All the evil beasts in the world, I feed on demons and monsters

Chapter 151: White Water Poison Disaster (Part ) (Three-in-One)

There was a drizzle, and the nobleman on the tall horse suddenly raised his head, his pair of small eyes filled with sinisterness in his pale face!

Without saying anything, he raised the whip directly——

Snapped!
A strong wind blew, and a phantom of a sparrow suddenly flew out from County Magistrate Song’s patch and knocked the horsewhip away!

"Dog slave!"

"You're courting death! You're going against Prince Zai and Dajing!"

The fat man was furious and drew his sword!

Miso miso miso! !

Behind the fat man, all the Zhengbai Banner cavalrymen drew their swords!

The raindrops hit the sharp blade, and under the reflection of the orange-red firelight, it looked like a blade boiling with hot blood!
But County Magistrate Song took a step forward!
"Sir, you are the prince's personal guard, of high rank and noble descent."

"But according to Dajing law, I have no right to order an official appointed by the imperial court! If the imperial court really insists on doing so, please ask for my dismissal!"

"If there is no imperial decree, then as long as I, Song, live, no one will dare to touch this rice field!"

County Magistrate Song said this with a cold face and gritted his teeth! He looked up and stared at the fat man's face!
"Inverted!!"

"Mr. Song, you are looking for death!"

Da da da!
Behind him, more than a dozen cavalrymen spread out like a fan and surrounded County Magistrate Song!
Whoa!

But at this moment, behind County Magistrate Song, countless young and strong men stepped forward! The desperate rescue efforts that night had activated a trace of blood in these numb people, and it had not yet cooled down.

The rain soaked through the ragged clothes of those people. They were almost unarmed, but nearly ten thousand young and strong men moved at this moment!
It's like a huge black wave boiling in the night rain!

The dozen or so knights were like white boats on black water, swaying precariously.

"You...you guys!"

"You bunch of troublemakers! Fine, fine, fine!"

"County Magistrate Song, let's wait and see!"

Looking at the densely packed young men, the fat man from the Zhengbai Banner had an extremely ugly expression on his face and turned away.

Da da da!
The sound of horse hooves came quickly and went away quickly.

The behavior of these people showed that they were of the same mind as the county magistrate.

No one wants to grow poppies! This is understandable. As one of the few areas in Tianjin suitable for rice cultivation, the sales of grain have always been very good. After paying taxes, it is enough to support the whole family.

If we grow poppies, what will we eat?
You don't really expect that the court will give you food if you hand over the poppies, do you?

The common people know better than anyone what the character of the current imperial court is like.

Ji Ran looked at County Magistrate Song, whose face was swollen.

This was a wise man with a firm resolve. Did the knights of the Plain White Banner really dare to openly kill officials? What a joke! Did they really think it was still the early days of the invasion, where swords could speak the truth? Currently, the powerful ministers who commanded the army were mostly Han Chinese.

Besides, Prince Zai's intention to plant poppies couldn't be made public. The ban on planting was, after all, an order from the late emperor, and Governor Lin still had many disciples and followers in the court.

This is not something that can be put on the table for discussion.

"Everyone go back."

Magistrate Song watched the white cavalry disappear into the night, waved his hand, and said, "We've sent people down the mountain to make ginger soup and hot porridge. The warriors who are guarding the river today will come to the government office tomorrow to receive half a bushel of rice!"

There were bursts of surprised noises from the crowd!
Half a dou of white rice is not a small amount for a family! If this white rice is replaced with brown rice, it will be enough for the family to eat for a long time.

Soon, some old and strong villagers and the police officers organized a team and asked everyone to leave.

Ji Ran followed the crowd and soon found Li Yan at the foot of the mountain, who was holding a bowl of hot porridge but was hesitant to swallow it.

"Tai Sui Ye!"

Li Yan walked up quickly and asked, "Is this... is this edible?"

He didn't forget where he was!
He had no idea if the food given by this evil spirit was edible. But it wouldn't be appropriate to throw it away, as the evil spirits around him were devouring it. Aren't you afraid of causing more trouble if you throw it away?
Ji Ran picked it up, looked at it, and said, "Eat it."

"White rice, just a little stale."

He finished speaking and looked around. At this moment, as the rain and fog dissipated, some vague boundaries appeared in front of him.

Now, I should be able to go out.

"After drinking the porridge, walk outside and go out directly."

"it is good."

Li Yan agreed, watched Ji Ran drink a bowl of ginger soup, then turned and walked towards the mountain.

"Tai Sui Ye, what are you doing?"

"I'll go to the riverbank and take a look."

"I'll come with you!"

"Need not."

Ji Ran looked at Li Yan who was catching up with him, reached out and tapped his head, saying, "You are a spirit now, and your body is not much stronger than an ordinary person. Go out and go to the county government office to see if my body is there."

"it is good!"

Ji Ran only said this to let Li Yan go. If time was distorted by these countless "spirits" here, then he would probably not be able to find his body when he returned to reality because the time was different.

Walking up the hillside where there is no more flowing water.

Ji Ran turned around and glanced behind him. The men there were noisy and excited. The women and elderly people around them who were boiling ginger soup and white rice all showed a hint of joy.

There were children running around, sneaking up to the adults to line up.

The lights of the distant county town grew brighter as the rain subsided. Baishui County, thanks to its geographical advantages, is less prone to harvest failures. Therefore, people here live better than in other places, and most people have enough to eat.

Just being able to eat enough is the biggest luxury for the people in this era.

In the night, you can see the farmland not far away. The crops are densely packed, and the rice ears are drooping. After the rainstorm, they are still upright and tenacious. Just like these people who struggle in the land, they are as easy to survive as weeds.

Ji Ran took out a branch, wiped the shoulder where County Magistrate Song had patted him, and began to perform the Caged Bird technique.

After a while, the branch fell down and Ji Ran stepped on the words.

"Ah."

He just sneered, walked up the hillside and headed towards the dam.

……

A light rain pelted the trees, filling them with a fresh, grassy fragrance. A dozen knights, still riding horses, hid in the woods not far from the dam.

"Old Four, did you bring the Thunderbolt?"

"Report to the captain! I have it!"

As the knight spoke, he took out several oil-paper packages from his horse's saddlebag. He opened them and found black balls with long fuses inside.

Hand-thrown bombs, considered the most advanced individual firearms, were equipped by Prince Zai to his personal guards. Unlike firearms, which many Eight Banners soldiers considered little more powerful than bows and arrows, the Thunderbolt was universally recognized as formidable.

Especially when facing a large number of rioters, throwing one down can instantly blow up a large area!

"it is good!"

"Now, go cut down the wooden stakes that support the embankment. Use all your thunderbolts! Blow this embankment down!"

In the drizzle, a ferocious look appeared on the fat man's face, and a coldness permeated his green eyes.

"Master...Master Zuoling, is this really okay?"

A knight nearby trembled and said, "The flood has already come up. If it breaks through the embankment now, it might not just be a breach, but the entire embankment will collapse!"

"The entire Baishui County will be flooded..."

Snapped!
"what!"

The swinging whip dripped blood in the air.

The cavalryman who spoke covered his face tightly with his hands. There was a wound with flesh torn apart, and blood was splattering out, almost soaking the knight's entire face!

"Bastard thing!"

"Whose bowl are you eating from?!"

The fat man stared coldly at the knight and said, "Now our Dajing Dynasty is in turmoil, and the treasury is empty!"

"The prince is now responsible for the whole country. How can he do anything without money?"

"Remember this! In your eyes, there can only be one sun, the prince!"

"Aren't these troublemakers happy? Then go back to growing rice underground! Perfect, then die!"

"Let's just arrange for our own people to plant it!"

The cruel look in the fat man's eyes made the knight lower his head, letting the blood drip, not daring to say another word.

"go!"

The fat man waved his whip and the group immediately rode away!

Da da da!
The sound of galloping horses' hooves was particularly obvious in the night, but the dense forests on the hillside here were far away from the county town, so this group of people acted recklessly and headed straight for the embankment they had met before.

However, when a group of cavalry appeared in front of the embankment, the fat man waved his hand suddenly!

His expression was slightly ugly and unexpected.

At this moment, several oil-paper and linen tents appeared in front of the dam! In the drizzling rain, even the tents placed on high ground were soaked in mud.

wow-

The people inside obviously heard the noise, but the people who came out made the fat man's face look even more gloomy.

He was wearing a dark blue official robe with a patch of a sparrow pattern on it. It was none other than County Magistrate Song. He hadn't left yet!

Moreover, he is still guarding here on the riverbank!

"Ok?"

Magistrate Song had apparently just woken up, and upon seeing the White Banner cavalry appear, he was stunned. From the tents behind him, officials in black robes emerged one after another.

"Why are you here!"

The fat man spoke coldly, but he made a gesture behind him, and all the cavalrymen silently put their hands in the bags containing the short spears.

"I am here to monitor the riverbank to prevent any mistakes on this rainy night. But—"

As County Magistrate Song was speaking, his eyes suddenly widened, and the last bit of sleepiness he had left disappeared in an instant!
He is a smart man! His presence here was a temporary decision made after the flood, and no one knew about it.

This captain of the Zhengbai Banner is definitely not looking for me!

County Magistrate Song instantly understood what this group of people were doing! He glared at them with anger! He didn't try to escape or play dumb.

On this rainy night, the elderly man, his hair and beard standing on end, roared angrily, "How dare you do this!!!"

"Take the knife!"

"Guard the riverbank!!"

The officers behind him panicked, but immediately went into the tent to get their swords, which shows the prestige of County Magistrate Song.

"Humph!"

The fat man raised his head, saw this and stopped pretending, and raised his hand!

brush!
All the knights behind him picked up their spears!

"Stubborn."

His expression was cruel, and he didn't take these ordinary people seriously at all. He said, "If you, a dog slave, don't wait to die in the county government office, then I can only send you on your way!"

Whoosh whoosh—

As the fat man lowered his hand, more than a dozen short spears shot out instantly, covering the position of County Magistrate Song!

"Chirp!"

A clear cry came from County Magistrate Song's body, and a white sparrow appeared behind him, spreading its wings!
But the thin dragon and tiger energy was obviously unable to defend against such a short spear!
Bang! ! !
He just watched the sharp spear flying towards him and stopped one foot away from County Magistrate Song!
The remaining dozen or so short spears suddenly disappeared when they flew in front of County Magistrate Song, and then stabbed into the mud behind him with a "puff puff" sound.

A figure in wet white clothes suddenly appeared among the crowd.

He grasped a short spear in his left hand, twisted his fingers, and flipped the spear tip. "I've been building this dam bit by bit, and you bastards want to blow it up?"

“There’s no door.”

The figure turned around and faced a dozen knights, and light rain dripped along the tip of the spear towards the front!
boom!
He raised his hand, and the dripping rain gathered in his right hand, turning into a huge axe, which was held tightly in his hand!
It’s Ji Ran!

["Yuan Xiong" has been recorded as a hunter, and the current recording time is 1/2. ]

[Gained expertise: Battle Axe Master 7%, Hong Quan Expertise 12%]

[Yuan Xiong's remaining time: three months]

My soul has entered the realm, and all the abilities that rely on the body are no longer usable. However, the control of space can be used! The incense and spiritual treasures can be used!
"who!"

"The one who will kill you."

Whoosh!
The short spear shot towards the fat man like lightning!

"court death!"

The fat man didn't avoid it at all, but just sneered at Ji Ran with a cruel and arrogant look in his eyes!
How dare a mere commoner attack a dignified fourth-rank lieutenant like him?
"Roar!!!"

The wind is blowing!

The cold rain was blown away by the strong wind! The shadow of a white-browed tiger with hanging eyes roared up from the fat man!

A peak level 2 aura suddenly enveloped him!
The ferocious tiger was so powerful that the shadow's claws lightly brushed against the tough horse armor, tearing it apart directly!
The fat man looked at him coldly!

His dragon-tiger energy had never been broken by any long-range means! Unless it was a guardian deity of the same level, or a foreigner's exotic treasure! Ordinary spears, bows, and arrows, and even firearms, were useless to him!
The short spear pierced through the rain and fog, and the tiger raised its huge claws and slapped down hard!

Pfft!

slam-la-

Apart from the sound of rain, all other sounds around were silenced, and one could only see the rain washing away the blood on the tip of the silver spear.

"Uh uh uh……"

The fat man stared blankly ahead, the thick wooden pole in his mouth shattering all his teeth! His entire head was instantly pierced through!

[Dethroned Dragon: The dragon and tiger energy of the temple, the luck of the court, and the status will be invalidated when facing this title.]

The huge white tiger struggled and roared, but it was visibly disintegrating.

boom!
The fat man tilted his body, covered in white armor, and fell heavily into the dirty mud!
At this moment, different animals suddenly appeared on the bodies of the remaining dozen or so knights!

There are crows, black bears, goshawks, and elk!
These animals are not dragon and tiger qi! Instead, they are the true spirits of wild beasts worshipped by the Jurchen shamans!
"Ah."

boom!
Ji Ran's figure disappeared instantly!

"Be careful!!"

These flag bearers roared from their horses and raised their scimitars!

Bang! ! !
A flagman at the very edge suddenly had his head grabbed by a big hand!

Ji Ran seemed to appear in front of him out of thin air! The moment he grabbed his face, the huge axe slashed down towards his neck!

"Roar!!"

Behind him, a giant bear roared! And on Ji Ran's forehead, a faint green light burst out! The giant bear's movement immediately stagnated -

Pfft!

The warm blood flowed from his right shoulder to his left hip, splitting him in two! On the Lingxi Axe, a black bear's inscription appeared!

The law——

Ji Ran turned sideways and sat on the bloody saddle! He immediately pulled out a short spear with his left hand!

Whoosh!
The short spear shot out, heading straight for a flagman in front! The other party now raised a small round shield sideways, hunched his body, and pushed his arms forward, almost hiding himself behind the shield!
Airtight!

puff!
But the next moment, a scarlet short spear shot out from behind him! The moment the short spear approached the shield, it suddenly disappeared and appeared behind the shield!
A moose howled and disappeared behind the flag bearer.

Within ten steps, time and space are at your will!
Unless one has mastered the domain at level 4, or has also refined the boundary, facing such a force of time and space, one will be extremely exhausted, or even helpless!

This is also the power of the most precious prop in the universe!
"Assemble the formation!!"

"Don't let him defeat you piece by piece! Charge!"

"Sharp Arrow Formation! Sharp Arrow Formation!!!"

……

After witnessing Ji Ran's terrifying individual combat capabilities and strange magic, the remaining dozen or so flag bearers immediately formed a battle array!

After all, these members of the Zhengbai Banner are the prince's personal guards, not just good-for-nothings.

In a few breaths, the flag bearers of the bear and deer spirits were in front, and the flag bearers of the crow and eagle spirits were on the sides. More than a dozen people formed a sharp cone, galloping on horseback, and rushed towards him!
At this moment, Ji Ran didn't care about the charge that was so close to him, but looked at the giant bear engraved on the Lingxi Axe with a little annoyance.

Lingxi Axe Skill: Ghost Binding: Ghosts killed by this axe are branded into it and can be summoned. (Currently at level 2, can summon two Axe Ghosts at once.)
I used to have a sharp swordsmanship, and I always used a sword in tough battles. In addition, I had never encountered many ghosts in the world before, so I ignored this skill. It was a pity that I didn't use an axe to execute the Japanese pirates before.

I hope those Japanese pirates haven't retreated. Speaking of ghosts, the ones on them are the best.

Da da da!
Just as the cavalry formation was right in front of him, Ji Ran raised his axe and said, "Capture the ghost!"

boom!
The rain and mud instantly condensed into a huge bear!

Facing the oncoming arrow formation, the giant bear roared and smashed into the formation like a huge rock!

"Be careful!!"

"No!"

"Ah-"

"Roar!!"

In an instant, the two or three leading cavalrymen were knocked down, and the four or five people around them were pulled and bitten by the giant bear and fell off their horses!
The giant bear was covered in blood, and its left claw was chopped off!

It took all the damage from the charge!
The scattered formation and the fallen flagmen were like lambs to be slaughtered to Ji Ran.

“Sigh!”

Ji Ran suddenly squeezed the horse's belly and rushed forward immediately!

"you!"

A flagman who had fallen to the ground stood up, looked at the huge axe rising up, and immediately chopped it down with a knife!

boom!
The giant axe, driven by inertia, smashed the back of its blade onto his body! The lower axe blade even pierced directly into his lower abdomen!
"Ahhhhh!!"

The cavalryman was lifted up by the charge of the giant axe, and his lower abdomen and chest were torn apart!

Bang!
As the bloody corpse fell to the ground, a giant-horned deer appeared on the giant axe!

"Catch the ghost!"

A huge giant-horned deer was also condensed by the water flow and rushed towards the remaining flag bearers!
Da da!

Ji Ran swung the short spear in his hand, piercing and killing a flagman who had his back to him! Then, he clamped his horse's belly and charged into the crowd with his sharp axe in hand!

After three consecutive trips back and forth, there was no longer a single flagman standing in front of the riverbank.

The giant bear was dying, and was captured by the axe along with the elk. There were eight ghost carvings on it: three bears, two deer, and three eagles.

Bang!
Ji Ran jumped off his horse and walked towards County Magistrate Song.

At this moment, County Magistrate Song, who was holding a knife, showed no anger or surprise. He just lightly flicked his robe and knelt down in front of him together with the dozen or so officers.

"Thank you, sir, for helping me to resolve my obsession with Baishui."

"We owe you our lives!"

You have obtained "Ghost Card·Ghost County Magistrate" and "Ghost Card·Ghost Officer"*17 (cannot be taken out)

[You can summon a joker card on cloudy days or at night to fight for your target.]

"Please get up quickly, sir!"

At this moment, County Magistrate Song knelt down and saw clearly that under his raised collar, there were bloody holes and hideous knife marks.

In reality, he died here to protect the river embankment and the people of Baishui!

Coupled with the documents on the desk, Ji Ran had a heartfelt respect for him.

In such a turbid officialdom, it is rare to find someone who can remain untainted, let alone one with integrity.
He helped County Magistrate Song up. The pale, decayed face of the other party looked at him and said, "Who is this person who has such great ability?"

"The Boxer Society."

County Magistrate Song was startled, then nodded and said, "So he is a righteous man."

He sighed and took a few steps.

Ahead, the ground was littered with the blood, flesh, and bones of the Zhengbai Banner soldiers, and a few horses that had managed to survive were pacing helplessly in the mud.

In the distance, Baishui County is dotted with lights, hazy and dim.

"If I had agreed at that time, I wonder if the ending would have been better?"

The wind blew up the hem of County Magistrate Song's clothes, making his back look thin and desolate. The drowning of the people in the city was a huge mountain he had to bear.

"That just delays their death and prolongs their suffering."

"But……"

"County Magistrate Song!"

Ji Ran shouted softly, "In the court, everyone submits! If you had bowed to that captain before, you would have been given a high position, generous salary, silver and treasures, and you would have been able to sleep soundly!"

“Why don’t you obey!?”

Magistrate Song frowned and blurted out, "Plants and trees have their own nature, why would they seek to be broken by a beautiful woman? I have my own principles!"

"Then why are you wavering now? Just because of the deaths of the people?"

The wind stirs up waves, and the rain falls silently.

Magistrate Song remained silent, but Ji Ran continued, "The country is in turmoil, and corpses are everywhere."

"Baishui's blood debt lies in the court, not here! It's not on those of you who died protecting the river!"

"You bastard, you owe me your life! You owe no one a life!"

Two jokers appeared in Ji Ran's hand, and he directly summoned the Lingxi Axe and chopped it into pieces in mid-air!

As the paper scraps flew everywhere, Ji Ran felt relieved in his chest.

Why did County Magistrate Song feel that he owed himself a life?
It was simply because he had killed those soldiers of the Zhengbai Banner in this false reincarnation that he felt he had paid off his blood debt.

But, I don’t admit it.

Every wrongdoer has his head, and every debtor has his own owner!
A hero takes on the debt for a bear, bullshit!

After Ji Ran finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the river bank. The boundaries there were blurred, and once you walked past it, it became reality.

"This official is indeed obsessed."

County Magistrate Song's voice came slowly from behind him, saying, "I am not qualified to decide this blood debt for the people."

"I am not qualified to accept grace on behalf of the people."

"What do you think about the cause and effect of this disaster?"

"kill!"

Ji Ran paused and said calmly, "Whether it's foreigners or the imperial court, I don't want to talk about the economic and political issues behind it."

"You might understand, but the common people don't. They just don't know why the imperial court would ask them to hoe their crops!"

"Why did I protect the riverbank and resist the mountain torrent with my flesh and blood? My wife, children and elders were drowned in the mud and turbid water in their sleep, in the joy of half a bushel of rice!"

"What the people want is not someone's explanation, nor your responsibility! It's blood debt paid with blood!"

The sound of rain stopped and everything was silent.

"Ugh."

A faint sigh swept away all the moisture and haze.

You have obtained "Joker·Whitewater People*75600 people"
