The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

The head of the village was filled with annoyance and resentment, "How could I have fallen to such a state? I have lost face in front of these villagers. Where has my usual prestige gone?"

He clenched his teeth, his cheeks puffed up, and his eyes flashed with anger and shame.

He glanced at the villagers around him viciously, thinking bitterly in his heart: "It's all because of these two nosy guys that I'm embarrassed. When I get the chance, I'm going to teach them a lesson!"

But then he realized his current situation and felt depressed. "Oh, I'm afraid there's really no escape this time. What should I do..."

There was a trace of despair and helplessness in his eyes, and the whole person seemed to have aged a lot in an instant. The arrogance and arrogance of the past were gone, leaving only embarrassment and helplessness in his heart.

Xi Yu's face was gloomy, his eyes were fixed on the head of the village, he gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Tell me! Tell me quickly, what exactly did you do on the bridge repair issue!"

His eyes were full of majesty and anger, as if he could see through the head of the village.

The head of the village lowered his head, his lips tightly closed, he didn't say a word, and his body was trembling slightly.

Seeing this, Tuoba Yu was immediately furious. He took a step forward, raised his hand and slapped the village head hard, shouting, "Are you mute? I told you to speak quickly!"

Her face turned red with anger, veins bulged on her forehead, and the hand that was hitting her was still suspended in mid-air.

The head of the village staggered after being hit by the slap, and a clear palm print instantly appeared on his face. He raised his head in horror, his eyes full of panic and fear, and stammered, "I... I..." But he couldn't make any words out for a long time.

Tuoba Yu's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't you tell me?"

Then he raised his hand and hit him hard, again and again, shouting angrily: "If you don't tell me, believe it or not, I will break your head right now!"

Many people around looked very happy when they saw how Tuoba Yu dealt with the head of the village. Some people whispered, "Well done! He will be able to bully others!"

At this time, after Wang Xiaoer settled his mother down, he said to his mother Wang: "Mom, I decided to go to the scene again to take a look."

When Wang heard this, her face was filled with worry. She frowned and hurriedly grabbed her son, saying, "Xiaoer, don't go over there. It's too dangerous."

Wang Xiaoer, however, had a determined look on his face and stubbornness in his eyes. He said stubbornly: "Mom, I must go. I'm worried." After that, he ignored his mother's attempts to stop him and walked towards the scene resolutely.

Seeing that the head of the village still kept his lips tightly shut, Tuoba Yu was so angry that veins popped out on his forehead, and he roared with his eyes wide open: "Do you really want to die?"

She clenched her fists tightly, as if she would punch the head of the village again at any time.

Xi Yu frowned, stared at the head of the village sharply, and said firmly: "He is delaying time, he must be waiting for someone to rescue him." His expression was serious and calm.

Hearing this, Tuoba Yu looked at Xi Yu with a puzzled look on his face and asked anxiously, "What's going on?"

Xi Yu's face was solemn, and he said slowly: "Didn't you notice? One of the village head's thugs is missing. In my opinion, that person must have gone somewhere to report the news."

There was thought and insight in his eyes.

At this moment, the head of the village suddenly laughed out loud, his laughter was full of arrogance and disdain.

With a smug look on his face, he raised the corners of his mouth high and said sarcastically: "Haha, that's it! I didn't expect that you, a bad boy, are so smart that you can actually guess it!"

His eyes were full of provocation as he stared at Xi Yu and Tuoba Yu viciously.

Then, he continued arrogantly: "Now that you know, what can you do? Even if you can fight, what can you do? Can you beat the forces behind me? Haha!"

He laughed wildly, as if he was sure of victory. He looked extremely arrogant and did not take the two people seriously at all.

"If you know what's good for you, let me go. Otherwise, you will be in trouble!" There was a sinister light flashing in his eyes.

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps was heard coming from afar, and many yamen runners came quickly like a tide.

When the village head saw them, he was immediately overjoyed, waving his hands and shouting, "Haha, you're here! Quick, catch these two troublemakers!"

His eyes were wide open, his face full of pride and arrogance, as if he had seen the miserable state of Tuoba Yu and Xi Yu after being captured.

Seeing this, Tuoba Yu sneered, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and said sarcastically: "Humph, you really have a backer."

There was a hint of disdain in her eyes, and she crossed her arms over her chest, looking as if she didn't care.

The common people who saw this scene were immediately terrified. They all looked terrified and started whispering to each other.

One of the old men said worriedly: "Oh, this is bad!"

The woman next to him also echoed: "Yes, what can we do?"

They were all worried about Xiyu and Tuoba Yu, their faces filled with anxiety and uneasiness.

Xi Yu's face was solemn, his brows were tightly frowned, and his eyes revealed a hint of determination and calmness.

I saw many yamen runners quickly surrounded Xi Yu and Tuoba Yu, each holding a weapon and with a stern look on their faces.

Xi Yu frowned, his eyes full of majesty and confusion, and asked loudly: "What do you want to do?"

His expression was serious and he stared straight at the bailiffs in front of him.

One of the leading yamen runners stepped forward, his face full of arrogance and arrogance, and shouted loudly: "Humph, you beat up the head of the village, this is a serious crime, you deserve to be killed!"

His eyes were wide open, as if they were about to spit fire, and the knife in his hand was slightly raised, as if he would attack at any time.

Xi Yu sneered, his eyes full of disdain, and retorted: "Humph, then we have to see what this so-called village head has done!"

He straightened his back and looked at the bailiff fearlessly.

Tuoba Yu also snorted coldly: "That's right, you arrest people without knowing right or wrong, do you still have the law?"

There was anger and resentment on her face, and her hands were clenched into fists.

The people around looked at each other, secretly worried about Xi Yu and Tuoba Yu.

At this extremely tense moment, Wang Xiaoer came hurriedly.

When he saw the many yamen runners surrounding Xi Yu and the other man, his eyes widened in shock, his mouth slightly open, and he couldn't help but let out a cry: "Ah!"

His face turned pale instantly, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He suddenly realized, "So, the village head actually has the county magistrate as his backer!"

Then, he looked at Xi Yu with a guilty look on his face, and said with trembling lips: "It's all my fault that you two were harmed!"

His eyes were full of self-blame and pain, and his voice was trembling a little.

After he finished speaking, Wang Xiaoer's eyes suddenly turned red, tears welled up in his eyes, and then he burst into tears like a flood, his shoulders twitching constantly, and he choked while crying and saying, "It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."

That look is really heartbreaking.

Looking at the chaotic situation before their eyes, the people's hearts were like an overturned bottle of five flavors, extremely complicated.

They thought secretly in their hearts that on the one hand, they were full of gratitude to Wang Xiaoer, thinking about Wang Xiaoer's usual warm-heartedness and the many good things he had done for everyone. What a kind and brave man he was.

His enthusiasm in fighting for justice for everyone deserves praise and remembrance.

But on the other hand, seeing Xiyu and Tuoba Yu now in such a predicament, they couldn't help but feel that it was indeed Wang Xiaoer's actions that implicated these two people.

Xi Yu looked at the crying Wang Xiaoer with a firm and gentle look in his eyes.

"Wang Xiaoer, you don't have to suffer so much for me." There was a soothing smile on his face, as if all this was nothing.

Then, Xi Yu turned around abruptly, stared at the yamen runners with eyes as sharp as a knife, and shouted: "Is this what the county magistrate meant?"

He frowned tightly, his face was grim, and he exuded a kind of majesty.

Upon hearing this, the leading yamen runner curled up a sneer of contempt and sneered, "Of course it's like that, huh!" His eyes were full of pride and arrogance.

When Xi Yu heard this, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. He straightened his spine and said loudly: "Then the county magistrate is also guilty!"

His expression was angry and determined, and his eyes were piercing as if they were about to spit fire.

"He condoned the village head's evil deeds, so he can't escape the blame!" When the people around heard this, they couldn't help but nod secretly, and they had a little more admiration for Xi Yu in their hearts.

"Alas..." An old man couldn't help but sighed, his face full of sorrow. He shook his head and said softly, "What can we do even if we are upholding justice?"

His eyes were full of helplessness and sadness, and his brows were tightly furrowed.

A woman next to her also echoed, "Yes, the arm is not stronger than the thigh, what should I do?" Her face was full of anxiety, and she kept twisting the corners of her clothes with her hands.

"These two people obviously came with good intentions to solve our problem, but in the end they have to suffer this disaster." Another middle-aged man also said with a look of regret, his eyes full of pity and he bit his lips tightly.

"It's so unfair, why is the world like this!" someone shouted sadly, with a look of indignation on his face.

Everyone was talking at once, with deep worry and sympathy for Xi Yu and Tuoba Yu on their faces. They looked at the two people surrounded by the yamen runners, their hearts filled with guilt and self-blame.

Tuoba Yu's face turned extremely gloomy, he clenched his hands slightly, his eyes revealed a hint of determination and ruthlessness, as if he was ready to take action at any time.

When the head of the village saw Tuoba Yu's appearance, he sneered unscrupulously, and his laughter was sharp and piercing.

He sneered with a smug look on his face: "Haha, you want to do something? Think carefully, if you dare to attack the yamen runners, it will be a serious crime!"

The corners of his mouth were raised high, revealing an expression of gloating, and his eyes were full of cunning.

The ugly face of the village head looked particularly ferocious at this moment, as if he had seen Tuoba Yu falling into despair, and his laughter was full of pleasure.

Xi Yu quickly reached out and grabbed Tuoba Yu's arm, his eyes full of tension and anxiety, and he said anxiously: "Tuoba Yu, don't be impulsive!"

He frowned, his face looking serious and worried.

Tuoba Yu turned around, his eyes full of confusion and unwillingness, and asked loudly: "Why?"

Her expression was angry and stubborn, with veins bulging slightly on her forehead.

When the village head saw this, he immediately threw back his head and laughed wildly, his laughter was particularly wild.

His face was full of pride, his eyes narrowed into slits, and he said sarcastically: "Haha, it seems that they have given in! What a pair of cowards!"

He laughed so hard that he fell backwards, and his ugly face made people want to punch him.

The yamen runners around also smiled contemptuously, as if they were looking at two clowns.

Xi Yu took a deep breath, looked at Tuoba Yu calmly, and said slowly: "Tuoba Yu, in this case, we should cooperate with the yamen runners and go with them first."

His eyes were firm and steady, revealing a calm demeanor.

Tuoba Yu was slightly startled, then quickly understood what Xi Yu meant. He nodded slightly, a hint of tacit understanding flashing in his eyes.

When the village head saw this scene, he once again let out a harsh sneer.

The fat on his face trembled with pride, and he said sarcastically: "Humph, are you scared now? What were you doing before! Just follow me obediently, haha!"

His eyes were full of ridicule and disdain, and his expression was extremely disgusting.

As he spoke, he shook his head proudly, as if he was admiring his "victory."

The people around were filled with anger and helplessness when they saw the arrogant look of the head of the village.

At this tense moment, Wang Xiaoer looked at Xiyu in confusion, frowning, and asked anxiously: "Brother Xiyu, isn't there a person who appears as fast as a ghost? Why didn't he show up?"

His eyes were full of anxiety and confusion, and his lips were trembling slightly.

Xi Yu listened, his expression calm, he just shook his head slightly, and said lightly: "When it's not time to show up, it will naturally not show up."

There wasn't much emotion on his face, except for his eyes which looked somewhat profound.

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaoer's eyes widened, his face full of confusion, and he murmured, "This...what does this mean? Why don't I understand?"

He scratched his head, his eyes full of confusion and bewilderment, and he stood there blankly, looking at a loss.

Xi Yu stared at the bailiffs with a sharp gaze, his face as calm as water, and slowly said, "Are you sure you want to take us away?"

His voice was steady and powerful, and there was a hint of majesty in his eyes as he stared at them closely.

One of the bailiffs frowned impatiently and shouted at the top of his voice: "What nonsense are you talking about! Stop talking nonsense!"

He had a ferocious look on his face, his mouth curled, and his eyes were full of annoyance.

Xi Yu listened, nodded expressionlessly, and then said in a cold voice: "Okay, I hope you won't regret it."

There was a barely perceptible cold light in his eyes, as if foreshadowing something.

Xi Yu and Tuoba Yu just looked at each other, then walked calmly and followed the pace of the yamen runners.

Many people looked at their departing backs, with pain and helplessness revealed on their faces; some bit their lips tightly, while others sighed.

At this time, the village head came forward with a smug look on his face. He glanced at the people and said coldly: "Listen to me, if anyone dares to make trouble again, I will arrest them too!"

His face was full of ferocious expressions, his triangular eyes flashed with vicious light, and there was a cruel smile on the corner of his mouth.

When the people heard this, their hearts tightened and some of them even had a hint of fear in their eyes.

Some people clenched their fists in anger, but in the end they dared not speak out and could only pray silently for Xi Yu and the others in their hearts.

The people began to disperse slowly and helplessly, and everyone's steps seemed a little heavy.

Wang Xiaoer stood there, his face so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it. He clenched his teeth and his cheeks were bulging.

At this time, a white-haired old man walked up to Wang Xiaoer, and said with helplessness and a hint of fear on his face: "Child, it seems that the village head really can't be provoked." He shook his head slightly, his eyes full of vicissitudes and worry.

Wang Xiaoer suddenly stopped when he heard this. His eyes flashed with determination. He clenched his fist and said loudly, "No! This won't end like this!"

His expression was full of stubbornness and unwillingness.

The people around him were attracted by his actions and cast doubtful glances at him. Someone couldn't help but ask, "Wang Xiaoer, what's going on with you?"

Wang Xiaoer gritted his teeth and said word by word: "That ghost-like man will definitely appear again, and he will uphold justice for us!" His eyes were full of hope and determination.

"Wang Xiaoer, what about that ghost-like person?" A commoner came over and asked curiously, with an expression of eagerness to know the answer on his face.

Wang Xiaoer frowned, as if trying to recall something, and said after a moment: "Anyway, that person is very powerful."

There was a mysterious gleam in his eyes and his expression was serious.

"Oh? Very powerful? How powerful is it?" another person asked, eyes wide open.

Wang Xiaoer pursed his lips and said firmly: "I can't say exactly how powerful it is, but it just feels very unusual. The couple seemed to know that nothing would happen to them, so they followed the bailiffs. They must have a way out."

"You mean, they must have known that they would be fine, so they followed so calmly?" someone asked.

Wang Xiaoer nodded.

"Hmph, Wang Xiaoer, stop talking nonsense here. I don't believe in any ghost-like person!" A middle-aged man frowned, his face full of disapproval, and the corner of his mouth curled up.

When Wang Xiaoer heard this, he said anxiously, "It's true! Why don't you believe it?"

"That's right, why should we believe these nonsense you said?" Another person echoed, his eyes full of doubt.

Wang Xiaoer opened his mouth and wanted to explain further, but looking at the distrustful expressions on everyone's faces, he could only sigh helplessly.

"Well, believe it or not." Wang Xiaoer shook his head helplessly, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes. (End of this chapter)
