Chapter 26: There is a beautiful girl YYDS!
"Fuck you!"
Xu Chong couldn't help but swore.
Didn’t we agree to take the opportunity to sneak out of the city?
How did it get A on the front? ? ?
This is different from the script!
What's up?
He didn't believe that his side could get through, so he added a temporary scene to divert Fu Yuanlong's attention?
It's just a waste of time!
Fu Yuanlong had no intention of killing just now, and was about to pass the test, but suddenly this happened.
Damn the brainless Jurchens!
Without time to think, Xu Chong ran towards the county government office.
As he could not expose his martial arts, Xu Chong barely arrived at the county government office after a quarter of an hour.
Then I was stunned by the scene at the gate.
A fat body was hanging on the lintel of the gate.
County magistrate Wu Wenjing.
His eyes were bulging out and blood was oozing from all his orifices. It was obvious that he was dead.
On the ground not far from Wu Wenjing, there was a line of bloody words that had not yet dried, which was particularly eye-catching.
"The water ghost came uninvited, so I prepared a small gift for him."
Water ghost!
Xu Chong's pupils shrank and his thoughts became a little confused.
If I remember correctly, Huo Tong, who disguised himself as a water ghost, was chopped into meat paste, right?
This should be enough to prove that Huo Tong intercepted the secret letter.
"So... this isn't a real water ghost!"
Xu Chong quickly denied it.
Now he is no longer a novice in martial arts, and has a certain degree of understanding of the existence of the realms of opening the orifices and opening the meridians.
The simplest point is that with the whole city blocked, breakthroughs can be made in both the Kaiqiao Realm and Tongmai Realm, but it cannot be done silently.
The original plan for Sun Yourong was to approach the city gate without being discovered, and then climb over the wall and escape in one go.
Try to create a sufficient distance from Fu Yuanlong in the shortest possible time, and then look for an opportunity to escape completely.
I never thought I could leave quietly.
By the same token, the water ghost is also at the Tongmai realm, and there is absolutely no way he can bypass the city defenses and enter the city.
Unless the water ghost was already in the city.
But this can also be ruled out.
If the water ghost had been in Canglang all along, he would have taken action as soon as Sun Yourong fled here, and would not have had to wait until now.
Therefore, this so-called "water ghost" must be fake!
"Fake... Could it be?!"
Xu Chong thought of a possibility and hurried through the hall and corridor, going up to the three-story attic in the inner hall.
really.
Two figures were strolling leisurely, seemingly fast but actually slow, along the main road of the county town towards the north gate.
One of them was wearing a snow-white long dress with a tulle covering her face. It was Sun Yourong.
Although the other one was wearing a straw raincoat and a hat, Xu Chong recognized him at a glance by his figure.
The chief clerk of Canglong County, Zhou Ze!
About fifty feet away from the two of them, Fu Yuanlong followed closely behind, looking unwilling to give up, yet not daring to go beyond the line.
After walking like this for dozens of steps, Sun Yourong seemed impatient and turned around abruptly.
Fu Yuanlong slammed on the brakes and almost lost his balance.
"Fu Yuanlong, we are almost at the city gate. This is your last chance. "
"Are you, the chief flag-bearer of the Blood Robe Guard, so timid?"
" I'm not afraid to tell you that I held this person hostage just to bluff you. The water ghost is not here at all."
"If he is a water ghost, why don't I let him kill you directly? Don't you think so?"
"Really? You can give him a slap and try. One slap will kill him."
Although Sun Yourong was wearing a veil and the distance was a little far, Xu Chong could completely imagine that look of contempt.
Every time Sun Yourong said something, Xu Chong's heart trembled.
Afraid that Fu Yuanlong would be provoked into violence.
But the strange thing is, the more arrogant Sun Yourong became and the more she said that the water ghost was not there, the more Fu Yuanlong was unwilling to step forward. Instead, he took two steps back without saying a word.
"Sun Yourong, how I act is not determined by your words, and you don't have to provoke me with words."
Fu Yuanlong's muscles were tense, and most of his attention fell on Zhou Ze. "I didn't expect that in the current Taiping Dao, there are still people like the 'Guardian' who follow the rules..."
“You even know this.”
Sun Yourong's eyes suddenly turned cold. "It seems that the traitors of Taiping Dao are far more than just Huo Tong."
"Who knows?"
Fu Yuanlong shrugged.
The role of protector does not refer to an identity, but an obligation.
To put it simply, every Taoist has the obligation to protect the safety of Taoists, regardless of their status.
This rule seems good at first glance, but in fact, few people have followed it since it was first established.
Why?
Because since ancient times, there has only been one situation in which the strong protect the weak, and that is voluntary.
If you are forced to protect the weak...why not just kill them? It won't take much effort.
Therefore, from the very beginning, no one took this rule of Taiping Dao seriously.
Of the eighteen Taoist disciples in each generation, at least ten would die, and there was no sign of revenge from the Taiping Dao.
However, Fu Yuanlong never expected that he would actually encounter something as low-probability as "protecting the road".
What fucking bad luck.
No, we can't just let this go.
Fu Yuanlong rolled his eyes and said with a grin, "With my rank, even if I tell you by name who defected to the court, I'm afraid you won't believe me ."
"But I guess that there is at least a hall master level. Think about your several major defeats. Maybe my guess is too conservative?"
"You can report this to your Taoist master and see if you can find a few of them... Tsk tsk, this is a great achievement."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Yuanlong saw the man in the bamboo hat tilt his head slightly, as if he was about to turn around.
I was immediately frightened.
"Ha, let's go, we'll meet again if we're lucky."
Fu Yuanlong waved goodbye and quickly backed away.
“…”
Sun Yourong's face was gloomy and she stood there for a long time before continuing to move north.
Xu Chong remained calm and continued to observe.
It was not until he saw Sun Yourong climb over the city wall, fight off several yamen runners and then float away that his tense spirit relaxed.
"Fuck..."
“This, this, this…”
“What a fraud!!!”
Xu Chong was cheering like crazy in his heart.
He really couldn't have imagined that Sun Yourong would overturn the original plan on her own and stage such a drama.
The first step is to sneak into the county government office and kill the chicken to scare the monkey.
Use Wu Wenjing's death to intimidate Zhou Ze and force him to cooperate.
The second step is to leave your name in blood and bluff.
Disguise Zhou Ze as a water ghost to make Fu Yuanlong suspicious.
The third step is to tell the truth or make false claims and to provoke at will.
After three consecutive steps, it was useless even if Fu Yuanlong could tell that the man in the bamboo hat was Zhou Ze.
After all, if warriors don’t fight each other, you can’t tell their realm just by watching.
What if Zhou Ze is a water ghost?
Sun Yourong was not poisoned by the love potion, so if you want to catch her, you can only kill her by force.
The dead Taoist was of too low value to both the Blood Robe Guards and the Taiping Dao.
Even if the probability that Zhou Ze is a water ghost is only one in ten thousand, it is not worth Fu Yuanlong's risk.
This wave of deception, substitution, and fabrication can be said to be interconnected and astonishing.
In this regard, Xu Chong just wants to say one thing.
There is a beautiful girl!
