Dawn is approaching, and the sky is getting dark, with only a glimmer of light.
On a deserted field, a group of men in black drove horses.
The horses he sat on were extremely handsome, with shoulders over nine feet high, and their hair was sleek, and they were like running fire.
They were dressed in thin black uniforms, uniformly equipped with long swords and strong bows. They were full of energy and energy, driving their horses forward, but their bodies were as still as mountains.
"stop!"
Suddenly, the first person raised his hand, and all the horses stopped moving.
At this time, the sound of horse hooves was heard.
Everyone raised their heads and saw a line of red horses approaching from the darkness of night. They all looked like flames and rolled away. Not long after, they arrived in front of everyone.
The black-robed swordsman in front of him got off his horse, knelt on one knee, and said loudly:
"Long Yuanwei, Shanziying, Colonel Zhou Li, pays homage to Mr. Wang!"
"Get up."
The person who answered was a middle-aged man with a tough face. He wore black armor and black robes, carried a long bow on his back, and wore a long sword. He only had one pair of eyebrows, which were slightly red.
The Longyuan Guard was built after the Imperial Forest Army and was divided into four battalions: "Wind, Forest, Fire, and Mountain". Each battalion only had 3,000 men, but it was known as the First Army of Longyuan.
This guard was first formed when King Long Yuan set foot on the rivers and lakes. It was originally formed from the elites of the three states of Qing, Bai, and Yun. What really allowed it to maintain its combat effectiveness was the almost harsh system of Long Yuan Guard.
.
The martial arts system.
Every four months, Longyuan Guard will hold a martial arts exercise for the four major battalions. Each time, more than one-fifth of the soldiers in each battalion will be eliminated.
Therefore, even Long Yuanwei will recruit a large number of elite troops from the three states' most elite troops every year and train them to fill the four major battalions.
It's never full.
The person in front of me is Long Yuan Guard, Wang Jingqi, the commander of Shanzi Camp. The last time Long Yuan performed martial arts, he ranked among the top three in Huozi Camp.
He is also his immediate boss.
"yes."
Thursday Li stood up solemnly.
"You came to Deyang Mansion before me, did you find anything?"
Wang Jingqi asked.
"There are no roosters crowing for hundreds of miles, and there are no people living for thousands of miles. Except for a few big cities, there are no villages or towns in the wilderness. They are devastated and full of bones..."
Zhou Li's expression darkened, and he became a little fierce:
"Mediocre officials and incompetent officials allowed disasters to occur, and tens of millions of people died. They deserved to be killed!"
"He deserves to be killed."
Wang Jingqi's expression was gloomy.
Why do we need to leave on Thursday?
What he saw along the way was shocking. The prosperity of the past was no longer there. Although he was not from Deyang Mansion, he also suffered a huge impact in his heart.
"May I ask, sir, how should we act?"
Thursday leave inquiry:
"In Deyang Prefecture, Mr. Xu is providing disaster relief..."
"With your ability, why do we need to pay attention to these mediocre officials in Deyang Mansion?"
Wang Jingqi's eyes darkened:
"On the contrary, those martial arts people who took advantage of the disaster to cause chaos are the ones who really deserve to be killed..."
"Martial arts people?"
Zhou Li frowned slightly.
He had heard that due to rumors of evil spirits that spread from unknown sources, martial arts people from nearby state capitals were attracted to Deyang Mansion these days.
"Return to the team."
Wang Jingqi said no more, raised his hand to tell Zhou Li and his men to return to the team, and urged the horses to go south.
I had doubts about centrifugation on Thursday, but pressed it anyway.
…
…
In a catastrophic disaster, thousands of miles will be withered, but not everyone will become a refugee. Those who truly have a great family and a great business can protect the family and even make a fortune.
White Rock Villa is such a place.
Deyang Mansion is almost the most affluent among all the mansions in Qingzhou. Therefore, there are many political and political forces in it, and Baishi Villa is one of them.
"White Rock Villa?"
In front of a ravine, Zhou Li looked at the other side of the river. On the other side of the dry river, the lonely manor was particularly conspicuous. After thinking about it for a moment, he recognized this place.
Baishi Villa is not simply a martial arts force. Its owner, Zheng Baishi, once served in Qingzhou and his status seems to be quite high.
The White Stone Villa he built was built on green hills than the Dahe River. It covers an area of a hundred acres and contains many landscapes. It is also a well-known power in Deyang Mansion.
"Zheng Baishi is a man of extremely high means. Not only does he have relationships with many officials, but he also has deep friendships with many martial arts sects.
Therefore, I have accumulated this family fortune in just twenty years."
Wang Jingqi sneered:
"But this man is so sanctimonious! In the past, he seemed to have made many good friends, but in fact he harbored evil intentions. During this catastrophe, this man took the opportunity to take action, forcing countless families to leave their wives and children and starve to death on the roadside..."
"Deserves to be killed!"
Thursday Li's face darkened.
Since ancient times, great disasters have caused the poor to die and the rich to prosper. With the financial background of a large family, a drought can be sustained for not just two years, but twenty years.
At the same time, you can buy large tracts of land at the lowest price.
Normally, farmers would never give up their land, but in times of disaster, they have no choice.
"Walk!"
Wang Jingqi waved his hand.
He came to Deyang Mansion firstly to collect statistics on the disaster, and secondly to suppress all those who took advantage of the situation.
At this time, Xu Wenji was suppressing the city. Naturally, what he had to do was to suppress these Jianghu forces, and Zheng Baishi was naturally one of them.
call!
Everyone moved together.
The wide river channel is naturally not a problem for the dragon and horse under them. Not to mention drying up, even if the water overflows both banks, it is still enough to swim across.
Soon, everyone arrived on the other side.
"Something's wrong."
Seeing Baishi Villa in the distance, Wang Jingqi's brows furrowed, and Zhou Li and others' expressions also changed as they noticed something strange.
Bloody smell?
Wang Jingqi turned over and dismounted, followed closely by Zhou Li. Both of them were very good at lightness skills. Not long after, they were in front of the main entrance of the villa.
Only sporadic sawdust remained on the vermilion door, scattered on the steps and the lifelike stone lions outside the door. From here, the smell of blood became more intense.
Behind the main entrance, there is a dry forest road, with dead leaves flying and falling to the ground, which is about a foot high.
call!
Zhou Limeng waved his sleeves and stirred up air currents, blowing away the piled yellow leaves in front of him, revealing a piece of dark red land underneath, as well as corpses that had already stiffened.
"The time of death shall not exceed two days..."
Zhou Li moved very quickly, blowing up large pieces of dead leaves, revealing the corpses underneath.
At this time, the other masters of Longyuan Guard also arrived.
"Group of three, check separately, be careful, and report back at any time if you find anything."
Wang Jingqi said in a deep voice.
"yes!"
All the Long Yuan guards dispersed, with only Zhou Li accompanying them.
He walked slowly on the forest road, looking at the many corpses and traces, and spoke from time to time.
"One hundred and twenty-seven corpses, all with martial arts skills, should be the guards of the villa. The people who did it were extremely cruel. Most of the corpses had their muscles and bones shattered..."
"Thirty-three people were beaten to death with bare hands, and the rest seemed to have been shocked to death by Gang Qi?!"
"There is only one murderer..."
…
Huang Jingqi closed his eyes slightly, listened to Zhou Li's report, and reviewed the inferred scene in his mind:
"These guards had known that someone was breaking into the village and had formed a formation to wait, but they didn't expect someone with extremely high martial arts skills to come. They broke in with their bare hands and left only four footprints in the 100-foot forest road. They were calculated based on the depth and speed.
He just flew by without stopping..."
Master!
A master above the four levels!
"This person must have extremely high levels of training. Those killed by his own hands will have their bones cracked like mud. This is not internal energy, but crushing by absolute power."
"He's a master!"
Zhou Li looked solemn.
The guards at White Rock Villa are not ordinary people. They are all accomplished people. Although most of them stay on the first and second floors, they are not ordinary people.
He thought to himself that even if he took action himself, that would be all.
But he has to use his inner breath.
"Bodies are everywhere, and there are no survivors!"
"All the money in the house is there. The murderer seemed to have left in a hurry. He only took away some drinks and dry food..."
"Zheng Baishi's body is in the backyard!"
Soon, the scattered Long Yuan Guards rushed back one after another and reported their respective findings.
"Does White Rock Villa have such a powerful enemy?"
Zhou Li raised his eyebrows slightly.
Wang Jingqi's expression remained unchanged, and he walked at the front towards the backyard. He saw dead and wounded everywhere along the way.
What is even more shocking than these dead bodies is that everyone was killed with one move!
"Killed with one blow, his boxing skills are extremely domineering! This deceased person was not bad at training, but he couldn't bear it. All the muscles and bones in his body were broken into pieces."
Grabbing the arm of one of the dead men who died in a miserable state, with his head smashed into the chest, Zhou Li slowly exhaled a breath and came to the conclusion:
"I'm afraid this person's martial arts skills are not inferior to mine."
Hearing this, all the accompanying Long Yuan guards looked solemn. Although Zhou Li was only the captain of Shanzi Camp, it was his own choice.
His martial arts skills are not low. In the last martial arts performance by Long Yuan, he ranked twenty-third in the Shanzi camp. It is unknown if he can achieve the 'Niu Mo Zhen Gang' and go one step further.
Wang Jingqi still said nothing, but there was a little more surprise in his eyebrows.
There are few masters in Qingzhou that he doesn't know, and he also knows some masters of horizontal training with such strength, but those people are not in Deyang Mansion.
He was thinking in his mind, but his steps were very fast. The deeper he walked into the villa, the more mess he saw, and the paved stone slabs were almost broken into powder.
Later, we even found traces of bows and crossbows.
"Hide a crossbow and armor privately?"
Looking at the armored corpse at his feet, Zhou Li frowned. He was an extremely tall old man, but his death appearance was equally miserable.
He was punched through the chest and his spine was broken into seven or eight pieces.
"Xuanjin Chain Armor, this old guy is..."
Leaning over and taking a look, Zhou Li's eyelids twitched. His blood was extremely viscous, and his muscles and bones were extremely strong, even as strong as his own...
Long Yuanwei glanced at Zhou Li carefully and whispered:
"This person should be Zheng Baishi."
On Thursday, the skin of the dough was slightly red and a little uneasy.
"One punch breaks the gang, breaks armor, breaks horizontal lines, and shatters the internal organs. Such boxing techniques, such martial arts..."
Wang Jingqi leaned down and looked at it carefully, and his eyebrows finally showed a solemn look:
"I'm afraid this person's martial arts skills are not inferior to mine..."
