Forced to marry, I picked up a young powerful official

Chapter 262 How to Kill Innocent People

If you want to put on a show, you have to do it fully.

Although Aunt Geng was a good person, the Geng family's reputation in the town had long been ruined because of Geng Jin. Taoyuan Town had just been attacked by bandits not long ago, and the villagers hated Geng Jin to the core. If the funeral was too grand, it would seem like a trap. Only a deserted and sad funeral like today's would be more realistic.

As for whether Geng Jin will appear and when he will appear, no one can guarantee it.

We can only make every detail realistic, that is to say, today's funeral is tailor-made for Geng Jin alone.

As for Jian Ying, Shen Nankui originally did not agree to let her deal with Geng Jin alone, but she said that everyone in the town kept their distance from Aunt Geng, and only she had received Aunt Geng's favor, so she would be the most trustworthy to Geng Jin if she came forward to handle the funeral. Besides, Geng Jin might have heard her voice, and even if she could find someone to impersonate her, if she was exposed, everything would be in vain.

So, she was willing to do it herself.

She also said that although Geng Jin was an unforgivable criminal, he was still somewhat filial, and if she helped him to show his filial piety, he should not hurt anyone.

Her analysis made sense, and after Shen Nankui thought about it, he agreed to her proposal.

Gu Yichuang and his men set up ambushes far along the funeral route, waiting for Geng Jin to appear so that they could immediately surround and capture him from all sides. As expected, they succeeded.

Geng Jin figured it all out and his face instantly became extremely ugly.

"You...actually took advantage of my mother's death?"

Gu Yichuan didn't answer him, but only asked: "Where is the base of Feiying Village? Why don't you tell the truth?"

Geng Jin was silent for a moment, then suddenly revealed a strange smile, "So what if you arrest me? If I am not back by the beginning of the evening, the boss will leave immediately."

It is now shortly after the Wei hour and there are less than two hours left until the You hour.

Gu Yichuan glanced at him and suddenly said, "I know your rules. If you fail to return on time, your boss will lead the people to evacuate, and you who have been arrested don't have to worry. Even if our headquarters is unable to rescue you, we will find a way to avenge you."

He looked down at Geng Jin with a chill in his eyes.

"When you laughed just now, were you thinking that even if you were caught by the government, as long as the Flying Eagle Village was still there, they would be able to avenge you. As for where to vent this hatred, you didn't care. All you wanted to see was killing. You wanted more innocent people to be buried with you, right?"

Geng Jin smiled cruelly, "That's right! So what? Anyway, I will never tell you what you want to know."

He struggled a few times, but was restrained even tighter.

"Are you the governor of Yongzhou?"

He looked Gu Yichuan up and down, then smiled indifferently, "You look quite young. It's impressive that you can be a state lord at this age, but that's all. If a large number of people are killed or injured under your rule, can you continue to work safely as a state lord?"

Gu Yichuan had served in the Western Army and had witnessed brutal killings, but at this moment, he couldn't help but be shocked by his viciousness.

His eyes turned completely cold. "Geng Jin, my patience is limited. If you don't tell the truth, your mother will die."

Geng Jin's face froze, as if he didn't understand what he meant.

He looked at the grave, then at Gu Yichuan, his expression of disbelief mixed with a hint of joy, "Yes, you are just playing a trick on me today, my mother may not be dead!"

He laughed twice and suddenly stopped, looking at Gu Yichuan with suspicion, "Wait, if you can't let me see my mother with my own eyes, I will never believe your words."

"You want to see your mother, but your mother may not be willing to see you."

Shen Nankui's voice came over.

She and Jian Ying helped Aunt Geng approach. In just a few days, Aunt Geng's hair had turned completely white, and the wrinkles on her face were as deep as ravines. Her whole face looked old and tired, without a trace of life.

She looked at Geng Jin, but it was as if she saw something dirty. She spat and cursed, "Evil creature."

Then she turned her head away and stopped looking at him.

Geng Jin's eyes were filled with tears, and he didn't know whether it was sadness or joy.

He looked up at Gu Yichuan, "What do you mean by what you said just now? Do you want to use my mother to force me to submit?"

He sneered twice, "You must be lying to me. As an official, how can you kill innocent people?"

Gu Yichuan looked at the new tombstone and said, "Yes, your mother is innocent, but she is already dead, isn't she? I just made a person who pretended to be dead really dead. Who would know? They would only say that it was you who angered your mother to death."

Geng Jin was stunned, a hint of panic flashing in his eyes.

"This is impossible!"

But he couldn't help but believe it.

Aunt Geng suddenly raised her arm, revealing a pair of scissors hidden on her wrist, and put it against her neck.

She shouted, "I have committed a grave sin for raising such an evil creature. I have no face to live on. You don't need me to do anything. I will do it myself!"

Geng Jin felt like he was struck by lightning and shouted, "Mom, don't!"

Aunt Geng looked at him coldly, "You evil creature, if you still don't repent, today I will let you see with your own eyes how you forced your mother to death. It just so happens that there are coffins and graveyards here, and you can even give me a ride!"

"Mom, why do you have to do this? They were the ones who wronged me first!"

But Aunt Geng didn't want to look at him any more.

Geng Jin felt as if he had been severely beaten and his internal organs were aching. He could see that his mother was really determined to die, but did these people really want to watch an innocent person being forced to death?

He looked around, and everyone's eyes were cold, even a little murderous. So much time had passed, and no one tried to stop his mother. This time it didn't seem like a show.

They really can do it.

Geng Jin sighed and smiled with tears in his eyes, "Mom, I am an unfilial son. I am destined to make you send off your son before you. Please put away the scissors. I will do whatever you say."

Aunt Geng didn't move.

Geng Jin looked sad and said slowly, "The base is in the back mountain thirty miles west of Taoyuan Town. There are sentries within a five-mile radius, and we communicate with each other using secret codes. If you want to launch a surprise attack, I'm afraid you won't be able to capture them all. It's better to let me go. My mother is in your hands, and I am willing to obey your orders."

Gu Yichuan said: "You don't need to worry too much about how the government acts. You just need to tell them everything you know. How strong is Feiying Village, where are the sentry points, what is the contact code, and what are the transfer routes?"

Geng Jin did not resist this time and told him everything.

It was getting late. Even if one rode a fast horse, it would take an hour to travel the thirty miles. Gu Yichuan immediately deployed his troops and prepared to lead them to suppress the bandits personally.

Geng Jin watched his actions silently, thinking that this state master was indeed still young. If he just led a large group of troops to attack like this, unless he could surround the entire mountain tightly, with the boss's ability, he would definitely find a way to escape.

But when the anti-bandit team was about to set out, he was surprised to find that "himself" actually walked out from the officer's side?
