Soul echo

Chapter 159 Montreux
"Go in!"

A soldier hooked his mouth and pushed the adventurer in front of him with a musket. He pushed the strong man who was full of anger but dared not vent his steps, and walked into the city with his head bowed.

With joy in his chest, the soldier turned his gun and shouted: "Next!"

Then, a shadow rushed towards his face, causing him to fall into a daze for an instant.

All sounds seemed to stop at the same moment, talking, breathing, wind... all disappeared.

He looked up, saw a pair of black and white eyes in the shadow that covered the sky and the sun, and found that those eyes were staring at him.

Gudong!

The Adam's apple rolled involuntarily, and the soldier didn't even notice that his arms and legs were shaking.

He saw the black figure raise his hand, and then his eyes went dark, his feet left the ground suddenly, and severe pain came from the back of his head!
Zhong Ye grabbed the soldier's head in front of him and threw him towards the other soldiers, knocking several of them to the ground.

When he concentrates, he can feel any wind and grass around him, he can feel the breath of the cold wind, he can hear the chirping of birds, he can hear the sound of clothes rubbing against each other, and he can also feel the muscles and bones of the soldiers around him turning. , the sound of blood rushing in the body.

When several soldiers raised their guns, Zhong Ye had already swept his arm over, knocked their weapons to the ground with a slap, and snatched a musket with his hands.

Turn your toes behind you, driving your body to twist.

The musket held by Zhong Ye swung it in a big circle and hit the hand of a soldier who was about to shoot, and there was a sound of bone dislocation in an instant.

There were still a few unresponsive soldiers who only came to their senses at this time, but before they had time to raise their guns, Zhong Ye stepped in front of them and knocked them down with fists and kicks.

With a shake of his arm, the musket held by the barrel turned around immediately, and the muzzle was aimed at the head of a soldier who had been knocked to the ground before and wanted to raise his gun to fight back.

Looking at the black muzzle of the gun, the soldier stopped immediately.

It was also at this time that Zhong Ye's five fingers suddenly popped out, and he threw the musket in his hand, knocking the muskets flying in the hands of two fallen soldiers, and then hooked his right leg back, kicking the chest of another soldier who was trying to get up.

There were still a few soldiers who did not raise their muskets. Seeing that their companions were knocked to the ground, they held the guns tightly, but pointed the muzzles at the ground, breathing heavily and sweating profusely.

Zhong Ye glanced at them, and said calmly, "It's a wise move."

Those soldiers were all veterans, with more or less visible injuries on their bodies.

They know more than the recruits who don't know the good and the bad, and don't know the heights of the sky and the earth. They understand that there is a kind of existence in this world called "transcendent". It is tough and invulnerable.

There are such people around the lord, but they rarely see those people exerting their power.

From the moment they see this person, they realize that this person is likely to be that type of person.

The reason why they can feel this way is not that they are perceptive, but that he 'hopes' they will be aware.

All this happened in just a few seconds, and even Lilian didn't react, she just felt that the battle was over in a blink of an eye.

Seven or eight soldiers lay sprawled on the ground, moaning in pain uncontrollably, and a few soldiers stood there dumbfounded, motionless.

Zhong Ye looked away from the veterans, looked at the soldiers lying on the ground, and asked, "Is it interesting to oppress civilians?"

At this time, there was an uproar all around.

People were half terrified, half grateful to look at Zhong Ye, and even a few businessmen stood aside and watched, not minding the congestion at the city gate at all.

"Molesting women, molesting children is fun, isn't it?"

Zhong Ye bent down, picked up a soldier by the collar, lifted him up, and said coldly, "Speak and answer my question!"

Although the distance was far, he could see clearly just now that this guy didn't even spare children, and insisted on a body search.

The neckline was tightened, squeezing the neck, and the muscles of the neck contracted inward, pressing the trachea, making it impossible for the soldier to breathe smoothly, and his face was flushed soon after being suppressed.

"no no……"

The soldiers kicked their legs in the air, tears and saliva were squeezed out and painted all over their faces.

Zhong Ye counted down silently in his heart, and lifted him up for a few more seconds before throwing the soldier to the ground.

"Uh cough, uh, heh, cough cough cough..."

After landing, the soldier didn't have time to feel the pain on his body, so he hurriedly turned over and gasped for air, spitting out the snot and saliva pouring down his throat.

But just as he turned over, Zhong Ye stepped on him, "Speak!"

This time, his tone was more intense.

The people held their breath, not daring or wanting to step forward to dissuade them, so they surrounded the city gate in a daze, watching Zhong Ye's violence against the soldiers they dared not provoke in the past.

The soldier who fell on the ground curled up, his face was full of pain, his eyes were filled with resentment, he gritted his teeth, and was not ready to answer.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency..."

After dawdling for a long time, several veterans finally negotiated who would stand up as their representative.

The veteran who was pushed out glared at the others, took a deep breath, moved his steps, and called out in a low voice: "Your Excellency, it's not good for you to do this. Although you are an extraordinary person, in the young master... oh , There are several people like you around my master.

"If you do this, if the master gets angry, you won't benefit from it. You are just a few civilians from other places. I will ask them to apologize later..."

The old soldier's voice became smaller and smaller, because he saw Zhong Ye's eyes looking at him coldly, he laughed dryly, and closed his mouth.

"Since he can do this to foreigners, what about you locals? You can be sure that he doesn't have that hobby?" Zhong Ye asked coldly.

"How could it be, Toka, we watched him grow up, he won't..."

Halfway through the speech, the veteran himself got stuck, and stared blankly at the soldier on the ground.

The air became quiet all of a sudden, and the eyes of everyone looking at the soldier trampled by Zhong Ye gradually became strange.

The silence didn't last long, and the low and numerous discussions sounded.

Soldier Toka finally caught his breath, vaguely heard people's discussion, looked up in astonishment, and found that not only civilians, but even several of his companions were looking at him with disgust and disdain.

In the eyes of people in this era, the difference between locals and foreigners is almost equivalent to the difference between cattle and sheep, they just didn't think of it just now.

"No, I, I'm not..." Toka's lips trembled, trying to defend himself.

But no one wanted to hear his defense at all, and turned their heads to look aside.

Seeing this, Zhong Ye kicked him away and walked into the city. When he passed by the veteran, he paused, "It's your duty to inspect foreigners, so I don't have much to say, but I don't like to see you take advantage of Your authority oppresses other civilians, because you are no different from them in essence - your power comes from the lord, once the lord no longer trusts you, or when you are old and can no longer serve as the lord's soldiers, then you and What is the difference between those who have been bullied by you?"

After finishing speaking, Zhong Ye continued to walk towards the city, no one dared to stop him.

After hearing what he said, not only the veterans, but even the other soldiers changed their expressions.

The guns in their hands and the violence they possess all come from the lord, but whether they can own these things is at the lord's discretion. In fact, they are no different from other civilians at all, and they are all part of the lord's 'property', he thought How to deal with it can be how to deal with it.

The fallen soldiers grabbed their weapons and got up dejectedly, looking at me and looking at you, without speaking for a long time.

A soldier looked at Zhong Ye's back and muttered softly, "They went in without checking..."

The expressions of the other soldiers changed and they blocked his mouth.

Toka held a musket in his hand, and his drooping face looked cloudy and uncertain, and he kept gnashing his teeth and struggling in his heart.

"Toca, put down the gun!"

A low shout came to his ears suddenly, startling Toka, he hurriedly raised his head, only to see a few veterans standing in front of him in a siege.

After being pushed out before, the veteran who was in charge of talking with Zhong Ye had an unhappy expression on his face, so he went up and snatched the gun from Toka's hand.

"I will tell your parents about your matter, you go home immediately, and you are not allowed to go anywhere!"

Hearing this, Toka turned pale instantly, shook his head in panic, and pleaded bitterly: "No, Uncle Ferry, please don't tell them..."

The old soldier didn't listen to his excuse at all, and growled: "Shut up! So many people here have seen it, do you think you can still hide it? Go home now, don't embarrass your parents anymore!"

Opening his mouth, Toka quickly glanced around, and found people's obscure sightlines, then lowered his head in fear, and left in despair.

Zhong Ye also withdrew his attention, popped out the copper coin in his hand, and at the same time picked up a wooden hair ornament on the stall in front of him, and asked the stall owner, "Do you know where 'Xiyong's Lake Water' is?"

After catching the copper coin, the woman holding her daughter gave Zhong Ye a grateful glance, nodded and said, "They're just to the west of the city, near the lake."

Zhong Ye smiled slightly and stood up, "Thank you."

Turning around and handing the hair accessory to his student, Zhong Ye tightened the belt of the large scabbard, touched the throwing knife on the belt with his fingers, and walked towards the west of the city.
