In the evening, a group of figures gradually appeared on the horizon outside the east gate of Pingliang County.
The people waiting at the door shouted excitedly.
"Look, are those the men led by the great master?"
"Yes, yes, it should be the eldest master and the others!"
"Master, they are back..."
"Master, they are back..."
The entire Pingliang County was waiting at the gate of the city, and everyone cheered with joy.
At the same time, Zhou Yi also saw his own Pingliang County from a distance.
Suddenly Zhou Yi realized that the flag he had used to suppress bandits had not been confiscated.
Zhou Yi hurriedly ordered Deng Tong, "Hurry up and put away our bloody Li-character flag."
When Deng Tong heard this, he immediately put the bloody Li character flag into his baggage.
"Everyone, please listen to me. You are all serious soldiers now. I am not allowed to relax any of the three major disciplines and eight points of attention. Only when this bloody inspirational flag is raised, you are the others. identity!"
"Have you heard everything clearly?" Zhou Yi asked with a loud shout.
Wu Laoliu and other soldiers heard this and immediately responded in unison: "I understand!"
After all, the image of a leader must always maintain an upright and majestic image.
Li Feiyu's identity can only be used to do some dark things. Things like revenge against enemies are very suitable for the head of the Li family to handle.
Zhou Yi led the team closer and closer to Pingliang County, and soon they saw the city gate and the crowds of people at the gate.
Getting closer, Zhou Yi and the others even heard the noisy gongs and drums.
Zhou Yi, who was riding on the horse, secretly thought to himself: "I don't know if the pig-headed county magistrate Liu Datong was killed by the people of Pingliang County."
"If there is no water in the sacred well, evildoers will cause trouble." This jingle was actually spread secretly by Zhou Yi before he left.
Don't underestimate this confusing rumor. After all, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang were able to cut down trees into soldiers, raise poles into flags, and set off a mighty peasant uprising by imitating the barking of foxes.
Nowadays, it is not easy for Zhou Yi to use the "miracle" of the spring well to kill a small county magistrate.
What's more, in addition to public opinion building, Master Sun Yufu was actually a knife secretly arranged by Zhou Yi. Otherwise, Sun Yufu would not have worked so hard to provoke Qian Dutou to kill Liu Datong.
Zhou Yi rode his horse and approached the city. He immediately heard the people shouting: "When the county magistrate comes, there will be blue sky! Pingliang County will be at peace!"
At this time, a shirtless man holding a black box and carrying a few thorny thorns rushed out of the crowd and knelt on one knee in front of Zhou Yi's horse.
Who could that person be if he wasn't Qian Yong, Qian's head catcher?
Zhou Yi glanced at Qian Captou, who was kneeling under the horse, and then at Master Sun, who was winking at him in the crowd. Zhou Yi immediately knew that his strategy was successful.
Zhou Yi asked knowingly: "What are you doing, Mr. Qian? If you are not assisting Magistrate Liu in the yamen, why are you here shirtless and performing some kind of performance art?"
Mr. Qian took a long sigh and said, "Sir, what is in this box is Liu Datong's head!"
Zhou Yi pretended to be stunned, then covered his face and cried.
Zhou Yi took advantage of his wide cuffs to cover his face and secretly sprinkled the sand hidden in his eyes from the corners of his sleeves.
In just a moment, Zhou Yi's eyes were filled with tears.
Zhou Yi asked angrily: "How could this be? We have only been missing for a few days, how come County Magistrate Liu is separated from us as gods and humans!"
"Killing an official is a major crime among the Yi clan. Chief Qian, please tell the truth. Who is the thief who is so audacious? I will cut his body into thousands of pieces to report to County Magistrate Liu's spirit."
Qian Yong was also frightened by Zhou Yi's superb acting skills, and could only reply tremblingly: "Yes...yes...it's the villain himself!"
Zhou Yi stared angrily and asked again: "What?"
Qian Yong quickly told everything about Liu Datong's stealing of the rations from the warehouse and the forced expropriation of food in violation of the imperial order. He hoped that Zhou Yi would take it for the sake of the people and not implicate his family members.
But he didn't expect Zhou Yi to look up to the sky and roar again. "Earth, what do you call earth if you don't distinguish between good and evil? Heaven, you are wrong about the wise and foolish, and you are in vain for heaven!"
"You actually let me, Magistrate Liu of Pingliang County, suffer this disaster. Li Feiyu, Li Feiyu, I, Pingliang County, and you are at odds with each other."
Grand Master Zhou Yi’s sudden words made Qian Yong’s head buzz, and he subconsciously pointed at himself and said: “Sir, I’m talking about the dog thief Liu Datong and his master I killed, not Li Feiyu! "
"What? You said that County Magistrate Liu was killed by Li Feiyu and his gang of thieves when he was measuring land ten miles away in Pingliang County?"
Qian Captou still didn't react, thinking that Mr. Zhou Yi was mentally disturbed because he was in extreme shock.
Not only Qian Captou was shocked, but Wu Laoliu and others who went out to "suppress bandits" with Zhou Yi were also shocked.
Who is Li Feiyu? Isn't Li Feiyu the gangster number of our county magistrate?
He and others had just returned from robbing a rich man's home in Pingjiang County under the name Li Feiyu.
Qian Yong waved his hand in front of Zhou Yi again and said desperately: "My lord, this is not Li Feiyu, he is a villain. I chopped down that Liu Zhutou!"
I have seen stupid people, but I have never seen Qian Yong so stupid.
Zhou Yi rolled his eyes at him again and continued his performance: "What? There are more than 500 thieves under Li Feiyu?"
"Captain Qian, you were stabbed dozens of times to save Magistrate Liu, but you still failed to save Magistrate Liu from Li Feiyu's knife?"
Sun Yufu, who was behind Qian Yong, couldn't stand it anymore, and shouted in the crowd: "Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Zhou knew everything. It was the traitor Li Feiyu who took advantage of our county magistrate Liu to go out to measure the fields and killed him. Qian Capt. I tried my best to save Magistrate Liu. But God failed!"
With Master Sun's reminder, who among the common people present did not understand that Mr. Zhou Yi was talking to Qian Captou like this, and all he was doing was colluding with Qian Captou to confess.
The most important thing is that Mr. Zhou Yi is still mobilizing the whole city to conspire together.
Only now did Qian Yong realize that Mr. Zhou Yi was completely helping himself by speaking like that. He was so stupid just now and kept admitting that he killed Liu Datong.
Originally, he wanted to annihilate his own three clans, but now under the arrangement of the eldest master, he suddenly had a scapegoat - Li Feiyu.
This was a great favor to keep him alive, and Qian Baotou secretly swore in his heart that he would find an opportunity to repay Mr. Zhou for his kindness in the future.
Qian Yong woke up and quickly changed his words: "Yes, that's right, it was the thief Li Feiyu who killed our County Magistrate Liu. Anyone who offends our Pingliang County will be punished no matter how far away we are. We in Pingliang County swear to fight against that thief Li Feiyu." !”
