The subscription is too low and the space is too big. I'm going to be fooled. I'll release the anti-theft chapter and change it back in the morning.
When Hao Bantou first heard that Gongsun Chunbai pointed out the concubine he had taken into his new room, his face turned pale with fright. He knelt on the ground with a thud and said tremblingly: "Master, villain... villain...
The villain deserves to die. That concubine was given to me by Shi Gan in the past few days. I accepted it because I was confused. I will go back and drive her away."
"Why are you rushing? I don't care about your nonsense." Gongsun Chunbai waved his hand impatiently.
Then he pointed at Bantou Hao and said with a serious expression, "Bantou Hao, I don't want to take care of your troubles, and I don't bother to take care of them. But I have to remind you. You are an official of the imperial court, not the Flying Tiger Gang.
You’re a dog, if I find you sitting with your butt crooked, you must be very aware of the consequences.”
Hearing this, Gongsun Chunbai couldn't stop the sweat from flowing down his forehead. Of course he knew where his power came from.
It can be said that once he loses this layer of tiger skin, he is nothing, and Shi Gandang will not even look at him.
He knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly. "Don't worry, sir. No matter how stupid I am, I will never forget my duty."
"Hmph, I hope you remember." Gongsun Chunbai waved his hand impatiently, "You can get out."
"Thank you, sir, for your kindness." Hao Bantou left with great gratitude.
Gongsun Chunbai ignored Hao Bantou who had already left. After sitting in a chair and meditating for several minutes, he took out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from his pocket.
I saw him take out a cigarette and put it to his mouth, and when he pressed the lighter, there was a popping sound, and a cluster of faint blue flames came out of the lighter.
He lit the cigarette, took a deep breath with an intoxicated voice, and murmured to himself, "I didn't expect there to be such a magical thing in the world. It's okay to offer such a treasure disrespectfully, but to dare to sell it openly.
No wonder Shi Gandang wants to deal with you with all his might."
Suddenly, a long voice sounded beside me, "Yes, it's just because this thing is good, so you don't hesitate to confuse right and wrong and take it by force. Is this the way a dignified county magistrate does things?"
"Who is it?"
Gongsun Chunbai was startled. He suddenly looked back and realized that there was a young man sitting on the chair next to him. He was looking at him lightly at the moment, with a bright look on his face.
Seeing the visitor, Gongsun Chunbai's pupils shrank slightly and he said slowly, "Are you the Su Tong who killed the chief helmsman of the Feihu Gang last night?"
"That's right." Su Tong said with a sarcastic look on his face, "I didn't expect that the dignified Lord Commander of Shao County would actually be a greedy villain. He would not hesitate to collude with officials and bandits to harm the people for a trivial matter. This really made Su open his eyes.
What a vision!”
"Huh, common people." Gongsun Chunbai sneered, "You are also a high-level martial artist, but you actually have compassion for those untouchables. Isn't this ridiculous?"
"Uh..." Su Tong was speechless for a while.
Only then did he remember that the attitude of the imperial court in this world towards ordinary people was even colder than on Earth.
No matter how much China's rulers look down on the common people from ancient times to the present, at least Confucianism still binds the scholar-official class and the emperor.
Those scholars would often say that the people are the most important, the king is the most important, and the country is the next best thing.
But it's different here. This is a world where martial arts is respected, and there are even immortal cultivators.
Under such a situation, how can the ruling class take the people under its rule to heart?
But this time Su Tong didn't come here to discuss people's livelihood issues with Gongsun Chunbai.
He glanced at Gongsun Chunbai and said, "Master Gongsun, you not only sealed up my shop, but also arrested three of my servants. Now aren't you going to give me an explanation?"
"Explain?" Gongsun Chunbai snorted. "What a joke. As a high-ranking magistrate of a county, do I need to explain to you, a mere warrior?
Don't say that I didn't give you a chance. If you kneel down and be arrested now, I can give you a lighter sentence, otherwise I won't blame you for issuing a sea arrest notice."
"Really, then you go die!"
Su Tong suddenly put his hand behind his back, and a ray of cold light struck Gongsun Chunbai. In Gongsun Chunbai's stunned eyes, the knife in Su Tong's hand seemed to see a steel plate, and it made a crisp sound.
Su Tong looked intently and found that at some point Gongsun Chunbai's body had a faint golden light. The knife he just struck was on that layer of golden light.
"What is this?" Su Tong was shocked. This was the first time he saw such a thing. A thin golden light actually blocked his full-strength slash. Isn't this incredible?
Gongsun Chunbai was not prepared at all for the sudden outburst of Su Tong. When he saw the light of the sword striking like lightning, he had no time to react and could only close his eyes and wait for death. In the end, When the knife struck the golden light that suddenly emerged from his body, he was relieved at first, and then became furious.
He pointed at Su Tong and yelled: "You Su Tong, you dare to assassinate the imperial official. You are really lawless. Just wait for the official notice of sea arrest issued by me. There is no place for you in the world!"
But Su Tong still answered him with a sharp sword light.
"When... when... when..."
Knife after knife, Su Tong focused his true energy on the machete, and struck Gongsun Chunbai's body one after another. The teeth-piercing impact sound kept ringing, and the golden light on Gongsun Chunbai's body also slowed down in the light of the knife. Slowly dimmed.
At the beginning, Gongsun Chunbai was nonchalant, but as the golden light on his body gradually became dim, he gradually became panicked.
As an official of the imperial court, he certainly knew what the golden light that protected him was. It was emitted by the official seal he carried with him.
As a court official, every official will carry this official seal with him. This official seal is not only a symbol of their status, but also a treasure. It can emit golden light to protect the court officials when their lives are threatened.
Of course, the power of official seals at different levels is naturally different, but at Gongsun Chunbai's level, the official seal he wears cannot be broken even by a master-level master.
But the energy in the official seal is limited after all. As Su Tong slashed with one knife after another, the energy in the official seal was also rapidly consumed, and soon became dim.
At this time, Gongsun Chunbai also began to panic. He naturally knew what would happen to him once the protective shield was broken.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but run away. As he ran, he shouted loudly, "Here comes someone... an assassin... someone comes quickly... there is an assassin..."
