Among the officials.

"Your Excellency, please stay!"

Miao He suddenly stopped Guo Feng, who was like a walking corpse in front of him, from behind.

Guo Feng continued to walk a few steps forward as if he didn't hear it, and then stopped, but didn't look back.

"Sect Master Jiang asked the subordinate officials to convey a word, as long as the adults sit in the official office for a day today, he will give an explanation to the adults early tomorrow morning."

Miao He said with his fists clenched.

Hearing this, Guo Feng didn't react at all, and after a long time, he squeezed out a voice: "Where is he now?"

"In the morning, he was still in the official office, and now he should probably be outside the city."

"Good..."

Guo Feng finally agreed, and continued to move forward.

At the same time, the Zhou family.

In the secret room, none of the three fathers and sons of the Zhou family spoke, anxiously waiting for the news from the outside, especially Zhou Wen, whose face was pale for a while, flushed for a while, and his injuries were gradually deepening because of the uncertainty of his heart.

It felt like a long time had passed, and the old butler had finally returned.

"Master Qiqi, the garrison outside the city and the proclamation office in the city have not yet sent back the news, but those few wealthy businessmen and officials have already revealed the reasons for supporting Guo Feng, no, to be precise, it should be to support Jiang An"

The old butler said respectfully.

"Those six wealthy businessmen and martial arts cultivators are not worth mentioning, the status of officials is just a donation of money, and interests have always been the first priority, in order to win them over, Guo Feng has already opened a big mouth to reduce their worship by thirty percent this year, as a result, they are still the opposite, I don't know what conditions this Jiang An offered?"

Old lady Zhou said slowly.

"Master, according to them, that Jiang An came to visit at night, directly restrained them, forced them to take poison, and then made it clear that listening to him, all their offerings this year do not need to be handed over, and Jiang An will solve them by himself, if they do not agree, they will be called to death immediately! The result is obvious, the six wealthy businessmen have chosen to cooperate with him, and they have not said a word about the other two wealthy merchants who have completely fallen to Guo Feng."

"Good means!" Hearing this, Old Lady Zhou's eyes flashed, "From one to two, from this to that, presumably in Han Yu and Wei Yitai, this person also used similar techniques to arouse their desires, of course, he will not use poison, but it must be what Han Yu and the two of them want the most, otherwise it will be impossible to impress them with a one-night relationship, what is it?"

"It's strange, then how did Jiang An bypass Guo Feng and act in private?"

Zhou Wen asked suspiciously.

"I'm afraid that Guo Feng has exposed some flaws and has been discovered by the enemy"

"Then this person is very powerful, seeing the slight knowledge, we gave him a trick to be leaderless, but he gave me a trick to draw salary! But the Haikou he boasted about may be difficult to achieve, not to mention anything else, the six wealthy merchants alone give the imperial court a year of worship is very heavy, if he does not fulfill his promise, the six great merchants are desperate, they have to bite off a piece of his meat!"

Among the six countries, gold, silver and grain are still hard currencies and belong to taxes, but for the common people, for the warriors and the imperial court, there are only two kinds of offerings in various places, one is a variety of medicinal materials, and the other is a variety of demon beast materials, these two things can make the warriors progress, more important than anything else.

Take the local wealthy merchants as an example, their offerings are all kinds of common medicinal materials, the amount is not small, more than ten or two hundred thousand catties, can be refined into a lot of pills, and the pills are one of the treasures of officials and garrisons at all levels.

Zhou Wen even expected that in order to prevent Jiang An from repenting, I am afraid that now the six wealthy merchants have begun to sell the medicinal materials that have been hoarded and should be handed over to the government, so that the raw rice can be cooked into mature rice, so that Jiang An will not regret it if he wants to.

Old Man Zhou was silent for a while, not knowing what he was thinking, and suddenly, he asked, "By the way, have you ever found out where Jiang An is?"

"According to the informant, this Jiang An went out of the city in a carriage shortly after the start of the Wumiao recall, and the target was north, and the rest is unknown."

The old butler replied.

"Didn't he run away!"

Zhou Wen subconsciously exclaimed.

"Where can he escape, and why should he escape?" Old Lady Zhou glanced at his son, his eyes burning, "However, the old man probably knows his plan, and he also knows what he promised to Han Yu and the others."

"Father, what's that?"

Zhou Wen immediately asked.

At this time, the second master of the Zhou family, who was silent, Zhou He opened his mouth and said word by word: "Big brother, haven't you forgotten that there is something north of the county seat?"

......

"Master, where are we going now?"

After leaving the city, the road became narrower and narrower, and there were fewer and fewer people, and in a lonely carriage, Xiao Ni raised his cute head and couldn't help but ask.

"Deliver on promises"

"What promise?"

"Kill, kill a lot of people"

"Oh... This braised chicken leg is delicious."

After a brief conversation, Jiang An suddenly waved his sleeves, and the carriages around him immediately fell apart.

"Let's go, there are no outsiders now, it's time to hurry with all our might, our goal is five hundred miles away, don't hurry, we won't be able to catch dinner"

After speaking, the three of them disappeared in a flash, and only the broken carriage and the lonely horse stayed in place.

Five hundred miles away is a steep and continuous mountain range, Jiang An's goal is naturally not to see the scenery, but in this mountain range, entrenched in one of the three thieves, the flood thief.

This is the same as Old Man Zhou guessed, as long as the flood thief is destroyed, there will be everything, such as the credit given to Han Yu and Wei Yitai, and a lot of property.

Of course, in the eyes of outsiders, how can the three thieves be so easy to eliminate, otherwise the government would have been destroyed a long time ago, so why wait until now?

The power of Wumiao can only cover the county level, as long as it does not leave the county seat, the government is not afraid of the assassination of thieves, and it is not afraid of strangers mixing in, because as long as Yiren dares to approach the county seat, they will immediately be perceived and locked by the power of Wumiao, which is why, the people of Fenglin County have never suspected that Jiang An is an alien identity.

However, out of the city, it is different, the strength of the martial temple can not be reached at all, can only rely on the hard power of real swords and real guns, the three thieves are all swords, and they are familiar with the terrain, they do everything, not to mention that they can press the officials and soldiers every time, but the officials and soldiers do pay a lot of price for this, so as long as it comes to killing thieves out of the city, they must be cautious.

Although the Yellow Wind Thief belongs to the three major thieves, there is a big gap with the first two, even if the Yellow Wind Thief breaks through, that is, he is a master of the early stage of cultivation, but there are two masters of the Flood Thief on the face of the Flood Thief, and one is to bear the middle stage, the other is to bear the late stage, plus the more than 2,000 strong men under his command, theoretically already have the strength to break through the county, of course, only theoretically.

When dusk fell, Jiang An and the three reached the target area and were successfully discovered by the thieves.
