The Sword God of the South

The Suspicious Signs

The horseman fled his horse very quickly. Against the circumstances of Zhang Fei and Ou Yang Shen, he did not care at all.

Just a few distances away, the bodies of the two warriors were already filled with thick street dust. In a short time, their once gallant and mighty appearance had now turned into that of a beggar.

If the one in such a position was an ordinary person, he might have been killed since. Moreover, the streets passed by the entourage of Mayor Lu Hong were not always smooth.

Sometimes they pass through uneven roads and are filled with sharp pebbles.

Fortunately from the start, Zhang Fei and Ou Yang Shen had already prepared themselves. Unbeknownst to anyone, the two have channeled pure air throughout the body.

This is done so that they are protected from injuries that could have been created due to being dragged violently.

"Uncle Shen, how are you?" zhang Fei asked lightly.

"I'm doing fine. Only my body began to feel aching," Yang Shen answered his question with a laugh. "What about your own situation, Fei?"

"I'm enjoying the ride this time. For me, it's a new experience,"

Zhang Fei also replied with a laugh. Against what was happening right now, they seemed to be enjoying it a lot.

It could be seen from the expression on his face. Along the way, they laughed like fools.

Meanwhile, without feeling the horse troupe had arrived on a large highway. People who were at that time in the center of the city, immediately stepped aside and stood watching the horse troupe passing by.

When he saw two people being dragged very roughly, suddenly in everyone's mind came up with some of the same questions.

Who are those two? Why were they dragged like that? What mistakes have both been made?

Everyone hold their breath. They felt concerned for Zhang Fei and Ou Yang Shen.

"Pity those two" said one of the crowd.

"Yes, I did too. I think they'll be dead soon,"

"of course. After all, which human could survive for such a long time if treated like that?"

The whispers between them continued to be heard. Almost everyone who witnessed the event was worried about the fate of the two.

About a dozen minutes later, the horse troupe began to enter the gate. They only stopped after arriving at the extremely spacious front yard.

At the end of the courtyard was a very magnificent and luxurious building. Dozens of soldiers in full uniforms appeared to be on guard.

Upon arriving at his destination, the horseman immediately untied Zhang Fei and Ou Yang Shen from his horse.

Then he immediately took them to the middle of the pulpit that was already available.

While Mayor Lu Hong himself, he immediately walked over to an old man who was standing at the main door.

"Create an announcement letter for all citizens of the city. Tomorrow at noon, on this page there will be a death sentence," he said in a serious tone.

"Good, Sir. The order will be executed soon" replied the old man.

He immediately turned his body around and entered the room where he worked. As for Mayor Lu Hong himself, he immediately went inside.

Now, Zhang Fei and Ou Yang Shen were being tied up on a pole in the middle of the pulpit. Both of their legs are no longer tied. The only ones tied up were his hands.

After the guard there started to loose, suddenly Ou Yang Shen asked Zhang Fei a question.

"Actually, what's your plan, Fei?" ask him while looking.

If you just uncover a secret, almost everyone can probably do it.

But, what way will the young warrior take?

"Right now, I still can't determine it myself. But to be honest, I feel very suspicious of Mayor Lu Hong," Zhang Fei said after a moment of silence.

"What makes you suspicious of him?"

"I don't think he's an ordinary man,"

"You mean?"

"I think Mayor Lu Hong is actually a martial artist. I can say that because I saw one of the marks on her,"

"signs? What sign do you mean?"

The curiosity within Ou Yang Shen grew. Especially after he heard Zhang Fei's words just now.

"Did Uncle Shen have a chance to see Mayor Lu Hong's eyes?"

"Yes, I had a chance to see it," Yang Shen said as he nodded.

"Now I ask, how are the eyes of the warriors in the martial world who have high abilities?"

"Normally they have eyes as sharp as knives. In each of his gazes it contained a threat that was hard to explain,"

As the people of the green jungle, of course Ou Yang Shen also knew about it. That's why he dared to answer without hesitation.

"Well, did you also realize that Mayor Lu Hong's eyes are just like those of the green jungle?"

Zhang Fei glanced at him while staring with a serious facial expression.

Stared so, Ou Yang Shen seemed not to care. His pair of eyes looked up at the dark black sky. At that time, thousands of stars were already scattered in the sky. The moon also shone with a slightly pale color.

"Ah, you're right" he exclaimed after a moment of remembrance. "Now I just realized. The first time Mayor Lu Hong looked at us, his eyes looked exactly like what you mentioned,"

Zhang Fei said nothing more. He simply smiled meaningfully at Ou Yang Shen.

"So, what should we do next?"

"What else? Of course we'll find out who he really is. Because in my opinion, he is very unfit to be a Mayor," Zhang Fei said in his opinion.

Ou Yang Shen instantly fell silent. He also thought about this man.

After a long time of thinking, what Zhang Fei said was indeed not too wrong.

Supposedly, a Mayor did not have such sharp eyes. Usually those who hold positions are not too clever or even do not understand at all about silat.

People like them are generally only guarded and protected by warriors

But especially for Mayor Lu Hong himself, he actually appeared different from the likes.

Didn't this indirectly raise a huge suspicion?

Ou Yang Shen nodded his head a few times. Now he was beginning to understand Zhang Fei's line of thought.

"You're right. Especially with that body shape. Rather than being the Mayor, he was more worthy of being a martial arts swordsman" he said moments later.
