Chapter 271: Why Bow Your Head
[You and the sword ghost killed the evil officials, and the corpses were hung in the city, but they did not leave, but sat in the city and sheltered the big array. 】
[Those who take the opportunity to commit adultery will be killed; There are demons and evil that secretly attack the Huai River, and the ghosts devour it. 】
[It seems to occupy this city, and wait for the official to come again.] 】
Killing the city officials and leaving a name does not mean the end.
In troubled times, there were demons and sneakers everywhere, and if there was no protection from the city officials' formation, only the officers and soldiers in the city and the scattered cultivators would not be able to last long.
It will be like Hunjiang City, under the invasion of demonic cultivators, it will be completely burned.
If such a situation is formed, then this city official might as well not be killed.
At least for ninety percent of the people in the city, they were not oppressed by evil officials, but would die of "chivalry and righteousness" because of this.
Jiang He naturally wouldn't let this happen.
As a result, a strange scene appeared in the city of Huaihe.
The officers, soldiers, and monks who were supposed to shelter the people hid in their homes and shivered, not daring to come forward.
The hideous ghost with a green face and fangs walks in broad daylight, maintaining order, punishing the wicked, and killing the demons.
All these situations naturally fell into the eyes of the people in the city.
They gradually understood something.
Although he was still afraid and fearful of the ghost, he did not dare to appear in front of it, but he gradually resumed his daily activities.
In this process, the identity of the knife ghost gradually spread-
It has been almost 20 years since Qiao Qiao disappeared.
No matter what kind of reputation it had at the time, it should have been forgotten for such a long time.
But......
Although Qiao Qiao died, the Qiao family did not die.
Qiao Zi inherited his father's business, and among the warriors of the Huai River, he was also a well-known figure.
Qiao Qiao, as his father, is also a part of his story, so he retains the memory of many people.
When the warriors in the city heard the name Qiao Qiao, they felt a little familiar, and after thinking about it for a while, they quickly awakened the dusty memory and remembered the former character.
The identity of the sword ghost was also revealed.
When the people in the city learned the identity of the sword ghost, they understood why it, as a fierce ghost with a blue face and fangs, would attack the father and son of the city officials in the name of eradicating the wicked......
This Huaihe City is the hometown of the ghosts.
It was also a "hero" who helped the weak and left many stories.
Several elderly storytellers, in the teahouse, told the story of the Iron Fist hero, who had long been ignored.
Many people in the city were also curious about the experience of the sword ghost.
Why did the famous Iron Fist hero disappear in the mountains and forests?
What happened to it, it became a terrible ghost, and after nearly twenty years, it finally returned to this Huaihe City?
Does it remember who it is, its past?
Or is it just a simple name?
It's not just the people of the city who think this way.
Qiao Zi was also apprehensive.
On that day, he heard the sword ghost say his name, but he did not come forward to recognize him.
In the past few days, he has tried to find the knife ghost many times and ask the truth, but he has stopped halfway.
He wasn't terrified of the horror of the ghosts.
But......
Seventeen years have passed.
He had reached his father's old age.
Can my father still recognize him......
It is said that after a person dies and turns into a ghost, he will no longer think about the things before his death.
Father, is it still a father......
Qiao Zi was pacing at home, but was slapped on the head with a palm.
He looked back and saw his mother in a kitchen dress, and frowned.
"Thinking about all these things all day, go and call your dad home for dinner."
"It's been seventeen years, I don't know how turbulent it is outside, how much hardship I have suffered......"
"I haven't cooked for so many years, and the dishes I used to be the best at are now a little difficult to grasp the heat, and I have tried many times, and I don't know if your father is still used to eating ......"
Qiao Zi listened to her mother's babbling words.
I saw her re-dye her gray hair black, rub eye powder on the corners of her wrinkled eyes, and rub rouge on her cheeks.
As if he had come out of his memory, he raised his eyebrows and opened his mouth to scold.
"Why don't you go quickly?"
“…… Got it. ”
Qiao Zi nodded obediently and walked out of the house.
Behind him came the voice of his mother.
"By the way, call someone to call my sister back, remember to bring Xiaochen and them to ......"
"I've got to clean up again......"
……
Qiao Zi came all the way to the official mansion, regrouped his mood in front of the gate, and stepped inside.
I saw that in the courtyard of the government, the blindfolded monk was sitting under the tree and drinking tea, while playing against another young knight.
In the center of the courtyard, a tall and burly, blue-faced and fanged ghost was slowly wielding a knife, as if he realized something.
Seeing the focused expression of the blue-faced ghost.
Although it is very different from what I remember, whether it is appearance or movement.
Qiao Zi was in a trance, as if he saw a sturdy man, sweating and practicing boxing.
"Daddy."
"You're here."
The blue-faced ghost looked focused, his movements did not stop, and he spoke lightly.
Qiao Zi is in charge of the martial arts hall, and there are many disciples under him, and he is usually powerful and serious.
At this time, he hesitated like a child.
"My mother told you to go home for dinner......
"Got it, I'll go back after practicing this set of knife techniques."
Hearing these familiar words, Qiao Zi's nose was sour.
Father's words rang in my ears.
"What are you crying about, what an adult."
"Go back, I'll come later."
"Hmm!"
Qiao Zi held back his emotions, nodded vigorously, and turned to leave.
The blue-faced ghost stood in the courtyard, still concentrating on the dancing knife.
The blindfolded monk raised his hand and smiled.
"Brother Qiao, what kind of sword technique are you practicing, how come I have never seen it."
“……”
You can't say that the action is too deformed, and it can't be matched at all, right?
The blue-faced ghost grimaced and said seriously.
"This is my own knife technique, and I am still practicing."
"Oh? I'll have to see it when I go back. ”
The blindfolded monk fell down again and said to the knight in front of him.
"You know, Xiaoxiao, no matter how emotional the ghost is, it can do it without tears."
"The crying of the wandering ghost is either a means to lure passers-by, or a habit in life......"
"That's nice."
“……”
The blue-faced ghost tightened his expression.
The swordsman's eyes brightened.
The blindfolded monk continued.
"Xiaoxiao, the so-called father, will never expose his weak side, no matter how excited he is, he must maintain his posture ......"
"Brother Liu!"
"Brother Qiao, go back quickly, don't delay, the food at home will be cold if you drag it any longer."
"Don't waste your wife's sincerity."
“…… All right. ”
……
Jiang He saw Qiao Qiao's departing back, and shook his head with a smile.
After being away from home for seventeen years, not only Qiaozi, but also Brother Qiao's mood was also worried.
However, these are all things to be faced.
Own words......
Let's help Brother Qiao deal with the tail of the hand.
Don't let the boring people disturb their purity.
"How much longer?"
"Half an hour."
"Almost."
Jiang He got up from under the tree and spoke.
"You look after the city here, and I'll come when I go."
[It should be the fourth year of the calendar, the seventh day of the first month of durian. 】
[The matter of Huaihe City spread quickly, and the imperial court sent new city officials to come, and some criminal officials followed, wanting to impose punishment and punish you. 】
[You go out of the city to meet him, and defeat the criminal officer, so that he will flee, and the sin will deeper. 】
[Later, he invited the new city officials to enter, succeeded the Huai River, sat in charge of the overall situation, and sheltered the city. 】
"Inheritance, why bother?"
"Anyway, the Xie family's father and son are already dead, you only need to bow your head slightly, and someone will naturally resolve this matter for you......"
"In the end, at most, I will go back to the family for ten years, and I should be in retreat."
"It's good now, you beat away the Xie criminal officer sent by the imperial court, and completely broke the face of the Xie family and the imperial court."
"It couldn't have been any better."
The new Huaihe City official sighed.
Because when Jiang He killed the official of Huaihe City, he reported himself to his home and revealed his identity.
The imperial court made a corresponding disposition:
Let the monks of the Liu family come to take over as the official of Huaihe City.
He also asked Brother Xie to serve as a criminal officer, punished Jiang He, and brought him to justice.
This strange arrangement, undoubtedly intended to be raised high and gently lowered-
Jiang He killed the Xie family's people, so the Xie monk, as a criminal officer, dealt with him, naturally gave the Xie family face and steps.
At the same time, the new city officials who followed closely as the people of the Liu family will inevitably protect Jiang He.
It will stop Brother Xie from being ruthless and protect him from really having any accidents.
In the end, just give a random charge, and the matter will be revealed.
The reason why the imperial court made this arrangement was also because of Jiang He's past contributions.
He presented the treasure mirror of the heart, and made the thousand faces of the demon ambushed.
He is also a descendant of the Liu family, and he also has close contacts with the Wang family and other family members, and established the Taoyuan Immortal Sect.
He even rescued the officials of Hunjiang City and killed the evil cultivators who slaughtered the city.
After this series of actions.
Jiang He's prestige in the family court has reached a high level.
Coupled with the tragic experience of the past, even if he has never returned home, he has become a new generation of Liu's Tianjiao and has attracted the attention of the family.
In this case, what is it to kill a person from the Xie family?
Anyway, it wasn't the ancestor of the Xie family who killed him, so he would be punished a little.
That's why it's ......
The new Huaihe City official was completely unable to understand Jiang He's behavior.
It's just a small thing, but you want to make it bigger?
Jiang He shook his head slightly.
What's hard to understand.
He took out the mirror of connoisseurship, not to help the family court, but to prevent the Thousand-Faced Demon from continuing to cause chaos.
He became friends with Wang Puchuan and others, not because of their family status, but because they recognized themselves.
Kill the red-robed evil cultivator because he deserves to be killed.
To save the officials of Hunjiang City is to help the poor people casually.
Everything he did was out of his heart, and he never considered the prestige and favor of the family.
It's the same today.
He kills the person who deserves to be killed, why should he bow to the family?
As for this choice, will it affect Taoyuan Township, will it affect the knife ghost Qiao Qiao, and even his family......
The former, Wang Puchuan and others, who are in charge of the Taoyuan Immortal Sect, also have the status of a family, and they have the credit for exterminating the Thousand-Faced Demon.
Even if the Xie family wanted to get angry, the Wang family and the other families would not agree, but cut it internally.
Taoyuan is Taoyuan, and Chiyun is Chiyun.
If you want to get angry, why don't you go and destroy the Liu family first?
Latter......
If the family doesn't treat mortals as human beings, how can they put sneakiness in their eyes?
In the eyes of the imperial court, he killed the officials of Huaihe City and angered the family.
From beginning to end, Jiang He was the only one.
It's just a knife ghost, but it's just a weapon in his hand.
Is it possible that when someone is killed, instead of the murderer, he goes to want a weapon?
So......
"If you hate me, you will fight, and your reputation will rise."
"Brother Qiao, you have to work hard."
Jiang He was looking forward to it.
The more legendary the spirits and skills, the more powerful their effects will be.
In the case that the ghost spirit knife becomes its own spiritual martial art, if Qiao Qiao is a ghost in the knife, he will also leave many legends and become an epic heroic spirit......
Then, the Ghost Spirit Knife will turn into a pure summoning spirit martial and be used to summon Qiao Qiao.
Or will it get an additional effect bonus?
Or both?
Either way, Jiang He will not lose.
Today's one more ~
