Chapter 5: Sweet Rain Falls from Heaven
In the crowd that night, Zhang Shigen's standing figure was not there.
This skinny man, who had high expectations for Chu Xun, traded his life for one of the arms of the Martial Master from Three Stones Village.
When he was carried back, his abdomen had caved in.
The Martial Master had kicked and broken most of his ribs, piercing his internal organs full of holes.
The only thing worth rejoicing over was that his state of death couldn't be considered tragic.
Zhang Anxiu cried so hard she couldn't stand up, hugging her dad's corpse and calling out to him again and again.
In the entire Pinecone Village, the sound of crying could be heard everywhere for those few days.
A few crows, not finding Chu Xun's figure by the fields, lingered in the village.
They blinked their eyes, watching pieces of white cloth being hung up in the farmhouses and coffins being transported into the village.
