Chapter 236 People’s hearts are fickle

Magistrate Cao looked at the group of people crying like ghosts and wolves, with anger in his eyes, "Since the village has been set on fire, these people are of no use to me anymore, so just kill them."

A light word seemed to be carrying a thousand pounds and hit everyone's hearts hard.

The villagers slowly stopped crying and looked at the people they cared about most.

At this time, a young man in the center of the crowd laughed and cursed:

"The world is in decline, and pigs and dogs are in power. Instead of starving to death, I was killed by a traitor. It's really ridiculous."

When County Magistrate Cao heard this, he was not ashamed, but smiled proudly: "This is the benefit of power. If I want you to die, you will die. If I want you to live, you will live. Young man, remember, in the next life Give birth to a good child and stop living such a useless life."

At the critical moment, a clear and calm voice sounded from the side: "Stop."

Everyone subconsciously raised their heads to look for the source of the sound.

Zhao Zhizhi climbed down carefully along the slope of the back mountain to the road.

Then, under the attention of everyone, he slowly walked to a place still a little distance away from Magistrate Cao and stopped.

"My Lord County Magistrate, you are fine. What do you want to do by going to war?"

Magistrate Cao came to his senses and looked at her with a smile, "Why don't you continue hiding?"

Zhao Zhizhi said in surprise:

"What are you talking about? I didn't hide. I just went up the mountain to collect medicine. Could it be that you came to find me?"

She asked pretending to be confused:

"Then why did you arrest all the villagers? Did they make any mistakes? Or should I say, did the village chief make any mistakes?"

Magistrate Cao sneered. He was not fooled by her, but asked directly:

"Where is the man who came to pick you up at my residence a few days ago?"

Zhao Zhizhi frowned, shook his head and said:

"Why can't I understand what you are talking about? Who dares to break into your mansion without your permission?"

Magistrate Cao immediately became angry. How could he not understand what Zhao Zhizhi meant? She was planning another problem for him.

If he continues to inquire about the man's whereabouts, everyone will know that his mansion has been broken into, and not only will his face be damaged, but his majesty will also be greatly compromised.

But if this matter were to be revealed, his trip today would be in vain, and he would have to suffer from nightmares every day.

Magistrate Cao laughed angrily, clapped his hands and said three words "good" in succession, "Okay, it seems that I have really underestimated you. It is obvious that since you can get the reward from the emperor, you will naturally not be good at anything." Small."

He narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "However, the man I just mentioned is a murderer who has been wanted by the court for many years. He has committed a heinous crime. Now that I finally have clues about him, I will not give up."

As soon as these words came out, the villagers in Xiaohe Village immediately thought of the rumors in the past.

People's minds are fickle, especially when it comes to your own personal safety.

Everyone forgot about the misunderstanding and just wanted to persuade Zhao Zhizhi to hand him over.

In their opinion, if one person's life can be exchanged for so many lives, then it is worth it.

"Zhao Zhizhi, are you talking about the husband you stole? I told you that his origin is unknown and you cannot keep him. You still don't believe me. It's better now because he almost killed the whole village."

"My poor Da Zhuang, he lost his life before he even got a wife and children, all because of that dirty man."

"Zhao Zhizhi, why are you hesitating? Tell him immediately. You and your family, including all the villagers in our village, will be fine. Your Excellency will not embarrass us again."

Zhao Zhizhi felt ridiculous as he listened to the chattering of the villagers behind him.

They are still taking chances. Magistrate Cao is simply a heartless beast. If Wei Shao shows up now and is executed.

The end result for these people is to be eradicated to prevent the matter from being spread.

One or two of them were both brainless, and Zhao Zhizhi was too lazy to pay attention to them.

Magistrate Cao chuckled and said: "So that man is the husband you stole. Did you hear what the villagers said? As long as you hand him over, I will never pursue you for hiding a murderer. You You can still live happily in Xiaohe Village, and I will send people to help you rebuild the village."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was sure that Zhao Zhizhi would compromise and looked at her proudly.

The next second, what Zhao Zhizhi said successfully made his face change, and his eyes were full of gloom.

"Sir, if you had come earlier, I might be able to provide you with clues. Unfortunately, he left yesterday. I don't know where he went. He didn't tell me anything."

What Zhao Zhizhi said was half true and half false. She really didn't know where Wei Shao had gone or what he was doing. She only knew that he would definitely come back to Xiaohe Village.

Magistrate Cao was extremely angry. He determined that Zhao Zhizhi was lying. He waved his hand and threatened with narrowed eyes:

"You have to think carefully. I have finally come out and I can't return without success. Even if you don't know anything, you are the person closest to him, so I can only take you back. "

Zhao Zhizhi had already guessed that he would say this. She said calmly: "In that case, then you can take me back. After all, the girl has not committed any crime. Please investigate and release the girl."

When County Magistrate Cao saw that Zhao Zhizhi refused to eat, he was so angry that his face turned red and his neck was thick, and his plump face became even more ugly.

Zhao Zhizhi looked away to avoid vomiting in front of Magistrate Cao.

"Okay, as you wish." Magistrate Cao said with cruelty.

Zhao Zhizhi said again: "Sir, these villagers are innocent. Can you let them go?"

Zhao Zhizhi has already come out, so Magistrate Cao naturally has no reason to kill these villagers again.

But he couldn't get rid of his anger. Before Zhao Zhizhi said this, he was thinking of taking Zhao Zhizhi away first, and then let others deal with these villagers.

Now that Zhao Zhizhi had spoken out, he could no longer do this.

Magistrate Cao made another note for Zhao Zhizhi in his mind, glanced at the shivering villagers squatting on the ground, and said with a smile:

"That's natural. I'm not a bandit and I won't kill innocent people indiscriminately."

Zhao Zhizhi curled his lips and smiled lightly: "Then I will thank you for them here."

Magistrate Cao said coldly: "You should worry about yourself."

Zhao Zhizhi ignored him, turned around, walked to the nearest villager, squatted down, and whispered: "Aunt Niu, I was in a hurry when I came out and didn't tell my family. You and my father and brother will meet you later." Say, tell them not to worry about me, I will be back soon.”

"Also, don't let them go to the Yamen to look for me."

When he said the last sentence, Zhao Zhizhi's eyes flashed with an unquestionable look.
