The younger brother's legs were weak and he pointed tremblingly at the scary scene outside, "Brother, brother, there is a ghost outside!"
"It doesn't matter whether it's a ghost or not, who have I ever been afraid of~ ah~ a ghost!"
"Brother, brother, wake up~"
Before anyone could see clearly, the leader was completely frightened and fainted.
The refugees who had gathered to make trouble also fled in all directions. They were all so frightened that they crawled away. No one noticed that Magistrate Zhao and his party had run away. One or two of them were eager to find a hole in the ground to hide themselves.
.
When Yun Miaomiao saw that it was almost done, she put away the speaker, then went back to change all her clothes and put them in the mall for secondary sale.
Fortunately, the mall has a secondary sales function, and used items can be put back for sale, which can also reduce your losses.
As soon as she packed her things, Qingyang came back with Magistrate Zhao.
County Magistrate Zhao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Yun Miaomiao, "Xiaoyun, thanks to you this time, otherwise I would really die here."
"We'll talk about these later, let's go back first."
"How do we get back?"
Although those people were scared away, there were still many people at the city gate. It was still too risky for them to appear like this.
"If we don't go back, as long as the gates of Ruizhou City are not opened, nothing will happen in the city." Yun Miaomiao had already made a plan and had no intention of returning to the city after saving anyone.
"What, not going back?" County Magistrate Zhao looked at Yun Miaomiao in astonishment, then thought for a moment, and agreed, "That's okay. Once the city gate opens after tomorrow, it won't be too late to go back."
Yun Miaomiao curled her lips, "Does Mr. Zhao also think that this riot is a simple riot?"
Magistrate Zhao frowned, "Although I have some thoughts, I also know that this riot was obviously intentional behind the scenes, but I don't know who is behind it for the time being. Before I was besieged, I hid my private seal in that
The direction was just to have a bargaining chip, and later they also looked for it, but I don’t know if they found it.”
It turns out those two people were looking for private seals.
"Found it." Qingyang replied, "The county magistrate should know that there are a large number of people blocking the city gate, and we have no chance to get out of the city gate. In order to save you, Miss Yun came from the smelly and dirty underground river.
We swam out, and we met those two people as soon as we came out, and we happened to see them find something, but we didn’t know what they were looking for. Now that the county magistrate said this, we probably know what they found.
Your private seal."
"What?" County Magistrate Zhao looked at Yun Miaomiao in surprise, "Xiaoyun, how can I be embarrassed by you? I am an official of the imperial court, much older than you, and I asked you, a little girl, to save me. What's going on in my heart?
Go ahead and feel sorry for yourself."
Yun Miaomiao waved her hand, "This is nothing. Magistrate Zhao doesn't need to take it to heart."
She glanced at the still noisy crowd outside, "The most important thing now is to find out the mastermind behind it. Magistrate Zhao, I have an idea. I don't know if it will work. Can you listen to it?"
"Just say it, without you I wouldn't have the freedom I have now." Magistrate Zhao no longer knew what words to use to explain his mood at the moment, it was complicated and weak.
"You have run away before they react. When they react, they will definitely find someone. Let's leave here first. Since we are not going back to the city, we must find a place to avoid. The most dangerous place is the safest.
We will just disguise ourselves and go to the city gate to block the door together. Of course, we still need to make some preparations before going."
Yun Miaomiao took out a few sets of torn and old clothes from the bag, "We put on these clothes and threw the original clothes into the underground river. If they find any clues, they will chase down the underground river.
This way, it can also buy us time."
As expected, she was the woman who helped him get through the difficult times. Magistrate Zhao did not hide his admiration at all.
"Just do as you say."
Qingyang glanced at Yun Miaomiao's baggage. There were quite a few clothes. How did Miss Yun fit them in?
Yun Miaomiao paused while holding the clothes, and then began to distribute the clothes to others as if nothing had happened. She also took the clothes and put them on herself, and then rolled around in the mud. She looked like those who had been wandering for several months.
People are almost filthy.
County Magistrate Zhao saw that she was so informal, not afraid of getting dirty at all, and didn't follow her example, so he rolled around on the ground.
After being prepared, I took my original clothes and headed to the exit of the underground river. There were many traces left on both sides of the path.
When they turned back, the people who could not see the end were now scattered and avoiding each other. Yun Miaomiao and Qingyang looked at each other and let him go in front. They huddled up one by one and trembled towards
Walk to the city gate.
There was originally a piece of land at the city gate that could provide shelter from wind and rain. In addition to Yun Miaomiao, many people also came here to compete for space.
Yun Miaomiao and his party found a place under the city wall, curled up one by one and lay down on the ground. Qingyang and Attendant Zhao began to take turns watching. Yun Miaomiao and Magistrate Zhao had been tossing all night, not caring about the floor.
It was so hard that I fell asleep directly.
When the two woke up, the sun was already high outside, and the scorching sun hurt her eyes.
"You don't know, last night there was a ghost crying and howling. It was the first time I saw a ghost in so many years."
"I also saw it clearly. The one with the green face and fangs is really scary."
"They all say that Magistrate Zhao is a good official. Seeing that shaggy beard bullying others, they can't even stand it. They are here to deal with him."
"I was so frightened that I fainted when I saw Pang Huzi last night. Liu Ergou barked for a long time but didn't respond. He only woke up this morning."
"You deserve it. We just wanted a bite to eat. Pang Beard beat up Magistrate Zhao and tied him up. God couldn't stand it, so he sent a ghost grandpa to settle the score with him."
Yun Miaomiao, "......"
Okay, why does this make you a ghost grandpa?
Outrageous, this is too outrageous.
After hearing this piece of gossip, Yun Miaomiao became more energetic, so she asked Qingyang and Attendant Zhao to go to bed, while she and Magistrate Zhao kept an eye on them.
After Pang Huzi woke up, he found that Magistrate Zhao was missing and scolded Liu Ergou.
"What use do I need from you? I don't even know when someone will run away."
Liu Ergou lowered his head dejectedly, "I'll take someone to look for him right now. They've already inquired. The city gate is not open at all, which means that the person surnamed Zhao has not returned at all. I guess he is looking for
We found a place to hide, today is the last day of the exam, brother, what should we do now?"
It was already past noon, and there was only half a day left. When the sun set, the bell in the examination room should ring to end the exam.
Pang Beard slapped the table angrily, "Look, find me someone quickly. There is a swamp where we went to find the private seal yesterday. Most likely they were hiding there. Go and bring me the person back quickly."
"
Liu Ergou didn't dare to delay and hurriedly led his people out to arrest them.
Pang Beard's face turned red with anger, "Son of a bitch, if I catch you, I have to skin you."
If it weren't for that ghost last night, he wouldn't be so unlucky. He wouldn't be so unlucky if he didn't do a good job for the nobleman, and he would be scolded if he didn't say it. The key is that the money he got is about to go away.
Pang Beard glanced at the knife in his hand. He couldn't sit still and wait for death. "You guys, bring the guys with you. I don't believe it at our city gate. We can't even open a city gate."
"Brother, this city gate is made of fine wood. It's several feet thick. We can't cut it with our swords."
"Yes, if big brother can chop, we don't need to arrest Zhao."
The bearded man bared his teeth, "Bah, are you just going to be content with me just watching the money I got fly away?"
Several of his subordinates lowered their heads. How could they be willing to do so?
"Brother, we found it, we found it." A shout came from outside. Pang Huzi dropped the knife in his hand and walked out quickly, "Have you found the person named Zhao?"
The younger brother gasped, "Look, find, find their traces, they are heading towards the swamp. Brother Ergou has led people to secure the land, so they can't escape."
Finally, the person was found, and Pang Beard's gloomy face improved a lot, "You guys should also go help and catch the person as soon as possible."
