We agreed that you, a weak strategist, would fight against three heroes by yourself?

Li Zheng walked to the door of his house with an angry look on his face, and his eyes fell directly on Xi Yu and the other three.

When he saw Wang Xiaoer, the anger on his face soared instantly, as if he was about to erupt into flames.

Then, he glanced at the other two people and couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "These other two are the couple, right? They don't look like serious people."

Li Zheng's brows furrowed even more tightly, and there was a surge of dissatisfaction and irritability in his heart.

Wang Xiaoer quickly whispered to Xi Yu: "This is Li Zheng." His voice trembled slightly, revealing a hint of timidity.

At this time, Xi Yu looked at Li Zheng with a smile and a calm expression, and said softly: "Master Li Zheng, we have something to ask you." His voice was gentle and firm, without the slightest fear.

Li Zheng frowned and said impatiently: "If you have anything to say, tell me quickly! I don't have time to waste time with you." His eyes revealed his distrust of Xi Yu.

Xi Yu looked directly at Li Zheng, with firmness and doubt in his eyes. He asked unceremoniously: "Master Li Zheng, what is going on with the bridge construction? Why are some people cutting corners? What is going on? ? Could it be that the money was embezzled by you?"

His voice was not loud, but it carried an unmistakable momentum.

After hearing Xi Yu's words, Li Zheng's face instantly darkened. He glared at Xi Yu and shouted angrily: "What are you talking about! I, Li Zheng, have always been honest and upright, how could I do such a thing!"

His hands were clenched into fists, trembling slightly, obviously irritated by Xi Yu's words.

Xi Yu was unmoved. He still looked at Li Zheng without changing his expression and said calmly: "Then why does this happen? I have to give everyone an explanation."

Li Zheng's frown deepened. He took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and said, "I am also investigating this matter and will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."

Then, Li Zheng's eyes widened with anger and he asked stiffly: "Who are you? What qualifications do you have to question this matter?" His voice was full of majesty and questioning.

Xi Yu did not flinch. He stood up straight, looked at Li Zheng firmly, and replied loudly: "I am a person who upholds justice, and I have the right to know the truth of the matter!" His voice was sonorous and powerful, with a hint of aura. Share firmness and justice.

Li Zheng looked Xi Yu up and down, a trace of doubt and disdain flashed in his eyes, "You? What evidence do you have to prove that I embezzled the money to repair the bridge?" His tone was full of doubts.

Xiyu sneered.

"Although I have no direct evidence, the bridge repair matter is related to the interests of each of us, and we have the right to know the whole story!" His eyes revealed unyielding and persistence.

After hearing Xi Yu's words, Li Zheng's face became even more ugly. He raised his voice and said, "Huh! You just want to slander me with just a few words? Do you think I am doing this for nothing?"

His chest heaved violently, obviously irritated by Xi Yu's questioning.

Xi Yu said calmly: "Lord Li Zheng, I don't mean to slander you, I just want to find out about the bridge repair. This bridge is related to the safety of the village, so we can't be careless in the slightest."

His tone was firm and calm, which made people trust him a little more.

Li Zheng looked at Xi Yu and couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He didn't expect Xi Yu to have such a firm attitude.

Wang Xiaoer watched from the side, secretly sweating for Xi Yu.

Li Zheng looked at Xi Yu with cold eyes and said viciously: "I advise you not to meddle in other people's business! This is our village's business, and it's not your turn as an outsider to interfere!" There was a hint of threat in his voice.

Xi Yu straightened his body, looked directly into Li Zheng's eyes without fear, and replied calmly: "Although I am not from this village, I can't watch you messing around like this!" His tone was firm, no Not flinching at all.

Li Zheng frowned, with a ferocious expression on his face, and shouted angrily: "Hmph! Do you dare to confront me? Believe it or not, I will ask someone to arrest you!"

Xi Yu sneered and said, "Do you think I'm afraid of you? I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter!" His eyes were full of firmness and determination.

Li Zheng was so angry that he gritted his teeth, pointed at Xi Yu and said, "Just wait and see!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked away.

Wang Xiaoer looked at Xi Yu anxiously, and asked with a trembling voice: "What should we do? Li Zheng...he will definitely not give up." His eyes were full of worry and fear.

Xi Yu patted Wang Xiaoer on the shoulder and comforted him calmly: "Don't be afraid, Wang Xiaoer. We have done nothing wrong and there is no need to be afraid of his threats."

Wang Xiaoer nodded, but still said with some worry: "But, Li Zheng is very powerful in this village, how can we fight against him?"

Xi Yu smiled slightly and comforted: "Don't worry, we will find evidence and let the truth come out."

The corners of Tuobayu's mouth raised slightly, revealing a sarcastic smile. He looked at Wang Xiaoer and said, "Hey, Wang Xiaoer, what's going on? You were very brave when you made trouble. Why are you scared now?" "

His eyes were full of disdain and ridicule.

After hearing Tuobayu's words, Wang Xiaoer blushed a little, smiled sheepishly, scratched his head, and murmured: "I... wasn't I impulsive?"

His voice was low and slightly ashamed.

Tuobayu sneered and said, "On impulse? Do you know that this matter is not that simple."

Wang Xiaoer raised his head, looked at Tuobayu, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and said, "I know, I will face it together with you."

Satomasa walked into a room with a gloomy look on his face, his eyes flashing with anger.

There are several people playing chess here. They sit around an old wooden table and stare at the chessboard intently.

These people are all Li Zheng's confidants. One is a tall man with a sinister face. When playing chess, his thick fingers hold the chess pieces tightly, as if he is in control of the entire situation.

The other was a tall and thin man with a stern face and sharp eyes, and every move he made was decisive and decisive.

There is also a man of medium build who looks quite shrewd. He always has a vague smile on his lips, making it difficult for people to understand his thoughts.

When several people who were playing chess saw this, they stopped what they were doing and stepped forward to greet him.

Li Zheng gritted his teeth and lowered his voice and said: "That Wang Xiaoer doesn't know how big the world is, how dare he offend me! I decided to show him some color, you go and arrest his mother for me now." There was a hint of coldness and determination in his voice.

The few people looked at each other, and one of them nodded and said, "Okay, Lord Satsuma, we'll do it now."

The other person showed a fierce look on his face and said viciously: "Humph, this kid really doesn't know how to live and die, how dare he offend Mr. Satsuma."

After that, they hurried away to carry out Li Zheng's order.

In the somewhat dim room, Ms. Wang was sitting quietly at the table doing needlework. The sunlight shone on her body through the window, casting a faint shadow.

Suddenly, there was a burst of rapid footsteps, followed by a "bang", and several people barged in without warning.

Ms. Wang was so frightened by the sudden movement that she almost dropped the needle and thread in her hand. Her eyes widened with shock on her face.

"Who are you? What are you doing?" Wang asked with a trembling voice, her eyes filled with fear.

One of them frowned and said impatiently: "Come with us quickly!"

When Wang heard this, she was even more panicked.

"Go? Where? Why?"

The man snorted coldly and said, "Your son Wang Xiaoer offended Li Zheng, and now Mr. Li Zheng wants to see you."

When she heard this, Wang's face instantly turned pale, and tears flowed down uncontrollably. She cried and murmured to herself: "I told him not to let him meddle in his own business, but he didn't listen. What's going on? It’s a good idea..."

Her shoulders were shaking slightly, her face was full of pain and helplessness, and her eyes revealed deep worry and anxiety.

Those few people didn't care about this, they stepped forward and were ready to pull Wang's hand.

"Stop dawdling, let's go!"

Wang stood up staggeringly, and was pulled out by them with tears on her face, still muttering her son's name...

Wang was taken to a dark room by those people, and then the door was slammed shut with a bang.

Mrs. Wang slapped the door in fear and cried: "Let me out! Master Li Zheng, please, I really know that I was wrong. I will definitely let the waiter come to apologize to you. Please Let me out!"

Her voice was full of despair and fear, echoing in the small space.

However, there was no response from outside the door, and her plea for mercy was like a stone sinking in the sea, without causing any waves.

Mrs. Wang weakly leaned against the door and sat on the ground, tears flowing freely, still muttering: "Xiaoer, what should I do, mother, please don't let anything happen to you..."

She felt extremely helpless and lonely in this dark room. Time seemed to become extremely long, and she suffered every minute and every second.

But no matter how much she cried and begged for mercy, there was never a glimmer of hope.

After an unknown amount of time, Wang sat there with dull eyes, as if he had lost all energy.

He just kept mumbling his son's name from time to time, and his heart was filled with worry and pain.

Xi Yu hurriedly came to a hidden corner.

He unbuckled his belt and began to pee, letting out a small sigh of relief.

After that, he suddenly frowned slightly, as if he remembered something important.

He looked around anxiously, then lowered his voice and shouted: "Where is the secret guard?"

Almost instantly, a dark figure flashed out from the darkness, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully: "My subordinate is here."

Xi Yu had a serious face, worry in his eyes, and said eagerly: "It suddenly occurred to me that there is a narrow-minded person there who might attack Wang Xiaoer's mother. You should go to Wang Xiaoer's house quickly and be sure to protect her. His mother’s safety!”

The secret guard immediately responded: "Yes, I obey your orders!" After saying that, he was about to fly away.

Xi Yu quickly added: "Don't take it lightly. If anything goes wrong, I will ask you for it!" His expression was very solemn and he stared at the secret guard closely.

The secret guard nodded solemnly, then flashed and disappeared into the darkness.

Xi Yu stood there, his brows still furrowed, silently praying in his heart that everything would be safe.

The secret guard sneaked into Wang's house quietly like a ghost, but there was no one in the house.

His brows furrowed tightly, and he secretly screamed: "Oh no, Wang is not here, I'm afraid something really happened."

He quickly walked around the room, searching carefully for any possible clues, his face terrifyingly gloomy.

"How could this happen? Am I still a step late?" He whispered to himself, his eyes full of regret and worry.

He gritted his teeth and secretly blamed himself for not getting there faster.

Then, he flashed and quickly left Wang's house, deciding to look around to see if he could find any traces of Wang or other clues, silently praying that Wang would not encounter any accidents.

His figure shuttled through the darkness, with a heart full of anxiety and eagerness, to pursue Wang, who might have been in danger.

The dark guard performed Qinggong and came to Xiyu as quickly as the wind.

His sudden appearance really frightened the unprepared Wang Xiaoer. Wang Xiaoer widened his eyes in fear and his body unconsciously stepped back a few steps.

Seeing this, Xiyu hurriedly said to the dark guard: "Hurry, go to the corner over there and talk." The dark guard nodded and immediately flashed to the designated corner.

Xiyu also walked over quickly and asked anxiously: "How is it? Have you found Wang?"

The dark guard shook his head solemnly.

"When I arrived at Wang's house, Wang was no longer in the house. I'm afraid she is in danger."

Xiyu's face suddenly became very ugly. He clenched his fists and said after thinking for a moment: "Go and look carefully again. You must find her whereabouts."

The dark guard responded and disappeared into the darkness again.

Xiyu stood there, frowning, full of worry and uneasiness.

Xiyu slowly returned to his original place. Wang Xiaoer hurriedly stepped forward with a nervous face and asked: "Sir, what happened to that man just now?" His eyes were full of curiosity and a little fear.

Xiyu smiled slightly and said with a relaxed look: "Oh, that's my men."

When Wang Xiaoer heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Wow, that's how it is! He just came and went without a trace, he must be very powerful!" Wang Xiaoer said excitedly, his hands still gesturing in the air.

Xiyu looked at him and nodded with a smile.

"Well, he is really good."

Wang Xiaoer became more and more happy, dancing and saying: "Haha, it seems that dealing with the village head is a piece of cake! Now we don't have to be afraid of that hateful village head!"

His face was full of expectation and joy, as if he had seen the scene after the village head was punished.

Xiyu looked at Wang Xiaoer's excitement, his mouth corners slightly raised, and said with a smile: "Don't be too happy too soon, things are not that simple."

When Wang Xiaoer heard this, the smile on his face stagnated slightly, but soon recovered, and said nonchalantly: "Oh, with such a powerful subordinate like you, are you still afraid of that little village head?"

As he said, he gestured with his hands, as if he felt that everything was already won.

Xiyu shook his head, and his expression became a little serious.

"Although the head of the village is only a small local official, he has been running this place for many years and has complicated relationships. We should not take it lightly."

After hearing this, Wang Xiaoer gradually put away his smile and nodded thoughtfully.

"Well, you are right, I thought too simply."

But then he looked at Xi Yu with shining eyes.

"However, with you and your men here, we must still have a great advantage."

Xi Yu smiled at Wang Xiaoer's expectant eyes.

"Well, we will naturally try our best, but we still have to act cautiously."

After saying that, Xi Yu fell into deep thought and began to think about the next plan and countermeasures.

Wang Xiaoer was standing aside, frowning and nodding from time to time, and seemed to be secretly planning something in his heart.

Just then, the sly-looking second-rate guy came over leisurely.

With a malicious smile on his face, he said to Wang Xiaoer in a sarcastic tone: "Wang Xiaoer, your mother was arrested by the head of the village!"

When Wang Xiaoer heard this, his eyes widened, his face full of astonishment, and his mouth slightly opened.

"What did you say? My mother was arrested by the head of the village?"

The second-rate man smiled and nodded, "Yes, the head of the village asked you to find him under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village!"

Wang Xiaoer's face turned pale in an instant, and his body trembled slightly, "How could this happen..."

His eyes were full of panic and helplessness.

Xiyu's face also sank, and he stared at the second-rate man sharply, as if he wanted to see something from his expression.

The second-rate man didn't care about Xiyu's gaze at all, and still looked at Wang Xiaoer triumphantly.

"Hmph, hurry up, you don't know what will happen if you go too late."

After saying that, he also let out a disgusting laugh.

Wang Xiaoer gritted his teeth tightly, his fists clenched so hard that they made a creaking sound. He was angry and anxious, not knowing what to do.

Xiyu stepped forward quickly, put his hands on Wang Xiaoer's shoulders, looked at him firmly, and said, "Xiaoer, don't worry first."

Wang Xiaoer's face was full of anxiety and worry, tears flashed in his eyes, and he said anxiously, "Sir, my mother has been arrested, how can I not be anxious!"

"Don't panic, we will accompany you together and will not let you face it alone."

Tuoba Yu also stepped forward and said seriously, "Yes, Wang Xiaoer, we will help you, don't be afraid."

Wang Xiaoer calmed down a little after hearing what they said, but his face was still full of tension. He bit his lip and said, "Okay, let's go quickly."

Xiyu nodded, and the three of them walked together towards the big locust tree at the entrance of the village.

The second-rate guy looked at Xiyu and the others and said with a mocking smile, "Oh, you brought helpers with you. I think you are doing more harm than good!"

He squinted his eyes and looked disdainful.

Xiyu's face darkened and he was about to speak, but Tuoba Yu beside him was already furious. (End of this chapter)
