The person was wearing black clothes and a black hood, and his expression could not be seen clearly.

Only his hands were exposed.

When they arrived at the entrance of Qingliu Village, the man in black looked around, as if checking for anything unusual.

When this person appeared, Zhou An and others immediately held their breath and waited patiently.

After a while, the man in black walked in and took off the hood in front of him.

When the hood was taken off, a bearded face was revealed, it was County Magistrate Chen.

"well……"

County Magistrate Chen sighed and said in a rather regretful tone: "Sure enough, I was fooled. You guys can come out now."

When Zhou An heard this, he winked at Zhang Sixian and others, and walked out of the darkness.

They surrounded Magistrate Chen but did not take action.

"Master Chen, I really didn't expect that you were the mastermind behind the scenes." Zhang Sixian said seriously.

County Magistrate Chen sighed: "The world is full of chaos, and there are so many places you can't think of."

Zhou An pulled out the long knife from his waist and said, "From what you say, you know this is a trap."

"Even if it's a trap, I will come because I can't miss any opportunity." County Magistrate Chen stared at the long knife in Zhou An's hand.

"I really didn't expect you to be a hidden master. It was you who ruined me, but are you sure you want to do it here?"

There are villagers all around, and there is only a few smoke from cooking.

This means that if you take action here, the people will suffer.

Zhou An smiled and said, "I won't bother Mr. Chen to worry anymore."

Next to him, Ye Shuang gestured, and several people made of straw walked out of the surrounding rooms.

These scarecrows have talismans attached to their bodies, and the lively scene just now was created by the scarecrows.

When County Magistrate Chen saw this scene, he suddenly said: "So that's it. The talismans are used just like real people. He is worthy of being the ninth disciple of the Imperial Master. Mr. Ye's talismans are really advanced."

"I am completely convinced of my defeat."

At this moment, the speed at which several people gathered around was accelerating.

"Can you please talk? Don't take action as soon as you come." County Magistrate Chen sighed.

"Li Gouwa, what else do you want to say?" Zhou An joked.

The village likes to give names that are easy to support, such as Gouwa.

From the beginning to now, Magistrate Chen has always looked calm.

But when Zhou An said these three words, Magistrate Chen's expression changed.

His calm expression turned into anger, as if he had touched his reverse scales.

"Shut up!" County Magistrate Chen said in an angry tone, his beard fluttering: "I take my mother's surname, not Li!"

"That stinking man only knows how to read, and he wants my mother to support him. He has been instilling in me the benefits of reading every day since I was a child."

"But what about the result? You can't achieve anything in this world just by working hard. I'm always one step behind, always one step behind!"

"One step separates us forever!"

"They are talented, they are capable, they are real scholars, so why should I be treated unfairly?"

"How am I inferior to them?"

"Your Majesty said that the imperial examination is fair, but I don't see fairness. I only see the injustice in the world. I want to change it. I want everyone to think highly of me, instead of living in such a poor place!"

A series of words came out of County Magistrate Chen's mouth. Magistrate Chen's expression was extremely angry. Coupled with the inexplicable aura on his body, he felt a sense of oppression.

"Let's do it." Zhou An raised his eyebrows and said slowly.

He didn't want to argue anymore. In the eyes of a paranoid person, everything was paranoid.

"Wait!" Magistrate Chen suddenly raised his hand to interrupt.

"I will give you a chance. You surrender to me. I will not kill you. I will let you see my talent. I will take you to the highest peak and let your names be remembered in history books."

"I am very optimistic about you. If you become my right-hand man, you will be honored by this decision."

Zhou An asked strangely: "Have you always been so confident?"

County Magistrate Chen was stunned.

"Forget it." Zhou An pointed his long knife at Magistrate Chen and said.

He didn't explain anything and took action first.

The battle started suddenly.

When Zhou An took action, everyone took action.

Zhou An, Zhang Sixian and Xie Baotou were all wielding long knives. When the light of the knives passed by, white light formed into sheets.

Zhangsi County's sword technique emphasizes the word "meng", which means opening and closing widely, and the attack is extremely powerful.

Xie Baotou, on the other hand, pays attention to the word "quick", which is as fast as lightning and difficult to defend.

Zhou An's knife is both fast and powerful, and it can be retracted and deployed freely, lifting weights with ease.

Zhang Si County is a giant sword light, Xie Baotou is a knife net, and Zhou An is a silk thread that can be lengthened and contracted as desired.

On the other side, Ye Shuang also took action.

He picked up a handful of talismans in his hand and threw them out casually.

The breeze blew by, lifting Ye Shuang's sleeves, and a feeling of desolation came to his face.

The talisman paper that floated out instantly spontaneously ignited and turned into countless ice, fire, thunder and lightning.

The combined attacks of the four people were powerful enough to level a tall building.

The roaring sounds continued, smoke and dust blew into the face, and huge cracks appeared in the entire land.

The place where Magistrate Chen stood slowly turned into a deep pit.

"Something's wrong." Zhou An frowned.

Not only did he feel something was wrong, everyone present felt the same way.

They were able to determine that the attack had fallen on Magistrate Chen.

But it was too fake, and Magistrate Chen couldn't just surrender.

At this moment, a burst of light emerged from where Magistrate Chen was standing.

"Your methods are really strong. It's a pity that you met me."

The rising smoke and dust gradually disappeared, and Zhou An and others could clearly see the situation in the field.

Magistrate Chen stood with his hands behind his back, his body covered with a layer of white light.

And directly above the light, there was a book floating above County Magistrate Chen's head.

The words on the book are densely packed with light, and can be seen clearly even from a distance.

"The Book of General Trends in the World." Ye Shuang said coldly: "It's a pirated version."

Zhou An was puzzled.

Zhang Sixian explained: "This is a book written by the Prime Minister. It focuses on the general trend of the world. This book is highly praised by scholars. He should have copied it himself."

The prime minister is the head of the officials of the Chu Kingdom, and is also an example for the scholars of the Chu Kingdom to follow.

County Magistrate Chen was in the light curtain and said slowly: "It is indeed a copy, but it is enough."

"I used the water burial method to imitate the Prime Minister. I have been imitating it for several years. Unfortunately, my level is too low. After all, I am not a scholar. There are restrictions, but it is enough to deal with you."

The method of water burial is good at simulating it, and even Zhou An's ability can be simulated.

County Magistrate Chen has been immersed in it for several years and has obviously got the framework.

Just as Magistrate Chen finished these words, the book above his head emitted an even stronger light.

Words ejected from the book one by one, with great power, turned into the size of a millstone, and suppressed several people.

It’s been said before.

No matter which profession it is, no matter which one of the four categories it is, it all pays attention to the difference between mental methods and techniques.

The same goes for scholars.

People who practice the mind method are immersed in the mind method.

The skills of scholars are even more special. They study step by step and improve their skills through article after article.

But the threshold is high.

Copying is one of them.

The moment the words appeared, the expressions of everyone present changed.

Zhou An used the Dragon Step and took two steps back, barely avoiding the words.

Ye Shuang's response method was even more outrageous. She pasted a talisman on herself, and it turned into a strong wind and disappeared.

After the words passed through, it condensed again.

There is no corresponding escape method between Zhang Sixian and Xie Captou, but what the two of them pay attention to is cooperation.

The knife net is in front, and the giant knife light is behind, splitting the words in front of him.

But the two of them were not much better, and the hand holding the knife was already shaking slightly.

"Second rate." Capt. Xie's face was a little distorted, and with the scar on his face, he looked even more terrifying.

Magistrate Chen in front of him has already entered the rhythm of a second-rate master.

"A second-rate master will deal a devastating blow to a third-rate master. I've already told you that you can't deal with me."

County Magistrate Chen said indifferently: "I will give you another chance, if... huh?"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Zhou An take action again.

"Opportunity? I don't need it, I will only give others opportunities."

Zhou An said calmly.

He hid the knife in his right hand and raised the light of the knife again.

This time the sword light was thin and dense, turning into countless threads, weaving into a huge sword light in the sky.

This giant sword light is different from the one in Zhangsi County.

Zhang Sixian was split into a whole piece, while Zhou An was woven with tiny sword lights, each part carrying the power of strangulation, and the power was even more powerful.

"boom!"

When the sword light fell on Magistrate Chen's head, it was intercepted by the white light curtain and dissipated instantly.

Two of the surrounding houses were destroyed by the residual power of the sword, and the book on Magistrate Chen's head shook slightly.

At the same time, Zhou An put his left hand on his waist, and a palm-sized pan fell into his hand, covering it directly on the white light screen.

"Dian!"

The Qi in his body was flowing crazily, and Zhou An wanted to knock Magistrate Chen upside down.

But I never thought that there was a resistance from the pan in my hand, actually resisting the power of subversion.

The book on Magistrate Chen's head shook faster.

"I didn't expect that you almost broke my defense."

"Zhou An, you really gave me a big surprise. You are a third-rate person but a second-rate person...I have decided that you must be killed."

The murderous aura in Magistrate Chen became even thicker.

A strong light appeared on the books overhead.

At the same time, a writing brush appeared on County Magistrate Chen's right hand.

County Magistrate Chen waved his brush lightly.

The light of the words tripled in an instant and shot towards Zhou An.

Deep in Zhou An's mind, a sense of crisis emerged.

This has never happened before.

County Magistrate Chen gave him this sense of crisis for the first time.

The words were about to get closer, the Qi on Zhou An's body surged crazily, and he launched the Wandering Dragon Step.

Pianruo Jinghong, like a swimming dragon, used his ability to the extreme and dodged quickly.

But the words were like maggots attached to bones, as if they had a target. No matter how Zhou An avoided them, these words followed closely behind him.

And looking at the speed, it is getting faster and faster.

"You can't hide."

Magistrate Chen said calmly.

"I have figured out your abilities a long time ago. Although your body skills are superb, the gap in our strength is here."

While he was talking, Zhang Sixian and Xie Captou attacked again.

"You are very annoying." County Magistrate Chen waved his hand lightly.

The words with twice the power hit him.

This time, Zhangsi County and the others were not able to stop him.

The two men flew out upside down, the long knives in their hands shattered, and they spat out a few mouthfuls of blood. They were already seriously injured.

"disease!"

Ye Shuang took out a piece of talisman paper, which burned quickly.

Zhou An, who was escaping, felt that a green smoke enveloped him.

The next moment, his speed actually increased.

The text behind him slowed down correspondingly. After Zhou An dodged, he took this opportunity to turn over and perform two moves.

"boom!"

The words shattered and disappeared.

Only then did Zhou An look at Zhang Si County and Xie Captou.

He found that the two men had been seriously injured and had no strength to resist.

"I suddenly changed my mind. I want to spare your lives." County Magistrate Chen said slowly.

"You are the mastermind behind everything, and you are trying to attack the imperial officials, so I resisted and caught you all."

"By the way, in the process of fighting against the mastermind behind the scenes, the ninth disciple of the national master and Zhou An, the county police officer, died unexpectedly."

Zhou An sneered and said, "Mr. Chen, after being an official for so many years, I haven't learned anything. It's quite clear that I framed and framed the blame."

County Magistrate Chen touched his long beard with his hand: "This makes sense. After all, I will continue to be the county magistrate. Maybe after reporting this, I will be rewarded. After this selection, I will be transferred to If I go to a more prosperous place, then no one will find me anymore."

"Zhou An, Mr. Ye, please leave quickly!" Zhang Sixian fell to the ground and shouted.

He is a smart man and has thought of the essentials.

If Zhou An and Ye Shuang died here, they would not be able to explain themselves even if they had a hundred mouths.

But if the two of them escaped and survived, then they only need to report the matter to the police, and County Magistrate Chen would be unable to fly.

"You can't run away." County Magistrate Chen waved the brush in his hand again.

Words soared into the sky one by one, surrounding them.

Zhou An raised his eyebrows: "Mr. Chen, you are making it difficult for me to do this."

County Magistrate Chen smiled and said: "It's hard to do anything, but there's nothing you can do about it. Who told you to go against me?"

"Master Chen, you may have made a mistake." Zhou An said slowly: "From beginning to end, it was you who came to me first. If I didn't take action, would I be waiting to die?"

"What's the point of explaining now? You're going to die anyway." Magistrate Chen said.

He seemed not to argue with Zhou An.

Zhou Anle said: "Does Mr. Chen think he is absolutely sure?"

County Magistrate Chen frowned when he heard this.

He suddenly felt something was wrong.

From beginning to end, Zhou An didn't seem to panic at all.

Even now, Zhou An looks calm.

This feeling seems to be very confident.

"Something's wrong..." County Magistrate Chen thought.

When the idea came to him, he couldn't hold it back.

"Do you want to defeat the second rate with the third rate?" County Magistrate Chen asked subconsciously.

Zhou An flicked the back of the knife with his finger, his body filled with murderous aura.

"You are wrong. Instead of defeating me, I will cut off your head."
