Ninth Grade Jailer: He actually went on a blind date with the leader of the Demon Cult at the beginn

The moon hangs on the treetops.

The apricot tree bloomed with silver flowers dyed with moon halo.

Not long after Li Nuo left, the executioner village chief came back and asked Po Wang, who was standing under the tree admiring the moon: What did Mr. Zheng say?

Third brother, are you worried about him?

Wang Po grinned.

But her slightly sickly pale cheeks paired with such a smile looked very scary in the moonlight.

Fortunately, the village chief is no longer surprised.

Mrs. Wang did not get the nickname Ghost Sees Sorrow for nothing.

He nodded and said: Be careful when sailing the ship that lasts ten thousand years.

He had survived the strong winds and waves, but he didn't want to capsize in the final ditch.

Mrs. Wang seemed to be fascinated by Li Nuo's demeanor and spoke kind words for him: The third brother must be worrying too much. We just chatted casually for a while. In my opinion, this Mr. Zheng is also a good family man. As for my son, I told him a lot about my experience in raising children, and he took the trouble to listen to it.

In your opinion, he is also a kind and righteous person?

the village chief asked.

Wang Po nodded: As long as Miss Ji Yao and the child are mentioned, his eyes will soften. My eyes rarely see the wrong person.

Did you use the ghost eye technique?

The village chief said in surprise.

A confident smile emerged from the wrinkles on Wang Po's face: Although using it once will cost one year of life, it is related to our happiness for the rest of our lives. It is enough to use it once on Mr. Zheng, so it doesn't matter.

After taking a look at Mrs. Wang's aging face, the village chief sighed, Thank you for your hard work. From the looks of it, we will definitely succeed!

At this time, the scholar strode over, frowning, and said anxiously: Third brother, news just came from the county that a court army was passing by, numbering about three thousand people.

Imperial army? Do you know their purpose?

The village chief's heart skipped a beat.

Are you here to catch them? But this concern was soon dispelled.

They have strict military discipline and only camp outside the county town. The county magistrate actually came forward in person, but he was kicked out without even entering the military camp.

The scholar said gloomily.

Mrs. Wang was a little panicked: They are not here to destroy us, are they?

The village chief shook his head and said: It should not happen. First, in the past twenty years, we have disguised ourselves very well and our identities have not been exposed. Second, if they really want to destroy us, they will definitely attack us with lightning speed. Why would you camp outside the county if you were not prepared? Brother Liu, you have a smart mind, what do you think?

The scholar thought for a while, suddenly thought of something, and said in surprise: Third brother, do you think they are going to Tianjian Mountain?

Mrs. Wang hurriedly asked: Old Chen, what are they doing in Tianjian Mountain? Who dares to provoke those sword cultivators?

Don't forget, Tianjian Mountain has been very busy recently!

The scholar sneered and said, There are many sword cultivators gathered in the mountain now. I heard that the wedding of the disciple of Tianjian Pavilion was forcibly ruined. Once this happens, it will be terrible. The imperial court must have also learned about this and sent a large army. Maintain order, or declare the majesty of the imperial court, so that Tianjian Mountain will try not to affect the mortal world.

No one wants to think about the worst, so Xiucai found a reason to convince himself.

Only in this way will the heart be at peace.

The village chief narrowed his eyes and said, Sixth brother is right. If the imperial court really wants to come to annihilate us, it must send an army of more than 10,000 people, not just 3,000 people. This is not enough for us to kill. But no matter what, we have to be careful and send people to keep an eye on it.

Third brother, don't worry. I have sent someone to contact Magistrate Zhang and asked him to keep an eye on every move in the military camp. If there is any trouble, report it immediately.

The scholar stroked his beard, looking like he knew everything.

Sixth brother, I can rest assured that I can do this. Come, let's have a good drink today.

The village chief smiled and threw a small jar of strong wine to the scholar.

It’s the famous [Immortal Drunk]!

The scholar opened the lid of the altar, and a strong aroma of wine instantly filled the air.

Before the wine enters the mouth, one is already intoxicated.

The scholar was a good drinker, so he immediately raised his neck and took a big sip.

Ahem...

It is indeed the strongest liquor in the world!

The scholar didn't pay attention for a moment and coughed.

He wiped his mouth with his sleeve and said overjoyed: Third brother, where did you get [Immortal Drunk]? This wine is so rare!

The village chief smiled and said: Have you forgotten the caravan that went to the Sixteen Kingdoms of the Western Region more than a month ago? It was looted by the blacksmith's team. This [Immortal Drunken], hehe, there are fifty altars!

I remembered that I didn't go there that day because I had something to do. It seemed to be a foggy day. I heard the blacksmith came back and said that the caravan was led by a young man from a noble family who was very ambitious. He actually broke away from the caravan for the sake of the trip. It happened to be cheap. killed us.

The scholar took another sip of Immortal Drunk and praised him from the bottom of his heart, Third brother is too bad. He hid such a good wine and didn't tell me.

This is what men drink!

Although the apricot blossom wine they brewed is good, it is too mild in nature. It is not bad if you drink it occasionally, but you will feel tired if you drink it every day.

You always get drunk and get into trouble. Third brother is right not to tell you! Mrs. Wang said happily, Today, third brother saw that you were reliable in your work, so I rewarded you.

Go, go, men are drinking, you woman, stop mixing in, and hurry up and get us some food to go with the wine.

The scholar was angry.

Just when these three people thought that the situation was determined, in front of the gate of the military camp ten miles outside the county town, Magistrate Zhang was frightened and angry!

He didn't expect these big-headed soldiers to be so courageous!

Captain Chen held the cold knife in his hand and said with a cold smile: Master Zhang, please.

Magistrate Zhang pointed at Captain Chen angrily and said angrily: Captain Chen, I am an official of the imperial court, a serious seventh-grade county magistrate! Even if I break the law, I will be handed over to the Criminal Department for interrogation. Before I am still wearing this black gauze hat, if you arrest me, it will be tantamount to rebellion!

Magistrate Zhang pointed to the black gauze hat on his head again.

As expected of a civil servant who came from the imperial examination, his eloquence is really impressive. However, my lieutenant came here under the orders of Duke Wu An and Marshal Zhengnan to arrest Mr. Zhang who secretly colluded with the wanted criminals. Duke Wu An also said that if you dare to resist , executed on the spot!”

kill!

kill!

kill!

The thirty soldiers under Captain Chen who were wearing scale armor and holding sabers slammed the handles of their long swords onto the ground, their murderous intent spreading!

They are all iron-blooded warriors who participated in the Chang'an defense battle. They are Princess Qingyang's personal soldiers. Their belief is the invincible Duke Wu'an!

The powerful murderous intent made Zhang Zhixian feel frightened and couldn't help but take a few steps back.

He is at the [Seventh Level of Literary Dao] and has practiced fighting and fighting for decades. If he really wants to fight hard, he can actually fight his way out.

But the road after that will also become a dead end.

Because this means that he is completely on the opposite side of Li Nuo.

And Li Nuo's character... is well known to all. No one who is cared about by this master will have an easy time.

So at this moment, he could only give in.

As for the arrogance and arrogance of the literati?

In front of Li Zian, the God of Killing, it is not worth much money.

Master Zhang, it is not the behavior of a gentleman to be stubborn. Seeing that Zhang Zhixian had lost his will to resist, Captain Chen said, Tell me everything about Anning Village, and maybe you can save your life. Otherwise, you can survive. , Duke Wu An’s knife will definitely cut off your head! And there will definitely be no one in the court who will intercede for you.

Zhang Zhixian had nowhere to confide the panic in his heart.

He felt deeply powerless when he thought of Li Nuo's Shang Fang Sword which could kill corrupt officials and sycophants at every turn.

Even so many big shots in the imperial court have suffered losses from Li Zian. Why doesn't he, a small county magistrate, just pick up his tail and become a man?

Forget it, I will tell you everything I know. I just hope that Mr. Wu An will allow me to retire and return to my hometown.

Zhang Zhixian sighed.

Please enter the military camp and have a talk...

Lieutenant Chen invited Zhang Zhixian to the tent in the military camp.

After Zhang Zhixian took his seat, he recalled, This matter started fifteen years ago when my daughter-in-law had a difficult delivery...

Next to him, the secretary immediately picked up a pen and wrote down the words without leaving the floor.

In fact, the crimes committed by Zhang Zhixian may be said to be light, but they may be said to be serious.

Mrs. Wang used it as a bridge, but he was unknowingly corrupted by the sugar-coated bullets from Anning Village.

But he didn't know that these three people were the three most evil people in the Valley of Evil, and they were also wanted criminals by the court. Otherwise, given his ten courages, he wouldn't have dared to protect these people.

Lieutenant Chen carefully checked the signed and sealed case files and said with satisfaction: Gong Wu An sent us here to catch all these thieves. Mr. Zhang, if you cooperate well and make meritorious deeds, Mr. Wu An will take care of you. For the sake of being an official, I might be a bit lenient with you.

I am willing to cooperate.

In order to save his life, Zhang Zhixian had no choice but to sell Anning Village.

I regret it.

He violated Wen Xin!

Fortunately, I suddenly woke up at the last moment and was finally able to make up for it a little bit.

…

That night.

The moon is dim and the stars are sparse.

People kept silent, horses held grass in their mouths, and under the cover of night, three thousand soldiers surrounded Anning Village.

It's strange, my heart is beating a little too hard, I always feel like there's something a little strange tonight...

The three of them drank until late at night. The village chief was already in a hazy and drunken state. He couldn't help but shiver when the night wind blew, and his heartbeat accelerated a bit.

Logically speaking, as a fourth-grade martial artist, he would not be afraid of any wind or cold even if he went into battle shirtless on a snowy day.

But now, why do I feel the slightest chill?

The scholar smiled and comforted: Third brother, you drank two whole jars of [Immortal Drunk], and the blood in your body will naturally surge faster. You don't need to be nervous. Didn't Zhang Zhi County send someone to come before? Those three thousand sergeants , I will leave for Tianjian Mountain early tomorrow morning. I also said that we will go directly around ten miles away from our Anning Village.

Mrs. Wang said with drunken eyes: Hiccup... Third brother, Zhang Zhixian is also in the same boat as us, so you can rest assured.

The village chief rubbed his temples: Well, maybe I'm too preoccupied. Come on, let's continue drinking!

Okay! I'll toast three more glasses!

The scholar held up the wine glass proudly.

He was so happy when he thought that the plan he had been planning for twenty years would be successful tomorrow!

And this drinking session ended late at night. And these three people were also drunk and unconscious, and they all fell asleep on the stone table.

I don’t know how much time passed.

There was a faint noise in my ears.

Immediately afterwards.

An extremely miserable and desperate cry pierced the tranquility of the night.

The sky is filled with murderous intent!

The three of them were mostly sober in an instant.

Father, mother, third uncle, it's not good! The imperial army is coming!

Chen Ergou, disheveled, ran over in a hurry, with a look of horror on his face.

And behind him, a sharp arrow flew towards him!

The scholar is in a hurry.

This is his only son.

He hurriedly used [Liber, Spear, and Sword] to chop down the sharp arrow.

Son, are you okay?

Mrs. Wang quickly stepped forward to help Chen Ergou, who was stumbling.

Woooooooo, it's over, everything is over! We are surrounded by a large army. Uncle Blacksmith and the others were defeated and suffered heavy casualties.

Chen Ergou burst into tears.

Didn't you say that the imperial army's target is Tianjian Mountain? Zhang Zhixian, you mistook me!

The village chief was extremely angry. He hurriedly activated his inner energy and let go of his senses, and then his whole body trembled!

The thief named Zhang lied about the military situation. I am at odds with you!

The village chief gritted his teeth and said, Sixth brother, seventh sister, don't hesitate, run away quickly! Leave the green hills behind and don't have to worry about having no firewood!

After all, he is a figure who has been in the world for decades, and he can be regarded as decisive.

only.

It's too late to escape now.

They forgot that Li Nuo existed.

Want to run? Is it too late?

Li Nuo and the pretty girl walked slowly in the dark night.

Chen Xiaowei and Wang Liuzi were like guardians, following closely with swords in their hands.

Mr. Zheng, I have no enmity with you, why do you want to harm us?

The village chief still didn't understand.

Everything is fine and according to his plan. But why did this day change overnight?

This change was too big for him to adapt to.

Take a closer look at who I am.

Li Nuo rubbed his face, and the disguise on his face was broken.

The three village chiefs looked at each other, but they were still confused.

After all, Li Nuo has a great reputation, but not many people have actually seen him. What's more, these people are far away in the southwest.

Moreover, when Li Nuo traveled around the world and became the leader of the martial arts alliance, he still appeared as Li Xunhuan.

Lieutenant Chen said coldly: This is Duke Wu An of the current dynasty!

You, you, are you the Crown Prince and Grand Master Li Zian?

The village chief was trembling all over and couldn't believe it.

Li Zian, if you don't go to southern Xinjiang to quell the rebellion, why would you come to his Anning Village?

This is really unprofessional!

Executioner, Gui Jianchou, and Xiucai Gong, the three evil men, people are doing it, but God is watching! Sixteen years ago, you set fire to the village and killed the entire Zheng family. Sixteen years later, this retribution will come!

Li Nuo's eyes burst with murderous intent.

ah!

Chen Ergou was of low cultivation and was already frightened out of his wits. How could he resist the murderous intention? He immediately started to bleed from his orifices and died in a heart-rending scream.

Ah! If you dare to kill my son, I will fight with you!

When Mrs. Wang saw her son being killed, she didn't care. A ghostly aura surged, and she turned into a red-clothed ghost, opened her big mouth, and wanted to swallow Li Nuo in one gulp!

How dare a humble ghost to be so rampant?

Although the ghost magic power is very weird, Mrs. Wang is only at the [Fifth Grade Ghost Realm], which is really not enough in front of Li Nuo.

Li Nuo drew out the [Buddha Sword] and slashed at will.

The Buddhist sound explodes!

The natal devil attached to Mrs. Wang's body immediately turned into a wisp of smoke.

Screams sounded.

Mrs. Wang fell to the ground, and was even more attacked by the ghost energy. Her whole face was corroded, and she was half flesh and half skull, which was shocking.

After bouncing a few more times, she ran out of energy and stopped moving.

Lady!

Seventh sister!

The executioner and the scholar screamed in despair.

Should we just surrender, or should I personally send you on your way?

Li Nuo glanced at the remaining two people coldly.

The executioner smiled sadly: Mr. Wu An, I have no enmity or enmity with you, please let me go!

The scholar's face was full of horror: We have Zheng's jade pendant. As long as Wu An lets us go, we will give this jade pendant with both hands. Otherwise...

Li Nuo raised his eyebrows: Threaten me?

Don't dare. The Zheng family's treasure is enough to buy half of the Central Plains. If Wu An has it, it will be no problem to recruit troops. It is even possible for the Central Plains to change ownership.

The scholar shook his head hastily.

For the current plan, only by getting Li Zian interested in the treasure can they have a chance of survival.

It won't help if you let your tongue bloom golden lotus. Your next road is already destined, and that is the road to hell!

Li Nuo turned to Qiluo and said, These three are the leaders of the horse bandits who set fire to the village sixteen years ago. Your tribe died in their hands.

Uncle, is this the big gift you mentioned?

Qiluo was extremely moved.

Li Nuo smiled and reached out to wipe away the tears on Qiluo's cheek: Are you satisfied?

Qiluo burst into tears and smiled: Satisfied!

The village chief couldn't believe it: Are you the girl who was rescued back then?

In that fire, if there was a fish that slipped through the net, it was the three-year-old girl.

Someone saw an old Taoist holding a girl and flying away in the sea of ​​fire...

Qiluo said with murderous intent: You killed my people and separated me from my parents for sixteen years!

The village chief smiled bitterly.

Is this the reincarnation of fate?

Retribution has finally come.

He laughed at himself: I admit defeat. But I won't let you have it easy. Zheng's treasure will never see the light of day, hahaha!

The scholar also laughed, his smile twisted and hideous.

The jade pendant on his body flew out, but was quietly broken into pieces.

The two of them also directly shattered their dantian and bit their tongues to commit suicide.

They knew that if they fell into Li Zian's hands, they would definitely be tortured to the point of death.

Seeing the two people vomiting blood and about to die, their faces looked a little proud.

Li Nuo sighed: Zheng's treasure? I am not rare. But there is one thing you have miscalculated. Zheng's jade pendant can only be activated by the Zheng's blood. It is useless for you to hold it, and you can't destroy it. Come on.

Qiluo stepped forward, picked up the broken jade pendant, and then put a drop of blood into it, and saw that the jade pendant reintegrated and returned to its original state.

The agency was too clever in its calculations, but it cost Qing Qing her life.

The village chief and the scholar widened their eyes and stretched out their hands to touch the jade pendant to prove its authenticity.

pity.

Their blood was exhausted, and in the end they failed to succeed and died in peace.

Later, the last jade pendant was also found from Mrs. Wang's body.

In this way, the Five Elements Jade Pendant has been collected.

Chief Lieutenant Chen, everyone in Anning Village must be interrogated one by one. No one will be wronged, and no evil person will be spared. Let Zhang Zhixian perform meritorious service and help you examine the case.

Don't worry, sir. Your humble position will definitely fulfill your mission.

Colonel Chen gave a military salute.

Well, let's wait and see. You can lead the soldiers directly to southern Xinjiang.

I will obey your orders!

It's dawn, it's just the right time. Qiluo, call Ran'er, let's go up the mountain now!

Li Nuo said lightly as he looked at the flash of fish belly white on the horizon.

Anning Village is just a side dish.

Tianjian Mountain, that is the real feast!

Master Sword Demon, it is better to choose a day than to hit the sun. Today, I will help you get this justice!
