Gu Jieqing looked at the more than twenty people inside and outside the temple, and asked Yang Wuhui, "What should we do with these people?"

"Tie them up first and send them to Xichong County Government tomorrow!"

Gu Jieqing frowned: "But there is nothing to tie them up!"

Yang Wuhui smiled and said, "These yellow strips of cloth hung at the River God Temple are enough. Remember, after tying their hands and feet, tie one in their mouths as well!"

Gu Jieqing agreed, and then started running with Xiao Wu, who was slightly injured.

Those who resisted were naturally beaten unconscious, so that no one dared to resist.

When the time came for a head count, it was found that there were only seventeen people.

When Yang Wuhui saw this, he said, "It doesn't matter, their bosses are all here, it's not that important even if a few of them escape."

After finishing their work, Xiao Wu and Gu Jieqing looked at the group of people with indifferent expressions.

Zhan Yirong walked to Yang Wuhui's side, sat down and said, "Who is this river god?"

Yang Wuhui smiled and said, "It's just a pretense!"

At this moment, Wang Rulan was also sitting silently on the right side of Yang Wuhui. When she heard Yang Wuhui's words, she couldn't help but ask: "My dear, you mean that this river god is actually a human being!"

Yang Wuhui looked at Wang Rulan: "Otherwise!"

Wang Rulan said: "But he has a dragon head, and if this is not a river god, then why has Xichong County been so prosperous in the past twenty years?"

Yang Wuhui was silent and then gave the answer.

"I don't know!"

This word "I don't know" left Wang Rulan speechless.

But Yang Wugui didn't mean anything else. He just didn't know.

You will know, but certainly not now.

Speaking of this, Yang Wuhui also remembered something.

He then said: "Young lady of the Wang family, I need your help with something!"

Wang Rulan looked at Yang Wuhui, nodded and said, "It's just what my benefactor ordered!"

Yang Wuhui said: "After all, you were sacrificed to the River God, so after arriving in Xichong County tomorrow, you may need to remain anonymous for a period of time. During this period, remember not to see your relatives. Is it possible for you to do that?"

Wang Rulan nodded solemnly: "My dear benefactor, please rest assured, Rulan will definitely be able to do it!"

That night, Yang Wuhui and Wang Rulan went to sleep, but the other three people did not dare to sleep.

In the early morning, the first ray of sunshine came in, which was quite warm.

It rained so hard last night, and the sun came out and evaporated the water on the ground, so it naturally felt warm.

Yang Wuhui was also awakened by the sunlight shining in from the window, which hit his eyes.

After getting up, there is no need to wash up.

Where can I go to wash up in this place?

After Yang Wuhui opened the door of the River God Temple, the sun shone in.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but sigh: "I wonder if it will be a beautiful day!"

At this time, Gu Jieqing looked over with red eyes.

He stayed up all night last night, watching this group of unworthy horse bandits.

However, General Squint and his group slept very soundly.

Some even snored.

Gu Jieqing wanted to stab them, but in the end he held back.

The others also woke up one after another after Yang Wuhui opened the River God Temple.

Yang Wuhui said hello, and a group of people started heading towards Xichong County.

Three hours later, we arrived at the gate of Xichong County.

The appearance of Yang Wuhui and others also attracted the attention of passers-by.

As a result, he was interrogated at the door.

There was no other way. They captured seventeen horse bandits, including a general with squinting eyes. It would be strange if they were not questioned.

When the officers guarding the city asked Yang Wuhui, neither Gu Jieqing nor Xiao Wu came forward.

Because Yang Wuhui said from the beginning that they should not expose their identities after arriving in Xichong County.

Gu Jieqing naturally had no objection to this. He knew that Yang Wuhui was smart and must be harboring some dirty tricks in his heart.

Gu Jieqing agreed, so Xiao Wu naturally had no objection.

As for Zhan Yirong, she appeared as Yang Wuhui's wife.

Wang Rulan and Yang Wuhui also arranged an identity for her, that is, maid.

Wang Rulan had no objection to this.

She was all saved by Yang Wuhui, let alone her status as a maid, she had no problem with being a maid.

Because Wang Rulan had already seen that the identities of this group of people were not simple, and they were all highly skilled in martial arts.

In fact, she was wrong. Yang Wuhui had no martial arts skills.

But if you really meet a master, if you catch him by surprise, you might be able to achieve miraculous feats.

The interrogating soldier asked with disbelief: "You said these people are horse bandits, and that person with squinting eyes is the squinting general?"

Yang Wuhui nodded and replied: "Exactly!"

The soldier looked at Yang Wuhui in disbelief and said, "Then who are you!"

Yang Wuhui smiled mysteriously, then took out his official seal and said, "I am the new magistrate of Xichong County, so is Yang Wuhui. This is my official seal!"

As soon as the soldier saw the official seal, he immediately bowed: "See you, Lord County Lord!"

Then he added: "Please wait a moment, Your Majesty the County Lord, I will send someone to invite the Lord County Magistrate to come now!"

Yang Wuhui was not in a hurry, because to deal with the slant-eyed general and his entourage, the county magistrate's arrival was really needed.

So, he waited here.

It didn't take long before a man with some gray hair and a face less than fifty came over quickly.

When he saw Yang Wuhui, he paid his respects and said, "Greetings to Mr. Yang, I will serve as Li Youdao, the county magistrate of Xichong County."

Yang Wuhui smiled and said, "Master Li, you don't have to be like this!"

Li Youdao spoke again: "Master Yang, can you show me the official seal?"

Yang Wuhui nodded and took out the official seal from his sleeve again.

After Li Youdao took over the official seal, he observed it and then returned it to Yang Wuhui.

Then, he saluted Yang Wuhui again.

"Master Yang, please! I have already set up a table of wine and food in Juxia downstairs to welcome Mr. Yang. I hope Mr. Yang will not refuse!"

Yang Wuhui smiled and said: "Of course I won't refuse. I have eaten and slept in the open all the way. It is rare for Mr. Li to hold a banquet, so it would be disrespectful to refuse."

But Yang Wuhui quickly frowned and said, "It's just General Squint and his party, so what?"

Li Youdao said: "No problem, I will send someone to escort them back to the prison. Master Yang, just go to the banquet with me!"

Yang Wuhui nodded: "That's great!"

Yang Wuhui handed over these dozen horse bandits to the government servants who came over, while he, Zhan Yirong and others went to the so-called Juxia downstairs for the banquet.

Yang Wuhui also deliberately tested Li Youdao on how to arrange the group of horse bandits.

You know, in Xichong without a county magistrate, the county magistrate is equivalent to the head of a county.

So don't underestimate Li Youdao. Yang Wuhui felt that since he was the head of a county before he came, he must see what kind of person he is.

It just so happened that he invited me to the banquet, so I could get to know him a little bit.

As for whether it was the Hongmen Banquet, Yang Wuhui felt that if it was the Hongmen Banquet, this trip to Xichong would probably end quickly for Gu Jieqing and Xiao Wu.

Of course Yang Wuhui can't, he still wants to be an official here!
