On the Avenue

Chen Shi squeezed out of the crowd, took off his hat, and threw it on the roadside.

The clothes on his body were a bit long, so he tore off a section and wrapped it around the palm of his hand. He gritted his teeth and tied a knot on the back of his hand, and shook it hard. It was quite smooth.

The cloth is linen, the texture is rough, but the grip feels very good.

"This way you don't have to worry about the knife falling out when it's stained with blood."

At this time, bursts of thunder were heard in the sky. Chen Shi looked up and saw that a dark cloud had come and covered the clear sky. There is still moisture in the wind, and it should rain soon.

Chen Shi called Hei Guo and said, "Hei Guo, have you seen Mr. Fu?"

The black pot immediately led the way, and Chen Shi followed it, shuttling through the streets, and soon arrived at the home of the county magistrate Zheng Shiyun.

Zheng Shiyun has been the county magistrate for many years. He is powerful and dignified in Xinxiang County. He does not have many enemies in Xinxiang County.

However, at this moment, there was a wailing in Zheng Shiyun's house. Chen Shi broke in and saw Zheng's servant falling to the ground. Zheng Shiyun had a bamboo pole pierced through his chest and stuck in the wall. However, the injury was not fatal and he was crying out in pain.

Zheng Shiyun's wife, children, and children were at a loss. They tried to pull out the bamboo pole, but they couldn't pull it out at all. They tried to pull Zheng Shiyun out, but the end of the bamboo pole inserted into his body was broken and pierced into his flesh and blood. Pulling it out would also pull out the flesh and blood. .

"All the county government officials were dismissed. No one was guarding the county government office. No one checked when they heard the fighting. The only person who could give this order was the county magistrate Zheng Shiyun. So Zheng Shiyun knew who the lady was! Mr. Fu is here. I’m here to force him to tell me who the noble lady is.”

Chen Shi reached out and grabbed the bamboo pole and said, "Zheng County Cheng, who is the lady who bought Shen Yusheng's divine fetus from you?"

Zheng Shiyun was in unbearable pain, and his forehead was covered with big beads of sweat. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain, and hissed: "You can also ask the lady who she is, okay! I'll tell you! The Li family belongs to Governor Li. Family! Do you dare to provoke me? Who did I provoke?

Chen Shi pulled out the bamboo pole, and Zheng Shiyun screamed in agony, but he finally came down from the wall, only a few pieces of flesh were torn off by the cracked bamboo.

Chen Shi looked at the bamboo pole. The bamboo pole should have been broken off from Wencai Academy. The texture was very tough. Fu Leisheng's strength was too great, causing one end to break.

Chen Shi's face was as dark as water, and he asked: "The child scholar who was the number one scholar in fifty provinces ten years ago, who sold his divine fetus? And who bought it?"

Zheng Shiyun said: "Ten years ago, I was not the county magistrate. How could I be qualified to sell his divine fetus? All the people who sold the divine fetus were dead. I heard that the people who bought the divine fetus were afraid of leaking the news and killed them all. "

"How many divine fetuses has Mr. Zheng sold over the years?" Chen Shi said.

Zheng Shiyun was wary and said cautiously: "I have never sold it. If Governor Li's family had not inquired personally this time, how could I have done such an outrageous thing?"

Chen Shi carried the bamboo pole and walked outside. As he walked, he broke the damaged end of the bamboo pole.

The bamboo pole was originally as tall as a person, but after he broke it into pieces, it was only about three feet long.

Zheng Shiyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him walking out of Zheng's house.

"I don't believe it."

Chen Shi's voice came from outside the wall.

Zheng Shiyun was shocked. Outside the wall, Chen Shi made a sword seal with his left hand and poured his true energy into the bamboo pole. The bamboo pole was like a sword. With his finger of the sword seal, it shot out like lightning. The huge force pierced the wall and penetrated Zheng Shiyun's throat.

Zheng Shiyun flew up with a roar, fell backwards, and hit an old tree at home with a bang, three or four feet above the ground.

"The Ziwu Evil-Slaying Sword...can still be used like this?"

His limbs drooped down, motionless.

Crying came from the Zheng family.

"Those who take the divine fetus must die!"

Chen Shi left, "Mr. Fu doesn't want to get his hands dirty, I'll do it for you!"

"Chen Shi, what are you doing here?"

Chen Shi, led by Black Dog, caught up with Fu Leisheng. Fu Leisheng couldn't help frowning, stopped, and shouted, "Today is your happy day. You are the number one in Xinxiang. The true god descends and gives you the divine fetus. You will soar to the sky! Don't you want fame?"

He was standing outside a house on the corner of the street. There was a bundle of twenty or thirty bamboos, and a hatchet stood next to it.

"Mr. Fu, you are still not ruthless enough."

Upon seeing this, Chen Shi knew that he was looking for bamboo. He immediately stepped forward, grabbed a hatchet, and cut the slender bamboo poles into three or four feet in length. He sharpened one end, tied them into a bundle, and carried them behind his back.

"I don't trust you as a scholar to kill people." Chen Shi held the hatchet in his hand, and the linen wrapped around his hand fit perfectly.

Fu Leisheng fell in love with this family's moso bamboo, which was about 1.7 feet long and extremely tough.

He cut off the front end of the bamboo with a burst of sword energy, picked up the bamboo and walked away, saying coldly: "I have a death wish, and I won't care about you when I get there!"

The owner of that family went out to look for a hatchet and found that the hatchet was missing, the bamboo had been cut into pieces, and the moso bamboo had been carried away. He couldn't help cursing.

The two came to the dock by the Qingqu River and raised their hands to hail a boat. Chen Shi asked, "Boatman, do you know where Governor Li's family lives?"

The father and daughter on the boat recognized Chen Shi, and the boat girl smiled and said, "I remember you, you are rich, not like those poor people! Governor Li's family lives on East Street, in the house of a wealthy Lingnan businessman. It’s so big! Why are you asking about this?”

"Send them a bundle of firewood!"

Chen Shi jumped onto the boat, threw a piece of silver to her, and said, "Excuse me, please take us there."

When the boat girl saw that it was two or three taels of silver, she couldn't help but smile and arch her eyebrows and said: "Okay! Dad, please go faster! These two people are seeking revenge. Let's send them over. Hurry up." Run, don’t get involved!”

Fu Leisheng looked at the boat girl, and the woman chuckled and said: "We have been sailing on this river for many years, who hasn't seen you? You are so murderous, you are seeking revenge at the first sight. Hey, you go and find your sweetheart. What's the use of carrying these bamboos?"

Chen Shi said sternly: "These bamboos are sharpened at one end to form a sword shape, which is suitable for the first posture of Ziwu's evil-killing sword, the thrusting sword posture."

The boat girl shook her head and said, "It's not appropriate for you to carry it on your back like this. I have a fish basket on my boat. You put it in the basket."

She fetched a fish basket, which could hold twenty or thirty thin bamboos. Chen Shi carried it behind his back, which was quite light, so he thanked her.

The boat girl chuckled and said, "Are you two going to collect the corpse?"

"Need not."

Chen Shi tightened his grip on the fish basket and said, "I have killed too many people. If I collect the bodies, I don't know how much it will cost."

"Boom!"

There was thunder in the sky, but it never rained, only gloomy.

The boat girl took an umbrella, put it into his hand, and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, you have killed many people! Take it quickly, don't get soaked in the rain."

Li Xiaozheng was the new governor of Xinxiang Province. He only stayed in Xinxiang County for one day and then took office immediately.

After all, he is an important official appointed by Xijing. Xinxiang Province is an important place, and the Zhao family is in trouble. He has unleashed demonic transformations and sacrificed countless people with blood.

However, he left in a hurry, but his family didn't have to be in such a hurry. They could have fun and slowly walk to the provincial capital.

Governor Li was an upright man and did not like women. He only married two wives, Wei Yin, the daughter of the Xia family, and Jing Shu, the daughter of the Yan family, who were listed as his wife and his wife.

In addition, there are three concubines and several maidservants.

As for the outer chamber, there is no such thing.

He cherishes his reputation very much.

On this trip, the two ladies and three concubines each took their retainers, heirs, and slaves to play in Xinxiang County for a few days to wash off their fatigue.

The eldest lady Xia Weiyin smiled and said: "The master went to Xinxiang Province the day before yesterday to take up his post. He was busy with official duties and had many mundane things. It was inevitable for officials from all walks of life to visit, and there were personnel appointments and dismissals. It was very noisy. We want to kill the Zhao family's heads again. The heads are rolling to the ground. Let's Women don't want to see this, it's too bloody. But after two days, I think we've finished cutting off the heads, so that I don't have a woman by my side, so I won't be fascinated by some fox."

The second lady, Yan Jingshu, said: "What my sister said is true. This Xinxiang is no other place. The officials in Xinxiang were originally from the Zhao family. Now that the Zhao family has collapsed, they are left without a master. When they see the master, they don't know how to curry favor with him. Why not give him money?" Giving a treasure to a woman? Although the master has a good reputation, the key is that he can’t stay pregnant.”

The two ladies smiled knowingly, invited the wealthy Lingnan businessman, and said, "Master, thank you for your hospitality these days. We will set off for the provincial capital today. We don't dare to disturb you."

The wealthy businessman from Lingnan was an old friend of Li Xiaozheng, and his business was that of the Li family in Quanzhou. Hearing this, he quickly said, "How many days do you two ladies want to stay? You are so filial to a villain."

Madam Xia Weiyin waved her hand and said with a smile: "We live in your house, and everyone in your house feels uncomfortable. They don't dare to speak loudly. It's just a disturbance, how can I cause you more inconvenience?"

The wealthy businessman from Lingnan didn't dare to disobey, and immediately ordered someone to prepare some silver coins and treasures, saying: "I know that the two ladies and the lord are not short of these, but at least I am a villain."

The two ladies didn't take it seriously and said, "That's all, I'll just treat it as your filial piety." After that, they ordered people to accept it.

The second lady, Yan Jingshu, ordered the slaves and servants to pack their bags and prepare to set off.

At this time, the young master Tianxiu came up, looking very energetic.

Yan Jingshu asked: "Why is my son so happy?"

"Mom, Sister-in-law Gu and Mr. Zeng gave me a new divine fetus. I can practice it with twice the result with half the effort!"

Li Tianxiu smiled and said, "It was put in from the back of my head, so it still hurts a little."

The two ladies were shocked.

Li Tianxiu is Yan Jingshu's youngest son. He is usually a baby. He holds it in his hand for fear of falling and holds it in his mouth for fear of melting.

The young master has been extremely intelligent since he was a child, but he doesn't like to study. He has not yet become a divine child.

Someone in the Li family originally said that there was a concubine named Li Tianqing in the side house who was favored by the true god and was given a first-grade purple jade divine fetus, so it was better to give it to the young master.

Later, nothing happened.

When I came to Xinxiang County this time, I heard that someone in this small county town actually received a divine fetus during the literary test. It was the first-grade Wenchang divine fetus that countless people could only dream of, which made others envious.

At that time, Yan Jingshu and Xia Weiyin were chatting and said casually: "If Tianxiu can also get a first-grade divine fetus from the true god, I will be satisfied."

"It's probably Mrs. Gu who made her own decision!"

Yan Jingshu was a little angry and ordered someone to call Sister-in-law Gu.

After a while, Mrs. Gu came.

This woman was in her forties and was originally the nanny of the Li family. Seeing that she was sensible, the two ladies promoted her to be the steward of the inner palace, managing all matters.

Sister-in-law Gu is indeed smart and capable, and she does everything properly, which saves the two ladies a lot of worry.

Yan Jingshu scolded Sister-in-law Gu, paused, and said, "Since your matter has been taken care of, there is nothing I can do about it."

"Did the child who had his divine fetus dug out be buried well?" Xia Weiyin asked.

Mrs. Gu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Madam. Of course, we will bury him with honor. We didn't take him by force, but bought him with a lot of money. The child's family is from the countryside. He has more than one son, so it doesn't matter if one is missing. We have given him enough money."

Xia Weiyin nodded gently and said, "After all, it is a matter of damaging one's virtue. It will be bad for the Li family if it gets out. Master, you cherish your reputation."

Mrs. Gu understood and said, "I will handle it cleanly. Only the county magistrate and a few yamen runners know about this. Madams, the carriage is ready and the things are packed. You should set off early."

Xia Weiyin nodded gently and walked out surrounded by the women.

Yan Jingshu asked Li Tianxiu, smiling, "How do you feel about your new divine fetus?"

Li Tianxiu was inexplicably excited and said, "Mom, I feel a hundred times more energetic, and my cultivation is also many times faster!"

Yan Jingshu said sternly, "Since you have a good divine fetus, you should study with Mr. Zeng and stop being indecisive! If you mess around with those maids again, I will break your legs!"

Li Tianxiu hurriedly said yes, and when he saw a tall horse, he said excitedly, "Mom, I'm going to ride a horse!"

Yan Jingshu had no choice but to let him go.

Everyone walked out of the manor and got on the carriage outside the manor.

Li Tianxiu rode his horse and galloped out of the city, smiling: "Mom, I'll wait for you outside the city!"

Yan Jingshu hurriedly said: "Mr. Zeng, take your men and follow Tianxiu!"

A scholar in his fifties bowed and said yes, and was about to get on the horse, when suddenly there was a whoosh, and a green light flashed, passing through the back of Li Tianxiu's head, and out of the front of his head, bringing up a bloody light!
