"Yes, Lord Marquis."
Soldier A responded and was about to go out. Shen Zhi barged in at this moment. Hearing this, he quickly shouted: "Wait a minute!"
"What, you want to stop me too?" Ji Beihou said gloomily.
"My lord, how dare I stop you? It's okay to kill Pei Ziyun, but it's just a family member..." Shen Zhi was pierced by his fierce gaze. He knew that if there was not enough reason at this time, even he might be killed, so he leaned closer and whispered. Several times.
The Marquis of Jibei looked suspicious, and after a long time he said hoarsely: "What, Prince?"
The Marquis of Jibei suddenly roared, and the sword flashed, and a maid stood on one side. When the sword was slashed, she screamed and fell out, blood splattering.
Yongzhou Liquan County
The sky was dark, the stars were obscured by thick clouds, and snowflakes blew down in the early wind.
But you can still see a few people, all dressed in black, wearing leggings, running fast in fast shoes, stepping on the pebbly river beach.
"Hurry, run away, that person is chasing me. I didn't expect that this person came here and not only killed the gang leader, but also the hall leader. We are all the gang leader's confidants. I'm afraid this person will never let us go. "A man in black ran away and said to his subordinates who were following him.
This time, if I hadn't gone out to catch the autumn wind and not be in the hall, I would have been afraid that no one would be able to escape. I saw a person chasing the hall master from a distance, and I wanted to save him, but I didn't expect that the hall master couldn't even take three moves and was killed. killed.
"Quick, quick, that person will definitely find us. As long as we escape to Heti, there is a boat there. If we take the boat down the river, the person will definitely not be able to catch up with us. Then we will report the matter to him." The man in black Thinking clearly, he was panting as he ran to make arrangements for his men.
The river ahead was approaching, and several people saw the rushing river water. They hit the boat with white foam, and several people ran away desperately. It seemed that there was a monster behind them. When they saw the boat in front, they jumped on it and couldn't wait to pick up the bamboo poles. To punt, go down the river.
The people behind them also jumped onto the boat, looking into the night with fear. Only when they reached the river did they breathe a sigh of relief.
"Captain, who is this person? Why is he chasing us like this?" Someone asked in a low voice, his voice trembling: "Which person on the road is so cruel?"
"Who knows, news has been coming these days that many cousins were picked and many brothers were killed. I'm afraid we are the only ones left now. Damn it, we don't even know who we killed."
"However, if we go down the river in a boat, it will be difficult for us to catch up even on horseback." The helmsman exhaled and said, but just as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard the sound of water. There were no stars in the dark night, so he couldn't see clearly. , in the panic, the ship sank, and a man wearing a raincoat was already standing on the bow under the light.
The helmsman suddenly pulled out his long knife and shouted loudly: "Who are you and why do you have to kill us? We had no grudges in the past and no grudges these days."
There was a stammer in his voice and a look of fear on his face.
"Why are you forcing yourself so hard?" Several people behind the helmsman were trembling, and one person seemed to be risking his life and said loudly.
The man in coir raincoat in front of him killed the entire Baishan Society's main hall, and there were quite a few masters in it.
"Actually, I don't want to kill you, but you are with the wrong person. Who said you are Qin Gao's gang members? Some people want you to die, and I also want you to die. I can only eradicate you one by one without leaving any future troubles. "The man in the coir raincoat was Pei Ziyun. He looked a little melancholy and sighed.
"No, you are not a human, you are a devil." The helmsman looked at Pei Ziyun with fear in his eyes. This man in front of him has killed so many people and still won't give up. What is he if he is not a devil
"Actually, if you have a choice, who would kill?" Pei Ziyun murmured to himself, with some confusion in his eyes. The helmsman looked at Pei Ziyun, suddenly shouted and went to kill: "Brothers, run away!"
The boat was not that big. When the helmsman rushed forward, the ship started to sway a little. Pei Ziyun drew his sword and the sword flashed. The helmsman had no time to take action and fell out.
"Run away quickly, don't be stubborn..." Before the helmsman could finish his words, he died, no longer alive, and blood flowed out from his neck, turning red.
"Plop!" The remaining people jumped into the river. Pei Ziyun looked at these people and shook their heads. Even if these people are proficient in water properties, what can they do? Can they escape
The water in the river was freezing cold. A person swam under the water for who knows how far before he raised his head to breathe. When he raised his head, a slight cold light flashed, and a little blood seeped out from his eyebrows. He threw himself into the river and flowed down the river. .
Pei Ziyun glanced sadly and took out another needle. If he hadn't become a Yin Shen, it would have been possible to disperse and escape. Now he could only kill one by one.
With a kick, the board fell to the water. Pei Ziyun stood a little on the board and stabbed the water with his sword. Bubbles appeared and the water surface turned red.
A person ran forward on the beach. These people were all water pilots who were proficient in water skills and fled in all directions. This person climbed onto the shore, shivering and breathing heavily. He looked behind him and saw that there was no one there. He trembled and said to himself: "Where did the God of Killing come from? He killed all the brothers. Hall master, helmsman, Lao Han, Lao Jiang, do I still have a chance to avenge you in my life?"
"It's gone." I heard the sound of wind behind me, and before I could turn around, my neck felt cold, and the sword light penetrated and was quickly pulled out.
The man didn't feel pain, he only felt very cold. An irresistible chill quickly took over his body and mind as blood spurted out, and he fell to the ground instantly, lifeless.
Pei Ziyun put away his sword and was silent. The man's eyes were wide open and he was staring into the distance. Pei Ziyun looked into the distance with some melancholy and waves in his heart.
The wind blew, the withered grass swayed, and with a chill, Pei Ziyun sighed: "It's the New Year again. I think about this time last year, Liao Ge and I went to the capital together with the soldiers."
"By the way, Liao Ge is really miserable. His only daughter is dead and still being oppressed by the tribe. If I hadn't rushed there, she might have died."
"The worst thing is that because the grade is too low, there are no posthumous titles or gifts from the government!"
The posthumous title refers to the country's profit and loss to the deceased. Those who lose are in hell, and those who benefit are in heaven. Some people think that this is the emperor's way of controlling his ministers, but not only the ministers, but also the emperor believe it.
The most special thing is that in his original world, Cao Rui couldn't wait to give himself a posthumous title "Ming" before he died. According to legend, Li Dongyang, a great scholar of Wuzong in the Ming Dynasty, refused to close his eyes even when the lamp was dry, and Yang Yiqing, a great scholar, visited him. He only said one sentence, to the effect that the court would give him the posthumous title "Wen Zheng" after his death. Upon hearing this, the dying Li Dongyang jumped up and kowtowed on the bed to express his gratitude.
All of this is really deplorable. Regardless of whether it is true or false in the original world, in this world, the effect of posthumous titles on the spiritual world is true, but not all officials have it.
Customized by Da Xu, only the emperor, the male son of a duke, and an official of third rank or above are eligible to receive a posthumous title. Liao Ge does not have this qualification. As for the gift of an official, the threshold is much lower, but it is not a popular product.
However, the posthumous title given to relatives, disciples and former officials is called private posthumous title. This kind of posthumous title basically has no effect on the deceased, so let's not talk about it.
"Liao Ge, you may not be well underground. I'll burn some paper for you when I go back." Pei Ziyun said, this association diluted a lot of Liao Liao, thinking: "Now it's time to go to Liangzhou, where there are not only The person I want to kill also has the sustenance I want."
"This is a magical power that can reduce the backlash of official qi. It is a relic of Taoist Jingming. It is said that Taoist Jingming killed officials several times and escaped with his life. It is said that the magical power can weaken the backlash of official qi."
King Lu, Marquis of Jibei, which one of these is not an official, and which one has no dragon spirit. Killing the chess pieces only removes the skin, and cannot hurt the roots at all, let alone fight with them.
"It's time to go to Liangzhou." Pei Ziyun just smiled and stepped out. Snowflakes fell on his body, and it turned completely white in a moment.
tent
The wind was chilly, blowing like a knife, blowing on the military tent, as if it was about to overturn the tent.
There is a bonfire in the big tent, and there is also a stove with charcoal fire inside, which is heating the tent.
At this time, two people were talking on the desk in the military tent.
"Eunuch Ding, it is taboo for the imperial court to mobilize the army like this." The county magistrate followed the eunuch and murmured in a low voice.
"What are you afraid of? The sky is falling, and I am holding the support from above. Do they think that you, a mere county magistrate, can mobilize the army?" The eunuch said coldly.
"Yes, Eunuch Ding taught you a lesson." The county magistrate who followed Eunuch Ding quickly responded, a little panicked and did not dare to say anything more.
He didn't speak in the big tent, as if he was waiting, but the county magistrate on the other side was frightened. Eunuch Ding glanced at the magistrate, took a cup and drank a cup. He felt happy and secretly despised.
The county magistrate is seventh grade, and he is sixth grade. He is higher, but he is an internal official, so this person does not need to be so panicked.
The stove next to him was burning red and steaming. The eunuch sat on one side, reading a letter, thinking, and tapping the table lightly with one hand.
The curtain of the big tent was raised, and a soldier came forward with a letter. When he opened the curtain, he could see the hurried armored soldiers outside the tent, who seemed to be patrolling.
"Eunuch, we have found Pei Ziyun's traces. His direction is to Liangzhou."
"Eunuch Ding, this man is crazy. It's just not appropriate for us to mobilize the army to follow him out of the country." The county magistrate looked at the father-in-law in Prince Lu's Mansion to persuade him. This was really too much.
The eunuch heard this and sneered: "Who said that we will mobilize the army to leave the country privately? I will only bring my soldiers from Prince Lu's palace to follow."
"But this man is crazy and crazy. He has attacked people many times, killed people and stolen goods. He is a serious criminal. He is arrested and pursued by soldiers. Who can find fault?"
Listening to the eunuch's words, the county magistrate felt cold sweat break out all over his body, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
While the county magistrate was thinking about it, the eunuch thought for a while and then asked: "This is not far from Liangzhou. Do you know how many masters of arresting there are in the government?"
After listening to the eunuch's words, the county magistrate thought carefully and said after a while: "There is a head catcher in Yingbei Mansion in Liangzhou. His surname is Ji. He is a first-class good catcher and is known as a famous catcher. It is said that the family ate this meal in the previous dynasties. I am acting as a head catcher, and I have many apprentices, but you also know that being a head catcher is not in the mainstream, not an official... "
Although the county magistrate was timid, he was familiar with political affairs. This was a reminder. The eunuch understood immediately and looked at the soldier in front of him and ordered: "Inform Liangzhou to set up a net. Since Ji Dan is a famous arrester, this time the task will be handed over to him." He must arrest Pei Ziyun and bring him to justice, and tell him that if it is done, the Sa family will recommend him to an official position!"
The county magistrate just sighed after seeing it. He also heard some rumors: "It's just that it was not turned into a wanted person. In fact, he was listed as a rebel. He was secretly sentenced to death. He was accidentally killed during the arrest. Who can say anything?
"It's a pity that this person is talented. He is still Jieyuan, but he insists on going against King Lu? Don't you know that a moth flies into a flame, and an egg strikes a stone?"
