Chapter 21: Shock

The old yamen runner was frightened by Bao Zheng's screams, and immediately sweated on his forehead, his feet became weak, and he fell to his knees on the ground.

The yamen runner's face was ashen and he said tremblingly: "The villain really didn't lie, I hope the officials will be careful."

At this time, Zhang Yuxi and Zhang Yao outside the charity village heard Bao Zheng’s shouts and had already walked in, wanting to see what was going on.

Zhang Yao was about to ask Bao Zheng, but Bao Zheng waved his hand to signal An Jing.

Bao Zheng walked around the yamen runner's kneeling and said coldly: "Brother, do you still want to argue? I knew you had a problem since I heard the result of Liu Tongzong's interrogation. However, I think you have been a yamen for so many years and will definitely not intentionally sit in such a bad thing. With your own strength, you can't transport these four corpses away. Tell those accomplices quickly. If you have any difficulties, the magistrate will definitely make the decision for you."

The old yamen runner was trembling at this time, looking around, but finally showed timidity and said in a panic: "I really don't know anything. I fainted at that time, I really don't know anything!"

Bao Zheng's tone was higher at this time and he said sternly: "You really don't cry without seeing the coffin! You said you fainted when you didn't see the murderer. How could you know that the person who hit you used the hilt? You said you were standing in the corner of the wall and being knocked out. As long as the murderer was not a fool, he would definitely hit your right brain, and your scar was on the left. This is completely unreasonable. Another group of yamen runners were in the duty room. If there were no internal ghosts in the duty room, how could they be dizzy without knowing it. I observed the situation in the lock room and found that the door of the lock room had no signs of damage. Even if there was a bad lock, it was unreasonable. Obviously, there were internal ghosts who opened it with the key. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the corpse stolen man to find the key in the duty room. In total, there were so many doubts, could you still argue?"

The old yamen runner was speechless at this time, and his forehead was full of sweat as big as beans, rolled out. He fell to the ground, crawled towards Zhang Yao, and said to Zhang Yao: "Master General! I've asked! I was coerced! You must open your mouth. I have old men and young men in my family, so I can't go to prison!"

Zhang Yao was about to say something, but the yamen runner who was crawling on the ground and begging suddenly jumped up, a cold star shining in his sleeves, and a dagger appeared in his hand. The yamen runner was agile at this time, and in a blink of an eye it had already flashed behind Zhang Yao's back, and the dagger in his hand was crossed to the vital point of Zhang Yao's neck.

When several officers and soldiers in the charity village saw the yamen runner suddenly attacked, they immediately became in chaos. Liu Tongzhe said loudly: "Lin Laosan, what do you want to do? Do you don't want to live anymore? Take this person for me!"

The old yamen runner Lin Laosan sneered and roared, "It's better to fight if you can fight, but if you don't fight, you'd better fight. If my life can be exchanged for the life of the magistrate, it's not in vain to go on a move in the world. If you have the guts, you can do it! Come and catch me!"

Bao Zheng was shocked by Lin Laosan's sudden actions, but when he heard Lin Laosan's roar at this moment, he calmed down instantly and shouted: "All officers and soldiers are not allowed to act rashly, otherwise they will be punished as the murder of the chief."

Although Bao Zheng was not the leader, his words played a very deterrent role, which made the originally nervous officers and soldiers calm down.

Bao Zheng was sweating on his forehead at this time. As long as he couldn't handle it well, his father-in-law would die in front of him. If this tragedy really happened, then Yu Xi might never forgive him in his life!

Bao Zheng and others calmed down, and although their tone was nervous, they said calmly: "Lin Lao San, I have heard what you said just now. You were coerced, right? You have let the magistrate go, and we will definitely protect you."

After hearing Bao Zheng's words, Lin Laosan suddenly changed into a completely different tone and laughed loudly. His voice was like a different person. Lin Laosan's laughter made everyone feel a little creepy.

Lin Laosan's words were so powerful at this time, and he said coldly: "Bao Zheng! Do you still naively think I was coerced? Hahaha! The real Lin Laosan has already gone to see King Yama. Bao Zheng, you have ruined our good things more than once, and you will definitely not be able to live long!

Bao Zheng already knew that Lin Laosan in front of him was faked by someone else. After knowing this, Bao Zheng calmed down a lot. Bao Zheng smiled and said, "I don't know what you call him? What is it related to the person who assassinated the prince? Do you think you can escape today? If you know the truth, please release Zhang Zhizhou."

Lin Laosan sneered and replied, "Bao Zheng, don't pretend to be calm. Now all the chips are in my hands. You go and prepare horses for me. I will take this dog official with you. You are not allowed to follow him, otherwise I will kill him. As long as I walk a hundred miles away, if I am happy, I will release this dog official. But Bao Zheng, you are very smart. You guessed the assassination of the prince so quickly. But if you think Hu Yanqing, who was injured by your arrow, is in the same group of fools as me, then you are so mentally retarded. Hahaha!"

While sneering, Lin Laosan dragged Zhang Yao out. The dagger in his hand gently slashed Zhang Yao's neck, and a trace of blood had flowed out of the small wound.

Zhang Yuxi was already in a mess at this time, with tears flashing on her face. She stepped forward and said to Bao Zheng: "Honey, think of a way to save my father! Otherwise, he would really kill my father. Why not find a flatterer and let him go!"

Bao Zheng showed his face and said resolutely: "Yu Xi, do you think that if we let him escape, he will still save his father's life?"

Lin Laosan dragged Zhang Yao at this time and was about to reach the door of the Yizhuang Village. He leaned against a lush locust tree several feet tall at the door, and roared: "Bao Zheng! If you don't go and prepare for flattery, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless, just wait and regret it!"

Bao Zheng's palms were covered in sweat at this time. Liu Tongzong was there several times and wanted to speak, but when he saw Bao Zheng's expression, he had to shut up. Just as Bao Zheng was having a complex ideological struggle in his mind, a scene that shocked everyone suddenly appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

In the dense big locust tree, a graceful figure flashed, quietly lifting his sword, heading to the ground, diving towards Lin Laosan and Zhang Yao.

The mysterious woman's move was almost the same as suicide. She fell to the ground from a few feet high. As long as she fell to the ground, she would definitely die. Lin Laosan obviously had not discovered the mysterious woman on her head. Before everyone could scream, the woman's long sword had passed through the gap between Zhang Yao's neck and Lin Laosan's arms. With a soft shout, the long sword shook. Lin Laosan's dagger that was originally mounted on Zhang Yao's neck was actually shocked by the long sword. The dagger cut through the air and flashed a dazzling arc.

The woman's whereabouts remained unabated. The sword pointed to the ground, and a sharp metal collided with the ground. The sword bent sharply and was about to be broken. The woman's whereabouts had been slowed down. The woman turned over, and the sword in her hand was cleverly bounced due to its bent toughness. The long sword tip passed directly through Zhang Yao's armpit. The sword had a clever arc into Lin Laosan's chest.

The woman's attack, which was as bright as water, only happened in the flash. Before everyone could react, even Lin Laosan had time to scream, his chest had been pierced.

The woman grabbed Zhang Yao's official robe and shook it. Zhang Yao staggered and rushed to Bao Zheng. Bao Zheng reacted with a quick response and reached out to support him.
