Starting from the imperial palace guards, his clones spread all over the world.

Chapter 403: Robbery of official silver?
On the other side, Liang Jin and his party were still on their way without stopping.

During the two-day trip, Liang Jin had Xiaoyu and Shen Diao move in other directions to attract other people's attention, thus cleverly concealing his true whereabouts.

I have to say that making full use of [Nine Sky Boundless] to convey information is extremely convenient.

Even though he and Xiaoyu were hundreds of miles apart, they were able to communicate instantly.

In this era, instant messaging is like a killer weapon in the field of information transmission, and it plays an immeasurable role.

Therefore, he did not need to call Xiaoyu back to rearrange the task. He could communicate with Xiaoyu smoothly in [Nine Sky Boundless] and complete the task deployment.

After two days of long journey, they finally arrived at a city.

"Brother, this is Huaian City."

Xiao Liu looked at the city in front of him with a complicated expression and said:
"This Huai'an City was very prosperous a few years ago, but now..."

His words stopped abruptly, but the scene before him said it all.

This city seemed to have died in this drought.

The city gates were wide open, and the strong wind blew past unhindered, carrying sand and dust all over the sky, as if it wanted to sweep away the last vitality of the city.

When Liang Jin and others stepped into the city, they saw that the streets were deserted and empty. Only the wind and sand blew by, occasionally blowing up some debris and making a rustling sound.

However, as they walked past the houses on both sides of the street, they could vaguely feel that there were pairs of eyes behind the windows, staring at them nervously and secretly, their eyes full of vigilance and fear.

Obviously, this city is not completely deserted, and there are still residents struggling to survive here. However, I don’t know what kind of hardships they have experienced. The residents here are full of fear of outsiders and can only hide in the dark and observe carefully.

There was no sound of chickens crowing or dogs barking, and all kinds of debris were scattered on the road. The dilapidated scene told the story of the city's former prosperity and its current vicissitudes.

Liang Jin and his group rode horses, the sound of horse hooves was particularly loud in the quiet street, and they slowly crossed the street.

Soon, a butcher shop appeared on the street.

There was a big pot at the door of the butcher shop. The broth in the pot was boiling "gurgling!" and a lot of meat pieces were cooking in the boiling broth.

Large chunks of meat were hung on the iron hooks hanging from the roof of the butcher shop, swaying slightly in the wind.

A tall, fat man was using a boning knife to remove the meat from the bones.

He was fat, and the fat on his body trembled with every movement, but there was a fierce look on his face that made people feel scared.

His movements were skillful and it was obvious that he had been doing this for a long time.

But his hands were extremely unsteady. Even when he was cutting the meat, they would tremble uncontrollably from time to time, and the trembling became more and more intense.

It was obvious that he had developed some serious disease.

When Liang Jin and the other two rode closer, the fat man who was deboning suddenly spoke without even looking up. His voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of discomfort:

"My three guests, the road ahead is long."

"Let's buy some meat to fill our stomachs. Only when we are full can we start our journey."

Liang Jin and the other two naturally ignored him, looked calm, and walked straight ahead.

But the next moment, the fat man seemed to be angry, and suddenly slashed the boning knife in his hand hard on the chopping board.

"Oh!"

There was a loud bang, which was particularly harsh in the quiet street.

Then the fat man raised his head, his eyes fierce and fierce, looking at the three people viciously, and almost squeezed out a few words from between his teeth:
"I say, buy some meat!"

Liang Jin and the other two looked at each other, their eyes conveying tacit understanding and calmness.

Then Liang Jin dismounted and walked towards the fat man with steady steps. Lei Zhen and Xiao Liu also dismounted quickly and followed Liang Jin closely.

Liang came to the butcher shop and first glanced at the meat cooking in the big pot. The color and texture of the meat were strange. Then he looked at the meat on the fat man's chopping board.

"What kind of meat is this?"

Liang Jin asked.

The fat man grabbed the boning knife from the chopping board and continued to cut the meat, while answering vaguely:

"Vegetables and meat."

As for what kind of meat the vegetable meat was, the fat man did not explain.

But the three people present had already guessed the answer in their hearts, but they all kept it to themselves.

Liang Jin asked again:

"How to sell it?"

The fat man didn't even raise his head and answered in a muffled voice:
"One ounce of silver for ten ounces of meat."

Liang Jin nodded, then asked slowly:
"What happens if I don't buy meat?"

The fat man suddenly stopped moving, raised his head again, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.

"If you don't buy meat, you become meat!"

He spoke gloomily, with a fierce light flickering in his eyes.

His hands were shaking more and more violently, and even the corners of his eyes were twitching. The expression on his face was becoming more and more impatient and irritable, and he made a chaotic humming sound from time to time.

The whole person is like a volcano that is about to erupt and may explode at any time.

Liang Jin looked at the fat man patiently with a calm expression, a hint of amusement in his eyes, as if he was waiting for the fat man to explode.

Xiao Liu had already placed his hand lightly on the hilt of the sword. As long as the fat man dared to make any rash moves, he would immediately strike without hesitation and stab the fat man to death.

Lei Zhen showed disdain on his face. He had long seen that this fat man was just a ninth-rank warrior and was not worth mentioning in front of his elder brother.

If it were two years ago, Lei Zhen would have been unable to contain himself and would have killed the fat man.

However, in the past two years, Changzhou has suffered from severe drought, and the people have begun to use any means to survive, and all kinds of tragic things have occurred one after another.

Although Lei Zhen hated these behaviors, he knew he couldn't control them.

But if this fat guy dares to cause trouble, Lei Zhen will definitely not let him off.

But who would have thought that the fat man stared at Liang Jin with the knife in his hand, brewing for a long time but never erupting.

He seemed to be shocked by Liang Jin's calm expression, which even had a hint of playfulness and anticipation, and he vaguely realized that the three people in front of him might not be easy to mess with.

The fat man gritted his teeth so hard that his knuckles turned white from holding the boning knife so tightly, and the veins on the back of his hand were bulging.

But even so, the fat man never dared to take action.

Liang Jin lost his patience, a cold look flashed in his eyes, and he slapped him.

"Snapped!!!"

The slap was so powerful that it made the fat man's head tilt and he almost fell to the ground. It was as if the volcano that was about to erupt was extinguished in an instant.

Liang Jin said disdainfully:
"If you don't have the guts to use a knife, don't try to force sales on me."

After saying that, Liang Jin turned around and left with Lei Zhen and Xiao Liu.

They returned to their horses and were about to mount.

At this moment, the fat man who was stunned by the slap seemed to wake up at this moment.

He suddenly opened his mouth and shouted:

"Brother! Someone's causing trouble!"

“Someone from out of town is going to hit me!!!”

The fat man's voice was like a loud bell, clearly transmitted to every corner of this silent city.

The fat man's shouting soon attracted a group of people.

At first glance, this group of people looked like a group of officials.

They wore black official uniforms, black boots, black hats, and held water and fire sticks.

The two people in the lead were holding signs saying "Stay away" and "Silence", looking very majestic.

But if you look closely, you will find that the soap clothes they are wearing do not fit them at all. The loose clothes hang loosely on their bodies, which looks very funny.

Moreover, this group of people are all unruly and sloppy, walking crookedly, and have absolutely no integrity and dignity that should be possessed by people in public office.

This group of people rushed over and quickly surrounded Liang Jin and the other two.

Liang Jin smiled slightly and was not in a hurry to leave.

Because he had already seen a new message pop up on the system interface:

[Detected the presence of an extremely evil person near the host. 】

【Should we bring it into the Nine Sky Boundless Realm?】

【whether】

On the radar interface, a large area of ​​light spots appeared nearby.

It was obvious that Liang Jin was surrounded by extremely evil people at this time.

Soon, a throne was brought over.

I saw a man wearing the official uniform of a county magistrate sitting on the armchair.

This official uniform was obviously tailor-made for an obese official, but the man was so thin that he seemed as if a gust of wind could blow him down, so that the official uniform looked loose and crooked on him, with the corners of the clothes hanging on the ground.

The man didn't look like an official at all. With a ruffian look on his face, he looked more like a scoundrel.

The man was sitting on the armchair, looking at Liang Jin and the other two with a squint, his chin slightly raised, and asked in a deep voice:

"I'm the boss of this city, Xu San!"

"Where did you three come from? Why don't you kneel down when you see me?"

Lei Zhen smiled disdainfully, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a hint of sarcasm.

Xiao Liuze still held the hilt of the sword with his hand, looking alert, not daring to relax at all.

It was Liang Jin who spoke:

"You are not the magistrate."

The thin man who called himself Xu San heard this and pointed at the big pot at the door of the butcher shop with a cruel smile on his face:

"The magistrate was killed by me!"

"His fat body certainly can't be wasted. If you fish it out of that pot, you might be able to find some of his bones."

"You three, do you also want to be cooked in the pot?"

After Xu San finished speaking, a group of men dressed as yamen runners around him also burst into laughter.

Their laughter was full of malice, and they looked at Liang Jin and the other two as if they were prey to be slaughtered.

Liang Jin said calmly:
"Being boiled? Of course I don't want to."

"I don't know, what do you want to do?"

Hearing this, the men dressed as yamen runners around burst into laughter again. The laughter echoed in the empty street, sounding particularly harsh.

Xu San crossed his legs, leaned back in his armchair, and said lazily:

"Since you three are strong and healthy, I will give you two choices."

"First, get into that pot and be boiled."

"Since you said you don't want to be boiled, then I'll give you a second choice."

"Give us your horses and belongings, then come with us and we'll give you everything you want to eat and play with." "Brothers, pull out the bitches and show them!"

Xu San said this and waved towards the group of men.

I saw a group of women being quickly pulled out by the men.

These women were young and pretty, and were obviously selected.

But what is shocking is that each of these women has a dog chain tied around their neck and can only crawl on the ground with their hands and feet like dogs.

Each of them had a terrified look on their face, their eyes filled with fear and despair, and they seemed to be extremely afraid of Xu San and his gang.

Xu San smiled and said:

"Follow me, and from now on, I can have sex with any woman in this city I want! I can kill any man in this city I want! As long as there's something edible here, you can eat whatever you want!"

"Because I am the sky of this city!"

What Xu San said was not an exaggeration.

In the past few months, people in this city have been starving, and rules are often broken at this time.

Xu San and a group of people stood up at this time.

They stormed the county government office, killed the magistrate, and stole all the government grain.

After that, Xu San became the master of this city.

But when he gained absolute power, he gradually began to change.

He was always worried that the court would come to settle accounts with him, and he was in a state of panic all day long, so he kept recruiting subordinates.

But at the same time, he lost the restraint and supervision of his power, and began to become unscrupulous, bullying men and women and doing all kinds of evil.

By now, he has become not like a human being, but a devil!
He has abandoned all humanity and kept all the living people in the city like livestock, allowing them to be slaughtered by him and also to be fed by him.

"Now that you've thought it through, kowtow to me and express your gratitude."

Xu San leaned back in his chair and said lazily.

Liang Jin and the other two looked at each other, with deep disgust in their eyes.

They could roughly guess what had happened in this city.

You can also understand what kind of person Xu San is.

In this chaotic world, too many people choose to join the outlaws.

Some of these people became heroes and brave men, fighting against violence and protecting the good, bringing a ray of hope to the people in the darkness; but some of them committed evil and lost all conscience, turning the world into purgatory.

Today, they encountered the latter.

At this point, Xu San was already getting impatient, a ferocious look appeared on his face, and he started cursing:

"Fuck you! You've been dithering for so long, are you going to submit to me or not?"

"If you want to submit, kneel down and give thanks!"

"If you don't surrender, don't blame us brothers for being ruthless and ruthless. We'll peel off your skin and cut off your flesh!"

As Xu San grew angry, the group of men around him who looked like yamen runners kept yelling and cursing at the three of them, spewing all kinds of foul language.

At the same time, they all grabbed their weapons, held the water and fire sticks tightly in their hands, and approached Liang Jin and the other two with messy steps, obviously ready to take action.

Liang Jin smiled, with a hint of coldness in his smile.

He was too lazy to talk nonsense with these people.

Just kill them all!
Among the people present, only Xu San was a seventh-rank warrior. The rest were mostly ordinary people, and the remaining warriors were all eighth and ninth ranks. In his eyes, they were not a concern at all.

Although most of these people are extremely evil.

But Liang Jin also has his own temper.

If he had not witnessed the evil deeds, and the most evil people appeared around him and dragged him into the [Nine Sky Boundless Boundaries], that would be it.

But if he sees someone doing evil, he will kill them!
Immediately, Liang Jin prepared to let Lei Zhen and Xiao Liu take action.

at this time.

"Boo! Hah! Hah!"

There was a sound of breaking through the air, the sound was sharp and piercing, like an arrow streaking through the night sky.

The next moment, several steel needles came flying through the air!

The steel needles, like flowers scattered by a fairy from heaven, shot into the eyebrows of several men around with a fierce momentum.

These steel needles are full of internal force and can actually penetrate people's skulls and penetrate deep into their brains.

In just a moment, these men didn't even have time to scream. Their eyes widened, expressions of fear on their faces, and they fell straight to the ground.

The scene instantly fell into chaos and panic.

The crowd ran around like frightened birds, their steps hurried and panicked, knocking over debris on the street, making crackling sounds.

Someone yelled at the top of his lungs:
"There are assassins!"

The sharp shouts echoed in the empty streets, adding a touch of tension and fear to the atmosphere.

Some people were so frightened that their legs went weak and they collapsed to the ground, trembling all over, their eyes full of despair and helplessness, as if the end of the world had come.

These people were as terrifying as man-eating demons to the people; but when faced with those who wanted to kill them, they were quickly frightened and trembled like mice.

Liang Jin turned his head slightly, his eyes sharp as torches, and looked in the direction where the steel needle came from.

A group of people quietly appeared on the slightly dilapidated roofs of the surrounding houses.

They all held weapons in their hands, and under the sunlight, the weapons reflected a dazzling cold light, like a group of avengers descending from the darkness.

Without any hesitation, these people jumped down from the roof like a group of agile cheetahs and quickly fought with the men dressed as yamen runners.

For a moment, the sounds of shouting and weapons clashing were intertwined.

Among this group of people, the performances of three people were particularly eye-catching, like the brightest stars in the night sky.

One of the women had eyes as clear and bright as a pool of autumn water, revealing intelligence and courage.

She is very beautiful, wearing a purple dress that outlines her agile figure.

At this moment, she held a pair of mandarin duck axes in each hand. The mandarin duck axes seemed to have life in her hands, flying nimbly and reaping the lives of others.

Her lightness skills are especially amazing. With just a tap of her toes on the ground, she can fly several feet away like a swallow, which is amazing.

The wave of precise and deadly steel needles just now came from her hands. It was obvious that her hidden weapon skills were very powerful. Every time she made a move, the steel needles seemed to have eyes and could accurately hit the enemy's vital points, making it impossible for the enemy to defend against it.

The other was a skinny man who looked like an ordinary farmer. He was wearing a patched, washed-out linen shirt and had a dark, rough skin.

He held a copper face-blocking sword in his hand, and the copper weapon gleamed with an ancient luster in the sunlight.

His moves are strange and changeable, making it difficult to predict.

He was particularly good at acupressure. Wherever he went, the enemies were hit. Their bodies instantly stiffened and they collapsed to the ground. They could only watch themselves being subdued with a look of despair on their faces.

The other person was a young man with a handsome face.

He was waving a flail in his hand, and the flail was being swung vigorously in his hand. Every swing brought up a strong wind, as if it could tear the air apart.

He was incredibly strong and powerful, and each of his strikes could easily break the enemy's bones, making a heart-pounding cracking sound.

What is shocking is that these three people are all sixth-grade warriors!
Their joining instantly reversed the entire battle situation.

Xu San and his companions, who had been arrogant and domineering, suddenly seemed vulnerable under the fierce attack of these three people. They were no match for them and were beaten to a pulp.

Seeing that someone had taken action, Liang Jin was happy to have some free time.

He stood aside with Lei Zhen and Xiao Liu, looking relaxed, as if he was not involved.

During the battle, the woman passed by Liang Jin and the other two and turned her head slightly to kindly remind them:

"Don't be afraid. My name is Yan Sanniang, and I'm known as the 'Flying Swallow Thief' in the martial arts world. We're not bad people. We're here to save you."

"Stand still and don't run around, lest you get hurt by mistake."

Her voice was clear and melodious, like a mountain spring, and it was particularly clear in this noisy battlefield.

After saying that, she turned around and nimbly joined the battle again, dancing the mandarin duck axe in her hand faster and faster, bringing up flashes of cold light.

Of course Liang Jin and the other two were too lazy to move, so they just stood there leisurely, continuing to watch the show with great interest.

The fight did not last long. Under the fierce attack of Yan Sanniang and others, Xu San, Fatty and the group of men were basically killed.

Yan Sanniang and her gang of warriors obviously knew Xu San and the others' details very well, so they attacked with extreme ferocity, each move was fatal, and they had no intention of leaving any survivors.

Every time they attacked, they were determined to kill, as if they were carrying out a just trial.

In the end, the entire street was littered with dead bodies.

The dead bodies lay in disorder on the ground, blood flowed out of their bodies, spreading across the streets and gathering into rivers of blood, emitting a strong smell of blood.

Yan Sanniang then ordered people to release the group of poor women who were treated like dogs.

The moment those women regained their freedom, it was as if they had returned from hell to the world.

Their legs gave out and they collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down their cheeks as they sobbed bitterly. Their cries expressed both the joy of regaining their freedom and the sorrow and despair they felt for the tragic experiences they had endured in the past.

Then Yan Sanniang set fire to the butcher shop.

A raging fire broke out instantly, and the flames licked the walls and roof of the butcher shop, making crackling sounds.

She seemed to think that Liang Jin and the other two would be confused, so she turned back and explained to them:

"This meat cannot be eaten."

"If you want to eat, you can work for us."

Liang Jin just smiled.

Lei Zhen and Xiao Liu were also quite helpless.

Xu San wants to recruit soldiers, and Yan Sanniang also wants to recruit soldiers?
At this time.

I saw that this group of warriors brought another large cart of food.

They scooped out the food with gourd ladles and distributed it to the poor women.

As food appeared, the people who had been hiding in their houses finally came out of their homes.

They looked at the cart full of food and were initially filled with fear and trepidation.

But then, they could no longer suppress their hunger and rushed forward.

In this world, there is nothing more terrifying than hunger.

The warriors maintained order and distributed the food to the people.

Yan Sanniang jumped onto the grain cart and shouted to everyone:

"We're looking for a group of people to help carry the goods. If anyone is willing to help, we'll give them enough food!"

"Anyone who is a warrior can also join us!"

"If you're brave enough, you can come with us and rob the government silver!!!"

"If we rob the government silver, everyone will have food to eat!"
