Confucian and Taoist scholar

Chapter 157 Vulnerable

When Zhang Bo and his companions heard the noise, they were all excited and directly climbed over the wall into the village.

As soon as they entered the village, they ran into several bandits.

Both sides were stunned for a moment, and then they couldn't tell who attacked first, and then there was a flash of sword.

Li Zhao looked excited, his hand holding the sword was shaking a little, and he directly fought with a bandit.

Zhang Bo held a long sword in his hand, flashed his body, and killed a man cleanly and neatly.

He moved quickly again and reached out to help his companion.

"The sage said, 'A scholar must be broad-minded and resolute, for the responsibility is heavy and the road is long. To take benevolence as one's own responsibility is not a heavy one? To wait until death is not a long way to go?'"

Zhang Bo spoke slowly, exuding a literary air.

Li Zhao and the other two were all affected. They were in high spirits, their eyes excited but also a little calm, and they were no longer so nervous when dealing with these bandits.

"The Master said..."

Li Zhao recited Confucian classics and drew his sword without hesitation.

In the past, he had learned swordsmanship from his father, but there were few places where he could use it, so he just took it as a way to keep fit.

Now it finally comes in handy and I can show my skills.

In just a few breaths, someone fell under his sword.

Murder... A thought flashed through Li Zhao's mind.

But before he had time to feel it, he joined the battle again.

On the other side, Lu Zheng floated into the yard.

At a glance, there were five living people in the yard.

Scarface held a big knife in his hand and stepped heavily. The aura of his whole body surged, and strands of bloody murderous energy emerged, and actually condensed into a phantom around him.

The blood-colored shadow was filled with fierce momentum, and it was the image of a bear.

The big man growled, and swung his bloody sword. The bloody evil energy turned into a big net that covered Lu Zheng.

Next to him, a man raised his hand and threw an iron ball, which flew towards Lu Zheng.

A short and thin old man took out a short crossbow and shot an arrow, blocking Lu Zheng's retreat.

A loud thunder suddenly rose from the ground and exploded in front of Lu Zheng, and smoke quickly filled the air.

Several people stared at where Lu Zheng was.

The next moment, a light breeze blew, and Lu Zheng's figure emerged, standing there intact.

Several people stared, and saw a scroll of bamboo slips appear in front of Lu Zheng.

A sentence was floating on the bamboo slip, with four small characters glowing brightly: As still as a mountain.

“It is swift as the wind, quiet as the forest, aggressive as fire, still as a mountain, unpredictable as the shadow, and powerful as thunder.”

The entire paragraph of text turned into starlight and sank into Lu Zheng's body.

Scarface was horrified. Even though he had seen some big scenes, he was still afraid of the unknown and death when facing the young man in front of him.

In a flash, Lu Zheng disappeared from the spot.

Scarface was inexplicably frightened and subconsciously raised his knife to block.

A flash of sword light passed by, and the big knife in his hand was cut into two pieces.

A tiger shadow suddenly appeared, accompanied by an angry roar.

Scarface felt a sharp pain in his abdomen and flew backwards, hitting the stone wall directly.

The blood-red bear shadow on his body was shattered by Lu Zheng's punch and could no longer be reassembled.

"Ugh..."

Scarface couldn't help but open his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood.

He fell down the wall in a mess, his blood circulation was blocked and he couldn't get up immediately.

The four people next to him were horrified. The boss was at the third level of martial arts and was stronger than them.

As a result, Lu Zheng, a Confucian and Taoist scholar, beat the man so hard that he couldn't get up.

You are a scholar, but your martial arts skills are so terrifying. Isn’t it a bit exaggerated?

When did such a young man appear in Changchuan County? How come they didn’t know about it?
When one person saw Lu Zheng's skills and heard shouts and screams coming from outside, he knew that there must be more than one person coming to the village.

He couldn't help but feel timid and took a step forward quietly, wanting to escape.

However, Lu Zheng has been paying attention to the situation around him.

Sensing someone's unusual movement, Lu Zheng swung the sword in his hand without hesitation.

The long sword turned into a stream of light and stabbed the man through on the spot.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Zheng rushed towards the scarred man.

The big man was startled and quickly struggled to jump up.

"Kill him, or no one will survive!"

The big man said sternly, then threw a blood-colored talisman at Lu Zheng.

A stream of poisonous blood rushed towards Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng felt that there was something special about this blood energy, so instead of resisting it directly, he dodged to the side.

The big man was able to catch his breath and put some distance between himself and Lu Zheng.

Just then, some bandits rushed in from outside the yard.

Sharp arrows and spears were as dense as rain, flying towards Lu Zheng at a rapid speed.

As Lu Zheng thought about it, a small mountain shadow emerged.

The speed of the arrows and spears shot towards me suddenly decreased.

Then, Lu Zheng waved his hand, and arrows and spears fell to the ground.

Lu Zheng raised his hand again, and a sun condensed in the palm of his hand.

The daylight suddenly released a brilliant light, more dazzling than the sun in the sky.

The gangsters present had no time to avoid the fierce white light.

Suddenly, I felt a white screen in front of my eyes, and everything around me was white.

"Ah, my eyes!"

"Hiss, it's so hot..."

...Some people felt a stinging pain in their eyes and couldn't help but shed tears.

Some people feel like there is fire burning in their bodies and roll on the ground in pain.

For a while, there were endless wailing and groaning sounds.

These bandits who rushed over had all suffered injuries during the day and suddenly had no fighting power left.

Lu Zheng has reached the third level of Confucianism and Taoism, and has become more adept at controlling the sun, stars, mountains and rivers.

This daytime bomb is not very powerful and will not produce fireworks to kill these people.

However, based on the evil energy in these people's bodies, it will burn their bodies and souls, and destroy their spiritual realm.

The scarred man felt that his martial arts energy and blood were being eliminated by a powerful force, and he was suddenly shocked.

He hurriedly reached into his storage bag with trembling hands and quickly took out a talisman to activate it.

This was the escape talisman he had bought from a Taoist priest before, who said it could allow him to escape at least one mile away.

There was no way. The methods Lu Zheng displayed were too powerful. If he didn't run, he would probably die here.

The talisman was activated, and a mysterious power enveloped him.

The next moment, the big man disappeared from the spot.

However, in just a blink of an eye, the man's figure reappeared in the original place.

He was stunned for a moment and didn't understand what was going on.

However, he didn't know that he was also infected with Lu Zheng's righteous spirit, which directly stopped his actions.

"Where do you want to go, sir?"

Lu Zheng's voice slowly reached the big man's ears.

The man's heart skipped a beat and he quickly ran out of the yard.

Unfortunately, he didn't run far before he suddenly felt something binding him.

When he looked down, he found that it was a rope emitting a strange force that tied him up tightly.

The man couldn't break free and was dragged back to the yard by Lu Zheng.

"Who are you? Why are you attacking us? I can give you whatever you want..."

The scarred man spoke quickly, not knowing when he had offended this person.

Lu Zheng's expression was calm. He had heard these words so many times that he was too lazy to pay attention to the other party.

He simply stretched out his hand and pressed on the man's dantian, and a burst of righteous energy blasted out.

"Ah..."

The big man felt a sharp pain in his abdomen and glared at Lu Zheng with his teeth bared. His expression kept changing, and there was an unconcealable hatred in it.

After years of practice, it was completely destroyed by a young man.

Not far away, someone staggered to his feet, wanting to leave this place of trouble.

Lu Zheng walked over quickly and lightly.

The short and thin middle-aged man had blurred vision and vaguely saw Lu Zheng coming towards him with great momentum.

He trembled with fear, his voice trembling, and said, "Don't kill me, I'll tell you a big secret!"

As he spoke, the middle-aged man knelt down on the ground.

"Tell me about it?" Lu Zheng said lightly.

"Can you spare my life?" asked the middle-aged man.

Lu Zheng narrowed his eyes, raised his foot and kicked the middle-aged man, shattering his dantian.

The middle-aged man felt as if struck by lightning. He curled up in pain and let out a faint groan.

Lu Zheng didn't even look at the man, walked over to get his sword back, and then disabled the other people in the yard.

There was also the sound of fighting coming from a part of the village.

Lu Zheng jumped onto the roof and took a quick glance to find that Zhang Bo and his men were still fighting with some bandits.

It seems that Zhang Bo and his men are more than capable of dealing with those ordinary bandits, and there is no need for him to go over for help.

Lu Zheng retracted his gaze, then pulled Qing Wan out and warned, "Watch them here. If anyone dares to move, use these papers to deal with them."

Lu Zheng took out some cultural treasures and gave them to Qing Wan.

Seeing this, Qing Wan nodded excitedly, indicating that she could complete the task.

"Where is the place where people are being held captive?" Lu Zheng asked.

Qing Wan pointed with her little hand, "Over there, right below that room, the pig is there too!"

"it is good."

Lu Zheng jumped a few times and quickly came into the room.

At this time, a pig-headed human-shaped monster just crawled out of a passage.

The pig demon heard some noise and wanted to come out to see what was going on.

When the pig demon saw Lu Zheng, he was stunned and asked in a rough voice, "Are you new here? What happened outside? Why is there such a noise?"

The monster never thought that anyone would attack the village. He just thought there was some party going on outside, so it was a little noisy.

Without saying anything, Lu Zheng raised his hand and slashed at the pig demon with his sword.

The pig demon was already alert and quickly dodged.

It quickly pulled out a scimitar from its waist and said, "How rude of you, little bastard! You dare to attack Grandpa Pig? Don't you know I'm the boss here?"

"Ok?"

A fierce look flashed across Lu Zheng's eyes.

He put away his sword and rushed towards the pig demon with big strides.

Suddenly, there were sounds of smashing and smashing in the room, mixed with indistinct roars of beasts.

"Ahhh... I was wrong, I was wrong, you are the master, please spare my life!"

After a burst of ghostly howling, the whole room finally quieted down.

Lu Zheng shook his hands to get rid of the dirt on them.

In front of him, the pig demon was lying there half-dead, twitching from time to time, covered in blood, and the two large fangs in his mouth were broken.
