Dad, we are so stable, should we do something?

"Ms. Xing'er, I am doing this for you. Look how much I have sacrificed."

"Yes, yes, Brother Gao Xi has made an invaluable contribution. Are we ready to start?"

"Ah."

Tian Xing'er ordered people to drag Ma Guanshi away. In fact, they had started planning it soon after Gao Xi met Tian Xing'er.

They had known about Manager Ma for a long time, because Gao Xi had already investigated and found that his target was Prefect Yan and Manager Ma. Gao Xi's sister was killed by Manager Ma's son, and his parents were also beaten by people hired by them.

He was out for revenge. Gao Xi originally wanted to go to the provincial capital, but later he heard that the man surnamed Ma went to Shu County, and it was because of the man surnamed Ma that County Magistrate Tian had been away and had rarely returned.

Because Gao Xi had always lived in the county government office, an ordinary person like him had no chance to go to the county government office, and he didn't even have the ability to apply to be a constable.

Finally, he found out that Magistrate Tian had a daughter who was on the way to Shu County. Their chance encounter was also designed. Gao Xi originally thought that Tian Xing'er was a little girl who was easy to fool, but he didn't expect that there were so many knowledgeable experts around her.

Gao Xi was exposed on the way to Shu County, so he told everything, which led to today's drama.

They put Manager Ma into a dark room and opened small gaps around the room to form beams of light that shone into the room. A row of ghosts stood on both sides of the hall, and at the top was Tian Zhenwei, who was dressed as the King of Hell.

"Wake him up."

"It's Lord Yan."

Manager Ma vaguely heard voices while he was dizzy and thought he was dreaming until he was forcibly awakened. "The King of Hell is asking you questions, and you dare not answer." The voice came from a man dressed as a bull head.

“Ah…” As soon as Manager Ma opened his eyes, he saw a bull head facing him. The big eyes blinked, which frightened him to faint again.

"Let me take over. You're too scary." Then Bai Wuchang with his long tongue stretched out went over to wake the man up.

"Ah." Manager Ma felt dizzy again and wanted to faint, but Bai Wuchang did not let him do so and directly pressed on his philtrum.

"Don't pretend to be dead. You are going to be convicted now. Confess honestly. If you don't, the Lord of Hell will send you directly to the eighteenth level of hell and make you suffer all the pain in those eighteen levels."

"Hehe, yes, the Eighteen Levels of Hell are great. I like it most when people go to the lower nine levels. The mountain of knives will cut people into thin slices, and the sea of ​​fire will roast their flesh, but they just can't die. Don't you think it's fun?" A ghost with a long face and white bones said as he approached Manager Ma.

At this time, Manager Ma was so frightened that he lost control of his bladder, but he was completely unaware of it. He wanted to faint, but for some reason he was unusually lucid.

Then he saw that blood seemed to be flowing out of his body.

"Hurry up and confess what you have done. If you conceal anything, you will suffer in the eighteen levels of hell for eternity and will never be reborn as a human.

As long as you haven't killed too many people and confess the truth, the Lord of Hell will reduce your guilt appropriately and let you suffer less in hell." The fang-faced Black Impermanence scolded in a stern voice.

"Okay, I'll tell you everything. Please forgive me, Lord Yan. I'll tell you everything and won't hide anything." Manager Ma was so scared that he kowtowed to Lord Yan immediately.

He told all the bad things he had done over the years in one breath, and all the things that Prefect Yan had asked him to do. He also revealed all the spies that the prefect had planted in various counties and how they collected famous cosmetics and creams.

"Come on, let him put his fingerprints on it, and that will convict him."

Hei Wuchang then presented everything he had just written down to Manager Ma and asked him to sign and put his fingerprints on it.

Then a gust of wind blew by and Manager Ma fainted again. But before he fainted, he seemed to hear the Lord of Hell say that if he committed another crime, his life span would be further reduced and he would go to a higher level of hell.

Suddenly a strong wind blew open Tian Xing'er's door, and Manager Ma woke up immediately with fright, "What happened to me? Where am I?"

He looked around in panic. He half sat on the floor. It was Tian Xing'er's room. He opened the bottom of the bed. "Have I been here all along?"

Manager Ma could no longer tell whether it was a dream or reality. He rolled up his sleeves and looked at his clothes again. Nothing had changed. The clothes were the same as they were in the morning, except for a stain on it, which was caused by a servant when he came in. There were no wounds on his hands. Nothing had changed.

But the manager felt extremely scared. He didn't dare to stay in this room any longer. He didn't care whether there were any clues here. He just wanted to leave and finally leave the county government office immediately.

Everything was so weird today. The people in the government office were still having diarrhea and it seemed like they hadn't recovered yet. Everything was still smelly. Yes, it was smelly, but he didn't smell anything just now. Was that dream real?

No matter how many levels of hell he has to endure, will his life span still be shortened?

Is it Lord Yama who is warning him? It must be like this, otherwise how could such a thing happen in broad daylight?

Because he walked too fast and did not see the big rock on the ground clearly, he tripped and hit his head on the rock. He felt he could avoid it, but he did not, and saw himself hitting it. He thought this must be a warning from the King of Hell, and then he fainted.

"Manager Ma, Manager Ma," the servant kept calling out.

When Manager Ma woke up again, he was already in his room, with servants serving him.

But at this moment he had only one thought: to leave immediately, right away.

He got out of bed and said to the servants, "Pack up quickly, we will go back to the city right away, right now, right away."

"Master, didn't the prefect tell you to stay here? Can you just go back now?"

"Stop talking nonsense. Am I the master, or are you? So hurry up and pack up."

Manager Ma got angry and the servants didn't dare to say anything. They quickly packed up their things. Fortunately, it was not yet noon and they could hurry on their journey. He no longer cared about the people from the Tian family. He took the servants with him, packed up his things, got on the carriage and left directly from the back door of the county government office.

"Look, second brother, he left on his own accord. It wasn't at our request. You can't blame us for his leaving." Tian Xing'er and his two siblings stood at the door and watched Steward Ma's carriage going away.

"Well, we have the testimony now. As long as we gather the evidence, we won't have to be afraid of the prefect."

"Do you want to praise me, your sister?"

"My eldest sister is really amazing. But I am a little worried that the prefect will find out that it was us who did it and destroy the evidence in advance."

"Then let's collect evidence while thinking of other ways to deal with him. I don't believe it. By the way, it mentioned a noble man. How did Dad get into trouble with such a big shot? He has to come all the way here to deal with him."

"We'll have to wait until Dad comes back to ask him. I'll write a letter to ask him to come back first."

"Uncle Zhenwei, we have to rely on you to deal with those people in Shu County. They are all shameful anyway, so we are not afraid of them disappearing suddenly, and no one will care."

"Don't worry, I'm here for you."

Soon, Tian Zhenwei and his men eliminated all the spies hiding in Shu County. These people were not important people and did not know much, but they did know that the reason why Shu County had not had another county magistrate for many years was probably because of Prefect Yan.

He was quite ambitious. On the surface, he seemed to care about nothing and do nothing. The city was in a dilapidated state. But behind the scenes, he did a lot of things. Because this place was poor and there were not many people, there were actually quite a few people in the past. But since the arrival of Prefect Yan, the number of talented people here began to decrease.

In the past, there would always be people coming here to recruit workers every once in a while, saying there was a big job, but they would only go to a few villages to notify them this time, and then go to a few other villages next time, so not many people paid attention. Later, there were fewer and fewer people, and everyone realized that the people who went there rarely came back. Now it has been 5 years, and everyone thinks they must have died outside.

It was only in the past six months since County Magistrate Tian came that I haven’t seen any recruitment officials. Otherwise, they would only come once every six months.

This was also partly the reason why County Magistrate Tian had been checking the population in the countryside. He didn't notice it at first, thinking that everyone moved away because they were too poor and had no way to make a living. But later he found that there were more people in each village, and something seemed to be wrong.

Now that Manager Ma has confessed, County Magistrate Tian and his men have new things to do.

"Master, there's a message from the county government asking you to go back early." The servant of the Tian family came to the field and called Magistrate Tian.
