Speaking of this, Sima Zongheng deliberately gasped, pretending to be out of breath, and took this opportunity to sneak a glance at Jiang Bai, meaning to see who he really was, whether it was impermanence sent by Lord Yama, but it was too dark in the room, he didn't see anything, but he felt that the ghost grandfather who was standing listened very carefully, and he didn't dare to delay for too long, there was no way, so he had to continue talking; "So, my idea is to be at peace with them, don't provoke anyone, if possible, I will also think of befriending them, to be honest, they have never robbed the business travelers who come and go, that is to say, they have not caused trouble to the local area, therefore, I will not easily provoke Yanbo Village."

After listening to Sima Zongheng's explanation, Jiang Bai suddenly remembered something again, so he asked again; "Sima Zongheng, you are the parent official of one party, you have scavenged the people's money in office all these years, I will make a note for you first, and I will ask you, according to your knowledge, in this Linyuan County, including the surrounding hundreds of miles, there are also those land bullies or underworld characters on the rivers and lakes."

As soon as Sima Zongheng heard such a question, he was shocked again, what did this seemingly impermanent ghost and that stout man do, could it be that they are not from the underworld, but people from the six gates of the capital, it doesn't look like ah, ordinary people in the rivers and lakes or hermit masters, no one will pay attention to this matter.

Sima Zongheng couldn't understand that the person who controlled his fate of life and death didn't allow him to think about it, he had no choice, so he had to tell the truth; Actually, what can enter my eyes is not those ruffians, but like the top masters in Yanbo Village, but, to put it in detail, there seems to be no one who can dominate one side in Linyuan County now, of course, Chunxiao Lou Huang Yanshi's subordinates are not counted, and there is Qingfeng Mountain, which is not too far from here, it is said that there is a group of robbers on it, however, recently the county catchers told me that the government sent Huang Zhutou to exterminate them, so to speak, the current Linyuan County can be described as a peaceful and prosperous era. ”

This night was surprisingly quiet, there was no sound in the huge Linyuan County, even the barking of dogs that could be heard from time to time on weekdays, there was no sound, and occasionally a few night cats would cross the road and chase each other, and those dogs seemed to be lazily lying in the nest to sleep.

The red lantern in front of the gate of the Spring Festival Building is still hanging high, and the light still attracts clumps of moths and other winged flying insects, but the courtyard is indeed very quiet, there is no patrolling man, and even the people on duty in the gatehouse have not come out, it is really too quiet and too quiet.

At this point, Jiang Bai looked at the messenger who was always kneeling on the ground with his head bowed, and felt that he was really surprisingly honest, he just wanted to open his mouth to let Lao Shi see what was going on with him, but suddenly remembered a crucial matter, so he immediately looked at Sima Zongheng with his eyes, and suddenly asked; "Lord Sima, I heard that there is a family in the county town that wants to open two antique and jade shops, what do you think?"

If this question was said in ordinary times, Sima Zongheng would have heard it very inattentively, and he would have been immediately alert, but today, this mysterious person who is not a ghost or a ghost asked him, and he didn't dare not tell the truth, so he whispered; "Grandpa, your old man is powerful, we know very well about the things in Linyuan County, no matter how big or small, in fact, the uncle and nephew of the Chen family who opened the antique jade shop originally came to Linyuan to deal in antiques and jade, but they came back this time to return to the old business, I originally planned to send someone to send him a couplet on the day of his opening, to express the meaning of celebration, but now it is difficult to make the trip."

Jiang Bai didn't believe Sima Zongheng's words at all, so he immediately stared at Sima Zongheng and asked; "Doesn't Lord Sima have any other ideas, such as the pearl that hasn't arrived yet, I heard that the pearl will sparkle at night, it's a priceless treasure!"

Jiang Bai deliberately stimulated Sima Zongheng with words, but unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a squeak, and the fox spoke; "Your old man, your old man don't believe him, he is purely putting gold on his face, just yesterday, he asked me to send someone to Chen's house to spy on the situation, but he hasn't had time to tell me the date of the move."

"Hands, what hands?"

Jiang Bai pretended to be confused and asked deliberately, and the fox immediately added; "Squeak, squeak, apparently the fox was in a hurry, and after the squeak, I heard him say again;" What else can he do, he saw that the person and the treasure in his hand flew again, can he be willing, not that we will quietly steal the orb when he opens. ”

"Steal, which of you has the ability to steal someone else's stuff in plain sight without being discovered?"

Jiang Bai's questioning was purely to set out the overall plan of the fire fox, but I don't know if the fire fox was to invite merit, and planned to let Jiang Bai avoid its death, or to deliberately oppose Sima Zongheng, in short, Jiang Bai had just finished asking, and the fire fox immediately said with some pride; "I don't dare to say it all over the world, but in this Linyuan county, I dare to say that doing this kind of thing, except for me, can anyone else, I really haven't found anyone with better means than me."

Jiang Bai fell into deep thought for a while after hearing this, and did not speak, but the fire fox took this opportunity to say proudly; "My lord, you old man, immortal, you old immortal,"

For some reason, this fire fox was a little incoherent excitedly, but fortunately Jiang Bai didn't care about it, which just gave him the opportunity to show off next, and then, it said; "Old immortal, as long as you are happy, I will give you a show that day, you will know my ability, if you can spare me not to die, maybe I can steal the life and death book of Lord Yama for you."

At this time, Jiang Bai thought about the last question he wanted to ask, so he paused and continued; "Huang Yanshi, let me ask you, how many people do you have, and how many people in the county government can be assigned by our county commander."

The fire fox replied immediately; "We have a total of ten masters in the Spring Festival Building, but I think you must have let your old man get it done before you come in, otherwise it won't stop like this, because these ten people are all warriors who have been trained by me and are willing to die for me, as for the county government, I think in addition to this poor person who is piling up urine here, there will be no more than three people who can be regarded as masters."

Hearing this, Jiang Bai hurriedly asked again; "Where do these three masters you are talking about stay on weekdays?"

"Under normal circumstances, they are the county government's catch, only when it comes to a critical moment or there are special circumstances, such as our county commander falls in love with the girl or wants to play with the little daughter-in-law of which family, will send these three people to shoot, that is called ability, the three of them have never missed, for this reason, I heard that these three catchers, all bought houses and bought land around the county, as if living the life of a rich man, yes or no, my county magistrate!"

Hearing this, Jiang Bai felt that it was almost time to ask, the uncle and nephew of the Chen family will open for business tomorrow, Wen Niang and Xiaoyue should be able to cope with it, he should be able to put his mind at ease, but when he heard the words behind the fire fox, he was immediately very angry, so, in the dark, Jiang Bai couldn't help but wave his hand suddenly, and in an instant, it was really in the blink of an eye, a shining white light crossed the dark room, the fox was surprised, Sima Zongheng was surprised, but he didn't understand what was going on, Lao Jiu and Lao Shi saw Jiang Bai waving his hand, Unbelievably there was a miserable white arc of light, and I thought it was a magical flame knife skill they heard in the rivers and lakes, this kind of martial arts practiced to the highest level, can gather qi into frost, and instantly turn frost into light, from the light to turn into a flame knife, according to legend, if the person who practices this kind of kung fu is a genius who has been instructed by a god, the knife light emitted by his wave of his hand can shoot ten miles away and hurt people's lives.

So Lao Jiu and Lao Shi were immediately stunned, and their first thought after being stunned was that if possible, they must kneel in front of the Ling Lord, and beg him to accept them as apprentices, even if they are apprentices, they are willing.

However, after the fire fox saw Jiang Bai waving his palm emitting a white light, what he thought was, don't look at this person pretending to be an impermanent ghost, in fact, he must not be an ordinary mortal pretending to be a god to scare people, but an immortal who has cultivated the Tao, and the most important thing is Jiang Bai himself, he never dreamed that a white light would be emitted when he waved his hand, what is going on, could it be that which black pearl has exerted special skills, or is it because of other reasons?

Jiang Bai just thought of this, but suddenly felt a tremor in his heart, wow, Jiang Bai immediately understood, it turned out that Beng Niangniang was calling him, okay, don't say anything, leave all the things here to Lao Jiu and Lao Shi, and go to Jiang Xin's island by himself.

So, Jiang Bai couldn't care about what was going on with that white light anymore, so he listened to him whisper to Lao Jiu and Lao Shi; "Annoyed the two brothers, escort these three scum to the stockade, tell Xiao She, let him take care of these three people, and wait for my message to deal with them."

Lao Jiu and Lao Shi had already regarded Jiang Bai as a celestial since they saw the shining white light, and where was there still the slightest hesitation, they listened to the two of them agree; "Yes, Lord Order."

When Sima Zongheng and the fire fox heard that Jiang Bai was going to escort them to the stockade, there was a glimmer of hope in their hearts, after all, they didn't execute them on the spot, so what did it mean, it meant that as long as they were lucky, they might be able to escape this catastrophe.
