"If you, as the governor of Rizhao County, are not responsible for the outbreak of the plague, then who is responsible for it?"
Jiang Wang really wanted to put his head on the old man's neck and ask him that.
But he could only endure it.
There was no other reason other than that he was not powerful enough!
The governor of Rizhao County was still the head of a county. Regardless of power or status, he was not someone Jiang Wang could touch.
He could only take advantage of the fact that the old man had not turned on him and said, "Based on the White Bone Sect's style of doing things, the plague is probably just the beginning. If you do not take precautions, the consequences will be unimaginable! The whole county will be in danger! "
"Tracing back the history of the White Bone Sect, they first appeared in Zhuang Country. I grew up in Zhuang Country, so I know them well! "
The governor frowned. "You came to Yang Country as the representative of Junggenjia, but you are from Zhuang Country?"
Jiang Wang was stunned. He did not understand the man's point. "I am from Zhuang Country. That is why I know how scary the White Bone Sect is. They … "
However, the Rizhao Prefectural Governor stood up and left without saying a word.
When the old man walked out of the hall without even looking back, Jiang Wang was shocked to find out that he was … discriminated against!
Just because he came from a small and remote country, the noble County Chief of the Yang Country didn't even bother to speak to him.
Chung Geng Sheng, who was from one of the top families in Qi, did not discriminate against him because he was from Zhuang Country. Xu Xiangqian, who was from one of the top four academies, did not discriminate against him because he was from Zhuang Country.
He really wanted to ask, "You are from a country that does not even have your own political views. What right do you have to discriminate against me?"
Jiang Wang opened his meridians at the age of seventeen. In just one year, he had crossed the Traveling Meridians and Qi Circulation. At the age of eighteen, he was already in the Reaching Heaven State and could open the gates of heaven and earth at any time.
He had reserved the position of the Inner House of Remarkable Powers and was qualified to fight for the title of the strongest Reaching Heaven State. He had defeated Jiang Wuyong and Chung Geng Sheng when he was in the Reaching Heaven State …
How could someone like him be discriminated against because of his country of origin?
It would be fine if the governor of Rizhao County was an ordinary old man. But he was the head of a county. How arrogant was he? How shallow was his vision?
Even in a vassal state of Qi, they were even more arrogant than the people of Qi.
Jiang Wang left angrily without waiting for the people of the commandery manor to drive him away.
There were only three prefectures in the entire Yang Country, and the Rizhao Prefectural Governor was in charge of one of them.
However, such a person was so shallow and greedy that it left Jiang Wang speechless. With a County Governor like this, it was no wonder the Xi family was so ambitious.
Even a pig wouldn't be willing to be under such an old man!
He originally wanted to ignore this matter and quietly watch how the White Bone Path would stir up chaos in the world. When the time came, he wanted to see how this old man would deal with it.
However, the White Bone Path was an evil cult that he was determined to eliminate. If he allowed it to grow, it would only increase the difficulty for him in the future.
A moment of anger was not advisable.
Moreover, this short-sighted old man might deserve to die, but the ones who would be buried with him were countless ordinary people. What crimes did the common people commit?
Looking back, it seemed that he would not be able to get any support from Rizhao Prefecture.
In the entire Yang Country, Rizhao Prefecture had the most serious epidemic. In Rizhao Prefecture, other than Jia City, Yue Prefecture had the most serious epidemic.
The source of the plague that broke out in Yue City was also Jia City.
The person who first contracted the plague was surnamed Li. He opened a pie shop in Jia City. He returned to Yue Prefecture and brought the plague back. After that, he left Yang Country and brought the plague to Rong Country.
This situation had already been investigated and announced by Jing Ye of Rong's Leading Light City. Jiang Wang was also aware of it.
Old Li was also one of Hu Shaomeng's spies in Qingyang Town. After Hu Shaomeng and Old Li died, no one knew about this anymore. Naturally, no one would have thought that Old Li was running all over the world to attract Jiang Wang's attention.
Even Jiang Wang himself did not think of this. However, it did not stop him from making Yue Prefecture his next destination.
He was very sure that there were still people from the White Bone Path active in Yang Country.
That person's location should be where the epidemic was the most serious.
Therefore, he would go wherever the epidemic was the most serious.
…
…
Wu Yinquan was a prison head in Yue Prefecture. He was in charge of four prison guards.
His job was actually very easy.
If there was any danger, the constables and city guards would take care of it.
If there was danger that they could not handle, they would not be able to enter the prison.
Moreover, there weren't any outstanding heroes in the entire Qi Kingdom's sphere of influence. Yang Country was also included.
Therefore, things like breaking out of prison were as far away as legends.
The power of the government was absolute. There were no forces that could compete with them. If you accidentally got into trouble, you had no other choice but to admit defeat.
Of course, there was a lot of money in prison.
Although there were no truly extravagant people trapped in the prison cell, there was no one who could truly hide. In a harsh place like prison, there were still many people who were willing to give up so that they could suffer less.
However, there were always exceptions. There were also those who were stubborn and had stubborn bones.
Like the old man who had just entered prison.
He looked like a rich scholar.
His crime was not very clear. It was a mess of things like creating rumors and causing trouble. Perhaps his family had used some money, but the city guards who had brought him in arranged a single room for him.
Of course, there were rules in prison. Whether this arrangement could be implemented or not depended on whether these local tyrants agreed or not.
The city guards had eaten filial piety. Shouldn't the prison masters in the prison also eat filial piety?
Based on Wu Yinquan's experience, these people were stubborn because they had not really suffered.
After a few hints and hints, Wu Yinquan instructed and threw him into the large prison cell where the serious criminals were locked up.
There was a name for this in prison. It was called the "Earth Room". It was a place where the prisoners in prison would turn pale when they heard it.
The fiercest group of prisoners in the entire prison gathered here. Even a tiger would be trained to be a dog if it went in.
As for the "Heaven Room" where the death row prisoners were locked up, Wu Yinquan still did not dare to send him in.
This was because people often died there, and this rich scholar was registered with the city guards. If he had to be interrogated in the future, it would be very troublesome if he died.
He drank too much the night before and slept until noon the next day.
Wu Yinquan slapped his forehead and thought to himself, "Oh no." It was not that he was afraid of being late or anything. Who would care about that in prison? He was also a prison head. It was not a problem for him to be late and leave early.
What he was worried about was that if he was late, the rich scholar would not be able to withstand the torture and die in the "Earth Room".
Not to mention that the silver he had high hopes for was gone, if the city guards came back, it would be terrible enough.
Wu Yinquan almost jogged all the way and rushed to the prison. He went straight to the "Earth Room".
Contrary to his expectations, the prison cell was peaceful.
The ferocious criminals were all sitting or lying down, staring blankly, or catching lice.
Occasionally, there were people who chatted, but they all lowered their voices, as if they were afraid of disturbing someone.
Wu Yinquan poked his head in and looked around.
The person sleeping on the second bed on the left — that was the only bed in this large prison cell that was facing the vent and was considered cool — who else could it be but the rich scholar?
