Since it was Master Zhao who asked to gather, Old Wu didn't think too much, wiped his hands, and went straight out, but he didn't forget to tell Gu Sheng to tidy up the place.

Looking at the bags of flour lying in the corner, Gu Sheng reluctantly shook his hands, loosened his bones, and did some physical work every day.

......

"Where is the person who looks after the kid?"

The deep tone was lukewarm, flat as water, and even a slight change in tone could not be heard, but even so, everyone in the lobby could still hear the hidden anger in it, and they all lowered their heads, not daring to make a sound.

Zhao Mu, who didn't hear the answer, pressed his voice and asked again,

"Deaf and dumb, or... dead?"

After saying the last two words, some bandits couldn't stand it anymore and pushed the two little Luo Luo who were guarding Gu Sheng out.

Only to hear their speechless excuses,

"Master Zhao, we, we didn't mean it, it was that, that boy, no, no, we..."

"Uh!!!"

Before he finished speaking, all the words were choked in the burst throat, and he didn't even have time to look at the man who killed him.

The people around him were already so frightened that they pissed their pants on the spot and collapsed in place, but even so frightened, he didn't dare to make a sound, as if he was stupid, and stared blankly at the body of his former brother.

Not long after, two expressionless people dragged his body out.

The lobby has been in this eerie silence for a long time, almost all the men in the village have gathered here, with hundreds of eyes, none of them can clearly see how he shot, but at the same time, another thought lingers in everyone In people's hearts, the horror of this man is far less than this.

"Why kill people!"

The old village lord retired and left everything to Zhao Mu, who had just arrived. He was always criticized, but usually relying on the coercion of the village lord and Miss Shen Yue's utmost protection, there were hundreds of people in the village who spoke up and down. Dare to speak too much, but his actions are vicious and vicious. If you don't say these two things, you don't say anything for a day or two.

"What, do you have an objection?"

The rough guy in his early years, although he was also afraid in his heart, but in front of so many people, it was difficult to retract his protruding head. He casually rolled up his sleeves, put it on his waist, and showed his big yellow teeth.

"Master Zhao has just taken office, and we don't understand the vigorous and resolute style of work, but because of the face of the old village owner, we will naturally obey, but we will obey. Master Zhao killed the brothers in the village indiscriminately. Shouldn't we be given an explanation? One day we will also become these headless ghosts who have nowhere to complain."

It would be fine if he held back, but once the bitterness poured out of his heart, even the resentment that had been in the village for several months dissipated, and the people below began to whisper to each other, feeling a little eager to move.

Zhao Mu sneered, he naturally knew that it would be difficult to convince the people in the village in such a short period of time, but he didn't care about it, he gently rubbed the blade with his thumb,

"He let go of the person who shouldn't be let go, you say he is a ghost who died unjustly?"

Who would have thought that as soon as the voice fell, someone in the crowd retorted,

"Even if you make a small mistake, you don't deserve to die."

"Sin doesn't deserve death, sin doesn't deserve death..."

Zhao Mu said these words, walked back and forth in the hall, stopped suddenly, turned around and asked,

"Then what do you think deserves to die?"

The man didn't even think about it,

"Kill for life".

Zhao Mu took the opportunity,

"Then how do you survive here?"

Seeing that he couldn't answer, Zhao Mu asked again,

"Kill who and pay for what life? Who are you? Why do you take root here?"

A series of questions, no one dared to answer, they are not bandits, some are out of money and desperate, some are wanted by the government for killing people who should not be killed, there is nowhere to hide, even if there is no blood on their hands, they can't escape stealing chickens and dogs without visible light , but now he accused Zhao Mu with a face of upholding justice. This slap really made his cheeks flushed with pain.

A clear and elegant voice suddenly broke the silence,

"Since my father handed over the stockade to Brother Zhao Mu, it is his decision here. If there is any objection, you can leave, and we will not stop it."

"I have seen the eldest lady".

Shen Yue nodded, and walked in. She also heard that something happened here, so she rushed over. Who would have thought that when she arrived at the door, she would hear these random chattering, making brother Zhao Mu unhappy.

Most of the people in the hall are homeless or have committed serious crimes and cannot be seen in the market. If they leave here, it will be tantamount to exposing these street rats to the sun, revealing their true colors and having nowhere to hide.

Seeing that they finally settled down, Zhao Mu withdrew his coercion and asked lightly,

"Has anyone been found yet?"

He glanced at the crowd, always feeling weird, as if someone was peeping.

"When I returned to Master Zhao's house, I searched the village inside and out, up and down, but I still didn't see that kid. Maybe, maybe he has already escaped."

As soon as this remark came out, Zhao Mu refuted it on the spot,

"impossible",

The village is tightly guarded, and with his skills, it is absolutely impossible for him to slip away quietly under so many noses... unless someone covers him up. Thinking of this, Zhao Mu's deep eyes sank. Temperament, buying people's hearts should not be difficult.

"Anyone else not here?"

Zhao Mu glanced at the people below, with a trace of inquiry in his thick voice,

"Look up for me, and see who is missing by your side."

Everyone listened to the order and looked around, and there was indeed no shortage.

But at this time a voice suddenly sounded,

"No, there is no less, it is more, one more!"

He clearly saw a kid go to the back kitchen just now, and he hasn't shown up until now, but there are quite a few people in the lobby now, so who was that person just now?

Shen Yue squinted at the rough man,

"Say clearly, what's too much."

"Answer, miss, I just met a little kid on the road who went to the back kitchen and hasn't come back yet."

"Little baby?"

It was Zhao Mu who asked this question.

"No, no, it's a small man",

When the rough man spoke, he gestured towards his chest.

Zhao Mu's eyes were very poisonous, and he immediately saw that it was Gu Sheng's height.

Seeing that she had a clue, Shen Yue flicked her whip and yelled angrily at this mother-in-law, rough man,

"What do you do in the back kitchen, you should explain it clearly at once!"

Zhao Mu frowned, not liking this overly courteous woman very much.

The rough guy answered truthfully,

"He said he was hungry and wanted to find something to eat".

"No, what he is looking for is flour",

Hearing this, the cook named Old Wu suddenly said.

Zhao Mu and Shen Yue looked at each other, what did he want the flour for.

"It's not good, it's not good, Mr. Zhao's family, there's a fire outside, no, it's blown up, it's blown up!"

A disgraced guard suddenly barged in.

"Aren't you going to say all these things? Tell me what's blown up!"

Shen Yue looked at these unsatisfactory things, sneaked a glance at Zhao Mu, her face was gloomy, and she was really angry.

"The stockade was blown up, everything outside was blown up, miss, head of the house, go out and have a look."

Can't count on this bunch of trash.

Just as Zhao Mu was about to lift his feet, he felt a violent shaking under his body, several untenable ones had rolled into a ball, and the walls of the lobby began to fall into dust and collapse.

Seeing this, Shen Yue quickly moved closer to Zhao Mu, her fingers tightly tugging at his sleeves, her tone a little anxious,

"Brother Zhao Mu, what should we do?"

Zhao Mu's eyes flickered coldly, but he didn't push Shen Yue away,

"Everyone evacuated quickly",

After saying this, he took Shen Yue out with him.

As soon as he arrived at the door, there was another loud explosion, and he brought Shen Yue to the servants,

"Bring Miss to the old village master",

After explaining this sentence, he left quickly.

"Hey, Brother Zhao Mu!"

Seeing that the young lady seemed to follow, the servant hurriedly pulled him down. The situation outside is unclear, so he can't let the young lady do anything wrong at this time, if something happens, he can't afford to apologize.
