may have felt a little contempt in Ji Rong's eyes, and Ishihara felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

He clenched his fists and said: "I am not talented, but I have surrounded and suppressed the black tiger thieves in Kunyang several times, and I have also stabbed dozens of black tiger thieves ......"

"Oh?" Ji Rong's eyes lit up slightly when he heard this.

Killed dozens of black tiger thieves? Then this kid is a warrior!

Thinking of this, Ji Rong immediately became a little interested, and asked with a smile: "I never thought that Ji Mou was blind...... Shi Zhutou, I don't know how much you know about the black tiger thieves in the city? ”

"The Black Tiger Thief in the city?" Ishihara was stunned, and immediately said: "The black tiger thief in the city, in order to hide his identity as a thief, does not act in the name of the black tiger thief, and is relatively peaceful, but he does know some ......."

Ji Rong immediately asked, "Very good!" Then let me ask you, where are the black tiger thieves in the city? ”

Ishihara didn't think about it and said: "If you want to talk about the henchmen of the Black Tiger Thief, the Black Tiger Yishe is the first to be recommended, followed by the workshop and ...... in the south of the city."

Before he finished his words, he saw Ji Rong nodding and said with a smile: "Okay, then go to the Black Tiger Yishe first!" ”

With that, he lifted his feet and walked out of the house.

Ma Gai also followed, and after taking a few steps, he turned around and saw Ishihara and several other county officials following him, so he said, "Ishihara, you guys stay in the county office." ”

"Lieutenant Ma?"

Ishihara and several other county officials looked at Ma Gai in confusion and looked at each other.

I didn't understand why Ma Gai let them stay in the county office, Ishihara frowned slightly and said: "County Lieutenant Ma, I hope to go with you, as well as with that Ji Biao general, and do my best......"

As soon as the words fell, the rest of the county officials also spoke in agreement.

"You ......"

Ma Gai frowned slightly, and was about to speak, but he saw Ji Rong not far away and said with a smile: "County Lieutenant Ma, why are you stopping these people?" ”

It turned out that Ji Rong over there also noticed the situation here.

Seeing Ji Rong speak, Ma Gai didn't want to stop him anymore, only to see him frowning and glancing at Ishihara and the others, and said with a cold expression: "That...... Whatever you want. ”

"Captain Ma?"

Ishihara gave Ma Gai a strange look.

He came out with a feeling, and Magai didn't seem to want them to follow.

About half an hour later, Ji Rong took more than 20 soldiers with him, Ma Gai and Ishihara to the door of the Black Tiger House.

At this time, it was the time of the meal, and there was a long queue outside the righteous house, and the local people who were waiting for the meal all looked curiously at Ji Rong, Ma Gai, Ishihara and others who were standing in the distance.

At this time, Shi Cheng pointed to the black tiger house in the distance and said to Ji Rong: "General Ji Bi, this is the black tiger house that the humble post said, as far as the humble job knows, the steward in the righteous house is mixed with the henchmen of the black tiger thieves, these black tiger thieves buy the hearts of the people in the name of the righteous house, but secretly instigate people to defect to its cottage, in the past, the humble office had taken some colleagues to catch one of them, tortured and tortured, but in the end, this righteous house had a good reputation in the city, and had no choice but to release it...... But I can assure you, there must be a black tiger thief among them! ”

"Hmm." Ji Rong nodded slightly, and said casually: "Wait for my people to come first." ”

"Someone who is a general?" Ishihara was stunned.

It seemed that he didn't have a bad impression of Ishihara, Ji Rong said with a smile: "After getting the permission of Liu County's order, I have sent someone to summon five hundred soldiers into the city, and when my people arrive, we will do ......."

"Oh."

Ishihara nodded in realization.

Not long after, Ji Rong recruited 500 soldiers into the city, and under the guidance of passers-by, they came to the street in front of the righteous house.

It has to be said that the sudden appearance of hundreds of fully armored regular soldiers on this street not only caused many people in the city to follow and watch, but also made the local people in front of the righteous house feel bad for the long queue, and some of them quietly slipped away.

After a while, the leader of the general walked up to Ji Rong and saluted with his fists: "General." ”

Ji Rong nodded, pointed to the Black Tiger Righteous House not far away, and ordered: "Command the soldiers, but all the stewards and officials of that righteous house will be arrested." ”

"Yes!" The general nodded.

At the sound of the order, hundreds of soldiers poured into the Black Tiger Righteous House.

Ishihara stood far away, but he could also hear the sound of scolding and crackling as if something was breaking from inside the house.

Just as he was stunned, a group of people ran out of the righteous house and fled in panic.

And the people who were queuing up outside the righteous house also fled far away at this time, but they still did not go far, standing in the distance, looking at the black tiger righteous house with puzzled eyes.

A moment later, a soldier came to Ji Rong, clenched his fists and said, "The general, the stewards and officials in the house have all been subdued. ”

"Good!"

Ji Rong nodded and walked towards the righteous house.

At this time, Ishihara also took the opportunity to follow Ji Rong to the door of the righteous house and glanced twice at the door.

At this moment, the Yisha was in a mess, the low tables that had been neatly placed were pushed into a mess, and the ground was littered with trampled rice and vegetables, as well as broken bowls and pots, and overturned rice buckets.

In the middle of the room, a group of stewards and officials in the house knelt on the ground with their heads crossed.

At this moment, a woman's inquiry suddenly came from behind him: "This ...... Bad master? ”

Ishihara turned around and saw a woman standing not far away, with a little girl beside her.

The woman timidly asked, "Poor master, is this righteous house...... Is something wrong? ”

Ishihara Masaseki replied, "This house is related to the Black Tiger Thief, so it's ......," he said, looking up and down at the woman and child in front of him, and asked, "...... you Are you here to eat? ”

"Uh-huh......" The woman bit her lip and nodded with a hint of embarrassment and shyness.

Ishihara turned his head to look at the mess in the house, at the rice and vegetables that had been trampled on by the soldiers, and then at the mother and daughter, and suddenly didn't know what to say.

At this time, the little girl beside the woman also said timidly: "Mother...... I'm hungry, can't it be our turn to eat? ”

"This ......"

The woman looked at Ishihara, at Yoshisha, and at the little girl beside her, with a look similar to Ishihara's on her face, not knowing how to answer her daughter.

She bit her lip and plucked up the courage to ask Ishihara: "Poor master, if you don't mind, the folk woman wants to ask, is this righteous sacrifice serious?" It...... Can it still be opened? ”

"I'm afraid ......," Ishihara barely managed to squeeze out a few smiles.

As if she understood something, the woman's face turned gloomy, she touched her daughter's head, bowed to Ishihara, and then turned away.

Even though the mother and daughter were far away, Ishihara could still faintly hear the little girl's cry of hunger.

For some reason, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

At this moment, Ji Rong's voice came from behind him: "County Lieutenant Ma, these people are temporarily locked up in the prison cell of the county government, is it okay?" ”

Ishihara turned his head and saw Ma Gai nodding slightly with an expressionless face.

As if noticing Ishihara's gaze, Magai glanced at the latter.

Somehow, Ishihara subconsciously avoided Ma Gai's gaze.

"Take them all!"

With an order, the stewards and officials in the Black Tiger Righteous House were forcibly escorted by those soldiers and walked out of the Righteous House.

At this time, the neighborhood was surrounded by the local people, who were afraid of the well-armoured regular soldiers, and only dared to whisper.

"Did you do something?"

"Who knows......"

"I heard that it was a collusion with the Black Tiger Thief......"

"Huh? That rumor is still circulating? ”

"These stewards in the righteous house are good people, although there are a few ...... who seem to be quite fierce."

"Alas, the food at the righteous house is actually quite fragrant......"

"What ...... now?"

"Where did these soldiers come from? Why did you break into the righteous house and arrest people? Doesn't the county government care? ”

"Shhhh

"Why doesn't Captain Ma care about those soldiers?"

The people whispered.

Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted, "Why do you soldiers break into the righteous house and arrest people?" The stewards of the righteous house have not done anything! ”

"Are there any of the Black Tiger Thieves?"

Ji Rong's eyes swept away, and he immediately ordered the soldiers to search the location where the voice came from.

After receiving the order, several sergeants immediately pushed through the crowd to find the person who shouted, but the boy who shouted seemed to run very fast, and disappeared after shouting.

But this shout seemed to ignite the dissatisfaction of the nearby people, and gradually, the people surrounding the neighborhood began to denounce the behavior of these soldiers to arrest people at will.

Suddenly, one of the soldiers grabbed one of them.

That person Shi Yuan recognized that it was Liu San, a mason on Pomegranate Street, and when he saw this, he hurriedly said to Ji Rong: "General, that person is not a black tiger thief. ”

Ji Rong glanced at Ishihara, frowned and said, "Are you sure?" Then why do you want to speak for the people of the Black Tiger Righteous House? ”

Ishihara was about to explain that among the stewards of the Black Tiger Lodge who was escorted by the soldiers, one of them spoke: "I don't know what the Black Tiger Thief is not a Black Tiger Thief, but this person is indeed not a person from my Righteous Lodge......"

As he spoke, he raised his hands bound by ropes and waved towards the crowd around him: "Thank you folks and elders for defending us, but for now, I still hope that you don't have to defend us, so as not to be misunderstood, I believe that the county government will eventually return me to a clean ......."

"Give back your innocence! You're a fucking black tiger thief!'

Ishihara looked at the person and cursed in his heart, because he recognized at a glance that this person was the current chief steward of the Black Tiger Yishe, and Ma Hong, who was once one of the 'Nine Thieves of Yingshan'.

But seeing this guy being guarded by a group of soldiers with his head held high amid the cheers of the people around him, Ishihara opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything.

"Let it go."

Probably seeing that the mason really didn't look like a bandit, Ji Rong waved his hand and ordered the soldier to release him.

Under Ji Rong's order, the person who was mistakenly arrested was released, and the rest of the stewards of the Black Tiger Thieves were all escorted to the prison cells in the county.

The Black Tiger Righteous House was seized so easily.

As one of the strongholds of the Black Tiger Thieves in the city, the Black Tiger Righteous House was destroyed, which was obviously a good thing, but looking at the pointing of the people around, Ishihara was somehow not happy.

At this time, Ji Rong turned his head and asked Ishihara, "What about the next place, Shi Zhutou?" ”

A little complicated color flashed in Ishihara's eyes, and he said in a tangled way: "The city ...... The Brotherhood Workshop in the South of the City ......"

"Good!"

Ji Rong nodded, waved his hand and ordered: "Everyone obey the order, immediately go to the Brotherhood Workshop in the south of the city!" ”

"Yes!" All the soldiers responded with a drink.

At this time, in the attic of a nearby house, Zhao Yu stood at the window, quietly watching the commotion below with a little inexplicable smile.

Although he conspired with Liu Bi and Ma Gai to set up a trick, he was also quite surprised to see that Ji Biao General below hit him headlong......
