Just when Mu Sheng wanted to violently demolish it.
Yao Ji looked at it for a long time, thoughtfully, and quickly stopped him and said, "Brother Liu, wait a minute, I know how to open the mask."
After saying that, Yao Ji pushed the machine button on the back of the mask and silently recited the formula. After one operation, he only heard a "click!" and the mask on the mysterious man's head came loose.
After Yao Ji opened the mask and took it off, the mysterious man vaguely looked like he was about fifty years old. The warden quickly held an oil lamp to shine on the man's face. When the warden saw this man's face, he was so frightened that he dropped the lamp and subconsciously He knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the man like a fool, "Shang Guan, please forgive me. I don't know that I am a county magistrate. I don't know how dare you..."
The warden suddenly stopped talking mid-sentence, "Then the Sheriff is locked up here, so who was in the Sheriff's Mansion during the day?"
Mu Sheng had never seen the county governor himself, so when he saw the warden's reaction, he was also confused.
Yao Ji asked, "Are you Fu Bao himself?"
When the mysterious man saw that they recognized him, he said calmly, "It is indeed me. I was tricked by a traitor two years ago and fell here. I am Fu Bao, the governor of Yue County appointed by the imperial court."
Hearing this, the two of them looked at each other, shocked and speechless. The warden was even more frightened out of his mind. This man was his superior's superior. The promotion and dismissal of these junior officials were all decided by the court official.
Fu Bao looked at Yao Ji and asked, "Are you Guo Huan's disciple? Three years ago, I went to Yue County to take up my post. Brother Guo came to see me off. I have seen you. Could it be that Brother Guo is here too?"
Yao Ji nodded, thinking of the people who discovered Mo Yingmen in the governor's house before, and roughly guessed the cause and effect. He said to Fu Bao, "Master Fu, we are sent by the East Palace to rescue you. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. It is better to wait." Let’s talk after we go out.”
At this time, the warden also knew the seriousness of the matter. He knelt in front of Fu Bao and kowtowed vigorously and said, "Shangguan, this villain has blind eyes and cannot see the mountains. I have treated you so disrespectfully, please forgive me..."
Fu Bao waved his hand and said, "Get up. He who doesn't know is not guilty."
Mu Sheng turned to the warden and said, "You can find a death row prisoner who looks similar to Master Fu. We will pick up Master Fu tonight."
The warden nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, I will make arrangements now."
The warden took the three of them to the main entrance of the prison and was about to send them out.
Mu Sheng said, "We can't go through the main entrance. I suspect that the fake county guard may send people to keep an eye on this place. I'll go out over the wall with Master Fu on my back."
The three of them arrived at the place where they had turned in. Just as they were about to leave, the warden stopped the two of them and said, "You two heroes and nobles are so forgetful. How can you cure the poison on this villain? Please give me some medicine."
Mu Sheng laughed and said, "That's just a clay pill, it's not a problem."
The warden had no choice but to smile bitterly as he watched them climb over the walls and leave the county prison.
Because Fu Bao was detained for a long time and the food in the prison was not good, his health became very poor. Mu Sheng carried Fu Bao back to the post house and carried him directly to Guo Huan's room.
Guo Huan was surprised when he saw Fu Bao looking haggard and dressed in rags. Could it be that these two guys just kidnapped the county guard?
Yao Ji briefly reported to Guo Huan. Guo Huan stepped forward and looked at it carefully for a long time before finally confirming that this was really an old friend of more than ten years.
Guo Huan grabbed Fu Bao's hand and said sadly, "Brother Fu! You have suffered. Brother, I'm late. Why do I always feel that there is something wrong with the counterfeit in the county governor's house? Brother Fu, what is going on?"
Fu Bao took a sip of hot tea and then said, "It's Fei Chong, who has been with me for eight years. I originally appointed him as the county magistrate when I went to Yue County this time to help me deal with local affairs. I never expected that he would be here." The thief turned out to be a remnant of the Fuxing Society. This was my fault. As far as I know, Fei Chong was connected with the remnants of the Yunhua Sect. Later, they used a trick to seize the magpie's nest and locked me in the dungeon for two years... ...By the way, while I was in the dungeon, what happened outside? Can you tell me?"
Mu Sheng, Yao Ji, and Guo Huan looked at each other in shock. What they had experienced since coming to Yue County was simply outrageous...
Guo Huan stepped forward and told Fu Bao concisely what happened after he was sent to prison and what the imperial envoy told them.
After hearing this, Fu Bao collapsed to the ground on the spot.
Fu Bao said to himself, "It's over, it's over. This bastard Fei Chong is doing evil in my name. He can't get away with this grave crime of confiscating the family and annihilating the clan... If it really involves the East Palace, then... ah... Fei Chong has mistaken me."
Fu Bao suddenly stood up and took Guo Huan's hand: "Brother Guo, please save me. You must speak to me in front of Cui Xiangguo and His Royal Highness."
Guo Huan couldn't bear it, and quickly helped him up and said, "Brother Fu! The key now is how to make amends. As long as you come forward, you will be able to calm down the situation and kill Fei Chong. After all, it can't be true if it's fake. In this way, you can follow me to contact him." Commander Feng, after all, is loyal to the imperial court, so he asked him to mobilize his troops to kill Fei Chong, his grandson."
Fu Bao finally calmed down and said repeatedly, "Okay, okay, that's it."
This county lieutenant is mainly responsible for training local garrison troops, arresting bandits, etc. His position is at the same level as the county guard. He has a silver seal and green ribbon and is also held by a senior military attaché sent by the court. Although he is at the same level, the county guard still has greater power. Local governments generally have a dual-chief system to achieve the purpose of using civil society to control military forces and to check and balance each other.
It was night, in the county magistrate's mansion, the fake magistrate Fei Chong was still tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, always feeling that something was going to happen.
He stood up and summoned the officials in the mansion, asking, "In the county jail, is there any movement at the granary?"
The clerk replied, "Reporting to your lord, I have been sending people to keep an eye on you, but there is no movement now."
Fei Chong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You will send more people to watch over the post house tomorrow. If there is any movement, report back at any time."
Then he waved his hand to let him go down. Fei Chong said to himself, "It's really strange. It's been three days. Why haven't there been any news from the people in Qingli Mountain? Could it be that something happened? That woman Zi Lan is so powerful. It’s very strong, so it shouldn’t be..."
In the early morning of the next day, when the sky was slightly bright, Mu Sheng, Fu Bao, Guo Huan, and Yao Ji disguised themselves and sneaked into Feng Junwei's mansion. They handed over invitations to pay their respects. About a quarter of an hour later, a servant led them in and led them to the lobby.
County Lieutenant Feng Chu came forward to greet Guo Huan and said, "Brother Guo comes to my humble residence. Feng is honored."
Guo Huan was a guest of the county governor, and his friend Feng Yan, the top leader, did not dare to treat him lightly.
Guo Huan smiled and said politely, "Brother Feng met me once at the county governor's house that day. I saw Brother Feng for the first time because he was so majestic and a hero among men. Guo came here specifically to make friends with me."
Feng Zun also showed his humility with a smile on his face, and quickly asked the servants to have food and tea.
Feng Zhu pointed at the three people wearing bamboo hats and covering their faces behind Guo Huan and said, "Brother Guo, who are these three people behind you?"
Guo Huan looked around, then suddenly turned solemn and said to Feng Pray, "I was about to tell the Lord Commander that something big has happened. Please see who this is first..."
Fu Bao stepped forward and took off his hat and face scarf to reveal his true face. Feng Chu was immediately surprised. He stepped forward and bowed, "Master Fu, what's wrong with you? Why did you come here in disguise? I have something to send you." It’s enough for a small official to come to my house and say hello.”
Fu Bao went straight to the point and clearly explained the cause and effect to Feng Yan. After knowing the truth, he told Feng Yan to Lei. He never expected that the county guard was actually lying.
Fu Bao said, "Lieutenant Feng, it's up to you whether you can turn the tide now. We have to send troops immediately to capture this bastard Fei Chong."
Feng prayed, "Master Fu, the situation is urgent right now. It's not that I don't want to send troops to quell the chaos. The court has regulations. If I don't see your command to mobilize troops, Master Fu, I have no right to do this."
Fu Bao said helplessly, "I know, but things are changing now. Where can I find the Tiger Talisman for you? As long as you catch that boy Fei Chong, everything will be revealed."
Feng Zhu also knew that things were subject to contingency, so he still said to Fu Bao, "Master Fu, you'd better write me a statement so that I can explain it to the court."
Fu Bao didn't waste any time. He wrote the statement fluently and handed the wooden slip to Feng Pray. Feng Pray looked at the handwriting on the wooden slip and said to himself, "No wonder, that fake county magistrate always goes to the book directly every time something happens." When talking to officials, they never write any documents. Government orders and documents are written by pen-writers. That’s how it is..."
Fu Bao said, "Fei Chong was afraid that his handwriting would be exposed when he wrote, making people suspicious."
Feng Yan immediately raised his hand to Fu Bao and said, "Master Fu, I will immediately mobilize troops outside the city. This bastard Fei Chong will definitely not be able to escape."
"Okay! Mr. Feng, if the matter is urgent, you must obey the authority and be quick."
In the governor's house, Fei Chong felt flustered all the time when he woke up in the morning. He always felt that something big was going to happen. He immediately called the officials for questioning, but he didn't find out the reason.
He walked around and thought for a long time, then went directly to the county jail. Under the guidance of the warden, he went straight to the innermost part, opened the cell door and saw that the prisoner was still there, and he was immediately relieved.
When he was about to go out, he suddenly felt something was wrong. He turned around and opened the mask and took a look. He was shocked and sweating profusely. He had been transferred. He saw that Fu Bao had run away. Now he just wanted to run out of here immediately. Not wanting to stay here for even a second anymore, he calmed down for a while, wiped the cold sweat from his face, and returned to the Sheriff's Mansion pretending to be nonchalant.
After Fei Chong thought for a long time, it seemed that there was no accident. This crazy woman Hua Zilan must have missed her. She probably had her head somewhere else. The person who came was evil. If he didn't run away, he would have to die. Thinking of this, he immediately Rush into the back room and prepare to run away...
Mu Sheng and Yao Ji had been waiting at Feng Chan's house to eat and chat, while Guo Huan and Fu Bao seemed to be discussing some countermeasures in the back room.
Yao Ji said to Mu Sheng, "Brother Liu, isn't the Moying Sect specializing in intelligence spying? How could they get involved in the muddy waters of the court? I remember that they never dealt with people in the officialdom before. "
After hearing this, Mu Sheng thought for a long time and said, "Maybe the benefits are big enough. After all, Fei Chong withheld Yue County's financial income for two years and spent some money to bribe them. It's enough. I heard that although Mo Yin Sect is just a Jianghu sect, But they have always been famous for recognizing money but not people. Maybe they even found out that the "Yuejun Prefect" colluded with the Fuxing Association. Otherwise, Fei Chong might have been causing trouble to Yuejun for many more years... …”
Yao Ji nodded slightly, convinced.
Yao Jidao said, "The imperial court has sent people to destroy the Moyingmen several times with little success. These people rely on a unique skill of human skin-masks. Their ability to change shapes is too strong and they are impossible to deal with."
This reminded Mu Sheng of his true identity, and he subconsciously touched the human skin-mask named Liu Zhang on his face...
At this moment, Feng Chu, wearing armor and holding a sword, walked into the lobby with great force. Guo Huan and Fu Bao just finished discussing the matter and walked out of the inner hall.
Feng Yan came straight over and bowed his hands to Fu Bao and said, "We have ordered all the troops and horses, and we are just waiting for Master Fu to give the order to send troops."
At this time, Fu Bao finally showed the majesty that a county governor should have and said to everyone, "Without further delay, immediately send troops to attack the county governor's mansion."
Everyone also rushed to the Sheriff's Mansion with the large army. When they arrived at the door, they found that the door was open. There were seven or eight officials of the County Sheriff's Mansion standing at the door. The first official saw County Governor Fu Bao wearing civilian clothes, followed by hundreds of troops. His face was full of disbelief.
