In the evening, the gray clouds dissipated, and a thin layer of red light floated in the western sky.

The color of blood reigned, hanging on the treetops of the big locust tree in the manor.

Pushing the window and looking at it, his eyes fell there, Du Rui was silent, knowing the sea, the sound of the stele was like Hong Zhong Dalu, the tone was as monotonous and poor as ever, boring and boring, like a grinding plate, crushing Du Rui's soul little by little.

If there is no so-called equivalent exchange with this stone tablet, this torture will never be peaceful.

Inside and outside the inn, there was a crowd of people, and there was an endless stream of people who came to visit Du Rui, but their attitudes were a little strange, both excited and nervous, and some people still had a trace of fear on their faces that could not be concealed......

Everyone, Du Rui is gone.

The person in charge of the reception was Nie Yuan.

Corporal Lixian, like a spring breeze, this is not his current character.

In Du Rui's previous life, he must take the grassroots and the people's line, an official, the reputation of the people is very important, perhaps, in the face of the blows of many interest groups, this reputation cannot be converted into power, however, you want to be in the position, no reputation is not possible, in a world without extraordinary power, the relationship between people is very important.

In this world, relationships are also emphasized.

A prince like Du Rui must have a good relationship with the high-ranking lords and super sects, and he must have the support of the high-ranking families and super sects, so that he can ascend to the Jinluan Hall and sit in that position, otherwise, even if you sit in that position, you will not be able to sit steadily. Like Du Tao, the former prince of Zhao, as well as Du Yun, the king of Yan, Du Xu, the king of Qin, and so on, are on this road.

Du Rui can't take this road.

His mother's family is poor, and he is not taken seriously, so he can only find another way.

Without the support of the high-ranking families and super sects, then, you can choose to encircle those inferior families, local county wangs, gangs and even green forest cottages, etc., in order to become a helper.

This is the path Du Tang took.

Under normal circumstances, Du Rui should do the same.

drove away the horse bandits, won everyone's gratitude, and exposed the identity of the nobles of Tianhuang, so that those guys will definitely bow their heads and worship, and after a few days, this matter will spread to the four miles and eight townships, Du Rui will be able to gain the support of those small clans, have a popular base, and have a good reputation, so it will help him rule in Handan Town.

However, Du Rui did not come forward, but sent Nie Yuan to receive those guys who came to visit.

The reason for doing this, in addition to being busy confronting the voices of Zhihai and having no time to take care of anything else, there are other practical reasons.

Those guys who came to thank Du Rui and his party were actually not very grateful to Dade, including the three major clans of Huaishuji, and the reason why they came to the door was more out of fear.

Compared to gratitude, they have more fear in their hearts.

When Du Rui and his entourage were fighting with those horse bandits outside the Yunlai Inn, Tan Er was not the only one who secretly observed the battle situation in Huaishuji, but there were still many people secretly observing, among them, there were three Huaishuji, and there were other bystanders. In the face of the great terror, it is true that most people only know how to run around or deceive themselves, but there are also some people who are not afraid of danger and are trying to find a way to solve it.

Those people saw Du Rui make a move.

Shock!

It's amazing!

Terror!

Uncommensurably terrifying!

Du Rui's shot was too evil, the black fog was pervasive, whenever it was contaminated with a trace of black fog, the person died silently, and the death was extremely weird, with an extremely happy smile, the flesh and blood of the whole body were dry, without a little water, like a dried corpse.

It was more than those people could imagine, they had never seen or even heard of such a situation.

In addition to Du Rui, the same is true of the little novice Huiyuan, who also has an evil spirit, and he is not inferior when he fights with Qin Guang, his age is even more exaggerated, and he looks like he is five or six years old.

Evil Mage!

Qin Guang's voice was very loud, and that roar, even if it was a few miles away, Huaishuji could hear it clearly.

They didn't think that Qin Guang was talking nonsense, and only this statement could explain the situation clearly.

If it weren't for that, how could a five- or six-year-old novice be on par with a bandit leader? How could a noble boy who was more than ten years old be in a no-man's land among hundreds of horse bandits, so frightened that those guys were scurrying with their heads and did not dare to face the ......

It must be an evil mage!

Only evil can surprise people!

However, evil mages, like horse bandits, are also not treated well by ordinary people, and are also terrifying existences.

The evil mage, as the name suggests, is an evil mage, who walks the evil path, this kind of evil is an uncontrollable evil, just like walking a tightrope on a cliff, once the wire rope collapses, it will never recover.

Many evil mages will eventually become evil, consumed by evil, and become demons who kill people without calculation.

Therefore, these people in Huaishuji were very afraid, trembling, and extremely cautious.

In their minds, the evil mage is like a bomb that explodes at regular intervals, not knowing when it will explode, causing misery to the living.

Du Rui felt their fear, of course, he could also come forward to explain, saying that he and Xiao Shami Huiyuan were not evil mages, however, he knew in his heart that such an explanation was meaningless, once most people had preconceived ideas, it could be said that it would be even more difficult to reverse their impression, and now, even if he had a hundred mouths, he couldn't say clearly.

He didn't want to do useless work.

Therefore, he simply closed the door and only let Nie Yuan come forward.

As for Yue Chong, he is not in the Yunlai Inn now, and after he killed Yama, he was sent by Du Rui to chase after those horse bandits, so that they would not get together, lest they anger others and attack other towns.

As an innate swordsman, he comes and goes freely, but he doesn't have to worry about his safety.

Without seeing Du Rui, all the visitors breathed a sigh of relief, and they carefully sent thank-you gifts, trembling and saying some useless nonsense, and then took their leave one after another.

No one has asked about the identities of Du Rui and others, in their opinion, this should be an untouchable taboo, right?

Du Rui looked from the window, and on the side, Huiyuan lowered his head and lowered his eyebrows, reciting Buddhist scriptures.

After a while, Du Rui turned his head to look to the left, frowning slightly.

After a while, the earth trembled, and the floor on the second floor of the Yunlai Inn trembled slightly, which was no different from the previous attack of the horse bandits, indicating that a large number of cavalry were galloping towards this side in the distance.

Jingbian Army?

Du Rui thought to himself.

A large number of horse bandits have entered the country, and Huai Shuji has a communication talisman array, Handan Town and the Jingbian Army Battalion will definitely get the alarm signal, and now, it is only two hours, speaking of which, this reaction speed is not slow.

It's just that if it weren't for himself and others here, most of this locust tree set would have been broken by the horse bandits, right?

"Blood slaughter! It's the Scarlet Battalion ......"

In the distance, there was an exclamation.

Then, there was another round of chickens and dogs, and people ran around, panicking.
