Chapter 103
The person who came was Zhongli, the good friend of Lord Gu. He has always been straightforward and irritable.
The sharp long knife was pulled out of the scabbard, and pointed straight at the Central Plains man just now.Zhong Li frowned and said viciously: "You fucking dare to say it again?!"
Zhongli's martial arts are extremely high, and he has great prestige in the world.Just pointing a long knife at a person like this is very oppressive.
The man seemed to be completely unafraid, with a contemptuous smile on his face.He raised his fingers lightly, pressing down on the back of the long knife slowly: "Senior Zhong, don't be in a hurry to get angry, your appearance will make me think that..."
He slightly raised his eyes: "You were told the truth, and you became angry from embarrassment?"
"Your grandfather and I are thick-skinned, and I have never been ashamed in this life." Zhongli swung the knife horizontally, and aimed the thin blade at the opponent's neck at an extremely fast speed, "We must pay attention to evidence in everything. , if you can’t get it out, you’d better weigh whether your little head is enough for me to cut it off?”
The cold wind was howling, and bursts of cold wind slapped on the face, making life painful.The gusts of cold wind were not as cold as the knife in Zhongli's hand, and when he touched it, he could feel the dead air of Gu Binghan clinging to his bones.
No matter how brave the man was, he still felt his heart tremble, but he closed his eyes and said, "The evidence is in the study of the lonely city master. If you don't believe it, you can send someone to see it!"
He said it so firmly that it was almost an established fact.In addition, there are some rumors and rumors in the Jianghu, which made some people from the Central Plains who were still waiting and watching couldn't help but waver.
"But the status and power of the lonely city master are already high enough, so there's no need to grab Phoenix Ling again?"
"Ham, there are so many people in the world, who dares to say that they don't have the slightest ambition to dominate the martial arts world."
"Based on the martial arts attainments of Gucheng Lord, he is indeed capable of slaughtering so many snobbish people in the Central Plains."
"By the way, he has recently handed over all the rights, big and small, to Vice City Lord Jiang. Did he just take advantage of this free time to go to the Central Plains?"
Various speculations and conclusions emerged among the crowd, and even some Mobei city residents who did not understand Chinese learned some information more or less with the help of others.However, compared to the Central Plains people who are mixed with fish and dragons, they still retain a high level of trust and support for their city lord.
Immediately, someone questioned: "But your dead Central Plains people were killed by swords. Our city lord is good at using bows and arrows?"
Zhongli also asked this question just now, but he had a bad temper, and before anyone could explain why, he pulled out the knife in his hand, and interrupted others in a daze.
The neck of the Central Plains man was framed by the cold blade, and red bloodstains were already oozing slightly at this time.He collected himself and said, "If I remember correctly, the Gucheng Lord knows how to use a sword, right?"
"The thin callus on his left hand is caused by using swords all year round!"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was surprised.
You know, as early as the beginning of August, Qianji Pavilion released the news that the people who slaughtered the Xiao family were quite skilled in swordsmanship, and they practiced swords every day, and this went on for no less than 30 years.There are not many martial arts seniors with such ability in the Jianghu, and after careful consideration, the Gucheng Lord unexpectedly fits all of them.
Zhongli naturally believed in his friends, but at this moment he still couldn't help turning his head and glaring at the lonely city master, the meaning on his face was very obvious: "Good boy, your mother knows how to use swords, but in order not to compete with me, you even went so far You must hide from me!
He had wanted to compete in martial arts with the lonely city lord more than once, but the other party refused on the grounds that he could only shoot arrows from a long distance and could not fight in close quarters.
So lied to him for decades! !
The Gucheng Lord understood the meaning in Zhongli's eyes, and couldn't help shaking his head helplessly.
He does know how to use a sword. In order not to affect his control of the bow and arrow, he also changed his left hand to practice the sword.But that was actually just a means of self-defense when walking in the rivers and lakes when I was young, but I didn't expect it to become a target for slander today.
It's just that only a few people who are extremely close to him know that he knows how to sword, not even Zhongli, a good friend who has been with him since he was a boy, doesn't know, how does that strange Central Plains person know?
The lonely city lord lowered his eyes, but Jiang Yao's seemingly docile and humble face appeared in his mind.
He didn't tell Jiang Yao about it, but not necessarily his daughter.
When the atmosphere condensed, a citizen of Mobei City hurried over with a stack of letter papers.He shouted while running: "There is really evidence!! I scraped it from the city lord's study!!!"
He skipped straight past the bustling crowd under the high platform, jumped onto the high platform in two or three jumps, and handed the stack of letter papers to Jiang Yao.
Jiang Yao opened the envelope, glanced at it roughly, and his expression changed drastically.He glanced at Guchengzhu very quickly, and a look of embarrassment and surprise flashed in his eyes.
Everyone was staring at him, so naturally they didn't miss the slightest expression on his face.Seeing the expression of the city lord's own son-in-law, he became more certain in his heart.
Someone yelled angrily at the lonely city owner: "Murderer!! You can kill so many people!!!"
Zhong Li's face darkened.
Jiang Yao immediately shattered the stack of letter papers with internal force, letting them blow all over the sky with the cold wind.After being shattered, he couldn't wait to deny it: "There is nothing on it!! You must not slander my city lord!!"
That's right, there is no silver 300 taels here.
The man from Mobei City who was holding the letter just now said immediately: "Deputy City Lord! You can't just be indiscriminate like this just because you are the City Lord's son-in-law!!"
"These letter papers are full of all the information about this murderer slaughtering the martial arts in the Central Plains, and then dominating the Jianghu. You are all shattered, what should you do if you let this thief quibble?!"
Jiang Yao looked deathly at home: "What nonsense are you talking about?! Get the hell out of here!!"
One of these two people sang bad faces and the other sang bad faces.While pouring pots of dirty water on the face of the lonely city master, he also added a reputation of loyalty and filial piety to himself.
It's really a chain of links, such a big scheme.
The people in the audience began to take the rhythm: "Catch this murderer!! Make amends for our martial arts people in the Central Plains!!!"
The citizens of Mobei City were caught off guard by this sudden change. Although they were all biased towards their own city lord in their hearts, they were a little confused by the ironclad evidence after another, and they didn't know what to do.
A radical city resident even yelled directly: "Our city lord is a great hero, even if he really kills you Central Plains people, it's because of what you did! You deserve it!!"
A large part of the Central Plains people who came to Mobei City were just passers-by who came to inquire about Fenghuangling's news. When they heard the attitude of the people in Mobei City, they immediately exploded: "The owner of the Xiao family is a good old man with a name and surname in the world. What can he do that is outrageous?! Even if he has, would his wife, children, and the old man in the house do outrageous things?!!"
"It's clear that your city lord's ambition is undead, and you slaughtered so many people in our Central Plains for an unwarranted treasure!! You still don't know how to repent! It's really pissing me off!!"
It is a terrible thing for personal conflicts to lead to two forces, and even ethnic conflicts.
Most of the current glory of Mobei City depends on the business and entertainment of people from the Central Plains and other ethnic groups. If several forces form an enmity because of this, it will be extremely difficult for Mobei City to survive in this man-eating desert in the future.
Although the people in Mobei City love their city lord, most of them still want to live in peace and stability.If one day this city lord affects their survival, then the safest way is to abandon this city lord and change to another one.
Those loyal people who are alone can naturally stand up strongly and say that they firmly support the city lord.But those with families, those with parents, wives and children waiting to eat, dare not stand up so resolutely.
Fish and dragons are mixed, and people are panicked.Some people regard death as home, while others shrink back in fear.People's hearts have never been able to withstand scrutiny and testing. In just half an hour, the Mobei city residents who were united as one were provoked to fall apart.
The Gucheng master was very calm from the beginning to the end, he looked at all kinds of people in the audience, and only asked indifferently: "If you can't find the phoenix feather on me, what should you do?"
"Then you handed over the Phoenix Ling to someone close to you for safekeeping!!" The people below answered quickly, "If I guessed correctly, the owner of the Snow Burial Villa is your student, right?? "
- Misfortunes lead to the east.
He even thought of this.
The lonely city lord lightly stroked his fingertips.
It's time for him to give Jiang Yao a good compliment. In order to completely break him down, he actually thought so carefully.
Zhong Li is straightforward, seeing the disputes and conflicts among the crowd getting more and more acute, he immediately wanted to brandish his knife and threaten them with his own force.
Unexpectedly, before the knife was swung out, his body suddenly became sore and limp, as if thousands of ants were gnawing at his bones. It didn't hurt, but it made him almost miss the knife in his hand.
There is a very secret medicine in Jianghu called Ruan Gong San.Those with more profound martial arts are easy to lose their internal strength and martial arts in a short period of time, while those with weaker martial arts are not affected much.
Ruan Gong San is produced in southern Xinjiang. Since they were burned down by Luo Yinchuan a few years ago, this insidious medicine has almost become extinct.I don't know where Jiang Yao got it from, it's really hard to guard against.
The lord of Gucheng obviously also noticed something was wrong, he turned his head and looked at the nominal son-in-law indifferently: "You have such a thorough plan, so you don't worry about Hua Ya and Gu Shaoxia coming back?"
Jiang Yao also knew that the city lord was doubting himself, but he didn't even bother to argue, and smiled softly: "I'm sorry, your precious son and that Gu Xiaoyong are probably buried in the belly of a wolf."
The lonely city lord frowned.
A clear voice suddenly sounded behind them: "As long as there is a peanut, you will not be so drunk."
