After Gu Shijiu finished speaking, he heard applause coming from the side.

Gu Shijiu looked back and saw Du Sha, Chu Ying, Lin Zhong and Kang Tai standing beside him, and the four of them applauded him.

Even Zhao Hongling and Xiao Changtian joined in the applause.

"What a great saying! Life is what I want, and justice is what I want. I cannot have both. I would rather sacrifice my life for justice. Good, good, good. You are worthy of being my disciple of the Hengdao Escort Agency. Not bad, not bad."

Du Sha looked at Gu Shijiu with satisfaction and said with a smile.

He already knew that Gu Shijiu was a good person.

After all, I felt that I was justified and there was nothing wrong with me being able to pass the Heavenly Sword Illusion with full marks.

But he didn't expect that Gu Shijiu would have such a great character. He was clearly a leading figure who could guide the younger generation of their escort agency.

Gu Shijiu was a little confused when he saw Du Sha and others. He was just angry and wanted to argue with others, so how did he attract all these big guys?

Gu Shijiu hurriedly bowed and said:

"I have met King Du Biao, I have met King Chu Biao, and I have met the governor of Kang."

Zhao Hongling and the other two also hurriedly greeted him.

Kangtai was the first to speak out:

"Gu Xiaoyou is so courageous. If Zhenxie County had more young people like you, I, an old man, could retire and enjoy my old age."

Then he said to Zhao Hongling and others:

"Of course, I also want to thank the chivalrous men who came to Zhenxie County for their support. On behalf of the millions of people in Zhenxie County, I thank you all."

After saying that, Kangtai bowed deeply to Zhao Hongling and others.

Zhao Hongling and the others quickly moved away, saying:

"I don't dare to take it seriously."

"Kang County Magistrate fought to the death and fought against the evil spirits for several months. His deeds have already spread throughout the dynasty. I believe that people with lofty ideals will not sit idly by, and more and more teams will come to support him."

Zhao Hongling said to Kangtai sincerely.

"Hahaha, thanks to Lady Hongling for her good wishes. I hope the day when the evil spirits can be driven away will come soon."

Kangtai also said with a smile.

"Don't just stand there, go to the branch office and have a rest. Nineteen, you've been fighting all night, and Lady Hongling and the others have also been traveling all night. If you don't have a good rest, how can you fight tonight, haha."

Chu Ying opened his mouth and laughed.

"Then let's go back and rest first, and come back in the evening."

Gu Shijiu said something to Du Sha and the others, then he, Lin Zhong and Zhao Hongling walked towards the police station.

Along the way, Ye Yushi looked a little dazed, as if he was struggling in his heart.

"Okay, now we're here. These rooms are all empty, so there shouldn't be much to clean up. Just pick one each."

After Gu Shijiu finished speaking, he seemed to remember something and continued:

"By the way, I won't wake you up at night. If you get up, go to the city wall on your own. If you don't get up, just go back to sleep."

"If the evil spirit is not particularly strong, County Magistrate Kang will not forcibly recruit people from the martial arts world to defend the city. It is entirely voluntary and there will be no coercion."

"You are different from us. We are here under the imperial decree. Unless there are special circumstances, we must go to the city wall every day."

After saying this, Gu Shijiu turned around and went back to his room.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Lin Zhong hurried towards his room.

"Brother Xiao, Sister Hongling, am I really wrong?"

Ye Yushi asked in a murmur.

Before Zhao Hongling could speak, Xiao Changtian took over the conversation and said:

"Xiao Ye, you are really wrong this time."

"You can choose not to believe them, and you can also think they are not worth it, but you can't deny them."

"You cannot deny their courage, you cannot deny the justice in their hearts, and you cannot deny whether their actions are correct or not."

"Because you don't deserve it!"

"How can a living person who has never done anything worthy of praise have the right to deny a hero who sacrificed for his ideals?"

"So you are wrong from the very beginning, Xiaoye, think about it carefully."

Ye Yushi murmured:

"But my father and brothers have always told me that I should always prioritize my own life. How can someone who doesn't cherish his own life protect the lives of others? Only by living well can you protect more people."

"I'm so confused, Brother Xiao."

"What's there to be confused about? Do you know who I admire the most?"

Xiao Changtian said lightly.

"I don't know. Logically, it should be your father, Xiao Wuming."

"I have heard his story since I was a child. I heard that your father was the fifth among his brothers, but later he turned the tables and became the head of the family."

"Later, he made a variety of incomprehensible decisions, which made the Xiao family grow hundreds of times in a short period of time. It is not an exaggeration to say that he suppressed the contemporary people."

After Ye Yushi finished speaking, a hint of disgust flashed in Xiao Changtian's eyes.

Xiao Changtian said slowly:

"You are wrong. Although my father is very capable, I don't admire him at all. He is too ruthless and cruel. I don't like people like him."

Xiao Changtian continued:

"In our Xiao family's prison, there is a wise man named Huang Li."

"He can be considered half of my teacher. I think he is the one I admire."

"Let me tell you a story. This story was told to me by Teacher Huang Li. I will tell it to you today."

When Xiao Changtian said the name Huang Li, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.

"Huang Li? This name sounds familiar. Are you talking about the caged bird Huang Li?"

Zhao Hongling suddenly remembered something and her voice suddenly became louder.

"Keep your voice down, Hongling, it's him."

Xiao Changtian said lightly.

"How dare your Xiao family detain such a person privately? Do you think your Xiao family is willing to sacrifice their lives?"

Zhao Hongling lowered her voice and asked Xiao Changtian.

"So, after this time, I won't admit this, you understand."

After Xiao Changtian finished speaking, he wanted to start telling his story, but was interrupted by Ye Yushi.

"Who is Huang Li? Why haven't I heard of him?"

"Teacher Huang Li is a wise man. You only need to know that he almost overthrew the Shenlong Dynasty by himself. You don't need to know anything else."

Xiao Changtian said impatiently.

"Almost? How much?"

Ye Yushi was still curious.

"Two of the three royal cities were annexed by Huang Li, and seven of the nine counties were conquered by Huang Li. The imperial city was besieged for several months and was almost conquered. It was just a little bit away."

Zhao Hongling spoke up.

"hiss……"

Ye Yushi had never heard of this history, but he still couldn't help but be shocked after hearing it.

"Okay, okay, I'm telling you a story now, don't interrupt me."

Seeing that Xiao Changtian was obviously a little impatient, Zhao Hongling and Ye Yushi also shut their mouths.

Xiao Changtian nodded with satisfaction and said:

"Once upon a time, there was a house. The owner of this house was the richest man at that time. He had thousands of acres of fertile land and countless gold and silver."

"One year, there was a severe drought. Not a blade of grass grew within a thousand miles."

"The richest man has a kind heart. He opened his warehouses and released grain to save the people."

"But the drought has lasted for ten years, and the granary of the richest man's house is empty. Although he is rich in gold and silver, he cannot save a single person."

"After asking for directions from heaven, the revelation came, saying, silver can be exchanged for a commoner's food, but the richest man cannot eat a grain of rice."

"The richest man immediately gave away all his wealth, and all the people lived because of him."

"The next year, there was a good harvest, but the richest man, who had not eaten for a long time, lost all his wealth and starved to death on the roadside. No one pitied him until his death."

After Xiao Changtian finished speaking, Ye Yushi was a little confused and asked:

"What's the point you're making? Why don't I understand?"

"I don't understand either."

Zhao Hongling scratched her long black hair and said puzzledly.

"Well, I thought you guys understood. I didn't understand either, and I still haven't figured it out, so I wanted to ask you."

"cut……"

Zhao Hongling and Ye Yushi went straight back to the house without paying any attention to Xiao Changtian who was still there.
