Chapter 125: What's the matter of defending the empty city?

The emperor frowned, looked up at the inner room of the main hall, but saw a mess, there was no human figure, but there was a wine jar in one place. Feng Xun and Liang Yue then walked in, and they both frowned and said, "What a big smell of wine." ”

Xuanyuanzi's face was slightly gloomy, and he walked towards the bed in the inner room, opened the curtain, but saw a person lying horizontally on the bed, his face could not be seen clearly, his clothes were not neat, and he was sleeping soundly.

"It's... Could it be that he is the lord of the city? Liang Yue's eyes widened, looking at the pile of cloth on the bed, and said in surprise: "Horse thieves are rampant, this guy is actually sleeping?" ”

Feng Xun looked at it, shook his head and said: "You should admire him, he actually fell asleep like this without closing the door, he was simply not afraid of death." And looking at it like this, I'm still drunk. “

The emperor walked to the side of the bed and kicked the man on the bed over without mercy. The unshaven face was revealed, and the mouth moved, still asleep. The emperor looked amused and said, "Now that you kill him, don't you feel that you are still doing anything good in your dreams?" ”

Liang Yue nodded expressionlessly and said, "You can try it." ”

Feng Xun quietly took out a short sword and handed it to Xuanyuan Zili.

The man on the bed muttered twice, rolled twice into the bed as if he felt murderous, and wrapped himself in the quilt. It's funny and funny to see these three people outside. Liang Yue stepped forward and stepped directly on the bulging quilt, and her strength did not save at all.

"Hmm." There was a muffled snort from the quilt, Liang Yue stepped back, and Xuanyuan Zili took a short sword to pull the quilt apart, revealing a painful face.

"It hurts to death, did the beams fall down?" The man sat up in a daze, looked at the situation in front of him, and couldn't help but be stunned, and said, "Horse thief?" ”

Feng Xun laughed, and said with a faint murderous aura: "Is it the horse thief who came to take your life?" Do you run away or not? ”

Rubbing his sleepy eyes, Nan Bugui muttered: "Why did the horse thief come here, why don't you go to rob the house and kill anyone?" ”

Xuanyuan Zili looked at him in astonishment, not knowing what to say. Liang Yue thought this person was very interesting, so she said: "It is common for horse thieves to kill people and seize wealth, do you think that killing the people will not kill you?" Now, get up and hand over what is valuable, and then leave your life behind. ”

Nan Bugui shook his head, finally sobered up a little, looked at the woman in purple in front of him and said, "Such a beautiful person, is he also a horse thief?" It's better to find a good family to marry and live a stable life. ”

Liang Yue was choked by him, and then burst out laughing, "Are you trying to influence the horse thief?" ”

Nan Bugui shook his head very seriously and said: "If the horse thief is reformed like this, then I don't have to spend so much effort." The three of them came from afar, not just to play with the horse thieves in the bottom, right? ”

The three of them were stunned, but they didn't want this person who looked like he knew everything. The emperor couldn't help but ask curiously, "How do you know that we are not horse thieves?" And how do we know that we have come from afar? ”

Nan Bugui glanced at Emperor Ming Xuan, shook his head and said: "Where do horse thieves have such momentum as you, besides, every time a horse thief comes, he grabs something and leaves, where will he wake me up." I've never seen a few of them, so they've only come from afar. ”

The mind is clear, and it doesn't look like a mediocre look. This Spirit Leaf City looks strange, and the city lord is even more confusing. If you are a wise person, why should you let the horse thief go alone and get drunk alone?

"I'm so sleepy, if the three of you are fine, just wait until I wake up." Nan Bugui saw that they were all in a daze, so he rolled back to the bed, waved his hand at them, and said: "The horse thief can't be solved for a while, if a few people come to me for help, it's okay, it's better in a dream, um." ”

Liang Yue was speechless, looked at Xuanyuan Zili's expression, and said with a low smile: "There are still such interesting people in the world, what do you think, master?" ”

Xuanyuanzi looked at Nan Bugui for a while, and said, "The inn is closed, so let Qing Jue bring them all to this city lord's mansion to live." After all, this city lord also doesn't care about things, and it also saves us money from the guest house. ”

Do you live here? Liang Yue looked out, and there was still a row of rooms on the other side. Just looking at the appearance of the main hall, the wing room is estimated to be no better, so they have to let the peony and them clean up first.

The emperor stood in the main hall and had no intention of leaving, it seemed that he still wanted to say something to the city lord. Liang Yue and Feng Xun went out to find Qing Jue and them first.

Walking to the street, there was still no one, and the wind was blowing dust. The two walked slowly, and Liang Yue suddenly remembered, so she asked Feng Xun, "There is no stronghold you want here?" ”

Feng Xun shook his head and said: "It's too chaotic here, there are not a few shops, how can there be a stronghold." But since you're here, you'd better settle the matter of the horse thief. ”

There are many prosperous cities in the Apocalypse, and such a desolate place is really uncommon, and the emperor must be governed well before he is willing to leave.

Liang Yue nodded, and when she raised her eyes, she saw the place where they had fought just now. The body remained on the ground, and no one cleaned it up. If the people come out later, they will be frightened.

"Did you bring corpse water?" Liang Yue asked with a frown.

Feng Xun pursed his lips and said disgustedly: "What am I doing with such troublesome things." It was never us who destroyed the corpses. ”

Liang Yue glanced at him and said, "Put it here, do you want the people to clean it up?" ”

"Why not." Feng Xun shrugged: "I have been oppressed by horse thieves for a long time, and now I accept their corpses, and the people should be happy." But a dozen corpses, what's terrible? ”

After saying that, Feng Xun looked left and right, walked towards a house with a closed door, knocked on the door and said, "The horse thief is dead, everyone come out quickly." ”

Liang Yue looked at Feng Xun's behavior in a daze, and just wanted to stop him, but saw the door open, and a man with a wooden stick looked at Feng Xun and said, "How could the horse thief die?" ”

Feng Xun didn't speak, only pointed to the pile of corpses outside.

The man's eyes widened suddenly, and he was stunned for a long time before he shouted: "Come out, everyone, the horse thief is dead!" ”

This voice roared, and the people who had just closed the doors and windows opened their doors one after another, and all the old and young went out, and some people were a little scared when they saw the scene on the ground, but most of them applauded.

"Thank you, hero!" The man bowed to Feng Xun, and then everyone went to the pile of corpses, and after confirming that they were all dead, the man picked up the wooden stick and beat it. After all these days of fear and robbery, I finally saw the retribution of the horse thief today! Deserve!

The people picked up the guys one after another, and released all the suppressed ones for so long. The old man who lost his daughter also held a wooden stick, crying and smashing hard, making Liangyue surprised and sighed.

"Alright, let's throw their carcasses out of the city and feed them to the wolves!" Someone shouted, the old man and the child withdrew, and the men pushed the cart and carried the bodies out of the city one by one. Seeing that today's disaster had passed, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the number of people on the street slowly increased again.

"Dare to ask the hero's name?" Just now, the man walked back to Feng Xun, bowed to him excitedly, and said, "The hero is the great benefactor of my Lingye City to eliminate harm for the people!" ”

"Yes, something that the government has never done, this son is really amazing!"

"That's right, the city lord is probably drunk in the mansion again, it's better to change it."

Everyone said one after another, and the anger on everyone's faces was not much better than mentioning the bandits.

Feng Xun raised his eyebrows, and asked what to do with Liangyue. Liang Yue thought for a moment and asked a person next to her, "Why did Lingye City come to this point today?" Have none of you written to the capital? ”

There was a scholar-like person next to him, who was stunned when he heard this, shook his head and said, "If your life is not guaranteed, who would have thought of going to school." The people here have either fled, or there are some people left who can't leave with their families. A year ago, the first batch of horse thieves arrived in Lingye City, the city lord took the city protector to chase and kill, but I don't know what happened, when he came back, the city lord dismissed the city guard, and the horse thief did not kill, so he locked himself in the city lord's mansion, and after a while, the horse thief entered Lingye City again, robbed the money, and robbed the people's daughters. No one came out to do the right thing for heaven, and the horse thieves became even more rampant. ”

"Later, more than one group, the horse thieves in the nearby area knew that Lingye City was easy to bully, so they all rushed over. The horse thief is also smart, he didn't kill too many people, and he came every once in a while, so that there would be something that could not be robbed. The people are miserable, but there is nowhere to say. ”

After the scholar finished speaking, he sighed and said, "If I can go to Beijing to catch the exam, I must find an opportunity to sue the emperor." The city lord puts the people in fire and water, regardless of it, he is not worthy of being the city lord at all! ”

Liang Yue nodded, and roughly understood what was going on, so she walked to Feng Xun's side and said, "I'll go and put a signal smoke to inform Qing Jue." ”

Feng Xun said: "I'm with you." ”

"Hero!" The man still looked at him and said, "We haven't known the name of the hero yet." ”

Feng Xun paused, glanced back at the man, and said, "There is nothing worth remembering from you, I kill people often, but this time I just happened to kill a horse thief." If it's good or bad, maybe I'm much worse than them. Go back and pack your things and prepare to flee, what are you doing in this place? ”

The man was stunned, as if he didn't understand Feng Xun's words, but the man in white had already pulled the purple-clothed girl away.

How could he be a bad person, the man shook his head, he felt that this son was a person with an excellent heart, this was his intuition, and he should not be wrong.

After putting off the signal smoke, after a while, I saw Qing Jue driving a carriage to the city gate from a distance. Several people went back to the City Lord's Mansion together, cleaned up a few rooms and came out to stay. In the evening, Peony brought the meal to the table, and everyone sat in the courtyard to prepare for the meal.

The city lord, who had not moved, smelled the aroma of the food, and actually took the initiative to come out of the room and sat down at the table very consciously.
