"Your brother Qiao Mu is a centurion in our Yancheng army. He is known for his bravery and leading the way. I have always admired him and gave him the position of centurion before he was admitted. You can go and find out about this. . And the key is that it was not me who killed him, but the bandits outside the city."

Qiao Mu smiled and said:

"What a flawless city lord. Your son is domineering and careless about human life. He bears all the bad reputation. But you can flawlessly earn a good reputation. At most, you only have lax discipline."

"If the people don't speak up, it's you, right?"

The city lord frowned: "As a foreigner, how can you understand the affairs of this city better than the local people? The people didn't say anything, so why are you anxious?"

Qiao Mu said seriously: "The people in the city were born in Yancheng. They each have families, so naturally they have concerns and fears, and they dare not speak nonsense."

"The Lord of the City has always been known as a playboy. When traveling, he will always let his servants hold whips to clear the way. He robs people in the street and takes human life lightly... The people dare not say that you, the Lord of the City, Guo Yan, are wrong. At most, they can only say that the playboy is running rampant and domineering."

"They dare not tell the truth and can only watch. This is not their fault. If you have the spare power, you should punish the evil and promote the good. If you don't have the spare power, you should protect yourself first. This is the responsibility for yourself and your family."

"But I am different from them."

Qiao Mu tightened his grip on the spear in his hand, and there was a trace of sadness in his eyes. He gradually fell into the drama:

"My family, my brother Qiao Mu is dead."

"Since I have nothing to worry about, I naturally want to be such a tough guy!" Qiao Mu shouted:

"What others dare not say or do, I will do it!"

Qiao Mu admitted that he was acting, he just wanted to die, and he was not as righteous as he said.

But this did not affect the joy that filled his chest after saying these words.

Born to be immortal, he is the one who always has spare power, so naturally he will not sit idly by and ignore it!

After saying these words, the expressions of the surrounding guards in the courtyard changed.

Before, they only knew this person was Qiao Lin.

This time when he broke into the house, he wanted nothing more than to avenge his brother.

Blood revenge is common sense in the world.

It's just that Qiao Lin didn't change his face and reasoned when he saw that he was under heavy siege. Looking at this posture, it seemed that he was not just avenging his brother.

This incident started due to the death of Qiao Mu, but it was not just because of this that Qiao Lin risked his life to break into the house.

Even if they were the subordinates of the city lord, this matter still touched their hearts to some extent.

In this troubled world, there are many people who are just trying to survive, but few are men who don't care about life and death.

Outside the city lord's palace, the swordsman Jiang Chen left and returned, using Qing Kung Fu to hide on a nearby roof, listening to the movements here from a distance.

He had already gotten rid of his pursuers, but he left and returned after hearing the whistle from the City Lord's Mansion, but he didn't expect to see such a scene.

"This Qiaomu Qiaolin is a true righteous man... I just don't know what kind of family this Qiao family is that can cultivate two brothers like this." He admired in his heart.

City Lord Guo Yan's face slowly darkened.

He gradually realized that Qiao Lin was even more stubborn than Qiao Mu, and he seemed unable to convince him.

"Qiao Lin, you are a good man who puts life and death at risk." Guo Yan could only say:

"However, your brother Qiao Mu has been killed by bandits. Are you so willing to risk your life that you must make sure that your Qiao family has no descendants?"

At this time, Guo Yan already had some doubts about the so-called "Qiao family".

At first Qiao Mu also said that he was a nobody with no background, but in the end he killed one Qiao Mu and two brothers came to him. One person went to the funeral in public, and the other secretly broke into the city lord's palace.

Just asking like this played into Qiao Mu's hands.

When Mr. Guo carried the coffin into the house yesterday, Qiao Mu acted in such a high-profile manner. Wasn't it just to firmly hold back the hatred so that Qiao Canxue could leave secretly.

As long as she leaves this corner of Yancheng, it won't be a big problem.

"I, Qiao Lin, am a reckless man! Why should I be afraid of death!" Qiao Mu laughed and said:

"The Qiao family's motto is, die a worthy death!"

"I, Qiao Lin, only hate the dude who can't kill people with his bare hands. I'm just worried that I can't express my ambition, and I'm afraid that I won't die a worthy death!"

These words immediately touched the hearts of everyone around him, and the city lord even changed his expression slightly.

What kind of family would pass down "die well" as a family motto?

Of all the wealthy families in this world, how could they not want to spread their branches and thrive?

As for the Qiao family, the family motto of a well-deserved death is shouted out. Is this because they think their descendants are not dying fast enough?

But Qiao Mu did not give the city lord time to react.

Today, he is going to make things worse!

"Qiao Mu is dead!"

"He is weak, he deserves to die!"

"You are strong and you are right! Isn't this what the city lord taught my brother personally on the streets of Yancheng that day?"

"No matter how nice the truth is, it is not as powerful as the city lord. This is the greatest truth in the world!"

In the past, when the trees were not yet finished, they would angrily attack the city lord in the street when something happened, and he would die tragically from the swords of bandits.

He died and became stronger.

Well now, he has a greater sense.

"Today, I, Qiao Lin, will come to talk to the city lord about my principles!"

The words just fell.

The spear in Qiao Mu's hand suddenly stabbed out.

Mr. Guo, who was pulled in front of him by Qiao Mu, was shocked and looked down at his chest in disbelief.

The tip of a spear had penetrated into his heart from the back, and blood was gurgling out.

It happened so suddenly.

The city lord Guo Yan thought that since he was threatening his own son, there would be some negotiation, and Mr. Guo also thought that if his father came forward, he would have a chance of survival.

But Qiao Mu's shot suddenly pierced their hopes.

With blood soaking his clothes, Mr. Guo stumbled forward two steps, looking at his biological father Guo Yan, his eyes gradually lost their luster.

"I...I want to live..."

After saying this, his body collapsed to the ground, unable to get up.

Qiao Mu looked at Mr. Guo's body quietly and said to himself:

Do you want to live? Lao Huang also wants his seventh child to survive...

Chapter 42 A single tree cannot make a forest

Mr. Guo is dead.

The death was extremely sudden.

Everyone present, including the city lord Guo Yan and the many guards in the surrounding courtyard, all thought that Qiao Mu must have some agenda for holding Mr. Guo hostage, maybe it was gold, silver, jewelry, or other rare things.

As long as Qiao Mu wants something, City Lord Guo Yan can try to talk to him.

But what no one expected was that Qiao Mu would be so decisive and so sudden in killing Mr. Guo.

What is he planning? After finally capturing such an important and valuable hostage, you can't just kill him in front of the city lord, right?

The city lord was also trembling.

He, who had always had the city in his heart, now looked at the corpse on the ground that was gradually losing its vitality, his pupils trembling.

"Why?"

He took a step forward, his voice low.

City Lord Guo Yan's body was like an iron tower, quite majestic, but at this moment, his eyes were gradually filled with bloodshot eyes, and his breathing was slightly heavy.

He originally thought that everything could be discussed.

In his eyes, Qiao Mu's tough stance and those righteous remarks were just a way of applying pressure in negotiations, nothing more than an exchange of bargaining chips.

You raise your prices to the sky and occupy a righteous position.

Then, as the lord of the city, I will bow my head to you, a murderer, and I will make other calculations later.

He has been here like this for so many years.

But now he felt like he was being played.

This Qiao Mu kidnapped Mr. Guo not to gain any benefit by blackmailing him! We are not here to negotiate with him at all!

"Why?" Qiao Mu smiled.

"In that case, why not ask the souls who have died under your father and son over the years? Do you think they also want to ask you why?"

"I'm asking you why? Don't you just want to negotiate terms? Are you pretending to be a righteous person?" Guo Yan roared, his voice a little out of control.

Qiao Mu smiled.

What I want is your effect.

"City Lord, I told you a long time ago."

"I came to Yancheng this time just to talk to the city lord."

"I am a commoner with no power. How can I reason with the Lord of the City if I don't kidnap him?"

"Now, I have finished my reasoning."

Qiao Mu held the bloody spear in his hand and stared at the corpse at his feet.

"If there is no reward for good and evil, there will be selfishness in the world!" He looked at it with awe-inspiring eyes and read aloud:

"If Qian Kun doesn't repay you, I will repay you!"

Everyone was stunned.

But after being stunned, Qiao Mu's words just now inevitably echoed in his heart.

No wonder he took Mr. Guo hostage but still wanted to kill him.

It turns out that those high-sounding and righteous words he just said didn't just sound pleasant to the ears.

It turns out that he did not come to negotiate terms with the city lord Guo Yan to seek benefits under the banner of righteousness, holding on to the life of the city lord's son.

It turns out that in this world, there really are men who value justice over life and death and dare to be the first in the world!

Bank gangsters need hostages because they want to get out alive.

But Qiao Mu doesn't need it.

Next, let this storm come more violently.

Under the gaze of everyone.

Qiao Mu leaned down, approached Mr. Guo's fallen body, and pulled out a sword from his waist.

This sword is exquisite in shape, with complex hollow patterns on the hilt, and a blue-white jade inlaid on the top. It is obviously a fine-looking item, and no one has seen Mr. Guo use it.

Qiao Mu drew out his long sword and threw it casually. The sword flew towards the city lord Guo Yan, and finally landed on the wooden floor in front of him. The blade sank a few inches and the hilt trembled slightly.

Guo Yan remained still for a moment, raised his eyes and looked at Qiao Mu expressionlessly.

"Guo Yan." Qiao Mu shouted flatly:

"Pick up your sword and come up!"

"Kill me, an unruly and inflexible man!"

Guo Yan's face suddenly darkened.

He put his hand on the hilt of the sword at his feet, and just when he lifted the sword with all his strength, he felt a tightness in his chest and shortness of breath, and he vomited a mouthful of blood.

He was already injured, but Qiao Mu provoked him so much that his energy and blood surged, and he was already vomiting blood before he could do anything.

But after vomiting blood, his steps stopped.

"You're trying to piss me off, aren't you?" he whispered.

He had a stern face, but did not try to step forward. Instead, he waved to the many guards in the distance.
