Chapter 19
"My lord, it's useless."

"Fart! This official is very useful! You are useless, you bunch of trash! All of you are trash!"

After the fifty sticks were beaten, Mi Xiaoxia stood there unscathed, but the two execution yamen servants were exhausted and out of breath.

As a professional executioner, I have never encountered such a situation in my life.The fifty sticks didn't seem to be hitting people, but it was like hitting iron sheets. Not only did they not hurt Mi Xiaoxia, but they made their arms sore from the shock.

How did they know that Mi Xiaoxia's iron shirt has three layers of protection, let alone fifty sticks, even a hundred sticks would not be able to hurt him.And Mi Xiaoxia is already at the second level of qi training, and the amount of true qi is also abundant.

"How to do it……"

Sitting on it, Liu Jinnian felt a headache when he looked at Mi Xiaoxia standing below.

Originally, he wanted to beat Mi Xiaoxia into a trick, but he didn't expect to meet a tough guy who was not afraid of beating.Now Mi Xiaoxia is stuck below, and he can't kneel down and can't ask for guilt, what does he look like!

"Thankfully no one was watching."

Liu Jinnian felt lucky again, secretly thinking that he was wise and did not hear the case openly, otherwise his face would be embarrassing.

"Troublesome..."

At the same time, Mi Xiaoxia, who looked calm and calm, frowned secretly in his heart.

Although he has an iron shirt to protect his body, he is not really invulnerable. This kind of bluffing trick can only be used for a while. If Liu Jinnian uses other torture tools, he may not be able to do so.

And the most important thing right now is that Liu Jinnian obviously wants to take him as the scapegoat, even though it's a crooked one.As the saying goes, people don't fight with officials, if Liu Jinnian insists on punishing him, Mi Xiaoxia can't justify it.

"Do you want to do it..."

Mi Xiaoxia pondered for a while, he couldn't sit still and wait for death, when he had to, he could only forcefully break out of the county office.With his current cultivation skills, these ordinary government servants can't stop him at all.

But in this way, Mi Xiaoxia's crime may be completely confirmed, and no matter what he says, he will become a wanted fugitive.In this way, how can he enter the imperial court as an official, and how can he complete the task of the second ring to settle down?

"Ugly slave, is there a way to kill this dog official!"

Mi Xiaoxia was annoyed, and communicated with the ugly slave with his mind.As long as everyone except Liu Jinnian, everything will be fine.

"No, Master, it's daytime now."

Chou Nu was embarrassed for a while, and then said.

"And he is wearing an official uniform, holds the official seal of Linjiang County, and is protected by a county's luck. I can't get close to him at all."

"A county's luck..."

This was beyond Mi Xiaoxia's expectation, he didn't expect that being an official would have such benefits.

In fact, if you think about it, you will understand, if the court officials are so easy to harm, how can the Emperor rule the world.

"My lord, how should the suspect be dealt with?"

Neither party spoke, and the magistrate could not help but feel a little embarrassed, and the master next to him couldn't help asking Liu Jinnian in a low voice.

"Forget it, let's go to prison first."

Liu Jinnian sighed and waved his hands in frustration.

He wanted to be accused of Xiaoxia Mi, but he couldn't hold him for a while.Thinking of locking up Mi Xiaoxia first, and then slowly thinking of a way, there will be a way to cure him.

Hearing the word 'imprisoned', Mi Xiaoxia couldn't help frowning.Once you are put in prison, I am afraid that you will not be able to tell clearly, and then the innocence will become guilty.And the longer it drags on, the worse it will be for him.

Mi Xiaoxia moved his fingers quietly, and was about to take out the Fumo Sword and rush out, there was no other way at the moment.At the same time, Mi Xiaoxia opened the small map to observe the escape route for a while.

"Huh, is this?"

To Mi Xiaoxia's surprise, there was actually a copper treasure chest flashing in the back office!

That's right, the county government is the political center of the county, so it's not surprising that there are treasure chests.The small map shows an area with a radius of two miles. Since entering, Mi Xiaoxia has been thinking about how to get out, and even forgot to check the small map.

Mi Xiaoxia has a quirk, he can't walk when he sees a treasure chest.Although the current situation is not good, but that is a copper treasure box, Mi Xiaoxia thought about rushing out now, whether he should go through the back office, and see if there is a chance to get this treasure box.

"My lord! It's not good, my lord!"

At this moment, just as Mi Xiaoxia was about to make a move, there was a burst of panic shouting outside, and then a yamen servant ran in.

"What's the matter! You are yelling, didn't you see that my lord is trying the case!"

Liu Jinnian was upset, and opened his mouth to scold him.The yamen servant was young, and he was reprimanded a few times, but he didn't dare to show the grievance on his face.

"Yes, my lord, the treasury silver in our yamen has been stolen."

The little yamen servant blushed, and said as calmly as possible.

"What did you say!"

Hearing this, Liu Jinnian stood up abruptly, staring at the little yamen servant with wide eyes.

"I said...Ku Yin...was stolen."

The little yamen servant was trembling, and he stammered and whispered.

"Ku Yin, are you talking about the 1 taels for building the dam on the Qiantang River?"

Liu Jinnian's body was shaking a little, and he asked a question in disbelief.

"Yes."

The little yamen servant nodded timidly.

"Oh my God!"

Liu Jinnian only felt his head buzzing, and he fell down on the chair all of a sudden, and almost didn't get up out of breath.

The tide of the Qiantang River was fierce, and the dam fell into disrepair for a long time due to the war. The imperial court allocated Yinliang to repair the dam.Among them, 1 taels of silver were temporarily deposited in Linjiang County for some reason.

But never expected that the money would be stolen.

Losing Ku Yin, Liu Jinnian, as the county magistrate, is enough to escort him to Beijing for questioning!At that time, let alone an official hat, it would be nice if he could save his life!

"Wait! The treasury is well-built and guarded by a large number of officials, how could the treasury silver be stolen!"

Liu Jinnian suddenly remembered and asked quickly.

"Reporting to my lord, the matter is very strange."

The little yamen servant got used to it a little bit, and spoke a lot more fluently.

"The walls and floors of the warehouse, as well as the door locks, are all in good condition, without any signs of damage. The guards guard day and night, and no one dares to relax. But, when the inventory was just counted, Ku Yin was gone..."

"This...how could this be!"

Liu Jinnian was dumbfounded, with an expression of disbelief.

There was only one key to the treasury, and Liu Jinnian kept it with him all the time, and only handed it over to the steward when checking the treasury bank.If there is no key, how is it possible to steal Ku Yin when the treasury is intact?
"Ha ha!"

Just when Liu Jinnian was wondering, suddenly there was a wanton laugh from below, he looked down, it was that Mi Xiaoxia.

"Damn thief! If you still laugh, I will convict you first, and see if you can still laugh!"

The mere suspect dared to mock him, and Liu Jinnian was furious.

"Lord Liu, I'm not laughing at you to ridicule you, but laughing at something you can't understand very well, and you still can't see through it."

Mi Xiaoxia smiled with a mysterious look on his face.

"Can't you understand it better?"

Liu Jinnian was startled, then his eyes lit up, and he asked quickly.

"Could it be that Ku Yin was stolen, do you know who did it!"

"Let me ask you, if the treasury is intact, is there a way to steal the silver from the treasury."

Mi Xiaoxia didn't answer, but asked a rhetorical question.

"Unless there is a key."

Liu Jinnian frowned, wondering if someone was bold enough to secretly distribute the key to the warehouse.

"Well, even if you have the key, there is a way to steal Ku Yin under the heavy guard of the yamen servants."

Mi Xiaoxia smiled, then asked again.

"This...unless the guard and the thief cooperate inside and outside!"

Liu Jinnian thought about it, and there was only this possibility.

But then, before Mi Xiaoxia could ask a question, Liu Jinnian shook his head first.This is impossible, the guards are all arranged in a temporary team, no matter how powerful the thieves are, it is impossible to bribe all the servants.

"Oh, isn't the matter very clear?"

The time was almost up, Mi Xiaoxia sighed pretentiously.

"Say it quickly!"

Liu Jinnian patted the table impatiently, still whetting his appetite at this time.

"Obviously, this matter cannot be done by humans. Therefore, it is not humans who stole Ku Yin, but... ghosts!"

Mi Xiaoxia looked at Liu Jinnian and said seriously.
