The square was surrounded by people, and four officials were tied to four pillars standing in the middle of the square with chains.
In front of them stood a majestic man wearing a military uniform and a beard, holding a long whip.
Snap, snap, snap, snap...
The sound of the whip in the big man's hand resounded throughout the square. The person being whipped had a stone stuffed in his mouth, and he looked extremely painful as he moaned.
"Next."
After beating this man, the big man took a sip of spit and shouted loudly.
"Zheng Huan, a deputy general of the garrison, was drunk and caused trouble in the gambling house four days ago. He killed and injured many monks. He has confessed his crime and paid the spiritual jade. He will be punished twenty times according to the law."
A young scholar behind the big man looked at the jade slip in his hand and said loudly.
Snap, snap, snap, snap...
The crack of the whip continued.
"Huh? Wutang? Why did you let this guy come to Tianyue City Lord?" Changsheng was a little surprised when he saw the big man.
"Master, do you know him?"
"One of the generals under Mr. Meng is also a fool. He offended many people because of his strict management of the army."
"Looking like this, he is a master who is not afraid of heaven or earth."
"That's probably why he was appointed city lord. Let's go and see the excitement."
Changsheng was still wearing a blue shirt, but he put the Mosasaurus knife into his storage bag.
Not many people have seen Chang Sheng, but everyone knows about his foot-long Mosasaurus knife and animal skin knife sheath.
"Next."
Twenty lashes later, Wu Tang walked to the last person.
"Baizhe, deputy city lord. He embezzled 300,000 jade for reconstruction. The evidence is conclusive but he refuses to plead guilty. According to the law, it should be handed over to the Dynasty Prison Office for disposal."
"Jiao Chao Dynasty? Damn it, you dare to covet my Tianyue City's spiritual jade and dare not plead guilty. You have never seen my whip."
Snapped.
Just as the whip was finished, a shout came from behind the crowd: "Stop."
The crowd parted, and a young man in white robe came to Wu Tang with four attendants:
"Wu Tang, Baizhe is the deputy city lord sent by the imperial government. Have you thought clearly, are you sure you want to surrender?"
"No wonder this little guy is so confident. It turns out that he is our supervisor behind him? Don't worry, supervisor, there is no one I can't recruit under my whip."
Snapped.
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Tang's whip fell on Baizhe again.
"stop."
Guan Mu shouted again, then stared at Wu Tang and said:
"Wu Tang, I know that four of your sisters are married into the army. If your brothers-in-law are transferred to the border towns to defend themselves, what will happen to them if they guard the empty house alone?"
"What the fuck, you piece of shit dare to threaten me." Wu Tang roared angrily, and at the same time he raised his whip and was about to hit Guan Mu.
"City Lord Wu, calm down."
"City Master Wu must not do this."
"City Master Wu, your uncle is the minister of state affairs, Mr. Zhou."
Several officials from the city lord's palace quickly stopped Wu Tang by holding hands and pulling together.
"It's only 300,000 spiritual jade. It can be caused by the supplier raising the price. Why does Lord Wu need to get himself into that trouble."
Guan Mu saw everyone holding Wu Tang and said slowly. Wu Tang stared at Guan Mu, but there was a trace of hesitation in his eyes.
Changsheng shook his head and planned to go over, but was pulled back by Hun Li:
"Sir, this kind of thing happens more and more every day. Can you handle it?"
"Wu Tang is a good guy. If he compromises after being threatened this time, there will be a second, third or even more time. By then, he will no longer be the same Wu Tang."
Changsheng said and walked to Wutang. Everyone looked at Changsheng strangely, wondering what this young man wanted to do.
"Give me the whip." Changsheng stretched out his hand and said to Wu Tang.
"Damn it, my whip..." Wu Tang stared at Changsheng and was about to curse, but he suddenly froze on the spot.
"Chang? General Changsheng? The last general will meet the general." Wu Tang was extremely surprised. He did not expect Changsheng to be in Tianyue City.
"You? You are Chang Sheng, the devil." Guan Mu also recognized Chang Sheng.
"If you answer correctly, you will be rewarded with a small red flower." Chang Sheng smiled at Guan Mu.
"A long devil?"
Guan Mu's words "Long devil" made the people watching stunned for a moment, and then they quickly retreated four to five feet away.
"Is this the long devil? Why doesn't it feel like it?"
"Like? What do you think the devil should look like?"
"Shhh, the devil grows the devil. You are so loud that you want to be torn into two pieces?"
The word "cut the body in two" stopped the noisy discussion instantly, and everyone took two steps back in unison.
"Since you have already struck the first whip, you should not stop." Changsheng looked at Wu Tang and said.
"Chang Sheng, I advise you not to cause trouble over nothing."
"Guan Mu, right? Your uncle is Zhou Yushu?"
"Let me remind you, if one day I know something happens to Wu Tang's sister and brother-in-law, I will have a good chat with Zhou Yushu and you. Also."
Changsheng suddenly turned cold:
"How dare you, a little supervisor, call me 'the devil'? Who gave you the courage? Is it your uncle Zhou Yushu? Hun Li."
Chang Sheng said as he handed the whip to Hun Li beside him: "Ten whips will help him remember."
Snapped.
Hun Li, who had concealed his cultivation, instantly released the power of Xiao Juyuan, raised his whip and whipped it at Guan Mu.
Poor Guan Mu Ningzhen's cultivation, he was whipped by Hun Li and fell to the ground.
Snap, snap, snap...
"Ah~~~~You devil, how dare you~~~~"
"Add ten more lashes. If you say one more word, you will get another ten lashes. Let me see how many ten lashes you can withstand?"
Snap, snap, snap, snap...
After twenty lashes, Chang Sheng looked at Guan Mu who was lying on the ground, still crying and howling, then turned to Wu Tang and said:
"City Lord Wu, you just blew the whistle on Baizhe's confession. Don't forget to ask him if he has any accomplices."
"No problem, General, please take a look."
"Haha, I don't have time to look around. I left Hun Li to find a place to eat."
Chang Sheng smiled and walked out of the crowd with Hun Li towards a nearby restaurant.
"Hi, are you two here? Please come in quickly."
Changsheng and Hunli entered a restaurant called 'Zhixiang'.
The aroma of steaming hot food immediately hit the nostrils. The diners guessed, quarreled, and cursed, and it was so noisy.
"Find us a private room."
"Okay, you two are invited upstairs."
As soon as the two of them entered the private room and sat down, the waiter introduced him:
"Two gentlemen, the specialty of our store is the famous Zhixiang wine paired with Zhixiangxian venison. Would you like to give me two jars of wine and a plate of meat first?"
"Okay, just as you said."
Not long after the waiter left, another waiter entered the private room:
"Zhixiang wine and Zhixiangxian venison are here, please use them with caution, gentlemen."
When the mud seal of the wine jar was opened, a soft aroma of wine came out. It was indeed good wine. The venison is also charred on the outside and tender on the inside, with a full taste.
The two of them were eating and drinking contentedly, when the waiter who led the way also entered the private room carrying two jars of wine and a plate of meat.
"Huh? When did I ever give you food and wine?"
The waiter looked at the two Changsheng who were eating and drinking and said to himself. Then he scratched his head and walked out of the private room full of doubts.
"No, don't eat Hun Li."
Changsheng suddenly woke up when he saw the waiter walking out. His consciousness quickly looked around the room and surroundings, but found nothing unusual.
"Did Young Master discover anything?"
"There may be something wrong with this meat and wine." As soon as Chang Sheng finished speaking, he saw Hun Li's eyes were a little erratic.
"Me? Why do I feel like I'm drunk?" Hun Li said, rolling his tongue.
"Quickly enter my sea of consciousness. Hurry, or it will be too late."
After the black soul shadow flew out from Hun Li Tianling, it entered the eternal sea of consciousness.
Hun Li was also extremely surprised when he entered the Sea of Immortality Consciousness for the first time.
What he saw was still a gray fog, but the immortal soul looked at him with a smile.
"Master, this sea of consciousness?..."
"You want to say that the sea of consciousness is not separated, so why is there a soul, right? I don't know why."
At this time, Changsheng began to feel that something was wrong with his body.
After careful investigation, he discovered that his soul could not control his body.
Hun Li's body fell limply on the table, looking completely drunk. And his body began to sway as if he was drunk.
Changsheng exhausted all his strength and finally did not let his body lie on the table, but leaned back against the back of the chair.
At this time, his soul could no longer sense his body at all.
Changsheng thought quickly, there was no way there was poison in this world that he couldn't sense in advance, so it wasn't poison.
If it wasn't poison, it was either some kind of special magical attack, or it was really drunk.
Drunk? is it possible?
After half a cup of tea, the door of the private room opened, and two middle-aged men who looked exactly the same came in. It's just that one of them is wearing a white robe and the other is wearing a black robe.
"Hei Laoyou, what secret do you think this little thing has?"
"The financial owner came all the way to invite us Nether Lords to come over. He definitely doesn't want people in Nanjiang Continent to know." The middle-aged man in white robe said to the middle-aged man in black robe.
"Don't think so much, Bai Laoming. You can do things with money, as long as you have enough spiritual jade, you can go any further." Hei Laoyou shook Hun Li.
"The gold master is alive. I'm curious about what's so special about this little thing. How about I go in and have a look?" Bai Laoming tilted his head and said.
"Don't be too troublesome. If your soul forcefully enters the sea of consciousness of others, no one can save you if you are in danger."
"What danger can there be? Is his soul power stronger than mine?"
In the sea of consciousness, Changsheng suddenly became excited listening to the conversation between the two:
"Hun Li, when someone enters my sea of consciousness later, you immediately go out and kill the black-robed man in the room."
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Laoming's soul transformed into the Sea of Immortality, and Hun Li's soul also flew out, instantly rushing into Hei Laoyou's Heavenly Spirit.
But Bai Laoming was stunned in the sea of immortal consciousness, because he seemed to be immobilized, unable to move at all, he was just like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
Seeing the smiling man looking at his immortality, Bai Laoming's whole soul suddenly shuddered.
Because the sea of consciousness of immortals is a gray mist, no different from that of mortals. And it is impossible to produce a soul without a separated sea of consciousness.
"Two Nether Lords? Haha, this name sounds more deceptive than the Underworld Secretary."
