Chapter 307: Chapter 306 Seventh Master Wakes Up _1
"What? Is that really true?"
Su Pan’er’s eyes widened in an instant!
She couldn’t help but think back to Mrs. Qin-Li’s behavior after she married into the Qin family; various thoughts rapidly surfaced from her heart.
"Ha! True or false, I’m afraid only old Qin would know."
Aunt Zhou pulled her further into the house again, and only when they reached the innermost part did she speak in a low voice: "During the Qingming Festival when you visited the graves, did you notice a small gravestone with no inscription near the edge of the Qin family’s ancestral tomb? Do you know? Over twenty years ago, that little grave suddenly appeared near the Qin family’s ancestral tomb. Mrs. Qin-Li cried there for many days and no one could pull her away."
"There are such secrets?"
Surprised, Su Pan’er didn’t know how to react for a while.
"Old Qin said she went mad, and it took more than half a year to recover. This matter is not a secret in Luoyan Village, anyone you ask would know it."
Aunt Zhou lightly patted her arm: "Alas! It’s a pity for you. You’re such a good daughter-in-law, yet you ended up with such a mother-in-law..."
With that, Aunt Zhou sighed several times and went to the kitchen.
Su Pan’er slowly sat down on the chair.
Qin Yi is not Mrs. Qin-Li’s real son?
Thinking about it, she couldn’t help but feel goosebumps.
Especially outside, when Qin Yi’s gentle voice of persuasion, almost drowned by Mrs. Qin-Li’s ferocious scolding, the feeling became even stronger!
"...Why did I give birth to such a spineless son? Why didn’t you die in her belly? That would’ve spared me from being embarrassed by you..."
Would it ever end?
With a frown, Su Pan’er stepped out of the room and was about to enter another one when she heard hurried running sounds outside. She instinctively turned around and saw Su Sikong leading a group of bailiffs quickly approaching.
Seeing her, Su Sikong immediately stopped in his tracks, sneered coldly, and beckoned the people behind him.
"It’s her! Immediately arrest her for this official!"
"Yes, Sir!"
The group of bailiffs immediately rushed up.
"Wait!"
Su Pan’er snapped out of her trance and indignantly shouted, "Deputy County Magistrate Su, what on earth are you trying to do?"
"What am I doing? Ha ha ha, are you pretending to be dumb on purpose here?"
Su Sikong, his fat body shaking, his squinting eyes radiating a malicious light, said: "Su Pan’er, if you don’t want others to know, you shouldn’t have done it yourself! Three months ago, you killed over a hundred soldiers on Deicide Mountain and intentionally hurt Seventh Master while you were treating him. This is an extremely heinous crime! Now the evidence is solid, and I am here to arrest you! Go and grab her!"
As he said this, he once again urged the bailiffs on.
"Wait!"
A cold glint flashed across Su Pan’er’s eyes.
Had Seventh Master woken up?
She originally thought that no one here could decipher her intentional subterfuge. She didn’t expect that there were so many dragons and tigers hidden in this world!
She slightly concentrated, then shouted: "Hold on! Lord Su, are you saying that just because you say I am guilty, I am guilty? Although I, Su Pan’er, am somewhat strong, to defend against a hundred by myself, isn’t that too legendary?"
The bailiffs reaching for her stopped.
"Don’t bother with her! Get her! And when we get back, hit her with poles and clamps, and see if she confesses then!"
Su Sikong’s eyes were full of malice!
Very well!
So he plans on forcing a confession out of her!
Watching the government employee rush toward her again, Su Pan’er didn’t hesitate. She used her quick capture technique to grab two people lunging at her, swinging them around and throwing them a full ten feet away!
Then two more men, one from the left and one from the right, lunged at her.
With a pull and a yank from Su Pan’er, the two men crashed into each other, dizzy from the impact, and collapsed onto the ground.
As others tried to approach her, Su Pan’er refused to further engage. She somersaulted in midair, landing on a large rock nearby.
"Su Sikong, do you, an old man, intend to resort to coercion to extract a confession? Where’s your evidence? If you don’t present it, I will report you to the local magistrate for slandering me!"
The insult struck Su Sikong like a slap in the face. His complexion turned dark blue!
He pointed at Su Pan’er, speechless for a while!
"You... you insolent woman! You dare to threaten an official! Bring forth the crossbow!"
"Yes!"
A few government employees scurried around and quickly loaded a crossbow.
Su Pan’er took one look, and immediately flew into a rage!
What these people were holding was a crossbow that could shoot ten arrows at once!
"Bastard!"
"Halt!"
Both Su Pan’er and another voice chimed in at the same time!
County magistrate Jun Ruochen and Magistrate Cao strode forward, both with grim expressions on their faces, especially Magistrate Cao, who was furious at the sight of the crossbow!
"Su Sikong, Lord Su, you’re quite bold! You’ve even brought out a crossbow!"
The government employees who were handling the crossbow hastily dropped the arrow, their eyes all focusing on Su Sikong.
Upon seeing the reactions of the two, Su Sikong’s smile stiffened, and he immediately addressed them with a fist and palm salute. "Magistrate Cao, the crossbow was brought out to capture a wanted criminal. This person single-handedly killed over a hundred of our brothers from the county office, a truly nefarious villain. As she’s cunning and extremely strong, ordinary people are no match for her, so...
"Humph! Deputy County Magistrate Su, you don’t mean to tell me that you brought out the crossbow to confront Doctor Su, do you?"
Magistrate Cao’s face was extremely unpleasant!
The reason he came to this remote and poor Yongze County was due to their claim of having a divine medical technique that could prevent anyone from contracting smallpox for life.
If someone was going to sabotage the investigation before the results were out, wouldn’t that be disastrous?
"Doctor Su is but a woman. You guys, all these men, can’t even handle her and have the audacity to deploy a crossbow? Are you all good-for-nothings?"
He turned his head and glared furiously at Jun Ruochen: "As the county magistrate, are you just looking after your rice bowl? Don’t you know that this kind of crossbow should only be used during wartime? Did you even bother to discipline your subordinates? Well, why are you silent now? Have you become mute?"
Superiors can crush you like a bug with their authority!
"I’m guilty of negligence in the supervision of my subordinates, which has led to this ridicule from Lord Cao. I’m truly ashamed!"
Jun Ruochen quickly held his first and palm together in salute.
Su Sikong hesitated, fearing that today’s situation would escalate further!
His eyes narrowed, quickly stepping forward to salute: "Magistrate Cao, there’s something you don’t know. This matter involves a message passed down from the Eighth Master in the Capital City, which was personally said by the Seventh Master, without the slightest falsification! I was worried this matter would cause more trouble, so I specifically brought out the crossbow. This has nothing to do with the county magistrate!"
Magistrate Cao wasn’t buying his explanation, and with a snort, his sleeves flew up.
"Who are these Eighth and Seventh Masters? I don’t know them! I’m here under orders to investigate the plague, and to find a way to prevent and treat it. Whoever dares to obstruct me, I won’t let them off easily! Lord Su, aren’t you afraid that I will charge you with the crime of deceiving the emperor and exterminating your clan? Humph!"
"Magistrate Cao, this matter really is..."
Su Sikong was sweating profusely, trying to explain.
But Jun Ruochen didn’t wait for him to finish, and stepped forward, bowing to Magistrate Cao.
"Lord Cao, rest assured! I will investigate the matter of Su Sikong arbitrarily using a crossbow, and I will make amends for this mistake. I will give everyone an explanation, and also give you an explanation, Lord Cao!"
