Chapter 165 The Murderer

14days ago Science fiction 8
The men in Lingchuan seem to have handed over their weapons, and they are walking naked, without showing any threats.

Many people even hung up the lottery and supported each other and climbed to the small square with difficulty.

Cheng Zijie took Li Jianbin to meet him. Captain Deng hurried to the front of the team and said with a smile: Boss, I'll bring them all back.

Cheng Zijie nodded and looked at Lingchuan's team

The people of Lingchuan were a little nervous and confused. Cheng Zijie signaled them to rest on the spot, and then asked Captain Deng: Old Deng, it seems to be quite smooth. Are any brothers injured?

Commander Deng shook his head with a smile: No, it didn't start fighting at all. When we arrived, they had just finished fighting. The group of people who ran back from Baiwei controlled the people left behind in Lingchuan. Then they were fighting for what to do in the future. I sent someone to tell them that all the people they brought with them were dead. The abbot was also taken away by the army. I asked them if they wanted to follow the boss. They sent someone to the plane to take a look, and then fought for a while. Finally, the brother Commander Deng pointed to a middle-aged man behind him: Resisting the opposition, he brought the brothers of Lingchuan out and told me that he would be willing to follow the boss.

Cheng Zijie looked at the middle-aged man. He was very tall but a little thin. There were two scars on his blue and white face, which looked inconspicuous.

But since you can control the situation, you must have some ability

Cheng Zijie smiled and stretched out his hand: What's the name?

The young Huang Zhengbiao has met the boss

The man held Cheng Zijie's hand in both hands, held it respectfully and shook it, then let go

Cheng Zijie knew that they were very nervous now, afraid that Xingdao would take a wrong step, and smiled and said: Don't be nervous, they will be all the family when they come.

Huang Zhengbiao frowned and replied cautiously: Hey...yes...thank you, boss, just heard from Boss Deng that the one who came to beat him twice before was actually yours, not the Jade Buddha Temple said that we have hurt you... Even if the boss doesn't care, he doesn't know that others think so...

Cheng Zijie smiled and said: This is the time and there are moments. It was the enemy before, but there were no guns and bullets on the battlefield. It is inevitable that they will suffer from death and injury.

Huang Zhengbiao then felt a little relieved: Then please tell me some good things to your brothers... If there are any brothers who were accidentally injured by us, we will go and be punished and kowtowed and apologized.

Cheng Zijie shook his head: No need... If you want to say it's hurt, I have been beaten by you myself.

As he talked and laughed, rolled up his sleeves, revealing the wound on his arm that had just removed the gauze. The wound was barely healed, and the pink new flesh was still uneven

Huang Zhengbiao was shocked: Hey... We deserve to die... As he said that, he was about to kneel down. Cheng Zijie held his shoulder in advance: It's okay, since you can recognize the situation and everyone is going to survive together, how can I pursue the past mistakes again

Thank you, boss... Thank you, boss... Huang Zhengbiao's head was like a chicken pecking at rice. Cheng Zijie smiled and said: OK, don't talk about this, you know that your abbot has been taken away, right

Alas... we went to the plane to see... Huang Zhengbiao shook his head and didn't say anything more

Cheng Zijie continued: It seems that the army may not necessarily help us, and may threaten our safety... So, our Jiaozhou, Jade Buddha Temple, Xinjin, and Liuwang's heads have discussed it here just now, and decided to wait and see, but now Xinjin is threatened by zombies, so we can only fight on our own, so I sent Lao Deng to invite you to join

After listening quietly, Huang Zhengbiao said with a smile: Since we are here, everything will be followed by the boss's arrangements in the future.

Cheng Zijie nodded: Then I'm not polite. How many people have you brought here?

There are thirty-five men and two hundred and eighty-eight women... Some of the others are from Baiwei. Relatives and friends went to Jade Buddha Temple and didn't want to come here. Some of them have always had a dislike with me and refused to come with me. They went there by themselves.

Huang Zhengbiao looked at Cheng Zijie nervously. Cheng Zijie also knew that Lingchuan had lost most of the strong men in the transport plane, so the men and women who stayed were disproportionate, but now that things have come to this, they have to accept them all.

I pondered for a while: OK, you still have food or something else there?

Yes, yes... We still have more than 20 tons of grain and many other daily necessities. Let the boss send someone to transport it... Huang Zhengbiao quickly said with a smile

Cheng Zijie nodded, just as he was about to arrange for people and cars to transport all the inventory of Lingchuan when it was not dark, so as not to be taken over by Zhu Laowu. After all, there were hundreds of mouths to eat at once, and the food was more abundant.

Suddenly, a woman screamed from behind her: Murderer!!

Everyone was surprised and looked in the direction where the screams came

There were several women who were about to come out to make dinner at the air-raid shelter. The one who screamed was Bai Yaqiong who was helping in the kitchen. She had a pale face and a blood-colored face. She held Du Xiaowan's hand tightly and shouted: Xiaowan! That's the one who shot your father to death.

Cheng Zijie was shocked. The mother and daughter looked at who else could it be if they were not Huang Zhengbiao.

Bai Yaqiong suddenly took Du Xiaowan's hand and ran to Cheng Zijie. The mother and daughter knelt down at Cheng Zijie, and then Bai Yaqiong cried bitterly: Boss! This person was the murderer who killed my husband that morning. My husband was unarmed because he refused to believe in the Bodhisattva of the Plague Lord, and he was beaten to death...

Du Xiaowan also cried and hugged Bai Yaqiong's arm: Big brother, he is a bad guy...

Cheng Zijie looked like Huang Zhengbiao, Huang Zhengbiao's eyes flashed, his face turned pale, and his expression was extremely nervous. Obviously, Bai Yaqiong was talking about the truth.

This matter suddenly became troublesome, which made Cheng Zijie feel quite tricky

Before he could say anything, Bai Yaqiong knelt on the ground and moved to Cheng Zijie, and kowtowed: Boss, you want to uphold justice for us... to avenge Xizhi...

Cheng Zijie sighed, reached out to hold Bai Yaqiong's plump and soft arm, gently pulled her up, then picked up Du Xiaowan, looked at them with some embarrassment and said: You guys admit your mistake, right?

Bai Yaqiong burst into tears and choked and said: How could he admit his mistake? I recognize him even if he turns into ashes...

At this time, Huang Zhengbiao knelt down with a pounce: Sister! I have killed someone, but I can't do anything about it. Now the world is like this... If I don't kill, I will be punished. The bullets are not eyebrowed. We have also injured the boss, and the boss has not pursued him... I didn't know you at that time...

Did you fight when you killed my husband? My husband has given up resisting and doesn’t even have a nail on his hand!

Bai Yaqiong cried out loudly

Huang Zhengbiao finally lowered his head and muttered: I really can't do anything... I have nothing to say if I want me to pay my life, don't make things difficult for other brothers...

The small square became quiet for a moment. Everyone was watching, but it was silent, leaving only the crying of the mother and daughter of the Du family.

Cheng Zijie knew that he had to make a decision by himself now and could not delay. After all, everyone was waiting for him to speak, and he couldn't ask his assistants for his opinion on this matter, so he had to make a decision by biting the bullet.

He watched the mother and daughter clear their throats: Sister Bai, Xiaowan, although he did kill Brother Du in the past, when he came here today, it was not us who arrested him, but I invited them to come. If I arrest him now and pay my life for Brother Du, will we, and my brothers, all of us, become despicable villains?

Huang Zhengbiao on the ground suddenly shook all over and looked at Cheng Zijie blankly. The mother and daughter of the Du family were also full of tears. The two beautiful eyes were filled with disappointment and sadness.

Cheng Zijie sighed: They handed over their weapons and came here unarmedly. If I kill him in such a situation, what's the difference between him and killing your husband

Everyone was listening quietly, while the Du family mother and daughter hugged each other and started crying

Cheng Zijie hardened his heart and continued: Sorry, Sister Bai, under the current circumstances, I really can't let him pay your husband a good life. Although it was the order of the superior, he could not shirk responsibility for killing the prisoner. I believe he could not deny the problem himself... Even if he deserves to die, I can't let him down his weapons and bring so many people to join us.

Huang Zhengbiao on the ground muttered softly: Boss...

Cheng Zijie nodded to him and turned around and continued: Sister Bai, Xiaowan, please understand my difficulties. Although Brother Du was killed by him, the main responsibility is that the leader of the cult who gave the order was guilty of the great crime. Now that the whereabouts are unknown, I promise you that if I find him again, I will avenge Brother Du, other innocent brothers, and the sisters who were burned to death.

Bai Yaqiong cried even harder, and suddenly supported Du Xiaowan and was about to faint softly Cheng Zijie said quickly: Xiaowan, help your mother go back to rest, don't work today

Du Xiaowan agreed crying, and helped Bai Yaqiong slowly walk towards the air-raid shelter entrance.

Cheng Zijie sighed, hardened his heart and no longer looked at them, but turned his head to look at Huang Zhengbiao on the ground: Brother Huang, although I can't let you pay for your life, it is a fact that you killed someone. If there is no punishment at all, it is really unreasonable... Let's do this, if you are here, you have to start with the lowest-level soldiers and do the hard and tiring work first.

Huang Zhengbiao didn't dare to fight for anything, and he kept kowtowing: Yes, yes

So Cheng Zijie swept his eyes over everyone in the small square and said loudly: This matter has come to an end. In the future, the brothers in Lingchuan will be their own family. Everyone doesn’t have to mention the past. In the future, they will work together to live together.

For a moment, everyone, the original and the newly-known people from Lingchuan, stood up and agreed in unison: Yes!
