The third day.

The people from the Chiayi Hall came late, and brought several people who claimed to have committed crimes, and asked to surrender. They left 500 taels of silver and left. As for those people, they didn't seem to care whether they were alive or dead.

The attitudes of the two are different!

"This Chivalry Hall's attitude is a bit weird..." Xiao Yi felt a little confused.

Judging from the attitudes of the Little Knife Club and the Big Knife Gang, this killing of chickens to scare monkeys is relatively successful, but this Chivalry Hall...

Could it be said that there is a backer behind it?

Just as he was thinking about it secretly, a government official summoned him, and the county captain summoned him.

"Ha... this bitch has a really sharp nose!" Xiao Yi patted the banknote in his hand and cursed in his heart.

He knew that someone would be interested in this money, so he stood up, took the banknote, and walked to the back office.

…

County captain's study room.

"See you, sir." Xiao Yi bowed his hands and saluted.

"Well, that's right. The arrest squad has made outstanding achievements recently. It has upheld justice for the people of the county and arrested lawbreakers. Mr. Xiao, you should be credited with the first contribution!" the county lieutenant said with a warm look on his face and a smile.

After finishing speaking, he continued: "I heard that there are righteous men in this county who specially donated 2,500 taels of silver in order to strengthen the security of the county?"

"Exactly!" Xiao Yi replied calmly.

Snapped!

The county lieutenant slapped the table and said with a happy face: "Great, the autumn harvest is coming, and the tax gap this year is not small. The county magistrate has asked all ministries to donate generously. I have been worrying about this matter recently. It's difficult..."

"Although I am responsible for criminal justice and labor in a county, these are all hard work. There is no surplus. It is very difficult to support the normal operation of the headquarters."

"Thank you for your hard work, Lord County Lieutenant..." Xiao Yi had no choice but to say something against his will.

The county lieutenant added: "The arresting team has made great contributions this time. Each person will be rewarded with one tael. You will be rewarded heavily for coordinating the overall situation. You will be rewarded with 10 taels of silver. In addition, I will also ask for your credit from the county magistrate."

Xiao Yi was shocked and angry. He didn't expect this guy to be so dark-hearted. He said in a deep voice: "Sir, many people in the arresting team were seriously injured in this arrest of the criminals. I'm afraid this tael of silver will not even cover the cost of medicine."

It’s not even enough.”

"Sir, you cannot let your subordinates bleed and shed tears..."

The county captain was stunned. He was speechless at what he said.

"Well, then each person will be rewarded two taels, no more, otherwise I will not be able to explain to the county magistrate!"

"Sir, five taels!" Xiao Yi raised his head, stared at the other party with his eyes, and said in a deep voice.

His tone was full of determination, leaving no room for doubt, and an invisible aura radiated from him, making people feel anxious.

Being stared at by him like this, the county lieutenant shrank back unconsciously, feeling a little nervous.

"Start simulation!"

[Reminder: On the first day, County Lieutenant Feng Zitai came to the second house at the east end of Fugui Street in the city with a thousand taels of silver notes in his arms, and put the silver notes into the secret door of the study.]

[The next day, County Lieutenant Feng Zitai went to the back house of the county government, drank with the County Magistrate Hua Qingyuan, and handed the County Magistrate a thousand taels of silver notes, and the guests and hosts had a great time.]

[On the third day, County Lieutenant Feng Zitai left the county government office at noon, went to the second house at the east end of Fugui Street in the city, and had an affair with the county magistrate’s wife. He returned to the county government office near evening.]

[On the fourth day, County Lieutenant Feng Zitai went to Zuixianju for a banquet and accepted a thousand taels of silver notes from Chiayi Hall.]

[On the fifth day, County Lieutenant Feng Zitai secretly met with the third master of Heifeng Village at the first house in the south of Fushou Street in the city and accepted a thousand taels of silver notes. 】

…

[On the twentieth day, County Lieutenant Feng Zitai went to Tianxiang Tower to drink and stayed overnight in Tianxiang Tower.]

…

[On the 40th day, County Lieutenant Feng Zitai went to Shen’s house for a banquet.]

…

[On the ninetieth day, County Lieutenant Feng Zitai was promoted to Linxiang County Magistrate.]

…

Seeing this, he immediately understood what the Chivalry Hall relied on. It turned out to be the person in front of him.

"Then it's up to you!" Nono said, trying to calm himself down.

Xiao Yi took out two thousand taels of silver notes from his arms, put them on the table, then bowed his hands and said, "Young man, please excuse me!"

Return to the catching team.

Liu Mingliang, who was rushing around in a hurry, saw him coming and immediately came to greet him!

"What's wrong? What happened?"

"Outside the county government office, there is a pair of old women who cannot kneel down, complaining about their grievances, and shouting that they want to see you!"

Xiao Yi was immediately furious and said coldly: "There are still gangs who dare to commit crimes? This is seeking death!"

"No...it's from the Chivalry Hall..."

At that moment, Liu Mingliang quickly told the whole story. It turned out that the couple had a daughter in their old age, and they usually regarded their daughter as the apple of their eye.

But a while ago, when this girl went to the temple to offer incense, she was attracted by the young master of the Chivalry Hall, and he took her away by force.

"Didn't you send it back?" Xiao Yi asked.

"Sent back." Liu Mingliang nodded, and sighed: "It's crazy..."

"Grass!"

Xiao Yi stood up, walked out, and came to the outside of the county captain.

I saw an old couple, about fifty years old, in shabby clothes, kneeling on the ground, kowtowing to the county government office. Under the sunlight, their gray hair hurt their eyes!

Next to the couple, there was kneeling a foolish, timid girl with disheveled hair and an unkempt face. Although her face could not be seen clearly, she looked like a beautiful girl from her figure.

Xiao Yi stood there quietly, his eyes narrowed slightly, his heart was so blocked that he almost felt like he couldn't breathe!

Seeing him appear, someone in the crowd recognized him and immediately shouted loudly.

"Xiao Catcher...Xiao Catcher is here!"

"Xiao Catcher, the girls of the Gao family are so miserable, you must seek justice for them!"

"Just be okay, Xiao Catcher..."

When the old couple saw Xiao Yi coming out, they didn't say anything. They just kowtowed more urgently. Their foreheads were already black and bleeding continuously.

"Get up quickly, I'll give you an explanation!"

Xiao Yi quickly stepped forward, helped the two of them up, and said softly.

Although his tone was light, it was full of firmness and determination.

…

That night!

Xiao Yi, dressed in black and masked, came outside the Chivalry Hall.

He jumped up, like a civet cat, and landed firmly on the wall. With a tap of his feet, he flew out like a roc spreading its wings, flying three feet in the air and landing on the ridge of the roof.

Without stopping, he went straight to the back of the Chivalry Hall.

He was light and dexterous, moving around on various rooftops at an astonishing speed without making any movement, and disappeared in the front yard in the blink of an eye.

In the largest courtyard behind the Chiayi Hall, a guard at the door suddenly fell to the ground, but his body was stopped by a foot and slowly placed on the ground.

At the same time, the guard on the other side of the door felt his neck tighten and his mouth was directly covered.

"Well!"

"Shut up and be honest!" Xiao Yi said in a cold voice: "I ask, you answer! If you don't cooperate, I will send you to see the King of Hell!"

The guard nodded happily. After all, he was just a gatekeeper and was not very loyal to the Chiayi Hall.

"Where is your young master?"

"The young hall master is not here. He is in the small courtyard next to it. This is our hall master's yard." The guard was very knowledgeable and told everything he knew.

"What is your hall master's cultivation level?" Xiao Yi asked again.

"Eighth-level warrior...well..."
Chapter completed!
