Chapter 158

In the final count of casualties, more than 40 people died in the battle of Fuyunzong, and most of the remaining 50 people were injured.

Everyone in the Floating Cloud Sect mourned for a while, and then returned to normal.

To be precise, the faces of the remaining people were even more determined.

Because more than 100 of them almost killed more than 200 people in Liushamen, and no more than ten people escaped in the end.

The main reason is that the five masters of Liushamen all died here. Compared with the casualties of Liushamen, my side has already won a big victory.

They knew that the Floating Cloud Sect would hand over the pensions to the families of those who died on their side, which was one of the reasons why they were not afraid of death.

The two girls returned to Lin Xiqi's side, their little faces flushed with excitement.

"How do you feel?" Lin Xiqi asked.

"My lord, this servant feels that the sword technique is more comfortable." Su Qingmei said a little excitedly.

"In the future, I will not be afraid of any masters I meet again." Su Qinglan said.

Killing He Tong boosted her confidence.

The convoy started on the road again, and soon arrived at a place twenty miles away from Dunhuang City, and they saw the people of the Chiyan faction.

"Under Qin Shu, I've been waiting for a long time." Qin Shu stepped forward and said.

Seeing that everyone in the Floating Cloud Sect was injured, his face changed again: "Did the Liushamen do it?"

"Who else would dare to plan on us except those from Liushamen?" Ren Yue said lightly.

Even though he knew that the Chiyan Sect was trapped in Dunhuang City by Liushamen and it was difficult to get out, Renyue was still a little angry.

After all, they had already taken a huge risk when they came here to make a betrothal gift. Apart from doing this for their elder brother, to a certain extent, it also told the other sects in Dunhuang County that their Fuyun Sect supported the Chiyan Sect and gave Chiyan Send a strong momentum.

The Floating Cloud Sect paid a considerable price, so couldn't the Chiyan Sect take the risk of finding a way to meet them?
"During this period of time, our Scarlet Flame Sect and the Liusha Sect have been fighting constantly, and our disciples have suffered a lot. Please forgive me." Qin Shu apologized.

"We also understand the situation of your faction." Renfeng said, "This time, overall, it went smoothly."

"Please!"

A group of Fuyunzong followed the people from Dunhuang City into the city.

Regarding Lin Xiqi's identity, Renfeng explained a little.

Qin Shu didn't say much about the people in the court.

If it were people from other rivers and lakes, Dunhuang City is almost under martial law now.

Because Lin Xiqi has a good relationship with Fuyunzong, and they still trust Fuyunzong in Chiyan's party, so they didn't make things difficult for Lin Xiqi.

Of course, with Lin Xiqi's status as county magistrate, the Chiyan faction is not easy to stop her.

After all, they don't want to have a big conflict with the court now.

After entering the city, Lin Xiqi separated from Renfeng and the others.

The purpose of his coming here is to go to the prefect's mansion. As for the marriage between the Floating Cloud Sect and the Chi Yan Sect, it is not good for him to intervene blatantly in his current capacity.

Lin Xiqi went directly to the Sheriff's Mansion to entertain the official residences from various counties, and then waited here to be summoned by the Sheriff.

"My lord, you are here. The rooms have been packed." Chen Changjie was waiting in front of the reception mansion, and when he saw Lin Xiqi coming, he hurried up and shouted.

When Lin Xiqi went to Fuyunzong, Chen Changjie came to Dunhuang City first, and first took care of Lin Xiqi at the county guard's mansion.

"Hehe, is this Lord Lin from Sandao County?" Suddenly a slightly yin and yang voice sounded, "Everyone, come and have a look, has any of you seen our colleague?"

Lin Xiqi couldn't help looking at the door, only to see a man in his 40s coming out of it.

This man was wearing the magistrate's official uniform, so he was obviously a county magistrate.

But Lin Xiqi didn't think he was, and he had never seen any other magistrates in Dunhuang City.

"My lord, he is Guan Zhimiao, the magistrate of Ming'an County." Chen Changjie introduced Lin Xiqi in a low voice.

"Oh, it's Mr. Guan next door to us." Lin Xiqi nodded slightly.

Ming'an County is adjacent to Sandao County. When Fuyunzong wiped out the three bandits of Wang Long, the Three Evil Mountains were actually under the rule of Ming'an County.

Lin Xiqi can understand Guan Zhimiao's eccentricity now, after all, he has crossed the line.

When Guan Zhimiao's voice fell, four people who also wore magistrate's clothes came out from behind him. Among these four people, one of them looked to be in his thirties, and the other three were older and looked a little bit older. More than 50 looks.

"Liang Mo, the magistrate of Xiaogu County, Shi Zhuxi, the magistrate of Yuanquan County, Dong Qiao, the magistrate of Guangzhi County, and Hao Feng, the magistrate of Longle County." Chen Changjie continued to introduce Lin Xiqi in a low voice.

Liang Mo, Shi Zhuxi and Dong Qiao are all in their 50s, while Hao Feng is the youngest in his 30s.

"I didn't expect all the adults to be here, my younger brother is polite." Lin Xiqi smiled and said.

He didn't expect that other than himself, other magistrates were here, and there was a Dunhuang county government in Dunhuang city.

Speaking of which, the Sheriff's Office didn't seem to have informed him.

It can be seen from this that the prefect's mansion doesn't care about himself as the county magistrate at all.

This time I came here by myself, and I don't know what happened, it seems that I have caught up.

Several people took a look at Lin Xiqi. They had all heard that the magistrate of Sandao County was very young, but now it seemed that he was just a kid.

Thinking about myself being 50 or [-] years old, still a county magistrate, and sitting on an equal footing with Lin Xiqi, they both feel a little unfair in their hearts.

Even Hao Feng is over 30 years old, and he was born as a Jinshi.

I still despise people like Lin Xiqi in my heart.

They also know that Lin Xiqi's official position was obtained by spending millions of taels of silver, which is not something ordinary people can do.

"I heard that Mr. Lin recently exterminated the Wang family in Sandao County. It seems that he has gained a lot. It is really gratifying." Guan Zhimiao said.

"Master Guan is really well informed. The Wang family in Hengxing Township, Sandao County, colluded with bandits to rob the past shops. It is a heinous crime." Lin Xiqi laughed, "This time, the younger brother came here to report the matter to the Lord Sheriff. I don't know how many people Why did your lord come here?"

"Hmph!" Guan Zhimiao snorted coldly, "Lord Lin, I don't care if you suppress the bandits, and I don't care to punish the bullies in the county, but you entered my Xiaogu County to suppress the bandits, what kind of reasoning is that?"

"Really?" Lin Xiqi asked with a puzzled face, "Master Guan, is there such a thing?"

"Are you still playing tricks?" Guan Zhimiao said, "Isn't the Three Evil Mountains under my Xiaogu County's jurisdiction?"

"Master Chen, is that so?" Lin Xiqi asked Chen Changjie beside him in surprise.

"This~~" Chen Changjie hesitated and said, "It seems that Wang is eager to arrest the murderer, maybe a little too much. Moreover, this matter is also led by the Fuyun Sect. The people of the Floating Cloud Sect want to find the people from the Three Ominous Mountains. Let us Even the yamen servants of the county government can't stop them."

"Absurd, stupid!" Lin Xiqi yelled, "It's really unreasonable. Did Wang Dong eat the courage of the bear? He is just a small headhunter, and dare to take the initiative in such a big matter as crossing the line?"

Chen Changjie bowed his body and dared not answer any more.
