Chapter 637 Execution in advance
Seeing a bunch of old guys who were unable to stand kneeling down to him, Marshal Xu could only suppress his anger and said: "Oh, you guys are over a thousand years old together. Kneel down for me and you won't shorten my life!"
"
Sensing the displeasure in Marshal Xu's tone, the mayor hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't you dare, we old stubborns just hope that Marshal will uphold justice, but we don't dare to touch your hands. Come on, get up quickly, get up."
When they heard the mayor calling them to get up, the old men stood up tremblingly. Two of them even climbed up twice without getting up. The guards who had previously blocked them from approaching the Marshal's Mansion helped the two old men up.
Marshal Xu knew that these old men would not leave unless this matter was handled well, so he asked the mayor: "Tell me, what's going on?"
The mayor's eyes turned red and he said: "Commander, you left Hongyue Town two days ago. The people here seem to have lost their backbone. They look forward to your return every day. We..."
"Tell me the important point!" Marshal Xu urged impatiently.
In the past few years, he had been tortured by his eighth wife at home, and his temper had improved a lot. If it had been a few years earlier, he might have drawn his gun and beat the grinding mayor into a sieve.
The mayor nodded: "Okay, let's talk about the important point. In the past few nights when you left, there were often zombies in the town, but there were only one or two. As long as everyone closed the doors and windows, at most some animals would be killed.
Almost no one was bitten."
"But just yesterday, a new face came to the town. Not only was he sneaky, but he also prevented Taoist Master Qingxin's disciples from giving out spells to the people."
"At that time, I felt that he was not a good person. Sure enough, at night, a large number of zombies suddenly appeared in the town. The number was more than before."
"Many people were hiding at home, but they were still attacked by zombies. Those who got the Taoist Priest Qingxin's spell were lucky to survive, but those..."
The mayor pointed to the corpses covered with white cloth behind him and said with a choked voice: "They did not get the charm because of the trouble caused by the evil people, and were eventually bitten to death by zombies. Commander, tell me, are the evil people who caused the trouble the culprits of their deaths?"
In fact, yesterday, because Mo Shouchen lowered the price of the talisman to an ocean, more people were able to get the talisman.
But the mayor had a grudge because he didn't get any money, so he confused right and wrong and recruited a group of old friends to frame Mo Shouchen together.
Moreover, Mo Shouchen did not mention anything about his promise to help Hongyue Town deal with zombies, which shows how vicious his intentions are.
Marshal Xu frowned and said, "Is there such a thing?"
"Yes, I heard that Marshal Xu captured the evil man last night. I also ask you to punish the evil man who brought disaster to Hongyue Town on the spot. His body will be hung in the East Market for three days to show the anger of the people!"
Marshal Xu thought for a moment and said: "Don't rush to kill people yet. After the matter is found out, I will give an explanation to the people of Hongyue Town."
The mayor excitedly pointed at the group of old men behind him and said: "Marshal Xu, we are already this age, how can we still lie to you? That evil man cannot stay, otherwise at night, we don't know what trouble will happen!"
"Yeah, that evil guy can't stay!"
"Shuai Xu, my nephew was bitten to death by a zombie last night. Please make the decision for me!"
A group of old men also echoed the mayor's words.
Marshal Xu was upset by the noise from these old guys. He waved his hands irritably and said: "Okay, okay, I promise you, if there is no result at three quarters of noon, I will execute that person on the spot. That's fine.
Bar!"
The mayor knew that this was the biggest concession that Marshal Xu had ever made. If he continued to pester him, if he really pissed Marshal Xu off, he would definitely not be able to live with it.
So he decided to give it up as soon as he was ready, nodded and bowed and said to Marshal Xu: "The Marshal is wise, the Marshal is wise!"
After finally sending these old guys away, Marshal Xu yawned, and then directly kicked each of the guards guarding the door.
"Useless trash, if someone wakes me up in the morning again, I will cut off the heads of you two bastards and hang them on the door to see who dares to come and cause trouble!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the door, but he did not go to his room.
Last night, because he came back late and was too tired, he went directly to his room to sleep.
But now I am completely refreshed, plus I have been away from home for several days and have not eaten meat, which makes me feel itchy.
So he rubbed his hands and walked to the eighth concubine's room, saying excitedly: "Baby, I'm here!"
…(This is paid content)…
At noon, Mo Shouchen was escorted to the vegetable market by several soldiers, and the surroundings were crowded with people.
Marshal Xu was sitting in the shade, and Taoist Priest Qingxin and the mayor were sitting on the left and right sides of it.
There was a table in front of them. Marshal Xu picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, and then said to Mo Shouchen: "If your master hasn't appeared at three quarters, then I can only kill you."
Mo Shouchen first glanced at the crowd, then turned to Marshal Xu and said, "Commander, didn't you agree to give me a day? It's only half done now. This is different from what we agreed to yesterday."
Marshal Xu took a leisurely sip of tea, and then said with a smile: "If your master is really that powerful, he will definitely think that you are in trouble and will naturally come to save you. If he doesn't come, then you can only pray to find him in the next life."
A more reliable master."
Seeing the mayor and Taoist Priest Qingxin looking at him with sinister eyes, Mo Shouchen knew that it must be the two of them who were responsible for Marshal Xu's execution in advance.
Marshal Xu's attitude is very resolute. It is probably useless to say anything. It seems that he can only find a way on his own.
Seeing that the sun was about to reach its highest point, sweat broke out on Mo Shouchen's forehead. His black book and talisman bag were put away. If he really wanted to be executed, he could only use the power in his body.
Although after gaining that power, he could easily kill the soldiers holding guns and Taoist Master Qingxin, but it would definitely affect the script mission this time, which was the last thing he wanted to see.
At this time, the mayor took out his pocket watch, took a look at it, and then said to Marshal Xu: "Marshal, it's three quarters past noon, and it's time to carry out the execution."
"Got it!" Marshal Xu took a leisurely sip of tea, then put down the tea cup and said to the adjutant next to him: "Do it!"
"yes!"
The adjutant walked to the table and said loudly: "It's three quarters past noon, get ready!"
"Wow!"
The soldier standing behind Mo Shouchen pulled the bolt of his gun and put the muzzle of the gun on the back of his head. As long as the adjutant gave the order, he would pull the trigger.
At this time, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted: "Commander, you are wronged, Master Mo is not a bad person, you wrongly blamed him!"
Mo Shouchen followed the voice and found that the person speaking was a literary talent.
"Yes, Master Mo is a good person. If it hadn't been for him yesterday, we wouldn't have been able to afford the talisman. It was him who saved us."
This time, the people interceding for Mo Shouchen were the couple who couldn't afford the charm yesterday.
There were people in the crowd pleading for Mo Shouchen one after another. The adjutant looked back at Marshal Xu and wanted to ask for his opinion.
But Marshal Xu didn't even raise his eyelids and was just drinking tea. The adjutant immediately understood what Marshal Xu meant.
He raised his hand high in the air, then suddenly lowered it while shouting: "Execution!"
Feeling the muzzle of the gun on the back of his head push forward again, Mo Shouchen knew he couldn't wait any longer. He began to activate the power in his body, and his eyes were instantly covered by black mist.
Just when he was about to release his power, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted: "Save someone under the knife!"
Hearing this voice, Mo Shouchen felt happy, and the dark fog in his eyes became much lighter.
Chapter completed!
