The First Beastmaster of the Nine Realms

Chapter 187 There is no head that cannot be chopped off

Jian Baisan's hand was tightly gripped on the handle of the knife, trembling all over.

"Tiger Roaring Mountain is..."

"Gao Manzheng!" Liu Jingyun panicked, and raised her hand to grab Jian Baisan's shoulder: "Calm down first, I'll tell you."

Jian Baisan's whole body was like a steel plate, he couldn't even move it, and his muscles were stiff to the extreme.

"Zhongqi, stop! Jian Baisan, sister, listen to me," Liu Jingyun patted Jian Baisan's back lightly, "Turn around first, and listen to me."

Jian Baisan was finally pulled by her, and when she turned around, the muscles on both sides of her thin cheeks bulged, which was caused by her clenched teeth.

"Who?" Jian Baisan squeezed out a word from his teeth.

Gao Manzheng suddenly thought of something, opened his mouth in surprise, but remained silent.

He remembered the name.

Isn't this, isn't this the head couple of Huxiao Mountain, the name of their eldest daughter that they mentioned back then?
They all said that she was taken away by some god, but Gao Manzheng always thought that this meant that their daughter died young!

Why is there such a person?

Gao Manzheng looked at Jian Baisan, she was dressed plainly, and she didn't show any supernatural powers, besides, where are there any immortals in the world?

Perhaps, he completed the story in his heart. Jian Baisan dreamed of traveling as a teenager, left home for ten years, and met the two of them on the way home?
When I came back, I found that things had changed and time had changed, and the old man was gone forever.

If so, that is too bitter.

"About two years after returning home, I reconnected with Tiger Roaring Mountain," Liu Jingyun said, "Even your father and Lingtang attended my wedding at that time..."

"Later, we had a close relationship."

"Yes," the Hou Ye came back to his senses and added with a complex expression, "We have a very good relationship."

Hearing "father" and "lingtang", Jian Baisan's red eyes finally moved slightly.

Seeing Jian Baisan's expression, Liu Jingyun suddenly had a sore nose and couldn't continue speaking.

"Let me tell." Gao Manzheng said.

"Five years ago, Chai Feng, the governor of Chen County, suddenly ordered to wipe out all the bandit villages in the county."

"The task was issued very quickly, and we lived far away in the capital. It was already the fourth day after we got the news."

"We don't know exactly how many soldiers there were... and we don't know exactly what happened."

"My wife gave birth prematurely from crying. When we sent people to arrive, we only learned that there was a wildfire there, and it burned for seven days and seven nights."

"It's a shame that I'm just an idle marquis with no power and power—that's all."

Gao Manzheng felt ashamed.

"The last time they saw it, there was only a deserted hill..."

"After that, Chai Feng built temples and schools on it. It was a lot of trouble. But because of his merits in suppressing bandits, he was quickly promoted."

"Those schools and temples are no longer used."

Jian Baisan gritted his teeth and said, "Where is the person? Is there any news about him?"

Gao Manzheng finally showed his unbearable expression: "...I'm sorry."

"We haven't heard from your father and Ling Tang. But—we learned from them very early on that your sister left Huxiao Mountain the second year after you left. We heard that she went to a school to get a reputation , but we don’t know where she went. Over the years, we have searched for all the young women surnamed Jane in the four counties, but we haven’t found any.”

"If you talk about people..." he said, "Although I don't sound good. But your sister, right now, is the most likely to be alive."

"Chai Feng." Jian Baisan said, "This man. Where is he now?"

The husband and wife looked at each other and said, "The capital."

Jian Baisan said: "I'm going to find him."

Gao Manzheng was surprised: "This... I'm afraid it's a bit difficult."

"why?"

"Because, he is the current right prime minister, Liu Mengcheng, Master Liu's teacher!"

"And Liu Mengcheng is the most ruthless traitor today. Under the imperial power, he can cover the sky with one hand."

"In the capital, no one dares to trouble him. Those who disobey him will expose their corpses in mass graves. Don't even think about messing with his teacher! Little friend Jian, please be careful!"

"Speaking of which, I still have a guess, just a guess." Gao Manzheng said in a low voice, "The year Chai Fengqing suppressed the bandits, Liu Mengcheng had just finished the imperial examination, and the first governor of He County..."

He County is connected with Chen County.

"What does Chang Shi do?"

"The power to hold soldiers and horses."

After a moment of silence, Gao Manzheng looked at Jian Baisan's back, and said again: "I am just providing information, and I can also lend you some dead men. But, little friend, you must not go head-to-head. I am protected by the emperor, but you are fine. Background—I told you this to let you have a clue and to find it slowly, not to let you die!"

With a calm expression, Jian Baisan said, "I know. But, I can't slow down."

"...What?" Gao Manzheng was startled, and suddenly felt that this person was too difficult to persuade: "Even if you can fight, you are alone, what are you going to do? If you are really the only one left in your family, me and A How could Yun have the heart to watch you die!"

"One person is enough." Jian Baisan's eyes were burning with the sharpness of hatred.The beating of her heart even brought her a little pain, and her five internal organs were twisted as if they were scorched, but there was still no expression on her face.

"My knife has never touched a head that cannot be chopped off."

Even if she has lost all her spiritual power now, and her physical fitness is ordinary - but hasn't she passed through this time?

At least—at least, let her find her sister!

Gao Manzheng let out another long sigh.

But Liu Jingyun said: "Okay. Zhongqi, let's drive. We will take a shortcut from the south and return to Beijing. We will arrive in two days."

"Your family has helped me," she said, "We will definitely take care of your affairs!"

Gao Manzheng said: "That's right, that's what I mean too. But please think of a way, little friend, on the way."

Zhongqi was ordered to gallop the horse.Hou Ye Gao Manzheng accompanied him.

On the way, Jian Baisan wanted to take over from Zhongqi to drive the horse, but her internal organs were twisted, and she completely forgot about Shanyin, who weighed 45 kilograms around her waist, and couldn't even stand up.

Jian Baisan, Xiao Bi and Liu Jingyun frantically untied it for a long time before they got the knife off Jian Baisan's waist and smashed it on the carpet in the carriage, making a heavy muffled sound.

In the middle of the night, the horse was very tired, and several people traveled for dozens of miles, and finally saw a small village.

Daxiang Village is engraved on the village head tablet.

"Let's rest here for two hours." Gao Manzheng got off his horse and said, "The name is also very auspicious. I'll go find their village chief."

The village head is old, but he handles things neatly.

Seeing the carriage with the family crest, he nodded and bowed, very courteous: "Master Hou, please come!"

After a while, several young girls came to serve tea.

After being waved away by Gao Manzheng whose complexion changed dramatically, it was another sumptuous supper.

As soon as supper was over, a few young men came over to get their robes to be washed.

Liu Jingyun frowned and refused.

"These people," she said after they had left, "are they being overly attentive? We stayed in another place before, and we didn't mention that the outer robes have to be washed, right?"

Gao Manzheng sneered, "This is not the capital after all... Even if I am a powerless Marquis, they will be afraid."

Afterwards, the village head personally took them to a neat small courtyard.

But before everyone entered his room, the village chief knelt down.

The gate of the small courtyard was suddenly opened, and there were densely packed villagers kneeling outside.

"Master Hou, save us—" the head of the village pulled Gao Manzheng's sleeves, weeping, "There are murderous corpses in our village, and in just a few days, more than a dozen families died! Lord Hou -"

Xiao Bi raised her brows upside down: "Presumptuous! This is the Marquis of Fanzhou!"

The village head turned a deaf ear.

"The township chief is dead, no one is here, please, please save us—"

　A warm reminder: the hero is really not a good person in the traditional sense, he is different from our 130! ! !
