Boss Qi died under his own sword. The broken sword passed through his chest and abdomen. His body was kneeling on the ground. The death was horrible. However, for the hundreds of villagers, this was a sign of applause and praise. A very pleasant thing.
There were about thirty surviving Green Scarf Army members. They were all tied up and rushed to the open space in front of the village. Faced with the fate they were about to face, they were all trembling with fear.
Most of the entire village had been burned down, and dozens of people had been killed and injured by the swords of the 'Green Scarf Army'. When the fire was extinguished and the charred remains were cleared out one by one, the entire village was filled with wailing and crying. The sound of tears came and went.
When Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling witnessed this tragic situation, they couldn't help but blame themselves, secretly hating that if their martial arts skills were higher, they might be able to save more innocent people.
"Xiao Zhong, Xiao Ling, these people will be left to your disposal!" Lin Sumo said, turned around and went straight back to the carriage.
Only Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were left looking at each other, not knowing what to do. However, they thought about it and guessed that Brother Lin was testing themselves again.
"Master Zhong, what should we do? Do we want to kill them all?"
Xu Ziling looked at the nearly thirty "Green Turban Army" in front of him and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
After all, the two of them are still teenagers of 17 or 18 years old, and they are not cruel and murderous people. More than 30 "Green Turban Army" sergeants are responsible for more than 30 lives. Although they deserve their crimes, the two of them must kill these more than 30 people. It is also difficult to kill them all.
"Of course we can't kill them all, and of course we can't let them go so easily. Master Ling, look at me..." Kou Zhong pondered for a moment and said.
Xu Ziling nodded. No matter what Kou Zhong could do, Xu Ziling believed in him unconditionally. He saw Kou Zhong walking toward the "Green Scarf Army" with a knife in hand and shouted: "Listen to me, all of you. Tonight, Anyone who has the blood of innocent people in this village on their hands should stand up!"
Seeing that Kou Zhong was full of murderous intent, the "Green Scarf Army" couldn't help but feel restless, and no one dared to take the initiative to confess.
Koo Zhong grinned and sneered, as if he had expected such a situation, and then said: "Very good, I know that some of you are still lucky, and you are simply stubborn and trying to deceive me!"
Having said this, Kou Zhong sneered and said: "Since you are unwilling to take the initiative to plead guilty, I will give you a chance now. Those of you who have not killed people, as long as you report them, I will spare them." , let you leave, otherwise..."
Before he could finish his words but he had reached his point, Kou Zhong waved the long knife in his hand, and the bright silver light of the knife flashed, conveying a cold chill.
For a time, these 'green scarf soldiers' were biting each other. The evidence was conclusive, and only six of them had no human life on their hands. This was just because these six people were greedy for money and only focused on robbing property.
Kou Zhong took these six people out alone and drove the remaining twenty or so people to the bankers.
"Young hero, are these people really at our disposal?"
When these bankers heard what Kou Zhong said, they couldn't believe their ears. After confirming it again, these bankers gritted their teeth and spit fire from their eyes, wishing to eat these 'green scarf soldiers' alive. Especially those farmers whose family members had died at the hands of these "Green Scarf Army", they rushed up to them screaming with grief and anger, fisting and kicking, and even worse, they opened their mouths and bit them, wishing they could eat their flesh and drink their blood!
"I'm going to kill you to avenge my father..."
"Repay my husband's life..."
"Give me back my Shan'er. My Shan'er is only seven years old. You devils, I will kill you..."
A middle-aged man, filled with grief and anger, picked up a big stone from the ground and threw it on the head of a green scarf soldier. Immediately, the green scarf soldier's brain burst open and blood spurted out.
At this moment, the blood seemed to stimulate a certain desire in the hearts of these villagers. The grief, anger and hatred finally broke through the bottom line, and the hatred and killing could only be repaid with blood in the end.
The six green scarf knights who did not participate in the massacre of the villagers were now pale with fear. Who would have thought that these ordinary people who were allowed to be bullied and slaughtered by them on weekdays would be so terrifying once they went crazy.
When these weak people looked at them with bloody eyes, their instinctive fear made them feel deep despair, and they turned around and fled madly, screaming.
"Are you Li Jing?"
Lin Sumo sat on the shaft of the car and looked at the man in front of him who was stained with blood, had a gray face, thick eyebrows and big eyes.
It was difficult for Lin Sumo to associate the appearance of Li Jing in front of him with Li Jing, the military god of the Tang Dynasty who would become one of the Three Fengchen Heroes in the future.
"I am the one who will kill you if you want. Li Jing will never frown!"
Before, Li Jing was also horrified by Lin Sumo's ghostly methods, and was even more shocked by Lin Sumo's cruelty and coldness.
Lin Sumo sneered and said: "You want to die, but Lin doesn't like to let you get your wish. From today on, you, Li Jing, will follow Lin as a servant, leading the horse and driving the car for me!"
Li Jing was furious. It was precisely "a scholar can be killed but not humiliated". How could he, a tall and dignified man of seven feet, be used as a slave? However, what Lin Sumo said next made Li Jing's anger disappear completely. He only heard Lin Sumo say: "If you don't agree, I will bring the Jianghuai Army here. If the Jianghuai Army knows that a group of cavalry is dead, In this small village, there will definitely be revenge on the massacre!"
"you……"
Li Jing was furious when he heard this, but he had no choice but to do anything. In this troubled world, human lives were like nothing, and massacres occurred from time to time, let alone a small mountain village.
For the sake of the hundreds of innocent people in front of him, Li Jing had no choice but to agree.
At this moment, Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling led a village girl over. It was the woman who was tied to the horse by Boss Qi before.
"Susu pays homage to the young master, thank you very much for saving me!" The woman bowed and thanked him.
When Lin Sumo heard the word "Su Su", he knew the true origin of this woman, so he smiled and said: "Young lady, you thanked the wrong person, it was the two of them who saved you!"
The village girl smiled and said, "Xiao Zhong and Xiao Ling have already thanked me, and Brother Li. If you hadn't saved me today, Su Su would have had a hard time surviving."
Naturally, this village girl Susu is the personal maid of Zhai Wuxia, the daughter of Zhai Rang, the leader of the Wagang Army. She was attacked by gangsters on the way to Liyang. She got separated from Zhai Wuxia in the chaos and ended up living in this small mountain village. Has been hiding for more than a month.
After learning the whole story, Lin Sumo said: "I'm afraid your young lady has returned to Xingyang. This place is thousands of miles away from Xingyang. Miss Susu is alone, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to reach. And the destination of our trip is Liyang , Du Fuwei’s hometown is not in the same direction as Zhai Rang’s base camp Xingyang. If Miss Su Su comes with us, I’m afraid we won’t be able to see your lady for a while!”
Su Su couldn't help but look gloomy after hearing this. A month of fright and uneasiness, as well as a brush with death before. This short month's experience was something Su Su had never experienced in the previous twenty years. The panic, thrill and fear made her Susu just wants to return to her young lady as soon as possible.
"Brother Lin, why don't you let me and Young Master Ling give Sister Su Su a ride together?" Kou Zhong said loudly, with a resolute look on his face, as if he had made some determination.
"Master Zhong, I'll go with you!" Xu Ziling seemed to understand what Kou Zhong was thinking and nodded firmly.
Lin Sumo stared at Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling for a moment. Lin Sumo could guess a little bit about what they were thinking, so he nodded and said: "Okay, let Li Jing go with you. With the two of you, My experience in the world of martial arts was not delivered to Miss Susu, but she lost it instead!"
Li Jing said: "Aren't you afraid that I will escape halfway?"
Lin Sumo chuckled and said, "Two boys with no experience in the world of martial arts and a weak woman with no power to restrain a chicken. If anything happens to them on the way, it will be your responsibility, Li Jing!"
Although Lin Sumo's words were a bit unreasonable, with Li Jing's character, it was really difficult to let go. As the saying goes: A gentleman deceives others. Lin Sumo also caught Li Jing's loyal, upright, and trustworthy character and tightly tied him to Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling.
After dawn, Li Jing picked four strong horses and prepared to go on the road, while the rest destroyed the traces of the Jianghuai Army on the horses and rushed to the nearby market to sell them.
As for those people, although it is difficult to leave their homeland, more than half of the entire village has been burned down and has become ruins, making it difficult to live in. And the few people who escaped last night cannot guarantee that they will not provoke other "Green Turban Army".
As a result, these villagers had no choice but to bury their relatives, pack up their belongings and disperse. In the blink of an eye, the entire village was deserted.
Looking at the village that was still filled with fireworks, Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling were silent for a long time. Seeing this, Li Jing stepped forward, patted the two of them on the shoulders, and said: "I would rather be a peace dog than a troubled person, Xiao Zhong." , Xiaoling, what you see today is just a microcosm of these troubled times. In those war-torn places, even more tragic things happen from time to time!"
"Brother Li, have you ever thought about whether there is any way to end this troubled times?" Kou Zhong sighed leisurely, "If there were no such troubled times, these people would not be displaced, and Master Ling and I could settle down in Yangzhou City. Live a stable life and marry a daughter-in-law as beautiful as Sister Xixu!"
"Xiao Zhongmo, don't you want to get a wife? When we get to Xingyang City, my sister will marry you!" Su Su joked with a smile when she heard Kou Zhong comparing herself to her.
Kou Zhong was secretly happy when he heard this, but when he saw Su Su's eyes glancing at Li Jing from time to time, the joy in his heart immediately disappeared. He forced a smile and said: "How can Xiao Zhong be worthy of my sister? Only someone like Brother Li can Only a great hero with great ambitions can marry a wife as beautiful as my sister!”
Li Jing heard the words and said with a smile: "Xiao Zhong, don't try to drag me into trouble. If you and Xiao Ling want a wife, when you get to Xingyang City, let Miss Su Su introduce ten or eight to you, so that you can dazzle!"
"That's great! Master Ling, let's see who gets to Xingyang City first!"
Kou Zhong laughed loudly, jumped on his horse, flicked the reins, and the horse ran up the official road and galloped away to the north.
