How did he know?!
The five stray soldiers who were singled out were all dumbfounded.
There were fourteen roaming soldiers causing trouble, and it was impossible for them all to be unaware of the situation.
Looking back now, Zi Yi recalls hearing five or six different shouts as soon as the chaos began.
The number of people who have been dragged out now is not much different from the number of people who have been pulled out!
York and Kahn, who were separated and placed to one side, have been identified as the ringleaders of the disturbance.
I wonder who among these people will be the ones to cause trouble...
If he had followed his usual methods, he probably would have killed all of them.
We can follow what our teacher said—
Now that we have the ability to distinguish right from wrong, let's not let any bad person get away with it, nor wrong any good person.
"The good person who is rescued is usually more loyal than ever before."
Zi Yi's gaze swept over the five people in front of him.
"You have one more chance to tell the truth. Seize it. I can tell whose words are lies."
After saying that, without caring what the five people thought, he untied the vines that gagged them one by one and asked them to speak in turn.
"I don't want to betray them! But I'm so tired from working all night! I don't even know if I'll have a new place to live! Waaah—"
The grown man choked up as he spoke.
And that's how the only guy who truly didn't want to betray them was found.
The remaining four, though not the planners, responded to York and Kahn's shouts.
They just didn't expect the two to move so quickly.
Zi Yi is indeed not mistaken.
It started with six people causing trouble.
Hearing the rogue soldiers' speech, the people could no longer hold back.
"Are these people idiots?"
"Although the adults called them slaves, they never gave them slave food..."
"That's right, they all ate with us..."
"It would be better to use it to feed pigs..."
Many of the wandering soldiers on the stage closed their eyes upon hearing this.
Their words were mainly answers and explanations, without focusing on explaining what happened.
But the people and their tribesmen had already pieced together the truth in their hearts.
g——
As Zi Yi drew his sword, the audience fell silent instantly.
They all looked at Ziyi.
Zi Yi delivered the verdict.
"York, Kahn. Those two deliberately spread lies to cause panic! Kill them!"
"Ugh!" *2
The two seemed to still want to make a struggle after hearing the verdict.
Ke Ziyi had already drawn the iron sword in his hand.
Two plumes of blood mist shot out one after the other, creating brief, small shadows in the firelight.
"kill!"
"Bad thing!"
"Donkey grass!"
"A bad seed born of a sheep!"
"Lazybones!"
The cries of the people were no longer as fervent as before, but they still carried anger.
The shouts echoed through the darkness along with the firelight, startling the birds in the surrounding woods into taking flight with a whoosh.
They've only been eating well for a few days!
Why would anyone want the Talis family to return as lords?!
Or is it just to avoid doing work?
That's terrible!
After killing the two men, Zi Yi looked up at his subjects.
"call--"
It's impossible not to be excited.
But deep down he was still somewhat disappointed.
This meant he could no longer experience that dizzy feeling he had last time.
With a sigh of relief, Zi Yi walked over to the five people.
He bent down and pulled away the wandering soldier who had lied but had no real intention of rebelling.
When the people saw his actions, they understood what was happening and quietly fell silent.
"Ugh! Ugh!"
The four stray soldiers who were left behind were still trying to struggle.
But how could one possibly break free?
"You four! Knowing it was a lie, you still willingly participated in the rebellion! Kill!"
He hadn't even remembered the names of the four people.
With four sword strikes, four plumes of blood mist sprayed out in succession, and the head fell to the ground.
"Well done!"
"Ungrateful wretch!"
The people cried out again.
Zi Yi looked at them, but took the opportunity to take a deep breath.
"call--"
The iron swords used by humans are still too heavy for goblins.
Four consecutive swings made him feel tired.
He took a short break amidst the cheers from the audience.
Once the surroundings gradually quieted down, Zi Yi put down the iron sword and picked up the spear again.
If you're looking for directions, a spear is still the best tool.
He pointed his spear at the audience.
Those were the people who huddled in the town and the fortress after the chaos broke out.
After removing the clansmen, there aren't many people left here.
There were only about a hundred people.
"All of you, stand up! And the soldiers who just went out to lead the people back!"
The people below the stage were stunned for a moment upon hearing this.
However, they quickly realized what was happening and squeezed onto the platform from both sides.
Seeing hundreds of people crowding the wall on the high platform, Zi Yi did not call on his people to maintain order.
He pulled a small roll of paper from his pocket.
These paper rolls are only the size of a thumb and are bound with thin vines to maintain their shape.
There's even a bow in the middle.
There was still a large circle of thin vines left on top.
These were all made by Li Mosi on the spot.
Zi Yi looked at the leaders on the stage.
"You did a great job! You knew to protect me and follow me even in times of danger! I saw your loyalty!"
These words left the people on the platform somewhat bewildered.
Why did it turn into protection and following?
Some of the people lowered their heads, some pursed their lips, and some looked away...
You can find common reactions to awkward situations here.
"That's such a waste of your time."
On the stage, the saint whispered her opinion to Li Mosi.
Zi'an glanced over.
"We have so much food, this little bit of consumption is nothing."
This woman always acts all high and mighty, but she gets upset if she uses up even a little bit of the food in Taris's warehouse.
She felt... was Haki Saint actually very poor?
Their voices were already soft.
With more people on stage, the noise from small movements also increases.
After listening to what the two women said, Li Mosi thought for a moment before filling in the blanks.
He shook his head gently.
You'll understand some things once you've done them.
Zi Yi didn't really understand either.
He looked at the people on the platform, only remembering what his late teacher had said.
"So what if they just follow you? Who knows, we might have to fight a real battle with other nobles later. Even if they're only willing to run away with you then, that'll be a benefit."
What kind of benefit is this?
Zi Yi didn't understand.
He only knew that his master must have had his reasons for saying that!
Thinking of Li Mosi's plan, Zi Yi pointed his spear to the left.
"Starting with the person at the very front, come up one by one to receive your reward. I have something for you!"
Upon hearing of the reward, all eyes of the people immediately turned to him.
The person he pointed to immediately stepped forward.
I have some recollection of this person.
It was the youngest son who was harmed by the steward.
What's his name? "Old Han"
Old Han walked up and knelt in front of Zi Yi with a mixture of embarrassment and excitement.
He was suddenly rewarded and didn't know how to face it.
He knew he couldn't run far, which is why he hid inside the fortress.
Zi Yi took out a small scroll of paper from his hand, unfolded the remaining vines, and the vines in his hand became a necklace.
In his embarrassment, old Han felt something was stuck on his neck.
Zi Yi put the vine around Old Han's neck.
He spoke.
"Keep this safe, it's your honor! From now on, you and your family can receive enough food for three days after just one day of work!"
Three days' worth of food!
