Cliff, narrow road; brother, justice!
Li Chengfeng did not expect that they would encounter such a thing on their way to escape.
On one side is the life of the brother, on the other side is the justice upheld in the heart!
As the leader of this small group, where should he go at this moment
At this moment, there was a battle between heaven and man in Li Chengfeng's mind!
When Ouyang Nan heard the following words, he was so angry that he almost filled his pupils with blood. He was originally an impulsive, reckless and hot-blooded person. After hearing this, he became furious. He gritted his teeth and said: "Junior brother, let me go down and I will kill him." Just these bastards!"
Li Chengfeng grabbed Ouyang Nan and said, "Senior Brother Ouyang, didn't you teach me: we can't save everyone?"
Ouyang Nan was speechless. He said anxiously: "But if you ignore it, then, then, then I..."
Li Chengfeng held Ouyang Nan's arm firmly and said: "I know, Senior Brother Ouyang, you don't need to tell me. Whether he is a commoner, a warrior, a scribe, or a monk, in life, a man should do something and not do something. ! If we even turn a blind eye to this matter, then are we still human beings!"
Ouyang Nan was overjoyed and was so excited that he patted Li Chengfeng on the shoulder and was speechless for a moment.
The big fool struggled to get down. He leaned against the wall, took a breath, and said with a forced smile: "Junior Brother Chengfeng, Senior Brother Ouyang, you go ahead. I can still hold on at this point."
Li Chengfeng patted the silly big man on the shoulder and said to Ouyang Nan: "Senior Brother Ouyang, you take them and continue walking. I will go down to save people. After saving people, I will catch up."
Ouyang Nan knew that rescuing people was like putting out fires, so he was not polite and said: "Okay, I will take my junior brothers there and I will leave a note for you! Every twenty meters, you will see stones placed at the foot of the tree. Just look in the direction the tip of the stone is pointing."
Li Chengfeng nodded. He glanced down and saw the fire in the valley below getting closer and closer. He took a deep breath and slid down the steep slope.
The person below the valley is naturally Chu Yun, the chief secretary of Tong'an.
In the first half of Chu Yun's life, he was just one of the ignorant bureaucrats in Daqi. He passed the Jinshi examination, but almost failed to succeed, and was finally transferred to Tong'an City.
If it weren't for the turmoil in Tong'an, he would have remained in this state of confusion forever.
Until this day, fire rain fell from the sky!
Chu Yun witnessed with his own eyes that all his relatives and friends were buried in this turmoil. The unquenchable fire of revenge and the burning fire of justice in his body were instantly ignited!
In the past, he had been dawdling in the officialdom with the idea of muddling along, but now, he found that what the prefect Xu Tao did had severely penetrated his bottom line!
This middle-aged man who usually seemed a bit humble now straightened his back and was determined to avenge thousands of wronged souls from his fellow citizens!
However, the reason why bad people are bad people is not only because they have a black heart to do evil, but also because they have cunning and clever minds!
Although Chu Yun finally pulled back from the brink and stopped breaking up with Xu Tao on the spot, resulting in his own death on the spot, Xu Tao still became suspicious and murderous, determined to kill Chu Yun and silence him!
After Chu Yun went out, he was also worried that Xu Tao and the others would come to kill and silence him, so he deliberately rode the horse he came on and ran away in the opposite direction.
It was naturally Commander Zhang and his men who were following Chu Yun. They expected Xu Tao to flee to the southwest because that was the closest road to Tong'an and the shortest road out of the customs.
However, Chu Yun did run towards the northeast, letting Commander Zhang and others chase him for more than ten miles before he realized something was wrong. At this time, he hurriedly circled back and had already been thrown away for a long time.
But... It seemed that it was fate. When Chu Yun rode his horse to escape to the mountain intersection of the official road, he found that the mountain collapsed and blocked the road. In desperation, he had to dismount from the mountain.
However, as a scholar, once he dismounts from his horse, he will naturally not be able to go any faster, especially since he is not like Li Chengfeng and others who can climb all the way up. Out of breath, I climbed along another mountain road towards the valley, preferring to go a little further.
But after doing this, he was finally chased by Commander Zhang and others.
In this night valley, Chu Yun hid in the grass, not daring to take a breath. He originally thought that the pursuers would pass by his hiding place, and he could return to the original route and get rid of the pursuers.
Unexpectedly, rocks fell from the mountain, and one of the stone fragments hit him. He was so shocked that he subconsciously screamed!
Commander Zhang and others who were not far away noticed it immediately and drew their swords to chase after him!
Chu Yun screamed in despair, but there was only his echo in the valley, but there was no response. Commander Zhang and others saw that Chu Yun was forced into a dead end in the valley with no way to escape. He held a knife and slowly approached , laughed loudly and said: "Who hears it in this barren mountain? Even if it hears it, who dares to save you?"
Chu Yun leaned against the wall in despair. He quickly looked around, looking for a way out, but at this time all the escape routes were blocked by these pursuers. The bright swords in their hands were dazzling in the dark night moonlight.
Chu Yun said sadly and angrily: "You are all from Tong'an. Are you indifferent when you see the elders from your hometown all over the city dying? I don't ask you to redress the grievances of the people, but why do you want to help the tyrants do evil!"
These words made the other guards look at each other, all showing shame, and subconsciously lowered the long swords in their hands.
Chu Yun said quickly: "Think about the neighbors around you, your relatives and friends, whether they have survived this turmoil!"
Commander Zhang laughed loudly and said: "You should think carefully about whether you and your respective families can survive after violating the order of the governor!"
The guards suddenly became stern and held the steel sword tightly in their hands. Commander Zhang said with a ferocious smile: "My lord, I said, whoever kills him first will be rewarded with a hundred silver coins!"
There must be a brave man under a heavy reward, let alone just killing a scholar who has no strength to tie a chicken
Chu Yun screamed desperately: "I am an official of the imperial court, and I am the chief secretary of Tong'an. You killing officials is tantamount to rebellion! Don't you want to live?"
Commander Zhang sneered and said: "Who knows that our chief secretary was killed in the barren mountains and wilderness, and his corpse was exposed in the wilderness? By then, I am afraid that only the wolf in the mountains and the beasts in the forest will know!"
Chu Yun stared at Commander Zhang with hatred, and gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiaocheng! You acted as a helper to a tiger and did such an unscrupulous thing, aren't you afraid of divine punishment?"
"God's punishment? God's punishment?!" Zhang Xiaocheng seemed to have heard the most ridiculous joke in the world. He pointed at the rolling red clouds in Tong'an City that had not yet dissipated, and said, "Did you see it? This is what you call heaven's punishment! Those good and honest people, How are they? They are dead! They are all dead!!"
"This is a cannibalistic world, don't you know! Only bad people can live! Only bad people can live better!" Zhang Xiaocheng waved his hands with a ferocious look on his face, "God's punishment? Since there is God's punishment, let it come at me!" God, if you have eyes, open them and let this scourge beat me to death!"
Zhang Xiaocheng shouted, he looked up at the sky, waited for a while, spread his hands, and laughed: "It seems that God doesn't have eyes! Oh, no, God doesn't have eyes, he doesn't have eyes here! God’s eyes are on those who have the power to decide our life and death!! Divine punishment? Let me tell you! There is no divine punishment in this world, only fists! Whoever has a bigger fist is qualified to impose divine punishment!"
Zhang Xiaocheng raised his knife and smiled ferociously: "Now, I am your punishment!"
Chu Yun leaned tightly against the cliff and murmured subconsciously: "I don't believe it. I believe there is always justice in this world. There is always justice in this world. I, I want to go to Beijing to file a lawsuit against the emperor. I want to file a lawsuit against the emperor." , I want your Majesty to know the human tragedy here!"
Zhang Xiaocheng sneered: "Justice? Justice? Huh, where are they! Maybe there are them, but you have no chance to see them!"
Zhang Xiaocheng turned his head and winked at the guards on the side. One of them gritted his teeth, stepped forward with a knife, and started to chop with the knife!
Chu Yun subconsciously closed his eyes in despair!
Just when the knife was about to hit Chu Yun's head, a short bone-spurred spear suddenly pierced the guard's chest in the night. His body shook violently, and the steel knife in his hand fell to the ground. He covered his chest, He took a mouthful of blood and looked up subconsciously.
Everyone subconsciously looked up at this moment, only to see a black shadow sliding down the cliff. When he was about to land, he kicked off his feet and fell from the sky like a roc spreading its wings!
Kick the guard over with one kick and trample him under his feet!
This sudden change shocked the pursuers.
Zhang Xiaocheng shouted nervously: "I am Zhang Xiaocheng, the commander of Tong'an City, who are you!"
The man squatted, straightened up, raised his head, and stared at Zhang Xiaocheng with burning eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, "I am your damnation!!"
