Why marry someone when you are reborn?

Next, comes the main event.

I don’t know who started it, but suddenly someone started throwing things at the corrupt officials who were being escorted out.

What about vegetable leaves and eggs? You're overthinking. They're just grabbing dirt and rocks from the ground.

The vegetable leaves are to be eaten and fed to chickens, ducks and pigs.

As for the eggs, the person couldn't even eat them, so how could he throw them at his enemy?

These corrupt officials certainly deserve what they get.

This implicated the soldiers escorting them - the common people had poor aim and were bound to suffer accidental injuries.

Moreover, they had to be more protective. Otherwise, what would happen if the prisoners were killed by the rocks thrown at them?

The people threw the balls and cursed at the same time; some even cried and cursed viciously while throwing the balls.

County Magistrate Zhou sent people to stop them, but they were unable to do so.

Some of the prisoners looked indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with them, while some of them showed a bit of regret and fear on their faces.

Among so many prisoners, Xu Yun only knew one named Tan, the accountant.

Accountant Tan was one of those who regretted the situation. He didn't dare to raise his head, let alone look anyone in the eye. He shrunk his neck and looked dejected, and had to dodge the stones that were thrown at him. He looked very embarrassed.

Besides, he had been kept in the cellar for so long that he was very dirty—his hair was all tangled.

Of course Xu Yun would not sympathize. She just felt that it was what she deserved.

Someone almost rushed to Tan's accountant. It was a young man. He was very excited and almost shouted at the top of his lungs: "Why? Why? Why are you doing this!"

When Accountant Tan heard his question, he even trembled a little, then raised his head slightly.

The young man's eyes were red and his face was full of anger.

In such a situation, Xu Yun couldn't help but take a few more glances, wondering in his heart what had happened.

Accountant Tan only exchanged glances with the other person, then quickly lowered his head again, even unconsciously quickening his pace.

The young man was also dragged behind by the soldiers.

The road to escorting prisoners to the execution platform was not long, but there were many cases like the one just now.

There were even more excited ones - they rushed over and wanted to beat the prisoner to death!

When the prisoners were about to be sent to the execution platform, something unexpected happened.

Suddenly, thunder roared in the woods not far away.

Not only was there a loud "boom", but even the ground beneath his feet seemed to shake a few times.

Where had the people ever seen such a scene? To put it bluntly, this county was too poor and remote, and although troops passed by, there had never been any fighting here.

So, they had heard of fire thunder, but had never seen it, let alone seen the scene when it was used.

Someone even shouted, "Oh no! The earth dragon is turning over!"

Then the people began to riot, and some even ran away - those who did not run also looked in that direction, with expressions of surprise and confusion on their faces.

Xu Yun knew that this was a fire bomb. He immediately guessed that this was arranged by Xiao Zheyue.

So she was not nervous or afraid, she just looked at Xiao Zheyue.

Then I saw the panic on Xiao Zheyue's face - it was a little unnatural.

Xu Yun guessed that Xiao Zheyue must seldom lie. Otherwise, she wouldn't have shown a sense of guilt even in her panic.

Fortunately, she was standing on the city wall, far away and couldn't see clearly, and now everyone's attention was drawn away.

At this moment, a dozen people suddenly jumped out of the crowd, grabbed the person, lifted him up and ran away -

It all happened so fast.

The soldiers who were pushed to the ground or knocked to the ground did not react.

After everyone had run some distance away, someone started shouting at the top of his lungs: "The execution ground is being robbed! Someone is robbing the execution ground!"

The scene suddenly became chaotic.

Auntie Deng was shocked and angrily yelled, "You saved these wicked people, aren't you afraid of having your ancestors' graves dug up?"

Xu Yun felt that Aunt Deng was so angry that she might rush out to chase someone the next moment.

But Aunt Deng did not do that. Instead, she grabbed Xu Yun and Xie Wanqing, hid behind the crowd, and ran towards the city.

Xu Yun and Xie Wanqing were dragged so hard that they staggered and almost couldn't keep up.

Xiao Zheyue immediately ordered: "Chase! Chase quickly! We must catch them back and make them pay!"

The final result of this chaotic farce was that four people were recovered.

Among them was Accountant Tan.

As for those who ran away, they can’t be caught up in a short time.

In order to appease the people's grievances and to give everyone an explanation, Xiao Zheyue ordered the immediate beheading of these four people that day, and their bodies were hung on the city wall, and no one was allowed to collect the bodies.

Tan Zhangfang and his people all thought they could survive, but they didn't expect to be caught.

How to say it, although they deserved to die originally, but after all this trouble, they were given hope and then disappointed, and were directly pushed into despair.

Looking at the numb expressions of the four people, Xu Yun thought, they deserved it.

During the execution, although it was a bloody and horrifying scene, no one was afraid.

Instead, they all looked excited, as if they had achieved great revenge.

Xu Yun himself did not have any emotional fluctuations. He was afraid that Xie Wanqing would feel uncomfortable, but he did not expect that Xie Wanqing's focus was: "If something like this happens in the Southern Court, they will be implicated."

Not to mention the entire clan, at least parents, brothers, wife and children will all be implicated.

So Xie Wanqing sighed: "This place is really different from the south."

Xu Yun was speechless for a moment.

In the end, the heads and bodies of Accountant Tan and others were hung on the city wall.

They didn't even sew the head back on. They just tied a rope around the body and hung it up.

This scene is somewhat scary. If anyone looks up at it in the middle of the night, they might get a fright.

But now, everyone just feels happy.

Everyone in the city is talking and cursing, and some are worried—

What surprised Xu Yun was that County Magistrate Zhou seemed to have no idea that the robbery of the execution ground was arranged by Xiao Zheyue, and he arranged everything with great concern.

Xiao Zheyue didn't have to pretend anything now, she looked much more natural. And she had always been that kind of aloof and aloof person, so standing there with no expression on her face made her look even more normal.

When Xu Yun passed by, Xiao Zheyue glanced at Xu Yun and said nothing, but Xu Yun understood the meaning of Xiao Zheyue's look: Don't talk too much.

So Xu Yun followed Aunt Deng directly back home.

Aunt Deng was also worried. Hua Niang and Hong Yu poured a bowl of water for everyone.

When drinking water, Auntie Deng was absent-minded. After taking two sips, she began to sigh: "When will this world be able to settle down?"

Aunt Deng frowned and said, "How can someone who is robbing an execution ground have fire bombs?"

The fire bomb is something that the Spark Army keeps very close watch on.

With the situation that occurred today, Aunt Deng felt that the Xinghuo Army was beginning to become unstable.

This somewhat damaged her confidence in the Spark Army.

I am even more worried about the future.

I believe other people probably feel the same way.
