Chapter 1797 Fish Takes the Hook
The quiet afternoon was suddenly broken by the hoofbeats of five hundred cavalry. This escort from the Zheng family was like a strong wind, roaring towards Taoyuan Village.
At the front of the team, Deputy Commander Ha Fu is heroic, riding a majestic war horse, leading the team to advance rapidly, with firm eyes, and no fear in the face of the unknown ahead.
Beside Haval, Huang Silang rode a big maroon horse. His posture looked a bit funny, almost standing upright on the horse's back. There was a trace of pain on his face, but he endured it forcefully.
“Aren’t you tired from riding like this?” Haval’s voice came from the helmet. Although it was not loud, it seemed particularly clear in the silent march.
Huang Silang rolled his eyes and cursed secretly. He originally wanted to scold Harvard, but thinking of the purpose of his trip, he could only suppress the anger in his heart. His butt was already so painful from being spanked that it was still being rubbed by the saddle, so what? Wouldn't he rather sit down and ride a horse? However, he still has to sit down.
"Commander Hafer, when you get to the place, you have people kill all the unruly people and leave that person to me. I will torture him well." Huang Silang said through gritted teeth, with a twinkle in his eye. A spark of revenge.
"No, I can avenge you, but I can't massacre the village. The head of the family will be furious." However, Hafu rejected him without hesitation, his tone was firm, and there was no room for negotiation.
Harvard originally looked down on Huang Silang, but it was only because Huang Silang's sister was kind to him that he was willing to help.
Seeing that Harvard flatly rejected his request, Huang Silang felt extremely angry and disappointed.
But he didn't dare to say anything, because he knew very well that Harvard was a mercenary, and he had a lot of life debts on his hands. He was cruel by nature. If he was provoked, his life might be lost.
The speed of the guards was as fast as the wind. They galloped past like beasts, with a strong murderous aura. Their figures drew a long shadow in the sun, like a black lightning, shuttling In the mountains and forests, we finally arrived at our destination, Taoyuan Village.
The Zheng family's guards are obviously elite, and their steps are uniform, as if they have been carefully trained, and every step they take appears powerful and firm. The armor gleamed in the sun, like an impenetrable barrier, tightly surrounding the entire village.
At this time, the little girl who had been rescued by Liu Jun had panic and anxiety written all over her face. Her eyes flashed with fear, and her steps were hurried and panicked. As she ran towards Liu Jun's house, she shouted loudly: "Big brother, big brother, something big has happened!"
At this time The tranquility of Taoyuan Village has been broken, and it seems slightly panicked.
Liu Jun heard the little girl's cry and immediately rushed out to catch the little girl rushing over. He gently stroked her hair and comforted her: "Don't panic, don't panic, what's wrong?"
The little girl looked at Liu Jun, her eyes full of trust and dependence, panting heavily, and said quickly: "Brother, come, there are many bad guys riding big horses. The village chief said that you should follow us. Run quickly, he organized people to block him for a while."
Her voice was full of urgency and worry, and her face was full of panic, which was in sharp contrast to Liu Jun's calm look.
"Don't worry, it's okay, big brother is here" Liu Jun comforted softly.
Liu Jun's voice seemed like a warm force that slowly flowed into the little girl's heart, gradually stabilizing her emotions.
The little girl's big eyes were flashing with fear before, but after hearing Liu Jun's words, those fears seemed to be dispelled. Her little body no longer trembled, and a trace of determination returned to her eyes.
As Liu Jun approached, the scene at the entrance of the village became clearer. The villagers were holding hoes or sickles, or even some old people were holding crutches, but they all had firm looks on their faces and stood there without fear, like warriors guarding the territory.
"Who are you?"
Vice Commander Hafer was sitting on a tall horse with a burly figure. His eyes were like cold swords, piercing the old village chief.
Although the old village chief was old, he was no less imposing. Although he was leaning on a cane, his body was straight and his eyes were bright. He looked directly at Deputy Commander Harvard and stared back without fear.
"Old chief of Taoyuan Village, I know that all the villagers in this land belong to the Zheng family. Your Zheng family's guards are running rampant on our territory. Aren't you afraid that the head of the Zheng family will pursue you?" the old village chief's voice was loud and clear. firm.
Vice Commander Hafer's eyes changed slightly, his brows furrowed slightly, his eyes swept over the faces of the villagers, and finally fell back on the old village chief.
This was the first time he encountered a villager who dared to resist. He originally thought of just killing the person Huang Silang mentioned, but looking at this, it seemed a bit difficult to do so.
If all these villagers were killed, it would be called massacre of the village. Originally, he had mobilized troops privately. If the family owner found out about the massacre of the village, no one would be able to protect him.
"Old village chief, if you don't want so many villagers to be buried with you, hand over the person who bullied Mr. Huang. I guarantee that you will all be fine," Deputy Commander Hafu said after thinking for a while.
"No one here bullies Huang Silang, but Huang Silang bullies us too much. We have to pay 70% of the farmland tax. How much do we collect in total?" The old village chief looked at Huang Silang, who was also riding a big horse. , eyes filled with hatred.
"Old guy, what are you talking about? You can't even pay the tax, so why are you still alive?" Huang Silang's voice echoed in the empty village, and his eyes were full of contempt and disdain.
"I can definitely survive better than a bastard like you." However, the old village chief was not someone who was easily intimidated, and he retorted unceremoniously.
The words of the old village chief were full of determination and courage, but this behavior really made some people secretly sweat for him. Huang Silang was so angry that he swung his whip in an attempt to use violence to overwhelm the old village chief. However, he did not expect that the whip did not achieve the desired effect.
At this moment, there was a "swish" sound, a cold light flashed, and the whip snapped. The occurrence of this scene surprised everyone. Deputy Commander Harvard's pupils shrank suddenly, and the first thought in his mind was that there was a master present.
This move was so fast that he didn't even react. This shows that the opponent's strength is likely to be superior to his.
At this time, Deputy Commander Haval was filled with shock and curiosity, wanting to know who this master was.
Huang Silang was also startled, looked around, and then saw Liu Jun walking slowly. The moment he saw Liu Jun, Huang Silang shivered with fright.
Under countless gazes, Liu Jun slowly came to the front of the crowd and looked up at Huang Silang. His eyes were full of indifference and disdain. "Huang Silang, Mr. Huang, we meet again."
His voice was calm and firm, as if everything that had just happened was just a small episode to him, and these cavalry were just crumbling dogs that were not worthy of him taking a second look.
And Huang Silang's eyes were full of fear, but with a hint of unyielding light. He knew that at this moment, he was like a candle swaying in the wind, which could be blown out by the ruthless wind at any time. But he is Huang Silang, and there are five hundred cavalry behind him, as well as Deputy Commander Hafu. He cannot be intimidated so easily.
“Harvard, this is the person who bullied me.” Huang Silang’s voice was trembling.
Harvard did not answer, but looked at the man silently, his eyes full of vigilance.
In fact, Huang Silang didn't need to say it, he also knew that this man was the master who took care of Huang Silang.
The so-called connoisseurs know whether something is there as soon as they make a move. Liu Jun's aura is as strong as a bright light in the middle of the night, making it impossible to ignore.
“Come on, come down, I feel uncomfortable looking up like this.” Liu Jun looked at Huang Silang and said lightly.
His voice was calm, but full of irresistible power.
Huang Silang's body trembled involuntarily, and his heart was filled with fear. But he thought that he was now strong, and his courage became even stronger.
"You, just go down if you say so. Why should I listen to you." Huang Silang shouted bravely. Although his voice was trembling, it was full of determination.
Seeing Huang Silang's bluffing look, Liu Jun found it funny and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, almost laughing.
“Just because you peed your pants,” Liu Jun laughed.
Huang Silang's face instantly turned as red as a monkey's butt, he couldn't care less about being afraid, and his anger erupted like a volcano.
"Go up, catch him, kill the others without mercy, massacre the village, massacre the village!"
The muscles on Huang Silang's face twitched, and his eyes widened, as if they were about to burst out of their sockets. Jump out. Roaring angrily, he ordered the guards to take action at the top of his lungs, his tone full of harshness and cruelty.
However, those guard cavalry were as motionless as sculptures. Their eyes were cold and without any fluctuation, because they only obeyed military orders, and they didn't know Huang Silang.
This scene made Huang Silang feel confused and desperate. He froze in place, at a loss for a moment. However, he didn't have time to think about it, because immediately after, he felt a sharp pain, and his arm was twisted off by a huge force, making a tooth-breaking sound.
"Ah!" Huang Silang screamed in pain, his body curled up involuntarily, his face was bloodless, cold sweat and tears intertwined, sliding down his cheeks.
His body was trembling as if he was in immense pain.
Deputy Commander Harvard looked at this scene with a trace of hesitation in his eyes. Taking a deep breath, he finally made up his mind and began to issue orders, but his orders were completely different from Huang Silang's.
"Go ahead, arrest them. Try not to harm the lives of other villagers." Deputy Commander Hafer's voice was calm and firm, and his eyes shone with a complex light.
After hearing the order, the guards took action immediately, but they did not go on a rampage as Huang Silang expected, but carried out the actions in an organized and orderly manner. They had a clear goal and went straight to Liu Jun. When dealing with other villagers, they tried to use non-violent methods to avoid harming them.
The sound of "ta-da-da" echoed in the air like thunder, and the Zheng family's cavalry came like a tide. Their speed was extremely fast, like an unstoppable sharp arrow. However, what is unexpected is that they fell just as fast as lightning.
Liu Jun's figure was like a bolt of lightning piercing the sky, instantly rushing into the crowd of cavalry. His movements were swift and precise, and every movement was full of power and lethality. In less than two minutes, the charging cavalry fell to the ground one after another, groaning in pain.
Liu Jun could have killed these cavalrymen and completely defeated them, so that they would never get up again. However, when he saw that the other party did not hurt the innocent villagers, he decided to hold back slightly.
