27. Gifts, one hundred and sixty-six heads

The starry night is dim,

Snow!

The heavy snow seemed to clothe the city in a layer of silver.

The snow everywhere glows faintly in the moonlight.

In the silence of the night, there was a faint sound of footsteps.

In the dark, Lin Mang dragged a knife step by step.

In his left hand, he dragged a string of human heads, dragging a trail of blood in the snow that saw no end in sight.

The faces on the man's head were already frozen and blue, and his face was pale and calm.

His eyes were filled with endless horror.

"Who?!"

The county soldiers patrolling the city wall noticed the figure in the distance and let out a loud shout.

Immediately after, there was the sound of a crossbow being loaded.

"Jinyi Wei 100 households, Lin Mang!"

The flat voice was particularly cold in this icy and snowy environment.

Lin Mang's face was grim, and he threw the token from his arms and threw it up.

The county soldier on the city wall took the token, confirmed that it was correct, and hurriedly turned around and said, "Quick, open the door!" ”

Although he wondered why this little flag of the hundred households appeared outside the city at night, this kind of thing was obviously not something he should ask more.

Although Jin Yiwei was not their direct boss, no one in this city dared to provoke this little flag lord easily.

The heavy gates slowly opened.

A county soldier hurriedly walked from the side, but he had just taken two steps when his pupils suddenly shrank, and a trace of horror flashed in his eyes.

A heart seems to be clutched by someone.

The breath seems to freeze at this moment!

Head!

Dense human heads!

The hideous human heads were strung on the rope so casually, and many faces were even more polished beyond recognition.

Lin Mang tilted his head slightly, Gu Jing Wubo's eyes did not contain a trace of emotion, and his voice was cold and terrifying: "Something?" ”

"No, no...... No! ”

The county soldiers couldn't help but shiver, obviously wearing thick cotton clothes, but at this moment, they felt extremely cold.

A few county soldiers walked over behind him, with a hint of flattering smiles on their faces.

They secretly scolded in their hearts, Wang Hu, this guy is a thief.

It's just that

Soon, the smiles on their faces froze, and they could no longer say a word.

Lin Mang dragged the head and slowly walked towards the city, and his figure gradually walked away.

It took dozens of breaths before the last human head disappeared from everyone's eyes.

One muttered, "One hundred and sixty-six ......"

He even saw the heads of the three masters of the Heavenly Sword Society in it.

That innate powerhouse who is famous for his sword skills!

At this moment, three figures came again in the darkness.

The flames burning on the torches illuminated the bleak faces.

One was lame, the other was missing an arm, and the last was blind in one eye and missing an ear.

But the brocade clothes on the three of them were extremely conspicuous under the reflection of the firelight.

On the backs of the three of them, they carried a frozen and stiff corpse.

Wang Dasheng grinned at the county soldiers, carried the corpse on his back, and limped into the city.

Finally came back alive.

Quiet......

Deathly quiet!

"Tonight...... I'm afraid something is going to happen! The county soldier muttered.

"Head, this ...... What does this adult want to do? ”

The county soldier holding the knife on his waist looked at the street in the distance and said quietly: "I'm afraid it's going to change." ”

……

Zhou family.

Tonight's Zhou family is very lively.

The mansion is lit up all over the place, and there are bright red lanterns hanging one after another, which is full of joy.

Because just today, the old lady of the Zhou family married a beautiful concubine.

It stands to reason that just marrying a concubine is far from being so big-of-a-business.

What's more, this is already the third concubine of the old lady of the Zhou family.

But the Zhou family was extremely eager for this matter, changed the norm, and did a big job.

Although the Zhou family has been suppressed many times by Jinyiwei, all the leading figures in the city are still here.

At the entrance of the mansion, guests continue to come to the door.

As long as the Zhou family does not fall for a day, it will still be the uncrowned king of this city.

……

In the ancestral hall of the Zhou family,

Zhou Shijin turned the Buddha beads, looked out the window and said with a smile: "Tonight is really lively." ”

Zhou Yuan nodded, puzzled: "Patriarch, I don't quite understand why I invited those people. ”

"Huh!" Zhou Shijin smiled, and he seemed to be in a very good mood.

"Recently, all parties in the city have been staring at our Zhou family, which one of them doesn't want to see our Zhou family's jokes?"

"But don't they have to come here now?"

"The sky of Yuanjiang City can't be turned over!"

Zhou Shijin put down the teacup in his hand, got up and said, "Let's go, go out with me to meet guests." ”

"This old man, he really doesn't accept the old man."

The two walked out of the ancestral shrine and came to the courtyard outside.

At this moment, the courtyard is full of banquets and friends.

Seeing Zhou Shijin walking out, everyone arched their hands and said: "I've seen Patriarch Zhou, Patriarch Zhou, congratulations." ”

"Congratulations!"

Some people stood up and said hello.

Zhou Shijin was full of spring breeze and said with a smile: "Tongxi!" Rejoice! ”

Outside the door, a doorman shouted loudly: "Jinyi Wei Zongqi, Master Tao has arrived!" Send a pair of jade horses! ”

Hearing this, everyone in the courtyard looked out of the door in surprise, surprised.

When did the Zhou family get on the line with Jinyiwei's people?

They had heard all the things that had happened in the city during this time.

Everyone knows that Lin Xiaoqi of the Hundred Households is checking Zhou's house, why did he get on the line with a general flag in a blink of an eye?

Some people originally planned to terminate their cooperation with the Zhou family, but after seeing this scene, they temporarily gave up the idea in their hearts and decided to wait and see for a while.

Zhou Shijin hurriedly greeted him and said, "Welcome to Mr. Tao, Mr. Tao can come, my Zhou family is shining." ”

Tao Ning smiled: "Patriarch Zhou has a good reputation. ”

Zhou Shijin hurriedly said: "Come, Tao Zongqi is seated." ”

"Hmm." Tao Ning bowed slightly and walked to the chairman's seat.

There is no simple one who can sit on this seat, and they are all well-known figures in the city.

Seeing Tao Ning coming, they all got up to salute.

……

Outside the Zhou family's mansion.

The two guards chatted with irritation.

"Alas, everyone else is drinking, so let's watch the gate in this icy and snowy place." A man with a knife in his hand made a fuss.

"No way, who made us just here!"

Suddenly, a figure slowly walked from the other end of the alley.

Feet on the thick snow make a "creaking" sound.

The figure is getting closer.

The two of them subconsciously looked at the figure.

"Jinyi Wei ......"

The two of them were stunned, didn't they already go in?

His gaze slowly moved, catching a glimpse of the strings of human heads behind him......

The two were terrified!

"Poof!"

A cold sword light slashed through.

The two heads tumbled to the ground, blood soaking the snow.

Blood gushes!

Splashed down on two large red lanterns hanging in the doorway.

Lin Mang dragged his knife and slowly walked into the gate.

A cold and indifferent voice rang out.

"Jinyiwei, 100 households in Yuanjiang City, Lin Mangt came to say hello, and gave away 166 heads!"
