Chapter 182
All the villagers ran out desperately, for fear that it would be too late, and their lives would be taken here.

But the people in the yamen did not dare to leave. Their county magistrate was killed suddenly, and the murderer was right in front of him. They must be arrested and brought to justice.

What's more, the county magistrate was killed suddenly, and Chen En, who is the catcher, will be the first to be investigated.

Chen En's face was cold, he stood in front of the two with a big knife in his hand, and said in a cold voice: "How dare you kill the imperial court official, and you will be arrested without hand."

Li Mo said coolly: "That depends on whether you have the ability."

Chen En: "It's extremely arrogant, brothers."

Everyone had already clenched the sabers in their hands, and the cold blade reflected the cold light, exuding a gloomy and dead air.

These government officials have always been domineering, seeing two strange young men at this moment, not only killed the county magistrate, but their tone was also so rampant.

It was even more angry, everyone was furious, and they drew their swords forward one after another. More than a dozen yamen servants shouted in unison, raised their swords with a slap, and put on a striking posture, looking like they wanted to fight people desperately.

Li Mo didn't move, Huang Puxuan raised his eyebrows and waved his hand slightly, only to hear an angry bang.

A gust of wind suddenly blew up, and there seemed to be a whistling sound, and there was a chill in the air.

The gust of wind was even more raging, and it was seen that the gust of wind was rushing towards the officials at a terrifying speed.

All the officials had almost no time to react, and watched the gust of wind blowing towards them, and a look of despair flashed across their eyes.

Hearing a loud "bang" sound, everyone was caught off guard, and was immediately shaken back a few steps. There was a pain in his chest, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood with a "wow".
The original arrogance and domineering of the officials were all gone, and they lay on the ground in embarrassment.

Only Li Mo and Huangpuxuan stood on the ground, as well as the frightened girl and her two younger sisters!
The two younger sisters hugged each other tightly and cried loudly: "Mother, I want mother!"

Li Mo gave Huangpu Xuan a thumbs up: "Amazing!"

Huang Puxuan smiled slightly, approached Li Mo suddenly, and whispered in a mellow voice: "I have something even better, do you want to try it?"

Li Mo: "..."

I seriously suspect you are driving and have no proof.

Li Mo dismounted and walked forward slowly, while Chen En clutched his painful chest, desperately wanting to retreat.

But behind him, there are all the officials lying on the ground, and there is no way to retreat.

Li Mo walked up to the frightened girl and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."

The girl didn't seem to respond, she couldn't even roll her eyes.

It's understandable when you think about it, a girl who has never traveled far and lives a simple life, when has she ever seen such a terrifying scene.

Watching a living person die in front of her, one can imagine the shock she received.

Li Mo sighed, stretched out his hand to hold her back: "You take your sister in first."

The girl suddenly felt a little dizzy in her head, and also had some unexplained emotions, and stared blankly at the person in front of her.

It's not that this person is so tall and mighty, on the contrary, she is very thin.

But when this person stood in front of her, a noble and pure temperament slowly flowed out. Wearing ordinary clothes on her body, it seemed to make people feel that she was unattainable, fit and elegant, and was not stained with the world.

Her voice is very light, as if she was born with such a soft voice, and even her temperament unconsciously carried a trace of reassuring power.

She stretched out her hand in embarrassment, and her powerless hands seemed to have a strong force suddenly, and she held the man's hand tightly in her palm.

There is a feeling of fullness in the palm of the hand, the storm seems to stop for a moment, everything is quiet, the sun breaks through the clouds, and the whole world is quiet in an instant.

At this moment, she was holding on to the opponent's hand tightly, as if grasping a life-saving straw, holding it nervously, as if she had exhausted all her strength, the strength was astonishing.

She was no longer as panicked as before, but she was still cowering, and her body was even trembling slightly.

Li Mo stretched out his other hand and patted the back of her hand: "Don't be afraid! I won't hurt you!"

The girl looked down at her own hand, and what covered her was the other's hand, which was white and delicate, more beautiful than her own.

The nails were cut very flat, and there was no dirt in the crevices of the nails. In comparison, my hands were rougher and duller!

The other party didn't feel disgusted at all, and the hand that was grabbed by her didn't pull out.

A warm moistness suddenly hit her eyes, she thought her life was over, but unexpectedly, a stranger could save her, and in this life, she must repay her kindness.

The girl raised her face, the golden sun was shining on her body, and she felt that life suddenly became too much brilliance.

Huang Puxuan looked at Li Mo's grasped hand with cold eyes, and wanted to slap the girl away with a palm, but finally held back.

The girl suddenly felt a cold light piercing towards her, causing her body to shiver uncontrollably.

Sensing her uneasiness, Li Mo pulled her hand out and helped her into the yard.

A voice as thin as a mosquito sounded: "Sister!"

The girl looked down and saw that it was her two younger sisters. She squatted down and hugged them tightly in her arms.

...

Li Mo looked down at Chen En: "Are you officials from Pingning County?"

Holding a glimmer of hope, Chen En watched Li Mo's expression intently, but he saw Li Mo's face sinking like water, his brows furrowed, and his eyes cold.

Chen En could only nod honestly and said, "Yes!"

However, Pingning County was their territory, and Chen En felt angry again, and said viciously, "If you kill the county magistrate, you won't be able to escape. You'd better capture him obediently, or you won't be able to get out of Pingning County."

This is not the first time Li Mo has seen such arrogant people, it seems that the palm that Huangpu Xuan gave them was not strong enough.

Li Mo smiled: "You say I can't get out of Pingning County, who will arrest me? By you? Believe it or not, I will crush you to death with one hand."

Chen En: "How dare you?"

Li Mo pointed to the corpse on the ground: "Do you dare?"

Chen En: "..."

Huangpuxuan came over, held Li Mo's hand, and rubbed it hard a few times, as if to rub off the girl's breath.

Li Mo's hand was so painful from being rubbed by him, he pulled it out, and gave him a hard look: "What are you doing?"

Huangpuxuan was not annoyed either: "Leave this trivial matter to me."

Someone can do it for you, so why not do it.

Li Mo entered the courtyard, the girl and her two younger sisters stood beside their parents, tears were like broken pearls and they couldn't stop.

Li Mo looked at the family lying on the ground, sighed, and stepped forward to feel their pulse!
The girl asked cautiously, "Are my parents and brother all right?"

Although the two younger sisters were still in fear, they were more worried about the safety of their parents and elder brother. They looked at Li Mo expectantly, hoping to tell her that it was all right.

After a long time, Li Mo asked the girl, "Is the hospital far away?"

The girl's heart skipped a beat, and she asked Li Mo nervously, "They?"

Li Mo: "We must grab the medicine immediately."

The girl felt that her eye sockets were moist, but she still wanted to cry.

This young master, whom he had never met before, had helped him unconditionally from the very beginning. If it wasn't for her, he might have been arrested by the county government long ago.

The girl looked at Li Mo hopefully: "Is my father still saved?"

Li Mo gave her an affirmative answer: "Don't worry, he will be fine with me here!"

Her father was seriously injured, and the fact that he was already in poor health made it even worse, so he had to be treated in time.

The mother and two younger brothers were fine, just a skin trauma. Among the three who pinched Li Mo, he woke up after a while.

He woke up faintly, the first sentence: "Don't catch my daughter."

The girl hugged her tightly: "Mother, my sister is fine."

...

The medicine was bought by Qiu Yu, and several of their guards have been following Huangpuxuan, but a certain prince thought they were in the way and didn't want them to show up.

Xia Chen protested, but he didn't dare to stand in front of Huangpuxuan, that was the rhythm of courting death.

Instead, he complained in front of Dong Zhe and the others: "Do you feel that the lord has changed? He used to be a cold person, but now he is like a 250. He doesn't let us follow him openly, but insists on hiding in the dark place."

Qiu Yu rubbed her chin with an inscrutable look: "Obviously, the prince is in love."

Dong Zhe corrected his statement: "Since I met Master Li, the prince has been sending * *."

Xia Chen: "You said, the prince came all the way from southern Xinjiang to rescue Lord Li, why is Lord Li not moved at all, is her heart made of stone?"

Qiu Yu: "I guess it should be made of iron."

Dong Zhe slapped him across the face: "If the prince likes you, will you agree?"

When the two heard it, they felt a chill, their goosebumps stood up, and they shook their heads desperately: "No!"

They are normal men with no tendency to break their sleeves.

So we can't blame Master Li, they even shed a tear of sympathy for Li Mo, it's really pitiful to be entangled by a man like Wang Ye.

The people appointed by Qiu Yu pulled the officials who were lying on the ground out of Hedong Village, and warned them not to harass Feng Dahe's family again, or they would end up like the county magistrate Jiang.

More than a dozen officials ran away crawling and rolling, and the corpse of County Magistrate Jiang was thrown on the ground and no one cared.

Li Mo learned from He Shi's mouth that the reason why what happened today had to start some time ago.

Exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes in Pingning County are very serious.

Some time ago, there was another poll tax, five hundred cash per person a year, and there were seven people in Feng Dahe's family, which was 3500 cash, three and a half taels of money.

This family is already very difficult, it should be said that the entire Hedong village is in difficulty.

At the beginning of the month, the county government had sent people to collect taxes, and many people couldn't afford to pay, so they had to use their family's things to make up for it, so they barely passed the customs.

What's more, only by selling children and daughters can the tax money be raised!
It can be said that the people are in dire straits, but everyone dares not speak out.

But Feng Dahe's family, because Feng Dahe is a medicine jar, has already emptied the family, so there is no money to pay taxes.

Someone from the brothel came over and said, "I have no money, sell my daughters, what are the daughters in the family doing? Come to our brothel, and you can definitely give us a good price."

He was so angry: "No matter how poor our family is, we won't sell our sons and daughters."

"Go, my daughters are losers. They are at the age when they can be sold at a good price. Be careful that there is no such shop in this village."

He was so angry that he picked up the broom and drove the people away. Even if the people drove away, the money still hadn't been found!
I had no choice but to beg the yamen bitterly, hoping to relax the deadline so that they could raise money everywhere, and the yamen agreed at that time.

Unfortunately, it was Chen En who came to collect the tax money at that time. When he saw Feng Dahe's three daughters, a bad idea formed in his heart.

So, this time, County Magistrate Jiang was specially called over. County Magistrate Jiang was always a pervert, so how could such a good opportunity be missed.

Who knows, Feng Dahe fiercely resisted as soon as he came, isn't this an act of courting death?
Several officials beat Feng Dahe unconscious, and then stopped.

Li Mo was so angry that he cursed: "Fuck, damn it, is this a county magistrate? What's the difference between this and a bandit?"

He wiped his tears and said: "Who said it wasn't? His father was murdered by them just because he said a few more words and refused to pay the tax money. He pitied my daughters. If it wasn't for the benefactor Save, they have already fallen into the tiger's mouth at this moment."

After finishing speaking, he wanted to kneel down to Li Mo, but was stopped by Li Mo.

Li Mo asked: "This population tax existed before, or only this year?"

He sighed: "It's only this year, last year's is different from this year's, and each year has a name."

Li Mo: "The county government is so lawless, so no one goes to Fucheng to sue him?"

Mrs. He: "Fucheng and the county government belong to the same gang, how can I sue?"

Li Mo was silent, how would the common people live under such exorbitant taxes.

Before Li Mo walked out of Feng Dahe's house, another group of officials came outside.

The leader is Feng, the head of Hedong Village.

Village Chief Feng pointed to Feng Dahe's house, and said to the visitor: "Officer Liao, they are still inside, you have to be careful, they have martial arts!"

Officer Liao had a fierce look on his face, he was a policeman from Pingning County, Chen En's subordinate, this man had always been ruthless, and I don't know how many people suffered from him.

There was no trace of the previous official mission on the ground, leaving bloodstains all over the place.

Lord Liao raised the knife in his hand and ordered all the officials: "Rush in, shoot and kill."

Qiu Yu sat on a tree and watched coldly.

Before Officer Liao could make a move, a sharp sword was already on his neck!

Officer Liao was furious immediately, and said sharply, "Who are you, how dare you hold someone from the government hostage?"

Dong Zhe said coldly: "Get out!"

It's impossible to get away, and I have to avenge magistrate Jiang anyway.

Signaling his subordinates to do something, however, tragic exclamations burst out at the same time, converging into a tragic movement.

Everyone was stunned to see a silver cold light attacking with lightning speed and ferocity. The silver cold light suddenly circled around everyone, and flew back along the way it came from in the next second.

Guanshi Liao's eyes widened suddenly, and a trace of panic flashed through his pupils.

In the dead silence, everyone seemed to be able to hear the sound of bones and flesh being broken, and saw Liao Guancha's body knelt aside in a strange posture, and the ground was covered with blood.

And they were not much better, all of their arms and thighs were injured.

Everything happened between lightning and flint, and when everyone looked around in horror, they saw a man playing with a knife in his hand on a tall tree, and said disdainfully: "Dong Zhe, your action is too big!" slow."

When the matter developed to this point, Li Mo could not handle it alone. Huang Puxuan needed to come forward to solve this problem.

...

In the end, Li Mo did not take away any of the master sculptors. In her opinion, being a person is more important than doing things.

When Feng Dahe's family encountered such misfortune, these people would only be indifferent and ruthless bystanders.

Especially a village within a village is even more indifferent and merciless.

If these sculptors were invited back to Songjiang County, they would definitely treat each other coldly when encountering difficulties. What is the difference between them and white-eyed wolves!
