Killing is easy, but the consequences of killing are very troublesome, and Gu Cheng knows this.
Gu Cheng could endure it, but this time he was unwilling to endure it.
But just like what he told Song Chengxun, he would not be able to calm down unless he killed Governor Hong!
In the garrison tent of Heyang Mansion, an old Taoist priest looked at Governor Hong in front of him with dissatisfaction.
"The layman invited me here in the name of General Hong, but it turned out to be your own decision?"
Governor Hong smiled apologetically and said, "Don't blame me, Taoist priest, I'm really forced to have no choice.
Don't worry, as long as you protect me this time, when father returns to the capital, I will definitely let him repay Baiyunguan."
The old Taoist priest snorted in dissatisfaction, but still nodded.
Baiyunguan is located near the capital and has a close relationship with the imperial court. He still has to give face to a general.
At this time, the soldiers outside suddenly ran in in a panic and said: "Sir! Gu Cheng, the night watchman from Jingyesi, is here and is just outside the camp!"
"Where's Guo Huai?"
The soldier shook his head and said, "I didn't see Mr. Guo."
Governor Hong's face suddenly turned pale.
Guo Huai went to persuade him, but he didn't come back. No matter how idiot he was, he knew what was going on.
Recalling what Song Bingzhong had told him before about how cruel Gu Cheng was, he quickly grabbed the old Taoist priest from Baiyun Temple and begged: "Taoist priest must save me!"
The old Taoist priest from Baiyunguan frowned, pulled away Governor Hong's hand, and said calmly: "I'll do my best, poor Taoist."
After opening the door of the tent and walking out, Gu Cheng stood in front of the tent. The surrounding garrison troops from Heyang Prefecture were pointing their weapons at him from a distance, but they did not dare to get close.
They all participated in the battle at Changchun Temple. They knew the terror of those walking corpses. This person in front of them was a practitioner who killed those walking corpses as if they were killing chickens. So killing them must be similar to killing chickens.
The old Taoist priest from Baiyun Temple went out, bowed his head and said: "I am a poor Taoist from Baiyun Temple. I have met Master Gu."
Gu Cheng frowned slightly. He guessed that someone would protect Governor Hong, but he didn't guess that the person was from Baiyunguan.
Baiyun Temple is one of the five most orthodox Taoist traditions in the world, and the current master of Baiyun Temple is also one of the national masters of Daqian's generation.
The old Taoist priest in front of him had a restrained aura that even Gu Cheng could not completely see through. His strength had at least reached the Sixth Level of Qi Refining Condensation, which was much stronger than Yu Baiqian.
"Priest Shouzhen is here to stop me?"
The old Taoist priest Shouzhen shook his head and said: "No, I am here to advise Master Gu. Don't let your anger overwhelm your reason and lead you to the road of no return."
Gu Cheng suddenly chuckled: "It seems that the Taoist priest knows about me? Do you know that my colleague Jingyesi, Pao Ze, died just because of the guy behind you?
If Baiyunguan is in the capital, it will also suppress the demons and demons around it. If someone stabs you in the back while Baiyunguan is suppressing demons and demons, what will the Taoist priest do?"
The old Taoist priest Shouzhen sighed. Of course he also despised the conduct of Governor Hong, but he was already here. If he couldn't protect him, he would not only lose the favor of a general, but he might even be angered by him.
, then it would be even more unworthy.
So Shouzhen had no choice but to say: "What Governor Hong did was indeed wrong, but Mr. Gu, you can report it to Jingyesi and the military. I believe the superiors will definitely give you justice.
It is really lawless for you to take action privately and retaliate wantonly.
Mr. Gu, you are from Jingyesi, so you should know better than me the laws of Daqian and the laws and disciplines of Jingyesi."
"Justice? I don't need others to give me justice, I will get it myself!"
Taoist Shouzhen said solemnly: "But there is a poor Taoist here. If you can't take it away, Mr. Gu, please retreat. Don't be stubborn."
A weird smile appeared on Gu Cheng's face: "Really? But what if I insist on taking it away?"
Governor Hong inside the camp was carefully observing the situation outside.
Seeing that the old Taoist priest Shouzhen really stopped Gu Cheng, he was still secretly happy in his heart.
Although that guy Guo Huai is unreliable, his ideas are still very reliable.
At the same time, he was also furious in his heart that Gu Cheng actually wanted to kill him. When he had the opportunity, he would go to his mother and ask her to put pressure on Jingyesi and take good care of this Gu Cheng!
But at this moment, Gu Cheng outside suddenly raised his hand, and a faint yin energy flowed out of his hand so fast that even Taoist Shouzhen could only vaguely see it. It seemed to be the remains of five little ghosts. There was a shadow, but it disappeared in an instant.
Sensing the reappearance of the Yin Qi, Taoist Shouzhen's expression suddenly changed, but it was already too late.
Inside the camp, Governor Hong was still wondering why the old Taoist priest's face had turned so ugly, but he suddenly found that several soldiers were looking at him with horrified eyes.
Five little ghosts appeared behind Governor Hong's head at some unknown time, formed a circle, and lifted his head off the ground.
Governor Hong screamed and struggled, and the five little devils turned slightly, like twisting a twist. Governor Hong's body turned in a circle, blood and minced meat were sprayed evenly around the camp, and the headless body fell to the ground!
The next moment, Governor Hong's head was already held in Gu Cheng's hands by his hair. His eyes were full of horror, as if he couldn't believe that he was dead like this.
"No one can stop me from taking what I want."
Carrying Governor Hong's head, Gu Cheng turned and left. The garrison in Heyang Prefecture unconsciously separated a road, and no one dared to block it.
The unknown existence is the most terrifying thing. In the eyes of the Heyang Mansion garrison, Gu Cheng took the heads of their governors with a wave of his hand. Such an existence is simply like a ghost.
The old Taoist priest Shouzhen looked at Gu Cheng's leaving figure, let out a long sigh, and did not stop him.
Governor Hong is already dead, so what's the use of stopping him?
He just felt that he was unlucky and got involved in such nonsense for no reason.
…………
Carrying the head back to Luo County, Gu Cheng placed the head in front of Xiao Yi's grave.
Under the Heavenly Fire Demon Killing Talisman, Xiao Yi's body had been burned, so the tomb in front of him was just a tomb of clothes.
Zhao Jingming and all the people from Luo County Jingyesi were there. They followed Gu Cheng, saluted to the tombstone, then bowed deeply to Gu Cheng, and said in a deep voice: "Thank you, sir!"
They were thanking Gu Cheng for avenging them.
It was Xiao Yi who saved them, so they should have taken revenge.
But even if all of them come together, they can't kill Governor Hong.
If it weren't for Gu Cheng, either one of them would have a hard conscience and forcefully kill Governor Hong and then be killed, or they would have to suffer like this for the rest of their lives.
"Needless to say, Xiao Yi is also my colleague."
Zhao Jingming took out a box, which contained a slightly ugly scarecrow.
"Sir, this is the only relic left by Xiao Yi."
Just as Gu Cheng took the box, he saw Cui Zijie walking over with a pale face.
"Hey, I knew that with your personality, you would definitely take action."
Cui Zijie sighed and placed the Commander Jingye card representing Xiao Yi in front of his grave.
"I rescued Xiao B at the beginning. Ordinary people have experienced ghost incidents, and their personalities will inevitably be tainted with a little darkness. But Xiao B can still maintain a sunny mood, which is rare.
I didn't stop you this time, because if I were twenty years younger and my colleague Pao Ze was tricked to death, I would take action because I wouldn't consider the consequences at that time.
But this time, have you considered the consequences?"
Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows and said: "The world is so big, apart from Donglin County, is there no place for me?"
Although Gu Cheng killed Governor Hong because he was upset, it did not affect his thinking about his future.
When I decided to join Yasushi, I wanted to survive and gain strength in this weird and dangerous world.
Jing Yesi is a good springboard and a good platform.
But with Gu Cheng's current strength, even if he is separated from Jingyesi, he is not an unknown person.
Du Lanjiang, who died in his hands before, a guy who was born as a tomb robber and water thief can become famous among casual cultivators. Even if he, Gu Cheng, left Jingyesi to become a casual cultivator, he has a black jade space, and he has
All kinds of magical cards are there, and they can emerge even in the rough.
The Xuanwu Zhen Sect is the top sect in Donglin County, but in Daqian Fifty-one County, it is not the turn of the Xuanwu Zhen Sect to dominate the sky with one hand.
Cui Zijie shook his head slightly and said: "That being said, you have accumulated so much achievements in Jingyesi. Let's not talk about the troubles after leaving Jingyesi. How regretful is it to waste it like this?
But you are right about one thing, the world is so big, there is a place for you anywhere except Donglin County, and Jingyesi is not just in Donglin County.
You're lucky, I have a way to break the situation."
Under Gu Cheng's puzzled eyes, Cui Zijie took out a dragon-patterned brocade box and said, "Just when you were going to kill Governor Hong, the Jingyesi headquarters in the capital arranged for Xuanjia Guards to go to Nanyi County among the nine counties in the south to deliver the goods.
this thing.
But the Xuanjia Guard was a little unlucky. He took a small path and ran into a demon cave. He was severely injured and could no longer deliver the message. After insisting on coming to Heyang Mansion, he directly took out the token of the Xuanjia Guard in the capital and asked me to Heyang.
Jingyesi of Yangfu sent someone to take the things to Nanyi County on his behalf.
Because he took the order from the Jingyesi headquarters in the capital, he could directly skip the town governor. After delivering the things, you don't have to go back to Donglin County, but go directly back to the capital to resume your duties.
It will be easy to say then. With your current strength, if you want to join the Jingyesi headquarters in the capital, no one will refuse you. Of course, you, the night watchman, may have to be reduced to a black armor guard."
Gu Cheng's eyes lit up, there is no perfect path, Cui Zijie's method can be said to be Gu Cheng's best choice now.
"By the way, sir, what is in this that requires Jingyesi to be the courier and specially deliver it to Nanyi County?"
