Mortal Mirror

Li Ergou asked what good thing it was, but Ye Wanwan just shook her head, because she didn't know either. Li Ergou suddenly remembered something and asked Ye Wanwan why she wasn't staying at the academy properly and always going to the yamen(衙门: government office).

To his surprise, Ye Wanwan was actually working part-time at the yamen(衙门: government office). It turned out that the disciples of the academy had performed very well this time, so the county yamen(县衙: county government) had already pre-selected some academy disciples to work in the county yamen(县衙: county government) with a salary.

Arriving in the city, he saw that it was being repaired everywhere, much more dilapidated than before, and it was difficult to see anyone smiling on the road. This corpse disaster was too heavy for the villagers of Kushui County(苦水县: name of a place).

Unable to manage so much, he went straight to the yamen(衙门: government office). The people inside were also very busy, but when they saw Li Ergou, they greeted him very warmly, calling him Brother Gou or Chief Constable.

Li Ergou naturally greeted everyone very kindly as well.

After wandering around the yamen(衙门: government office), he came to the Xiaoye Hall where the county commandant was. The county commandant Zhou Bin looked very happy when he saw him.

He hurriedly congratulated him, "Brother Ergou, you have made great contributions this time. The higher-ups have specially approved the title of Great Martial Master for you. From now on, you will be a Great Martial Master. Moreover, now that you are better, the higher-ups will also let you go to Yu City immediately to reward and commend you."

Li Ergou was delighted in his heart, not expecting such a good thing. He quickly thanked him, "Thank you, sir, for your promotion."

The county commandant smiled and stood up, actually coming directly to him, taking his hand, and said kindly, "Where are you talking about? Everyone is brothers. Now that you have connections with the higher-ups, you will surely have a bright future in the future. Maybe I will have to borrow your light in the future. When you are successful, don't forget me."

The county commandant was so attentive that Li Ergou felt flattered and embarrassed.

After the two exchanged pleasantries, Li Ergou came to his Qingcao Hall. Now that he was the Deputy Chief Constable of Kushui County(苦水县: name of a place), he was truly second only to one person and above ten thousand in this county yamen(县衙: county government), how carefree.

At this moment, who would dare not give him face?

A small husband cannot live a day without money, and a great man cannot live a day without power. Li Ergou truly felt the wonderful taste of power at this moment, like a cat that had stolen a fish, unable to stop.

He stood in front of the window, looking into the distance, only to see the clouds in the sky rolling and stretching, full of expanse, and he couldn't help but think in his heart, Yu City, wait, I'm coming.

Three days later, Li Ergou set off with the Black Beard Goat. Yu City(鱼城: name of a place) is more than five hundred miles away from Kushui County(苦水县: name of a place). Although it would only take Li Ergou a quarter of an hour to drive the flying sword, he would need a long time to replenish his spiritual power. Once he encountered a special situation, it would be terrible. Let's just be honest and walk slowly.

Although the Black Cat is fast enough, it doesn't have enough endurance. When it comes to long-distance travel, you have to look at the Black Beard Goat. This guy is not only fast and stable, but the important thing is that it has enough endurance.

To be honest, this was the first time Li Ergou had traveled so far. He had been looking forward to it. He didn't know what Yu City(鱼城: name of a place) was like. He heard that Yu City(鱼城: name of a place) was huge, with a population of hundreds of thousands. He really couldn't imagine how prosperous and huge such a big city would be.

What he didn't know was that as soon as he left Kushui County(苦水县: name of a place), the county magistrate of Kushui County(苦水县: name of a place) immediately released a carrier pigeon in his hand. The pigeon flew very fast and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

He heard him coldly snort, "Li Ergou ah Li Ergou, don't think you're having fun today, this time, I'll make sure you never come back.

You killed my brother-in-law and offended my Zhongyang Mountain(钟阳山: name of a place). Do you really think nothing happened?

This time, I'll let you know how powerful my Zhongyang Mountain(钟阳山: name of a place) is. Yu City(鱼城: name of a place), you think it's the place where you made your fortune, but in fact it's where you'll be buried."

How would Li Ergou know that someone was thinking about his little life in the dark? This time, he came alone and didn't bring anyone out. It was really troublesome to have too many people. It was good to be alone. He could leave whenever he wanted and stop whenever he wanted, enjoying the scenery along the way, wouldn't that be nice.

Now his wealth is so abundant. There are hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in the copper mirror. It's a pity that there was no reward for the final battle, otherwise he would have really made a fortune.

On the mountain path, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. The Black Beard Goat is huge, like a huge calf. Li Ergou directly lay on its broad back, put his hands behind his head, squinted his eyes, listened to the birdsong in the forest, and felt very comfortable. As he walked, he couldn't help but get drowsy.

After walking through the mountain path and entering the official road, the Black Beard Goat walked much more smoothly.

Suddenly, the Black Beard Goat stopped. Li Ergou sat up in confusion and saw that there were more than a dozen people standing in front of him. The leader was wearing a headband, had several pockmarks on his face, and was wearing a short shirt, revealing his muscular body. He was holding a wide knife that was about a meter long in front of his chest and had a fierce look on his face.

Before Li Ergou could ask what happened, this person revealed a mouthful of big yellow teeth and said, "I opened this mountain, I planted this tree. If you want to pass this road, leave the toll."

As soon as this person finished speaking, he suddenly swung his knife at a stone the size of a human head in front of him. He only heard a cracking sound, and the stone was split in half, but the knife was intact. It was a good knife.

Li Ergou was slightly stunned when he saw this scene. He really didn't expect that someone would dare to rob on the road within his jurisdiction. It was really his dereliction of duty.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and said unhappily, "Are you robbing?"

The big man was slightly stunned, and then said angrily, "What? Can't you understand human language? Quickly take out all the money on your body. Also, this goat is good, it's ours too. If you are good, I will spare your life, otherwise, see if the blade in my hand is sharp or not."

"Yes, our boss hasn't killed few people these days. Hurry up, or don't blame us for not talking about Jianghu(江湖: the pugilistic world) morality." A disheveled, somewhat thin person said behind the strong man.

Everyone booed, telling Li Ergou to get off the goat quickly. Li Ergou smiled and did not hesitate, jumping off the Black Beard.

The strong man snorted coldly and stretched out a hand, pointing at Li Ergou's chest and said, "Boy, you're sensible."

At this moment, Li Ergou suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed the strong man's hand, saying, "But, I don't want to give you anything."

The strong man was annoyed and tried to pull his hand back with force, but Li Ergou's hand was like an iron hoop, and he couldn't shake it. The strong man was shocked and stared with wide eyes and said, "Friend, where are you from? I am Wang Tiezhu(王铁柱: name of a person) from Liutiao Gully(柳条沟: name of a place)."

Li Ergou curled his lips, revealing a wicked smile, and then he saw him exerting a little force, and he threw Wang Tiezhu(王铁柱: name of a person) out for a distance of three or four meters.

With a patter, Wang Tiezhu(王铁柱: name of a person) fell to the ground, making a dog eat shit.

Li Ergou then slowly said, "I don't change my name, I don't change my surname, Li Ergou is also. Today, I want to see how powerful you guys are."

Wang Tiezhu(王铁柱: name of a person) was furious after falling and shouted, "Everyone, come on together and beat this bastard to death."

"No, no! Everyone stop!" At this moment, an old man with white hair suddenly shouted loudly.

Everyone was slightly stunned and looked at Old Li(老李: name of a person), wondering what he was doing. Even Wang Tiezhu(王铁柱: name of a person) looked at him angrily.

Old Li(老李: name of a person) immediately said, "Li Ergou, could it be that you are Li Ergou(李二狗: name of a person), the Deputy Chief Constable of Kushui County(苦水县: name of a place)?"

As soon as this name was said, everyone immediately became nervous and looked at Li Ergou.

Li Ergou didn't expect his reputation to be so great. Of course, he wouldn't be modest and nodded, "It's me, I didn't expect you to know my name."

After getting confirmation, everyone felt a little scared and retreated, looking at Li Ergou with nervous faces.

Old Li(老李: name of a person)'s voice trembled a little and said, "It's really you, it's really better to see once than to hear a hundred times. It is rumored that you slaughtered tens of thousands of corpses overnight, and the name of Blood Slaughterer is really well-deserved."

Li Ergou was slightly stunned, wondering when he had gained such a title.

Before he could speak, Old Li(老李: name of a person) knelt down with a plop and quickly said, "Please spare our lives, sir. We are just begging for food and have not really hurt the past villagers."

Seeing this, everyone finally reacted. According to rumors, this Li Ergou(李二狗: name of a person) kills people without blinking an eye, and even corpse demons are not his opponents. If he gets angry, wouldn't these people be doomed?

With this thought, everyone knelt down to Li Ergou and asked him to spare their lives.
