I was a conman in the Ming Dynasty.

Chapter 226 Bloody Feud

Chapter 226 Blood Feud

"Hahaha..." Lin Qing laughed, pointing at Wang Wenzhou and saying, "Wang the Fool, to be honest, I really admire you! Your mouth is truly amazing! You can fool so many people into willingly dying for you!"

Lin Qing pointed at the 15 sedan chair carriers and cursed, "You bunch of idiots! You're fucking stupid! Wang Shazi sold you out, and you're still foolishly helping him count the money? Is he Wang Qingtian? Is he an honest official? Please, don't be stupid! He has a bunch of beautiful wives and concubines at home, and millions of taels of silver hidden in his house! Is he a righteous and upright official?"

Wang Wenzhou blushed slightly at Lin Qing's words. He stood up, pointed his sword at Lin Qing, and said, "Lin Qing, I am a dying man, and you still slander my reputation? What's the point? I only killed your grandfather. What kind of person was your grandfather? He was just a bandit who killed and robbed! I am here to rid the people of a scourge!"

"Go to hell!" Lin Qing was furious and swung his broadsword at the attacker.

"Bang!" Wang Wenzhou's sword was knocked away by Lin Qing.

Enraged, Lin Qing slashed at Wang Wenzhou's neck with his knife again.

Zhao Zhengxi leaped up and stood in front of Wang Wenzhou.

"Pfft!" Lin Qing swung his broadsword down, and Zhao Zhengxi's arm flew off.

Zhao Zhengxi originally worked on a construction site, but later, when the sedan chair carriers' battalion expanded, he was accepted into the battalion. He would never forget that day when it was raining heavily, and Wang Wenzhou braved the rain to visit him.

He knew that standing in front of Lord Wang might mean certain death, but to die for Lord Wang would be a death without regret.

"Bang!" Zhao Zhengxi fell to the ground, his vision went black, and he fainted.

Wang Wenzhou frowned as he looked at Zhao Zhengxi lying on the ground, blood gushing from the wound on his arm.

Wang Wenzhou waved behind him and said, "Quick! Stop the bleeding!"

Two soldiers from the labor camp rushed over and helped Zhao Zhengxi tighten the bandage on his wound.

Wang Wenzhou held a sword to his neck and said with a bitter smile, "Lin Qing, you've won. Can't I just die myself?"

"Haha!" Lin Qing laughed loudly, "Not bad! If you commit suicide, Wang Shazi, I'll kill all your men!"

"Damn it! I'll fight you to the death!" Wang Wenzhou swung his sword and charged forward.

"Haha! Wang Shazi, your move is wrong! Look!" Lin Qing kicked Wang Wenzhou in the waist, and Wang Wenzhou immediately fell face-first into the dirt again.

Lin Qing was like a cat catching a mouse; after catching the mouse, he didn't kill it immediately, but instead played with it until it died.

Despite the excruciating pain, Wang Wenzhou got up and swung his sword at the enemy once more.

"Smack!" Lin Qing slapped Wang Wenzhou across the face with his broadsword. The blow was so hard that a wide red mark appeared on Wang Wenzhou's face. The blade cut through his skin, and in no time, Wang Wenzhou's face was covered in blood.

Wang Wenzhou was very helpless. Damn it, he wanted to die but didn't dare to, and he wanted to live but couldn't. It was so frustrating!

"Husband! I'm here!" a loud shout suddenly rang out.

"Swish, swish, swish..." A dense barrage of arrows flew over.

Seeing the situation was bad, Lin Qing deflected the arrows while retreating.

Wang Wenzhou turned around and saw the ugly monster—no, wait!—the heroine was leading the way, riding a tall horse and galloping towards him.

After a volley of arrows, only a little over 100 of the more than 200 bandits remained.

Zhang Shifang waved his hand, and his guards sped towards the remaining bandits. The 15 labor camp soldiers also quickly picked up their weapons and charged forward. They wanted revenge for their fallen comrades!

With tears in his eyes, Wang Wenzhou looked at the heroine with deep affection and said, "Baby, I knew you would come to save me!"

"Husband!" Zhang Shifang was so moved she almost cried. For the first time, her husband didn't call her "ugly monster" but affectionately called her "baby."

"Get off the horse!" Wang Wenzhou said impatiently, "Baby, this is outrageous! Your belly is so big, how can you ride a horse? What if you miscarry?"

"Mmm!" Zhang Shifang smiled happily and obediently dismounted.

Wang Wenzhou grabbed the heroine and kissed her.

"Ugh..." Wang Wenzhou gagged.

Wang Wenzhou was very embarrassed. He said apologetically, "Baby, don't be angry. I was fighting with someone just now, and my stomach is a little upset."

Zhang Shifang was both amused and exasperated. "My husband, it's just that he's a little ugly!"

"Baby, give me another kiss!" Wang Wenzhou was so excited! He had escaped a desperate situation! In this critical moment, he still had to rely on his own baby. Although the baby was a little ugly, she was still his beloved baby!

"Uncle, did we win? I want a kiss too!" Gao Guilan jumped down from the carriage at this moment.

Zhang Shifang turned to look at Gao Guilan, a bitter smile playing on her lips. Her sister Liu Rushi was right; her husband, that rascal, slept wherever he went, requiring constant surveillance. The moment her sisters were away, he'd slept with another pretty young girl.

"Little Lanlan, let me introduce you. This is your older sister. Call her 'sister' quickly," Wang Wenzhou said with a smile.

"Hello, sister!" Gao Guilan said obediently.

"Uncle, I want a kiss too." Although Gao Guilan was a bit naive, she could tell that the pregnant woman was probably Lei Gongzi's wife, and she had to explain her relationship with Lei Gongzi to the pregnant woman.

"Little Lanlan, be good!" Wang Wenzhou quickly kissed her.

Uncle? Zhang Shifang smiled wryly. This guy of hers was really unreliable. You want the little girl to call you uncle, and you want her to call me sister? This is ridiculous!

Zhang Shifang looked up and saw Lin Mu riding a horse galloping towards them, his broadsword raised, about to strike Wang Wenzhou on the head.

"Husband, watch out!" Zhang Shifang remained calm in the face of danger and kicked her husband, who was passionately kissing a young girl, away.

"Swish!" Zhang Shifang drew his sword and slashed at Lin Mu.

Before Lin Mu could react, his right hand, holding the knife, was severed. Enduring the excruciating pain, Lin Mu kicked Zhang Shifang in the stomach.

"Bang!" Zhang Shifang fell to the ground, and Lin Mu also fell off his horse.

Wang Wenzhou scrambled to his feet and ran over, cradling Zhang Shifang's head in his arms. He asked, "Baby, are you alright?"

Zhang Shifang felt a warm rush on her thigh. She looked down and saw that her water had broken. But when she looked up, she saw Lin Mu rushing towards her again.

Zhang Shifang quickly got up, pushed Wang Wenzhou, and said, "Husband, you should leave quickly!"

Wang Wenzhou also noticed Lin Mu rushing over. He quickly nodded and shamelessly said, "Baby, I'm leaving this to you. I'll go get reinforcements!"

Wang Wenzhou had only run two steps when he felt his face burning. His wife, who was six months pregnant, was fighting desperately with someone, and he, a grown man, was running away!

No way! I'm not that cowardly. With that thought, Wang Wenzhou picked up a large knife, turned around, and rushed back.

Zhang Shifang's water broke, rendering her completely unable to fight. She could only parry Lin Mu's attacks.

Lin Mu, whose right hand had been severed and who was wielding a knife in his left hand, was also greatly weakened in combat, which is why the two fought to a standstill.

From the nearby jungle, Shuiyu cried out anxiously, "Miss, give the order to charge! My husband is about to be killed!"

Liu Rushi's face was cold and stern as she said in a cold voice, "Don't worry, the archers have already aimed at the thief. If he tries to harm my husband, he will be shot dead immediately!"

"Why?" Shuiyu asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Hmph!" Liu Rushi said fiercely, "The hatred for killing one's mother is irreconcilable!"
