Of course, he didn’t walk out at that time, but lay down. It was said that after he said that, King You Sheng invited him to the military camp and drank for a night.
On the surface, he was drinking, but everyone knew in secret that the screams in the military camp had never stopped that night.
After experiencing that incident, the Tong Residence Magistrate did not mind, but at least he restrained himself a little and did not dare to speak casually anymore.
However, the contempt in his bones did not decrease at all. On the contrary, as time passed, it increased.
When Tong Manor Leader heard his subordinate’s report and heard that his hand seemed to have paused for a moment, he seemed to be in a difficult position and could not help but frown.
“If you have something to say, just say it. Don’t hesitate. What’s there to be afraid of?”
“Yes, yes, yes.” The bailiff quickly nodded and said what was in his mouth, “The Ou Clan said that Xu Bai seemed to have been there before this. Other than that, there was no one else.”
“Xu Bai?” The Tong Residence Magistrate was stunned. Then, he reacted and repeated, “Are you talking about Xu Bai?”
“It’s Xu Bai who’s preparing to be rewarded in the capital.”The bailiff hurriedly said.
The Tong Residence Magistrate fell into deep thought and did not speak for a long time.
Of course, he had heard of it and paid attention to it. However, he did not expect that the other party would actually stop at the clay house.
It didn’t matter if they stopped. If they stopped, they would definitely leave. But now, they were involved in a missing person case.
Seeing that the magistrate did not speak, the bailiff shut his mouth tightly and stood to the side, waiting respectfully.
After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the Tong Residence Magistrate finally finished his thoughts and slowly spoke.
“Passing Xu Bail s”
“Yes, sir!” The bailiff finally received the order and heaved a sigh of relief. He agreed and quickly left with a few people.
After the bailiff left, Commander Tong looked at the empty hall and snorted coldly.
“It’s disgusting to have to deal with these Jianghu people again.”
Xu Bai brought Ye Zi and strolled around the streets for a while, but they did not find anything interesting.
There weren’t many other things in the clay house, but there was a lot of porcelain. However, if you looked at some things too much, you would feel sick of them.
Other than the merchants who came to sell, Xu Bai didn’t have much fun shopping.
“Let’s go back.” Xu Bai felt a little bored, so he walked towards the inn with Ye
The two of them walked for a while and soon arrived at the inn.
Xu Bai stopped in his tracks and bumped into the bailiff who had come to the inn.
The bailiff was also slightly stunned. He then waved his hand and said, “Men, take Xu Bai Bai back to the government office.”
If one were to say that one was tainted by the company of vermilion, one would be tainted by the company of ink. The arrogant personality of the Tong Manor Magistrate also affected his subordinates, making them seem to be more ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth.
In fact, Xu Bai knew that he would definitely be involved in this matter. After all, he was the only one who had been to the Ou Family before. However, he did not expect the other party to be so unyielding.
If he was like the Heaven Inspectorate’s official Song De, who spoke with reason and evidence, Xu Bai would really follow him.
However, Xu Bai wouldn’t care if he were to act tough right from the start.
We are all humans. Can’t we talk nicely?
Who gave you the right to speak ill of me?
“Young Master, let Ye Zi do it.” Ye Zi walked forward, her fair fingers moving slightly.
The silk thread appeared in her hand. In the next moment, Ye Zi plucked it slightly, and a faint sound was emitted.
The bailiffs that were about to surround them all stopped and took a few steps back. Some of them spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and their faces turned pale.
“My young master has a noble status, how can you surpass him? Young master didn’t say that he wanted your lives, so I’ll spare your lives.”Ye Zi’s eyebrows were raised. Although she was covered with a veil, she could feel a trace of killing intent circulating.
This scene was very exaggerated, and it naturally attracted the attention of the surrounding pedestrians. Many people stopped and pointed at them.
Ordinary people like them had seen cases of yamen arresting people, but this was the first time they had seen such a direct confrontation.
“How dare you!” The bailiff wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Although he was afraid, he still said firmly, “Do you know that disdisobeying the orders of the government is equivalent to opposing the imperial court? What will happen if you openly oppose the imperial court?”
Ye Zi was about to speak, but before she could say anything, she felt a large hand pressing down on her shoulder.
Xu Bai pressed down on Ye Zi’s shoulder and patted her lightly.”Don’t be rash.
Let’s go over and take a look.”
His tone was very calm, as if it had nothing to do with him.
However, those who were familiar with Xu Bai knew very well that the calmer he was, the angrier he became. And his anger would turn into a tangible price.
However, this group of people in front of them did not need to bear the price.
The ones who needed to bear the price were the people behind them. Just now, Ye Zi’s attack had already taught this group of people a lesson.
‘ Mm.” Ye Zi replied with a lazy tone. She walked behind Xu Bai and didn’t probe further.
Seeing this scene, the bailiff thought Xu Bai had given in and shouted,””Men, lock it!”
“Hmm?” Xu Bai raised his eyebrows.
Behind him, besides Ye Zi, there was also that puppet of the Fourth Stage.
The puppet of the Fourth Stage moved upon hearing the sound. It drew the long saber at its waist, which shattered into pieces. The fragments floated in the air and surrounded the bailiffs.
This scene was even more terrifying than Ye Zi’s attack..
