Li Zheng walked to the door of the house with an angry look on his face, and his eyes fell directly on Xi Yu and the other two.
When he saw Wang Xiaoer, the anger on his face soared instantly, as if he was about to erupt flames.
Then, his eyes swept towards the other two, and he couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "The other two are those couples, right? They don't look like serious people."
Li Zheng's brows frowned even more, and a sense of dissatisfaction and irritability surged in his heart.
Wang Xiaoer quickly whispered to Xi Yu, "This is Li Zheng." His voice trembled slightly, revealing a hint of timidity.
At this time, Xi Yu smiled and looked at Li Zheng calmly, and said softly: "Master Li Zheng, we want to ask you for some things." His voice was gentle and firm, without any fear.
Li Zheng frowned and said impatiently: "If you have anything, please tell me! I don't have time to procrastinate with you." His eyes revealed his distrust of Xi Yu.
Xi Yu looked directly at Li Zheng with firmness and doubt in his eyes. He asked without hesitation: "Master Li Zheng, what's going on in the bridge repair? Why do some people cut corners? What's going on? Could it be that the money was embezzled by you?"
His voice was not loud, but he had an unquestionable momentum.
Li Zheng's face suddenly became gloomy after hearing Xi Yu's words. He stared at Xi Yu and shouted angrily: "What are you saying? I, Li Zheng, have always been honest and honest, how could I do such a thing!"
His hands clenched into fists, trembling slightly, obviously being angry with Xi Yu's words.
Xi Yu was unmoved. He still looked at Li Zheng with a calm expression and said calmly: "Why does this happen? I have to give you an explanation."
Li Zheng's brows frowned even more. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He said, "I am also investigating this matter. I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."
Then, Li Zheng opened his eyes wide and asked in a stiff tone: "Who are you? What qualifications are you to question this?" His voice was filled with majesty and questioning.
Xi Yu did not retreat at all. He straightened his body, looked at Li Zheng firmly, and replied loudly: "I am the one who upholds justice. I have the right to know the truth of the matter!" His voice was sonorous and powerful, with a sense of firmness and justice.
Li was looking at Xi Yu up and down, with a trace of doubt and disdain flashing in his eyes, "You? Do you have any evidence to prove that I embezzled the money for repairing the bridge?" His tone was full of doubts.
Xi Yu sneered.
"Although I have no direct evidence, the matter of repairing the bridge is related to the interests of each of us, and we have the right to know the whole story!" His eyes revealed his indomitableness and persistence.
Li Zheng's face became even more ugly after hearing Xi Yu's words. He raised his voice and said, "Hmph! Just a few words of yours, I want to slander me at will? Do you think I'm just a waste of my life?"
His chest was fluctuating violently, obviously being angered by Xi Yu's questioning.
Xi Yu said calmly: "Mr. Li Zheng, I am not trying to slander you, I just want to figure out the bridge repair. This bridge is related to the safety of the village, and there is no sloppy at all."
His tone was firm and calm, which made people feel a little more trust in him.
Li was watching Xi Yu, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He didn't expect that Xi Yu would have such a firm attitude.
Wang Xiaoer watched from the side, and secretly felt worried about Xi Yu.
Li Zheng looked at Xi Yu with cold eyes and said viciously: "I advise you not to meddle in other people's business! This is the business in our village, and it's not your turn, an outsider, to intervene!" A trace of threat was revealed in his voice.
Xi Yu straightened his body, looked straight into his eyes without fear, and replied calmly: "Although I am not from this village, I can't watch you do things like this!" His tone was firm and he did not retreat at all.
Li was frowning, with a ferocious expression on his face, and he shouted angrily: "Hmph! Do you dare to fight me? Believe it or not, I will ask someone to arrest you!"
Xi Yu sneered and said, "Do you think I'm afraid of you? I will definitely find out the truth about this matter!" His eyes were full of firmness and determination.
Li Zheng was so angry that he gritted his teeth, pointed at Xi Yu and said, "You guys, wait and see!"
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Wang Xiaoer looked at Xi Yu with an anxious face, and asked with a trembling voice: "What should I do? Li Zheng... He will definitely not give up." His eyes were full of worry and fear.
Xi Yu patted Wang Xiaoer's shoulder and comforted calmly: "Don't be afraid, Wang Xiaoer. We did nothing wrong, don't be afraid of his threat."
Wang Xiaoer nodded, but said with some concern: "But, Li Zheng is very powerful in this village. How can we fight against him?"
Xi Yu smiled slightly and comforted: "Don't worry, we will find evidence to let the truth be revealed."
Tuoba Yu's lips raised slightly, with a sarcastic smile on his face, and looked at Wang Xiaoer and said, "Oh, Wang Xiaoer, what's going on? When you were provoking trouble, you were very brave. Why are you scared now?"
His eyes were filled with disdain and ridicule.
After hearing Tuoba Yu's words, Wang Xiaoer's face turned red, she smiled embarrassedly, scratched her head, and murmured: "I... I wasn't that impulse."
His voice was low, with a little shame.
Tuoba Yu sneered and said, "A momentary impulse? Do you know that this matter is not that simple."
Wang Xiaoer raised his head, looked at Tuoba Yu, a trace of firmness flashed in his eyes, and said, "I know, I will face it with you."
Li was walking into a room with a gloomy face, with an angry light flashing in his eyes.
There were several people playing chess here, sitting around a shabby wooden table, staring at the board with all their hearts.
These people are all confidants, one with a burly figure and a fat face. When playing chess, the thick fingers tightly held the chess piece, as if she was controlling the whole situation.
Another tall and thin man, with a cold face and sharp eyes, was determined and determined every time he fell.
He also has a medium figure who looks quite smart and always has a faint smile on his lips, which makes people elusive about his thoughts.
Seeing this, several people who were playing chess stopped their actions and came forward.
Li Zheng gritted his teeth hard, lowered his voice and said, "Wang Xiaoer dared to offend me without knowing the height of the world! I decided to give him some color, and you will take his mother away now." A hint of coldness and determination were revealed in his voice.
The few people looked at each other, one of them nodded and said, "Okay, Lord Li Zheng, let's do it now."
The other man showed a fierce look on his face and said viciously: "Hmph, this kid really doesn't know how to make him angry with Lord Li Zheng."
After saying that, they hurriedly left and executed Li Zheng's order.
In that dim room, Wang was sitting quietly at the table doing needlework. The sun shone through the window edges on her body, reflecting a faint shadow.
Suddenly, a burst of rapid footsteps came, followed by a "bang", and several people rushed in without warning.
Wang was frightened by the sudden movement and trembled all over. The needle and thread in her hand almost fell. She widened her eyes and looked shocked.
"Who are you? What are you doing?" Wang asked in a trembling voice, his eyes full of horror.
One of them frowned and said impatiently: "Hurry up and follow us!"
When Wang heard this, he was even more panicked.
"Go? Where to go? Why?"
The man snorted coldly and said, "Your son, Wang Xiaoer, offended Li Zheng, and now Lord Li Zheng wants to see you."
Hearing this, Wang's face turned pale instantly, and tears couldn't stop flowing. She muttered to herself while crying: "I said I wouldn't let him meddle in other people's business, but he didn't listen. What should I do..."
Her shoulders were trembling slightly, her face was filled with pain and helplessness, and her eyes revealed deep concern and anxiety.
Those people didn't care about this and went forward to pull Wang.
"Stop being slow, go!"
Wang stood up staggeringly, and was pulled out by them with tears on his face, and kept muttering his son's name...
Wang was taken to a dark room by those people, and then the door was closed with a "bang".
Wang slapped the door in horror and cried, "Let me out! Lord Li Zheng, please, I really know I was wrong. I will definitely ask the waiter to apologize to you. Please let me out!"
Her voice was filled with despair and fear, echoing in this small space.
However, there was no response outside the door, and her begging for mercy was like a rock sinking into the sea, without causing any sensation.
Wang sat on the ground weakly against the door, tears flowing freely, and he still murmured: "Woman, what should I do, mom, don't have anything to do..."
She felt extremely helpless and lonely in this dark room. Time seemed to have become particularly long, and every minute and every second made her suffer.
But no matter how she cried and begged for mercy, she never waited for a glimmer of hope.
After a while, Wang sat there with a dull look on his face, as if he had lost all his energy.
But he kept muttering his son's name from time to time, and his heart was filled with worry and pain.
Xi Yu hurried to a hidden corner.
He untied his belt and started peeing, and breathed a sigh of relief from his mouth.
Afterwards, he suddenly frowned slightly, as if he had remembered something important.
He looked around anxiously, then lowered his voice and shouted, "Where is the secret guard?"
Almost instantly, a dark shadow flashed out of the darkness, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully: "I'm here."
Xi Yu looked serious and worried in his eyes, and said anxiously: "I suddenly thought that there was a narrow mind there and it might attack Wang Xiaoer's mother. You should go to Wang Xiaoer's house quickly now and you must protect his mother's safety!"
The secret guard immediately responded: "Yes, I obey the order!" After that, he was about to fly away.
Xi Yu quickly added: "Don't take it lightly. If there is any mistake, I'll ask you!" His expression was very serious, and he stared at the dark guards tightly.
The secret guard nodded heavily, then flashed and disappeared into the darkness.
Xi Yu stood there, his brows still frowned, and he silently prayed in his heart that everything was safe and sound.
The secret guard sneaked into the Wang family like a ghost, but the house was empty.
His brows were furrowed tightly, and he secretly cried in his heart: "Oh no, Wang is not here, I'm afraid something really happened."
He walked around the house quickly, searching carefully for any possible clues, his face was terrifyingly gloomy.
"Why is this happening? Am I still a step late?" he murmured to himself, his eyes full of annoyance and worry.
He gritted his teeth and secretly blamed himself for not arriving faster.
Then, he flashed and quickly left the Wang family, and decided to go nearby to find out if he could find the traces of Wang or other clues. He silently prayed in his heart that Wang would not encounter any unexpected problems.
His figure was traveling through the darkness, pursuing the Wang family who might have been in danger with anxiety and eagerness.
The secret guard used his light skills and quickly came to Xi Yu like the wind.
His sudden appearance really scared Wang Xiaoer, who was unprepared, and Wang Xiaoer widened his eyes in horror, and his body unconsciously took a few steps back.
Seeing this, Xi Yu quickly said to the secret guard: "Hurry up, go to the corner over there." The secret guard nodded and immediately flashed to the designated corner.
Xi Yu also walked over quickly and asked anxiously: "How is it? Have you found Wang?"
The secret guard shook his head with a serious expression.
"When my subordinates arrived at the Wang family, Wang was no longer in the house, so I'm afraid there would be a lot of danger."
Xi Yu's face suddenly became very ugly. He clenched his fists, pondered for a moment and said, "Let's search carefully, and you must find her whereabouts."
The secret guard responded and disappeared into the darkness again.
Xi Yu stood there, frowning, his heart full of worry and uneasiness.
Xi Yu slowly returned to the original place, Wang Xiaoer hurried forward with a nervous look on his face and asked, "Young Master, what happened to that person just now?" His eyes were full of curiosity and a hint of fear.
Xi Yu smiled slightly and said with a relaxed look: "Oh, that's my subordinate."
When Wang Xiaoer heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Wow, so that's it! He was so far away just now. He must be very powerful!" Wang Xiaoer said excitedly, his hands still gesturing in the air.
Xi Yu looked at his appearance and nodded with a smile.
"Well, he is really good."
Wang Xiaoer became more and more happy and said with a chorus: "Haha, it seems that dealing with Li Zheng's affairs must be a natural result! Now we don't have to worry about the hateful Li Zheng!"
His face was filled with expectation and joy, as if he had seen the scene after Li was punished.
Xi Yu looked at Wang Xiaoer's excited look, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a smile: "Don't be too happy too early, things are not that simple yet."
When Wang Xiaoer heard this, the smile on his face slightly stopped, but soon recovered and said indifferently: "Oh, with your powerful subordinate, are you afraid that that little girl will not be able to do it?"
He said, while gestured with his hands, as if he felt that everything was sure to win.
Xi Yu shook his head, his expression becoming a little serious.
"Although Li Zheng is just a small local official, he has been in this place for many years, and his relationships are complicated and should not be taken lightly."
After hearing this, Wang Xiaoer gradually put away his smile and nodded thoughtfully.
"Well, the young master is right, it's because I'm too simple."
But then he looked at Xi Yu with his eyes shining.
"However, with you and your subordinates here, we will definitely have a great advantage."
Xi Yu looked at Wang Xiaoer's expectant look and smiled.
"Well, we will naturally do our best, but we must act cautiously."
After saying that, Xi Yu fell into deep thought and began to think about the next plan and response.
Wang Xiaoer was on the side, sometimes frowned and sometimes nodded, as if he was planning something in his heart.
At this moment, the second-rate man with a stingy look on his face swayed over.
He smiled maliciously on his face and said to Wang Xiaoer sarcastically: "Wang Xiaoer, your mother is being arrested in the middle!"
When Wang Xiaoer heard this, he immediately widened his eyes, his face full of shock, and his mouth slightly opened.
"What did you say? My mother was caught inside?"
The second-rate boy smiled and nodded, "That's right, you are asking you to look for him under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village!"
Wang Xiaoer's face turned pale in an instant, and his body trembled slightly, "How could this happen..."
His eyes were filled with panic and helplessness.
Xi Yu's face also darkened, and his eyes were sharply staring at the second-rate, as if he wanted to see something from his expression.
The second-rate boy didn't care about Xi Yu's gaze at all, and he still looked at Wang Xiaoer proudly.
"Hmph, go quickly. I don't know what will happen if I go too late."
After saying that, there was a burst of annoying laughter.
Wang Xiaoer gritted his teeth tightly, his fists clattered, his heart was angry and anxious, and he didn't know what to do.
Xi Yu quickly stepped forward, pressed Wang Xiaoer's shoulder with both hands, looked at him firmly, and said, "Waiter, don't worry first."
Wang Xiaoer was full of anxiety and worry, tears flashed in his eyes, and he said anxiously: "Young master, my mother was arrested, how can I not be in a hurry!"
"Don't panic, we will accompany you together and will not let you face it alone."
Tuoba Yu also walked up and said with a serious look on his face: "Yes, Wang Xiaoer, we will help you, don't be afraid."
After hearing what they said, Wang Xiaoer calmed down a little, but his face was still full of nervousness. He bit his lip and said, "Okay, then let's go there quickly."
Xi Yu nodded, and the three of them walked under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village.
Second liuzi looked at Xi Yu and the others going together, and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and said sarcastically: "Oh, I'm still bringing help. I think you are helping you too much!"
He squinted his eyes, looking disdainful.
