The general heard this question, and his expression froze instantly.

The next second, Qin Shou's right foot suddenly increased the force and stepped down hard. Suddenly, the crisp sound of broken bones rang out clearly.

"I say! I say! Don't kill me!"

The general was completely submissive and hurriedly said: "The court has sent down relief grain, but I don't know where it went, only the governor knows!"

"Oh, so that's the case. This corrupt official dared to embezzle even relief grain. It seems that I have to be a hero today and kill the corrupt official with my own hands!"

Qin Shou slightly loosened his feet, and the general's face below, which had been flushed, began to breathe in fresh air in big gulps.

The victims behind him were heartbroken when they heard that the relief grain was missing and only the governor knew about it. How could the people fight against the officials?

At this critical moment, the towering city gate suddenly opened in an instant.

A group of soldiers and horses came out from inside, and the leader was an official riding a tall horse.

Following closely behind him were a group of soldiers in black armor, among whom there were archers, and a small group of elite cavalry guarding on both sides.

When the general saw that the reinforcements had arrived, he hurriedly rolled and crawled to the front of the mounted official. After he stood up in a panic, he pointed at Qin Shou and said in panic: "Zhou Taishou, it is this man, and this group of unruly people, who are trying to attack our Lingshui City and rob food."

"Rob food?"

Zhou Taishou's eyes, which seemed to be able to see through everything, slowly cast on the group of disaster victims. They were all ragged and shabby, and they were all unarmed. In this state, how could this be considered an attack on the city to rob food? It was simply absurd and like a joke.

He could not help but feel angry, "General Li, are you teasing me? You can't handle them alone, and I have to lead the troops here?"

"That's not the case, Governor. I'm not teasing you. That man is very powerful. He knocked down all of our soldiers guarding the gate by himself."

General Li quickly pointed his finger at the young man in white.

Governor Zhou looked at him intently. He was white-faced and beardless, young, and tall and slender. No matter how you look at him, he looks like a rich young man or a scholar.

How could such a person beat these veteran soldiers guarding the city gate? You know, these veterans have been on the battlefield in the past!

"Are you the governor?"

Qin Shou suddenly became aggressive and pointed directly at the official on the horse.

"That's right. I am the governor of Lingshui City, Zhou Li. May I ask why you attacked my city?" Governor Zhou admitted it frankly and asked back.

"You corrupt official! How dare you embezzle the relief grain? Today I will enforce justice and eliminate harm for the people!"

Qin Shou shouted angrily. While speaking, he raised his foot and suddenly hooked up a broken long spear on the ground. His right hand secretly gathered strength and was about to throw it at Zhou Li.

At this moment, a girl's voice like a yellow oriole suddenly sounded, "Don't do it!"

As soon as this voice came out, the strength in Qin Shou's hand suddenly dissipated. Looking closely, he saw a pretty girl in a red dress suddenly running beside Zhou Li.

There were tears in her eyes, and she was gently wiping the tears on her face with her sleeves.

"Guo Guo!" Qin Shou blurted out and called out involuntarily.

Everyone present was bewildered, especially Zhou Li, who was extremely surprised that the man who threatened to take his life was actually acquainted with his precious daughter.

Zhou Guoguo ran over quickly, and Zhou Li hurriedly stopped her and said, "Guoguo, come back, don't go over, this man is very dangerous!"

However, Zhou Guoguo would not pay attention to her father's urgent shouting, but just lifted the hem of her red skirt slightly and ran away.

Then, she suddenly crashed into Qin Shou's broad arms.

"Master..." A mosquito-like whisper sounded softly in Qin Shou's arms, followed by bursts of uncontrollable sobbing.

"Guoguo!" Qin Shou hugged Zhou Guoguo tightly, stretched out his hand and gently stroked the back of her head.

Zhou Li was shocked and his eyes widened, not knowing how to react.

The soldiers around them looked at each other in bewilderment, not understanding the inexplicable situation before them.

You know, Zhou Guoguo is the daughter of the governor!

That's serious.

A lady from a noble family.

It is said that she once went to the place where immortals lived and practiced for several years.

Now that she has returned, there are countless rich young men and young talents in the city who love her and chase her.

But now, she is openly hugging a strange man!
