At the beginning, the little koi carp was grabbed by a wolf and became the favorite of the beasts.

Candlelight flickered in the cell.

At this time, a burst of messy footsteps came, and I saw the county magistrate as the leader, followed by several officials, walking in from the outside.

When he reached the middle, the county magistrate stopped. He looked a little ugly, covered his mouth and nose and ordered: "Bring the person out to me."

"Yes, my lord."

After the two officials agreed, they slowly approached the cell where Boss Zheng was.

At this time, there was silence in the cell, and the rats seemed to know in advance, and they all fell silent.

Boss Zheng was too lazy to care about what was happening outside and continued to squat in the corner facing the wall. Nothing good would happen in the cell anyway, so he might as well stay here honestly.

When the officer approached, it was dark inside and he couldn't see clearly the densely packed rats on the ground.

The two opened the cell, knocked on the door with the hilts of their knives, and shouted: "Zheng Mantang, come out quickly, your Excellency wants to re-interrogate..."

Before he finished speaking, the rats inside suddenly started chirping and swarmed towards the two officials.

"Ah~Help~Why are there so many rats!"

The two officers were so frightened that they shouted at the top of their lungs, slapping the rats on their bodies and jumping back.

When the two of them retreated to the middle position, the rats did not pursue them and retreated back into the cell.

"What's going on?" The county magistrate frowned and asked.

"Sir, that cell is full of rats. There's no way we can get in."

"Yes, as soon as we opened the door, those rats pounced on us. If we had run slower, we might have been eaten by them."

The two officers patted their chests and recounted the scene they had just encountered with lingering fear. This was the first time they had seen so many rats in their lives. It was really scary.

The county magistrate didn't take it seriously and said with an unhappy expression: "It's just a few rats, but they scared you like this. You go in together, and you must bring them out today."

The longer it takes, the harder it will be to convict him, so he must deal with it sooner.

Although several officers were reluctant, they had to obey the order.

They drew their sabers from their waists and approached the cell again.

Although Boss Zheng did not turn around, he could clearly hear the conversation outside. I am afraid that they did not let him out for interrogation, but to force a confession.

Only now did he understand the purpose of these rats. They must have come to protect him. Otherwise, if he was taken away by them, he would have to shed his skin even if he died.

Thinking that his good daughter had arranged this, he was so moved that he lowered his head and kissed Xiao Jin and Xiaolan on the head.

Several officers walked to the door of the cell, but they did not dare to go in. They looked at their feet and shouted: "Zheng Mantang, come out quickly. If he doesn't come out, we will go in and kidnap him."

Boss Zheng curled his lips and pretended not to hear. He was not a fool. He walked out of the rat pile and was beaten. If he had the ability, he could just come in and tie him up. Jiji Waiwai.

He has a backer now and is not afraid of anyone.

When several officers saw that there was no movement inside, and they could only see a dark figure in the corner from the door, they couldn't help but said: "There are so many rats in here, will the one named Zheng be eaten by rats?"

"I guess so. If you look at that black shadow, it's motionless. It must have been bitten to death a long time ago."

"Then what should we do? Are we still going in? The rats that eat human flesh must be very vicious. If we go in, we will definitely be chewed up like humans."

"But if you don't go in and bring the person out, can your Excellency agree?"

……

Several people were talking to each other, but no one wanted to take a step forward. There were so many rats, and whoever entered first would suffer.

When Boss Zheng heard their conversation, his shoulders shook with laughter, but he did not dare to make a sound and his face turned red.

If you have the ability, come in and take a look. Standing at the door, you can determine what you are doing.

Several officials hesitated for a long time, but decided to report the situation inside first.

"Sir, there was no movement in the cell. The boy must have been bitten to death by a rat."

"Oh? Are you sure?" The county magistrate narrowed his eagle eyes with a fierce light.

Several officials looked at each other, and no one dared to say anything definite. After all, they had not gone in to check, so how could they dare to confirm directly.

The county magistrate knew what was going on at the first sight and cursed: "You bastard, how dare you fool me. Get all in. Even if you die, you have to pull the body out for me."

He didn't believe that a good person would be easily bitten to death by a mouse.

"Yes, little one, go right here."

When several officers saw that he was getting angry, they didn't dare to say anything and walked back to the cell.

They found a small stone and threw it in tentatively, but still nothing happened.

"Those rats should have escaped, right?"

"How about you go in and take a look?"

"Why don't you go in? Let me in."

"Let's go in together. If we delay any longer, my lord will definitely get angry again."

Several officials were worried and walked directly in. However, after taking only a few steps, their feet felt weak and there was another "chirp".

The rats swarmed up along their boots, and before a few people could get out, they were covered in rats.

"Ah~ Sir, help me!"

"Bite me to death, run!"

"Damn, these mice have become sperm..."

At this time, the sabers in their hands seemed to be of no use at all. A few of them had no time to care about the rats on their bodies and quickly ran out holding their heads.

Several people yelled and ran to the county magistrate, taking the rats with them with them.

They felt the rats crawling and biting on their bodies, and their spirits collapsed. They all rolled and moaned on the ground, hoping to drive away the rats.

These rats are not afraid of people at all and continue to crawl on them after falling to the ground.

The county magistrate was stunned, as if he didn't expect these rats to be so ferocious.

At this time, several rats that fell on the ground targeted him and slipped up directly along his trouser legs without him noticing.

"Come on, what the hell is this? It's climbed up. Get them away quickly."

The county magistrate was so frightened that he clapped and jumped, his voice shrill and harsh.

He didn't really know how powerful these rats were until the moment they crawled on him.

At this moment, all he could think about was 'run', so he couldn't think of interrogating Boss Zheng.

Seeing the county magistrate running out of the cell, several other officials ran outside in a swarm, regardless of whether the mice fell from their bodies.

They don't dare to stay here any longer. When they go back, they will probably be inundated with rats even in their dreams at night.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

When Boss Zheng heard the embarrassment of escaping outside, he couldn't help laughing out loud. It was so relieved.

These bastards should be taught a lesson to see if they dare to use lynching indiscriminately in the future.
