Damianhu Prison is the only building under the direct jurisdiction of the government. It is divided into three areas, including the main prison, the sergeants' tents, the school grounds, and the government office, all located here.
Today, there was a lot of excitement at the entrance of the Yamen.
But he said that five people smuggled in in the middle of the night yesterday. They were very capable and were all masters of the Foundation Establishment Realm. They sneaked through the level, they must be planning something evil.
The main responsibility of the Damianhu Yamen is to obtain information about prisoners, monsters and pedestrians. It has rich experience in this area. Such a blatant smuggling is unforgivable.
Sure enough, the judge got the news and led a team of troops to capture them all night.
When I met the five people at night, they were sneaking around and didn't know what they were doing.
They didn't want to submit, but seeing that there were so many government officials, it was difficult to solve the problem by taking action, and it would easily escalate the matter, so they didn't resist.
Seeing this posture, the judge thought that a big battle was inevitable, but he did not take action and chose to surrender and negotiate.
This made the judge even more suspicious of their motives.
They claimed that they were servants of the Second Master of Tianfu and had important matters to attend to. However, they did not have official documents in hand and were afraid of missing the matter, so they did not say hello to the Yamen.
The person who can be called the second master in Tianfu should be the inspector. He has a great status and a high rank, but now he is a sinecure with little power.
However, how could the judge easily believe the empty talk and put these five people in the cell directly.
When a group of people came out of the cell, they encountered a flurry of activity. They heard the sound of horse hooves in the distance, and merchants and civilians along the street hurriedly fled.
The judge frowned, where did he come from? How dare you ride a horse in the street. Taking a closer look, I saw dazzling silver light, handsome horses galloping, and people approaching.
The knight in front got off his horse, pushed aside the surrounding officials arrogantly, waved his hand, and a token flew into the judge's hand.
A middle-aged man did not move on horseback. He had bright armor and an arrogant attitude. He was obviously the leader of this group of knights.
"I am Liu Zong, Lieutenant of the Tianfu Middle School Military Academy. I came here to handle the case on the orders of the Inspector. I just heard that you arrested a few suspicious people. They are the servants of the Inspector's family. These people have important things to do. Take them all. Let it go."
Being so bossy, even the school captain was too arrogant, and the judge also had a temper. He was so angry that he refused to do as he was told, even if he was overpowered by his official position.
The judge turned a deaf ear to the captain's words, and his servants also pretended not to hear them, and gathered together to block the opponent's way. The two parties were immediately at war with each other.
How can you let outsiders bully you in front of your own home?
The judge thought that even if the official documents of the captain were complete, he would not have produced them at this time. He didn't follow the procedures and wanted to order me to do things with just a token. No matter how hard I tried, I wouldn't suffer any loss.
The captain sneered in his heart when he saw that the judge had made no move and obviously did not want to cooperate.
This mud-legged guy from the backwoods still dared to have a temper. He deliberately suppressed the judge's momentum and shouted loudly.
"If you don't comply, do you want to be beheaded?"
This loud shout contained the majestic Qi of his profound realm and was deafening. He was in his mid-teens and had accumulated more than thirty years of vitality at least. His voice shocked the judges and government officials in front of him so much that stars appeared in their eyes and blood spewed from their mouths.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
The white-armored knights around them also roared, and the sound of killing was loud. More than a dozen monks at the Foundation Establishment Realm mobilized their true energy together, and then used ordinary fighting methods on the market, creating a huge momentum.
With this shout, half of the lake heard their voice, and I don't know how many people were alarmed at once.
The faces of the government servants in front of them were pale, and their legs and feet were weak and paralyzed on the ground. The vendors and pedestrians on the roadside were suddenly overwhelmed, and the streets became chaotic.
The captain laughed and felt quite happy.
"If you don't want to die, do things quickly."
"Aren't you a yamen? Quickly seal the gates everywhere and control all the passers-by. I want to examine them one by one."
"Like those who carry heavy burdens, there must be something wrong with their heavy steps."
The judge gritted his teeth and said pitifully: "Sealing the city to investigate people is not something that I, a young judge, can decide. Sir Xiaowei, you should just follow the rules and go to the Yamen to discuss it with me, Shangguan Wu Sikou."
"My lord, with your profound cultivation, you want to show off your prestige in my big lake. I'm afraid it won't be possible, so I'd better think about it."
The captain sneered and ignored the judge's words. With a wave of his hand, the knights dismounted and actually wanted to arrest the pedestrians nearby.
The commotion here has long attracted the attention of many people in the Yamen.
A man in a long robe walked towards the yamen. His robe was shabby but dignified.
"Master Xiaowei, we'd better go to the Yamen first and discuss the matter of sealing off the city and arresting people after discussion."
He didn't wait for the captain to answer, and then said to the judge: "There is some decoction in the kitchen. Let's take the brothers back to drink it and cultivate ourselves."
When the judge saw Shangguan coming, he felt relieved, led the Yamen servants, and helped each other away.
The captain didn't like his attitude, "Are you the Sikou named Wu?"
Wu Sikou didn't comment, turned back, and made way to the Yamen. He was too lazy to talk nonsense to this man.
"Why, you people in Da Mianhu are all mutes. You can only speak after being beaten."
The captain sneered, raised his riding crop and whipped it.
Wu Sikou stretched out his hand to take it, and held the riding whip firmly in his hand, his body motionless.
The captain tried to pull out the riding whip but couldn't do it. He was sitting on the horse's back and couldn't use all his strength. The warrior was no weaker than him. If he really wanted to wrestle, he would have to fall to the ground.
But dismounting at this time is giving the opponent a chance. The opponent will definitely pull him, and he will be the one who makes a fool of himself. I was frozen there for a moment and had no choice but to hold on.
The two sides were wrestling with their true energy, and the horse under the Colonel's crotch was overwhelmed and gradually became restless, and finally almost overturned the Colonel.
"It's because your legs are so weak that you, the captain, can't even control your mount."
Although Wu Sikou was sarcastic, he was telling the truth. Masters usually cooperate with their mounts tacitly. If you are a soldier of the frontier army, the combination of the knight and the mount will only make you stronger. However, unlike this captain, riding on the horse will limit the display of strength, which is ridiculous.
"I have released the five servants that the Captain is looking for. They are in the Yamen. You'd better come in and talk."
The captain suffered a loss at this time. Although he felt uncomfortable, he had no choice but to go to the Yamen first to avoid losing face again in public.
Wu Sikou did not go to the main hall, but led the captain to a side room. From a distance, he saw people inside drinking and singing, apparently holding a banquet.
Wu Sikou straightened his clothes, bowed and walked in, and said to the man in the purple robe at the head.
"Master Marquis, I've been brought here."

You Ziji came to Damian Lake again. He had been searching for Xiaogou in the wild forest for more than 20 days, but there was still no trace of Xiaogou.
The market was noisy during the day. You Ziji hid aside and did not participate. He was a little uncomfortable with the bustle here.
He didn't know anyone in Da Mian Lake. After thinking about it, he only remembered the little furry fox who wanted to fool him.
You Ziji came to the small alley before, and was confused by the twists and turns. The little fox did not see it, but he saw two strong men trying to stuff a living thing into a sack.
You Ziji used his ear sense and heard only whining and screaming in the bag. He thought that he must have been surrounded by a group of monsters like me at that time, but he was caught because of his lack of strength.
You Ziji didn't waste any time. He stood up and kicked out two strong men one after another.
The strong man's face was full of fear, his face was trembling, and he refused to leave, "You brat, mind your own business, do you know who we are?"
You Ziji didn't answer. He raised his foot again, but it hit the empty space. It turned out that it was the two strong men who were so frightened that they rolled and fled.
The man in the sack was still struggling, and You Ziji stepped forward to untie the rope.
Take a quick look, oh! He is still an acquaintance, just the furry fox he is looking for.
"Little Fox!"
"Don't call me little fox, call me Old Hu." The little mixed-haired fox seemed to dislike this little word. He didn't know his own situation, so he retorted first.
"Lao Hu?"
"Why were you put in a sack?" You Ziji asked.
After holding it in the sack for a long time, Lao Hu finally regained his breath. He felt that the person in front of him was very familiar, but he really couldn't remember it at this time.
People who can't remember are usually passers-by, and they must have been tricked by him before. He didn't dare to talk nonsense, he just laughed.
When You Ziji saw Lao Hu hesitating, he just said he was frightened and his thoughts were a little confused for a moment. It seemed that he needed to concentrate and refresh himself. You Ziji didn't waste time and went straight to the topic.
"You said that if I have any problems in Damian Lake, I can come to you to solve them."
"Thank you for remembering what I said. What do you want from me? I want to collect money." Lao Hu didn't expect that someone would actually believe his lies.
Seeing that he was still a little confused, You Ziji wanted to help him cheer up.
"You, don't scare me with that big fist. If you have something to say, just say it. Don't be so rude."
"How can you tell if a person is out of the city?" You Ziji put down his flaming fist. He guessed that Xiao Gou might have left Huanglin.
"Want to know if people are out of the city? That's not easy."
"You only need to find the archives of Damian Lake Yamen. It records all the people and monsters who come in and out of Damian Lake."
"As for how you want to go, it has nothing to do with me."
"Thanks, Lao Hu."
Lao Hu looked at You Ziji leaving and finally felt relieved. After the disaster, he cherished the air that he had never cared about before.
He took a deep breath, but didn't feel any comfort at all.
A jade hand strangled Old Hu's neck, and the sharp blade pressed against his back.
"If I have any problems in Da Mian Lake, can I come to you to solve them?"
…………
After receiving the advice, You Ziji wandered around the market, and after a while, he came to the gate of the Yamen.
The conflict between the school captain and the yamen had been settled, and the nearby merchants dared to come out to clean up the mess. The whole street was harmed by those knights.
The street suddenly became deserted. There were no pedestrians except the vendors. Only a few salesmen slowly turned into the alley and disappeared.
You Ziji generously checked the surrounding environment and checked out the locations.
He waited until night, when a curfew was imposed in the city, and he was finally able to move.
