Fugu City, north of the city.
Several sneaky figures approached the city gate in the dark. . .
From time to time, I could hear a few vague words from people.
"Did anyone catch up with us?"
"Don't worry, it's already been thrown off."
"It's really damnable! I'd be inhuman if I don't take revenge!"
Covering his arm from which blood was oozing, the man's face was dark and he almost blended into the night. Who could have thought that he was surrounded by people during the day but became a stray dog at night.
His clan's land was conquered by soldiers led by Chu Yao, Zhao Feng and others, and he had to flee with his people. Now he is running around in a desperate situation, feeling extremely humiliated.
Because the incident happened suddenly, he didn't have time to take away his wives, concubines and other female relatives, even his elderly parents and several sons. He could only watch them being captured by the villains. The servants and maids were so scared that they were busy running around, and the entire clan fell into a howling hell.
Even he himself was protected by his confidants and escaped in the chaos wearing women's outer clothes.
However, his confidants were not optimistic about this.
He has also been out there and has seen the world.
The power and might of Zhao Feng is simply not something that an ordinary warrior can possess. Heyin is just a remote place that is as small as it can be, so why would it attract such an evil god
A warrior of this level of strength would be highly valued no matter which vassal he joined, right? Why would he follow a governor of Heyin County? He was full of doubts, but he could still focus on guarding the head of the family until -
"It's terrible."
Not far from the city gate, I discovered that a barrier had been raised on the city wall.
"What's wrong?" The head of the family looked ferocious, knowing that Shen Tang was well prepared. "Knock out the guards and break out by force."
There are four gates in Fugu City.
I don't believe Shen Tang has so many people at his disposal.
The confidant opened his mouth. He wanted to hide in the city temporarily, and then quietly leave the city after a few days when the wind was relieved. It was quite risky to leave the city at this time, and Shen Tang would definitely arrange people to block him.
It would be fine if I could force my way out, but if I can't...
Isn't that just walking into a trap
However, the patriarch’s worries are not without reason.
The longer the night, the more dreams you have, and the more troubles you will suffer.
They are hiding in Fugu City, and they will be caught sooner or later.
Fortunately, although the number of guards at the city gate increased, they were all ordinary people. The head of the family and a few of his confidants, a total of seven people, the confidant was a fourth-class official, there was another third-class official, and the rest were either low-ranking officials or second-class superiors. Although they were all injured, it was no problem for them to knock down dozens of ordinary people.
You can break through!
The tense nerves in his heart relaxed slightly.
Just as he was about to wait until they got closer before rushing out, a burly figure blocked the entrance of the alley.
The man was extremely tall, about two meters tall, with broad shoulders and thick arms. With the moonlight on his back, his figure alone gave people a great sense of oppression and suffocation.
He stood there alone, blocking most of the exits!
The confidants and others were nervous.
Staring at the person coming.
The head of the family said, "What are you standing there for? Kill him!"
The people who appeared here at this point, if they were not enemies, they could be friends who would help them? Of course, they would strike first and gain the upper hand!
The visitor muttered something indistinctly.
There are faint words like "sir" and "precise".
The sturdy man was no other than Li Li, who had obeyed Kang Shi's order to stay here and wait for the opportunity. Hey, he really caught him - due to limited manpower, Kang Shi led more than 200 people to block the four gates of Fugu City, which made the operation somewhat difficult.
So he took a shortcut.
Directly analyze the terrain of buildings near each city gate, as well as the possible escape routes of each family in the event of a surprise attack, and then allocate troops according to the probability. If the probability is high, the most troops will be allocated and he will be in charge personally, and if the probability is low, the troops will be less.
Li Li now only wants to make a contribution!
He found that the busier he was and the more meritorious he was, the faster he would practice, and the more efficient it would be to convert the energy of heaven and earth into martial energy in the meridians. Li Li had a hunch that at this rate, he would be able to completely develop his Danfu and condense his martial courage in less than two months!
Although condensing one's martial courage is the first real step towards martial arts, this was something that Li Li had never dared to dream of.
The only thing left in his mind was "making a contribution".
One, two, three... six, seven!
There are seven people in total.
They are all brave warriors and literary men!
Li Li didn't show it on his face, but he was very happy inside. He secretly said "fat fish" and was grateful to Kang Shi for giving him the strategy of squatting rabbits.
As soon as the patriarch finished speaking, a low-ranking officer with the least injuries rushed forward. Li Li's eyes were slightly sharp, his center of gravity sank a little, his core was as stable as a mountain, and every muscle in his body was mobilized to the right position, and the whole person was like a cheetah accumulating strength to explode.
With a low roar, he threw out a huge fist.
When Li Li had not yet cultivated his martial energy, he was able to kill a third-class Zan Niao. Now, dealing with a wounded low-ranking officer is like catching a chicken. The low-ranking officer also thought that Li Li was an ordinary person and did not try his best.
When he faced Li Li's fist head-on, he realized that he had underestimated his enemy. His finger bones cracked and several of them were broken!
Not only that, Li Li also grabbed his face with his other palm, which was as big as a palm fan, and threw him to the ground, causing him to roll several times.
He felt dizzy, his entire face was visibly red and swollen, and the outline of a hand appeared on it. He couldn't get up for a long time.
The others realized that something was wrong when they saw the situation, and they acted decisively. They left behind a third-class hairpin and the others escorted the head of the family to evacuate.
How could Li Li give them a chance
Are these people human
No, in his eyes, it’s all “merit”!
It is the cornerstone for him to become powerful!
Not a single piece can be missing!
Similar clashes broke out at various gates.
Due to insufficient defense, a few kittens escaped, but many more were captured alive. The biggest "fat fish" caught by the raccoon was the head of a certain family. As for the other henchmen, they were beaten half to death and tied up and dragged back.
He looks just like a bandit who has been running a business for three years.
However, there were also some "fish that slipped through the net" who, after learning from the previous experience, chose to remain in place and instead took a different approach by launching a surprise attack on the government office. Needless to say, the government office was empty, there were no guards, and the dilapidated buildings were not worth much. They then launched a surprise attack on the elderly, the weak, the women and the children brought by Shen Tang, hoping to retaliate against him.
The result—
Gu Chi said that he was not deaf.
You can hear their malicious voices from a distance, and it is difficult to ignore them or not know where they are.
If you stay in your old nest, you will get success from heaven.
hey-hey-
The gift may be small but the sentiment is great.
These idiots didn't know how they were exposed until they were caught. Gu Chi looked at the faces with almost ferocious and twisted expressions with disdain and waved his hand: "Knock them all out and take them away."
Stay away from him, he's so noisy.
Bai Su came over holding two swords with long spikes.
Said: "Sir, all the people have been caught."
Shen Tang wanted Bai Su to learn more, but was worried about the chaos, so after some consideration, he decided to let her follow Gu Chi to guard the base camp, so as not to let the "slippery fish" of the other families have a chance to take advantage. Bai Su was also diligent, and she stayed in the dark, allowing her to catch two groups of people.
Thirteen people in total.
The strength is not very strong.
It's only second-class quality.
Bai Su did not take the tough and fierce route, but the nimble and changeable route. She was originally no match for the enemy, but she had the assistance of scholars and writers although she was an ordinary person. She wielded two long-spiked swords in her hands, with complex and changeable sword techniques, and was capable of both offense and defense, making it hard to defend against.
Wherever the sword goes, the long ears of corn will follow.
Each of them was beaten to a bloody mess by her. Even their own mother might not recognize them. The eyeballs of two of them were popped out.
Yes, my eyeballs popped out.
Gouged out by a long-spiked curved blade.
Bai Su stomped him to pieces again with a cold face.
Gu Chi: “…”
Bai Su asked, "Are you feeling unwell, sir?"
She had a bad impression of Gu Chichu, but as a scholar beside Shen Tang, Bai Su believed that he would be an equal colleague in the future, so she tried to get along with him.
Gu Chi also played assists tonight, which increased his favorability.
Gu Chi said: "... No, I'm not feeling uncomfortable."
Bai Su shook off the blood stain on the sword and sheathed it: "The medicine for tonight should be ready. I'll have someone bring it over."
Gu Chi: "Then I'll trouble Lady Bai."
As for asking Bai Su to go back and wash her shoes...
Ah, forget it_(:з)∠?)_
In the cold winter, the sun rises late.
The people of Fugu City got up and worked before dawn.
No one expected that the night that had shrouded them for many years had quietly passed and was about to usher in the dawn.
Several officials from the government office came to punch in for work early in the morning.
As a result, seeing the blood that had dried for a long time at the door, their hearts tightened and they hurried in, holding up their clothes. There was no one anywhere, the door was wide open, and the furnishings were in a mess, as if the new county magistrate climbing up the roof to repair the tiles and beams yesterday was all a pipe dream for them.
An ominous feeling filled their hearts...
No way
This new county magistrate disappeared just two days after taking office
They looked at each other, smiled bitterly and shook their heads.
The others asked one of them for information.
County Magistrate Shen Tang handed over a business card to Zhang, so he would not have offended the person completely, so why was he killed by Zhang overnight
The old official from Fu Gu who was questioned was also confused.
He assured that the business card he handed over was fine.
If something really happened—
Most likely there was a dispute during the subsequent communication
No matter which one it is, Shen Tang should at least give them three months' salary. It is reasonable to also contribute some money to buy them a thin coffin. In the next life, he should keep his eyes open and never be so reckless.
well.
Several people sighed.
As a result, Shen Tang, who in their eyes had died a violent death and whose body was dumped in the wilderness outside the city, walked in carelessly with a smile on his face, humming a strange tune, and deliberately swinging his high ponytail left and right.
It seemed as if every strand of hair was filled with joy.
The jade pendant on the waist jingled loudly, which made one's brain hurt.
The scholars following County Magistrate Shen could no longer tolerate this.
"My Lord—"
Shen Tang asked: "What's wrong?"
Qi Shan said helplessly: "A gentleman wears jade, walks with the spirit of Qi, walks in the wind, turns in the middle, bends in the middle..."
In Shen Tang's ears, it was just blah blah blah...
"What do you mean?"
Qishan said succinctly: "Walk more steadily."
Shen Tang was puzzled: "I didn't jump when I walked..."
Qishan: “…”
Facts have proved that a person as eccentric as Shen Xiaolangjun is indeed not suitable to wear a jade pendant, as it is too torturous to his ears with obsessive-compulsive disorder.
How did the jade pendant come about
Last night, a large number of "New Year's goods" were purchased. Shen Tang happily selected a few good-looking ones to wear, looking like a nouveau riche who got rich overnight. Hehe. Just as he was laughing, he saw a few old officials with drooping faces, and they looked like they had seen a ghost when they saw him. It was strange.
"You all came so early today."
