Chapter 222: Zuo Du Du

Countless torches lit up the dark night sky, and the frightened faces of the people who were surrounded were clearly reflected.

The soldiers, all dressed in armor and covered with a thick cloth and with only two eyes exposed, stood behind their shields and aimed their lit bows and arrows at the town in the shield, waiting for an order to set fire to the town and kill people

The people in the shields seemed to know their fate, and their cries of despair were like ghosts crying wolf, tearing their hearts

"Let me out, I didn't dye the sky 'flowers'"

"I'm not going out, let my child live"

"Let me out, don't burn me"

There were even some emotionally 'excited' men who climbed on their shields in desperation and scolded desperately: "You beasts, you don't have 'sex', you will definitely go to eighteen layers of hell."

But then he was 'shot' by the soldier with an arrow, and he died with anger on his face.

Again and again, the soldiers 'shot' those who tried to climb over their shields, but in a moment the front of the shields was littered with corpses, and the air was filled with the smell of blood

When Jiang Ruonan had ever seen such a situation, he only felt dizzy for a while, his feet were weak, and then there was an anger that rushed straight into his head

She rushed forward and pushed away the soldiers in front of her who were 'shooting' arrows, shouting hysterically: "Stop, stop me, what are you doing"

When the soldiers who were pushed away saw that it was a 'female' person, they were a little stunned for a while, and they couldn't figure out Jiang Ruonan's origin, and they didn't dare to act rashly. Liu Zijin was afraid that Jiang Ruonan was in danger, so he rushed up, pulled Jiang Ruonan away, and said loudly: "Ruolan, it's dangerous here, don't you want to die?" ”

Jiang Ruonan looked back at him, his face was as white as snow, and he said loudly: "Imperial Doctor Liu, you know, you shouldn't do this, these people obviously have hope for life, they shouldn't die so innocently, we know this, how can we watch the tragedy happen."

After speaking, Jiang Ruonan pushed him away, and pushed away several soldiers who were 'shooting' arrows next to him, and shouted: "Who is in charge here, I want to see the person in charge here, stop, all stop."

Seeing this, Liu Zijin was proud in his heart, turned around, and said loudly: "I am Imperial Doctor Liu, I want to see Zuo Dudu"

Because of Jiang Ruonan's troublemaking, there was a gap in the encirclement, and two people broke through from this gap, and they were about to escape, when suddenly there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves from nowhere, and then, a loud shout almost suppressed all the sounds

"Who dares to make trouble here?"

As soon as the words fell, there was a roar of arrows in the air, and in the next second, three long arrows broke through the air, quite thunderous

It was just a blink of an eye, and the first two 'shots' into the hearts of the two fleeing people, neither of them said a word, and they were killed immediately, and the corpses flew into the shield because of the residual momentum of the arrows, bringing a rain of blood

And the third arrow went towards Jiang Ruonan, forming an arc, and pierced Jiang Ruonan's feet fiercely, the arrow sank deep into the soil, and the aftershocks of the arrow tail continued

One of the thoughts that came to Jiang Ruonan's mind was that this person was so 'fine' and accurate in archery, and he had terrible arm strength

She looked up and looked at the passers, and saw a large brown horse galloping towards him, and the figure of the horse was very burly, and as he drew nearer, the light of the fire gradually illuminated his countenance

Evil spirits

This is Jiang Ruonan's first impression of him,

I saw that the person who came was dressed in armor, flickering in the firelight. He looks like he is in his thirties, the lines on his face are like a knife, his nose is unusually high and 'straight', and his eyes are 'yin' and full of murderous energy

The man walked to Jiang Ruonan, who was three meters away from Jiang Ruonan, and then pulled the horse, the horse roared, and the two hooves in front of him were raised high, and the man drank and firmly controlled the horse, and the black 'colored' cloak behind him flew up, making people feel an overwhelming momentum

The man looked at Jiang Ruonan, and saw that the troublemaker was a 'woman', and he was not afraid of anything at all, and his expression 'revealed' an unexpected 'color', and he couldn't help but look at her more, but seeing that there was nothing special about this 'woman' appearance, he looked away again.

When the soldiers saw him coming, they all stopped the arrows in their hands, and the troublesome people inside saw him, as if they had seen ghosts, and they retreated one after another, and their faces were even more frightened.

The scene fell silent all at once

Jiang Ruonan was guessing whether this person was the governor of everything, and Liu Zijin on the side had already stepped forward, saluted the person on the horse, and called out respectfully, "Governor Zuo"

Zuo Dudu sat on the horse, glanced at Liu Zijin, his eyes were 'gloomy' and cold, "Imperial Doctor Liu, you finally appeared" The tone was full of displeasure!

Imperial Physician Liu's face did not change his 'color', "The lower officials have something to delay, and after the incident, they will only ask the governor for their guilt, but in this matter, please also ask the governor to listen to the words ......of the lower official."

Governor Zuodu raised his hand and categorically interrupted him, "If you have anything to say, I'll talk about it later, now Governor Zuodu has more important things to do."

At this moment a gust of wind blew his mantle up.

"The timing is just right" He raised his head, and there was a murderous aura in his eyes, "All the soldiers obeyed the order, and immediately set fire to the town" The sound was like thunder, and it spread far away

"Wait a minute" shouted at the same time, although it was not as loud as his voice, but it caused a destructive force to his momentum

"Who is interfering with the Governor of Pontus" Although he asked, Governor Zuo's gaze was indeed like a sharp sword 'shooting' towards Jiang Ruonan

Jiang Ruonan had already been 'provoked' by the cold-blooded and cruel scene in front of her, and under the anger, she even dared to slap the emperor, how could she be intimidated by the governor in front of her who didn't know what it was

She bypassed the arrow in front of her, approached the brown 'colored' handsome horse, and raised her head to look at the Zuo Dudu, "Zuo Dudu, you can't burn the town, the matter is definitely not so bad that these people don't need to sacrifice."

Zuo Dudu looked down at her, and his eyes flashed, "Who are you, what are you doing here?" What qualifications do you have to speak to Ponturake" The voice grew colder and deeper.

Liu Zijin hurriedly said: "This is the doctor I invited, Mrs. Qiao, Mrs. Qiao has found a way to prevent the 'flower', Governor, please revoke the order to burn the town."

"It turned out to be just a doctor...... Zuo Dudu sneered, then ignored them anymore, and continued to raise his head and order, "Set fire to ......"

Jiang Ruonan suddenly took out something from his arms, held it high, raised his voice and said loudly: "The Queen Mother Feng Ling is here, Zuo Dudu, I order you to revoke the order to burn the town."

The scene suddenly became silent, and everyone watched with bated breath. The people all looked at Jiang Ruonan with hope, and some of them covered their mouths, for fear that they would cry.

Hearing this, Zuo Dudu glared at Jiang Ruonan fiercely, then dismounted and walked in front of Jiang Ruonan, his tall and burly figure, and his 'gloomy' and gloomy face all caused a strong oppressive force.

But Jiang Ruonan completely ignored these, held the token in front of him, raised his eyebrows, and said loudly: "See clearly, this is the Queen Mother's Feng Order"

Zuo Dudu glanced coldly at the token in Jiang Ruonan's hand, without any special expression on his face, and then he looked at Jiang Ruonan, there was an inch-long scar next to his narrow eyes, which looked hideous and terrifying under the light of the fire

"I don't know where you got the Feng Ling, but I want to tell you, I am the emperor's envoy, and I am fully responsible for this matter, not to mention that it is just the Queen Mother's Feng Ling, even if the Queen Mother is here in person, don't want me to revoke the order"

After speaking, he turned around resolutely and ignored Jiang Ruonan again, as if she was a vexatious child

Jiang Ruonan was angry, stretched out his hand and grabbed his wrist, and rushed out: "Why don't you even give us a chance to speak?" The emperor sent you down to save people, you are not here to kill people, you are simply cold-blooded"

Liu Zijin saw Jiang Ruonan talking to Zuo Dudu like this, and he was so anxious that cold sweat came out, and he secretly regretted that he hadn't told her about Zuo Dudu's personality before

Zuo Dudu was born as a civilian, he has today, all of them are earned back little by little by military merits, there is no shortcut, there is no luck, all is the accumulation of blood and human lives before he has been on the frontier, because he made great contributions to a big war with Qi three years ago, he was transferred back to the capital by the emperor, and he was promoted to the governor in front of the emperor in recent years

This person's 'sex' personality is tyrannical and cruel, last year's Gongzi of the Ministry of Shangshu didn't know what offended him, he broke a 'leg' of that person on the spot, and later he would rather be punished with a hundred lashes than apologize to that person for such a tough 'sex' personality, so that many people who looked at him unpleasantly did not dare to offend him again

With such a ruthless 'color', how can Jiang Ruonan be offended? He's about to deal with her, and who can save her?

Zuo Dudu stopped when he heard this, the lines of his back were stiff and cold, he slowly turned his head, looked at her, his hands clenched into fists, his face was extremely cold, he stared at her for a long time, perhaps thinking that her identity was not ordinary, and his expression gradually eased.

He looked at her, word by word, cold as ice, "Zuo Mou has never been a good person, if you kill these people, you can save more people, Zuo Mou will do this without hesitation, do you know, how many soldiers here are infected with smallpox every day, and how many of my own subordinates do I have to throw into it every day?" Do you know how many people die every day, how many people are infected every day, how many people try to run away every day, and you know how serious the consequences will be if one person escapes."

He stopped suddenly, his eyes were like tigers and wolves, like cheetahs, "The most direct way, and the only way, is to burn all the people here and everything in the town, and destroy all the heavenly 'flowers', only in this way can we save more people, sacrifice a few, in exchange for the majority, what is there to hesitate?"

"No, it's not the only way" Jiang Ruonan looked directly at him, "As long as Zuo Dudu gives me ten days, I can control everything"

There was a delay today, so the update was late, sorry. There will be a change later, it may be late, pro tomorrow to see ah~~
