During the Jingtai period of the Ming Dynasty, the eunuchs were autocratic, and 12 prisons and 13 warehouses were set up in the capital, four divisions, eight bureaus and 24 yamen, and the power leaned towards the government and the opposition.

Cao Shaoqin, the great eunuch of Dongchang, considered himself the governor of Dongchang, coerced the Son of Heaven, ordered hundreds of officials, monopolized power, tried his best to eliminate dissidents in the court, and established the Dongchang Dynasty wholeheartedly.

He set up a private court in Dongchang, inspected the situation of the officials and the people, and anyone who dared to confront him was immediately arrested in Dongchang and tortured to death.

Dongchang recruited different soldiers to form a black cavalry and archery team, and also set up an ordnance department, which specially designed novel killing weapons and used death row prisoners as experimental subjects.

Beijing, outside the noon gate.

Cao Shaoqin sat in the center, the four major stalls were on his left and right, hundreds of Dongchang fans were guarding with knives, and there were 100 black cavalry and archery teams patrolling the Quartet.

On the Xingtai opposite Cao Shaoqin, dozens of people were trembling and crying, these people were the family members of Zhou Huai'an, the commander of the forbidden army in the capital, who were sentenced to be beheaded all over the house.

All of Zhou Huai'an's family members are here, and only Zhou Huai'an is the only one who has escaped.

Two fierce and vicious tigers and wolves stepped forward with a sinister smile, pulled out two teenagers from them, cut the rope that bound them with a knife, and let them leave.

When the two teenagers were released, not only did they not like it, but they were even more frightened, trembling in two ways, kneeling down and crying and begging for mercy.

The two fans were extremely impatient, and one of them slashed a teenager to the ground with a knife, glared at the other surviving teenager and shouted: "If you don't run again, I will kill you now!" ”

The young man trembled and kowtowed like pounding garlic, and cried: "My lord, spare my life, I am just a distant relative of the Zhou family—ah!" ”

Before the words fell, Cao Tian, the second-level head on the execution platform, drew a bow and shot an arrow, and an arrow had pierced the young man's heart.

The fan who killed the person before was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly picked up the corpse, regardless of the blood, took three steps and made two steps, rubbed onto the torture table, threw the corpse to the ground, ripped off the corpse's clothes, and smiled flatteringly at the second stall head: "Cao stall head, please take a look." ”

Cao Tian frowned: "Huh? With a sound, this time he was suddenly full of cleverness, and hurriedly pulled out a dagger from his waist, stabbed into the young man's chest with a "poof", dug out the flesh and blood of the arrow part and the heart, held it in his hand, and respectfully sent it to Cao Tian and said, "Stall, please take a look." ”

Such a bloody and cruel scene, except for those condemned prisoners, everyone present did not change their faces, and it seemed that they had long been accustomed to it.

The head of the second gear used the corner of the bow in his hand to flick the heart torn by the arrow, and focused on the small mechanism on the shaft of the arrow.

I saw that the shaft of the arrow was intertwined, and it was a barb as sharp as a cicada's wing, flashing with a cold luster.

The second gear head nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand and said, "Carry it down." ”

"Yes!" Fanzi was busy and bent over to give his hand.

But the head of the second gear had already turned around and headed towards Cao Shaoqin.

"Enlightened Governor, the mechanism of the canine barb arrow is about to explode, and there is no problem at all." Cao Tian said respectfully, "If this arrow enters the body, even if it misses the vital point, it will bleed to death." ”

Cao Shaoqin said leisurely: "This arrow is just enough to deal with ordinary people, but it is not so interesting to deal with people in the martial arts." ”

Lu Xiaochuan, the head of the third gear, said with a smile: "Dugong, people who practice martial arts will close their acupoints to stop bleeding, and of course it will be a little difficult to deal with them." However, the Governor can rest assured that the Weapons Department is already developing more powerful weapons, and will definitely invent deadly weapons that are enough to make martial arts masters fearful! ”

"Be mindful." Cao Shaoqin's eyelids did not lift his eyes.

"Yes! Please rest assured! The four stall leaders said respectfully.

"Is there any movement around the execution ground?" Cao Shaoqin asked.

Jia Ting, the head of the big stall, said: "Dugong, a radius of three miles, the wind and waves are calm." It seems that Zhou Huai'an is a ruthless person who completely disregards the lives of his family. If we want to lure him into the net, I'm afraid it won't be possible. ”

Cao Shaoqin smiled and said: "Zhou Huai'an's flow comes from loyal and righteous people, since his family is useless, then we will use Yang Yuxuan's family to try." ”

"Yang Yuxuan, the secretary of the military department?" Jarting asked.

Cao Shaoqin said calmly: "These people deceive the world and steal their reputation, and they are extremely interested in kindness and righteousness. Isn't he Yang Yuxuan's favorite general? Okay, let's kill Yang Yuxuan, and then exile Yang Yuxuan's children, I don't believe that Zhou Huai'an won't take the bait! ”

"When Zhou Huai'an is killed, the Yang family army will completely disappear!" Lu Xiaochuan flattered, "When the time comes, the governor will be in charge of the government alone, see who dares not to be long-sighted!" ”

Cao Shaoqin was very useful, and glanced at Lu Xiaochuan with satisfaction, which immediately made Lu Xiaochuan feel that his bones were three points lighter.

Seeing this, Cao Tian, the head of the second gear, said unhappily: "Lu Xiaochuan, have you forgotten that the governor still has a big enemy that has not been eliminated?" Zhang Haiduan, the first assistant of the dynasty, repeatedly opposed the governor, relying on the emperor's favor and trust, and did not take the governor in his eyes. This time Yang Yuxuan impeached the Duke, and this old fox must be behind it! If you don't kill him, how can the governor be in charge of the government alone? ”

Lu Xiaochuan said with a smile: "It's bothering the second gear, but the slave has a plan, but Zhang Haiduan can be removed!" ”

Cao Tian sneered: "Another fabrication of charges? Or frame-up? Hmph, we've used all these tricks, do they work? ”

"Of course not!" Lu Xiaochuan sneered, "If the second gear is in trouble, you still have to use your brains more!" ”

"You—" Cao Tian was furious, but Lu Xiaochuan had already turned away from him.

"Governor Qi," he said respectfully, "the slave thinks that since we can't help Zhang Haiduan in the court, why not use the means of the rivers and lakes to solve it?" ”

Cao Shaoqin's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said, "It's a little interesting, let's talk about it." ”

Lu Xiaochuan suddenly perked up and said: "The slave maid heard that the legendary half-Moro body is in Zhang Haiduan's mansion, and the killer organization Heishi is rewarding the whereabouts of Moro's body in the whole martial arts. Why don't we put this news out on purpose? ”

"Wonderful!" Jia Ting, the head of the big stall, applauded violently, "Xiaochuan's idea is too good, Dugong, in this way, we can't get fishy, and we also borrowed a knife to kill Zhang Haiduan, Dugong can really rest easy from now on!" ”

Cao Tian was unconvinced and said: "This is whimsical, the Blackstone Organization is just a ground mouse that cannot see the light, do they dare to kill a dignified first-class member and be the head of the court?" Besides, Moro's body was so precious that it had to be given to the Governor, so why should the Blackstone be taken away? ”

"Stupid!" Lu Xiaochuan said disdainfully.

"Who do you say is stupid?"

"I didn't talk about you anyway!"

"You ......"

Cao Shaoqin suddenly stretched out his hand, and the two immediately stopped arguing and bowed their heads respectfully.

Cao Shaoqin got up and said with a smile: "The leader of the Black Stone is very mysterious, it is rumored that this person's martial arts are not under me, and we promise not to pursue him, he will definitely do it." Ogawa, this idea is good, and there is a reward. ”

Lu Xiaochuan suddenly smiled, nodded and said: "Serving the governor is a matter for slaves and maids, and I don't dare to ask for a reward." ”

Cao Shaoqin smiled and continued: "As for the remains of Moro......

"It is rumored that after Moro passed away, his disciples burned the body for 99 days and did not dissolve, so they had to bury their bodies in Bears Ears Mountain, and the legend of the rivers and lakes is that whoever can get the body can practice peerless martial arts and dominate the martial arts. Hehe, that's nonsense! The most precious thing about Moro's body has been taken. ”

"Taken?" The four stalls were all stunned.

Cao Shaoqin said with a smile: "This is the secret of the rivers and lakes, except for the heads of the six major factions and some famous martial arts masters, I am afraid that only this governor knows the truth." ”

"When Moro's body reappeared, it was obtained by a luthier who was rough enough to hide the body, and accidentally discovered that there was a relic in the brain."

"Relics?" The four of them exclaimed in unison.

Cao Shaoqin nodded: "Actually, think about it, who is Moro?" If his corpse can still be burned but not dissolved, how can there be no relics left? ”

"After several studies, this person actually took Moro Relic as the core, made the famous Heavenly Demon Qin, created the peerless magic Tianlong Bayin, and established the Tianlong Gate, and since then he has dominated the martial arts."

"I see!" The head of the stall suddenly realized, "No wonder there is such an ominous thing as the Heavenly Demon Qin in the world, it turns out that it is because of the Moro Relic!" ”

Cao Shaoqin continued: "The Tianlong Gate was destroyed twenty years ago, and the Heavenly Demon Qin has long since disappeared, and the remains of Moro were also divided into two in that battle, and since then they have been left in the rivers and lakes and fought for by the world. ”

Cao Tian's face was full of shock and said: "So, the remains of Moro that the world is desperately fighting for are actually useless waste?" ”

Cao Shaoqin said with a smile: "Mo Luo's body was also obtained by me, if you study it carefully, you can indeed get the route of the divine skills that Mo Luo practiced during his lifetime." It's a pity that there is no mental matching, and it is useless at all. ”

Looking at the sky, Cao Shaoqin instructed: "Xiaochuan, the matter of contacting Heishi will be handed over to you." You continue to supervise the sentence, and shoot all the hundred canine barbed arrows that the Arms Department has made, and see what else is wrong. ”

"Yes! Congratulations to the Governor! The four of them bowed their heads in unison.

Cao Shaoqin was just about to raise his feet, but suddenly, the whole world stood still, and everyone remained motionless in their original movements, as if the pause button had been pressed on this side of the world.

In the next second, a whirlpool appeared in mid-air, sucking in an unconscious teenager who was bound by a rope, and in the original rope sleeve, Lu Heng's figure appeared!

Heaven and earth are back in motion!

Everyone was unaware that Cao Shaoqin stepped on it and was about to step down. Suddenly, he found that someone was looking at him with blazing eyes, and he couldn't help but look over.

"Who's that man?" He pointed to Lu Hengdao.
