Chapter 42 Let's Duel! (Early Morning Monthly Pass)
The downpour of rainstorms failed to stop the crowds who went to the county government to protest, condemn, beg, and put pressure on them. Every second of time is passing by. What is passing by is not time, but it is all white silver. It flows like a rainstorm in the sky. Who doesn’t feel sorry for it?
The people who put pressure on Hua Magistrate were local or foreign gentry; the people who condemned Hua Magistrate were seniors who retired and officials passing by; the people who angrily protested against Hua Magistrate were numerous merchants; the people who were begging for those who lived by the post office were free from the appearance of sentient beings.
Even the shopkeepers of inns and restaurants in this county came. Although their business has been very popular recently, they know that all this is only temporary at the moment. If the post road is not smooth, Huxian will soon become a dead land and recreate the appearance of the lonely mountains and wilderness back then.
All the contradictions and pressures were all on the head of Hua Qingfeng, the county chief, who made the county magistrate Hua feel so anxious and dizzy. He was an irresponsible person, so he naturally shirked everything to Ye Xiaotian.
But these people who came to make trouble also understood Ye Xiaotian's unsilent personality. Whoever dared to go to his place to make it boring? Of course, he just grabbed Hua Magistrate Hua and didn't pick on persimmons. Hua Qingfeng had no choice but to ask someone to find Ye Xiaotian.
At that time, Ye Xiaotian was about to go to the prison, but he replied hard: "I am busy, and I will go to the county government when I finish my work!" Then he sent his people back. Others may not be qualified to say this, but Ye Xiaotian said this, and Hua Qingfeng had no confidence in questioning it.
Ye Xiaotian's actions were much tougher than him, and many things that should have been done by him were the ones who were doing the right thing. Now it was Ye Xiaotian who was doing it. Ye Xiaotian had already gained unanimous support from the county government. If it weren't for knowing that Ye Xiaotian's history would not last long, the Wang Zhuan had long regarded Ye Xiaotian as the biggest threat, how could he cooperate with him?
Furthermore, Ye Xiaotian knew that he would not be able to do it for a long time, so he just wanted to solve this matter quickly before leaving, and he didn't have to worry about his relationship with County Magistrate Hua, so he naturally acted without any restraint. Hua Qingfeng was so angry when he heard the reward, so he could only send someone to urge him again, but he couldn't withstand the bombardment of so many people.
Ye Xiaotian came out of the prison and immediately called the prison chief to give him a face-to-face message. The prison chief also knew what was going on in Huxian now. It was said that Lord Dian Shi was crazy, so crazy that even the county magistrate was helpless. Uncle Qi called out the headache, and he dared not offend him, so he naturally was submissive and obedient. He immediately sent someone to mention the offender Hua Yunfei.
After Ye Xiaotian gave instructions to the prison chief, he called Li Yuncong, Su Xuntian, Ma Hui, Xu Haoran and others carefully instructed them. The people immediately left the prison in the heavy rain and did their own things as Ye Xiaotian ordered.
After doing all this, the prison leader also brought Hua Yunfei, and Ye Xiaotian didn't say much to Hua Yunfei. So he put on a straw raincoat with everyone, and went straight to the county government with more than a dozen constables including Zhou Bantou, protecting Hua Yunfei's prison car.
At this time, on Wong Tai Sin Ridge...
Heavy rainstorms are pouring and thunder is pouring.
Two men in the straw raincoat stood proudly on a huge rock that suddenly poked out of the cliff on Huang Daxian Ridge.
One was a very handsome boy, with a lingering shank and a small sharp and sheathless blade exposed at the belt of the straw raincoat. A pair of hemp shoes under his feet flowed quickly from the stone surface under his feet like a rain stream. The boy stood there, motionless steadily.
A tall ancient pine tree that was leaning out of the cliff was standing in front of another straw raincoat boy. A piece of conical sharp corner wrapped in a green cloth serpent from his forehead, which had been bent by the rain. He was wearing a string of large yellow and red ear beads with a string of red tassels under the beads.
The mountain wind was howling and the rainstorm was pouring. Two people stood alone on the top of the mountain.
The sabre boy frowned and shouted loudly in the howling wind and rain: "We two talk about things, why should we choose such a place? And it's still like this? I always feel a little stupid."
The young man from the cone corner said, "What do you know! I see those Tang legends and Song dynasties. Any strange people in the world never speak in a normal place. They usually choose cliffs or something. This is called artistic conception."
The sabre boy said, "Is it including the pouring rain?"
The young man at the cone angle said: "There are unexpected changes in the sky!"
The young man with swordsman snorted heavily and said coolly: "Why say you are sick! Qi Mu has begun to block the post road. Have you heard of it?"
The cone angle boy said, "Isn't that right? We are looking forward to this day!"
The Saber boy said, "How many people have you found there?"
The cone angle boy said, "No need to ask, it's enough. What about you?"
The sabre boy said, "Why ask, are you fewer than you?"
"snort!"
"snort!"
The two were silent for a while, and the young man with swords said again: "In the future, you and I should not confront each other with tit-for-tat, we must cooperate sincerely."
The young man from the cone corner said: "This matter requires settlement of all aspects of relationships. It is not easy. If you are a friend of your Miao village, you come forward! If you are a friend of our Yi village, I come forward. If you are an official, the Wang Zhuzhu will come forward. In the business world, the tycoon will come forward. If you are a friend of our ideas, you will come forward. I believe that the powerful figures in all aspects are also dissatisfied with Qi Mu's actions. It is easier for us to take over."
The young man with sword said: "There is a set of rules in the transportation of the post road. Do you understand it?"
The young man from the cone corner said: "In both of you and me, there are many people who are living under Qi Mu. We can take over these people with just one word. With these familiar hands, it is not easy for us to get to the Tao?"
The young man with sword said, "That's right. Think about it carefully, his idea is really good. Over the years, many people in our tribe have been traveling for transportation under Qi Mu. Why have I never thought about doing post road transportation by myself?"
The young man at the cone angle mocked: "When you have no knowledge of the earthen leopard, will you think of going to fish when you have the land?"
"As soon as you say you are sincere in cooperation, you insult me and I want to duel with you!"
"At the minute, you are a firecracker? I accept your duel!"
"choke!"
The steel knife is unsheathed, as narrow as willow leaves.
"Clam!"
The steel knife was unsheathed, and nine iron rings on the back of the knife were clamoring.
"Kala!"
A thunder struck the ancient pine tree on the top of the mountain. An electric fire rose, scaring the two heroes of the Jianghu who were planning to fight to the death...
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
"Hahaha..."
The heavy rain strung into pearl curtains under the eaves. Qi Mu couldn't control his smile, but the injuries on his cheeks had not healed, so he could only make a laugh. Qi Mu laughed for a while, and said in a voice that was missing a few teeth, which caused some air leakage: "It seems that they are so anxious that they go to the county government to force the palace to do so."
Fan Lei smiled and said, "Our people naturally contributed to the fire and played a little role. But they were really anxious."
"The word "profit" is the beginning, how can you not be anxious? It's so anxious!"
Qi Mu walked in the hall for a while, and a gloomy look gradually appeared on his face: "I have changed my mind!"
Fan Lei said in surprise: "What's your idea, brother?"
Qi Mu said: "It will take some time to alarm the governor's yamen and several great chieftains to seize his official position. I have to wait for him to be punished and I have to wait for a while. When the limelight has passed, I really can't wait. This is one of them.
Secondly, our losses during this period are really not small, even greater than I expected. The big guys above cannot completely notice that I am trying to do anything. If it affects their interests, they will inevitably become dissatisfied with me. We should fight quickly and decide this matter quickly."
Fan Lei frowned and said, "But he has the protection of his official position. What can we do? We can't blatantly..."
Qi Mu said in a slit: "No! You just have to be blatant! You have never heard of the saying that the law does not blame the public?"
Fan Lei's eyes lit up and said, "Brother, are you talking?"
Qi Mu said: "You know very well what the imperial court is doing. They are unwilling to use strong people in this place. Once a war breaks out in Zhongzhou, it will be a mud pit, and the consumption of soldiers, horses, money, and water is like consuming. What can it be exchanged for? It is not worth the loss.
Therefore, the court has always appeased the king of this place. If someone acted against the enemy, forced the public to resentment, and then rioted and killed a small divine history, the court would definitely lose it. It would be worth it to exchange the life of a divine history for local stability in the eyes of the court officials!"
Fan Lei said excitedly: "I understand. We won't come forward and use those who go to the county government to put pressure..."
Qi Mu said sinisterly: "Of course, when it's time to add fuel, you might as well stretch out your hand."
Fan Lei said knowingly: "I understand! I'll go now!"
Fan Lei turned around and left quickly. Qi Mu walked slowly to the corridor, looking at the rainwater that was strung into lines, and said leisurely: "I think I think I am asking for my orders, but I was beaten to death by the angry people and thrown into the heavy rain. This ending is very interesting..."
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
In the heavy rain, Ye Xiaotian didn't know that his mortal enemy Qi Mu actually had a close relationship with him, so he also chose to fight to the death today.
He trekked in the rain with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and shouted to Zhou Bantou who was with him: "It's raining? It's better to rain! Didn't you say they have crossbows? In such a weather, they cannot use crossbows, so we can reduce casualties.
Moreover, the sudden launch of the rainstorm can have an unexpected effect! Now that Hua Yunfei has been captured, there must be not so many guards in the Qi Mansion, and it is easy for us to attack at this time. Once Qi Mu is captured and the evil one is captured, the rest of the party is nothing more than a mess, so it is not worth worrying!”
"Lord Dianshi is back! Lord Dianshi is back!"
Old Lutou, who was responsible for sweeping, was doing nothing today. He was watching the rain in the corridor. The first time he saw Ye Xiaotian coming back, he immediately ran to the noisy lobby like a vegetable market and howled. With just one sentence, all the people around Hua Magistrate Hua were suddenly silent.
County Magistrate Hua felt relieved and stretched his wrinkled official robe that was pulled by someone, and straightened his hat that was being shaken by someone. After looking at everyone's reaction, he thought madly: "Strange! Keep making noise! If you have the ability to tantrums at that madman, it would be strange if he doesn't slap you in the face!"
County Magistrate Hua sorted out his appearance and shouted in a deep voice: "Come on! I will quickly pass on the Aidian Shi Shangtang, and I have something to ask him!"
Before Hua Qingfeng could finish his speech, he heard the sound of "Bang!", which scared him to death. It was not thunder, but drums. In the rainstorm, under the thunder, someone was beating the drum!
The sound of drums echoed in the lobby, and everyone in the hall looked at each other. Ye Xiaotian came in from outside with the sound of drums, stepping on the sound of drums, really "footprints" one by one...
