Chapter 111: Law Field
Zhuo Qing's rapidly rising aura behind him made Shen Huan's heart feel a strong uneasiness. The blazing flame energy that followed could still be felt clearly even by Shen Huan, who was far away, which made the uneasiness in Shen Huan's heart even stronger.
"With such a powerful Qi and such terrifying heat, what did Zhuo Qing do?" asked himself, but he couldn't give himself an answer.
And on the law field in Shuozhou, Xue Zhao, the city lord of Shuozhou City, sat on the main seat of the law field under the escort of four mid-level masters. The leader of the "Desolate Shadow", Asobe, hid in the shadows, and never took his eyes off Xue Zhao.
In order to ensure that Xue Zhao's arrangement achieved the best effect, the six people of "Desolate Shadow" deduced the direction in which Shenhuan might come to rob the law field, and in order to ensure that Xue Zhao's arrangement achieved the best effect, the desolate head sent five of his subordinates out one after another to intercept Shenhuan halfway. Although reason and experience told him that no matter how good Shen Huan was in the late stage of the first rank, no matter how good he was, it would be impossible to break through the interception of the middle stage of the five heavenly ranks, there was always a vague uneasiness in the heart of the desolate head.
The drum beaten, and the drumsticks struck lightly on the drum surface, then heavier and heavier, more and more urgent. Everyone held their breath in unison.
Tu Lie, who was covered in bruises and covered in blood, was also brought up by two late-stage town guards from the Shuozhou Prison.
The executioner, who was full of flesh and fierce face, pressed Tu Lie, who was taller than himself, to his knees, stepped on Tu Lie's neck, and stepped Tu Lie's neck into the depression on the wooden pillow.
The executioner washed the blade of his beheading broadsword, which had cut off an unknown number of heads, with water from a nearby copper basin. When the hour comes, he will fill his sword with another ghost!
Tu Lie struggled to raise his head and looked at the crowd on the outskirts of the court. They were looking at Tu Lie with innocent and curious eyes, as if they were watching a big show.
Since the construction of this Dharma Field, I don't know how many people have been beheaded here, some of them may have committed great crimes, some of them may have died unjustly, and some of them may not understand why they suddenly lay here, such as Tu Lie at this time.
It was obviously a bright sun, but Tu Lie's heart was a little chilly. Tu Lie suddenly felt that the sun was shining so brightly that he couldn't open his eyes, so he simply closed his eyes.
"Don't come...... Shen Huan ...... Zhuo Qing ......" Tu Lie sighed in his heart.
Although when he asked Shenhuan to leave that day, he told Shenhuan that the Dharma Field was the last chance, Tu Lie didn't want Shenhuan and Zhuo Qing to come to save him, and the reason why he said that was just to make Shenhuan willing to leave at that time. Tu Lie actually knew very well that Xue Zhao had already made all the preparations, if Shenhuan and the two came to save him, there would be only one way to die.
Executing Tu Lie as soon as possible was not in line with Xue Zhao's intentions, he wanted to maximize Tu Lie's value.
Xue Zhao slowly walked to the center of the court, and the crowd of onlookers erupted in warm applause, as if they were grateful that Xue Zhao would avenge them and uphold justice, although Tu Lie had nothing to do with them.
With a warm but majestic smile on his face, Xue Zhao raised his hand and motioned for the people to be quiet. The applause gradually subsided, Xue Zhao cleared his throat and said loudly: "Fellow fathers and fellow villagers in Shuozhou, today, we will accomplish a great thing in Shuozhou!"
The people below looked up to their lord and listened attentively to what his lord had to say.
Xue Zhao said with a sad and righteous indignation: "As we all know, it is not a moment for the Ghost Bandit Group to harm the Twenty-Four Prefectures of Shenqi. Relying on the fact that they still have a few pounds and two, those bandits ran rampant in the 24 prefectures and plundered the property of countless ordinary people!
"Yes! The ghost raised by the son of a bitch is extremely evil! Stealing people's money and promiscuating people's wives and daughters! Evil is full of evil! The crime is unforgivable!" An angry voice in the crowd interrupted Xue Zhao.
Infected by this voice, more and more people have joined the ranks of denouncing ghosts!
"Evil is full of unforgivable! Evil is full of sin! Sin is unforgivable!"
Xue Zhao was very satisfied with this effect, and secretly praised his subordinates' ability to do things this time, this person who hid in the crowd and took the lead was quite good.
Xue Zhao once again signaled the people to be quiet, and continued: "Seeing that my people are living under such a threat all day long, as the lord of a city and a state, I can't think about tea and dinner, and I can't sleep at night. Finally, I couldn't bear it anymore and organized a coalition to wipe out the evil Ghost Bandit in one fell swoop!"
Xue Zhao's voice became excited! A voice from the crowd also appeared again: "The city lord is eloquent and strategic, wise and powerful, and no one can match it!"
"Wise and powerful, no one can match! Wise and powerful, no one can match!" The crowd shouted like a tidal wave.
Xue Zhao was already excited, but on the surface, he pretended to be indifferent. This time, Xue Zhao did not take the initiative to signal the people to be quiet, but waited for the people to slowly stop before starting to make a final speech.
"However, there is a remnant of evil who escaped from the Ghost Valley! This is the person! He is hiding in the Yellow Sand Corridor outside the Twenty-Four Prefectures of the Divine Apocalypse, intending to re-establish a new Ghost Tao and bring the nightmare to the innocent people again! I! Xue Zhao, the city lord of Shuozhou City! I will never allow such a thing to happen! Therefore, I took out the wealth accumulated in Shuozhou for many years and offered him a reward for his head, just to give everyone an eternal peaceful life!"
"The city lord loves the people like a son, and the world is the co-master!" the voice finally threw out the most important sentence.
"Love the people like a son, the co-lord of the world! Love the people like a son, the co-lord of the world!" The people who made the co-ordination did not think about what these two sentences meant, or they did not know what they meant.
Xue Zhao sat back on the big chair that suddenly became soft and comfortable in the center of the tsunami-like sound of the people, and moved his muscles and bones happily.
A pawn waved the blood-red flag in his hand at the drum, signaling that the time for execution had come.
Xue Zhao's face was pale, he picked up the token on the case, threw it to the ground, and said loudly: "The hour has come, kill it!"
The executioner, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, carried his big knife and walked next to Tu Lie, his face was fierce, and the big knife was held high!
As his decapitation knife was about to fall, a cold voice froze him in place.
"Today, no one wants to touch a single cold hair of him! Otherwise, the sword will be ruthless, and there will be no forgiveness for killing!"
In the shocked eyes of the crowd, Shen Huan came slowly with the Sword of Questioning! Shen Huan's steps were not fast, and his steps were very light. But every time Shenhuan took a step, everyone's hearts seemed to be beaten with a slam drum, which shook their hearts!
Tu Lie on the guillotine naturally heard Shenhuan's voice, Tu Lie's body couldn't help trembling, and there was a faint inaudible cry: "Shenhuan, you idiot...... Zhuo Qing is also an idiot...... Why are you here...... Going to die...... will kill you...... Idiot......"
On the wooden altar in front of the iron-like man, I don't know when, there were a few more dark wet marks......
The law enforcement team of the law enforcement field was the first to react and shouted: "Bold thief, dare to trespass on the law field!
Twenty soldiers of the law enforcement team, holding up their spears in their hands, rushed towards Shenhuan. I didn't see any movement from Shenhuan, everyone present only felt a breeze blowing, and the twenty soldiers were still rushing forward, but their heads had already slipped down......
This strange and terrifying scene made ordinary people cover their mouths. Only the very few masters above the ground level present could clearly see that when the law enforcement team rushed towards Shenhuan, an almost transparent sword qi came out at will and at will, silently cutting off the heads of the twenty soldiers.
The atmosphere in the Dharma field froze for a while.
"Someone!" Shuozhou City Lord Xue Zhao broke the short silence with a loud shout, "Take down this thief who dares to rob the law field for me!" Sure enough, it is the ghost who is trying to harm you again, and I, Xue Zhao, will definitely wipe you all out today!"
Xue Zhao didn't forget to continue to pour dirty water on Tu Lie and Shenhuan at this time.
A group of elite soldiers of Shuozhou City, who had been hiding in the crowd, drew their hidden blades one after another and surrounded Shenhuan from all directions.
Shen Huan's eyes were sharp, his feet moved, the sword intent was surging, the wind was withering, and the ground was frosty!
For a time, within a radius of ten zhang centered on Shenhuan, the sword qi was vertical and horizontal! Each sword harvested the life of a Shuozhou soldier, and there was no accidental injury!
From beginning to end, Shen Huan never moved.
The ordinary people within ten zhang watched the soldiers around them being disintegrated by the sword qi, and they were so frightened that they fled into the distance crying for their fathers and mothers. And the soldiers who were left alive ten feet away were also so frightened that they moved back little by little, and their trembling hands were almost unable to hold their weapons.
"Do you want to continue to let these miscellaneous fish come to death?" Shen Huan's voice was extremely arrogant, but no one refuted it, because these ordinary soldiers could indeed only be called non-threatening miscellaneous fish in front of Shen Huan!
Generally speaking, it is the most correct tactic to use ordinary soldiers to consume Shenhuan's qi and physical strength. In the eyes of Xue Zhao, the city lord of Shuozhou City, ordinary soldiers are just a number, but the casualties of masters should be avoided as much as possible.
But at this time, Xue Zhao couldn't use the "most correct tactic", because there were still hundreds of pairs of eyes staring at him around the law field. If he does this, the image of "being wise and martial and loving the people like a son" that he has managed to establish will completely collapse.
"Hmph! It's not a small tone!" Xue Zhao was really a little angry at this time, "Let you see the strength of our Shuozhou City masters!"
The masters that Xue Zhao brought to the Dharma Field included four mid-stage guards, two late-stage prison guards, two half-step heaven-level generals, and a desolate head hiding in the shadows! With such a powerful lineup, Xue Zhao believed that a young man in the late stage of the ground level could simply be captured.
In order to further establish his image, Xue Zhao pretended to be a king, and said: "In order to avoid being said that we in Shuozhou are bullying more and less, we will be truthful. I've decided that as long as you can defeat the three strong men I have chosen, I'll let you go!"
"City Lord think twice!" Several of Xue Zhao's subordinates around him had followed Xue Zhao for many years, so they naturally knew the thoughts of this city lord, and they cooperated to make a scene, pretending to be strongly opposed, "They are the remnants of ghosts...... Don't let the tiger return to the mountains and let the people suffer again......"
"As the lord of a city, I promise a thousand gold! I will never change it! Moreover, I believe in the masters under my command, and I believe that evil cannot defeat good!" Xue Zhao stopped his subordinates from continuing with an awe-inspiring manner.
Shen Huan raised his hand, and the Conscience Sword stabbed into the ground on its own, and on the dull blade of the sword, the chill penetrated to the bone!
"Why bother, I promised!
No one dared to respond!
