The name of a man is like the shadow of a tree. The name of the eldest son of the Ning family is still quite famous in Ancheng. Before, the Ning family was also a powerful family in Ancheng, and even Zhou Hua and the county magistrate were guests of the Ning family. It’s just a pity that the Ning family was destroyed overnight, leaving only Ning Fan, who was sent to the army and completely reduced to a slave. “What are you talking about? Ning Fan has been sent to the army and is now a slave. Now that the Northern Mang has broken through the pass, who knows whether he is still alive.” Zhou Hua frowned and said. He knew Ning Fan, and he also knew that Ning Fan was a rich boy with a good appearance. Being reduced to a slave was equivalent to announcing his death. A young man from a rich family, delicate and tender, without any cultivation, not even a warrior, thrown into a battlefield like purgatory, he is doomed.

Still want to come out alive?

“Sir, look, that’s Ning Fan!”

A yamen runner rushed to Zhou Hua’s side, pointed at Ning Fan who was slowly coming in front of him, and said in shock.

Zhou Hua also frowned and looked over, and when he saw Ning Fan, his face suddenly changed.

Ning Fan, how did he come back alive?

No, why is he still wearing a set of silver armor, could it be…

Thinking of this, Zhou Hua hurriedly shook his head, he himself felt that his idea was absurd, how could Ning Fan be the head of the city stationed in Ancheng?

“Sir, Ning Fan must have been a deserter. Think about it, how could a weak young man like him survive on the battlefield?”

“And the silver armor he was wearing must have been stolen. Even if he survived by chance, he was already a lowly person. He couldn’t kill more than a hundred enemies and regain his status as a good person, right?”

“Yes, yes, yes, what a Ning Fan, he is so bold!”

“Hmph, since he has been a deserter, he dared to return to Ancheng. I think he is really tired of living and is looking for death!”

For a while, more than a dozen yamen runners sneered.

Zhou Hua frowned, always feeling that something was wrong.

If Ning Fan really was a deserter, would he dare to return to Ancheng so swaggeringly, riding a horse and wearing silver armor? Such swagger is purely looking for death!

As he spoke, Ning Fan, who was riding a horse alone, had already arrived outside the city. He looked at the familiar Zhou Hua in front of him, and a smile rose at the corner of his mouth.

“Hey, isn’t this Lord Zhou? Long time no see!”

Ning Fan half leaned over the horse and smiled.

Before Zhou Hua spoke, a yamen runner stood up behind him and weighed the sword on his waist: “Ning Fan, you are so brave!”

“Tell me, how did you escape from the army, how did you become a deserter and still escape the pursuit!”

“Whose warhorse did you steal, and whose silver armor did you steal!”

Ning Fan raised his eyebrows at the yamen runner’s words.

He still had a smile on his face: “Tsk tsk, your name is An Liu’er, right? I remember that a year ago, you were no different from a pug in front of me.”

“Now, it’s time to be different.”

Pug!

The yamen runner named An Liu’er was furious and drew out the sword on his waist, pointing the tip of the knife directly at Ning Fan.

“You have no right to ride a horse in front of the county magistrate. Get off my horse, or I will kill you today!”

An Liuer cursed.

Ning Fan looked at the knife tip in front of him and smiled even more brightly.

“Master Zhou?”

Ning Fan smiled and said.

Zhou Hua frowned: “Ning Fan, you are too ignorant!”

“Your parents are extremely evil and have been executed. The court has made you a slave and sent you to exile. How dare you run away privately?”

“Now, with the enemy at hand, you are a deserter, stealing horses and silver armor, wearing them on yourself, and cheating people. You are simply committing a heinous crime!”

“I have some friendship with your parents when they were alive, and I can’t bear to see you continue to make mistakes like this.”

“Come on, drive Ning Fan off the horse, take him to the county government, and throw him into the water dungeon!”

“After meeting the head of the city, I will personally interrogate him!”

With these words, Ning Fan was completely convicted of a serious crime!

“Deserter… thief.”

“Tsk tsk, Lord Zhou is still so indiscriminate, accusing me of all sorts of crimes, just like the ones he used to accuse my parents of.”

Ning Fan’s words made Zhou Hua’s pupils shrink sharply, and then his eyes were bloodshot.

“How dare you!”

“Get off my horse!”

The yamen runners on the side cursed and rushed to Ning Fan, pulling him off his horse.

Ning Fan did not resist, and was pulled down.

Choke!

One saber after another came out of their sheaths, and the blades were pointed directly at Ning Fan’s throat.



Ning Fan, Grandpa wants your life in a split second. If you dare to yell in front of the county magistrate again, Grandpa will chop off your dog head!”

An Liuer cursed.

The smile on Ning Fan’s face gradually faded, replaced by an unprecedented coldness. Those two eyes were like thunder, and everyone didn’t know what was going on, and their hearts trembled wildly.

“Zhou Hua, do you know what crime it is to brandish a sword and a gun in front of an official appointed by the court?”

Ning Fan spoke.

Everyone was stunned, and then burst into laughter.

“Oh, an official appointed by the court, you are so stupid that you really think you are a big shot. You are such a piece of shit that you will never be able to show up in your life!”

“Don’t say you are a deserter today. Even if you are an official appointed by the court, I want to chop off your dog head, and I will chop it off. What can you do?”

“Sir, if you say something, I will chop off his head! ”

The yamen runners started to shout.

Zhou Hua’s eyes were also filled with sarcasm: “Ning Fan, you are too arrogant. Do you know that pretending to be an official appointed by the court will cost you your head!”

“Oh, by the way, I forgot that you have committed a capital crime.”

“Forget it, after all, he is the only son of my old friend. He should not be able to face the tragedy in front of him. He has gone crazy. Take him away and throw him into the water dungeon.”

Zhou Hua waved his hand impatiently.

Then, he looked forward.

At this moment, figures appeared from afar.

Thousands of soldiers came quickly.

The footsteps were sonorous and the march was well-trained!

“Here they come!”

Zhou Hua hurriedly straightened his collar, and then told everyone to take Ning Fan away quickly, so as not to disturb the new captain.

“Prepare for battle! ”

But no one expected that when the thousand-man army on the opposite side saw the people under the city, they shouted angrily.

The army, which was originally running lightly, suddenly lined up, and then held weapons in hand, a murderous aura that made people’s heart and gall bladders spread instantly, and the murderous intent was surging.

Under the city gate, Zhou Hua and the dozen or so yamen runners had never seen such a scene. They were scared and their faces turned pale, and their calves were trembling.

Thousands of people charged and killed in front of Zhou Hua and others at the fastest speed.

Boom!

Line up, prepare to charge!

Zhou Hua and others were completely scared, and even some of the yamen runners would have collapsed on the ground if they were not supported by their companions.

“Misunderstanding, this is a misunderstanding!”

Zhou Hua hurriedly said.

A captain walked out and looked at Zhou Hua and others with a grim look in his eyes: “Misunderstanding? You put a knife on the neck of our head, this is called a misunderstanding?”
