Chapter 349 Domineering and Mighty
Chapter 349 Domineering and Mighty
Chen Er's domineering presence left the guards dumbfounded, and even Wang Tianyu, who was kneeling on the ground, was startled. Only now did Wang Tianyu realize what kind of killing god he had offended.
However, when Wang Tianyu thought of Wang Dawei, he realized that Sun Yunhe was backing him up, and Wang Tianyu was no longer so afraid. Wang Tianyu tried to stand up, but Ma Dazhi kicked him in the knee, and Wang Tianyu knelt on the ground like a dead dog once again.
Wang Tianyu's eyes were red, and his triangular eyes stared intently at Chen Er as he spoke angrily.
"Chen Er, no matter what, I am a county magistrate, the official in charge of the people's livelihood. Is it really okay for you to treat me like this? Don't think that just because you are now a first-rank official, you can sit on my head."
That's great! But as soon as Wang Tianyu finished speaking, some of the locals outside started clapping and cheering.
"Lord Chen Er, you must do your best for us poor folks. Let's see which piece of trash will dare to bully us, the poor and powerless people, in the future."
A dark-faced man shouted from the crowd. One person clapped and cheered, and the rest of the group started yelling. Some of the bolder ones even gave Chen Er a thumbs up.
These impoverished people never expected Chen Er to be so domineering and powerful, actually daring to make the county magistrate kneel down. Such a good official is truly a once-in-a-century occurrence. Chen Er looked at Ma Dazhi beside him before asking questions.
"Who are you people? Let me go right now, or you'll regret it when I get the chance."
The crowd outside immediately made way, and Chen Er saw Liu Chengdong dragging a person in with a rope. This person's body was already bound with rope, and his body was covered in wounds, indicating that he had been beaten by Liu Chengdong.
After seeing Chen Er, Liu Chengdong spat on the man and said, "Boss, luckily I got there quickly, otherwise this guy would have bullied a girl. He's trash. This is the first time I've seen someone so fearless."
Upon hearing Liu Chengdong's words, Chen Er felt a surge of anger rising within him. He couldn't believe that such scum, who bullied men and women, still existed.
Chen Er looked at Wang Dawei, who had a fair and delicate appearance, but the smug look on his lips disgusted Chen Er. Chen Er was a little surprised and wondered what Wang Dawei was so proud of.
Could it be that Wang Dawei still believes that even though he's been captured by his own people, he still has a chance to get out?
Wang Dawei was somewhat taken aback when he saw Wang Tianyu kneeling on the ground: "Hey, isn't this Magistrate Wang Tianyu? Why are you kneeling on the ground? Get up right now. With me here today, I assure you, no one will dare to do anything to us."
Goodness, Wang Dawei is acting like he's at home, completely ignoring Chen Er. Actually, when Wang Dawei came in, he saw that Chen Er was wearing the official robes of a first-rank official, but Wang Dawei didn't care.
Anyway, with Sun Yunhe behind him, Wang Dawei didn't take Chen Er seriously. So Wang Dawei even wanted to back up the county magistrate. When Wang Tianyu heard Wang Dawei say that, the muscles on his cheeks showed a smug expression, and he tried to stand up from the ground.
But Chen Er gave Ma Dazhi a wink, and Ma Dazhi kicked Wang Tianyu again. Wang Tianyu cried out and lay on the ground like a dead dog, with a bloody hole smashed into his head. The county magistrate looked at Ma Dazhi angrily and shouted angrily.
"Who do you think you are? I'm a local official, how dare you hit me here? Men, arrest this Ma Dazhi!"
The county magistrate is now a little angry. If Wang Dawei hadn't come, Wang Tianyu might still be wary of Chen Er. But now that Wang Dawei has arrived, it won't be long before Sun Yunhe arrives as well.
Who is Sun Yunhe? He was a favorite of Wei Zhongxian, a newly promoted first-rank official. If he wanted to challenge Wei Zhongxian, he would be asking for trouble. To put it bluntly, it was like an egg hitting a rock, overestimating his own strength.
Ma Dazhi laughed, brandishing his long sword incessantly: "I'm merely acting on behalf of my master. If you're not satisfied, come at me. If I, Ma Dazhi, take a step back, you've won."
Although Brother Ma spoke very calmly, the chill in his words made everyone tremble. Chen Er narrowed his eyes and looked at Wang Dawei.
“You, a mere commoner, dare to kneel before me? What is your punishment? Come to me and give Wang Dawei thirty strokes of the cane first.”
Wang Dawei hadn't expected that his attempt to intimidate Chen Er would backfire so badly. He immediately took several steps back, and seeing the ill-intentioned Ma Dazhi and Liu Chengdong, he trembled and collapsed to the ground.
Wang Dawei was paralyzed with fear. His body trembled and his mouth quivered as he looked at Chen Er.
"Chen Er, you are just a low-ranking official. You have no right to punish me. Do you know who is behind me? You will regret this. If anyone dares to come up here, I swear you will wipe out their entire family."
Chen Er laughed, grabbed the wooden board on the table, and smashed it down on Wang Dawei's head.
"How dare you! You dare to flaunt your power in front of me and even want to wipe out my entire family! What makes you so powerful? Even if Sun Yunhe came today, he couldn't save you. Guards, give him sixty lashes!"
Now look what happened. Just a few seconds ago it was thirty strokes of the cane, but now it's doubled again. Wang Dawei looked at Chen Er with a gloomy expression. Wang Dawei wasn't stupid. He had delicate skin, and let alone dozens of strokes, just looking at those heavy canes made him feel like his heart was about to break.
"Chen Er, you can't treat me like this. Do you know what you're doing? If you dare to lay a finger on me today, Sun Yunhe will not let you get away with it."
Chen Er helplessly spread his hands. He immediately gave Ma Dazhi a wink. Just as Ma Dazhi and Liu Chengdong were about to make their move, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly came from outside the door. Chen Er's face darkened.
