Chapter 502: Wan Laoer became a wanted criminal?
Just as the county magistrate lowered his head to ponder the other party's identity, he heard the soldier next to him exclaim: "Sir, look! That man wants to go up to the city."
The county magistrate immediately looked up and saw that Xiao Qianchou, who had been standing there just now, was actually trying to climb up the wall without him knowing when.
"Release the arrows, release them now!"
The county magistrate could not care about anything else now. This man wanted to force his way into the city on his own, which was a crime and he had the right to shoot him.
Soon, the soldiers hiding behind the city wall raised their bows and arrows and shot arrows at Xiao Qianchou like raindrops.
Xiao Qianchou didn't expect that someone was ambushing him, so he immediately moved back several feet away.
At the same time, his withered hand was like a weapon, and he shot down the arrow shot at his face with his bare hands.
The county magistrate immediately ordered torches to be lit.
In just a moment, a row of torches were lit on the city wall, illuminating the area below as bright as day. However, Xiao Qianchou had retreated so far that the county magistrate still could not see his face clearly.
However, the county magistrate was already shocked by the kung fu displayed by Xiao Qianchou, and he now had to stop this man outside the county.
So the county magistrate immediately ordered: "Come on, pour water on the city wall, the more the better."
Immediately, a team of people organized to fetch water. Because Yunshui County was located between two mountains, if a fire broke out, their county town would be destroyed. Therefore, there were wells everywhere in the county town, and there were two wells at the city gate, ready to put out the fire at any time.
Because in history, there was indeed a fire in Yunshui County, and less than 10% of the county's population survived.
This is also why Yunshui County was later renamed to its current name. It was not called Yunshui County before, but Yangcheng County.
While the soldiers were fetching water, Xiao Qianchou launched a second round of fierce attack, but was forced back into the darkness by the guards on the city wall.
As time passed, age spots appeared on Xiao Qianchou's left hand, but this man had a strange personality and was stubborn. If he wanted to enter through the front door, he had to enter through the front door, and no one could stop him.
This was also the reason why no one could stop him in his hundreds of years of life. His bad habits, which he had developed, now caused him to suffer.
A surge of anger rolled through Xiao Qianchou's heart, but his current position was very unfavorable. He couldn't use his poison even if he wanted to. His advantage was suppressed and he was in a weak position.
Bucket after bucket of water was poured down from the city wall, and soon an ice wall was formed. However, the county magistrate was still not satisfied. He had a hunch that this man was the culprit of the mysterious disappearance case. If it was really him, then he certainly could not let Xiao Qianchou enter the city, otherwise, with his terrifying fighting power, wouldn't the entire city become his slaughterhouse?
"Someone, keep bringing the oil."
The oil poured on the ice completely blocked Xiao Qianchou's way into the city.
No matter how good his martial arts skills were, he still needed some leverage. With the county magistrate doing this, it was impossible for him to attack from the city wall.
Xiao Qianchou stood in the cold wind, heavy snow falling on him. He did not move, like a stone sculpture.
"County Magistrate, what happened to that man? Why didn't he move?"
"Everyone, be alert. This person is too weird. When did our county get into trouble with such a person? I have never heard of this person before."
The county magistrate was also a little confused. Did he have to keep fighting with this guy forever?
It would be fine if we wait until daybreak, when the people outside the city want to enter the city and the people inside the city want to leave, and then we can close the city gates tightly. The safety of the people inside the city will be guaranteed, but what about the people outside the city?
Are we just going to watch him killing people outside the city?
The county magistrate was so anxious that his hair was almost turning bald, but he couldn't think of any way to drive this man away or catch him.
However, the stalemate between Xiao Qianchou and the county magistrate at the South City Gate made things convenient for A Lei.
He brought Fubao back to the city smoothly and avoided the guards perfectly. Most of the guards were transferred to the South Gate, and the guards in other places were relatively weak. For the extraordinary Arei, avoiding their patrols was a piece of cake.
Arei returned to the inn where they were staying with ease.
But the inn was sealed and he couldn't enter through the main gate.
There was also a portrait of Wan Laoer posted at the entrance of the inn, with the words "wanted criminal" written on it.
When Wan Laoer saw the notice, he was petrified on the spot.
How did he become a wanted criminal?
Just at this moment, the door of the inn opened and several bailiffs in constable uniforms walked out.
As soon as they opened the door, they saw a man standing at the door.
"Captain, do you think this person looks familiar?"
"I think I've seen it somewhere, but I'm sure I haven't."
At this time, the shopkeeper sent someone out and saw Wan Laoer at a glance.
"Oh, sir, it's him, he's the murderer, he looks honest, but I didn't expect him to be so vicious, he killed our waiter and knocked out his companion."
The shopkeeper quickly pointed at Wan Laoer and shouted loudly.
The constable also reacted immediately and pounced towards Wan Laoer, who subconsciously wanted to run.
But the snow on the street outside was very deep, he couldn't run, and he was not as skilled as the constable, so he had no choice but to be arrested.
"Sir, you arrested the wrong person. I didn't kill anyone, but I was almost killed."
"You are not a murderer, why are you running?" The captain of the police didn't believe what Wan Laoer said.
"You were the ones who chased me first, sir. If you chase me, then I will run away, right?"
In order to understand the situation, Wan Laoer became more eloquent.
He quickly looked up and around, and found that Arei had disappeared at some point, and even Fubao and Heituan were gone.
It seems that this person has left him alone again?
Wan Laoer felt bitter in his heart, but he didn't dare to say much. If he gave up A Lei at this time, it would definitely cause trouble. If it was found out that A Lei was a Vietnamese, he would be charged with treason and he would not be able to explain himself even if he had a mouth full of mouths.
Wan Laoer was arrested and taken back to the inn.
At this time, the inn was brightly lit, as if it were daytime.
Wan Laoer walked from the darkness into the light. He was still a little dazzled and could not open his eyes for a moment. He lowered his head subconsciously.
"Sir, look at him. He looks like a murderer. He is so guilty that he dares not even look at the corpse."
Wan Laoer didn't even notice that the waiter's body was lying on one side of the lobby.
He heard the shopkeeper's accusation, and then he slowly got used to the light and saw clearly that there was a corpse covered with a white cloth lying on one side of the lobby.
"Sir, don't listen to his nonsense. I lowered my head because it was a bit dazzling coming in from outside. I didn't kill anyone at all."
The shopkeeper ran up and fumbled around Wan Laoer's body, and found the rusty dagger.
"You still say you are not the murderer? What is this? Why do you have a dagger? This is the murder weapon."
Wan Laoer was a little amused and helpless. He remembered that the waiter seemed to have no wounds on his body, and the dagger could not prove anything at all. But he could not say that. Once he said anything about the waiter's body, it would prove that he had seen the waiter's body, which would make it even more difficult to explain.
