As the sunrise approached, Zheng Xiu smelled the smell of fireworks.
People in the village have already started their day's work.
In a trance, she heard footsteps.
She quickly became alert and became more conscious.
An old woman came with a sigh, holding a rough porcelain bowl, in which was steaming red noodle soup, with green onion and sesame oil floating on it.
Zheng Xiupiyi sat up.
She started to eat noodles.
When she finished eating all the noodles in the bowl and drinking the noodle soup, her body began to feel warm, and her hands and feet gradually gained strength.
"I pardon you."
She said to the old woman who came back to collect the bowl again.
"What are you talking about, what a crime." The old woman shook her head. Looking at this "crazy woman", she felt really pitiful, and couldn't help but want to get rid of those thick clothes and old quilts that were not used, so that this "crazy woman" would not freeze to death soon.
However, Zheng Xiu had already stood up.
Under the shocked gaze of the old woman, Zheng Xiu walked to the place not far ahead, where she was knocked down yesterday.
She took off another loose robe and put it on, then inserted a bamboo pole used to dry clothes on the ground, and broke it off with one hand.
The sound of the bamboo poles cracking was very harsh in this early morning.
The woman from yesterday in the courtyard walked out quickly, and seeing Zheng Xiu holding a broken bamboo pole, the woman's eyes widened in horror.
But she couldn't make any sound.
Because the broken bamboo pole in Zheng Xiu's hand had pierced her throat.
Even without the support of Zhenyuan, Zheng Xiu is still a master in other aspects.
In addition to strength, this sword is still beyond the reach of most practitioners in this world in many aspects.
The bamboo pole that was just broken was blunt and had many fractures of different lengths.
So the woman's pierced throat wound was terrible, and the blood sprayed out from the wound with a hissing sound.
A shrill exclamation sounded.
It was the old woman holding the noodle bowl who made the exclamation.
The whole village was awakened by the old woman's cry.
More exclamations and shouts sounded.
However, Zheng Xiu, who was sprayed all over with blood, did not show any emotional changes.
She turned around numbly, and the bamboo pole in her hand pierced the throat of a man who rushed behind her again.
The sound of blood gushing along with the airflow rang out again.
More and more people with various agricultural tools rushed forward, and someone threw stones at her from a distance.
But she started to move and nothing could fall on her.
The bamboo strands on the blunt end of the bamboo pole in her hand were smoothed by flesh and blood, and everyone in her sight fell into a pool of blood, except for the old woman.
"I said I pardon you... pardon your disrespect."
She looked at the old woman who was already speechless, and said this again softly.
"Crazy woman... You killed it today..." The old woman cried out suddenly, smashed the bowl in her hand at Zheng Xiu, and then rushed towards Zheng Xiu.
For some reason, Zheng Xiu didn't dodge this time.
The noodle bowl hit her and broke into several pieces.
She was in a trance for a moment, but she still passed out the bamboo pole in her hand, piercing the old woman's throat.
"I have pardoned you, but you don't want to."
She said this to the old woman's body, smelling the smell of food, walked into a farmhouse, drank a bowl of noodle soup, ate a dry film, then changed into clean clothes and bandaged her With a wound on his hand, he walked out of the village.
When the injury in the body no longer worsens.
When the true energy could not be recovered and the strength gradually recovered, Zheng Xiu's mind gradually became clear.
She thought of someone.
She felt that that person might allow her to restore her strength in a different way, or allow her to restore her ability to practice.
After she left that village for a long time.
Several farmers who came back from the distant fields saw the miserable condition of the village and cried out heart-piercingly.
A cavalry army from the Great Qin Dynasty arrived very quickly. These sergeants were shocked by the tragedy. They began to search angrily, but they never thought that this was the work of their mistress of Changling.
Zheng Xiu found out the direction, and when it was getting dark, she came to a small town.
She hid her face, took advantage of the nightfall, sneaked into the home of a wealthy family, easily assassinated everyone in the family, and threw their bodies into the well.
Then she ate her supper, washed herself, and put on a warm fur robe.
She wrote a secret letter, went out in the dark, and placed the secret letter under a dilapidated statue of the god of land in front of a seemingly ordinary farmer in this town, and then moved the statue a little. The location of an inconspicuous stone.
Then she went back to the rich man's house and waited.
Jiaodong County has been lost, even her cultivation base has been lost, but close to Changling, the means used by Jiaodong County to transmit messages are still there, and the spies who are loyal to her are still there.
This secret letter of hers will be passed on soon, and finally her meaning will be passed on to Su Qin, who plays an important role in the Great Qi Dynasty at this time.
She didn't know how powerful Su Qin was at this time.
But she knew very well that Su Qin was an extremely greedy young beast.
She believed that Su Qin would definitely accept her deal.
She told Su Qin about the Xinghuo Sword and some special cultivation methods in Jiaodong County, and Su Qin told her about the ghost skills she needed.
Her body can no longer withstand normal cultivation methods, but Qi Dynasty's yin god and ghost skills may be able to turn her body into a monster that walks on the edge of life and death.
She felt that with her talent and means, she would be able to slowly recover her strength.
However, these are her best imagination.
She ignored a person who had mastered many methods in Jiaodong County.
And this person is now by Hu Hai's side.
This is an avenger who would rather give up his cultivation and change his appearance.
And now he is not only secretly aware of some channels in Jiaodong County, but he has also mastered many channels for transmitting information in Changling.
Therefore, the content of Zheng Xiu's secret note was not delivered to Su Qin's hands as soon as she wanted, but was known to this person immediately.
This person easily knew where she was when she escaped from Yanjing.
From the news from Yan Jing, and even the content of this secret letter itself, he could easily deduce Zheng Xiu's situation at this time.
…
In the Great Qin Palace.
Zhao Gao began to bathe and change clothes.
He put on his new clothes solemnly.
Then he left the palace, took a carriage with some dead men who could kill Zheng Xiu, and went to Zheng Xiu's place.
In the eyes of everyone in the palace at this time, he was just a medical officer. Although he started to have some power because of Hu Hai and his own means, he was not a practitioner.
However, today, what puzzled the dead soldiers who followed him was that he himself also carried a sword.
Only Zhao Gao himself knows.
He finally waited for the time.
He will kill this devil who came out of Jiaodong County with his own hands.
