Chapter 423 This revenge must be taken
Su Lin rushed out of the door without thinking. When he rushed in front of Qi Zhenzhen, he was also surprised.
On the land next to grandma's house, there were more than 30 corpses lying in various directions, including men, women, old and young.
There was also a familiar face among them, it was the little boy I met before when I left the village.
"He's really worse than a beast, how can they kill him?"
Su Lin even wondered whether the soldiers came to take revenge. As the guards of the Northern Kingdom, did they treat the citizens who supported them like this?
He wants to investigate, and no matter who it is, the murderer must pay the price!
Qi Zhenzhen on the side covered her eyes. She couldn't believe what she was seeing. She had never seen such a tragic situation in her entire life.
She even regretted coming out alone and living under the protection of her father. She was like a flower in the greenhouse.
Hearing her sobs, Su Lin advised: "Don't be afraid, but I may have to wrong you a little. We have to stay here tonight."
Regardless of whether Qi Zhenzhen agreed or not, he found a shovel and buried all the corpses.
Then he cleaned up grandma's house, removed the blood, and helped Qi Zhenzhen spread the quilt, "Go to sleep, there will be enough work tomorrow."
"Don't worry, I'll be watching from the outside, don't worry."
At this moment, Su Lin was like a handsome man. Although he spoke in a cold tone, he did things that made people feel warm.
But even so, Qi Zhenzhen still didn't dare.
When she closed her eyes now, she seemed to be able to see the grandmother's body lying next to the table, so she said awkwardly: "My benefactor, can you stay with me? I don't dare..."
Su Lin naturally understood what she was thinking, so he nodded, "Okay, I'll accompany you."
Afterwards, he sat on the edge of the bed, destined to have no sleep tonight.
Thinking of the scene where he had been lying on this bed while his grandma brought hot porridge, he felt angry and subconsciously clenched his fists.
Qi Zhenzhen slept particularly soundly with Su Lin by his side?
Looking at this thin-skinned face, Su Lin smiled helplessly, "You're really big-hearted, aren't you afraid of what I might do?"
Of course, that's just saying, he is a gentleman, how could he do such a nasty thing?
Finally, in this state of grief and anger, Su Lin ushered in the sun the next day.
He took a deep breath and went to look for the murderer without further ado. Unfortunately, there were no witnesses at all.
"Are they those soldiers?"
He decided to go outside and inquire about the location of the nearby military camp.
Looking at Qi Zhenzhen who had not yet woken up, Su Lin felt very embarrassed. It was true that this girl brought him happiness, but at this moment, he felt like she was a drag.
If it was really a soldier who did it, then he would be on the opposite side of the entire Northern Kingdom. This kind of challenge would be extremely dangerous.
Su Lin didn't want her to get involved, but he couldn't bear to leave her here alone.
Finally, he decided to take her with him and woke her up.
Qi Zhenzhen rubbed his hazy eyes, and when he came to his senses, he was not in the boudoir, but in a dead room, with a man he had just met beside him.
She subconsciously looked at her chest and felt relieved when she saw that her clothes had not changed.
Although I was still sleepy, I was too tired yesterday and had no intention of sleeping now, so I got up quickly.
Su and Lin arrived at the entrance of the village and were about to leave when they suddenly saw a figure.
"Look, that looks like a person!"
Su Lin looked in the direction of Qi Zhenzhen's finger and found the afterimage of an old man hiding in a shabby pigsty.
"It seems there are still people alive in this village."
Perhaps, this was the only witness, so Su Lin quickly chased after him.
The pigsty was not big, but it was very pungent and full of filthy things. Qi Zhenzhen couldn't help but cover his mouth and nose, and even became breathless.
Inside, there is a basket, which is very conspicuous.
"Come out, grandpa, don't be afraid."
The basket remained unmoved.
Helpless, Su Lin could only step forward and lift it open. The old man's curled up figure suddenly appeared, with the dirty things already stuck to his body.
He immediately knelt down and said, "Please don't kill me! I don't know anything!"
Su Lin suppressed his nausea and explained: "Uncle, you have recognized the wrong person! We are not the murderers who massacred the village!"
The old man's eyes widened and he said in a panic: "Then, who are you?"
Su Lin sighed and could only pretend that he was here to investigate the murder and asked him if he had seen the true face of the murderer.
But as soon as he heard that it was someone from the government, he trembled all over and said nothing.
It seems that this has touched his taboo, and maybe someone from the government is responsible.
After spending a lot of time, the old man finally believed Su Lin's words and told everything about what happened last night.
After hearing this, he was furious.
"It's really these bastards!"
Yes, it was those soldiers who massacred the entire village.
It turned out that since Su Lin killed the guys who broke into grandma's house, they were thought to be missing by the team and came to investigate.
It turned out that they were dead, and a leader and others came to inquire about their whereabouts. How did Grandma and the villagers know where Su Lin had gone? They all expressed their innocence.
Are a few ordinary soldiers worth such a massive mobilization?
The old man replied: "One of the people who died was the brother of the official, so in order to vent his anger, he directly ordered everyone to be killed!"
And this old man escaped only because he was herding cattle outside and came back late.
Because he was worried that he would also fall into this situation, he hid in the pigsty for a whole day and night.
Su Lin felt a sense of sadness in his heart. It seemed that in this world, power and corruption had reached an uncontrollable level. The life of an ordinary person was like a dead dog and had no value.
"I will seek justice for you."
The old man looked at Su Lin with tears in his eyes.
Then he found out the location of the military camp, which was stationed on a plain not far from here, and Su Lin went there immediately.
He took Qi Zhenzhen to a place not far away and found that the place was heavily guarded, and there were many post-natal warriors coming in and out.
Their strength was average, but they were strong in numbers. There were seven or eight thousand people in the stationed army alone.
Su Lin knew that he could not deal with it at all, and felt powerless. He could only sigh: "Humph, one day, I will make you pay the price."
He was now eager to improve his strength, so he took Qi Zhenzhen to Lingcheng County, hoping to find more opportunities there.
Now I have some spare money in my pocket. After entering the city, I can buy some natural treasures, medicinal herbs to improve my strength, etc.
Qi Zhenzhen noticed the solemn expression on Su Lin's face, so she whispered: "Don't worry, if it was really those soldiers who did it, my father will do justice for you!"
"Your father?" Su Lin asked puzzledly.
