Chapter 167: Killing an Official! You Seem to Hate Me a Lot
In the carriage, the county magistrate Du Yuntong sat upright on the futon, taking the time to close his eyes and regulate his breathing.
Just now, the scene of Shen Qing fighting the general of Huang Tianjiao made him feel restless for a long time.
The shock in his heart was no less than that of Li Linfeng and others.
Originally in his eyes, Shen Qing was just a country bumpkin, with a little talent for martial arts, and with the help of accidental luck, he had some fame.
Du Yuntong looked down on people with Shen Qing's background from the bottom of his heart.
Generally speaking, based on his past experience, as long as he showed a little favor, he could summon and dismiss martial artists of this background.
But what he never expected was that this boy could actually kill such a general of Huang Tianjiao and had a great cultivation.
In terms of combat power alone, he had already climbed above him, which made him unable to accept it for a while.
"Mr. County?"
At this moment, the curtain of the carriage was opened.
Du Yuntong saw Shen Qing's smiling face, and his face trembled, as if he was startled.
He hurriedly forced a smile and said, "Mr. Shen, what's the matter?"
Now he was injured, his cultivation was greatly reduced, and he had no subordinates around him, so he became a lonely man.
Facing such a terrifying person like Shen Qing, he had no chance of winning, so he had to lower his posture.
Du Yuntong, who always had a strong sense of self-esteem and had been in a high position for a long time, suddenly felt a sense of frustration in his heart.
Du Yuntong's hands, which were tucked into his sleeves, had already tightly grasped his knees, trembling slightly, as if he was restraining something.
Shen Qing bowed his hands and said respectfully: "Your Excellency, the carriage you are sitting in is used by my master's family. If you occupy it like this, my master and his family will have to walk. I hope that your Excellency will not do this and give the carriage to my master's family."
"There is still space on my donkey cart. How about you take my donkey cart?"
Du Yuntong was a little different from the officials he had met before. He was a serious official.
Although he was to blame for the loss of Taiping County this time, his status was indeed high enough.
Even if he had many dissatisfactions in his heart, he was not someone who could kill people casually in broad daylight.
Shen Qing also adjusted his attitude.
He thought he was respectful enough, but it was a naked irony in the ears of the county magistrate Du Yuntong.
"Donkey cart? I can't take the carriage of the common people? He actually thinks that I am only worthy of being a donkey."
County magistrate Du Yuntong felt a little angry, and he couldn't even give a faint smile on his face.
Unfortunately, people have to bow their heads under the eaves.
His face was tense, his clenched fists loosened again, and then he got off the carriage without saying a word.
"Mr. Shen, where is your donkey cart?"
County Magistrate Du Yuntong himself did not notice that his tone of voice suddenly became a little arrogant, inadvertently revealing the unique sense of superiority of the superior.
This scene fell into Shen Qing's eyes, making him very unhappy.
Shen Qing pointed casually and said, "Is it behind there?"
County Magistrate Du Yuntong looked in the direction pointed by Shen Qing, and saw the simple donkey cart, his face was ashen.
He did not say much, subconsciously glanced at Shen Qing, and limped towards the donkey cart.
Shen Qing drove his horse to Li Linfeng's side and said, "Master, you can go back. After my persuasion, the county magistrate is willing to change to a donkey cart. I see that you have been frightened. Go back to the cart and have a good rest."
"Shen Qing, it is unwise for you to offend the county magistrate like this. It is true that he has lost his power now, but the officials in the Great Zhou court protect each other. Maybe he has some connections and will regain power one day. It will be bad if he troubles you then."
Li Linfeng continued earnestly, "We have practiced some boxing and kicking, so it doesn't matter if we hurry."
"He is going to the county city, and you are going to Lu'anzhou. If we go our separate ways, he may requisition your carriage frame, and you will have to walk all the way back then."
Li Linfeng remained silent. In fact, he also thought of this.
But what can he do?
"I didn't do anything to him. After all, I saved his life. Master, don't worry about it."
Shen Qing narrowed his eyes and stared at Du Yuntong.
At this time, Du Yuntong just walked to the donkey cart and was about to climb up.
He reached out and touched the crossbow, and his expression was stunned.
Hiding the crossbow? !
According to the law, the crossbow is the military treasury material of the Great Zhou, and it is strictly forbidden for civilians to hold it.
This matter can be big or small.
Du Yuntong looked at the crossbow, and a bold idea suddenly emerged in his mind.
In this case, after I repeat it, you will have a hard time.
He showed a sinister smile and was about to climb, when suddenly a figure stood behind him.
Du Yuntong hurriedly turned around and saw that Shen Qing had come over at some point, with a cold face.
"My lord, I suddenly thought of something. My master and I are going to Lu'anzhou on different roads from you, and we can't escort you to the county city. Why don't you take a short rest here and wait for the reinforcements from the back to come, and then make plans?"
"You..."
Du Yuntong found that Shen Qing was humiliating him.
However, looking at Shen Qing's beast-like eyes, he immediately lost his temper and had to do as he was told.
Du Yuntong glared at Shen Qing, snorted coldly and left the convoy, sitting alone by the official road to recuperate.
Shen Qing ignored him, raised his hand, and called the entire convoy to move.
He looked at Du Yuntong sitting cross-legged on the ground with a deep look, fiddled with the reins, and rode away.
Continuing to the front, Shen Qing had no intention of stopping. Instead, he accelerated his horse and shouted, "I'm going to explore the road ahead. Drive!"
In front of the official road is an almost right-angled bend.
Shen Qing galloped along the curve and disappeared from everyone's sight.
The carriage convoy had just started, and before it could pick up the speed, Shen Qing was far behind.
After lighting the incense, the carriage convoy turned into a corner behind Shen Qing.
When the figures of these people completely disappeared on the official road, Du Yuntong opened his eyes and said angrily: "Shu Zi. How dare you humiliate me like this today, I will not spare you."
"Sir, you seem to hate me!"
Just as Du Yun's call ended, a familiar voice suddenly emerged from behind him, startling him.
Ignoring his injuries, he rolled away. When he looked up, he saw Shen Qing staring at him with a smile, which made his hair stand on end.
At this moment, Shen Qing actually left and came back again, going around.
In fact, Shen Qing had already sensed Du Yuntong's dissatisfaction with him, and realized that keeping him was a hidden danger, and he immediately had the idea of execution in his heart.
Now that I heard the words from the other party's own words, I was even more convinced of my thoughts.
"In that case, I will give you a gift."
Shen Qing took out a weapon mine, triggered the mechanism and threw it towards Du Yuntong.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang.
Du Yuntong still didn't understand what was going on.
The raging flames swallowed him up.
"ah!"
Screams came from the flames.
This flame was red with purple in it, and there were streaks of thunder rays crisscrossing it, cutting it wantonly.
Du Yuntong's body was torn to pieces during the braking process.
"Your Majesty the County Lord was killed by the traitors of the Huangtian Sect..."
Shen Qing smiled and jumped into the forest.
After breaking through the hunting sutra, entering the forest was like a fish in water for him. With his flexible body skills, he quickly and easily passed through the forest.
Before the convoy arrived, he fell back on the horse chasing the wind.
Shen Qing looked back and said with a smile: "It's hard to kill you in broad daylight in front of everyone, but that doesn't mean I won't dare to kill you. Ha, tui~"
