Chapter 72
Guijun is located at the southernmost tip of Liangzhou, but the government office is located at the northernmost tip of Guijun.

The county is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with beautiful scenery.

A wide river flows from west to south, and then to the east. The county city uses this natural river as a moat and builds it on the north side of it.

On the north side of the county city, there are countless steep mountains, which are natural guards.

Generally speaking, the whole city is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If the army wants to attack, they can only cross the river and enter from the three gates in the east, west and south.

The first thing Chu Tang saw was the south gate of the county.

Under the afterglow, the city wall five or six feet high cast a large shadow on the ground.

And Chu Tang had just walked across the bridge over the moat, trusting his horse to rein in the open space for nearly 20 feet, came to the south gate, got off his horse, and looked up.

The six to seven feet high city wall is covered with moss, not to mention ordinary people, even the vast majority of martial arts masters cannot jump over it.

But at this time, Chu Tang ignored it. At a height of six or seven feet, under the perfect ladder cloud, it was nothing more than kicking the city wall with two extra kicks to borrow strength, so that he could easily cross it.

But at this time the city gate is open, so there is no need to spend that much effort.

Show the token of arrest to the guards guarding the city, and you will pass smoothly all the way.

After entering the city, the night falls and the lights come on.

This is a county with a population of 10, and it is also the seat of a county. It is a place that the people of the whole county yearn for, and there are many people coming and going.

Even at night, the county without a curfew is very lively. There are ordinary people leisurely traveling at night, there are also warriors ostentatiously passing through the city, and there are even literati looking for flowers and flowers. It is a bustling scene.

Chu Tang just felt the rare smell of fireworks for a while, and didn't dare to delay. He asked someone for directions, and went straight to the county office.

The county office is located on a sloping land in the center of the city. The terrain is quite high. If you look down, you can overlook the lights of half the city.

When Chu Tang arrived at the gate of the county yamen, it was already completely dark, and the lanterns hung high outside the gate, brightly lit.

The tall yamen was not closed, it was still open, and from time to time there were arresters coming in and out.

Chu Tang didn't hesitate anymore this time, and went straight up, revealed his identity to the gatekeeper, and asked about Zhuo Li'en, Fang Kai and others.

When the gatekeeper heard that he was looking for Zhuo Lien, he only asked Chu Tang to wait a while before he went in to report.

Seeing this, Chu Tang was slightly happy: "Zuo Lien is back? In the county office?"

I can't help but hesitate and feel uneasy in my heart, for fear of hearing other bad news.

After a while, the gatekeeper came back, and a person jumped out from behind him, went straight to Chu Tang, and shouted from a distance: "Chu Tang, you are not dead! I am relieved to see you!"

Chu Tang didn't need to see who was coming, he knew who it was just by hearing the voice.

It was Shi Zhifeng!
The head of the stone class who has always been unable to spit out ivory!
"Old Shi..." Chu Tang's voice was trembling, and he said that when a fellow countryman saw a fellow countryman, his eyes were full of tears, and the joy of seeing an old friend again under the crisis of life and death was really hard to describe in words.

Shi Zhifeng rushed up and hugged Chu Tang, showing his deep affection, and said dryly, "Chu Tang, I thought you... If there is something wrong with you, how can I explain it to Lao Xu! Fortunately, you are fine! Let me see, are you hurt?"

Chu Tang forced himself to calm down a little, and said joyfully, "Old Shi, didn't I say that I am good at lightness kung fu, so running for my life is no problem. But you, how did you escape? Everyone...are you alright?"

When Shi Zhifeng heard this, his expression was a little lonely, and he said angrily, "Six or seven brothers were killed! You bastard, sooner or later we will have revenge!"

Chu Tang felt strange, although it was cruel to say it, but they had a group of about 40 people, under the pursuit of dozens of warriors led by a five-level master, they only lost six or seven people, and the battle damage was not bad, not annihilated. I can handle it.

He couldn't help asking: "What's the specific situation? How did you escape from the pursuit of so many people? They seem to have a five-level master..."

"It's thanks to meeting a nobleman!" Shi Zhifeng was both scared and grateful.

"Your Majesty?"

"Let's go see Chief Zhuo first, and talk as we go." Shi Zhifeng greeted Chu Tang into the yamen, and talked as he walked, explaining the whole story in detail.

It turned out that when everyone saw Zhuo Lien throwing the "hidden weapon" and heard the yell, everyone understood it, turned their heads or jumped or flew into the river at the same time, and then quickly swam to the bank.

Most swam to the shore closest to the boat.

As soon as they got ashore, Fang Kai and Shi Zhifeng mingled together, did not find Chu Tang, and saw him still surrounded on the boat from a distance, and immediately became anxious like ants on a hot pot, intending to go back to rescue, but the chasing soldiers also followed When they landed, under the urging of Zhuo Lien and others, they could only run wildly together and flee northward for their lives.

After fleeing for more than ten miles, it was getting dark and was overtaken by pursuers.Facing the woman in red in the fifth realm, Zhuo Lien, Fang Kai, and Deng Kuan teamed up, but they were all lost and injured one after another.

In the end, Zhuo Lien broke out his secret skills and wanted to hurt both opponents, but his two fists were no match for four hands. Under the coercion of the thieves, he not only did not hurt the opponent's five-level master, but also exhausted his own skills .

The entire army was about to be annihilated, and when everyone was desperate, rescuers descended from the sky!

A team of black-clothed guards who had just passed by the nearest pier from across the river from Meng County happened to appear, and found that someone was chasing and killing a group of arresters, and for the sake of serving the imperial court, they all came to their aid.

There are only seven people in this team of black guards, but the leader is a master of the five realms, and the rest are all four realms!

The number of people is not as good as that of the culprits, but the overall combat power is better. Coupled with the counterattack under the boost of the morale of the arresters, the situation is suddenly reversed, and the culprits are chasing and fighting.

The thieves jumped into the boat one after another and fled for their lives.

Seeing that it was getting dark, the Black Clothes Guards were afraid of being ambushed, so they didn't pursue them.Afterwards, they said that they were under orders and could not delay, and they had to rush to the county town of Guijun overnight, so they asked Zhuo Lien if he wanted to go on the road together.

Accompanied by a master, Zhuo Lien was naturally overjoyed, counted the number of people, carried the damaged brother onto the boat of the Black Guard, asked the Black Guard to wait for a while, and saw that no other brothers followed, and then left by boat.

They traveled fast all the way without landing, and returned to the county office this morning.

After hearing this, Chu Tang was in an inexplicable mood. No wonder he couldn't find any news in Yang County.

"Black Clothes Guard..." When Chu Tang heard this title, his heart moved slightly.

He had heard the name of Black Clothes Guards, and knew that they were a special institution of the imperial court, composed of martial arts masters, to suppress the forces in the world.

After all, the police are more responsible for the county's law and order, with less salary and less armed force. It is inevitable that they will be helpless in the face of Jianghu masters. There must be some more professional and powerful people to deal with various Jianghu forces.

This is how the Black Clothes Guard came into being.

But after all, masters are rare, and many masters are unwilling to join the imperial court, so the manpower of the Black Clothes Guards has always been tight, and they cannot be everywhere.

Not to mention the county level, even a county is rare. They only have a station in the state city, and they are usually stationed in the state city when they have nothing to do.

Because it was too far away, Chu Tang had only heard of their names in the small place of Shi County, but could not find out the specific situation. Even Xu Wei didn't know the operating mechanism of the Black Clothes Guard.

I didn't expect to hear the appearance of the legendary Black Clothes Guard today!

Just as he was about to ask more about this, Shi Zhifeng first asked Chu Tang about the past few days.

Chu Tang had prepared his speech a long time ago, saying that after getting off the boat, he escaped the pursuit of the five-level masters with even more advanced lightness kung fu, and then cautiously entered Yangxian County to inquire about their news, and then came to Guijun County .

Except for the fact that he didn't mention the record of killing a five-level martial artist, he didn't hide anything else. It's true and unbelievable.

Just as he was talking, Shi Zhifeng led him to Zhuo Lien's resting place.

There were policemen guarding the door outside the room, and they were only allowed to enter after a briefing.

As soon as Chu Tang stepped into the door, he smelled a strong smell of medicine. After walking a few steps, he saw the appearance of Zhuo Lien who was half lying on the bed, and he was shocked: "The injury is so serious?!"
