Book 44 - Chapter 2 – The Road To Execution Ground (1/2)

Xu Ziling was hiding by a warehouse near the pier, behind a pile of junk There were dozens of warehouses of all kinds and sizes near the pier, froe warehouse of wood construction in front of hi that should be here was here And the reason he chose this particular closed warehouse was sio from the warehouse to the shi+p

The docks were so active, nearly three hundreds porters were busy loading and unloading the goods Taking advantage while Zong Xianghua, Ma Ji, and the others’ attention was focused on the three large cargo shi+ps co had a free hand to act

He watched for a porter carrying a wooden box on his shoulders and calculated accurately the moment his foot stepped out of the warehouse to shoot a burst of finger wind toward the porter’s vital point The porter was hit by the finger and fell forward, throwing the heavy wooden box in front of hi shot another burst of punch power, at the precise round, the force hit the wooden box

The wooden box was shattered instantly; iinal identity was fully revealed Surprisingly, it was sheet after sheet of sheepskin

Ma Ji’sthe works fro tricks in the dark, they thought the porter lost his footing, and the nails on this wooden box just happened not to be fastened securely They simply shouted to call the other round

Xu Ziling nearly turned around to run after Yin Xianhe, but he could not help suppressing this idea down, because no one knehen Ma Ji’s shi+ps were going to sail, hence he must deal with this matter alone

The fact before his eyesthis batch of sheepskin, which belonged to Da Xiaojie Zhai Jiao, froave it to him or entrusted it to hi profit, in the end it was Bai Ziting who sent his uess on this

This batch of sheepskin was an enormous wealth; it could make Zhai Jiao lose her fa fortune

A lowered on theshi+ps slowly reached the shore

Xu Ziling watched with rapt attention Although the shi+ps did not fly any flag, but looking at the sailors’ clothes and appearance, he was certain that these were Gaoli people

Xu Ziling’s heart was uess that Ma Ji’s sheepskin was to be sold to Gaoli In such a bitter cold place like Gaoli, certainly highest quality sheepskin worth er hesitated He backed off and slipped toward the part of the harbor where he did not see anyone, and into the ice-cold seawater Staying close to the botto shi+p

Outside the Vermillion Bird Gate, there was a team of fully armed cavalrymen, rave in manner Surely these were qi’s leadershi+p, striding high on the horseback, waiting for Kou Zhong

Kesubie leaned close to Kou Zhong and said with a smile, “Shaoshuai, please don’t take offense, we as officials [in feudal court] can only carry out the i’s wish is that Shaoshuai will leave the city i acted as if he did not hear anybody speaking to hi on the horseback, looking coldly at hi relaxed, he said, “In the past year, how jun spend in this place?”

The pupil of Gongqi’s eyes narrowed, the divine light was flickering, his hand pressed on the cavalry sword on his waist, he spoke heavily, “What is Shaoshuai referring to? I wonder if you could speak a bitco away froht and unafraid Indifferent and at ease, he laughed aloud and said, “Gong Jiangjun, please don’t jun’s spoken Han carries a bit of Central Earth’s northeast accent, you re person in Shanhai Pass Other than that, there is no otherwanted to kill him outside the city, his purpose was to raise the troops’ spirit In the future, the storytellers would tell this seg outside the gate of Longquan’ By killing hiinal tribe, as well as to the other Mohe tribes, that this action was to break the cauldrons and sink the boats [idio to cut off one’s ht to the last soldier, the last pawn, as well as to show his valor and deterenerals and the soldiers’ will to fight to the death, to put everything to death and then go back to live If by using this kind of not-sparing-anything spirit he could influence the entire Mohe division, plus the legend of the Five-Colored Stone, Gesuwen’s aht really be able to create a miracle, so that Mohe division could take the Tujue’s place to becoe was fan; naturally he could not possibly forget the faees After killing Kou Zhong, he would no longer have any in to redee’s conjecture was really not because he was in critical circumstances that he suspected everyone; it was sientleqi, in the dark was Cui wang And theto shed off their military uniform, he was sure that their entire body would be covered in the tattoo of Huihe wolf-bandits

Inside Bai Ziting’s territory, to reroup of Mohe soldiers would be qi and his wolf-bandits qi’s eyes turned harsh, he spoke coldly, “No other le in Jianghu, you ought to know that you cannot speak auously; if it pertains to other people’s clean reputation, you ought to explain clearly even rabbed the hilt of their saber at the sa word, they would immediately make theirwith the suards at the Vermillion Bird Gate turned their eyes toward thehtened theby Kou Zhong, caljun, please calm down a little bit In this lowly official’s opinion, this is just aMay I venture to trouble Shaoshuai to say a feords in order to dispel Gong Jiangjun’s doubt?”

Hearing that, Kou Zhong was uess was correct, precisely because Gongqi and his uest’ status that Kesubie could only use this approach to advise Gongqi, to tell hiate before they ’s order

Killing Kou Zhong at the palace gate concerned only Kou Zhong and Bai Ziting’s personal grievances; it would be difficult for Bai Ziting to explain to Shang Xiufang But killing Kou Zhong at the city gate concerned the entire ar difference in its significance and what it stood for

While Kou Zhong was pondering why Bai Ziting did not seem to be overly concerned about the batch of bows and arroo i toward hi, ihed, and skipped over joyfully Kou Zhong sighed inwardly; he stepped over to pull his beloved horse Thousand-Li Drea was really for any sound, he had the whole situation under control The Thousand-Li Dream was returned to his side at this moment, it was precisely to tell him that Shuwen and his shi+wei brothers have all been arrested and detained Naturally he still had Xu Ziling and Ba Fenghan’s beloved horses

Laughing aloud, he said, “What good explanation do I have? If Gong Jiangjun is totally innocent, ould he be concerned just because Xiaodi isan associative connection?”

Finished speaking, he flew to qi without blinking at all

Intense rier, hatred, and ruthlessness He said, “In that case, please Shaoshuai be on your way”

Kou Zhong understood that his hatred stee number of his brothers was killed by theed his horse to trot slowly out of the Vermillion Bird Gate

The scenery before his eyes was so different from the one he was accustoht

The entire Vermilion Bird Boulevard was devoid of any pedestrians, the shops were closed, Mohe soldiers were lining up both sides of the street, for out all the way to the south city gate Seeing Kou Zhong co out of the Vermilion Bird Gate, they i live Da wang”

Their shout shook the whole city, their voice soared into the sky; the timid would certainly be startled and fell fro suddenly felt that he had becoround to be beheaded If he could not change this situation, he would indeed end up being executed outside the city gate

Gongqi and his cavalry were riding on his left, right, ahead and behind hi sound of the hoof beats rang out along the Ver at the palace gate, raised his voice and said, “Shaoshuai, take care of yourself, please forgive this lowly officer for not sending you off!”

Kou Zhong laughed bitterly in his heart How could he ever i would end up like this? He could not even talk with Luo Yi and the others If he could see the to tell theo as far away as possible

Gongqi carave, he closed hiscirculated his true qi, while at the sa-survival-in-the- wanted to eradicate , not reciprocate?

The Gods did not know, the ghosts did not perceive, Xu Ziling’s head e to the hull of the shi+p, he swiftly clih a cabinEven in broad daylight, if one was not watching with full attention, even if he saw Xu Ziling flashi+ng in front of his eyes, he would think that he had blurry eyes

Xu Ziling landed in the cabin, which, aze around, iuess was accurate, so he was quite proud of hi point was the structure and architecturalthe cabin with the best view on the shi+p, the least affected by the wind and the waves, and determined that it est accommodation on the shi+p; the anteroom and the rear chamber were separated by a ba decorations were extreold and jade in glorious splendor] It was precisely the kind of uncouth luxury that Ma Ji loved the most, as if Ma Ji’s tent was moved from the land to this shi+p Besides, on the carpet of the outer hall, there was a large bowl of Ma Ji’s favorite fresh fruit

The bed was scented with sweet-s nearly wanted to close his breathing

Xu Ziling looked out via the hanging curtain A row of three largeroom, all the trunks were locked, he was certain that the contents must be some particularly valuable articles, otherwise, no one would want to put three of such unwieldystepped through the curtain out to the living rooe metal trunks, he focused his entire attention to detect any movement, far and near

This cabin was located on the top deck of the shi+p, at the stern, hence both the bedroo roo the sea This moment he moved to theon the other side to look at the pier outside

The three Gaoli , opposite to this, Ma Ji’s shi+p Xu Ziling’s heart was hty thousand sheets of sheepskin could not be a s twenty thousand would already be strenuous, therefore, it was very likely that after the Gaoli shi+ps unloaded their cargo, they would transport the eighty thousand sheets of sheepskin back to Gaoli, so ht be a barter transaction
