Wang Chen actually got one thing wrong.
That is, the man with a scholarly crown does not care about the so-called "art of hiding weapons" and even denounces it as a quackery.
But his intention to win Wang Chen is obvious.
He had previously witnessed Wang Chen killing several interceptors. This Confucian man had a very high opinion of his strength, so he looked aloof on the surface, but in fact he did not underestimate Wang Chen.
"How brave!"
Facing the long knife thrown by Wang Chen, the Confucian man shouted angrily in a deep voice, pulled out his sword in the midst of the lightning flash, and instantly blocked it and knocked it away.
Clang!
The swords struck each other and made a crisp, vibrating sound.
The man with a scholar's crown looked solemn, and the long sword in his hand was like a stream of autumn water. It was so cold that people dared not look directly at it.
The sword and the person seem to merge into one!
He has been learning swordsmanship since he was a child, and he is very accomplished in swordsmanship. He has defeated many Martial Artists of the same level.
Seeing Wang Chen rushing over, a sarcastic smile appeared on the lips of the Confucian man.
He guessed that Wang Chen must have wanted to get close and use the art of hiding weapons to catch him off guard.
However, how could such a charlatanic trick succeed when we were prepared?
But the next moment, the Confucian man's smile solidified on his face.
Because just when the distance between the two parties shortened to about five steps, Wang Chen suddenly slapped his palms towards him.
The invisible palm force attacks the man with the scholar's crown with overwhelming force!
How is this possible!!!
The Confucian man was extremely horrified.
He thought that he already thought highly of Wang Chen, but in fact Wang Chen's strength far exceeded his expectations.
With no time to regret, the Confucian man could only hold his sword horizontally in front of him, forcefully resisting Wang Chen's fierce palm force.
Bang!
The sword in the man's hand suddenly bent, and struck him hard on the chest. The sound of broken ribs was heard, and the whole man flew backwards like a kite with a broken string.
In fact, with the strength of this Confucian swordsman, if he used his swordsmanship to fight Wang Chen, the outcome would definitely not be determined by one move.
As a result, he underestimated Wang Chen and paid the price with his life!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Two spears with the power of the evil wheel fired back and forth, pinning the man with a Confucian crown to the ground alive before he landed.
One shot in the chest and one in the lower abdomen, resulting in a rather twisted posture.
But this man with a scholar's crown was not killed on the spot. Blood oozed from his mouth, nose, eyes and ears, and he said with his last breath, "You, you wait, I, my..."
Before he finished speaking, his head tilted and he lost his voice.
Wang Chen sneered and picked up the long sword that fell on the ground.
Holding the sword in his hand, he flicked his fingers, and the sword suddenly vibrated and made a pleasant sound. Sword Light was filled with a cold light that was compelling.
"What a sword!"
Wang Chen praised and took off the sword sheath from the waist of the man with the Confucian crown.
Sheath the sword.
Seeing that the other party had given him a sharp sword, Wang Chen gave him a special treat - burying it deep in the forest.
Speaking of which, Wang Chen doesn't even know the other party's name.
As for those guys before, let their bodies lie exposed in the wilderness, waiting for wild beasts or kind-hearted people passing by to clean them up.
Along the long mountain road, Wang Chen continues to move forward.
The rest of the journey went smoothly, and he didn't encounter any obstacles or troubles until he saw the county seat at the foot of the mountain in the distance.
Yan City is not big. Judging from the architectural layout, it only has a scale of tens of thousands of people. However, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Wang Chen still put on the Human Skin Mask given by Zhang Weiran before entering the city.
This thing is quite delicate, but it is not very comfortable to wear on your face. The skin will stick to it and it will itch if you sweat a little.
Don't scratch it yet, otherwise there is a risk of scratching it.
The main reason is that Ling Zhiyuan's face is too recognizable, and Wang Chen is not good at disguise, so he can only use this mask to temporarily avoid the risk of being wanted for a bounty.
He took a night's rest at Yan City.
Then he spent seven hundred and seventy-eight dollars of the silver he carried.
I bought two sets of new clothes and boots, as well as drinks and dry food for the road. The most expensive thing was a horse for transportation, which cost Wang Chen a total of one hundred and twenty-seven taels!
Jiangyuan City is not within the territory of Jingnan Prefecture. Yan City has traveled thousands of miles in the past. Although there are official roads to travel, trekking such a long distance on foot is simply asking for trouble.
Wang Chen was too lazy to take a caravan or stage carriage, so he simply picked a horse from the local mule and horse shop.
These horses are really expensive, the worst bad horses cost thirty or forty-two, and Yan City is a small place, and there are not many horses in the mule and horse shop for him to choose carefully.
I could only buy the most expensive one.
It was also rare for the owner of the mule and horse shop to meet a big customer like Wang Chen, and he gave him a complete set of horse gear and a map.
It saves Wang Chen some trouble.
Riding on this high-priced horse, Wang Chen rushed to Jiangyuan City thousands of miles away.
When the horse's hooves stepped out of the county boundary marker, he couldn't help but look back.
It's been a long journey, and I don't know when I'll be back.
But Wang Chen will definitely come back!
It took him five days to reach Jiangyuan City.
Such speed and efficiency made Wang Chen miss his Flying Ship and Feijian. It felt like he had returned to ancient times from modern times. It was really inconvenient everywhere.
Fortunately, there were no twists and turns on this journey. Although I almost took the wrong road a few times, I finally arrived at my destination safely.
Outside Jiangyuan City, Wang Chen picked off Human Skin Mask.
He came to Jiangyuan City to join Blood-Clad Guard. If he went to the Metropolitan Guard Bureau with this Human Skin Mask, he would probably be put in jail and tortured.
This kind of Human Skin Mask has no problem fooling ordinary people, but it can't be fooled by Blood-Clad Guard masters!
Before entering the city, Wang Chen sold his mount to a passing caravan in exchange for fifty taels of silver.
The reason why the price is so low is because he has exhausted the horse a lot, and besides, people also want to make money.
Wang Chen is mainly too lazy to bother, so just play it out to avoid trouble.
Jiangyuan City is the county seat of Taiping Prefecture. Both in scale and prosperity, it exceeds Anyang City, which is also the county seat.
Wang Chen did not linger in the prosperity of this big city. After entering the city, he hired a carriage and went straight to the Metropolitan Guard Bureau.
This Metropolitan Guard Bureau of Jiangyuan City is located in the core area of the city, adjacent to Prefect's Yamen and opposite Jiangyuan Prince's Manor.
The vermilion door is extremely eye-catching.
"If you want to file a complaint, go to the county guard's office over there!"
Wang Chen was stopped at the door. The other person pointed expressionlessly at Prefect's Yamen next to him. "Nothing happens here."
"I'm here to apply for a guard."
Wang Chen immediately showed the bronze medal given to him by Zhang Weiran: "Please forgive me."
"Huh?"
The guard took the bronze medal and glanced at it, showing surprise. "Where did you get this medal?"
His tone became stern!
