Chapter 34-immortal punishment
In front of the Zhou family's Gate, there were two giant stone sculptures. They were the legendary Guardian beasts of the Zhou family.
They crouched to the left and right, protecting the house.
This kind of artifact didn't know what was good and what wasn't. It would favor whoever provided for it, and was no different from a dog raised by a family.
On top of the tall gate tower, there was a plaque with the words " Haiyang state capital, home of the best ".
It was said that the person who wrote on the plaque was the Emperor of the great Qi Empire. Because the Zhou clan had offered him a generous birthday gift, happy was satisfied and gave him a gift in return. &Nbsp;
For such an Emperor to inscribe such a plaque and hang it in such a family, it was simply ironic.
However, the Zhou family stood firm and did not fall.
According to the intelligence, the Zhou clan's auction escort team had not set off yet.
The silver that they had gathered would definitely be placed within the family.
Compared to the possible risks on the road, the house was undoubtedly the safest place. With the high walls and many guards, there would be no problems at all.
Not to mention the intimidating power of their martial arts, just the Zhou family's reputation and status were enough to make the outsiders flinch.
No matter if it was a peaceful era or a chaotic one, there would never be a lack of tyrants.
No matter when, the big families would always seize the opportunity and guarantee to suppress the ordinary people.
When you hardened your heart, you would find that the other party was even more ruthless.
However, it was also because of this that the Zhou family never dreamed that someone would actually dare to take the initiative to provoke them.
Tang Zhen had already attracted the attention of the guards at the entrance when he arrived at the main entrance of the Zhou clan. When he stopped, the other party took the initiative to reprimand him.
where did this fool come from? you dare to look around here? get lost!
Tang Zhen's aura was extraordinary. With a single glance, one could tell that he wasn't an ordinary person. However, there were always people who didn't have eyes and were used to looking down on others.
Not to mention an ordinary wealthy family, they were indeed unable to compare with the Zhou family. Tang Zhen's clothes were even less of a popular Noble's dressing.
Usually, when such things happened, those who were reprimanded would be angry but not dare to say anything. In the end, they could only choose to leave obediently.
If he spoke too much, he might even be whipped.
However, today, they had encountered someone they could not afford to offend, and they did not know what would happen next.
The Guard's eyes widened even more in the next moment, because the young man in front of him had already disappeared.
In the next moment, the guard felt a huge force coming at him, and his body was suddenly sent flying.
"BOOM!"
With a muffled sound, the heavy door was directly knocked open, making a teeth-aching sound.
The wood used by the Zhou family to build the gate was a strange tree from the shade of the mountains. It grew slowly and was not afraid of being soaked in water or burned by fire. When hit by a heavy hammer, only shallow pits would appear. The fiber was flexible and could not be broken.
The doors of the noble houses were used to build, and they were painted with black oil every year. The more time passed, the stronger it became.
The Zhou family's Gate had cost a lot of money to build, and it was definitely more reliable than ordinary iron gates.
But at this moment, the door was smashed into pieces, and the door of the deep house was wide open.
The sudden change immediately alarmed the guards in the courtyard, who rushed to the front courtyard gate at once.
The Zhou family's mansion had 15 entrances. The outermost area was the doorkeeper and guards, as well as a place to Park the carriages.
On both sides of the house, there was a long corridor that led directly to the backyard, which was convenient for people to walk through when there was a problem.
After hearing the sound, the guards rushed out from both sides, passing the xuanjing in the front yard and rushing to the door.
There was also a group of guards, wearing military-style armor, and holding crossbows aimed at the gate.
At this moment, there was only a half-meter tall threshold left in front of the Zhou family's main gate. The main gate had long disappeared.
Seeing this scene, the guard was shocked and immediately realized that the visitor was not friendly.
where did this thief come from? he actually dares to provoke the Zhou family!
The one who spoke was a middle-aged man wearing a black satin warrior suit. He held a six-meter-long spear in his hand, and his eyes were full of killing intent.
This was a first-class master and also the top guard of the Zhou family. He had rushed over as soon as he heard the noise.
The high-level guards around him also had weapons in their hands, baring their fangs like vicious dogs.
But at this moment, something was suddenly thrown in from outside the door.
It was as big as a human head, and its surface was shining. Although it had scale-like patterns, it looked like some kind of metal.
"What is this?"
A guard couldn't help but ask, but the people around him shook their heads at the same time.
Before he could see what was going on, he heard a loud noise.
At the entrance of the Zhou family's front courtyard, it was as if Thunder had struck the clear sky, and the ground shook violently.
The people who were watching from afar saw thick smoke rising into the sky, mixed with broken limbs.
The Zhou family's ten-foot-high wall was now in pieces, and broken debris fell all over the cleaned Street in front of the house.
The surrounding people were attracted and gathered around, wanting to find out what was going on.
It was the same for the ordinary troops in the city. They could easily tell that it was the Zhou clan's mansion from the location of the smoke.
This was not an ordinary family. He had to deal with it immediately, or it would easily cause trouble.
He did not dare to hesitate and quickly gathered his men to check.
When they arrived at the scene, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.
There were debris everywhere, as well as broken limbs and organs. There were also two heads torn apart by wild dogs at the corner of the street.
The wide road that was forcefully widened by the Zhou family and was intentionally tamped down was now in a state of utter chaos.
The main gate of the Zhou family had long since ceased to exist. The mysterious scenery in the front courtyard and the two accounts rooms on both sides of the palanquin had also been reduced to ruins.
Among the debris, there were many bodies buried. They were wearing standard armor and many abandoned weapons.
Although his body was torn apart and covered in dust, one could still tell that he was a high-level guard of the Zhou clan.
Looking at the huge pit in the ground, everyone gasped. They really couldn't figure out what had happened.
"Could it be that the Zhou family has committed many evil deeds, and thus attracted the Thunderbolt heavenly punishment?"
Someone who was watching at the intersection couldn't help but say.
When everyone heard this, they were stunned for a moment, but a feeling of realization rose in their hearts.
That must be the case. Otherwise, how could such a miserable and terrifying scene appear? combined with the loud shaking just now, it was even more certain that the Zhou family had summoned heavenly punishment.
Although they had such thoughts, they didn't dare to talk nonsense, in case the Zhou family heard it and they were punished.
The patrolling officer braced himself and led his men into the scene of the explosion, only to hear a series of screams from the inner courtyard.
A series of strange sounds came from the Zhou clan's inner courtyard. The sounds were hurried and clear.
The officer who wanted to investigate further stopped in his tracks and hesitated before entering.
In the end, he saw a fire soaring into the sky. The men and women of the Zhou family ran out crying, many of them naked.
It was obvious that he had been woken up by an accident in his sleep, and then fled in a panic.
The soldiers were dazzled by the sight of the White, fleshy body in front of them, but they were quickly attracted by the sounds in the backyard.
"Quick, quickly go to the backyard and kill that thief!"
An old man, barefooted and bare-chested, rushed to the front of the officer.
His face was filled with anger, and his body trembled as he pointed to the backyard. His muddy eyes were filled with killing intent and fear.
Looking at his expression, it was obvious that he was used to ordering people around and was not polite to the officers at all.
The officer instantly recognized this person. He was the head of the Zhou family, a Big Shot that even the general of his family had to curry favor with.
He had once been an official for many years and did things in a sinister and vicious manner. Now, he was enjoying his old age and was one of the few people in Haiyang City who had a long lifespan.
The officer lowered his body and was about to nod in agreement when he heard a sharp sound.
The snow-white wall beside the Zhou family head was pierced through by something, and in the next moment, it landed on his body.
"Pfft!"
The head of the Zhou family had disappeared, turning into a pile of rotten meat. Only half of his stomach and skinny legs were left.
The officer's face was splattered with blood. He looked at the scene in front of him in a daze, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
The courage in his bones and the thought of trying to please him faded like the tide, leaving only deep fear.
Daring to destroy the Zhou family and kill the head of the Zhou family, it was definitely not something that an ordinary person could do.
Provoking such an existence was simply courting death.
As soon as the thought came to his mind, he heard another shout, which woke the officer up and looked up at the sky.
A wispy figure actually soared into the sky and flew into the clouds in an instant.
The officer was stunned. He opened his mouth and only managed to squeeze out a word after a long time.
"Immortal puppet!"
