Chapter 156 The Death of the County Magistrate
On the small road in the forest, a group of officials were transporting two large boxes of official silver back to Shengjing City in a carriage. The leader looked around cautiously, paying close attention to the surrounding situation, lest there be any accidents.

Just when the group of people walked into a bamboo forest without any danger, a sharp arrow shot towards the official officer headed by them at high speed, followed by countless sharp arrows.

"There is an ambush!" Only then did the official respond and shout loudly, and then he fell to the ground with an arrow.

"Everyone be careful!" The leading official also shouted hastily, and then hurriedly pulled the reins, the horse raised its front legs in surprise, and let out a deafening neigh, some of the officials also died in these places because they couldn't dodge in time. Under the sharp arrow.

After a while, the sharp arrow finally stopped firing, and the frightened people gradually gathered together.

And at this moment, a man in black turned somersault from the bamboo next to him and jumped to the middle of the road. He looked at the remaining officials and said harshly, "Keep the things behind!"

"Bold lunatics! You are the ones who have robbed and handed over the official money in the past few years!" As soon as the leading officer saw the man in black, he guessed that the culprit who had frequently robbed the official money in the past few years was him, and pointed out angrily. The man in black roared.

"Hmph! You're smart! Over the years, you're the first county magistrate to personally escort the handover of the official bank! This is really rare! Hahaha..." The man in black also recognized the group of deliverers of the official bank at this time The leader is the county magistrate Chen of Tai'an County.

"Brothers, go!" The man in black didn't intend to continue talking nonsense with this very courageous county magistrate, and after laughing, he shouted out his little brother.

There were bursts of noise from the surrounding bamboo forest, and then more men in black emerged from the surrounding bamboo forest one after another.

The rest of the officials watched in horror as the man in black rushed towards them, and retreated from time to time, and the knife that had been drawn out in his hand trembled unsteadily.

When a man in black rushed in front of an official, the official rushed forward with a roar and slammed the knife in his hand, but it was a pity that the reaction and martial arts of the man in black he faced were obvious. Not on the same level as him, the man in black came behind him in a flash, then raised the knife without any delay, and slashed at the official's back, and the official fell to the ground.

Almost the same thing happened to the other officials. This group of men in black had obviously been highly trained. Ordinary officials had no power to fight back against them, and could only fall down one by one.

And the young county magistrate who personally escorted the official silver was facing the first man in black who appeared, and it was obvious that he was also the leader of the group of men in black.

Just as the two were confronting each other, a man in black quietly came behind the county magistrate, and instantly stabbed the magistrate in the back, causing the young magistrate to fall off his horse.

But at this moment, the leader of the man in black took the opportunity to come to the side of the young county magistrate, and stabbed him quickly. The young county magistrate grabbed the blade and wanted to resist, but the man in black would not give him a chance and turned around. After touching the handle of the knife to let the county magistrate let go, it finally stabbed smoothly into the county magistrate's chest.

The county magistrate stared at the man in black with wide eyes the moment the blade pierced his chest, as if he wanted to see his face clearly under the black cloth.

Seeing this, the man in black was not afraid at all. Instead, he smiled coldly, and continued to increase the strength in his hands, until he confirmed that the young county magistrate was dead before releasing the sword that was still held tightly by the county magistrate.

Seeing that the county magistrate was dead, the leading man in black looked at his brothers, and the rest of the men in black also killed the last official at this time.

Seeing that the matter was over, the leader of the man in black ordered his subordinates: "Open the goods for inspection!"

The two men in black walked up to the two boxes of official silver and tore off the seal, and opened the lid. A snowflake of silver was displayed in front of the eyes of all the men in black, and everyone surrounded them with laughter.

……

Soon, a farmer who usually chops firewood passed by in the bamboo forest, and found a group of arresters who had already died. They were so frightened that they ran to the county to report to the officials.

News of County Magistrate Chen's death quickly spread throughout Tai'an County, and his body was moved back to the county government in time by the officials who rushed over.

The officials in the county government office were conducting an autopsy on the county magistrate Chen in the lobby, while the rest of the police officers who had not escorted the official banker were guarding the door to prevent the onlookers from entering and disturbing them.

After inspecting the corpse of County Magistrate Chen, Wu Zuo covered the white cloth back with a heavy expression, and muttered, "How did this happen? How did this happen? It's really terrible!"

"Two days ago, I was still trying to persuade Mr. Chen not to escort the official banker himself, but he...but he just didn't listen!" The master at the side also explained to him regretfully.

"These robbers are really lawless, even the magistrate dared to kill them!" Wu Zuo said with hatred.

"Over the years, the official bank has been robbed by gangsters every time on the way to hand it in. This time Mr. Chen insisted on personally escorting the official banker, saying that he wanted to bring these criminals to justice, but...the result...this... ..." Master replied with a sigh, and finally couldn't speak anymore.

The civilians watching outside the court heard the master's explanation, and one of them sighed: "It's a pity, what a pity! Such a good county magistrate was killed!"

"That's right! He has only been in office for less than three months. I heard that he is going to marry Ma Dashan's daughter in two days, but he is leaving now at such a young age! What a pity!" Someone echoed.

"In less than three years, four county magistrates died in our county, and each of them was shorter than the other. Who else in Tai'an County dares to be the county magistrate now!" Another person read like this.

Everyone nodded in agreement, and then sighed again.

"Everyone, give way! Give way!" A man who looked like a housekeeper shouted to the crowd.

Everyone looked behind one after another, seeing that the Ma Dashan they were talking about was coming, they all took the initiative to get out of the way, and comforted: "My condolences to Master Ma!"

Although Master Ma, who was known by the crowd, had a bitter expression on his face, he nodded apologetically to the comforting voices of the people around him, and followed the butler-like man to the lobby.

When the master saw Master Ma coming, he hurried forward and saluted, "Master Ma, please!"

Then the master led Master Ma to the side of the deceased county magistrate Chen. Master Ma walked over and looked down and said sadly: "How could this happen! How could this be happening! Mr. Chen is a good official who is diligent and caring for the people. What a terrible death! God, you are too unfair to our Tai'an County!"

When the master and Wu Zuo heard the words, they both sighed again and again, not daring to look at Master Ma any more.

And at this moment, another maidservant's voice came from outside: "Everyone, please let me go, the young lady is here!"
