The three sycophants even pulled at her arms and rolled up their sleeves; they had come all this way just to catch the eldest daughter of the Song family.
Master Xue said that everyone would receive a reward of ten taels of silver if they brought Song Liyun back.
Before the three of them could even step onto the eaves, a dark figure suddenly darted out from behind Yun Niangzi.
That thing had an amazing jumping ability; it leaped upwards and landed directly on the shoulder of the person running in front.
The man had no idea what was happening; he only felt a sudden darkness before his eyes and a sharp pain in his head that made him scream in agony.
Beside him, the two men were stunned by what they saw. The leader's entire scalp had been ripped off, revealing the bare white bone from the roots of his hair. In an instant, blood gushed down his face like a fountain.
Having landed a successful blow, Black Gold immediately jumped back to Yun Niangzi's side, baring its teeth at the remaining two.
Black Gold only calmed down after seeing blood.
Song Liyun has now put a restraint on it. Without its master's command, it can only injure people, not kill them indiscriminately. Otherwise, it would have gouged out its eyes just now.
Seeing the black, gold, bloody maw with its sharp teeth, the three henchmen were terrified. They didn't grab anyone, but turned and ran, shouting as they ran, "Monster killing people! Monster killing people! There's a monster!"
The injured man was at the back and had no idea what had happened.
I was so scared that my liver and gallbladder were about to burst. I felt a cold, painful sensation on the top of my head, and my face was sticky and wet, as if I was sweating.
While the group was still fighting in the front yard, three people came running out of the side yard in a panic.
As soon as Constable Jiang turned around, he saw a blood-soaked man rushing out, his scalp ripped off and flapping wildly as he ran.
"Oh my god! Mother!"
They skinned people alive!
Song Lao Er had never seen anything so terrifying before, and he was so frightened that his eyes rolled back and he lay on the ground.
Jiang, the head constable, and the other two constables were also frightened by the blood-red gourd-like man. They were distracted for a moment and were then subdued by Han Ming and Xue Zhuang.
"Brothers, I urge you to calm down. My boss is a law-abiding citizen and would never do something like marriage fraud or theft. Is there some misunderstanding here?"
Han Ming ignored the bloodied man and first took off the constable's belt and tied his hands tightly.
Han Ming and his men did not intend to kill the three government officials; they only wanted to stop them and prevent them from arresting Song Zhenping and his brother.
Jiang, the head constable, was a prominent figure in Songfeng County and was highly regarded by the county magistrate, which is why he came to Suijin Town to arrest the fugitive.
The fugitive is right in front of you, and you're being tied up and told to "calm down." How can you stay calm in this kind of humiliation?
He spat and roared, "The imperial law stipulates: anyone who dares to assault a public servant shall be punished with eighty strokes of the cane and exiled three thousand li. You can all just wait to die!"
Han Ming chuckled: "No need for you to worry about that, officer. If you can't go back, the punishment definitely won't fall on me!"
Han Ming was originally a runaway slave who had spent many years hiding and running away.
He didn't care about the exile that others feared.
Maybe he'll just follow his master to the grasslands and never return to the Wu Dynasty, where he can still drink and eat heartily.
Seeing that Han Ming showed no fear, Constable Jiang broke out in a cold sweat.
Only then did he realize that Broken Gold Town was no ordinary place; the survivors here were all sand workers who had escaped death in the massacre years ago.
A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle; threatening a desperate man will only hasten his own demise.
"Good sir, let's talk this out. We're just government employees, we have no choice in the matter."
Officer Jiang chickened out and immediately gave in, pleading with them.
At this moment, screams and wails filled the courtyard, along with the sounds of fighting.
Song Lizheng, Song Dekui, and the Song brothers, Zhenping and Song Lizheng, were sitting inside talking.
After not seeing each other for a year, everyone wanted to find out some things.
Song Lizheng said with a bitter expression, "Daping, I was the one who wronged you brothers in the past, causing you to suffer."
No one wanted to talk about the past; Song Zhenping would have nightmares whenever he thought about it.
Xiao An shouted, "Uncle, don't say it! Don't say it! I'm not going back!"
Hearing Xiao An say she wasn't going back, Song Lizheng's face grew even more bitter: "How can the government let you off the hook?"
Although only three constables came from Songfeng County, they brought along accomplices to assist in the investigation.
All government offices are one family. As long as Constable Jiang sends the documents to the county government office here, the county government office in Qili will take action to arrest people.
Song Zhenping's face was frighteningly pale. He gritted his teeth and said, "If you insist on framing me for colluding with thieves, I'll take the blame myself."
When he heard Song Dekui say that his second uncle's house had been completely looted and that even the woodpile had been taken away, he fully understood where the things in Yun'er's treasure bag came from when he first arrived in Suijin Town.
Those familiar hoes and clothes were not from the treasure bag at all.
The so-called theft was actually collected by the second sister using her treasure bag; the thief was Yun'er.
Song Zhenping was both shocked and frightened; those farm tools and cabinets were still in Baolin Residence.
If the authorities come to search the place, they will definitely find out and confirm the theft.
But he couldn't say those words.
He gritted his teeth, determined that if his second uncle discovered the missing items, he would admit to theft and take full responsibility.
Whether it's imprisonment or exile, as long as Yun'er and Xiao An are safe and sound, that's all that matters.
But before that, he needs to settle Yun'er's marriage.
The village headman said that after Yun'er ran away with him, Master Xue came to demand her back with the indenture.
As a result, Song Liyun escaped, and Song Shuirong was arrested to pay off her debts.
Although they lived a life of luxury and luxury, life was very hard following an old pervert who was practically buried in the ground.
Song Zhenping showed no sympathy whatsoever.
Song Shuirong had always dreamed of a life with good food, good drink, and being waited on, and this was a dream come true.
