Several people choreographed in low voices.

There are several steep slopes ahead.

The old horse walked with difficulty, and after passing the slope, there was a man standing on the side of the road.

The colorful long skirt touches the floor, with fluttering sleeves, red and green intertwined, standard women's clothing.

Inside the women's clothing was a dirty, dark face, with hair and beard intertwined. There was no expression on the face, holding a black short knife and looking at the group of people.

Zhang Cheng's humming stopped for a moment.

The two guards tightened their grip on the sticks in their hands.

A group of people walked past him, and the man's head moved with their movements, his eyes always staring at them.

"Go faster, go faster."

Zhang Cheng looked pale and warned the guards on his left and right.

There is another slope ahead.

Just as Zhang Cheng was about to wave his whip, another man appeared on the slope.

Another one popped up from the left.

There was no expression on the faces of these three people, but they walked towards Zhang Cheng and others at the same time, standing in three directions.

They didn't speak, and neither did Zhang Cheng.

The silence lasted for a long time, and Zhang Cheng trembled.

"I have some food here. There are many of us."

The three people didn't seem to hear anything. They slowly gathered around and stared at Zhang Cheng and the two guards. They just stared at Zhang Cheng and his round abdomen.

Their throats moved and they made swallowing sounds.

The two guards were frightened. They froze on the spot, their mouths pursed, their teeth stuck together, and their eyes flashed with fear.

They really wanted to do something, even to scream, but at this moment they felt sore all over and lost all their strength in an instant, unable to move.

Liu Taozi also swallowed her saliva when she saw them.

The corner of his left eye trembled, and a trace of ferocity flashed in his eyes.

"Whoosh~~~"

A harpoon flew out of the air and hit the man dressed as a woman on the neck.

The man's throat was torn open by the harpoon, and blood spurted out. The harpoon continued to fly out and fell to the ground. The man's head drooped to the side, with only skin and flesh connecting his head to his body.

As soon as the man standing in front heard the sound, he heard the sound of his accomplice falling to the ground.

A gust of wind blew.

A person appeared in the air, and there was severe pain in his face.

When Zhang Cheng saw Liu Taozi running towards him, he jumped up and put his knee on the thief's face.

The thief's face exploded with red, black, and yellow flowers, and he screamed and fell to the ground.

Liu Taozi grabbed the knife and took a step forward.

"Puch!"

The third thief stood behind Liu Taozi and swung the knife away with all his strength. Liu Taozi's clothes were torn apart, leaving a light red mark on her back.

Liu Taozi turned around and waved the knife in her hand from bottom to top.

The knife was held upright and opened the thief's abdomen.

Intestines mixed with internal organs squeezed out of the wound, and juice poured out.

The thief couldn't stand firmly and fell heavily to the ground.

Liu Taozi held a knife in both hands, stood in front of the bandit who was knocked to the ground by his knees, and stabbed him down.

The thief's chest was stabbed.

He didn't move either.

Liu Taozi held a knife, breathing heavily as he watched the third bandit being disemboweled.

It wasn't until the thief stopped moving that Liu Taozi stepped forward and stabbed him in the heart again.

On the carriage, Zhang Cheng remained motionless, and the two guards were even more so, like three clay sculptures.

"Ugh~~~"

Zhang Cheng finally retched.

He struggled to get out of the carriage, stood aside and began to vomit, but could not spit out anything except some water.

Liu Taozi took out a piece of cloth to wrap the wound on her back.

When Liu Taozi finished her work, the two guards did not dare to step forward to check.

Zhang Cheng stood in front of Liu Taozi and looked at the corpses.

"peach."

His voice was a little weak, but there was cunning in his eyes again.

"Look, can you give me these heads?"

"These are a group of habitual thieves who are capable of harming others at first sight. I took them to the government and hung them on the city wall to scare those beasts who are determined to become thieves!"

"Hundred coins."

"One hundred coins."

Zhang Cheng put away his smile and stopped talking.

His hands groped around his body.

After groping for a long time, he gritted his teeth and handed the three coins to Liu Taozi.

The guards stood motionless, and Zhang Cheng shouted angrily: "What are you doing standing still?! Behead me!"

"Whose head should I chop off?"

"Cut me! Come on, come on!"

Zhang Cheng stuck out his head and cursed angrily.

The two guards tremblingly chopped off the three heads, and after a busy period of work, the group set out on the road again.

After passing a few more high slopes, the guard's fear dissipated.

They puffed up their chests again, occasionally tossing the heads of the people they were carrying, and their roars were deafening again.

"Hurry up!! Hurry up!!"

Liu Taozi still walked at the end without saying a word.

The tall city walls of Cheng'an County appeared in the distance, and the gray-white city walls were daunting.

There were more than twenty people standing at the city gate, neatly lined up on both sides.

These people were well-armed, fat and strong. Before the carriage came close to the enemy, several crossbows were aimed at them.

Zhang Cheng got out of the car with a smile and walked forward.

"prrgn!"

He saluted and said hello, took out the residence from his sleeves, and pointed to the guards, tenants, and Liu Taozi beside him one by one, and explained to that person.

He pointed at the heads again, looking quite proud, and the two guards also puffed up their chests.

Liu Taozi saw Zhang Cheng stuffing something into the soldier's hand.

The soldier checked them one by one, looked at each person, compared them, and finally looked at the harpoon in Liu Taozi's hand.

"bar!"

Liu Taozi handed the harpoon to the other party. The soldier took the harpoon, took a few steps back, and shouted toward the city entrance. The soldier at the door moved out of the way.

Zhang Cheng walked at the front, smiling and saluting to the left and right, nodding and bowing, nodding frequently.

The group passed the city gate.

Inside the city gate is the Wengcheng. You will be interrogated again at the second city gate before entering the city.

A road leads into the distance, with various buildings on both sides of the road.

However, there is no one on this road leading to the distance.

The buildings on both sides were dead silent, and no sound could be heard from inside.

As a group of people walked in the city like this, they seemed to be the only ones in this huge city.

When they reached a fork in the road, Zhang Cheng stopped.

"You guys just wait here for me to go to the county government office."
