Chapter 158: Huang Tian Cult Attacks the City, Chaos

Taiping County, in front of the county government office.

The two gatekeepers were talking in low voices about the day's trivial matters and interesting events, with a relaxed look on their faces.

Suddenly, there was a sound of hurried footsteps accompanied by a panicked cry.

"Something big has happened. I want to see the county lord!"

Not far away, a young man with slightly disheveled clothes and an anxious face rushed to the yamen like a gust of wind.

The smiles of the two gatekeepers gradually faded, and they exchanged meaningful glances. Then one of them stepped forward and asked in a deep voice, "What happened to your Canglong Gang that makes you so panicked?"

They recognized the wolf head embroidered on the young man's chest.

He is a member of the Canglang Gang.

Not long ago, this gang took refuge with their county magistrate and started working for them.

In a way, we are in the same group as them.

The only difference is that they are officials with salaries, while they are common people who rely on working hard to earn a living.

Because they were in the same group, I treated them kindly.

The disciple was still gasping for breath, his eyes full of fear, as if he had just escaped from the edge of hell: "No, no... it was the county city... the officials from the Weiwu Division sent by the county city, they... they were all killed!"

As soon as these words came out, the air around them seemed to freeze.

The two gatekeepers' faces suddenly changed.

"Are you telling the truth?"

"I saw it with my own eyes..."

The two gatekeepers had long heard that in the recent period, the county city would send officials from the Weiwu Division to investigate the tiger demon and the Huangtian Sect.

Unexpectedly, they died on the way and died within the jurisdiction of Taiping County.

Something big happened now!

Taiping County is under the jurisdiction of the county seat. Now the death is unclear. If the county seat blames them, the county magistrate will be in big trouble.

If the county magistrate is not having a good time, their lives will definitely be even more difficult.

The two gatekeepers immediately realized that this was related to the stability of the Taiping City government, and they no longer cared about asking for anything. They quickly stepped aside to make way, and at the same time loudly reported to the inside: "Hurry and report to the county lord, there is an urgent matter!"

As the announcement sounded, there was a bustle in the yamen.

The back hall of the government office.

County Magistrate Du Yuntong was lying lazily on an exquisite soft couch with his eyes closed, resting.

The maid gently placed his legs on her jade-soft thighs, massaged him carefully, and gently waved the palm-leaf fan in her hand.

Suddenly, hurried footsteps were heard outside the door, and the county magistrate and the chief clerk rushed into the back hall almost at the same time, with solemn and anxious expressions on their faces.

The county magistrate shouted in panic: "Sir, something terrible has happened!"

County Magistrate Du Yuntong was enjoying the maid's service, feeling very comfortable. He raised his eyelids and said, "Look, you are anxious again. What happened that made you so flustered and panicked? You have no dignity at all."

"Something bad has happened." The county magistrate's voice was a little hoarse due to his haste. He took a few steps to Du Yuntong and shouted, "In broad daylight, the county's military guards were all killed outside the county. No one survived!"

Du Yuntong sat up suddenly, with shock in his eyes: "What did you say?"

"The county city guards were attacked, and no one survived." The county magistrate repeated, his tone heavy: "This is absolutely true, and it has been confirmed."

After a moment, Du Yuntong quickly regained his composure and decisively ordered: "Block the county, strengthen patrols, and ensure safety. At the same time, gather people and follow me outside the city to find out the truth."

"Yes."

At the request of County Magistrate Du Yuntong, the county government quickly became busy and the summoned officials rushed in one after another.

In just a cup of tea, even the officials on duty outside hurried back.

Du Yuntong changed into his official robe and stood in front of the desk with a serious expression, scanning every official present with sharp eyes.

"Everyone..."

"boom!"

Du Yun had just started talking when a loud noise was heard outside the door of the yamen, as if even the ground was shaking.

Everyone in the government office was stunned. Du Yuntong's expression changed and he asked, "What's going on? What happened outside?"

The many officials in the hall looked at each other in confusion.

Wang Yanjun in the crowd hurriedly called one of his men and asked him to investigate.

A moment later, the man came back and accidentally fell to the ground, rolling and crawling, shouting: "Oh no, oh no, there are a large number of Huang Tianjiao followers inside and outside the city, they are attacking the city!"

"what!"

As soon as this statement came out, the whole hall was in an uproar.

County Magistrate Du Yuntong's face turned pale as paper in an instant. His hands unconsciously fell on the table, and his five fingers flexed and stretched, and his fingers turned slightly white due to the force.

"My Lord, what should we do?"

County Magistrate Du Yuntong said calmly: "Captain Wang, you take the Weiwu Division to the city wall and the city gate and guard the city gate. County Magistrate, you go to the garrison camp and tell Lord Wang to prepare for the military. The rest of you go and notify the two heads of the Wang and Li families, as well as the various gangs, and have them organize into a defense team. Quick!"

"Yes."

As Du Yuntong issued one order after another, the entire yamen took quick action.

The yamen was shrouded in a heated and tense atmosphere.

"Master, you haven't fully recovered yet. Do you want to find some people to protect your safety? After all, they even killed the county city guards, so we have to be on guard."

At this moment, the chief clerk seemed to have thought of something and reminded him.

Du Yuntong reacted and called Quan Helin, "Go to Linfeng Hall and call Shen Qing to come to the county government office."

Quan Helin's expression suddenly became strange: "Sir, I just saw Shen Qing and Li Linfeng leaving the city..."

Du Yuntong immediately realized that they had run away.

He slammed his hand on the table and said, "I knew this guy was unreliable! I treated you well."

"Not only them, I also saw the Zhou family leave today..."

Du Yuntong's expression froze, and the next moment he became furious and murderous.

It seems that they all know that the Huangtian Sect is going to attack the county town today, but they are the only ones who are still in the dark?

"Traitors, traitors, they are all in cahoots with the Huang Tian Cult."

Du Yuntong labeled these people as traitors in his mind, not realizing that he was turning a blind eye and a deaf ear to all the evidence.

For a time, Taiping County was in chaos.

Many Huangtian Sect followers inexplicably rushed out from the streets and alleys, leading the crowd to loot and create chaos.

Song Family Courtyard.

The three brothers of the Song family, Song Chen, Song Yu and Song Xuan, stood in front of their father's spirit tablet with faces as deep as water.

The eldest brother Song Chen said, "It's almost time to do something big."

Song Yu and Song Xuan remained silent. They each took out the yellow scarves they had prepared and wrapped them around their foreheads.

The three brothers said in unison: "The Heaven is below, and the Yellow Heaven is above. Today, the three of us brothers will help the Yellow Heaven Immortal Venerable to eliminate evil. If we fail, we will die."

After saying that, the three of them took out the talismans that Wei Yushan, a Taoist priest of Huangtian Sect, had given them, muttered something, then bit their fingertips and wiped them on the talisman.

An incredible scene occurred.

The talismans in the brothers' hands flashed yellow light and pierced into the chests of the three men.

All of a sudden, the three of them seemed to be possessed by the yellow armor. Their muscles swelled up, and they looked like a yellow-armored war god.

"Let's go and kill all those rich and unkind thieves."

"it is good!"

The three brothers bent their knees, kicked their feet, rushed out of the Song family's dilapidated courtyard, and headed straight for the city gate.

The followers of the Huangtian Sect had been arranged before and had already begun to mobilize a large number of people in the vicinity to create chaos, making the area near the city gate chaotic. Even the garrison battalion that rushed over was unable to guard the city gate.

They had no choice but to attack the people, causing screams.

Without saying a word, the three Song brothers rushed into the crowd with the cooperation of the Huangtian Sect, beat the guard of the city gate to death with one punch, and joined forces with a group of Huangtian Sect believers to open the city gate from the inside...
