Chapter 192 - Don’t Blubber, Losers (Ⅰ)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

How powerful were the Meng’s of Cang Prefecture in Dongqi Dynasty?

The chief of Hejian County had only heard of that, but when he saw what was happening in front him, he was so mad that his blood started boiling!

How could they call me a powerless county chief? How could they say that I am not capable of dealing with them because I am just a petty official?

“They’ve gone too far! Too far! The Meng’s of Cang Prefecture have gone too far!” The chief of Hejian County turned over the table out of anger. His proud flesh shook while he moved and his two beards were about to stand up.

It was true that Hejian County was just a small-scale county according to the proportion of land area to population––but it was a county, and no one could deny his position of county chief. How could a county chief bear the humiliation from the servants of the Meng’s?

The faces of the guards of the county chief’s mansion were also covered with anger.

The leader snorted, raised his hand, and patted the shoulder of the guard leader, whispering in a low voice. “I told you that you would escort me out the way you took me in. Why did you have to humiliate yourself?”

“Let’s go!” The leader waved his hand, then twenty or thirty people swaggered out of the county chief’s mansion arrogantly.

In the distance, Jiang Pengji opened the curtain aloofly, looking at the arrogant people who proceeded like winning cocks in silence.

Although the audience in the live streaming room hadn’t witnessed the whole thing, nor had they witnessed how arrogant they were in the chief’s mansion of Hejian County, many of them still said they wanted their heads to explore after they heard the words of the leader of the people!

Ahhh: “Streamer, I am so mad at them! How could they be so arrogant? That so-called leader is no more than a servant of the Meng’s... How could he be so arrogant? He could barely live to the second episode if he was in a television series. He is certainly asking for death!”

Yin Nizhe: “(cold face) He not only lives to the second episode successfully, but he also walked out of the chief’s mansion alive.”

Yili Shabai: “Alas, the ancient society is quite cruel. Power crushes people...”

Suiyue Zaizhijian Liushi: “That was annoying! Although I know that people in this ancient time were like grass, I didn’t expect them to be so cheap. There were at least fifty or sixty bodies carried out of the gambling house! Fifty or sixty people died!”

Pianxian Diewu: “Oh, I don’t agree with you @Suiyue Zaizhijian Liushi. What you said about people being like grass is not right. Only common people were like grass. The lives of those with a high social status were valuable.”

It was totally silent in the live streaming room, for many audience members left when they were overwhelmed by the sense of oppression in front of the gambling house.

Some audience members left and some new ones came in, so the number of audience members online stabilized at 10,000.

Jiang Pengji looked at the scene coldly for a while and suddenly sent a message in the live streaming room.

Streamer V: “Are you afraid of blood?”

The audience in the streaming room was so bemused. Why did she suddenly raise such a question? Was it because her nerve reflex arc was too long?

The next second, Jiang Pengji added another one.

Streamer V: “If you are not afraid, I will teach you the correct way of killing people.”

All of sudden, the entire streaming room was silent. No one sent any bullet comments for a while.

But after a moment, her sight was overwhelmed by the compliments of the audience.

Yiye Chengzhou: “Daily brainwashing task: being conquered by our handsome streamer (completed 1/1)”

Pianxian Diewu: “You’re awesome for you are so generous and unique!”

Yili Shabai: “Do you need any equipment for legs? I’ll buy you anything!”

The streaming room almost turned on fire, and Jiang Pengji had a sneer between her lips.

Fight back if you were irritated! Those who chose to keep silent were cowards!

“Go back to the mansion first.” The curtain was put down, and the driver swayed the whip slightly.

It took no time to get to the Liu Mansion from the gambling house. Jiang Pengji directly sent someone to bring the horse from the stable to her.@@novelbin@@

“I have to go out for something. If my father asks about me, you tell him that I will come back before the county gate is locked. ”

After taking the halter, Jiang Pengji took a deep breath and jumped onto the horse’s back easily. She took the shortcut to avoid the crowds and arrived at the county gate very smoothly.

Seeing the anger in the face of several guards, Jiang Pengji thought secretly and whispered in a low voice, “It looks like they haven’t gotten out of the county gate for a long time. It is not too late.”

The check at the gate didn’t take a long time. Jiang Pengji quickly took the halter and rushed in the direction of the group of people.

The war horse of the north borderline was pure white, well-shaped, good at a long distance attack, had long lasting endurance, and was a rare kind to get. It was almost the first time that Jiang Pengji had even ridden it.

“They must be ahead of me... But the surrounding terrain is flat, so I will get exposed easily from a short distance... I should detour to get ahead of them...”

Seeing the messy and deep horseshoe prints on the ground, a sparkling light flashed in Jiang Pengji’s eyes. She then held back the halter slightly, making the horse run in another direction.

The group of people, nearly all twenty of them, would definitely not think of someone was following behind them and waiting for the best time to attack.

One of the servants looked worried and asked the leader, “What if our master blames us for misusing the name of the Meng’s...?”

“How could you call it misusing? If the people of Hejian County didn’t take so much time, we would have already arrived at the next station. The second langjun is not kidnapped by a group of bandits. Now time is everything, and the people of Hejian County should pay for the delay!” Another servant responded, not the leader. He had profited for himself in the name of the Meng’s many times.

“Shut up, all of you! We should get to the next stop as soon as possible.” The leader tightened his lips and his was quite anxious.

Since the leader made a command, no one dared to say anything. They just continued forward.

Because of the delay, they couldn’t get to the nearest station. The horses were exhausted and in an urgent need of a rest.

The leader looked at the sky and raised his hand to wipe off the sweat from his forehead with his sleeves. He said, “Rest in place.”

He sat on a small folding stool, sweating a lot. The others were also tired.

They rushed to Hejian County ceaselessly through the night after they had received the news from Meng Liang, but they had still been late. Meng Liang had already been kidnapped away by Meng Hun.

In order to send the letter back to Cang Prefecture as soon as possible, they had to proceed forward. In other words, they had not slept for one day and one night.

They had intended to have a rest at the nearest station, so they could prepare sufficient food and water and feed the horses, but they still did not catch up.

“Boss, we have no water now, and we’ve run out of food...”

If they had expected that, they would have gotten some food and water in Hejian County. Now they were in the center of wilderness, so they could not get supplies anywhere.

“Send three people to look for supplies. Let’s rest for half an hour! Remember to not come back late.”

Hejian County was surrounded by many deep mountains, and various beasts lived there. Since they were all well-trained, it was very simple to hunt some small animals.

Jiang Pengji was hiding nearby. She could clearly hear the conversations among them.

The audience in the streaming room said that there was a sense of excitement before the storm broke out.
