Pingxi City, at the city gate.
Along with the noise of the crowd outside the carriage, Lu Shaoze also gained a general understanding from many fragments of words.
It's nothing more than someone hanging his head on the tower. This matter will be resolved by the officials in the city.
After all, he is the commander of the White Tiger Guard, not a city guard?
No need to do everything yourself!
But at this moment, the driver Fuji suddenly said:
"Sir, something happened!"
"Um?"
If you can make Fuji sound, things are obviously beyond expectations.
Lu Shaoze immediately stopped hesitating, stood up and got out of the carriage.
However, after getting out of the carriage, I found that the city gate was already crowded with people!
The common people, knights, officers and soldiers gathered together, and it can be said that the city gate was surrounded by water.
Looking up, there was a bloody head hanging in the air on the city gate tower that was less than five meters away.
If it wasn’t Xue Yidao’s head, who else could it be?
Beside the head, there are six large characters engraved with sword energy!
The murderer, Zang Tianba.
"Zang Tianba? That's crazy!"
Lu Shaoze frowned and said coldly, murderous intent growing.
Xue Yidao's death was something he didn't expect.
After all, he is a master in the early stage. Even if he is discovered, he can still choose to run away, right?
But he died!
His head was also cut off and hung on the city gate!
"Haha, do you want to give me a show of strength?"
Zang Tianba was able to kill Xue Yidao because he must have discovered that Xue Yidao had betrayed him.
Now hanging his head on the city gate is a blatant provocation to Mr. Lu!
But Lu Shaoze knew this, but there was nothing he could do at the moment.
Zang Tianba is not a fool and will not stay where he is and wait to be caught.
In the vast sea of people, trying to find an old man who is at the peak of his master and knows the art of disguise is like looking for a needle in a haystack!
Even if it can be found, unless Fuji comes personally, more people will die!
"Hoo~"
"Meng Zixiao once said that breaking the silver in Yuzhou Prefecture is just the beginning. If the martial arts conference is also produced by the Dragon Slayer Society, what are their next plans?"
Lu Shaoze held his forehead and thought deeply. He really didn't have a clue.
The Dragon Slaying Club must have a back-up plan, but what does it have to do with martial arts?
The martial arts conference is about to begin, and the forces of the world are gathering in Huangzhou. It is impossible for the Dragon Slaying Association to have the intention of cleaning up the world.
Let’s not talk about whether they can do it or not. Even if they can do it, it will not be of any benefit to the Dragon Slayer Club!
"But if the target is not Jianghu forces, is it possible to divert the tiger away from the mountain and change the target?"
"Concentrate the imperial court's attention on Huangzhou so that it can act in other places?"
"Made, can't you?"
No wonder Lu Shaoze thought so, it was the unsigned invitation given to him by the ring that made him have no choice but to think so!
Looking at the world, except for the traitors of the Dragon Slaying Society, who would dare to directly hold a martial arts conference beyond the White Tiger Guard?
Even some sects with ulterior motives towards the imperial court don’t have the guts!
Coupled with what Meng Zixiao said before, Lu Shaoze was immediately shocked!
"What is the purpose of the Dragon Slaying Association?"
"Is it to disturb the public order in various states? Or to intercept and kill the imperial officials of various states? Or is it to repeat the same trick and rob the world of tax money?"
Lu Shaoze didn't dare to think any further.
Right now, the Ministry of Punishment is starting to clean up corrupt officials in various states, and people are panicking.
If the court turns its attention to Huangzhou again, the Dragon Slaying Association may really succeed!
"If what I think in my heart is correct, then the eighteen states of Dakang will undergo great changes!"
"Do you want to report your concerns?"
It is true that the chaos in the world will not have much impact on the Lu family.
Even if His Majesty wants to blame him in the future, since the Shadow Sect is separated from the White Tiger Guard, it is understandable that he cannot find out much.
And what he thinks may not be true. Without evidence, would Emperor Wu believe it?
But if he doesn't report it, how can someone from Lu stay out of it when the states are shaken?
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's better for you to take care of this headache all the time!"
After weighing the pros and cons, Lu Shaoze made up his mind.
Report!
Not only do we need to retaliate, but we also need to retaliate with exaggerated consequences!
"Let's go, find a station to rest on the way."
"Yes, give way!"
Fuji didn't ask any more questions. He immediately shouted loudly and rode out of the city with his whip raised.
The reason why Lu Shaoze didn't turn around and go back to the city was because he wanted to think over the report carefully while he was on his way!
The carriage hurried out of the city and went further and further away.
The crowd at the city gate is getting bigger and bigger.
Although most people just wanted to watch the fun, there were also many well-informed people who knew Xue Yidao.
The master of the Divine Sword Sect was so expert that his head would be cut off and displayed to the public?
This matter is unbelievable, let alone that he died before the martial arts conference was held.
For a moment, the martial arts people passing by felt a little depressed.
The storm is coming! !
…
Half a day later.
Just as Lu Shaoze and his party were riding on their horses, three figures appeared on the official road leading from the capital to Zhenzhou.
All three of them were wearing the uniforms of the White Tiger Guards, two men and one woman!
The three of them were none other than Feng Gui, the guard of the Guimen, Jiang Daoli, the deputy guard of the Imperial Clan, and Xie Biying of the Guimen.
They are all acquaintances of Lu Shaoze.
At this time, Jiang Taoist was galloping on his horse while looking at Feng passing with his eyes.
Then he couldn't help but said:
"Mr. Feng, the boss's letter only asked you to go alone. Is there anything wrong with Jiang following?"
Jiang Taoist was really helpless at this moment. As the deputy guard of the Royal Gate, he was usually so busy that he never even touched the ground.
Guarding the secret cells and patrolling the guardhouse are all his responsibilities.
But he was so obsessed that he was deceived by the old man in front of him and was taken out of the capital?
Then after meeting the commander, will he be punished for leaving his post without permission?
Mudd!
The more he thought about it, the more likely it became, and Jiang Taoist immediately prepared to turn around and return to Beijing.
But at this moment, Feng Gui suddenly clamped his legs lightly on the horse's belly and jumped onto the back of Daoist Jiang's horse!
"Boy Jiang, there are people in front of me. I'm not good at using force. You have to protect me~"
Looking at the old man lying in his arms, Jiang Taoist felt like crying without tears.
It’s a special grandma’s. If it’s Miss Xie, he can reluctantly hold her in his arms!
But you are an old man, are you making trouble?
Eh~
His whole body shivered, and Jiang Taoist was not sure what to do to Mr. Feng.
Don't look at what this old man said about not being good at using force.
But if there really was a fight, Jiang Taoist was sure that he would be the one who died!
"Mr. Feng, the front is empty. Where is there anyone? Don't scare me?"
"Shh, it's coming!"
Sure enough, as soon as Feng Gui finished speaking, a figure appeared on the official road in the distance.
The person who came was a young man about seventeen or eighteen years old.
The young man is holding a cattail leaf fan woven from weeds and wearing a long gown that has been washed, white and covered with patches.
Although it looks poor, it is extremely clean and tidy!
"Xiaosheng Fengyun Town Lu Zixian has met several adults."
