We agreed that you, a weak strategist, would fight against three heroes by yourself?

"How could we be so stupid that we didn't expect this!" Another guard hit his head hard, his eyes full of regret.

"It's over now. If Chief Tapi wakes up, we'll all be in trouble!" The third guard's face turned pale and his body trembled involuntarily.

Several people stood there in a daze, as if their souls had been taken away. They didn't know what to do and felt that the end was coming.

Meng Huo stepped into Tapi's room with great momentum, only to see Tapi lying on the bed with his legs spread out and sleeping soundly.

Meng Huo frowned, his eyes burning with anger.

He waved his hand and said to the followers behind him: "Wake him up!"

One of the followers quickly responded: "Yes, sir!" Then, the man rolled his eyes and hurried out to get a large basin of cold water.

Meng Huo stood aside with his arms folded across his chest, staring at Tapi on the bed with a gloomy face, thinking to himself: "Wait until you wake up, and see how I will deal with you!"

The attendant walked to the bedside and poured a basin of cold water on Tapi without hesitation.

Ta Pi was shocked by the sudden cold water and jumped up from the bed, screaming "Ah".

He widened his eyes, his face full of horror, and water drops kept dripping down his hair. He shivered and shouted in panic: "Who? Who did it!"

When he saw that it was Meng Huo standing in front of him, he was so scared that his face turned pale, his body trembled involuntarily, and he stammered: "Meng... Lord Meng Huo, what... what's going on?"

At this time, Tapi was completely sober after being splashed with cold water. He shook his head and his eyes gradually became clear.

Meng Huo looked at Tapi, sneered, and said, "Humph, I, Meng Huo, have always been open and aboveboard, and I disdain sneak attacks, so I must wake you up."

Meng Huo put his hands behind his back, his eyes revealing majesty and confidence.

Tapi stood up, wiped the water off his face, sneered, and replied, "Don't be too proud too early, don't forget that your brother is still in my hands."

Tapi's mouth corners rose, with a hint of cunning and pride in his eyes.

Meng Huo laughed loudly, and the laughter echoed in the room.

Tapi was stunned, and his heart couldn't help but "Ge Deng", thinking to himself: "Could it be that Meng Huo has rescued his brother?"

His face suddenly became very ugly, and his eyes were full of doubts and uneasiness.

Tapi pretended to be calm, stared at Meng Huo and said, "What are you laughing at? What's so funny!" His voice trembled a little, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.

Meng Huo stopped laughing, looked at Tapi with a sharp gaze, and said loudly: "Do you think you can threaten me by catching my brother? To tell you the truth, my brother is safe!" Meng Huo held his head high and exuded a strong aura.

Meng Huo took a step forward, approached Tapi, and snorted coldly: "Tapi, today is your death!"

Tapi retreated repeatedly, shouting fiercely: "Don't mess around! Even if your brother is not in my hands, you can't easily touch me!"

Meng Huo crossed his arms and said sarcastically: "You are still stubborn now. I might as well tell you that my people have surrounded this place, and you can't escape even if you have wings!"

Tapi looked around in horror, his face pale, and his lips trembling: "How is this possible?"

Tapi's legs softened and he almost collapsed to the ground. He cried out: "Meng Huo, you can't kill me, and you won't be able to get away if you kill me!" His eyes were full of despair and fear.

Meng Huo was unmoved, and said coldly: "You have committed many evil deeds, and today is your end!"

Tapi suddenly had a flash of madness in his eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Even if I die, I will take someone with me!" As he said that, he reached for his waist.

Meng Huo was quick-witted and kicked Tapi's wrist, and a dagger fell to the ground.

"Humph, you still want to resist!" Meng Huo shouted angrily.

Tapi covered his wrist painfully and collapsed to the ground, still muttering to himself: "It's over, everything is over"

At this time, the orderly footsteps of soldiers came from outside the door, and Meng Huo's men had surrounded the room.

Meng Huo looked down at Tapi and said: "The crimes you committed are intolerable!"

Tapi looked ashen and gave up resistance completely.

Tapi ended his sinful life in despair. Meng Huo looked at Tapi's body with a gloomy face, and coldly ordered people to burn this place.

The raging fire ignited instantly, and the billowing smoke rushed straight into the sky.

At this moment, Wan Xi suddenly rushed in.

When he saw Tapi's body, his eyes were full of grief and despair, and tears burst out.

"Master Tapi!" Wan Xi cried out in a shrill and desperate voice.

He stared at Tapi blankly, his body trembling, as if he had lost his soul.

After a moment, Wan Xi smiled miserably and said to himself: "Master is gone, how can I live alone."

After that, he drew his sword without hesitation and committed suicide.

The fire where Tapi lived was fierce, and the thick smoke billowed straight into the sky, which soon attracted the attention of many people.

People gathered around, whispering to each other, with panic on their faces.

Meng Huo looked grim and soon came to the street. He stood tall and straight, looking at the crowd with a dignified gaze, and said loudly: "Everyone has seen it clearly! Tapi rebelled, and this is his fate! Anyone who dares to follow suit will end up like this!"

There was a commotion in the crowd, some people showed fear, and some bowed their heads and whispered.

Meng Huo continued, "I, Meng Huo, only wish to keep the peace in this area. If anyone tries to destroy this peace, don't blame me for being ruthless!" His voice was loud and firm, echoing in the street.

At this time, the sun shone on Meng Huo, reflecting his resolute outline, which made people feel awe.

Meng Huo's eyes were like torches, staring at the crowd closely, not missing any subtle changes in expression. He continued, "I, Meng Huo, act uprightly, just to protect the stable life of the people in this area. If there are any traitors who make trouble, I will punish them severely!"

Someone in the crowd shouted, "Lord Meng Huo, we will definitely support you!" Others also echoed.

Meng Huo nodded slightly, his expression slightly relieved: "As long as everyone abides by the law and jointly maintains this peaceful and prosperous era, they will live and work in peace and have no worries about food and clothing."

After that, he turned around and strode away, leaving behind a group of people who were still sighing and talking.

And the burning tower skin residence seemed to have become an eternal warning, reminding everyone not to make mistakes.

After returning home, Meng Huo hurried into the main hall and saw Xi Yu sitting at the table reading a book.

Meng Huo stepped forward and bowed, then reported the incident in detail.

"My lord, the tower has been removed and his residence has been burned down to serve as a warning to others." Meng Huo's voice was loud.

Xi Yu put down the book and asked with a smile: "Are there any innocent people injured in this operation?"

Meng Huo quickly replied: "Prime Minister, no other innocent people were injured."

After hearing this, Xi Yu's eyes flashed with relief, and he said happily: "Very good, very good, in this way, it can be regarded as eliminating a harm for the people."

Then, Meng Huo went to Mrs. Zhu Rong's room and told her about the matter.

When Mrs. Zhu Rong heard this, she smiled brightly and said: "My husband did a good job. This tower has done many evil things and should have ended like this."

Meng Huo looked at his wife's smile and was also full of joy in his heart.

Meng Xin came out of the inner room with a look of expectation on his face, and asked cautiously: "Brother, can I go back to my hometown?"

Meng Huo frowned, shook his head firmly, and showed a trace of fear in his eyes, saying: "No, thinking of the previous things, my heart is beating. You stay here, you don't have to do anything, I will support you!"

Meng Xin stamped his feet anxiously and said loudly: "Brother, how can this be? I am not without hands and feet, how can I let you support me all the time!"

At this time, Mrs. Zhu Rong also came over, looked at Meng Xin gently, and persuaded: "Meng Xin, just listen to your brother. Staying here, at least there is someone to rely on, we are all a family."

Her eyes were full of sincerity and concern.

Meng Xin looked embarrassed, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and was very entangled in his heart: on the one hand, he didn't want to be a burden to his brother, on the other hand, he felt that his sister-in-law was right.

Meng Xin raised his head, looked at Meng Huo and Mrs. Zhu Rong firmly, and said, "Brother, sister-in-law, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I really don't want to be raised like this without doing anything." His face was full of stubbornness.

Meng Huo stepped forward, patted Meng Xin on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Brother, don't think too much. What happened before has left me with lingering fears. As long as you are by my side, I will feel at ease." Meng Huo's eyes were full of worry and love for his brother.

Mrs. Zhu Rong also took Meng Xin's hand and said with a smile, "Meng Xin, you can stay with peace of mind. It's great that our family is together and can take care of each other." Her eyes were gentle and kind.

Meng Xin bit her lip, moved in her heart, her eyes slightly red, and said, "Okay, brother, sister-in-law, I will listen to you."

Meng Huo and Mrs. Zhu Rong smiled at each other, their eyes full of relief.

Then, Meng Huo said with a solemn look in his eyes: "Meng Xin, the Prime Minister has made great contributions to the successful resolution of this matter. You should thank the Prime Minister."

Meng Xin nodded without hesitation and replied: "Brother, I understand."

So, the two brothers came to Xi Yu side by side.

Meng Huo bowed respectfully and said: "Prime Minister, my two brothers have come to thank you."

Meng Xin also bowed deeply, his face full of gratitude: "Thank you for your kindness, Prime Minister."

Xi Yu smiled and waved his hand, saying: "Please stand up quickly, this is a just act, don't worry about it."

Meng Huo stood up, looked at Xi Yu firmly, and said: "The Prime Minister's great kindness, I, Meng Huo, will remember it in my heart, and I will serve the Prime Minister in the future."

Meng Xin also quickly echoed: "I am willing to serve the Prime Minister."

Xi Yu looked at the two brothers, his eyes full of admiration, and said : "General Meng Huo is loyal and brave, and Meng Xin is also a grateful person. This prime minister is very pleased. In the future, I hope you will continue to do your best for the peace of this area."

Meng Huo clasped his fists and solemnly replied: "Prime Minister, rest assured, I will not fail my mission."

Meng Xin also looked determined: "Although I am not talented, I am willing to follow my brother and seek the welfare of the people."

Xi Yu nodded slightly and said: "Very good, very good."

At this time, Meng Huo glanced at Meng Xin and said: "The prime minister is busy with affairs, so we will not bother you anymore and leave first."

The two brothers saluted Xi Yu again, then turned and left.

Xi Yu waved his hand and said: "General Meng Huo, the matter here has been completed, and this prime minister and his party should also leave."

When Meng Huo heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward and said anxiously: "Prime Minister, although the matter here is over, the people have deep respect for you. I hope you can stay and let everyone feel your grace more."

Meng Huo's face was full of sincerity and reluctance.

Xi Yu pondered for a moment, looked at Meng Huo's expectant eyes, and finally said: "Okay, then stay for another day."

Meng Huo was immediately delighted and hurriedly bowed his hands to thank him: "Thank you, Prime Minister!"

On the other side, it was late at night, everything was silent, and the moonlight was like water.

Many killers came to Meng Huo's house quietly with masks on. They were agile and quick, like ghosts.

These killers all had fierce eyes, and their hearts were full of obsession to avenge Tapi.

They climbed over the courtyard wall silently, avoided the patrolling guards, and quickly approached Meng Huo's room.

The leading killer made a gesture, and everyone quickly dispersed and surrounded Meng Huo's room.

Then, a killer kicked the door open, and the others quickly broke into Meng Huo's room.

Meng Huo and Mrs. Zhu Rong woke up from their sleep soon, and they instantly realized the arrival of danger. Meng Huo's eyes were stern, and he quickly jumped out of bed.

Madam Zhu Rong was also unambiguous. She quickly picked up the spear beside her, her eyes wide open, and fought fiercely with the killers while cursing: "You guys who don't know how to live or die, dare to offend me, today I will make you come back without a chance to return!"

The spear in her hand was like a dragon out of the sea, fierce and aggressive, and every move was full of fierce killing intent.

Meng Huo was not to be outdone, and faced the enemy with bare hands. He roared: "You scoundrels, how dare you sneak attack at night, I will tear you into pieces!" His boxing skills were fierce and powerful, and every blow was accompanied by a whirring sound, which made the killers retreat again and again.

Although the killers were numerous, they could not gain the upper hand for a while under the brave resistance of Meng Huo and Madam Zhu Rong.

Madam Zhurong danced with the spear in her hand vigorously, and she beat and scolded: "You scum who are afraid of the light, do you think you can escape punishment by covering your face?"

Meng Huo became more and more courageous, and he shouted: "Prepare to die!"

He punched a killer in the chest with a punch, and the killer screamed and flew out.

At this time, a killer seized the opportunity and stabbed Madam Zhurong with a knife.

Meng Huo was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and flew over to block the blow for Madam Zhurong.

His arm was scratched, and the blood stained his sleeves red, but he didn't care at all. Instead, he became more courageous and turned around and kicked the killer to the ground.

Madam Zhurong was furious when she saw Meng Huo injured, and the attack of the spear in her hand became more and more fierce, "Dare to hurt my husband, I want your lives!"

The killers gradually couldn't resist and began to retreat.

But the leading killer shouted: "Don't retreat, if we don't kill Meng Huo today, we will all die!"

Meng Huo and Madam Zhu Rong looked at each other, and a determination to fight against the same enemy surged in their hearts.

They cooperated more and more tacitly, forcing the killers to retreat step by step.

Finally, after a fierce fight, Meng Huo and Madam Zhu Rong successfully subdued all the killers, leaving only one alive.

Meng Huo grabbed the killer's collar, glared at him, and roared: "Tell me, who sent you?"

Madam Zhu Rong held a spear with the tip of the spear pointed directly at the killer, and shouted: "Tell the truth, otherwise you will live a life worse than death!"

The killer had already been frightened and trembling all over, and said tremblingly: "It's... it's Tapi's old subordinates, they want to avenge Tapi."

Madam Zhu Rong nodded and said: "We must not let these remnants go!"

Then, a fierce look flashed in Meng Huo's eyes, and he killed the killer without saying a word.

On the second day, at dawn, Meng Huo led a team of elite soldiers to conduct a rigorous search throughout the city, leaving no corner untouched.

With a stern look on his face, he shouted to the soldiers: "Search carefully, and don't let any of Tapi's old subordinates go!"

The soldiers were all in high spirits, holding weapons, and checking door to door.

The people on the street looked sideways and whispered about the tense situation.

Meng Huo rode on his horse, his eyes were sharp, and he didn't miss any suspicious signs.

Next, the team led by Meng Huo was like a precise big net, searching the whole city carefully. After some hard work, they finally made a major discovery.

They followed the clues and found a den of Tapi's old subordinates.

Meng Huo gave an order: "Surround it for me, don't let any of them go!"

The soldiers acted quickly and surrounded the den.

The old subordinates of Tapi in the den were panicked and tried to resist stubbornly.

But Meng Huo led the way and was extremely brave. He waved his weapon and shouted loudly: "You rebels, today is your doom!"

The soldiers were encouraged and their morale was boosted. They fought bravely.

After a fierce battle, Meng Huo successfully captured all of Tapi's former subordinates.

He stood in the messy den, with a triumphant smile on his face, and said loudly: "Those who do evil will eventually not escape the punishment of justice!"

On the other side, Xi Yu was strolling leisurely with Ouyang Linlin, Xiao Hong and another person.

Ouyang Linlin opened her curious eyes, looked around, with an excited smile on her face, and kept exclaiming: "This foreign scenery is really unique and fascinating."

Xiao Hong also jumped happily, holding some small exotic items in her hands, and said happily: "Yes, Miss, I like it here too much."

Xi Yu looked at their cheerful appearance and said with a smile: "Walk slowly and enjoy this unique scenery."

They walked through the busy streets and alleys, feeling the unique customs of the foreign race.

They finished their shopping until late at night, when it was already dark. Xi Yu looked up at the dark sky, smiled bitterly, and said, "I was planning to leave today, but it seems I have to leave tomorrow."

Ouyang Linlin winked playfully and said, "Oh, this scenery is so charming, it doesn't matter if I stay for another day." (End of this chapter)
