Longevity from Liao Zhai

Chapter 79 Offending the Richest Man
He Yunlu wanted to snatch He Yunqing away, but was stopped by Zhou Ping.

Zhou Ping is not trying to be a hero and save the beauty, but it is his duty.

Who made me a bodyguard?
He Yunlu became so evil that he chose to kill people directly.

In He Yunlu's opinion, isn't it just about money?

In the past, he had forced women of good families into prostitution and had even taken possession of brides.

Murder is also common.

In He Yunlu's opinion, there is nothing that cannot be done without money.

The sword energy emitted by the spirit ring did kill someone, but it did not kill the real person.

He Yunlu felt a little distressed.

This sword energy is worth four or five hundred taels of silver.

He Yunlu was not sad about the money, but sad about why he failed to kill Zhou Ping.

It is a huge loss to kill a little maid with four or five hundred taels of silver.

Zhang Sheng saw He Yunlu attack Zhou Ping and hurried out of the rouge shop. Although he had cultivation, he was only a Confucian tenth-rank scholar and was not good at fighting.

Zhang was afraid of being implicated, so he hid away early.

The cold policeman's pupils shrank slightly.

The sword energy just now gave him a sense of crisis.

Captain Leng has reached the ninth level of cultivation, and has been in this position for more than ten years.

Although Qinghe County is remote, Captain Leng has seen the world.

Captain Leng has also seen many masters.

Captain Leng had heard a little about He Yunlu's hidden weapon.

This item was made by the Imperial Observatory and is in short supply.

The spiritual ring can kill ninth grade.

Captain Leng was covered in cold sweat and couldn't help but take two steps back.

In several nearby counties, Captain Leng is the ceiling of combat power.

Apart from the old monk Puming of Jinhua Temple, Captain Leng has never been afraid of anyone.

What’s more, the old monk Pu Ming is already at the end of his life.

If a real fight breaks out, as long as Captain Leng can hold on, he will definitely be able to wear Pu Ming down.

I’m afraid Pu Ming will burn his life to kill someone.

A dying counterattack by an eighth-grade warrior would frighten even a seventh-grade warrior.

Captain Leng looked at the ring on He Yunlu's hand and became wary of him. He didn't expect He Yunlu to have such a treasure!
He is indeed rich.

He Yunlu has the ability to kill Captain Leng.

Just now, even if it was Captain Leng, I'm afraid he might not have been able to escape.

"This kid Zhou Ping is so lucky that he actually dodged the sword." Captain Leng sighed. He thought Zhou Ping just happened to dodge the attack.

After all, the sword just now was very fast and it was impossible to dodge it easily.

Even Captain Leng himself didn't have the confidence that he could escape successfully without knowing about He Yunlu's spiritual ring.

But now he has the confidence that he can avoid the attack of the spirit ring. After all, Captain Leng knows that He Yunlu has this means.

Captain Leng believed that there was no way Zhou Ping could dodge the second sword!

Moreover, as long as he interfered with Zhou Ping even a little, Zhou Ping would surely die under the sword energy of the spirit ring.

Speaking of which, Zhou Ping has no grudges against Captain Leng.

But Wang Cheng became the chief constable and took Leng's position.

Zhou Ping provided important clues in the human trafficker case.

This is one of the conflicts between the two.

Secondly, during the tunnel trip, Zhou Ping overshadowed Captain Leng and was favored by Fan Shiyi.

Captain Leng was very jealous of Zhou Ping.

So Captain Leng also hopes that Zhou Ping will die.

Qinghe County does not allow such a powerful person to exist!
Zhou Ping put all his energy into it and used the Tianling Fa's perception range to disperse instantly.

"He actually wants to kill me!" Zhou Ping narrowed his eyes slightly.

It is a terrible thing to offend the richest man in a county.

A richest man has great power. He is rich and has connections in both the black and white worlds.

If you offend such a person, you will get yourself into a lot of trouble.

It’s hard to say what despicable means He Yunlu will use to harm Zhou Ping.

If it were in his previous life, Zhou Ping would have endured the humiliation and lived in seclusion, because he still had his parents. He didn't want to cause any trouble for them.

"I'm an orphan!" Zhou Ping has already put He Yunlu on the list of people to be killed.

Not to mention the hidden weapon just now, it was He Yunlu who killed the ghost baby and its mother.

This revenge must also be avenged.

Zhou Ping didn't know that He Yunlu was Master He.

But it's all the same.

He Yunlu once killed the ghost bride.

He Yunlu and Mr. He have killed many people, so their deaths are not a pity.

However, Zhou Ping would not kill him openly.

Zhou Ping has plenty of means!
The rouge shop was a mess.

The sword energy just now almost penetrated the house.

Liu Ruyan cried while holding the maid's body.

He Yunqing had tears in his eyes and his eyes were red.

"According to the laws of the Wei Dynasty, anyone who breaks into a private residence without reason and commits a crime can be killed without guilt," He Yunqing said to He Yunlu.

He Yunqing wished that He Yunlu would die immediately.

Such a sinful person is still living so well.

He Yunqing didn't know that the real He Yunlu had died long ago!
He Yunlu smiled and said, "Yunqing, we are a family, how can you say that we are trespassing?"

He Yunqing sneered and took out the suicide note in his hand: "Who are you and I? I am not a member of the He family!"

He Yunlu didn't know how to answer for a moment.

He Yunqing was right. According to the suicide note, she was no longer a member of the He family.

Zhou Ping was not familiar with the laws of the Wei Dynasty, but he understood what He Yunqing said.

Anyone who breaks into a private house can be killed!

This is much better than the laws of the previous life.

In previous lives, if someone broke into someone’s home, it would be easy to be charged with excessive self-defense if the homeowner resisted.

"Zhou Ping, kill him and I will give you five hundred taels!" He Yunqing said coldly.

Although He Yunqing hired Zhou Ping as a bodyguard, he did not ask him to kill people.

Now He Yunqing formally asked Zhou Ping to kill someone.

This is reasonable.

After all, it was He Yunlu who broke into a private house and killed someone.

Zhou Ping's perception range has been dispersed. He will not kill He Yunlu blatantly.

Even if I want to kill you, it's not now.

However, looking at the current situation, a war is inevitable.

Captain Leng stepped forward, ready to help. He followed He Yunlu here just to help him.

Whether it was for the He family’s money or the request of that adult.

He Yunlu took the first step and raised the ring towards Zhou Ping.

Zhou Ping turned sideways, then drew his knife and slashed at He Yunlu's arm.

Captain Leng drew his knife and blocked Zhou Ping's way.

"boom."

The long swords collided and both men took a few steps back.

He Yunlu wanted to strike out with his sword, but Zhou Ping and He Yunqing were too close.

He Yunlu was afraid of hurting He Yunqing.

After this test, Captain Leng was shocked.

Even though the previous blow was not Captain Leng's full strength, it was still easy for a ninth-rank officer to kill a tenth-rank officer with one blow.

Captain Leng knew that Zhou Ping had received the tenth level of Buddhist initiation.

"What's wrong with this kid? Could it be that he is not at the tenth level of cultivation?" Captain Leng thought of a possibility.

Could it be that Zhou Ping is of the ninth rank?
Impossible. I have practiced for many years to reach the ninth level. How could he reach the ninth level at such a young age?

Captain Leng didn't believe that Zhou Ping was a ninth-rank official, so he rushed towards Zhou Ping again.

This time, Captain Leng put all his strength into it.

"boom."

Another muffled groan.

The place where the rouge shop was located was too small to use knife skills, so the two men resorted to the simplest head-on confrontation.

In the small room, the two men had already exchanged several moves.

Zhou Ping's Xuanwu sword technique is mainly defensive, and he is more adept at using it in the house.

In comparison, Leng was slowly losing ground. "Boy, you're awesome!" Leng shouted, then discarded his knife and turned it into a dagger.

Every inch is stronger.

But inside the house, the dagger is more handy.

Captain Leng has rich combat experience and naturally knows what weapons to use to play to his strengths.

The long and the short ones collided back and forth in the room, and Zhou Ping was at a disadvantage.

After all, it is a long sword and is not suitable for fighting in a room.

The dagger gradually gained the upper hand.

Zhou Ping fought and retreated.

But Zhou Ping had not suffered any fatal injuries because Lingxi's finger had not yet touched him.

At the same time, Zhou Ping also used the perception range of the Heavenly Spirit Method to sense He Yunlu behind him.

He Yunlu has been looking for an opportunity to attack Zhou Ping.

Captain Leng saw the hope of victory and attacked more fiercely. He thought Zhou Ping could not beat him.

"Forget it, never mind!" Zhou Ping narrowed his eyes and began to ignore He Yunlu behind him.

His mind was divided into two, which somewhat affected his attacks.

Zhou Ping wanted to have a hearty fight with Captain Leng. He needed Captain Leng to hone himself.

Such an opportunity is rare. The opponent is a veteran who has experienced many battles.

Moreover, their cultivation levels are similar.

Both of them are ninth rank!

As for He Yunlu who was about to take action, Zhou Ping didn't care about him.

After all, we are in sync!

When the time comes, just use Lingxi to block it with one finger.

I should take this opportunity to have a good fight with Captain Leng.

Zhou Ping withdrew his attention from He Yunlu and then focused on dealing with Captain Leng.

Zhou Ping's swordsmanship is based on the Xuanwu sword technique, with defense as the main focus and offense as the auxiliary.

In addition to swordsmanship, Zhou Ping also practiced some boxing and kicking techniques.

The two of them kept fighting in the rouge shop.

Every move Captain Leng uses is a killing move, and he wants to kill Zhou Ping.

But Zhou Ping kept moving around and dealt with Captain Leng calmly.

Zhou Ping slowly went from being at a disadvantage in the beginning to being evenly matched with his opponent.

Although both of them are of the ninth rank, Zhou Ping’s Taoism and Buddhism are both of the ninth rank.

Judging from the spiritual energy in his body, Zhou Ping is stronger!

So after the two fought for a while, Captain Leng was sweating profusely, but Zhou Ping was still at ease and his breathing was very even.

"Go to hell!" Captain Leng also realized something was wrong.

If we continue to fight like this, I'm afraid I'll lose.

Captain Leng found an opening and stabbed Zhou Ping's crotch with his dagger.

In order to win, Captain Leng had to resort to dirty tricks.

Zhou Ping held his sword horizontally to block the dagger.

This time, Captain Leng's hands were hurt by the shock and he was even more shocked.

"My strength is not as good as his!" After the fight, Captain Leng realized that Zhou Ping's strength was comparable to his own, and even surpassed his own.

In particular, Zhou Ping used the tip of his long sword to block the dagger.

This strength shows that Zhou Ping is stronger than him.

What level of cultivation is this kid at? Captain Leng was a little mad. Could it be the eighth level?

Captain Leng began to doubt his life. He Yunlu, who was standing by, saw the right moment and sent a stream of sword energy from his spiritual ring towards Zhou Ping.

Zhou Ping had his back to He Yunlu because he was fighting with Captain Leng.

He Yunlu seized the opportunity and shot out another sword.

"Kid, go to hell!" He Yunlu said viciously. Two sword energies, nearly a thousand taels, to kill you alone.

Your death is enough! Although He Yunlu felt pain, he wanted to kill Zhou Ping even more.

In such a small county like Qinghe, He Yunlu only has eyes for a few people.

Apart from these few people, no one dared to be so disrespectful to him.

Anyone who was disrespectful to He Yunlu would be killed by He Yunlu either openly or secretly.

In He Yunlu's eyes, he is the local emperor of Qinghe County, and no one can disobey him.

Anyone who disobeys me will pay the price!
What's more, He Yunqing's matter involves his body that was subjected to soul-transferring technique, and involves his own life and death.

In the face of life and death, killing a person is nothing.

The sword energy suddenly shot out and shot towards Zhou Ping.

"Aim!" "Zhou Ping, get out of the way."

The moment He Yunlu released the sword energy, Xiaobai gave a warning.

Zhou Ping was originally fighting with Captain Leng.

After hearing Xiaobai's warning, Zhou Ping dodged without thinking.

The sword energy was originally aimed at Zhou Ping, but because Zhou Ping left, it turned towards Captain Leng.

The sword energy was too fast and Captain Leng had no time to dodge.

Although Captain Leng saw the sword energy and wanted to dodge, his body was unable to avoid it.

"what!"

Captain Leng let out a scream and then took a few steps back.

The sword energy did not hit Captain Leng's body, but swept across him.

Even so, the sword energy still took away a piece of flesh from Captain Leng's thigh.

In an instant, the white bones of Captain Leng's legs were exposed.

Blood began to spurt from Captain Leng's legs.

The aorta was punctured.

"Old He, what are you doing?" Captain Leng asked angrily.

He Yunlu was also stunned. He didn't expect Zhou Ping to dodge.

"I didn't mean to hit you." He Yunlu was about to explain when a knife was placed on his neck.

Zhou Ping put the knife on He Yunlu's neck.

He Yunlu raised his hand slightly and wanted to take action.

"I'll kill you if you move again." Zhou Ping swung his long knife and He Yunlu's neck began to bleed.

When He Yunlu saw the blood, his eyes were filled with fear.

If Zhou Ping's knife had gone in an inch further, He Yunlu would have been dead.

At this moment, the fear of death permeated He Yunlu's whole body.

He Yunlu had never experienced such a dangerous time in Qinghe County for decades, except for the two ghost incidents.

He Yunlu fell to his knees with a thud.

"Brother, don't do anything. I will give you double the amount that He Yunqing gave you!" He Yunlu's eyes were full of fear.

Although He Yunlu has spiritual energy, he has little fighting power.

Although Captain Leng is capable of fighting, he has been accidentally injured by He Yunlu.

When Captain Leng saw that the meat on his leg was gone, he hurriedly took out a pill from his bosom and swallowed it.

This pill can grow flesh from bones, and it is a reward from that lord.

The value of the elixir is also very high, at least one thousand taels of silver!
Captain Leng felt a little regretful. He shouldn't have come to the Rouge Shop with He Yunlu, a stupid teammate.

Unexpectedly, he was not injured by Zhou Ping, but by his teammates.

I was just a little bit away from being screwed.

"Sister Yunqing, should we kill her or not?" Zhou Ping turned his head and asked.

Trespassing into a private residence is a capital offense, and Zhou Ping would dare to kill as long as He Yunqing opened his mouth.

There was a look of hesitation on He Yunqing's face. Of course she wanted He Yunlu to die, but now was not the right time.

"He Yunlu, I will spare your life today, but from now on I will sever all ties with the He family!"

"You deserve to die for trespassing!"

"But my father raised me. I will spare your life today as a way of repaying my father's kindness!"

He Yunqing glanced at the dead maid Xiao Cui on the ground and said through gritted teeth.

Zhou Ping was slightly disappointed. It's better not to kill him.

However, Zhou Ping would not be so foolish as to kill someone in broad daylight.

Zhou Ping was also worried about making enemies.

There are many ways to kill He Yunlu, so there is no need to rush.

Zhou Ping put away his knife.

Zhang Sheng, who was outside the door, hurriedly helped Captain Leng away, and He Yunlu also fled in a panic.

"Zhou Ping, I will remember you!"
