Receiving the county magistrate's order, a group of government runners immediately walked toward Wang Chang and Li Yi.
Wang Chang had no hope for the corrupt official, so he said in a deep voice, "Li Brothers, it's not like yesterday. This is the government, the territory of the corrupt official. You must be calm and don't be impulsive. It's a big crime to attack the government …"
Fang stretched his wrists and shook his head, saying, "Brother Wang, you're wrong about one thing. Yesterday it was our territory, and today it's still our territory. You can be impulsive. If anything happens, I'll cover for you …"
Seeing the formation of the man in the court, County Magistrate Zhang's face darkened and he shouted, "Do you want to resist arrest?"
The leader of the bandits, Lin Er, was secretly delighted. They openly resisted arrest and provoked the court. Now, no matter whether they were bandits or not, they couldn't escape the crime no matter what.
When they were all in prison, he would torture them to death!
Fang shook his head, looked at the county magistrate, and said, "You dog official, you can't distinguish right from wrong. You even colluded with the bandits. You're too bold."
County Magistrate Zhang said with a sullen face, "Take them down first. If they dare to resist, execute them on the spot!"
He had heard from Lin Er that these people were all skilled and ordinary people were no match for them. Even if all three teams of bailiffs were added together, they wouldn't be able to outnumber Lin Er's gang of bandits.
But there was a big difference between fighting the bandits and resisting the government. He really didn't believe that these people were really lawless to this extent.
Two government runners walked in the direction of Fang. He clenched his fists, and one of them pulled out a knife from his waist and pointed it at him, saying loudly, "You've heard what our lord said just now. I advise you to give up the fearless resistance and quickly surrender …"
Old Fang pinched the tip of his saber and gave it a gentle tug. The long saber flew out of the constable's hand.
He pinched the tip of the knife and gently bent it. The tip of the knife was broken off just like that.
He broke it a few more times, and the long saber was broken into pieces. He threw it on the ground, making a crisp sound.
"I … I have a stomachache. Hold on for a while, I need to go to the toilet." The constable suddenly clutched his stomach, cold sweat beading on his forehead. He bent over and ran away.
County Magistrate Zhang's face was gloomy and he said angrily, "Trash, trash, what are you waiting for? Let's go together!"
Over a dozen government runners glanced at each other, abandoned Li Yi and Wang Chang, and rushed towards Fang.
It was obvious that this man was the most ferocious opponent. If this terrifying man was dealt with first, the other two would not be a threat.
Wang Chang's expression changed several times. Finally, he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Brother Fang, let me help you!"
"This f * cking world, I'm going to risk it all. Brothers, let's go. At worst, we'll go out to be mountain bandits. It's better than being killed by this dog official!"
Wang Chang still had some leadership and deterrence among those armed escorts. As soon as he said that, the government runners who had been holding those people suddenly felt their hands were loosened. They looked up and saw those people who had been restrained by them just now looking at them fiercely.
The whole county government suddenly fell into chaos.
"Rebel, rebel, you are rebelling!" County Magistrate Zhang's face had already turned pale. He shouted, "Go to the Provincial Governor's Mansion to ask for reinforcements!"
One county government, three groups of government runners, plus some chores staff, there were no more than a hundred people available. Although the number of people was far greater than these rebels, the opponents were all highly skilled in martial arts, especially that man, who was simply a beast in human form. More than half of the government runners were defeated by him.
In the end, many government runners in the county government of Yong County were surrounded in a circle. They held their heads in their hands and squatted in the yard. County Magistrate Zhang's forehead was covered with cold sweat. He said in a trembling voice, "You, you, you, do you know what you are doing?"
Fang moved a chair over. Li Yi sat at the door of the main hall of the county government and said, "As the county magistrate of Yong County, do you know what you are doing by colluding with the government officials and framing innocent people?"
County Magistrate Zhang put on a fierce face. He said, "You are rebelling against the imperial court and the government. I advise you to surrender immediately, or you will be sentenced to death!"
With a knife in his hand, Fang patted his face and said, "You talk too much. Do you know that the more you talk, the faster you will die? Believe it or not, I will cut off your tongue first."
County Magistrate Zhang shrank his body subconsciously. Then he felt that it was a little undignified in public. He raised his head and said, "I am an official appointed by the imperial court, the county magistrate of Yong County …"
Old Fang looked at him and said angrily, "What are you yelling for? What are you yelling for? You're not an official of the imperial court anymore. If you say another word, I'll cut your tongue out first."
As expected, County Magistrate Zhang stopped talking. Compared with his tongue, it was obvious that the latter was more important.
After the fight just now, Wang Chang's forehead was covered with sweat, but the expression on his face was quite excited.
In his life, he had always followed the rules and never dared to go beyond the rules. He had never been as hearty as he was today.
After the excitement, he quickly calmed down.
He looked at Li Yi and immediately said, "Li Brothers, we can't stay here for long. We have to leave immediately. The news that we attacked the government office must have been spread out. If the guards are attracted, we won't be able to leave!"
"Brother Wang, didn't you say that His Highness Gyeong Of Silla would be here soon?" Li Yi smiled and said, "His Highness Gyeong Of Silla is handsome and unrestrained, and his kung fu is unparalleled. He can distinguish right from wrong …"
It was too shameless to praise himself. Li Yi coughed a few times and said, "Anyway, you have to believe that His Highness Gyeong Of Silla will definitely give us justice."
Wang Chang was stunned and immediately said, "But we don't know where His Highness Gyeong Of Silla is now …"
Before he finished his words, the ground under his feet suddenly shook.
At the same time, outside the county office, the people all opened their mouths in surprise when they saw hundreds of armored guards surrounding the county office.
When a group of soldiers ran into the county office in neat steps, Wang Chang's face turned completely pale.
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency, help me!" Seeing the people coming, County Magistrate Zhang directly rolled down from the court. He knelt in front of a man, pointed to the back and said, "These bandits are lawless. They attacked the government office and intended to murder an official of the imperial court. Your Excellency, please take them down!"
Although the provincial governor of Shuzhou had been transferred away by the imperial court, the assistant officer of the provincial governor's mansion was still there. During this period, the affairs of Shuzhou had been handled by the chief of staff. Therefore, when County Magistrate Zhang saw the chief of staff and the commander-in-chief coming in with the guards, he felt as if he had seen his savior.
At this point, the reason why those people attacked the government office was no longer important. What they had committed was treason, and the only way out was death!
Wang Chang's body trembled as he watched the soldiers quickly walk over after hearing the words of the Yong County Magistrate. He almost fell to the ground.
At this time, two people had already come to them.
A scribe on the left quickly tidied up his clothes, bowed and said, "The chief of staff of Shuzhou pays my respect to His Highness Gyeong Of Silla!"
A man in armor on the right simply knelt down on one knee and said loudly, "The chief of staff of Shuzhou pays my respect to His Highness Gyeong Of Silla!"
In the county office, all the soldiers put down their weapons, knelt down on both knees and said in unison, "We pay our respect to His Highness Gyeong Of Silla!"
Wang Chang was stunned and looked back. Where was His Highness Gyeong Of Silla? Gyeong Of Silla?
Behind him, there was no one in the hall.
Then he slowly turned his head and looked at the Li Brothers, whom he had just known for two days and had experienced a lot.
Plop!
Finally, his legs gave way and he knelt down on the ground.
Plop!
There was another heavy sound.
County Magistrate Zhang had already stood up and turned around to see the chief of staff and the commander-in-chief take down those rebels, but he saw such a scene.
The chief of staff bowed, and the commander-in-chief knelt down.
His Highness Gyeong Of Silla.
Looking at the young man opposite him, he only felt that the clear sky above his head suddenly became gloomy.
Dark clouds rolled up, and thunder exploded.
He knelt down again. There was a buzzing in his ears, and his mind was blank.
