At this moment, everything was clear. That mysterious person didn’t ask for his help, nor did he want to threaten him. He wanted to take his life directly.
“I see. You used me to kill Lin Fu, then turned around and handed the account book to the Dao Ling, putting me in such a situation.”
High, really high!”
County Magistrate Zhang finally straightened everything. He felt bitter in his heart, but at the same time, he felt his hair stand on end.
The mysterious man’s plan had directly killed him and Lin Fu. This scheme was terrifying.
But why did he do that?
From the beginning to the end, County Magistrate Zhang did not think that he had offended this person.
Ever since he came to Sheng County and became the county magistrate, other than receiving a lot of money, he had been trying to smooth things over and not offend anyone.
Other than Lin Fu, there was no one else in Sheng County who hated him. Lin Fu was already dead, so it was impossible for him to do it himself. Otherwise, why would he entrust the bodyguard agency?
County Magistrate Zhang really couldn’t figure it out, especially when he thought of the current situation.
He looked at Li Daoling, who was sitting in the hall, and gritted his teeth.
“Since there’s no way out, I might as well drag you down with me.”
At this point, County Magistrate Zhang knew very well that he had no chance of making a comeback.
If he couldn’t turn things around, he would drag another person down with him.
“Lord, I know I’m guilty, but this wasn’t done by one person. There was a mysterious person who should have handed the account book to you.”County Magistrate Zhang said hurriedly.
In his opinion, since the account book was in Li Daoling’s hands, it must have been given by the mysterious person. After all, the mysterious person had taken the account book from the bodyguard agency.
Didn’t you want to hide your identity?
I won’t give you this chance.
I don’t believe that Jing Yun Dao’s Dao Order can’t find out your background.
I’ll give you a random identity now. You’re going to die anyway, so I can’t care so much.
The closer he was to death, the crazier County Magistrate Zhang became.
However, what he did not expect was that Li Daoling, who was sitting in the chair, became very angry as soon as he said this.
Li Daoling slammed the table with a loud bang. The things on the table shook, and a few of them rolled along the table to the ground and spun far away. Li Daoling looked angrily at County Magistrate Zhang in front of him. His face was red and his tone became stern.
“You’re already on the verge of death, and you still want to drag others down with you? Let me tell you, this account was directly handed over by the Lin family to the Qingyun Academy and the Titanium Temple.”
Directly?
County Magistrate Zhang was stunned when he heard this. He then shook his head crazily.
“Impossible, absolutely impossible. This thing should have been sent through the escort agency. Let me think. That’s right, it’s the Dragon Conqueror Escort Agency.”Magi-Magistrate Zhang became incoherent as he began to speak.
Impossible!
How could this matter have anything to do with the Qingyun Academy and the Titanium Temple? It was completely impossible.
Wait a minute!
Qingyun Academy!
That woman!
“Sir, it must be that woman called Liu Xu. She…” County Magistrate Zhang still wanted to say something.
But before he could finish, he was interrupted by Li Daoling.
“With conclusive evidence, what else do you have to quibble about? Take him to prison and choose a day to be executed!”Li Daoling didn’t want to say anything else.
The Emperor had already made this matter clear. Once it was confirmed, they could choose a day to execute him.
Li Daoling was much clearer than County Magistrate Zhang about the ways of officialdom.
His Majesty had already made it clear, so what else was there to say?
After investigating clearly, this was a happy occasion to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys. If he were to hold a funeral for himself, his career would come to an end.
Sir, I know that I brought this upon myself, but you can’t let that mysterious person off easily. You must capture him, sir, ah…” Before County Magistrate Zhang could finish his sentence, a miserable cry was heard.
A few Rank-8 martial artists beside him walked forward with a silver needle in their hands and inserted it between County Magistrate Zhang’s eyebrows.
County Magistrate Zhang’s scholarly abilities were gone. He sat weakly on the ground and was dragged into prison by a few martial artists.
A moment later, the few martial artists returned to the hall and stood respectfully at the side.
“Send someone to put up notices everywhere in the county. Tomorrow is the best time to execute Magistrate Zhang. “Li Daoling waved his hand.
“Yes, sir!” The few warriors agreed.
In this day and age, not all martial artists could enter the Celestial Bureau. some ot tnem would also seek a position beside tne scnolars or become generals.
After everything was arranged properly, Li Daoling picked up the account book again and flipped through it carefully.
“Young people these days are really serious. However, this is also good. I can use this opportunity to make my future career smoother.”
In the spacious hall, Li Daoling watched as he thought.
For a remote county like Sheng County, many things had happened recently.
When they attacked one after another, the commoners were overwhelmed.
Other than Lin Fuls death in prison, they received another piece of news today. The father and mother of Sheng County would be executed tomorrow.
The reason for the beheading was very simple. He was corrupt and bribed, and he had also received a lot of money.
To the people of Shengxian County, this news was earth-shattering. However, they had no opinion on Magistrate Zhang’s opinion.
Indeed, he had no opinion.
Do you remember?
Yes, but he didn’t have a deep impression.
Ever since County Magistrate Zhang came to Sheng County, he had done almost nothing. He had been trying to mediate the situation every day.
Now that they heard this news, many people were even secretly happy because this county magistrate was indeed not very popular.
After the beheading, the people of Sheng County would have another topic to talk about.
At this moment, in the Bodyguard Agency.
Xu Bai couldn’t help but laugh after he dismissed Liu Er.
This matter could finally come to a satisfactory end.
Once County Magistrate Zhang died, the matter would be considered over.
“Tomorrow, he will be beheaded. I have to go take a look and celebrate with him. “Xu Bai tapped the table lightly and thought to himself.
He had to see County Magistrate Zhang die with his own eyes before he could put down the stone in his heart.
The end of this matter was just a small interlude.
After settling this matter, there were still other things to do.
The bet he made with Monk Wu Hua in the Liu residence had to be fulfilled as soon as possible.
When the time came, he would have to teach Buddhism and make the progress bar live.
He had been coveting that bald head for a long time. The more progress bars he had, the better.
“I seem to be busy recently.” Xu Bai thought to himself, Anyways, I’ll get that bald head after he’s beheaded.”
Thinking of this, Xu Bai picked up the teacup on the table and drank it in one gulp.
While he was leisurely setting up, Liu Xu and No Flower were discussing something in the Liu residence.
“Is this really okay? Isn’t it rude?”Liu Xu’s face was covered with a white veil as she stared at the items on the table.
On the table, there was a green lotus throne.
The lotus throne was made of an unknown metal. It was only the size of a thumb and looked small and exquisite..
