Chapter 367
Although this was the case, the workers did not leave. Under the leadership of Seventh Elder Brother, together with the villagers, they piled all the corpses of the dead barbarians to one side.
For the one shot dead by He Zhiran's crossbow arrow, Mo Chuhan was very concerned. After all, his identity was suspicious. It would be great if they could find some clues from him.
Seventh Elder Brother was no stranger to searching matters. In the past when fighting wars, after capturing the enemy general, there would also be such an operation. First he searched the body of the barbarian commander.
Apart from a token that looked rather special, there was also a small porcelain bottle that seemed to contain gu worms.
Seventh Elder Brother did not dare mess with the small porcelain bottle. He was afraid that something bad would happen if he was not careful, so he would wait for Ninth Younger Sister-in-Law to come and decide.
He kept the small porcelain bottle and then took the token to observe it carefully. Reêad latest novels at novelhall.com
He always felt that he had seen this token somewhere before, but could not remember where for the moment.
Just when he was annoyed, two people suddenly appeared before him out of thin air.
The arrivals were precisely Mo Chuhan and Meng Huaining.
Mo Chuhan knew the urgency of the matter. He did not ride a horse into the city at all, but raised his qinggong skill to the fastest speed.
On his return as well, Meng Huaining also understood martial arts. They were both clear that their qinggong was much faster than riding a horse, so they both displayed qinggong to rush back.
As for those yamen runners, they had already been left far behind by them.
When Seventh Elder Brother saw the two of them, he hurriedly displayed the token that had troubled him for so long.
"It's good that you're here. Take a quick look at this token and see if you have any impression of it?"
When Mo Chuhan saw the token, he also frowned slightly.
"Seventh Elder Brother, what is this?"
Seventh Elder Brother pointed his lips at the corpse of the commander on the ground: "It was searched from him."
Mo Chuhan took the token and flipped it around before returning it to Seventh Elder Brother.
"I've never seen this thing before."
Meng Huaining also took a peek and did not recognize it either.
Although they did not recognize it, he was more observant than the Mo brothers.
"Seventh Elder Brother, Eighth Elder Brother, look, the veins on this token look a bit strange, it looks a bit like a mandala leaf."
After Meng Huaining's reminder, the two brothers also discovered it.
What he meant by writing a memorial was that he would write a letter to Fei Nanyu.
Although he did not have much contact with Fei Nanyu, he could feel that they belonged in the same circle.
Especially since Fei Nanyu had helped him a lot with the plague incident. He was able to come to Yucheng to take office instead of being stripped of his official position. These were all Fei Nanyu's contributions.
No matter from which point of consideration, he would choose to notify Fei Nanyu of the news.
Of course, the Mo brothers would not care who Meng Huaining would report this matter to. What they needed to resolve now was the issue of what to do with these barbarians, as well as to put the defense of their Xiling Village homes on the agenda.
Whether it was the barbarians or Nanjiang people, what they feared was his Mo family.
Even though they did not intend to work for the court anymore, those outsiders were not clear about their thoughts.
Therefore, it was very necessary for the Mo family to be more vigilant from now on. The top priority was to protect themselves.
Seventh Elder Brother looked at those barbarians with pitiful looks on their faces and asked Meng Huaining.
"Brother Meng, how do you plan to deal with these people?"
On the way here, Mo Chuhan had already told Meng Huaining about the general situation of what had happened here.
He knew clearly that the barbarians captured by the Mo brothers were all commoners.
At the same time, he also knew that the barbarians did have hard lives. It could be determined from their emaciated appearances that they must have been starving badly.
The pitiful had something to be hated for. Meng Huaining did not sympathize with them, but felt that if things continued like this, it would be difficult to guarantee the safety of Yucheng's commoners.
Just as he was thinking about how to handle it, the treatment of the wounded on He Zhiran's side was nearing completion. She was being supported by a somewhat uneasy Eighth Sister-in-law as she walked over here.
"Brother Meng, Seventh Elder Brother, Eighth Elder Brother, how has the situation been handled?" He Zhiran asked.
A style had been formed in the Mo family now, which was to look upon Mo Jiuye and his wife as leaders.
When Mo Jiuye was at home, whether for big or small matters, they would go to discuss it with them.
Therefore, when they saw He Zhiran ask, they recounted what they had learned about the situation in every detail.
When He Zhiran heard that she had killed the most critical figure, she felt somewhat regretful in her heart.
In her anxiousness just now, there was nothing she could do.
Seeing that she did not respond for a long time, Seventh Elder Brother hurriedly took out the small porcelain bottle.
"Ninth Younger Sister-in-Law, take a look. This is what was found on that man. I suspect there are gu worms inside. I didn't dare open it rashly."
