When everyone heard this sound, they were so scared that they didn't even dare to breathe.

A few messengers were leaning against the wall, listening to the conversation going on outside.

"Say, if we do this, it will be a crime of decapitation!"

"Nonsense, if we don't do this, would it be better than getting beheaded? When we were dividing the money, I didn't see you hesitating. Now that the old master is in trouble, he just wants us to help him kill someone. Furthermore, the old master has promised us a hundred silver taels each after the deal is completed. "The world is big, if we take the silver and leave, who knows who did it?"

"That's right, and it's not only your family that are doing this. I heard from my master that the deputy chief soldier has also brought people!"

While these people were talking, Luo Lingwei had already arranged for people to get into their respective seats in the county magistrate court. At this moment, every wall in the front gate's backyard had traps set up by Xiaoqing.

The women were also placed in the rooms in the deepest part of the courtyard. The remaining men all held their weapons and sabers, guarding in the dark. They waited until these thieves had entered the house and then attacked them unexpectedly.

"Who are you people!" At this moment, an angry shout came from outside the county magistrate court. From the sound of the voice, it was not that of anyone else but the local government head. Following that, the sound of weapons clashing could be heard from outside the wall.

It turned out that they had all brought a group of brothers with them to Brightheart Temple, but now there was a messenger behind them. They said they'd sealed esteemed wangfei's decree to make them hurry back.

Along the way, the messenger had told them all of Monk Yuan Zhen's confession before a wave of fear swept through the crowd. They all thought to themselves, Esteemed wangfei's name really does live up to its name.

Soon after, the crowd hurriedly rushed back to the city. However, it was already late at night.

However, all of them knew the personality of this county. Furthermore, this was an extraordinary period, so they directly brought their men to the county magistrate's office to meet up with the county magistrate's staff.

Unexpectedly, they coincidentally bumped into these evil slaves who were about to commit heinous acts. Thus, they drew their sabers and began to fight with the slaves.

Fortunately, they were all skilled practitioners. Otherwise, if these ten or so people wanted to resist the 40 or 50 people outside the door, they would be unable to do so.

In the courthouse, Zhao Hu was standing on top of a roof as he looked outside. At this time, he discovered that there were already a few messengers injured, but if he opened the door to save them, it would attract everyone's attention. Moreover, these guards were only the enemy's vanguard troops. As the enemy said, there were still over a hundred elite soldiers who had yet to arrive.

"Which one of you can use a bow? Go up to the roof to cover them, and then there will be a few more people to follow me to save them. " In a moment of desperation, Luo Lingwei couldn't care less and grabbed a long spear before heading out the door.

At this time, Luo Lingwei had already changed into a military uniform. This suit of armor was specially made by Lian He for Luo Lingwei on the night before her trip.

At this time, Luo Lingwei had also arranged for Xiaoqing to be on standby on the rooftop while Zhao Hu was guarding Luo Lingwei with a spear in his hand. Luo Lingwei brought a few courageous people with her and rushed out of the door. This frightened all of the servants. When the leader of the troops saw that someone had come to rescue them, his morale was greatly boosted. He couldn't care less about what he had on his hands. This team of fifty to sixty people was actually frightened by these twenty people.

These guards were not soldiers who had been through many battles. Now that they saw blood, they were scared to begin with, but because of the large number of people on their side, they could still fight. However, seeing a group of people suddenly rush out, it was hard to tell how many people there were in the dark night. For a moment, they were thrown into disorder, and many of them immediately turned around to flee.

The remaining people saw that someone was trying to escape, so they also joined in. In the blink of an eye, all of these fifty to sixty people ran away.

Luo Lingwei and the others took the opportunity to regroup and quickly returned to the yamen.

After returning to the yamen, Luo Lingwei quickly arranged for Little White and the other female members of the family to treat the wounded. Xiaoqing then led the group of archers to hide on the rooftop, observing the scene outside the county magistrate's office.

At this moment, the hubbub at the entrance of the county magistrate court had already alarmed the surrounding residents. Many curious citizens quietly ran out to take a look.

He didn't know if they were looking, but when he looked he saw a field of fresh blood. Several torches were still burning, illuminating the dead bodies on the ground, making them scream in fear.

"Someone come!" Not good! "Murder!"

In a split-second, the streets outside the yamen's gates were in an uproar. All of a sudden, every household lit up their lamps and dressed, getting up to watch the commotion.

At this moment, the sound of a gong was heard. In the darkness of the night, he could vaguely see a group of people heading in their direction.

"Lord Chief Soldier has been ordered to apprehend those responsible, those who have nothing to do should leave quickly!" Otherwise, I will kill you! "

After the order to clear the way was given, the group arrived at the street. They could hear the bustling streets at night. However, it was now quiet.

At this time, Luo Lingwei was also on the rooftop. She continued to observe with the moonlight and discovered that their armor was dark and their weapons were dull. All of the soldiers were yawning without spirit.

From the looks of it, he didn't train much during the day, so he was relieved. However, although these people did not train much, they were still regular soldiers. They were not as easy to deal with as the motley crowd just now.

Just as Luo Lingwei was thinking of a countermeasure, a loud shout came from outside the gates of the county magistrate court.

The crime of harbouring a court official is a capital offense, and the crime of occupying a county magistrate is even more serious. Those who are wise, surrender quickly and I will leave you with your corpses intact, otherwise I will lead my men to attack you and tear you to pieces.

A burst of shouting came from outside the door, Luo Lingwei followed it with the moonlight to see who it was. She saw that the person had a big stomach, sitting on a horse, holding an apple in one hand and holding onto the reins with the other.

"Xiaoqing, are you confident you can hit that fellow?" Luo Lingwei pointed at the soldier and said to Xiaoqing.

Xiaoqing nodded and said, "If it's just a shot, then this servant is confident."

Luo Lingwei nodded her head and said: "Then quickly shoot him off the horse. If this guy dies, this group of people will certainly fall into chaos."

Xiaoqing nodded, but didn't say anything. She held her crossbow and aimed it at the soldier on horseback.

"Whiz!" The arrow in Xiaoqing's hand shot out with a whistling sound. However, at this moment, a mouse appeared out of nowhere and startled the soldier. However, as he tilted his body, the bolt passed by his shoulder and nailed him to the head of his trusted follower.

After the follower was hit by the arrow, he fell backwards and the corpse immediately fell to the ground.

Little Qing wanted to shoot again, but the other side immediately sent up a squad of shield soldiers, surrounding the Lord Chief.

"Damn it!" To refuse a toast is to refuse a forfeit! Brothers, attack! "
