"Two officers, we have arrived at Heifeng Village. Can you help us open the shackles?"
Feng Zhengchu asked with a smile.
"Open the shackles?"
One of the government officials sneered, "Feng Zhengchu, you have offended Mr. Zhao and still want to survive. Isn't it too naive?"
"What do you mean?"
Feng Zhengchu said in surprise: "Magistrate Huang promised to let us go at Heifeng Village."
"Do you want to go against the county order?"
"No violation?"
The officer said: "We encountered bandits, and you two were killed by the bandits."
"We two government officials were defeated and ran away."
"Aren't these just following the county magistrate's instructions? There is nothing wrong with it?"
"you!"
Feng Zhengchu stared angrily, but there was nothing he could do.
Their hands and feet were tied, and the two of them were just fish to be slaughtered.
On the other hand, another yamen servant quietly walked up to the yamen servant who had spoken before.
Taking advantage of the opponent's unpreparedness, he punched the opponent in the neck.
"Fourth, what are you doing?"
Only then did the yamen officer react and asked coldly.
"Wang Ba, what else do I want to ask you?"
The fourth child also raised a cold eyebrow, "What are you doing?"
"Didn't we agree to get rid of the Feng family and his son near Heifeng Village?"
Wang Ba asked doubtfully: "Besides, before leaving, Team Leader Zhang specifically told us that you have promised well, do you want to go back on your word?"
"Who does Zhang Bantou count?"
The fourth child said disdainfully: "We are in Yun'an County and should obey the county magistrate's orders."
"The county magistrate asked us to release the Feng family and his son, so we will release them."
"Magistrate Huang is about to leave office, but Captain Zhang will not leave. Now that you are disobeying Captain Zhang, aren't you afraid that Captain Zhang will settle the score with you later?"
"Magistrate Huang promised me to take me with him when he leaves, and promised to give me the position of head of the government office."
The fourth child laughed and said, "That's the head of the yamen team. He can get dozens of extra cents every month, and he can also command a bunch of subordinates. I feel comfortable just thinking about it."
"Feng Zhengchu, what are you doing standing still?"
"I stopped Wang Ba, run away for your life."
Feng Zhengchu and his son didn't even bother to say thank you, turned around and fled in a hurry.
It's a pity that their hands and feet are tied with shackles, and they can't run as fast as the old lady hobbling on crutches.
After a few minutes, we have only advanced about five meters.
"Is the time now?"
Wen Qi asked Zhao Ping.
Zhao Ping was stunned. He never thought that this would happen.
But the timing was right, so he nodded.
Wen Qi jumped out and shouted loudly, "Stop, I built this mountain and planted this road. I want to pass by here and leave the money to buy the road."
After saying that, Wen Qi felt something was wrong again.
Now I still think they are not bandits, but escorts.
And it’s not a calamity right now.
Zhao Ping, "..."
This brother-in-law is a bit out of his mind.
Even Li Hu looked at Wen Qi with disgust, as if to say, this guy is not as smart as me.
"A good man has his life spared, a good man has his life spared."
Feng Zhengchu and Feng Junren both knelt down and begged for mercy.
"We have money, hero, open our shackles, and all the money we have is yours."
"Pooh!"
Wen Qi spat, "Master, I don't want any money."
"Open your eyes and see who I am?"
Feng Zhengchu and Feng Junren both opened their eyes and looked at Wen Qi. He was tall and strong, holding a ghost-headed sword, and his face was ferocious. He looked like a bandit.
As a medical officer, how could he know the bandits?
They all shook their heads.
"Do you still remember the Wen family in Qianmen Village?"
Wen Qi added: "You designed to harm the Wen family, causing all of them to be beheaded."
"And young master, I am the orphan of the Wen family, and my name is Wen Qi."
"If I come here to block the road today, I will kill you two to avenge our Wen family."
With that said, Wen Qi raised the ghost-headed sword.
Click, click.
With two crisp sounds, the heads of Feng Zhengchu and Feng Junren both fell to the ground, and blood spurted everywhere.
Wen Qi didn't care, picked up the head, put it in the east position, then knelt down and kowtowed several times.
"Father, mother, my unfilial son has finally avenged you."
After paying homage, Wen Qi pulled off a piece of cloth from Feng Junren's body and wrapped the two heads.
This is Zhao Ping's request.
He planned to use his head to scare Huang Fengnian.
Lao Si and Wang Ba, who were fighting at the side, had stopped fighting long ago.
Wang Ba breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as the Feng family father and son are dead, it can be regarded as completing Zhang He's instructions.
As Wen Qi approached carrying the head, the fourth child fell to his knees with a plop.
He begged: "Heroes, we are only responsible for escorting the Feng family and his son, and we are official officials. Can you please spare us?"
Snapped!
Wen Qi slapped him on the face.
He said coldly: "You were the one who wanted to let the Feng family and his son go just now?"
"I, I also obeyed the county magistrate's instructions."
The fourth child cried, "If you want to kill, just kill the county magistrate. I'm just a small government servant, I can't be the master."
"snort!"
Wen Qi snorted coldly, "A small government official follows the example of others and forms cliques..."
I can't say any more.
Wen Qi subconsciously looked into the weeds beside him.
Zhao Ping had no choice but to answer: "Form a party for personal gain."
"right."
Wen Qi continued: "A small government official imitates others to form cliques for personal gain."
"Don't you know, mantis hunting..."
Wen Qi couldn't speak anymore.
"The mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole follows behind."
"right."
Wen Qi said: "The mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole follows behind. We are the oriole, but you are the mantis."
"Now it's time for the oriole to eat the mantis."
Is this word used here?
Zhao Ping was too lazy to dwell on this issue. He just hoped that the school would get started as soon as possible so that Wen Qi could become literate.
Otherwise, this guy will have no educated people around him in the future, and he will be choked to death because he cannot speak idioms.
"Mr. Zhao, why are you here?"
Wang Ba recognized Zhao Ping and said in surprise.
He glanced at Wen Qi again and rolled his eyes a few times, becoming even more confused.
Wen Qi confirmed that he was a bandit.
Why would you, a man of such high moral character and respect, get mixed up with bandits?
"I also received news that Huang Fengnian was going to release the Feng family and his son, so I blocked the road here to kill them."
Zhao Ping did not hide anything and continued: "You did a very good job."
"Here you go, buy some tea later."
Zhao Ping took out a tael of silver.
Wang Ba knew that Zhao Ping was generous and polite, so he accepted the money and admired Zhao Ping even more.
Although they clearly have a high reputation, they still treat everyone equally.
It would be great if he could be the magistrate of Yun'an County.
Wang Ba vaguely expected.
The fourth child also seemed to see hope, and hurriedly knelt down in front of Zhao Ping to hug Zhao Ping's trouser legs.
However, Li Hu kicked him away with one kick.
"You bitch, you want to touch Brother Ping? Aren't you afraid of dirtying Brother Ping's shoes?"
"I……"
Zhao Ping was quite speechless.
Why does this sound so like what a villain said?
The fourth child didn't mind, and kowtowed in the distance to beg for mercy, "Mr. Zhao, all this really has nothing to do with me. It was all what the county magistrate ordered me to do."
"If I don't do it, he will kick me out of the county government."
"Without this job, I can't even support my family."
"You have an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child at home. You really can't afford to lose your job."
"Mr. Zhao, please, please spare me this time."
Zhao Ping didn't believe a word he said.
But he didn't want to commit random acts of murder.
After all, the people of the Dawei Dynasty were already suffering enough.
They are just trying to survive in the cracks. Although they are villains, they are understandable.
I just want to stay away from this kind of people in the future. There is no need to kill them all.
So Zhao Ping pretended to be thoughtful and said: "It's not impossible to spare you."
"But you have to do something for me."
"whats the matter?"
The fourth child seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and said eagerly: "As long as the villain can do it, I promise to do it without any hesitation."
"Help me testify and accuse Huang Fengnian of letting the Feng family and his son go without permission."
Zhao Ping said.
The fourth child was dumbfounded and cried: "Mr. Zhao, the people are suing the officials and they want to kill Wei Bang."
"If the thirty-year plank falls, the villain's life will be lost."
"Moreover, County Magistrate Huang only gave me verbal instructions to do this, and he did not leave any real evidence. If I can't sue him, he will torture me to death."
"You're not the one suing."
Zhao Ping corrected him: "It's me who sues."
"When the time comes, all you have to do is come forward and testify."
"And I can guarantee you that Huang Fengnian will fall, and he will not have any chance to stand up."
Really?
The fourth child had a look of disbelief on his face.
Zhao Ping had no choice but to take a strong dose of medicine, "Believe it or not, but this is your only chance to survive."
Then he said to Wang Ba: "Wang Ba, will you follow me to Xiping Village?"
"I'll send a car to take you back to the county in the afternoon, which will save you the hassle of running back and forth."
"good."
Wang Ba readily accepted.
The last time I went to Xiping Village, I visited Hu Xingye’s home.
He had a full meal and meat at Zhao Ping's house, and he is still thinking about it now.
Now that Zhao Ping has invited me, there is no reason not to go.
Then, the group of people rode away, leaving the fourth child alone kneeling in the wind.
Are you running? Or run?
Zhao Ping didn't care what Lao Si was thinking, and whether he ran or not had little impact on him.
Anyway, the opportunity is given to the other party, and he has no control over what the other party chooses.
He wanted to go home and gather people to deal with Huang Fengnian, the potential biggest cancer in Yun'an County, today.
