I'm wandering in the world

Chapter 176 Niu Guihai's Death

At least half of the people in Toushan City know what Niu Guihai's character is.

Therefore, when he appeared, the villagers who were watching around him were all secretly worried about their savior Chen Qingyuan.

The families of the victims whose loved ones were killed by the tiger, some of the bolder and more furious ones, with flaming eyes, were secretly planning to go home to get a sickle and then go to Niu Guihai's house near dawn to cut the guy's neck.

As long as Chen Qingyuan is captured by Niu Guihai and taken to the dungeon of the Inspection Office tonight, we will definitely find weapons to rescue him!

But they didn't expect it.

Taoist Master Chen Qingyuan didn't care about Niu Guihai's identity at all. He raised his hand and roughly stuffed a thick black thing into his mouth...

Niu Guihai's head was buzzing.

The thing stuffed into his mouth was as cold as iron and extremely hard. Judging from the Taoist's fearless look, it must be some kind of deadly weapon.

He was slightly panicked, took a step back, opened his mouth to break free of the iron lump, and said angrily: "Do you know who the prosecutor of Quanzhou Prefecture is to me? He is my uncle! A legitimate official of the seventh rank, and I am an inspector, a ninth rank, also a member of the officialdom..."

Chen Qingyuan remained calm.

Niu Guihai thought to himself: Could it be that I have hit a wall? Even my uncle, who is a seventh-rank official, has been brought up!
He thought that Taoist Chen Qingyuan didn't understand the official ranks in the imperial court, so he offered to explain it to him so that he could know the majesty of the officials!

Sun Datong was worried about something happening and wanted to stop things from getting worse.

Chen Qingyuan stretched out his hand to stop him, and said with a smile: "I can kill demons and monsters, and I can also kill human monsters."

He took a step forward and put the Black Star pistol back into Niu Guihai's newly opened mouth. He looked around and then at the soldiers behind him. He said loudly, "I always leave a way out when I do things. Niu Guihai is a civil servant of the imperial court. Not only is he greedy for credit, but he is also greedy and wants to kill innocent people to take credit! This is a heinous crime. He treated me like this. You can imagine how much injustice the local people must have suffered..."

Someone among the people standing around shouted, "That's right, Niu Guihai is a beast. He always humiliates us and looks down on us!"

Chen Qingyuan continued, "Before I take action, I want to ask if there are any accomplices of Niu Guihai. If you want to protect Niu Guihai, please stand up now, so as not to miss the opportunity to perform meritorious service in front of him."

The words just fell.

The soldiers drew out their long swords from their waists, pointed at Chen Qingyuan and shouted, "Evil Taoist, put down the black lump in your hand immediately. If you attack the ninth-rank official, I guarantee you will lose your head..."

Their faces were extremely gloomy. They had followed Niu Guihai for more than half a year. Every time Niu Guihai exploited the people, he ate meat and they always got to drink some soup.

If Niu Guihai died, what kind of soup would Sun Datong, who only knew how to fight, have? Would he have to rely on the fish, shrimps and mountain products from these stinky people every day?

The Taoist priest in red standing behind the soldier took a step forward, then thought something was wrong and secretly took another step back, even moving closer to the onlookers.

The Taoist boasted that he had been practicing Taoism since childhood and had made considerable achievements in his cultivation.

But he had not yet reached the point where he could carry a musket with his body! He recognized at a glance that the black lump in Chen Qingyuan's hand was a small musket. Some blond and blue-eyed people from overseas had this kind of gun in their hands, but it was not as exquisite as the one in Chen Qingyuan's hand.

Look at the situation.

If this gun can't fire continuously, stand up!

If he could fire continuously, he would hide among the people and wait for an opportunity to leave...

Are you kidding? If Niu Guihai, who invited him here, died, who could stop this young Taoist from going on a killing spree? Killing one person is killing, killing two people is also killing...

bump! ! !
A gunshot rang out... A hole appeared on the back of Niu Guihai's head. He slowly fell down with his eyes wide open. He died very quickly without any pain.

After Chen Qingyuan fired the gun, he was also stunned. He thought to himself, "Oh no! He didn't even shoot this guy in the limbs a few times first, so that the people in Toushan City who had been oppressed by Niu Guihai for a long time could vent their anger...

I am still too young, I act impulsively and don’t think things through carefully.

The shot killed Niu Guihai, and the scene instantly became quiet.

Even though the people were furious, they did not dare to engage in direct confrontation. They just wanted to do it secretly in the dead of night. They did not expect that Niu Guihai, who had just returned less than a quarter of an hour ago, would become a corpse.

Swish!
Swish!
Swish!
Sun Datong reacted and drew his sword immediately, but the tip of the sword was not pointing at Chen Qingyuan, but at Niu Guihai's trusted men!
Chen Qingyuan impulsively killed Niu Guihai, the second-in-command of the Inspection Department.

Kill them all.

It was impossible for Sun Datong to arrest Chen Qingyuan, the savior of the entire city, so he could only act decisively and draw his sword to protect Chen Qingyuan.

He shouted loudly, "Niu Guihai had ulterior motives. He colluded with the Japanese pirates in secret, trying to destroy the peace of Toushan City and let them come ashore to slaughter us! Now he has been caught by all of us. Because the situation is urgent, he has been executed on the spot! His trusted subordinates are resisting stubbornly. What do you think we should do, folks?"

When the people heard this, some smart people immediately realized what Sun Datong was doing and immediately agreed: "Niu Guihai secretly communicated with the Japanese pirates, and his heart is worthy of death. We must not tolerate such a person! Kill, kill, kill!"

The tiger only killed a dozen people.

The Japanese pirates killed hundreds of people!

All deserve to die!
Sun Datong also had his own cronies, who at this moment ran out from the inspection office behind him, holding muskets loaded with ammunition and ready to aim at these people.

Sun Datong raised his long sword and ordered: "Fight!"

Flames spewed out of the muzzle of the musket and smoke filled the air.

Several of Niu Guihai's henchmen, armed with long knives, rushed halfway when they fell to the ground and wailed...

The development of firearms in this era was relatively good, but their power still needed to be improved. Unless they hit the head or heart directly, the person who was hit would still wail on the ground for a while...

Sun Datong looked at these people wearing inspection uniforms, a trace of regret and pain in his eyes, and swung the long knife across their necks to end their suffering.

He suddenly discovered that the Taoist in red had disappeared at some point.

Running really fast...

The confidants came to deal with the body, and they touched the body as a by-product. One of them found a letter with crooked words on it from Niu Guihai's body.

He handed the letter to Sun Datong and said, "There is a letter, but I can't read the words."

Anyone who can be the supervisor of the Inspection Department must know a few words, otherwise it would be funny if they couldn't understand some of the orders in the correspondence...

After Sun Datong became an inspector, he continued to study and often went to the neighboring Hui'an County to ask the teachers there for advice. Gradually, he accumulated a lot of knowledge...

He recognized Niu Guihai's handwriting from the letter at a glance, because this guy only went to school for half a year when he was a child, and then completely gave up learning. His handwriting was as bad as a dog's, with many mistakes.

There was no text on the cover of the letter. When he opened it and saw all kinds of ghostly words, he forced himself to identify the wrong characters. Sun Datong was furious! This was a letter to the Japanese pirates! He just said it anxiously to save Chen Qingyuan, but he didn't expect it to come true...
