The autumn wind is blowing and the weather is slightly cold.
The gray fog is hazy, and there are clouds gathering in the sky.
Tick tick tick——
The drizzle fell like catkins from the sky, filling the huge Tianye Mansion.
Ji Qingwu sat alone on the high platform, warming a glass of wine and overlooking the huge Tianye Mansion.
"For such a great missionary opportunity, don't make me wait in vain! Wusheng Church!!"
The execution ground of Tianye Mansion is located in the North District of Qingzhufang, which has a relatively low population, not far from the Black Prison.
Amidst the mottled raindrops, the prison door made of steel was opened!
The government officials wearing iron armor had solemn faces, holding swords and knives, bows and crossbows. They stood on both sides of the road and were ready.
The huge street was now empty and silent.
"Kakaka-"
The prison car made of solid wood and cold iron slowly stopped in front of the prison gate.
The sound of heavy iron ropes gradually became clearer in the dark and deep prison. Along with the sound of footsteps, the hazy figures began to become clear.
Shackles, shackles, seals, iron rings!
Tangled in heavy chains, a large group of death row prisoners were escorted onto prison cars.
There is an old man with an ashen face and complete despair;
There are wailing, crying, and shouting innocent thick young people;
There are also crazy young women with crazy faces and disheveled hair.
Chen Xiu reined in his horse, looked at these people from a distance, and slowly shook his head.
"Master Chen, you are too kind-hearted. The people here are all death row prisoners, and they are all guilty of heinous crimes! They deserve to die!"
The young man beside him spoke softly.
His name is Wang Sheng, he is a new government servant, he is fifteen years old and has practiced martial arts for several years.
Now that he has entered the second level of martial arts, he can be regarded as a well-known young talent in Tianye Mansion.
Chen Xiu sneered and said lightly: "There are countless criminals in the huge Tianye Mansion. But how many people are actually sent to death row? Not to mention the Chen family and the Chu family. The Sky Eagle Gang has been destroyed. I don’t know how many of them deserved to be in this dark prison, but they didn’t come in.”
"Do you know why?"
Wang Sheng, who still had a childish look on his face, raised his head slightly: "Because of his family and background?"
Um.
Chen Xiu smiled lightly: "This is one reason, but not all. What I lament is not them, but myself."
As he spoke, he slowly raised his head, with a firm look in his eyes: "What is the purpose of practicing martial arts? I always thought it was for living. But now, I have new ideas!"
"Even if it is notorious, no one dares to take it; even if it is a heinous crime in the eyes of the world, no one dares to touch Fenhao!"
With such prestige, no one dares to touch its edge! !
Thumb——
The sound of extremely heavy footsteps suddenly sounded.
"coming!"
Wang Sheng's eyes trembled, and his hand holding the reins became a little tense.
"Um?"
Chen Xiu raised his eyes slightly, and in the deep black prison, a figure slowly became clear.
At this moment, all the bows were fully drawn, and the crossbows were aimed at the depths.
The scimitar is unsheathed and the long sword is in hand!
Thumb thump thump——
The dull voice finally became clear, and the huge figure stepped out of the dark prison.
This is a sturdy man, two feet tall and burly, shaped like a path-finding god!
The heavy chain made of black iron pierced through his bones, and a huge iron ball hung above his arms and legs.
The shackles made of iron and wood were placed on his neck, as if iron nails were integrated into his flesh!
"The Mangshan bandits, the fourth master!"
Wang Sheng spoke softly, with fear and hatred in his eyes: "Burning, killing, looting, and committing all kinds of evil. It is said that he once ate women and children alive, and the blood stained on his hands is probably far more than a thousand people."
"Back then, even though Mr. Zhang was the one who arrested the head, it was only with the help of experts from the court that he won with great difficulty!"
Chen Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly: "A ruthless person at the fourth level of martial arts?"
"One hundred acupoints have been opened all over the body, and there are already some signs of inner Qi becoming different." Wang Sheng, as a government official, knows a lot about it.
"That's not the case, right? With Mr. Zhang's head-hunting capabilities, how can he not be able to defeat him?"
Chen Xiu rubbed his chin and spoke with interest.
In his opinion, Zhang Yunshan was a genuine expert at the fourth level of martial arts.
"Master Chen, you don't know something. This man is bloodthirsty by nature, and he has practiced evil skills. His body is like black iron, and his blood is like silver mercury. He has reached the state where his whole body is leak-free! He is also extremely powerful. He once dragged two oxen backwards with one arm. In retrograde motion, both arms have the strength of thousands of kilograms.”
"That's why Zhang Yunshan, the head hunter, goes to such great lengths!"
Wang Sheng explained in a low voice.
Chen Xiu nodded slightly, glanced at this person, and frowned: "Why is he so calm?"
How can someone be so calm if he is not determined to die?
etc!
Chen Xiu's eyes suddenly condensed: This is a mission sent by Zhou Wenlong!
He would never make it easy for himself.
In other words, there may be something unexpected happening this time when the prisoners on death row are executed!
"The fourth leader of the Mangshan bandits..." Chen Xiu muttered, and an idea suddenly came to his mind:
Someone wants to rob the court! !
"Just watch, I'll go back!"
Chen Xiu told Wang Sheng to rein in his horse and return home.
Nine dragons appear, ghosts see sorrow, rainstorms pear blossom needles, red clouds suppress evil swords.
in case!
When he walked to the gate, Chen Xiu met Chen Yue who was returning from seeing off his friends, holding a volume of books in his hands.
Today, Chen Yue is becoming more graceful and radiant.
"Xiaoxiu, are you okay?"
Chen Yue spoke worriedly.
"Don't worry, sister."
Chen Xiu comforted softly.
At this time, his eyes fell on Chen Yue's palm and suddenly condensed:
"The Book of the Incarnation of the Innocent Old Mother"!
"Sister, why are you looking at this?"
Chen Yue smiled tenderly and slowly opened it. It turned out to be a copied copybook.
"Miss Wanyue helped me revise this, so I can learn to read." After saying that, he gently straightened Chen Xiu's clothes and said with a smile: "You are already a big shot. If I can't even read, no?" Is it embarrassing for you?"
"Don't worry, Wusheng Church, I will not join them."
Chen Xiu breathed a sigh of relief.
...
Qingzhufang, high platform.
Ji Wuqing, who was shaking the wine pot, looked sideways and said to himself with a half-smile: "At this time, half of the thirty-six divine crossbows on the execution ground were actually taken away."
A deep thought flashed in his eyes: "Zhou Wenlong, does he really want Mr. Chen to die, or does he have other ideas?"
As he spoke, he jumped down and was startled by the flying swallows flying across the sky.
He fell straight into the deep alley, staring at several figures in black with scimitars on their backs, with a cold smile:
"Guys, where are you going?"
"If it's an execution ground, you might as well stay with me and have a chat."
The escorting prison car officially drove into the execution ground.
Chen Xiu, as the supervisor and beheading officer, took the lead.
The huge execution ground was nearly a hundred meters wide and only tens of meters long.
They are all paved with heavy iron wood and have side railings as high as the city gate.
There are sentry towers on all sides, and the Yamen servants holding bows and arrows have already been strung, and there are even divine crossbows pointed downwards.
Bang bang bang——
The prisoners, wrapped in shackles, were led into the execution ground one by one.
The executioner sprayed water to sharpen his knife, waiting for the arrival of three quarters of noon!
Chen Xiu looked down at the huge execution ground, and the Hongyun Evil Suppressing Sword in his hand suddenly fell to the ground with a majestic sound:
"Prepare for execution!!!"
