Eternal traitor

Chapter 208 Skeleton
In the middle of the night, a carriage without any markings left the city gate overnight. The guards guarding the city paled as if they had seen a ghost. Logically speaking, they were not allowed to open the city gate at night, but now the guards guarding the city came out. Unexpectedly, he did not block it, but made an exception and released it.

Walking on the muddy road, the carriage made a creaking sound, but the carriage is a hidden high-end carriage with springs installed. The shock absorption function is comparable to that of a first-class and second-class top-level carriage. I didn’t feel it all the way. to too much jitter.

After driving for a distance of hundreds of feet, the carriage stopped on the dilapidated official road, and the carriage stopped. The coachman just waited quietly on it without saying a word.

"Reached?"

A majestic voice came from the carriage, but no emotion could be heard from the voice.

"arrive."

The coachman took off the straw hat on his head, revealing a helpless face. Isn't this person Qin Wudi?
"It's cold enough at night."

Sitting in the carriage, feeling his somewhat chilly palms, King Qin slowly opened the curtain in front of him and stood on the carriage. King Qin looked into the distance under the bright moonlight, and his face was a little unbelievable. His expression was also a little more angry.

With a height of 1.8 meters and the height of the carriage one meter, King Qin can even see objects 700 meters away. However, not far from him, to be exact, around the carriage, there is a corpse.

The only feeling this corpse gives is...thin.

The emaciated corpse was as ferocious as a ghost, only the right hand of the white bones was stretched out in the air, as if trying to grab something. This corpse had no shirt, but only a piece of rag that barely covered the body, and several ribs were tight. Sticking to the skin, the bones of the legs were exposed in front of the two of them. It was obvious that this person had starved to death.Moreover, it took no more than two days to die.

Ten meters away from this corpse, there were more than a dozen corpses piled together. The hill formed by these corpses was so permeable at night.

Looking towards the south from the official road, dozens of black shadows huddled together to warm each other, under the trees, on the trees, and in the open space, the dark refugees were shivering in the cold night, and there were occasional waves among the refugees. The coughing sounds of "cough cough" came one after another.

"This...is this a refugee??"

Qin Wang's body seemed to have lost his strength and fell backwards, if Qin Wudi who was beside him had not noticed it and hugged him.Otherwise, it will be a hard fall.

"Hey············"

Qin Wudi sighed and didn't say much.The facts in front of me are worth a thousand words. Now he is the right-hand man of the King of Qin, handling major cases every day, but now the refugees shivering in the cold night are like the enemy's long knives, slashing at them one by one .These are their people, the people of Qin who trusted them one by one, managed to get to the capital of King Qin, but they got such a result.

"Fu Gu stepped forward."

Qin Wang felt that he had lost his strength, and his weak legs could not move.He thought that under his own governance, the people settled down, the refugees were settled, everyone was happy, and the people of other countries were envious of the people of Qin, but in the end? ?
The refugees were disheveled, skinny, sleeping on the cold ground waiting for death.

"My lord, you go among the refugees, the old slave is afraid."

Although there are only two people here at this time, there are several dragon guards hidden behind them, but there are many refugees, and he is also afraid that if the refugees go crazy and attack them, wouldn't it put King Qin in danger? ?
"Go forward."

King Qin seemed to have recovered a little bit, he stepped forward and shouted while gritting his teeth.This cry was the grief and indignation in his heart. He was ashamed of the group of Qin people who believed in him.He wanted to see how miserable these refugees were enduring?How sad.

"According to the order."

Qin Wudi helplessly supported Qin Dynasty and walked over to the outermost and only pair of refugees.After all, there are fewer refugees, and King Qin is safer.

Lying on the ground at this time is a pair of mother and child. The woman looks skinny and skinny. The child's body is covered with a pile of withered yellow leaves. The mother was just wearing thin clothes, hugging her child in the cold wind and waiting for the dawn.

"Excuse me late at night, I have a few words to ask you guys."

When he came to the mother and son, Qin Wudi asked the mother and son with a guilty heart. After all, they are so pitiful, and it would be too much for him to disturb them.

"Hoohoo..."

The icy cold wind blew gently, but the child lying among the dead leaves and the woman didn't show any intention of getting up.The tightly closed eyes did not open even the slightest gap.

"It's so disturbing, I'll leave now."

Qin Wudi seemed to realize that the two were gone, so he hurriedly pulled King Qin to leave.At this time, the wind was even stronger.

The withered and yellow fallen leaves danced unscrupulously in the wind, and the fallen leaves wrapped around the child flew away slowly. King Qin, who had already left, looked distressedly at the mother and child who refused to speak behind him again.However, after he turned his head, the picture was frozen at this moment in an instant.

"Master??"

Pulling Qin Wang who refused to leave, Qin Wudi slowly turned his head.After the dead leaves were blown away by the strong wind, a terrifying picture appeared in front of the two of them. A woman gently hugged the child's head and fell asleep, looking very peaceful.However, this child... has only the head left.

This boy who looked less than five years old was lying flat on the ground at this time. There was no body under the head, and there were only a few scary skeletons. Judging from the shape and size of the bones, it was indeed this child, but... ······What about the child's body? ?Why is there only such a pile of bones left? ?

What about this woman? ?Also dead? ?
"Then... that child, why?? Why... did it become like this??"

King Qin's voice trembled slightly, and the child's corpse was understandable. People often starved to death, but why did this child only have such a skeleton? ?
Qin Wudi's complexion was abnormally ugly. Facing King Qin's questioning, a terrible idea appeared in his mind. He looked at the corpse in the distance, and then at King Qin in front of him. Qin Wudi opened his mouth a little bit. The mouth whispered: "Maybe... was eaten."
