Chapter 251 Don’t Try to Chop Off My Head!
That's right!

This is the temporary execution ground at the crossroads in the city.

Not far away, an executioner was sitting under a awning, ready to give orders at any time.

Several officials in black uniforms stood majestically by the side. They were the masters of the Six Gates.

A group of yamen runners surrounded the execution ground and strictly prohibited anyone from approaching.

On the execution ground.

Liang Jin was not the only prisoner to be beheaded.

There are at least a dozen!

Liang Jin and most of the people were just tied up with ropes.

Three of them had iron rings piercing their scapulas, and they were obviously people with great martial arts skills.

The executioner was holding a large sword with a ghost head, standing behind all the prisoners.

There was a solemn and murderous atmosphere at the scene.

An officer stepped forward and the scene immediately quieted down.

Then, the officials loudly announced to the countless people:
"This government declares to all citizens: Here, a bandit, so audacious as to commit the heinous crime of robbing government grain, disturbs the imperial court and undermines the foundation of the nation. This is unacceptable under national law and forbidden by Heavenly Law!"

"Today, this government has received an imperial decree to execute this thief at the city gate at 3:30 PM today, to bring order to the world and reassure the people..."

After Liang Jin gradually came to his senses, he couldn't help but look puzzled.

Why is my clone going to be beheaded?
Fortunately, the rope on his body did not have any restraining effect on Liang Jin.

At this time, the clone's "Hidden Dragon in the Abyss" was fully activated, causing Liang Jin's external aura to only appear as a ninth-grade warrior.

Perhaps it was for this reason that Liang Jin was only tied up with ropes instead of having his scapula pierced.

Otherwise, Liang Jin's clone might be in danger.

And the officials' announcements continued:

"Government grain is the lifeblood of the nation and the foundation of people's livelihood. These thieves, driven by their own selfish interests, have disregarded the nation and put the people in dire straits. Their actions are so egregious that they are witnessed by heaven and earth, and condemned by both humans and gods."

"After a thorough investigation by this government, the evidence is conclusive and the death penalty is imposed in accordance with the law to uphold the law of the land and appease public anger."

Stealing government grain?
Liang Jin was slightly confused when he heard this.

He glanced at the prisoners around him who were about to be beheaded.

It seems that most of these people are warriors. These bandits did not rob gold, silver and treasures, but instead robbed government grain.

So useless?
While Liang Jin was confused, others were also confused.

A burly man with a pierced scapula also looked at Liang Jin strangely. He whispered, "What's going on?"

"My dear fellow, you are not one of us. Why are you being held here and awaiting beheading?"

When the strong man asked, the other prisoners also looked at Liang Jin with the same confusion.

It seems that these prisoners are all from the same gang.

It's no wonder that the presence of an outsider like Liang Jin attracted the attention of others.

Liang Jin answered truthfully:

"I didn't even know what was happening, I was brought here to be beheaded."

The sturdy man with the pierced scapula could not help but sigh when he heard this:

"It seems that you have become a scapegoat."

"These crooked officials are capable of anything. It seems they want to kill innocent people to claim credit, and use you to make up the numbers."

"We died a worthy death, with no regrets."

"It's a pity that you, my good man, will be forced to go on the road with us."

Upon hearing this, the prisoners around him also shook their heads slightly and sighed for Liang Jin.

Liang Jin swept his eyes across the entire room again.

His attention was mainly focused on the masters of the Six Gates.

There are two fifth-grade masters!
The rest is not worth mentioning.

However, among the group of prisoners around Liang Jin, there were actually two fifth-grade warriors and one sixth-grade warrior, and the rest were second-rate warriors.

This also made Liang Jin even more puzzled.

It is easy for a fifth-grade warrior to have a good future.

Even if you want to be a bandit, you can rob money and women at will.

But why are they so confused and want to rob the government grain?
at this time.

Officials continue to declare:

"Today's execution not only punishes evil and encourages good, but also serves as a message to the world: the law of the land is as firm as a mountain and cannot be violated; the king's authority is as strong as iron and cannot be challenged. Anyone who dares to test the law and violate the laws of heaven will be punished accordingly, and it will be too late to regret."

"This government takes this opportunity to reiterate the majesty of the law and warns all citizens to obey the law, abide by the rules, and refrain from evil thoughts and evil deeds. We hope that the people will take this as a lesson, abide by their duties, work hard to achieve prosperity, and work together to create a peaceful and prosperous world."

At this point, the official finally declared himself finished.

Once the announcement is made, it means that the execution will be carried out soon!
As death approached, the prisoners behaved differently.

The burly man with the pierced scapula could not help but roar at the official:

"Damn it! He's been talking for so long, and it's all such a long and stinky bullshit. I'm getting fed up with it!"

"You bunch of dog officials and birdmen, just give me some quick pleasure!"

Some of the other prisoners followed the strong man in cursing, some knelt there motionless as if they had lost their souls, and some were so weak that they couldn't even kneel.

And on the execution platform.

The executioner had already finished reviewing the official documents. He glanced at the time and then took out the beheading token.

"The time has come!"

"cut!"

After the executioner shouted loudly, he threw the beheading token in his hand to the ground.

The token fell to the ground and the executioners at the execution ground began to move.

They pulled out the death cards stuck in the prisoners' collars and threw them on the ground.

In an instant, the prisoners became even more excited.

Some cursed, some cried loudly, some begged for mercy, and some were numb and hopeless...

"Eighteen years later, another good man!"

Some prisoners screamed. Others shouted:

"Even if I die today, there will still be more people who will go back and steal government grain!"

"As long as you, these damn officials, don't let us live, we will resist to the end!"

It's not just the prisoners who are agitated.

Even the people around were excited.

Some cursed at the prisoners, some shook their heads and sighed, and some showed respect but dared not speak out...

In an instant, the scene became chaotic.

Liang Jin took a look at his death card that had fallen to the ground. There was only "Anonymous" written on it.

"It's really a pack of dog officials!"

He convicted himself and wanted to chop off his own head without even figuring out his own name?

Isn’t this a disregard for human life?

Liang Jin was also very clear that at this moment it was useless to cry out for injustice or to reason with these officials.

If you want to survive, you can only rely on yourself.

at this time.

The executioners had already picked up the wine bowls, took a big gulp of wine, and were about to spray it on the back of the prisoner's neck.

Although Liang Jin is not a germaphobe.

But I also don't like people spitting on me.

Immediately.

Liang Jin's internal strength suddenly shook.

The ropes on his body were broken one after another.

Its powerful force even sent the executioner behind it flying.

He slowly stood up.

Several yamen runners who didn't understand the situation dared to rush towards Liang Jin with water and fire sticks.

Liang Jin just waved his hand.

A strong gust of wind blew out and blew the yamen runners away.

On the execution platform, several masters of the Six Gates all looked serious:
"There's actually a master hiding here!"

At this time, Liang Jin had already picked up the ghost-head sword dropped by the executioner.

He chopped down the three prisoners whose scapulae were pierced with his sword.

"Pong!"

With a crisp sound, the iron rings on the scapulas of the three prisoners were immediately cut off.

Then Liang Jin slashed at the remaining prisoners with another knife.

Wherever the sword energy passed, the ropes on the prisoners broke one after another.

Liang Jin raised his knife and shouted to the prisoners:

"If you don't want to die, don't kneel!"

"Stand up and fight!"

Now that what happened to this clone was too exaggerated, Liang Jin also needed to figure out what was going on.

But at the moment, he naturally cannot communicate with the government, so he can only communicate with these prisoners.

Anyway, if you don't want to be beheaded, you have to resist the government.

This step has already been taken, so let's make the situation a little more chaotic.

Liang Jin is still not sure whether there are any masters in the local government who can really threaten him.

That being the case.

The more chaotic it is, the easier it is to get away.

Seeing this, the prisoners immediately stood up from the ground.

"Brothers! Let's fight our way out together!"

They roared and rushed towards the executioners and bailiffs around them.

After seizing the weapons, the prisoners immediately followed Liang Jin, intending to break out of the city together with Liang Jin!
At this time.

The two fifth-rank masters from the Six Gates had already blocked the way.

"Don't even think about leaving!"

Liang Jin looked at the two of them and said in a deep voice:
"If you don't want to die, get out of here!!!"

The volume of Liang Jin’s last word “get out” suddenly increased by a hundred times!
In an instant, his huge voice contained the power of powerful internal strength.

The terrifying force immediately swept across the entire venue.

The surrounding yamen runners and officials were blown back by the roar like fallen leaves in the autumn wind and fell heavily to the ground.

Even the two fifth-grade masters of the Six Gates were roared at so hard that their faces turned pale, their bodies kept retreating, and two streams of blood flowed from their ears.

Liang Jin learned this voice from the "Nine Rhymes of Immortality" by the sound demon Yue Xuefeng. It is a sound attack technique called "The Cry of the Spirit Crane".

This move is very similar to the Buddhist "Lion's Roar".

The Lion's Roar is like a thunderbolt that can be heard for miles, making the enemy's heart tremble with fear and shocking with its incredible power.

However, the biggest problem with "Lion's Roar" is that its range is too wide. It is a large-scale attack, which makes it difficult to gather its power. It can only be lethal to ordinary warriors with crude internal strength, and it is not very effective against those with deep internal strength.

Liang Jin's move, Lingheli, is a modified version of the "Lion's Roar" by the Sound Demon. It can greatly increase the power and is effective even against strong people of the same realm.

The cry of the crane may not look as majestic as the roar of the lion, but the actual effect is much stronger!

After Liang Jin finished shouting "Get out", the two warriors from the Six Gates could not even stand. They could only half-kneel on the ground, spitting blood.

It was obvious that they had been seriously injured by Liang Jin's shout.

"What a strong internal force!"

There was deep horror in the eyes of the two men, and they looked at Liang Jin in disbelief.

They could never have imagined that among these bandits, there was actually an unfathomable master hiding!
