Chapter 26, Cold-faced Silver Gun

With the roar of a woman outside, the government officials around the county magistrate gave up a passage. Zu Zhao looked up and saw a woman in purple clothes striding in. At first glance, her figure is quite plump. When she looks at her face again, although the lines are elegant, the stars on her face are really not flattering.

"Chen Youzhi, last time your brother was killed by this fox spirit, you didn't pursue it. Now my brother died because of her, and you still don't pursue it. What's the reason for you? Do you have any unusual relationship with this little fox spirit?" While scolding, the woman came to the county magistrate and waved her hand and pointed randomly.

The yamen lowered their heads one after another and dared not speak or look at her. Zu Zhao was amused in his heart. He knew that women in the Three Kingdoms period actually had no status. Most of them were toys in the hands of men. It's really not easy for this woman to dare to shout and point out to the county magistrate. Looking at the appearance of this county magistrate, isn't she afraid of his wife?

"Madam, don't talk nonsense. Let's talk about it when we get home." Chen Youzhi, the county magistrate, still looks unchanged, and there are no ripples on the plain lake.

The woman didn't follow, and her voice was a little louder and said, "I'm going to say it here. Why are you so cowardly? Now the court sends people down to collect taxes. You can't collect this or that. At that time, you can't pay two taels of silver. How can you keep your head?

"Listen to your wife, how many evil things have happened in the city in the past two days. Isn't it what you sent?" The county magistrate asked coldly.

The woman sat down on the stool and said, "Yes, I sent someone to collect taxes. I'm also thinking about you. You talk for the people, but when you can't pay the money, how many heads can you have?

"This place has been repeatedly invaded by yellow scarf thieves. The people's life has been in deep trouble, but now there is no silver to pay taxes? I am applying to exempt the people from taxes, so that they can cultivate themselves for a while. When they live a good life, they will naturally contribute to the country. Nowadays, many people can't even eat. Don't you force them to go to a dead end by asking them to pay taxes frequently? Now there are thieves everywhere, and the people are blindly chasing after them, because officials ignore the lives of the people. How can I imitate them?" Chen Youzhi said righteously. His words were heard by everyone with a burst of admiration, and the people applauded and cheered.

Zu Zhao said to Chen Zong beside him, "It seems that your county magistrate is very popular."

Chen Zong nodded and said, "Lord Chen is indeed thinking of the people, but his wife is a greedy woman. The most important thing is that one of her brother Tang is plotting in Luoyang. I heard that he is a red man beside the ten permanent servants, so she has never paid attention to the county magistrate and is always shouting."

"I think this county magistrate is not an ordinary person. Why are you so afraid of his wife?" Zu Zhao asked puzzledly.

Chen Zong smiled and said, "Why, I don't dare to take a closer look at it, but I heard that because his wife had saved his life before, he has always respected his wife. Although he doesn't agree with his wife's style, he can't do anything to her."

"If you are really a compassionate and righteous person, such a talent is indeed a waste of talent to be a district and county magistrate here." Zu Zhao couldn't help sighing. After listening to Chen Zong's words, Zu Zhao appreciated Chen Youzhi, the county magistrate, and wanted to see how to deal with the chaos at this moment.

When the woman heard Chen Youzhi's words, she looked even more angry and said, "Chen Youzhi, if it weren't for me, would you have today? If my cousin hadn't protect you, you would have landed on your head. Now that he wants you to collect some taxes, you would have pushed it. Don't forget that he is now doing things for Lord Song. If he offends Lord Song, no one can protect you.

After listening to this woman's words, Zu Zhao thought to himself, isn't Lord Song in her mouth Song Dian, one of the ten permanent attendants? Humph, it's true that one person got a chicken and dog to ascend to heaven. The ten eunuchs were just a few eunuchs. With the favor of the mediocre emperor, a group of small eunuchs around them also began to be proud.

"Those eunuchs who have harmed the country and the people are compared with me. They have committed many injustices and will sooner or later fall into a place without being buried." Chen County magistrate suddenly shook his sleeve robe and scolded fiercely.

The woman probably didn't expect her husband to suddenly get so angry. She was stunned for a moment, then opened her eyes and directly pointed to Chen County Magistrate's forehead and scolded, "Well, you Chen Youzhi, how dare you insult my cousin. If it weren't for us, would you have today? You ungrateful guy, what kind of good man do you pretend to love the people here? Are you going to kill our whole family? He covered his face and wiped the corners of his eyes.

Seeing the woman like this, Chen County magistrate's face softened a little, helped her sit down and said, "Madam's kindness to me will never be forgotten. But Chen Yuanyuan's matter is really not responsible to them. What do you want me to do?

"What's so difficult about selling her to the brothel? She has a good life, and we can also receive money. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone?" The woman immediately said.

"How can you do such a harmful thing as a local parent? Let's stop this matter, madam, don't worry about it anymore. Come on, take your wife back to rest." Chen County magistrate shouted at the surrounding government officials.

As soon as the words fell, four or five government officials turned out and stood beside the woman, trying to invite her back. However, the woman did not want to leave, but looked at Chen Yuanyuan coldly and said, "If you don't deal with this little fox spirit today, I won't leave. If you can't bear it, then you can take care of it.

"No, I'll take care of her affairs. Madam, let's go back and rest first." Chen County magistrate said.

The woman waved her hand and said, "No, either I will deal with her, or you will deal with her in front of me, otherwise the fate between you and I will be over?"

As soon as she said this, the audience was amazed. Even Su De beside Zu Zhao couldn't help saying, "This woman is so unreasonable."

"He is going to force his husband to leave her. If it were me, he would slap her two big mouths and leave early. It's okay if he doesn't do it." Zu Zhao said.

Ma Yuan also leaned over and said, "It's really cowardly to have such a lady riding on her head. I think the county magistrate Chen is a kind and righteous person. Why don't I go out and slap his wife to death and let him go with us? I think his friend is worth making friends.

Zu Zhao raised his hand to stop it and smiled, "Don't mess around. Let's wait and see how he deals with it. It's difficult for Qing officials to break the family's affairs, but I really want to see how the county magistrate Chen solved this matter.

In the face of his wife's intimidation, Chen County Magistrate showed a little helplessness and said, "Madam, for this little thing, how can you talk about the fate of our husband and wife? I will take care of this matter. Please go back to rest first. After saying that, he turned around and said to the officials, "What are you still doing? Why don't you ask your wife to go back to rest?"

"Ye!"

Several vassman answered, walked to the woman and said, "Madam, please wait for me to go back to the county government office to rest?"

"Let it all go." The woman roared loudly, "I just won't leave. I'm going to sell the little fox into the brothel today and find some people to serve her every day."

"Became him back." Chen County magistrate shouted angrily.

Several government officials did not dare to take action. They just looked at the woman and the county magistrate, and the expression on their faces was very helpless.

"Take it away, I forgive you for your innocence." Chen County magistrate knew what the servists were worried about, so he added this sentence.

"Ye!" The four servitos agreed in unison, bowed to the woman and said, "Madam, I'm offended." After saying that, he forcibly pulled her out. Unexpectedly, the woman twisted her fat body and struggled constantly, shouting, "Qingxun, kill these four unlucky guys."

The words fell, and I didn't know where a person flashed from. I saw a flash of the knife, a few clicks, a burst of flesh and blood waste, and heard a few screams. When everyone looked again, the four people who pulled the women's depression were now all in a different place and fell into a pool of blood.

Zu Zhao was stunned. Who took action so quickly is simply killing invisibly. I'm afraid his speed is no less than Feng Luoxue. Ma Yuan also looked straight at his eyes at this moment and praised quietly, "It's so fast that I almost didn't see it clearly."

"So you still saw it?" Zu Zhao asked.

Ma Yuan nodded and said, "I saw the handsome knife skills. I'm afraid that the man's skills are not inferior to me. If it's a weapon competition, I'll be inferior."

After listening to Ma Yuan's words, Zu Zhao was a little uneasy. There were such masters around the woman. I don't know how many of them are hidden now. If she really starts, he can barely escape. Ma Yuan will naturally be fine, but Su De is a literati, who is afraid to escape, and Chen Yi, old and young, at that time I'm afraid I don't have time to take care of them. What should I do?

Seeing the four government officials fall into a pool of blood in an instant, the onlookers all screamed and couldn't help stepping back a few steps, hiding in the corner that they thought was safe and peeping at the movement outside. And the yamen around the county magistrate also took a few steps, pulled out their knives and surrounded the county magistrate.

I saw Chen County magistrate biting his teeth and frowning, with a resentful face. He quietly squatted down and looked at the servant who fell into the pool of blood, sad. Those servists were not prepared at all in the face of the sudden attack, and they didn't have time to close their eyes when they died. Chen County magistrate stroked their eyes very sadly and made them close their eyes. He got up and said quietly, "They have followed me for many years to kill evil thieves together. In addition to the yellow scarf, they have no fear of the enemy. After several fierce battles, they can't be killed by the enemy. Unexpectedly, they are now dead at the hands of their own people. Madam, you are so cruel.

The woman looked coldly at the yaju in the pool of blood and said disdainfully, "A few slaves who don't know how to die deserve it."

Chen County stared at her fiercely, turned his head to look at the man named Qingxun, and said quietly, "Qingxun, I didn't expect you to hide so deeply. Who are you?"

The woman grabbed the words and said, "He was a master to protect me selected by my cousin from the guardian army of the emperor when the yellow scarf thief made trouble. I have never let him show his skills just to protect me better.

"But they didn't want to hurt you." Chen Youzhi said loudly.

"Well, if you dare to touch me, I'm looking for death. He didn't even look at his identity and dared to touch me. Chen Youzhi, are you going to send someone to catch the foxen now or continue to fight against me? The woman said coldly.

Chen County Ling looked at her with resentment and said coldly, "If you want me to hurt my people, I can't do it."

"Well, if you can't do it, I'll do it." The woman pointed coldly to Chen Yuanyuan and said, "Qingxun, go and bring me that little fox spirit. If you are willing to play with her and sell her into the brothel."

The man named Qingxun nodded slightly, showed a strange smile at the corners of his mouth, and slowly walked towards Zu Zhao with a knife. Chen Yuanyuan saw the man coming with a frightened face and hid behind Grandpa Chen Zong, while Ma Yuan and Zu Zhao consciously stood in front of them. In my heart, I'm thinking that if the green rumin wants to force it, I'm afraid it can't be easily won. They may not be able to beat him two-on-one.

Seeing the green rumin approaching step by step, although Chen Yuanyuan hid behind everyone, he trembled with fear and turned pale. She was scared a lot before, but now such a powerful enemy is coming directly than her, how can she not be afraid? Zu Zhao looked back and saw her trembling like a sieve. He couldn't help but feel a little pity and whispered, "Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you before I fall down."

Although this is comfort, Chen Yuanyuan is even more uneasy. If Zu Zhao and others are involved because of herself, wouldn't her guilt be greater? However, at the thought of being sold to a brothel as a prostitute, she was uncontrollable nervous.

Qingxun walked to Ma Yuan and glanced at them. Finally, he saw that there was still a little blood on Ma Yuan's finger. Qingxun asked coldly, "Are you the one who killed the county lieutenant?"

"That's right, it's me. How are you doing?" Ma Yuan was not afraid at all and straightened his chest more straight.

Qingxun said, "I have been working with the county lieutenant for a long time. I know that he has some skills. You can actually kill him in one round. It seems that you are very good at it."

"A little bit of carving and insect skills can't be on the scene, but it's enough to kill such unscrupulous thieves. I think you are so fast that you should be a first-class swordsman. Since you met him today, I really want to ask for a few tips. Ma Yuan said.

"Looking that you are still a little bold, haven't you asked for advice?"

"The surname is Ma Mingyuan, and the word is straight. Half a life of chaos, no fame, no one looks up to it. Ma Yuan said.

Qingxun smiled coldly and said, "It's really a nobody, but I'm not a famous person. I think you are quite righteous and don't want you to die under my knife. If you hand over that little lady, we may still be friends.

Ma Yuan laughed and said, "It seems that we can only be enemies. If I hand her over, I will not be able to do it."

Qing Zhu nodded and smiled, but did not continue to negotiate with Ma Yuan. Instead, he looked at Zu Zhao, looked carefully for a while, and said, "You look so familiar that you seem to have seen him somewhere."

Zui Zhao said, "I don't remember seeing you. Since you are the guide of the Guardian of the Son of Heaven, why did you bend down to this small county to be the bodyguard of an unscrupulous woman?

"Bodyguard?" Qing Zhu frowned doubtfully and obviously didn't know what the word bodyguard in Zu Zhao's mouth meant.

Zu Zhao smiled faintly and said, "That's what the guard means."

He nodded clearly, but did not answer. Instead, he looked at Su De in a blink of an eye. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and said, "Su Shide, the first counselor under Han Yi, a powerful general of Zhang Jiao? Didn't you expect that you weren't dead yet? Today, did God want me to make such a great contribution?

Su De was also shocked to see that this green rumin knew him, but on the surface, he was still calm and asked, "I didn't expect that anyone could recognize me. I'm really surprised. Yes, I'm Su De, but I've been separated from the Yellow Turban Rebel Party for a long time.

Qing Xun smiled and said, "The yellow scarf thief is afraid to make trouble, and everyone in the world will kill him. One day he will be a yellow scarf thief, and he will be a yellow scarf thief for life. The reward offered to you at the beginning was lower than that offered to Zhang Liang and others. If I capture you back at this moment, I can get ahead and don't need to do anything with a knife guard.

"Listen to you, are you also the one who wants to lead troops to gallop on the battlefield?" Zu Zhao asked.

"I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and naturally hope to do a lot, but later, before I could be promoted, I was selected to the palace to protect the emperor and could not use my skills. Later, he was sent here to protect the county magistrate's wife. Lord Song has a life-saving kindness to me, so naturally I can only listen to it. Qingxu said.

Zu Zhao thought to himself that although Song Dian sent someone to protect the emperor, he was actually monitoring the emperor. No one in the world knew about the fight between their ten permanent servants and He Jin. Whoever can control the emperor can intimidate the four directions, and the person who uses this scheme of the emperor to make the princes use it to be Cao Cao, but this is all later. Now Cao Cao is a snake that has not yet become a dragon.

"In this case, why do you have to live here? Why can't he show his talent?" Zu Zhao said. He really doesn't want to fight with this Qingxun. At that time, he is afraid that he will end up with both sides, which is not good for everyone.

Before Qingxun could answer, the county magistrate's wife shouted, "What are you talking to them there?" Can't you think the opposite? Get the little fox here quickly."

Hearing this, the corners of his eyes slanted and glanced back. His face immediately became extremely indifferent, as if ice scum was about to roll down from the corners of his eyes, which was really scary.

"Do you automatically hand over people or let me do it myself?" Qingxun said coldly.

Zu Zhao clenched his fist, pushed Chen Yuanyuan and her grandfather back a little and said, "We want us to hand her over unless you step over from our body."

"Good backbone and courage, then I will give you a good time." He said clearly, showed a bright knife and made a posture to attack.

Zu Showa and Ma Yuan also set out their posture and prepared to compete with this Qingx for hundreds of rounds. Unexpectedly, before they could do it, Chen County Magistrate suddenly shouted and said, "Don't do it. Qingxu, you killed the brother who shared life and death with me. Let's calculate this account first.

"Chen Youzhi, are you crazy? If you go on like this, this is the reason why we and wife are really here. With that, she took out a pair of scissors from her arms and pulled up a bunch of hair to cut it.

"One night of husband and wife, do you really want to do this?" Chen Youzhi asked coldly.

"It's not me who want to do this, but you want me to do this." Madam said coldly.

Chen Youzhi looked at him for a while and shouted, "Come on, bring me my gun." As the sound stopped, a man came out from behind him, carrying an 18-foot long gun. The head of the gun was shining, as if it were made of silver. He took the long gun, danced casually, and actually put on a very handsome and domineering posture. Zu Zhao entered and was overjoyed. He saw Zhao Yun play with a gun and felt that Zhao Yun's shooting method was really amazing. Unfortunately, he couldn't dance at all with Zhao Yun's gun.

Now when I see this Chen county magistrate's gun, it looks much more erect than Zhao Yun's one. I don't know what his strength is, and I can't help but look forward to it.

"Chen Youzhi, do you really want to break my relationship with husband and wife?" The woman asked loudly.

Chen Youzhi ignored it and straightened the long gun. The pace is like the wind, really a man like the wind. Seeing Chen Youzhi coming with a gun, Qingxun abandoned Zu Zhao and others and waved a knife to greet him. The two met like lightning, and the two weapons collided in the air, splashing sparks and making a harsh sound.

"Cold-faced silver gun?" Su De suddenly came up with such a sentence, pulling back Zu Zhao, who was watching the war wholeheartedly, and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Su De pointed to Chen County Magistrate and said, "He is a cold-faced silver gun. When I was with the Yellow Turban Army, I had been singing all the way, but later the army met a man who played a silver gun. Under his attack, the Yellow Turban Army was defeated repeatedly. At that time, I was forced to leave the Yellow Turban Army.

"Have you seen him?" Zu Zhao doubted that if he had met Chen County Magistrate, he would have recognized it long ago. At this time, he recognized it. Su De told Zu Zhao that he only commanded the battle from a high distance, so he did not see the face of the gunman clearly. Every time he fought, the man never gave his name and rushed at the sight of people, which caught the yellow scarf striker unprepared. Many masters were stabbed to death by him. Because he refused to report his name, the Yellow Turban Army could not find out his information, so they all called him a cold-faced silver gun. Now that I see his shooting like this, I know that the county magistrate of Chen was the cold-faced silver gun that defeated Zhang Liang's main force at that time.

When Zu Zhao heard this, he was surprised and happy. He did not expect that there were such excellent people in the Three Kingdoms. Perhaps due to his personality problems, he was buried in the history of the Three Kingdoms. Now that he has come to this world, he must dig out such talents for his own use, and not let them be buried again.

"No matter what I do, I will definitely bring him to me. Zhao Yun can't be with me, so I took this cold-faced silver gun and Chen County magistrate. One day I met Zhao Yun and asked them to compete with each other to see who is better. Zu Zhao secretly had a plan in his heart.

And by this time, the battle has entered a white-hot state!
