A certain person is the Heavenly Killer Li Gui.

Chapter 196
Tai'an's defenders knew that Li Gui was a fierce general, so they were very well prepared.

He doesn't have artillery and other items here, but he still has kerosene and other items.

A group of people carried bamboo tubes about ten feet long on their backs and hurried over. Before they could get into formation, they saw Li Gui on the opposite side bend slightly, jump across a distance of more than ten feet, and hit the crowd heavily. .

Li Gui grabbed it with both hands and picked up an unlucky guy each. He swung it up and blood and flesh flew out.

Everyone shouted in unison and retreated hastily, leaving a ten feet of space around Li Gui.

In this open space, there were mutilated corpses everywhere, and the ground was stained red and muddy.

The smashed bamboo tube and the kerosene inside spilled all over the floor.

"Fire arrows!"

The guarding general saw the opportunity and gave an order, and more than ten rockets were fired over. When the kerosene burned, red light began to evaporate.

The surrounding soldiers also hurriedly pointed their bamboo tubes at the figure in the flames and sprayed out the fire oil with all their strength.

But compared to the generals Shenhuo and Shengshui that Li Gui had seen before, these soldiers were too amateur, their timing was not good, and their movements were too slow.

Li Gui just jumped slightly, and before the flames came, he left the area and fell into the crowd again.

This huge formation only caught a few hairs on Li Gui's legs and was not threatening at all.

"Whoever stops me will die!"

Li Gui shouted loudly, grabbed people and threw them everywhere, just like human cannonballs, smashing the team of thousands of people into pieces.

Although they have recently undergone surprise training, these forbidden troops are only slightly better than other counties.

Now when I see Li Gui, he looks like a ghost. He shouts and wants to run away.

"Don't retreat!"

"Don't mess up!"

"He's alone!"

"If you cut him with a knife, you will be rewarded with ten taels of silver!"

The general in the distance was so anxious that he kept shouting to boost morale, but Li Gui's performance was too exaggerated. The morale of the defenders had already hit the limit, and no matter how much money was added, it was useless.

Li Guichong killed the general in command after a round of killing, and then returned.

It doesn't matter whether you fight monsters or not. The old man behind is the key NPC, so don't be killed by the random soldiers.

When he strode back, everyone around him was gone, except for the old man lying on the ground with tears streaming down his face.

Li Gui walked up to the old man, sat cross-legged on the ground, and asked with a smile:

"Old man, get up and speak. Why are you praying to someone?"

The old man raised his head, but did not get up. He was still kneeling on the ground and shouted excitedly:

"I dare not deceive the True Lord. That day, my little girl was trapped in a ghost mansion. My father and daughter prayed to all the gods and Buddhas in the gods, but only the True Lord came to save me."

"After my daughter was released from prison, my father and my daughter established the true king's status at home. They burned incense and prayed three times a day without interruption."

"Because of what happened back then, those gossipy neighbors were always talking behind their backs and pointing fingers, so the young man sold his family property, took his daughter and left Kyoto, and came to Tai'an to visit his relatives."

"The little old man had some skills and was taken care of by his relatives and friends, so he settled here. He only asked his daughter to be a widow, and he married an honest man into his wife."

"Everything was fine at first, but when my daughter went out to buy groceries, she was spotted by the nephew of the local magistrate and wanted to take her as his concubine."

"The old man refused, so he found an excuse and owed hundreds of dollars to his son-in-law. Not only did he seize the family property, he also beat his son-in-law to death and forced his daughter to pay off the debt."

"The little old man had no way to sue, but he was beaten with a stick by that dog official."

"In desperation, the little old man had no choice but to seek help from the True Lord. Fortunately, the True Lord heard about it and deigned to come to rescue him."

After finishing speaking, the old man knocked his head heavily on the ground again, crying and begging:

"Little old man, I would like to thank Zhenjun for saving this little man's life."

"Your Majesty, the little old man, I sincerely ask the True King to save my little girl one more time. This is a great kindness. In the next life, the little old man is willing to work as a cow and a horse for the True King to repay her."

Li Gui nodded slightly, completely understanding in his heart.

The Confucius Temple has been offering incense and sacrifices for thousands of years, and over time, it has the ability to receive the sincere prayers of believers.

After he smashed the saint's statue, this golden luck entered his body and brought this ability.

Originally, he was not a god and had no believers, so this thing was useless to him.

But it happened that he saved hundreds of women and children in Wuyou Cave that year, gained the gratitude of those people, and gained a number of believers.

These believers may also be praying on weekdays, but Li Gui has never heard them. One may be because they are far away, and the other may be that these people's beliefs are not pious enough.

Chinese people are all pan-believers, I will believe in anyone who is useful!
In other words, when the gods do not appear, this belief is just that.

This is also an important reason why so many temples and Taoist temples always perform some "miracles".

It works so well! Apart from miracles, people only have the most pious faith in gods and Buddhas when they are desperate and have no other way out, because that is their only possibility of salvation in the end.

After the old man was desperate, he had no choice but to ask for help from the gods and Buddhas. He chanted all the gods and Buddhas all over the sky, and finally it was the turn of Li Gui, the "Exorcist Lord"!
Of course, all the gods were busy and still ignored him, but Li Gui, the exorcist master, actually came!
what is this?
This is a "miracle"!

It was not a parallel import made by Taoist monks whose authenticity was hard to tell, but the true God who actually heard his prayers and came to save him!
How can you not worship the true God when you see him?

After listening to this, Li Gui put the last piece of the puzzle together.

"You, father and daughter, have kind thoughts in your heart and are grateful. You deserve this kind reward."

"You lead the way, and a certain family will take you to rescue people and take revenge!"

The old man struggled to get up, wiped his tears, and led the way tremblingly, with Li Gui following behind.

At this time, the city was in chaos, and there were gangsters everywhere who took the opportunity to burn, kill, and loot. I don't know how many people bumped into them blindly along the way, and they were sent to the blissful life by Li Gui.

The old man had never seen as many dead people in his life as he had seen on this day.

With Li Gui protecting him, although the old man was not in danger, he was almost frightened to death by the bloody scenes.

Before he had gone far, the old man's legs became weak and trembling, and he could not even stand up.

Li Gui had no choice but to pick him up and let him show the way.

When he reached the target, Li Gui kicked the door away and strode in.

Originally, there were dozens of armed servants guarding the courtyard behind this door, armed with swords, guns and sticks, ready to deal with possible harassment from thugs.

Unexpectedly, the door suddenly whirled and flew in, crushing through the group of people and opening up an alley of flesh and blood.

The others immediately threw away their swords and guns and disappeared quickly.

Li Gui ignored these miscellaneous fish and went straight into the backyard and the largest courtyard. He saw several men and women in gorgeous clothes surrounded by people, hugging themselves and shivering there.

Li Gui put the old man down and pointed forward, "Which one is your daughter?"

The old man's eyes widened, his neck bulged forward, and he looked carefully twice from left to right, then right to left, then shook his head in disappointment and said:

"I have never seen my little girl."

Then he pointed at the short, fat man in the middle who was dressed as a member, and cursed viciously:
"But I recognize that beast!"

"He is the nephew of the local magistrate, and my poor daughter was snatched away by him!"

As soon as he said this, the short fat man immediately recognized who he was and shouted hurriedly:

"Father-in-law, please don't misunderstand me!"

"My son-in-law is sincerely in love with his daughter and plans to marry her as his wife, not as a concubine!"

He yelled, pushed the fat woman in his arms away, then kicked her to the ground, and then headed towards the old man with a smile on his face, a nod and a bow.

The fat woman fell to the ground, and she looked back at her husband in disbelief. Then she suddenly jumped up from the ground with sadness in her heart, jumped up from behind, and grabbed the man. The short fat man knocked him down and beat him, screaming:

"You dare to hit me?"

"Ever since I was a kid, my parents never hit me!"

"You still want to divorce your wife and marry another?"

"Stop dreaming!"

"As long as I live, don't even think about divorcing your wife!"

"Look, I won't beat you to death today!"

Just as she was punching, a scream suddenly sounded in her ears, and something passed through the air. The fat woman saw her husband's head exploded into a rotten watermelon, red and white. It drenched her all over.

She was stunned for a moment, her neck seemed to be rusty, she slowly turned back, and saw Li Gui baring his teeth and smiling at her:

"I'll help you. You're welcome!"

"Ah..." The fat woman screamed, rolled her eyes, and passed out.

Li Gui pointed at the manager-looking man in the middle and shouted:
"Where is the young lady?"

The steward fell to the ground and shouted:

"The little lady was locked up in the backyard and was not harmed at all."

"Everything is done by the officials in my family, it is none of the villain's business!"

When the old man heard the news about his daughter, he hurriedly rushed to the backyard. Li Gui followed behind. When he passed by the fat woman, he stepped on her head and crushed her head to pieces.

After arriving in the backyard and rescuing the person, the father and daughter hugged each other and cried, and then came to pay their respects to the True Exorcist Li Gui.

The two men bowed sincerely in front of Li Gui, and Li Gui noticed that the golden luck in his body suddenly increased slightly.

Li Gui was so happy that he found a donkey cart in the backyard, escorted the two of them out of the city, and returned to Jeju, where he asked his men to settle in and take over Tai'an City.
