Chapter 70: Pathetic

The three people below, all dressed in black, had a hideous skull embroidered on their chests.

It was the Barbarian Ghost Sect Li Pingzhi and the others.

At this time, Li Pingzhi was sitting on a chair, and the two fellow disciples whose strength was only in the realm of condensing qi stood behind him expressionlessly.

"Did they find out that his fellow died at my hands in the dense forest?" He Xiaoshi was shocked in his heart, and couldn't help but think so.

Faster than He Xiaoshi, it was Niu Tiezhu.

Niu Tiezhu's figure flashed, floated down from the second floor of the guest room, and then sat opposite Li Pingzhi with a big grin, and asked in a calm voice: "Daoist friends came here to find me, what do you have to say?"

He Xiaoshi hesitated for a moment, and finally slowly walked to Niu Tiezhu's side, and was about to sit down.

Li Pingzhi did not answer Niu Tiezhu's question, but glanced at He Xiaoshi with a slight gaze, and his voice sounded slightly: "There is no seat for you here!"

At the moment when Li Pingzhi's gaze came, He Xiaoshi only felt that a cold steel needle suddenly pierced his soul, and the strong stinging sensation made him lose his mind for a while.

At this moment, two golden rays of light flashed in his eyes, and the pain dissipated in an instant, as if it had never appeared.

A hint of surprise flashed in Li Pingzhi's eyes.

He Xiaoshi ignored his reaction, and sat next to Niu Tiezhu with an expressionless face, looking at Li Pingzhi with an indifferent expression.

"It's really bold, a casual cultivator in the realm of condensing qi dares to sit with Senior Brother Li of the foundation building realm!" The man behind Li Pingzhi suddenly scolded, and then without warning, raised his fist and smashed it down towards He Xiaoshi's shoulder.

When this man was outside the city of Xinyue County, he was oppressed by Li Pingzhi with momentum and suffered some minor injuries, and today he was driven to clean the courtyard of mortals, as a cultivator admired by mortals, it can be said that he has suffered a lot of grievances, and there is nowhere to vent his anger.

After all, this person was a cultivator at the peak of Qi Condensation, and in his opinion, it was not easy for him to bully him with a casual cultivation in the middle realm of Qi Condensation?

Before the fist arrived, the coercion of the peak of condensation had already been pressed, but He Xiaoshi was as if he was unconscious, and there was no reaction at all.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, He Xiaoshi's shoulders shook slightly, and the man was like a kite with a broken string, and then fell heavily to the ground, smashing a seat to pieces.

The man's Adam's apple rolled a few times, and then with a "wow" sound, he spit out a mouthful of blood, and he looked at He Xiaoshi in shock, as if he couldn't figure out how a person could have such a hard body.

Niu Tiezhu didn't speak from beginning to end, just watched everything that happened in the field for a long time, looking like he had nothing to do with himself and hung high.

"Enough, not enough shame!"

Li Pingzhi glanced at the junior brother who vomited blood to the end, scolded coldly, and then looked at He Xiaoshi with a somewhat warm gaze, and said calmly: "It turns out that Daoyou is a real person and does not show his face, since this is the case, he is qualified to sit with Zaixia, it is really abrupt, and it is not strange to hope that Daoyou." ”

He Xiaoshi nodded, and asked indifferently, "I don't know what you have to teach here?"

Niu Tiezhu glanced at He Xiaoshi, and after finding that he was so calm, a bright light flashed in his eyes.

"I don't dare to be a sect, but as a disciple of the Barbarian Ghost Sect, after discovering that such a powerful cultivator like Daoyou appeared in the county town, I must grasp some situations, and I will also look at Daoyou Haihan," Li Pingzhi glanced at He Xiaoshi, and finally looked at Niu Tiezhu, and said in a polite tone.

Obviously, in Li Pingzhi's eyes, it is naturally headed by Niu Tiezhu, who is in the foundation building realm.

Niu Tiezhu grinned and said directly: "I'm just a casual cultivator, and I only came to this city to be interested in the food in the city, and I won't stay for long." As for the rules in the mortal world, we are clear, and I ask you to rest assured. ”

In this way, it is obvious that there is a perfunctory suspicion, but Li Pingzhi's eyes flickered at this time, and after a while, he smiled and said gently: "In this case, you fellow Daoists are at your own convenience, but there is still one more thing to do, and you need to ask for instructions from all Daoists," Speaking of the back, his tone was also a little serious.

"Fellow Daoists, please say, I know everything," Niu Tiezhu also replied with a smile.

"There is a disciple in the lower master's gate, who originally received the task of the master's gate and came to this county town to serve as a supervisor, but a few days ago, he didn't know what kind of strong enemy he encountered, and he died without warning. In this trip, the main task is to investigate this matter, and I hope that the two of you can still provide some clues, and I am grateful," Li Pingzhi said with a solemn expression, and after finishing speaking, he even hugged Niu Tiezhu.

After He Xiaoshi heard this, his fists suddenly clenched, but his face still had a nonchalant expression.

Niu Tiezhu paused for a moment, his eyes flashed, and he said with the same serious face, "We only came to this county today, and we don't know anything about what Daoyou said, and we can only express regret for the murder of Daoyou's fellow disciples." ”

Suddenly, Li Pingzhi's eyes looked at He Xiaoshi and asked, "Then this fellow Daoist naturally doesn't know?"

He Xiaoshi shook his head calmly.

Li Pingzhi was silent for a moment, and then suddenly said: "The two Daoists are not coaxing, right? And there is still a Daoist here, I don't know why he hasn't appeared?"

Niu Tiezhu's face turned cold, and his tone became a lot lighter: "The 'Daoist' that did not appear in your mouth is cultivating to a critical point at the moment, so it is inconvenient for you to appear, is the Daoist friend suspicious of us?"

Li Pingzhi suddenly laughed, and then stood up directly, hugged his fists at Niu Tiezhu and He Xiaoshi, and said: "The two Taoist friends are serious, and they believe it in the next place, since this is the case, the two Taoist friends take care."

After saying that, he got up and left the place.

The man from the Barbarian Ghost Sect, who was injured a little by He Xiaoshi's backshock, glanced at He Xiaoshi with fear and hatred, and then followed Li Pingzhi without saying a word and left this place.

After He Xiaoshi watched the three of them leave completely, he glanced at Niu Tiezhu with some concern, and asked in a solemn tone, "These people won't see anything, right?"

Niu Tiezhu pondered for a while, as if he was thinking about something, and said after a while: "It shouldn't be, this person has extraordinary strength, and he should have something very powerful on his body, if he finds something, I'm afraid he would have done it a long time ago." ”

He Xiaoshi nodded, but there was still a little worry on his face.

After the tea, Li Pingzhi and the three appeared in the Li Mansion.

Li Pingzhi stood on the dimly lit ground, his face solemn.

"The induction bead is lit up?" Suddenly, Li Pingzhi asked in a cold voice.

The ordinary-looking female cultivator nodded, and then handed over a bead the size of a dragon's eye with a dark body.

After Li Pingzhi played with it in his hand for a while, he put away the induction bead in his mouth, then waved his hand behind him, and ordered lightly: "Okay, you have worked hard today, rest early." ”

"Senior brother, since it is certain that Senior Brother Liu's death has something to do with them, why ......", the man who was slightly injured by He Xiaoshizhen's words only stopped abruptly after saying half of his words.

It turned out to be the ordinary-looking woman beside him, and gently tugged at the sleeve of this person's shirt.

After the two of them left, Li Pingzhi, who was in the dim light, suddenly sneered, and then flicked his fingers, and the whole room went dark.

Castle Lord's Mansion.

The thin city lord Chen Shixiong Chen was reading something seriously in the brightly lit study at this time.

Maybe it's because of his age, or maybe the words on the file in his hand are too small, and his thin and old face is about to be pasted on the file at this time.

After a few moments, he finally gave up the hard work and lay comfortably on the comfortable chaise longue specially made for him, squinting slightly, and began to remember how he was in the prime of his youth.

I don't know why, but he always likes to reminisce about the past lately.

Or is it because people are really old?

Chen Shixiong's life, in the eyes of ordinary people, is, of course, a successful life.

He came from a poor background, and although he suffered from poverty and hunger as a child, he was fortunate to have been very healthy.

Fortunately, he met a teacher who admired him very much when he was a teenager, taught him everything, taught him to be rational and knowledgeable, and when he was young, under the recommendation of his teacher, he was helped by nobles in the court, which can be said to be a smooth career in his career.

And he also fulfilled the expectations of his mentor, no matter where he was an official, he was extremely diligent in government and loved the people, and his life can be said to be fame and fortune.

For a poor child, having such a life can be regarded as a very happy thing.

It's just that people will always do some bastard things in their lives, especially when they are young, when they always feel that life is still very long, and even if they make mistakes, they have the opportunity to correct them.

It's just that most of the regrets in life often happen when you are young.

Chen Shixiong is very sorry and guilty now, especially recently, maybe he is old and likes to miss the past, or maybe it was the man's son who came to this county town.

That year, Chen Shixiong was in his thirties, very young, and Li Er, who grew up with him next to him, was also very young.

That year, they had just come to Xinyue County, and the two of them were in the prime of their studies, and they just wanted to do something big and let the brilliance of their lives paint over this county town, which was still very poor and chaotic at that time.

The ideal is full, the reality is cruel.

Soon, the two found it difficult to change the border city of the Proud Country.

However, Chen Shixiong was still young at that time and his will was very firm, and Li Er, who was beside him, spared no effort to support him.

After all, Li Er, who was born even poorer, would have become a beggar without Chen Shixiong's help, how could he be glorified now?

The two are not afraid of hardship, let alone offending the officials and gentry, and are dedicated to the people and to make Xinyue County better.

At that time, those hard struggles, even cruel struggles, Chen Shixiong, who was lying on the recliner at this time, could not remember clearly, he just remembered that their efforts were not in vain, and Xinyue County was getting better day by day.

After defeating the internal corrupt officials and corrupt officials, correcting the mistakes on the route, killing a group of people, and supporting a group of people, a few years later, Xinyue County is on a healthy development path.

It's just that people are always greedy and insufficient, and if it sounds good, they are enterprising, especially for Chen Shixiong and Li Er, who have made some achievements and are still relatively young, they must always be more enterprising.

They set their sights on the vicious horse thieves who roamed around the county, and on the poor and beggars who roamed the streets and alleys of the county town without knowing how to be self-reliant......

Chen Shixiong's right-hand man, Li Er, took the huge amount of money allocated by the city lord's mansion to the poorest area of the county, intending to work hard to make the lives of everyone in the county better.

Li Erlianlian planned the use of the huge amount of money responsibly, and then methodically devoted himself to assisting these poor beggars.

One day, Li Er's head was cut off by these poor people and beggars, and then fed to the vicious dogs, and the huge amount of money used to help them was divided between these poor people and beggars......
