"": "You four, tell me exactly what happened, down to the last detail!"
Then Zhong Zhicheng turned to the four men kneeling on the ground. They were in a wretched state, the stench of urine mingling with the bloody reek of the corpse beside the well, pungent and foul.
But what foul smell in Cabinet Mountain Village had he not encountered before?
Zhong Zhicheng's expression therefore remained unchanged, his gaze still as sharp as a blade.
The crowd outside the courtyard was pushed aside.
The Able-Bodied Team squeezed through.
At their head, of course, was Luo Feng!
Luo Feng had originally gathered the men to head to the Logging Grounds, but the whole village was stirring, everyone moving toward the village entrance. His instincts told him something had changed!
So he had followed.
He saw the people outside You Jiang's House.
As he pushed through the crowd, he happened to hear Yu Mingxin's crazed words and Gu Ya's questioning.
When he was the first to step through the courtyard gate, he happened to see Zhong Zhicheng questioning the four men kneeling on the ground.
But he only caught all that out of the corner of his eye.
His attention was on Gu Ya, who was barely standing with her son's support.
Gu Ya was in a terrible state. Both her hands were mangled and bloody, and even her fingernails were gone.
His eyes reddened further. He strode to Gu Ya's side and gathered her into his arms.
At last, Gu Ya could no longer remain standing.
She had stayed on her feet before because sheer determination had sustained her. I can't collapse weakly into my son's arms, can I? I'm still his mother. I have to be strong. I can't make this even harder for him.
