Li Zheng's heart was filled with anguish and reluctance: "How could I be reduced to such a state? I am so embarrassed in front of these villagers. Where has my usual prestige gone!"

He gritted his teeth tightly, his cheeks bulged high, and his eyes shone with anger and shame.

He glanced at the surrounding villagers viciously, and thought bitterly in his heart: "It's all because of these two nosy guys that make me so embarrassed. When I get the chance, I will make them look good!"

But then he realized his situation at the moment, and felt depressed, "Oh, I'm afraid I'm really doomed this time. What should I do..."

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

Xi Yu's face was gloomy, his eyes were fixed on Li Zheng, and he gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Speak! Hurry up and explain what you did on the bridge repair issue!"

His eyes were full of majesty and anger, as if he wanted to see right through.

But Li Zheng lowered his head, pursed his lips tightly, and said not a word, his body trembling slightly.

When Tuobayu saw this, he suddenly became angry. He stepped forward, raised his hand and slapped Li Zheng hard in the face, roaring: "Are you mute? I want you to speak quickly!"

Her face was red with anger, veins popped out on her forehead, and the hand that hit people was still in mid-air.

Li Zheng was staggered 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 then For a long time I couldn't explain why.

Tuobayu's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You still won't tell me?"

As he spoke, he raised his hand and hit you hard, one after another, while shouting angrily: "If you don't say anything, believe it or not, I will twist your head off right now!"

Many people around looked at Tuobayu dealing with Li Zheng in this way, with very happy expressions on their faces. Some people whispered: "Good fight, let him dominate on weekdays!"

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

When Mrs. Wang heard this, her face was full of worry. She frowned and hurriedly grabbed her son and persuaded her, "Xiao Er, don't go there. It's too dangerous."

Wang Xiaoer, however, had a firm face and stubbornness in his eyes, and said stubbornly: "Mom, I have to go, I'm not worried." After saying that, regardless of his mother's obstruction, he resolutely walked towards the scene.

Seeing that Li Zheng was still keeping his lips tightly shut and not speaking, Tuoyu Yu was so angry that veins popped up on his forehead, and shouted angrily: "Do you really want to die?"

She clenched her fists tightly, as if she would punch Satsuma again at any time.

Xi Yu frowned, stared at Li Zheng sharply, and said firmly: "He is stalling for time. He must be waiting for others to save him." His expression was serious and calm.

Hearing this, Tuobayu looked at Xi Yu with confusion and asked eagerly: "What's going on?"

Xi Yu looked solemn and said slowly: "Didn't you notice? There is one less thug in Li Zheng. In my opinion, that person must have gone to a certain place to report the news."

There was thought and insight in his eyes.

At this moment, Li Zheng suddenly looked up to the sky and burst into laughter. The laughter was full of arrogance and disdain.

There was a triumphant look on his face, the corners of his mouth raised high, and he said sarcastically: "Haha, that's it! I didn't expect you, a brat like you, to be so smart, you could guess it!"

His eyes were full of provocation, staring at Xi Yu and Tuoyu Yu fiercely.

Then, he continued to say arrogantly: "Now that I know, what can I do? So what if you can fight? Can you defeat the forces behind me? Haha!"

He laughed wildly, as if he was sure of victory. He looked extremely arrogant and didn't take the two of them seriously at all.

"If you are sensible, let me go immediately, otherwise you will suffer a lot!" His eyes flashed with a sinister light.

At this moment, I heard a rush of footsteps approaching from far away, and many government servants rushed in like a tide.

When Li Zheng saw it, he suddenly showed a look of ecstasy, dancing and shouting: "Haha, you are here! Quick, catch these two troublemakers!"

His eyes were wide open, and his face was full of pride and arrogance, as if he had seen the tragic situation of Tuobayu and Xiyu after they were caught.

When Tuobayu saw this, he sneered, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said sarcastically: "Huh, there really is a backstage."

There was a trace of disdain in her eyes, and she folded her hands in front of her chest, looking unconcerned.

The common people who saw this scene were immediately frightened. They all looked frightened and whispered among themselves.

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

The woman next to me also echoed: "Yes, what can we do!"

They all sweated for Xi Yu and Tuo Bayu, their faces full of anxiety and uneasiness.

Xi Yu's face was solemn, his brows furrowed tightly, and his eyes revealed a hint of perseverance and calmness.

I saw many government officials quickly surrounding Xi Yu and Tuoyu Yu, each holding a weapon and looking stern.

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

His expression was serious, staring straight at the government officials in front of him.

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

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

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

He straightened his back and looked at the yamen runner fearlessly.

Tuoba Yu also snorted coldly on the side: "That's right, you arrest people without knowing right or wrong, is there any law!"

Her face was full of anger and unwillingness, and her hands were clenched tightly.

The people around looked at each other, secretly sweating for Xi Yu and Tuoba Yu.

At this tense moment, Wang Xiaoer hurried over.

When he saw the scene in front of him where many yamen runners surrounded Xi Yu and the other two, his eyes widened, his face full of astonishment, his mouth slightly opened, and he couldn't help but let out a cry: "Ah!"

His face turned pale in an instant, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He suddenly realized in his heart: "It turns out that the head of the village actually has the county magistrate as his backer!"

Then, he looked at Xi Yu with a guilty 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 a little trembling.

After saying that, Wang Xiaoer's eyes suddenly turned red, tears rolled in his eyes, and then he cried like a flood, "Wow", his shoulders kept twitching, and he cried and choked and said: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."

That look really made people feel distressed.

Looking at the chaotic situation in front of them, the hearts of the common people were like a bottle of five flavors that had been overturned, extremely complicated.

They thought secretly in their hearts. On the one hand, they were full of gratitude to Wang Xiaoer. Thinking about Wang Xiaoer's warm heart and doing so many good things for everyone, he was such a kind and brave man.

He fought for justice for everyone, and this enthusiasm was worthy of praise and remembrance.

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

Xiyu looked at the crying Wang Xiaoer with a firm and gentle look.

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

Then, Xiyu turned around abruptly, staring at the yamen runners with sharp eyes, and shouted: "Is this what the county magistrate meant?"

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

The leading yamen runner heard the words, and the corner of his mouth curled up a sneer of contempt, and sneered: "Of course it is like this, hum!" His eyes were full of pride and arrogance.

When Xi Yu heard this, a flash 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 firm, and his eyes were bright and sharp, as if he was about to spit out fire.

"He condoned the village head to do evil, so he can't escape responsibility!"

When the people around heard this, they couldn't help but nod secretly, and they admired Xi Yu a little more in their hearts.

"Alas..." An old man couldn't help but sighed, his face full of sorrow. He shook his head and said softly, "Even if it's to uphold justice, what can I do."

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

A woman next to him also echoed: "Yes, the arm can't twist the thigh, what can I do." Her face was full of anxiety, and her hands kept twisting the corners of her clothes.

"These two people obviously came to solve the problem for us with good intentions, but they ended up suffering this disaster." Another middle-aged man also said with a look of regret, his eyes full of reluctance, biting his lips tightly.

"It's so unfair, how can the world be like this!" Someone shouted in grief and anger, his face full of indignation.

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

Tuoba Yu's face became extremely gloomy, his hands were slightly clenched, his eyes revealed a touch of determination and fierceness, as if ready to take action at any time.

The head of the village saw Tuoba Yu's appearance, but he sneered wantonly, the laughter was sharp and piercing.

He sneered with a smug look on his face: "Haha, you want to take action? Think about it carefully, if you dare to attack the yamen runners, the crime is not small!"

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 head of the village looked particularly hideous at this moment, as if he had seen Tuoba Yu in a desperate situation, 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 serious and worried.

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

Her expression was angry and stubborn, and the veins on her forehead were slightly protruding.

The head of the village saw this and immediately raised his head and laughed wantonly, and the laughter was particularly arrogant.

His face was full of smugness, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he said sarcastically: "Haha, it seems that they have given in! What a coward!"

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

The surrounding government officials also showed contemptuous smiles, as if they were looking at two clowns.

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

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

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

Seeing this scene, Li Zheng let out a harsh sneer again.

The fat on his face trembled with pride, and he said angrily: "Huh, are you scared now? Why did you go there earlier! Follow me obediently, haha!"

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

As he spoke, he shook his head triumphantly, as if appreciating his "victory".

The people around him looked at Li Zheng's arrogant appearance, and their hearts were filled with anger and helplessness.

At this tense moment, Wang Xiaoer looked at Xi Yu in confusion, frowned tightly, and asked eagerly: "Brother Xi Yu, wasn't there a person who appeared quickly like a ghost? Why didn't he appear? Woolen cloth?"

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

After hearing this, Xi Yu looked calm. He just shook his head slightly and said calmly: "Of course it won't show up when it's not supposed to show up."

There wasn't much emotion on his face, but his eyes looked a little deep.

When Wang Xiaoer heard this, his eyes widened immediately, his face was full of confusion, and he murmured: "What...what does this mean? Why can't I understand it?"

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

Xi Yu stared at the government officials with burning eyes, his face as calm as water, and slowly said: "Are you sure you want to take us two away?"

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

One of the yamen servants frowned impatiently and shouted at the top of his voice: "What nonsense! Stop talking!"

He had a ferocious look on his face, the corners of his mouth were curled up, and his eyes were full of irritation.

After hearing this, Xi Yu nodded expressionlessly, and then said in a cold voice: "Okay, I hope you don't regret it."

There was an imperceptible coldness in his eyes, as if foreshadowing something.

Xi Yu and Tuo Bayu looked at each other, then walked indifferently to keep up with the yamen servant.

Many people looked at their departing figures with pain and helplessness on their faces. Some of them bit their lips tightly, while others sighed.

At this time, Li Zheng walked forward with a proud look on his face. He squinted at the people and said coldly: "Listen to me. If anyone dares to cause trouble again in the future, we will arrest them too!"

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

When the people heard this, their hearts tightened, and a trace of fear flashed in some people's eyes.

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

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

Wang Xiaoer stood there, his face so gloomy that he could drip water, his teeth clenched and his cheeks bulging.

At this time, an old man with gray hair walked up to Wang Xiaoer and said helplessly and with a hint of fear: "My child, it seems that Li Zheng is really not someone to mess with." He shook his head slightly, his eyes full of worry. Vicissitudes and worries.

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

His expression was full of stubbornness and unwillingness.

People around him were attracted by his actions and cast doubtful glances. Some people 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 person will definitely appear again, and he will seek justice for us!" His eyes were full of hope and determination.

"Wang Xiaoer, what's going on with that ghost-like person?" A commoner came over curiously and asked, with an expression on his face that was eager to know the answer.

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

There was a mysterious light in his eyes, and his expression was very serious.

"Oh? Very powerful? How powerful is that?" 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 yamen servant. They must have There is a way out.”

"You mean, they must have known that nothing would happen to them, so they followed him so calmly?" someone asked.

Wang Xiaoer nodded.

"Hmph, Wang Xiaoer, please stop talking nonsense here. I don't believe in such ghost-like people!" A middle-aged man frowned with disapproval on his face and curled his lips.

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 things you said?" Another person also echoed, his eyes full of suspicion.

Wang Xiaoer opened his mouth and wanted to explain again, but seeing the distrustful expressions of the crowd, he could only sigh helplessly.

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