Chapter 37
Lianhua Village is more than a hundred miles away from Chang'an City, with rivers crisscrossing, mountains surging, and lush grasses. If it weren't for the war, it would be a paradise.
During the reign of Emperor Yang of Sui, there were as many as a thousand farmers, and most of them moved out due to avoiding war.
Thousands of hectares of fertile land were left behind, but unfortunately there was a lack of labor force, and it happened to be drought and the cultivated land was not harvested for many years.
In the distance, a group of soldiers drove their carriages to Lianhua Village in a mighty manner.
"It's not good, the officers and soldiers have entered the village!" The little trumpet in the village ran around to inform.
The women and children hid alertly, and every household closed the doors and windows.
"Sister, what happened outside?" Chenxiang stood at the door of the yard and looked at the panicked villagers.
"I don't know, there is no good thing for the officers and soldiers of the Tang Dynasty!" Wang Xuanyun said coldly.
Her father died of the deception of King Li Shimin of Qin, and she had an lingering hostility towards the Tang Dynasty.
A group of officers and soldiers blocked the village gate, and the soldiers were all holding spears in full swing.
Wang Xuanyun walked over and pressed the scabbard with her right hand. There were all unarmed people here, so why mobilize such a group of people?
The head of the official, holding a "People's Resistance Notice", stood at the entrance of the village and read: "Due to the need of King Qi to expand his hunting ground, the characteristic is that the land in the northwest of Lianhua Village is 80 mu. Each mu is worth two liters of rice and one piece of satin, which will take effect today..."
The villagers were furious when they heard this.
Land is the guarantee for villagers to survive. King Qi actually forcibly expropriated land for personal enjoyment. What is the difference between this compensation condition and robbery?
It's really too much!
"Don't be ungrateful. It's a great honor for King Qi to compensate you. You should sign and seal it quickly!" said the official arrogantly.
It turns out that they are a group of greedy corruption officials who will only rob the people of their own.
A rage arose in Wang Xuanyun's chest.
Several soldiers from the front row stepped forward, pulled with the villagers, and forced them to press their handprints.
The soldier with his teeth and claws is not the most terrifying one. A terrifying black shadow comes, and this is the beginning of the nightmare!
Wang Xuanyun frowned, and the fear in her heart made her breathing rapid.
A giant nine-foot-long man appeared in front of him.
Bald head, two angry eyebrows, nostrils like pillars, bulging cheekbones, and a hideous and terrifying face!
His upper body was exposed, his arms were exploding, and an iron chain was surrounding his waist. Every step he took seemed to tremble.
It's a pity not to move bricks for this figure...
The big guy rushed to a villager, picked up the other person, and threw the villagers to the ground regardless of the pleading eyes.
The villagers vomited blood and their ribs were broken.
The monkey was killed and the big guy immediately shocked the audience as soon as he took action. All the villagers' legs became weak and their hearts were panicked.
"Ding!" Wang Xuanyun couldn't bear it anymore, so she pulled out her sword, flew up, and stabbed the big guy straight.
The big guy felt a chill on his back, and he dodged, avoiding Wang Xuanyun and taking his life-threatening sword!
A burst of dust rose and drifted away with the wind. A beautiful body held the sword in one hand, facing the rage of the big guy!
A wicked smile appeared on the corner of the big guy's mouth, and he smelled the bloodthirsty smell.
Wang Xuanyun was not ruthless. She wanted to speak out for justice for the villagers today.
The big guy sprinted, Wang Xuanyun waved his sword upwards, and the sword light shone, turning into a light blade, blasting towards the big guy.
"Puff!"
The big guy had a strong scalp and a hard blade. He rushed to Wang Xuanyun in the blink of an eye.
"Hoho!"
Wang Xuanyun stabbed the sword, clamped by the big guy's palms. In the face of absolute power, all moves are decorations...
"Your embroidery needle can't hurt me at all." The big guy grinned.
hateful!
Wang Xuanyun's chest was undulating and her face was frightened.
"Crack!"
Suddenly, Wang Xuanyun abandoned the sword with both hands, took out the fish spirit dagger from her arms, and slashed at the big guy's wrist with lightning speed.
The big guy caught off guard and underestimated Wang Xuanyun. His wrist was cut open and blood kept dripping...
"People with developed limbs have a simple mind!" Wang Xuanyun sarcastically.
The big guy was furious and was humiliated by a woman. It was a great shame!
He untied the iron chains around his waist, and shot at Wang Xuanyun like two giant pythons.
Wang Xuanyun lost her sword and no longer had the ability to resist. She was at a critical moment!
"Bang!" With a loud bang, a crystal halberd suddenly penetrated in front of Wang Xuanyun and knocked the iron chain to the ground.
A man in white robe stood on the roof with his hands crossed in front of his chest, looking particularly calm and composed.
"Master..." Wang Xuanyun blurted out. At the critical moment, the man in white robe quietly arrived.
The big guy was upset when he saw the rescuers coming, so he put away the iron chain and shot at the man in white robe!
The man in white robe was calm and as the attack cable was approaching, he shot out a rapid water column from his hand, blocking the chain in mid-air!
The big guy shook the chains and flew in the air. The water column tightly resisted the flying chains, so that it could not get close to the white-robed man.
The man in white robe flew over, put away the crystal halberd on the ground, and waved his palm at the big guy.
The big guys did not show any weakness, and they also slammed each other with their palms.
"Boom!" There was a loud bang.
The big guy's whole body was bounced three feet away, overwhelming a row of soldiers.
The man in white robe stood there, as if the thunder attack just now was just a dragonfly.
Wang Xuanyun was also shocked. The master taught him swordsmanship for seven years and had never seen his master fight with anyone.
His power is so powerful that the big guy is in front of him, like a weak little chicken.
"Let's go! There's a master here today!"
The big guy wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shouted at the officers and soldiers of the clan behind him.
These officers and soldiers had never seen this scene before. They were already scared and threw away their armor and fled in panic.
"Thank you, Master, for helping me!" Wang Xuanyun said in surprise and joy.
The man in white robe looked back at her and said, "You exposed your strength too early, this is a dangerous signal..."
"But that big guy is too cruel. If I don't take action, more villagers will suffer." Wang Xuanyun defended herself.
The man in white robe put away the crystal halberd and his face was as calm as ever.
"The big guy, named Ji Niu, is one of the four generals of the night, who serves Dugu Cultivation of Deity." The man in white robe continued.
In the past few years, a special assassination organization has appeared in Chang'an City, led by Dugu Xiude, and the infamous four generals of the Night.
The four generals of the night, namely the Ji Niu, Bai Gu, Vortex and Fengyun, defected to the command of King Li Yuanji of Qi and came forward to eliminate the dissidents in the court for him.
The party will fight against the differences and eliminate political enemies.
If you want to deal with Dugu Xiude, you must first eliminate the four generals of the night!
Wang Xuanyun felt a little scared. The strength of the muscle bull is so strong, not to mention Dugu Xiude.
There is also King Li Shimin of Qin, whose strength cannot be underestimated.
"Master, I know that I am not strong enough, but I don't have time to wait any longer. Assassination is the only way to defeat the strong by weak." Wang Xuanyun said when she saw the fish soul dagger in her hand.
This dagger is extremely sharp and is invincible wherever it passes!
"Today is just a coincidence. I can't be by your side all the time..." The man in white robe looked at Wang Xuanyun and said, "You must remember that you must hide your strength before you meet a real enemy."
Faced with the master's white robe's warning, Wang Xuanyun listened with ease.
Looking back now, I was too hasty when I took action against the muscle bull just now.
If the master hadn't helped him, he would have died under his iron fist.
How dangerous is the road ahead?
Can I still fulfill my wish and avenge my father?
The man in white robe turned around and left, leaving Wang Xuanyun who was messy in the wind.
