Seeing this, the officer and soldier sneered.

"Discern what? Do you want me to arrest people myself? Hmph, that's unreasonable, whether you're guilty or not, we're not going to give up today! ”

As he spoke, he winked at the few people under him.

After the officers and soldiers nodded, they immediately rushed forward.

Seeing this, Wu Zhi hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, but he was attacked by several officers and soldiers from left to right, and he couldn't get close at all, his face suddenly sank, and he had already moved his mind to forcibly break through the encirclement.

But at this juncture, the shopkeeper stood up and blocked those people.

"Stop! You Diao people, don't you know that this son is ......?"

"Smack!"

Before the shopkeeper could finish speaking, a slap interrupted his next words.

I saw that the officers and soldiers led by him snorted coldly and said sharply: "Old thing, are you tired and crooked?" ”

"I ......"

The shopkeeper was about to retort, but was interrupted by another voice.

"Stop! You people! ”

Then, a thin middle-aged man walked out from behind the crowd and shouted loudly.

When those officers and soldiers saw this, they hurriedly stopped and respectfully shouted "Master."

The middle-aged man snorted coldly and looked at the shopkeeper, "Old man, why did you talk nonsense just now?" ”

"Master, little one...... What a small wrong! ”

When the shopkeeper saw this man, he couldn't help but feel very frightened in his heart.

Because the middle-aged man in front of him was none other than Uncle Li, the most prestigious official in the town.

This guy usually likes to bully people, run rampant and domineering in the town, and he is very ruthless and decisive, and has a very bad reputation among the villagers, and many people dare not mess with him.

But the shopkeeper can't help it, who makes the other party's background deeper?

"Hmph, I will naturally deal with this matter impartially!"

After Third Uncle Li finished speaking, he turned to look at Wu Zhi and Wu Song, "Leave this matter to me to deal with, you go back first." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Wu Zhi and Wu Song to answer, he walked straight outside, and the officers and soldiers just now also retreated, leaving only two to watch at the door.

"Shopkeeper, are you alright?"

After Wu Zhi glanced at the middle-aged man's back, he turned around and asked with concern.

"Alas......"

The shopkeeper let out a long sigh, his face full of loneliness, and he shook his head.

Looking at the scene in front of them, Wu Zhi and Wu Song felt a little unbearable and wanted to persuade them, but they didn't dare to say anything.

"Wu Zhi, Wu Song, these officers and soldiers are not easy to mess with, you must be careful!"

In the end, the shopkeeper could only remind him, and then turned around and went back to the room to pack his things.

Leaving the brothers looking at each other.

"Brother, do you think we should stay in the town, or leave?"

Wu Song hesitated for a moment and asked.

And Wu's direct answer was still decisive.

"Now that you're in town, you have to have something to eat, and it would be a shame if you left."

Wu Song nodded, agreeing with Wu Zhi's point of view.

……

In the town, in the county office.

Uncle Li was standing in the middle of the hall, his brows furrowed.

"Master Li, the matter has been investigated clearly, those who killed people all died in the mountains and forests, and they all died at the same time!"

An officer and soldier said.

"Hmmm! Those thieves must have a plan, otherwise how could they have killed so many people at the same time? ”

Third Uncle Li snorted coldly and said in a deep voice.

"Then what is Master Li going to do?"

"Hmph, I must investigate this matter thoroughly and give an explanation to the villagers!"

Third Uncle Li said viciously, his eyes flashing with a cruel light.

"Then what are the plans of Lord Li?"

"I will have my men look for the murderer everywhere and bring him to justice once he is found!"

Third Uncle Li gritted his teeth and said, his eyes flashing with anger.

"Then shall we inform the prefectural magistrate?"

"No, it's not the time yet, I've already contacted the county magistrate, and I'll let him know when the time comes."

After Uncle Li finished speaking, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"This time, I will definitely find out!"

"Yes! Subordinates obey! ”

……

In a ruined temple on the south side of the town.

Wu Song said indignantly: "Brother, those officers and soldiers are here to find trouble!" ”

"Hmmm! This time it was indeed coming at us! ”

Wu Zhi nodded, his face solemn.

Seeing this, Wu Song looked worried.

"But, brother, what do we do now? You can't just hide for the rest of your life, can you? ”

"Temporary evasion is not a solution, you must find a way to get out!"

Wu Zhi frowned, thought for a moment, and then spoke.

"How can I get out of danger?" Wu Song asked.

"Now we only have one place, but it's not a good place to go."

Wu Zhi hesitated.

However, Wu Song was particularly curious about this.

"Where?"

"There's a barren mountain near this town, we can take refuge in that mountain first!"

"Shall we change our costumes, then?"

Wu Song asked.

"Not for the time being, there are a lot of government eyeliners in this town, and we can't take this risk."

"Oh! So what are we going to do now? ”

"Waiting for your chance! When it gets dark, leave the town at night. ”

……

Time passes slowly.

After dark.

Wu Zhi and Wu Song left the broken temple and rushed to the barren mountain outside the town.

When they walked out of the town, they suddenly noticed a white figure following behind, always keeping a distance, and not rushing closer.

Seeing this scene, both of them were stunned and a little confused.

"Isn't this guy coming at us?"

"Maybe, if he hadn't come for us, why would he be staring at us like this?"

Wu Zhi and Wu Song looked at each other and decided to stop and take a closer look.

Then, they stopped where they were, and waited quietly.

After a while.

"Whew~~"

Finally, there was a faint sound of horses' hooves.

Hearing this voice, a smile rose at the corner of Wu Zhi's mouth, and Wu Song also showed a happy expression.

Behind them, a tall, lanky boy appeared, riding a horse and galloping towards the two.

"Haha~~ Wu Zhi, Wu Song, I didn't expect us to meet here!"

"It's you!"

Seeing the person coming, Wu Zhi suddenly exclaimed in surprise, and his tone was surprised.

The person who came didn't see it at all, and jumped off the horse directly, "Haha, how could you two brothers get caught, it's really a rare thing!" ”

The person who came was Chen Feng.

He happened to be passing by here, so he stopped by to take a look.

"Brother Chen, are you here to investigate the case?"

Wu Zhi asked.

"Well, yes, I just got here on patrol and saw you two brothers, so I followed!"

Chen Feng nodded.

"Brother Chen, we almost died when we met an assassin, but fortunately you arrived in time to save our lives!"

Wu Zhi said with a deliberate fuss.

Sure enough, it was no surprise that Chen Feng's eyes were harvested!
