There are four official roads in Zhaoyang County.

The official road to the east is only built thirty miles away, because beyond that, it is Tianling County in Xuzhou, the official road.

There are three official roads on the west side, the northwest leads directly to Yulin County, the southwest leads to Baiye County, and the destination of the official road to the west is Tongling City, the capital of Tongling County.

Why do people all over the world want to follow the official road, the small road, or try to find a path in the mountains?

If we talk about ordinary people who have never practiced martial arts, it may be because they are afraid of wolves, jackals, tigers and leopards in the mountains, so they do not dare to walk on the trails, or take the path by themselves through the mountains.

But what about those accomplished warriors?

Why do they also want to take the official route?

Because there are not only jackals, tigers and leopards in the mountains, but also spirits and monsters!

Those demons and ghosts have been watered by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for a long time and nourished by the essence of the sun and moon. They have long been enlightened and are insidious and cunning. Not to mention that some of them have developed magical powers, such as reaching for the stars and the moon, flying into the sky and escaping from the earth, and are omnipotent.

Ordinary warriors in the Kaishen Realm will encounter groups of jackals, tigers, leopards, and wild beasts in the forest, which will lead to a narrow escape from death, let alone those monsters that have become spirits. As long as they encounter them, they will die.

Even warriors above the Gang Qi realm may die if they encounter them.

But the official roads are different. All the current official roads in the thirteen states in the world are based on the state roads built during the Dynasty of Dayu and were repaired twice.

When Yu Shenzong was in power, all races in the world surrendered, and the demons and ghosts were no exception.

In the year 2573 of the Dayu calendar, the Yu Shen Zong decreed that all mountains, rivers, vegetation, and monsters that became spirits in the world must be registered, and the Dayu Demon Hunting Department was established to supervise this matter.

Those demons and monsters have been wandering in the mountains and forests for a long time and longed for freedom. How could they be willing to be restrained like this? So they all ignored Shenzong's will.

However, the Demon Suppression Division was supported by Shenzong and had many powerful men under his command. He also summoned countless capable people and strangers to launch a demon extermination operation. This demon extermination operation lasted for hundreds of years and killed half of the demons in the world.

, and among them there are some peerless demons with monstrous strength.

Seeing this, the remaining demons who were still alive were already frightened. Before Shenzong stopped taking action, they took the initiative to compromise and submit to Dayu, and honestly registered their information and names with the demon hunting bureaus in various places.

Later, Shenzong did not exterminate all these monsters, and also established a nine-grade god system to manage them separately. Among them, those who had meritorious service and locality would be canonized as gods, and they would have immortal golden bodies and enjoy the incense of thousands of families.

Of course, there are rewards and punishments. Among them, those demons that continue to be stubborn and commit crimes will be killed by Dayu's Demon Hunting Division, and their bodies will disappear.

Since then, all the demons in various places have become obedient. In order to obtain the status of gods, some of them have great magical powers and even help the people to make clouds and rain. It can be said that the world is cleansed and righteous.

"It's a pity that the great era of Shenzong has long gone forever. Without Shenzong's suppression, these demons have all become bloodthirsty and cruel, and few of them are kind.

Nowadays, the top ten saint-level forces in the world are in charge, and they are nominally divided into good and evil. But even among the same sects, all states are on guard against each other, and official channels are blocked. The risks of the escort business are getting bigger and bigger!"

Thirty miles away from the official road in the northwest of Zhaoyang County, a group of fifteen people escorted three carriages and were slowly heading towards Yulin County.

Among the fifteen people, the exposed membranes on thirteen of them were all restrained and tight. They were obviously masters of the fifth level. There were five people sitting on each carriage, in a clear order, and the front of the three carriages were all inserted.

There is a flag with a flying eagle on it.

The ones who were chatting were the two middle-aged men in the first carriage.

The middle-aged man on the left heard the man on the right sigh that the Shenzong era was gone forever, and he also sighed, but his expression immediately became confused.

"That's not right, Mr. Wang! More than a thousand years have passed since the Shenzong era. Didn't you say that after no one suppressed those demons, they all became bloodthirsty, cruel and lawless? Then why do they not dare to come in this official way?

"

Bouncer Wang turned his head and glanced at him, as if his body was aching after sitting for a long time. He stood up on the carriage and stretched his muscles and bones. His abundant energy and blood made the people around him look envious.

That abundant qi and blood is the sign of entering the ninth level of blood-changing realm.

After three or four breaths, Mr. Wang finally opened his mouth to explain.

"Didn't those demons in the early years disobey God's will and were killed in half?

When these state roads were being built, Shenzong mixed all the flesh and blood of the peerless demons killed by the Demon Hunting Division into it. Now that there are no peerless demons left in the world, the remaining ones are at most big demons. As long as they smell the evil spirits on this official road,

I was so frightened that I couldn't walk because of the smell, how could I dare to come near this place!"

Using the flesh and blood of peerless demons as materials, he opened a state road and connected the thirteen states in the world...

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and they couldn't help but also showing a nostalgic look like Mr. Wang.

"Then, if that's the case, there's no danger in officialdom. Then what do we, the people from the escort bureau, need to do?"

At this moment, another person asked a question.

The others immediately nodded when they heard this. Since even those demons did not dare to approach the official road, why do they still need escorts like them?

The escort leader Wang sneered, glanced at everyone, and said: "The escort team carries some valuables. Can this official way guard against demons, monsters, and human hearts?"

You are still young and don't understand.

The human heart in this world is much more terrifying than demons!"

Bang bang bang bang...

Suddenly, the sound of applause came from the left side of the official road, and then more than twenty masked men in black on horseback appeared on both sides.

As soon as the sound of applause sounded, Wang Gong's expression changed drastically, and he led all fourteen of his men to stand apart, while thinking about countermeasures in his mind.

But when he saw more than fifty masked men pouring out from both sides of the official road, his heart suddenly went cold. He was thinking about countermeasures even when he was of equal strength. In the current situation, he was extremely capable.

, we can’t keep this batch of goods.

Just when he was frustrated, the man on the left who had just applauded, obviously the leader of the group of men in black, took two steps forward on horseback and made a sharp and cold sound.

"I heard that in his early years, Escort Wang served as the executioner of the Fuwei Escort Agency, a third-rate force in Wanyang County. He was also a person who traveled extensively, so he is quite knowledgeable.

I didn't believe it before, but now that I saw it, I realized that what he said was true. The human heart is more terrifying than monsters. I deeply agree with this!"

As soon as he heard the voice of the masked leader, Wang Gong suddenly felt familiar, but after thinking hard for ten breaths, he still couldn't remember who it was.

"Wang Gong, the chief escort of the Eagle Escort Bureau, could you please give me a favor and let us pass. How about using these five hundred taels of silver as a road trip?"

Wang Gong threw out the five silver ingots in his arms. He said it generously, but his heart was bleeding. The iron ingots he was escorting on this trip were the iron ingots from the Flying Eagle Gate. The three carts totaled two thousand silver ingots, with a total price of ten thousand.

Two thousand taels.

Originally, according to the rules of the Escort Agency's 11% commission, his profit was 1,200 taels, but after all, the Eagle Escort Agency is the property of Feiyingmen. He was transporting goods for his own family, so he took a discount and only made a profit of 1,000 taels.

I just threw out five hundred taels for nothing, so you can imagine how I feel.

It was a pity that the leader of the group of masked men just drew out his long sword, blocked it lightly, and made five crisp sounds, and the five hundred-tael silver ingots instantly bounced back into his hand.

"With so many of us here, we just want to spend five hundred taels of silver, and Mr. Wang must have thought too well!

To be honest, I don’t want to embarrass Mr. Wang, as long as you hand over the iron ingots of the troika to us and then go back to stay with us for a few days, you won’t have to see blood today, how about that?”

Wanting the goods on the three carriages and arresting them, Wang Gong's expression suddenly changed. He looked up at the leading masked man and instantly realized who he was!

In Zhaoyang County, there are only three families who dare to rob Feiyingmen's escorts. Currently, only one family has the ability and motivation. Combined with this person's sharp and cold voice, there is only one person!

"The escort leader, with this unorthodox tone, is only the fourth son of the Hou family. He must be Hou Yujie's castrated dog. He dares to rob the escort on the official road. As long as we report it to the county magistrate, he, the Hou family, will not be able to get away with it!"

The middle-aged man next to Wang Gong realized this almost at the same time as him. He was a core disciple of the Flying Eagle Sect and had a strong hatred for the Hou family. After understanding Hou Yujie's identity, he directly spoke in a low voice to signal Wang Gong.

He even made plans.

He thought his voice was very low, but at this moment there was no one around the official road, only a group of people in black. After Hou Yujie just spoke, the rest of the people did not dare to speak out and waited for Wang Gong to answer. The scene was extremely quiet.

Ever since, as soon as he said these words, the whole audience was silent!

Who in Zhaoyang County doesn't know that the Hou family changed drastically two years ago. After Hou Yujie was deprived of his penis, his temperament changed drastically. He was most afraid of people saying this in front of him.

The tone of neither man nor woman, Hou Yujie's castrated dog, even reported it to the county magistrate...

You damn thing can’t see the situation clearly and don’t know your role!

Wang Gong wished he could just slap this man to death and wanted to beg for mercy, but when he looked back, his face instantly turned pale.

Hou Yujie had already taken off the black mask from his face at some point, and was looking at the middle-aged man next to Wang Gong with a sinister smile on his lips.

Taking off the mask means that there may not be any more survivors among them. After all, the official robbery of escorts is indeed not a small matter!

"You have the talent, you have the talent, the people from the Flying Eagle Sect really have the talent, so...so..."

His voice became sharper, and the coldness in his words made everyone feel a chill in their bodies, and their expressions even began to distort.

As soon as the two words "good" came out in succession, Hou Yujie's body suddenly jumped off the horse, and the cold light from the sword's edge reflected in everyone's eyes.

The messy sword flowers bloomed in an instant on the official road, like a beautiful picture composed of cold light and blood. Hou Yujie, who was emaciated and dressed in black, was the protagonist of the picture.

However, within a hundred breaths, except for Wang Gong, the other fourteen people in the audience were all missing their heads, and they didn't even have time to scream.

"Is the Rapid Rain Sword Technique really just a low-level swordsmanship? Why do I feel that it is better than a third-rate martial arts..."

Wang Gong was stunned. Those fourteen people were all warriors at the fifth level. Even if Hou Yujie was at the tenth level, the fourteen people would not be able to fight back at all if they unite!

But the scene that happened in front of me was indeed real.

"Wang Biaotou, my elder brother thinks you are a talented person, and asked me to bring you a message, asking if you would like to join our Hou family. I wonder what Wang Biaotou thinks?"

The cold voice reached his ears, and Wang Gong's body trembled. He had also been in a third-rate force before, but this was the first time he had seen such a murderous and ruthless person.

"It is my blessing to be favored by Boss Hou. From today on, Wang Gong is willing to serve the Hou family in front of and behind the horse!"

Wang Gong knelt down directly on the ground and saluted Hou Yujie respectfully.

Hou Yujie's gloomy expression melted away a little, and he looked at the three carriages with a smile on his face.

"Hou Cun, you first take people to clean up the official road with Mr. Wang, and then replace the flying eagle logos on the three carriages. Once that's done, go back through the official road!"

"As you command, Fourth Master."
