Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 601 Rescue
"Officer, you can't kill, the bitch has been humiliated, and what I want is to be relieved by death, but the parents-in-law and the youngest son in the family can't be left alone. Go, go, leave me alone, you You can't risk the lives of the whole family for the cheap."

While crying bitterly, Hao slapped and pushed Hao Zhao away, hoping that her man would run away quickly, and don't try to have fun for a while and harm the whole family, all relatives and friends.

Hao Zhao, a somewhat naive guy, was turning blue at the moment, his expression was changing, and he wanted to violently kill this Zhao Rui, but whenever he wanted to raise his knife to kill someone, his heart trembled incomparably.

Reason told him that this person could not be killed.

A serious relative of the emperor, the younger brother of Zhao Guan's family in the current dynasty, and the king of Yue in the Song Dynasty.

And Zhao Rui's words are correct, killing him is tantamount to rebellion, and he will definitely be punished by the nine clans, not to mention him as a down-and-out soldier, even a high-level court official, even a first-rank court official can't bear this killing The charge of a prince.

While arranging his clothes, Zhao Rui touched the blood on his neck. Although it was excruciatingly painful, he didn't feel it. Instead, a crazy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Hey, Hao Zhao, why don't you make a move? This king is right in front of you, but you don't want to run away, and your wife is very charming just now. Do you want to know how she served my lord before? Haha, You, a pariah, must not be able to imagine it, so why don't I tell you about it."

He kept stimulating Hao Zhao.

He even walked up to him and slapped him on the face arrogantly: "You trash, so what about your martial arts skills? So what if you can fight a hundred with one? Your wife has been played by this king, and you dare not do it for me?" Your wife took revenge?"

Hao Zhao was trembling all over, and the anger in his heart was about to overwhelm his reason, but for some reason, he still couldn't lift the notched waist knife in his hand.

The wife cried and shouted aside, pushing herself away.

The parents and the youngest son at home are still waiting for him to go back, and he really lost everything after this knife.

On the one hand, there is the revenge of the wife being insulted, and on the other hand, the life safety of the parents and young children.

Two extremely heavy things weighed on his heart, suppressing the killing intent in his heart.

"Ah~!"

Hao Zhao's eyes were red, and he roared up to the sky, his voice was like a lion tiger, straight into the sky, shaking the eardrums of the people around him, the roof rustled, and the dust kept falling.

He gripped the handle of the knife tightly in his hand and swung it suddenly.

A pillar as thick as a person was chopped into two pieces with a single knife.

"You dog official and villain, you will definitely die in the future. I don't kill you because I can't kill you. It's because your life is not worth the lives of my parents and wife."

Hao Zhao was forced like crazy, roared, and hit the prince's chest with the blade of the knife, directly bounced it out, smashed the stairs behind him, and buried him in the ruins.

"My lord."

Mr. Liu and the other guards were shocked and hurried up to rescue.

Hao Zhao took this opportunity to set up his wife and strode away, even with a person, the guards who greeted him were not his all-in-one enemy.

A martial arts master has the reputation of being an enemy of a thousand people, and if he wants to leave, it is almost impossible to stay.

"Cough cough."

Among the piles of wooden boards, Zhao Rui was helped up by the guards. He vomited blood, his clothes were torn, and he was in a state of distress. But he didn't feel afraid, instead he grinned loudly. His bloody mouth was like a murderous ghost. , makes people shudder.

"Go? You drive away? Don't forget that assassinating this king is also a capital crime. Your name is Hao Zhao, and your wife is Hao Shi? As long as you dare to leave this inn, this king will go to the capital and issue an arrest warrant to the six gates to arrest your family. Little, let you copy and chop all over the house."

Zhao Rui pushed away the guard next to him, and walked over holding his chest: "Ahem, the surname is Zhao in this world. This king wants you low-lifes to die. Who in the world can save you?"

Hao Zhao, who had just broken out of the siege and was about to leave, froze at this moment and froze in place.

He turned around and roared angrily, "What on earth do you want, you dog officer, to let us go?"

Zhao Rui wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth: "Hao Zhao, you cut my neck, I don't have to blame you, you hurt my chest, I don't have to blame you, but if you want to If you leave like this, this king will kill your whole family."

After speaking, a fierce look appeared in his eyes.

"Do you want this king to let you go? Yes, first kneel down and kowtow to this king to show your sincerity. Maybe this king will pardon your crimes as soon as he is happy, so he won't confiscate your family and exterminate your family."

Hao Zhao turned his head and glared, his lips moved. He wanted to say something in his heart, but he couldn't say it.

Killing is not the case, he dare not kill Zhao Rui, and he can't bear the consequences.

It's not like leaving, Zhao Rui ordered him to be wanted after leaving, although the world is big, where can he go with his family and his mouth?

"Will you let me go if I kowtow to you?" Hao Zhao gritted his teeth, his face flushed.

"This is at least an opportunity. If you run away with your wife without kowtow, I can assure you that your family will surely die." Zhao Rui said coldly.

Without saying a word, Hao Zhao immediately put down his wife and knelt down on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed three times to Zhao Rui.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The hard ground was knocked loudly.

"Is it okay now?" Hao Zhao lowered his head and gritted his teeth.

Zhao Rui showed a smile, and he sat down with the support of the guards: "Yes, I'm in a better mood, but it's not enough, let's knock again."

"Bump."

Hao Zhao kowtowed ten more times.

"Not enough, knock again." Zhao Rui took the wet towel handed over to wipe the blood from his mouth, and looked at Hao Zhao who was kneeling and kowtowing with a sneer.

Hao Zhao gritted his teeth and continued to kowtow.

Zhao Rui recruited another person, and whispered in his ear: "Go to the county and arrest his whole family. I want to have fun with this person. You have to move quickly. I will give you a stick of incense time. I will reward you for doing it." You are a hundred gold, and you can't cut off your legs."

The guard's expression froze, he punched him, and immediately turned around and left in response.

He deeply understood the prince's temperament, if he couldn't do it himself, it would not be as simple as chopping off his legs.

"Drive~!"

Hao Zhao, who kowtowed, didn't pay attention to the movement nearby. With a shout, a fast horse galloped along the official road and returned to the county where it passed before.

But this scene cannot be hidden from Li Xiuyuan's eyes.

He stood on the mound outside the station, with a golden light shining in his eyes.

Watching this happen all the time.

He didn't stop.

Because he couldn't find a reason to stop it.

Is it Hao Zhao who is bloodthirsty?
No, it was the King of Yue, Zhao Rui, who robbed the victim's wife and attracted others to kill him.

Is it to stop Zhao Rui?

He has the status of a relative of the emperor and was named a prince. If he is determined to kill the Hao Zhao family, the Hao Zhao family will undoubtedly die.

If this knot cannot be untied, saving lives is tantamount to killing people.

Li Xiuyuan fell into silence at the moment, he was thinking what would he do if he encountered this situation?
It is estimated that the king has been killed and rebelled, because he has the capital and ability to rebel.

But Hao Zhao can't do it. Although he has superb martial arts skills, he has a low status. He is just a military family. There are old and young in the family.

I can't bear the charge of killing the king.

For the sake of his family, he compromised. This martial arts master, known as the enemy of thousands, actually knelt and kowtowed in front of Zhao Rui, who insulted his wife.

Li Xiuyuan saw him kowtow while clenching his teeth, the gums were bleeding from the bite, tears streaming down unstoppably.

He is crying.

Could it be that he couldn't bear such humiliation and cried in grief and anger, or that the struggle and suffering in his heart had exceeded his ability to bear, and the tears couldn't stop flowing down.

He kowtowed at the door.

Li Xiuyuan watched quietly outside.

When he saw the fast horse galloping towards the county seat, he understood that it was Zhao Rui who was attacking Hao Zhao's family.

"This matter is a troublesome matter, but since I have encountered it, how can I ignore it because of Zhao Rui's identity? Well, since there is no one in this world to help you, if I encounter it today, then I, Li Xiuyuan Here to help you." Li Xiuyuan took a deep look at Zhao Rui, and then the two

Without saying a word, he turned and left.

He was going to protect Hao Zhao's family first.

When he cast a spell, he could reach the county seat much faster than the guard.

"Teng Yun~!"

A gust of wind blew up, and Li Xiuyuan soared into the air and flew directly across the mountains and fields to the county seat.

The nearby county, named Li County, is just an ordinary small county in the Song Dynasty. It is not as prosperous as Guobei County, but it has a somewhat bleak taste. Obviously, the lives of the people here are not very good. .

Hao's house.

In the west of the Patriarch's county seat, in an old private house.

Although the house is old, it is kept neat and clean. It can be seen that the women in this family are diligent and virtuous, and they are not lazy people.

Although it is dusk.

An old man and an old woman sat at the door with worried expressions on their faces.

"Why hasn't my son come back yet? Didn't he go looking for a wife? Why did he go for so long? I heard others say that my daughter-in-law was kidnapped and beaten by a group of strong men. I don't know if it's true or not. There will be no harm when I go out this time. What's going on and what's wrong?" The old woman looked anxiously while muttering.
outside the house.

It seemed that they were waiting for Hao Zhao at the corner to come back with his daughter-in-law as usual.

"What's the matter, my son's martial arts are great, how many strong men are you afraid of? Hmph, women just don't know much." Grandpa Hao snorted heavily as he sat there. Although he seemed not concerned, his brows were already deep. wrinkled.

But just when they were worried and looking forward.

Suddenly, at the corner of the street, a Taoist priest in Taoist robe suddenly strode forward.

"Oh, I thought it was the child who came back, but I didn't expect it to be a priest." The old woman sighed again.

The two elders saw the Taoist approaching with strides, but when they got in front of them, they clasped their hands and asked, "You two old people are well."

"Hello, Daoist."

Mrs. Hao was a little surprised, and hurriedly stood up and gave a salute.

Li Xiuyuan pondered for a while and said: "I have seen two old people, Pingdao Tengyunzi, traveling around, encountered a difficult thing today, just now Pedao met five people along the way, among these five people, there is a pair of old people, one Baby, there is a loving couple, they were originally a happy family,

It's a pity that when the catastrophe comes, the house will be ransacked and the mouth will be wiped out. I can't bear it, so I want to cast a spell to save me, but there is one thing missing, so I can't wait, so I have been wandering around in the county. When I was in the mouth, I saw a jujube tree in your home, which was 50 years old.

The tree is old, and this is exactly what Pindao desperately hopes to save lives. "

"I just don't know if the two old people are willing to donate the jujube tree in the courtyard to Pindao, so that Pindao can cut it down and use it to save people?"

The old woman couldn't help but said immediately: "Master Daoist, that jujube tree is the only valuable thing in my house. It can bear a lot of dates every year, and it sells for a lot of money. How can I just give it to Daoist Master like this."

Li Xiuyuan said: "Isn't five lives worth a jujube tree? If the old man is willing to give alms, he will definitely be rewarded."

"Who knows if you, a Taoist, plotted against my jujube tree, or really used it to save people? I have never heard that jujube trees can save people." The old woman pouted.

Li Xiuyuan said calmly: "The poor Taoist is a practitioner, how can he be greedy for worldly money, let alone use this crude lie to deceive the little money left by the two old people's family."

"That's not going to work. The jujube tree sells for a lot of money every year, so we can't just cut it down like this." The old woman still said.

However, Taigong Hao, who was next to him, scolded: "What do women know? The Taoist priest used the jujube trees in our house to save people. Why did he treat the Taoist priest as a liar? This Taoist priest, I am really sorry. My wife has no knowledge and can't say anything decent, so please don't get angry

, if the Taoist priest really used the jujube tree to save people, just take it away, it is worthwhile for a worthless tree to save five lives. "

"Who said that, it's clearly worth a lot of money." The old woman muttered.

Hao Taigong glared and said: "Don't talk about it, I planted this jujube tree back then, can't it be cut down today? Even if the Taoist priest uses it to save people, I am the master of this family."

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "Gaoyi, the grandpa, your kindness will definitely be rewarded. Since the grandpa has agreed, Pindao will cut down this jujube tree."

"Does the Taoist priest need help? My son has a lot of strength, and he can cut down the tree with a few strokes. It's a pity that he didn't come back after going out today. If the Taoist priest is not in a hurry, he can wait." Hao Taigong said.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Is that so? As a reward, I'll find the grandpa's son, but we have to wait for the poor man to cut down the tree first."

After speaking, he went straight into the yard.

With a movement of his palm, he took out a sharp sword.

This is Tai'a sword.

"It's really a living god." Seeing this Taoist conjuring a sword out of thin air, Taigong Hao opened his eyes wide, very surprised.

The old woman next to her was also stunned, her lips trembled, and she became a little afraid.

With such spells, this Taoist would definitely not be a liar.

"Okay, okay, the Taoist priest is a really good man, even if this tree is cut down, I just ask the Taoist priest to be careful not to damage my house when cutting the tree." Hao Taigong said.

"Don't worry, Grandpa, the poor have their own measure." Li Xiuyuan said.

After speaking, he raised the sword in his hand and just slashed.

It was as if a golden light flashed by, shining in front of my eyes.

Immediately, the tall jujube tree fell to the ground.

"Fall down, fall down, Taoist priest, be careful, and avoid it quickly." Taigong Hao shouted in shock.

"Don't avoid it, wait for the poor to accept it."
