Pseudo master, she just wants to live

Chapter 138 The Shameless Magistrate
"What? What are you talking about? Master and Gouwa jumped into the vortex and disappeared?"

"Well, we also wanted to follow, but the vortex disappeared in an instant."

Yang Gao recalled the dangerous situation at that time, the two ropes were worn away by the water weeds and almost snapped, but when Fang Yao and the others fell into the whirlpool, the whirlpool disappeared instantly.

Afterwards, the Zhangxiang River returned to calm, and everyone on the boat looked at the calm river, thinking for a moment that they were dreaming.

Li Fugui stood there for a long time, surrounded by silence, until a gust of cold wind blew, he shivered suddenly, turned his head and said to everyone: "Quick! Put the pot on and boil the water, Master and the others will be back later , your body must be wet and cold!"

Yang Gao and Ah Wu were stunned for a moment, then hurried away without saying a word.

The county magistrate who was still looking around at the convoy was wrapped in wet clothes and was shivering from the cold. He heard this and said: "I really need to set up a pot to boil water as soon as possible. My clothes are soaked through. Hurry up and find some clean and warm clothes for me." clothing."

The people of the Li clan didn't know the magistrate of Zhangxiang City, not to mention that everyone was heavy and anxious at this time, and they were all focused on doing things, and no one paid attention to him.

Instead, a soldier leader whispered: "Magistrate Cao, we didn't bring any change of clothes. Now that the river is flooding the city, should you send someone..."

"To shut up!"

Zhixian lowered his voice and scolded.

The soldier leader immediately fell silent, not daring to speak again.

Cao Zhixian was even more annoyed when he thought that he had been tied up by Fang Yao and others on the boat, and looking at the busy back of Yang Gao who had been rough on him.

He looked at the long carriage and ox cart, and asked innocently, "Are these carriages yours?"

The sky is dark, not to mention the forest on this mountain.

A Wu Niang was busy lighting the lamps, and when she heard the words she was a little proud and said: "Naturally, we bought these cars, not rented them!"

"bought?"

Cao Zhixian was secretly surprised. According to the current prices, it would cost a lot of money to buy such horse-drawn carts and ox carts!
These unremarkable country bumpkins are so rich.

He was thinking silently, and suddenly saw the largest four-wheeled carriage in the convoy, rolled his eyes, and slowly walked to the side.

Suddenly, Cao Zhixian's eyes widened suddenly, and then he shouted: "Come here!"

The soldiers shivering around had no choice but to run over.

"Come on, tie up all these people to me!"

When the words came out, everyone was shocked.

The soldiers didn't move for a while, but all the members of the Li clan stopped what they were doing and looked over.

Li Fugui came over, bowed and said: "It turned out to be the magistrate, and the younger ones didn't do anything against the law, why suddenly..."

Cao Zhixian pointed to the two horses in front of the four-wheeled carriage, and said loudly: "How dare you argue? What is this? This is clearly an excellent war horse! Daxiang prohibits civilians from buying and selling war horses, and you still say you are innocent?!"

"Hey, it's really a war horse. A war horse of this quality might cost thousands of taels to buy one, right?"

"I don't think so. The saddles of these two horses seem to be very expensive..."

The soldiers next to them began to discuss in low voices, Cao Zhixian heard it, and hurried to look at the horse's back, it turned out that it was really a gold-plated black leather saddle, well-made and luxurious, not for ordinary people to use.

"What a bold..."

Just as Cao Zhixian was about to shout excitedly, his head froze suddenly, and he hurriedly asked, "You also bought this car?"

"This is not, this is Mr. Mu's."

While speaking, Li Fugui secretly observed Cao Zhixian's expression, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

If the county magistrate really wanted to search their carriage, the weapons, arrows and crossbows in it really couldn't be explained clearly.

Fortunately, just after he finished that sentence, Cao Zhixian's expression on the opposite side became a little weird. The latter lowered his voice and asked, "Mr. Mu? Is it the one in purple?"

Li Fugui recalled what Fan Chen looked like when he left today, and nodded.

Cao Zhixian suddenly slapped his thigh hard, and said excitedly: "No matter what the identity of Mr. Mu, he died in Zhangxiang City today, and I must investigate this matter clearly."

He said, regardless of Li Fugui's expression in front of him, he waved his hand, "Come here! Detain these people, as for the carriages and ox carts, we will make a decision after I find out the truth!"

The magistrate of Cao County was spitting all over the place, but the soldiers and the civilians who fled up the mountain looked at each other in blank dismay.

The leader of the army knew a lot about Cao Zhi County, who had been in office for one year.

This person usually procrastinates with the affairs of the people as long as he can, just like when he proposed to go to the city to rescue the flood, he was slapped in the face by the magistrate Cao.

Not to mention reporting to the officials to appeal for grievances. The person who reported the case disturbed the leisure life of Caozhi County, so there must be no good fruit to eat.

Now that he is going to take the initiative to take over such a matter, the leader of the army guessed that Cao Zhixian was thinking of some bad idea.

Because the county magistrate in their Zhangxiang city is different from the county magistrates in other places, the former still holds military power in their hands, and these big soldiers are also under the control of the county magistrate.

In the past, the military leader would just turn a blind eye and close his eyes, whatever Cao Zhixian said and what he would do, but now this situation... is really special.

They have all seen the power of Master Fang's few arrows.

Besides, these people were rescued by others anyway, and now that their lives and deaths are unknown, Cao Zhi County asked them to do this...

The leader of the army really couldn't do this thing of cutting off children and grandchildren against his conscience, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "But Master Fang and Mr. Mu have not returned yet, should we wait..."

"Wait a fart!"

Cao Zhixian spat.

He saw Mr. Mu fall into the vortex with his own eyes, and there was that infiltrating monster in the water. No matter what his identity is, Mr. Mu can only be a dead person now!
Even if he was really a powerful son of some family, he would have earned the reputation of being dedicated and responsible by doing so.

As for these people, just find a reason to catch them and lock them up, and the rest of these things can only belong to him!
Cao Zhixian's abacus was jingling, and he took advantage of the situation to lift the curtain of the carriage. When he saw the fox fur cloak inside, his eyes were straightened.

The value of all these things is added together, and I am afraid that there will be at least 5000 taels.

He immediately wanted to climb into the carriage happily and touch the material of the cloak, when suddenly something flashed out of the corner of his eye, and he was instantly kicked and rolled under the carriage!

"Cao Zhi County!"

The leader of the army was shocked, and hurried forward and dragged Cao Zhixian out with a few of his men.

All the members of the Li clan burst into laughter. Although Li Fugui didn't laugh, his face turned crooked.

Yang Gao even walked up to the two horses that were puffing restlessly and pacing up and down on the spot, stroked their mane lightly, and said bluntly: "Good kick, wonderful kick!"

Cao Zhixian was helped up in embarrassment, and he became angry from embarrassment: "How dare you disrespect this official, hurry up, take them now..."

Before he finished speaking, the mountain under his feet trembled suddenly.
