Chapter 43: Killing the Mastiff (II)
Chapter 43: Killing the Mastiff (II)
"Gongzi Liu?" Jiang Chen's heart moved when he heard this, and he saw that Liu Gongzi was followed by a big black dog with a body like a cow. The black dog's fur is black and shiny, his eyes are like torches, and his face is fierce. Ordinary domestic dogs are not so big and not so vicious.
"Liu Gongzi, this is a black mastiff, right?" Jiang Chen said: "It is said that the black mastiff is a fierce dog with demon blood, which is aggressive and difficult to tame. ”
Liu Gongzi smiled slightly when he heard this, and was quite proud: "You still have some vision, yes, this black mastiff demon has to be fed with live animals every day, and every year just feeding it live sheep and chickens is enough to buy seven or eight small halls!"
Jiang Chen nodded, and asked again: "Liu Gongzi is the eldest son of Lord Liu Yuanwai in the northern suburbs of Yunlan Town." I only knew that the adults outside the staff had a lot of money, but I didn't expect that Liu Gongzi was also a cultivator on the rivers and lakes. ”
"Liu Gongzi is not like me waiting for the rivers and lakes to cultivate!" The yin and yang strange young man said: "Liu Gongzi's master, but he is a famous person in the Taoist court......
Liu Gongzi waved his hand and motioned to the young man not to say more, but the young man did not dare to say more.
Jiang Chen already knew it in his heart, and he said with a smile: "I heard that Liu Gongzi's spirit beast injured the villagers a few days ago, and I thought that this black mastiff had been executed, but I didn't expect Liu Gongzi to have great powers and rescued it." ”
"Ordinary trivial matters, why worry about it!" The young man said: "The Taoist court is above the ordinary court, and the ordinary yamen can control the cultivators like us! What kind of identity is Liu Gongzi, let alone a small county official, even if he sues the state capital, he will not dare to impose criminal responsibility on Liu Gongzi's body......
Liu Gongzi waved his hand again, interrupting the young man's boasting and flattery. He frowned slightly, and looked at Jiang Chen and the others: "Your news is well-informed, this son thought that this matter had already been settled, how did you two know about it?"
Jiang Wu snorted coldly, and was about to draw his sword, but was stopped by Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen said: "The two of us are also hearsay. Don't bother Liu Gongzi to visit the market. ”
"Wait!" Liu Gongzi said: "What happened in Pingyang Valley, is it true or false?"
Jiang Chen said with a smile: "It is true that I encountered a demon beast, but it is not powerful, my two human methods are shallow, so I was injured." What kind of rumors like the Black Tiger Demon are somewhat exaggerated. ”
"I see!" Liu Gongzi snorted coldly: "This Gongzi has already guessed it, but I still went to take a look, and sure enough, it was a trip for nothing!
Jiang Chen laughed a few times and pulled Jiang Wu away.
"Brother, it turns out that it was the black mastiff demon beast that hurt Aunt Wang's son's life, as Dao heroes, we can't ignore it!" Jiang Wu said, "Why did you stop me just now?"
Jiang Chen said: "This is the Fang City set up by the Taoist Court, you forgot what the Taoist Taoist Temple said, private fights are strictly prohibited here." ”
"Then what should I do?" Jiang Wu was jealous and hateful: "Then Liu Gongzi clearly didn't take this life seriously, and he still didn't put chains on the black mastiff after the accident! If the black mastiff is not removed, it may hurt the lives of other people in the future!"
Jiang Chen smiled slightly: "Don't worry! Since it was done by a demon beast, our Chenwu Gym, as the only gym in Yunlan Town, of course we can't sit idly by! The habits of the black mastiff demon are recorded in detail in the "Ten Thousand Demon Spectrum". Let me think of a way to get rid of this vicious dog in the name of justice! First of all, we need to prepare something......"
The two brothers are wandering around in Linglong Gefang City, today is the fifteenth day of the month, almost all the shops in the Fang City are open for business, and it is also the most lively day of the month in the Fang Market, in addition to the bustling in front of the stalls in each store, even the Lingcha Shop, which usually has few customers, is also crowded with people, and it is said that there are people from the Taoist Court.
Jiang Chen and Jiang Wu were also curious to go to the Lingcha shop to join in the fun, and they saw everyone in the Lingcha shop surrounding a middle-aged man with kind eyebrows and a slightly chubby body, listening to the middle-aged man talk about anecdotes.
The middle-aged man was talking about joining the army, as if he was saying that there was a demon tide in the northwest frontier, and many demon beasts were in trouble in the frontier, and the Dao Court planned to recruit the Taoist heroes of the rivers and lakes to form a "Taoist army" to deal with the demon tide. It is also said that those who have made meritorious contributions have the opportunity to join the Taoist court, or receive a reward for an official position in the world.
Jiang Chen and Jiang Wu listened for a while, they were not very interested, and they didn't have the money to buy a pot of spiritual tea, so it was inconvenient to sit for a long time, so they quit the tea shop again.
After Liu Gongzi and the others came out of a Taoist shop, they happened to meet Jiang Chen and Jiang Wu again.
Jiang Chen greeted with a smile, and Liu Gongzi and the others just nodded disdainfully and didn't pay much attention.
Suddenly, the black mastiff barked wildly and rushed straight at Jiang Wu. Jiang Wu was startled and immediately fled into the woods not far away.
"Liu Gongzi, why do you want to summon spirit beasts to attack your brother!?" Jiang Chen exclaimed loudly: "Please recall the black mastiff, my brother is not the opponent of this demon, don't hurt him!
"I ......" Liu Gongzi was also taken aback, he said in astonishment: "I didn't call the black mastiff, it, it ran out by itself." ”
When the surrounding Dao heroes heard about the murder of the demons, they all looked here. Linglong Pavilion is a place where fighting is strictly prohibited, and it is taboo to commit murder, and even Liu Gongzi does not dare to violate it. He hurriedly called out to the black mastiff: "Black slave, come back quickly!
But the black mastiff was already violent and difficult to tame on weekdays, and at this time he was even more crazy, turning a deaf ear to his call, and rushed towards Jiang Wu vigorously. Liu Gongzi suddenly regretted in his heart, he knew that he should have used a chain to hold the black mastiff so that he would not lose control.
"Why are you still stunned, chase after you!" Liu Gongzi shouted to a few people beside him, and then hurriedly chased forward.
"Help, help!" Jiang Wu shouted, but he fled very fast, and fled into the woods in three strokes, the black mastiff followed, and Liu Gongzi and Jiang Chen and others also chased after him. Those Taoist heroes who like to watch the excitement also chased after them.
Jiang Chen and the others had just chased into the forest, only to see a blue light suddenly flash in front of them, followed by a miserable scream.
Liu Gongzi arrived immediately, but saw that the black mastiff's head had been cut off in half, almost detached from the body, blood was spraying wildly, and the black mastiff's body twitched a few times, and then it was motionless, and there was no breath at all.
Jiang Wu put away his sword and sat down on the ground, panting heavily, with a horrified look of escaping death.
"Brother, are you okay!" Jiang Chen hurriedly rushed to Jiang Wu's side, winked at him, and whispered in his ear: "Good acting! ”
"You, you dare to hurt my black slave!" Liu Gongzi saw that the dog was dead in the blink of an eye, and immediately turned into anger, intending to be held accountable.
Jiang Chenwen crepe said: "Liu Gongzi's words are wrong, all of you have witnessed that it was this black mastiff spirit beast that chased and killed her brother for no reason, and only then did he give up his brother's life, risking death to cut out a sword, lucky to protect himself, it is really a self-defense move." ”
"Fortunately, it was the younger brother who killed the black mastiff, if it was the black mastiff who injured the younger brother, this is a market set up by the Taoist Court, Liu Gongzi dared to openly commit murder, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape the responsibility of the Taoist Court!"
"You ......" Liu Gongzi was angry and was about to make trouble, but the young man beside him hurriedly grabbed his sleeve and whispered a few words in his ear.
Seeing that something was wrong, there were more and more Taoist onlookers, all of whom came to see the excitement. Liu Gongzi's family background is considered to be rich and powerful in the world, but in the eyes of the Dao Ting, I am afraid that he is just a casual cultivator, and there is not much difference from the surrounding Taoist heroes.
"This boy is too careless, how can he let such a fierce spirit beast move freely! Thanks to this young Dao man's luck, he slashed the key point with a sword, otherwise the consequences would be very serious!" a Dao Xia commented.
Liu Gongzi was angry in his heart, but how dare he resist the rules of the Taoist court! He knew that he was at a loss, so he could only wave his sleeves in hatred and turn away.
