Chapter 352: Demon-ridden
Lu Chuan, who walked downstairs slowly, did not have the slightest sense of accomplishment to scare a group of martial artists who had cultivated to the highest level of three grades.
threw Xiao Er a piece of silver, took the reins, and led the horse forward in the gratitude of the other party.
Xiao Er squinted, and a hidden dangerous luster flashed.
As for reminding this guest that his wealth is not exposed, it is impossible.
Look at the hungry wolves around, I don't know how many there are, and they are eyeing this one, but unfortunately what happened after that has nothing to do with him.
What does it have to do with such a young and golden casual cultivator, who disappears in Xihua Town every year?
It's a pity that the silver is in vain!
Xiao Er carried the cold silver, returned to the restaurant happily, and greeted the next wave of guests.
Lu Chuan's perception is so keen, but he seems to be unconscious, wandering on the pedestrian-filled streets, like a tourist, and like an outsider.
Until, in front of an inn.
"Come to the house!"
Lu Chuan glanced at the signboard and looked at the door of the inn.
"Guest officer, we are the best inn in Xihua Town, whether you are staying in a hotel or eating, you are guaranteed to be satisfied!"
Xiao Er had already approached, nodding and greeting, and even his hand had already grabbed the reins.
The same greeting, the same tone, as if it had been trained a long time ago.
"Stay!"
Lu Chuan casually threw out a piece of silver.
"Okay!"
Xiao Er's eyes lit up, and he shouted to the side, "Greetings to the best hay, hurry up!"
As he spoke, he eagerly led Lu Chuan to the counter, the second in the restaurant in front of him.
The difference is that Lu Chuan did not order wine and food this time.
In a room with a number A, the hot soup that had already been prepared, Lu Chuan took a hot bath comfortably.
"Black Wind Thief, Zhangjiaji, Food for the Sky, Kelaiju, Xihua Town Xie Family!"
Lu Chuan stood in front of the window, looking at the north of the city, vaguely arguable, a few miles away, the mansion that covered an extremely wide area.
In terms of area alone, compared to the Shen family in the capital, it is not far behind.
You must know that this is Xihua Town, the boundary of Yongzhou, a town under the county seat, not Shangjing.
And the Xie family, which is second to none in Xihua Town, is just a local powerhouse, and it is even more incomparable than the Shen family, and there is not even any comparison.
But it is such a family, there are no high-ranking officials in the court, and there is no place where the grandmaster sits in the strong, and the mansion alone accounts for nearly a quarter of the northern city, or even larger.
It can be seen that his family's wealth is huge and his power is wide here.
And if you want to condense this kind of wealth and power, you can imagine what is secretly going on.
Lu Chuan also came for this.
Things have to start a few months ago, since he scared the Gao family in Bohai County, he traveled all the way west to here.
I don't know if it was because of the turmoil in the capital, what I saw all the way west was much better than when I saw deserters in the south of northern Xinjiang.
Especially, after leaving the land of Shangjing City.
Everywhere they passed, bandits were rampant, the people were struggling to make a living, officials and bandits colluded, and officials protected each other.
According to Lu Chuan's temperament, he will never care about such idle matters.
After all, he is just a person, if he sees injustices, he has to take care of them, let alone die of exhaustion, even if he exhausts his life, he can't manage it.
Sometimes, after experiencing too much, I become numb!
It's just that thinking of the sins made in Shangjing, as well as the 100th soldier who once got together for a short time in northern Xinjiang, Lu Chuan tried to do what he could for ordinary people for the first time.
I didn't rush to do anything good, I just did it, I didn't deliberately seek it, I just ran into it on the road, and I didn't stand idly by.
Along the way, he has killed robbers who cut paths, robbers who blocked the road, chased and killed lone thieves, and poisoned corrupt officials.
Almost everywhere you go, this kind of thing happens, seemingly endlessly.
The irritability in Lu Chuan's heart was also like a day by day, and he also asked whether it was worth the time to delay for this kind of thing.
So far, he has not found an answer.
Acting chivalrous and righteous, for the country and the people.
This kind of honor and praise has nothing to do with him at all.
Perhaps, just to be distracted!
"Peace of mind?"
Lu Chuan covered his heart and smiled bitterly.
Once, he could also say freely that my peace of mind is home.
It's a pity that 100,000 iron corpses in Shangjing City came out of the gate, and the Gyeonggi stronghold, with a radius of thousands of miles, except for a few important towns, were all hit by a near-devastating blow.
The tragic situation of casualties and the great losses are not far behind the brutal invasion of northern Xinjiang.
Millions of Li Shu were killed and wounded, many more people were displaced, and countless lonely ghosts roamed the heavens and the earth.
Lu Chuan, who never has nightmares, has suffered from insomnia many times.
A wail seemed to come with the wind, whether he wanted to or not, he would go straight to the bottom of his heart, sleepless all night, or wake up from a nightmare.
Lu Chuan knew that this was a demon!
I have never been taught by the powerful system of martial arts, and I don't know if other martial artists have demons in their hearts or, if so, in which realm they will cultivate.
But he just knew.
Up to now, no matter how hard he cultivated, he had not made the slightest progress in his cultivation.
I want to calm down and delve into all kinds of martial arts classics, but I can't think of any brain pain, but I don't get anything.
The silent wail seemed to haunt him forever.
Like a maggot on a tarsal bone, like a curse!
In fact, he just delivered a message.
yes, a piece of news.
Just like this, it caused a catastrophe in the area of Gyeonggi for thousands of miles, and tens of thousands of Li Shu suffered man-made disasters.
As a result, nothing has changed.
Except for the Shen family being wiped out, Wu Meng being beaten into a dead dog, and Lu Chuan being seriously injured and almost falling in, there is no change.
If we talk about change, it may be that the local is about to move.
In the eyes of those who don't know what's going on, this raid by the Wumeng almost cut off the foundation of the Great Jin.
made the already stormy Great Jin Dynasty almost crumbling.
These local forces, like sideburns, began to probe.
First, bandits were rampant, and local repression was unfavorable, and then several county commanders who took office were intercepted and killed on the way.
In just a few months, some places have begun to listen to the tune and not listen to the announcement.
If at this time, the northern barbarians come to the army again, not to mention the contribution in one fell swoop, at least half of the country will not be able to be saved.
Just like now, thousands of people in the Zhang family were slaughtered overnight, and the villages and towns were burned to the ground.
Lu Chuan followed the clues, caught up with the murderer, and slaughtered the Black Wind Thief.
After some brutal torture questioning, he learned the real culprit behind the scenes-the Xie family in Xihua Town.
The picture is nothing more than a field.
No matter in any era, the land is the lifeblood of the common people.
The Xie family fell in love with the field, but what they gave was a cabbage price, but of course the Zhang family refused.
Even if it is a high-priced acquisition, the result is still the same.
After repeated warnings and unsuccessful threats, the Xie family moved to kill.
So, for the sake of a piece of land, the Zhang family was destroyed, and the Black Wind Thieves were also destroyed, and Lu Chuan came to Xihua Town.
And food is the sky, and guests come to live, which is the Xie family's industry.
Lu Chuan is not a reckless person.
will not come directly to the door because of the confession of a bandit leader and kill a strong party.
Even, for him, it's just a matter of probing.
At the very least, we have to see if it was done by one person, or if the Xie family was like this.
Punish without teaching, do what beasts do.
Lu Chuan doesn't mind destroying people, and the Shen family is a lesson from the past.
Along the way, the slaughter of the door and the destruction of the household did not less.
But the premise is that the Xie family is full of evil.
At least, for peace of mind.
This is the solution he thought of, the solution to his inner demons.
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to have much effect.
It's getting dark!
"Are you coming?"
Lu Chuan silently watched the last bit of afterglow and sank below the horizon.
For no reason, my heart is a little blocked and stuffy and panicked!
Dajin has also existed for hundreds of years!
If it is really as you think, it seems that it has also arrived, and the time when the national Zuo will be cut off like the Great Sui and Great Zhou of the previous dynasty.
It's strange that the existence of those dynasties seems to have been erased.
Some people are aware of these oddities.
Such as the major forces, or wise people, the representative of which is the Wumeng.
It's a pity that the first bird never ends well.
A person as strong as an ugly cow didn't realize that the brothers who had lived and died together for decades would be members of the royal family.
And An Daozi, the master of the Martial Arts Academy, who is in charge of the highest armed force organization of the Great Jin Dynasty, turned out to be the Emperor of the Martial Alliance.
This innate grandmaster was also the first grandmaster to fall before going to the capital to attack the palace.
That day, although they were far away, Lu Chuan still saw it.
An Daozi, a strong man with unparalleled strength in his heart, was seriously injured by a person who suddenly appeared in the palace when the Wumeng side had the upper hand.
Three moves, and it will be destroyed!
Lu Chuan didn't know what this was trying to do, but thinking of An Daozi's previous changes, he seemed to have expected something a long time ago.
Generosity for righteousness?
Lu Chuan shook his head silently.
If he really wanted to say it, he felt that this was An Daozi's helpless choice in despair.
But then again, what can make an innate grandmaster helpless to die?
Thinking of this, Lu Chuan shuddered.
The wails of the dead swept over him again, stiffening his body.
"Guest officer, do you need to prepare food and drink?"
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, it was already evening, and Xiao Er came to inquire.
"Prepare a jar of old wine, three catties of beef, and three specialty dishes!"
Lu Chuan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said calmly.
"Okay, wait a minute, guest officer!"
Xiao Er promised, and the footsteps quickly went away, but he returned after a while, pushed the door in, put the wine and food away, and got the reward, and went away with a thousand thanks.
The wine and food are non-toxic, and even if they are poisonous, they have no effect on Lu Chuan.
Although the food and wine are good, they taste like chewing wax and are difficult to swallow.
Lu Chuan sat at the table and watched the oil lamp go from bright to the size of a soybean little by little, until it went out with a pop.
Awesome and great!
Four times in a row, four watches!
Lu Chuan took out a porcelain bottle, poured the green lamp oil, re-lit it, and the strange green light, emitting smoke, drifted to every corner of the restaurant.
In the strong perception, up and down the restaurant, whether it was a rat or a bed bug, all fainted without exception.
Lu Chuan turned over the window, walked forward like a ghost in the dark shadows of the streets and alleys, and soon arrived outside the brightly lit Xie family's mansion.
Like such a wealthy family, they naturally don't care about a few candles and money.
It's a pity that candles and patrols can't stop the top of the class!
