——Julu County, Pingxiang County——

"Bang-"

"Whoa—"

In the kidnapping alley in the west of the county seat, Sun Dading, an honest county citizen, listened to the sound coming from the dead alley not far away, shook his head and sighed.

For just moments earlier, he had witnessed a local ruffian trick into a young couple who appeared to be from out of town, using their usual tricks. In Sun Dading's opinion, this noise was most likely the gang of scoundrels who were teaching the young husband a lesson in order to rob the young couple.

"Alas, as soon as I entered the county, I saw the gang of scoundrels of the Wang family's two dogs, and the little couple was really miserable......" Sun Dading sighed, sighing for the young couple from other places, and the reason why he had this thought was probably because the young and beautiful little daughter-in-law had left a lot of impression on him before.

The sound of the fight lasted for about half a pillar of incense, and Sun Dading couldn't bear to listen to those wails, shook his head and sighed. In his opinion, I am afraid that in a few moments, the second dog of the Wang family will lead the gang of ruffians to swagger out of that dead end, after they have robbed the young couple of all their belongings.

If that's all, this is not the most miserable, and what's worse is that Sun Dading feels that the little daughter-in-law he saw is too beautiful, even if she is wearing extremely simple cloth clothes, it is difficult to hide that natural beauty.

This is what Sun Dading is really worried about for the little couple.

"I hope those local rabbit cubs don't get an inch......" Sun Dading muttered to himself.

At this moment, he was suddenly shocked to see that the young couple had walked out of the dead end unharmed. As he walked, the beautiful little daughter-in-law counted her husband one by one.

"You're too heavy...... Those people are just ordinary people, don't you know that you have to show mercy to your subordinates? ”

The husband of the young couple seemed to be very unimpressed after hearing this, and retorted angrily, "Be merciful? Am I not merciful? If you don't show mercy, they'll already turn to ashes, okay? ”

"Turning to ashes...... Can you say such cruel words? If the slaves are not there, you will kill them? ”

"Hey, hey, hey. I'm just casually saying, there's no need to be so serious, right? ”

"People, think before you act. Since you said it, it means that you did have this idea, and this is considered that you have not killed the killer this time, and you may not be sure......"

"Good daughter-in-law, good sister, good aunt and grandmother, you will spare the little one, okay?"

"Saying is clear, arguing is reasonable, and the truth in the world is the same. Since the slave family has decided to commit itself to you, you should fulfill your duty as a son......"

"Ouch, Grandma......"

This pair of young couples, in terms of verbal kung fu, it seems that the husband is not his daughter-in-law's opponent at all, and she was speechless by her words, raising her hands and begging for mercy.

Looking at this warm but unharmonious scene, Sun Dading was simply dumbfounded, knowing that he saw with his own eyes more than thirty strong young men in the local area following the young couple. But as a result, the young couple came out as if nothing happened, but the local scoundrels of the Wang family's second dog disappeared.

Oh, it's not that there's not a single movement. After all, Sun Dading could still hear the wailing and screaming from the dead end. He thought that these screams were from the young man not far in front of him, but he didn't expect that this was not the case.

There is no doubt that this pair of young couples are Zhang Huang and Cai Yan, who have just arrived in Pingxiang County, Julu County.

I don't know if it was because he was intercepted by Wei Zhongdao a few days ago, or because of some other reason that is not enough for outsiders to say. Zhang Huang and Cai Yan have changed into ordinary people's clothes in the past few days and hurried as husband and wife. Not to mention, both Zhang Huang and Cai Yan have gradually adapted to this new relationship in the past few days. But it is undeniable that the two are still in the run-in period, so aside from kissing me and me, sometimes it is inevitable to argue over a trivial matter.

Just like the local scoundrels just now, Zhang Huang felt a little depressed when he mentioned this matter.

Thinking that when he and the rest of the Black Feather Crow's brothers were in Jiangdu, they were also tricked by the local Li Xiaosi and his gang into blackmailing and looting in a secluded place in the city, Zhang Huang didn't take this matter to heart, after all, the xenophobia in this era is relatively strict, especially the local ruffians who call themselves Jianghu rangers. To put it bluntly, it is the local ruffians who bully and bully outsiders on weekdays, and even the government will not ask too much about this kind of thing. But this time is different, you must know that Zhang Huang is exactly a person from Julu County, as a local, he is still targeted by the local ruffians, if this kind of thing spreads, not only will he be laughed at by the brothers of the black feather crow, I am afraid that even their black feather crow will lose face.

Therefore, with a little anger at being robbed by the people of the same county, Zhang Huang taught the blind guys a good lesson, and knocked all three punches and two kicks to the ground, and one of the unlucky people seemed to have stumbled against the wall and broke his head.

At this time, the 'little daughter-in-law' Cai Yan was not satisfied, and accused Zhang Huang of not being a bully, because in her opinion, her husband Zhang Huang is a monster who is not only invulnerable but also can perform Taoism, how can he be real with ordinary people? Even if the other party is at fault first, it is enough to show their strength and deter those people, why do you have to knock them all to the ground? If a human life is killed by mistake, even if it is a ruffian, it is a living life.

Listening to Cai Yan's many complaints, Zhang Huang couldn't cry or laugh. The heart said that it was not him who provoked the other party, since his eyes were not bright and he picked the wrong opponent, then he had the consciousness of being poked blind by someone.

Of course, the more important reason is that since Zhang Huang left Guangling, he has encountered too many opponents that he can't defeat along the way, such as the Fifth Gong Yuan, Tang Zhou, Heavenly Sword Recovery, Earth Sword Lost Ear, Sun Jian, Wei Zhongdao, none of them are what he can deal with, so Zhang Huang has long been holding back the stuffy fire in his heart and has no way to vent. Now I happen to bump into a bunch of blind guys, how can anyone not immediately hug the old fist?

Besides, Zhang Huang felt that he was merciful enough for his subordinates, and he only used the strength of one finger before and after, and those scoundrels didn't fight, what did it matter to him? If he Zhang Huang really acted mercilessly, not to mention summoning the demon soul in his body whose strength was so terrifying that even Tang Zhou, Huihui, and Lost Ears would have to be afraid of a few points, just by sacrificing the fist of the rigid body, it would be enough to crush those ordinary ruffians who didn't even know what they were into meat puree, just like when they were in Luoyang, the giant warriors smashed the righteous soldiers of the Tiger Chang Army into pulp with one punch.

It's a pity. Zhang Huang's explanation of his own merciful subordinates did not satisfy Cai Yan. Therefore, Cai Yan had a heart that was sure that Zhang Huang's thoughts were influenced by Dong Zhuo's erroneous and radical concepts, and painstakingly let Zhang Huang recognize the essential difference between him and ordinary civilians at present. After all, Cai Yan didn't want Zhang Huang to take people's lives at every turn, although her longing husband had already taken thousands of lives.

"Yes, yes, I was wrong, I was wrong. …… I shouldn't have taught them a lesson, I should have let them rob us, take everything of value from us. ”

Because Cai Yan, who can't speak righteous words on his lips, Zhang Huang can only use this slightly sarcastic words to express his dissatisfaction in his heart.

"The slave family didn't say that you did something wrong, and the saint was also cloudy. Repay virtue with virtue and repay grievances with straightforwardness. …… It's just that you've done some. Cai Yan blushed slightly when she heard this, after all, she didn't notice the greedy gaze of those bastard boys staring at her face and chest before, if it weren't for Zhang Huang, she alone would undoubtedly suffer a nightmare. But even so, Zhang Huang beat all the other party with his hands, his face was swollen, and his head was full of bags, which Cai Yan couldn't accept.

"Those people didn't even break a single bone, did they? Is this too heavy? …… Uncle, do you have something to do? After pouting to Cai Yan, Zhang Huang turned his head and saw Sun Dading, who was chopping wood, standing in the yard of his fence and looking at them dumbfounded, and asked suspiciously.

Sun Dading was awakened by this question, and quickly shook his head. He didn't want to provoke the evil star in front of him who could beat down more than thirty strong guys with his bare hands.

Seeing that Sun Dading's eyes were full of vigilance and fear, Zhang Huang didn't care, and asked through the fence, "Uncle." Do you know where you can find people from the Taiping Road? ”

Zhang Huang didn't ask Sun Dading if he had heard of Taiping Road, because this is Julu, the birthplace of Taiping Road, not to mention the many ordinary people on the street who are wrapped in yellow scarves. Even if there are three or four-year-old children casually pulled on the side of the road, they know what Taiping Road is. But it's useless to find those people, what Zhang Huang really wants to find. It was a Taiping Dao disciple who could take him to meet the great sage and good teacher Zhang Jiao, not a Taiping Dao believer composed of ordinary people.

Disciples refer to Taiping Dao disciples who know how to do magic, and they have their own special contact methods; Most of the believers are ordinary people who have received the blessings of Taiping Dao, don't look at them as believing in Taiping Dao, but in fact, except for the great sage and good teacher Zhang Jiao, they may not necessarily recognize other Taiping Dao disciples, let alone help Zhang Huang contact Zhang Jiao.

Sun Dading was about to speak, when suddenly there was an extremely heavy sound of footsteps on the main street in the distance, this kind of neat footsteps of at least thousands of people immediately attracted the attention of Zhang Huang and Cai Yan.

Out of curiosity, Zhang Huang and Cai Yan hurriedly came to the main street along the small alley, and Sun Dading seemed to be equally curious, dropping the axe to chop wood and running out with Zhang Huang and them.

When he came to the main street, Zhang Huang suddenly showed a puzzled look on his face, because he found that the main street was full of Pingxiang county soldiers with weapons in hand, and among those county soldiers, there was a burly general in armor who was scanning the people around him with his sharp eyes.

[This guy ......]

Looking at the general, Zhang Huang was secretly a little surprised in his heart, because he was shocked to find that the oppressive force that the other party gave him intuitive was not much inferior to the pressure given to him by Sun Jian and Chang Hu.

"Who is he?" Zhang Huang muttered to himself.

As soon as the words fell, I saw Sun Dading, who came over with them to see the excitement, said in a somewhat proud tone, "That is Julu Taishou, 'Binding Tiger Taishou' Lord Guo Dian!" As he spoke, he explained to Zhang Huang, who didn't know much about it, to the effect that this Taishou Lord could bind the tiger empty-handed and had the courage of ten thousand people.

[It's great to be able to tie a tiger empty-handed, huh?] ]

Zhang Huang said a perfunctory sentence absentmindedly, but he was still quite concerned about the powerful oppressive force brought to him by this Taishou. Of course, what he cares more about is that how can Julu Taishou be in Pingxiang? You must know that Taishou is just another name for the county guard, just like the city guard is mostly called the county order. In this case, Guo Dian, as the Taishou of Julu County, shouldn't he be in Julu County and Julu County?

I don't know if I saw the wonder in Zhang Huang's heart, Cai Yan sneered when he saw this, and reminded, "You still claim to be a Julu person." …… The seat of Julu County is located in Pingxiang County. ”

"Y-W?" Zhang Huang laughed dryly twice with a somewhat embarrassed face. In his heart, he secretly scolded this Julu County for not playing cards according to common sense, so that he made a mess in front of his daughter-in-law.

And at this moment, the Julu Taishou Guo Dian took a deep breath and shouted to the people around him, "Listen carefully, all the county neighbors: the Taiping Demon Dao was suspected of the change in Luoyang a few days ago, and the sinister intentions were directed at the current prince and the imperial court. The Son of Heaven hereby issued an edict to the imperial court to arrest Zhang Jiao and the rest of the Taiping Demon Dao, who claimed to be a 'great sage and good teacher'. This guard gives you a chance to the county neighbors, I hope you can recognize the face of the Taiping Demon Dao, and take off the yellow scarf on your head......"

As soon as these words came out, the people who were watching nearby were in an uproar. You must know that the great sage and good teacher Zhang Jiao and his disciples have been practicing the art of talisman water in this area for nearly ten years, and I don't know how many lives have been saved. I don't know how many people's sufferings have been expelled, and it is no exaggeration to say that Zhang Jiao's status in the hearts of the people in the Julu area is like a living immortal. And now, Guo Dian, who is the Taishou of Julu County, because of the arrest order of the imperial court, suddenly said that Zhang Jiao was a heinous thief, how could the people of Julu accept it?

While the people watching around were in an uproar, Zhang Huang's complexion also changed slightly.

[The arrest order from the imperial court came so soon?] ]

Involuntarily glanced at Cai Yan, who was also surprised, Zhang Huang couldn't help blushing slightly. After all, in those days when he and Cai Yan traveled together. He unconsciously slowed down the journey, so that in this way, the order of the imperial court to thoroughly investigate and arrest Taiping Dao had been issued to the local government, but he had not yet brought the news to Zhang Jiao, the leader of Taiping Dao and the great sage and mentor. In order to fulfill Ma Yuanyi's entrustment to him before his death.

But fortunately, Guo Dian's words of ordering the arrest of Taiping Dao Yigan and others were not recognized by the local people who were deeply favored by Zhang Jiao, so that when Guo Dian finished saying the words that shocked the people of Julu. The surrounding people immediately shouted out in opposition.

"Lord Guo, the great sage and good teacher are the living immortals of our Julu County!"

"Master Guo can't!"

"The court is confused, are you also confused, Lord Guo?!"

Seeing that the opposition of the people around him was getting stronger and stronger. Guo Dian was anxious and angry. In all fairness, Guo Dian does not have a good impression of Zhang Jiao, this is not to say that Zhang Jiao's reputation and prestige in Julu County are better than that of him as a taishou, Guo Dian is worried that Zhang Jiao will carry this public opinion and do something that threatens the imperial court.

Just imagine, when Zhang Jiao's words from the grass people are more effective in the hearts of the people than the local officials appointed by the Son of Heaven and appointed by the imperial court, what a terrible thing is this?

And it turned out that his guess was accurate. Because according to official sources, Zhang Jiao sent a person named Ma Yuanyi to Luoyang to buy people's hearts and attract a large number of courtiers, and even a few of the Huangmen servants in the inner court had met with Ma Yuanyi.

What a threatening sign!

Glancing at the many people with angry expressions, Guo Dian had no doubt that there must be Taiping Dao's eyeliner among them, and in order to dampen Zhang Jiao and even Taiping Dao's vitality as much as possible, he had decided not to delay any longer.

"The county soldiers obey the order!" Guo Dian let go of his voice and shouted, which actually overshadowed the noisy voices of the people on the street: "This guard has granted you the right to arrest the demons of Taiping Dao, but those who wear yellow scarves on their heads...... Arrest! If there is a revolt...... Kill! ”

Guo Dian's gritted teeth and spit out a killing word, which not only shocked those county soldiers, but even the people who were still noisy were dumbfounded.

"My lord, do you really have to do this? The ...... of the neighbors in the county" The adjutant behind Guo Dian glanced at the county soldiers with dull expressions, and whispered to Guo Dian. You must know that the county soldiers are different from the regular army, most of them are sons and daughters from the local area, and it has to be said that it is a very painful thing to raise a knife against the county neighbors who do not look up and look down, not to mention that there may be relatives and relatives among those people.

"Shut up!" Guo Dian cut off the adjutant's words in a deep voice, and shouted loudly, "This is the edict of the Son of Heaven, who dares to disobey?!" As he spoke, he fiercely glanced at the county soldiers who were embarrassed and looked at each other, and scolded angrily, "You all want to be martyred for the Taiping Demon Dao?!" ”

Hearing this, the county soldiers were shocked. You must know that since this is the edict of today's son, if they do not obey, it will be the crime of deceiving the king, and if they are involved in a crime of treason and rebellion by the Taiping Dao, it will be a major crime of punishing the six clans.

The surrounding people were also frightened by Guo Dian's threatening words, and the entire main street was silent for a while.

"Hands-on ——!"

With Guo Dian's order, the thousands of county soldiers scattered and poured into the crowd of people who were still stunned with weapons. However, because after all, it was a local county neighbor, and those county soldiers did not kill as Guo Dian said, almost tearing off the yellow scarves on the heads of the people in front of them was over, even if some of them resisted, they were just knocked out or subdued by the county soldiers with knives, and then took off the yellow scarves on their heads.

And in this regard, Guo Dian only pretended not to see it. Thinking about it, you must know that he is also a Taishou who is respected and loved by the local people, how can he really be ruthless and kill the people under his rule? said it so harshly before, and it was so categorical, just to show his determination to use force against Taiping Dao in accordance with the edict of the Son of Heaven, so that more people would dissociate themselves from Taiping Dao in order to cherish their lives. As the saying goes, when the judgment is continuous, but the chaos is unbearable, Guo Dian would rather bear the infamy at this time, rather than hope that the people of Julu will continue to be involved with Taiping Road because of some ambiguous words, so that a large number of deaths and injuries will be caused.

I have to say that this Julu Taishou Guo Dian is also well-intentioned. Unfortunately, he did not accurately estimate the status of the great sage and mentor Zhang Jiao and Taiping Dao in the minds of the people here.

For a while, the entire main street was full of chickens and dogs, and there were no casualties, but Guo Dian's move gave Zhang Huang a great warning.

"Let's go!"

Taking Cai Yan's hand, Zhang Huang quickly left this land of right and wrong. At present, he is anxious to find a way to meet the great sage and mentor Zhang Jiao, and inform him that the imperial court has launched a comprehensive campaign against his Taiping Dao. (To be continued......)
