dawn of dynasty

Chapter 68 Under the moon and over the river, the Holy Cross Swordsman
Shen Guanye was not the only one who was awakened.

Anshi, Shen Zhimei, Shen Zhizhu, Shen Guanyu, Shen Zhilan and his wife, as well as the old man who was still a guest at home, all woke up.

"What's going on? Who did the man downstairs say died?"

An was at the top of the stairs, looking at Shen Guanye who was running downstairs.

Shen Guanye looked up at the stairs. Under the dim morning light, his mother was holding the handrail of the stairs tightly with one hand, looking flustered, uneasy and unbelievable.

It was rare for him to see his mother, who had always been strong, show such an attitude.

Shen Guanye felt a little sorry in his heart.

"Mom, don't worry, I'll go take a look."

he said.

At the top of the stairs, several more figures soon appeared, including Shen Zhizhu and Shen Zhimei, who was holding a child.

Except for the infant nephew, everyone looked frightened and unbelievable.

Shen Guanye hurried downstairs.

"what happened?"

Looking at the two security guards, Shen Guanye asked with a serious expression.

The two of them seemed to have found their backbone at once, and quickly told what had happened. Even now, they still look shocked.

"I'll go to Zhou's house. You go and call someone. Call everyone over."

Shen Guanye's face was sullen, and his whole body exuded a chilling air.

"Yes!"

Next, following the banquet to celebrate Shen Guanye becoming the Lord of Tianqi, the entire Hongdong County once again fell into a sensation.

The difference is that the former is a happy event, while the latter is a horrific murder.

And the two are only one day apart!
When it was still dark, the doors of the security guards living in various parts of the county were knocked on by their colleagues.

The news of Zhou Chongzong's murder seemed to have wings. With the security guards running around, it quickly spread throughout the county.

Zhou family.

Shen Guanye comforted Aunt Zhou who was crying so hard that she looked at the bloody scene with a gloomy face.

Of course, he played it.

This bloody scene was created by him, and he already knew what kind of scene he would see when he arrived at Zhou's house.

Outside the gate, the neighbors kept looking inside, pointing and talking, sharing the horror and horror in their hearts, as well as the inexplicable excitement and excitement of encountering a big event.

Next to Shen Guanye was Governor Chen with a gloomy expression.

On Governor Chen's right side is a tall middle-aged man.

He has a square face, very dark skin, a muscular body, and a fierce face that makes him look very difficult to mess with.

This is the county magistrate and the second-largest person in Hongdong County.

His surname is Wang and his given name is Chicheng.

Nicknamed "King Tiger", he is the apocalypse of the warrior path.

Although he looks like a thug, he actually has a rough and subtle personality and is very capable.

Wang Xianzuo is not from this county. He was promoted from another county. He once served as the director of the public security station in another county, and he and Shen Guanye are considered colleagues.

"It seems that this case can only be handed over to the superiors."

Wang Chicheng looked gloomily and asked Chen Muyun for his opinion.

Chen Muyun's face was also not pretty.

This "Ghost Faced Yama" is so arrogant that he simply doesn't take the government seriously.

"Brother Ye, what do you think?"

Shen Guanye frowned, pretended to think about it, and then said:

"The Frost Soldier's fighting power is very strong, and his ability as a personal guard is even better than that of a seventh-level heroic spirit. He is even inferior to many eighth-level heroic spirits. But when it comes to finding the murderer, he can't put in much effort."

Seeing this, Governor Chen pinched his eyebrows with a headache. "Leave it to the boss."

Shen Guanye glanced at the direction of the door.

At the gate, the neighbors kept talking.

"What is Hero Yama doing? He actually killed Zhou Chongzong. Zhou Chongzong is a good man!"

"That's right! I used to think that Hero Yama was a hero who vented his anger on the common people, but now it seems that's not the case. He even killed good people like Zhou Chongzong. From what I see, he is simply an executioner!"

"Yes, he not only killed Zhou Chongzong, but also killed Zhou Shouwen and his wife. He cut them into pieces! It was so cruel!"

"Poor Chunxiang, she lost her husband, son, and daughter-in-law all at once, leaving only a grandson. What a sin!"

Sure enough, the common people's reputation for Yama Daxia began to deteriorate.

……

At night, the moonlight is sparse, and the moonlight falls on the river, shining with silvery fish scales. Steamships burning coal to form power are traveling on the Zhenlong River.

In the VIP guest cabin, Xie Changan was sleeping.

But his dream was obviously not so wonderful. His fat body was twisting on the bed, and he slept very uneasily.

The Holy Cross Swordsman sat upright on his seat, faithfully performing his duties as a bodyguard.

"Do not kill me!"

On the bed, Fatty Xie suddenly shouted and woke up.

Even if his eyes were as small as a slit, he could see the fear in Fatty Xie's eyes at this moment.

Fatty Xie was panting heavily. He was already fat and suffered from night sweats. Now he had a nightmare, and several layers of sweat were shed all over his body.

But Fatty Xie, who had just woken up from a nightmare, obviously couldn't care less.

He grabbed the water glass next to the bed and drank a few gulps into his mouth before he calmed down a bit.

"Damn Ghost Faced Yama!"

Fatty Xie cursed fiercely.

He was on his way back to his hometown in the countryside.

Originally he was very reluctant to go. He understood what his sister meant and knew that after returning to the countryside, he would no longer be able to enjoy a life of luxury and luxury.

Therefore, even though his sister clearly ordered him to go back to the countryside, he did not leave, but tried every means to delay it.

But after Zhou Chongzong's tragic death, he changed his mind.

He was terrified.

Ghost Faced Yama actually dared to take action against the people of the Public Security Station, and killed a sub-director at the very beginning, so will he kill his former director next?
How many dirty things did Zhou Chongzong do?

And how many people has he harmed?
Ghost-faced Yama even killed Zhou Chongzong, how could he let him go?
Even if he is protected by the Holy Cross Swordsman, and it is inferred that Ghost Faced Yama is very likely to be a fourth-level Apocalypse, which is not necessarily better than the Holy Cross Swordsman, Fatty Xie doesn't feel safe.

Mainly, he went to see the crime scene. The scene was so bloody that he was frightened on the spot.

In his dream just now, he dreamed of the ghost-faced Yama with three heads and six arms, trying to cut him into pieces.

At this time, Fatty Xie felt sticky and uncomfortable.

He frowned and opened his mouth to ask the maid to help him take a bath. Suddenly, there was a loud noise outside, and then the ship shook beyond the normal range.

Screams could be heard faintly.

The Holy Cross Swordsman suddenly stood up and took a warning posture.

Fatty Xie got out of bed instantly like a frightened bird and approached the Holy Cross Swordsman.

"What's wrong? What happened? Is Ghost Face Yama coming?"

Her voice was trembling, as if she would cry in the next second.

I thought I was already on the boat and must be safe, but I didn't expect to encounter such a situation - the Holy Cross swordsmen rarely showed such a vigilant posture before.

In the entire Hongdong County, except for the two Shuanghan Death Soldiers and a few Royal Forest Guards, there was no one who could catch its eye, let alone show a warning posture.
