Su Rong didn't feel anything.
As for this Aji, as early as when he appeared when Fu Dingping died, Su Rong had already thought of a hundred ways to kill him in his mind, and today he finally realized it.
Anyway, he has disliked these people for a very long time. Someone should pay for the lives of those children, those innocent children and Han people. What he gets now is just a little interest.
Aji's natal Gu had been broken by Allen, and now that Aji was dead, the remaining wizards did not cause any big trouble under Allen's suppression. It's just that these people were very stubborn, and even though they had no chance of winning, none of them was willing to beg for mercy. Instead, some of them wanted to die with the children on the donkey cart.
But they were all beaten to death by Su Rong.
Soon all these people were dealt with. Su Rong nodded to Allen to express his gratitude and said softly, "I'll handle this. The people in front may not be able to hold on for much longer. I'll have to trouble you to help."
Their people had been keeping an eye on Aji. After Aji left the town, some people surrounded the town. So Aji had given a signal before, but no one came to rescue him because those people were blocked at the town gate and couldn't get through. However, there were still many Miao people in the town, and some of them were Gu Miao, so Su Rong was still worried.
Now that Aji has been dealt with, Allen had no objection. Hearing Su Rong say this, he nodded and went forward with a few tribesmen.
Su Rong was left with a team of people to check on the children first.
The children were all very frightened. Even after the ropes were released, they sat there with stiff hands and feet, looking at Su Rong in horror, not daring to move at all.
Su Rong saw the boy who was kicked on the road before, and couldn't help but walk up to him and asked him softly: "What's your name?"
Perhaps it was because these people were against the Miao people, or perhaps it was because Su Rong's attitude was too gentle, making people feel his kindness. The child hesitated for a while, and finally spoke hesitantly: "Yongcheng, my name is Zhao Yongcheng!"
Su Rong touched his head and asked, "Do you remember where you are from?"
For some reason, Zhao Yongcheng suddenly felt an itch in his throat. He nodded with a choked voice, "I remember that I am from Datong, Shanxi. My father is a businessman... My family is in the timber business. I followed my father on a business trip, but was kidnapped halfway and brought here."
After all, he is still a child. Although he has a relatively calm temperament, he couldn't help crying when he talked about his hometown and relatives.
As soon as he started crying, all the other children started crying too.
Being raised in this inexplicable place, the Miao people did not treat them as human beings and required them to bleed after a period of time. They were actually very scared, and it was not until this moment that they found an opportunity to vent.
Su Rong let them cry until they could stop crying, then he nodded to the people below, signaled them to bring out some dry food, and then he greeted the children and comforted them in a concise manner: "I know you have suffered, don't worry, we are not bad people, we are soldiers of the court, you are safe. Now, our people will take you to a safe place, and when this matter is over, we will post a notice to find your relatives, okay?"
The children took the dry food and gobbled it up greedily.
It was Zhao Yongcheng who shouted the loudest first: "Okay!"
The other children were immediately infected and all said yes loudly.
Su Rong smiled, encouraged them a few words, and then told Qing Kun: "Take them to Lord He for punishment. Tell Lord He that these children must not make any mistakes and ask them to be careful."
Qingkun responded and sent the children away with a group of soldiers.
Su Rong then led his troops forward.
The team in front was indeed stopped by the poisonous insects, snakes and ants of the Miao people. Fortunately, Allen arrived in time. With the help of Allen and others, the Miao people who arrived in Beizhen soon could not hold on. When Su Rong arrived, he fired his muskets at the most ferocious ones, and the situation was completely stabilized.
As soon as they entered Beizhen, Su Rong first ordered the army to search the ancestral hall and the places that He Chaoyan had been taken to before, to control all the Miao people, and then let Allen deal with the places where there might be these messy things.
To avoid unnecessary casualties among officers and soldiers.
Allen was very cooperative this time, and worked hard to dispose of all the dirty things in the town overnight.
Things were progressing smoothly here, and Su Rong asked someone to pass a message to Xiao Heng, but at the same time he couldn't help but worry.
It was actually okay for them to arrive in Beizhen. Although Beizhen was a town with many Miao people, it was not controlled by the core group. However, the Lijiang Village that Xiao Heng and his team were going to encircle was different.
The legendary old monster-like old man is just outside Jiangzhai. Plus, all the people living there are native Miao people. I'm afraid it will be much more difficult to deal with there than here.
The only thing to be thankful for was that there were more than a thousand muskets, and with Apo and Hei Po Po from the Heihua Miao Village following them, people could still breathe a sigh of relief.
He silently worried for Xiao Heng in his heart.
In fact, Xiao Heng's trip was much smoother than he had imagined.
The Miao village is not full of powerful Gu Miao and wizards, there are also many ordinary people with no skills. Led by Hei Po Po and others, they first surrounded the outer village. In the process, they did not lose many people, which was already remarkable.
Because if the court relied on these officials and soldiers, they really had no way to deal with those poisonous insects and obstacles.
Therefore, it was not until Su Rong and his companions reached the village and the mountainside that they began to hear any movement on the mountain.
Aji's father was originally asleep, but was awakened by a loud noise.
That sound...
He immediately sat up from the quilt. Seeing that Aji's mother had also sat up, he didn't care about her and hurriedly put on his clothes and got out of bed.
Aji's mother followed behind in panic: "Dad, what happened? That sound just now..."
It seemed that the mountain guardian god here was alarmed.
Aji Niang had been married for so many years that she naturally knew that the village was not only guarded by people, but also by many things. Once someone broke in, an alarm would be sounded.
This was the first time that Aji's mother had heard of such a thing making such a noise.
Aji's father didn't bother to answer. He knew something had happened, but he didn't know what it was. He impatiently left Aji's mother aside and hurried out the door.
