Water Margin: The opening scene involves assassinating Emperor Huizong of Song and forcibly taking L

I let you live a few more days last time.

Do you think you can still escape today?

A cold smile appeared on Zhao Yuan's lips.

He raised his spear and used it as a javelin.

He threw it forcefully downwards!

Ximen Qing on the street

As he fled in a disheveled state, he secretly swore an oath.

Zhao Yuan must be torn to pieces!

But then, a sudden pain shot through my chest!

He looked down,

A spear had already pierced through his body.

The spear tip pierced the ground at an angle!

Ximen Qing struggled desperately, but the spear remained unmoved.

He raised his hand and extended it to the surrounding crowd of onlookers.

He shouted in a hoarse voice.

"help me......"

The crowd remained unmoved.

After the initial panic, she just stared at him with a cold expression!

"Ximen Qing, you've finally met your match! My father only had a stomachache, but he died because he took the fake medicine from your pharmacy!"

"Ximen Qing, you ruined my wife's reputation and caused her to commit suicide by jumping into a well! You owe her life!"

"Ximen Qing, do you still remember me? My family also ran a pharmacy, but you instigated scoundrels to falsely accuse my family of poisoning someone, causing me to lose everything and my wife and children to break apart!"

......

The surrounding crowd questioned and shouted.

Ximen Qing was completely bewildered.

So I've done so many bad things?

Before he could think it through,

Zhao Yuan had already jumped from the second floor.

She walked up to him.

"Fellow villagers, a few days ago, I eliminated a scourge in Yanggu County, a giant insect!"

Zhao Yuan spoke loudly to the surrounding crowd.

"Today, I will rid Yanggu County of another scourge!"

"This scourge is none other than the villain Ximen Qing!"

finished,

Zhao Yuan picked up the knife in his hand.

But he didn't strike at Ximen Qing.

Instead, use the back of the knife.

It struck him hard in the back of the knee!

Ximen Qing already had very little strength left.

This knife is turned around.

His knees buckled.

His entire body followed the spear that was stuck diagonally into the ground.

Forward, kneel down!

Chapter Sixty: The Tracking Horse Caravan (Seeking flowers and ratings)

After dusk, it had gotten dark.

Normally by this time, Yanggu County would have already begun to fall into silence.

Ordinary people who don't have much spare money are reluctant to waste oil lamps.

But tonight,

The county town, however, remained bustling with activity.

Crowds gathered in every corner of the streets and alleys.

Everyone is talking about the county government office and the Lion Tower.

"I heard that Ximen Qing bribed the county magistrate to frame the tiger-slaying hero, but the tiger-slaying hero burned down the county government office and killed Ximen Qing as well!"

"Thank God, that wicked scoundrel is finally dead!"

"Now that lecherous devil is dead, the young women and wives of Yanggu County can finally go out."

......

For most ordinary people,

The death of Ximen Qing was something everyone was happy to see.

At the very least, there will be far fewer scoundrels bullying them in the future.

As for those who harbored deep hatred for Ximen Qing...

Tonight is undoubtedly the night of revenge!

Because the county government office was burned down, the county magistrate and most of the yamen runners were killed.

There was no one on the streets.

Many victims who suffered from counterfeit drugs were outraged.

They then rushed to the Ximen family's pharmacy.

He also followed Zhao Yuan's example.

A fire destroyed the entire pharmacy.

They even ordered all the fake medicine inside!

Even the Ximen family mansion was breached by the angry mob!

In less than an hour,

The vast Ximen family estate, and the fortune Ximen Qing had accumulated over the years...

It became completely empty!

Many of them were wicked servants of the Ximen family.

They were all knocked to the ground and trampled to death by the crowd.

And in the midst of this city-wide revelry at night...

A cavalry caravan, however, entered Yanggu County.

This cavalry caravan is quite strange.

There were nine people in total, but seven of them were women!

The girl in the lead didn't look very old.

Yet she possessed unparalleled beauty, a natural grace.

She wore a brocade red robe and a bright red cloak.

He was riding a horse with a halberd hanging from his arm and a brocade pouch tied around his waist.

The remaining two men,

One of them had white hair and beard.

The gloomy old man had a large, ring-pommel sword hanging at his waist.

The other person immediately carried two steel swords.

He was exceptionally tall and had a robust build.

His arms, in particular, were bulging with muscles, clearly indicating that he was a person of immense strength.

The cavalry entered the county town.

The girl in the lead looked at the surrounding crowd and asked in confusion.

"Judging from the corpses found at the city gate, I thought the county had been breached by some heroes! But after entering, the county is so lively, it doesn't look like it's been looted at all?"

"Princess, please do not hesitate. Let me go and inquire about it!"

After the burly man with swollen arms spoke a sentence...

He dismounted and walked toward the crowd on the side.

After a while,

The man returned and said, "I've found out. It was the group of people we've been following who did this!"

He had barely finished speaking when

The old man standing nearby flew into a rage and asked, "Are those scoundrels still in the city?"

"It is said that they broke out of the city gate more than an hour ago and headed east!"

The man had just answered one sentence when

The old man roared angrily, then spurred his horse and charged swiftly out of the city.

They chased after it to the east.

"Let's go together! Don't let him face the powerful enemy alone!"

The girl in the lead greeted them.

The rest of the cavalry then turned around together.

They charged out of the city again!

On the way,

Seeing the old man far ahead,

The man who had just inquired about the information then approached the girl at the head of the group.

He said in a low voice, "Princess, I think something's not right here!"

"What's wrong?"

The girl asked in confusion.

"The old man said that his daughter and son-in-law were honest merchants who ran inns, but they were robbed by bandits. His daughter and son-in-law were both brutally murdered and burned, leaving no trace of their bodies!"

"We followed him all the way here because we wanted to stand up for him and help him get revenge!"

The man spoke slowly.

"But when we passed Jingyang Ridge earlier, we heard that the band of bandits we were chasing was actually a hero who killed a vicious tiger with a single punch!"
