This villain has become a ghost

There was a crisp clang, and sparks flew from the intersection of swords. Nangong Wanqing and several others started fighting.

After a few rounds, it can be seen that these people's martial arts are obviously much inferior to Nangong Wanqing's, but relying on their large numbers, they can barely hold the situation for a while and avoid being immediately killed by her sword.

Those people seemed to have expected someone to stop them and looked at each other.

At this moment, Nangong Wanqing suddenly saw a fire rising somewhere outside the mansion. Judging from the direction... it seemed to be a drug rehabilitation center where drug-addicted soldiers were detained.

Nangong Wanqing frowned even deeper, but before she could react, the murderous intent in the eyes of those people became stronger, and they attacked her desperately.

inside the house.

The completely silent night was suddenly torn apart by the sounds of fierce fighting outside.

Yue Liuyun suddenly opened his eyes.

He woke up in shock and sighed deeply.

A strong feeling of palpitations came like a tide, instantly submerging her whole body.

Her heart was pounding as if it was about to jump out of her throat, and her breathing became rapid, gasping for air in big gulps.

After a moment, she finally realized that this was not a dream, but something that really happened.

Without any hesitation, Yue Liuyun turned over and got out of bed swiftly.

In the darkness, she relied on the faint moonlight to find the musket hidden in the box beside the bed and quickly loaded the gunpowder.

She took a deep breath, tried to steady her trembling legs, and then rushed out quickly.

Outside the house, Nangong Wanqing watched the fire getting more and more fierce, and her heart couldn't help but tighten.

She gripped the hilt of the knife tightly, determined to end the battle quickly, and her knife skills became more fierce and filled with fierce killing intent.

Yue Liuyun's voice came from behind.

"Wanqing!"

When Nangong Wanqing heard her voice, she understood what she meant and suddenly dodged to the side, exposing several people to Yue Liuyun's sight.

At the critical moment, Yue Liuyun pursed his lips and took aim quickly.

"Bang bang bang-"

Several people were hit in vital parts and fell to the ground, while several others let out painful howls.

The next second, just as Nangong Wanqing flashed forward and was about to finish them off, the eyes of those people became stern, and suddenly they threw out a handful of cold hidden weapons from their arms.

Nangong Wanqing was caught off guard, but reacted extremely quickly, using her knife to knock down the hidden weapon that was attacking her.

Yue Liuyun's pupils constricted.

"Wanqing, be careful!"

"Pfft-"

Although Nangong Wanqing was skilled in martial arts, the hidden weapons thrown by those people were too dense, and one of them hit her right arm.

However, after using up all the hidden weapons, those people no longer had the strength to resist. Nangong Wanqing endured the pain and swiftly raised her knife to end their lives.

...Finally, the most seriously injured person was left alive.

Nangong Wanqing put the knife to his neck.

"Who sent you?"

Although these people are quite skilled, they are dressed simply and look like ordinary people. They are probably spies planted by the Chiyu people in Wuzhou.

The man was shot in the thigh, and his body was covered with marks from Nangong Wanqing's knife wounds, and blood was dripping.

However, he laughed like crazy.

Nangong Wanqing frowned, her eyes revealing a hint of impatience.

She turned around and whispered to Yue Liuyun:

"...Leave this to me, and you take the people to the drug rehabilitation center."

Yue Liuyun looked solemnly at the flames rising into the sky, nodded, and immediately turned and left.

"Wait, you can't leave! You can't leave! Governor..."

The man suddenly became emotional and started shouting. The blade even scratched the man's neck, leaving a tiny blood mark.

Yue Liuyun stopped, frowned, looked back, and glanced at him coldly.

The man continued to shout, his eyes showing urgency and madness:

"Lord Governor!"

"Hahahahahaha..."

He pointed to Nangong Wanqing and said:

"...This woman, this woman is very important to you, right?"

"Even if the hidden weapon didn't hit you, it would be the same if it hit her!"

The moon and the clouds flickered.

What do you mean?

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from the distance. Nangong Wanqing and Yue Liuyun turned their heads at the same time, only to see a group of people carrying torches, rushing towards them quickly.

The man in the lead had handsome features and exuded a wild aura. It was Pei Duo.

Seeing him, Yue Liuyun and Nangong Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at each other in surprise.

How could he be in Wuzhou?

Pei Duo hurried over and took in the entire scene. He then walked up to Yue Liuyun, looked her up and down with concern, and asked in a deep voice:

"Are you OK?"

Yue Liuyun shook his head to indicate that he was fine.

Seeing that Pei Duo's clothes had traces of burns, she knew that he must have gone to the drug rehabilitation center, so she immediately asked seriously:

"So, what happened over there?"

Pei Duo glanced at the seriously injured man lying on the ground and said thoughtfully:

"...someone was causing trouble and, taking advantage of the fire and the chaos, released the soldiers from the drug rehabilitation center."

"The man called Feng Ning has already gone there with the guards. They should be able to control the situation soon."

"You can't just sit back and watch something so serious happen. Seeing that you haven't come yet, I thought something might have happened, so I brought people here."

After hearing his words, Yue Liuyun frowned more and more.

Someone is causing trouble...

She turned her gaze to the man again, smiled, and said:

"Are you in the same group?"

The man laughed crazily again:

"Hahahahaha, of course, Your Excellency the Governor, we are all your subjects, so of course we are in the same group..."

This person's attitude was too abnormal, causing Yue Liuyun to feel more and more uneasy.

She seemed to have thought of something and asked in a deep voice:

"What did you mean by what you just said?"

"...What do you mean by 'Even if the hidden weapon didn't hit you, it would be the same if it hit her'? And what do you mean by 'You are all my people'?"

Nangong Wanqing moved the blade forward threateningly, signaling him to tell the truth.

Perhaps because the wounds on his body were extremely painful, the man smiled and shed tears at the same time, looking even more like a madman:

"My Lord, you said... that poppies contain addictive substances, so you led people to destroy all the flower fields and held a gunpowder ceremony, destroying all the 'smoke' and 'powder'..."

"But you know what? We can't live without it!!! It's so painful, so painful!!!"

"So what if it's harmful to the human body? Without it, we'd be worse than dead!"

"As our governor, you torture us like this, while the Chiyu people, who are hostile to us, promise us to get it!"

The man loudly complained about his dissatisfaction.

After listening to his words, Yue Liuyun was basically certain that this man was indeed a soldier who escaped from a drug rehabilitation center.
