I played the world alone

Chapter 207 Arrest and Interrogation

The people of Xujia Village never thought that there would be a time when their remote village would be surrounded by a large group of officers and soldiers.

The scale is about twenty or thirty, all armed with weapons and heavily guarded.

And there was a group of people following behind, including monks and Taoists, and of course there were some martial arts people. At first glance, it was a mess.

Facing the menacing officers and soldiers, the patriarch was fearful, for fear that some of them might not be well received.

What I didn't expect was that the other party grabbed his collar and questioned: "I heard that a person named Xu Xian came to your side recently? Now the magistrate suspects that this person is a gangster who committed crimes on the run! If you dare to cover up, you will be guilty of the same crime!"

"Where is he now, hurry up and take us to see him!"

The patriarch and other people in the village were shocked when they heard this.

Prefect?

That's a big shot they can't even imagine!

Not to mention the Jiangyang Bandit...

How could such a good Xu Xian be a bad guy?

But at this moment they didn't dare to say much, fearing these vicious officers and soldiers, they could only carefully lead the way to the wooden house where Xu Xian lived.

As soon as I got closer, I heard the sound of reading aloud.

It was Xu Xian who patiently taught the children in the village to read and write.

Xiaoqing was also among them, shaking her head and thinking in a serious manner.

The patriarch poked his head around and saw the gentle and jade-like gentleman Xu Xian, he still felt a little guilty, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like a criminal.

But it doesn't matter what he said about this matter, at this moment, some officers and soldiers stepped forward to reprimand him.

"You are Xu Xian?"

Xu Xian was taken aback, looked back at the people who were forcing them over, and nodded with some doubts: "I'm right here."

"Okay! Take him down! Take him back to the government office and interrogate him slowly!"

With an order, and under his stunned gaze, several officers and soldiers rushed forward to put shackles on him and held down his hands, before pulling him back.

"and many more!"

Xiaoqing immediately dropped the pen and paper in her hand, and ran to them in front of them and stretched out her hand to stop them.

"Why did you arrest him!"

Facing a little girl carved in pink and jade, those people's attitudes were not so fierce, but they were still not polite.

"This person may be the monster's accomplice! Don't stop me, or I will take you back with me!"

No one thinks such a lovely girl is a vicious monster.

Xiaoqing stared and wanted to defend herself, but Bai Suzhen pulled her back before she could speak.

"Xiao Qing, don't mess around. Since Mr. Xu Xian is innocent, compared to the magistrate, he will find out the truth and won't wrong the people."

As soon as she spoke, other people's attention was also focused on her. Seeing this, they were immediately amazed.

Many people stared blankly, unable to believe that there are such fairy-like characters in the world.

Except for Fa Hai who just watched silently, everyone else swallowed in unison.

If you don't have to do business now, you have to ask the girl how old she is, where she lives and so on.

Even so, many officers and soldiers couldn't help but take a second look, thinking that they would come back and ask more questions when they had the opportunity.

After Xu Xian was taken away, even though Xiaoqing respected her sister, she couldn't help but wonder at this moment: "Sister, why can't we take action to save him! This time it was all caused by me..."

Bai Suzhen gently patted her head.

"If it's possible, I would naturally want to make a move. But among those people just now, there is an old monk who is very powerful. If he made a rash move, he would not be able to save Mr. Xu Xian, but might even involve us."

"Old monk?"

Xiaoqing recalled for a while, and then remembered that there seemed to be an old monk just now.

It's just that the other party was silent and not too conspicuous in the crowd, so he didn't notice it at all.

"Is he really that powerful?"

"Yeah." Bai Suzhen nodded, "But don't worry too much, tonight I will cast a spell to attract their attention and fight, and then you will sneak into the dungeon and rescue the young master."

Xiaoqing nodded solemnly.

……

It's night time soon.

Inside the government office, the magistrate is reviewing today's harvest, accompanied by several attendants and maidservants, as well as Chen Butou and those monster hunters during the day.

It's just that when he saw that Xu Xian was arrested, but he didn't find a penny, he couldn't help frowning.

"Chen Butou, are you sure you have tortured to extract a confession? Then Xu Xianzhen is so stubborn that he refuses to reveal a word?"

He originally thought that with the other party's previous behavior, not to mention tens of thousands of taels of gold, there should be at least a few thousand taels of silver, but now there is nothing left!

But Chen Butou bowed quickly.

"My lord, we have tortured him several times, but Xu Xian just refuses to confess. It's strange, this kid looks like a weak scholar, but his backbone is strong enough."

"Strange." The magistrate squeezed his beard, "Continue to interrogate, I don't believe I can't find out."

As soon as the words were finished, there was a sound like fireworks exploding in the lobby of the front yard, which immediately made him stand up and look into the distance.

"what happened!"

Chen Butou had already taken out his knife, and carefully stood in front of the magistrate.

"My lord, don't be afraid, I'm here."

There were still a few loud laughter from the side.

"My lord, don't be afraid."

"I have already expected that the other party's accomplices will come to rob the prison."

It was the burly man who spoke, holding a butcher's knife in his hand, full of blood.

"That's right, so we made preparations in advance. For example, we have placed some traps in the front hall at this moment."

Another Taoist followed closely behind and said quite proudly.

Obviously the blasting sound just now was his handwriting.

If you want to go to the dungeon here, you must pass through the front hall of the government office, so it is not wrong to set a trap there.

The magistrate heaved a sigh of relief: "Then ask a few people to act quickly, don't let these thieves succeed!"

As soon as they finished speaking, several people looked at each other, and then rushed towards the front hall one after another, for fear that others would take the credit if they were a step too late.

Only Fahai walked slowly, neither in a hurry nor in a hurry.

It seems that there is no worry that the opponent will win the opponent first.

At this moment, in the front hall.

The woman dressed in white stood in a thick cloud of smoke, and there were many sharp arrows aimed at her all around. As long as she moved a little and touched a certain mechanism, those sharp arrows would fly out and penetrate her.

She frowned slightly and looked around.

At this time, the laughter of those demon extermination people came from behind.

"Unexpectedly, even this girl is an accomplice of those evildoers! What a pity."

"It's really a pity that with such a beauty, even the Jiaofang Secretary who went to the capital city is also a well-deserved top card, but he was reduced here..."

Several people commented on it unabashedly.

Because they are very confident and believe that the other party cannot escape from this complicated trap.

In other words, they only need to catch the turtle in the urn now.

"It's never been such an easy task."

Thinking of getting the bounty right away, they all felt very relaxed and comfortable, and even a little ashamed because it was too simple.
