Volume 1: Born as a Hero Chapter 46: The Hanging Corpse of the Owl's Head

He Yi did not choose to go to Lirong Village with Jia Shao, Fan Wu and others, but rushed back to Pingyuan County overnight.

In He Yi's heart, secular people are blinded by the powerful strength of the "immortals" in their eyes.

That's why there are many things like deceiving ordinary people as bait.

After all, in the ancient legends that have been circulated in this world, the immortals are all compassionate and compassionate.

They are hidden in the mountains, can live with heaven and earth, and can call the wind and rain.

They have great magical powers, and they can make the people calm and rainy, and they cannot afford disasters, and the Quartet is stable.

The word "immortal" has been entrusted with too many beautiful meanings by people in the world for thousands of years, but the reality is unsatisfactory.

Because in fact, these "immortals" in their mouths have never done good deeds.

He Yi has just been released from prison, and he still doesn't know the changes in the secular world in the past ten years, but from the time he was released from prison until now, all he has seen and heard along the way is that ordinary people are suffering.

Cultivators, that is, the immortals in their mouths, have been bewitching sentient beings under various guises.

At the same time, they not only earned enough reputation, but also attracted all kinds of court officials to obey their words, from the emperor and the national teacher, down to the county prince.

What He Yi saw, although it was only the tip of the iceberg, was certain, but it was certain that such things happened everywhere.

Whose world is this world?

For the first time, He Yi felt deeply confused and entangled.

...... ......

He Yi carried General Zhao's body on his shoulders, took it back to Pingyuan County, and hung it with a rope outside the Pingyuan City Gate.

Soon after, he carved out a wooden plaque, staggered over, hung the plaque on the chest of General Zhao's corpse, stained with the blood dripping from General Zhao's neck, and wrote the four big characters "Sinner through the Ages" on the wooden plaque.

Similar to yesterday's incident, He Yi didn't know if there had been such a situation before this.

Perhaps, but perhaps, none of the soldiers who were counted survived, so the news did not spread, so the world did not know.

But this time, someone survived......

It won't be long before this matter will be spread by the surviving people, and then the word will spread more and more.

He Yi is well aware of the consequences of this matter once it spreadsβ€”β€”β€”β€” which is very likely to directly cut off the trust between the people and the officials.

And once that trust is lost, it's almost irretrievable.

"From now on, how many people will be willing to join the army?" After everything was done, He Yi sighed deeply.

He swallowed the cow with the bottle of wine, like a drunken maniac, desperately trying to get himself drunk.

It was the last thing he wanted to do, but he had to do.

He had to break that pretense, and he had to be a pioneer again.

Just like ten years ago, he personally opened the door of the cultivation realm.

Only this time, he wants to tell the entire world that people who cultivate truth are not immortals.

...... ......

"Oh my God, what just happened here?"

"Look at the armor on that person's body! It should be the armor of the Huyang armyβ€”β€”β€”β€” Huh? Isn't this the general Zhao who came from Huyang City? Was he killed by the thieves of Li Rongzhai?"

"It should be, I saw with my own eyes that this General Zhao led his troops out of the city yesterday and went to suppress the bandits......"

"It's over, even General Zhao has been defeated, I heard that he is still an apprentice of an immortal in the Qi Cultivation Sect......"

"Even the apprentices of the immortals have lost!

β€œ......”

This gruesome scene soon attracted a large number of passers-by to watch, point fingers, and talk constantly.

The people were a little confused about the situation, thinking to themselves, even if General Zhao was ineffective in suppressing the bandits this time and was defeated by the thieves in Lirong Village, he didn't need to be treated like this, right?

Is this a demonstration to Pingyuan Countyβ€”β€”β€”β€” the hanging of the corpse?

Besides, they had all heard that this General Zhao had something to do with the Qi Cultivation Sect. If this incident annoys the Qi Cultivation Sect, then something big will happen.

If one is not done well, the whole plain will be implicated.

He Yi just sat quietly on the sidelines, with his back to the city wall, gulping down and ignoring all this.

He was waiting.

More and more people watched, and it didn't take long for the city gate to be blocked by water.

The soldiers defending the city found out about the situation here and sent people to check on it, and several civilians who reported to the city also came to the outside of the city with a group of soldiers.

Seeing this, He Yi got up and carried the wine gourd, walked quickly into the center of the crowd, stretched out his hand and pointed to the corpse of General Zhao, and shouted loudly: "This person! This person is General Zhao of Huyang! Zhao Immortal Master of the Qi Sect! This is the person! Under the pretext of suppressing bandits, he used the lives of the people's army to explore strange treasures for himself, cruel to the people, and extremely selfish!"

"Huh, look, is that the new General He?" A few people noticed He Yi on the side, but when they saw He Yi covered in blood, they didn't dare to rush forward to ask.

"What does General He mean by that?

"I don't know yet, let's listen to it later! Looking at General He's angry appearance, something is definitely wrong!"

Everyone surrounded He Yi in the center, waiting to hear what He Yi would say.

After a while, He Yi drank wildly again, and shouted drunkly: "Yesterday, the purpose of this General Zhao to lead his troops out was not to go to Lirong Village to suppress bandits at all! Instead, he used the newly recruited soldiers as bait to attract the attention of the strange beasts in the dry snow forest, and then he did something to steal them! Those who have harmed the people's army in this way should be killed by the corpses of the owls to tell the world!"

He Yi told the story of the incident, and his tone was indignant, whether the surrounding soldiers and the people believed it or not, at least since then, this suspicion has begun to arise.

Besides, as Yi Yi said, none of the soldiers who went to suppress the bandits have returned until now.

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was in an uproar!!

"Dry Snow Forest? That is the most terrible place of death north of Rongzhou, except for the Northern Wilderness Snow Plain! What did he ask our soldiers from the plains to do in that hellish place?"

"Didn't you hear just now? I went treasure hunting for this General Zhao, tsk...... I just said that I can't go to a place like a barracks, and I don't know how I will be called by someone! I don't know how he will die when the time comes. ”

"I don't know if this news is true or not! Don't talk nonsense yet! How can an immortal harm us ordinary people?"

"How can it be fake? General He is the great benefactor of our Pingyuan County, he ran away from Lirong Village and saved the entire plain, is it necessary for him to lie to us? Moreover, I heard that this General Zhao is still an immortal who knows the immortal law, and he can hurt the immortal like this, and it is estimated that the ancient beast in the dry snow forest can do it. ”

"That seems to be the case. Tell me, these immortals just went, why do they want to involve us ordinary people? Alas, he deserves to be so harmful to the people's army!"

"Shhhh

β€œ......”

The people below pointed and whispered. They were sympathetic to He Yi, and they were full of anger at the headless corpse of General Zhao.

"It turns out that immortals are such scourges!Give my husband back!" In the crowd, a woman with her hair in a bun cried heartbreakingly, throwing an egg from the basket at General Zhao's corpse.

Her newlywed husband, who was one of the recruits, suddenly learned of this, and his heart was filled with grief and he couldn't bear it anymore.

"He keeps saying that he wants to protect the safety of our plains, but he is only for his own personal gain!" another man threw over the half-rotten turnip.

"Cultivators are not welcome in Pingyuan County! let them get out!"

In the midst of angry abuse, General Zhao's body was smashed by countless stinky fish and rotten vegetables, and the stench was overflowing.

Seeing that it was about to be overwhelmed, the defenders of the city gate had to send a team to disperse the surrounding people.

Outside the city gate became deserted again, coming and going quickly, but He Yi knew in his heart that this matter would soon become a saliva story of the villagers after tea and dinner, and it would be widely spread.

Especially the families of the dozens of recruits who died.

Moreover, since Jia Shao, Fan Wu and others have already thrown themselves into Lirong Village, with the wisdom of Gongliangju, they will definitely try their best to spread the news into Pingyuan County and use it to disturb the hearts of the people in Pingyuan.

At that time, it will inevitably be another siege.

"Adjutant General He?" A city gate defender recognized He Yi and hurriedly called behind him: "Go and tell General Pei! It's Adjutant General He, Vice General He is back!"

He Yi came to the plain for a short time, and maybe some people didn't recognize him, but after experiencing a plain offensive and defensive battle, and doing things such as burning Lirong Village, He Yi's name had already spread throughout the plain military camp, from all the generals to every soldier, they all admired He Yi very much.

"Vice General He, why are you here, the people who suppress the bandits? Also, what's going on with this General Zhao?"

Pei Dong rode over, and when he saw the corpse of General Zhao hanging on a high place, covered in blood, he was shocked, and hurriedly went over to put the corpse down.

The general from Huyang City died in their Pingyuan County, which is remarkable.

At this moment, He Yi stretched out his hand and stopped him.

"General Pei, don't you see it? This is a sinner through the ages, hiccup...... Sinners!" He Yi said, pointing to the bloody wooden sign hanging on the corpse, and poured a sip of liquor into his mouth, his cheeks were red, and he was already slightly drunk.

Pei Dong frowned and looked around, but when he saw that there was no one around, he asked in a low voice, "General Zhao's corpse, you hung it?"

"Not bad!" He Yi nodded, bluntly.

"Shhh ”

He looked at General Zhao's corpse, and then turned his gaze to He Yi, feeling puzzled.

Will the immortals, who are known as immortals, also die?

Died at the hands of Li Rongzhai? Or ...... Died at the hands of Ho Yi?

Pei Dong glanced at He Yi with a solemn expression, his face was calm, but there were turbulent waves in his heart.

How did he do it?

Pei Dong had a faint bad premonition in his heart.

Although he didn't know what exactly happened in the process of suppressing the bandits, Pei Dong's intuition told him that something big was going to happen in Pingyuan County......
