Chapter 29: The County Government Turmoil

These men in black did not expect that an ambush had been set up here, and when they stepped into the gate, they were attacked by arrows, and they quickly drew their scimitars to resist, but several people were still killed by arrows and were shot into hedgehogs.

"Array!"

The black-clothed man at the head shouted, and the black-clothed people each took out a shield from their backs, only to see the three of them as the head, and the back as a group of twos and twos, forming a long snake formation in an instant.

They defend themselves with shields, and use the knives in their hands as sharp blades, like a long snake that swims, "slipping" forward.

Dense arrows fell on the long snake formation, all of which were resisted by shields.

Ahead, a middle-aged man dressed as a headhunter saw that the bow and arrow were ineffective against the attack on the long snake array, and commanded the officers and soldiers to quickly change the formation.

"Knife Soldiers!"

They were waiting here, so they were naturally prepared. As the middle-aged head-hunting order was issued, the archers immediately retreated, and dozens of officers and soldiers armed with long knives flashed out.

The two sides collided together, and a great war broke out......

When the two sides were mixed into the battle, in the darkness, a black shadow quietly swept into the prison......

At this time, due to the invasion of foreign enemies, most of the soldiers were dispatched, and only a few people remained behind.

The shadows stalked silently and appeared in the prison, and when the remaining jailers noticed that something was wrong, small pocket arrows had already pierced their heads.

The black shadow was indeed like a shadow, and in the blink of an eye, it entered the depths of the prison.

In the depths of the prison, there is not one of the most important prisoners.

These prisoners are the gangster who intercepted Chen Tuo and Luo Fatzi today, Brother Dog, and his gangsters.

Because of the Mu family, they all became felons and were chained.

Looking at the black shadow that suddenly appeared under the black clothes, Brother Dog and the others were surprised: "Who are you?"

"Haven't we just been separated? Lady Dog won't know me so soon?" The man in black took off his mask, revealing a withered face, it was the thief.

This time, he called Brother Dog Dog, not Brother Dog.

Brother Dog changed slightly, looked at the familiar and unfamiliar face in front of him, and asked sharply, "Who are you?"

The thief did not answer his words, but said: "Lord Dog, if it weren't for the two people who got in the way today, I'm afraid we would have succeeded, you are still your dog brother, no one knows about you, but it's a pity...... There is no if...... In order not to leak any rumors and put an end to all unstable factors, I have to sacrifice you!I'm sorry......"

Although the thief said "sorry", there was no apology in his eyes, and when he raised his hand, he shot a small arrow, which was submerged into the dog's forehead.

Brother Dog's death immediately caused panic among all the gangsters.

But panic was useless, and as the thief raised his hand again, all the thugs were killed in an instant.

"Don't worry, I will find those two people and avenge your ......"

The thief touched his waist, he was still wrapped in gauze, and Chen Tuo kicked out the stone, almost killing one of his kidneys.

The thief came out of the prison, and as he left the yamen, he made a strange bird sound.

The sound is not loud, but it is very clear.

"Withdraw!"

When the black-clothed man at the head heard the voice, he decisively gave the task of retreating, leaving behind seven or eight corpses, which disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Come fast and go fast.

The middle-aged head catcher felt that something was wrong, and quickly led people back to the prison, waiting to see the jailer who died tragically, as well as the dead dog brother and other gangsters, which made him break out in a cold sweat.

Especially Brother Dog, it was involved in the Mu family of the City Lord's Mansion, and now he was killed under his hands.

originally thought that a foolproof plan had been made, but it was still put on the table, those men in black were just a gimmick, and this plan to divert the tiger from the mountain was too difficult to prevent.

Who would have thought that the enemy would be so treacherous and calculating.

The cell was only a few dozen meters away from the battlefield, but it still made people sneak in unnoticed.

Something big is wrong.

The prefectural magistrate who heard about the accident moved his fat body and rushed from the back hall in a hurry.

"Bastard things, people kill people under their noses, it's really useless, it's all waste!" The county magistrate scolded the middle-aged headcatcher, he originally wanted to curry favor with the city lord, so as to get the opportunity to be promoted, but now, not only did he not make meritorious service, but the criminal also died.

It's really "speculation" that can't be done, and the rice is eroded.

The middle-aged head catcher looked bitter, and thought: I am acting according to the orders of the county commander, and I transferred all the soldiers to the gate to "wait for the rabbit", which caused the emptiness of the prison to be taken advantage of by the thieves. Now, it's my fault!?

However, these words, just complain in his heart, how dare he beep the county commander as a small catcher.

"Send people to find them, even if they dig three feet into the ground, find these people, otherwise, I will let you go around without eating." The county magistrate roared.

"Yes!"

The middle-aged headcatcher wiped a cold sweat, knew the urgency of the matter, made a slight arch, and quickly went out with some of his subordinates to search for the murderer.

Knock Knock Knock –

The sound of "dong dong" drumming came from the direction of the yamen.

"Come on, let's go see what's going on? Why are the drums beating in the middle of the night?" the county magistrate was very impatient.

A servant immediately went to investigate.

Soon, the official came to talk back and said, "Lord Hui, it's a young man beating the drum, saying that he lost a big stone and a ......."

The current county magistrate is at a loss for words, and he is very troubled, and when he hears that someone has come to report that a stone has been missing, how can he be in such a mood? If he loses a stone and comes to the yamen to report the case, will he also come to report the case if he loses a tile?

How unreasonable!

Without waiting for his subordinates to finish speaking, the county magistrate was very impatient to speak: "Take away, take away, take ......"

"Wait!"

The county magistrate stood a man dressed as a master, and at this time he opened his mouth and asked the official, "In addition to a stone, did the young man also say that there is also a mount with black hair?"

"Exactly!" replied the officer.

The master nodded, then turned around and bowed his hand slightly to the county order: "My lord, congratulations!"

"Master, why are you happy?" The county magistrate is very displeased, and now that the criminal has been killed, you will give me joy in this situation?

The master stroked his two-petal beard and said, "Naturally, congratulations to the adults for finding the murderer, and I'm afraid he is behind the scenes." ”

"The murderer is behind the scenes?" When the county magistrate heard this, his expression turned slightly and asked, "Where is that person?"

"Naturally, it's in front of the hall!" said the master, pointing in the direction of the yamen.

An hour ago, the county government received a report that someone rode a black-haired beast into Little Star City and stayed at Afu Restaurant.

Now that the two countries of Nan and Rong are at war, the black-haired beast, as a mount that only some "high-ranking officials and nobles" in the Rong country, appears here now, which naturally attracts the attention of the county government.

So, as soon as the county order was issued, he sent the head catcher Lao Ma to take people to Afu Restaurant to arrest people.

But it happened that Chen Tuo and Luo Fatzi went out.

Originally, the head arrester Lao Ma was going to squat in the Afu Restaurant to arrest Chen Tuo and Luo Fatzi, but the county order suddenly received news: someone openly robbed the Mu family on the street, and the Mu family has arrested some relevant thieves and is ready to be detained in the county jail, waiting for tomorrow's trial.

Xiaoxingcheng County Commander is a person with "big ambitions", pleasing the Mu family is more important than everything, and he also got reliable information that the captured thieves are likely to be related to Rong Guo.

In the middle of the night, there may even be a robbery.

It's a great opportunity to perform!

The prefectural order was immediately withdrawn by everyone.

With many years of work experience in catching the head of the old horse, he originally planned to leave one or two people to continue to monitor the Afu Restaurant, but because the county commander emphasized that "everyone withdraws".

He had no choice but to return with all the big rocks and the black-haired beast.

All the staff were there, and the county order immediately deployed personnel, and it was bound to arrest the incoming offenders.

Even, he didn't have time to listen to the head catcher old horse tell about the Afu Restaurant.

However, the master next to the county commander has some understanding, I heard that there is a big stone, and I thought it was a gem, and I was very busy to take a look, who would have thought, it was just a big broken stone.

It's not dark.

It's weird, it can't be really a big broken stone.

The master planned to report to the county order and find a way to break through the big stone, but before he could say all this, he heard that someone had come to break into the prison.

As the first strategist of the county order, the master's duty is naturally to give advice and solve problems for the county order. Now, seeing that the county commander is at a loss, he has a plan in his heart.

As soon as he told the county magistrate about the plan in his heart, the county magistrate was immediately overjoyed and took the case: "Brilliant plan!"

"Someone, follow Lord Ben to the front of the hall to arrest the thief!"
