Tan Tianyu still had to ask, Wu Bai had already opened the mouth, and said to Xiao Zimo: "My lord, I will tie up these bandits on the ground first, and then I will hand them over to you to deal with them."

"Okay." Xiao Zimo agreed.

After a while, Wu Bai neatly tied up all these people, and even used these socks to gag their mouths.

"My lord, I counted them carefully. There are 26 of them in total. What should we do next?" Wu Bai looked at Xiao Zimo and asked.

Xiao Zimo glanced at his two carriages, thought for a moment, looked at Tan Tianyu, and said politely: "I don't know what is the name of this young master?"

Tan Tianyu hurriedly replied: "My surname is Tan and my name is Tianyu. Your Excellency may call me Tianyu."

"Well, Mr. Tan, can I trouble you to help send these bandits to the county government?" Xiao Zimo asked.

Tan Tianyu's expression changed, and he regained his composure and said, "Tan is obliged to do things for you."

After arranging these bandits, Xiao Zimo walked to the carriage behind, opened the curtain, and saw three people hugging each other, trembling.

It was Xiao's father, Xiao's mother and the coachman. The coachman was hired by Xiao Zimo, not a servant of his family. It is not surprising to hide when things happen, and Xiao Zimo was not surprised either.

Sensing that someone opened the curtain, Father Xiao looked outside tremblingly. When he found out that it was Xiao Zimo, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Son, what's going on outside?"

Seeing them like this, Xiao Zimo comforted: "The bandits outside have been dealt with, you don't have to worry, we will continue on our way."

Hearing Xiao Zimo say that he could continue on his way, the coachman slowly let go of his hugging hands, slowly came to the door of the car, poked his head out to look out, and found that the bandits were tied up, so he was completely relieved and sat down. Go to the shaft of the car and wait for the road.

Xiao's father and Xiao's mother were terribly frightened this time, and they were still stiff at the moment, so they didn't come out to have a look, and they still sat where they were, but they still breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

Seeing them like this, Xiao Zimo didn't say anything, and silently put down the curtain of the car, walked to the car in front, and told the driver who also hid under the car to come out and hurry.

The coachman saw Wu Bai knocking down those bandits to the ground. At that time, he didn't hide under the car. Later, he heard Tan Tianyu's horseshoes. It was the companion of the bandits, who suspected that Wu Bai could not handle it alone, so he hid under the car.

It's safe now, even if Xiao Zimo didn't order him, he still planned to come out.

Wu Bai followed Xiao Zimo into his carriage, and when the group got ready, Xiao Zimo gave orders, and the carriage started to run slowly.

As for the bandits, Tan Tianyu and the others each took one and threw it on the horse's back, easily solving the problem of Xiao Zimo's lack of manpower.

A group of people rode horses, and those who rode in carriages were not slow, and they arrived in Puchang County soon.

At the gate of the county government office, Xiao Zimo took out a document to prove his identity as the county magistrate. The magistrate identified the authenticity of the document and found it to be true, so he immediately wanted to welcome Xiao Zimo in.

Xiao Zimo waved his hand and said: "No hurry, you find some people to put these bandits in prison first."

When the county magistrate heard this, he didn't dare to delay, and quickly called a few yamen servants over, and personally led them to put these bandits into prison.

When the county magistrate took him away, Xiao Zimo turned to Tan Tianyu and said, "Thank you Mr. Tan this time, I will be the host another day, and I will treat you to a drink."

"Tan doesn't dare to take the credit, but it's an honor for Tan to be invited by an adult to drink. Tan is very happy and waits for the good news." Tan Tianyu replied with a smile on his face.

After finishing speaking, he led a group of his men on horseback, turned and left.

However, as soon as he turned the horse's head, the smile on Tan Tianyu's face couldn't hold back anymore, and he collapsed all of a sudden.

When he got home, Tan Tianyu lost his temper and broke many good things. The anger in his heart still couldn't be calmed down, so he rode out alone and went to Xushan Village.

Here, Xiao Zimo helped Xiao's father and Xiao's mother out of the carriage, and they were completely relieved when they saw the gate of the county government office.

Mother Xiao saw that there was a strange little brother beside her son, and asked, "Son, who is this?"

Xiao Zimo replied: "Mother, this is the person who knocked down the bandits and saved our lives just now, his name is..."

"My name is Wu Bai, ma'am, you can just call me Brother Bai." Wu Bai quickly took over the conversation and introduced himself.

Hearing from his son that it was such a thin and slender brother who rescued them, Father Xiao and Mother Xiao couldn't believe it.

The coachman who followed Xiao Zimo in the same carriage testified, saying that Wu Bai's whip technique is very good, and one whip can knock down several bandits. As he said, the coachman pointed to the cane whip wrapped around Wu Bai's waist .

Only then did the old couple dare to believe that this little brother Wu Bai really saved their lives, and they kept saying thank you.

"You're welcome, you're welcome." Wu Bai waved his hand in embarrassment after being thanked.

Seeing Wu Bai's embarrassment, Xiao Zimo quickly changed the subject: "Okay, Dad, Mom, it's getting late, let's go in quickly, pack up our things, and settle down as soon as possible."

"Yes, yes, we know." The two replied.

So the group of them, including the two coachmen, started to take things and luggage from the back of the carriage.

Wu Bai was not easy to watch, so he also stepped forward to help them move things together.

It just so happened that the group of yamen guards came back and saw them moving things, so they hurried over to help move them. There were so many people and strength, and they moved everything into the backyard of the government yamen in one trip. Of course, this was also because their things were originally For the sake of less.

Xiao Zimo was a farmer in this life. He worked hard in the imperial examinations and finally passed the imperial examination. Before he could take the palace examination, he was retaliated against by a minister of the court because he refused to be listed as a son-in-law. He was directly assigned by the official department. Go to Puchang County to be the county magistrate.

Fortunately, the reason why Xiao Zimo worked so hard to take the imperial examination was just to hope that his parents would live a good life. Now that he is a county magistrate, he can also let his parents live a good life without having to plan food in the fields, so Xiao Zimo does not regret it , An Xin brought her parents to Puchang County.

Their family was not well-to-do, and naturally they had few things. Now that they had finished moving things, Xiao Zimo ordered the yamen servants to go down first.

As for the two coachmen, the one who drove Xiao Zimo was a book boy who had money to buy after he was admitted to Juren. The other party could drive a carriage, and he could also be used as a coachman when he went out. They paid money to rent it in the capital, and the other party will rest in the mansion for one night today, and will leave by himself tomorrow.

After arranging the room for his parents, Xiao Zimo asked Wu Bai: "Brother Bai, can you be my guard for a while?" Worried that Wu Bai would disagree, Xiao Zimo said again: "I will give You pay your wages."

Now that he knew that Wu Bai was actually homeless and was kicked out of the village, and a younger brother of the other party was wandering alone, he was really worried, so he had to find a way to let Wu Bai stay.

Naturally, Wu Bai had nothing to do, so he nodded and agreed immediately.

The next day, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother didn't see Wu Bai, and thought he had already left, so they asked Xiao Zimo, "Where did that brother Bai go, do you know?"

"He's packing his things in his room, and he's not free to come over for now, do you want to see him?" Xiao Zimo replied along the lines.

"What, you mean he's still in the county office?" Mother Xiao was a little surprised.

Xiao Zimo nodded, and said: "This brother Bai is good at martial arts. I have already hired him as my bodyguard. Of course he will stay."

"Oh, that's right." Mother Xiao nodded to express her understanding.

The two of them were still discussing how to repay Wu Bai's life-saving grace just now, but now it's all over, Wu Bai stays in the county government, then they can repay each other well.

"Has he eaten yet? If not, go ask him to come and eat with us." Mother Xiao said.

"He got up early and had already eaten. He shouldn't be hungry right now. Mother, you can eat first. I still have things to deal with. If you need anything, I can ask Ping Gui to buy it for you, or you want If you want to go shopping, you can ask Ping Gui to go with you and let him carry things for you." Xiao Zimo replied.

"Let Pinggui follow us? What about you, how can you come here alone?" Father Xiao shook his head, refusing to agree.

"Don't worry, Wu Bai is following me. I can ask him to help me if I have something to do." Xiao Zimo looked up and replied while sorting out his documents, and finally remembered something, and said seriously: "Father, mother, yesterday Wu Bai helped me." You don’t want to talk about us defeating bandits, remember to warn Pinggui later.”

"Why don't you let me talk about it?" Xiao's father and Xiao's mother felt a little strange that he was so powerful that no one was allowed to talk about it.

"Brother Bai, after all, he is a little brother. If others know that he is really good at fighting, how will he look at him in the future? He just saved us on the front foot, and we ended up telling him that he can fight on the back foot , then who have we become, right?" Xiao Zimo analyzed and explained.

In fact, his intuition told him that it was not because of this reason that Wu Bai concealed the fact that he knew martial arts, but since Wu Bai wanted to conceal it, he naturally had to help him completely conceal it.

Sure enough, upon hearing his son's analysis, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother also felt that what he said was quite right. He just helped them, and they discussed repaying him, but they couldn't harm him, so they both nodded and agreed to keep it secret, and said Will warn Pinggui to keep it secret.

After they agreed, Xiao Zimo put on his official hat and came to the front office.

When he arrived, Wu Bai was already waiting for him in the front hall. Apart from Wu Bai, the county magistrate was also waiting here, but Xiao Zimo didn't seem to see the county magistrate, so he greeted Wu Bai first , Only then did I find that the county magistrate was also present.

In the eyes of the county magistrate, this is just Xiao Zimo's new official taking office as three fires, and he wants to use him to gain power.

It's a pity that Xiao Zimo really didn't see him, and only discovered him later.

The county magistrate took out the official documents he had handled during this time and handed them to Xiao Zimo with a bad expression, and then Hou Li stood aside and did not speak.

Seeing that his expression was not good, Xiao Zimo raised his eyebrows and understood why the other party was angry, but he didn't explain, so the county magistrate misunderstood him. After all, he was new here, if he behaved well and talked well, maybe the local snakes like the county magistrate would think that I am easy to bully myself.
