Eternal Sword

Chapter 69: Burning Qingyun Tower

Chen Tang kept swinging his sword, relying on his copper skin and body skills to avoid vital points as much as possible and prevent himself from getting injured and bleeding.

Combined with the burning wooden knife in the divine state, he killed his way in and out of the crowd!

The sounds of fighting, screams, and the clashing of swords...one after another.

Chen Tang's eyes were bloodshot. In the darkness, he could only see shadows of people and the flashing of knives.

After killing so much, he felt exhausted despite his physical strength.

A breath of divine light has been exhausted.

His clothes had been chopped to shreds in the chaos of the fight, and his body was covered with many wounds of varying depths.

However, these wounds did not bleed too much.

The shallow ones only leave white marks on the surface of the copper.

Although the wound was deep and broke through the copper skin, it only left a faint trace of blood and had little impact.

I don't know how long it was before Chen Tang slashed at the air with his knife. His body was out of control and he rushed forward, staggering.

Chen Tang was covered in blood. He held the knife and looked around, but there was no one standing around him.

The remaining members of the Black Water Gang had already fled to the outside of the county government office, not daring to look back.

Chen Tang looked up and saw Qingyun Tower nearby.

Before he knew it, he had fought his way back to Qingyun Tower from the backyard of the county government!
Chen Tang let out a long breath and shook his head.

After the great battle, he was exhausted, thirsty, tired and hungry.

He licked his lips, picked up the bloody long knife, and walked into Qingyun Tower.

On the wine table on the first floor, there was a mess of cups and plates, with some wine and meat on it.

Chen Tang didn't dare to drink the Tianshen Houer wine, for fear of getting drunk and causing trouble. He just grabbed some cooked meat, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it a few times and swallowed it.

He picked up the jar of wine next to him, broke the mud seal, tilted his head back and drank it all down!
He usually drinks Tianshen Houer wine, which has helped him develop a good alcohol tolerance.

This kind of ordinary strong liquor can hardly make him drunk.

"happy!"

Chen Tang drank half a jar of wine in one breath before stopping. He grinned and exhaled, then threw the jar in his hand against the wall!

Then he stepped forward and kicked around, breaking all the jars of fine wine placed in the corner of the first floor into pieces.

The wine spilled all over the floor.

Chen Tang picked up a tinder and threw it on the wine.

The flames caught fire quickly when they came into contact with the wine and soon spread around.

Chen Tang left Qingyun Tower and headed towards the backyard of the county government.

Not long after, they arrived at the place where they fought with Cui Zhao.

Cui Zhao was kicked unconscious by him and was put into a sack. He hadn't woken up yet and was lying on the ground motionless.

Chen Tang went over, untied the sack and took a look. After making sure that the person had not been replaced, he picked up the sack and put it on his back.

He looked back.

Qingyun Tower was already engulfed in flames.

I wonder how much of the people's money was embezzled to build such a luxurious restaurant in the county government office.

Burn it with fire, out of sight, out of mind.

Of course, this fire was also the signal he and Meng Liangyu agreed upon.

Chen Tang took a few steps, saw the mark left on the wall, changed direction and walked to the other side.

……

The county government backyard.

Under the protection of Meng Liangyu and his men, County Magistrate Sun hid in a simple woodshed. Hearing the faint sounds of fighting coming from outside, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.

"Xiao Meng, this time it's all thanks to you."

Magistrate Sun was still terrified and said, "Fortunately you reacted quickly, otherwise that villain would have taken my life."

Meng Liangyu smiled and said, "Sir, this is what we should do."

Magistrate Sun said: "I don't know where the Wolf Gang found this murderer. He actually dared to kill people in the county government office. He is really lawless!"

"After today, no matter how many members of the Evil Wolf Gang are left, I will definitely wipe them all out! Xiao Meng, the credit will be yours then. I'll put in a few good words for you, and the position of the county lieutenant of Changze County will probably be yours."

Meng Liangyu smiled and said, "Thank you very much, sir."

Everyone hid here for a while, and the shouting and screaming outside became smaller and smaller, and finally quieted down.

"It seems to be over?"

Magistrate Sun asked. "It should be."

Meng Liangyu looked at the blazing fire in the distance outside the window and said, "The room here is drafty and it's freezing outside. You can't hide here all night."

"I'll take some people out to check. If there's no danger, I'll come back and send you back home."

"Ah."

Magistrate Sun nodded subconsciously.

Meng Liangyu stood up and motioned Tiezhu and others to leave with him.

Magistrate Sun seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly grabbed Meng Liangyu's sleeve and whispered: "Xiao Meng, let them go and see, you, you stay here to protect me..."

Meng Liangyu said: "Sir, this place is extremely remote, no one will come here."

"Well, then you should stay too. I'll feel at ease when you're here with me."

Magistrate Sun refused to let go of Meng Liangyu's clothes, his voice trembling slightly, and he was obviously frightened by the previous scene.

Meng Liangyu smiled and said, "Okay, Tiezhu, you guys go check out Qingyun Tower, and leave this to me."

"As ordered."

The yamen runners received the order and left.

The woodshed became quiet again.

For some reason, even with Meng Liangyu guarding him, County Magistrate Sun still felt a little uneasy and his eyelids were twitching.

Magistrate Sun couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Meng, do you think the murderer will find his way here?"

"will not."

Meng Liangyu said: "Unless someone left him some clues or marks."

"what?"

After hearing what Meng Liangyu said, County Magistrate Sun became even more frightened.

Is there any traitor in the government?
Yan Ji is very close to the Wolf Gang, will he...

Just as he was daydreaming, footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door.

The speed was neither fast nor slow, but the direction was straight towards this place!

Magistrate Sun stared at the entrance of the room with his eyes wide open. He subconsciously grabbed Meng Liangyu's arm with both hands and didn't dare to breathe.

There was a squeak.

The door was pushed open.

A tall figure appeared at the door, carrying a sack on his back and holding a long knife in his hand. His features could not be seen clearly, but the bloody smell was overwhelming. County Magistrate Sun was almost frightened to faint!

The tall figure walked straight towards this side.

"Xiao, Xiao, Xiao Meng..."

Magistrate Sun trembled and quickly pushed Meng Liangyu.

Meng Liangyu looked at the person who came and asked, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay, just a little injury."

The person came said.

After hearing this conversation, County Magistrate Sun was almost stunned.

Before he could react, Meng Liangyu pushed him out and said, "I'll leave the person to you."

Magistrate Sun staggered in front of Chen Tang. He looked up and met Chen Tang's eyes full of murderous intent. He was so scared that his legs went limp and he sat down on the ground, his lower body wet.

By this time, he still didn't understand what was happening.

Chen Tang stepped forward and kicked Magistrate Sun, knocking him unconscious. He then took out a rope and tied him up.

Then a piece of rag was stuffed into his mouth and put into the sack.

Chen Tang asked, "You stayed with him for the last time. What would you say if someone asks you about it in the future?"

"Easy to say."

Meng Liangyu shrugged and said, "Let's say we encountered each other. I couldn't defeat you, so Magistrate Sun and I could only escape. Although there was an incident, it was not a big problem."

"Then I can push your identity onto the Blackwater Gang to confuse people and put the blame on them."

Chen Tang nodded and said, "Such a shocking case happened in the county government office, and many officials died. The Qian Kingdom will definitely not sit idly by. Both the Black Water Gang and the Evil Wolf Gang are involved."

This was exactly what the two had planned.

Chen Tang can settle his personal vendetta tonight.

At the same time, there was bloodshed in the county government office, with countless casualties. The cause was a fight between two major gangs. The impact was too bad, and the court would never sit idly by!
If we could use the power of the Qian Kingdom court to wipe out the Black Water Gang, that would naturally be the best outcome.
