Half a month later.
Daxuan, Jiangzhou.
Fifty miles outside Xuankang City.
"The two heartless people all ran away, leaving me alone."
Liu Sheng looked at Xuanyang's position from a distance and complained like a resentful woman.
Just a dozen days ago, Zhen Guogong broke through Wu Sheng and found him and the Chongyang True Immortal.
After high-profile display of his martial arts cultivation in front of the two men, Duke Zhen Guo proudly handed over the two criminals to them, and said a few words to Liu Sheng alone before bidding farewell to the two.
He claimed that he had the mission of a dragon-riding martial saint and was going to the Great Mysterious Western Territory to kill the demons. Instead of following the army, he took three spiritual boats and rushed to the aid of the Great Mysterious Western Territory with 30,000 elite troops.
Chongyang Zhenxian was an old man. When he saw that the Duke of Zhen had left, he was ready to make a move. After entering Jiangzhou, he said that the death of Emperor Longqing was unusual. He was worried about the political instability in Xuanyang, so he returned to Xuanyang to take charge. Stabilize the political situation.
After saying that, he left Liu Sheng and headed towards Xuanyang.
"Oh, I was born to work hard!"
Liu Sheng sighed slightly. In the past half month, his mood had just come out of the shadow of Emperor Longqing's death.
But even so, when he was in a bad mood, he had to ensure the safety of the army, maintain the morale of the army, and constantly apply various acceleration spells to the army, so that he could arrive in such a short time. Xuankang City.
Only Liu Sheng himself knew the pain in his heart.
"It's almost there!"
Seeing that Xuankang City was already in sight, Liu Sheng's spirit perked up and he felt much more relaxed.
As long as they reach Xuankang City, it means that they are basically safe. Here, the army can return to its base after a period of rest.
And he was completely liberated after completing the tasks entrusted by the Duke of Zhen.
"Army, speed up!"
Liu Sheng gave the order and followed suit, and the entire army's march speed accelerated a lot again.
A quarter of an hour later, the city gate of Xuankang City opened wide, and a team of dozens of light cavalry galloped out of the city.
"Is this Senior Liu Sheng in front of you?"
Among the team, a middle-aged man with a ruddy complexion and a long beard emerged from the crowd and asked, and his voice was heard from afar.
"It's me, who are you?"
Liu Sheng's body flashed and he had arrived in front of the army. He stood in mid-air and glanced at the people opposite.
"This junior is Jiangzhou Inspector Ye Ming. Hearing that Senior Liu Sheng led the army in triumph, he went out to greet him."
The rosy-faced middle-aged man slowly floated down from the horse, then lowered his head and saluted.
He is a third-grade Confucian cultivator. When meeting Liu Sheng, he needs to perform the courtesy of a junior.
"No need to be polite, but have you prepared a place for the army to set up camp?"
Liu Sheng raised his hand slightly, and an invisible force surged out, and he gently lifted the inspector Ye Ming up.
Ye Ming quickly reported back: "The Chongyang True Immortal passed by here the day before yesterday. He has already given instructions to the juniors and has already prepared everything. It is ten miles outside the north gate."
"There will be good wine and meat to entertain all the soldiers."
"This Niubi is quite thoughtful."
Liu Sheng's tense expression finally showed a smile, and then ordered: "Okay, you lead the way!"
Then he turned around and waved his hand, and the army behind him immediately followed Ye Ming's figure in front and marched away in a hurry.
Half an hour later, the army had set up camp. Liu Sheng led a pair of men under his command and escorted two prisoners with black cloth hoods on their heads and entered Xuankang City.
Xuankang City, governor's office.
Liu Sheng sat at the top, and officials of Jiangzhou's fifth rank and above sat at the bottom according to their rank.
As for those below the fifth rank, they are not qualified to enter this hall and are waiting outside.
Liu Sheng looked down at the inspector Ye Ming and asked, "Are you all ready?"
At this time, the largest official in Jiangzhou was the inspector general Ye Ming.
leaf
Ming nodded and said affirmatively: "We are all ready, just waiting for senior's order."
"good!"
Liu Sheng nodded with satisfaction. Ye Ming's work efficiency was extremely reliable.
He glanced at the sky and saw that it was already approaching dusk and it was getting late, so he ordered: "Tomorrow at noon, we will behead at the entrance to the vegetable market!"
"I personally supervise the execution!"
The second day.
Xuankang City, Caishikou.
At this time, there was already a large group of people surrounding the place. It was a sea of people and it was extremely lively.
As early as yesterday, the people in the city heard that someone was going to be executed at Caishikou at noon today.
Early in the morning, someone came with a small horse to occupy the best position to watch the execution.
At this moment, the crowd in front suddenly retreated like a tide, and then four groups of murderous soldiers came to a high platform in Caishikou with solemn expressions.
Pushing the nearby people out a little, the soldiers lined up around the high platform, watching the surroundings with vigilance.
After another stick of incense, hundreds of soldiers in military uniforms and armed with knives escorted dozens of prisoners wearing dirty prison clothes and smelling stinky to the high platform.
The humble and sharp-eyed people recognized these prisoners and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Isn't this the acting governor?"
"There is also Commander Yue here..."
"There are hundreds of households from the Eternal Life Palace over there..."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, they are all high-ranking officials. I don't know what kind of big shot they provoked, but they want to be beheaded in public."
Everyone was talking about it and thinking about it in their hearts.
At this moment, I heard a high-pitched chant from the high platform: "Senior Liu Sheng has arrived, and the inspector Ye Ming has arrived!"
I saw, above the high platform, two figures slowly falling from the air, and finally landed in the center of the high platform.
"Senior Liu Sheng, please take a seat."
Ye Ming guided Liu Sheng to the top position and sat down, and then the remaining officials dared to take their seats one by one.
Everyone was trembling with fear and did not dare to make a sound. After all, it was the first time to share the stage with a monk who had transcended the realm. To say that he was not nervous would be a lie.
Seeing that it was still early, Liu Sheng glanced at Dai Yunlin who was kneeling on the ground, and couldn't help but ask: "Dai Yunlin, you colluded with the demon clan, murdered Zhongliang, betrayed Daxuan, and are heinous. What else do you have to say? "
Speaking of which, Dai Yunlin has some connection with Liu Sheng. When Dai Yunlin was studying in Xuanyang, Liu Sheng even gave Dai Yunlin a few words of advice.
At this time, seeing that he had gone astray and was about to go to the execution ground, and that he had become a prison officer, he felt a little sad in his heart.
I am talking to him now because I want to give him a chance to repent, hoping that he will find his conscience and let everyone in the world learn from him.
Unexpectedly, Dai Yunlin didn't appreciate it at all. Instead, he laughed miserably and said, "The demon clan is so powerful that sooner or later the human race will become their slaves!"
"I just have bad luck!"
"The scar on the head is no bigger than a bowl. If you want to kill or chop it into pieces, hurry up and don't waste time."
He knew he was going to die, so he never thought about begging for mercy. Instead, he knelt on the ground and screamed.
At this time, the people below heard the clues of what happened from Liu Sheng's words, and they couldn't help shouting and scolding. Some of them were more polite: "Dai Yunlin, you are a human being and you recognize a monster as your father. It is unforgivable." !」
A bit vulgar: "Dai Yunlin, when you die, we will help you take care of your female relatives."
...
Coupled with the attacks of rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs, Dai Yunlin and others suddenly became the target of public criticism.
Seeing that he was still so stubborn, Liu Sheng silenced everyone's voices and said slowly:
"Senior Martial Saint, I have a few words to tell you!"
At this time, Dai Yunlin was completely shameless. He sneered and said wildly: "Haha, the Dragon Riding Martial Saint is just a deceitful person who steals his reputation. I have not found my second son for so long!"
in him
I thought in my heart that if I couldn't find him for so long, I must have lost my second son.
"oh......."
Liu Sheng suddenly showed an enigmatic smile, and then said lightly: "What if I tell you that the scientific name of your second son has been found?"
