Text Chapter 613: When the enemy meets, his eyes are red
In the courtyard of the Zhou family, a thin coffin was quietly placed on a stone bench, and the deep black was so dazzling in the daylight.
Zhou Wen's facial muscles trembled, stretched out his trembling hand, pushed the coffin board open, and suddenly, a familiar face came into view.
No!
The last trace of luck in his heart was annihilated, Zhou Wen was angry and sad, and stomped his feet fiercely, and the hard granite ground suddenly fell apart, and a huge crater appeared, and the rubble splashed and fell on the subordinates who were standing around them, and they were all so frightened that they all knelt down.
"Who is it, who killed my third brother, I will punish him for the nine clans!"
Zhou Wen roared angrily, the appearance of gritting his teeth and his beard and hair was really terrifying.
"Returning to the uncle, the person who sent the body of the third master back put the coffin at the door and left, leaving only one sentence, saying that the third master was accidentally killed by a thief, and someone will come to the door to explain later"
At the moment, only the old butler could interject and immediately whispered back.
"Okay! Dare to insult the Zhou family like this, damn it! While my father and second brother still don't know about the third brother, you immediately carry the coffin and follow me to the county office, the third brother's revenge, I will avenge it today! Take my knife!"
Zhou Wen roared angrily, and the surroundings immediately became busy, Zhou Wen silently glanced at Zhou Xiu in the coffin, and secretly said in his heart, Third brother, no matter who hurts you, I will make him pay ten times or a hundred times the price!
......
"Stains, death is terrible"
"Wow, this formation is so terrifying, there are hundreds of corpses of Yellow Wind Thieves, this can't kill a river of blood?"
"This Yellow Wind Thief is one of the three thieves in this county, I didn't expect it to be wiped out, which official made it?"
"No, I heard that it's not an official, but a strange man, and now he is about to rely on this thief merit to become an official!"
"If there is really such a person as a local official, it should be a blessing, these three thieves are entrenched in several nearby counties, and they have either heard of which town to attack before, or they have heard that the people and horses of the government have suffered heavy losses by their ambushes, and they have been encircled and suppressed for so many years, and they have not seen any results, but who would have thought that today they were all ambushed."
"This is the reason, but don't forget, the Yellow Wind Thief is only the weakest of the three thieves, and the other two thieves have even broken through the county seat and killed the ruthless lord of the county guard!"
"Look, in that carriage should be the hero of this thief."
...
Fenglin County is under the rule of Jiade Mansion, and the county has a total population of more than one million, and about one-third of it is concentrated in the county, which is naturally far more prosperous than Huangsha Town.
The martial arts world is rich in products, and even the people at the bottom rarely have a time to starve and starve, so the people are extremely popular with martial artists, and they also contain a heart to watch the excitement, so that when Jiang An took more than 400 people including three township guards to escort the Yellow Wind Thief into the county seat, one spread ten, ten spread hundreds, and after a while, both sides of the road were crowded with men, women and children, and the number of people was increasing.
There are even those who do good deeds, beating gongs and drums and setting off firecrackers, which is just like a festival, and it is extremely noisy.
Fortunately, Jiang An had long known that it was inconvenient for the three of them to show up now, so he did not ride a horse, but sat in the carriage, otherwise with his moss-like appearance, I am afraid that everyone on the street would be stunned.
It was Miao He and the three of them, riding majestically on a tall horse, facing the warm eyes projected from all directions, they couldn't help but hold their heads high and enjoy the limelight at this time.
As a result, thousands of black-pressed crowds followed the escort team all the way, crossed half of the county, and came to the county office.
I have to say that it is just a county office, and it is also magnificent, and in front of the county office, the number one person in the county who has been notified, Guo County Shou, has led dozens of officials to wait in front of the door.
"I've waited to see you!"
Miao He and the three of them led the men and horses to stop, and immediately rolled their horses and got off the saddle, and respectfully saluted Guo County Shou, but Guo County Shou ignored them and looked at the carriage in the center of the team.
Everyone's eyes quickly focused on the carriage.
Suddenly, a slender and white hand opened the curtain and stepped down from the carriage, and his eyes instantly met Mr. Guo's.
So young!
This was everyone's first impression of Jiang An, but immediately after, several masters, including Guo Xianshou, immediately changed their eyes, because they couldn't accurately grasp Jiang An's martial arts realm, and they seemed to be in the late stage, but there was a faint hint of the breath of the boat realm, ethereal and unpredictable.
"In the Nameless Sword Sect Jiang An, I have seen the county guard and all the adults!"
Jiang An stepped forward, bowed his hand, and said lightly.
"It turned out to be Sect Master Jiang, who was really young and promising, which made us local parents ashamed."
Guo Xianshou returned the salute, and then smiled gently.
Naturally, a group of officials around him also complimented Jiang An with a word or two, and there was an atmosphere of hello, hello, hello, everyone.
"There has always been one to say, two to say, my lords, this time, with the help of Miao, Xiong, and Yang, Jiang successfully destroyed the conspiracy of the Yellow Wind Thief and the former Huangsha Township Warden Wang Pu, and killed all the thieves, and his body and weapons are here, please verify them!"
Jiang An said, nodding at Miao He, Miao He immediately waved his hand, and the simple lid on the carriage escorting the corpse of the Yellow Wind thief was lifted, and the bodies of the thief leader Shi Gang and Wang Pu father and son were all brought up, lined up in front of the crowd, which was quite shocking.
Guo Xianshou's eyes lit up and darkened, and he immediately said to a stout man beside him: "Lord Zhao, it is your job to verify your body, so let's bother."
This Lord Zhao is the No. 3 person in the county government, the county arrester in charge of public security and theft, he nodded at Guo County, and then stepped forward to carefully look at the appearance and wounds of the corpse.
Soon, he came to the conclusion that this corpse was indeed the head of the thief, and the way of death was to be killed by the master's heartbreak, as for the corpses of the Wang family's father and son, the cause of death seemed to be somewhat complicated.
"Lord County Guard, the lower officials have confirmed it, this is indeed the history of the Yellow Wind Thief, it is absolutely true!"
Zhao Xian only pointed out this important information.
There was a commotion all around.
"Okay, great merit, great merit!" Guo Xianshou stroked his beard and smiled, "Sect Master Jiang has eliminated harm for the people, which makes this official admire, I don't know what to ask for, even if I put it forward, this official will definitely try his best to meet it!"
Knowing that the other party asked knowingly, Jiang An didn't break it, and said loudly: "I don't want anything else, I just want to serve the court with this merit!"
"Sect Master Jiang is really fast-talking, if you want to enter the stream, this is a good thing, it must also be the blessing of the local people" Guo County Shou nodded, and continued to ask, "This official has a lot of words, I don't know what Sect Master Jiang will do next if he serves as the township guard of Huangsha Town?"
"Hehe, since the county guard asked, then please forgive me for being rude, if Jiang becomes the township guard of Huangsha Town, he will naturally compete for the position of the next county guard, and I hope that the county guard Guo will not mind"
Jiang An said bluntly, causing the people nearby to be dumbfounded and discussed.
He has already learned that this Guo County Shou is already old and decrepit, the road of martial arts is basically cut off, and he is about to leave his post and return to his hometown to recuperate, so Guo County Shou has already stepped out of officialdom with half a foot, and now he just wants a smooth transition.
In addition, there will be a little quota reserved for the likes of Qixia in the opposition, in exchange for usual, the county guard leaves office, and the above will generally assign officials to parachute, but Fenglin County is not the same this time, Guo County Shou could have lasted another year or two, but because of the practice of the branch, resulting in physical injury, early retirement, so the above special approval, let the Fenglin County public recommend a candidate to come out, as long as the above assessment passes, you can directly be the number one person in the Fenglin County County。
Of course, according to the legalistic system of Haoguo and even the Six Kingdoms, the local wealthy clan cannot serve as the chief official, but the county auxiliary and county arrest under the county guard do not have this provision, which can be regarded as a piece of land reserved for the interests of the wealthy clan.
And the reason why Wang Pu is qualified to compete for the position of county guard is because his ancestral home is not Fenglin County, the Wang family has only moved to Huangsha Town for less than ten years, and Wang Pu's position as the township guard has only been a few years, but he himself knows that his chances of winning are too small, so he struggles to eliminate one of the three thieves, the Yellow Wind Thief, in order to obtain the rank of advancement, but unfortunately, the last life is a whimper.
"What a spirit!"
Guo Xianshou sighed, but before he could say more, he was directly interrupted by a rough voice from afar.
"What qualifications does a murderous thief have to enter the stream?
The scene was silent suddenly, and soon, the crowd was in an uproar, giving way to a passage, and I saw a middle-aged man in brocade clothes, with a cold face and a white cloth on his head, leading a group of elite subordinates, carrying two coffins, and rampage all the way in.
"It turned out that Zhou County's assistant arrived, didn't you take leave and say that you were in retreat and cultivating?"
As soon as he saw that it was Zhou Wen, Guo County Shou said a little coldly, it seems that the relationship with his deputy on weekdays is very average, and even not very good.
Zhou Wen is the number two person in the county government, in the position of the county assistant, he walked up to Guo County Shou, casually bowed his hand, and said coldly: "This official came today, not to quarrel with the county guard, but to find someone to seek revenge, I hope your colleagues don't mind."
"Oh, I don't know who Zhou Xianfu's enemy is, and he made you make such a big move?"
Guo County Shou smiled deeply and asked.
"Humph!"
Zhou Wen snorted coldly, suddenly turned around and pointed at Jiang An, and said in a low voice: "Come on, these people are suspected of murdering Zhou Xiu, the official of this county, and arrest them all, but there is a trace of resistance, and it is not matter if you kill them!"
As soon as these murderous words came out, dozens of elites brought by Zhou Wen drew their swords, and seeing that they were about to kill Jiang An, Miao He and others, Guo Xianshou's face changed, he took off a delicate copper seal from his waist, and shouted: "This official is here, who dares to move?!"
