Chapter 194 Trampled to death

At this time, other messengers also gathered around and said, "Boy, it's fine for you to come and understand the situation, but if you act wild here, you won't be able to leave this door."

"That's right, hurry up and let go of Brother Li!" someone else shouted.

The old man with a mustache snorted coldly: "Throw him out!"

Hearing this, everyone reached out to grab Chen Xian, but they couldn't move him at all. They felt that Chen Xian was like a mountain, motionless.

"roll!"

With a burst of momentum, a group of messengers were knocked over in an instant, and fell to the ground screaming.

The old man with a mustache was stunned for a moment, then stood up and said angrily, "You are a rebel, someone come...!"

As he was shouting, his neck suddenly tightened, and the old man with a mustache softened immediately: "Young man, don't get excited, don't get excited...!"

At this time, two guards rushed in. Seeing that the messenger was grabbed by the neck, they were also stunned. One of them was the guard who brought Chen Xian here.

"I'm not going to tell you anymore. Stop making trouble here. Do you want to die?" The guard was furious. He rushed to Chen Xian and tried to move his arm, but he couldn't move it.

"Let go of Master Cheng first." The guard shouted, "Do you know Master Cheng's identity?"

Chen Xian's eyes flashed coldly, staring at the guard: "Speak."

"Lord Cheng is the city lord's cousin. Are you looking for death by holding him hostage like this?" the guard shouted coldly.

Chen Xian nodded secretly and stared at Cheng, "You are responsible for all the letters coming in and out of the county, right?"

Without waiting for the man surnamed Cheng to answer, the guard snorted coldly, "Don't waste your words. Lord Cheng is the letter officer, in charge of all the correspondence in the county. If you dare to touch him, not only the Lord of the City, but also the County Magistrate will not let you go."

Chen Xian ignored the guard and pinched Cheng's neck fiercely: "Tell me, why did you embezzle the money I sent home?"

Since this Cheng was in charge of all correspondence in Fengyun County, he must know the whereabouts of the silver he sent back from the border.

Unless it is small change, it will not reach Fengyun County.

When Cheng heard this, his face suddenly changed: "Young man, you, you let me go first, let's talk it over."

Chen Xian didn't move, and the cold light in his eyes became more and more intense.

"Hurry, go and get Liu Jiang to come back." Facing Chen Xian's sharp eyes full of murderous intent, the man surnamed Cheng shuddered all over.

The messenger who had checked the registration documents for Chen Xian earlier hurried away.

Not long after, he came back with a young man in his early twenties.

The young man didn't know Chen Xian, and his face changed when he saw their chief clerk being arrested.

"Sir, you, you are looking for a subordinate?"

Cheng glared at Liu Jiang fiercely and asked, "Did you embezzle his money?"

Liu Jiang was stunned by the question and glanced at Chen Xian: "Are you from Liuquan Town? What's your name?"

"Chen Xian."

"Chen Xian? Chen Xian?" Liu Jiang murmured twice, and couldn't help but look at the man named Cheng without saying anything.

"Damn it, why are you looking at me? Did you embezzle the money he sent back from the border?" Cheng yelled.

"Sir, I don't have it." Liu Jiang shook his head repeatedly.

Judging from the performance of Liu Jiang and Mr. Cheng, there should be no problem with Liu Jiang. If there is any problem, it should be with Mr. Cheng.

But Liu Jiang might know something.

Chen Xian let go of the man named Cheng, grabbed Liu Jiang's neck with a click, and lifted him up.

Liu Jiang was stunned for a moment, and shouted: "It's not me, it's really not me, I didn't embezzle your salary......!"

"You know it's salary?" A cold light flashed in Chen Xian's eyes.

Liu Jiang also paused, his eyes rolling around.

"Say!"

"I, I don't know!"

Chen Xian suddenly exerted force on his hands, squeezing the latter so hard that he started coughing violently and could hardly breathe.

Everyone's faces changed drastically. The two guards wanted to take action, but were kicked away by Chen Xian.

Liu Jiang was also frightened and shouted out loud: "It's not me, it's Master Cheng."

Cheng kept winking at him. When he heard the latter shout, he was so angry that his eyes were about to burst: "You bastard, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Snapped!
Chen Xian let go of Liu Jiang and slapped him. The man named Cheng screamed and was slapped back and forth, hitting the wall with blood spurting out of his mouth.

"Damn it! You dare to hit me? You're dead!"

boom!
Chen Xian flashed past and stepped on Cheng's face: "If you don't tell the truth, I'll crush your head with one foot."

Everyone in the room was horrified.

The two guards who were kicked away also stood up with painful expressions on their faces and were about to leave, but Chen Xian shouted at them, "If anyone dares to move, I will kill him immediately."

The two guards were so frightened that they dared not move.

Chen Xian stepped on the man surnamed Cheng and continued to ask: "I'll give you three breaths of time."

"You bastard, my cousin is the city lord, how dare you kill me..."

"two."

"Damn it! Let me go, or I'll kill you!"

"one."

Chen Xian stepped hard with his feet, deforming Cheng's face.

“No, no, no, I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you…” Seeing Chen Xian’s murderous look becoming more and more intense, Cheng completely softened and said, “Someone told me to do this.”

"Who?" Chen Xian asked coldly.

"It was a messenger from the border who said he was the son of Marquis Wuping. General Zhang offered him ten taels of silver." The man surnamed Cheng felt weak all over after he finished speaking. He was sure that Chen Xian would not dare to touch him after hearing about Marquis Wuping.

"Marquis Wuping?"

Chen Xian's eyes flickered slightly. He seemed to have heard it before. After thinking carefully, it was Pei Menglong who told him that Zhang Pingyang, Marquis of Wuping, and Zhang Pingyang's son were Zhang Junyu. Zhang Junyu was indeed a general at the border.

When they were at the Demon-Suppressing Pass, Zhang Junyu always wanted to kill him, and later he asked Yuwen Xuan to deal with him. But Yuwen Xuan was also a piece of trash. However, Yuwen Xuan's cousin Yuwen Ye was a bit of a character.

However, after the Demon-Suppressing Competition was over, Zong Rantong, Yu Fenglin, Shen Wenmo, and Zhang Junyu did not return to the Nine Demon-Suppressing Armies. Shen Wenmo was later sentenced to death by Emperor Ning, and he did not know whether the other three were alive or dead.

Inside the room, everyone was staring at Chen Xian.

No one knows how this young man offended the son of Marquis Wuping.

"Chen Xian, if you want to find someone, go find General Zhang Junyu, the son of Marquis Wuping. He was the one who asked the messenger to teach me to do this. If I don't do this, he will make it impossible for me to continue my work and prevent my cousin from becoming the mayor of Fengyun County..."

"So you did this?" Chen Xian stared at the man named Cheng coldly.

"I have no choice. He is the son of Marquis Wuping and a general at the Demon Suppression Pass. How dare I disobey you?"

"Does your cousin Cheng Guheng know?" Chen Xian asked coldly.

"He knows. I told him..."

Boom!

With one step, Cheng's head exploded, blood splattered everywhere, and the headless body bounced on the ground.

Chen Xian rubbed his shoes on the ground, turned around and walked out of the room.

The messenger, Liu Jiang, and two guards in the room were all terrified.

It was not until Chen Xian left that they gasped and shouted, "Something bad has happened! Lord Cheng has been killed!"

Soon, the news reached the City Lord's Mansion.

Cheng Guheng, who was practicing, was also stunned when he heard that his cousin was killed.

There are not many people in his Cheng family, but there are at least forty or fifty of them, and each of them holds a position in the county.

The position of Xinli in Chengxuansi was indeed arranged, and it was a ninth-rank official position.

"Who is so bold?"

Cheng Guheng was furious. When he heard the old housekeeper report that it was Chen Xian, he was stunned for a moment: "It's Chen Xian again. He is really courting death by running to the county town to kill officials..."

"Why did he go to Chengxuansi to kill the messenger?" he asked angrily.

Chen Xian killed Liu Shifu in the town. Liu Shifu oppressed the townspeople and committed heinous crimes, so killing the official to eliminate evil was justifiable.

But Chen Xian went to kill a messenger, wasn't that crazy?
The old butler told the story in detail. Cheng Guheng was slightly stunned. After thinking carefully, he couldn't remember who mentioned the name Chen Xian in front of him.

As for Wu Ping Hou, he definitely knew him, and he also knew Zhang Junyu, but he had no contact with the latter at all.

"Heinous crime!"

Cheng Guheng walked out of the training room angrily. He was about to ask someone to invite Liu Bingfeng when Cheng Ying came over and said, "Dad, Master Zhang is almost in Fengyun County."

Hearing this, Cheng Guheng's eyes flickered slightly. Speaking of which, this Master Zhang was the nephew of Marquis Wuping. He didn't have time to deal with Chen Xian's affairs immediately. He told the old housekeeper to bury his cousin's body first.

We will deal with this matter again in three days.

Afterwards, Cheng Guheng took Cheng Ying, Zhang Tong and others to the outskirts of Fengyun County to welcome Mr. Zhang.

On the official road, two luxurious carriages came accompanied by guards.

The curtain of the leading carriage was lifted, and a young man in yellow brocade clothes walked out, waving a paper fan. This young man was indeed a bit similar to Zhang Junyu, with a cold and arrogant look on his face.

He is the Young Master Zhang mentioned by Cheng Guheng, Zhang Junqing.

"Lord Cheng, long time no see." Zhang Junqing waved a paper fan, and then his eyes fell on Cheng Ying again: "Miss Cheng, I brought one more person here to celebrate your birthday, you don't mind, right?" Cheng Ying chuckled and said politely.

Cheng Guheng hurried forward and said, "Master Zhang, I wonder which master is in the carriage behind."

Zhang Junqing jumped down from the carriage and said with a smile, "Young Master of the Yu Family."

"The Yu family?" Cheng Guheng was stunned, his eyes flickering slightly: "Is it the thousand-year-old aristocratic family in Longtang Lake, the Yu family?"

"Yes!" Zhang Junqing nodded proudly and walked towards the carriage.

When Cheng Guheng heard this, a look of shock immediately appeared on his face, and he quickly walked over.

However, Master Yu did not show his face in the carriage, but said coldly that he would return to the county first.

Cheng Guheng quickly invited Zhang Junqing to get on the carriage, and they all moved forward in a mighty procession towards the City Lord's Mansion.

After returning to Fengyun Restaurant, Chen Xian naturally kept an eye on the movements in the City Lord's Mansion.

Because the city lord Cheng Guheng was a very problematic person, Liu Shifu recorded in his account books that he had given money to the old butler Cheng Guheng, amounting to a thousand taels of silver.

The old butler also instructed Liu Shifu to find some ancient tomb in the town.

The account book contains detailed records.

"Digging graves and stealing treasures?" Chen Xian thought to himself. At this moment, the city lord Cheng Guheng brought his daughter out of the city to pick up people. He saw it clearly with his spiritual eyes.

Neither the city lord nor that Mr. Zhang could feel it.

He even saw clearly the Young Master Yu in the other carriage.

"Yu Fenglin?"

He narrowed his eyes slightly. Yes, the Young Master Yu who came with Zhang Junqing was Yu Fenglin.

Chen Xian thought about it carefully and realized that the Yu family was also from Fengtian Realm, the Longtang Lake Yu family.

"What is he doing in Fengyun County?" His eyes flickered slightly. It was impossible for Yu Fenglin to come to kill him, and it was even more impossible for him to celebrate the birthday of the city lord's daughter. There must be other things.

At this time, Chen Rong came to ask for a word, and Chen Xian retracted his spiritual eyes.

On the other side, Cheng Guheng also welcomed Zhang Junqing and Yu Fenglin into the City Lord's Mansion and entertained them warmly.

at the same time.

In the western district of Fengyun County, at the foot of a black mountain, buildings are lined up one after another.

It is the lair of the Red Wolf Gang in Fengyun County.

Ma San stood at the gate, pacing back and forth. After a while, a member of the Red Wolf Gang called him away.

Ma Shan had a look of fear on his face and didn't even dare to raise his head as he followed the man.

Soon he was taken to a hall.

Sitting at the upper seat in the hall was a man in black, a one-eyed man with a huge sword. There was another person sitting on the seat to his left, who looked to be in his early thirties, with a pair of extremely sinister eyes.

Ma San walked into the hall, knelt down, and bowed to the one-eyed dragon: "Ma San, the steward of the Red Wolf Gang in Liuquan Town, greets the Grand Hall Master."

"Get up and talk." The one-eyed man said in a low and hoarse voice.

Ma San stood up tremblingly.

The one-eyed dragon asked coldly, "You said Jinshan was killed?"

Jinshan is a deacon sent by the Red Wolf Gang to Liuquan Town, and serves as the leader of the Red Wolf Gang in Liuquan Town.

"My Lord, he was killed by Chen Xian. He killed the leader of the Jinshan Gang, the elders, the deacons, and almost killed my subordinates as well." Ma San said tremblingly.

"Chen Xian? Who is he?" Anger flashed in the one-eyed dragon's eye.

Ma San immediately told Chen Xian everything about his situation.

"Demon Suppression Pass, retired soldier?"

A hint of solemnity flashed across the one-eyed dragon's eyes, "This man is so brave, he even dares to kill an official appointed by the imperial court?"

Ma San lowered his head and said, "Master, Chen Xian has come to the county. Hurry up and catch him and kill him. If he doesn't die, the Red Wolf Gang in the town will definitely be eliminated by him."

The one-eyed dragon nodded secretly: "This hall master understands, you can go down."

Ma San nodded repeatedly.

Not long after he left, another carriage slowly came and stopped outside the Red Wolf Gang.

A man wearing a black cloak and a hat got out of the car and asked to see the leader of the Red Wolf Gang.

The person who came leaked a little bit of his aura, which frightened the members of the Red Wolf Gang. The guard at the door hurried to report. A moment later, a man in black windbreaker entered the Red Wolf Gang, also into the hall. The one who saw the man in black was the One-eyed Dragon leader.

"Who are you? Why don't you dare show your true face to others?" The One-Eyed Dragon Hall Master frowned and stared at the man whose face was half covered under the black windbreaker.

At this time, the man took off his coat and hat, revealing his entire face.

"Liu Hu?" The one-eyed dragon stared at the person who came with a slightly serious look in his eye.

The person who came was Liu Shijie. His eyes were red and he looked in a very bad state. Without saying anything, he asked someone to carry in a large box. The box was filled with silver, more than a thousand taels.

The one-eyed dragon took a quick look and asked coldly, "What does Liu Hu mean by this?"

The Red Wolf Gang and the Liao family have been cooperating secretly, and Liu Shijie is also very powerful. He knows that he is the deputy chief guard of the Liao family.

But the Liao family has never cooperated with the Red Wolf Gang in this way, and it is impossible for them to come to the Red Wolf Gang to find them in broad daylight.

Liu Shijie said coldly: "This thousand taels is a deposit. Please help me kill one person, Red Wolf Gang leader. If you succeed, I will pay another thousand taels of silver."

A hint of coldness flashed across the eyes of the one-eyed dragon: "You asked our leader to kill someone, Liu Hu, you may have come to the wrong place, right?"

"Three thousand taels!" Liu Shijie didn't waste any words.

"Three thousand taels and you want to move our leader..."

"Five thousand taels."

"Kill who?"

"Chen Xian!"

The one-eyed dragon was slightly stunned for a moment, and after a while he reluctantly nodded: "Okay, this hall master will agree to your request first, but whether the gang leader is willing to take action or not, you go back and wait for the hall master's news."

Liu Shijie didn't say anything else and turned around and left with his men.

……

City Guards Department.

After Liao Feiyu was beaten, he did not return to the gambling house or the Liao family, but went directly to find his uncle Liao Huaiyuan.

Liao Huaiyuan was practicing when he saw Liao Feiyu with a bruised face and nose, and asked about the situation.

"Chen Xian?" Liao Huaiyuan was stunned. Isn't Chen Xian in the town?
"How did you provoke him?" he asked.

He knew a lot about his nephew's character, but he was his nephew after all, and blood was thicker than water.

Liao Feiyu told Cai Lin about counting money in his gambling house, and said that he did not go to Cai's store to ask Cai Yujiao to spend a night with him. He only asked the Cai family to pay back the money. Then Chen Xian appeared, grabbed him and beat him up, and his followers were also injured by Chen Xian.

Liao Huaiyuan's face was solemn. He had seen Chen Xian's strength before. Liu Bingfeng from the Demon Suppression Bureau couldn't even block a single move from him. What a concept.

In the entire Fengyun County, only the city lord Cheng Guheng might be able to fight Chen Xian, but he might not be able to defeat Chen Xian.

"Don't provoke him again!" Liao Huaiyuan said sternly.

Hearing this, Liao Feiyu was a little angry: "Second Uncle, I came to you to let you vent my anger."

He did not say that he could not beat Chen Xian, but said: "This man is extremely evil, a vicious murderer, and the city lord is trying to catch him recently. Don't provoke him. This kind of person can kill people at will."

Liao Feiyu was stunned for a moment, "A vicious murderer?"

On the way to the City Guard, he actually heard what Wang Ming said. He felt that Wang Ming said it on purpose because he wanted him to take action to deal with Chen Xian. It turned out that guy was really a vicious person.

"Second uncle, we should catch him. Tell Lord Liu from the Demon Suppression Bureau to catch him quickly and put him in jail. I want to torture him severely." Liao Feiyu said viciously.

Liao Huaiyuan's eyes flickered: "What did you just say about the Cai family?"

Liao Feiyu said, "Second Uncle, the Cai family is a small jewelry dealer. They seem to have moved here from the town. Yes, they are from the same town as Chen Xian."

Liao Huaiyuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Go check and see what the relationship between Chen Xian and the Cai family is."

Liao Feiyu said: "No need to check, one of your lieutenant Wang will know, they are from the same town!"

Liao Huaiyuan frowned. He had more than one Lieutenant Wang under his command. After finding out that the man's name was Wang Ming, he immediately asked someone to call Wang Ming over.

Wang Ming worked in the City Guard Department and didn't often see the chief.

He was also very nervous when he saw Liao Huaiyuan at this moment.

"Entering Chongyuan?" Liao Huaiyuan looked Wang Ming up and down. He was in the late stage of blood movement. He asked, "Are you from the same town as Chen Xian?"

"Your Excellency, we are neighbors." Wang Ming replied respectfully.

"What is the relationship between Chen Xian and the Cai family?" Liao Huaiyuan asked.

"Sir, you are talking about Cai Jinghong, Mr. Cai. He is also from our Liuquan Town. He was originally a neighbor of the Chen Xian family. Later, Cai Jinghong made money in the jewelry business and moved to the main street. Later, he came to the county town."

Wang Ming recounted the relationship between Chen Xian's family and Cai Yujiao's family, saying that the two of them were childhood sweethearts, but Cai Jinghong looked down on the Chen family and that the Cai family had done the Chen family a favor.

Hearing this, Liao Huaiyuan's eyes lit up. He couldn't hold Chen Xian, but he could threaten the Cai family, especially Cai Yujiao.

Liao Huaiyuan already had an idea in his mind.
