"Wha, what? Why is this little beast so powerful?" The fat bandit who was the most arrogant before saw his companions being killed. His eyes widened in shock and showed an unbelievable look. Most people can't help but judge people by their appearance.
The problem was that he just judged Zhao Zheng's strength based on visual inspection, so he didn't take such a young man seriously. But once he took action, he realized that he was wrong, and it was a big mistake. Zhao Zheng showed it
Its strength far exceeded his imagination, and even exceeded the limit that he could evaluate.
Controlling several swords to kill people in the air, how many levels of heavenly warriors can this be accomplished?
As surprised as the fat bandit were the other bandits. The expressions on their faces also changed dramatically. Each of them opened their mouths enough to stuff the eggs in.
The fierceness on Zhao Zheng's body was in sharp contrast to the astonishment of the bandits. His goal was extremely clear, without any hesitation, and would not be interfered by any external objects. While many bandits were surprised, his offensive did not
Slow it down even a little bit, it's still as fast as lightning and as fierce as an angry tiger.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
The eight swords rubbed against each other, making a sound of piercing the air, and attacked the bandits at a cunning and ruthless angle, just like a tiger entering a pack of wolves, and launched a ruthless killing. The sword blade cut off the heads and limbs of each one, causing
The bodies of the bandits were split into two or even three, and the severed parts flew out dripping with blood, and then fell to the ground.
Yesterday, Wujiacun was a purgatory.
Today, Wujiacun is still a purgatory!
The difference is that yesterday was purgatory for the villagers and today is purgatory for the bandits.
"ah!!!"
"My arm! My arm!"
"It's a tough idea, this guy is so scary!"
The bandits let out bursts of screams. The injured fell on their backs, and the uninjured were so frightened that they stayed on the spot. Those who reacted quickly even thought of retreating and trying to escape.
"If God doesn't repay me, I will repay you, and you will all die today!" Zhao Zhengqing shouted, clenched his palms into finger gestures, and waved forward vigorously, like a general on the battlefield, commanding the eight swords to continue killing.
The sword, which was originally exhausted, regained its vitality under this finger, regained its previous tyrannical power, burst out with dazzling golden light, and flew towards the bandits who were still alive one after another. This time, more bandits fell.
Mold, including the fat bandit. His arrogant words before clearly angered Zhao Zheng, paving the way for his tragic death. As many as three swords flew towards him, above, middle, and bottom.
The three roads cut him into three parts.
The blood, limbs and fat that spilled from the fat flew together and fell to the ground, smearing it into the most ugly picture in the world.
As a knight, I want to eradicate these remnants of evil that are causing harm to the world and create ugly scenes like this.
It is precisely because of having clean courage that we can face these ugliness without being polluted.
The killing was over. Blood rained on the ground. Only three of the bandits who were still alive and kicking before were now left. It was not that Zhao Zheng was merciful, nor was it a mistake. It was that he deliberately left three alive so that
He asked for the news he wanted to know. Although his chest was filled with rage like an erupting volcano and murderous intent as cold as ice, he was not overwhelmed by these emotions and remained rational.
It is far better to leave a few alive than to kill them all.
The eight swords formed a ring, surrounding the three remaining bandits to prevent them from escaping. The three looked at the golden sword in front of them, feeling the cold murderous intent coming towards their faces, and they all stood up in fear.
At the same place, one of the poor people was so frightened that he peed his pants.
Zhao Zheng, who had some blood sprayed on his face, slowed down and walked toward the three bandits step by step. His steps seemed to be stepping on the hearts of the three bandits. Every step he took made the three bandits' hearts beat with fear.
"I ask, and you answer. If you don't answer, you will die. If you lie, you will die. Do you understand?" Zhao Zheng asked slowly and briefly, his voice colder than the cold winter wind, penetrating directly into the bones and souls of the three bandits.
In times of crisis, people seem to react a little faster than usual. The three of them nodded quickly, especially the bandit who peed his pants.
"I just heard your conversation. It seems that you not only attacked this village, but also attacked other villages. Is that true?" Zhao Zhenghan asked in a cold voice.
"Yes, the leader of the village gave an order and sent out many brothers to attack the surrounding villages at the same time. Wujia Village is just one of them. Apart from Wujia Village..." One of the bandits quickly answered, and the rest
Several affected villages also spoke out.
Although I have not seen the other villages with my own eyes, I think the situation should be similar to that of Wujiacun. These villages should have been destroyed.
How many people will die?
How many villagers will have their families destroyed?
Zhao Zheng is unknown.
Next, he asked other important questions, such as the reason why the leader of Yuezhao Mountain ordered the attack on the village, the strength of Yuezhao Mountain, and Yuezhao Mountain's next target, etc.
The three bandits answered one by one, but they were just gangsters. Their knowledge of the situation was actually very limited, and sometimes they couldn't answer even if they wanted to.
Through the oral accounts of these three bandits, Zhao Zheng asked for most of the information he wanted to know.
Not long ago, Tianluo Kingdom sent an envoy to visit Yuezhao Mountain, and delivered four large boxes of treasures, and also presented a letter with unknown content in public. This incident indirectly proved that Yuezhao Mountain's abnormal behavior was related to
They are related to the Tianluo Kingdom. If you say there is nothing fishy between the two, you won't even believe it.
As for the strength of Yuezhao Mountain, Zhao Zheng already knew it. He asked again just to confirm it further and to test whether the bandits dare to lie.
There are five village masters in Yuezhao Mountain. The master of Dazhai is named Zou Tianjin. The other four village masters also have their own names and different levels of abilities. The master of Dazhai, Zou Tianjin, can only be said to be mediocre in terms of martial arts.
He was promoted to the position of village leader because of other reasons, not just relying on force.
Before that, Yuezhao Mountain was not a mountain village, but an ordinary mountain. It belonged to Zou Tianjin's private property. Later, Zou Tianjin recruited soldiers and horses on the mountain for various purposes. He attracted a group of warriors to work for him, and this formed an iron barrel.
A village like that. In addition, Zou Tianjin, as his name suggests, has a beautiful mind and a brilliant literary talent. He is quite good in this aspect. This is one of the important reasons why he can become the leader of the village.
As for the remaining four village leaders, they all followed the path of martial arts. Each one was stronger than the other, and there were even some ninth-level heavenly warriors, which was very difficult.
Yuezhao Mountain's plan this time was obviously premeditated. Looting several surrounding villages was just the first step. Next, it would expand the scope of the attack and attack villages farther away, and even a nearby village called "Jiji".
"Yuanzhen" town. As for who to attack first and who to attack later, the minions in these strongholds did not know and could not tell.
The current situation is quite serious. Several surrounding villages and towns are in a precarious state. Zhao Zheng's strength alone is simply not enough to defend so many places. He must join forces with the local government and officers and soldiers.
Zhao Zheng thought about it for a while. After making some calculations, he decided to go to "Jiyuan County" to take the three bandits to the government office and meet with the government officials to see if they could reach a consensus. As for Xiao Douding's mother and daughter,
He could only let it go for the time being. After all, things had to be prioritized. He had to put the overall situation first. He thought that if Xiao Douding and his daughter lived in the basement, there wouldn't be any big problems. Even if the bandits came again, they wouldn't find them.
There's no need to worry too much.
"The three of you each ride on a horse and follow me to Jiyuan County. Remember not to play any tricks on the way. If there is any change, don't blame my ruthless sword." Zhao Zheng gave a cold order and handed the three men over.
A horse that had not run far was captured and given to the three bandits to ride.
Now that these three people had no choice but to be slaughtered by others, they dared to talk nonsense and got on the horse obediently.
Zhao Zheng did not ride a horse, but used Qinggong. He and Abao escorted the three bandits and rushed to Jiyuan County together.
Halfway through, one of the bandits saw Zhao Zheng showing his back. He had evil thoughts and took out a hidden weapon, a dart. His intention was self-evident. But before he could hit the dart out, he was struck by a sword.
His throat was cut and he fell to the ground. From the beginning to the end, Zhao Zheng didn't even bother to look back, he was always tired on the road.
When the remaining two bandits saw this, they learned their lesson completely and did not dare to have any more evil thoughts.
After rushing for more than an hour, Zhao Zheng and his party finally arrived at Jiyuan County.
This is the largest county in the local area, but it is not particularly big. It can only be said to be average. There is not even a city wall around it, which is much worse than Qibao County. It is absolutely wishful thinking to expect such a small county to compete with Yuezhao Mountain.
, but there is no other better option at the moment. Before attracting a large number of troops or heroes, we can only rely on the officers and soldiers in this county to provide emergency relief.
Zhao Zheng asked passers-by where the Yamen was located, escorted the two bandits and rushed there. Following the procedure of reporting to the officials, he beat drums at the Yamen gate to complain.
The two government officials immediately came forward to inquire. Zhao Zheng informed the two bandits of their intention and called them over. The two government officials were startled when they heard this. They looked at each other in fear, then ran back to the government office to inform them of the incident.
The county magistrate.
Such a big commotion in Yuezhao Mountain has already alarmed the far-off counties, causing panic among the local people and soldiers. Therefore, the fact that Zhao Zheng captured the bandits is really a major event that cannot be ignored by the local government.
The county magistrate soon sent someone to invite Zhao Zheng into the lobby. The government officials on both sides were beating water and fire sticks and reciting powerful words, which was quite solemn and solemn. The county magistrate was sitting on the chair at this time, slapped the alarm, and rushed
Looking at Zhao Zheng, he asked: "Who is down there?"
"Your Excellency, a commoner named Zhao Zheng passed by Wujia Village yesterday and was very surprised to see corpses scattered all over the village. He asked a survivor about the incident and learned from his mouth that he was walking in the moonlight.
The bandits on the mountain did it. I have martial arts skills and am well versed in the teachings of drawing out a sword to help when the road is rough, so I stayed in the village and waited for the bandits to come again to commit crimes. The bandits on Yuezhao Mountain were indeed domineering. Just one day later,
I came to Wujiacun again to commit murder. I was so angry that I killed several bandits and captured two alive. I came here to deliver them to the government for your decision." Zhao Zheng clasped his fists and answered loudly.
.
The two bandits had been punished and were now kneeling at Zhao Zheng's feet, not even daring to breathe.
The county magistrate stroked his beard, stared at the two bandits with squinted eyes, and asked: "Are you two bandits from Yuezhao Mountain?"
The two bandits said yes obediently and did not dare to play tricks.
"You haven't told your lord what you know yet." Zhao Zheng shouted in a deep voice.
The two bandits shrank in fright and repeated what they had said to Zhao Zheng before. They no longer had the arrogance they had when they robbed homes. The information they shared must be very useful to the government.
After the county magistrate heard this, he fell into silence and quickly stroked the mustache on his chin, not knowing what he was thinking.
Zhao Zheng had a plan in mind, and without being polite to the county magistrate, he directly suggested: "Sir, the situation in several surrounding villages is very bad. And the local government is unable to compete with Yuezhao Mountain. In my opinion, we should send troops as soon as possible now
They sent troops to ask for help, and sent people to temporarily bring people from several villages to the county to stay temporarily to prevent these villagers from being poisoned by bandits. These bandits were so arrogant that they dared to commit crimes in broad daylight.
Kill people. I am willing to sneak into Yuezhao Mountain alone tonight to teach them a little lesson. To dampen their spirits and let them know how powerful they are. Although this will not severely damage Yuezhao Mountain, I think it can also play a role in shaking the mountain and shaking the tiger.
, let them restrain themselves and divert their attention."
But all the local people know how powerful the bandits in Yuezhao Mountain are. Everyone is afraid of them like tigers. Everyone was a little surprised when they heard that Zhao Zheng sounded so arrogant and claimed that he wanted to break into Yuezhao Mountain alone.
He cast a surprised look.
In this hall, the one with the highest martial arts skills and the most extensive knowledge is the head catcher standing next to the county magistrate. This man is a middle-aged man, tall and strong, with a square face.
He asked Zhao Zheng: "This young hero, from your tone, he should have some skills. I wonder how far he has cultivated to the next level?"
"Eighth Heaven." Zhao Zheng replied simply.
"Eighth Heaven? So powerful?" The head catcher took a breath of air, and his face suddenly brightened. He obviously didn't expect Zhao Zheng to have such a level of cultivation, "No wonder you dare to say such crazy things, and want to break into Yuezhao Mountain alone."
"I have been wandering around the world for some years, and I am somewhat famous. Thanks to the favor of my friends in the world, I was given the nickname Rising Sun. I once participated in the competition for the Zichu Sword, and won the Zichu Sword in one fell swoop. Later.
I joined the Taishan Sect and helped the Taishan Sect settle the grievances it had had with the Three Sword Sect for many years." Zhao Zheng further revealed his identity. The reason why he said these things was not to show off, but to gain the approval and trust of the Yamen.
.
In this situation, he must reveal his identity. Only in this way can his words have weight. Otherwise, the yamen will only treat him as a brave man who does what is right and his words will be airy.
"I remembered, it turns out that you are the Zhao Zheng who captured the Zichu Sword and defeated Zhuo Hongri, the leader of the Three Sword Sect!" The catcher's eyes lit up, he thought about it, walked around the table, and walked quickly towards
He reached out to Zhao Zheng, stretched out his calloused hands, grabbed Zhao Zheng's hand, and shook it hard twice, showing great respect, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't expect to meet him in such a remote place."
A young hero like you."
The shadows of famous trees are shining with gold wherever celebrities go. In ancient times, the news was blocked and the speed of spreading news was very slow. Zhao Zheng's great destruction of the Sun and Moon Palace, the killing of Kong Yunjie, and the rescue of Princess Zhaoli have not yet spread here.
.If the catcher in front of him knew these things, his respect for Zhao Zheng would have to be taken to a higher level.
The government officials on both sides were half of the world, and they often gossiped about what was happening in the world. They all had heard about Zhao Zhengjun. Today, when they saw Zhao Zheng himself, all the government officials seemed a little excited, and they all unconsciously
He moved closer, wanting to get close to Zhao Zhengtao.
"So you are the Rising Sun. Zhao Zheng, I have heard about you. You are really a promising young man."
"Is that the Zichu sword hanging on your waist? Tsk tsk, this sword is really beautiful."
"Is this Zi Chujian? Today I finally opened my eyes."
The officials all held their own opinions, and the scene was somewhat chaotic.
When the county magistrate saw this, he felt a little outrageous. He coughed twice and knocked on the gavel gently, which silenced the noise in the lobby.
"Shaoxia Zhao, thank you for your generous help this time. You killed several bandits and captured two bandits and sent them here. On behalf of the people of this country, I would like to express my respect to you. As for the suggestions you gave me before, I
The magistrate will also consider it carefully." The county magistrate changed his title when he spoke, and his tone became more polite, losing his previous official airs.
"More than just thinking about it, I also hope that you can take action immediately. You have also heard what these two people said just now. Yuezhao Mountain may attack the surrounding villages at any time, and may even attack this town. If you don't act more quickly, please
If so, I'm afraid it will be too late." Zhao Zheng said reluctantly.
"Young Master Zhao, in fact, I have already taken action. Before you came here, I had already sent two groups of people. I asked one group to rush to the 'Iron Gate Pass' to move troops to seek help, and asked the other group to stay in the town.
Strengthen the guard. With my little power as a county magistrate, this is all I can do. If you force me to do other things, I'm afraid I will be unable to do anything. After all, if you search the entire Jiyuan County,
I will never find another warrior as good at fighting as you." The county magistrate explained.
"What about the evacuation of other villages?"
"This matter..." The county magistrate looked embarrassed, "I didn't do it. After all, the county's manpower is limited. There are only a few hundred government officials. It's good to be able to defend the county. There is no spare power to protect those villages.
"
"Even if we can't protect them, we should send people to evacuate the villagers, so that they can leave their hometowns as soon as possible and rush to a larger county, or to this county." Zhao Zheng suggested.
The county magistrate obviously didn't intend to do this before, so he opened his mouth to refute, but when he saw Zhao Zheng's sharp and sword-like expression, he swallowed back his words and said vaguely: "Okay. Just follow the instructions.
If you want to do it, I will send people to deliver messages to several villages that have not yet been poisoned, asking the villagers there to evacuate and relocate as soon as possible."
Zhao Zheng nodded with satisfaction and had nothing else to say.
At this moment, the sound of drumming sounded again at the yamen gate, and no one knew who sounded the "drum of injustice." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian.com to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. You
