The shouting stopped.
Outside the gate of the headquarter of Shennong Faction, the atmosphere was strangely quiet. The people who were observing openly and secretly seemed to forget to breathe and could clearly hear their own heartbeats.
Ma Junwu's expression changed.
Did the county magistrate win?
He hesitated, finally made up his mind and was about to go in.
Suddenly, there was a thunderous roar of horse hooves behind him.
More than five hundred soldiers and guards of Taibai County, led by Dianshi janitor Zheng Longxing, hurried to arrive.
"Ma Junwu, where is the county magistrate?" He asked from a distance.
"Reporting to Dianshi janitor, His Honor Li has gone in …" Ma Junwu said respectfully.
He was the Dutou Official, and Dianshi janitor Zheng Longxing was his immediate superior, so he dared not to neglect him.
"Then why are you still outside? Boys, don't stop, follow me to save the county magistrate. " Zheng Longxing shouted with an anxious and worried look. He urged the horse under his crotch, like a lightning, and rushed into the collapsed gate of Shennong Faction first.
Zheng Longxing came?
All the people who were observing secretly around saw this scene, and they all had a strange feeling in their hearts.
What did this mean?
Everyone knew that the person who supported Shennong Faction behind these years was Dianshi janitor Zheng.
Why Shennong Faction angered Li Mu, and the reason behind it, some smart and flexible people could guess it after a little thinking. Now Shennong Faction was eradicated, which was equivalent to cutting off one of Zheng Longxing's arms. Could it be counted as lifting a stone only to drop it on one's own feet?
Zheng Longxing came in such a hurry, it was estimated that he wanted to take the opportunity to destroy some evidence of collusion with Shennong Faction, and wanted to get away.
However, how could it be so easy?
Everyone knew that this time, Dianshi janitor Zheng was in big trouble.
When Zheng Longxing and others just rushed in, there was another rush of footsteps in the distance.
They saw Zhou Wu, the county magistrate, with about three hundred soldiers and horses, hurried to come.
However, in the front of Zhou Wu, besides the secretary Feng Yuanxing, there were two little attendants of Li Mu, Qing Feng and Ming Yue. No one knew how they got together with Zhou Wu.
"Ma Junwu, where is Master Li?" Zhou Wuhe acted exactly like Zheng Longxing and asked with concern from afar.
Ma Junwu pointed at the gate of the Shennong Faction's headquarter and didn't say anything …
Whoosh!
A gust of wind rushed past him.
"Young Master, Young Master, are you inside … Are you dead? Are you still alive? " The naturally adorable girl, Ming Yue, broke out. Like a wild dog out of its leash, she pulled the anxious and sweaty little boy, Qing Feng, and directly rushed in, leaving Zhou Wu and others behind to eat the dust.
So fast!
Ma Junwu was stunned.
What kind of food did this little girl eat growing up? How could she run so fast?
"What? Dianshi janitor Zheng had already gone in? This … Hurry, hurry, hurry, go in and save Lord Li. " When Zhou Wu heard that Dianshi janitor Zheng Longxing had entered the ruins of the headquarter, he was very anxious. He thought that he could not let Zheng Longxing destroy the evidence in advance to clear his name. He rushed in with his trusted subordinates regardless of anything.
Looking at Zhou Wu's worried and impatient look, people who didn't know would think that it was his parents who were trapped inside.
At this time, Ma Junwu no longer hesitated and immediately followed them to rush in.
Soon, they saw the ruins in the stone forest.
"Oh my god, this …"
In the stone forest of the headquarter, everyone was shocked again and again.
In the stone forest of Shennong Faction, it didn't seem that there was a battle at all, but more like a devastating earthquake.
Almost all the buildings collapsed, the rocks collapsed, and some of them had clear fist prints and footprints. Broken limbs were everywhere, and there were spraying blood, meat, and bone fragments … The corpses of the four King Kongs had been collected by the guards who had entered before. Almost none of the core disciples of Shennong Faction had a complete body, and they were all beaten alive.
Seeing such traces, Zhou Wu, Feng Yuanxing, and Ma Junwu were all trembling inside.
It could be imagined how terrible the battle was at that time.
Although he had heard the news from his trusted subordinates, Zhou Wu still couldn't help but be shocked again when he saw such a battle scene with his own eyes. In his heart, he could not help but have a sense of fear and powerlessness. Obviously, Li Mu's real strength was much stronger than his previous worst estimation. Vaguely, he felt as if he was facing a violent prehistoric giant beast, rather than a scholar who was less than 15 years old.
Zhou Wu suppressed the panic in his heart, turned around and whispered something to Feng Yuanxing, the secretary, who was following him.
Feng Yuanxing nodded, and then waved his hand, leading a team of elite guards to disperse in all directions.
Ma Junwu thought about it, and still followed the deputy county magistrate Zhou Wu and did not leave.
The more they went in, the more terrible the traces of the battle were.
Ma Junwu saw a natural stone pillar that required five or six people to wrap their arms around it. It was broken in the middle, and there was a fist mark that was half a meter deep at the fracture point. It was obvious that this stone pillar had been broken by a single punch. Just thinking about it made him shudder. What kind of power could do this?
Even if he was at the peak of Joint-qi level, it was impossible to blast such a terrible power with bare hands.
Deputy county magistrate Zhou Wu's face also changed constantly.
He was also a martial arts master, and naturally knew what the traces of the battle he saw along the way meant.
Shennong Faction was one of the four gangs in Taibai County, and it was the most difficult gang to provoke. Its disciples were good at using poison and all kinds of insidious means. In the fight for power, Zhou Wu also thought about eradicating Shennong Faction by several major cases, so that he could cut off the arm of Dianshi janitor Zheng Longxing. But several plans failed, and even some losses, and the status and power of Shennong Faction became more and more stable.
But now, such a stubborn force had been wiped out by a single person in less than two hours.
Zhou Wu only felt a burst of chill on his back.
The faces of the trusted warriors who followed him were also pale and embarrassed. A few of the trusted servants were so frightened that they trembled with fear when they saw the tragic scene of blood flowing like mud and white bones like firewood. There were even a few of them who couldn't help but vomit at the side.
A group of people hurried forward about a kilometer, and came to the entrance of the grotto of the headquarters of Shennong Faction.
Surprisingly, Dianshi janitor Zheng Longxing and more than a hundred confidant guards under his command just stood at the entrance, and did not follow them in.
A group of people stood at the entrance of the grotto, and it seemed that they were hesitating for some reason.
Hearing the footsteps, Zheng Longxing looked back and saw Zhou Wu and others, and a trace of insidiousness flashed in his eyes.
But this expression quickly flashed away. The next moment, the expression on Zheng Longxing's face changed into a gentle smile, as if he saw an old friend who hadn't seen for many years. He laughed and said, "Mr. Zhou, you come so fast, and this matter even alarmed you."
Zhou Wu also put on a fake smile, walked quickly, cupped his hands and said, "I have to come. The county magistrate is in danger, and I have to come to save him. Haha, I heard that some people want to murder Mr. Li … Haha, but you, Mr. Zheng, unexpectedly came faster than me. I admire you."
"Haha, I am the Dianshi janitor of this county, in charge of the military ranks, and it is within my responsibility. Of course, I come early." Zheng Longxing smiled.
The two people talked in a friendly way, and they were full of smiles.
Those who did not know would think that the two giants in Taibai County were really brothers of the same mother.
"Oh, in that case, why didn't Mr. Zheng go in?" Zhou Wu asked.
Zheng Longxing smiled slightly, and did not answer.
He had been at the door of the grotto for 10 minutes, but he had not entered.
The reason was very simple. There was no movement in the grotto. He even tried to shout a few times, but there was no response. He also sent people to look around the grotto, and there was no trace of chasing, so he could be sure that both Sikong Jing and Li Mu were in the grotto.
Perhaps … they perished together?
Zheng Longxing knew Sikong Jing very well. Sikong Jing was cruel and merciless, and he would seek revenge for the smallest grievance. Besides, he had a lot of trump cards and his means were insidious. "Maybe Li Mu broke into the grotto and was schemed by Sikong Jing, and he finally died with Sikong Jing.
If that was the case, then it would be great.
Therefore, Zheng Longxing stood at the door, watching and hesitating.
He was worried that if he went in, it would be embarrassing if Li Mu was not completely dead. However, things had become so serious that he did not dare to rush in to kill Li Mu in front of so many soldiers.
With such a little hesitation, Zhou Wu came.
And Zheng Longxing's mind, Zhou Wu soon figured it out.
If Li Mu died inside, it was absolutely great news for Zhou Wu. As long as he took advantage of this matter and operated a little, he could defeat Zheng Longxing, and then the position of the head of Taibai County would definitely be in his pocket.
This was simply a godsend opportunity.
Thinking of this, Zhou Wu also prayed in his heart that it was better to let Li Mu die inside.
The two groups of people just stood at the door of the grotto, slightly deadlocked, and did not go in. They were all silent, and the atmosphere was very strange.
At this moment, a cry came from the grotto —
"Young Master, what's wrong with you? Sob sob sob, Young Master, you … "
It was the sad voice of the little boy Qing Feng.
Before, when Zheng Longxing was hesitating, the two little boys Qing Feng and Ming Yue rushed in regardless of the obstruction. At this time, it was obvious that they found something. Listening to the little boy crying so sadly, they were afraid that Li Mu really died inside, and it was absolutely not a good sign.
Zhou Wu's face showed joy.
Zheng Longxing also quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Go, go in and support Lord Li."
"Go in!"
After the two of them gave the order, they led the hundreds of soldiers and rushed in.
