Chapter 30, Become a County Head Magistrate is Quite Fun, I Want To Play For a Few Years
At this moment, a man in armor who looked like a military commander suddenly appeared at the door.
He stood outside the door and very keenly smelled the bloody smell in the mansion.
At the same time, he saw He Chuan and the others who were talking.
He frowned and his hand was already on the hilt of his sword.
“What’s going on inside? Who are you?”
The family members immediately panicked and didn’t know what to say.
However, the girl’s father whispered something in He Chuan’s ear.
He explained that the person who came was the city guard commander of the county. He was a decent person and was completely different from Zhang Muzhi.
He Chuan understood and turned his head to look at the commander. He smiled with interest.
“Why don’t you go in and take a look yourself?”
“How dare you!”
He pulled out his long sword with a stern look and shouted, “Where is Lord Zhang? Who are you!”
“You’re quite cautious.”
He Chuan put his hands behind his back and said, “I’ve already killed Zhang Muzhi, and so have those who came to attend the wedding banquet. What do you want?”
“What…”
That person seemed a little surprised, but there was no anger or hatred in his eyes.
He looked at He Chuan’s extremely young and tender face. It would be a lie if he said that he didn’t have any doubts.
Such a ten-year-old child killed a late-stage third-rate martial artist like Zhang Muzhi?
To be honest, not to mention that he didn’t believe it, perhaps no martial artist in the entire world who had even the slightest foundation would believe it!
At the age of ten, it was already good enough to be able to draw qi into one’s body.
However, the smell of blood that was constantly leaking out from the courtyard could not be faked.
There were definitely many people who died in the backyard.
It was probably just as the child said, there were no more living people.
However, how could he do it by himself?
An idea flashed through the commander’s mind, and he thought of a certain possibility.
There were many unworldly experts who frequently traveled the world, and they would punish evil and spread good wherever they saw injustice.
Zhang Muzhi was notorious, and it was hard to survive if he met him.
If nothing unexpected happened, this child was the disciple of that expert. Perhaps, he was watching from not far away!
To be able to kill so many people without leaving a trace, it was very likely that he was a first-rate warrior!
Such an existence was definitely not something he could deal with.
Hence, he put his weapon back.
“You guys should hurry up and leave!”
“Don’t stay in the city for too long.”
“Someone will probably notice something strange tomorrow. This news will spread very quickly.”
He Chuan’s smile did not change, “Leave? Did I say I was leaving?”
“Then what are you going to do?”
“Being a county head magistrate is quite fun, I want to play for a few years.”
“A few… years?”
The commander was stunned. His first reaction was that this child’s brain had gone crazy. How could becoming a country head magistrate be a child’s play?
But on second thought.
Why would a child be interested in such a thing?
It must be the intention of that expert.
He just did not know what exactly they were going to do.
Just as he was thinking, He Chuan’s figure suddenly moved.
His speed was astonishingly fast.
In the dark night, only a shadow flashed by.
When he reappeared, the commander felt a chill on his back, and his entire body was already bound by an unfamiliar inner qi.
“How is this possible…”
He turned pale with fright.
Could inner qi be controlled so precisely?
You must be joking, right?
Just then, He Chuan’s voice sounded from above.
“Don’t be so surprised.”
“You are the commander of the garrison troops, right? I want to be the county head magistrate, so what should you do at this time?”
A strong sense of oppression came over.
This commander felt that he was as insignificant as an ant in front of this child.
He gritted his teeth and hesitated for a long time before slowly saying, “Seal off the news and cooperate with your actions.”
“Very good, a smart choice.”
“Even if I help you block the news, it’s useless. The imperial court will send people to check the political achievements every once in a while. How are you going to get away with it?”
“This is not something you should consider. I have my own ways.”
He Chuan clapped his hands and jumped down from the high wall, pressing on his shoulder, “The imperial court will not care about the life and death of a small county head magistrate. In this kind of world, it’s not a big deal to have dozens or even hundreds of small characters die. Do you want to be such a small character?”
He kept silent. The meaning of his words was a little deep, and it was difficult to answer.
“I see ideals and ambitions in your eyes, what a pity.”
He Chuan looked at him, “The only thing was the lack of guts.”
“… What exactly do you want to do?” In the end, he still asked this question.
“To return a peaceful and prosperous era to the people.”
The commander turned pale with fright, “You want to rebel???”
“Maybe, at least not now.”
He Chuan yawned, “I don’t want to hear anyone talk about this tomorrow, can you do it?”
The commander looked down at the light blue inner qi wrapped around his body and smiled bitterly, “Do I have a choice?”
“Of course.”
He Chuan smiled and said, “I won’t kill you because you and Zhang Muzhi are not on the same side. If you don’t agree, I can just leave.”
The commander was silent for a moment, “Then what can I get?”
He Chuan knew that his target had taken the bait. He smiled and said, “A chance to realize his dream.”
“Countless people in this world have died.”
“The seeds of hatred have long been planted in people’s hearts.”
“With the change of times, the dynasty will change sooner or later.”
“Now they just lack a person to lead them.”
“You don’t want to devote your life to such a rotten dynasty, right?”
“Follow me. Even if you can’t change the world now, at least you can change Qingyuan County.”
The commander looked deeply at He Chuan, “Alright! I promise you, but you have to ensure the safety of my family. Once the incident is exposed, this crime will exterminate my family, I can’t bear it.”
“Of course.”
He Chuan snapped his fingers and retracted all the inner qi that he had released.
The commander felt his body lighten, and his trust in He Chuan increased a little.
That expert who did not show up was really powerful. Just based on his meticulous control, most of the martial artists on the first level probably could not do it!
With such a person as a backer.
It seemed…
It wasn’t impossible to overthrow this decadent dynasty?
The commander shook his head violently. He was frightened by this terrifying thought of his.
How could he think of rebelling?
