Diary of the life of a working wizard
Chapter 1597 Responsibility
"I know how to correct my attitude now, but it's already too late." Zhou Liang felt particularly relieved when he heard Cui Shuo begging for mercy. He said coldly, his eyes lingering on the skull rosary for a while, and there was a trace of reluctance. Then he handed it back to Xia Yunjie.
Xia Yunjie took the skull rosary, held the golden skull rosary, and rubbed it gently with his two fingers.
He rubbed it gently, and the fire inside the rosary suddenly became strong, causing Cui Shuo to scream repeatedly. Zhou Liang, the county captain in charge of the soldiers, was terrified, and looked at Xia Yunjie unconsciously. Zhongdu had a hint of awe.
He didn't think he was as capable as Xia Yunjie. He entered Cui Shuo's mansion and not only killed Yu Wendu, but also sealed Cui Shuo into the skull rosary and refined it.
"Lord Zhou, I heard that Cui Shuo's eldest brother is the leader of the Withered Bones Sect. He has four immortal elixir-level immortals to protect him, thirty-six flying bronze corpses, disciples and soldiers like clouds. Now I have killed Cui Shuo. I wonder how Mr. Zhou Liang is going to handle this matter?" Xia Yunjie ignored Cui Shuo's screams and asked while rubbing the rosary and looking at Zhou Liang.
Seeing Xia Yunjie mentioning the leader of the Withered Bone Sect, Zhou Liang's face suddenly darkened, and he pondered for a long time before saying: "The old demon Cui Yan is indeed very powerful. If he knows that we have killed Cui Shuo, he will definitely not give up. Now, The matter must be reported to the county magistrate so that we can prepare in advance."
The word "we" made it clear that Zhou Liang's position was on Xia Yunjie's side. This made Xia Yunjie secretly nod, knowing that Zhou Liang still had some courage and responsibility this time, and would not be in a hurry just because the Withered Bone Sect was so powerful. To separate yourself.
"Thank you, sir. I will obey your orders in all my humble duties." Since Zhou Liang was willing to take on the responsibility, Xia Yunjie naturally continued to abide by his duty as a captain and said to Zhou Liang, otherwise he would have to face more setbacks.
"Okay, with a tiger general like you here, even if the old demon Cui Yan comes, I will definitely tell him not to get any benefits." Zhou Liang saw that although Xia Yunjie had the strength to kill Cui Shuo, he was not proud at all. He liked it very much in his heart. He nodded repeatedly and praised Xia Yunjie. Then, with a hint of embarrassment on his face, he asked: "Master Xia, Cui Shuo has quite a bit of property in the county. Since this person is you, The one who killed him, you have to decide what to do with his property."
At this moment, even though Xia Yunjie was now just a commander under his command, Zhou Liang did not dare to act like a county captain anymore and wanted to call Xia Yunjie Lord Xia.
"Everything is at your discretion!" Xia Yunjie said without hesitation, clasping his fists.
Xia Yunjie has the Immortal Mountain in hand, but he doesn't like Cui Shuo's family fortune. But for Zhou Liang, this was a huge fortune, and he was naturally concerned about it. In fact, Zhou Liang was willing to share responsibilities for Xia Yunjie, not only because he was a somewhat responsible officer, but also partly because of the huge industrial wealth under Cui Shuo's name.
As the saying goes, people die for money and birds die for food. Zhou Liang originally thought that Xia Yunjie would definitely argue with him on this matter, and he had already thought of some excuses. For example, if the Withered Bone Cult attacks, it will need to spend huge sums of money to recruit troops, obtain the support of the county magistrate and county magistrate, and even some of them will need to be sent out, etc. However, Zhou Liang never expected that Xia Yunjie would be so aggressive and directly said, "Everything is at your discretion."
For a moment, Zhou Liang couldn't help but feel elated with joy, seeing how Xia Yunjie liked it.
"Okay, okay, don't worry, I won't treat you badly." Zhou Liang patted Xia Yunjie on the shoulder and said.
"Thank you, sir. I'll leave the Cui Mansion matters to you. It's the first day for a new official to take office. He's not even familiar with the soldiers and generals under his command, but he has to go back quickly so that he can familiarize himself with the affairs of the military camp as soon as possible." Xia Yunjie said, cupping his fists.
"Go, go." Seeing that Xia Yunjie had completely let go of the matter, Zhou Liang was naturally happy and nodded with a smile.
So Xia Yunjie got on the horse again, hugged Captain Zhang Ming, and then called the three centurions who came with Zhou Liang, and left the Cui Mansion together.
"This Xia Yunjie is not simple! He was able to kill Cui Shuo and Yu Wendu with one person. With such strength, even the county magistrate may not be able to do this. Fortunately, Yingxian Guan persuaded him to join me. Otherwise, we might have another unruly force in Qianxi County. Now it has greatly increased the strength of our county government." Looking at the back of Xia Yunjie galloping away, Zhou Liang was filled with emotion and joy.
"That's true, but the Withered Bones Cult is extremely powerful. Are you really prepared to fight with the Withered Bones Cult over this Xia Yunjie?" Zhang Ming's face was a bit solemn and worried.
"If not, do you want me to capture this Xia Yunjie and give it to Cui Yan Lao Mo? If this is the case, where is the majesty of my government? Who will fear my government in the future?" Zhou Liang said solemnly.
"Being humble doesn't mean that. What being humble means is that it's better to persuade Xia Yunjie to leave Qianxi County. In this way, even if Cui Yan wants to take revenge, he won't be able to find us." Zhang Ming said.
"Xia Yunjie is new here, and he dares to kill the Cui Mansion for a centurion woman he has just met. He is a county lieutenant in Qianxi County. He is protected by a tall and solid city wall and has tens of thousands of soldiers. Don’t you even have the courage to defend yourself against the enemy? Let’s not talk about this anymore.” Zhou Liang waved his hands with a stern face.
Zhang Ming opened his mouth, but finally closed it.
Seeing that Zhang Ming no longer tried to persuade him, Zhou Liang calmed down a little and stormed into the Cui Mansion with his men and horses.
…
In the west of the city, there is the military camp under Xia Yunjie's jurisdiction.
The soldiers saw the centurion leading the way back with seven centurions, and among them there was an extra delicate woman. Who else could it be, Luo Yu, not centurion Zheng Xuan's woman?
Suddenly, the entire military camp was shocked and excited.
They all thought that the newly appointed commander, Zheng Xuan and others would shed a layer of skin even if they did not die. As for Miss Luo Yu, they did not dare to think about it at all.
Can they still rescue Luo Yu from Cui Shuo?
But what now? Not only did the captain and the others come back safe and sound, but even Miss Luo Yu came back with them. How is this possible? This was completely beyond their expectations!
However, when Centurion Deng Ling told the soldiers with pride and excitement that the Thousand Centurion killed Cui Shuo and Yuwendu with one person, the soldiers seemed to be listening to a book from heaven and could not recover for a long time. When they realized what was going on, they all couldn't help but tremble all over.
Cui Shuo, Yu Wendu, are the Heavenly Immortal level experts who are famous throughout the county. One of them is an Immortal Level Heavenly Immortal, and he is a powerful person at the same level as their County Captain! But now, he was killed by their newly appointed chief!
