Agriculture Escape: Ultimate Boss Has A Space Pocket! (ON-HOLD)

Chapter 31: Out of the Blue

Yan Kingdom had restrictions on weapons.

Sabers and spears could only be used by the government officials.

If the escorts wanted to use it, they had to register with the government and obtain permission.

If they dared to use the weapons privately, they would be severely punished.

Especially at this sensitive time, using an unregistered weapon and being called a traitor by Fourth Master was very likely to cost him his head.

Fourth Master glanced at the officer in the lead and said solemnly, "Their weapons are hidden in the cart and on their bodies, sir. You can search them now. If there aren't any, I'll cut my head off and kick it like a ball."

The officer looked at the panicking villagers and waved his hand. "Search them!"

Zhao Cunzi hurriedly said in shock, "Sir, we're innocent! The weapons were all from the bandits who robbed us. We chased them away and kept the weapons for self-defense. Otherwise, with so many of us, we wouldn't have been able to get here."

Fourth Master said, "Bandits! How could bandits with weapons be chased away by them? They must be traitors! Sir, we have to capture them as a warning to others!"

Village Chief Zhao's face turned pale. He hurriedly shouted, "Sir, that's really the truth. We're not lying."

"You're lying! If you're not traitors, how could you kill several of my poor brothers in one go? They're all hidden experts! We passed by them and were almost killed. Sir, you have to stand up for my brothers! They even stole our silver!"

The words "silver" made the eyes of the leader light up. He asked in a low voice, "How much silver?"

Fourth Master said hatefully, "More than 500 taels!"

More than 500 taels!

The officers all suck in a deep breath.

This hooligan leader had actually collected so much money!

The officer looked at Zhao Pengfei, who was in the lead. The group of people who could snatch Fourth Master's silver and kill his brothers probably had more silver in their hands!

Zhao Pengfei said angrily, "Nonsense! I shouldn't have been merciful to you last night!"

Fourth Master hurriedly pointed at Zhao Pengfei and said, "Sir, look, they want to kill me in front of you!" He deliberately said that there were 500 taels of silver because he wanted the soldiers to torture and interrogate them about the whereabouts of the silver.

Letting them die like this would be letting them off easy.

The officer's eyes were filled with greed as he said urgently to the soldiers, "What are you waiting for? Arrest them!" These livestock and things were worth a lot of money. Fourth Master had really given him a big fat sheep.

Village Chief Zhao was in despair. If they really discovered those weapons, all the villagers in the entire Zhao farmyard would be in danger of extermination.

When Bai Wutong saw the villagers' panicked expressions, she lowered her eyes and said to Lin Yue, "Money makes the world go round. Take some banknotes and try bribing them."

Didn't these soldiers just want money? Then they would just smash them with money!

Lin Yue had the same intention. He took a step forward and hesitated. Why was he the one paying?

Bai Wutong clearly still had the few thousand taels that he had given her!

Lin Yue patted Village Chief Zhao's nervous back and stood in front of him. He said to the officer, "Officer, slow down. I can prove that we are not traitors."
