Chapter 22 What does their life and death have to do with me?
Chapter 22 What does their life and death have to do with me?
The cock crows.
Chen Xiu slowly stopped his power, and a touch of rich purple energy dissipated from his cheeks.
As he raised his hand, a thick and dense fire breath emerged. He smiled lightly and said: "It is indeed the "Purple Cloud Magic Skill". It is as soft as clouds, extremely strong and strong, and the simple and condensed inner energy is far better than the "Blood Knife Skill".
.”
Walking in the alleys of the outer city, Chen Xiu frowned slightly.
The rich scent of incense fills every corner.
The fluttering soul-calling flags fluttered in the wind, looking increasingly dilapidated and lonely.
The three-layer mage's platform stands in the center, enshrining the Bodhisattva who has transcended the souls of "hell". The gilded light is particularly dazzling.
Under the stage, there was an old man with a hungry face and ragged clothes, kowtowing his head and reciting sutras almost numbly, as if he was crazy.
In front of them, there are white rice and noodles offered in pious offerings!!
There were even government officials among them, all of them with wild eyes!
"The world of mortals is like a prison, and all living beings suffer"
"There is a god descending from heaven to show mercy to us."
Familiar and empty Dharma chants, accompanied by sandalwood, candlelight, talisman water, and burning paper money, filled Chen Xiu's eyes.
"All the government officials in the imperial court have fallen. Is Wu Sheng Cult already so powerful?"
Chen Xiu's eyes narrowed slightly.
As a result of the chaos in the world, religion gathered the hearts of the people and collected food and grass.
The heart of it is self-evident.
The edge of the city.
The ancient city gate slammed shut.
Chen Xiu's footsteps then stagnated.
He looked around and slowly placed his thumb on the handle of the knife. He sneered and said, "The Wusheng Cult is very courageous. As an official of the imperial court, how dare you block my way?"
Unexpectedly, he was already under siege.
Although they are all poor people, their eyes are quite fanatical.
Wusheng disciples!
"Sir, you made me wait, it's so hard to find. The general trend is like this, why are you so resistant, our Wusheng Sect is in line with the people's hearts." The Taoist priest in blue shirt and white crown paced, walking among the sea of people.
It's quite a bit playful.
snort.
Chen Xiu sneered and said lightly: "Your Excellency, please come back. The only thing in Chen Xiu's heart is the imperial court!"
"Sir, those who know the current affairs are heroes. You cannot stop the general trend of the world and the aspirations of the people."
The Taoist priest spoke with a half-smile, and the threat was self-evident.
"What does the general trend of the world have to do with me? I only know that you are not worthy of standing in my way!"
Chen Xiu sneered, and the Yanling sword in his hand suddenly came out of its sheath!
A low strong wind passed by, cutting out a cold light.
"The same goes for Mr. Zhang's arrest." The young man smiled proudly, and opened the fine iron feather fan with some regret: "It's a pity that we didn't take his head and let him escape."
"Sir, I advise you to think twice."
Chen Xiu's eyes narrowed slightly, and a touch of surprise appeared on his cheeks: "Mr. Zhang's arrest, was it actually you who hurt him?"
"If he is willing to be obedient and cooperate with us, why should he suffer the physical pain?"
The young man spoke with a half-smile, and carelessly fiddled with the slender fan bones: "Mr. Chen, I remember that you have a sister, right? If you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your family, right?"
As he spoke, a hint of threat flashed across his face: "Not to mention Third Master Bao's mansion, there are also our people in that big black prison!"
Stab——
The Yanling knife cut across the ground, leaving a deep mark.
"Live well, isn't it? Why do you have to force me to kill you?"
Chen Xiu's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he slashed out with the Yanling Saber in his hand.
The young man still had a smile on his face and remained unmoved.
Pfft——
A touch of blood spilled out.
Chen Xiu's eyes suddenly turned cold and he slowly drew the knife.
The old man, stained with blood, knelt down with difficulty, and hugged Chen Xiu with his bloody hands, his eyes still full of fanaticism!
"You actually asked them to block the knife for you? No wonder Zhang Yunshan lost! It's a good idea."
Chen Xiu sneered, his murderous intent unabated!
"It is their duty and their honor to die for the sake of righteousness and for our people. After death, they will be saved by the Inanimate Mother, and the lotus messengers will guide them, and they will arrive in the Paradise of Paradise as soon as possible."
There was something sacred on the young man's face, and he opened his palm, revealing a round pill.
The shape of an insect is vaguely visible.
insanity!
"Sir, if you don't join us, then you won't be able to go anywhere today."
The young man said, showing a strange and pleading smile: "Of course, sir, you can also choose to kill everyone here. As long as you, sir, you can do it."
"Or, you are not afraid of being wanted by the court!"
As he spoke, Chen Xiu felt an inexplicable tightening of his ankles.
He leaned over slightly and saw a ragged child grabbing his boots like a wild beast!
The little hands covered with mud held a piece of blunt iron and stabbed him fiercely in the lower abdomen!!
锔——
Chen Xiu slashed slightly, his eyes becoming colder and indifferent.
"Haha, sir, what do you think? This is an innocent child, are you embarrassed to do it? Can you bear it?"
The young man's eyes were full of jealousy and he had a somewhat sickly smile.
Click——
A trail of blood spurted out and splashed all over him.
The young man lowered his head in shock, and a head slowly rolled down.
The little body just fell in front of him.
Blood slowly overflowed.
"You, you, you! You actually don't care about their life or death? They are all good people of the Sui Dynasty!!"
The young man suddenly panicked and seemed a bit incoherent.
This guy actually took action!!
Chen Xiu wiped away the blood spattered on his face and slowly walked towards the young man.
Puff puff--
The light of the sword flashed past like snow, and blood instantly burst out.
Chen Xiu slowly stepped over one corpse after another, his eyes indifferent: "Since you have betrayed the imperial court, you are a traitor! As an official, you should kill thieves and eliminate rebellion!"
As he spoke, the long knife in his hand twirled slightly, and the last poor man fell into a pool of blood.
Even if it was only a hundred steps, there would already be a mountain of corpses behind him!
"I'm not Zhang Yunshan, I just want to live a good life, that's all! Since they are rebels, what does their life and death have to do with me?" Chen Xiu looked down at the young man.
The Yan Ling Saber in his hand suddenly lifted up and slashed down in the air!
锔——
Just like a peacock opening its tail, the fine iron feather fan exploded with great power.
The chaotic iron blades spread out, barely blocking the sword!
It’s actually a hidden weapon of the machine type!
Chen Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Save one by one's sword——"
A sharp roar sounded from a distance.
A sneer appeared on Chen Xiu's lips, and the Yanling Saber in his right hand suddenly turned and slashed out in the air.
Almost at the same time, the left palm turned over!
Ice Palm!
A cold and powerful chill breaks out!
boom!
The ice picks that penetrated the body bloomed, and messy blood flowers scattered all over the ground!
Chen Xiu slowly closed his palms, raised his eyes to look at the almost distorted old man in front of him, and murmured: "The aura is very weak. He is not young, and his energy and blood are not strong enough. He must be a pampered elder."
As he spoke, his left hand slowly dropped to his waist.
A red dagger slipped into the palm of his hand.
Now that you've seen it, I'm sorry.
Chen Xiu's eyes were cold and cold.
"My grandson!"
The old man approached the almost mutilated corpse almost tremblingly. There was hatred and bitterness on his old face. He raised his head and said, "You bastard, how dare you."
Before I could finish my words, a flash of pink covered the sky and blocked out the sun!
The old man suddenly screamed!
It’s actually lime and iron filings!
The next moment, an extreme chill enveloped his heart!
An extreme pain bloomed from my heart!
The blue dragon in your sleeve will kill you with one strike!
"Old guy, since you saw me slaughtering the poor, how can I leave you alive!"
Chen Xiu pulled out the red sword, looked around, and sighed: "Why do you have to force me to kill someone? Well, I have to act again."
"However, this old guy seems to be the elder of the Sky Eagle Gang."
"Oh, this is getting interesting."
Outside the city, on the side.
Thick bullock carts are parked on the roadside.
Zhou Wenlong stared at the suddenly closed city gate and said calmly: "Old veteran ghost, I will not pursue anything you want to do. But, don't delay my affairs!"
"Don't worry, sir, I will take care of everything for you."
Yuan Pingshan's words suddenly stopped.
The city gate slowly opened, and a figure covered in blood slowly walked out.
Chen Xiu!!
Yuan Pingshan's pupils shrank.
In his hands, he was holding two heads!
"I don't know which family's elder actually colluded with Wusheng Cult, killed innocent people indiscriminately, and harmed the poor. It is really a heinous crime." Chen Xiu said with a sneer and threw it away.
Two round heads landed at the feet of Yuan Pingshan.
