Song Bingzhong kept walking back and forth in the camp. On the other side, Governor Hong, who was sitting on a chair and drinking to calm down his shock, said dissatisfied: "Old Song, what are you walking around for? You've made my head spin."
Song Bingzhong sighed repeatedly: "Master Governor, why did you order the withdrawal? As long as you persist for less than half a quarter of an hour, the corpse demon will be solved by Commander Cui Zijie."
Governor Hong rolled his eyes and said: "How do I know when they will be able to deal with the corpse demon? Those monsters are about to stick to my face. If I don't run away, will I still wait there to die?"
Song Bingzhong wanted to say something, but in the end he could only sigh deeply.
The captain had already told him what happened at that time. If Governor Hong hadn't panicked and commanded randomly, they would have been able to hold off for half a quarter of an hour.
"But when you withdrew like this, you trapped all Jingyesi's people inside. Not only were they all seriously injured, but one of them even died. The most important thing is that the person who died was Luo County's night watchman Gu Cheng!
"
Governor Hong frowned and said, "Is this the guy who dared to scold me last time?"
Song Bingzhong sighed: "That person is not someone to be trifled with. He has been in Heyang Mansion for less than half a year, but he has already taken the position of night watchman. From this alone, you can know his strength and skills.
Moreover, this person's actions can be described as bold and cruel.
He planned to overthrow Daoxuan Sect and intercepted the leader of Daoxuan Sect, Yu Baiqian, on the way. The Daoxuan Sect, which had been passed down for hundreds of years, was destroyed in his hands.
I heard that even the current leader of the Changle Gang was supported by him.
Lord Governor, you should know what kind of person Xie Anzhi is, the governor of Donglin County, but Gu Cheng was able to escape unhurt when Xie Anzhi was furious.
Although I have never had a close relationship with him, I can tell what kind of person he is just based on hearsay.
This time you tricked his subordinate to death. I heard that that person is still his confidant and his first partner after coming to Jingyesi. How can this matter be a good thing?"
Song Bingzhong would not be able to control Governor Hong even if he caused a huge mess.
But the problem is that he handed over the military power to Governor Hong this time. What if he gets implicated?
"Is it possible that he still dares to come to the military camp?" Governor Hong asked in disbelief.
Song Bingzhong shook his head and said, "Others don't dare, but as for Gu Cheng, I'm not sure."
At this time, next to Governor Hong, a middle-aged man with a thin stature and a mustache said with a smile: "Don't worry, sir. It's just an ordinary Xuanjia guard who died. Gu Cheng may not know your background yet."
, if he knew it, he could only endure it and hold it back if he had any resentment.
However, it is better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies. Gu Cheng is still the boss of Heyang Mansion. Jingyesi, we should try our best not to offend him. In this way, I will go out to persuade Gu Cheng and promise to give you an explanation.
"
Song Bingzhong frowned, with obvious disgust in his eyes.
This guy was originally a clerk in his army who was responsible for counting grain and fodder. His name was Guo Huai. He was naughty and liked to play tricks. After Governor Hong came, he fawned over him.
But this time he really overestimated his abilities and dared to take on anything.
Governor Hong asked with some anxiety: "What if the other party dares to come and cause trouble?"
Hearing Song Bingzhong talk about Gu Cheng in such a mysterious way, he was also a little scared.
Guo Huai chuckled and said, "Don't worry, sir. How much trouble can a night patrol make? It just so happened that the Taoist priests from Baiyun Temple came to Donglin County recently. You invited them here in the name of your father. I believe they will definitely
It will give the general some face."
Governor Hong nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, yes, you have more ideas. This time the matter is done, and the benefits will be yours."
Song Bingzhong on the side could hardly stand listening anymore.
One of these two people is really stupid, and the other is smart. Even if nothing happens this time, they will cause bigger troubles sooner or later.
He waved his hand directly and said: "It's good that the Governor has something in mind. I've been feeling unwell recently and need to take a few days off. The affairs in the military camp will be temporarily left to the Governor."
After saying that, Song Bingzhong immediately turned around and left, staying away from the place of right and wrong.
………………
In the Jingyesi Department of Luo County, Gu Cheng spent a day to use up all the elixirs he got from Daoxuan Sect to repair and perfect the energy and blood consumed when fighting the corpse demon, and return to the top.
But when he came out of quarantine, he found that Song Chengxun was waiting for him.
"My lord sent you to persuade me?"
Song Chengxun shook his head and said: "Your Excellency did not ask me to persuade you, but just asked me to tell you the identity of Governor Hong.
The Lord has said that he is also very angry about this matter. The death of a member of Jingyesi in the hands of demons is considered a sacrifice, but death in the hands of one of our own people is very aggrieved.
However, there are too many frustrating things in this world. No one in our generation of practitioners can have smooth sailing. Sometimes, if you endure it for a while, you can give yourself a chance.
The father of Governor Hong is Hong Dingshan, the general of the Shaowu Army. Actually, there is no need to worry about this, because his father actually does not like his son very much, and even dislikes him a little.
Moreover, the Shaowu Army is currently stationed in the western Xinjiang. The sky is high and the Emperor is far away, so it cannot affect our Donglin County.
The real difficulty is his mother.
His mother was Bai Ziwei, the elder of the Xuanwu Zhen Sect in Donglin County. She had a fight with someone while she was pregnant and had fetal gas, which damaged Governor Hong's foundation and made him unable to practice martial arts and refine his energy for the rest of his life.
Because of this, Bai Ziwei felt indebted to him, so she doted on him extremely. His position as governor was not obtained for him by his father, but by Bai Ziwei who paid a huge price to bribe people from the Donglin County military.
By the way, the relationship between Xuanwu Zhenzong and Lord Zhenfushi is very unusual. It is said that in the past, Lord Zhenfushi could establish himself in Donglin County without the help of Xuanwu Zhenzong. Even the head of Xuanwu Zhenzong and Lord Zhenfushi were sworn brothers.
.
So even if we were able to handle this matter, it would still be unreasonable when it came to the governor.
If you kill Governor Hong, you may not even have a foothold in the entire Donglin County."
Gu Cheng took a long breath, his voice was calm, but full of chilling meaning:
"Actually, I know what your Excellency is saying. That Governor Hong is an idiot and useless, but for such a waste to become the Governor, one can imagine his background.
I can endure the calm for a while, but I can't calm down."
At this time, a smile appeared on Song Chengxun's lips: "My lord asked me to tell you what I just said.
But if it were me, I would still kill you, the King of Heaven, I will kill you without fail!"
Song Chengxun had an extremely crazy personality due to his ghost refining. In the entire Jingyesi Division of Heyang Mansion, few people were willing to deal with him, and he was unwilling to deal with others.
But now Gu Cheng's choice made him feel that it suited his temper.
At this time, Zhao Jingming suddenly walked in and said with a gloomy face: "Sir, a guy who claims to be Governor Hong's staff is here and wants to see you."
"Bring it in."
Guo Huai walked in secretly. When he saw Gu Cheng, he immediately cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Master Gu, I am Guo Huai, the staff of the Governor. Today I am here to bring a message to Master Gu for the Governor."
"What are you talking about?" Gu Cheng asked expressionlessly.
Guo Huai shook his head and sighed: "What happened last time was actually unintentional by the Governor, it was all just an accident.
It's just that one Xuanjia guard died, so why should Master Gu take it seriously, right?
The father of my governor is a general of the Shaowu Army, and his mother is an elder of the Xuanwu Zhen Sect. If Mr. Gu touches my governor, life will not be easy.
As the saying goes, there is no acquaintance without fighting. My Lord Governor is willing to serve wine in Heyang Mansion to Mr. Gu to make amends for you. From now on, everyone will turn their differences into friendship and become friends. Isn’t this wonderful? "
Guo Huai thought that what he said was both soft and hard. Gu Cheng had no choice. If he took this step, everyone would be happy.
But in Song Chengxun's view, this guy was simply adding fuel to the fire.
Gu Cheng hooked his fingers and said calmly: "Come here."
Guo Huai approached and asked, "Do you have any other instructions, sir?"
The next moment, Gu Cheng's right hand had turned into a black stiff arm, and the majestic energy was condensed in the zombie's claws. With a 'bang', he directly blew the opponent's head off!
The headless body fell to the ground, and Gu Cheng said calmly: "Come here, drag it down, chop it into pieces, and feed it to the dogs."
Picking up the Blood Abyss Sword, Gu Cheng walked out, while Song Chengxun gently shook his head behind him.
Gu Cheng's killing of Guo Huai has proved his attitude, and there is no room for redemption in this matter.
