Qingzhou City is one of the main roads from the border to Yancheng.
If we know the approximate time for Zhang Xiaozu to return to Yancheng from the border, and then stay here in advance, we will have a high chance of waiting for Zhang Xiaozu.
Zhu Liangjun stood on the wall of Qingzhou City, looking at the fierce battle taking place on the main road in the city from a distance, and couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth with pride.
He felt that he was a lucky person favored by God.
The Crown Prince gave them three roads. Among them, the two roads that Zhang Xiaopeng was most likely to pass through were chosen by others first. He could only pick up the remaining roads chosen by others, but he did not expect that he would find Zhang Xiaopeng.
It can be seen that God's will is such, and this credit should go to Zhu Liangjun.
"Master Zhu, this pawn is just a gangster. Do we think too highly of him by using such a large force?"
Yan Liangping, the governor of Qingzhou City, looked at the five loaded octagonal crossbows on the city wall and the 30,000 soldiers waiting in formation outside the city gate. He felt that Mr. Zhu next to him was making a fuss.
To deal with just a gangster, he felt that he only needed to dispatch a thousand archers and at most two volleys to turn Zhang Xiaopeng into a hedgehog. Why dispatch an octagonal heavy crossbow and 30,000 soldiers?
Besides, there are still two to three thousand Jianghu people gathered in the city, both good and evil, and they are all here for Zhang Xiaopeng.
He felt that it was most likely that Zhang Xiaopeng was hacked to death by these Jianghu people without any need for them to take action.
"Be prepared for any danger. If we miss the mission assigned by His Majesty the Crown Prince, neither you nor I can afford it." Zhu Liangjun responded.
"What Mr. Zhu said is that I didn't think well enough," Yan Liangping said, but he still didn't care.
In fact, Zhu Liangjun also felt that the battle was a bit grand and that he was killing the chicken with a butcher's knife. However, thinking of the tasks assigned by the Crown Prince Su Yang, he felt that it was better to be prepared in such a strict manner to avoid taking advantage of the credit and slip away.
If you can kill, kill him. If you can't kill him, you must find out the details of his cultivation.
This is the task assigned to Zhu Liangjun by Su Yang.
When Zhu Liangjun accepted the mission, he responded: "He must be killed!"
…
The sharp arrow from the sneak attack failed to succeed, and was shot in front of Zhang Xiaopeng. Zhang Xiaopeng easily dodged it with his head turned sideways, grabbed the arrow in his hand, and then threw it back in the direction where the arrow came from.
There was only a pop sound, and then a figure rolled down from the roof not far away, and fell to the ground with a bang. The arrow was inserted into his head, entering from the forehead and passing out from the back of the head. It was difficult for the gods to save him.
.
"Are you Zhang Xiaopou, the murderous maniac?" A swarthy, muscular man jumped out from the street, blocking Zhang Xiaopou's path, and shouted in a thunderous voice.
"I am Zhang Xiaozu, but I am not a murderer." Zhang Xiaozu stopped and said.
"I thank you Yuan Ba for breaking the empty fist. Today I am here to rid the world of martial arts of this scum. I would like to invite all my friends from the martial arts world to help me raid the formation." The dark-skinned man signed up for his number, hoping to kill Zhang Xiaopeng and show his sage in front of others.
"Six months ago, I was blocked and robbed by a group of thieves outside the city of Anding. In a fit of rage, I killed more than three hundred thieves and asked a few thieves who narrowly escaped from being killed to send a message to the world of martial arts."
"Maybe those thieves were scared out of their wits by me and just ran for their lives. They didn't hear what I said clearly, so they didn't convey my words to you well. Then I will take this opportunity to say it again."
Zhang Xiaozu glanced at the groups of martial arts people on both sides of the street with a flat gaze, and said word by word: "I, Zhang Xiaozu, can kill people!"
"I sincerely advise you to think carefully before taking action against me. I am not a wooden stake for you to practice. I will only allow you to hit me without fighting back. I have a knife in my hand and I will kill people."
"When you try to kill me, I might kill you in return. You only have one life, so please cherish it!"
"You are so shameless, punch me in the face!" Xie Yuanba shouted with his eyes wide open. He stepped in front of Zhang Xiaozu, and the majestic true energy wrapped around his fist shot out of the air and hit Zhang Xiaozu in an instant.
Snapped!
Zhang Xiaozu pushed his palm flat and easily blocked Xie Yuanba's punch.
"Hey!" Xie Yuanba shouted loudly. He kicked the ground and used his fists to push Zhang Xiaopeng away. However, he was shocked to find that his fist seemed to be hitting a mountain and could not be shaken. Let alone knocking Zhang Xiaopeng away.
, he couldn't even move Zhang Xiaopou's palm back an inch.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Zhang Xiaozu's mouth, and he suddenly raised his right foot and stepped forward, pushing forward with his palm.
Thumb thump thump——
Xie Yuanba staggered on his back and took more than ten steps back before regaining his balance.
The martial arts people on both sides of the street were all shocked.
They could roughly judge from the strength of Xie Yuanba's true energy that he was at least at the fifth level of heaven. However, his full punch could not make Zhang Xiaozu take a step back. Instead, he was pushed back by Zhang Xiaozu's palm.
More than ten steps.
"I look down upon you!"
"Look at the punch!"
Xie Yuanba's face was like a pig's liver and he was extremely embarrassed, but he still maintained his composure. He was anxious to regain his position and threw his fist at Zhang Xiaopou again.
Knowing that Zhang Xiaozu was very powerful, he didn't dare to compete with Zhang Xiaozu anymore, so he used superb moves. The shadows of his fists were erratic, and he couldn't tell which ones were real and which ones were fake, and they hit Zhang Xiaozu overwhelmingly.
But Zhang Xiaozu suddenly slapped his palm, flew up and down, and slapped Xie Yuanba's fists back one by one, as if he was playing with ease.
Zhang Xiaozu even walked forward while holding Xie Yuanba's fist, and sarcastically said as he walked: "How can a guy like this who doesn't know how much he weighs have the nerve to go out and show off his power? Who gave you the courage? You are not afraid of death.
Really? Or do you think that people outside your home are just like your parents, who will let you tolerate you? "
"A scholar cannot be killed but cannot be humiliated. I will kill you!" Xie Yuanba roared angrily.
"I'll help you." Zhang Xiaozu responded, slapped Xie Yuanba's fist away with his palm, turned his palm into a sword, and struck Xie Yuanba's neck with a thud.
There was a click.
Xie Yuanba's neck was bent at a horrifying angle, his head slumped on his shoulders, and he fell with a bang in front of Zhang Xiaopou with his eyes wide open, lifeless.
Zhang Xiaozu raised his feet to sell Xie Yuanba's body, glanced at the martial arts people on both sides of the street, his eyes were as indifferent as before, and said: "I said that I, Zhang Xiaopu, can kill people, please don't turn a deaf ear."
"Eradicating violence, bringing peace to the good, upholding justice for heaven, and upholding justice are our unshirkable responsibilities and glorious missions as cultivators. Why should we fear life and death?"
"If so many of us are frightened by a few words from a demon, how can we have the dignity to call ourselves chivalrous people? How can we have the dignity to wander around the world?"
"Let's all go together and kill this devil to rid the martial arts world of harm."
"Kill!"
Zhang Xiaozhu's eyes suddenly turned cold. He looked at the Jianghu people rushing towards him from all directions. He was confused and didn't understand what justice was in the hearts of these people.
Is it true that where there are more people there is justice?
Which side has the loudest voice and which side is justice?
What's scary is that they are brave enough to die for such justice.
Zhang Xiaozu feels that this group of people is extremely scary, because as long as he controls the direction of public opinion, he can control them to kill people.
As long as you find a way to make them think you are evil, they can carry the banner of justice, stand on the highest moral ground openly, and judge a person's life and death with peace of mind.
As for what the truth is, it doesn't matter to them at all.
In their view, if so many people say you are evil, then you must be evil. Otherwise, why would everyone say you instead of others?
laugh!
The bone knife was sharp and slashed through a person's throat, causing blood to splatter.
But even blood splattering could not stop the madness of this group of martial artists.
However, the dazzling blood and the deafening shouts of killing aroused Zhang Xiaopeng's evil spirit and ferocity on the battlefield.
Every time a sword is swung, someone will die.
With every step a dead body falls to the ground.
Whoosh whoosh——
The sound of hidden arrows and weapons breaking through the air could be heard endlessly, but under the cover of Zhang Xiaopou's subtle state of mind, there was no chance to succeed.
Wherever Zhang Xiaopeng pointed his sword, no one could touch it.
The streets were stained with blood and dead bodies were everywhere.
Killing one person makes people angry, killing ten people makes people shocked, killing one hundred people makes people fearful, killing five hundred people makes people fearful!
One mile long street, five hundred corpses.
No one dared to approach Zhang Xiaopou again.
"If you just listen to a word of advice, why would you end up dead on the street?" Zhang Xiaozu looked back at the long street, shook his head and sighed.
The people around them were all horrified when they heard this. Thinking of Zhang Xiaozhu's words to advise them to cherish their lives, they became even more frightened, and they couldn't help but want to retreat.
"Don't be afraid, everyone, he is at the end of his strength!"
"This demon will definitely seek revenge. If we let him go today, when he recovers, he will definitely come to seek revenge."
"This devil must be eliminated today to avenge the innocent souls who died in vain!"
"kill!"
Someone is hiding in the crowd and deliberately fanning the flames.
Zhang Xiaopou snorted coldly, rushed forward with his sword, and killed those who fanned the flames one by one.
Fighting resumes.
But it stopped again at the next street corner.
Looking back, there were hundreds of corpses on the ground again.
"Don't be afraid, everyone, he is at the end of his strength!"
"——"
"This time it's true!"
"——"
Zhang Xiaozu rushed over and chopped the man with a knife.
"Demon - ah - don't kill me!"
As soon as someone opened his mouth, Zhang Xiaopeng immediately rushed towards him. He was so frightened that he turned around and ran away. However, Zhang Xiaopeng caught up with him and chopped him to the ground with a knife.
"Did you see that this guy who was yelling at you not to be afraid of death is actually a coward as timid as a mouse?" Zhang Xiaozu kicked the corpse and said with a smile.
The crowd slowly retreated to both sides of the street. Zhang Xiaozu's murderous ruthlessness made them want to retreat again.
"This demon has the most precious Sumi mustard seed on his body. There are thousands of Yuanshi golden elixirs in the Sumi mustard seed."
"If we kill him, each of us can get at least three Yuanshi Golden Pills."
Zhang Xiaozhu was speechless because the sound came from the roof of the next street.
Just when he was considering whether to catch up and kill this person, a tall and tall figure suddenly appeared behind him, and at the same time, a dark sword with cold light was placed on this person's neck.
"Hero, Rao——"
laugh!
Before he could even say the word "life", a sharp sword wiped his neck.
"Brother Zhou!" Zhang Xiaozu shouted in surprise as he looked at the tall figure appearing on the roof.
