Chen Shi's impression of Monk Wuchen was not good at all. The monk was very worldly and snobbish, showing great politeness to Li Tianqing, who came from a noble family, while ignoring ordinary commoners.
However, Monk Wuchen stepping forward to save him at his moment of crisis and repaying his kindness allowed Chen Shi to see another side of Wuchen beyond his snobbery.
Clear about gratitude and resentment—that is what it means to be a real man.
Chen Shi praised inwardly, picking up the bowl bottom from the ground. There was still a mouthful of water left in it, barely covering the bottom.
"Granny Minjiang, I'm taking you away."
Supporting the broken bowl in his hand, Chen Shi left the place silently.
After he departed, many border garrison soldiers hurried over. Seeing corpses all over the ground, they felt a startle in their hearts, and upon seeing the corpse of Major Xia Luoying, they were even more struck with panic and dismay.
Aside from being a major, Xia Luoying was also General Xia Chuli's son. With him dead here, General Xia would likely fly into a thunderous rage!
And what was even more fatal was that Granny Minjiang was nowhere to be found!
This was the staple food of the Thirteen Noble Families!
Capturing Granny Minjiang could allow the Thirteen Noble Families to eat for many days!
Losing Granny Minjiang, those lords would likely fly into a thunderous rage, and many people would die!
After a moment, the guerrilla general, garrison commander, lieutenants, and others hurried to the spot. Most of them were people from the Xia family. Seeing Xia Luoying's corpse on the ground, they couldn't help flying into a furious rage. "Who did this?"
No one made a sound.
The assistant magistrate, senior administrative judge, and records officials
