Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 605 Wood Head
Zhao Rui's ruthlessness and disposition to regard human life as nothing is beyond ordinary people's expectations.

The game he plays is to take human life to play.

It was precisely because he saw Zhao Rui's ruthlessness that Li Xiuyuan did not secretly resolve Hao Zhao's disaster, but walked into the inn himself.

He couldn't help but make a move.

Li Xiuyuan said: "As Wang Ye said, if Pindao loses, and Pindao personally picks off these five heads and gives them to Wang Ye, then I would like to invite you to come up with a question."

"Then let's play the hunting game that this king is best at. This king remembers that there is a village nearby. This king took a bow and arrow, rode there, and shot anyone he saw. In the end, we will compare whoever kills more people will win. How? ?” Zhao Rui said.

Hao Zhao was stunned when he heard this, and he said tremblingly, "Master Dao, this man is a lunatic, don't bet with him, he is a lunatic"

"Yeah, that's a good point, but what should I do if Pindao has already agreed?"

Li Xiuyuan said helplessly, then flicked his hand casually, and a sword flew out and slashed across Hao Zhao's neck in an instant.

"Gululu" a big head rolled down from his neck.

"Huh?" Zhao Rui stood up in surprise: "What do you mean?"

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "My lord's wisdom is extraordinary, but unfortunately his heart is too vicious. How dare a poor man continue to play this game? If he wins, wouldn't the lord be going to die in a village? In order to prevent a village from being killed, the poor man had no choice but to admit defeat." Now, since Pindao admits defeat, then Pindao is willing to gamble.
lose.Don't worry, my lord, I'll send a few heads to my lord. "

After speaking, he strode over, picked up the sword and chopped it off at Hao's neck, another head rolled off.

Then he walked to Mrs. Hao and the old woman, cut off their heads one by one, and then cut off the baby's head, and then lifted the five bloody heads one by one and placed them on the table.

Looking at this scene, other people's hearts are jumping with fear, and their scalps are numb.

What a vicious Taoist, he cut off people's heads without batting an eyelid, is this still a Taoist?Wouldn't it be a change from a monster?
"My lord, these are the five heads you want." Li Xiuyuan pointed at the five heads with blood on his sword.

"Hahahaha, what a Taoist, you are more ruthless than this king." Zhao Rui laughed when he saw this.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Since the game is over, then Pindao will leave, but today Pindao feels unwilling to lose to the lord, and he will allow the pindao to play games with the lord again after a while. At that time, Pindao will definitely win the prince once."

"Really? Well, the king is waiting for you." Zhao Rui said.

Li Xiuyuan smiled without saying a word, with a bit of killing intent in his eyes.

Hao Zhao didn't dare to kill the king, he did.

This Zhao Rui's ruthlessness has surpassed that of snakes and scorpions, surpassed that of tigers and wolves. He does not know how many people he will murder if he stays in this world. How could he let such a villain go.

It's just that it's not the right time yet, he cupped his hands, turned around and left without saying a word.

Just as he walked out of the station, he disappeared into the night in a flash.

"Happy, happy, I had a lot of fun today, I'm going to bed." Zhao Rui stretched his waist while smiling, yawned with satisfaction and turned back to his room.

At this moment.

Hao Zhao felt dazed.

He clearly remembered that he was in the post station, his parents and children were caught by the dog officer, at this time a Taoist came in and wanted to make a bet with the dog officer on his behalf.

I wanted to stop it, but then I felt that my head was cut off by a sword, and then I became dizzy and couldn't remember what happened afterwards.

And now he felt the whistling wind blowing by his ears.

I also felt that my feet seemed to be stepping on the clouds and mist, without a sense of solidity, and the whole body was light and light, as if I had turned into a soul, like a ghost.

Am I already dead?

He moved his hands and feet vigorously, but found that he was holding someone's hand in his hand.

That person seemed to be his wife.
I hope to open my eyes to see what's going on, but I can't open them no matter what.

"arrive."

A voice sounded beside him, as if it belonged to the Taoist before.

Then Hao Zhao felt that his feet had landed on the ground, his body no longer seemed to be floating in the air, and his mind gradually recovered.

Opening his eyes at this moment, he found that he was already at the door of the house.

And beside him was his wife.

"Am I already dead? Now I've turned into a ghost and returned home?" Hao Zhao touched his neck, but he didn't touch the wound.

Li Xiuyuan said slowly: "You didn't die, you just pretended to die just now, just wait and see."

After speaking, he pointed at the ground, and immediately a clear spring sprang up from the ground, forming a puddle of water.

The image of the station was reflected in the stagnant water.

But there was blood dripping in the station, five corpses fell on the ground, and five heads were placed on the table, these five heads belonged to Hao Zhao's family.

"Here, what's going on here"

Hao Zhao turned pale with fright. He was startled when he saw his parents, wife and children, and his own head on top of it.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Pindao lost the bet, and I am willing to admit defeat. Naturally, I have to take off your heads and give them to this prince, but they are not real heads, but five wooden heads. They believed it was true, so this Zhao Rui thought you were all dead

I won’t bother you any more, just watch again.”

As soon as the Xuanguang technique picture changed, I saw that the five bloody heads on the table were still heads now, but they had turned into five wooden heads.

It's just that the carving of the wooden head is lifelike, the hair and facial features are like living people, and the appearance is exactly the same as that of his family.

"Your parents and children are waiting for you to go back at home. Go home. I have to leave before I finish what I have to do."

After speaking, he didn't stop, turned around and left.

Halfway through the aisle, he suddenly said: "By the way, to be on the safe side, Pindao recommends that you leave this county and live elsewhere. Pindao sees that your martial arts are extraordinary. If you join the army, you will definitely be able to rise to the top. But you must hate this court now. These palace nobles have worked for them a lot
Half of them are unwilling, but recently the Li family in Jinling City is recruiting private troops, you can go and have a look, if you don't want to, you can become a bodyguard, although it is more dangerous, but livelihood is not a problem, with your martial arts There is no danger.If anyone asks who sent you there, just say Li Xiu

Far let you go. "

After speaking, he strode into the darkness and disappeared quickly.

He and Hao Zhao had nothing to do with each other, they just drew their swords to help when they saw injustice.

If he didn't help Hao Zhao to give Hao Zhao a hope of survival, then the family might not escape the catastrophe today.

This is a matter of doing good deeds, and Li Xiuyuan will not refuse.

As for the tragedies that have already happened, there is nothing he can do to change them.

And persuade him to join the Li family's private army or bodyguard.

Li Xiuyuan purely does not want to waste his master-level martial arts. Of course, he is also a little selfish, a bit of a solicitation, but it is undeniable that the road he points to is a way to survive, whether it is joining the army or Whether it is an escort or not, it is not a problem to support a family.

Before Hao Zhao recovered from his previous surprise, he saw the Taoist leave.

He froze for a while.

At this time, the door suddenly opened, and he saw Mrs. Hao coming over with a lamp. When he saw Hao Zhao and his daughter-in-law came back, he said happily: "It's my son who is back? Just come back, just come back. During the day, the Taoist said Zhengzheng said that you will come back safely, the one who said

People are really gods and gods. They did good deeds for their father and gave the big jujube tree at home to the Taoist priest. "

"Come in quickly, what are you doing there in a daze, it's cold outside, be careful if you catch the cold."

Under Mr. Hao's urging, Hao Zhao was at a loss and led Hao into the house.

Looking at the familiar home, the old father was still there, and the old mother was awakened, and it seemed that there was a child crying in the house.

Hao Zhao's heart was like knocking over a five-flavored bottle, thousands of feelings rushed to his heart, and this thick man couldn't help but shed tears.

"Old woman, look, I'll say that Taoist priest is a god, right? Isn't my son back well? My daughter-in-law is fine." Taigong Hao stroked his beard and smiled, "This is a good reward for our family's good deeds."

Hao Zhao wiped away his tears silently, and asked about his father's affairs during the day.

My father roughly talked about the day, and then said with emotion: "That Taoist is really a kind and compassionate person. In order to save other people's family of five, he walked around the city several times. Finally, he took a fancy to the jujube tree in our house and said It was used to save people. My father felt that one jujube tree was more important than five human lives, so
If so, give it to the Taoist.Hey, that Taoist used a good spell to cut off such a big tree with a single swing of his sword. He pointed at the fallen tree and shouted a few words, guess what? "

"It actually became smaller and turned into a small sapling."

Mrs. Hao's eyebrows danced brightly, and the stars flew around while spitting: "For my father, this is the first time I have seen a living god."

Hao Zhao's heart trembled, he thought of the five beheaded wooden men in the inn, and thought of the family of five that the Taoist priest said.

The Taoist priest said that he would save five people during the day, and he was referring to his own family. Could it be that the Taoist priest has counted his own catastrophe today?

As for the jujube tree that was cut down, it should have turned into five wooden statues, which died for the five members of his family.

"Thank you, Daoist, for saving your life."

Hao Zhao came to his senses, turned around and knelt down in the direction Li Xiuyuan left, and kowtowed a few times gratefully.

"Father, parents, I won't be able to explain today's affairs clearly for a while. Parents, please pack up the clothes overnight. We will leave here as soon as the county opens tomorrow morning." After kowtowing, Hao Zhao stood up and wiped Wipe away tears and said again.

"What's the matter? What happened."

Hao Zhaodao: "The boy killed someone outside, committed a murder, can't stay here, must leave here."

Hao Taigong and his wife were shocked, and their faces turned pale.

For ordinary people, killing people is a matter of life and death.

"But, but here, where are you going with your family all this time?"

Hao Zhao said, "Go to Jinling City, where you can live, that's what the priest said."

　I wish book friends a happy new year.
