How I Became the Emperor - Chapter 6

[6.Chapter 6 The Butcher’s Knife]

Soon, the old butler in yellow entered a secret room made of steel.

In the middle of the secret room, there was an ice jade bed, with a lean old man with white hair hanging down sitting cross-legged on it, seemingly sleeping but not sleeping.

Suddenly, a dull voice came from the old man’s belly: “Have the lackeys and minions of Daxuan Town Fusi gone?”

“Sir, they are gone! They also took away one hundred taels of silver from their subordinates.” The steward in yellow bowed. He replied, looking extremely respectful.

“Do you see clearly?” the lean old man asked again.

“See clearly! That boy used the sword-drawing technique, which is as fast as thunder! It is comparable to the earth-level sword technique!” The steward in yellow nodded.

“What knife?”

“…It’s a pig-killing knife! Made of black iron, thick and sharp!”

“Where is the knife hidden?”

“It’s hidden on the back of the kid’s armor. It’s blocked by the cloak. It’s easy to I can’t tell. Because of this, Dongfang Hong was defeated in one move. “

Huh! This guy has been promoted to the Gangqi realm at a young age. He is smart, capable and ruthless. If he is really allowed to be the head of the Zhenfu Division, I’m afraid. It’s Li Feng again! Find someone to kill him!”

The white-haired old man opened his eyes with murderous intent.

“Sir, this son has just passed his eighteenth year. He has already matured and his martial arts talent is unique. You might as well give it a try first and win over this son! If you succeed, I, Dayou, will be placed in Fusi, Daxuan Town. He is an important chess piece. If it fails, it will not be too late to kill him.”

The old steward in yellow bowed his hand.

After hearing what he said, the white-haired old man rolled his eyes and his expression returned to a cold expression: “Okay! Then it will be as you say!”

“Yes! I will ask the Shenlin Army to send someone here.”

The old steward in yellow was solemn. He handed over his hand and turned around to exit the secret room.

At this moment, the white-haired old man stopped and said: “Slow down! Let Yun Niang go. Her mind-refining Gu can kill people invisible. Even if the mission fails, the Zhenfu Division will not suspect us.”

“Yes! Please invite Yun Niang to come over.”

Upon hearing this, the old housekeeper trembled slightly.

She seemed to be very afraid of that Yun Niang.

…

ta tap tap tap tap.

The sound of horse hooves is as dense as drum beating.

At this time, on the official road back to Shashui County, five Molin horses galloped like lightning, tearing out a huge wave of snow in the vast snow.

Lu Gan and the other five people didn’t say anything and just hurried on.

Half an hour later, the 100-foot black city wall of Shashui County came into view.

On this mottled city wall, there are wanted portraits posted one after another. There are hundreds of them, all of them are the most vicious criminals in Qingyang County.

The lowest level of cultivation is the pinnacle of the physical realm! The tallest one is a master of the Flying Heaven Realm who can fly across the void!

Shen Zishuang’s heart trembled.

The five realms of martial arts are the physical realm, the Gang Qi realm, the flying heaven realm, the Dharma Appearance External Scenery realm, and the Martial Saint.

Sixty-seven out of ten warriors in this world can only waste their lives in the physical realm. Only warriors with extraordinary talents can step into the Gang Qi realm and condense Gang Qi.

After that, he can open all the orifices of his body, open the bridge between heaven and earth, step into the flying realm, break away from the shackles of the ground, and fly in the sky. Such a person can kill an army of 100,000 and defeat it.

If you become an official in the court, you can also become a general respected by thousands of people.

The master of Dharma Appearance and External Scenery at the next level can be said to be half a true immortal on land, a dragon-like existence in the clouds.

The thunder, fire, water and electricity between the fists are like gods. They can condense the laws of heaven and earth and kill people with their eyes. They are prince-level existences.

The last Martial Saint, in the entire Daxuan, there is only one person among the seven billion warriors, and that is the Emperor of Daxuan, Zhao Xuanji!

“It’s Mr. Lu, open the city gate!”

At this time, the defenders on the city wall finally recognized Lu Gan and shouted loudly.

Boom.

The black iron city gate more than three feet high slowly opened.

The soldiers on the left and right held long halberds and immediately came forward. They all saluted respectfully: “My subordinates pay homage to Mr. Lu!”

“Is there anything wrong in the county?”

Lu Gan reined in Mo Lin’s horse and asked coldly.

“My lord, everything is fine.”

“Okay! Take down the wanted portraits of the lone thief Dongfang Hong and the concubine Dai Guangming. I have captured Dongfang Hong and killed Dai Guangming.”

Lu Qian After giving the instructions, he flicked the riding whip in his hand, and the horse galloped out.

Shen Zishuang, Zhou Eleven and others quickly followed.

Only the defenders who looked shocked were left:

“What! Isn’t Dai Guangming in the Gang Qi realm? He was actually killed by Mr. Lu?”

“Did Master Lu have already broken through the Gang Qi realm!”

“Our Mr. Lu… seems to be just now I’m eighteen years old.”

“It seems that I need to prepare a gift to send to the Zhenfu Division. If I can please Mr. Shanglu, hehehehe.”

“I seem to have a niece from far away. She looks very special. Do you know if Mr. Lu likes it?”

At this moment, the captain of the soldiers shouted majestically: “How unbecoming is it to make such a noise? Stand still!”

Suddenly, all the soldiers stood in solemn silence.

The captain looked back at the direction where Lu Qian disappeared, frowned, and murmured.

“Shashui County… is about to change. Mr. Lu has been promoted to the Gangqi Realm, and I am afraid he will have to deal with the powerful and evil gentry in the county. A storm is coming. It’s time to take sides.”

The Zhenfu Division of Shashui County is located in The southeast corner covers an area of 18 acres. It is cast with extremely hard black steel stone. It is shaped like a bunker and is heavily guarded.

In addition to the martial arts training ground, pigeon cage, and weapons depot, there is also a prison set up to detain criminals with shockingly powerful weapons.

Next to it is the county government office of Shashui County.

Lu Gan returned to the Zhenfusi Bunker, and a group of detectives guarding the gate of the Zhenfusi Bunker quickly stepped forward to salute.

The leader was a middle-aged black-faced man wearing bronze armor.

“Old Hei, throw Dongfang Hong into prison and let Mr. Xing prepare. I want to interrogate this guy.” Lu Gan got off his horse and pointed at Dongfang Hong, who was frozen stiff on the horse.

“Yes! You guys, take Dongfang Hong into the third-level dungeon, be careful.”

The black-faced man waved his hand.

Immediately, five tough policemen stepped forward, like wolves and tigers, grabbed Dongfang Hong, put three hundred kilograms of fine iron shackles on her, locked her joints, and pushed her into the Zhenfu Division Prison.

Another catcher stepped forward and took away the five Molin horses.

“Sir, are these the soldiers sent by Qianlong Camp?” The dark-faced man’s eyes fell on Shen Zishuang and the others.

“That’s right. Shen Zishuang was born in the Jianyun Sect on the 11th, 12th, and 13th weeks of the Qianlong Camp. This is Sun Hei, the former Bronze Head Catcher in Shashui County. Lao Hei, take them to get acquainted with each other. Let’s go to the Zhenfu Department. I’ll go and interrogate Dongfang Hong first.”

After Lu Gan ordered, he tiptoed and rushed into the Zhenfu Department.

After bypassing the hall, turning around the corridors and gardens and waiting for the secret whistle, he soon arrived at the door of the Zhenfu Division Prison. Entering inside, a damp and moldy smell hit his nostrils.

On both sides are cells, separated by fine iron bars, where criminals from Shashui County, Heyuan County, and Feiyun County are imprisoned.

These criminals were screaming all the time, those who were wronged, those who were hungry, and those who wanted women. The whole cell was as noisy as a busy city.

However, when Lu Gan appeared, all the criminals immediately shut up and remained silent.

He didn’t dare to look at Lu Qian at all.

The entire prison fell silent for an instant.

Lu Gan walked as fast as an arrow and walked down a stone wall passage. He saw a table at the corner with hot food and wine on it.

An old Taoist with a red nose was lying in the Taishi’s chair, holding the wine jar, drinking wine and sleeping soundly.

Without saying a word, Lu Gan stepped forward and kicked over the Taishi’s chair.

Suddenly, the old Taoist turned over and fell to the ground. The wine jar in his arms shattered, leaving wine on the floor.

“It turns out it’s you! You spoiled my good wine again.” The red-nosed old man muttered, stood up and patted his butt.

As soon as the vigorous blood and energy circulated throughout his body, it was like an oven erupting, and the hot air was billowing. After a few breaths, the soaked clothes became dry again.

“Stop talking nonsense! Work!” Lu Gan said with a cold face as he went straight into the depths of the dungeon.

“Lu Bapi!” The red-nosed old man cursed in his heart and followed.

After going down another level, iron cages appeared in front of us.

Some of these iron cages are empty, and some contain prisoners, who are bound with large crosses. The iron ropes are pierced through the bones of the lute, the tendons and hamstrings of the hands and feet are broken, and the limbs and wrists and ankles are still wrapped with shackles and chains.

They were all at the peak of the physical realm before, with the least powerful punch weighing seven thousand kilograms, but now they are all dying, with scars all over their bodies and hanging with only one breath left.

Hearing the footsteps, several people opened their eyes.

As soon as he saw it was Lu Gan, he felt as if he was seeing the enemy who killed his father. His eyes instantly turned red, and he was gnashing his teeth and struggling, as if he wanted to break out of the iron cage and eat Lu Gan alive.

Lu Gan had no time to pay attention to them. He walked to an iron cage and waved: “Bring Dongfang Hong out, I will interrogate him overnight.”

“Hey, you unlucky guy.” The old man who was following Lu Gan smiled sinisterly and took out the Key, opened the cage door and took Dongfang Hong out.

At this time, Dongfang Hong was shivering from the cold, his face was pale, and his lips were purple.

If the warrior hadn’t been physically strong, he would have died long ago.

After a while, this guy was lifted deep into the dungeon by Xing Laodao and tied with a cross stick. He was tied so tightly that he couldn’t even move a finger.

Immediately, Xing Laodao took out a roll of black cloth and spread it out on the execution platform next to him. There were silver needles inserted in the cloth bag.

Under Dongfang Hong’s fearful gaze, the old Taoist Xing took out silver needles and walked over, grinning ferociously.

Then he thrust it into Dongfang Hong’s head.

Swish swish swish.

After a few efforts, Dongfang Hong’s head was covered with silver needles, looking extremely terrifying.

“Alas, as we get older, our craftsmanship has declined. One of the sticks actually got stuck crookedly!” Xing Laodao sighed, looked at Dongfang Hong’s pale face, and said with a smile: “The lone thief Dongfang Hong, right? You don’t have to be afraid. This silver The needle is just sealing your acupuncture points and veins to prevent you from biting your tongue and killing yourself.”

As he spoke, he closed Dongfang Hong’s chin with a clap of his hand.

“I’ll recruit! I’ll recruit! I’ll recruit anything!”

Immediately, Dongfang Hong shouted with a sad face, his eyes full of fear.
