I became the apex of my nemesis by acting

The food bag under their feet winked at the yamen servants, relying on the large number of people, they dared to fight Xue Beiwang, and some of them rushed towards Bai Chengjue.

Xue Beiwang stepped forward to block, and at the same time he had to take into account the safety of the two of them, even if he was an expert, it would inevitably be difficult.

Under the mask, Bai Chengjue narrowed his eyes slightly, and stomped hard on the throat of the magistrate of Nanmin County. Looking at the fat, swollen and reddened face under the suffocation, he opened his mouth wide and let out a "ho ho—" breathing sound. But no matter what, he couldn't push Bai Chengjue's foot away.

After a while, the county magistrate's arms fell weakly, his eyes rolled up, and spitting stars flowed out of the man's mouth. Bai Chengjue with a cold face, retracted the strength of his feet.

Shen Sheng said: "Speak."

The magistrate of Nanmin County shouted hoarsely: "Stop, stop!"

Bai Chengjue said: "Let them close the city gate and retreat."

"Not yet done in a snapshot."

The gates of the city were closed again, outside the gates there were harsh curses and conspiracies, officials and officials protected each other, desperate cries and cries, as if there was no hope for the future...

Bai Chengjue closed his eyes weakly, stepped up again, looked at the bloodshot eyes looking at him in disbelief, almost broke the dog official's throat, and then withdrew his strength again.

"Wang Bei, give me the sword."

Xue Beiwang frowned slightly and handed the sword in front of Bai Chengjue.

The county magistrate was so frightened that he tightly held Bai Chengjue's ankles, and hurriedly shook his head, with a flattering smile on his face: "My lord... my lord, I am also the county magistrate, you can't take human lives carelessly because of your status as a royal family."

"Naturally, this king has always strictly abided by the laws of the Wu Kingdom." Bai Chengjue said with a smile, the knife in his hand pierced the dog officer's arm, under the ear-piercing scream, Bai Chengjue turned his head and glanced at Xue Beiwang, "Wang Beiwang on the waist There are also scratches, but if this king returns the knife to him, wouldn't it be a reckless disregard for human life."

Gou Guan endured the pain and hurriedly nodded to meet him.

The sword pulled //out// from the wound, and stabbed the dog officer on the shoulder box, causing him to scream and cry out in pain.

Bai Chengjue looked at the pale county magistrate with a pair of smiling eyes, and patted his cheek with the bloody blade, only to see that the fat on this man's face was trembling.

"You should be thankful that the king's people only scratched, otherwise, cutting off your arms would not be enough to pay back."

"Yes, the officer should die."

"Remember, if there is anything good or bad about this king's people, I will use a knife to see if your fat is taken off and your bones are black."

After finishing speaking, Bai Chengjue handed the sword to Xue Beiwang with one hand, and said softly, "Wash it, it's all dirty."

Bai Chengjue let go of his feet, and the dog officer quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

Even Bai Chengjue nodded repeatedly when he was going to the cashier.

The county magistrate led the two of them into the hut in the government office. Thousands of books were placed in the cabinet, with no age limit marked, and the whole room was messy.

"The lower official has set a table to clean up the dust for the prince. Do you want the prince to have dinner first, and then..."

Bai Chengjue said: "No, let's step back first."

The county magistrate looked at the account book in front of him, hesitated to speak, and finally gritted his teeth and left the account room.

When there was no outsider outside the door, Bai Chengjue held the table with his hands, his figure swayed, sniffed the musty smell in the account room, and let out a muffled cough uncontrollably.

Holding on to the discomfort, he picked up the ledger on the floor and flipped through it at the desk.

Looking closely at the red scratches and wounds left by the iron helmet on the neck, Xue Beiwang watched Bai Chengjue turn over the ledger, coughing lightly from time to time.

It seemed that he had also been stabbed in the chest, so he wouldn't die, but it caused him a piercing pain.

Bai Chengjue said: "I don't know how long it will take to read the thousand volumes of accounts. Wang Bei is really bored, so he can walk around."

"What he shows you is not necessarily the accounts of the past three years."

Bai Chengjue said softly: "Frozen three feet is not a day's cold." He twisted the account book with two fingers, looked at each page of the account carefully, and could feel the concerned eyes behind him quickly pinning him out of the hole, "Look north. "

"I'm here."

Bai Chengjue said: "This king is hungry, so I will skip the table and ask the dog official to prepare some porridge and side dishes."

"it is good."

An hour later, Xue Beiwang entered the room with a plate, and Bai Chengjue only asked Xue Beiwang to eat first, and then he ate alone in the counting room.

From the moment he entered the accounting room, Bai Chengjue had been flipping through the account books almost without sleep, and came out halfway to ask the county magistrate to prepare the household registration information for the past few years, and then stayed in the room and worked hard.

Bai Chengjue didn't sleep, and Xue Beiwang couldn't sleep either. It was late at night, and the candles in the house were still burning. This was already the second night in Nanmin County. He sat outside the door, looking at the accountant behind him with a gloomy expression.

Even if there is no previous injury, this body is not made of iron, how can it be consumed like this.

Xue Beiwang stood up and knocked on the door: "My lord."

"Cough... No one needs to guard the door, go back and rest..."

Bai Chengjue's voice sounded muffled through the door.

"What about you?"

"If you are tired, I will take a nap in the account room, don't worry."

Xue Beiwang knew that the current situation would not be able to persuade Bai Chengjue, so he could only answer and continue to sit outside with him.

Late at night, Bai Chengjue pushed open the door and saw Xue Beiwang leaning against a pillar beside him with his eyes closed, resting his mind. Bai Chengjue took off his outer robe and walked behind Xue Beiwang, meeting those eyes.

Bai Chengjue sighed and squatted down beside Xue Beiwang: "What's wrong? Wang Bei can't sleep alone."

"I'm not a three-year-old child."

Bai Chengjue said softly, "Then why are you squatting here and not leaving?"

Xue Beiwang said, "You didn't turn off the lights either."

Bai Chengjue sighed, and put his palm on Xue Beiwang's shoulder: "Go back to sleep, or do you want me to sit outside with you all night?"

Xue Beiwang wanted to refute, but seeing the red marks on his neck under the iron face deepened, he clenched his fists secretly: "Give me the iron helmet, my lord, and I'll go back..."

After finishing speaking, Xue Beiwang was afraid that Bai Chengjue would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained: "I can't carry my back and turn around to look at you. You put the iron helmet outside the door, then enter the room and knock on the door. I promise to return the iron helmet to you tomorrow morning." .”

"Okay." Bai Chengjue got up and turned his back to Xue Beiwang, took off the iron helmet on his face and walked to the door. After entering the room and knocking on the door, he leaned against the door and heard Xue Beiwang's footsteps approaching. , you have to sleep with this king's iron helmet in your arms."

"Yeah, can't sleep."

Seeing that the lights in your room are brightly lit all night, how can I fall asleep peacefully.

Xue Bei looked at the figure with his back on his hands, sighed, withdrew his hands again, and left with the iron helmet in his arms.

Inside the room, Bai Chengjue lowered his eyes, covered his lips with his hands, and blocked the cough back into his throat.

The ledger on the desk was stained with shocking blood. Bai Chengjue took out the porcelain bottle at his waist and took two pills. He looked at the ledger and the household registration of the people in Nanmin County again, and almost stayed up all night...

In the early morning of the next day, there was a knock on the door, which made him wake up from the desk in a daze, and the account book was stained with vermilion again at some point.

The door was pushed open, but Bai Chengjue didn't look back, only heard Xue Beiwang say: "The iron helmet is behind you."

After finishing speaking, Xue Beiwang left the room.

Bai Chengjue got up with a stick on the table, and went forward to pick up the iron helmet on the table, the edges of which had been polished patiently.

He touched the smooth and shiny surface with his fingers, and gently knocked on the wooden door with his hand.

"are you still there?"

"Still."

There were too many things I wanted to say, but in the end I just opened my mouth and said softly: "...Thank you."

Xue Beiwang looked down at his hands that were scratched by the thin knife, smiled, and whispered, "You won't get hurt again in the future."
