The four hundred and thirteenth chapter two bulls and horses
"What? Zhu Yu and others encountered bandits on the road and were robbed. You were stopped by the two gods Shoushan and Genyue near the capital. Were you unable to rescue them in time?"
Li Xiuyuan's expression changed immediately after hearing the news.m.
Zhu Yu went to the capital this time with an important responsibility, in order to buy an official position for Li Xiuyuan. Li Xiuyuan's recruitment of Xiuyuan to form an army was all based on having official positions, otherwise, his army would be a rebellion.
At present, the imperial court is like a centipede, and although it is extremely corrupt and stupid, rebellion will definitely lead to death.
Despite Li Liangjin's current power, in fact he could only show off his power in the Jiangnan area and could not fight all the way to the capital. More than half of the imperial army was in the north. Even if the fighting strength was weak, Li Liangjin would still be defeated.
"Tell me, what happened in the end? Were Zhu Yu and the others killed?" Li Xiuyuan asked with a heavy face.
The sword-wielding ghost king knelt on the ground and said hurriedly: "This kid doesn't know that when the kid met the two mountain gods, he was no match for the mountain god. The mountain god held a mountain-suppressing sword and killed the kid five to six hundred times with one sword.
After years of practice, the little ghost had no choice but to retreat quickly and report the matter to the young master. He did not dare to stay near the capital, otherwise the little ghost would not be able to come back if he was caught up by the mountain god again. "
Li Xiuyuan glanced at him.
This sword-wielding ghost king was not lying. He was indeed seriously injured, and his moral skills had fallen to the level of a ghost general, and he was no longer a ghost king.
"Are there still such powerful mountain gods guarding the capital? It seems that the power of this court is not exhausted yet. There are still ghosts and gods guarding it. However, these two mountain gods should never stop the sword-wielding ghost king and look at Zhu Yu helplessly.
We are surrounded by bandits." Li Xiuyuan thought to himself.
At this time, the sword-wielding ghost king said again: "Zhu Yu and others were robbed by bandits, and we don't know whether they are alive or dead. You can use the book of life and death to find out their fate."
"You have reminded me that I have a book of life and death. I can indeed check their life and death."
Li Xiuyuan was reminded of this and immediately took out the Book of Life and Death, then opened it and silently recited Zhu Yu's name.
Then the name on the book of life and death appeared, and Zhu Yu's life and death, happiness, wealth and longevity were all on it.
"Zhu Yu is not dead, he is in the capital now." Li Xiuyuan saw this and put his mind at ease.
Zhu Yu is the most critical. As long as he arrives in the capital safely, the matter this time will not be irreversible. After all, he is the one who has the important task of going to the capital to buy an official position.
But when Li Xiuyuan found out the lives and deaths of Wu Fei, Ma Dong, and Niu Er, his face immediately darkened.
Wu Fei is not dead.
But Ma Dong and Niu Er were already dead.
These two guards, like Tieshan and Li Zhong, have been with him the longest. Tieshan and Li Zhong were killed by Lord Black Mountain before. He had nothing to say. He didn't expect that he would have the remaining two in this mission.
He was a loyal guard but died in a foreign country.
The sword-wielding ghost king secretly glanced at Li Xiuyuan's face.
Seeing that his face was gloomy and he seemed to be angry, he immediately lowered his head in fear and did not dare to look again.
"Damn it." Li Xiuyuan closed the book of life and death and couldn't help shouting.
"These robbers and thieves, they just blocked the road and stole money, but they actually murdered Ma Dong and Niu Er. They deserve to die. My Li family's escort agency has entered the capital. I will order the people from the escort agency to destroy this gang."
robber."
The sword-wielding ghost king seized this opportunity and said: "Young Master, as well as the two gods Shoushan and Genyue, if they hadn't stopped them, how could the little ghost not be able to protect Ma Dong and Niu Er's safety?"
Li Xiuyuan glanced at him and said, "Put away your petty thoughts. You can't defeat these two mountain gods. You have been beheaded by him for six hundred years. You hold a grudge in your heart. You want me to take care of these two mountain gods for you."
"I don't dare, kid." The sword-wielding ghost king trembled all over and bowed to the ground.
"I can understand that you hold grudges against these two mountain gods, but it is also a fact that your protection is not good. The ghost city in the underworld is still short of manpower. In a few days, you can go work under Li Zhong. If you make contributions in the underworld, I will use you again in the future.
Yes, as for the two mountain gods Shoushan and Genyue, I will not forgive them easily. Now you and I will go to the capital again, and I want to see what these two mountain gods are."
After saying that, Li Xiuyuan pulled the reins and rode back home quickly.
Soon.
A stream of purple air rose into the sky over Guobei County, covering the sky like a canopy and illuminating the surrounding area. There was a faint sound of dragons and phoenixes singing in the purple air.
Then he saw Li Xiuyuan standing on top of the dragon and phoenix holding an immortal-killing sword, his body showing an illusory color.
He was out of his mind.
Since the last time he was attacked by Shi Hu in Jinling City, he rarely left his body.
Because ghosts and gods have gradually learned about his shortcomings after leaving the body, and will deliberately target him, so Li Xiuyuan has been reducing the number of times he leaves the body.
But this time he couldn't remain indifferent.
Two important confidants died in a foreign land, and the ghost king under his command had lost his spiritual practice for hundreds of years. As a human saint, he was supposed to be a deterrent to ghosts and gods, but as a result, the two mountain gods in the capital did not take him seriously.
If you tell me, where can I put my reputation as a saint in this world?
Where is the majesty?
Without majesty and means, how can ghosts and gods be afraid of themselves? If they give in at this time, it will only encourage the arrogance of those demons and monsters.
"Sword-wielding Ghost King, follow me to meet the two mountain gods for a while." Li Xiuyuan shouted.
"The saint has an order, how dare you not follow him?" The sword-wielding ghost king was frightened and did not dare to follow too close, so he turned into a sinister wind and followed him.
Li Xiuyuan's soul turned into a ray of purple light, passing through the sky and heading towards the north.
He travels very fast with his soul, and can reach the capital in one night, but this trip will probably take away a whole day.
Although time is tight right now, Li Xiuyuan still chooses to do this.
But at this moment.
In the SF Escort Agency in the capital.
Wu Fei was sitting in a courtyard. There were two straw mats spread out in front of him, covered with coarse cloth. Two headless corpses could be vaguely seen.
After a while, an ox cart drove over, and a man drove the ox cart dragging two good coffins and stopped in front of the door.
"Is the master of the escort agency here? The coffin you ordered has arrived."
"I saw it, why don't you move in quickly?" Wu Fei glanced at it and said.
The waiter immediately called to the two men who were traveling with him and carried the coffin into the escort office.
Wu Fei opened the coffin and put the two bodies inside.
When he was about to close the coffin, a lean and tough man walked out of the escort agency. He said, "Wu Fei, I am the escort chief here and I am also working for Mr. Li. You have to transport these two coffins back."
It’s not a problem, but these two brothers have lost their heads. According to the burial custom here, the bodies cannot be buried intact. You should go find the heads of these two brothers, otherwise you will be looked down upon by others when you go to the underworld and become ghosts."
"Tou Sha, do you think I don't want to? The heads of my two brothers have been chopped into pieces by Wang Shiba and thrown into the river. How can we find them?" Wu Fei stood up angrily; "I have been acting rampantly in my life. I have never suffered such a big loss in my life. I can’t even find my brother’s head.”
The head guard said: "If you can't find it, you can only use other methods to replace it. You can ask a carpenter to carve a wooden head and put it in."
"Wooden-headed? How can this happen? In the next life, my two brothers will really become wooden-headed?" Wu Fei said.
"Then there is no other way." Sha Biaotou shook his head.
Wu Fei suddenly grinned and sneered: "Why not? There are two heads here to connect my brother."
After saying that, he pulled out his sword and walked out of the gate.
The two Lifu who heard this were so frightened that they ran away.
The remaining guy didn't dare to leave because he didn't receive the money. He trembled and said: "Hero, what are you doing? You can't mess around. Murder is against the law. There are six doors nearby. The gate’s territory is patrolled by government officials nearby.”
"Who said I'm going to chop off your head? I think your crooked head is too small for me, but this one is pretty good." Wu Fei walked to the cart and patted the cow. Head, and then arms move.
Cut it off with one knife.
"Moo~!"
The cow let out a scream, and instantly its head rolled to the ground, blood splattered, and the bullock cart immediately overturned.
"I bought this cow. I will pay for it with you later along with the money for the coffin. Your money is indispensable." Wu Fei strode over with the cow head in hand and placed it in a coffin.
The waiter collapsed on the ground in fear, his face pale and his whole body trembling.
"But there is still one head missing, so I can only wrong you." Wu Fei walked towards the backyard again at this time.
A strong horse in the backyard seemed to sense danger and began to neigh restlessly.
"That's a strong horse from Li's horse farm. It's a valuable horse. Why are you willing to kill it?" Sha Biaotou asked in surprise.
"I work hard for the eldest young master. How can the eldest young master be stingy about a horse?" Wu Fei replied.
As he was talking, the strong horse in the backyard neighed, and then heard a thud and fell to the ground. After a while, he was seen walking over holding a bloody horse head.
"I can't find any good heads to replace my two brothers here. I can only replace them with the heads of cows and horses. I think it's not a injustice to you. These two heads are worth a lot of money and are much better than the elm heads. ."
Wu Fei placed the horse's head on the neck of the corpse, took a look at it, and then closed the coffin lid after thinking it was OK.
Seeing this, the head escort couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. This Wu Fei is so wild. I don't know what means the Shaodong family used to subdue such a man.
Fortunately, the young master's family can control it. If he can't, this guy will cause big trouble sooner or later.
"Tou Sha, please transport this coffin back as soon as possible. Although it's freezing cold right now, I don't want the bodies of my two brothers to be completely rotten before we get there," Wu Fei said.
"Shunfeng escorts use horses to transport goods. They don't even use donkey carts. How can the speed be slow?" Sha escort said.
