"Boss! My little brother died unjustly! Do you want to avenge him?"
As soon as he fell into the county captain's yard, Niu Dabao burst into tears and howled loudly.
Suddenly, the lights in several houses in the yard turned on, and several officials walked out of their rooms while fastening their belts.
"Fuck! It's already midnight, Niu Dabao, what's your name?"
"Brothers, my little brother was killed. My little brother died a miserable death."
Niu Dabao said, releasing his brother's body, and everyone was shocked when they saw it.
"what happened?"
Before anyone could say anything, the main room lit up and the door opened. County Lieutenant Shi Haoren walked out with a cold face.
As soon as he appeared, all the officials' expressions immediately tightened. They all looked respectful and saluted with clasped fists.
"Phew! What a sharp swordsmanship? How did he die?"
Shi Haoren didn't need to check. His consciousness flashed through him and he had already found out clearly the cause of Niu Erbao's death.
"My brother and I recently received a report from the head of Lijia Village that a person of unknown origin has appeared in their village."
"Lijiacun? If the origin is unknown, it's worth it. You go to the small mountain village to check? I think you are ripping off people, right?"
As soon as Niu Dabao finished speaking, an official said with a cold expression of dissatisfaction.
This man is called Li Da. He has always disliked the style of the Niu brothers. Now that Niu Erbao is dead, he is too late to be happy.
"Li Da! What do you mean?"
When Niu Dabao was interrupted by Li Da, his expression turned cold. He had already disliked Li Da. If he hadn't felt that he couldn't beat this man, he would have fought with him in a duel.
"Don't argue, let's talk about business first."
Shi Haoren's face turned cold, and immediately Li Da and Niu Dabao did not dare to say anything more.
"The head of Lijia Village reported that a person of unknown origin came to the village. The most important thing is that this person's name is...Wang Tao."
"Also called Wang Tao?"
Shi Haoren's face turned cold, and Li Da also looked surprised.
"This man has been secretly recuperating in the village for a year. We suspected that this man was the person the higher-ups were looking for, so we brought people to the door for questioning."
"Who knew that the news about our door-to-door inspection was leaked, and this person packed up his things and ran away in advance. At that time, my brother and I split up to stop him... Oh! If I had known better, I would have changed directions with my brother..."
"Huh! Change direction? You are the one lying here today."
Shi Haoren's face darkened, and suddenly his body gave off a powerful aura. The terrifying strength in the early stage of foundation building came out of his body, scaring all the Qi Practitioners into silence.
"The way your brother died was either because he was completely defenseless, or because the enemy was too powerful, and his defense had no effect at all. So the person who could kill him was either far stronger than him, or..."
"What else?"
"Either it was an acquaintance who committed the crime. If I hadn't known that you and your brother had a good relationship, I would have almost mistakenly thought that you killed your brother."
Shi Haoren stared at Niu Dabao with cold eyes. The latter's face changed drastically. He was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, shouting that he was wronged.
"Get up, that's all I said. According to you, you were no longer around your brother after his death. What happened next?"
"Later I found my brother. There was a pool of blood at the scene, and part of the package named Wang Tao. My brother's body was lying on the ground, completely dead."
"Besides your brother, who else is there?"
Shi Haoren's eyes flashed.
"My lord, there is also a little widow, Wang Tao, who was taken in by this man."
"That little widow must be pretty, right?"
When Li Da heard what Niu Dabao said, he said with a sarcastic expression.
"What...what do you mean? You want to fight."
Niu Dabao looked ugly and stared at Li Da coldly.
"Shut up. If you have any grudges, go to the ring to resolve them. It doesn't matter whether you live or die."
Shi Haoren's face turned cold. Based on his understanding of Niu Dabao, he probably understood what happened.
The Niu brothers were promiscuous, arrogant and domineering. They always liked to take advantage of opportunities to blackmail them, and they must have been killed for this reason.
"I understand, please step back! I will report this matter to the government."
Shi Haoren said as he took out a jade pendant from his arms and slowly walked towards the main hall.
Since this expert can easily kill Niu Erbao, who is at the third level of Qi training, I guess even he is no match for that person.
Of course, if that person is a powerful person in the golden elixir realm, this matter cannot be pursued, and the official will not offend a golden elixir powerful person for the sake of Niu Erbao.
So he didn't want to really investigate the mysterious person, but wanted to conduct an in-depth investigation on the person named Wang Tao.
After recuperating for a year, he ran away when he saw an official official. It is impossible to say that he is really the person the superiors are looking for, and it is unknown.
The mission to find Wang Tao was announced a year ago, and even for the person whose name is Wang Tao, he would rather kill the wrong person than let him go.
Once you find Wang Tao that the official needs, even if it is just information, the reward will be extremely generous.
Now looking at the whole Zhou Dynasty, not only the official is looking for Wang Tao, but many organizations and hired freelancers are also looking for Wang Tao everywhere.
"yes!"
Only when the county captain walked away did Niu Dabao dare to stand up.
"How about it? My Lord proposes that you and I go to the ring. Do you dare to accept the challenge?"
Li Da asked reluctantly.
"Hmph! I admit that I can't beat you, but don't be arrogant. One day I will let you kneel in front of me."
Niu Dabao glanced at Li Da coldly, then put away his brother's body and jumped into the air. It seemed that he was going home to bury his brother.
Judging from the intentions of the county captain, it seems that he does not intend to pursue the person who killed his brother.
But after thinking about it for a moment, he understood.
The official just doesn't want to cause trouble for his brother.
Humph! A bunch of snobbish bitches.
Niu Dabao's face was full of dissatisfaction, but there was nothing he could do.
Since the powerful official who instantly killed his brother didn't want to offend him, he could only let go of his hatred. As for the man named Wang Tao, he would never let him go.
"Wang Tao? When I find you, I will cut you into pieces."
The county government did not dare to offend the mysterious man, and Niu Dabao did not dare to offend him even more, so he had no choice but to vent his anger on Wang Tao.
"Ah sneeze!"
Wang Tao walked for most of the night and was really tired and sleepy. His eyesight was not good and he couldn't see very far, so he missed several inns.
It's dark and cold at night. Where can we rest in the wilderness?
Wang Tao sneezed and walked heavily.
"Hey! Is there a ruined temple?"
Wang Tao vaguely saw a ruined wall among the dilapidated mountains.
He followed the path towards the dilapidated building not far away. Sure enough, not far away, he saw a ruined temple with a corner collapsed.
Go in and rest for a while, eat something and drink some water, and then leave tomorrow!
Wang Tao made up his mind and pushed open the broken door. Dust filled the ground.
He picked some branches to make a broom, cleared a large open space, then spread some leaves and lay on it.
Looking back on the past, he sighed with regret.
His luck was bad and his life was full of misfortunes. The strange experiences he experienced in his life were simply unimaginable.
Alas! It’s useless to think too much! Why dwell on the past.
Time keeps moving forward and never looks back.
The past me is completely dead, the future me has not yet arrived, and the only thing I am sure alive is this moment.
"Live in the moment, do nothing but do something."
