Chapter 142: Killing the Cat of Nine Lives
I stepped on the cat demon with one foot and held the mountain axe in the other. The axe fell, and blood splashed on my face in an instant, and at the same time, a voice sounded in my ears, come on, Zhang Shangxian took care of the heavens in vain, and killed the immortal without authorization, and his crime should be punished, take him down.
After the words were spoken, many heavenly soldiers rushed to me.
But I didn't pay attention to it, this is the Nine Lives Cat, I'm not sure if it's completely dead this time, I observed, and when I saw a wisp of soul flying out, I quickly took out my own underworld documents, and sealed the soul of the cat demon inside.
The heavenly soldiers surrounded me, but no one dared to step forward.
I dragged the corpse of the cat demon and said to Zhou Shangxian: "Your Tianguan Mansion does not dare to enforce the law, I will do it for you." ”
The old woman's body was trembling when she was angry with me, and said, "Zhang Shangxian, you privately beheaded the nine-life cat raised by the emperor, you just wait for death." ”
I said to the old woman, no matter who raised it, I will cut it down.
I turned my head to the old man and said, send me out of the Tianguan Mansion.
The old man was stunned for a moment, and then responded with a hello, he raised his hand and waved, and a door appeared in front of him, I dragged the corpse of the nine-life cat outside the door, no one stopped me, Zhou Shangxian said cruelly, Zhang Yan, the emperor will definitely send someone down to arrest you, you will not escape the death penalty.
As I walked out the door, the voices behind me drifted away until they disappeared completely.
I stepped on the sand outside again, the sky was gloomy and terrible, this cold day, there was a white mist coming out of my breath, if it weren't for the bright moon, the road would definitely not be easy tonight.
At night, the gates of Xianyang City were closed, and the soldiers guarding the city asked me, "Who is coming?" ”
I opened my mouth and said, "The cat demon has been killed by me, and now I want to go to General Meng to receive a reward." ”
After I finished speaking, the soldiers on the city wall stared at me in surprise and asked, "Is it really fake?" I told the soldiers to come down and take a look. The soldiers on the city wall ran down, and when they saw the corpse of the cat demon, they said to me, you are so powerful, I will go and report to General Meng now.
I said to the soldiers, "I'll go with you."
The soldier said yes, and we walked towards General Mengda's house.
When I arrived, the soldier shouted to me, "Good news, the cat demon has been captured, you go and report to the general." ”
The soldiers guarding the door did not dare to delay, rushed in to report, I waited outside the door with the soldiers, and the soldiers said to me, "Master, can you give my brother some hard-earned money after taking the bounty, and I said no problem."
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the soldiers guarding the door rushed out and said that the general would let us in.
In the hall of General Mengda, I saw General Mengda, he was wearing black civilian clothes, sitting on a chair, Li Zhong was also standing next to General Mengda, Li Zhong saw me, immediately called me Wangye. I waved my hand and didn't say anything.
General Meng looked at me in surprise, but he still didn't get up.
The soldier who brought me in reported the situation.
I said to General Mengda: "General, the cat demon has been captured and killed by me, and the corpse is here, please verify it with the general." ”
Seeing that I was covered in blood, General Meng frowned, got up and walked forward, looked at him anxiously and said, "This cat demon was really captured and killed by you?" ”
I said of course, Li Zhong also spoke for me, saying that the prince's ability will be seen in the end, and it should not be a problem to kill this cat demon.
General Meng said coldly to Li Zhong: "If you want to speak, won't General Ben see it for himself?" ”
One sentence choked Li Zhong to death.
General Meng said: "I don't care what kind of Zhengyuan King you are, General Ben has never heard of it, since you killed the cat demon, General Ben will not break his word, Li Zhong took him to receive a reward and let him go." ”
Li Zhong fulfilled his promise.
I said to General Meng, "It doesn't matter if you recognize me as the king of Zhengyuan now, but General Mengda, what I want to tell you is that sooner or later, you will recognize me." ”
General Meng snorted and said a send-off.
Li Zhong led me forward, out of the living room, Li Zhong laughed and said, Lord Wang, I hope you don't get angry with General Meng, he has this temper.
I hummed.
Li Zhong suddenly sighed and said, "Actually, General Meng has also had troubles recently. ”
What bother, I ask?
Li Zhong said that there is a group of bandits outside Xianyang City, with thousands of people and well-equipped, which is not enough, but what is even more annoying is that among the bandits, there is a demon master who can control the beasts in the mountains, and I heard that the mount of this demon master is a dragon. General Meng led the soldiers to attack several times, but they missed, and when the soldiers saw the fierce beast and dragon, they softened their minds and did not dare to attack.
Li Zhong sighed as he spoke, the general had been worried about this recently.
Li Zhong gave me the bounty, and I didn't refuse, and I don't have much money when I come to this place now.
When I left, I also asked Li Zhong, where is the hiding place of the bone bandits?
Li Zhong told me that the hiding place was in a mountain in the north of Xianyang City, the terrain in the mountain was complicated, and it was a deep mountain and old forest, and wild beasts were infested all year round. Li Zhong also said to me, Lord Wang, you must not put yourself in danger.
I hummed and said I knew.
After separating from Li Zhong, I went out of General Mengda's house, and the soldiers guarding the city outside the gate were still waiting for me, and when he saw me, he smiled and gave her fifty gold coins. He bowed down to me and quickly thanked me.
I took the money and went to find Ah Jin. Jin lives in a modest hotel in the city.
I knocked on Ah Jin's door, and Ah Jin asked who it was?
After I said it was me, Ah Jin turned it on, there was a charcoal fire in the house for heating, and Ah Jin was wearing a single dress, as if she had just come out of bed, and her face was still flushed.
I asked Ah Jin, "Did I wake you up?" ”
Ah Jin hurriedly said no. I said to Ah Jin, "This money is for you." Take this money and buy a house in Xianyang City. "Everyone in Ah Jin's village is dead, and now Ah Jin can't go back.
Ah Jin said to me, this is your money, I can't ask for it?
I said, Ah Jin, you have bought a house, and I can live in it in the future. Otherwise, we can't stay in a hotel all the time in Xianyang City.
As I spoke, I noticed that the flush on Ah Jin's face was even more obvious, and Ah Jin asked me, how long will you stay?
I said I don't know. Let's stay for now. Ah Jin, the cat demon has been killed by me, and I have avenged your grandfather.
Ah Jin hummed, her words themselves were not much. When it came to Ah Jin's sadness, her mood became a little low, and I said to Ah Jin, these things are over, and she will live a good life in the future.
Ah Jin said lightly, and then maybe he caught a glimpse of the blood on my body, so he asked me, "Zhang Yan, are you okay?" ”
I said it was okay, a little hurt.
Ah Jin got up and said, where will it be fine, you take off your clothes, and I will help you wash your wounds. In the end, I didn't insist on Ah Jin, she went to get hot water to help me wipe my body, and then helped me bandage it, and I asked Ah Jin to go to sleep quickly.
I slept on the bunk.
The next day, Xianyang City became lively, and the body of the cat demon was hung on the city wall.
And my name was spread all over Xianyang City, and everyone thought I was a master.
But I didn't have time to pay attention to these, so I took Ah Jin to Xianyang City to buy a house, the house is not big, but it is still secluded, Ah Jin has a soft smile on her face, and said, Xiaoyan, this will be our home in the future. Ah Jin walked in the yard.
I looked at her and felt a little dazed, always feeling like I was standing in front of me.
Seeing that I was stunned, Ah Jin shook his hand in front of me, and I came back to my senses. Ah Jin asked me what I was thinking.
I said I didn't think about anything.
At this moment, there was a noisy sound outside, and I said to Ah Jin, you are waiting for me here, and I will go out and have a look.
Ah Jin said okay, let me be careful.
When I got outside, I followed the sound and walked, and I saw the main street of Xianyang City, a group of soldiers walked out, and at least there were thousands of people, and they walked out in a mighty way, and there were many onlookers, and they were all talking nonsense, and I heard the fragments, and they said that General Meng Da was going to exterminate the bandits this time.
Another person answered, I estimate that the previous times General Meng Da ended in failure, and this time it is estimated that it will not be much better.
Some people sighed and said, I hope General Meng will succeed. Otherwise, the existence of this gang of bandits will make people panic.
I turned around and said to Ah Jin, "Ah Jin, you wait for me at home, don't run around." ”
Ah Jin said okay, I will soon follow General Meng out of the city.
