Chapter 1522 Chu Chen draws his knife to force the head of the police
Chu Chen smiled after hearing this: "Two officers, do you think we're the kind of people who are short of ten taels of silver?"
"Boy, we didn't ask you for money when you were just passing through Liuyun Town. How can you be so inconsiderate? Do you want to experience what it's like to be in jail?"
Chu Chen was too lazy to waste words with these two minor characters, and immediately ordered Gou Shengzi to drive the carriage away.
As a result, when the two officers saw that they were about to leave, they immediately drew their swords and blocked the carriage.
"Boy, how dare you defy the laws of my Flowing Cloud Sect?"
"The Flowing Cloud Law? Is it greater than the laws of the Song Kingdom?"
"Hmph, the emperor is far away, so I'll be frank with you today. You have no choice but to keep this tiger. Our county magistrate happens to be in town today. If you hand the tiger over to him, perhaps you'll live in peace from now on. Otherwise..."
"Or what?"
Hearing this, Chu Chen also got angry. He thought to himself that he could understand bandits robbing people along the way, but now even the constables dared to rob people in the street.
Is this still the Great Song Dynasty of Dongshilan?
As the Imperial Advisor, I'll see what the county magistrate's attitude is. If the magistrate is the same, I won't mind cleaning up these parasites in the Song Kingdom.
"Otherwise, haha, otherwise I'll make you rot in jail."
"What arrogance! Where is your county magistrate? I want to see him."
"You think you're qualified to see our master? You'd better know better than to put down the tiger and leave, or don't blame us for being impolite."
Chu Chen shook his head: "Is your stupidity inherited from your ancestors? Do you really think someone who can kill such a big tiger would be afraid of the two of you?"
As soon as Chu Chen finished speaking, Gou Shengzi in front of him drew the long knife from his waist.
When the guards behind him saw Gou Shengzi draw his sword, they also drew their swords as well.
"Master, these two thugs want our stuff. This is blatant robbery. Don't worry, Master, we'll risk our lives to get you out of here safely."
The guards were also extremely angry at this moment.
It's already frustrating enough in this world where officials oppress the people, but I never expected that even after following my master, I would still have to suffer such grievances. Don't they know that my master is the current Grand Preceptor?
Chu Chen coldly watched all of this. When the two constables saw Chu Chen's men draw their swords and then looked at the huge tiger on their carriage, they were momentarily stunned.
He thought to himself, "Could it be that I've run into a brick wall today? Weren't my previous business partners always easy to talk to?"
Who would want to go against the government? But these people today seem a bit too tough.
But then I thought about it again. This was their territory, far from the emperor's reach. Most people who suffered losses would have to suffer in silence.
For no other reason than that they were local officials, and there were many of them, so there were many knives.
However, there were only two of them at the moment, and they were definitely no match for him. Since they wanted to see the county magistrate, they would show him how many eyes the county magistrate had.
"Good lad, since you are so eager to see the county magistrate and have something to say, we two brothers will grant your wish today."
"If you have the guts, follow behind. Otherwise, I'll have you wiped out."
Chu Chen looked at the two fools and said, "Lead the way!"
The two chuckled after hearing this, then turned and walked forward. Chu Chen ordered Gou Shengzi to drive the carriage and follow behind them, heading towards a tall building in the center of town.
The passersby who were watching the commotion all shook their heads, thinking to themselves, "Where did this fool come from? Doesn't he know that Liuyun Town is the vital passage for merchants traveling between the north and south?"
If I offend the local officials, I'm afraid this business deal will be off the table.
An old man quietly approached and said urgently to Chu Chen, "Young master, hurry up and give some silver to bribe the magistrate. Once you see the magistrate, you really won't be able to leave."
"Oh, old man, these two constables aren't human. Could it be that this county magistrate...?"
"Young master, this must not be said, this must not be said! I advise you to think of a solution."
After saying this, the old man quickly left, as if afraid that others would overhear.
Chu Chen thanked the old man, but in his heart he began to calculate. It seemed that the county magistrate here was no ordinary person. Today, he would act on behalf of Heaven to uphold justice.
A short while later, Chu Chen led a group of people, dragging the big tiger along with two constables, into the large building.
As soon as they entered, two constables said a few words to a man who looked like a leader, and the next moment, about twenty constables surrounded their group.
Chu Chen was carrying a pistol in his hand, and behind his loose clothes, he was also carrying a submachine gun.
Gou Shengzi also held a pistol in his hand, while the others drew their long knives from their waists and came to Chu Chen's carriage.
"Young man, this is our constable Zhang. You can talk to him if you have something to say."
The two constables seemed to have found their backbone and immediately became arrogant, pointing at the middle-aged constable in the lead and saying.
"Are you the head constable here?"
Chu Chen ignored the constable who had spoken and instead addressed Constable Zhang.
"That's right. I heard you killed a big tiger in my Liuyun Town, and you don't want to hand it over?"
"You should know that this belongs to Liuyun Town. If you know what's good for you, hand it over and take five taels of silver and leave."
Holy crap, this whole thing cost me another five taels of silver?
Chu Chen sneered: "You are all the same, just like crows all over the world. Call your magistrate out and say something, or don't blame me for being impolite."
Chu Chen has shown remarkable patience with such people; otherwise, they would have been dead long ago.
"Boy, do you intend to disobey orders?"
"Disobey orders? Whose orders? If you don't call your magistrate out, I'll take your life."
After saying that, Chu Chen reached out and snatched a long sword from a guard, then flashed forward and placed the sword against Zhang the constable's neck.
For a moment, all the constables panicked, never expecting that this seemingly thin young master was actually a master.
They only bully ordinary people on a regular basis; they wouldn't dare to fight against real masters.
The constable Zhang panicked as he felt the coldness on his neck: "Young master, young master, let's talk this out, please don't resort to knives or guns."
"Then hurry up and call your magistrate out!"
"Yes, yes, what the hell are you all standing there for? Hurry up and go fetch the county magistrate..."
Officer Zhang dared not move and immediately shouted to the people behind him.
The constables behind him dared not delay and turned around to run into the house.
A short while later, a portly man came out and approached Chu Chen. Chu Chen could smell a strong odor of alcohol.
"Who dares to be so arrogant in front of me? I'd like to see if you have three heads and six arms or something."
