"Oh, I can't survive this day. Not only are we short of clothes and water, but we are also running out of food. If this continues, I think the world will be in chaos." Someone suddenly interrupted, Ning Caichen followed the sound, but it was the man in gray at the next table. This man in gray clothes is in his thirties. He looks thin, but his eyes are particularly sharp. Look at his hand holding the bowl, especially the tiger's mouth, which has a thick layer of calluses. He is obviously a martial arts practitioner. His voice was not loud, but just enough for everyone in the teahouse to hear.
Those who heard it nodded one after another. Although most of them did not dare to bring up this topic, some people started to speak, and others couldn't help but whisper to each other.
"That's not true. Just in the past few years, do you think that everything the imperial court has done is a matter of personnel? So many great Confucian scholars have been imprisoned, beheaded, and fled. Even ordinary people like me They all suffer accordingly. The situation this year is getting worse every year, and we don¡¯t know when the world will be in chaos."
"Hey, your news is too late. The world has been in chaos for a long time. It is said that the northwest rebelled more than a month ago, and the heroes in the south also joined forces to raise the flag of righteousness. And I heard that the imperial court sent tens of thousands of soldiers The troops went to suppress it, but they were all killed and driven back by Li Fudong from the northwest."
"What, is this true? Where did you get this news?"
"It's up to you whether you believe it or not. In a few days, when the court can no longer hide it, you will know whether it is true or false."
"So, the earth dragon turning over may be a sign of chaos in the world. Alas, we would rather be a peace dog than leave people in chaos. With the rebellion in the world, our hard days are coming."
¡°Is it possible that the rebels who are being killed today just don¡¯t think they¡¯ve had enough of a good life?¡±
¡¡¡¡.
In the tea house, everyone talked to each other, and after communicating with each other, some frowned, some cried, some left in panic, and some were angry. A disaster is imminent, and all kinds of emotions are unfolding in this small teahouse.
Ning Caichen didn¡¯t know whether the news was true or false, but snakes had their own ways and rats had their own ways, so there was something really wrong with the court. Looking at the man in gray, he looked proud at the moment. Ning Caichen understood somewhat. The man in gray had spread such news and made people panic. He thought he was going to take action in the capital. And according to Ning Caichen's estimation, the man in gray definitely has accomplices, and there must be more than one place to spread rumors.
But no matter what the purpose of these people is, it doesn't matter to Ning Caichen. On the contrary, he can also take the opportunity to enter Dali Prison to rescue his mentor.
"Hush, officers and soldiers are coming."
Someone suddenly whispered something, and the whole teahouse suddenly became quiet.
After a while, as expected, a small group of people walked over from the end of the street. Although there are only about ten people, they are all wearing armor, holding swords and guns in their hands, and their faces are cold. When they reached the teahouse, the group of officers and soldiers suddenly stopped. Everyone in the teahouse couldn't help holding their breath, for fear that if they didn't pay attention, they would be caught in the prison. Some people even secretly regretted why they talked so much just now. This court was not something ordinary people like them could discuss.
Ning Caichen didn't care. These officers and soldiers were more than enough to deal with ordinary people, but in his eyes they were nothing more than ants, and they could be destroyed easily. Moreover, he had long disguised himself and locked his aura with the Nine Palaces Sealing Heaven Lock. It would be as difficult for these officers and soldiers to discover his identity as it would be to climb to the sky. Ning Caichen glanced at the man in gray, and saw that his hand holding the tea bowl tightened, and his whole body was tense, as if he was going to kill someone if something went wrong. This further confirmed Ning Caichen's idea that there was indeed something wrong with this person.
"It's all done. If anyone dares to make a move, don't blame me for being ruthless."
As soon as the pair of officers and soldiers walked in, the leader shouted loudly, and the people following him drew out their swords with a cry and stared at everyone warily. The cold sword light, with evil aura, rushed towards the face, making people shudder. The leader Dui Zheng took out a large stack of papers from his arms. On them were wanted criminals, including Xiong Ba, Jiangnan Seven Monsters and others, as well as Ning Caichen, and many others whom Ning Caichen did not recognize. Every portrait is lifelike and looks like a real person. If they are not disguised, they will be recognized 100%.
Seeing his portrait, Ning Caichen couldn't help but feel awe-struck. There were indeed capable people in the court. Just relying on Yang Tian's dictation, he was able to draw his own appearance in detail. This ability is really not easy.
"Keep your head up."
The leader faced a pile of drawing paper, and a soldier from the side stepped forward, skillfully stretched out his hand to pinch the opponent's chin, and used the other hand to pull the opponent's beard, hair, and face hard from time to time, and by the way, he also smelled the withdrawn hand. See if it smells like a disguise potion. After all this trouble, people understood that disguise is not safe.
Ning Caichen is a magician, so he is not afraid of being??Discover. But the face of the man in gray changed slightly at this moment, and the veins on his palms were jumping. He was obviously wanted.
They searched one by one and arrived at the man in gray in a short time. Just as the soldier was about to reach out, the teacup in the man's hand moved and broke into a dozen pieces, then flew away like a thunderstorm. The soldier was unable to defend himself, his throat was directly penetrated by the broken bowl piece, and he fell to the ground screaming.
"The thief deserves to be killed."
The pair seemed to be on guard, so they took two steps back. Amidst the loud shouts, a cold light passed by their waists, and struck the man in gray with a sword. The officers and soldiers who had been on guard for a long time also surrounded them in an orderly manner.
"He killed someone."
Faced with a sudden surprise, someone in the teahouse suddenly screamed. They were so frightened that they peed, fell to the ground and hid in embarrassment, or fled from the teahouse in panic.
At the same time, the man in gray grabbed the soldier who died tragically, held his feet and threw him towards the pair. With a backhand, he pulled out the sword from the soldier and rushed forward. With a loud bang, he cut the soldier in half with one blow. The soldiers couldn't help but be stunned when they saw this, and then ran out in fear.
The man in gray sneered and caught up with him, but he killed them all with one blow in just a few breaths. He turned around and hugged his fists towards the teahouse, saying: "Xiao Bieli, a certain family, what happened today has affected everyone, and I would like to apologize to you all. However, the court is cruel. If you don't want to die after today, you should leave the capital as soon as possible."
After saying that, the man in gray clothes stepped away and disappeared after a moment.
Ning Caichen moved his feet, hanging dozens of steps away from the man in gray clothes, and followed him slowly and unhurriedly. After walking for several streets, I saw the man in gray scurry into an alley and turned into a house. Ning Caichenqing walked in quietly and saw that the lobby of the house was full of people, and some of them were actually acquaintances.
