The reason why Immortal County was called this was because the climate of the mountains was suitable for ginseng and other medicinal herbs to grow. Every year, many supreme-grade ginsengs would be discovered. They looked like fat babies, so it was named Immortal County.
Ginseng was expensive and extremely profitable.
The local people relied on the mountain to pick herbs every year. They earned quite a bit and their lives were quite comfortable.
It was not until last year that the county magistrate of Immortal County, Zhang Jiayan, married a concubine. The brother of the concubine, Xu Baisheng, used his power to specially send people to intercept the villagers who had entered the mountain to pick herbs and forced them to hand over all the herbs they had picked.
If someone was unwilling, he would snatch it. If he didn’t like a person who wanted to resist, he would break the other party’s tendons.
The commoners went to the county office to complain about Xu Baisheng, but they were locked up and tortured.
As time passed, no one dared to complain to the government office.
…..
The villagers could only pray that they would not encounter Xu Baisheng and the others before entering the mountain.
More people were afraid that their tendons would be broken, so they could only be forced to change their livelihood.
There were also many people from Immortal County who took the initiative to migrate to the southern frontier.
Wen Renhua knew the growing environment of medicinal herbs very well. It was rare for a person to pick a hundred-year-old ginseng, so Xu Baisheng naturally would not let it go.
After hearing the dark guard’s report, Bai Wutong narrowed her eyes and said with a faint smile, “It’s so interesting to pick people’s tendons. How can one hand be enough?”
Qingfeng understood and immediately brought people to the gathering place where Xu Baisheng was.
More than half of the huge villa was filled with Xu Baisheng’s hired thugs.
The dark guards covered their faces and descended from the sky with swords in their hands.
Sword light flashed, and the thugs who swarmed forward screamed one after another.
When the maidservants saw the blood spurting, they shouted in fear, “Help! Murder!”
When Xu Baisheng heard the loud commotion outside, he hurriedly pushed the woman away and got up to put on his pants.
“Swoosh.” A sharp sword flashed and split open the door.
Xu Baisheng looked up in shock. In the next second, the sword light was already in front of him.
“Ah—I!!!”
After an earth-shattering scream, Xu Baisheng’s hands were bleeding as he shouted in fear, “Hero, spare my life! Hero, spare my life!”
Perhaps his begging had worked, the culprit who had entered the house to commit murder took mercy on him.
In the blink of an eye, they had really disappeared.
Xu Baisheng had survived a calamity. His wrist, which was bleeding profusely, was in unbearable pain. He shouted at the woman on the bed, whose face had turned pale from fright, ‘What are you waiting for? Hurry up and find the best doctor for me! If I’m crippled, I’ll chop off your hands!”
The woman was so frightened that she did not even dare to put on her outer clothes. She scrambled out and witnessed the terrifying scene in the courtyard. Her eyes rolled back and she actually fainted.
The woman fell to the ground with a thud. Xu Baisheng looked over and saw that all the thugs in his manor had their tendons broken like him. They rolled on the ground in pain and wailed.
Such a familiar scene instantly scared him into sweating.
These people were clearly looking for him to take revenge, but why didn’t they take his life?
Were they looking for a way to torture him?
The more Xu Baisheng thought about it, the more afraid he became. He could only shout at the maidservant, who was so frightened that her face was ashen, “Quick, go find County Magistrate Zhang and ask him to personally bring people over! ”
Xu Baisheng dared to be so reckless, not only because his sister had married the Zhang family, but more importantly, he could help the Zhang family earn money.
After intercepting the villagers for more than a year, the gold and silver hidden in Zhang Jiayan’s family had almost filled the entire basement.
If something had happened to Xu Baisheng, he naturally would not sit back and do nothing.
Not long after the maidservant ran out, there was a violent collision sound at the entrance of the villa.
With a loud bang, the door of the villa was broken open. The servants screamed.
Xu Baisheng could not be bothered about his wound that had yet to be bandaged. He quickly hid behind the screen. When he heard the chaotic voices outside, he was so frightened that he did not even dare to breathe loudly. He only dared to curse in his heart. Could this stupid pig Zhang Jiayan hurry up! If he did not come soon, he would lose his life.
“Bang—”
The screen was shattered by an invisible force, and Xu Baisheng’s flustered appearance appeared in front of everyone.
You Huaijie had already obtained evidence of Xu Baisheng bullying and harming the people. He ordered, ‘Take him down!’
Xu Baisheng staggered and sat on the ground. His face was pale as he shouted, “Do you know who I am?! I’m the county magistrate’s brother-in-law. How dare you arrest me? Do you want to die?’
You Huaijie was not wearing the governor’s uniform. Xu Baisheng thought that he was just a hothead.
You Huaijie sneered. ‘What an arrogant tone. I want to see what capabilities you have! ”
Xu Baisheng was tied up and the chain was wrapped around his wound. It was so painful that he couldn’t stop crying. He didn’t dare to say anything else and begged You Huaijie to find a doctor to treat him first.
You Huaijie was indifferent and rewarded him with a sentence. “When you broke the tendons in other people’s hands, they also screamed in pain and lost consciousness, and became crippled.”
Xu Baisheng’s eyes widened in fear as the miserable outcomes of the villagers flashed through his mind. In an instant, he felt a bone-chilling sensation and shouted in despair, “l don’t want to become a cripple! I don’t want to become a cripple! Find me a doctor! Hurry up and find me a doctor!…”
When County Magistrate Zhang received the news from the maidservant, he slapped the table and said angrily, “How dare they! They’d actually dare to attack and injure people in my territory! ‘
The furious Magistrate Zhang sat in a sedan chair and rushed to Xu Baisheng’s villa.
Before he entered the courtyard, You Huaijie heard Magistrate Zhang’s scolding voice. ‘Where did these soldiers come from? How dare you trespass without my permission!”
However, he only said one sentence before he was kicked by the dark guards in a soldier’s disguise. There was a huge muffled sound.
The bailiffs brought by County Magistrate Zhang had been arrogant for many years, but this was the first time they had seen someone even more arrogant than them. When they saw County Magistrate Zhang collapse to the ground, they immediately panicked and even forgot to draw their swords.
Magistrate Zhang took a few breaths before cursing, “Idiot, hurry up and help me up!”
The baliffs pulled up the fat Magistrate Zhang. You Huaijie also came out of the villa at this moment, followed by a group of people whose tendons had been broken and tied up.
When Magistrate Zhang saw Xu Baisheng’s tragic state, he was so frightened that his heart was pounding. He cursed, “Where did you come from?! How dare you slaughter innocent people like this!”
“Hurry up and kneel before me!”
You Huaijie did not even look up. The dark guard who had kicked him previously gave him another fierce kick
With this kick, Magistrate Zhang flew out and smashed the small sedan chair.
County Magistrate Zhang’s bailiff was completely stunned. Why did they start fighting without a word? Shouldn’t they say a few words before starting?!
Magistrate Zhang couldn’t stand up this time. He pointed at You Huaijie with a trembling finger and said with difficulty, “Who… who are you? How dare you. You Huaijie’s eyes lit up as he took out his tablet.
Magistrate Zhang stared at it and muttered in shock, “The Governor of the Southern Frontier!!! ”
‘He’s the governor of the Southern Frontier?’
Why didn’t he even say anything when he was coming here!
When the bailiffs heard the words ‘Governor of the Southern Frontier”, they were so frightened that their hair stood on end. They knelt down with a plop. “Greetings, Governor!!!”
Xu Baisheng was completely dumbfounded.. This person was the governor of the Southern Frontier… It was over… It was over… It was completely over…
