C350 Threat

"County Magistrate, don't believe me. A few years ago, there were still wolves going down the mountain to bite people! It's not surprising that there are big bugs. " The commoners said worriedly, "I wonder if the big bug will come down the mountain?" The incident of the wolves biting someone a few years ago had already scared them badly. If the big worms came down the mountain, then they …

After hearing these words, Liu Zhimo felt reassured in his heart. The tiger's roar came from Ah Huang, and because of this, Xiao Ling had scolded it a little, telling it not to yell anymore, so as to prevent it from being heard by the commoners and scaring them.

Unexpectedly, the thing she was worried about happened.

"You don't have to worry, it's not winter right now. The Ningxia has prey, the big bug won't go down the mountain easily." Liu Zhimo loudly comforted the citizens, "Usually, nothing will happen if you do not go to the Ningxia."

Hearing this, the commoners nodded their heads madly, saying that they would not go to the Ningxia, and would not go to the Ningxia to find firewood in the low forests, not daring to go there to pick firewood.

Liu Zhimo nodded, and comforted them with a few more words, then lifted his leg and left.

After walking a distance, Magistrate Ma whispered to Liu Zhimo. Could it be that the tiger's roar came from Ah Huang?

Otherwise, why would the County Magistrate be so calm?

Liu Zhimo turned and glanced at Magistrate Ma, then patted his shoulder and said, not bad, your brain is working quite fast.

"..." Although he was not as intelligent as the County Magistrate, he was not bad. Why was the County Magistrate looking at him with such a gratified expression?

Magistrate Ma said a few words silently in his stomach, and followed behind Liu Zhimo, not saying another word.

He felt that if he spoke again, he would be beaten to death by the County Magistrate.

"Magistrate Ma, do you want to go to Wutong Village?" Liu Zhimo suddenly asked.

"Huh?" Magistrate Ma didn't hear it clearly for a while, and raised his head to look at Liu Zhimo with a puzzled expression.

"Do you want to go to Wutong Village?"

Could he say he didn't want to go? The first time he had a bad impression.

Magistrate Ma sighed in his heart, and said with a smile, "I'll listen to you, County Magistrate."

"Alright, let's set off later." Liu Zhimo made a decision, "Don't worry, I won't let you lock yourself in the woodshed again."

What else could he say? Since he couldn't say anything, Magistrate Ma just chuckled.

I hope this trip will go smoothly!

Liu Zhimo thought of that case, and frowned. After walking a few steps, he asked Magistrate Ma to go over to the He family to see how Director He was doing. If he continued to be ill, he would have to find someone to replace him.

After hearing this, Magistrate Ma almost shouted County Magistrate's might.

Not to mention the County Magistrate, even he could not stand the sight of Director He getting sick every single day. He needed to take a few days off from the first illness and not even a month had passed to come to the yamen, so what use did the yamen have this kind of history? I might as well change it.

"Yes, Lord, your subordinate will go right away."

Liu Zhimo nodded and instructed Magistrate Ma. Seeing that Director He was fine, he asked him to come to the yamen today and go to Wutong Village together with him.

"Director He wants to go as well?"

"Do you have any objections?"

Magistrate Ma hurriedly shook his head and said that he did not, and humbly asked Liu Zhimo, why did he want Director He to go with him?

Liu Zhimo did not directly answer him. Let him think carefully, why did he bring Director He along?

This question was not difficult. If one were to seriously think about it, one would definitely be able to understand the reason behind it.

Director He did not dare to ask again, afraid that Liu Zhimo would strike another blow to him, he could only lower his head and start thinking.

Why did the County Magistrate want to bring Director He to the Wutong Village?

Walking all the way to the He family's doorstep, Magistrate Ma suddenly realised that the land leased by the Wutong Village villagers was the Wang family's, the relationship between the Wang family and the He family was not bad, and on account of the He family, the Wang family did not dare let the Wutong Village villagers touch Director He.

That's right, he knew what happened last time was related to the Wang Family. Now that Director He was here, let's see if the Wang Family still dared to make a move on them.

Magistrate Ma thought through this point, proudly tidied up his collar, and walked up with large strides. Before the guard could speak, he directly asked for Director He.

The guard recognized Magistrate Ma and asked him to wait. He then went to notify him.

Magistrate Ma acknowledged as he stood at the entrance and waited for half an hour before the guard invited him in.

After going to the Flower Hall, Magistrate Ma sat for a while longer before seeing Director He being supported by Cui Cuicui as he walked in.

"Cough, cough, cough …" Magistrate Ma, you … Cough cough cough … Why would you be free to come? " Director He said, and paused a few times before finishing.

Magistrate Ma raised his eyebrows and looked at Director He. Before he could say anything, Cui Cuicui had already taken the initiative.

"Magistrate Ma, I'm sorry. My master's sickness is a bit severe, I hope you understand."

Magistrate Ma glanced at Director He again, and asked while pretending to be concerned. How did he become so serious?

Director He sat on the chair with much difficulty and coughed a few more times before saying that his body was too weak, he could not do anything about it.

"Director He, you get sick every two or three days like this, it's not a big deal." Magistrate Ma faintly sighed, "When I came here, County Magistrate told me to look for you. How are you? "If you really can't do it, then I'll let you take a good rest at home. If you change someone at the yamen into a canonical history, then the yamen's lack of canonical history will be very troublesome."

What?

Liu Zhimo wanted to replace him?

Director He almost jumped up from his chair, luckily Cui Cuicui quickly held down his hand, her sharp eyes looked at him, telling him not to be impulsive.

One had to know that he was severely ill at the moment. If he jumped up so nimbly, the lie of feigning illness would be exposed.

"Cough, cough, cough …" Director He coughed violently a few more times, wiping away his tears that had been forced out. He glanced up at Magistrate Ma and said weakly: "Magistrate Ma, I'll have to trouble you to go back and tell County Magistrate, I … I will recuperate as soon as possible, and do not let others take my place. " What a joke. If someone else took his place, where would his face go?

If he no longer did history, how could he continue to be an informant?

In order to be an informant, he had to be a part of history.

Magistrate Ma looked to be in a difficult situation, he hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Do you know the current County Magistrate, he is not that easy to talk to?" He paused, "It's really not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I have no way of helping you." Saying so, he let out another heavy sigh, revealing a helpless expression.

Seeing Magistrate Ma like that, Director He gritted his teeth in anger, and after a long while, he finally squeezed out a sentence, "I thought that Magistrate Ma would always be by County Magistrate's side, making him treat you with respect, but who would have known that …" Right now, Magistrate Ma was just a lackey for Liu Zhimo.

Magistrate Ma didn't seem to hear the hidden meaning in Director He's words, as he faintly sighed and said, "There's nothing I can do, for the sake of living." He raised his eyes and looked at Director He with envy, "If I had a family background as good as Director He, I wouldn't have to follow County Magistrate and do things fearlessly all day. I was afraid that if I didn't do things properly, I would offend County Magistrate and make …" Before he could finish, he let out another heavy sigh.

If not for Cui Cuicui desperately pressing down on Director He's hand, he would have jumped up long ago and cursed at Magistrate Ma.

Don't think he will sympathize with him just because you look sad, and believe him. Impossible.

Director He clenched his teeth and forced out a smile, and said with a smile, "How is that possible?" Magistrate Ma, are you the left and right hand of County Magistrate?

"Director He, if you went to the yamen often, you wouldn't have said these words. Didn't you see how pressured I am by the County Magistrate? I can't get home until about midnight, really. It's really bitter! " He had been really busy lately, always working till midnight with the County Magistrate before he could go home and sleep.

Hearing that, Director He felt some sympathy for Magistrate Ma, he had been watched by others before so he knew that Magistrate Ma was busy as a dog.

"Magistrate Ma, County Magistrate is squeezing you like this, why are you so determined to follow him? "Why do you have to go through all this trouble?" As soon as Director He finished speaking, the back of his hand was pinched by Cui Cuicui so hard that he almost gasped from the pain.

He turned his head to look at Cui Cuicui, and seeing the warning in her eyes, he bit on his lips, and did not dare speak anymore.

If he spoke any more nonsense, he wouldn't need his hand.

Pain … It was really painful.

He suspected that the back of his hand had turned purple, but he didn't dare to protest to Cui Cuicui's decision.

If he dared to protest, his fate would be even worse.

He … Back then, he was truly befuddled by the situation and married that wicked woman, Cui Cuicui.

If he knew Cui Cuicui was so spicy, he wouldn't have married her even if she was beaten to death.

Unfortunately … There was no medicine for regret.

Magistrate Ma scoffed in his heart, but he still sighed.

After saying that, he slowly stood up, looked at Director He, and laughed bitterly: "The yamen has a lot of work to do after I return. I won't disturb you anymore, Director He, you rest, I'll head back to the yamen." Don't think that he didn't see Cui Cuicui's actions, he didn't want to expose them.

Director He wasn't sick at all, he was pretending to be sick.

He wanted to see how long he could pretend for.

Director He lowered his head and coughed, then waved to Magistrate Ma, allowing him to walk slowly.

After Magistrate Ma left, Director He's limp body immediately stood up, and he retracted his hand back. Looking at the bruise on the back of his hand, his brows tightly knitted together. How could he do that? Look, there's a big bruise on it, don't you feel sorry for it? " He stretched out his hand and lightly touched it. The pain was excruciating.

He had to wipe the ointment when he returned to his room, or else, who knew when it would dissipate.

This wicked woman was really … He really was a madman.

Cui Cuicui glared at him, poked his forehead with her finger, and said while gnashing her teeth: "If it wasn't for me, you would have been exposed a long time ago." You don't even know how to pretend to be a patient. What a pig's head. "Tell me, when are you going back to the yamen? If you don't go back now, County Magistrate will really kick you out, do you believe me? " Did he really think that the current County Magistrate was still the previous County Magistrate? Let them bully him?

Director He dodged Cui Cuicui's finger, touched his forehead that was in pain, and helplessly said, "I'll be there in two days."

Liu Zhimo threatened him, how could he not go?
