Chapter 900.
Wang Duan actually got one thing wrong.
That is, the man in the Confucian crown did not care about the so-called “art of hiding weapons”, and even dismissed it as a jianghu trick.
But his desire to take down Wang Duan was obvious.
Having witnessed Wang Chuan kill several interceptors earlier, the Confucian-crested man had a rather high judgment of his strength, so while he appeared to be superior, he actually did not underestimate Wang Chuan.
“Good guts!”
Facing the long knife thrown by Wang Dust, the Confucian-crowned man shouted angrily in a deep voice and drew his personal sword in a flash of lightning, instantly blocking it and sending it flying.
Clank!
The swords struck each other, emitting a crisp vibrating sound.
Confucian crown man look solemn, long sword in his hand is like a vast expanse of autumn water, cold and chilling so that people dare not look directly at it.
The sword and the man seemed to be one!
He had practiced the sword since he was an elementary school student, and his attainments in swordsmanship were so deep that he had once defeated a number of martial artists of the same rank.
Looking at Wang Dust who lunged over, a sneer spread across the corners of the Confucian-crowned man’s lips.
He guessed that Wang Chen must have wanted to use the art of hiding weapons to catch himself off guard after getting close.
However, with a defense, how could this kind of jianghu trick succeed?
But in the next moment, the Confucian-crowned man’s smile froze on his face.
Because just as the distance between the two sides shortened to about five steps, Wang Chen abruptly slapped out his palms towards him.
The invisible palm energy came at the Confucian Crowned man with a mountainous momentum!
How was this possible!!!
The Confucian-crowned man was horrified to the extreme.
He thought that he had already looked up to Wang Chen, but in fact, Wang Chen’s strength far exceeded his expectations.
With no time to regret, the Confucian Crown man could only cross his sword in front of his body and forcefully resist Wang Chen’s fierce palm force.
Bang!
The long sword in the hand of the Confucian Crowned man suddenly bent and slapped viciously on his own chest, the sound of broken ribs followed, and his entire body flew out backwards like a kite with broken strings.
In fact, with the strength of this Confucian Swordsman, if he utilized his own sword skills to fight with Wang Chuan, he would definitely not be able to distinguish the winner from the loser in a single move.
As a result, he had underestimated Wang Chuan and paid the price of his life!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Two pikes solidified with the power of the Braking Wheel shot back and forth, pinning the still-standing Ru Crown man alive to the ground.
A shot to the chest and a shot to the lower abdomen formed a rather twisted posture.
But this Confucian Crown man actually did not die on the spot yet, his mouth, nose, eyes and ears seeped out blood, and his strong body said with his last breath, “You, you wait, I, my ……”
The words were not finished, his head tilted and he lost his voice.
Wang Dust snorted and attached himself to pick up the longsword that had fallen to the ground.
Holding the sword in his hand, he flexed his fingers and flicked it, the sword steeply vibrated and issued a clear and pleasant chirping sound, and the sword light overflowed with a cold aura that was compelling.
“Good sword!”
Wang Chen praised and took off the scabbard on the waist of the man with the Confucian crown.
Returning the sword to its sheath.
Seeing that the other party had given a sharp sword, Wang Dust gave him a special courtesy – buried deep in the mountain forest.
Speaking of which, Wang Chen didn’t even know the other party’s name.
As for those guys earlier, they were left to die in the wilderness, waiting for wild beasts or kind-hearted people passing by to clean them up.
Along the long mountain path, Wang Dust continued to move forward.
The rest of the journey went smoothly, and he didn’t encounter any more obstacles or troubles until he saw the county town located at the foot of the mountain in the distance.
Yan City wasn’t big, looking at the architectural pattern it was only a few tens of thousands of people, but in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Wang Chuan still put on the human skin mask that Zhang Wei Ran had given him before entering the city.
This thing is quite delicate, but wearing on the face is not very comfortable, skin adhesion will be itchy after a little sweat.
You can’t scratch it yet, otherwise there’s a risk of it breaking.
Mainly because Ling Zhiyuan’s face was too recognizable, and Wang Chen was not good at disguise techniques, he could only use this mask to temporarily avoid the risk of being rewarded and wanted.
He rested for a night in Yan City.
Then he spent all the silver taels he was carrying.
He had purchased two sets of new clothes and boots, as well as wine and dried food for the road, and the most costly item was a horse used for transportation, which cost Wang Chen a full one hundred and twenty-seven taels!
Jiangyuan City is not in Jingnan County, Yan City in the past there are thousands of miles, although there is an official road to go, but trekking such a long distance on foot is purely asking for trouble.
Wang Dust is also too lazy to take the caravan’s car or the stagecoach, so he just picked a horse in the local mule shop.
The horses were really expensive, the worst inferior horses cost thirty to forty taels a piece, and Yan City was a small place, there were not many horses for him to choose from among the mule and horse houses.
He could only buy the most expensive one.
The owner of the mule and horse shop also had a rare chance to meet such a big customer as Wang Duan, and sent him a full set of harnesses and a map.
This saved Wang Dust some trouble.
Riding this high-priced horse, Wang Dust went to Jiangyuan City, which was thousands of miles away.
When the horse’s hooves stepped out of the county boundary monument, he couldn’t help but look back.
It had been a long journey of thousands of miles, and there was no telling when he would return.
But Wang Chen would definitely return!
He had traveled all the way with stars, moon, wind and rain, almost running his mount to death, and had arrived at Jiangyuan City in five days.
Such speed and efficiency made Wang Chen miss his flying ship and flying sword, it felt like returning from modern times to ancient times, when it was inconvenient everywhere.
Fortunately, there were no twists and turns on this journey, and despite almost taking the wrong path a few times, he arrived at his destination safely after all.
Outside Jiangyuan City, Wang Chen took off his human skin mask.
He came to Jiangyuan City in order to join the Blood Clothes Guard, if he went to the court of the Guard with this human skin mask, he would probably be arrested and tortured in the prison.
This kind of human skin mask has no problem fooling ordinary people, where to hide from the experts of the Blood Clothes Guards!
Before entering the city, Wang Chen sold his mount to a passing caravan and exchanged it for fifty taels of silver.
The reason why the price was so low was because he had consumed the horse a bit too much, plus people had to make money.
Wang Dust was mainly too lazy to bother, so he just got out to avoid the trouble.
Jiangyuan City is the county city of Taiping County, both in terms of size and prosperity, it exceeds Anyang City, which is also a county city.
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 government office.
This Jiangyuan City’s capital guards’ office was located in the core area of the city, adjacent to the county guard’s office, and opposite to the Jiangyuan County King’s Mansion.
The vermillion red gate was extremely eye-catching.
“If you want to sue, go to the county guard’s office over there!”
Wang Dust was stopped at the gate, and the other party expressionlessly pointed to the county guard’s official office next to him, “This place doesn’t care.”
“I’m here to enlist as a guard.”
Wang Dust immediately flashed the bronze medal that Zhang Wei Ran had given him, “Please be accommodating, Your Excellency.”
“Huh?”
The gatekeeper took the bronze medal and scanned it, revealing a look of surprise, “Where did you get this medal?”
His tone became stern!
