"Okay."

At the same time, some of his subordinates came and reported: "Commander Qu, we have found Xue Bai. He is at the county office. But... the county magistrate ordered that he not be touched."

"Why?" Li San'er was surprised.

"The villain doesn't know, but the county magistrate sent someone to warn the county magistrate, saying that this is the end of the matter tonight."

"Weird."

Li San'er raised his head again and thought.

Although he came from a rough background, he had great ambitions. He began to read and write in the past two years, and often used his brain to think about problems, because he would also be an official in the future, and he must be a high official.

"Is he handsome?"

"I understand." Li Saner thought very seriously, and after a while he came back to his senses and murmured: "If you are an official, you are a mother if you have breasts."

"Qu Shuai, what do you mean?"

"The county magistrate was negotiated by Xue Bai. To put it bluntly, it was 'coercion and inducement'."

Li San'er somewhat despised Lu Linghao, an official who only looked at the situation and had no persistence, and had no bones.

The next moment, someone hurried over. Looking through the firelight, they saw that they were the people around the county magistrate Gao Chong.

"What does the county magistrate say? Is this just a matter of following the county magistrate's orders?"

"The county magistrate asked Qu Shuai to send more people to the post house and get rid of Xue Bai quickly."

"But the county magistrate?"

"Don't worry about the county magistrate. Xue Bai sent people to pretend to be royal relatives and raise dead soldiers. The evidence is conclusive. Killing him is a done deal, so Magistrate Lu can only hold his nose and admit it."

"I understand." Li San'er obeyed the Gao brothers' resolute attitude, waved the people around him and said, "You can go to the post house to help Gao County Cheng."

"yes."

"For the rest, follow me to the county office and let the county magistrate see what is done."

A group of people rushed to the county office, and someone came to report the news on the way: "Commander Qu, Xue Bai went to Sanguan Temple Lane."

"What is he doing there?"

"Still trying to show official power, arrest those Guo family traffickers again."

"I really think I am the county captain of Yanshi."

Li San'er couldn't help but smile.

He understood Xue Bai's thoughts and felt that he had reached an agreement with the county magistrate and could do whatever he needed to do. This is what officials are like, they always feel that problems can be solved by using some resourcefulness and negotiating some conditions.

But he wanted to make Xue Bai understand that this was not Chang'an. In the realm of Yanshi, no amount of conspiracies and tricks were of any use. In the end, it was Li Saner's sword that greeted him.

Li San'er didn't show much murderous intent on his face, and said leisurely: "He can die in the same place as Wang Yansiam."

~~

Sanguanmiao Lane.

Some of the slaves rescued from the dark house were placed here, anxiously waiting for their fate to change.

Among them was a woman named Hongxia, who was a slave at Luhun Villa. When she was questioned, she heard the county captain say, "When the time comes, we can set up a factory and live a new life." She has been looking forward to it.

suddenly.

"Bang!"

The courtyard door was kicked open, and the traffickers from the secret house rushed in. The slaves screamed and fled in all directions.

The men laughed loudly and rushed in to catch people. Before Hongxia had time to run, someone grabbed her hair and slapped her in the face. Then she was pushed to the ground and the other party began to tear off her clothes.

"Let me go!"

"Haha, you don't recognize me anymore. I picked you up at Luhun Villa. You're a slut who seduces young men... call me, you're a slut."

Hongxia thought to herself that she was not a prodigal, so she opened her mouth to bite the opponent, but was immediately punched hard again, hitting her head on the ground and feeling dizzy.

The next moment, someone shouted: "Run! The county captain is here again!"

"..."

"According to the order of the county magistrate, take all these prisoners back to the prison!"

Amidst the shouts, Qi Chou was the first to run up, with the aura of a squad leader, and said: "Who dares to run? Squat down for me!"

In fact, Lu Linghao, the county magistrate, is still very intimidating to ordinary people. Some people were so frightened that they squatted down with their heads in their hands, while others turned around and ran away.

Hongxia got up in a panic, trying hard to cover her body with the rags she was wearing. When she looked up, Lieutenant Xue County had strode in, and she immediately burst into tears.

Xue Bai heard the crying and ordered people to find some clothes to put on these women.

"County Lieutenant." Qi Chou hurriedly reported: "Eight escaped and five were captured."

"I heard that there was a man who led these traffickers and was very familiar with this house. Was he involved in the killing of Wang Yansiam?"

Qi Chou responded: "That's Xu Ba. He's not selling slaves for the Guo family. He's a subordinate of Li San'er from the Cao Gang... He should have been involved in the killing of Wang County Lieutenant."

"You settle here."

After Xue Bai said that, he took Jiang Hai, Xue Xin and others to chase him. As he walked, he said: "We must capture Xu Ba. This person participated in the killing of officials and is an important witness."

At this time, the city gate was closed, and whistles sounded occasionally in the streets, like birdsong.

Xu Ba and several traffickers fled in a hurry. They had no direction at all and almost fled eastward. However, a few boys jumped out from the street and pointed at them and shouted, which scared them and they fled westward.

After bumping into pedestrians several times, they thought of a hiding place...

Xue Bai followed the birdsong and chased him slowly.

There is another strange thing. Both Gao Chong and Li San'er are looking for him, but he keeps going back and forth in this county and has never been caught.

In short, after chasing southwest for a while, a half-grown child suddenly ran past in the night and said: "County Lieutenant, we are here."

…

Li San'er also heard the chirping of birds. After several times, he suddenly realized that it was Ren Mulan's thieves who were spreading the news.

"Xue Bai ran away, let's chase him."

He walked very quickly, chasing after the birdsong, and gradually reached the southwest corner.

From a distance, he could already see Xue Bai's blue official robe turning down the alley next to Xingfu Temple and chasing Xu Ba into the sealed house.

Li San'er chased after him, knowing that there was no other entrance or exit on the surface, so he had someone block it.

"Xue County Lieutenant, you are an official. Why did you run away when you saw me? Didn't you show off your official power to me a few days ago?"

"Li San'er?"

"Okay, I told you that I want to make friends with Lieutenant Xue County." Li San'er said leisurely.

You can use the county magistrate to scare others, but you can't scare him and Gao Chong.

He brought more than 20 people with him and signaled eight of them to go into the alley to chase Xue Bai, while he followed behind with a knife in his hand.

Suddenly, his ears twitched and he swung his knife to chop upwards.

Above the alley, there was a man holding a knife between two walls. His ankle was cut off by Li San'er's knife.

The man fell to the ground and screamed in agony.

Li San'er raised his knife with both hands and struck him with a slash, killing him directly.

"Ambush me?!"

"kill!"

There were five other figures jumping down from above, holding swords to kill Li San'er.

Xue Bai pretended to chase people, but actually used those children to force Xu Ba into a secret house with the purpose of ambushing Li San'er.

But at this time, there were many people around Li San'er, who had extraordinary martial arts skills, and they were all his people inside and outside Yanshi County. Since he saw through this little ambush trick, he could quickly mobilize people as long as he avoided it.

"Kill over, Xue Bai is inside."

Li San'er, however, was a very talented person and was bold. At this time, he did not retreat but advanced, with some excitement in his eyes.

Although he had been muttering to himself not long ago that the plans of the county officials were not as good as cutting him down with a single blow, now he was excited that an official was willing to ambush him.

After all, the opportunity to kill an official does not come around every day.

The desperadoes who were wallowing in the rivers and lakes were much more ruthless than the guards. They cut down the ambushers and rushed into the dark room.

Several Cao gang men behind them were also injured, and they were sent to inform Gao Chong, asking the county magistrate Gao to send more men.

The secret workshop has been sealed, but due to Xue Bai's intrusion, several seals have been destroyed.

Li San'er was at the back. Although the night was dark, from time to time he could still see the blue official robe running past quickly. He arranged for his subordinates to outflank him, while he quickened his pace.

"Lieutenant Xue County, stop hiding. You are not as familiar with this place as I am. If you can't hide, you might as well have a chat with me."

Xue Bai did not answer.

Li San'er said again: "You are an official and I am a thief. The moment you set a trap to kill me, you have already lost. It shows that you can't deal with me through official means, because the Yanshi County Department and this corrupt court
