There was noisy outside, and Zhu Wei returned to the main hall of the village. Although there was a field of corpses next door, with more than thirty corpses of women and children stacked there, the soldiers had fought countless battles and crawled out of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. They were afraid of dead people and resentful spirits. , not caring at the moment.

After entering the hall, he lit a candle and went up to play with the silver. As he got closer to the box, he heard a "buzz" sound. There was a chill in the room, the candles and the fire were extinguished, and the whole room fell into darkness.

"Woo..." The dark wind blew in, and will-o'-the-wisps appeared on the box, and suddenly there were cries, and silhouettes of people who had been hacked to death appeared in the black smoke.

"who?"

Seeing these ghosts, Zhu Wei was not afraid at all, and drew his sword: "I am an officer and a soldier, you are a rebel. It is natural and right for me to kill you. If you want to cry out for injustice, it is treason - I can kill you, I can do it myself." Kill again."

As he spoke, the light of the sword struck straight down. Strangely enough, with this strike of the sword, the cries and silhouettes of people were suddenly extinguished. Zhu Wei laughed loudly, and just then he sheathed the sword. The suddenly dispersed black energy condensed in mid-air and turned into It turned into a big snake, and with a "pop" sound, it bit the man's chest.

"Ah!" Zhu Wei groaned and staggered, but for just a moment, his face suddenly turned gray. This man was also a man. He gritted his teeth and suddenly threw away the knife.

The knife cut through the void, and there was a "pop" sound of blood splashing, and a vague figure suddenly appeared. The man's face changed drastically: "No, I saw blood, and the trance technique was broken."

"My lord, my lord!" The archers outside heard something bad and broke in. When they saw a figure sneaking out, they immediately called the police and checked on Zhu Wei.

"It's not good, the master was killed."

At this time, Cao San was startled outside, with blood stains on his body. For a moment, he threw away the food and wine in his hands and rushed into the stronghold. These archers experienced a fight, and they all started searching in groups of three or five.

At this time, Pei Ziyun and the other local heroes no longer stepped forward. They all watched indifferently. Looking at the farce, only Pei Ziyun held the bow and glanced over it. They gradually reached a shadow and suddenly opened his hands. bow, pull up the bowstring.

With a "whoosh", an arrow pierced through, and with a "pop", a shadow outside the fire finally couldn't bear it anymore and screamed.

"Who, who?" Xiangyong shouted.

Pei Ziyun didn't step forward, and looked at the man in white clothes. An arrow hit the man's shoulder. With a loud shout, the bow was drawn to the full moon again. With a "pop" sound, this time the arrow penetrated straight into the white clothes. The man groaned, his eyes full of unwillingness, he stood frozen for a few seconds, and then he jumped down.

"Okay!" Everyone present couldn't help but yelled "ok", and even Zhang Dashan couldn't help but open his mouth. This Pei Ziyun is a scholar... He actually has such archery skills.

Pei Ziyun stepped forward and saw that it was really a casual cultivator. At this time, he said to himself: "If you weren't angry in your heart and wanted to kill Zhu Wei and messed up the situation, I still wouldn't be able to kill you."

This is actually nonsense. Even if Zhu Wei is not killed, Pei Ziyun still wants to organize a search. He immediately goes up and gropes around the body of the casual cultivator. His hands are trembling and he thinks to himself: "I hope there is one!"

When I touch one suddenly, I feel excited in my heart. There is no need to open it, but there is a feeling of sustenance coming from my hand.

I saw only a mountain bead and a booklet. The handwriting of the booklet was neat. When I opened it, there were dense records about cultivation. This method didn't matter, but the petals of the plum blossoms trembled slightly, which showed that when this person practiced the method on his own, he had This book is very cherished and has been with it for more than ten years. It has been soaked in this person's spiritual power and can be a sustenance for this person's faith.

Pei Ziyun immediately hid the bead and booklet in his sleeve. At this time, the angry Cao San came out of the stronghold. Seeing this, he hacked at the corpse without saying a word. After a moment, he stopped and said, "Pei Xiucai, what should we do now?"

"What else can we do?" Pei Ziyun straightened up and said coldly: "If such a big thing happens, we can only wait for the inspection master to come and deal with it in person."

With that said, he ignored Cao San's unwilling look and waved his sleeves away.

… …

the next day

After receiving the report, the inspection team hurried to the village. There were blood flowers everywhere, and the heads of the corpses had been cut off and piled together.

During the inspection, they found that the corpses were all dressed in green clothes with blood flowers on them. A black wolf head was faintly embroidered on the clothes. The blood on the ground had long solidified, but they turned a blind eye.

What does it mean if a soldier kills some people

At this time, Cao San came up to him and whispered. The inspector couldn't help but twitching the muscles on his face, and he cursed in a low voice: "Idiot! None of the bandits died in the encirclement and suppression, only one was injured. This is a great achievement, but they were killed for money." It’s such a disgrace that the plot is dead!”

It was only when the inspection team entered the stronghold that they couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and then they understood why Zhu Wei wanted to make him faint. These gold and silver were the savings of Black Wind Stronghold, and this eradication was really a great harvest.

The inspector's heart moved, he moved his lips and smiled: "Pei Xiucai, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

Pei Ziyun glanced at it and suddenly smiled: "The inspector personally led the archers to encircle and suppress the Black Wind Bandits, annihilating them in one fell swoop. This was a huge thief who caused trouble for hundreds of miles. It is really a blessing for the people of this county that the leader of the thieves be awarded a rank. Captain Cao is also here." As a vanguard, with extraordinary bravery, I only wish Lord Wei Zhu, who took the lead last night and killed the enemy bravely, but died on the spot."

"As for these..." Pei Ziyun stepped forward and took out a piece of snow-white thin silver from the box. He coolly gave it to him and said, "I took it myself."

He said and turned to leave.

Seeing this, the patrol inspector sighed for a long time: "What a scholar!"

Seeing that Cao San still didn't understand, he felt a little embarrassed and said: "We soldiers are not as good as scholars. If he doesn't take this ingot, we will not be relieved. If he takes this ingot, and only takes one ingot, it will be a waste of credit and wealth." It’s all given to us.”

"You are so young and such a hero. I have only seen Mr. Xu with such character. Come here, bring the money and goods back, and we will clean up the battlefield."

Woniu Village·Pei Family

By the way, Pei Ziyun hurried home. When he got home, it was almost noon. By this time, Pei's mother had prepared food. After finishing it, she chatted with her mother for a while before returning to the room.

The newly renovated room has been elegantly decorated, with a screen separating half of the room. Inside is a wooden couch, and outside is a bookshelf. The books on the shelf are neatly arranged, with thousands of them. However, Zhao Ning added more to it. In addition to the bookshelf, There is also a desk by the window. The window is covered with window paper, and there are inkstones, paper and pens on the table.

Pei Ziyun sat on the wooden couch, lost in thought, and his mood gradually calmed down. Although he was calm not long ago, he felt scared now. These retired patrol patrolmen were really cruel.

"But I have the reputation of being a scholar, and I have such a move. If I take dirty silver, I will be fine in the future. I can also sell favors."

This is an ingot of official silver, standard ten taels, with a thin white background and frosted edges. It used to be a lot for the Pei family, but now it is just pocket money.

"Actually, as soon as Zhu Wei died, another night passed and I couldn't hide it. If I insisted, I could get at least two to three hundred taels of silver, but why bother?"

"We don't have much money, and we have a grudge. Now the inspector is responsible for everything, including Zhu Wei's death."

"Besides, for me, I got a big head!"

Pei Ziyun took a sip of Cha, put the bowl on the table, exhaled, took out two pieces, and looked at the mountain bead. The original owner in the previous life was a serious beginner. This knowledge also said: "This mountain bead can be refined." A magic weapon is just very low-end, and there is no good product in the casual cultivation fruit."

"But if we sell it, we still have a thousand taels of silver."

"Let me take a look at this booklet."

As soon as I opened the book, I took a closer look and saw that the handwriting was as red as blood, with many figures of symbols and seals. Some men and women were not wearing clothes, laughing and playing. They were all spring paintings, and there were also ancient seals. Behind them were dense annotations and experiences.

I didn’t know much about the Demon Sect Kung Fu in my previous life, so I read it. I only reached the back when I saw the handwriting of this casual cultivator. After reading it carefully, I felt a little cold. It turned out that the Demon Sect had laid out the chess pieces a long time ago, and this casual cultivator was A chess piece of the Demon Sect, and it was written on it, and it was written on it. The record stated that he was from the county, and his surname was Zhang. Pei Ziyun said: "It seems that there is evidence that it is Zhang Jieyu."

He continued reading, feeling both angry and amused, and said: "This casual cultivator has a shallow foundation after all. These Taoisms are all evil detours. I think they are inseparable from the Taoisms of the Holy Prison Sect."

"If you learn it, you will be in trouble."

"I'm just lucky that I don't need to learn at all, I just need to intercept a glimmer of inspiration."

After calming down my thoughts, I picked up this booklet and could feel the strong feeling of this casual cultivator: "The Taoism is wrong and the path is wrong, but the desire to seek the Tao is probably about the same?"

At that moment, he put it under the pillow, gently placed his head on the pillow, and waited for the dream to unfold. As long as this dream passed, he would be able to gain spiritual wisdom and Taoism, and everything would be different by then.

I was really tired yesterday, and it seemed to be the effect of plum blossoms. After a few minutes, I fell into a deep sleep.

It was another sunny afternoon, different from last time. It was now close to late spring, and the chill had basically disappeared. The sun shone through the window and slanted in the room, and Pei Ziyun woke up.

Pei Ziyun got out of bed and went to the window. In the lake opposite, there were lotus flowers against the sunshine and the clear rippling water. It was very beautiful. He looked at the sunshine and saw that he had not slept for a long time, but he was not happy and wrinkled. frown.

There was indeed a dream in my sleep just now, but unlike the second time I had a clear dream, this time it was vague. When I woke up, I only vaguely remembered that the content of the dream was a person's life, but I couldn't remember the details at all.

This is not right.

Isn't this the thing of sustenance that works

"System!" There is no need to close your eyes and meditate, just call it, a small white plum appears in front of you, and quickly enlarges, turning into a translucent information frame, floating in the field of vision with a faint sense of light, and as you pay attention, the information It will be automatically activated.

"What, my current authority is only one petal. To absorb supernatural Taoism, even the most basic one, I must form a second petal?"

"To form the second petal, the current scholar position cannot meet the family's expectations. Is it necessary to win the exam?"

Just then I thought about it, the translucent data frame changed, and a line of words formed.

"Task five: pass the examination and fulfill mother's wish (unfinished)"
