Chapter 120: Entering Chen County (Part 2)

"drink……"

The low and powerful roar suppressed the mixed shouts of killing.

Chen Dao jumped high out of the surging crowd, and the waist sword he held high in his hand suddenly burst into flames with a length of two feet. He pushed the waist sword down with a red face, as if the light waist sword suddenly became heavier than ever.

When the dozens of black-armored warriors blocking the gate of the county guard's office saw this, their first reaction was not to forcibly interrupt Chen Dao's sword power before it reached its peak.

Instead, they all turned their bodies and stood sideways. One person stretched out a palm to touch the vest of the other person in front of him, while the other hand held a long knife and continued to kill the red-coated soldiers rushing towards them.

The moment the palms of more than a dozen people connected and merged into one, a thick black mist rose up. The leader held a knife in both hands and slashed out against the surging red sword energy!

The long, narrow-edged sword that was as tall as a man fell, and there seemed to be a roar of a tiger in the void, and a jet of black sword energy that looked like a spring rose into the sky.

It’s too late to say it, but it will be soon!

From Chen Dao's leap to those black-armored dead soldiers forming a counterattack, it only took two or three snaps!

But when Chen Sheng's mind kept up with the rhythm of their battle, two fierce saber energy had already intersected mightily over the crowd.

"boom."

A loud bang that made the entire county guard's office tremble exploded in the air, and the violent energy turned into a violent wind, blowing so many red-coated soldiers on the ground that they could hardly stand still!

In the dazzling halo, Chen Dao, whose armor was shattered, vomited blood and flew back.

At the same time, a black light accompanied by a loud roar came from behind, piercing through the black mist in front of a dozen black-armored dead soldiers, lifting one of them up in the air and nailing him to the side of the rear door.

On the huge pillars and beams.

One person dies.

The dozens of black-armored dead soldiers whose palms were connected together were shocked, and the tight formation was immediately shaken apart.

Hidden among the many red-coated soldiers, Chen Sheng, who was just in front of the high mountain of corpses at the feet of these black-armored dead soldiers, seized the opportunity and jumped up.

With one move, he drew his sword to kill, and the sharp sword drew a round arc-shaped sword light across the throats of the two of them, swinging away two long narrow-edged knives that struck him from different angles!

After the sword's power was exhausted, he landed on a mountain of corpses piled up by the corpses of countless soldiers in red. As soon as he used his hands and feet to steady his body, he heard several sharp sounds of breaking through the air hitting him from different directions.

He was about to roll on the spot to avoid these attacks, when out of the corner of his eyes, he saw a figure fiercely rushing towards him from the right.

"Dang Dang Dang..."

As soon as Chen Sheng looked up, he saw Chen Shou brandishing a broad-bladed sword and parrying two long, narrow-bladed knives that were attacking him. He held his neck and roared with veins on his head: "Kill them to death!"

The burly figure with bulging muscles is like a mountain that protects you from the wind and rain!

"Intimidating!"

He bounced up with all his strength and stared at the black-armored soldier on the left who was holding a long knife and was about to stab him in the chest while Chen Shou was parrying the two long knives. He roared in his heart.

He threw him to the ground, pressed his knees on the chest of the stiff black-armored dead soldier, raised his upper body and swung his sharp sword across, forcing back several black-armored dead soldiers around who wanted to rush to rescue him.

.

When the blade of the sword turned around, it stabbed hard into the chest of the black-armored dead soldier beneath him, stirring it up with all his strength.

Dark red blood gushed out like spring water, and the body of the black-armored soldier who was struggling fiercely stiffened and quickly lost his breath.

He drew his sword and stood up. Just as he was about to turn around and fight again, he saw that he was surrounded by veterans of the Youzhou Army and uncles from the merchant Chen family.

Below, there are red-coated soldiers rushing up like a torrent.

He felt relieved.

The overall situation is decided!



"Squeak."

The heavy and majestic gate of the county guard's office slowly opened, and Chen Sheng, covered in blood and with disheveled hair, stepped inside holding a sword dripping with blood.

I saw a thin old man in plain clothes and a tall crown, sitting as steady as a mountain above the lobby. The low table in front of him was filled with all kinds of simple food pots.

He waved a pair of exquisite silver chopsticks and slowly brought the delicacies into his mouth, chewing them leisurely.

When Chen Sheng opened the door and came in, he didn't even raise his eyelids or look at Chen Sheng.

There was no one in the main hall, except for a tattered, old and delicate table with faded paint placed in the center.

There are three plates and a jar of wine placed on the low table.

A stack of steamed cakes, a stack of fat meat, a stack of corn rice, and a jar of millet wine.

Up and down, it's like drinking in pairs.

Chen Sheng only glanced at it, then turned back to Chen Shou and others behind him and said, "Dad, there is a secret passage in the county government office!"

Chen Shouxin understood, turned around, waved to the dense crowd of red-coated soldiers behind him, and led them away in a hurry.

Chen Sheng turned around, shook off the blood stains on his sword, put it back into its scabbard, then took off the sweat towel from his neck, and casually wiped the blood stains on his face and armor.

Then, surrounded by a group of veterans of the Youzhou Army, he strode into the hall and took his seat safely, "Master Sheriff, you are polite to me!"

He said he was polite, but his body was sitting cross-legged on the mat, not moving at all.

The thin old man in the hall finally raised his slack eyelids and looked at him condescendingly: "You have been busy for a long time and you haven't eaten yet? If you don't mind the food being rough, you might as well eat some first... Oh, I forgot, you guys eat on weekdays

It’s just these bad food, so how can it be considered rough?”

He seemed to have told a very funny joke, and he laughed "hem hum" halfway through. His brown but neat teeth, under the bright light, looked like an ogre that had walked out of a storybook.

.

"Actually!"

Chen Sheng raised the corner of his mouth and said with a leisurely smile: "I also think these foods are quite bad. They are hard and rough. They taste like chewing sand. However, when I think about there are many others out there, I can hardly even eat sand.

As a refugee, I think these foods are actually quite good. At least they are food that humans should eat...right?"

"Yes, yes!"

The thin old man in the hall laughed so hard that he couldn't breathe. He grabbed a neatly folded satin handkerchief from his desk and gently wiped the dirt at the corner of his mouth: "If there is no ugliness in the mud, how can Zhilan be so noble?"

"How can the beauty of jade be shown without the roughness of stone?"

"I think that the people who are gangsters should be made to lie on their backs in the mud, and the sons of merchants should be made to run around in the market."

"The four seasons have their order, and everything has its way."

"What do you think? The businessman Chen Jiazi?"

He looked at Chen Sheng in the hall with a smile.

Chen Sheng thought for a while and said: "I think what you said makes sense... But who should define who is a gangster and who is a son of a merchant? It can't be you, right? You can't do anything

Don’t put this gold on your face, you don’t deserve it!”

He also said with a smile.

The thin old man in the hall suddenly opened his eyes wide and said angrily: "Why don't I deserve it? I am a descendant of Emperor Gaoyang and the fortieth generation grandson of the former Marquis of Chu. To you and other gangsters and the sons of merchants, I am as unworthy as I am." On the nine-day day, why can't we decide who is a gangster and who is a merchant?"

Chen Sheng pointed at himself with a smile: "If you are worthy, why am I here!"

The smile on the face of the thin old man in the hall gradually disappeared. After a few breaths, he sneered softly and said disdainfully: "It is only when there are no heroes that Zhuzi can achieve success!"

After hearing this, Chen Sheng nodded seriously and said, "Yes, but in the final analysis, you are still not worthy!"

The thin old man:......

Timely.

An uncle from the Chen family quickly stepped inside, walked to Chen Sheng's side, and whispered in his ear: "Da Lang, we have found the secret passage, which leads directly to the outside of the city. Looking at the traces, we have been out of the city for about half an hour."

The implication is that I can't catch up...

Chen Sheng frowned slightly.

When the thin old man in the hall saw this, he immediately guessed what they were talking about.

He beat his chest like crazy in the hall and laughed loudly: "If you fall short of your efforts, you will fall short of your efforts. What's the use of the light of a grain of rice?"

"It's a failure."

Chen Sheng stood up slowly, drew out his long sword, and stepped forward slowly: "But you self-righteous nobles from aristocratic families are nothing more than in-laws, collateral relatives, etc., and you occupy the position of the governor of Chen County. When I was young, I was not afraid. Now that I have become a lost dog, do you think I will be afraid?"

He climbed up the steps step by step with his bloody long sword in advance, "If I were you, I would pray hard right now, and pray that my bastard sons will not come back to seek revenge, otherwise, the whole family will be reunited! "

He walked behind the emaciated old man and slowly raised his sharp sword.

The emaciated old man tried his best to turn around, raised his head to look at him, and asked: "If that day when you invited the thief Cao Tong, if I did not threaten you with the marriage, but just agreed to it, how could you and I return the favor?" Will that be the case?”

Chen Sheng thought about it seriously, shook his head and said, "Most likely not."

If the skinny old man had accepted his application for the post of Cao Cao that day, then in the previous round of purges, the skinny old man would have most likely classified the Chen family, a merchant, into the county government camp, and would not have treated him so early. Take action.

At that time, as a person with vested interests, and with his tendency to seek stability, he would most likely sit back and continue to accumulate strength through the convenience of his position as a thief.

Even if in the future, there may be conflicts with the Xiong family due to some unavoidable conflicts of interest, there is a high probability that they will use a more peaceful way to flex their muscles and gain benefits.

As soon as a look of regret appeared on the skinny old man's face, he heard Chen Sheng say again: "But you won't agree. If you do, then you are doomed!"

The skinny old man was stunned for a moment, then as if he suddenly realized something, he patted his thigh and laughed and said: "It's absolutely true, if Gu Ruo will agree to this, I will no longer be Gu, haha..."

"Pfft."

The sharp sword fell, and the wild laughter stopped abruptly. Douda's head rolled to the ground with a "dong" sound. After bouncing a few times, it went down the steps in front of him with "dong", "dong", "dong" It rolled down the hall.

Timely.

Chen Shou led the troops and escorted the two people into the hall. From a distance, he saw the headless corpses spurting blood in the hall and the heads falling down below. He was shocked and said: "How did you kill him!"

Chen Sheng wiped the blood on his face and said with a smile: "If I don't kill him, why don't I keep it for the New Year... Who are these two?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard one of the two being held in custody desperately shaking his long-haired head and howling miserably: "Da Lang, I am your Uncle Liu, I hugged you when you were a child...

…”

Chen Sheng frowned in displeasure.

When the man who howled miserably saw this, he stopped howling in an instant, straightened his body and said: "Your Majesty, Liu Ye, pay my respects to Young Master Sheng!"

His hands were tied behind his back and he couldn't bow, so he could only salute like this.

He finally figured out that the Chen family, a businessman, was the one who made the decision!

Even Chen Shou, a big fool, listens to his son!

The middle-aged man in red armor on the other side frowned and didn't even look at Chen Sheng.

Chen Sheng stared at the two of them intently for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled and said: "It turns out to be Liu Juncheng, Mr. Liu. Dad, haven't you and Mr. Liu been friends for many years? How can you treat Mr. Liu like this and quickly untie him?

!”

Chen Shou curled his lips, casually pulled out a knife from the waist of one of his brothers beside him, and cut the hemp rope that tied Liu Ye.

Chen Sheng looked at another middle-aged man wearing armor, and said with a smile: "As for this, he should be Mr. Zhou, the captain of Zhou County. It's better to see him after hearing for a long time. Mr. Zhou is really a tough man, well,

Since I was a child, I have admired heroes the most, and I hate to see heroes suffer humiliation the most. Since Mr. Zhou would rather die than give a good face to the Chen family, the merchant, then let’s fulfill Mr. Zhou’s unwavering loyalty...

Get out and chop it down!"

"Here!"

Several uncles from the Chen family responded loudly, pounced on him like wolves and tigers, and escorted the middle-aged man out.

Seeing that Chen Sheng's attitude didn't seem to be hypocritical, the middle-aged man took another look at the bloody head on the steps, and all the integrity in his heart immediately disappeared.

He opened his mouth and wanted to beg for mercy, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them out. He felt so anxious that he simply fell to his knees and knocked his head heavily on the ground.

Everyone around was dumbfounded... How wonderful!

The moment he knelt down.

The gorgeous system panel once again popped up from Chen Sheng's eyes, and the mountains, rivers, sun and moon pattern on the background of the panel once again shone with an earthy color.

But compared to the previous big move of killing Yingbu, which directly upgraded his talent, this time the earthy yellow light came quickly, as if it lacked stamina, it shined for two or three breaths and then went out.

He took a closer look and found that all the values ​​on the system panel had not changed at all!

There is no change at all!

Zhou Zhang?

Chen Sheng thought about this name in his heart, thinking that he shouldn't!

He just killed Xiong Wan with his own hands, just to upgrade his system again... Although he didn't remember what Xiong Wan had achieved in his previous life, but based on time, he should

It’s a certain King of Chu!

But in fact, killing Xiong Wan did not bring any abnormality to his system panel.

He could only attribute it to the fact that "King Chu Xiong Wan" and "King Zhang Chu Chen Sheng" were not from the same era.

In other words, Xiong Wan is a person who has died long ago.

But this Zhou Zhang...

Chen Sheng didn't have the slightest impression of him, but looking at this formation, he should be someone who has left a mark in history!

Moreover, there is a high probability that he is someone related to "Chen Sheng, King of Zhang Chu".

Because Zhou Zhang was just surrendering, not being killed by him.

Is it possible...

Like Wu Guang, this person was one of the generals of "Chen Sheng, King of Zhang Chu"?

Chen Sheng thought about it and felt that this was a great possibility!

After all, "Chen Sheng, King of Zhang Chu" had Chen County as his capital, and most of the generals he recruited were heroes from Chen County.

But history is history.

The present is the present.

People who have been taught many lessons by history no longer have any faith in the history in their own memories.

"Master Zhou, don't wrong yourself!"

Chen Sheng put away the system panel and said softly with a smile.

Zhou Zhang, who was still fighting for the ground with his head, replied angrily: "The defeated general truly surrendered to the eldest son, and the defeated general will not feel wronged!"

"very good!"

Chen Sheng waved his hand and said: "Dad, take Mr. Zhou to gather the Qianwu County soldiers who came back from the Li clan's land. Anyone who causes trouble will be killed without mercy!"

Chen Shou silently glanced at Chen Sheng, who was scolding Fang Qiu above, and without saying a word, he stepped forward, picked up Zhou Zhang who was still kneeling on the ground, turned around and walked out.

Chen Sheng smiled "hehe" and looked at Liu Ye: "Master Liu, I have something important to ask you!"

When Liu Ye heard this, he hurriedly bowed and said: "The eldest son has his orders, but the subordinate officials will do whatever they want!"

"very good!"

Chen Sheng nodded with satisfaction and said: "Then Sir Liu, go to the Li family for me and ask Mr. Li to come to the county office immediately to discuss matters!"

Liu Ye, who stuck his butt out high and maintained a bowing posture, neither dared to answer nor refuse.

Then continue to bow in place.

Chen Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly and said in a deep voice: "What? What Master Liu just said about 'doing everything' is a lie to me?"

Liu Ye hurriedly replied: "Back to the eldest son, I am not trying to shirk it because of the lower officials, but the chaos in the county has not been settled yet, so I am afraid that Mr. Li will not put himself in danger."

He said it very tactfully.

To put it bluntly, this is: If you people who kill officials and rebel are in Chen County, who would be stupid enough to come to your door to kill you?

"Oh, Mr. Liu is worrying too much!"

Chen Sheng raised his eyebrows and smiled, and his voice suddenly became much lighter: "You only need to bring this rebellious head that colludes with Taiping Dao. Guild Li will come..."

He walked down the steps, bent down and picked up Xiong Wan's dead head with an angry look, and handed it to Liu Ye's hands as if it were some kind of treasure.

Liu Ye held the head tremblingly and opened his mouth several times, but did not dare to spit out the word "no".

He no longer worries about whether Mr. Li will come or not.

He was worried about whether he would be able to come back.

Wear this head to invite people at home.
