"Okay, just stand here, I ask, you answer, if there is a lie, your leader's fate will be your fate, do you understand?" Zhu Yan said expressionlessly.
The young man nodded quickly. At this time, it didn't matter whether he had any integrity or moral integrity. What was important was to save his life first.
Zhu Yan pointed at the man in brown shirt lying in a pool of blood and asked, "Who is he? Why is he the leader of your guard in this ancient tribe?"
The young man said with a trembling voice: "I, I don't know who he is. A month ago, our leader suddenly died suddenly, and he came here, saying that he was our new leader, and asked us to obey his orders."
Zhu Yan asked again: "What happened to the ancient tribe?"
The young man shook his head again: "We don't know either. It's just that we have never seen the patriarch or the young patriarch in the past month."
Xia Yuanqiu continued: "Then who is in charge of the affairs of the ancient clan?"
The young man said hurriedly: "I know this, it's Elder Bai. Elder Bai has been in charge of the affairs of the ancient clan for the past month."
"Where is Elder Bai? Among this ancient clan?" Xia Yuanqiu asked.
The young man shook his head: "Elder Bai left the ancient tribe three days ago and he hasn't come back yet!"
Xia Yuanqiu said to Zhu Yan: "It seems they don't know much. There's no point in asking. Let them go!"
Zhu Yan nodded, waved to the young man, and said: "Remember, we are friends of the ancient tribe, not enemies. You should open your eyes and see clearly who is your enemy."
After Zhu Yan finished speaking, he turned around and walked hand in hand with Xia Yuanqiu towards the closed gate of the main courtyard.
The guards looked at each other, not knowing whether to leave or stay.
The young man returned to the crowd and said, "I don't think they are bad people. Let's take a look here first and see what they want to do."
The young man's proposal was quickly approved by everyone. After all, they were also people who received the ancient clan's monthly salary. How could they escape so irresponsibly
Under the attention of all the guards, Zhu Yan knocked on the main courtyard door, but there was no response from inside. He knocked on it several times, but still no one responded to him.
This is obviously not normal. How could there be no attendants in the courtyard where the patriarch lives? Even if the clan leader is away, there will be attendants staying in the courtyard to take care of the affairs.
Zhu Yan did not knock on the door again, but directly kicked the door panel with his foot, knocking down the already thin door panel and the door frame.
The whole door fell down, and the sunlight fell into the dim room. Under the bed, several people were tied up. Some people stared at Zhu Yan and Xia Yuanqiu who suddenly appeared in front of them. Some people were lying on the ground, motionless. , not knowing whether to live or die, there are still people who are constantly twitching, with cloth balls stuffed in their mouths. They can't make any sounds and can only express their emotions with their eyes.
Being able to express emotions with their eyes and prove that they are still alive is the best result.
The bodies of the other two people were already stiff, and they had obviously been dead for a long time. The house was filled with a strong stench.
The filthy feces and urine all over the place, along with the stench of decaying corpses, are disgusting! !
Zhu Yan didn't want to touch them. He turned to the group of guards outside and said, "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you come over to help?"
The guards came to their senses and hurriedly rushed into the bedroom to untie their old patriarch, young patriarch and others.
There were seven people in the room, two were dead, three were unconscious, and only two were still conscious.
