I Don't Know Martial Art Chapter 337

Chapter 337 - Helplessness of the Inspector General

"Bam!"

In the yamen, in the lobby, Lu Hongda was sitting on a chair with a black veil over his head. Behind him was a picture of the clear sky and the bright sun.

Cough cough, Captain Wei. You are the newly appointed captain of the Patrol Office and should have come to the Patrol Office to report on why you were able to take over the position of captain.

This Lu Hongda knew that Xiang Yun was an extraordinary person. Furthermore, Xiang Yun was the newly appointed captain of the Patrol Officer Patrol Guard, so he did not put too much emphasis on his words. His tone was friendly as well.

Xiang Yun stood at the front of the hall and cupped his hands together as he said, "Reporting to Sir, I originally wanted to come directly here to report this, but upon encountering the Meng mother and daughter, the two of them were almost humiliated by two barbarian soldiers outside the southern city gates. It was only then that I found out that the Meng family was greatly wronged, and that our Patrol Department was in charge of the people of Tiger City.

"What barbarian!" Upon hearing that it was a grievance related to the barbarian race, Lu Hongda's greasy and shiny fat face suddenly trembled. His complexion changed abruptly.

"No, no, no." Lu Hongda subconsciously shook his head like a rattle drum.

"No?" Xiang Yun's gaze turned cold as he glared at Lu Hongda, an oppressive and ice-cold aura immediately filled the entire hall!

"Uh …" Lu Hongda was scared stiff by Xiang Yun's glare. He hurriedly said, "This isn't out of the question, it's just that …" Lu Hongda was unable to speak as he turned to look at Master Zhang for help.

Master Zhang quickly approached Lu Hongda. Lu Hongda whispered, "What do we do now? This brat wants to sue those barbarians. How can we afford to offend him? Besides, I think the new Captain Wei is not someone to be trifled with."

When Master Zhang heard this, he rubbed his mouth that was crooked from being hit by the door and nodded in deep agreement.

"Master, why not listen to what exactly is wrong with this woman? If it's a small matter, we can just help her make it up to her and give Captain Wei some face so that he won't cause any more trouble."

"That makes sense." Hearing this, Lu Hongda's eyes lit up. He turned to the Meng family, who was kneeling down, and said, "Meng, since Captain Wei brought you here, there must be some injustice, please tell us about it."

Hearing this, the Meng family recounted what had happened last night. The barbarians plotted against them to steal their wealth. The Meng family recounted the crimes of these barbarians one by one. Finally, the Meng family kowtowed and fell to their knees.

"My husband and grandfather-in-law died unjustly. I plead for my lord to seek justice for this little girl and let my poor family rest in peace in the underworld!"

The Meng family's words were heart-wrenching and teary. However, Lu Hongda and Elder Zhang's scalps were numb with fear. How could they dare to interfere in such a heinous crime, especially when it involved barbarians?

"This …" Lu Hongda was so nervous that he was at a loss for words. Master Zhang, who was standing at the side, ignored the rules of the hall and asked, "Do you know those vicious barbarians?"

At this moment, he still had some hope. If the barbarian men were covered with black scarves and their appearances could not be seen, then it would be simple. He could just casually check their appearances and come up empty-handed.

Unexpectedly, Meng Shi said with a face full of grief and indignation, "Yes, I do. Even if they turn to dust, this little girl will still recognize him."

We are Hu Rui from the North City, and his group of thugs! "

"Pata!"

"Aiyo!" Lu Hongda's hand slipped and his chin fell on the table. He was in so much pain that tears were about to fall out of his eyes, but his eyes were still wide open as he stared at the Meng family.

"You, who do you think that person is?"

"It's the barbarian from North City, Hu Rui!" The Meng Clan had been doing business in the Tiger City for more than ten years. Therefore, they were quite familiar with the people of the city.

When Lu Hongda heard the name 'Hu Rui', he also felt that it was a bit familiar. He quickly called for Master, "Master Zhang, have you ever heard of this barbarian?"

"Master Zhang, this little barbarian has indeed heard of it. He is not an ordinary barbarian. He is a follower of the president of the Gesun Trading Company. He is very close to them!"

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Hearing the words "President of the Gesun Trading Company", Lu Hongda felt as if he had been struck by lightning and his body went numb on the spot.

"This person cannot be caught!"

"My lord!" The Meng family's underling cried out in grief, his eyes filled with disappointment.

"Why can't we capture him? Sir, it is perfectly justified to kill him to repay the debt with our lives!" Xiang Yun's cold shout was even louder than that of the shocking tree as he coldly stared at Lu Hongda and Master Zhang.

"This …" Lu Hongda was a weak master, but upon being coldly glared at by Xiang Yun, he immediately panicked a little. In a dilemma, he could only quietly wave at Xiang Yun, "That Captain Wei, do you want us to speak from behind?"

Xiang Yun didn't know what Lu Hongda was up to, but he didn't object. He had Dong Lin protect Meng while he, Lu Hongda and Master Zhang went to the back of the hall!

"Captain Wei, this person really can't be caught!" As soon as they arrived at the back of the hall, Lu Hongda howled in grief.

Xiang Yun frowned as he stared at Lu Hongda, "Why can't we arrest him? My lord, as the head of the Patrol Department, shouldn't you avenge the people, even though they have suffered grievances and been killed for no reason?"

Lu Hongda was so worried that his eyes and nose were almost scrunched up. He shook his head and said, "Captain Wei, you don't know the situation in the Tiger City. This Hu Rui is the subordinate of the president of the Gesun Trading Company, Ou Chengwen.

Hearing this, Xiang Yun laughed in extreme anger, "Haha, you're the half city lord of Tiger City. You're actually afraid of the president of a barbarian trading company? How can the commoners trust you, bunch of cowards?"

"How dare you!" Lu Hongda snapped, but his voice didn't get louder. He really didn't have the confidence. When he thought about the situation of the Patrol Officer, Lu Hongda also felt troubled.

On the side, it was Master Zhang who pulled Xiang Yun along as he complained, "Captain Wei, it's not that sire isn't willing to take responsibility for our people, but rather the current Tiger City. Our Patrol Office has no words to say at all!"

"What do you mean?"

Only then did Elder Zhang explain the current situation of Tiger City's Patrol Office.

It turned out that before the Tiger City massacre half a year ago, the Tiger City Patrol Officer had a lot of prestige in the hearts of the people. It turned out that before the Tiger City massacre half a year ago, the Tiger City Patrol Officer had a lot of prestige in the hearts of the people.

But the Inspector General's Office

The barbarian soldiers had done all that they could to impartially enforce the law. However, they hadn't expected that these patrolling barbarian soldiers would recklessly protect these barbarians who had violated the law.

The barbarians were much stronger than the Storm Country. They were even more powerful when they attacked. The Patrol Officer's men were no match for them. They had lost a lot of men and horses over the course of several battles.

As for the turmoil in Tiger City, none of the reserve soldiers that had their heads cut off wanting to enter the Patrol Office were willing to join either. This way, the Patrol Officer wouldn't be able to get additional personnel and wouldn't have the upper echelons to take charge of the situation in Tiger City.

Faced with the barbarians' increasingly rampant actions, the Patrol Office had managed to maintain its position. However, the number of casualties had increased. The barbarians were arrogant and reckless. They had finally lost control of the Tiger City.

Now that the Inspector General was dead in name, he could no longer restrain the law and discipline of the barbarians in the city. Instead, he was afraid that the barbarians would cause trouble for the Inspector General.

After listening to Master Zhang's story, Xiang Yun asked in doubt, "Could it be that you didn't report to your superiors about the situation within the city?"

Lu Hongda said bitterly, "The paperwork has been written over a dozen times, and there isn't even a reply. If it weren't for the fact that the government still has some savings as a salary, I'm afraid the yamen runners would have dispersed."

The current Inspector General was practically an empty shell. The Inspector, together with the yamen runners, numbered less than a hundred. He was practically isolated and without help.

"So it's like that!"

Xiang Yun couldn't help but furrow his brows in deep thought as he thought to himself: Under the jurisdiction of Xiang Jinglei, how did the entire northern border become a pot of porridge? Although Xiang Yun had no good will towards this big brother of his, Xiang Jinglei's.

But he had to say something fair and square. Xiang Jinglei was definitely a man with a tough approach and decisive actions. Such a bold general, no matter what, would not have been able to turn the Cold City Pass into this state.

At this time, Master Zhang stepped forward and advised, "Captain Wei, I'll give you a word of advice. You shouldn't interfere in the Meng family's case, you shouldn't get into this mess. Otherwise, you won't be able to survive if you provoke those barbarians!"

"Are you saying that we should just let this poor mother and daughter duo have nowhere to go and accept their fate?" Xiang Yun's tone was low as he stared at Master Zhang.

"Sigh …" Master Zhang sighed helplessly, "Captain Wei, are there still less of these wronged souls left in Tiger City? Didn't master just refuse to make decisions? He's just too heartless."

"Yes, Captain Wei!" Lu Hongda's face was also full of worry!

"Phew!"

Xiang Yun took a deep breath before clenching his fists and saying icily, "Fine, you don't dare to interfere in this matter. I'll handle it, immediately go through the formalities. If I want to, I can take over!"

Xiang Yun knew that it would be impossible to rely on Lu Hongda to control him. If he didn't surpass him, he would have directly avenged the Meng Family!

"This …" Seeing Xiang Yun's murderous, murderous expression, Lu Hongda immediately hesitated. However, under Xiang Yun's pressure, he had no choice but to immediately go through the registration formalities for Xiang Yun, sealing the documents with the seal of the Inspector General.

Xiang Yun then left the backyard, arriving at the great hall. He brought Dong Lin and the Meng mother and daughter directly out of the magistrate's office, heading towards the office of the Patrol Officer, who was not far away from the magistrate's office.

This was the equivalent of the Department of Internal Affairs' operations, the place Xiang Yun had been assigned to. The entire Department of Internal Oversight Services had been stationed there.
