Chapter 98 Dragon Slayer Boy
About two hundred meters away from the majestic Daoguan, two huge Jingguans 12 or 3 meters high stand on both sides of the official road leading to the Central Plains.
It is said that each of them has more than 30,000 heads, which are from the "ideal country" sinners from the sacred war in the deserted land. They do not bury the bodies and build soil to show off their achievements, but directly pile up the cut heads and burn them with tinder oil.
Seventeen years have passed, dust is buried, and the thatch is growing wildly, looking like two huge tombs from afar.
Several small trees actually grew on the grave, and the branches were strangely strung with several skulls. This was not deliberately hung by the defenders, but the saplings broke through the ground and passed through the hole, pushing the skull up.
If you walk near Jingguan, you will see moss covered with snakes and rats sneaking. You will shout in white and silently, and your eyes will be dark and glaring at the sky angrily.
At 5:30 pm, the city gates were closed.
In the afterglow of the sunset, soldiers on the city wall found a Taoist walking around two Jingguans, as if they were doing it.
Ordinary business travelers are not so bold. Even if they are curious, they will only look at each twenty or thirty meters away. Warriors and monks are afraid of being hit by evil spirits, and they will not stay for too long.
When the Taoist priest took out the wine, food, paper money, incense and candle, the soldier immediately confirmed that this person was undoubtedly the remnant of the scientific dog.
In the past seventeen years, this is the first person to dare to pay public tribute.
What a courageous person. Don’t think that the city gate will not be able to catch you if it is closed!
The city tower quickly added a lookout post and closely monitored it. The ear holes downstairs quietly opened, and fifty elite soldiers sneaked out.
When I rushed to the grave, I saw it in a daze.
The wine and food are all top-quality, the paper money burned to ashes, and only half of the three large incense as thick as a child's arms remained.
What about love?
It disappeared out of thin air.
Night falls, and the wilderness is boundless.
The soldiers looked around in a daze and couldn't help but shivered. They searched for it in a fake manner and hurriedly ended.
...
The waning moon is like a hook, and the sparse shadow is hazy.
The garrison commander Hu Buwei of the Dao Pass made a long burp, handed the whip to the groom, and said to the six personal soldiers:
"You guys have a rest."
After saying that, he stepped straight into the Ruyi Gate of the General's Mansion.
Bypassing the screen wall, he did not go to the west wing of the newly married concubine, nor to the east wing of the wife, but followed the veranda of the hand-broken corridor into the Mingtang.
The maid brought water to wash her face and feet. He only took off his helmet and wiped his face. He didn't even take off his boots, so he waved his hand and ordered him to leave.
Sitting on the pear blossom chair and rested for a while, Hu Buwei stood up and looked at the door.
There was no one everywhere, only the stables were shining and feeding the grass.
Grandma, a bear, a horse without night grass is not fat!
He clanged and closed the door, put the bolt on it, took out a key and opened the side room. He took out a brocade box from his arms and opened it, and ten small gold ingots were lying inside.
I took out one and weighed it, and felt that it was only two taels, so I couldn't help but curl my lips.
Daoguan guards the throats of the lost places, and those who sell medicinal materials, ores and wood, especially those who smuggle salt and iron, all rely on the breath of the guard general.
However, no matter how poor mountains and rivers are, they will only have that little oil. When can we collect huge sums of money, open up the joints of the court, and transfer ourselves from this barren land of vitality?
In the evening for the first time, a Taoist priest publicly paid homage to the scientific dog, and he had to hide the news. Otherwise, the superiors would send someone to order the defenders to capture him. Isn’t it okay to ask for trouble?
Hu Buwei smiled bitterly, held the brocade box in his right hand and the oil lamp in his left hand entered the side room.
The inside is cramped, except for the wall hanging a few calligraphy and paintings to fill the facade, there is no pen, ink, paper and inkstone. A small sandalwood table, a wall-mounted ancient shelf, and a short couch for a short rest.
He put the oil lamp on the small table, dragged the pedal in front of the couch, and pried open the four blue bricks with a knife, revealing a black hole.
He was squatting and putting the brocade box in it, his eyes were inadvertently glancing, and he almost lost his soul.
The oil lamp cast a black shadow on the wall, which was ferocious and tall, almost facing the beam of the house. Looking at the loose cow's nose and hair bun, he was obviously a Taoist.
Demonic Tao?
As a general who licks blood from the knife, the martial arts immortal master’s first reaction is not to turn around, not to shout, but to draw the sword.
However, as soon as the hand moved, it was stepped on by a heavy foot, and its knuckles were almost crushed. A cold palm grabbed the neck and lifted it up.
The true qi cannot be condensed, and Hu Buwei's liver and gallbladder are both broken.
A tiger-tail kicked backwards as if he had hit an iron plate. He punched his fists and hit nothing. So he pulled the hand that was choking his neck hard.
The cold voice transmission sounded secretly.
"Boy, do you want to live or die?"
General Hu was not stupid and instinctively gave up resistance.
The other party let him go, leaned over and took out eight thousand taels of silver and three thousand taels of gold from the small cave, and took the ring with a flash of his hand. As for the house deeds, land deeds, loan notes, etc., he was abandoned and threw them back.
Hu Buwei covered his mouth and coughed violently, and wanted to punch the Taoist priest's broad back, but he didn't dare.
The other party sat down at the sandalwood table and said:
"Haha, you are a cruel guy, the master of chopping flesh on your legs. He was able to plunder and accumulate so much wealth in the poor border.
Hu Buwei respectfully clasped his fists and said:
"As long as you obey your orders."
As the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three holes, and the loss of some property is nothing, so you have to expose the matter quickly. If the gap is too big, resistance will be futile, and your life will be lost in vain.
The other party's face was gloomy and he stared at him and didn't say anything.
General Hu was so scared that he clamped his legs.
Xin Tianyou found that he seemed to have become "stingy".
He conquered Han Feng and used the "Soul Brand" without hesitation. Hu Buwei, who was more important, was unwilling to lose his mind power.
At the beginning, he was a poor boy and had no worries. Why did he be fussy after becoming a rich man?
In terms of benefits, it is the individual who has awakened.
In terms of disadvantages, it is also the individual who has awakened and moved towards the direction that Master hates deeply.
Master once said that if a dragon-slaying boy is not dead, he will often become a new evil dragon. I don’t want you to do that!
...
"General Hu, arrange for his confidants. It should not be difficult to cover the blank roads of 100,000 pieces of China before the sun rises tomorrow, right?"
Xintian waved his hand and pieces of paper piled up into a hill.
The sinners in the lost land cannot escape the pass. Businesses and travelers from all countries must prove the official and stamp the seal of entering the pass. When leaving the pass, they can be released.
In the "business" that Hu Buwei takes care of, about 100,000 people are trafficking. But have you ever seen such a big deal? I can set up a small country!
"Sir, it's not difficult. And I will order that in the future, any roads that come out of China will be released without inspection."
"No, I learned very quickly. Let me tell you, how many bandits are there from the five hundred miles from Daoguan to Jiange?"
"Sir, now they don't call themselves bandits, but instead call them bandits who robbed the bandits in the middle. Seventeen years ago, the Holy War Army expedition, and some not-so-hard obstacles were opened. A total of 18 blocked places were blocked, and Eighteen chain villages were established. They relied on commissions to help merchants and travelers carry goods to make a living... After the sword passes out, it is a lawless place, and each force can only be controlled for dozens of miles. If it is too small, it will be destroyed by others. If it is too big, it will be destroyed by the Taoist sect."
"Okay, you look up."
"yes."
Hu Buwei looked up as he said, but saw a cold light flashing in the Taoist's eyes, and his mind felt like it was pierced by an ice cone. He suddenly screamed and fainted.
However, the other party was not sympathetic and grabbed his neck, making the scream unable to be heard.
After dozens of breaths, General Hu woke up slowly and sensed that the "master" had left.
Chapter completed!
