I rely on my body to push the weird world

Chapter 7 Red-haired Youth
"My fellow villagers, the imperial court has ordered me to seal the city gates. Anyone who dares to leave the city without permission will be executed immediately..."

The Qinghe County Magistrate spoke loudly from the city gate.

On both sides, the yamen runners were heavily guarding, their eyes were sharp and serious.

Countless peddlers and hawkers were stopped, all of them looked terrified. Some shouted in excited voices, some knelt on the ground begging for mercy, but more of them prayed tremblingly.

"Sir, please let me live. This city is too scary!!!"

"Yes, I was almost frightened to death when I saw those horrific scenes last night. I was so scared that I couldn't sleep the whole night!"

"If you let us out of the city today, we will pay you a thousand gold coins to thank you for your kindness!"

"..."

The Qinghe County Magistrate's expression suddenly changed, and he shouted, "How dare you! I am not the kind of person who covets petty gains. I advise you to return home quickly. Otherwise, I can only obey the laws of Dayan and the court and kill you here! Please don't make it difficult for me!"

This statement came out.

The yamen runners on both sides drew their swords, and there were loud clanging sounds and bright flashes of swords.

The peddlers and hawkers who were shouting non-stop around suddenly stopped talking like ducks with their throats strangled.

Li Ji mingled in the crowd, tightening the bag on his shoulders, with indescribable complexity in his heart.

"It seems that we have been abandoned."

All the history that I have read in the past that praises suffering has some words like "the devastation caused by the great epidemic". The right thing to do is to sacrifice these people to save the rest of the people in the entire dynasty.

For people who have not lived in hardship, this practice will naturally be applauded and they will inevitably call the person a good man or a hero.

But what if we put ourselves in the shoes of those who have been cut off? What a hopeless feeling it would be, with no one to answer our calls.

Li Ji experienced this feeling personally at this moment.

The peddlers and hawkers at this moment also experienced this feeling.

So even though they were temporarily intimidated by words and force, they still stood there silently, looking at the blocked city gates, and hesitated to move forward.

"Why don't you get out of here right now, you are looking for death!!!"

The Qinghe County Magistrate shouted angrily.

"Hey, why did the county magistrate do this?"

From the shadows behind the Qinghe County Magistrate, a young man walked out slowly. He had long red hair, a red gown, and even his nails were red, shining like flowing magma. He exuded a strange and seductive aura.

"These common people are just like the weeds all over the ground. Even if they are cut and burned, they will grow all over the ground again when the spring breeze blows next year. Why should the county magistrate care so much?!"

Danxiao's words not only entered the eardrums of the Qinghe County Magistrate, but also were clearly transmitted to the ears of everyone present, causing them to tremble and look sideways.

"My lord, I'm going to be the official... I'm going to be the official..."

The Qinghe County Magistrate suddenly turned pale.

"You don't have to explain anything to me, magistrate." The red-haired young man's lips curled up into a perfect arc, "However, how about letting me, the abbot, take charge of this farce from now on?"

The Qinghe County Magistrate opened his mouth and was about to say something, but the corners of his mouth trembled a few times and in the end he did not have the courage to say it.

"Who said they wanted to leave the city?"

The red-haired young man still had a smile on his face, and he looked calmly at the peddlers who were wandering around him.

Almost everyone, when being stared at by the red-haired young man, felt their hair stand on end, their scalp tingling, and an indescribable feeling of terror welling up in their hearts!
Li Ji was mixed in the crowd, his muscles subconsciously tightened and wanted to expand madly, but fortunately he suppressed them all.

"What a scary red-haired young man!"

Li Ji's heart trembled.

Just a glance was enough to stimulate him to subconsciously want to display combat form to defend himself.

What a horror!
You have to know that he, Eagle Claw Iron Shirt, has possessed skills for a whole hundred years. How could a single glance make him feel such terrifying pressure!

This red-haired young man...is he really still a human?
"Oh? No one answered? Then let me come down to pick someone!"

The smile on the red-haired young man's lips became even brighter.

He stretched out his arm, and his red nails, like flowing magma, pointed at the crowd, shaking back and forth in the horrified gaze of everyone.

Suddenly, it fell down.

The person in the crowd who was pointed at turned pale instantly and broke out in a cold sweat.

"No, no, no, I don't. I don't want to leave the city!" He shook his head frantically, his thighs trembling. He couldn't bear such heavy pressure and fell to the ground, with yellow liquid flowing down his crotch.

"Boring!"

The smile on the red-haired young man's lips suddenly froze, and disgust was revealed in his eyes.

call!
The man suddenly caught fire without any fire. The fire grew with the wind and in an instant he was turned into a fire man. He rolled around in the sewage, wailing but to no avail.

Everyone was deeply stunned by this strange scene.

Fear is spreading.

All five senses are trembling.

In just three breaths, everyone was screaming in terror, stumbling about in a hurry, and quickly dispersed in chaos, no longer daring to make a fuss about leaving the city.

"It is useless for a man to teach another with a hundred words; but it is enough for an event to teach another once."

The red-haired young man smiled again.

He looked at the fireman wailing as he rolled in the mud and water but couldn't put out the fire, his eyes filled with a look of complete enjoyment.

The Qinghe County Magistrate felt a chill down his spine and quickly lowered his head and knelt in servility.

"That's what the adults taught you!"

……

clap clap clap clap!

The sewage was stepped on and created continuous splashes of water.

Li Ji clutched the bag on his shoulders and followed the terrified crowd around him, running in the alley without looking back.

"When?"

"When did the red-haired young man perform this trick?"

Li Ji frowned.

I just felt a tightness in my chest.

Even with his current martial arts skills and eyesight, he still couldn't figure out how the red-haired young man could make the person he was pointing at burn himself without fire.

There is no extremely mysterious casting action.

No dazzling special effects are everywhere.

Just such a light sentence - boring!
The person being pointed out suddenly caught fire right under his nose, in front of everyone around him!

What method is this? !

Li Ji couldn't see clearly and couldn't figure it out, which meant that if he was the one being pointed at just now, then the outcome would be predictable.

"Damn it, it's useless even if the Eagle Claw Iron Shirt is upgraded to 100 years!"

"Yes, it works. It definitely works. Otherwise, how could the swollen ghost die last night?"

"If one Eagle Claw Iron Shirt martial arts doesn't work, then learn two martial arts. If two martial arts don't work, then learn three..."

"This is a weird world. No one can harm me!"

Li Ji's facial features were ferocious and his fists were clenched so tightly that they made a crackling sound.

He took the lead, passing the crowd, ran out of the alley, and ran along the street towards the courtyard where Zhao Xun lived.

Although there are many old guys who practice martial arts in Qinghe County, Zhao Xun is the only one who has fallen into his situation.

As for the others who really have the skills, they may not be very rich, but they all live a wealthy life with children and grandchildren around them.

Therefore, when strange murders occurred frequently in Qinghe County, they either followed their descendants to escort the Zhashe family out of the city, or escorted their family members out of the city themselves.

Therefore, if Li Ji wants to continue learning martial arts, the only target he can choose is Zhao Xun.

I just hope Zhao Xun has other hidden tricks up his sleeve.

Otherwise, in this strange Qinghe County, Li Ji would not feel safe at all. He didn't know how long he could hold on or how long he could survive.
