Chapter 22: Rebellion

The sky was bright, Shen Chengping opened his eyes, and saw the beautiful woman in his arms snuggled in his arms, sleeping fragrantly. Thinking of the wanton welcome of the person in his arms yesterday, Shen Chengping couldn't help but feel a burst of anger, even if it was a woman like Lu Xueqi, who was as cold and elegant as a fairy, once she let go, that kind of style made Shen Chengping intoxicated.

Woke up quietly, Lu Xueqi's face was full of shyness, but fortunately, Shen Chengping was considerate, but he didn't bully Lu Xueqi anymore. The two freshened up and walked out of the small courtyard together, Shen Chengping had been in retreat during this time, and when he was successful, he wanted to take a tour of the city, but found that a notice was pasted on the notice board of the official mansion on the street.

In several nearby states and counties, children have been missing repeatedly, and the total number of missing children has exceeded 100, and all the surrounding counties and counties have notices to the Quartet, indicating that the counties and counties are on guard, and the imperial court sent Yan Chixia, the chief catcher of 26 provinces, to personally investigate the case.

Shen Chengping didn't expect to see the news of Yan Chixia at this time, and he didn't expect that Yan Chixia had not resigned and returned to seclusion now, thinking that he had not yet arrived at Lanruo Temple, in the world of Chinese women, Yan Chixia looked extremely depressed when she appeared, but she was a chivalrous warrior who walked the world and subdued demons and eliminated demons, but he also once confessed that he was a general catcher in the past, just because he was not used to seeing traitors in the court, he hung up the seal and left, and since then he has been free in the world and swept away all demons. Thinking of this, Shen Chengping thought about whether to go to Lanruo Temple to see if the tree demon had appeared, and maybe he could get rid of the tree demon by the way.

However, after Lu Xueqi saw Yan Chixia's name, she said: "I didn't expect Senior Brother Yan to be the chief catcher in the imperial court!" ”

"Senior Brother Yan? Xueqi, do you recognize him? Shen Chengping asked.

"Well, I met Senior Brother Yan in the first two years, and he is a registered disciple of my Shushan faction." Lu Xueqi said directly.

The so-called registered disciples may not be as good as Shen Chengping and Lu Xueqi and other personal disciples, but they can also get part of the inheritance of the sect, and if they are lucky, they can further become personal disciples, but I didn't expect to get the news of Yan Chixia in this situation.

"Yan Chixia, I didn't expect him to be a disciple of Shushan, it's really interesting!" Shen Chengping said with a smile.

Thinking of the tree demon grandma, Shen Chengping thought of the old demon of Montenegro again, when he was in the Laoshan faction, Shen Chengping also asked the master about the old demon of Montenegro, and knew that this old demon of Montenegro was a big demon in the underworld, and established a city of vain death in the underworld, specializing in taking in unjust ghosts.

The old demon of Montenegro rarely leaves the underworld, and most of them are clones every time they appear, and even decades ago, the master once destroyed the clone of the old demon of Montenegro with Daochang Zhou, and since then it has rarely heard of the blatant actions of the old demon of Montenegro in the world, but looking at the plot of the Chinese ghost story, this tree demon grandma should have something to do with the old demon of Montenegro, and may even be a subordinate of the old demon of Montenegro.

After another three days, there was a sudden news that thirteen children had disappeared directly in the city overnight, and Yan Chixia, who was the chief catcher, rushed here as soon as she got the news, and even followed by a full two thousand military horses, which directly blocked the city.

Shen Chengping didn't care about the army locking down the city, he was thinking about children's cases, generally speaking, abducting children is not uncommon, especially now that the dynasty is in turmoil, ghosts are rampant, and the number of chickens and dogs is gradually increasing, it is nothing that children are missing, but such a concentrated voice case is indeed strange, Shen Chengping now suspects that it is very likely that some demons are doing such a case, after all, thirteen children disappeared in the city overnight, or disappeared directly at home in the middle of the night, This is not something that ordinary people can do, and daring to do it so blatantly is by no means an ordinary evil cultivator or monster.

Just when Shen Chengping was thinking about it, there was a commotion outside, and there was a noise everywhere, Shen Chengping and Lu Xueqi, who heard the sound, walked to the gate, looked out, and saw a team of soldiers rushing into various homes to rummage around, any dynasty in the last days, the military discipline of the army is not much better, although it is said to be looking for missing children, but these soldiers themselves have no discipline at all, and they are completely like bandits when searching.

Not far away, a cry came from a farmer's house: "Master Jun, okay, this is the last bit of life-saving money in our family, if you take it, ......"

"Get out of the way of Lao Tzu, if you are blocking me from running an errand, beware that I will arrest you directly to the prison......" As he spoke, he saw a soldier stuff a small money bag wrapped in copper coins into his arms, and at the same time kicked a dark-skinned man to the ground, ignoring the pleading behind him, and swaggered out of the man's house.

These soldiers also have some eyesight, and they don't dare to offend those high-ranking families, after all, these big families also have a family guard, and they also have a lot of power in the local area, so they will kill them directly when they are in a hurry, and it is impossible for anyone to avenge him, the house that Shen Chengping bought is not small, and the door is tall, so these soldiers dare not make a mistake, but these people suffered.

Shen Chengping frowned a little when he saw this, but Lu Xueqi was already angry, and with a wave of his hand, he swept all the small group of soldiers to the ground, and even because she shot out angrily, all the dozen or so people were broken and fell to the ground.

"Let your commanders and chief catchers come, and I'll let them see what to do with you guys!" Lu Xueqi stood directly in front of these people and said.

The little boss broke two ribs, screaming in pain, and when he saw Lu Xueqi making a sound, he knew that it was her who made a move, and immediately stared at Lu Xueqi and Shen Chengping with resentment, and roared loudly: "You...... You are going to rebel, come on, come on, come on, someone is attacking officers and soldiers, and you are going to rebel! ”

Shen Chengping frowned slightly, but he didn't stop the other party from yelling, and in the blink of an eye, dozens of soldiers ran over from the surrounding houses and the street next to them, and these dozens of soldiers more or less robbed a lot of things, and all they were holding in their hands were the money they had robbed. Seeing the scene in front of them at this time, their expressions changed, and they stared at Shen Chengping and Lu Xueqi with bad intentions.

Among these soldiers, there were squad leaders and other characters who immediately shouted, gathered dozens of soldiers together, and shouted at Shen Chengping and Lu Xueqi: "Bold rebels, actually attacking the officers and soldiers, this is a heinous crime, and it will be captured before ...... hands are restrained."

"Get out of here, let someone who can call the shots come and see me." Since he had already made a move, Shen Chengping had no mercy, and in just one sentence, this group of dozens of soldiers suddenly fell to the ground as if they had encountered thunder in the sky, their ears buzzed.

"You, you are attacking the officers and soldiers to rebel, and the chief soldier will not let you go." Shen Chengping looked at the soldier who was holding back his headache and shouting to put himself in the hat of rebellion, and suddenly snorted coldly, and immediately the person's head exploded with a 'bang', and he died directly on the spot.
