Since ancient times, Chinese people had a habit, and that was to watch the show.
At this moment, there were more and more people who came to watch the show because of Monkey's wild laughter. Xiao Wen and the others were completely surrounded by the onlookers.
Xiao Wen felt that if someone was shocked to the end, they would probably be in danger due to lack of oxygen due to the concentration of the crowd.
However, when they saw Zhuge Liang standing among the crowd and being stared at by countless pairs of eyes without a trace of fear, they couldn't help but reveal a smile.
"It looks like Xiao Liang was born with the ability to speak generously in front of so many people!" Truly worthy of being a person who is able to speak out and fight against the group of scholars. Even though you have not grown up, you possess outstanding talent. " Xiao Wen sighed.
In fact, as a modern man, Xiao Wen's character was not considered ostentatious.
Although he was able to speak from the podium when he was in school. But if he had been on the playground, giving a speech in front of hundreds of people, he would have made a joke.
In his eyes, those students who were able to enter the crowd on the stage were just like monsters.
After recalling the past, Xiao Wen thought back to his past.
"In the past, the people of the Hu Jia Village had died a great number of times. "I, County Governor Darkhan, have gathered the descendants of all the noble families to go forth and fight so that I can protect the hundreds of thousands of citizens of Cloud City behind me!"
"Although my Mr Xiao's eldest brother is worth a new marriage, he has never shunned the responsibility of protecting his family and country. He was armed and ready, and together with his fellow soldiers, he went forth to kill the enemy. I once heard from my family that the battle had left a trail of blood and bones in the sky. Among the twenty people in the Cloud County, one of them died in the same month. "
"But just when the situation in Cloud County is in danger, where are you, Monkey? You eat the rice grown by the big men and the peasants, and you wear the cloth woven by the big men and women, but you do not fulfill the duty of a big man to go to war and kill the enemy and protect the country. Instead, he had nothing to do all day to harm the village. And now, you have slandered the relatives of the fallen soldiers. How will you meet the millions of citizens who have perished on the battlefield in the past few years in the Cloud County? "
Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, almost everyone's eyes turned red.
They looked at the monkey. Clearly, their anger had shifted to this guy.
"If I were to die on the battlefield, I'm afraid that this man will come and harm my family." The brawny man who had stopped Zhuge Liang earlier said as if he had thought of something.
On the side, a tall and muscular man echoed, "To die to protect your family, there is nothing to be afraid of. The most frightening thing is that even though I've died, there are still people who have come to harm my family. "
"We absolutely cannot let such people remain in this world!"
"Yes!" If we don't kill him, it will be hard for us to let the dead rest in peace. "
The mood of the people is contagious.
When the first person was infected with Zhuge Liang and made a sound, more and more people were angered by the monkey's actions.
Some of the monkeys they railed against even tried to kill him.
However, no one dared to step forward to kill the monkey.
Clank, clank, clank, clank!
The sound of a gong suddenly rang out from outside the crowd. Everyone immediately stopped their actions and turned silent.
Following which, a young voice sounded from outside the crowd.
"Send out the city guards. Stand still and don't get crowded!"
It's the City Defense Army!
Hearing this, the commoners all stopped their crowded movements.
In a place like the Cloud Arena, a position like the City Defense Army had a high death rate. However, their power was enormous as well.
Sometimes, the city guards of the Cloud County would even overstep their authority to deal with matters that should be under the jurisdiction of the yamen constables.
Other than the fact that people from the city's defense guard were about to step in and manage the city's security, it sounded rather unfathomable from other places. But in the other clouds, it was a normal operation.
"What are you doing?" As soon as the city guards entered, they angrily asked Zhuge Liang, who was standing in the middle of the square.
He had just patrolled the area when he saw many civilians surrounding the area.
In the clouds was the land of the four battles, the people were valiant, and the issue of public security was also very sensitive.
Seeing so many people gathered here, the guards of the city guards were surprised and angry at the same time.
Although Zhuge Liang appeared to be unperturbed under the watchful eyes of the crowd, that was under the circumstance that no one dared to threaten him.
It was obvious that this soldier's tone was filled with anger and threat, yet he was still not under Zhuge Liang's control.
He looked at the guard, trembling and unable to speak.
"General, we are executing justice!" Seeing that Zhuge Liang couldn't speak, Xiao Wen helplessly sighed and went up to explain.
"Justice?" The soldier looked suspiciously at Xiao Wen and asked: "Where is the justice in this place that you need to carry out?"
"General, look." Xiao Wen pointed at the monkey and said, "He just insulted the soldiers who had died all these years, as well as the relatives of the soldiers. I fear that the soldiers will not rest in peace if they learn of it from the bottom of their springs. So I plan to kill this man to pay my respects to the souls of the fallen. "
"If you don't believe me, you can ask the people around you. They saw it too."
"Yes, that's right! "Just now, this fellow was insulting the fallen soldiers. I can bear witness to it."
"I'm a witness too!"
"Bring me too!"
There was no one in the audience who didn't want the monkey to die. Therefore, they all stood out, indicating that what the monkey did just now was indeed an insult to the fallen soldiers.
Hearing this, the soldiers of the city guards understood the severity of the problem.
In the Cloud County, almost every family had a family member who died in battle. It was normal for brothers and sisters to die or fathers to die or sons to die.
Therefore, maintaining the honor of the dead soldiers was the political correct thing to do in the Cloud County.
Even He Heshen did not dare to openly insult the dignity of a dead soldier. After all, there were many rangers in the Darkhan Kingdom who liked to kill officials who had lost their virtue.
If Heishen dared to commit suicide like that, he would probably be chopped to death in the street the next day.
Therefore, the city guards' vigilance was retracted.
Their leader looked at the monkey and said, "Do you have any last words? If there are parents and children in the family, can someone be entrusted with the care of the family? "
"None …" After Monkey finished talking, he was stunned for a moment before realizing that these were his last words.
Immediately, he scrambled to the soldier's feet and hugged his thigh as he wailed, "My lord, spare me! I just said that he had an affair with my family's sister-in-law, but that little bastard actually went along with the plan and insulted me, insulting my dead soldier. How could I have the guts! "
The current him was just like when he was beaten down by Xiao Wen and prepared to be castrated.
Who would have thought that just now, he would still be so arrogant like he was sure of Xiao Wen.
At this moment, Monkey was already on Xiao Wen's death list. How could Xiao Wen let this guy get away with it?
Thus, he borrowed a great sword from a big fellow beside him, unsheathed his sword, and quickly and ruthlessly stabbed the monkey's neck.
"You …" Monkey stared with wide eyes. He felt that his life was rapidly slipping away, but in the end, he could not say anything.
Monkey, pawn.
"General, sinners usually say they are innocent when they face punishment. To truly determine whether or not it was true, it still depended on the opinions of the commoners. General, do not listen to the words of this lowly person! "
Looking at the now lifeless monkey, the city guards helplessly looked at Xiao Wen.
After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Find a few people to deal with his corpse." On a hot day, the body will soon stink. "
Just a ranger.
As far as he was concerned, a ranger would die just like that. Furthermore, he was a travelling adventurer who had offended the masses.
