Chapter 90: Imprisonment
This group of water gang members sent to sneak into the county and responsible for attacking and killing Song Changming are all extremely powerful.
As for the person flying in front of me, I am afraid that his marrow cleansing skill has reached the fourth realm or above, and his body lightening skill is even more impressive.
The superposition of the two phases revealed this extreme speed.
The opponent came to kill him and slashed him head-on with his sword, the light of the sword was dazzling.
Song Changming also suddenly drew his sword at this moment and slashed from bottom to top.
clang!
The blades met, and the opponent's face turned red and then receded.
The power attached to Song Changming's sword was simply beyond what he could resist.
If he had not given up his strength and retreated just now, his right arm holding the knife might have been broken on the spot.
The power of the five bulls, using their superb sword skills to exert their power, the destructive power unleashed is absolutely astonishing.
If Song Changming was holding a heavy dragon-patterned knife tonight, the lethality of this knife would only be even greater!
"Watch out! Him!"
Just as he was about to open his mouth to remind his companions, Song Changming was already using the Light Body Skill, and the blade was pointed directly at him.
Song Changming's burst of speed was also extremely amazing, even slightly faster than this person!
His Marrow Cleansing Technique has reached the third level, and more importantly, he has mastered the expanded Super Light Body Technique, which gives him faster speed.
Compared to the other party, he was more like a light goose, flying close to the ground!
The man didn't have time to step away and met Song Changming's dark and cold eyes.
Their eyes met, and the long knife swept over, blowing up a whirlwind of charming eyes.
After only three sword fights, this person was already beyond his capabilities and his body was open to flaws.
"Oops!" He was panicking. Before he could call for help, Song Changming's long knife had already penetrated his heart.
The long knife was drawn out, and Song Changming floated past him.
The man was frozen in place, his breath rapidly fading, and he fell to the ground dead without even realizing what had just happened.
Song Changming's long knife was stained with blood, and he kept walking towards the nearest person.
This person had the strength of the Fourth Realm of Bone Forging and was holding a nine-ring machete. He wanted to use the sword skills of opening and closing, but Song Changming slipped his foot and easily dodged it by turning sideways.
Since the ultra-level light body skill is so difficult to practice on the panel, it naturally has its meaning.
It’s just too subtle that makes it difficult to practice!
Whether it’s the burst of speed it’s given, or the dodge and maneuver skills in combat, it’s the ultimate display of results after being mastered.
It allows Song Changming to easily suppress his opponent with his body and skills when competing!
When Song Changming passed by this person, there were already three more cuts in front of him, and blood spurted out like pillars.
At the same time, Song Changming broke through the opponent's encirclement so easily.
Now Song Changming can actually withdraw and retreat. The ambush set up by this group of people here has failed.
But now, Song Changming is not ready to let them go.
In the bamboo forest, the killings continued.
With Song Changming's current strength, these warriors at the fourth level of body refining, even if they were twisted into a rope and shoulder to shoulder, would not be enough for Song Changming to kill them alone.
Only one of them, a fifth-level body-refining martial artist, seemed to be another leader of the Dinghaihai Gang, and he was pretty good.
After confronting Song Changming for twenty or thirty rounds, he was severely injured and fell to the ground by Song Changming's Feiyan style sword skill.
After about a quarter of an hour, the wind stopped and the bamboo forest returned to calm.
All the ambushers from the Dinghaihai Gang fell to the ground without making a sound. Only the leader was still seriously injured and still had half a life left.
Song Changming knelt down in front of him, wiping the almost completely red blade in his hand with his clothes while asking indirect questions.
Although the other party was not very cooperative, Song Changming could basically confirm that this group of people really did not come for the treasure map.
After wiping his sword and putting it into its sheath, he casually picked up the long knife that someone had dropped beside him, nailed it directly to his heart, and sent him on his way.
Returning to his residence, he looked at the house and yard which were relatively intact except for a few footprints on the wall.
Fortunately, this group of people had some quality and didn't destroy his family first.
The purpose of this group of people was also very clear, they came only to kill him.
If it was for the treasure map, I'm afraid his house would have been turned over long ago.
Early the next morning, Song Changming sent out patrols to dispose of the corpses.
The inter-city patrol divisions have an additional task: searching for other Dinghaihai gang members who may have sneaked into the city.
At present, these Dinghai Gang are a thorn in the side of the county governor, and there is no possibility of letting them go.
Later, after the ambush failed and a group of martial arts masters were killed, the Dinghaihai Gang seemed to have settled down.
Realizing that continuing to pester Song Changming would only make their losses greater.
They no longer set foot in Donglai County, at least now they have no way to intervene.
Except for the Dinghai Gang, there has been no movement at the Jinque Sect, which Song Changming is more concerned about.
The main site of Jinque Gate itself is not in the Donglai County area. Several disciples died in Donglai County City, and they seemed not to care at all.
Not surprisingly, the treasure map on the Jinque sect's body was also kept privately. Neither party informed the forces behind it, and both wanted to make a fortune in silence, but both ended up losing their lives.
If you think about it carefully, this is normal. Once you inform the forces behind it, whether it is the treasure map or the martial art, it will have nothing to do with you.
Even if Song Changming got this treasure map that was delivered to his door, he still didn't tell the second person, including the government forces behind him.
In this way, the situation was much better than Song Changming expected, saving a lot of trouble.
As autumn enters, the weather gradually turns cooler, and there are many yellowing leaves on the ground, making it look a bit desolate.
No news could be sealed forever, and some rumors finally came out from the supreme palace.
The Holy One is ill today!
After the news spread, all kinds of comments were made, and people everywhere were agitated.
Song Changming had already known about the matter due to Gu Wenhui's advance spoiler, so when the rumor spread to Donglai County, he was not too surprised.
This can only prove that what Gu Wenhui said that night was not drunken nonsense, but had some basis.
"In this way, the countdown to these peaceful days will finally begin."
In Huamanlou, Zhou Sixin, Song Changming and Liang Chuanshan, whom they had not seen for a while, were together again.
After hearing what Zhou Sixin said, Liang Chuanshan was convinced.
They also have a good understanding of the history of the Dahan Dynasty since ancient times.
Every generation of emperors has to fight for it!
This time, if the old emperor fails to survive, the next step will be a fight for the throne.
"But the imperial capital court is thousands of miles away from us in Donglai County, so it probably won't affect us." Liang Chuanshan drank the wine in his glass and said.
"That's not necessarily the case." Zhou Sixin shook his head and looked at Song Changming.
Song Changming put the fat and thin slices of meat into his mouth, took another sip of wine and said, "Brother Liang, you know, our county guard started hoarding private soldiers and armaments a few years ago.
You reminded me of this.
Now that the news about the Holy Lord has spread, do you think our county governor is involved in it? "
Liang Chuanshan nodded, sighed, and gave up the idea of luck.
Those ambitious people in the world wish that the world would become more chaotic, so that they could take advantage of it.
People like Liang Chuanshan who long for stability hope that this storm will be as small as possible and end as soon as possible.
I don’t want my life to be affected by turbulence right now.
September.
Something happened to Xiao Hongyang, the eldest son of Xiao who was an official in the court.
Because of one mishandling, he committed several crimes and was imprisoned!
After that, Xiao Yanli, the third son of the Xiao family, fled in the imperial capital in fear of crime and disappeared without a trace. His crime was aggravated.
When the news came back to Donglai County, the head of the Xiao family and the governor of Donglai County was so angry that he vomited blood and almost fainted.
In just one day, the Xiao family in Donglai County, which was originally at its peak, immediately became turbulent.
There is a thick layer of clouds covering my head, and my future is uncertain.
That night, Xie Shihuan and other close officials of the county governor went to Xiao Mansion overnight to discuss the matter.
When Xie Shihuan saw Xiao Jingchuan again, he was shocked.
"Sir, what are you doing?"
The head of the Xiao family, who was still high-spirited yesterday, is now sitting on a chair with a gloomy face and dull eyes, as if he has aged more than ten years overnight.
"Something happened to Yang'er." Xiao Jingchuan took a deep breath and said rather feebly.
"The eldest son is now an official in the court. What happened?" County Cheng Ji Xuechang was actually vaguely aware of something, but she didn't dare to think deeply.
Xiao Jingchuan told the news he had just received, and then said bitterly: "He must have been harmed by that traitor. Yang'er acted steadily and had a conservative style, how could he act recklessly at this juncture!"
From his point of view, this must be someone specifically dealing with his Xiao family!
"Then can you ask the third prince for help, find out the truth, and clear the eldest son's innocence!" Xie Shihuan said immediately.
Everyone knew that something happened to Xiao Hongyang in the court, which was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the Xiao family.
If it can be rescued, we must do our best to save it.
"I have already ordered someone to bring my autographed letter to the Third Prince, but this matter is probably a foregone conclusion. If the Third Prince wants to be saved, he should have been saved long ago. I have delayed it until now because I probably don't want to get involved in this matter."
Jamel Xiao slapped the armrest of the chair and said with hatred.
"This" a group of staff officials looked at each other.
If the three princes don't help, then Xiao Hongyang, who is far away in prison in the imperial capital, is probably doomed.
For a while, they couldn't think of any other countermeasures.
Gu Wenhui, who was standing on the outermost side of the crowd, looked calmly at the anxious crowd, his hands hanging down without saying a word.
