Chapter 2642: Nothing Left to Live For

However, a few days ago, spies from Wei Country did infiltrate the Capital to harm the War Prince.

Even though the people know the City Gate Official is deliberately slandering the Weirdo, during this sensitive period, no one dares to speak out of turn; they are just common folk, clearly no match for the government office, and self-preservation is the real truth.

Thus, everyone remained silent.

The Weirdo lying on the ground suddenly sprang up, and slapped fiercely toward the City Gate Official...

"Oh my, mother!"

The City Gate Official fell to the ground in a dog-eating-mud posture.

The people were stunned; earlier when the Weirdo fought the government soldiers, his movements were too quick to see clearly, but this time they saw it real clearly, and couldn’t help bursting into loud laughter...

"Ah hahaha...! He fell down, looks so funny!" A three or four-year-old Little Kid, who was ignorant, stretched out his chubby finger, pointed at the City Gate Official who fell down, clapped his hands, and laughed heartily.

The boss got beaten, the government soldiers were scared to death, they hurriedly went forward to help him up.

The City Gate Official made a fool of himself in public, flew into rage out of humiliation, and first cursed at the mocking people: "You unruly folks, are you trying to rebel? What are you laughing at, shut up immediately."

The people were frightened and quickly covered their mouths; as amusing as the scene was, offending the official might create trouble when entering the city in the future.

The Little Kid’s mouth was also covered by his mother; children are ignorant, sometimes saying straightforward things, easily offending people, especially petty ones who hold grudges.

The people dared not make a sound, the City Gate Official was satisfied.

"A grown man bullying some common folk every day, what kind of hero are you?" The Weirdo scoffed coldly while lying on the ground.

The City Gate Official had made one embarrassment after another in front of the people, long holding a grudge against the Weirdo, yelled angrily to the government soldiers: "Brothers, all go for it, kill this Wei Country spy."

The government soldiers responded in unison: "Yes."

Since the Imperial Guard Army went to the border to fight a war, the Emperor worried he might not sit long on the Dragon Throne, thus the guards at the city gate were specially increased severalfold.

Usually, there were only dozens of government soldiers guarding the city gate, but after the army left the Capital, overnight, the guards at the city gate multiplied several times, reaching a total of more than two hundred, upon hearing the City Gate Official’s order, they swarmed out...

"Charge...! Capture the Wei Country spy!"

The momentum was tremendous, those unaware might think an army from Wei Country had invaded the Capital!

At this time, a subordinate brought a bottle of medicine, applied it to the City Gate Official’s eye, and wrapped it with cloth, turning him into a One-Eyed Dragon, but it eased the stabbing pain in his eye at last, making him feel better than dead.

The City Gate Official pressed his hand on his eye, spoke viciously: "Old man, with your crippled self, pretending to be a spy, I advise you to surrender obediently! I, Master, will leave you a whole corpse."

"Oh, oh...! Defeated opponent, still dare to boast!" The Weirdo lying on the ground laughed until he was out of breath.

The City Gate Official was furious, scolded the government soldiers: "What are you dawdling for? Hurry and kill him."

"Yes!"

The government soldiers swarmed toward the Weirdo, but the Weirdo was agile, weaving through them back and forth.

The government soldiers couldn’t even touch the hem of his clothes.

The City Gate Official shouted angrily from the side: "Incompetent! Useless! All a bunch of fools."

The people entering the city saw the soldiers and the Weirdo fighting, swords and shadows everywhere, terrified completely, making money is important, but life is even more so.

Hence, they turned around and headed back home.

Business and such can be done another day, if life is lost, it cannot be regained.
