"ah… "
When the shrill voice came out, the people who had just breathed a sigh of relief were once again worried. They quickly looked around and asked, "What happened? What happened again?"
"This way, the sound is coming from this side."
Someone shouted, and everyone hurried towards the source of the voice. However, when they arrived at the source of the voice, they saw a maid sitting on the ground, her body trembling and her eyes looking upwards with fear.
Above
Everyone was startled and looked in the direction she was looking. When they saw this, they all gasped.
I saw four corpses hanging upside down on a big tree. Moreover, these four dead people were still wearing night clothes. They were exactly four of the eight people who followed the ancestor of the Sun family to the East City Lord’s Mansion tonight!
"hiss!"
"This, this..."
“They found it… They found it…”
Everyone was stunned by this scene, especially the other four who followed their ancestor to the East City Lord's Mansion tonight. After seeing this scene, the shock in their hearts reached the top of their heads. An overwhelming sense of fear filled their hearts, making them confused, frightened and horrified.
The people who were beside them just now were killed in the blink of an eye, and were hung upside down on a big tree. The four corpses were dressed in black and hung upside down, like bats in the night, with pale faces and wide-open eyes, as if they had seen something horrifying. That look was deeply imprinted in their minds, making them unable to get rid of it and filled with fear.
"They're coming... They're coming... Who's next? Who's next?"
One of the Sun family members, dressed in black, stepped back tremblingly, looking dazed and his face as pale as paper. He seemed to have lost his mind, holding his head in his hands and muttering in shock.
"Bang!"
Another member of the Sun family who was wearing a nightgown could not withstand the shock that went straight to his heart. He swayed, his eyes went dark, and he fainted from fright and fell heavily to the ground.
The other two were trembling, unable to utter a word for a long time, but their hands under their sleeves were shaking, their legs were weak, and their lips were pale. They held on and looked towards their hometown nearby, and there was a hint of separation and hatred in their eyes.
"Ancestor! Something like this has happened. What do you think we should do? Four more have died. Four more have died! How many people in our Sun family can afford to die like this?"
They spoke hatefully, their fear turning into rage. If they had hesitated and worried before about capturing Qi Kang, then at this moment, they almost turned this hesitation and worry into anger and hatred. They felt that it was the ancestor who had put them into such an irretrievable situation.
If Sun Wei had been killed early to vent his hatred, perhaps, perhaps these things would not have happened!
At this moment, the Sun family ancestor's face was solemn and his mood was heavy. For the first time, he felt fear, hesitation, and doubt in his heart.
Am I wrong to do this
It was for this reason that he could not say a word when being questioned angrily by the two men. He had not expected such a situation. He thought that by arresting Qi Kang, he could force him to tell about his origins and weaknesses. He thought that after arresting Qi Kang, the other party would be afraid of him. However, he did not expect that his plan backfired.
