Chapter 232: Darkness
The same incident happened in other places, and in just one day, Zhong Litian's thirteen families were picked. The strongest is Zhongli Village, which is divided into walls and the weakest, and no one is spared.
There are no less than 10,000 Zhongli people who have died!
Before the rain stopped, the people of Lianbi Castle discovered the tragic situation of the City Lord's Mansion. It's not because they're careful, it's because the miserable look is terrifying.
The city lord of Lianbi City was directly nailed to the gate of the glorious city lord's mansion, and a spear pierced his head, which was his own weapon! His eyes were still wide open, and the expression on his face was hideous, as if he was unwilling!
Next to him was his wife, whose limbs were pinned to her limbs by four throwing knives, as well as her own weapons. And her drooping hands were still clutching her child's swaddling clothes.
It's just that there is no baby inside, and the baby's white body is hung on the flag of "Zhongli Lianbi City Split", but her body is too small and fragile, so she can only barely hang on it, and it looks like it is about to fall.
And the bodies of the other Zhongli people were also hung on the wall, and none of them were spared. Even those grooms and maids who have no blood relationship with the Zhongli family are all in this way.
It's so bloody, it's too miserable! Any inhabitant of the walled city who saw this picture vomited uncontrollably. Even if he is accustomed to seeing life and death, he doesn't dare to look at it more.
This is what the Nanhua faction handed over to the killer to do, and it is obvious that it is a provocation to Zhong Li's family. Generally speaking, the South China faction would not do this, but there is one person who strongly advocates - Mo Yue!
The people of Lianbi City quickly reported this matter layer by layer, Zhongli Maorong was an official of the imperial court, no matter who did such a thing, he would not let it go so easily.
But a miraculous thing happened, only three days later, the new city lord took office, and the imperial court came to strictly order, even the matter of the wall city should not be spread outside!
Many smart people only then knew that it was an order from above, the death of a city lord could be suppressed, and those who had that power in the court could be counted on one hand!
And the deceased is Zhongli's family, which makes them have to suspect the general Chu of the imperial court!
However, after the order of the imperial court came down, no one dared to discuss this matter, it was too sensitive, and it would be a loss of head to talk nonsense.
As for the matter of Zhongli Village, Qianmengcheng only posted a few announcements, only mentioning that Zhongli Village colluded with the Black Rock Bandits and was then exterminated by Qianmengcheng, and he didn't even show his head to the public.
It seemed like a small thing, but according to those who hunted, the rebellious deaths in Zhongli Village were particularly striking, with mountains of heads and detours......
In short, it's a "horror"!
The situation is similar for other Zhongli families and strongholds. It was very sensational, but it was hidden by people again.
The only spread is the matter of Chihe's separation, the Chihe's division was broken in just one hour, the strong don't kill, and those who are left behind are all female cultivators, and the Chu family ...... They were all sent to a brothel.
And it is also a famous Baihua Pavilion in the capital, and this high-profile behavior is not even concealed - it conveys the meaning of provocation inside and out.
The methods of the Chu family and the Nanhua faction did things in a high-profile manner, which aroused the idea of Zhong Lijia. But keep a low profile to avoid these things of the two families from having a bad impact on the world!
They didn't plan to make peace with Zhong Lijia from the beginning, and Zhong Litian and Zhong Lihao's growth rate had already made them feel the pressure. The first strike is stronger, then just tear the skin!
At least they are ready for war, and the Zhongli family is still weak, taking advantage of your illness to kill you!
The breath of war is near, and the thousand-year disaster prophesied by the priests of the Zhongli family has come!
......
On the outskirts of the Imperial City!
The old man with white hair was leaning back on the chaise longue and squinting slightly, enjoying the rain outside the window. It's very beautiful and charming, just like the current Zhongli family, even if it is going through a storm, it is still tenacious.
And once the rainstorm passes, it is a new life.
The old prime minister was still immersed in Zhong Litian's extremely fast demon incident, and he couldn't extricate himself, and he was in a very good mood. Even watching the rain felt so beautiful! But somehow, he always felt a little worried.
Because...... The torrential rain that Zhongli has to endure has only just begun!
"Master, it's not good, something is wrong!" a rain-soaked guard rushed in.
The old prime minister was a little dissatisfied: "What are you panicking about? What makes you so anxious?"
When the guard said it, he didn't dare to say it, this matter is so miserable, and the old man's health is not good, if he said it himself, wouldn't it?
When the guards hesitated, the old prime minister quickly noticed that something was wrong, he had been a prime minister for many years, and he could already know people's hearts, the other party's appearance, could it be that Zhong Lijia had an accident?
"Say, what's going on?" the old prime minister jumped up and said sharply.
His momentum is naturally not comparable to ordinary people, the guard is clever, and hurriedly knelt down and bowed his head and said: "Master, you have to hold back! The thirteen branches of the Zhongli family were picked, and there were more than 10,000 Zhongli clansmen who died, among which the one from Lianbi City was the most ...... The enemy is ruthless, and there are almost no survivors! There is also the Chihe family, and the female cultivators in the family have all been banned from cultivation by the people of the Chu family and sold to the Hundred Flowers Pavilion......"
The guards went through the detailed data, but they didn't notice the old prime minister's pale face at all.
The old prime minister made countless calculations in an instant, thirteen families were destroyed, 10,000 people died, and the old and young were not left, no wonder he had a bad feeling.
This is definitely the battle letter of the Chu family and the Nanhua party against Zhong Li's family. He thought it would take some time, but the other side seemed desperate to go to war.
Zhong Li's family has been weakened to the extreme in recent years, and he is unprepared, so how can he resist it?
also blamed himself for being careless, and made such a big mistake, if he could see a little clue, he would not have caused the family to fall to such a point. Every time the guard thought of something, it was as if he had received a blow to his heart.
This is his own people, more than 10,000 people, more than 10,000 people, just gone, and Zhong Li's family will face follow-up attacks!
And the reason why the Chu family left the group of female cultivators in Chihe was to humiliate Zhong Li's family, the men were killed, and the women were official prostitutes...... The Chu family is so vicious!
"Poof!" The more the old prime minister thought about it, the more he felt stuffy in his heart, and in the end, he couldn't hold back any longer, his eyes were black, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, dyeing his plain clothes red. The guards were shocked and hurriedly got up to hold on!
"Master, don't have an accident, if you have an accident again, what should I do if I leave home?"
I don't know if my words are useful or if the means are useful, the old prime minister slowly opened his eyes, and he stopped the guard who wanted to call the doctor: "Quick, send these news back to my house quickly." Use the thunderlark, quick! Also, help me up, I will enter the palace to meet Your Majesty!"
The guard's last words reminded him that he was still useful, and that he must not have any more troubles, and now, he must immediately go and fight for some benefits that can be obtained for the family.
The dark rainstorm of Zhongli's house has come, but they can't back down!
