Yan Weichuan's mood at this time was shattered.
Because when he was in a hurry and marched all the way, he finally arrived at Longxing County, only to learn of the chaos in the county and the sudden death of the magistrate.
"What did you say?"
Looking at the neatly arranged [Black Armor Battalion] in front of me, and the proud-looking Wu Xintai, Yan Weichuan felt like his head was buzzing and he almost fell off his horse.
County magistrate Xu Bingzheng is dead!
The chaos in the county is all an excuse. Is [Black Armor Battalion] crazy? He actually dared to attack the county government office and kill the county magistrate. Could it be that he is really rebelling?
"... Where is Li Hanlin?"
"Li Hanlin, I've never seen him." Wu Xintai denied it, which was quite arrogant. After all, he really had never seen Li Hanlin.
Yan Weichuan is completely angry. Xu Bingzheng is dead. Li Yiran is a direct descendant of the Li Family in the capital. Now he is probably dead. After all the misfortune, Li Family will be held accountable afterwards, which will definitely make him angry. If he doesn't give Li Family an explanation, Li Family will give him an explanation.
As soon as he thought of this, Yan Weichuan immediately raised his whip.
At this point, the best explanation is to take down the culprit, and in this case, even if the military camp is at war, I will be the rightful party.
"Get ready to take action..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Wu Xintai slowly take out an object from his arms, and it shone with an extremely conspicuous light under the night.
Looks a bit familiar
And this special material can glow in the dark. I also have a similar one in my hand, but only half of it. Why is this one complete...
"... Wait, wait!?"
The next second, Yan Weichuan, who finally reacted, stopped suddenly, turned around quickly, shouted loudly, and stopped the soldiers who were about to charge.
Then he looked at Wu Xintai, who had a leisurely look on his face.
"... Soldier symbols?" Yan Weichuan sounded hesitant.
Before he finished speaking, Wu Xintai couldn't wait to speak, "How do you know that I received the military order from Lord Golden Cavalry Guard yesterday?"
"This military talisman is the certificate."
"Master Wang discovered White Lotus Sect's huge conspiracy to overthrow the county, so he ordered me to go to the city to put down the rebellion. Unfortunately, White Lotus Bandits is too cruel."
"Seeing that I was under heavy siege, I actually escaped into the county government office and held the magistrate hostage. I had no choice but to lead the army to besiege the county government office. However, because I cared about the life of the magistrate, I was finally caught by White Lotus Bandits's thugs and escaped. Unfortunately, they killed and silenced me in the end..."
Wu Xintai burst into tears when he spoke, but Yan Weichuan felt his scalp numb when he heard it.
"My dear mother, this is bad..."
He immediately realized the problem. If [Black Armor Battalion] was really under military orders, then his [White-Stepping Battalion] was actually mobilizing without permission!
"Oh right."
Almost at the same time, Wu Xintai seemed to react and looked at Yan Weichuan with a curious look on his face. "Brother Yan, what do you want to do when you come all the way here Longxing County?"
"Can you show me the military deployment order?"
Wu Xintai stretched out his hand and said in a kind tone, "It's not that I don't believe you. The main thing is to go through the process. I believe Brother Yan that you can't launch troops without authorization."
Yan Weichuan:"..."
"What?"
Seeing that his old enemy was silent, Wu Xintai smiled even more happily, "Doesn't Brother Yan have military orders? No way? Then what is Brother Yan doing here?"
At this point, Wu Xintai finally said those two words.
"Rebellion?"
Rumble!
At night, the heavy rain gradually stopped, but the thunder continued. The thundering light of the forest illuminated the faces of the two people. The two armies faced each other, and the atmosphere became a bit more solemn.
"Why don't you speak?"
Wu Xintai immediately stopped smiling and said in a faint tone, "Did Brother Yan really join White Lotus Bandits, intending to rebel, and now he wants to fight with me?"
"..." Yan Weichuan said nothing.
Because he really had this crazy idea, thinking that now that the matter is over, why not just have a fight between Longxing County and [Black Armor Battalion], and whoever loses will rebel.
However, he soon regained his composure.
It's not that I don't dare to do it, it's that I can't do it. [Black Armor Battalion] is also an elite and reasonable person. If we really attack him, it will be impossible to suppress the situation.
"... Brother Wu was joking."
In the blink of an eye, the [White-Stepping Battalion] Commander-in-Chief had made a decision and immediately raised his hand. "The military order is important, how can you show it to others casually?"
"And Brother Wu has misunderstood. I am not here specifically to Longxing County. I just happened to be passing by and noticed the commotion in the county, so I came here to check on the situation. Since Brother Wu has solved the problem, I will leave now and continue to perform military duties. There is no room for a moment's delay."
After saying that, Yan Weichuan immediately turned around.
"The whole army obeys the order and goes!"
Everyone gave the order, and [White-Stepping Battalion], who was coming in all directions, could only return dejectedly. Wu Xintai did not forget to shout loudly from behind:
"Go slowly and don't send me away!"
It wasn't until [White-Stepping Battalion] was completely gone that Wu Xintai let out a long sigh of relief. After all, there were not many opportunities to suppress his enemy like this.
But then again.
"Who is that Golden Cavalry Guard? The magistrate of the county, Imperial Academy, dares to kill people, but if he kills him with his own hands, the backstage may reach the sky."
Thinking of this, Wu Xintai became more determined.
Although there are inevitably risks in joining the team, I am acting under orders this time, and the procedures are complete with evidence. The worst case scenario is to change to a more difficult location.
However, if you can take this opportunity to hug the lap of this dragon crossing the river, it is still worth it. With luck, the dragon crossing the river has skyrocketed, and your own position may also be promoted. Compared with this, with such a small risk, how many people want to take it?
At the same time, Longxing County Yanei.
The lobby was full of holes left after the arrow rain. Wang Ping stood with his hands tied, silently running Qi and Blood, practicing [Thirteen Guardians' Iron-Body Qigong].
Although Monkey believed that he had mastered this martial arts, Wang Ping knew in his heart that he had only used [A Promise Worth a Thousand Gold] to temporarily loan out this martial arts, so he practiced martial arts all the time, trying to pay it back as soon as possible, so as to restore his Debt-Free Talent.
"Little Wang."
Monkey walked into the lobby of the county government office with a helpless look on his face. "You are still too impulsive. Before you even join Attendant Hall, you have already had a bad relationship with your colleagues."
Wang Ping heard this and did not refute, but sincerely raised his hand:
"Thank you, senior, for your generosity."
Monkey bared his teeth when he heard this. Look at his appearance. He is not as vicious as when he killed Li Yiran before. At first glance, he really thought he was a good person!
The two-faced look... there will definitely be a future in the future!
Dog has a personality that is easy to break and doesn't know how to adapt. Instead, he is shameless. Today's Attendant Hall lacks such outstanding talents.
Monkey sighed in his heart and did not say more about Li Yiran. Instead, he changed the subject and said, "In the past few days, please visit the county more often."
"Oh?" Wang Ping raised his eyes. "What happened?"
"It's nothing."
Monkey waved his hand and said, "Something wrong has been discovered in the county. It was done by Xu Bingzheng when he was in office. We are preparing to investigate one by one."
"Originally, I didn't want you to intervene, but you killed Li Yiran and caused such a big incident. If you join Attendant Hall before you have done anything, I'm afraid you will be made things difficult for me, so I asked you to help. I will give you a credit when the report is presented afterwards, which will save you a lot of effort."
"Don't worry, with your martial arts there won't be any risks."
"... Thank you, sir."
Wang Ping bowed and saluted again. How could he not understand that Monkey meant to let him take the credit? It is indeed the most benevolent thing to take care of him.
"Well, you are indeed not stupid."
Monkey saw that Wang Ping understood what he meant, and a smile appeared on his face, knowing that the other party had accepted the favor, and his work was not in vain.
After sending Monkey away, Wang Ping turned around and went to the backyard.
Xu Bingzheng obviously put a lot of thought into it during his lifetime. The backyard of the county government office was very spacious, and there was even a tea pavilion, and a jujube tree was planted next to the tea pavilion.
At this moment, there was a woman in white clothes practicing martial arts under the jujube tree. She danced a long sword with great force. The silver light around her body was dazzling and water could not splash in. It was completely different from a few months ago. The rising Qi and Blood made that beautiful face even more charming and charming.
The woman is Madam Su.
Wang Ping stood there and did not interrupt the other party. Instead, he waited patiently for Madam Su to finish the sword dance, and then he clapped gently, attracting the beauty's sideways glance.
"After three days of separation, you should look at each other with admiration. Madam, you are still victorious."
While Wang Ping was praising, he took out the silk scarf he had prepared beforehand and walked forward, gently wiping the fine sweat rolling down Madam Su's nose.
Madam Su's face turned redder, the sweat on her nose was gone, but her beautiful eyes were sparkling.
"Where's Lao Liu?" Wang Ping asked.
"Still recovering in there." Madam Su pointed to the wing in the backyard and said softly, "He's not awake yet and it's still early. Why don't we practice some martial arts?"
Practicing Qigong? [Knocking on the Immortal Gate]?
Wang Ping originally wanted to refuse, but then he thought about it. He was in a hurry to repay the loan, so it would be a good time to use [Knocking Immortal Sect] to speed up the progress.
"Okay, then it's up to you, Madam."
"It's not hard..."
--After a while, Wang Ping gently patted Madam Su's head, ending this session [Knock on the Immortal Sect]. For a moment, I just felt like a blowout of inspiration.
"I'll come here a few more times in the evening, and with the help of my Perfectly Sealed True Body and Spirit Sense, I'm afraid I can pay off the loan in two or three days, allowing [A Promise Worth a Thousand Gold] to completely recover. At that time, I can also use it on the more advanced Inner-Force Cultivation-Body Diagram to maintain my Peerless Borrowed Talent personality."
Wang Ping is silently thinking about the future.
On the other side, Madam Su swallowed and held up her hair, then stood up gracefully and took Wang Ping into the backyard room.
"..."
On the bed in the wing room, Liu Ye was no longer as embarrassed as when he was in the prison van. The Life Essence that Wang Ping instilled in him made him recover incredibly quickly.
However, he seemed to be in a very low mood. When he saw Wang Ping coming in, he sighed, "Brother Wang..."
Wang Ping immediately understood what was happening and comforted him, "It's okay, Old Liu. I know your heart is good, but your ability is just not good enough."
Liu Ye:"..."
After a short silence, Liu Ye cheered up. After all, he had long realized his own mediocrity and thought about it, it was actually just such a trivial matter.
"I owe you this life."
Liu Ye looked solemn and said in a deep voice, "If you have any instructions in the future, please tell me at any time. Even if you ask me to return this life to you, I will not hesitate."
Wang Ping didn't take these words to heart. After all, he didn't expect anything in return when he rescued people, so he just sat on the edge of the bed and said casually, "There seems to be something wrong in the county recently. It was the dog official who did it. Old Liu, you came to the county early. Did you find anything?"
His original intention was just to find a topic.
Unexpectedly, Liu Ye actually thought about it for a while after listening to it, and then said surprisingly, "Indeed, I heard the guard chatting in the county jail."
"... Oh?"
As soon as these words came out, Wang Ping immediately sat up straight. Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected gain, and he immediately said seriously, "Tell me in detail, what is it specifically?"
"Strictly speaking, it's two things."
Liu Ye thought for a while and said in a low voice, "The first thing I discovered was that I grew up in Longxing County and worked as a clerk in the county government for half my life."
"To put it bluntly, I can tell at a glance which stone has been moved in the county... So I discovered something was wrong when I was at Longxing County before. Some good people's residences in the city were sealed, but the seals were very strange. They were not official approvals, but ghost symbols."
"Ghost talisman?" Wang Ping frowned.
Liu Ye quickly explained, "It's just a bunch of patterns that I can't tell apart. They seem to be words, but they don't seem to be. And looking at them for a long time makes me feel a little nervous."
Wang Ping frowned even deeper. "... Where's the second one?"
"The second thing was said by the policeman who was guarding the county jail... it was about a policeman who was ordered to recuperate at home, named Lin Sheng. Brother Wang should still remember it."
"Ah..."
Wang Ping quickly dug out this name from his memory. "During the siege of Former Village, he was forced to take leave and go home because he questioned Chen Haoyan?"
"That's right." Liu Ye nodded. "In fact, it's just dismissal."
"He is a courageous young man, but unfortunately he is not experienced in the world. He actually speaks justice in public affairs and refuses to repent. That's why he was dismissed."
At this point, Liu Ye was still a little embarrassed, and after a pause he continued, "The Lin Household where he lives is a large and good family in the county. But suddenly one day, I heard the guards chatting in the county jail, saying that the magistrate personally ordered the county government to seal up Lin Household's mansion."
"It's the kind of ghost-drawing seal that's used."
"And what's different from other sealed places is that the magistrate specifically asked the guards to arrest several people from the county jail and throw them into Lin Household's mansion together."
"Then... there was no sound."
Speaking of this, Liu Ye also seemed a little frightened. "It is said that those people lost their voices after being thrown into Lin Family Estate, and disappeared together with Lin Sheng."
"The guards said it had become a haunted house."
"Not only Lin Household, but all the houses with ghost-painted seals have become haunted houses with no way out. The police patrols will deliberately avoid them."
"..."
Having said that, Wang Ping couldn't help but become curious. What will the county magistrate Xu Bingzheng and the people behind him do in the county?
Ghostly painted talisman seal, cannibalistic haunted house.
Intuition told Wang Ping that there must be a big secret behind this, and it was probably the reason why [Peace Scripture] repeatedly let himself reopen in Longxing County.
