In the Ming Dynasty, the endless wasteland, the cold wind rolled up the wind and sand, and several vultures flew up from the ruins and broken walls, making a desolate chirping sound from time to time.

A troop of iron horsemen rushed out of the slightly dilapidated garrison, their hooves flying, and in an instant they disappeared into the vast mist.

Under the border guards in the distance, a group of naked conscripts, under the supervision of a team of soldiers, worked hard to carry stone bricks weighing tens of kilograms. The working age ranged from 60 to 10-year-olds. They were all from nearby villages and had been forcibly recruited here.

At noon, the sun was hot, and under the huge amount of labor, some people gradually became physically exhausted.

"A bunch of poor goods, hurry up for me, and then cut and feed the dogs!"

The pockmarked official on the side urged impatiently, and then raised the whip to whip an old man, who was in pain and lost his strength, and as soon as the forty kilograms of stone bricks on his shoulders were taken off, the whole person and the stones were rolled to the side, and his head was covered with blood.

This pockmarked official, surnamed Chen, nicknamed Chen Mazi, is a well-known evil official in the army!

Seeing Lao Suo fall, Chen Mazi was furious, pulled out the knife on his waist, and looked fierce: "You are an old immortal, you dare to delay the border defense, if you don't use your blood to deter it today, you probably think that I am joking!"

A young man suddenly ran out on the side, and begged for mercy in front of Lao Suo: "Official, spare your life, please spare my father!" He is old, and I will help my father carry this stone. ”

"Fuck off, which onion are you? Do you deserve to let me keep someone under the knife? Chen Mazi kicked the young man away impatiently, picked up the knife and walked towards the weak old man, his face full of anger.

Seeing that there was no way to live, Lao Suo pounced hard and howled: "You stupid official who eats people and doesn't spit out bones, I will fight with you!"

"Look for death!" With a wave of the long knife on his face, he saw a flash of the knife, and when he saw the blood sealing his throat, the old man fell to the ground like a wooden stake, completely lifeless.

"Father!" The young man hurriedly ran over, hugged the lifeless corpse, and cried out loudly, and those laborers shrank their necks one by one when they saw this scene, and a few of them were stubborn, and they all looked at Chen Mazi angrily.

"What's the matter, you want to rebel?" Noticing everyone's emotions, Chen Mazi smiled coldly, his eyes swept over those laborers, and those people all lowered their heads one by one, with a panicked face, afraid that they would become the next boss.

Seeing the frightened eyes of the people around him, Chen Mazi sneered, no one here could resist his majesty. But there was also an accident, when Chen Mazi's gaze fell on a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, his eyes were slightly stunned. immediately became cold.

The young man was not at all like the other conscripts who did not dare to resist, and his eyes glared at him viciously. The look in his eyes was like that of an angry tiger. Mazi's face trembled for no reason, and after reacting, his expression immediately became gloomy.

A cruel smile appeared on his face, and he seemed to smile and said, "Little ghost, do you have an opinion about me?"

Not long after the young man first came here, he didn't seem to know much about Chen Mazi, so he was not afraid, and scolded angrily: "You evil official, how can you kill good people in vain?"

As soon as these words came out, they immediately frightened everyone around them and gasped. This young man touching the brow of this evil official at this time is tantamount to plucking the hair on the tiger's buttocks. It's a pity that such a good boy is about to die.

Just when everyone was worried about whether they would be implicated, watching the pockmarked face of the evil official's face turn from black to green. A voice interrupted the gloomy atmosphere.

A passing general on the side shouted: "Chen Mazi, it's your turn to guard the dungeon today!" Hurry up and get ready to go on a substitute shift. ”

When Chen Mazi heard this, his expression suddenly became strange, he glanced at the young man fiercely, and then turned to leave.

Seeing that there was no more bloodshed, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Immediately, someone ran to the young man's side and persuaded:

"Boy, that Chen Mazi is a master who eats people and doesn't spit out bones, don't be so ignorant of current affairs next time, if you lose your life in vain, you won't be able to make it."

"yes, yes! You're a stupid kid, and if you provoke him, we'll suffer together. ”

For a while, everyone looked at Ye Fan with dissatisfaction and anger in their eyes.

Ye Fan saw everyone's dissatisfied looks, and there was a trace of displeasure on his face: "Why did that evil official kill someone, you are still facing him, Uncle Yang is such a good person, you were killed like this, not only did you have no sympathy, but came to accuse me." You are afraid of him, but I am not afraid of him. If I give in to this kind of person, then I would rather become a ghost under the sword! ”

Several elderly people said unhappily: "Why do you talk like this, this child, we kindly educate you and care about you."

"Humph! The Tao is different, and there is no conspiracy with each other. Ye Fan snorted angrily, stopped arguing with these people, picked up the stones under him, and walked forward.

An official who came to replace Chen Mazi looked at the crowd gathered around, and said unhappily: "What are you doing with the pestle, hurry up and do things, you have lost time, and you have good fruits to eat."

When everyone heard this, they didn't dare to delay and immediately picked up the stones and began the carrying work.

The official looked at the young man who was still holding his father's corpse in place, and coldly reprimanded: "Why are you still stunned here, if you don't want to die here, just complete the task well!"

The young man wanted to bury his father properly, but when he saw that the other party was about to draw a knife, he was immediately frightened and nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Yes, yes, I will do something right away."

After saying that, he immediately put on his back and quickly followed the team.

The official glanced indifferently at Lao Suo's corpse, and ordered the soldiers standing guard again: "Come on, drag this corpse outside to feed the dogs, and save the smell of infectious diseases."

……

The sky was getting darker, and the night scene was very desolate.

Rows of white cloth tents were temporarily erected under the dilapidated fortified city, and the enticing fragrance emanated from the tents.

When it was time to eat at night, although there were only greens and some nests, the laborers still ate happily.

Ye Fan slowly walked to the cooking pot, and when he opened the lid of the pot, he found that there was only one steamed bun left inside. Frowning at the crowd,

A few middle-aged people sitting at the edge of the dining table had been talking maliciously when Ye Fan came in, and seeing Ye Fan's puzzled eyes, the four of them looked at Ye Fan with a look of being sure of you:

"Little ghost, I'm sorry I forgot to leave you for today's meal, there is only one steamed bun and you will eat it."

The four of them laughed proudly, Ye Fan frowned, and the people around him also had a cold-eyed attitude, because everyone was dissatisfied with Ye Fan at noon.

Only a young man in the corner looked at those people with a gloomy face, then got up and came to Ye Fan, and handed Ye Fan the rice in his hand. showed an apologetic smile: "Xiao Ye, thank you, stand up for my father today, you are very brave, at least braver than me!"

Ye Fan looked at the food handed over, shook his head and didn't accept it. "Brother Dali, eat by yourself, I'm not hungry." Ye Fan didn't pick up the steamed buns in the pot, but left the tent directly.

A cold snort came from the corner: "Humph! What to pretend, offended Chen Mazi, and I don't know how to die in the future. ”

……

In the depths of the night, on a boulder outside the camp, a teenager sat quietly. The young man seemed to be in a state of flux, breathing very long and steady.

The starry night was like water, and the distant wasteland echoed with gusts of wind and howling. The clouds swept by, and a ray of moonlight fell on the boy.

At this moment, the young man's body seemed to have an invisible breath floating around, the wind floated the young man's clothes, the young man raised his right hand slightly, and the surrounding breath began to gather to the right palm, when the breath reached its peak, the young man's right palm slapped forward suddenly.

Rumble!

A hundred-pound boulder in front of him exploded in response to the sound and turned into debris, and when those bursting gravel bounced towards the young man's body, he was immediately blocked by a wall of qi.

The young man opened his dark eyes, and the private electric light flashed in his eyes.

This is an extremely strange young man, but his appearance is exactly the same as Ye Fan, except for the different temperaments he exudes, the two of them are simply carved out of the same mold.

The young man looked at his hands and sneered coldly, "Obviously, I have tempered such a powerful body for you, but I didn't expect you to be so unbearable, Ye Fan, you are really useless." Looking at the quiet barracks at night, a cruel smile lifted into the corner of the boy's mouth.

"What you can't do, I'll do it!" When the words fell, Ye Fan's figure was like the wind, dissipating in place.

In the middle of the night, except for the occasional footsteps of patrolling soldiers, there was a deathly silence, and the barracks were in prison.

Two middle-aged men who looked like officials were drinking and talking.

A fat-headed and big-eared official patted Chen Mazi on the shoulder, and said inarticulately: "Chen Mazi, was that girl strong enough last time."

Chen Mazi put down another bowl of wine, and he was also a little confused: "Lao Liu, to be honest, it's really good, I'll get one for Lao Tzu next time."

The fat-headed and big-eared official smiled, with a hint of blame in his eyes: "Hey, you guy doesn't know how important it is, how can you kill someone?"

"That bitch dared to bite me, and said she would kill me after she was done, how could I keep her." Chen Mazi poured himself a bowl of wine disapprovingly, and drank it all again.

"Cool! This wine is so strong! Delicious! ”

"Come on, come on, our brother will drink it all, next time I go out on business, I'll get you another one."

"Okay, that's it!"

Inside the prison, there was the sound of pushing the cup again.

The two continued to drink, when suddenly a dark wind rose in the prison. The slight coolness made the two of them tremble.

Chen Mazi looked around suspiciously: "Where did the wind come from in the prison?"

"Mazi, something is wrong!" The fat-headed, big-eared official immediately pressed the hilt of the sword at his waist, and his wine immediately woke up.

Chen Mazi also looked around suspiciously, holding the hilt of the knife vigilantly, after all, the two of them had been guards for many years, and their alertness was not comparable to ordinary people.

Stomp, stomp!

The sound of light footsteps gradually came, and the door of the cell was forcibly broken, and a figure wearing a silver mask appeared at the door of the dungeon.

Wang Mazi's face changed, and he immediately looked at the person who came, and said angrily: "Who is it?!"

At the door, Ye Fan, who was wearing a silver mask, looked at the two of them fixedly, as if he were looking at two dead people, but he didn't do it immediately.

The fat-headed and big-eared official pulled out his sword, his expression was cold, and when he saw that the person who came looked like a teenager, he was a little bolder: "Little ghost, you are really impatient, you dare to trespass into the barracks prison." After that, he walked towards Ye Fan with a knife, ready to capture this little ghost who trespassed into the dungeon.

"Humph! Two ants. Ye Fan smiled contemptuously and slapped it out of the air with one palm.

The two-hundred-pound fat man flew away in response to the sound and hit the wall of the dungeon, and lost his life. The fat man's chest went straight down.

"You, you, you...... Are you the murderer who has been rumored in the barracks these days? Chen Mazi was frightened by this scene, he had heard of this method of hurting people in the air, and it was a very powerful skill that only people who practiced martial arts had.

Ye Fan looked at the frightened Chen Mazi coldly, and ignored his nonsense: "Chen Mazi, the sky net is magnificent but not leaky, you have done a lot of evil, and today's retribution has arrived!" ”

The awe-inspiring voice of the obvious righteousness was like a hellish judgment in Chen Mazi's ears at this moment.

"You can't kill me...... This is a barracks prison, and you won't be able to escape if you kill me! Chen Mazi wanted to grasp the last straw, but unfortunately it was Ye Fan's indifferent smile that responded to him.

"I'm going to kill someone, and no one can stop me!"

With a gentle swing of his palm in the air, Wang Mazi's body had already crashed into the wall, and he lost his life in an instant.

"Hurry! There's movement in the dungeon! ”

The sound in the prison immediately alarmed the guards patrolling outside, and the guards soon rushed towards the dungeon, Ye Fan listened to the movement outside, and frowned. Looking at the prisoners in the prison who were staring at them with wide eyes, their expressions at the moment were like they had seen ghosts.

Ye Fan raised his hand lightly, wanting to kill these witnesses together, but suddenly his hand froze, and it seemed that there was some kind of force stopping Ye Fan.

Ye Fan held his head and howled angrily: "Are you crazy, if you don't kill them, you may be in trouble then."

Ye Fan's face was hideous, his complexion changed several times and finally returned to normal, and at the same moment, the cold aura on Ye Fan's body that was pressing and making people kick disappeared.

"What I do, don't worry about it!" Ye Fan snorted coldly, with a trace of pure light in his eyes, looked at Chen Mazi's corpse, sighed slightly, and then jumped and disappeared into the prison.

The guards quickly poured into the prison.

The cell door was breached, and the inside of the cell was in shambles. A bloated official in the lead looked gloomy when he saw this scene in prison.

directly ignored the corpses of the fat man and Wang Mazi in the prison, and roared violently: "Check! Check it out for me, and dig three feet into the ground to find out the murderer for me. ”

In the barren forest outside the barracks, Ye Fan's figure blended into the shadows of the trees like moonlight.

"My lord! Two of the guards on duty died! "The soldiers searched the dungeon and found nothing unusual except for two bodies.

Wang Meng's face was as if he had just eaten bitter melon: "Damn! This is the sixth incident this month, how to explain it to the above! ”

Wang Meng felt depressed, this matter was not handled well, maybe even he would be punished.

"Lord Wang! Two of the prisoners said they saw the murderer! ”

Wang Meng's face was overjoyed: "Hurry up and bring it over!" ”

Two frightened middle-aged men, escorted by several soldiers, came to Wang Meng in fear. Seeing Wang Meng, he was so frightened that he immediately knelt down.

"You saw the murderer?"

One of the prisoners said: "Back to your lord's words! It was too dark at that time, and we didn't really see it, but we knew that the murderer was not tall, and he vaguely looked like a young man! ”

Another prisoner kowtowed and begged for mercy: "My lord! That's all we know, and we don't dare to look at the rest! It's scary! ”

Wang Meng's face fell again in a blink of an eye, and he angrily reprimanded those soldiers, scolded a few times, and waved away.
