Chapter 131 The Faster You Die (Subscribe)

Li Changguo left without saying a word and did not mention Inspector Zhang again.

He was too embarrassed to say it, and he knew it was useless to say it.

The new defense commander of the Imperial City was very stubborn and didn't take him, the county governor, seriously at all.

It would be fine if he could subdue him today, but then he could just grab the boy's neck and force him to release the person.

Is your neck stiff? Li flattened it directly.

But since you can't suppress it, there's no need to humiliate yourself.

"I didn't expect that even the county governor was helpless against him. It seems that this Lin Defense Envoy has some skills. Although he is young, he should not be underestimated."

County Magistrate Dong Linghui shook his head and sighed, "I originally thought that the garrison commander sent him to take over Wangchengdu because there was no one available and he could just deal with it casually. It seems that is not the case."

"You're overthinking it, County Magistrate."

Qin Xia walked ahead, speaking calmly, "Didn't Zhu Tianmao, the head eunuch of the Han Palace, die in Yinyue County? It was Lin Twelve who killed him. It's a blessing for Wangcheng County that the garrison commander sent him here."

"Hmm?" County Magistrate Dong Linghui looked unconcerned. "Zhu Tianmao is so highly regarded by the King of Han, so he must be quite powerful. It's just bad luck for him to have run into this Fourth Realm Super Emperor."

Lin Shier has such a fourth-level super-emperor guardian demon, so isn’t it easy for him to kill Zhu Tianmao?

Dong Linghui thought that if he had such a Blood Blade Princess, he could now hold down County Magistrate Li Changguo, let him act arrogantly in front of him, and let him dominate me—

Qin Xia stopped and looked back at him. "At that time, he was only a mere Third Realm cultivator, and the Blood Blade Princess was also a temporary contract. Not only was Blood Blade Princess's divine contract tampered with, but Blood Blade Princess's parents and brothers were also controlled by Zhu Tianmao. Yet, not only did he win that battle, but he also used the arrangements of Zhu Tianmao's uncle and nephew to elevate Blood Blade Princess's bloodline from the Fourth Realm Super King to the Super Emperor level in one fell swoop."

Qin Xia continued walking forward, "I have subordinates who experienced that turmoil in Yinyue County. The situation was extremely dangerous, and the entire city was almost burned down. This boy and several constables bravely sacrificed themselves at the last moment, ultimately turning the tide and achieving victory. The garrison commander sent this boy to our county, probably because he was impressed by his courage. If you dare to underestimate him, you will suffer greatly."

"Is that so?" Dong Linghui raised her eyebrows in surprise.

The demonic disaster case in Yinyue County was directly handled by the state and the court. The county did not receive the detailed case files, so Dong Linghui did not know the details.

At this time, the three of them had already arrived at the gate of Wangchengdu Yamen.

The iron-scaled horse Qin Xia had ridden when he arrived was outside. He mounted his horse and bowed to the two men, "As the East County Commandant just said, the situation in Wangcheng is extremely dangerous. That demonic dragon is already a problem, and who knows who is spreading rumors to attract so many people from the underworld and demons to come in large numbers. Their intentions are still unclear, and we don't know what they are up to.

In this precarious time, the four of us must be united and work together. If our discord gives those evildoers an opportunity to exploit, it will be too late to regret. This is all Qin has to say. Farewell!

After he finished speaking, he rode out of the north city gate on his horse.

He was a county lieutenant, but for some reason, he had recently led two battalions of county soldiers under his command to be stationed on the banks of the Tianxiang River outside the city.

This time, he received a call for help from the county magistrate Dong Linghui, and hurried over on horseback from more than 20 miles outside the city.

The East County Magistrate was very cowardly. He didn't dare to intervene to stop the fight between Lin and Li until he arrived.

Dong Linghui watched Qin Xia leave and then turned to look at Li Changguo: "Master Li, what he said makes sense. What do you think?"

Since we are going to work together, shouldn't this guy let go of the power he holds and loosen up a bit?
Today he saved Li Changguo from danger, so he should at least show some appreciation, right?

Li Changguo did not respond, but snorted coldly, walked out of the door, turned left, and walked towards the county government office.

At this time, his master was already waiting outside, looking at his head with a little worry.

Li Changguo's face darkened. "I'm fine! What can a mere third-level brat do to me?"

He grabbed the hat of a servant nearby and put it on his head, while asking, "When will my suit of armor be repaired?"

Li Changguo used to have a set of fifth-level king-grade Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor. This armor, combined with his horizontal training body, was truly invulnerable to swords and spears, and could also greatly enhance his Yuan magnetic fist power.

However, a few months ago, while suppressing a sixth-level demon in Tianxiang River, part of his armor was damaged and he had to send it to a famous craftsman for repair.

The annoying thing is that Li Changguo suffered heavy losses and still hasn't captured the sixth-level demon. He has to bear the cost of repairing the armor by himself.

"It's been repaired long ago." The master said with a wry smile, "The problem is that we haven't been able to pay the balance, which is 18,000 taels of magic silver."

Li Changguo frowned, then snorted coldly, "Go find the shopkeepers in the city and tell them I need a loan of 20,000 magic silvers. Ask them what the interest rate is, and try to lower it as much as possible. The county lieutenant is right, the magic dragon may recover at any time, so we must get this armor back as soon as possible."

The master was stunned when he heard this and cupped his hands: "Sir! Twenty thousand taels of magic silver is probably not enough."

He had just heard what these people said inside and knew that Li Changguo still had to pay Lin Twelve 8000 taels of silver.

This matter was jointly guaranteed by the county magistrate and the county lieutenant. If Li Changguo did not return it, he would not be able to explain to them.

"Bullshit!" Li Changguo snorted coldly, "This man is my equal in combat. I'm afraid he won't live long. He might die tonight."

The master was stunned at first, then understood: "You mean Yuanji?"

"He has already offended the King of Han. This time, he was appointed to take care of the business of the garrison commander. This is bound to conflict with the King of Han. Given Yuan Ji's character, he will never give him the opportunity to reorganize Wangchengdu."

Li Changguo sighed: "The stronger this boy is, the faster he will die."

He felt sorry that such a talented person like Lin Twelve could not contribute to the current situation in Wangcheng County.

What was even more regrettable was that he couldn't win back the game he lost. Once he got the armor back, he would be able to let Lin Twelve know how powerful he was.

Coincidentally, in the inner court of Wangchengdu, Lin Rui was also giving instructions to Wang Sen in a serious voice.

"Wang Sen, go find that store now and get those things back as soon as possible!"

"Looking at the look of the county governor, he is very dissatisfied. He will definitely cause trouble again in the future. We must not be careless." Lin Rui thought that he must strengthen the military. After he completes the blood training, he will use potions to strengthen the power of the Blood Knife Girl to the extreme. If the county governor Li Changguo dares to explode the thorns again, he will cut off his scalp and let him know why the flowers are so red.

Ji Xueying next to her frowned and looked at the 'Jingxue' knife in her hand.

She felt incompetent and couldn't even hurt Li Changguo today.

Ji Xueying thought that it would be better if the knife in her hand could be sharper.

If he was a little stronger, even if he couldn't cut Li Changguo's skin, he could still break his bones.

Ji Xueying became even more excited about the gifts that Lin Rui mentioned. She wondered to what extent these potions her master had bought for her could strengthen her.
What Lin Rui and the others didn't know was that just when they were lamenting their lack of strength, in a teahouse diagonally opposite the Wangchengdu Yamen, Professor Han and Li Li were shocked by their strength.

They were standing on the third floor of the teahouse, looking towards the inner court of Wangchengdu with extremely solemn eyes.

"He really is the Fourth Realm Super Emperor!"

Li Li smiled bitterly and murmured, "Teacher, this Fourth Realm Blood Blade Princess is even more powerful than me. It seems like forcing her to save her is not an option!"

The situation this time is really troublesome. Why did the new defense envoy of Wangchengdu take office at this time?
Even if it was a few days later, they would be able to gather enough manpower to break in and rescue them by force.

Their teacher is very powerful, at the level of colonel and close to brigadier general, which is the peak of the fifth realm of Tianji Star.

However, there is another master who is even better than the teacher lurking in this city, waiting for the opportunity to hunt them down.

Han Kedao frowned tightly: "This is an unexpected variable, but I think we may have some hope now."

"Teacher, you can't!" Li Li's face changed drastically. "In the previous battle, the new defense envoy was in conflict with the county governor, so he didn't use his official seal. If it were us, and he threw out the official seal, his and that Blood Blade Princess's combat power would surely double. We are no match for him!"

They couldn't let all the fellow project team members get involved in the rescue.

"You misunderstood me." Han Kedao shook his head. "Just now, when I saw this person entering the door, he seemed dissatisfied with the group of people from the Ministry of Justice."

Li Li was puzzled when he heard this.

Just now, Defense Commissioner Lin did express his dissatisfaction with the group of detectives from the Ministry of Justice.

However, this was probably caused by the fact that the Chief Justice entered the palace without the permission of his chief official, which made the new defense envoy feel offended.

Dou Ming, the sixth-rank judge of the Ministry of Justice, is a smart man and will definitely find a way to calm the anger of Defense Commissioner Lin.

Moreover, no matter how dissatisfied the Lin Defense Commissioner was with the people of the Judicial and Censorate, he would not turn around and help them.

Guarding against and hunting down extraterritorial demons is a major defense in the Song Dynasty officialdom.

"What I mean is that this Lin Defense Commissioner is not on the same page as the provincial governor. As long as their interests are inconsistent, they can find ways to exploit them."

Han Kedao pondered and said, "A prison break is too dangerous. We don't have a capable person here, so it's absolutely impossible. But perhaps we can try a method of internal and external cooperation."

"Inside and outside cooperation?" Li Li's eyes lit up. "So you mean, let our people sneak in?"

"Didn't he just say that at the city gate? He's planning to recruit people to fill Wangchengdu. It won't be difficult for us to send one or two people in then."

Han Kedao put his hands behind his back and spoke in a cold voice, "It would be best if I could get the position of prison warden, or at least team commander, even if it means giving him a huge bribe!"

Li Li thought that this was a good idea, and it turned out that experience is always the best.

He immediately began to wonder, who among them would be the most suitable person to contact Defense Envoy Lin? This matter must be done without leaving any trace, and Defense Envoy Lin must not notice anything unusual.

It would be best to pretend that you want to find a future for your children and nephews.

As for the "heavy bribes" the teacher mentioned, that is understandable. The Song Dynasty lasted for 6700 years, and the officialdom was extremely dark.

If you want to ask someone to do something, how can you not take money? Li Changguo was known for his integrity, but he also accepted various gifts from businessmen and gentry.

So they have to prepare a large sum of money as quickly as possible!
Li Li immediately thought of something: "Oh, Teacher, didn't you give Lin Rui and the others a mission before? They've already sent all the supplies listed on your list, and they used the post station."

"Oh? So fast?" Han Kedao was a little surprised, then snorted: "I underestimated them. They have the support of the Sky Blue Group. This is not a problem for them."

Li Li also felt that it was Fang Ranran or Yu Feicui who helped.

Recalling that when he just graduated, he was also among the top 300 in the city's physical examination.

At that time, he did not want to be controlled by a company, so he joined a public institution.

The problem is that although those public institutions are free, their resources are far inferior to those of large companies.

Li Li was in a miserable state when he first arrived. He had to work very hard every month to get a low-grade soul stone worth five taels of magic silver. It took him three full months to complete the first level of the sutra.

However, Lin Rui and Wang Sen were able to obtain controlled materials worth more than 500 taels within a few days and mailed them to them through the official post station operated by the Song Dynasty.

"But this shows that the two junior brothers have already established themselves."

Li Liyu asked tentatively, "They are both innocent now, out of the sight of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Criminal Procuratorate. Do you want to—"

"No!" Han Kedao shook his head without thinking.

He knew what Li Li meant. It would be more appropriate to let Lin Rui and the others infiltrate the imperial city of Siwangcheng than his other disciples.

But he couldn't drag these two innocent children into this.

Today's disaster was caused by Han Kedao's carelessness. He already felt guilty for implicating his students, so how could he involve innocent people?
