At this moment, the rest of the government officials finally heard the sound and came, but as the window was broken, Ma Xiaoquan knew that the assassin had escaped.
"Sir..." The head of the government office held up his trousers and rushed in disheveled. When he saw Ma Xiaoquan protecting Fangfang, his heart rose in his throat from those words.
Ma Xiaoquan turned his head, glanced at the head of the yamen, and snorted coldly: "What have you been doing? You, the head of the yamen, don't guard my other courtyard well, have you gone to visit the brothels?"
The head of the government office smiled bitterly and complained: "Sir, where did the brothel come from in this small county? I am in the same boat as my family..."
Ma Xiaoquan was amused by the tone of the yamen chief. He raised his leg and kicked the chief, and scolded him with a smile: "You bitch, are you so impatient? Aren't you afraid of weak legs?"
The head of the government office smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, my body and bones are in good shape, um, my waist is also in great shape~"
"Go, go, go~" Ma Xiaoquan put away his smile and said seriously, "An assassin has sneaked into the government office, do you know?"
"Ah?" The head of the government office looked confused, "I, I don't know~"
Ma Xiaoquan helplessly held his forehead and said: "Forget it, it's too late for you to know. Several of your brothers were killed. You see how to deal with it. Just do it~ Well..." Ma Xiaoquan took out his hand.
He handed out two 100-tael silver notes and threw them to the head of the government office, "Give your dead brother a glorious burial, and make a good home at home. Remember, don't use this money, otherwise, I will take your life~"
The head of the government office took the banknote and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I will do it, I will do it~ It's just my lord, several people died, and the county magistrate came back to ask, what can I say about this kid? If the county magistrate blames us, we will
What should I do?”
Ma Xiaoquan said: "You don't have to worry about this, I will tell him."
"Yes~~Thank you so much, Mr. Deacon."
.......
In a private house somewhere.
A woman dressed in men's clothing took off her wrist guard and let out a long breath.
Next to her, there was a beautiful woman sitting. When the woman saw the woman exhale, she said lightly: "Isn't it done?"
The woman hummed softly: "It's not easy to handle. The sharp hand knife was scratched on Ma Xiaoquan's neck, but it couldn't cut into his flesh at all. I'm afraid... what Pang Yuehai said about Ma Xiaoquan's invulnerability is true.
That’s it…”
"Well, what about that guy?"
"He was killed by me. He was forced to eat shit by Ma Xiaoquan. He couldn't bear it and wanted to tell us about our existence... So I kept doing nothing and killed him. Hey, if he hadn't temporarily
If you want to rebel, at least I can kill Ma Xiaoquan’s women and children.”
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, this thing is not guaranteed to succeed. Besides, Li Zongyu only gave us half of the money. In view of his past of defaulting on debts, I think we should forget about it today."
The woman was stunned and asked: "Master, is this really the case? This is not your way of doing things. Aren't you worried that Master Yao Xian will take away our credit?"
"Haha... If that bitch Yao Xian can snatch it, why should she ask the leader for permission to let our Shuixiu co-rudder get on first? She actually has no idea about that person than I do, and the leader seems to have no idea about that person.
Ma Xiaoquan is very interested. I have been serving Ling for the past few years. I should be able to guess what Ling means. Yao Xian was earlier than me, so she must understand better than me..."
"Then...the helmsman, Ma Xiaoquan, can't we kill him?"
"Hmph, kill, of course I have to kill, but not at this moment, and not here anymore. Let's talk about it later when we find a chance. By the way, let the news go out and say that our Shuixiu branch has given up on this mission, hum..."
"Yes~ By the way, helmsman, what should I do about Pang Yuehai? He has been hiding far away these past two days..."
"Pang Yuehai? Humph, he's just a thief. I'll leave him to you. Aren't you good at making men die in a comfortable situation?"
"Yeah, I got it, helmsman!"
...
After a night of hard work, Ma Xiaoquan didn't sleep much. The smell in the house was very bad, and Fangfang didn't sleep much either.
On the contrary, little Zhifeng, who was still a child after all, grabbed the front of his mother's clothes, and the little guy fell asleep.
The sky finally turned pale. Ma Xiaoquan took a breath and looked at Fangfang who was already squinting beside him. He smiled bitterly, picked up a coat and put it on Fangfang.
Outside the house, the chief of the government officials gently knocked on the door. Ma Xiaoquan stood up and opened the door a small crack. The leader of the government officials quickly whispered: "Sir, the bodies of the dead brothers have been properly disposed of."
"Very good, your work efficiency is quite good. Okay, I'll give you another ten taels of silver. Go and call your adults back as soon as possible. I don't plan to stay here anymore. It's a bit dangerous."
After that, Ma Xiaoquan threw out a piece of silver worth ten taels and gave it to the chief of the government officials.
To find someone, it would cost at most dozens of dollars. Ma Xiaoquan offered him ten taels at a time. The chief of the government officials couldn't refuse. Of course, he definitely didn't want to refuse. The deacon just asked him to find someone. Once he found someone, he would be done with it.
, then wouldn’t it be true that the remaining money... With this money, I can eat and drink freely for half a year?
"Yes~ Little one, let's go right now!"
...
Fangfang woke up just after the chief of the Yamen left. Seeing the coat covered by Ma Xiaoquan on her body, Fangfang felt moved and happy at the same time.
"Sir..." Fangfang called softly, and Ma Xiaoquan turned his head, smiled and nodded.
"Sir, I want to leave here as soon as possible. It's not safe here."
Ma Xiaoquan nodded: "I already told them to call the county magistrate. We will leave when others come back."
"But we don't have enough manpower. It may take several days to get to the capital. What should we do in the past few days?"
Ma Xiaoquan grinned and said, "Let's go on our own~" As he said that, he took out two human skin masks from his arms, one for a man and one for a woman.
"Well, Yue'er gave this to me before I left the capital last time. I didn't need it at first, but now it seems that I will."
After saying that, Ma Xiaoquan handed the woman's human skin mask to Fangfang. Fangfang gestured and carefully put it on her face.
It just fits and fits perfectly.
Fangfang, whose face changed, took the bronze mirror and looked at it. While looking at it, she said in surprise: "I also heard Sister Yue'er and Sister Xiaomei (Beiming Shuangxue) talk about the human skin mask. Today I
It’s pasted, it’s really amazing~”
Ma Xiaoquan nodded and said: "In another hour, it will be time for everyone to eat. We can leave at that time without being seen by too many people."
"Hmm~"
"Well, there is another brother. I have asked him to leave first. I think he is almost gone by now."
"Oh, sir, are we just going to leave?"
"Yes~"
Fangfang smiled and blushed slightly. In fact, she was looking forward to the opportunity to be alone with Ma Xiaoquan, because Fangfang admired Ma Xiaoquan and loved this man very much. As long as she saw him, Fangfang's heart would be at peace.
"Well, then I'll go clean it up right now."
...
Half an hour later, Ma Xiaoquan and Fangfang completed their disguises. Since little Zhifeng was still a baby, he didn't need much disguise. He only needed to replace the used swaddling cloth.
Outside the courtyard, the 66 government officials received notices one after another to eat.
After all the government officials left, Ma Xiaoquan took Fangfang and quietly walked out of the room. The two of them went out through the side door, and then quickly walked out of the county along the path.
Looking back, she saw green smoke rising from every house in the county. Fangfang sighed and said, "Sir, let's just leave like this, okay?"
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled and said: "Intriguing, didn't you pay attention to the note I just left? What I wrote above is - if you want someone, come to me, you know who I am...
"
"Uh~~" Fangfang scratched her head and said in confusion, "Sir, you are writing this, I don't understand."
"Haha, it's okay, you don't need to understand, just follow me~"
...
After the meal, two government officials knocked on the door, but there was no response. The officials did not dare to break in, so they had to leave obediently.
Until the evening, the government officials did not see Ma Xiaoquan and his wife coming out of the house. One of them couldn't help it and said, "I don't understand. Aren't you hungry?"
"Hey, I must have not slept well after finishing, so I'm going to catch up on my sleep now."
While he was talking, the chief of the government officials came back, followed behind him was the county magistrate, Pang Yuehai.
When the government officials saw the leader and the county magistrate, they quickly stood up straight.
Pang Yuehai was also confused. He originally agreed to go out for three days, but the leader of the government officials suddenly called and informed him that several brothers had died. Pang Yuehai had no choice but to find an excuse to the governor and sneak back to see the situation.
"Huh? Why is the door closed?"
"To tell you what to say, the deacon hasn't gone out for a day. He must be catching up on his sleep."
Pang Yuehai frowned and said, "Then I'll call you."
Pang Yuehai walked to the door of the house and knocked gently on the door.
"Master Deacon, the official is back..." Pang Yuehai politely held his hands outside the door.
"Master Deacon, please open the door. The official is back..." Pang Yuehai said again.
"Sir Deacon...Sir Deacon..." Pang Yuehai called several times, but there was no response from the room. He raised his hand and pushed the door subconsciously, and the door opened with a creak.
.
"Is the door unlocked?" Pang Yuehai was stunned, quickly opened the door and stepped in.
There was no one in the house, and the bed was in a mess, with clothes worn by men, women, and babies scattered randomly on it.
Pang Yuehai was shocked. He stepped forward and saw that no one was there. When he turned around and looked again, he saw a piece of paper on the table.
Pang Yuehai came closer and saw the words written on the paper.
The ink has dried, but judging from the texture, it should have been written today.
