Chapter 15 Sleeping with the Corpse
People always say that your path is the result of your own choices, and your countless choices have created your current life, but people seem to have forgotten that many times life does not give people many choices.
Either die or kill someone!
In this situation of choosing one of two, Li Zheng chose the latter without hesitation.
Disgusted, feared, regretful, and fearful, all kinds of emotions surged, and Li Zheng's chest was fluctuating violently.
It was not until the footsteps of the patrol of the mansion outside the door pulled Li Zheng back from his strong uneasiness to reality that he remembered that his crisis had not been completely resolved.
Li Zhengqiang suppressed his rolling emotions, opened his nose angrily, drank a few saliva, took a few breaths, and mustered up the courage to climb to Xiao Cui's body.
After some search, Li Zheng found a dagger in Xiao Cui's sleeve. Perhaps Li Zheng's attack was too fast just now and he pressed on Xiao Cui with all his strength, so Xiao Cui didn't have the chance to take out the dagger.
This discovery made Li Zheng feel a little more emotional - at least he did not kill the wrong person.
Li Zheng listened carefully to the footsteps outside. He didn't know how many of the patrol soldiers were Xu Zhijin's men, so he didn't dare to speak out. It was not until the soldiers of the soldiers left that Li Zheng dragged Xiao Cui's body to the bed, took off his shirt, left only a bellyband, and then covered it with a quilt.
Then Li Zheng took off his shirt and lay shirtless beside Xiao Cui, covering his quilt together.
One man and one corpse lie down together.
As soon as he went on a trip, Li Zheng turned his head and saw Xiao Cui's wide eyes, and his eyes were dying with fear.
"Xiao Cui, if you want to kill me in front, I will kill you in full self-defense! Don't stare at me, don't worry, I won't defile your body. In fact, my taste is not that heavy." Li Zheng prayed respectfully, then closed Xiao Cui's eyes and quickly turned Xiao Cui's face to the other side.
After breathing a sigh of relief, Li Zheng knew very well that he would not last long. If Xu Zhijin's people found that Xiao Cui had not come out for a long time, they would definitely be suspicious. He had to make some disguise!
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, there are my people in the military." Li Zheng sat beside the bed to comfort himself.
That being said, there is no eyebrow for swords and swords. When the time comes, it is really hard to say whether Li Zheng can survive as the protagonist being targeted.
Once he dies, what methods will Xu Zhijin and others use, whether to deceive superiors and subordinates, or frame them, in short, the losers will never have any good endings.
"Is that what, I didn't expect that when I came here, the first person to deal with was not a zombie, but a human!"
………………………………………
At this time, Chu Zhi was anxious.
Xiao Cui and Chunhua are Lord Li’s personal maids. If Xiao Cui assassinated Li Zheng, the success rate will be quite high.
What's more, Xu Zhijin and Wang Yuan must have been planning for many days. It is impossible for them to have only Xiao Cui, a chess piece. There must be other threats around Lord Li.
What’s even more urgent is that according to Wang Yuan’s meaning, they are going to take action today!
However, the account book has not been obtained yet!
The situation at this time was beyond everyone's expectations, and it was full of dangers and was full of terrifying steps.
what to do!
Chu Zhi was anxious.
At this moment, I don’t know if it was because I couldn’t sleep alone or if I had something to worry about, Wang Yuan suddenly sat up from the bed again, "I still have to look at the account again. This time I bought so many people, it cost a lot."
Wang Yuan actually lit a candle, and the dim room was lit by a swaying candlelight.
Chu Zhi's heart was in his throat. Now, as long as Wang Yuan bypassed the closet, he could see him!
Fortunately, Wang Yuan probably didn't expect that he was not alone in the empty room at this time. There was also an artificial camera in his room...
After a burst of sensation, I wonder what Wang Yuan was looking for. After a while, Wang Yuan sat on the desk leisurely and began to look through something.
"The county magistrate has 44 soldiers in the office and 13 servants. Oh, Xu Zhijin has made up his mind and even bribed half of the soldiers and half of the servants. This cost is quite considerable."
"Mr. Lin probably never thought that he would be honest in government and devote himself to the people, but he would be killed by the people around him."
Just as Wang Yuan was concentrating on checking the accounts, a figure suddenly jumped out of the side of the wardrobe - Chu Zhi took action!
Wang Yuan stretched his neck to read a book, which was really convenient. Chu Zhi took action like lightning, and used all his strength to remove Wang Yuan's head with one knife.
If a person's head is cut off, it will not die immediately. In addition, Chu Zhi has also put all his efforts into killing him with one blow, and his hand is raised and his knife falls. So Wang Yuan himself is very surprised why he suddenly put his face on the book as he was looking at the book... Not only that, there is someone behind his head who uses water to nourish him!
It would be a bit too much to use water to nourish him!
In fact, no one took water to nourish him, his broken neck was thundering like a fountain.
Chu Zhi kicked Wang Yuan's body, grabbed Wang Yuan's head, and grabbed the account book.
The account book was covered with blood, but fortunately, the handwriting could be seen clearly. Moreover, most of the account book was done with such a thick one. With this evidence, it was enough to cure the death penalty of King Xu and the others.
In Chu Zhi's hand, Wang Yuan looked at Chu Zhi with a confused look on his face. He opened his mouth and could not speak without his vocal cords, but he vomited a large mouthful of blood.
Chu Zhi glanced at the head in his hand, and his heart was mixed.
He was accused of taking action first and then reporting, which was illegal, but now he no longer cared about so much, and he could not wait any longer. Even if he had to pay the price for it, he must keep Lord Li!
Immediately, Chu Zhi held Wang Yuan's head and learned a few cat meows through the window. In the study, Liu Dagui responded to a few cat meows.
After learning to meow together, the two quickly gathered in the courtyard.
When Liu Dagui saw what was in Chu Zhi's hand, he was stunned for a moment, but he didn't ask Wang Yuan about his head.
"Brother Chu, account book..."
"I've got it!"
Liu Dagui nodded, and the two quickly climbed up to the roof and disappeared into the night.
After leaving Wang Yuan's mansion safely, the two had time to communicate.
"Brother Chu, did you kill Wang Yuan?"
"Well. I don't have time to explain now. Fortunately, the account book has been obtained. Now you will dispatch your subordinates to arrest Xu Zhijin."
"What about you?"
"I'm going to the county government, Lord Li is in danger!"
"Mr. Li is in danger?"
Chu Zhi nodded, said no more, and quickly ran towards the county government.
Liu Dagui frowned, Chu Zhi left in a hurry, and it seemed that the situation was serious.
Taking a deep breath, Liu Dagui withdrew his gaze and looked at the other side.
They arranged dozens of military soldiers and constables to keep an eye on Xu Zhijin and be ready to start a war and arrest him at any time.
In order not to let Xu Zhijin notice it in advance, these ambushers were two streets away from Xu Zhijin's mansion, and Liu Dagui did not dare to delay any further and rushed to another direction immediately.
Chu and Liu were divided into two groups, running wildly. Both of them knew that if there was a slight delay, the situation might change.
Chu Zhi ran all the way, but he didn't forget to take off his coat and wrap Wang Yuan's head up.
Soon, Chu Zhi had already arrived at the county government office. He did not walk through the gate, but went around behind the county government office, jumped onto the inner courtyard wall.
After distinguishing the lower direction from left to right, Chu Zhi avoided the patrol soldiers, quickly passed through the courtyard, arrived at Li Zheng's dormitory, and pushed the door open and entered directly.
As soon as he entered the door, Chu Zhi was stunned.
The scene in front of him is a bit different from what he imagined...
