This painting only occupies a small corner, which is a courtyard of a palace, a corner of a courtyard, and a pond in a corner. Originally, there were only lotus leaves and fish in the pond, but now there is a group of shrimps, no more, no less, exactly eighty-one.
The painting is not a mural, lacquer painting or fine brush painting, but just an ink painting. The shrimps have lost their full appearance, and are only outlined with a few strokes, but they are vivid and lifelike.
"Little shrimp, why are you making trouble here?"
The group of shrimp soldiers were trembling with fear, and kept hunching their shrimp backs and fleeing. Finally, they found that they could not escape, and then they rushed to answer.
After you and I talked, we finally made things clear.
When the handsome young man heard this, his expression suddenly changed, his beautiful eyes frosted: "My God, that dandy from Mount Tai is so bold! He is starting a rebellion! Here..."
Mr. Zhou unexpectedly met with a great disaster and was besieged in Qiantang County.
The handsome young man secretly thought that this was not good. If the young master of the Zhou family was killed by that Taishan guy, what would happen to his sister? ! !
Wouldn't my sister's tears drown me?
The handsome young man made up his mind to try to save Zhou Kao. If he could save his life, then proposing marriage would be much easier.
When we arrived outside Qiantang City, we saw a strange fog spreading in the distance.
"This grand formation, that guy is really generous, actually set up this grand formation, just to capture this human county, for hundreds of years of leisure in the world, is it worth it? Or..."
"Once tonight is over, it will be delayed for another day."
Wang Jiaqi felt a little emotional. Facing the situation of such a large army of demons besieging the city, he actually held on for more than a day. It was really amazing.
Of course, the truly remarkable person is Zhou Yixian, he is the real contributor.
"Meow meow meow~~~"
Listening to the cat's meow, Wang Jiaqi sighed.
Oh, and this cat from Zhou Yixian's school is also a skilled fighter, having performed great deeds!
County Master Wang looked out at the evil fog outside the city.
"Yixian, the demon seems to be waiting for something today."
"They are all waiting to die."
Wiping the tiger-patterned sword, Zhou Kao said calmly as the anger in his heart grew stronger.
"Meow~~ (That's right, that's right!!)~~"
Little Tai Sui jumped into Zhou Kao's arms and rubbed his little head against Zhou Kao's chest.
It seems to be agreeing with Zhou Kao.
There was no way, County Magistrate Wang could not understand what Little Tai Sui was saying.
"..."
Wang Jiaqi was speechless for a moment. Zhou Yixian was good in every way except for his brutality, which was even more intense than that of a demon.
The manner of killing demons on the battlefield was also extremely wild, but County Magistrate Wang just liked it and it suited his taste.
Wang Jiaqi asked with interest.
"Yixian, aren't you afraid?"
"meeting."
Zhou Kao stopped what he was doing and turned to look at Wang Jiaqi.
"But County Master, what's the point of being afraid? Will it help to kneel down and beg for mercy from the demon? The demon covets human flesh and blood, and this is a life-and-death situation.
Kneeling down and begging for mercy is useless. If those demons don't kill us, it's only because they want to keep us captive, not because they have mercy on us and let us go."
"Um……"
"The only way is to wield the sword against the enemy and survive from death!"
Looking at Wang Jiaqi, Zhou Kao continued,
"Many people in Beiguo County know that I, Zhou Kao, am a fighter for justice, but they don't know that I always act within my means. There were a few successful candidates in Beiguo County who allowed their slaves to harm others, but I couldn't do anything about them. I'll just wait until I pass the Autumn Examination and achieve the same level of fame as them, and then I'll deal with them."
"..."
To say that Zhou Kao is narrow-minded... isn't the case. Ultimately, it's all for justice.
Although he is magnanimous, he is obsessed with revenge.
What a crazy scholar! He was able to directly complain and at the same time, he also understood the way of the latent dragon. What a talent! !
Zhou Kao trained hard in the coldest days of winter and the hottest days of summer, diligently practicing martial arts and swordsmanship, just to give himself the confidence to travel the world.
Once danger came, Zhou Kao would flee. Forcing Zhou Kao into a desperate situation would make him decide to kill his entire family.
Zhou Kao is a calculating person. To sacrifice the reputation of his enemy’s entire family in exchange for a temporary escape for himself is definitely worth it!!!
Little Tai Sui's blood still boiled when he heard what Zhou Kao said.
If these scholars had not abused their power to bully others and allowed their slaves to commit violence, how could my husband have been so angry?
It's all their fault.
"Report~~~~"
While the two were chatting, a patrol scout came over.
"Reporting to the County Magistrate and Captain Zhou, shouts and screams were heard from the evil fog to the west of the city, as if someone was fighting within."
"War?"
Wang Jiaqi's eyes lit up, "Could it be reinforcements?!"
"Wait a minute!"
Zhou Kao asked, "West of the city?"
The scout nodded and said, "Reporting to Captain Zhou, it is indeed west of the city."
Zhou Kao thought about it.
"One of the Hundred Households is in the south, and the other is in the north. How can it be in the west of the city?"
In fact, Zhou Kao and County Magistrate Wang both had a guess that taking the two centurions might be a way of self-protection, or that they had already suffered harm, or that they were not in Qiantang County but had gone somewhere else.
"Yixian, do you mean the demon is cheating?"
"We tricked that old wolf. Judging from the demon king's behavior, he is arrogant, suspicious, and proud. He has cultivated for thousands of years but dared not approach the city because he was afraid of being tricked, but he must be extremely angry. The crab monster was his helper before. The old wolf dressed as an envoy said that there were seventeen groups of attackers. This..."
Zhou Kao was not confident that he could kill those monsters in one encounter.
After all, those who drown are all good swimmers.
Not knowing the opponent's weaknesses, Zhou Kao would not charge in blindly unless there was no way out and it was a critical moment.
"The west side of the city..."
"The old way, find someone to pretend to be me and stand guard here, and the county magistrate will also be here to help. I'll go to the west of the city to take a look."
"Alright."
Zhou Kao held the precious sword in his hand, left Tai Sui behind, and headed straight to the west of the city.
Chapter 67: Not reinforcements, but a handsome young man
Zhou Kao came to Qiantang County from the west of the city, so he knew the terrain there well.
When they reached the west side of the city, the local militia and yamen runners immediately saluted: "Greetings, Captain Zhou!"
"Can you see the demon's movements?"
"I only heard shouts and cries of killing. The demonic fog was so vibrant and colorful just now, but now it's quieted down a lot."
"what?"
Zhou Kao pricked up his ears and listened. There were indeed shouts and cries of killing in the demonic fog, but it was not from a large army. It was probably just a small group of demons fighting with something.
"This demonic fog is powerful."
It can isolate a city to transmit messages, and it is watertight and airtight.
As I continued to observe, I suddenly smelled something, not a demonic scent, but a slightly fragrant one.
"Ok?"
At this moment, Zhou Kao looked carefully and saw that there were several monsters fighting with one guy in the fog.
"Who is coming? Is he a friend or an enemy——"
"I am from Yuwangzhou, and I have come to help Zhou Kao of Beiguo County. Oh!"
"..."
Zhou Kao thought, how can you, a poor guy who is under siege, have the confidence to say that you are here to help me?
However, since he could smell no demonic energy, he believed it a little bit and Zhou Kao still planned to help this guy.
The Yuwangzhou is the place where King Yu was once buried. He was one of the strongest men in ancient times.
Zhou Kao knew about Yuwangzhou, but he didn't expect that there would be such a courageous person in this place who would dare to come here to find him.
Zhou Kao was about to ask again
Then I heard the man shouting.
"Ouch!! You're still hitting me...this young master!!"
"Ah ...
Shouts were heard from the evil fog. The guy from Yuwangzhou seemed to be planning to fight to the death. After Zhou Cha noticed it, he silently dived into the water.
Zhou Kao draped the fish skin over his body and looked like a big black fish in the muddy water.
It looks like a crocodile or a dragon, and is extremely strange.
He was sneaking quickly in the water without revealing any breath.
With Zhou Kao's precise positioning, he soon approached the scene of the fight.
He remained calm and observed secretly. When he surfaced slightly, he saw four headless monsters with human bodies and bird legs besieging a ragged pretty boy.
Even though she was beaten to a pulp and had disheveled hair, it was clear that she was originally quite charming???
His clothes were torn by the demon, and he looked really miserable.
"This idiot actually used a broken fan as a weapon, pretending to be a frivolous dancing gentleman. Does he think he is Zhu Yingtai?"
Zhou Kao saw clearly that the weapon in this guy's hand was a folding fan, and it was a broken folding fan, with only the fan bones left and no fan surface.
Zhou Kao found it strange that those demons did not die immediately because their heads were gone. They did not look like living creatures, but more like dead.
Although there was a demonic aura in the air, there was also a foul odor that Zhou Kao felt was the stench of a corpse.
"Zombie? Or, Xia Geng's corpse?"
Zhou Kao pondered in his mind, and seeing that the man was finding it increasingly difficult to resist, he prepared for a surprise attack.
Holding a knife in one hand, ready to explode at any time.
"Damn it! You four brainless bastards! How dare you hit me in the face? Ouch!"
A demon raised its leg and grabbed, chopping from top to bottom. The four claw marks were like four knife scars, scratching the man's shoulders and arms.
The flesh on his face was almost gouged off.
This guy really has something.
He is a capable person.
Seeing that the man was getting more and more exhausted, Zhou Kao said nothing and slapped the sword in his hand.
He had already observed that these monsters were not simple. Their skin was extremely hard and they were obviously invulnerable to swords and guns and not afraid of pain.
bang!
With just this one blow, a lot of the demonic fog was shattered.
The demon that was close to him was knocked back a few steps.
Zhou Kao didn't intend to kill these demons here, his purpose was very pure.
Without any hesitation, he grabbed the hair of the dusty and handsome young man and ran into the waves like a dead dog, walking away on the waves.
"Ouch, be gentle, be gentle, my scalp is going to be gone! My hair?!!!"
