Chapter 386 Calculation
There were more than a dozen people in the group, and Xiaoman only kept three in the end.
Not long after, Xu Wenyan and the villagers arrived.
Seeing the corpse on the ground, no one reacted much.
Death is very normal in this era.
Xu Wenyan walked over and looked at Xiaoman, then Xu Wenyan and Xiaoman each took away a bandit and walked to the side.
"Tell me, who ordered you to do this?" Xu Wenyan threw the man to the ground. The black bear circled around him, growling continuously.
"We are just a group of ordinary people. You kill people in broad daylight. Is there any law?" The man's voice trembled, pretending to be very pitiful.
Xu Wenyan kicked him to the ground again and threw a machete in front of him: "Ordinary people have brought more than a dozen men with knives out, do you think I am a fool?
I tell you, I have no grudge against you, as long as you tell me who is behind you, I will spare your life."
The man wanted to explain himself, but was interrupted by Xu Wenyan, "You also know that we country folk are the most united.
If you die in our village, even if I chop you into pieces and feed you to the dogs, I'm afraid your body won't be intact if everyone in our village gives a unified testimony."
As Xu Wenyan spoke, the black bear beside him also barked twice, walked forward, grabbed the man's sleeve and tore it.
"I said! I said, don't kill me, don't kill me." This man was obviously frightened by Xu Wenyan, and his body kept shaking.
"That's right. If you don't tell me, do you think your two accomplices won't tell me?" Xu Wenyan calmed Black Bear down and straightened the man's clothes.
After a while, Xiaoman and Xu Wenyan brought people back together.
The difference from Xu Wenyan's side is that Xiaoman brought back a dead body, and the man would rather die than confess.
But it doesn’t matter now. Xu Wenyan already knows who wants to target Wang Zeren, or Wei Ren.
Afterwards, because the people from Jixiang Village came to Xujia Village with such a large momentum, the other bandits were no longer seen.
This is exactly the result Xu Wenyan wants to see most.
These villagers are far inferior to those desperadoes.
After Chen Xingjie negotiated with the village chief Xu, he found the two seriously injured people in the home of the elderly couple.
Xu Wenyan came with some plaster, and after carefully disinfecting and bandaging them, he settled the two of them here.
When they woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
Wei Ren felt his head was extremely dizzy. He held his head and managed to stand up: "Brother Wang...Brother Wang!"
His mind cleared instantly and he looked around anxiously until he saw that Wang Zeren next to him was fine.
As soon as I turned around, I saw Xu Wenyan's face full of disbelief.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"When did you become so close to Wang Zeren? If someone doesn't know, they would think he is your father." Xu Wenyan said, touching the medicine in his hand.
Wei Ren was about to retort, “You…” But he only moved slightly, and the wound tore a little more.
"What do you mean by 'you'? I am your savior, you wicked and heartless person."
As soon as he opened his eyes, Wei Ren knew that it was Xu Wenyan who saved him, but he and Xu Wenyan really didn't get along.
In the past, I was against Wang Zeren because it was a psychological tendency.
He really hated Xu Wenyan, and he couldn't scold her enough to beat her... and he was in his house, and the big black dog alone was enough to make him angry.
"I...I won't bother with you."
Xu Wenyan rolled his eyes and sat on the bed: "Take off your clothes for me."
Wei Ren looked Xu Wenyan up and down: "What are you doing? I already have eight wives."
"Tsk, do you deserve a beating? I should have thrown you out to feed the dogs last night!" Xu Wenyan ignored him, forcibly ripped off his clothes, and began to apply medicine.
"I don't even look at you, why are you so narcissistic? Do you have some kind of delusion?"
Wei Ren stared at Xu Wenyan, and didn't know what to say. It was indeed he who saved him and Wang Zeren.
"I told you, I won't argue with you."
Xu Wenyan touched his head and said, "Oh, I see, Brother Xianxiang. Be good."
As the two were arguing, Wang Zeren slowly opened his eyes.
"Go and give him some more medicine."
"This is a dressing change."
Xu Wenyan carefully helped Wang Zeren up and leaned him against the wall.
"Wen Yan, you saved me." Wang Zeren smiled.
"That's right, do you expect this imaginary brother next to you to save you?"
Wang Zeren looked at the angry Wei Ren next to him, and then looked at Xu Wenyan: "I knew you would come to save me."
"Hey, your two names are so weird. Why do you both have 'Ren' in them?"
Wang Zeren replied: "My parents knew each other, and to appear close, they both took the character 'Ren', but our characters are different.
Xu Wenyan also pulled open Wang Zeren's clothes and looked at him meaningfully: "Yes, you two have a story." He now understood that taking action directly could save a lot of effort.
"Wen Yan, it's not good for you to take off my clothes like this. Wei Ren is still here." Wang Zeren joked.
Xu Wenyan frowned and looked at Wang Zeren, then suddenly thought of something and looked at Wei Ren with a sly smile: "It's okay, I don't mind the three of us being together."
After hearing this, Wei Ren's eyes widened: "Hey hey hey! Damn it, if you want to do it, don't take me with you! I know you southerners like this.
I'm straight! No! Don't come over here!"
"You are narcissistic, but I can't tell you're joking. I don't care about you."
Xu Wenyan was really horrified when he saw the injuries on these people. They were no more serious than those they had suffered in the shelter.
Xu Wenyan was a little more careful when applying medicine to Wang Zeren.
"By the way, last night, we caught some people and asked some questions."
"Have you found out who did it?"
Xu Wenyan nodded: "Yes, but I don't know that person. He is called Gao Bin."
"Gao Bin? Damn it, I knew that the damn kid was up to no good!" Wei Ren seemed very excited when he heard this.
"Is Gao Bin from your military camp?" Xu Wenyan asked.
"Yes, almost. But he was born better than us. He is in the military camp in Shangjing."
"So he has a connection with you?"
Wei Ren snorted disdainfully: "Humph, that bastard is one year older than me. We are both sons of generals."
The two men told Xu Wenyan roughly what happened in the Pingchuan Campaign.
It’s just that Wang Zeren omitted a lot of details.
"In that battle, his grandfather's credit was snatched away by General Wang. My father rose to prominence because of it, so naturally I don't like him, but I didn't expect that bastard would use such despicable means." Wei Ren said calmly.
“It’s really disgusting, and you can’t convict him based on what he said.
I thought this was planned by the Chu family of Changling?" Xu Wenyan put away the ointment and sat cross-legged on the bed.
"The Chu family? I've never heard of it."
Xu Wenyan told the two of them about Miss Chu and the letter from home.
“It’s just that Miss Chu was hit and killed that day. I originally thought they hired assassins to silence her.
I didn't expect it was aimed at you, the unfortunate child."
"I will also look into the Chu family's affairs when I return. Wen Yan, thank you very much."
Xu Wenyan waved his hand: "That's about it, you two should take good care of your injuries, I will pick you up to go to my place in two days.
As for the other soldiers, we haven’t found them yet, I’m afraid they are probably…”
"I understand. Wei Ren and I will investigate this matter thoroughly. Thank you for your help." Wang Zeren thanked Xu Wenyan solemnly.
Xu Wenyan sent the two people caught yesterday to the home of Village Chief Xu and locked them up.
As for how Wang Zeren dealt with it, it had nothing to do with Xu Wenyan.
