Chapter 1807
1807 Chapter 1809 — the marks of the whip wounds were very familiar
Gong Jue spoke.
His voice was still hoa.r.s.e, deep, and weathered. It was difficult to a.s.sociate him with the former chief of the Empire. “There’s no need to cover up. We’ll rush out directly. Those who committed crimes here are all Wu Tianxiong’s subordinates. With that b.a.s.t.a.r.d Wu Tianxiong leading the way, his subordinates don’t dare to act Rashly.”
Gong Jue’s words implied that he had confidence in the engineers he had personally led. He believed that they would never do such a thing to humiliate women, much less stop them from saving them.
!!
The ones who would stop them would only be Wu Tianxiong’s subordinates!
Gu Qiqi curled her lips. Tsk, what an arrogant and awkward man. Can’t you just say, “I believe in my disciples”? Or you can just wave your arms and call out your ident.i.ty and ask the old engineer to give you the green light?
Is it that difficult to admit that you are Gong Jue?
As if sensing Gu Qiqi’s emotions, Gong Jue pulled on his hood and turned his face away.
Everything was just as Gong Jue had said. When the women walked out of the tent, they immediately attracted the attention of the outside world.
However, when some of the old engineers realized that it was the women who wanted to escape, they pretended not to see it and went back to their rooms without saying a word. They even closed the curtains tightly and did not leave the room, they acted as if this had never happened.
As soon as some of the newcomers came out, they shouted and pounced on them, wanting to capture them.
In the end, they were easily defeated by Gong Jue’s subordinates.
Or when they saw Wu Tianxiong being escorted in front, they were like cowardly turtles and did not dare to show themselves again.
After successfully walking out of the 2000-person encampment, the group of people were full of pride and they looked very cool!
They rushed back to the small village overnight. The women were collecting the bodies of their relatives with tears in their eyes.
Gu Qiqi brought the sisters-in-law to the small courtyard at the end of the village.
As soon as they entered the courtyard, the daughter-in-law staggered and tried to crawl to the side of her twin children. She hugged her children, who had lost their body temperature, and burst into tears!
The young girl ran to the pile of corpses. “Brother! Mother! Uncle… !”
No one answered her.
They had been dead for a long time.
Gu Qiqi’s eyes dimmed. She took a deep breath and patted her shoulder. “Let’s go and see your father. He’s still alive…”
The girl bit her lips and held back her tears. Her arms, which had been broken by the enemy, had not recovered so quickly after taking the medicine given by Gu Qiqi. They still hung limply on both sides when she walked.
She followed Gu Qiqi into the room.
Gu Qiqi remembered that before she left, she had placed the old man on a pile of soft hay to lie on. However, she did not see the old man when she entered the room. Could it be that the weather was cold and he had climbed into the inner room by himself?
However, when she entered the inner room, everyone was stunned again!
They saw that the old man, who was originally in good health and had dodged a calamity, had collapsed on the fire bed on his back.
He was already dead!
His entire body was covered with the marks of a whip!
It was clear that he had suffered quite a lot before he died!
The man who had been buried in a pile of dead bodies twice and had managed to escape by a fluke did not manage to escape this time.
Just a day and a night had pa.s.sed, and he would no longer be able to see his beloved daughter and his filial daughter-in-law.
“Daddy! Daddy!”The girl pounced on him and sobbed.
Gu Qiqi closed her eyes. “I’m sorry. I promised your father that I would bring you back. Although I did it, I didn’t expect him… to be gone.”
Gong jue frowned and went forward to check the wound. He was too familiar with the marks of the whip. “The whip used the specially made steel whip of the empire. The killers are still that group of people!”
Gong Jue’s judgment was refuted by Wu Er
