"I know how to correct my attitude now, but it's already too late." Zhou Liang felt particularly relieved when he heard Cui Shuo begging for mercy. He said coldly, his eyes lingering on the skull rosary for a while, and there was a trace of reluctance.
Then he handed it back to Xia Yunjie.
Xia Yunjie took the skull rosary, held the golden skull rosary, and rubbed it gently with his two fingers.
He rubbed it gently, and the fire inside the rosary suddenly became strong, causing Cui Shuo to scream repeatedly. Zhou Liang, the county lieutenant in charge of the soldiers, was terrified, and looked at Xia Yunjie unconsciously.
There was a hint of awe in all of them.
He didn't think he was as capable as Xia Yunjie. He entered Cui Shuo's mansion and not only killed Yuwendu, but also sealed Cui Shuo into the skull rosary and refined it.
"Lord Zhou, I heard that Cui Shuo's eldest brother is the leader of the Withered Bones Sect. He has four great elixir-level immortal protectors, thirty-six flying bronze corpses, and disciples who are like a cloud of soldiers. Now I have killed Cui Shuo.
I wonder how Mr. Zhou Liang is going to handle this matter?" Xia Yunjie ignored Cui Shuo's screams and asked while rubbing the rosary and looking at Zhou Liang.
Seeing Xia Yunjie mentioning the leader of the Withered Bone Sect, Zhou Liang's face suddenly darkened, and he pondered for a long time before saying: "The old demon Cui Yan is indeed very powerful. If he knows that we have killed Cui Shuo, he will definitely not give up. Now
The matter must be reported to the county magistrate so that we can prepare in advance."
The word "we" made it clear that Zhou Liang's position was on Xia Yunjie's side. This made Xia Yunjie secretly nod, knowing that Zhou Liang still had some courage and responsibility this time, and would not be in a hurry just because the Withered Bone Sect was so powerful.
Keep yourself clear.
"Thank you, sir. I will obey your orders in all my humble duties." Since Zhou Liang was willing to take on the responsibility, Xia Yunjie naturally continued to abide by his duty as a captain of thousands and said to Zhou Liang, otherwise he would have to go through more twists and turns.
"Okay, with a tiger general like you here, even if the old devil Cui Yan comes, I will definitely tell him to get no advantage." Zhou Liang saw that although Xia Yunjie had the strength to kill Cui Shuo, he was not proud at all.
He liked it very much in his heart. He nodded repeatedly and praised Xia Yunjie. Then, with a hint of embarrassment on his face, he asked: "Master Xia, Cui Shuo has quite a bit of property in the county. Since this person is you,
Killed, what do you think should be done with his property?"
At this moment, although Xia Yunjie was now just a commander under his command, Zhou Liang did not dare to act like a county captain anymore, and wanted to call Xia Yunjie "Master Xia".
"Everything is at your discretion!" Xia Yunjie said without hesitation, clasping his fists.
Xia Yunjie has the Immortal Mountain in his hand, but he doesn't like Cui Shuo's wealth. However, for Zhou Liang, this is a huge fortune, and he is naturally concerned about it. In fact, Zhou Liang is willing to share the responsibilities for Xia Yunjie, except that he is a
In addition to being a somewhat responsible officer, the reason is also partly due to the huge industrial wealth under Cui Shuo's name.
As the saying goes, people die for money and birds die for food. Zhou Liang originally thought that Xia Yunjie would definitely argue with him on this matter, and he had already thought of some excuses. For example, if the Withered Bones Cult attacked, he would need to spend huge sums of money to recruit troops.
, and also needed to obtain the support of the county magistrate and the county magistrate, and also needed to go out evenly, etc. However, Zhou Liang never expected that Xia Yunjie would go so far and directly said, "Everything is at your discretion."
For a moment, Zhou Liang couldn't help but feel elated with joy, seeing how Xia Yunjie liked it.
"Okay, okay, don't worry, I won't treat you badly." Zhou Liang patted Xia Yunjie on the shoulder and said.
"Thank you, sir. I'll leave the Cui Mansion matters to you. It's the first day for a new official to take office. He's not even familiar with his soldiers yet, but he has to go back quickly so that he can familiarize himself with the affairs of the military camp as soon as possible." Xia Yunjie said, cupping his fists.
"Go, go." Seeing that Xia Yunjie had completely let go of the matter, Zhou Liang was naturally happy and nodded with a smile.
So Xia Yunjie got on the horse again, hugged Captain Zhang Ming, and then called the three centurions who came with Zhou Liang, and left the Cui Mansion together.
"This Xia Yunjie is not simple! He was able to kill Cui Shuo and Yuwendu with one person. With such strength, even the county magistrate is probably no more than this. Fortunately, Yingxian Guan persuaded him to join me.
Otherwise, we might have another unruly force in Qianxi County. Now it has greatly increased the strength of our county government." Looking at Xia Yunjie's back as he galloped away, Zhou Liang was filled with emotion and happiness.
"That's true, but the power of the Withered Bone Sect is not trivial. Are you really prepared to fight with the Withered Bone Sect over this Xia Yunjie?" Zhang Ming's face was a bit solemn and worried.
"If not, do you want me to capture this Xia Yunjie and give it to Cui Yan Lao Mo? If this is the case, where is the majesty of my government? Who will fear my government in the future?" Zhou Liang said solemnly.
"Being humble doesn't mean that. What being humble means is that it's better to persuade Xia Yunjie to leave Qianxi County. In this way, even if Cui Yan wants to take revenge, he won't be able to find us." Zhang Ming said.
"Xia Yunjie is new here, and he dares to kill Cui Mansion for a centurion woman he has just met. He is a county lieutenant in Qianxi County. He is protected by a tall and solid city wall and has tens of thousands of soldiers.
Don’t you even have the courage to defend yourself against the enemy? Let’s not talk about this anymore.” Zhou Liang said with a calm face and waved his hands.
Zhang Ming opened his mouth, but finally closed it.
Seeing that Zhang Ming no longer tried to persuade him, Zhou Liang calmed down a little and stormed into the Cui Mansion with his men and horses.
…
To the west of the city, is the military camp under Xia Yunjie's jurisdiction.
The soldiers saw the centurion leading the way back with seven centurions, and among them there was an extra delicate woman. Who is Luo Yu, not Centurion Zheng Xuan's woman?
For a moment, the entire military camp was shocked and excited.
They all thought that the newly appointed commander, Zheng Xuan and others would shed a layer of skin even if they did not die. As for Miss Luo Yu, they did not dare to think about it at all.
Can they still rescue Luo Yu from Cui Shuo?
But now? Not only did the captain and the others come back safe and sound, but even Miss Luo Yu came back with them. How is this possible? This was completely beyond their expectations!
However, when centurion Deng Ling told the soldiers with pride and excitement that the centurion had killed Cui Shuo and Yuwendu with one person, the soldiers seemed to be listening to a book from heaven and could not recover for a long time. Waiting for them
When they realized what was going on, they all couldn't help but tremble all over.
Cui Shuo, Yu Wendu, are the immortal-level powerhouses who are famous throughout the county. One of them is a fairy-level immortal, and they are the same level of powerhouses as their county captains! But now, they are newly appointed by them.
