Chapter 213 Punishing Yamen Runners
Chapter 213 Punishing Yamen Runners
The yamen runner raised the corner of his mouth, revealing an extremely cold smile that was chilling.
He said in a mocking tone: "How is it? Are you scared now? Humph, you still dream of having a meal?
"Dream on! I'm going to push you all into this big pit and make you a delicious meal for those beasts!"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly stretched out his hands and pushed hard at the guards with all his strength.
At this critical moment, one of the guards was quick-witted and grabbed the arm of the yamen runner who was pushing him hard, and pulled him hard.
In an instant, the arrogant and domineering yamen runner lost his balance and fell straight into the big pit full of poisonous snakes.
The poisonous snakes at the bottom of the pit smelled the scent of prey and quickly crawled up, twisting their bodies.
In the blink of an eye, dense swarms of poisonous snakes surged onto the body of the unfortunate yamen runner like a tide, completely submerging him in an instant.
All that could be heard was a series of extremely shrill screams that resounded through the sky. The sound seemed to come from the depths of hell, making people shudder.
However, as time went on, the terrifying screams gradually weakened and eventually disappeared completely into the air.
The other yamen runners were all horrified when they saw this scene.
They never imagined that these seemingly ordinary people in front of them actually possessed special skills and knew kung fu.
For a moment, these guys who usually acted arrogantly were all panic-stricken on their faces. They looked at each other, at a loss as to what to do.
At this time, one of the yamen runners pretended to be calm, pulled out a long whip from his waist, and waved it in the air, making a whistling sound.
He widened his eyes, his face full of ferocity as he roared at the guards, "Well! You ignorant fellows, how dare you attack the officials of our county government?
I am really tired of living, so today I will let you taste the bitterness!"
After saying this, he raised his whip and pretended to hit the guards.
One of the yamen runners stared at the guards in front of him with a suspicious look on his face, his eyes as sharp as torches.
He frowned and asked in a questioning tone, "Since you possess martial arts skills and are so skilled, why are you still lingering here? What are you trying to do?"
As soon as he finished speaking, another yamen runner suddenly slapped his forehead as if he had suddenly been enlightened, and shouted loudly: "Oh! I understand,
So you guys are here for this bunch of lowly civilians, right? Humph, you really don't know your own limitations!"
After saying this, the yamen runner raised a scornful smile at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes revealed a hint of disdain and ridicule.
"Alright, you're brave! But I want to see how many people you can save with just a few of you out there among so many people!"
After the bailiff had uttered these harsh words, he turned around and strode straight towards the house. It was obvious from his posture that he intended to drive out everyone in the house.
At this moment, Yun Muheng, who was standing on the roof overlooking the whole situation, saw this scene and couldn't help but get furious.
He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white from excessive force.
The pair of eyes that were originally clear and bright now turned scarlet and terrifying, as if burning with rage.
On his forehead, the blue veins were clearly visible and protruding, which showed the uncontrollable anger in his heart.
Just as the bailiff was about to step into the house, Yun Muheng could no longer suppress the anger in his heart. He stood up suddenly and pretended to fly down, wanting to kill those arrogant bailiffs in one fell swoop.
However, at this critical moment, Ye Xiaotuan, who was standing by, was quick-witted and grabbed him, shaking his head slightly at him, signaling him not to act rashly.
Then, Ye Xiaotuan took out a few pills from his pocket and quickly handed them to Yun Muheng, saying in a low voice, "Don't be impulsive. Just use these pills to deal with them."
Yun Muheng took the pill and hesitated for a moment, but finally followed Ye Xiaotuan's advice. He secretly gathered strength in his palm and accurately hit the hateful yamen runners with the pill.
The moment the pill touched their bodies, it suddenly exploded!
In an instant, an extremely strange fragrance filled the air.
This fragrance is neither as fresh and elegant as the scent of flowers, nor as strong and pungent as musk. It is an indescribable unique scent that makes people feel shocked when they smell it.
At this moment, the poisonous snakes that had been quietly dormant in the pit suddenly became restless as if they had received some strong stimulation.
They twisted their bodies, bared their fangs, and climbed upwards madly.
Not long after, the poisonous snakes successfully crawled out of the deep pit, and then like a group of mad demons, they pounced straight towards the yamen runners at lightning speed.
In the blink of an eye, the bodies, faces and even heads of those people were covered with dense swarms of poisonous snakes. From a distance, it looked like a small hill made of poisonous snakes.
Faced with this sudden and horrifying scene, the yamen runners were terrified and screamed in terror at the top of their lungs.
They waved their hands desperately, trying to shake off the poisonous snakes that were wrapped around them, but there were too many of them and they were too dense together. No matter how they struggled, it was in vain.
In just a few moments, those people were exhausted and panting, and collapsed to the ground, unable to move.
But those ferocious poisonous snakes had no intention of giving up and continued to tightly wrap around their bodies, wrapping more and more around them.
Finally, as time went by, those people completely lost their vitality and lay quietly on the ground without any movement.
At the same time, the venomous snakes that were originally extremely ferocious seemed to have exhausted all their strength. They gradually loosened their sharp teeth and slowly slid down from the bodies of the yamen runners. Finally, they lay there limply, also lifeless.
Although the guards standing by were veterans of the battlefield and had seen all kinds of storms, the bloody and horrifying scene before them still made them feel terrified.
Their faces turned pale, cold sweat dripped down their foreheads, and they all turned their heads away, not daring to look again.
One of the guards frowned and said worriedly, "Based on the current situation, it's not advisable to stay here any longer. Otherwise, if someone comes later, I'm afraid these innocent people will still find it difficult to escape death."
Another guard nodded in agreement, saying, "Indeed, there is no time to lose. Let's take advantage of this moment and lead the people away from here."
Let's go to the city gate first. I firmly believe that the prince and his men must have been waiting there for a long time, waiting to pick us up."
The other guards all echoed, "It seems that this is the only feasible plan now."
