Chapter 4405: Chapter 24-falling out _1 Chapter 4405: Chapter 24-falling out _1 The news of Jing Cha SI’s arrival quickly reached Yellow Mountain County.
When the county Magistrate heard the news, he didn’t dare to hesitate at all. He immediately rushed over with his men.
He knew very well that this group of lackeys from the jingcha Department were not existences that ordinary people could provoke.
Once he was targeted by them, he might get into trouble if he was not careful.
If it was an ordinary person, his family would have been destroyed.
Out of careful consideration, he also brought the county officers to deal with unexpected situations.
Jing Chasi’s duty was to clean up the demonic priest and cults. For him to suddenly appear at the ten Mile slope, he must have regarded Lou Cheng as an evil demon.
However, in the magistrate’s opinion, things were definitely not like that.
The current evidence was sufficient to prove that Tang Zhen was definitely not a swindler. Even if he was not a true immortal, he definitely had some special abilities.
Jing Chasi had not informed him and had taken action directly, so there was a high chance that he would be at a disadvantage.
At the same time, this also meant that he didn’t trust Yellow Mountain County Magistrate.
Such rude behavior made the Yellow Mountain County Magistrate annoyed, but he was also worried.
He had seen Lou Cheng’s methods and knew that they were quite extraordinary. If Jing Cha Si suffered losses, he might be implicated in the end.
This bunch of rabid dogs, no matter when something happened, they liked to go around and bite.
Feeling anxious, he galloped at full speed and finally arrived at the ten Mile slope.
When they arrived at the scene, they saw a group of civilians retreating far away. More than 20 inspectors dismounted from their horses to rest.
In the middle of the road, there was also an inspector with his back facing the crowd, looking like a Golden Rooster standing alone.
His body didn’t move at all, and it was unknown how long he had persisted. It looked funny, but if one looked carefully, they would find something abnormal.
Something still happened.
the yellow mountain county magistrate sighed in his heart and forced his horse to move forward.
As a local official, the Yellow Mountain County Magistrate had the obligation to cooperate with the investigation Department, but he was not directly under their jurisdiction.
He only felt that it was troublesome, but he was not really afraid.
“Why didn’t you inform me before you came so that I could send people to assist you?”
Yellow Mountain County Magistrate said. There was a hint of complaint in his words, implying that the people of Jing Cha Department did not follow the rules.
“You still dare to say that!”
Hearing this, an inspector immediately rolled his eyes and said in a gloomy tone, ” “Why didn’t you report this in advance when something like this happened in the area under your jurisdiction?
If the matter is serious, as the head of a County, you will have to bear the blame!”
Regardless of whether it was reasonable or not, he had to put the hat on first. This was also a method that Jing Chasi was used to.
Hearing this, Yellow Mountain County Magistrate sneered.
On the way here, he was already prepared to be picked on, but he did not intend to back down.
If they were intimidated by this group of people, their reasoning would become unreasonable, and they might even have to bear all the blame. However, they had become the victims.
“Who says I didn’t report it? it’s just that your rank isn’t high enough and you haven’t received the notice.
I also want to ask you, why didn’t you inform me as usual when you entered Yellow Mountain County to carry out a mission?
If they had done things according to the rules, there would not have been any accidents.
I’d like to know, if there’s a problem that causes accidental losses, who among you will bear the responsibility?”
The group of inspectors sneered, but no one replied to him in case the Yellow Mountain County Magistrate found something to use against him.
They could choose not to inform him, but they couldn’t say that they deliberately didn’t inform him, nor could they say that they didn’t trust the Yellow Mountain County Magistrate.
If that was the case, things would become even more troublesome.
The Yellow Mountain County Magistrate also had a big family behind him, so he might not be afraid of these patrol inspectors.
Among the accompanying personnel, there were Masters from the family who were responsible for investigating the matter between Lou Cheng and Ruixiang trading company.
When the patrol made a threatening gesture and glared at Yellow Mountain County Magistrate, they immediately stood up and showed their martial strength.
The two sides were in a stalemate for a moment, and in the end, they could only take a step back.
There were priorities, and both sides had their own concerns, so there was no need to continue fighting.
No one would benefit from a real fight.
The common goal of both sides was to solve the hidden danger of the loucheng, and they absolutely could not allow it to develop as it wished.
Jing Chasi was limited by his duty. Whether it was the demonic priest or the true immortal, he had to make things clear.
If it was a demonic priest, it must be eradicated. If it was a true immortal, it must be reported. Otherwise, it would be a serious dereliction of duty.
Once the celestial master temple investigated them, they would be severely punished for their dereliction of duty.
The Yellow Mountain County Magistrate was the same. When it came to matters in this area, he had to be careful enough to avoid getting himself into trouble.
The family behind him hesitated again and again. They still had concerns. They wanted to get benefits, but they were afraid of being targeted by the house of the Taoist master.
As for the Ruixiang trading company, they were just pawns in the eyes of the influential families. They could be used to test Tang Zhen’s Foundation.
It was not worth mentioning and could be easily destroyed.
Now that the Jing Investigation Department had intervened, things had become a bit difficult to handle. Yellow Mountain County Magistrate decided to temporarily endure and observe.
He immediately ordered the soldiers to seal off the road to loucheng and patrol the area around loucheng day and night.
This kind of operation was necessary, and it was also to fulfill his duty and cooperate with Jing Cha SI’s actions.
However, just as their fate was decided, they heard gunshots coming from the place where they had stopped.
“Not good, retreat!”
When Yellow Mountain County Magistrate saw this, he turned around and ran without hesitation.
The officers and soldiers in charge of patrolling and guarding were already nervous and unwilling to carry out the blockade mission.
Now that the gunshot was heard, they fled even more.
“A bunch of trash, why are you running!”
An inspector shouted and reprimanded the fleeing soldiers, trying to show the authority of a Shangguan.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a bullet flew over and hit his back.
He was clearly a third rated warrior, and he was even wearing light armor, but he still couldn’t resist the attack of the bullet.
The inspector who was hit by the bullet fell to the ground without a sound.
“Be careful, retreat immediately.”
When the other inspectors saw this, they were shocked. They had finally witnessed the power of firearms.
Originally, he had wanted to stay here and show the might of the jingcha Department to outsiders, but this thought was extinguished with the sound of the gunshot.
They grabbed their injured companions and quickly retreated, afraid that they would be shot to death if they were too slow.
After mounting the warhorse, they quickly ran far away.
After running for more than 2000 meters, they entered a forest and stopped after confirming that it was safe.
He suppressed the anger in his heart and quickly checked on his injured companion. He found that the wound was small and deep, far more difficult to deal with than an arrow wound.
The patrol inspector’s team would always have a Doctor Who knew how to perform first aid on the battlefield.
He picked a suitable location and immediately took out his tools for first aid. It took a lot of effort to remove the bullet.
The injured was still unconscious, and whether he could survive or not was all up to luck.
The Yellow Mountain County Magistrate ordered his men to drive the injured to the county again, but his expression was still gloomy.
He knew very well that the shot just now was a warning to stop the officers from patrolling outside loucheng.
His actions could be considered as a provocation. If Lou Cheng insisted on pursuing the matter, he would probably be involved in it.
He was upset and felt that the situation was getting out of control. He didn’t know what would happen next.
He wanted to get away, but there was no way to escape.
With one inspector injured and another trapped, the situation was becoming more and more tense.
Regardless of Tang Zhen’s identity, just based on the fact that he had injured the patrol inspector, the government had to send troops to capture him.
If he didn’t take action, the Yellow Mountain County Magistrate wouldn’t be able to escape punishment.
this bunch of trash from the jingcha Department doesn’t have the ability to solve the problem. They will only make a mess of things.
He kept cursing in his heart. He still had to do what he had to do. County Magistrate Huang Shan ordered people to continue sealing the road and not allow anyone unrelated to approach loucheng.
As for the Ruixiang trading company, the Yellow Mountain County Magistrate didn’t send people to seal it up. He only sent people to give a warning in private.
The matter was not yet clear, and he did not dare to go too far, in case he became the target of revenge.
The patrol inspector also began to move. He sent people to the nearest military camp and prepared to mobilize more troops to help.
The soldiers of the Yellow Mountain County were only used to maintain local law and order. Their combat power and equipment were not as good as a real Army.
At the same time, on the road from Gu state to Yellow Mountain County, another large group of people sped over.
