"W-What? Why is this little beast so powerful? The fat thief, who had been the most arrogant before, saw the scene of his companion being killed, his eyes widened in shock, and he showed a look of disbelief. Most people are inevitably judged by their appearance, he just judged Zhao Zheng's strength by visual inspection, so he didn't take such a young man in his eyes. But as soon as he got started, he realized that he was wrong, and it was a big mistake, Zhao Zheng showed strength far beyond his imagination, and even exceeded the limit of what he could evaluate.

Harnessing several swords to kill people in the air, how many heavenly martial artists can do this?

Just as surprised as the fat thieves were the rest of the bandits, and the expressions on their faces also changed dramatically, and their mouths were open enough to stuff eggs into them.

The fierceness of Zhao Zheng's body was in stark contrast to the astonishment of the bandits, his goal was extremely clear, without any hesitation, and he would not be disturbed by any external objects. When many bandits were surprised, his offensive did not slow down even a little, it was still as fast as lightning and as fierce as an angry tiger.

"Whoosh ......"

The eight swords rubbed out a sound of breaking the air, and attacked the bandits at a tricky and fierce angle, like a tiger entering a wolf pack, and launched a merciless killing. The blade of the sword cut off the heads and limbs one by one, causing the bodies of the thieves to split in two or even into three, and the severed parts flew out drenched in blood and then fell to the ground.

Yesterday, this Wujia Village was purgatory.

Today, this Wujia Village is still purgatory!

The difference is that yesterday it was purgatory for the villagers, today it is purgatory for the bandits.

"Ah!!h

"My arm! My arm! ”

"Idea, this kid is so scary!"

The bandits let out a burst of screams, the injured people turned on their horses, and the uninjured people were also frightened to stay on the spot, and those who reacted quickly had the intention of retreating and moved the idea of escaping.

"If the sky doesn't report to me, you will all die today!" Zhao Zhengqing snorted, pinched his palm into a finger, and swung it forward, like a general on the battlefield, commanding the eight swords to continue to kill.

The sword, which had been weakened, was rejuvenated under this finger, regaining its previous powerful strength, bursting out with dazzling golden light, and flying towards the bandits who were still alive one after another. This time, more bandits were unlucky, including the fat bandit. His previous arrogant words obviously angered Zhao Zheng and laid the groundwork for his tragic death, and as many as three swords flew towards him directly, cutting him into three parts in the upper, middle and lower ways.

Blood, limbs, and fat spilled out of the fat flew and fell to the ground together, smearing the ugliest picture in the world.

As a chivalrous man, it is to erase these remnants of the dregs that have brought disaster to the world and create ugly pictures like this.

It is precisely because of the clean courage that we can face these ugliness without being polluted.

Kill, end. The blood rain was dripping on the ground, and the bandits who were still alive before were only three people left at this time. It's not that Zhao Zheng's subordinates showed mercy, nor did he miss, but he deliberately left three live mouths in order to ask the news he wanted to know. Although his chest was filled with volcanic eruption-like anger and cold-like killing intent, he was not carried away by these emotions and still maintained his sanity.

It's far better to leave a few alive than to kill them all.

Eight swords formed a circle, surrounding the three remaining bandits to prevent them from escaping. The three of them looked at the golden sword in front of them, feeling the cold killing intent coming to their faces, and they all stood in place in fright, and one of them was so frightened that he peed his pants.

Zhao Zheng, who had a few points of blood sprayed on his face, slowed down his pace and walked towards the three thieves step by step, as if he was stepping on the hearts of the three bandits, and every step would make the three of them tremble.

"I asked, and you answered. If you don't answer, you die, and if you lie, you die. Do you understand? Zhao Zheng asked slowly and briefly, his voice colder than the winter wind, penetrating through the marrow and soul of the three bandits.

At the moment of crisis, people seemed to react a little faster than usual, and the three of them nodded their heads as if they were pounding garlic, especially the thief who peed his pants.

"I just heard your conversation, and it seems that you have attacked not only this village, but also other villages, right?" Zhao Zheng asked in a cold voice.

"Yes, the lord of the village gave an order, and sent many brothers to let everyone attack the surrounding villages at the same time, Wujia Village is only one of them, except for Wujia Village......" One of the bandits hurriedly replied, and told the rest of the victimized villages.

Although I haven't seen the other villages with my own eyes, I think the situation should be similar to Wujia Village, and these villages should have been destroyed in one fell swoop.

How many people will die?

How many villagers will die?

Zhao Zheng does not know.

Next, he asked other important questions, such as the reason why the lord of Yuezhao Mountain ordered the attack on the village, the strength of Yuezhao Mountain, and the next target of Yuezhao Mountain.

The three thieves answered one by one, but they were just small minions, and their knowledge of the situation was actually very limited, and sometimes they couldn't answer even if they wanted to.

Through the dictation of these three bandits, Zhao Zheng asked for most of the information he wanted to know.

Not long ago, the Kingdom of Heaven and Nation had sent an envoy to visit Mount Yuezhao, and sent four large boxes of treasures, as well as a letter of unknown content. This incident indirectly proves that Yuezhao Mountain's abnormal behavior is related to Tianluo Kingdom, if it is said that there is no cat between the two, it is really a ghost who does not believe it.

As for the strength of Yuezhao Mountain, Zhao Zheng already knew it, and asked again just to further confirm it, and to test whether a few thieves dared to lie.

There are a total of five village owners in Yuezhao Mountain, the name of the big village is Zou Tianjin, and the remaining four village owners also have their own names, each with different degrees of ability. Zou Tianjin, the owner of the village, can only be said to be ordinary in terms of martial arts, and the reason why he can mix with the position of the owner of the village is because of some other reasons, rather than relying on force alone.

Yuezhao Mountain was not a cottage before this, but an ordinary mountain, which belonged to Zou Tianjin's private property. Later, Zou Tianjin, for various purposes, recruited troops and horses on the mountain, and recruited a group of warriors to serve him, which formed an iron bucket-like cottage. In addition, Zou Tianjin, as his name suggests, has a splendid mind and outstanding literary talents, and is quite good in this regard, which is also one of the important reasons why he can become the owner of Dazhai.

As for the other four village masters, they all took the martial arts route, one was stronger than the other, and there was even no shortage of Nine Heavenly Martial Artists, which was very tricky.

Yuezhaoshan's plan this time was obviously premeditated, and raiding the surrounding villages was only the first step, and the next step would be to expand the scope of the attack, and instead attack villages farther away, even a nearby town called "Extreme Far Town". As for who to attack first and who to attack later, these minions on the cottage don't know and can't say.

The current situation is quite grim, several surrounding villages and towns are in a precarious state, Zhao Zheng's strength alone is simply not enough to hold so many places, and it is necessary to unite the local yamen and officers and soldiers.

Zhao Zheng thought about it for a while, and decided to go to "Jiyuan County" to take a trip to the official yamen, and meet with the people of the official government to see if they could reach a consensus. As for Xiaodouding's mother and daughter, he can only let it go for the time being, after all, the priorities are urgent, and the overall situation must be the priority. If you want to come to Xiaodouding's mother and daughter to live in the basement, there will be no big problem, even if the thieves come again, they will not find their mother and daughter, but there is no need to worry too much.

"The three of you take a horse by yourself, come with me to Jiyuan County for a trip, remember not to play any tricks on the way, if there is a slight change, don't blame me for the ruthlessness of the sword." Zhao Zheng coldly commanded, grabbed the three horses that had not run far, and handed them over to the three bandits to ride.

These three people now only have the share of being slaughtered, how dare they talk nonsense, and obediently ride on the horse.

Zhao Zheng did not ride a horse, but carried light skills, and rushed to Jiyuan County with Ah Bao one after the other, escorting the three thieves.

Halfway through, one of the thieves saw that Zhao Zheng was revealing the gap in his back, and he had an evil thought, and took out a hidden weapon dart to come out, and his intention was self-evident. But before he could knock the dart out, his throat was cut by a sword qi and he fell to the ground. From beginning to end, Zhao Zheng didn't even bother to turn his head back, and he was tired of hurrying.

Seeing this, the remaining two thieves learned to be obedient thoroughly, and did not dare to have any more crooked thoughts.

After rushing for more than an hour, Zhao Zheng and his party finally arrived in Jiyuan County.

This is the largest county in the local area, but it is not particularly large, it can only be said that it is average, and there is not even a city wall around, which is much worse than Qibao County. It is absolutely wishful thinking to expect such a small county town to compete with Yuezhao Mountain, but there is no other better choice at the moment. Before attracting a large number of troops or heroes in the rivers and lakes, they can only rely on the officers and soldiers in this county to help.

Zhao Zheng asked passers-by about the location of the yamen, escorted the two thieves over, and beat the drum at the yamen to sound the grievances according to the process of reporting to the official.

The two officials immediately stepped forward to inquire, and Zhao Zhengyu made it clear that he had come and called the two thieves over. The two officials were taken aback when they heard this, looked at each other with a look of horror, and then ran back to the yamen and informed the county magistrate of the incident.

There was such a big movement in Yuezhao Mountain, which had already alarmed Jiyuan County, and the locals were panicked, and the grass and trees were all soldiers. Therefore, Zhao Zheng's arrest of the bandits is really a major event that cannot be ignored for the local yamen.

The county magistrate soon sent someone to invite Zhao Zheng into the lobby, and the officials on both sides beat the water and fire sticks, and recited mightily, but it was quite solemn. The county magistrate sat on the chair at this time, patted the shocked wood, and asked Zhao Zheng, "Who is down there?" ”

"Lord Qiyu, the grass people's name is Zhao Zheng, yesterday passing by Wujia Village, seeing the corpses in the village all over the field, very surprised, looking for a survivor to ask about the experience, from his mouth to learn that such a trip was done by the bandits on the Yuezhao Mountain. I have martial arts in my body, and I am well versed in the teachings of drawing a sword to help each other when I see injustice, so I stayed in the village and waited for the bandits to come and commit murder again. The bandits on the Yuezhao Mountain were really domineering, and only one day later, they came to Wujia Village again to commit murder. I was already furious, and I killed several thieves and captured two alive, so I came to send them to the government and asked my lord to decide. Zhao Zheng clasped his hands into fists, and Lang Lang replied.

The two thieves had been cleaned up and obeyed, and they knelt at Zhao Zheng's feet at this time, not even daring to breathe.

The county magistrate stroked his dog oil beard, squinted at the two thieves, and asked, "You two are the thieves on Yuezhao Mountain?" ”

The two thieves obediently said yes and did not dare to play tricks.

"I haven't told you what you know, sir." Zhao Zheng shouted in a deep voice.

The two thieves shrank their necks in fright, and repeated what they had said to Zhao Zheng before, and they no longer had the arrogance they had when they robbed homes before. The information they gave must be very useful to the government.

After listening to the county order, he fell silent, quickly brushing a pinch of dog oil on his chin, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Zhao Zheng had a plan in his heart, and he didn't be polite to the county order, so he directly proposed: "My lord, the situation in the surrounding villages is very bad, and the local government is unable to compete with Yuezhao Mountain. In my opinion, it is time to send people to move troops for help as soon as possible, and to send people from several villages to temporarily take people from several villages to live in the county seat temporarily, so that these villagers will not be poisoned by bandits. These bandits are so arrogant that they dare to commit murder in broad daylight, and I am willing to sneak into Yuezhao Mountain alone tonight to teach them a little lesson, frustrate their spirit, and let them know that they are powerful. Although this can't hit Yuezhao Mountain hard, it can also play a role in knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger, making them restrain and divert their attention. ”

But all the local people know the power of this gang of bandits in Yuezhao Mountain, and they are afraid of them one by one. When everyone heard that Zhao Zheng was so arrogant and claimed that he wanted to enter Yuezhao Mountain alone, they were all a little surprised, and they looked at Zhao Zheng in surprise.

In this hall, the one with the highest martial arts and the most extensive knowledge is the head catcher who stands beside the county commander. This person was a middle-aged man, tall and strong, with a square face, and asked Zhao Zheng: "This young man, listening to your tone, you should have some ability, I don't know how many heavens I have cultivated?" ”

"Yaeten." Zhao Zheng replied simply.

"Yaeten? So powerful? The head catcher gasped, and his face suddenly became exciting, obviously he didn't expect Zhao Zheng to have such a cultivation, "No wonder you dare to speak wildly, and you want to go to Yuezhao Mountain alone." ”

"I've been wandering the rivers and lakes for some years, and I'm a little famous. At the beginning, I once participated in the Zichu Sword Competition, and won the Zichu Sword in one fell swoop. Later, I joined the Taishan Sect and helped the Taishan Sect settle the grievances with the Three Swords Sect for many years. Zhao Zheng further indicated his identity, the reason why he said these things was not to show off, but to gain the recognition and trust of the yamen.

In this situation, he must show his identity, only in this way can he speak with weight, otherwise, the yamen will only treat him as a strong man who acts bravely in the face of righteousness, and everything he says is light air.

"I remember, it turns out that you are the Zhao Zheng who won the Zichu Sword and brought down the Three Swords Sect Sect Leader Zhuo Hong!" The head catcher's eyes lit up, he thought about it, walked around the table, walked quickly to Zhao Zheng, stretched out a pair of calloused hands, grabbed Zhao Zheng's hand, and shook it twice, looking very respectful, "Disrespectful, disrespectful, I really didn't expect to meet a young man like you in this kind of poor country." ”

The shadow of people's famous trees, and the celebrities of the rivers and lakes are shining gold everywhere they go. In ancient times, the news was blocked, and the speed of spreading news was very slow, and Zhao Zhengda broke the Yue Palace, killed Kong Yunjie, and rescued Princess Zhaoli The matter has not yet reached here. If the head catcher in front of him knew these things, he would have to go to a higher level for Zhao Zheng's respect.

The officials on both sides are also half of the people in the rivers and lakes, and they often gossip about what happened on the rivers and lakes, and they have heard a little about Zhao Zhengjun. Seeing Zhao Zheng himself today, all the officials were a little excited, and they unconsciously moved forward one by one, wanting to get close to Zhao Zhengtao.

"It turns out that you are the rising sun. Zhao Zheng, I've heard about you, you are really a young man. ”

"Is the Zichu Sword hanging on your waist? Tsk, this sword is beautiful. ”

"Is this Zichu Sword? Today is finally an eye-opener. ”

The officials insisted on their own words, and the scene was a little chaotic.

Seeing this, the county magistrate felt a little unreasonable, coughed lightly twice, and knocked on the startling wood lightly, which calmed down the noise in the lobby.

"Zhao Shaoxia, thank you for your help this time, killed several bandits, and captured two bandits and sent them here. On behalf of the people of this land and water, I would like to pay my respects to you. As for the few proposals you gave before, this official will also consider them carefully. The county magistrate changed his name when he spoke, and his tone became polite by three points, and he lost his previous official position.

"I don't just think about it, I want you to do something right away. You also heard the words of these two people just now, Yuezhao Mountain may attack the surrounding villages at any time, and may even attack this town. If you don't hurry up, I'm afraid it'll be too late. Zhao Zheng didn't give up.

"Zhao Shaoxia, in fact, this official has already taken action, before you came here, I had already sent two groups of people, let one group rush to the 'Iron Gate Pass' to move troops for help, and let the other group strengthen the guard in the town. With the power of my small county order, that's all I can do. If you force me to do other things, I'm afraid that I will also have more than enough heart and not enough power. After all, if you search the entire Far Away County, you will never find a second warrior like you who can fight well. The prefectural order explained.

"What about the evacuation of other villagers?"

"This matter ......," the county magistrate looked embarrassed, "I didn't do it, after all, this county has limited manpower, only a few hundred servants, it would be good to be able to defend this county, how can I have the spare strength to protect those villages." ”

"Even if they can't protect them, they should send people to evacuate the villagers, so that they can leave their hometowns as soon as possible and rush to a larger county seat, or to their own county." Zhao Zheng proposed.

The county order obviously didn't plan to do this before, and he opened his mouth to refute, but when he saw Zhao Zheng's sword-like touch, he swallowed his words back and said vaguely: "Okay." Just do what you want, and I'll send people to deliver letters to a few villages that haven't been poisoned yet, so that the villagers there can be evacuated and relocated as soon as possible. ”

Zhao Zheng nodded with satisfaction and had nothing else to say.

At this moment, the sound of drumming sounded again at the yamen, and I don't know who sounded the "drum of injustice".
