Chapter 6728: The God of Death Enters the City!
On the side of the loess road leading to the city, many refugees from other places gathered, their expressions numb and silent, like the walking dead.
Hunger and thirst made the refugees suffer so much that life was worse than death.
The sound of wheels turning could be heard, crushing the dry land, and the axles made a harsh friction sound due to lack of oil.
There were a lot of things piled up on the ox cart in the middle of the road, covered with a tattered straw mat.
Through the gaps in the straw mat, you can see the white and tender skin and flesh, and there are flies and insects chasing all the way.
Some people were extremely hungry and struggled to stop the ox cart, trying to beg for a piece of meat.
Some people who saw this scene couldn't help but close their eyes, and they obviously knew where the truckload of meat came from.
Recently, there are cars leaving the city every day, bringing back truckloads of rice and meat from outside the city.
The government never cared about how many refugees disappeared as a result, and the people who bought the meat cared even less.
There was no food in the city either. In order to survive, people had no choice but to eat dirt and stones.
Compared with those refugees, at least they have a home to return to. They don't have to leave their homes to escape famine and be slaughtered like pigs and sheep.
The young man driving the ox cart covered his face with a hat to avoid the scorching sun.
He didn't even look at the refugees on the roadside, but just drove the ox cart forward.
When we arrived at the city gate, we heard a burst of angry cursing. It turned out that the soldiers were driving away the refugees again.
The refugees were beaten with canes and wailed miserably. Similar scenes were repeated every day.
Under a thatched hut, officials were drinking tea and ignored the scene.
Occasionally he would frown and show an expression of disgust.
Every time this happened, the soldiers would whip the refugees even harder with their canes, leaving their skin torn and flesh exposed.
The ox cart loaded with rice and meat arrived at the city gate and was stopped by soldiers.
He lifted the straw mat with his spear, glanced around casually, then waved his hand to signal his departure.
Living refugees were not allowed to enter the city, but those who had been skinned and processed were allowed to, as there were many poor people in the city who depended on the meat to fill their stomachs.
This move was tacitly approved. It not only solved the food problem, but also earned more money as a tribute, which could be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
There was a powerful official in the city who talked about this matter during a banquet and praised it a lot in his words.
They believed that this was a great act, which could help refugees escape suffering and relieve them from suffering. It could also help people in need of food and alleviate the crisis caused by food shortages.
It is said that after this statement was made, the sales of rice meat became even more unscrupulous, and now they are sold directly on the streets.
The official guarding the city gate glanced at the coachman and found that he was not the villain he had seen before.
There is no problem with this. It has happened from time to time in the past and it has nothing to do with him.
As long as the time comes, someone will send the money to his home, and all he has to do is turn a blind eye.
The carriage entered the city and moved forward, with people watching from the roadside from time to time.
Seeing the things in the car, many passers-by had complicated expressions, and some even lowered their heads and sighed silently.
The trees and weeds in the city were also picked clean, and a foul smell filled the air.
There was no need to drive it, the old cow could identify the direction by itself and walked towards a block in the city.
The ox cart stopped in front of the dilapidated temple. Two thugs came out, lifted the straw mat and took a look.
Seeing a cart full of rice and meat, he nodded with satisfaction.
"what?"
One of the villains was slightly stunned when he saw the piece of flesh, because there was a black tattoo on it.
The tattoo pattern looked very familiar to him, and it clearly belonged to a fellow villain.
The villain was startled and immediately turned to look at the driver, only to find that it was a strange young man.
"Who are you and where is Niu Er?"
The villain asked in a harsh voice, pulling out the dagger from his waist and pretending to stab.
However, as soon as he took a step, a sharpened wooden stick pierced his throat, and then pierced the chest of another villain.
The two villains staggered, fell to the ground and struggled, watching the young man walk into the yard.
Before long, curses and screams were heard from the yard, attracting the neighbors to look out.
Someone saw the bodies of two dead thugs at the door and realized that something serious had happened. The residents with quick legs immediately rushed to the end of the street and reported the incident to the officers and soldiers.
Hearing the screams coming from the yard, some people were worried, while others applauded. They all knew what the villains in the yard did for a living, and wondered how much rice and meat had been sold from here.
Not long after, the screaming in the yard stopped and no more movement was heard.
A group of officers and soldiers rushed over from a distance, headed straight for the yard where the villain was, and surrounded him from the front, back, left and right.
Several officers and soldiers armed with bows and arrows climbed to high positions nearby and tried to shoot from above.
After climbing to a high place and looking at the scene in the yard, he suddenly gasped.
Other officers and soldiers gathered at the door, waving their swords and shouting loudly, trying to intimidate the enemy in this way.
Under the command of an officer, a group of soldiers armed with spears and swords rushed into the yard where the villains lived.
The officers and soldiers were no strangers to these villains and would usually accept their gifts.
The officers and soldiers were also aware of the business done by the villains, but no one ever tried to stop it.
They don't have the courage to interfere or stop things that the grown men have acquiesced in, otherwise they will get themselves into trouble.
No one expected that there would be such a strong man who would break into the villain's lair in broad daylight.
The officers and soldiers soon saw a young man slowly walking out, holding a rusty spear in his hand.
The spear was stained with fresh blood, and the yard was littered with corpses.
All the villains gathered here were killed, and not a single one survived.
"Who are you to kill people wantonly in the city? You are so bold!
I advise you to drop your weapon immediately and follow me to the government office. If you have any grievances to appeal, the master will definitely make a decision for you!"
The captain of the police who led the team shouted threats and persuasions, trying to make Tang Zhen surrender.
Seeing the dead bodies everywhere, the officers were terrified, knowing that the young man in front of them must be someone not to be trifled with.
If we could capture the other party and send him to prison without bloodshed, that would naturally be the best thing to do.
The so-called redress of grievances is nothing but a perfunctory remark. Even if one is truly unwilling to accept the injustice, one will eventually die.
When the men hear about this, they will definitely be furious, because this move will bring them a lot of trouble.
There is no need to guess, you know that this young man in front of you has basically no chance of survival.
Tang Zhen looked indifferent and said coldly: "If you don't want to die, then get out of here immediately. This matter has nothing to do with you.
If you insist on getting involved, I will send you off with me."
Upon hearing Tang Zhen's warning, a group of officers, soldiers and detectives showed anger on their faces, with murderous intent in their eyes.
They have met all kinds of people, and many of them have said harsh words, but in the end they all had to kneel down and kowtow.
The young man in front of me really doesn't know how to live or die. I must teach him a lesson.
At this moment, the officer quietly waved his hand, giving the archers an attack signal.
After receiving the order, the archers immediately bent their bows and shot arrows at Tang Zhen one after another.
When the officers and soldiers thought that Tang Zhen would be shot to death by the sharp arrows, they saw that he just waved his spear a few times and knocked down all the arrows.
Everyone was stunned at the same time. They didn't expect Tang Zhen's reaction to be so quick. The archer's fatal attack was easily resolved.
"Keep shooting!"
Seeing this, the officer gritted his teeth and gave the order to attack, driving his soldiers to surround Tang Zhen.
But Tang Zhen raised his hand and waved it, and stones flew out and hit several archers directly in the face.
These archers just now clearly wanted to shoot Tang Zhen to death, so why should he show mercy?
Several archers screamed and fell from a high place one after another, and it was unknown whether they were dead or alive.
The officers and the captain of the police led their men and rushed to the front. Although they were frightened by the archers' experience, they had no choice but to launch the attack.
But at this moment, the young man who was surrounded suddenly looked up at the group of officers, soldiers and constables.
"You all deserve to die for aiding and abetting the evil!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Zhen's gun shot out like a dragon, bringing up a cloud of smelly blood mist.
