Rising: Ten Thousand Years Chapter 22: : never again

Li Zhen handed the personal backpack to Uncle Liu: "Uncle, this is a relic that Liu Quan gave me before his death, please keep it away."

The all-powerful rich man in Hangcheng County immediately broke down and cried bitterly after seeing the backpack. Kneeling on the ground and looking up to the sky:

"My son!"

Everyone burst into tears.

Soon, the family members of the teachers who heard the news also rushed to the gate of the city, and some fainted on the spot after hearing the bad news. Some knelt on the ground and wailed loudly, and some screamed in the direction of Yanziji.

Li Zhen was in tears and didn't know how to speak. More than a dozen people survived me, and I might not pass the exam...

The headmaster walked up to Li Zhen with red eyes, and asked in a trembling voice, "How did you do in the exam?"

"Probably...failed."

"Alas."

The headmaster let out a long sigh, and quietly left with his hands behind his back.

"Fate, I have no dragon veins in Hangcheng County, fate, fate."

Hearing this long sigh, Li Zhen felt pain in his heart like a needle prick, guilt, remorse, and shame welled up in his heart.

Maybe, there is another chance, maybe, if you can do it all over again. Maybe, I will choose to fill in the standard answers that can get full marks instead of sticking to my own thinking?

"Since my son left this to you before I left, you should keep it well and keep it."

Uncle Liu took a deep breath, wiped away his tears and stood up, patted Li Zhen on the shoulder, and left without saying a word.

Princess Zhangmeng frowned, hesitating and worrying about something.

A moment later, only the sound of horseshoes in the city was heard, and more than fifty horsemen rolled over. The leader was Uncle Liu, but he saw that he was holding a knife in his hand, and his face was extremely tragic.

Behind them are more than fifty attendants who also hold knives.

"What are you doing!"

Zhang yelled loudly.

Uncle Liu swung his knife and slashed at the horse's buttocks. The horse neighed and ran wildly. He said nothing.

The crowd hurriedly gave way, watching helplessly as the group of more than fifty riders disappeared into the rolling yellow sand. Use your toes to figure out what they are going to do.

Li Zhen also got on the horse and shouted, "I'm going too!"

As soon as he got on the horse, Zhang Meng grabbed Li Zhen by the neck and pulled him off, shouting: "You young man, why are you joining in the fun? Stay in the city for me."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Meng told the people around him: "Gather a hundred soldiers and go to Yanziji. The Liu family must not lose anything."

"Yes!"

It was already an hour later when the men and horses of the Hangcheng County government were assembled, and the soldiers were fully armed and majestic.

Zhang Meng stepped on a war horse and ordered the post-officer: "Take care of the county."

"Yes, Princess."

More than a hundred riders also left on the yellow sand.

Li Zhen clenched his fists tightly, his veins were heaving, he felt ashamed and guilty.

Seeing that they are all gone, they are all scattered. It was the second time to get on the horse again, looked at Qi Lengzi, and asked, "Are you afraid?"

Qi Lengzi smirked: "What do you think?"

'Drive'

As soon as they flattered, Li Zhen and Qi Lengzi also rode horses, biting their predecessors and leaving.

"Li Zhen!"

"Li Zhen, what are you doing!"

"Li Zhen is back. Come back!"

“…”

The teachers and leaders of the school shouted loudly, but their voices couldn't keep up with the killing intent!

It's a one-day journey to Yanziji, so many things can happen during this time.

It has been five hours since Li Zhen and his two caught up with the cavalry of the government. The people in the government were extremely tired and ran for five hours.

They were resting, Zhang Meng saw Li Zhen coming, sighed, and said nothing this time.

"Haven't you caught up with Uncle Liu yet?"

Li Zhen asked eagerly.

Zhang Meng shook his head: "Old Liu is eager for revenge and marched all the way. We set off an hour late, but at this time we couldn't even see the traces. Too much delay. How did you do in the exam?"

Li Zhen bowed his head: "It seems that he failed the ranking."

"Forget it, it's time to fall. I've heard that your knowledge is the number one in Hangcheng County. If you don't pass the exam, Hangcheng County will no longer have extravagant hopes. After returning, you will stay as the principal of the school. Teacher. I think you have the qualifications."

"Yes."

"Have you had enough rest?"

All soldiers stood up.

"Go!"

Hundreds of riders started on the road again and headed towards Yanziji. This time there were more Li Zhen and Qi Lengzi in the team.

After another five hours, everyone was exhausted and finally arrived at Yanziji.

Yanziji was quiet, without any movement or trace.

Zhang Meng quickly asked: "Is it here?"

Li Zhen nodded: "Yes, that day in this canyon, a horse thief descended from the sky with a zipline. They intercepted from the front and chased from the rear. If I guessed correctly, they have a nest near here."

Zhang Meng's eyelids twitched, and he looked at the silent Yanziji and yelled, "It's not good. Old Liu and the others are dead!"

As soon as the words fell, four or five hundred riders suddenly came out of Yanziji's canyon slowly. The leader was a young man wearing a red official robe like Zhang Meng's.

When Zhang Meng saw this person, his heart turned cold, but he forced himself to smile and said, "Princess Wang."

The young man looked at Zhang Meng and the others with contempt on his face, came slowly on horseback, and shouted loudly: "I heard the news that the princess of Hangcheng County came to Jiahe County with troops and horses to plot to commit crimes. I don't know if there is such a thing?"

Zhang Meng squinted his eyes and said: "There is no such thing as crossing the border. I'm just here to suppress bandits."

"Hahahaha, bandit suppression? Did you hear that? Bandit suppression?"

Princess Wang sneered, and the hundreds of cavalry laughed.

"It's ridiculous, sad, and shameful. I don't know if there are bandits in Jiahe County? Don't say that Jiahe County is outstanding and the people are simple. Even if there are bandits in Jiahe County, it's your turn, Princess Hangzhou Come all the way to do it for me?"

Zhang Meng was silent for a moment, and said: "I, Liu Donglai, a rich man from Hangcheng County, led more than 50 people to Yanziji, and now there is no news. I am going to find them now."

"Joke! How do you know that people from your city have come to Yanziji? Are you talking in your sleep? I, Jiahe County, you can search if you want?"

"It's not searching, it's looking."

"Okay, since you insist. Then you can go to Jiahe County alone to find it in your own name."

"You..."

"What am I? You brought soldiers into my Jiahe County, how can I, Wang, have any face? Do you want me to sue you for crossing the border?"

Looking at the hundreds of people blocking Yanziji, Zhang Meng weighed the pros and cons for a moment, and immediately knew a cruel fact. If Liu Donglai really came to Yanziji, it would be too late to say anything. It really is an official bandit.

"Let's go back to Hangcheng County."

"Wait."

Princess Wang spoke up.

"What else?"

Princess Wang smiled~IndoMTL.com~pointing to the ashen-faced Li Zhen, he said: "I seem to have heard that this young man seems to be going to catch up for the exam, and he narrowly escaped the death of a horse thief from another place, right? Just right, I, Jiahe County, caught a horse thief in the past two days, this young man, please come to my jail in Jiahe County, and find out if he is the horse thief who robbed him that day."

Zhang Meng's complexion changed wildly, and he shouted loudly: "Stop talking nonsense. This is my student from Hangcheng County, how do you know the horse thief? Go, go back."

Princess Wang looked at Li Zhen with a smile, and continued: "Young man, don't miss this opportunity. If you were wronged that day, I am the one who decides for you today. You can go to my prison in Jiahe County to identify him. You just need to identify him. This officer will be able to deal with the horse thief immediately, and then take you to suppress the bandits."

Li Zhen's eyes are full of resentment, he has already seen it clearly, official bandits, outright official bandits. Call yourself to identify, isn't that the meat bun beats the dog and never returns? As long as he dared to go to Jiahe County, he would never come back with ten lives.

Zhang Mengsheng was afraid that Li Zhen wouldn't be able to see through these things, so he quickly grabbed Li Zhen's horse by the reins, forced himself to turn his head away, and said, "Go back to Hangzhou County."

More than a hundred riders returned quietly.

"Hahahaha,"

There was an earth-shattering laughter from Yanziji.

Princess Wang pointed at the people who were leaving in desperation, and taunted her eyes: "Suppress the bandits? Hahaha. Also suppress the bandits? Give you ten guts, do you dare to take a step into Yanziji?"

At this time, someone stepped forward and whispered: "How about the fifty or so people from Hangcheng County?"

Princess Wang's eyes turned cold: "You dare to take revenge? Kill it. Do it cleanly."

"Yes!"

With swords and swords, blood flows like rivers.

Since then, Liu Donglai took people to Yanziji and never returned...
