Chapter 6

"It's a little troublesome." Gu Sheng sighed, he didn't expect to be targeted so soon.

I don't know if it's because I bought a lot of things to reveal my wealth, or because of Yan Ruyu.

Or both.

Now that everyone has been killed, the question is how to deal with it.

There is a rule in the law that if a robber enters a house at night, he will not be guilty of killing him.

It is equivalent to the legitimate defense of this world.

If you report to the official, you are theoretically innocent, but...

Everything is afraid of "but".

One is that there is a gang behind these two people, the Medicine Gang. In the past, some herb collectors gathered together to help each other, but later it changed and recruited a lot of rogues on the street.

They usually collect protection fees from several streets, and at the same time control the prices of medicinal materials in Qingyang County.

If it is reported to the official, the medicine gang will probably retaliate afterwards, and maybe something will happen again.

In addition, the local county magistrate is also a dog who scratches the ground. If someone pays, it is not impossible to reverse black and white.

"My lord, I will bandage you." Yan Ruyu came in with some emerald green gauze, and she cut off the gauze that covered her face during the day.

Gu Sheng looked at it, and said: "Go and get the needle, pull out some thin threads, boil them in boiling water for a while, and then sew up the wound with needles and threads."

When Yan Ruyu went to work, Gu Sheng continued to ponder.

Since it's not good to report to the official, let's deal with these two corpses.

The noise made last night was not too loud. In the two courtyards next door, one house was occupied by an old man with severe deafness, and the other house was empty.

Generally, if you are eyeing a fat sheep, you will not tell others, let alone make it known to everyone, and there is a high probability that only these two people will know.

After the corpse was disposed of, no one knew it.

But this place can't be lived, the surrounding law and order is too chaotic, if someone stares at him once, he can have a second time.

Rent a yard in the north of the city to live in for a few months, and leave Qingyang County after finishing reading the books in the bookstore.

There are eight workshops in Qingyang County, the lower eight workshops are in the south of the city, and the upper eight workshops are in the north of the city. The security in the north of the city is much better than that in the south of the city.

Gu Sheng had an idea in his mind, and looked at the corpse on the ground a few more times, feeling that he was still pretty awesome.

Unflappable in times of crisis, he made decisive moves, and he didn't feel any discomfort after seeing blood.

In a while, I will come again and read the Spring and Autumn Annals while sewing up the wound!
Gu Sheng felt a little complacent, and inadvertently glanced out the window, and suddenly he was shocked, his whole body was icy cold.

I saw a pair of green eyes looking at me on the courtyard wall.

"Meow--"

A cat wagged its tail, turned and jumped off the wall, and Gu Sheng heaved a sigh of relief.

"Huh, you scared me to death."

My heart almost stopped just now.

Looking at the broken window, Gu Sheng lowered his head and picked up the murder weapon brought by the two, and sent it to another room together with the axe.

Two wrought iron short knives, a little bigger than a dagger, are okay for hacking and stabbing, but they are not worth much.

Then he picked up the oil lamp and took the book.

"Young master, the threads are all cooked, do you really want to sew?"

"Sew!"

"Hiss—" Gu Sheng's face twitched.

……

After the wound was sewn up, Gu Sheng leaned on the couch, Yan Ruyu finished his treatment, and then lay there without defense at all.

Gu Sheng's fingers just touched her hair.

But he didn't have the heart to think about anything else, the stitches were really painful, and he fell asleep on the bed in a daze.

The cock crowed next door, Gu Sheng suddenly opened his eyes, put on his shoes and went to the ground.

"Master?" Yan Ruyu was startled and asked, rubbing her eyes.

"Bury those two guys." Gu Sheng said.

"That slave will help you dig the soil." Yan Ruyu also got off the couch and ran out to find a hoe and a shovel.

"Start digging from here." Gu Sheng didn't dare to exert any strength on his arm, so he had to leave it to Yan Ruyu.

Gu Sheng found that Yan Ruyu's strength was not weak. At first, she was a bit awkward with the hoe, but after a while, she quickly got up and dug a 1.5-meter-long, half-meter-wide, and 1.5-meter-deep pit.

"My lord, the digging is finished." Yan Ruyu looked up from the pit, only to see that her hair was sticking to her cheeks, her forehead was covered with sweat, and her body was also dirty.

Gu Sheng went into the room and dragged the two of them out, turned over, and the two of them didn't even have a piece of silver, just a few silver beans, adding up to six or seven coins.

The corpse was pushed in, filled with soil, and the ground was made into a ridge, and the excess soil was evenly sprinkled on other places.

After the two of them were out of breath, Gu Sheng nodded in satisfaction.

"Perfect!"

"Young master, I'm going to cook." Yan Ruyu raised her sleeves and wiped the sweat from her forehead, her face was blushing.

"Forget it, I'll go buy some, you can rest for a while." Gu Sheng grabbed her palm and looked at it, there were already blisters, and one was even worn out.

This hand looks like white jade, it is not for work at all.

"Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt!" Yan Ruyu raised her face and smiled.

"You deal with it first, I'll go buy something to eat." Gu Sheng pinched her face.

"Ah!" Yan Ruyu was a little startled, but she didn't dodge. Instead, she took half a step forward to help Gu Sheng straighten her hair, with a faint smile on her face.

Whether it's killing people or burying corpses, it seems that it's not worth paying attention to her.

On the contrary, Gu Sheng's attitude towards her changed slightly, and she was very happy.

Gu Sheng changed clothes and took some money to go out.

Just after exiting the alley, I saw a lot of people blocking the entrance of another alley.

"He died again... a family of five, none of them survived."

"It's a crime, is there anything the yamen can do?"

"What can the yamen do? Even the yamen servants have died, and the yamen servants dare not go to the streets at night."

"Why don't you eat the magistrate?"

"Shh, do you want to die?"

When Gu Sheng came closer and heard those whispered discussions, he frowned.

The distance was too short, the straight line was less than [-] meters away, and the entire family of four was eaten.

Maybe that cat-faced monster passed by my house last night...

Thinking about it this way, Gu Sheng's whole body is not well.

Moreover, Gu Sheng also saw that cat-faced monster when he came home before, so he was frightened to death, causing him to time travel.

It means that the other party often moves around here.

Before, I thought to wait for two days, and wait until the rumors of the two people's disappearance passed before moving, otherwise it would be easy to be noticed.

He has changed his mind now and moved right away.

Excuses are readily available.

"Gu Xianggong, are you leaving the knives stall?" Someone next to him patted him, it was a guy from a nearby grain shop.

He also took care of his own business.

"No, how can I think about it now? I'm going to live in another place for a while, and come back after catching the cat demon." Gu Sheng's worried expression was not fake.

"Alright, this is too scary." The guy also looked worried.

Gu Sheng stood outside the crowd and listened for a while before leaving, and went to the street to buy a few steamed buns.

While paying attention to the surroundings along the way, I saw a rogue from the medicine gang, squatting on the side of the road and staring at the older girls and daughter-in-laws passing by, and saw nothing strange about himself.

Gu Sheng immediately felt relieved.

……

When they returned, Yan Ruyu was cleaning up the blood, cleaning the ground and walls, and scraping down with a short knife if it couldn't be cleaned off.

A woman who looked sixteen or seventeen years old and had a charming face was destroying corpses there, with clear eyes and a gentle expression.

Gu Sheng always felt that it looked a little strange.

The two of us are like male and female thieves, or the sense of sight of a husband and wife team that runs a human meat barbecue restaurant.

But it doesn't feel bad.

Gu Sheng greeted:
"eat first."

"After cleaning up in a while, go out with me." Gu Sheng thought for a while while eating the buns.

"Okay!" Yan Ruyu showed a big smile, and soon became worried again. "Young master, the clothes on your body are dirty and haven't been washed yet..."

"Put on my old clothes first, and remember to cover your face." Gu Sheng said.

At this time there were garment shops, but in a county with only a few thousand households, there was no market at all. The common people bought cloth and made it themselves, and those who had money went to tailors.

Therefore, the clothing store has become a place to sell second-hand clothes, and Gu Sheng has no plans to buy second-hand clothes.

"Okay." Yan Ruyu smiled happily again.

After eating and waiting for a while, Yan Ruyu appeared in front of him wearing a washed-up white old clothes, covered her face with a piece of cloth cut from the old clothes, and tied her hair in a man's style.

Turning around in front of Gu Sheng: "My lord, isn't it ugly?"

Gu Sheng took a closer look, the pectoralis major was too exaggerated, one could tell it was a woman disguised as a man, and it looked strange with a cloth covering her face, but it was not as conspicuous as yesterday.

"It's pretty good, the clothes depend on who wears them." Gu Sheng nodded and said.

Yan Ruyu's eyes curled up.
