Yan Ruyu was in the front, several pregnant women were in the middle, and Huo Changhe was behind and left the yard along the way they came.

Mr. Qi has already gone back. If you go to Anyan, his study is over there.

This is obviously inappropriate.

This house is quite big. After turning several moon gates, Mrs. Chen suddenly said: "I seem to know where this is."

"Where is this?"

Mrs. Chen blushed slightly: "It's a house behind Qi's family. It used to be a big family. Later, the family moved away. I don't know who said it. It was not clean here. The house was never sold and gradually became abandoned. .”

"However, the backyard of this house is next to the side yard of Qi Mansion, but the main entrance is far away, so most people will not associate the two places together."

"I... was thought to be ominous before, and it was very painful for a while. I thought... I had been here before, and there was a dog hole over there, and I sneaked in."

What are you thinking? The poor helpless girl was despised by her family and scolded by her sister-in-law. She was probably frustrated and didn't want to hurt anyone else anymore, so she wanted to end it on her own.

Yan Ruyu didn't ask any more questions. According to what she said, she found a dog cave.

However, Chen is now a month old and cannot get through.

Yan Ruyu smiled, but she couldn't really let them get into the dog hole.

Huo Changhe carried them one by one and let go immediately when they arrived safely.

"Are you all from this town?" Yan Ruyu asked.

A few people shook their heads, all from the village.

Yan Ruyu did not ask in detail: "First we will arrange to stay in a safe place for half the night. At dawn tomorrow, we will send you out of town and go home. Who are you and where are you from? Needless to say, we will not ask. We will say goodbye tomorrow. Never see you again."

Several women were red-eyed. This was because of their reputation. They did not make any fanfare, did not show favors in return, and did not even ask for their names.

Several people knelt down to kowtow, and Yan Ruyu said: "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. You also need to take care. No need to say any polite words. Let's go."

Ms. Chen walked at the end, and Yan Ruyu said: "Don't go back yet. Don't worry about your mother-in-law. Someone is watching. Write a note to reassure her. When the matter is over, I will send you back to reunite."

"Thank you girl!"

After escorting them to the secret guard, they boiled hot water to purify themselves, and drank medicine to soothe their nerves and stabilize their fetuses, and they fell asleep almost immediately.

Yan Ruyu had no intention of changing her clothes. She and Huo Changhe looked at each other and understood each other.

"Walk."

The two walked into the night again.
