Lin Wanxing ate melon seeds while looking at the noisy crowd below.

The madam had to step out and say, "Dear guests, the competition is not over yet. There are more beautiful girls coming up. Don't be anxious. We will select the final winner, and the one with the highest bid will win. Hehehe."

"I understand mom. I want to have Yan, no matter if she is the leader or not."

Lin Wanxing felt that there was no suspense. Even if Huai Yan was not the champion, she was famous!

"Let's go!" Lin Wanxing looked at the noisy crowd below.

I think there will be gains tomorrow.

The next day, it was 5: a.m. in the morning.

Lin Wanxing looked outside and saw that it was still cloudy and rainy, with a gloomy sky.

In a flash, we arrived at the Yu'an River embankment and watched as the water level rose by half overnight, reaching the river bank to a distance nearly the size of a palm.

He frowned and shouted: Green toad and red carp, come out!

After waiting for a while, two guys with bubbles bubbling out of their bodies popped up.

"Master, master, it's bad, there is a huge green dragon below."

"Since his cultivation level was much higher than ours, we didn't dare to get close."

"It's okay, you guys go back to the space first!" Lin Wanxing collected the two little monsters and walked along the river bank. He saw some people busy setting up stalls in the alley.

"Oh, sir, would you like to drink bean curd? Sweet or salty." Listening to the woman's enthusiastic greeting.

Lin Wanxing asked absentmindedly, "Do you know where the lower reaches of the Yu'an River pass?"

"We really don't know. I heard there is a Heyi County, but I don't know anything else!"

Lin Wanxing nodded, feeling restless. He ate breakfast and returned to the inn. He asked the innkeeper how to get to the prefectural government office and took Bing Wu with him.

The people in the yamen were yawning early in the morning, eating crackers and porridge in their hands!

Then two people came in, and Lin Wanxing walked in and greeted them!

He stuffed a half tael of silver into the man's pocket and said, "Sir, is your master here? When will he show up?"

"Why are you asking this?" The ruffian-like bailiff looked at the elegant young man in front of him with vigilance.

"Of course I have something to ask him!"

"Oh, this will take until the morning or evening! Why don't you come back at noon?"

"It's too late. Where is your map?"

"Of course... who are you? The map is open to everyone!"

"Hurry up and leave. Leave quickly. Wait until our master comes to discuss anything else."

Lin Wanxing was threatened by a yamen runner with a knife and forced to retreat.

Bing Wu stepped forward and stopped the bailiff, which frightened him.

But then he became even more annoyed, and called on the yamen runners to surround him.

Lin Wanxing took out a jade token and asked, "Do you recognize this?"

"This is our county princess. Who of you dares to act rashly?" Bing Wu shouted.

Several yamen runners looked at each other immediately, and one of them said with a playful smile: "Can you show me the authenticity?"

Lin Wanxing sneered and put the sign in front of the man's face.

"Look carefully, but don't touch."

The shrewd yamen runner looked at the words "Imperial Bestowal" on it and nodded to the people around him.

He immediately put away the knife and said, "I have been blind and I beg the county lady to forgive me."

She looked at these people's slightly perfunctory attitude and didn't care!

"Get up!"

"Thank you, County Lord!"

"I wonder what brings you here for the first time, my lady?" the shrewd and skinny bailiff stepped forward and asked.

"I don't want to waste time talking to you either. I want to look at the map. The Yu'an River is in danger of overflowing and bursting its banks. Your Excellency the Prefect, don't you have any rules?"

"It happens every year, and nothing happens. You are worrying too much!"

"Besides, our prefect is protected by a dragon, so nothing will happen to him."

"Shut up, County Lady, don't listen to their nonsense. We can't just take the map whenever we want. We have to wait for the master to come and make the decision."

"Then go and call him! If half an incense stick of time passes, I will have to force my way in. After all, I am a county lady appointed by the imperial court, and I cannot enter your prefectural government office. Moreover, I will report your prefect for disrespect."

Someone ran over to report, and Lin Wanxing sat on a chair in the prefectural hall, waiting for someone to come.

Half an hour later, a man with a goatee appeared in the hall.

"I am the prefect's advisor. Feng Wei is here to see the county lady. I heard that the county lady wants to look at the map?"

"Yes, Master Feng, what do you think?"

"I am not worthy of your advice, but the map is of great importance and requires the approval of our prefect."

"Oh, then when will your prefect show up?"

"Well, it's hard to say. Our master has a lot of things to do every day, so he is naturally very busy!"

Lin Wanxing sat lazily in the lobby and smiled wickedly.

"Your master is probably quite busy, but he may not be so busy!"

"I heard that your master is blessed by a dragon, and he dreams of dragons every year. I wonder how he is blessed, Master Feng, do you know?"

"That is true. Every year the dragon meets our master in his dreams. He has a great time talking to us and even invites us to drink nectar and watch the mermaids sing and dance."

"That's why our master can remain youthful and healthy for 10 years."

Hahaha. . .

Lin Wanxing slapped the table and laughed out loud.

Master Feng was speaking with great joy, as if he had seen a vision from a god, and was filled with pride.

He shut up in disappointment after hearing Lin Wanxing's smile.

"Master Feng, it's a waste of your talent if you don't tell stories. Your story is well-written, but only you know whether it's true or not!"

"It seems that this county lady will not be able to see the map unless she sees the prefect. How many soldiers do you have here?"

"What is the county lord going to do?"

"Of course, we need to gather people to organize flood control to prevent the Yu'an River from breaking through the embankment and harming the lives of people downstream!"

As Lin Wanxing spoke, he walked step by step to Master Feng, who was full of excuses and nonsense.

"Please forgive me for being blunt, County Lady. This is not something under your jurisdiction, and it is not something you should ask about!"

"You don't have the right to do so. Besides, our prefect is protected by a dragon, so how could a flood break the dam?"

Looking at Master Feng's arrogant look, he sneered.

"Oh, then I must take care of it!" Lin Wanxing pulled out the long knife from the yamen runner next to him and put it on Master Feng's neck.

"Can I look at the map now?"

"You, even though you are the county lord, you cannot threaten me like this!"

If it weren't for the way his goatee was shaking so violently, I would have thought he was not afraid of death.

"I can. It doesn't matter if I kill you. The blade with added force immediately cut Master Feng's neck, and red blood slid down the tip of the knife."

"No, no, please spare my life, Princess. I'll send someone to get it right away!" He begged for mercy in a crying voice.

"He pulled a key from his waist and handed it to the yamen runner beside him."

Lin Wanxing dropped the knife only after he got the cowhide map. Master Feng instantly fell to the ground.

He secretly glanced at the person holding the map, and was supported by someone who said, "County Master, I will go and bandage it!"

After saying that, he slipped away quickly.

Looking at the Yu'an River on the map, it is divided into three tributaries, one of which is the main line. It can be seen that the counties and villages closest to Jinhe City will be flooded first due to heavy rain. Qinghe County is one of them, but there is a county in between.

But if the people downstream cannot stop it, Qinghe County may not be spared.

There are tens of thousands of people along the way. I wonder how the dam downstream is being repaired.

Suddenly, there was a loud thunder outside the house, and the rain started to get heavier.

No, this can't go on! Lin Wanxing's bad premonition became stronger and stronger.

Suddenly, a group of soldiers rushed in from outside, each holding a sword and surrounding the government office.

"It was this man who broke into the government office, injured people for no reason, stole the map, and killed her!"

Master Feng retorted and looked at Lin Wanxing viciously.

Haha, very good! This is a plan to kill someone with a borrowed knife!

A group of officers and soldiers rushed forward and chopped with knives!

Bing Wu held up his sword and began to resist the attack: "Are you planning to rebel early?"

Lin Wanxing waved his hand and sent out a ray of light, instantly knocking over all the people who were rushing towards him.

In the blink of an eye, she came to Master Feng who was hiding behind, and smashed the collar of his clothes that she grabbed onto the table, causing the table to move rapidly backwards, making a harsh friction sound.

"He instructed you to kill me, but did he tell you my identity? Are you guys planning to kill my whole family?"

The soldier who fell to the ground stood up, holding his chest, and looked at Lin Wanxing in fear with a knife in his hand.

"This county lady is in a bad mood right now. Someone rebelled and dared to blatantly murder the second-rank county lady. It seems that you are tired of living."

"Then I'll grant your wish!" He drew his sword and slashed it in one go.

With a thud, Master Feng, who had just stood up and had not yet stood firmly, had his head slip from his neck, hit the ground, bounced a bit, and landed at the feet of a yamen runner.

Ah... Someone's dead! The frightened yamen runner kicked Master Feng's head away. The surrounding yamen runners were so scared that they stepped back and fell to the ground. They were horrified to see blood spurting out of Master Feng's skull without a head.

Master Feng, who turned around, seemed to still be conscious, with fear in his eyes, looking at his body in disbelief.

Suddenly, a strong smell of blood came from the room, and some people began to retch, their faces turning pale with fear.

Lin Wanxing looked around coldly and said: Who else dares to stop me?

The entire government office fell silent. He looked at the soldier opposite and asked: What's your name?

"My name is Huai Qi! I'm a centurion."

"Very good, now listen to my orders, and I won't report you for treason!"

"Please give me your instructions, County Lord!"

"Two people form a team of 20 people, beating gongs and drums to organize people and fill sandbags to prepare for flood prevention and disaster relief."

"Organize as many people as you can. Everyone must gather by the Yu'an River in half an hour. Do you understand?"

"If you don't want your family to be flooded, be careful!"

"Yes, I understand. But how do I explain this to the prefect?"

Don't worry about this. I will personally deliver a still warm human head to your master. I think he will be very surprised!

The officers and soldiers who clasped their fists swallowed their saliva in fear and dared not speak!

Whoever wants such a surprise, go ahead!

"Little one, I'll do it right away!" After saying that, he retreated, pushing and shoving each other and running faster than a rabbit.

"Bing Wu, wrap up the head, let's go and deliver the gift!"

The yamen runners who were hiding were all trembling with fear, and the clever ones had already gone to inform the police.

But how could he be faster than Lin Wanxing?
