Chapter 19: Capture the county seat
"You people, don't move, be careful that I will shoot you too." Li Yun turned his gun and pointed it at the dozen or so officials.
"It turns out that you are the demon man from yesterday, who killed two people with unknown things. Now that you have killed the county commander and the master, the court will want you, and you had better be arrested." A group of fast-catching bosses caught their heads, holding knives, and pointed at Li Yun tremblingly.
Li Yun directly used his mana to close the door of the county office, and slowly walked to the big chair of the county order and sat down.
"The court wants me? Now the emperor Lao'er is fortunate to be able to save his life. And they want to kill me, joke".
In the world of A Chinese Ghost Story, the background of the times is very similar to that of the late Ming Dynasty in Li Yunyuan's world, and the biggest difference is that there were gods and Buddhas in this world. Now there are only a few little demons and scattered cultivators left, as well as some demon hunting sects. The world is now rampant with demons, the government is corrupted, the people advocate courage and ruthlessness, and ethics and morality have basically collapsed.
"Since you threatened me just now, I will threaten you as well. I call this a courtesy exchange," Li Yun leaned on a chair with his pistol propped up his head.
"Surrender to me and become my subordinate. In that case, I will spare you and your family their lives. Otherwise, I'll kill you now, and then all the relatives you know.
Think about it, how about it"?
"Demon, even if we die, we won't surrender to you," the head catcher said hatefully
"That is, if the court knows about it, we will be exterminated by the Nine Clans." The catcher who was standing on the side trembled and echoed.
"Yes, yes"
"Well, we won't surrender", for a moment there was a buzz of people in the lobby. It's like a crusade against Li Yun.
"Bang bang", two more shots rang out
The hats of the two catchers with wooden sticks were knocked off.
"Ahh Ahh Everyone hugged their heads in fright and begged for mercy, and suddenly fell silent.
"If you don't surrender to me, I'll kill you and everyone you know, isn't it like being exterminated by the Nine Clans?
After surrendering to me, you yourself are actually very clear, the imperial court can't control so far now, as long as the surrounding counties don't report, what will happen to you? And with me, just you ordinary people, it's a rookie.
Everyone, think about it, I'll give you another quarter of an hour."
"Wang Zhutou, what should I do? You give an idea, what do we do now"?
"yes, yes! Wang Zhutou, you are the most calm on weekdays, hurry up and think of a way! ”
A group of people hunted quickly, wanting him to come up with an idea
"Alas, until now, it can only be from him." Wang Zhutou sighed, clenched his hands into fists, and knelt on one knee
"See Adults",
Seeing that Wang Zhutou chose to surrender, he also followed suit.
"Hello adults, good adults"
"Hahaha, you are wise, get up!"
"Master Xie"
More than a dozen catchers quickly picked up the wooden sticks that had fallen on the ground and stood on both sides of the lobby.
"Just now I heard that your name is Wang Zhutou. When I first came in, you persuaded me, and now the catchers trust you, and it seems that you are usually a good person, otherwise I would have killed you when you opposed me just now."
"Thank you for not killing".
"Since you have obeyed me, I will give you something in return. As a reward for this time.
You are a group of temporary workers hired by the county government, and your origins are all untouchables, and you are not allowed to study or take exams within three generations of lowly industries.
I have decided to erase your untouchables. From now on, you will be on the same status as ordinary people, and you will no longer be untouchables. ”
In his previous life, under the influence of the Internet, Li Yun also knew the importance of beating and giving a sweet date to eat
"Lord Xie, Lord Xie".
"The subordinates are determined to do the work of the whole horse".
The crowd hunted quickly, like crazy, cheered and showed their loyalty to Li Yun.
"Okay, Wang Zhutou, you tell me about the current situation in the county."
"Except for the magistrate you just killed,
There are also the wardens who are responsible for handling the paperwork of the county, because our county is an ordinary county seat, and the wardens of the county, like the magistrates, are all villains who only know how to bend the law for bribes and collude with the same stream.
The education of the county is responsible for the education and discipline of the teacher, but in this troubled era, the county has long been out of the teaching position.
Then there are some miscellaneous duties such as patrols, grooms, etc
This county is an ordinary county town without a permanent army, only some militia supported by the people's taxes, but the one you killed was disbanded, and then he embezzled the taxes paid by the people.
It seems that the situation in Guobei County is a mess, and he has to spend some energy on reorganizing the government affairs of Guobei County.
"Wang Zhutou, you led a few of your subordinates to trick the warden here, I have something to do."
"It's an adult."
After a while, I heard a person scolding, and I could hear this person's shouting and scolding outside the county office.
"What did Li Dapang call me for? Didn't he know that I had just married a concubine? How can I have time to pay attention to him"?
"Yes, you're right, but I don't know what's going on. It may be a matter of urgency. You'd better go"! Wang Zhutou apologized on the side
I could only hear the warden shouting as soon as he entered the lobby
"What did Fat Li call me"?
"You're not Li Pan, what did Li Fatzi do? Why are you sitting there"?
Before Li Yun could answer, Wang Zhutou directly ordered his subordinates
"Brothers, take it for me"
"Yes"
Then he saw the catcher come forward and tie the warden with a rope.
"It's the other way around, do you know that I'm a warden? You guys are going to rebel, where is Fat Li? Call me and I'll make you look good in a minute."
"Master Fei, can't you see the form clearly? Who do you see lying in front of you? And let us look good, you can't protect yourself now."
"Ahh You actually killed the magistrate, aren't you afraid that the court will ask you for the crime? When the time comes, punish your nine clans, and let me go."
"Okay, don't yell here, don't end up in the same situation." Li Yun looked at the warden and said threateningly.
"I'm going to make you write down all the details of everything you manage, or I'll kill you right away."
"Delusional, I won't promise you if I die, it's better to let me go quickly, otherwise you won't be able to eat and walk around." The warden, who could not distinguish the form, still threatened Li Yun
"Hehe, Wang Zhutou will give me 30 big boards"
"Yes, sir
Brothers, give me 30 boards, harder".
"Good class". Then I saw the crowd catch you, and I would spank the warden's ass.
"Ahh It hurts me to death, stop fighting, stop fighting. I wrote, I wrote, "This warden is usually lazy and lazy, almost does nothing, and his body is hollowed out by women, not to mention 30 kills, and he can't stand even ten strokes."
"If you said it earlier, you wouldn't have to suffer such a big crime, Wang Zhutou brought him a pen and paper and asked him to write down."
"It's an adult"
The warden lay on the ground, knowing that Suo Suo wrote down the affairs he was responsible for.
In less than a quarter of an hour (15 minutes), the warden was heard
"My lord, it's written."
"Huh? So fast? Wang catches the head, take it up, I'll take a look"
"Look, sir."
"I said, how do you write so quickly with a brush? It turns out that you don't do anything on weekdays, but only care about corruption and molesting good women."
It only wrote what he was responsible for, and there were no specific details.
Now I look at Guobei County more than I imagined.
So far, according to Li Yun's understanding, this county town has no organizational strength at all, but has only raised dozens of catchers to threaten ordinary people as his own thugs.
All other administrative organs were abolished by the magistrate, in order to reduce their own expenditures, so as to embezzle a little more.
