Water Margin begins as a captain in Yanggu County

Chapter 28 Refreshing!

Su Wu immediately replied, "Take everything seriously. I am the victim of the murder case and I have escaped with my life by luck. It is precisely because I have to deal with those heinous crimes that I have to pay for the murder. The person who hired the murder can be controlled at any time. As for the oppression of the people in the village, the people are all crying and complaining..."

While Su Wu was speaking, he only looked at Cheng Wanli.

"County Magistrate Meng..." Cheng Wanli still didn't say anything, but suddenly said this, dragging out the last syllable.

In fact, he was waiting for Su Wu to answer: "Meng Zhixian was helpless, so he sent me to the prefectural government. As long as the prefect makes a decision, Meng Zhixian will be the first to make the decision for the people."

Cheng Wanli looked at Su Wu again and said, "You are an exceptionally smart person..."

"My life and death are at stake, and I have no choice but to do so..." Su Wu replied.

"When you go back to County Magistrate Meng, tell him about this matter..." Cheng Wanli paused, then continued, "There should be both personal and material evidence for this matter, and it should be impeccable in future official documents. This way... is great."

Su Wu knew that he had really seized this opportunity, so he bowed and said, "Don't worry, sir, I will definitely do it properly."

"Smart people are good..." Cheng Wanli nodded and said, "Smart people have a bright future."

"Thank you very much for your kindness!" Su Wu naturally bowed.

"Okay, go ahead... I'll just wait for you to bring more official documents." Cheng Wanli waved his hand.

As soon as Su Wu retreated, Cheng Wanli suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, as if a huge stone in his heart had really fallen to the ground, at least half of it had fallen.

When Su Wu came out of the yamen, Wu Song had been waiting for a long time.

He stepped forward and asked, "Brother, did the prefect blame me?"

Su Wu looked at Wu Song. Logically speaking, Wu Song should have had such an opportunity, but he did not enter the heart of the prefect.

It doesn't matter. In this life, Wu Song can have a deep brotherly love and a reunited family.

"It's nothing. We will go back out of the city early tomorrow morning and inform Yu Baosi and tell him something!" Su Wu was about to take action. He could no longer hide his murderous intention.

But Su Wu remained calm. This matter was already directed at Dong Ping. Dong Ping was someone with that kind of temper. If he was pushed into a corner, he would probably do something desperate.

How could Dong Ping be so desperate?

If you think about it, maybe he would just become a bandit immediately, which is easy to say.

If so...what if Dong Ping took some of his trusted people and rebelled on the spot?

Should he fight and kill people in Dongping Prefecture, or kill all of Cheng Wanli's family, snatch his daughter away, and then become a bandit?
Given Dong Ping's personality, this is not impossible.

We have to be on guard again...

The pressure is a bit too much.

First find a place to stay close to the city gate. It will be quick to leave the city tomorrow. Then go see Yu Baosi and give him all the instructions.

After returning to his residence, Su Wu was also nervous. Being in Dong Ping's territory, he had to be on guard, and even he and Wu Song did not sleep at night.

Although it was impossible for Dong Ping to raise a team of soldiers to fight and kill, it was possible for him to send a few people to do some despicable things.

Su Wu, who had been assassinated once, was extremely cautious.

They stayed awake all night waiting for dawn. As soon as the city gate opened, Su Wu took Wu Song and quickly left the city.

Passing by Dulonggang, the two did not stay for long and just rushed back to Yanggu County.

It was already dusk when they returned to the county government office. Su Wu and Wu Song took a rest and stayed in the government office.

After waking up from a nap and washing up, County Magistrate Meng sent someone to invite him.

Su Wu was also hesitating whether to tell everything to County Magistrate Meng, after all, he had been used by the prefect.

Then the magistrate Meng Yi asked, "How is the matter?"

Su Wu replied: "It went smoothly. I reported a lot to the prefect. He was interested in asking about it..."

The words were kept a little.

Meng Yi nodded: "Well, not bad, not bad. Since the prefect is interested in asking about it, then I have nothing to do with it. I will not ask about it. Just do it..."

Su Wu also understood Meng Yi's attitude. He would not participate and would not care about the success or failure.

Su Wu still said: "Sir, please bear with me. If I get the credit, it will be yours. If I fail, it will be my fault." Meng Yi did not comment, but just waved his hand: "Go, go, and do your own thing..."

Su Wu turned around and took Wu Song with him and left the city immediately. To deal with murder and arson, he needed help. He and Wu Song couldn't always be the only ones going back and forth.

Where is the help?
Just go to the forest on Jingyang Ridge.

There are thatched huts scattered here and there at the bottom of the mountain. There are not many good fields here, and there are some dry lands, but they are not enough to support a family. People have to rely on the mountains for their livelihood, and there are many hunters here.

As soon as Su Wu reached the entrance of the village along the mountain road, he was immediately spotted by someone, who ran over from a distance and asked, "Is it my brother?"

Su Wu waved from afar: "It's me..."

"Brother, how did you have time to come into the mountains? Haha... I'm the first one you meet." The man came quickly on the mountain path, and the winding road was as smooth as walking on flat ground.

As they came closer, the man helped lead the horse and led the way: "Brother is really here. I am so happy. Please come in, come in, and have a seat at Brother Lin's house."

As soon as they entered the village, many men came from all directions, and children also gathered around them, all to watch Su Dutou fighting the tiger.

Even the woman took a few peeks at the door.

In this way, they arrived at Lin Mao's home. Lin Mao was just coming down from the dry land on the mountainside. There was mud on his legs. He was also very excited: "It's good that you came, brother. I was looking forward to your coming."

"I have something to say..." Su Wu didn't act hypocritically.

"It's good to have something to say. It's even better to have something to say. Come on, prepare the wine and food, and listen to my brother talk about business." Lin Mao shouted left and right.

Su Wu was not in a hurry. He looked around the village, and Lin Mao introduced the comings and goings to each family one by one.

The whole village was filled with a festive atmosphere. One family moved tables, another moved chairs, one family went to get wine, another family stored bacon...

It didn't take long before several tables of food and wine were prepared.

There was no house that big, so they sat full in a drying yard in front of the village. Many children gathered around, some came to see Su Dutou, some came to see Su Dutou, and they just smiled...

"Brother, please go first!" Lin Mao gestured with his hand.

Su Wu picked up the wine glass and said, "Brothers, this is a matter of life and death. I have no choice but to come. Let's drink this cup first."

After saying this, Su Wu drank it all in one gulp.

Lin Mao immediately called out to his attendants: "Let's drink together..."

After drinking a bowl of wine, Lin Mao drove away some children first, then turned around and asked anxiously, "Brother, why is it a life-and-death situation?"

"It's a long story, so I'll just tell you slowly... There are many thieves in the county, but I can't tolerate any grain of sand in my eyes, so I got into big trouble..."

Su Wu spoke a lot.

Lin Maoyi stood up and said, "Who are you talking about? It's Ximen Qing. We sell all kinds of mountain products to him. Who hasn't been deceived and humiliated by him? Now he even dares to kill my brother. He deserves to be killed, really deserves to be killed!"

"Brother, think of an idea, just kill this man!"

Su Wu looked around and found it true that most chivalrous people are butchers. Here, everyone is a butcher.

"I have thought of a solution, and I'm here to ask for my help, brothers," Su Wu replied.

"Just follow my brother's orders!" Lin Mao raised his hand.

He looked around and said, "Just follow my brother's orders!"

Su Wu stood up, poured a bowl of wine, motioned to everyone, and drank it all in one gulp: "Thank you, brothers."

"Brother, what are you talking about!"

"That's right, brother. If you are polite, you won't treat us as brothers." Lin Mao imitated what Su Wu had said at the gate of the yamen before.

"Okay, you're welcome then, let's enjoy the food and wine!" Su Wu was not too pretentious.

Wu Song was so excited when he saw this that he drank a bowl of wine and said, "It's so refreshing!"

(Brothers, I still ask for follow-up reading and votes. I bow my head in admiration! I just hope I can have a good new book recommendation position next week. Please help me!)
