Chapter 295: The Bastard Wang Ba

Guan Chibei retracted his yin energy and remained calm. Wang Ba stood up from the ground in a daze. Why could he suddenly get up now?

He had been feeling inexplicably weak just now.

“Did you bring people to create trouble and damage this stall owner’s items?!” Lin Yuchen asked Brother Ba on the spot.

Since these things happened, it was best to interrogate them on the spot. It was because many people present saw it with their own eyes, so they couldn’t deny it.

Brother Ba’s eyes flickered and he hurriedly looked at that official as if seeking help.

That official was indeed protecting his relatives. Furthermore, this also concerned his power and influence. He gritted his teeth and stepped forward to say to Lin Yuchen, “County Magistrate, we can’t just listen to their side of the story. Most of the people who can set up a stall day and night are farmers. They might even be from the mountains. It’s not impossible for them to extort money from others…”

Lin Yuchen frowned. “I know this brother. They are indeed from the mountains, but his archery is superb. He can kill wild wolves and fierce tigers on the spot. How would he lack money? You don’t know the truth, so don’t talk nonsense.”

The words that the official said to slander the poor were stuck in his mouth.

Wang Ba, who had heard everything clearly, opened his mouth wide in shock. What?! This man’s archery was superb. He could even kill living wolves and fierce tigers?!

The surrounding people were in an uproar. He couldn’t be that powerful, right?! Tigers and wolves in the wilderness were very terrifying! They didn’t mess around!

However, Lin Yuchen had personally gone to Yunwu Village to investigate these things. He waved his hand to dismiss the official and asked the surrounding commoners who had seen what had happened.

“Can someone come out to say what truly happened just now?”

The official’s expression froze and was very ugly. In the past, he had always relied on his identity as an official to be very powerful outside. Of course, this had never happened in front of County Magistrate Lin Yuchen.

This was the first time that his identity as an official was nothing in front of the county magistrate.

There were many people at the docks. Apart from the local citizens, there were also many merchants who temporarily stopped at Yuan City. They would leave in a day or two, so there was no need for them to be afraid of Brother Ba and the rest taking revenge.

Therefore, someone also said, “County Magistrate, this woman didn’t lie. It was this group of men who came over to find fault. They even said that the recipe belonged to him. I’ve seen many people like this outside. They just find a reason to forcefully take someone else’s things. If the recipe really belongs to him, how can a bully like him let others have it?!”

Trading merchants who wandered around often saw many things. They were also scheming and could tell what was going on immediately.

Another person said the same.

With the evidence and witnesses present, there was no need to say anything else. Lin Yuchen ordered, “Men, bring Wang Ba and the rest back to the authorities. They will be detained and interrogated in the afternoon!”

“County Magistrate, I have something to say!”

Everyone instinctively looked over at Ye Lulu’s crisp cry.

Lin Yuchen paused and asked, “What’s the matter?!”

Ye Lulu said, “The county magistrate should interrogate this bastard more about other things. Look at how domineering and fierce he is. He must have done more harmful things in private, such as burning, killing, and plundering. I don’t know if there are other stall owners who have been bullied by him at the docks. I suggest the county magistrate interrogate him and ask the other stall owners. Perhaps, you can gain something.”

“You! You b*tch!” When Wang Ba heard this, he stuck his head out and scolded Ye Lulu fiercely.

Everyone was shocked by his sudden viciousness.
