When Zhan Ning 'er arrived at the county office, there was already a sea of people outside. It was even more lively than the scene at the market. Such a scene naturally made Zhan Ning 'er feel even more ashamed and angry. She naturally blamed Ye Xiaotian for this, so she hated Ye Xiaotian even more.
Based on Zhan Ning 'er's violent character, she would definitely not run away quietly because of the crowd and come back to find trouble with Ye Xiaotian another day. She was very straightforward. She directly ordered her attendants, "Go and knock on the door. Ask the county office to hand over that bastard immediately. Otherwise, I will fight my way in!"
Before Zhan Ning 'er could finish her words, the closed door of the county office suddenly opened. Ye Xiaotian walked out bare-chested.
When Zhan Ning 'er saw Ye Xiaotian, she was especially angry when she saw her enemy. She clenched the hilt of her knife and rushed towards Ye Xiaotian. However, Ye Xiaotian was faster than her. As soon as he saw her, he immediately rushed towards her. When he was about three feet away from her, he suddenly stopped and shouted, "I remember!"
This sentence, which was out of the blue, successfully aroused Zhan Ning 'er's curiosity. Zhan Ning' er stopped abruptly and asked, "What did you remember?"
Ye Xiaotian pointed at her nose and said in an imposing manner, "You, broke your promise!"
Zhan Ning 'er was stunned and said in surprise, "Me?"
Ye Xiaotian nodded hard and said, "Yes! You used your feet. Am I wrong? "
Zhan Ning 'er, "Uh …"
Ye Xiaotian emphasized, "And you did it not only once, but three times!"
Zhan Ning 'er, "This …"
Ye Xiaotian angrily accused, "You swore that you would never touch me, but you broke your promise. What did I do? I only retaliated once when you trampled on my dignity again and again, and what was the result? I can't believe you chased me all the way to the county government office! "
Ye Xiaotian said loudly, "I am also an official. If you treat me like this, what will you do to ordinary people?"
Zhan Ning 'er, "I …"
Ye Xiaotian said, "I know. Perhaps you're more refined and courteous to the common folk. Because you don't want others to say that you bully the weak. But you treat me like this, does it mean that you are not afraid of power? Look carefully, is there anyone in the county office who can bully people? "
Zhan Ning 'er, "Well …"
Ye Xiaotian suddenly waved his hand, "That! In the end, it depends on what you do, not what you say. You are a member of the Zhan family in Shuixi. If you treat an official like this, what will others think? What will they think of the Zhan family? "
Zhan Ning 'er, "Then …"
Ye Xiaotian, "A good man doesn't fight with a woman! This time, I forgive you. Didn't you make an oath to your god? Fortunately, the oath didn't say whether or not you should take the oath immediately. I am a very generous person. I will allow your Gu God to take the oath after a million years. But only this time, understand? "
Zhan Ning 'er, "You …"
Ye Xiaotian, "On the Wong Tai Sin Ridge, the person I told you about lives in Qiuliu Alley. You know who I am talking about. After entering Qiuliu Alley, it is the third house. Okay, that's it. I don't want to talk to you anymore. You can go now! "
Ye Xiaotian turned around and left. Just like when he came out, he rushed into the yamen and shouted, "Close the door!"
The door of the county government was closed with a bang. Miss Zhan, who came aggressively to denounce Chu Mochen, didn't have a chance to speak from beginning to end.
"It seems that what he said is very reasonable … Wait, why should I reason with him? Well … I did make an oath, but my oath seems to be about his repeated deceiving me before. It doesn't include the things that he offended me later. Can I do it or not? "
Poor Miss Zhan was confused by Ye Xiaotian's continuous questioning. She thought for a long time but still couldn't figure out the reason.
In the crowd, a man in a white robe stuck his head out and saw Ye Xiaotian angrily closing the door. Zhan Ning 'er frowned and didn't say anything. This man thought for a while and finally plucked up the courage to walk over. He coughed and smiled at Zhan Ning' er, "Cousin …"
It turned out that this man was Zhan Ning 'er's cousin, Annam Tien of the "Chieftain" An family. Zhan Ning 'er glared at him and turned to leave without saying a word. Annam Tien hurriedly chased after her and asked, "Cousin, where are you going?"
Zhan Ning 'er said coldly, "Qiuliu Alley!"
…
Ye Xiaotian leaned against the crack of the door, held his breath, and carefully stared at the movement outside the door. Seeing that his words actually scared the tigress away, he felt lucky. He patted his chest and heaved a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, Ye Xiaotian felt that there seemed to be someone beside him. He hurriedly turned around and saw the county magistrate, Hua Qingfeng, standing beside him. He was still patting his chest with a face full of joy.
Ye Xiaotian's face immediately darkened, and he said unhappily, "County magistrate, I was lucky to escape this obstacle, but I don't know how many problems are waiting for me next. I have been a Warden for some time, and there is no news of that assassin so far. How long do I have to be a fake Warden? "
Hua Qingfeng said in his heart, "You are a fake Warden. Although there are endless troubles, at least you can live. Are you tired of living too long to quit in such a hurry? " But he said perfunctorily, "Okay, okay, don't be anxious. Wait for another month or half a month, then I will allow you to leave."
Ye Xiaotian's eyes brightened, and he said, "You are a father and mother of the county, are you serious?"
Hua Qingfeng said, "I am not lying."
Ye Xiaotian said, "I am just an ordinary citizen. The affairs of the government originally have nothing to do with me. I have already done my best by agreeing to be a fake Warden. But you still want to assign a lot of things to me. In the end, when something happens, you don't take responsibility for it. What do you say about this?"
Hua Qingfeng looked ashamed, and he said helplessly, "Since you have taken the position of Warden, you can't let others find out that you are a fake, right? Okay, okay, in a while I will talk to County Magistrate Meng. As for the affairs of the county, if you can stay out of it, don't. It's almost time to collect the autumn taxes. You can be in charge of collecting the taxes in the countryside. This way you can avoid a lot of trouble. "
Ye Xiaotian's anger turned into joy, and he said, "That's more like it. Then … you said it, at most a month. After a month, whether the assassin comes or not, I must leave."
Hua Qingfeng said in his heart, "You want to die? Do you think I like to stop you?" He said perfunctorily, "Of course, of course!"
…
Zhan Ning 'er rushed to the entrance of the government office. Ye Xiaotian jumped out and retorted with harsh words. Zhan Ning' er retreated without a fight. The bystanders did not hear clearly what Ye Xiaotian said to Zhan Ning 'er about Xu Boyi's whereabouts. They thought that the commotion was over and left regretfully. But no one continued to follow Zhan Ning' er.
Zhan Ning 'er frowned and walked forward while thinking about something. Suddenly she raised her voice and called out, "Cousin!"
Annam Tien hurriedly went in front of her and said, "Cousin!"
Zhan Ning 'er said, "I have a problem. I can't think of an answer right now. Can you help me to think about it?"
Annam Tien was flattered and quickly said, "Okay, okay, cousin, please tell me!"
Zhan Ning 'er coughed twice and said, "It's like this …" Zhan Ning' er told An Nantian about the bet she made with Ye Xiaotian from beginning to end. She asked An Nantian very seriously, "Do you think that if I make a move on him now, would it be considered a violation of the oath?"
No wonder Zhan Ning 'er was so cautious. She was not afraid of anything but the Poison God. If she fought with Ye Xiaotian again, it would be a violation of the oath. She really did not dare to do that. She was afraid that if she angered the Poison God, she would be in trouble.
When An Nantian heard what she said, he couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. Actually, an oath was like a contract. It was best to state the terms clearly and not be ambiguous. Otherwise, it would really be a problem to interpret it. Annam Tien also believed in the Poison God, so he did not dare to give her any ideas.
Zhan Ning 'er waited for a long time, but Annam Tien did not answer. She stared at him and said, "What do you think?"
Annam Tien said embarrassedly, "It doesn't matter what I think. What matters is what the Poison God thinks."
Zhan Ning 'er said angrily, "If I know what the Poison God thinks, do I need to ask you?"
Annam Tien felt wronged and said, "You don't know what the Poison God thinks. Do you think I know?"
When Zhan Ning 'er just stared at him, Annam Tien said, "How about this? When you go to Tongren, go to the mountain and visit the Venerable. He is the servant of the Poison God and will definitely answer your question."
Zhan Ning 'er mumbled, "Won't we have to wait for a long time? What's more, after I go to Tongren and ask the Venerable, I will come back after I get the answer. "
Annam Tien rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "How about this? If it is not convenient for you to do it yourself, let Jiugao and Jiudang teach him a lesson for you."
Jiu Gao and Jiu Dang that An Nantian mentioned were Zhan Ning'er's two personal attendants. Don't be fooled by their appearances. In fact, their martial arts skills were even better than Zhan Ning'er's. Otherwise, why would she ask them to protect the young miss?
Zhan Ning 'er rolled her eyes at her cousin and said, "Nonsense. Do you think I have never thought of this idea? If we do it by others, it is no different from what the Venerable said. If I don't do it myself and let them do it for me, what's the difference between that and me doing it myself? "
Annam Tien laughed dryly and said, "Well, I was just giving a suggestion. Ai, it would have been better if you had only said not to do it. But you just said not to do it. This means that your hands and feet are tied. If you can't do it, do you think you can use your mouth and bite him to death? "
After Annam Tien finished speaking, he also felt that it was funny and couldn't help but laugh. But unexpectedly, Zhan Ning 'er's eyes lit up and she blurted out, "That's right! Why didn't I think of it! I can't do it with my hands and feet, but I can use my mouth. Haha, good idea! Cousin, it is rare for you to come up with a good idea. "
Annam Tien was stunned and said with a stutter, "You can't be … you really want to use your mouth?"
In an instant, many images of using one's mouth that were not suitable for children flashed through Annam Tien's mind. But he immediately rejected these absurd ideas. How could it be possible? Looking at how his cousin hated that brat to the bone, it was clear that she really wanted to teach him a lesson. How could he teach him a lesson with his mouth? Comfortable to death?
Annam Tien felt a chill in his heart and didn't want to continue thinking about it. He had the intention to ask his cousin, but looking at her mysterious and proud smile, it was obvious that she wouldn't say it to him. So he tactfully didn't ask.
Suddenly, Zhan Ning 'er's body stopped and her smile also froze. Gradually, the corner of her mouth slowly pursed up. Although there was still a smile on her face, the smile was getting colder and colder. Annam Tien followed Zhan Ning 'er's gaze and looked forward. He saw a small courtyard in the middle of the alley. It looked very ordinary.
