Chapter 917
Yang Ming knew that there was no delay now, so he hurried on his way.

The road to the county town was obtained by chatting with the horse seller when I was buying a horse today, but I didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.

Anding Village is really remote, and when going to the county seat, Yang Ming drove his horse fast without stopping, and the horse he just bought felt like he was going to die of exhaustion.

It took a day and two nights to finally arrive.

When he arrived at the county seat, it happened to be the morning of the third day. Yang Ming found a place, took a casual bite, and went to the gate of the county government office.

The magistrate can only beat the drums to express his grievances.

Yang Ming picked up the drum stick and began to hit it with a bang.

Fortunately, a yamen servant came, and soon Yang Ming met the magistrate of this county.

Yang Ming didn't use the title of scholar anymore, because he was from another county, and no one knew him, so he just knelt down on the ground, "Yang Ming, a grassroots man, pay homage to the county magistrate."

"What grievances do you have, tell me quickly."

"My lord, the grass people are here to stabilize the villagers in the village."

When the magistrate heard the word Anding Village, his eyes were very surprised, "Is it the Anding Village that has an infectious disease?"

Yang Ming raised his head, looked squarely at the Magistrate, and said in a very firm tone, "Master Magistrate, the villagers in Anding Village are not infected with an infectious disease, but poisoned."

Hearing this, the Magistrate's eyes froze. Why does this person know such details? Even the servants he sent haven't returned yet, "Why do you say that?"

Yang Ming was also sweating in his heart. He didn't know if the county magistrate was an upright official, or if he would think that he had an infectious disease, but this was the only way to do it for now, so he said, "The county magistrate My lord, this is the case. There was a man, everyone called him rich man Bai. He was dissatisfied with the villagers' refusal to sell the land and wanted to take revenge. So he bribed the villagers of Anding Village with money and drugged them. , the villagers got strange diseases one after another, and the news spread to the outside world, and the government heard about it. It is easy to buy the land in Anding Village."

Hearing what Yang Ming said, the magistrate was very surprised, "How did you know about this?"

"Magistrate, to be honest, the grass people are foreigners who passed by that village, and the people who stayed in that village. On the first day when the government went to the government, the village has already found out that the strange disease was given by someone, and it can be confirmed that there is no People who touched the medicine did not get the strange disease, so the strange disease was caused by the medicine and not an infectious disease."

After hearing this, the magistrate did not speak, as if he was thinking about something.

Seeing this, Yang Ming continued, "At present, those who have the strange disease have all gone to the Valley of the Medicine King. As for whether it is an infectious disease, you can send someone to the Valley of the Medicine King to find out."

The county magistrate kept silent all the time, which made Yang Ming feel very uncertain. Could it be that he met another corrupt official who didn't make decisions for the people?
After a while, the county magistrate finally spoke, "You found out the person who gave the medicine?"

"Exactly."

"Then you let the Medicine King Valley go?"

"Exactly."

The county magistrate stopped talking again, he didn't know what he was thinking, and after a while, he finally said, "Since you know that I have sent officers and soldiers to investigate thoroughly, what is your purpose in coming here? It is because I am afraid that the officials will wrong the villagers of Anding Village. ?”
