Chapter 417 Joined Duanmuhuo

Xue Kang's eyes widened in horror. Was he caught? Was he going to die too?

Yingyi quickly found an uninhabited house and brought Xue Kang in.

The men immediately took up advantageous positions and observed the surroundings to prevent any accidents from happening.

Xue Kang was so frightened that tears started streaming down his face, and no matter how hard he struggled he couldn't break free.

His parents were dead, and the servants in the mansion were either killed or escaped. He had barely managed to survive. Now... unexpectedly...

Ying Yi looked at the child in front of him and whispered, "Don't make noise or shout. We are not bad people. If you agree, we will let you go."

Xue Kang looked at the masked man in front of him. For some reason, he felt that he was not a bad person.

He nodded, his body shaking slightly with fear.

Ying Yi gestured to his men, who immediately let go of his hand, and Xue Kang was free.

He looked at these people nervously and whispered, "You...are not Simon people?"

Yingyi nodded slightly, "We are from Daqing, subordinates of the Regent."

Xue Kang's eyes widened when he heard this. He seemed to be totally in disbelief, and his voice unconsciously became louder. "Regent? God of War?"

Yingyi frowned slightly and immediately looked outside. Seeing that there was no movement, he felt a little relieved.

Xue Kang also knew that he was too excited, and said in a low voice with an apologetic look on his face, "I'm sorry."

Ying nodded. "Are you from Xueling Town? Why are you still staying outside at this hour?"

Speaking of this, Xue Kang's eyes instantly turned red. "My last name is Xue and my name is Kang. I'm from Xueling Town. My father is Xue Yuanwai, the richest man in Xueling Town. Now..." Xue Kang's tears flowed all of a sudden, "My parents died at the hands of the Simon people, that Duanmu Huo. He said that my house was barely worthy of his attention, so he killed my parents and seized our house. I... I escaped with great difficulty. Now... now... I don't know where to go."

Ying thought of the place where Duanmu Huo lived now. On the gate of the mansion, the words "Xue Mansion" seemed to be written.

Ying Yi didn't know how to comfort people. He watched the child cry for a while before continuing to ask, "How much do you know about the situation in Xueling Town? Are you willing to tell us?"

Xue Kang wiped his eyes. "Are you really the regent's men? Are you... the Black Armor Army?"

Ying raised an eyebrow. He didn't expect that the kid was so knowledgeable and even knew about the Black Armor Army.

"We are indeed the Black Armored Army under the prince. The prince is already on his way, so we came here first to find out the situation."

Xue Kang was overjoyed. "The Regent is coming? Are you really the Black Armor Army? I heard from the storyteller in the teahouse that the stability of Daqing for so many years is all due to the undefeated god of war. The Regent has an invincible army, the Black Armor Army. I didn't expect that you really came."

Yingyi's men looked at each other. The storyteller made them sound so legendary?

As if he was afraid that they were lying, Xue Kang quickly restrained his expression and said, "You said you are the Black Armor Army, what evidence do you have?"

Ying Yi raised the corners of his lips and shook his head with a bit of amusement. It was a bit late to doubt now, didn't he think? However, he still took out a token from his waist and handed it to him, "This is the token of our Black Armor Army, and the number of the Regent is on the back."

Xue Kang came from a wealthy family, so he could read. He took the token and looked at it. It was a black token, and he didn't know what it was made of. But on the back of the token was written the word "Chen". Xue Kang's hands were shaking with excitement, "It really is the Regent."

Ying Yi's men secretly rolled their eyes again. This kid is so easy to fool. Fortunately, they are real. If they met someone else, they would probably be dead. But think about it, it doesn't make sense, after all, he is still a child.

"So Xue Kang, can you tell us the situation here now?"

Xue Kang hurriedly returned the token in his hand, "Actually... Actually, I don't know much. About seven days ago, I was still in school. Without any warning, the Simons attacked. The soldiers in the town were no match at all and had no power to fight back. The town was soon controlled by the Simons. At the beginning, they killed some soldiers and civilians who resisted, and looted the gold, silver and food in the town. Our Xue Mansion is the largest house in the town, so... it was favored by Duanmu Huo. And then..."

Xue Kang couldn't help crying again, "My parents were killed by them, and the servants all fled. I escaped because I hid in the cellar. Later, I climbed over the wall and escaped when the Simon soldiers were not paying attention."

I saw him rubbing his leg unconsciously. I guess he fell when he was climbing over the wall.

"The Simon soldiers killed some of the people who resisted, and even hung a few bodies on the city wall. They said that if anyone else resisted, they would suffer the same fate as them. They also said that as long as we stayed at home quietly, they would not kill us. But they asked us to send out the food and gold and silver on our own initiative. If their soldiers found them, we would be killed."

Yingyi frowned, feeling a little strange. According to the nature of the Simon people, it was impossible for them to be so easy to talk to. Not to mention massacring Xueling Town, but they would definitely not be so kind.

"Is it true that as long as you obey them, they won't kill people?"

"It's only been like this in the past three or four days. At the beginning, they also killed a lot of people. But the bodies were not hung on the city wall, but thrown to the Xichuan River. It should be five days ago that the county magistrate of Xueling Town found Duanmu Huo and said something, and he stopped killing so many people."

"County magistrate?" Ying Yi's eyes flickered. "What ability do you have as a county magistrate to stop Duanmu Huo from killing people indiscriminately?"

Xue Kang shook his head, "I don't know either, but everyone says that the county magistrate has betrayed his country and defected to Duanmu Huo."

"Everyone says?" Ying Yi is very good at grasping words, "Why everyone says? Don't you think the county magistrate is a traitor?"

Xue Kang pursed his lips, a little hesitant, "I think the county magistrate is a good person."

"Why?"

"Actually, the day I escaped, the county magistrate saw me, but he didn't report me. He even covered for me, so I was able to escape so smoothly."

"that is it?"

"Not only that, my husband is a good friend of the county magistrate. He once said that the county magistrate is a good official who loves the people like his own children. Over the years, he has always been conscientious and has served the people sincerely. The people of Xueling Town all know it. Moreover, he has no airs at all and is very kind. This time..." Xue Kang frowned, very puzzled, "I don't know why this happened."

"What about the other people in the government office?"

Xue Kang shook his head. "I don't know. At first they followed the county magistrate, but were all captured by Duanmu Huo's men. But later, it seemed that only the county magistrate went to Duanmu Huo. The others... I guess they are dead."
