~3 min read 427 words

At this time, the sky was already bright.

Almost everyone in the camp had already gotten up.

But Wang Rou was still lying beside the campfire that had turned into ashes.

His expression was very peaceful, but his face was snow-white, without a trace of blood.

On his chest, a delicate dagger was inserted.

Wang Rou's two hands were gripping the dagger tightly.

Beside Wang Rou, his younger brother Wang Ze was already scared silly.

Last night, the two of them were sleeping together.

But Wang Ze didn't even know when Wang Rou died.

Duan Yu looked down at Wang Ze's corpse.

To be able to personally insert a dagger into one's own chest without making a sound, and without even startling his younger brother Wang Ze beside him.

It can be seen that Wang Rou was ruthless enough in his actions.

And seeing Wang Rou's corpse, Duan Yu also understood what the explanation Wang Rou had spoken of last night was.

Suicide.

A dead person will not speak again.

Dead, he would not speak of the conversation the two had last night.

Coming to Wang Rou's corpse, Duan Yu reached out and grasped the dagger of Wang Rou, prying his hands open.

In Wang Rou's palm, there was a tattered piece of silk.

Without looking, Duan Yu knew what was recorded on it, so he tucked it into his bosom.

"Collect his corpse and prepare to set off."

Duan Yu stood up.

Wang Rou said something after he left last night.

He said that the hardest thing to escape in this life is the guilt in one's heart.

Wang Rou was gambling.

Gambling on the guilt in his heart.

Wang Rou left behind the wealth he had accumulated in his life, just to exchange for a trace of bloodline inheritance for the Wang clan.

If he accepted this wealth without fulfilling his promise, he would bear the guilt in his heart.

"Did Wang Rou say anything else to you last night?"

Before leaving, Duan Yu glanced at Wang Ze behind him.

Wang Ze nodded in terror and said: "Elder brother... elder brother said, said that after I arrive in Luoyang, I should testify... testify that Wang Gai, it was Wang Gai who tipped us off."

Duan Yu nodded, then turned and left.

Taiyuan Commandery, Jinyang.

Time passed in a flash, and several more days had passed.

From the time Duan Yu left Jinyang, half a month had already passed.

During this half month, the entire Jinyang was shrouded in a low atmosphere. ===== CHAPTER 273 =====
