Chapter 276 I'll deal with you later



When they heard the heroic young man mention the murder committed by Zhang Xianzhong, the seven people present couldn't help but show angry expressions.

They were not formal constables, but the first batch of students from Yushan Martial Arts Academy. They took advantage of the holidays to come to the Lantian County Government for an internship. After seeing the crimes committed by the serial killer Zhang Xianzhong, they could not help but sign up to participate in the operation.

The government originally planned to refuse this because the local government only had a limited number of guns and according to the law they could not be issued to these military students in training.

However, these martial arts students said that they had no need for guns. The young man with a talent for chemistry even used his own sword to demonstrate to them the peerless martial arts he had learned at Yushan Martial Arts Academy.

Looking at the white sword energy that was swung out like a silk thread, the old constable in the yamen who had never heard of the strange man could not help but be stunned.

Before these proud military students could enjoy the flattery and respect of the veteran detectives, the magistrate of Lantian County, who came from the Tongmenghui, appeared.

He first scolded this group of military students with a dark face, then fined them five silver dollars for the crime of destroying public property, and ordered them to make up for their crime and capture Zhang Xianzhong back to the county government as soon as possible to be beheaded in public.

In this way, eight extremely talented military students participated in the operation to capture Zhang Xianzhong as temporary workers.

At the same time, because the rumors about Dongtangyu were too terrifying, those old hands did not dare to come here rashly even if they had guns, so they pushed these eight fearless young men here.

Coincidentally, Yun Ding, the strongest among the eight, felt that Zhang Xianzhong was most likely hiding here, so he readily accepted the arrangement of the government office.

These eight people are all extraordinary people with the talent of practicing Qi, so their travel speed is naturally extraordinary.

Soon, the eight people arrived at the place where Zhang Xianzhong and others had sunk their bodies and barbecued them.

Looking at the human oil floating on the surface of the pool and the vaguely visible white bones at the bottom of the pool, all the young people present couldn't help but turn pale and feel extremely uncomfortable. The short boy who had just spoken couldn't help but hold on to the shoulders of his companion and vomited with a "wow".

Yun Ding's face was also a little pale, but he still squatted down with the knife in hand and checked the condition of the ashes and pig bones.

"It's still warm!" Yun Ding rubbed the ashes off his fingertips, stood up and said, "Someone started a fire and grilled meat here not long ago. Even if it wasn't Zhang Xianzhong, it must be a wanted criminal who must not be seen by the public - brothers, we have come to the right place!"

Hearing this, the seven people looked at each other and could see the excitement and excitement in each other's eyes.

"Great! I must catch this guy, otherwise I will be wasting my vomited lunch!"

The short boy said through gritted teeth.

Yun Ding patted his back soothingly, looked at the people around him and said softly: "Not far ahead is the Qin Palace's villa in Dongtangyu. I guess they are probably resting there. We will form a team of four and split into groups. Be careful not to be left alone. Although the martial arts taught in the academy are powerful, we have not been practicing for long after all, and there is still a possibility of capsizing in the ditch..."

"Brother Yun, don't worry, we know the pros and cons!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, then drew their weapons and headed towards the Qin King's villa.

After they left, two figures walked out from behind the huge rock next to them, looking at their backs with strange eyes.

"Are they the first-term students of Yushan Martial Arts Academy?"

“That should be it!”

Zhao Lihe admired him and chuckled as he said, "I know that boy surnamed Yun. He is the son of Yun Sizhe, the president of the Tongmenghui Yushan branch. He is only fifteen years old this year, but he has an amazing talent for practicing Qi. It is said that he gained a sense of Qi in just one day."

"Oh?" Zuo Yu raised his eyebrows and nodded, "He is indeed a genius. Zhang Xianzhong should not be his opponent."

Zhao Lihe said calmly, "If it was a head-on battle, Zhang Xianzhong would not be able to defeat any of these eight martial arts students. However, fighting is not just about head-on attacks. There are also sneak attacks, traps, drugs and many other despicable tricks. I dare say that if it weren't for you and me today, at least three of these eight bastards would have died at the hands of Zhang Xianzhong!"

Zuo Yu smiled and said, "Do you have so little confidence in them?"

Zhao Lihe chuckled and said, "How about making a bet?"

Zuo Yu responded without hesitation: "Okay, five hundred Gray Mist Coins, do you want to take it?"

Zhao Lihe was slightly stunned: "Good fellow, is the bet so big?"

Zuo Yu smiled and said, "Just tell me whether you want to accept it or not!"

Zhao Lihe thought about it, shook his head and said, "Forget it, I can't bear to see them get hurt, I still have to take action, so I won't give you money for nothing..."

While chatting, the two had already gone through the first course of soup.

The surrounding scenery suddenly became beautiful, with layers of green pines and cypresses, as well as many strange peaks and rocks. Even the road leading to the Qin Palace was neatly paved with shale.

If there is any shortcoming, it is that it is not well maintained and the stone road is filled with all kinds of fallen leaves.

After walking along this stone road, you can see the spacious and comfortable Tangyu Villa of the Prince of Qin's Mansion.

Just as Zhao Lihe said, Zhang Xianzhong used every possible means to deal with his pursuers.

He had turned the entire Qin Palace into a bandit's lair, with simple but deadly traps set everywhere.

For example, the area about three steps behind the courtyard gate is filled with more than a dozen extremely insidious wooden thorn traps.

The surface of these traps was covered with fallen leaves and a thin layer of soil, with more than a dozen sharp wooden spikes buried inside. The solid earth walls around them were also inlaid with seven or eight sharp wooden spikes pointing diagonally downward.

People who step into the trap will not only be stabbed or even have their feet pierced, but if they try to pull it out, they will also suffer secondary damage from the wooden thorns on the earth wall.

There are countless insidious traps like this in this villa.

Not long after the eight martial arts students entered the villa, three of them were injured.

Two of them had their legs and feet injured by the insidious wooden spike trap, but one of them, who had practiced horizontal training, was caught off guard and was not injured in the trap. Instead, he shattered all the wooden spikes.

Seeing this scene, the martial arts student who practiced horizontal training took the initiative to ask to walk in front and lead the way for his companions.

"Didn't they ever think of sending someone to investigate on the roof?"

On the roof of Prince Qin's Mansion, Zuo Yu's faint voice came from beside.

Zhao Lihe did not answer Zuo Yu's question, but just watched their actions with a dark face, wanting to see how shameful these bastards could be.

Just as they had guessed, Zhang Xianzhong and his two companions used all the tricks they could think of and took advantage of their knowledge of the Qin Palace to deal with the eight martial arts students.

He made traps, sleeping pills, lime, and even chili powder into traps and sprinkled them into the eyes of a martial arts student.

The martial arts student who rashly pushed open the door and triggered the trap let out a shrill scream. The man hiding behind the door appeared quietly, holding the handle of the dagger in his right hand, resting it on the palm of his left hand, and silently stabbed the sharp dagger in his hand into the enemy's chest.

Seeing that the sharp blade was about to pierce the boy's heart, Zhao Lihe stretched out his right hand with a cold face.

"boom--"

With a roar, golden lightning fell from the sky, instantly shattering the tiles on the roof and bringing the due punishment to the evildoers.

In just a moment, the man holding the dagger was struck by lightning and turned into a charred corpse. His instantly carbonized hands still maintained the shape of holding the dagger, but his body had already lost its voice.

The martial arts student whose face was covered with chili powder was also affected by the lightning. His hair stood up and he looked extremely embarrassed.

At the same time, the military students who came to support from outside the school saw this scene and quickly turned their heads to look at the roof behind them.

They saw a heroic young man in a green shirt standing on the roof, looking down at them with a cold face. Next to the young man was a handsome young man with black hair and red eyes, holding a folding fan with an amused look on his face, as if he was watching some interesting show.

The moment he saw the heroic young man's face, Yun Ding's pupils shrank, and regardless of the current situation, he knelt on one knee decisively.

"I am Yun Ding, a first-term student of Yushan Martial Arts Academy. I am honored to meet your Majesty!"

"……What?!"

"Your Majesty is coming?!"

Hearing Yun Ding's words, the martial arts students present were suddenly shocked and quickly knelt on one knee in the direction of Zhao Lihe.

Looking at the martial arts students kneeling on one knee in front of him, with their heads lowered and sweating, Zhao Lihe said calmly: "It seems that you also know how bad your performance is..."

Yun Ding's body trembled, he gritted his teeth and raised his head and said: "Your Majesty, it's all my fault--"

Zhao Lihe said calmly: "Did I ask you to look up?"

Yun Ding quickly closed his mouth, lowered his head again, and his body trembled slightly.

Then, Zhao Lihe jumped down from the roof and walked slowly towards Yun Ding.

The next second, a big hand placed on the hilt of Yun Ding's sword and slowly pulled it out.

...Who is it, Your Majesty?

Why did he draw his sword? Was he going to kill himself?

An emotion called fear emerged in Yun Ding's heart, and his mind seemed to float high into the sky.

But no matter what, Yun Ding still maintained his original appearance and did not move at all.

Finally, a voice from behind brought him back to the world from his trance.

"Everyone, get up. I will deal with you later..."

Following Zhao Lihe's calm words, everyone felt relieved and quickly looked up behind them.

Zhao Lihe was seen holding Yun Ding's long sword in his hand and walking towards the northwest corner of the Qin Palace.

With every step he took, radiating golden lightning would emanate from his body, like the God of Thunder descending to earth, destroying all the surrounding grass, walls, and even houses.

“Boom boom—”

With the roar of thunder, the walls and houses of the Qin Palace collapsed and the air was filled with smoke and dust.

Zhao Lihe swung his sword casually, and golden lightning turned into a streak of light that blasted towards the house, instantly chopping the man behind the door into pieces.

After dealing with the last person, Zhao Lihe fixed his eyes on the house where Zhang Xianzhong was hiding. He ignored all the terrain and traps and walked towards him.

In the courtyard behind them, Yun Ding and his eight companions were stunned.

Zuo Yu quietly appeared beside them, patted Yun Ding's shoulder with a smile, and when he turned his neck stiffly and looked at him, he winked and said with a smile: "Little guys, you still have a long way to go!"
