13. Dealing with the Shrewd Yamen Runner

"This …" The two of them looked at each other and hesitated. To be honest, they didn't want to let go of the six hundred and seventy taels of silver.

However, they didn't want to face his brother if they ignored the death of the hot-tempered yamen runner.

"He wants to avenge his brother. Why are you interfering? If you really annoy me, I'll tear up the banknotes. Before your men arrive, we'll fight to the death!

I'm sure I can take one or two lives if I go crazy! "Wang Yi threatened them when he saw their hesitation.

This was the experience he learned from collecting protection fees on Earth. Some people were like this. When benefits and face were placed together, they didn't know how to choose. Once they understood the pros and cons, they would cooperate obediently.

Obviously, the two of them were such people.

"Okay, we promise you!"

Then he turned to the Shrewd Yamen runner and said, "Sorry, we became yamen runners for the money. Now that the money is here, we won't take the risk with you!"

"Do you think you'll still be alive to spend the money if I tell the magistrate about this?" The Shrewd Yamen runner sneered at the two of them. "Don't lose your mind because of temporary benefits!"

The two of them couldn't help but be stunned. As he said, if the magistrate knew about this, they wouldn't be alive to spend the money.

"Haha!"

Wang Yi's laughter was heard. "You two can take the money and leave. I'll deal with him. Can a dead man talk?"

The two of them listened and looked at each other. They nodded and a trace of determination flashed in their eyes. Since you don't know what to do, then don't blame us.

Therefore, the two of them carefully took the banknotes from Wang Yi's hand. "Wait until we're gone before you do anything!"

They were afraid that Wang Yi would regret it after dealing with the Shrewd Yamen runner and cause trouble for them. It seemed that there were risks in making money.

Therefore, the two of them trotted out of the inn.

Seeing the two of them leave, the Shrewd Yamen runner was so angry that his face turned pale.

However, it was okay. He also learned some martial arts. Although he couldn't defeat Wang Yi, he should be able to wait for reinforcements. At that time, Wang Yi would be dead!

As for those two bastards, they should die as well!

However, he was obviously thinking too much. Wang Yi was getting more and more proficient in using the Lightning Attraction Technique. It was not something he could withstand at all.

Wang Yi approached him step by step, while he retreated step by step. What he needed to do now was to stall for time. He would not take the initiative to attack Wang Yi.

Of course, Wang Yi was able to see through his thoughts.

Wang Yi raised his saber and used the Lightning Drawing Technique to slash at him.

He avoided the blade and dodged to the side.

Wang Yi's saber landed on the wooden ladder, leaving a deep cut on it.

Looking at the wooden ladder, he broke out in a cold sweat. If this knife landed on his body, he would lose his life.

"Why don't I run first? Revenge is a dish best served cold!"

This thought flashed through his mind. "No, if I miss this chance, I don't know when I'll be able to meet him again. What revenge is there to talk about!" Before he could finish his thought, Wang Yi's blade was like a shooting star, falling rapidly.

He hurriedly raised his saber to block Wang Yi.

However, Wang Yi's strength was too great, forcing him back several steps.

While he's sick, take his life!

Wang Yi once again slashed at his head. He hurriedly used his saber to block it, but covered his eyes.

This was the effect that Wang Yi wanted. Wang Yi kicked at his chest, sending him sprawling in the air.

He held his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood. He was in a bit of disbelief. This brat clearly wasn't this strong before. Could it be that his strength had regressed?

"If you knew it would be like this, why did you act in the first place?

Wouldn't it have been fine if you obediently took the banknotes and left? "Wang Yi looked at him with a teasing gaze, calmly saying this.

"Humph, those two idiots might believe your nonsense, but I don't!

Would you let them go?

If I didn't guess wrong, the first thing you did when you left was to look for them! "He coughed as he said these words.

"That's right, you're completely right. I was running, so how could I give the banknotes to them. However, they're luckier than you, their lives aren't in danger!" Wang Yi said as he walked closer and slashed out with his saber.

He raised his saber and continued to resist, but because he had just been heavily injured, when he clashed with Wang Yi's saber, the saber in his hand was like a piece of white paper being sent flying.

Wang Yi did not have the heart of a bodhisattva. Towards this person who wanted him dead, he gave him another stab, ending his life.

Just as he said, Wang Yi left the inn and chased after the two bailiffs.

Speaking of the two, after the two of them received the banknotes, they madly ran. They were not idiots, they were afraid that Wang Yi would suddenly turn around and attack them.

However, in front of the temptation of a thousand taels of banknotes, they could not help but take this risk.

If they really waited for reinforcements to arrive, Wang Yi would be dead for sure. There was no doubt about it.

However, the two thousand taels of banknotes in Wang Yi's hands had nothing to do with them. As for the one thousand taels, the condition was to catch four people. What was the use of catching one?

The two of them ran for a long time before slowing down.

It was not that they were relieved, but that they really could not run anymore.

"Why did I forget to ride a horse just now?

This is so tiring! "

"I was too anxious just now. I was afraid that the brat would not keep his promise and suddenly cause trouble for us, so I forgot!

I wonder if that brat has dealt with the two brothers? "

"He has, don't worry!"

Wang Yi's ghostly voice suddenly appeared in their ears, scaring the two of them so much that they almost could not breathe.

Well, it seemed that this brat really did not keep his promise.

Speaking of which, how did Wang Yi catch up with them so quickly?

That was because he was riding a horse. The two of them were excited, but he was sober. After fighting with that shrewd bailiff for half a day, he was already tired. If he had continued to chase after the two of them, who knows who would have dealt with who in the end!

Looking at Wang Yi who was sitting on the horse and whose complexion had almost recovered, the two of them were filled with regret. Why were they so excited? Because of this excitement, two thousand taels of silver flew away. Two thousand taels!

The two of them could only bite the bullet and say. "Oh, then congratulations young hero. If there is nothing else, we will leave first." The two of them did not want to face reality and wanted to escape.

"If you want to leave, then I won't stop you. However, shouldn't you return my banknotes to me?" Wang Yi said innocently.

When the two of them heard this, their expressions became unnatural. Damn, what did we just say? How did it become yours now!

Seeing that the two of them did not speak, "But if you want to be swallowed by me, you should first think about whether your neck is hard enough. I have already dealt with the two brothers, so it shouldn't be difficult for me to deal with you two, right?"

The two of them looked at each other and knew that they did not have the life to spend this money. As the saying goes, a wise man submits to circumstances. It was better to obediently give him the money and not put their lives on the line.

The two of them reluctantly took out the banknotes from their bodies and returned them to Wang Yi.
