Chapter 104: Killing the Chicken to Scare the Monkey
Just then, someone in the crowd soared into the sky.
There was an innate master hiding among them, and when he saw that the matter was exposed, he wanted to escape.
Ji Chen took a step forward, and the knife light slashed across the sky, slashing at the innate master who soared into the sky.
"Puff!"
Blood was scattered in the sky, and the body of the innate master was split in half and fell into the crowd, causing a panic.
[Killing Point +2000]
Then, several more innate masters soared into the sky, trying to escape, but they were all caught up by Ji Chen and killed in the air.
The long street was silent.
The big boss and his men quickly caught all the instigators in the crowd.
There were a total of sixty-three people, most of whom were scholars, poor scholars, storytellers, and some gangsters.
The sixty-odd people were caught, and their faces changed immediately, secretly thinking that it was not good.
They never thought that these people had such a sharp eye that they could find them out among so many people.
Ji Chen stared at these people and said coldly: "You are the ones who have been instigating just now."
"What instigation? What we said are all facts."
"It is wrong to speak for justice. What a joke."
The two gangsters who spoke were still stubborn even after being caught.
As long as you refuse to admit it, what can you do to me.
Ji Chen raised his hand and swung his knife.
"Puff!"
Two heads flew up, and two headless bodies fell down.
These two people obviously have problems. They dared to be stubborn even after being caught. They were either brainwashed or raised as dead soldiers.
Many major forces like to raise dead soldiers and do things that are not allowed to see the light.
As these two people were killed, the remaining people trembled slightly, their faces turned pale, and they were afraid and stubborn. They still held a glimmer of luck in their hearts. Relying on their identity as scholars, they bet that Ji Chen would not dare to kill scholars in front of so many people.
Even though Ji Chen had just killed several innate masters in the air, even though he had just killed two gangsters, these scholars still looked like they were ready to die.
In Daxia, scholars think highly of themselves, and even those high-ranking practitioners are not taken seriously by them.
How can a crude warrior be compared with scholars like us?
Some people wanted to continue to argue and rebuke Ji Chen, but Ji Chen did not give them a chance.
Raising his hand and swinging the knife, a flash of knife light suddenly lit up, and more than a dozen heads soared into the sky, and corpses fell one after another.
Ji Chen was not soft-hearted at all. Since these people dared to provoke them, they must have received benefits.
Since you have become a whore, you still want to set up a memorial archway, how can it be so good.
At this moment, everyone was stunned and looked at Ji Chen in horror. He actually dared to kill scholars.
The remaining scholars turned pale and began to fear in their hearts.
At this moment, the knife light lit up again, and more than a dozen heads fell to the ground.
The remaining thirty or so scholars finally couldn't hold it anymore. Most of them knelt on the ground, and some collapsed directly.
"Spare my life!"
"I was wrong!"
Ji Chen looked indifferent.
"Where is the toughness just now! Now that I know I was wrong, it's too late!"
He showed no mercy, the knife flashed like a cold moon, heads rolled down, bodies were lying horizontally, heads rolled, and blood flowed along the street.
The remaining people were desperate, and someone yelled madly: "Ji Chen, you are a demon, cruel and inhumane, colluding with officials and businessmen, driving up prices, and levying heavy taxes. You will be punished by God."
"It's a pity that you can't see that scene!"
Ji Chen's cold voice sounded, and then the knife flashed, and heads rolled down.
The whole long street was dead silent, everyone was numb, and the cold air was coming out. No one dared to stir up trouble anymore. The eyes of the people looking at Ji Chen were horror and fear.
Among them, most of them were incited to follow the riot, and everyone had a herd mentality, thinking that the law does not punish the masses.
But now there are deaths, more than 60 people, and the main instigators of the riot were all killed, and the morale of the people was instantly disintegrated.
The law does not punish the masses, but it can kill typical cases.
This is the effect that Ji Chen wants, to kill one person to warn the rest. Establish an absolute authority and completely eliminate the idea that the law does not punish the masses.
Of course, this is not enough. This is just the first step. Ji Chen's ultimate goal is to eradicate all the troublemakers hidden in the crowd, first cut off Jiang Zuozhi's minions, and let Jiang Zuozhi expose himself.
Ji Chen glanced at the crowd, and his cold voice resounded throughout the street.
"A bunch of idiots, ignorant! Self-righteous things, thinking that after reading a little, they can learn to speak out like famous officials, and think that they can gain a good reputation and spread their name to all directions by speaking out for justice here today."
"Stupid things, they can't read a word, but they still learn to give advice. They are used as guns and don't know it. They still think they are outspoken. If you have the ability to give advice to the demons, see if the demons will indulge you."
"He spit...!"
Ji Chen started the group spray mode. When it comes to spraying people, he has never lost.
There was a scholar in the crowd who couldn't stand being scolded and asked, "Why don't you go and kill the demon? The demons in Black Wind Village are causing chaos. As a small flag of the Demon Suppression Division, you didn't get rid of them. Instead, you targeted the kind family of Zhao Mansion in Qinghe County and wiped out the entire Zhao Mansion. Are you abusing your power and killing innocent people?"
"Who told you that I didn't go to Black Wind Village? Who told you that Zhao Mansion is a kind family?"
Ji Chen asked back.
"Everyone is saying that this is already a well-known thing in Qinghe County."
"Everyone, who are you? What's your name? Who is saying it? Where did you hear it from?"
"Everyone says your grandfather is cheating on you, but he is your father. You and your father are brothers, and your mother is both your mother and your sister-in-law. Do you believe it?"
Ji Chen asked several questions in a row, and the scholar's face turned red.
"You, you are talking nonsense."
The scholar was immediately angry. Ji Chen's remarks simply overturned his worldview as a scholar.
Can such a thing be said in front of so many people?
Ji Chen said: "You also know that this is nonsense. You believe what others say. Have you investigated it? Do you have any evidence?"
Another voice appeared in the crowd, trying to confuse the audience.
"Putting aside other things, aren't you wrong? They may be excited in their words, but they are also for the people. You kill people without asking the facts. Is there really no problem at all?"
This is a typical case of talking about reason when you can't beat them, and talking about character when you can't talk.
"Put aside your mother's facts, fuck!"
Ji Chen was really angry. Sure enough, he couldn't give these scholars face.
I gave you face, but you got more and more excited.
"Shouldn't they be killed? They are a bunch of rebels who gathered to riot. Shouldn't they be killed?"
"Knights use force to disrupt prohibitions, and scholars use literature to disrupt laws. I think you, a bunch of traitors, will not cry until you see the coffin."
"Chief Constable Xing, throw all of them into prison and classify them as slaves. I will personally write a document to submit to the Lord."
When Ji Chen said this, everyone changed color, especially the scholars. They were completely uneasy. Once they had a prison record, their future would be ruined.
If they were classified as slaves, their lives would be completely ruined. The identity of scholars would be automatically stripped away, and they would never be able to participate in the exam again. They would even be worse than beggars, who at least had the status of ordinary people.
The same was true for the common people. When they learned that they were going to be arrested and thrown into prison, they simply refused to sit in, especially when they heard that they had to change their nationality, their faces changed immediately.
Slave country, worse than dogs.
