As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of officers and soldiers with swords in their hands and fierce eyes suddenly sprang out from all around, surrounding Xia Yunqing and several others.
They were like a pack of wolves, with a murderous look in their eyes.
Faced with the threat to his life, Xia Yunqing showed no fear, raised his chest and shouted loudly: "Aren't you afraid of angering the court and ending up with your body and head missing?"
Ma Sanbao took out his sword, wiped the sharp blade, and said calmly: "I have never been afraid!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he winked to the right, and four or five officers and soldiers immediately approached a few people with swords in hand.
"Lord Xia, please step aside for now!" Suddenly there was a roar that shook the earth and the mountains.
Xia Yunqing immediately took a step back, and saw Totuo holding the gold-spiked iron rod high and swinging it several times quickly above his head. Then he used the "Tiger Down the Mountain" move, which made countless bloody holes in the three officers and soldiers, and they immediately fell to the ground and died suddenly.
He turned around and used the "Earth Demon Stick Technique" again. The golden spikes on the stick instantly thrust out a soldier. He waved his hand back with all his strength, and the officer and soldier was swung far away and hit the ground heavily. All the muscles and bones in his body were exhausted. Broken, fell to the ground and died.
When the surrounding officers and soldiers saw this, they were all afraid of Totuo's bravery and ferocity. They just held their weapons and shouted curses, but did not dare to approach rashly again.
There was no fear on Ma Sanbao's face.
He raised his right hand and slowly hooked a few fingers.
Then seven or eight more officers and soldiers armed with long spears rushed over from behind and surrounded Toto from all sides.
At this time, the crossbowmen hiding not far away had already drawn their bows and aimed arrows at Ma Sanbao.
A stern voice came from the darkness: "Why don't you just tie your hands? The crossbow doesn't recognize people!" As he spoke, the bowstring in his hand was pulled fuller.
Ma Sanbao glanced at the crossbowman with a cold gaze, then turned to look at Xia Yunqing, and said calmly: "You can try it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the arrow in the crossbow's hand had already left the string. At the sound of the string, the arrow fired like a meteor, and instantly shot down six or seven officers and soldiers holding long spears.
One of the sharp arrows was flying towards Ma Sanbao's right shoulder.
But he saw that Ma Sanbao was not in a hurry. He raised his hand and grabbed the extremely fast arrow. Then, with a "click", he broke the arrow into two pieces. From beginning to end, his eyes did not blink once.
Even Toto was shocked by this posture, and couldn't help but praise: He is really a calm and fierce master who is rare in the world!
Toto was unwilling to give in, and immediately shouted loudly and rushed out. Where the iron bar was raised, the officers and soldiers screamed and fell back.
In the blink of an eye, he had rushed to Ma Sanbao's side and stabbed him with his stick.
Ma Sanbao reacted very quickly, and he quickly raised his knife to block it. The two blades collided, making a deafening clanking sound.
Seeing the fight between the two getting tighter and tighter, Tuo Tuo's wrist strength was steady, and the mace in his hand was powerful and roaring in the wind.
Ma Sanbao, on the other hand, is agile and flexible, and his sword skills are agile and changeable, but he is always calm and calm.
The two of them pushed and exchanged moves, and you came and went, and it was hard to tell the difference for a while.
Seeing that Ma Sanbao had been restrained, Lu Ning immediately charged towards the crowd with a nine-section whip.
More than a dozen officers and soldiers lined up, pointed their spears at her, and shouted in unison.
When he was about to charge for the kill, he saw arrows coming like a rain in front of him. Everyone wailed and fell down. Lu Ning took advantage of this situation and made silver flowers fly in his hands, and more than a dozen officers and soldiers were knocked to the ground.
The officers and soldiers at the rear saw the fierceness of the intruder and dared not take a step forward.
On the other side, Toto and Ma Sanbao were fighting fiercely, with deadly moves and no flaws.
Lu Ning shouted at the top of his lungs: "Crossbowmen, cover me!" After saying that, he joined the battle between the two of them with a whip.
Because of her petite stature and dexterous movement, the nine-section whip in her hand was versatile and could be used to attack from a distance or defend at close range. In just a few rounds, she was able to tightly entangle Ma Sanbao.
When Ma Sanbao ran toward Lu Ning with his sword in hand, Toto's mace followed closely, forcing him to turn around and take the attack, which was a bit overwhelming.jj.br
After a while, Ma Sanbao was so distracted by Lu Ning that he accidentally exposed his flaw, but it only took a moment.
Toto looked at the right time and drank loudly
He made a sound and hit his back with a "Hungry Wolf Pounce" move.
Ma Sanbao staggered, spat out a mouthful of blood, and took a few steps back.
He swung the big knife casually, and the blade of the knife plunged straight into the ground, and he barely managed to steady himself.
The officers and soldiers behind him saw this and went to rescue them, but the crossbowmen fired several more arrows, forcing them back.
Toto carried the bloodied mace and walked up to Ma Sanbao to stand ready to prevent him from attacking Lu Ning and Xia Yunqing again.
Lu Ning took the opportunity to return to Xia Yunqing, cupped his hands and said in a deep voice: "Master Xia, please! There is no danger anymore!"
Xia Yunqing nodded, strode up to Ma Sanbao, carefully looked at the strong man who still had no fear on his face, and asked in a deep voice: "Ma Sanbao, do you want to continue?"
Ma Sanbao's cold eyes stared directly at him, but she still didn't speak. The blood kept flowing out from her back vest, and the yellow sand under her feet was dyed red drop by drop.
When Xia Yunqing saw that he didn't stop him anymore, he waved to the officials behind him.
The government officials immediately understood and immediately separated into two waves. One wave of government officials trotted to the mine, cleared out the prisoners working inside, and put a seal on the entrance of the mine.
Another group of people counted all the prisoners, removed their shackles from their hands and feet, and brought them to Xia Yunqing.
Xia Yunqing looked at these haggard prisoners with sore hands and feet, and couldn't bear it: "You can leave after each of you has finished registration. But you should not leave Lingzhou in the past few days, and wait for notification from the government at any time.
.During this period, there will be doctors from the government to treat you!"
When those people heard this, tears filled their eyes immediately, and they all knelt down and knelt down to worship: "Thank you, Master Qingtian, for saving your life! Thank you, Master Qingtian, for saving your life!"
Xia Yunqing couldn't bear to look any further, so she quickly turned around, waved her right hand, and asked the government officials to take them away.
Toto put away his mace and walked over, raised his hand and asked, "Master Xia, what should we do with these officers and soldiers?"
Xia Yunqing thought for a moment and said: "There are too many people. We can't find a place to resettle them for the time being, so we will imprison them all here. Send more people to watch them. I will make a decision after I ask them one by one!"
Toto glanced at the injured Ma Sambo and asked, "Where's that guy?"
Xia Yunqing was in a dilemma. She was worried that he would run away, but also couldn't find a suitable place to detain him.
After thinking about it, he said: "Let's lock him here for the time being! Just lock the door and not allow him to leave even half a step. In addition, find a doctor to come over and help him heal!"
Toto frowned and said anxiously: "That man's martial arts are so unpredictable that I can't control him alone. If I let him stay here, wouldn't I let him run away?"
Xia Yunqing sighed and said: "There is no other way at the moment. I must end this case as soon as possible! There is no conclusive evidence and we can't convict him yet, and we haven't found the person behind it yet. For now, the only solution is
Send more people to take turns guarding him!"
Toto scratched his scalp and couldn't think of a better way, so he had to obey the order.
Lu Ning walked up to Xia Yunqing's ear and whispered: "Master Xia, last time I entered the iron mine, I found that there was a secret door inside. I don't know where it leads. Do you want to send someone to take a look?"
Xia Yunqing frowned slightly and asked suspiciously, "Does the leader of the Lu Gang know how to break the door?"
Lu Ning shook his head and said apologetically: "The stone door is very thick. I was anxious last time and didn't see any mechanism. I couldn't figure it out for the time being! However, I always feel that there may be a big secret hidden behind the stone door."
Xia Yunqing muttered: "Let's do this for today. After I finish the interrogation, maybe I will know how to open the door!"
After that, he led everyone to send away the prisoners, imprisoned all the soldiers, and then led everyone back.
----------------------------------------
As the sun sets in the west, cicadas all over the mountain are singing incessantly.
"That doesn't make sense!"
The jackdaws that were already roosting in the courtyard of Magistrate Cai were frightened by the cries and flew away from the courtyard one after another.
he heard a
The officers and soldiers who escaped from the garrison reported today's situation and jumped up immediately.
His face was red, and now he was so angry that it was even more swollen like purple sauce.
"This Xia Yunqing is so brave. A mere seventh-grade official dares to interfere in the affairs of this prefect!"
A man who looked like a master beside him interjected: "My boss, please don't get angry. I heard that Xia Yunqing has always been tough and unforgiving. Even the Holy One is afraid of him! Why should you be angry with him?"
Magistrate Cai's face changed drastically and he said angrily: "No matter what rank he was once, he is now my subordinate! He is so arrogant in making opinions, he really doesn't take me seriously!"
In the midst of his rage, there was a knock on the door, and Magistrate Cai winked at the master.
The master immediately walked over, opened the door and scolded: "Don't you see that the master is busy? What can't we talk about later?"
The servant outside the door bowed deeply and said in a trembling voice: "Mrs. Ye outside the door asks to see the prefect!"
The master turned his head and looked at Magistrate Cai, his eyes seemed to be asking.
When Magistrate Cai heard the name of the visitor, he became even more angry and shouted loudly: "It's all because of their poor performance. They have caused so much trouble to me, and they dare to come to me! Tell her that they are missing!"
The master turned to the servant and said: "Just say that I am not feeling well today and let her go back first. She will come back in a few days when I feel better!"
Upon hearing this, the servant quickly bowed and left.
The master closed the door, walked to Magistrate Cai and said kindly: "Sir, maybe Mrs. Ye has something to ask you for. Is she really missing? Now that things have come to an end, we should join the group to keep warm! Think about it, once Xia Yunqing
If we really find out that this iron mine belongs to King Yi, he will definitely not let us go!"
Magistrate Cai sat down on the Grand Master's chair, took a deep breath, and said coldly: "Huh! There are as many women as I want. If I hadn't given Elder Yun some thin noodles, I definitely wouldn't have her.
! Now that the cowardly Elder Yun is dead, and their caravan is not doing things well, Xia Yunqing is targeting me. What use is this old and beautiful woman!" After saying that, he closed his eyes slightly.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door again. Magistrate Cai frowned, and Master immediately turned around and opened the door.
He opened the door suddenly and was about to lose his temper. When he looked at the person, he was suddenly startled.
He turned around, waved to the officer and soldier, and the two quietly left the room.
The people outside the door walked into the house and then closed the door tightly.
