Chapter 11
Chapter 11
The land of Lanzhou is very vast, and the town closest to the desert is close to the exit, which can be described as an extremely chaotic place with a mixed bag of fish and dragons.
Many local people in Lanzhou have seen this handsome but helpless Tan Hualang, and they can't help but sigh in their hearts, and they only hope that he will have good luck and not die early.
This is a place that is difficult for the Gyeonggi forces to control. If a county magistrate dies, he may not be able to find out anything famous, and then he can only do things hastily.
No.2 already knew the situation here before coming here. The emperor not only wanted to get rid of Shi Guanyin's influence, but also hoped that No.2 could frighten the people who despise the imperial court in Lanzhou.
Let those know that if the court wants to get rid of them, it's okay, but just turn a blind eye and close one eye, don't go too far.
Early in the morning, No.2, who got up from the post station, went to bid farewell to Mr. Zhizhou and then rode to the border town over there.
Before reaching the small town, riding on the official road, he encountered a group of bandits jumping out from both sides, all of them wielding machetes.
No.2 cleared his throat, looked at them very seriously and said: "I am the new county magistrate, how dare you make a mistake."
"What is he talking about?" Monk Zhang Er, a bunch of bandits, couldn't figure it out.
The boss in the lead yelled directly: "What are you talking about in the book? Talk about people!"
...Is it hard to understand what he said?These bandits are too uneducated, they can't even understand the words when they come out to rob!
But one of the bandits understood, and said to his boss: "This seems to be a new county magistrate, boss, should we retreat..."
Immediately the boss greeted him with a slap, and the bandit fell to the ground, cursing: "Isn't he the Zhima officer? What are you afraid of? No one will know if we kill him."
"Yes, kill him and rob him."
Those people looked at No.2 with enthusiasm as if they were looking at a whole roasted lamb, wishing they could tear it apart and eat it right away.
A bunch of knives were waving indiscriminately in front of him, and his eyes ached looking at him.In fact, he didn't need to hide his strength too much. If Shi Guanyin wanted to check, he could find out that he knew martial arts.
Moreover, Shi Guanyin is too conceited, even if he has martial arts, he is like an ant in Shi Guanyin's eyes.
No.2 stroked his forehead and shook his head. The bandits looked at each other and started yelling. The leader gave an order and rushed over to take down No.2.
There was a flash of saber light, which made people's eyes hurt under the fierce sunlight. Those who rushed over here were used to this kind of warm light, and their actions were not slow because of it.
When they saw that No.2 in front of them was holding a kitchen knife, they couldn't help laughing: "Take a kitchen knife and come out, boss, let's give him some color."
"on!"
The bandits surrounded No.2, and No.2 looked at them calmly, with eyes as sharp as a falcon.
He sighed: "I ask you whether you will retreat or not?"
"Little boy is still sloppy, haha, today I will let you know how powerful I am."
I have to say that there are still two brushes who can get along here, but the leader's martial arts are still good, and his sword skills are superb.
That knife slashed towards No.2. It was very powerful, and it was about to hit No.2's body. No.2 jumped away and pulled the rein to change the direction of dismounting.
The horse was frightened by this, and stepped on it carelessly, and the little shrimps around were a little panicked for fear that they would be trampled by the horse's hoof, and they would be seriously injured if they didn't die.
Even so, No.2 was in control and did not fall off the horse, and escaped several times from the leader's knife.
He looked at the leader provocatively and taunted: "Didn't you say you want me to know how good you are? Come on." He dared to say that he is a little boy!He is white but not a little boy.
Next, No.2 didn't give the opponent a chance at all, the kitchen knife in his hand flew rapidly, and at the same time he controlled the horse with the other hand.
A group of people were scared away by him, and only one leader was left to fight against him.
The leader's broadsword used countless tricks, each of which was cracked by No.2, and countered by No.2's kitchen knife.
As if playing tricks on the opponent, No.2 moved the opponent's sword from front to back, east to west, and knocked down his big sword to the ground after playing enough.
"You lost." He sneered, and put the knife on the opponent's neck leisurely.
Even so, the leader still didn't admit defeat, and breathed out with a generous palm, wanting to slap the kitchen knife away to a safe place.
However, No. 2 seemed weak, but his grip was extraordinary. His hand didn't move at all, and the kitchen knife was still firmly resting on the opponent's neck.
No.2 said with a smile: "It's really daring, I will kill you with a knife in my hand."
The disparity in strength was too great, and the leader knelt down and begged for mercy in order to save his life: "Master County Magistrate, please spare me."
At this moment, he was full of regrets in his heart, why did he treat this person as a big fat sheep just because of his appearance?It is true that people cannot be judged by their appearance, and sea water cannot be measured.
At this time, those little shrimps were going to take the opportunity to escape, No.2 threw a kitchen knife and scratched one of them's face, and then exclaimed: "Excuse me."
"If anyone dares to escape, I will take your life immediately. Do you want me to use lynching or the national law." No.2 gave them two choices, and it was up to them how to choose.
Their hairs stand on their backs, their bodies tremble, and their hearts are frightened. If they are lynched, their lives may be in danger, but the national law can save their lives.
People with a discerning eye can see how this is chosen, and they all knelt down and begged for mercy: "We choose the law of the country."
No. 2 snorted coldly: "Follow me, don't think about fighting on the way, you and I can crush you to death with one hand."
They now have no doubts about No.2's strength, and all thoughts of running away were dispelled by this sentence.
Immediately No.2 added another sentence: "You look at each other, if there is one less person..."
It's really embarrassing for him to look at so many people alone, but when he said this, they had to take care of each other, just to save their lives.
The speed of the journey with a group of people behind him was also much slower. Fortunately, this place was not too far from the town, and he also brought enough water and food, so he was very comfortable eating while driving.
It happened that there were still these people following him, which made some people who wanted to do something on the road shrink back, saving a lot of trouble.
Entering the small town, the residents of the small town seem to be familiar with this battle, but they always feel that it is a bit strange that a bandit leader is so handsome.
After suffering from these strange gazes, No.2 finally arrived at the county government office.
"Hey, what are you looking at, don't leave yet." The yamen servant looked at this group of people staring at him and found it very annoying, so he started to drive them away.
Suddenly, the yamen servant saw the handsome No.2, and his eyes changed instantly.
This yamen servant is usually very masculine, and he likes such a handsome man the most, seeing this stunning look today, of course he moved his mind.
The same eyes, when Li Xiuyan looked at him, he only felt comfortable and extremely gentle. The way this person looked at him made him want to take pictures of him in the ground.He seemed to be a delicious meal and was placed on the table, and the yamen servant was the one who ate.
Facing different people, No.2 has completely different attitudes.
Immediately, he took out an official seal, and he sternly said: "Ben Tanhualang was transferred by the Holy Master to come here to take over as the county magistrate, how dare you be rude."
The yamen servants were stunned when they saw the official seal. They knew that an official was coming from the capital, but they never thought that he would come so quickly and look good.Although the place is chaotic, these yamen servants are appointed by the government. Unlike other people, they still have a little awe of the county magistrate.
"Sir, please."
The yamen servants reacted and immediately invited No.2 in, but No.2 said, "Take me to the cell."
After finishing speaking, he glanced at the crowd behind him: "Follow up."
As soon as the words fell, everyone followed No.2 in an orderly manner, with the yamen servant leading the way.
There are many people imprisoned in the cell, some look vicious, and some look good. No.2's heart sank, it seemed that he really needed to rectify it.
When the bandits saw the empty cell, they rushed in one after another as if they saw life-saving straws, and even closed the door themselves to separate them from No.2.
After closing it, the guards put away the keys, and No.2 said in a deep voice, "I will come here every day to inspect, if one is missing, what will happen? You know for yourself."
These bandits are of some use to him, and they are a sharp sword if used well.
The jailers and yamen servants trembled slightly. The county magistrate who just arrived was really not a good person. Will their previous actions be exposed and punished.
The sense of crisis spread in their hearts and enveloped them. They thought that the sky was high and the emperor was far away, so they could do whatever they wanted.It now appears that is not the case.
If the county magistrate really wants to punish them, they can't just catch them, it seems that they have to find a way.
They thought they hid their thoughts well, but No.2 saw the calculation through their eyes.
Very good, are we going to deal with him?Come on though, he won't be No.2 if he loses.
I don't know what they can do to deal with him, but don't just use some simple means, then he will only find it extremely boring.
And arresting people also pays attention to getting all the stolen goods, right?
