The narrow alley fell into a dead silence.
"Gulp!"
Someone swallowed a mouthful of saliva. At this moment, it was exceptionally clear.
"Boss…Boss, what should we do?"
"It really is Great General Cheng!"
Everyone was panicking. They wanted to cry but had no tears in their hearts. They had robbed someone on the street, but they did not expect it to be the Great General of the current dynasty!
Looking at the blood on the ground, Cheng Yaojin was covered in bruises.
The hoodlum was about to cry.
What the hell is this? Why did a general like you come to Xi City for a drink?
Wasn't it nice to drink and play with the maids in his own mansion?
If not, go to East City!
If they offended the current Great General, how could they possibly live?
The leader of the hoodlums looked around. It was quiet and dark, and no one had passed by.
A terrifying thought slowly rose in his mind.
He gritted his teeth and pulled out a knife from his back with trembling hands.
His eyes revealed a hint of ruthlessness.
The hoodlums were frightened and said in a trembling voice,"Boss…Boss, what are you doing?”
"In for a penny, in for a pound," the ruffian leader said fiercely,"We might as well kill him."”
Everyone was so frightened that their spirits were out of their bodies." Boss, why do we have to do this? There's no one around. We'll just leave him behind and escape."”
"Why kill?"
While they were talking, Cheng Yaojin suddenly moved on the ground, scaring everyone.
Unexpectedly, he just flipped over and his entire body was like a mountain of meat as he lay on the ground again.
He was still murmuring to himself, but no one knew what he was saying.
When the group saw Cheng Yaojin fall asleep again, they could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
It turned out that this fellow was just drunk.
Even though he was drunk all day, muddleheaded, and had a fat head, his body was still strong. The kicks and punches of the hoodlums would only leave him with some superficial injuries.
However, the cudgel and the bloodstains on the wounds were shocking!
The leader of the hoodlums cursed,"What bad luck!"”
"Don't forget, he has seen our faces!”
"As long as one of us is found out, the rest won't be able to escape!”
"Do you want to die?"
The leader of the hoodlums immediately woke everyone up.
Yes, when Cheng Yaojin woke up and found himself covered in injuries, he would definitely send someone to investigate!
According to the rumors, General Zhong Cheng's personality was one that would rather kill the wrong person than let go. If there was even a trace of suspicion, he might just chop off his head!
However, he was still a little afraid when he looked at Cheng Yaojin on the ground.
My dear mother, that's Cheng Yaojin, the demon king of chaos, a ruthless killer!
The vanguard of Lin Shuai's troops!
Even His Majesty had to give in to him!
Now, he actually wanted to take the opportunity to plot against him?
"If you don't come, I will!"
The ruffian was filled with evil and walked toward Cheng Yaojin with his knife.
As long as they were cleaned up, they could escape from Chang 'an and hide for a few years.
It was better than being chased by the government troops tomorrow.
The sharp knife in his hand glinted with a cold light. As the night wind blew, his forehead was covered in sweat!
The hoodlum grabbed his right arm with his left hand, trying to stop himself from trembling.
He took a deep breath and was about to stab Cheng Yaojin with the blade in his hand.
Suddenly, a shout came from the alley!
The ruffian was so frightened by this sound that his entire body trembled. With a clang, the blade in his hand immediately fell to the ground.
"How dare you!"
"Do you know who this person is?"
"If you hurt him, your entire clan will be exterminated!”
Everyone turned their heads and saw a thin and hale old man standing at the entrance of the alley.
His face was still unclear in the dark alley.
"Stop…Stop bluffing!"
The ruffian wiped the sweat off his forehead and picked up the knife from the ground.
The viciousness in his eyes gradually turned into madness.
It would have been fine if no one had seen them before.
However, now that someone had seen them, there was no chance of turning back!
Not only Cheng Yaojin, but this meddlesome old man also had to die!
He held his saber and approached the skinny old man step by step.
His tone gradually became cold and terrifying.
"I don't care who he is. Since you saw it today, you can only blame your bad luck.”
"Die!"
The ruffian raised his dagger and stabbed it at the old man's chest.
The cold light drew an arc in the darkness.
"Hehe, this trash dares to attack me?”
The old man sneered.
With a clang, it sounded like a long dragon's roar!
A long sword was pulled out from his waist!
His speed was extremely fast, and he arrived first!
In the blink of an eye, the ruffian's head was chopped off!
"Clang!"
The corpse and the dagger fell to the ground.
The ruffian head rolled along the stone slab with a ferocious expression in front of everyone.
After a brief moment of silence, the alley suddenly erupted with extremely terrified screams.
"Murder…Murder!"
They watched as the sword-wielding old man approached step by step. They wanted to escape, but their legs were as if they were filled with lead. They could not move at all!
"Hualala-"
The sound of orderly footsteps suddenly came from outside the alley. There was also the sound of weapons and armor rubbing against each other.
The large group of soldiers immediately surrounded the place, and the torches lit up the originally dark alley.
"Take him down!"
A general waved his hand, and a few soldiers rushed forward, pressing the hooligans to the ground and taking them away.
"Lord Wei, how do you think we should deal with these people?”
The general asked respectfully behind the skinny old man.
"Just cut him down. There's no need to talk so much.”
The old man said concisely, but he looked at the drunk Cheng Yaojin with a complicated gaze.
He didn't expect Cheng Yaojin to degenerate into such a state in three years.
He had a fat head, big ears, and unkempt hair. Even a few hooligans could lay their hands on him.
In the past, even if Cheng Yaojin was drunk, he would be able to defeat a warhorse with a single punch.
And now…
Wei Zheng shook his head slightly and sighed to the general beside him.
"Take General Cheng back. It's time for him to sober up.”
"The Great Tang is waiting for them to return.”
