The most important thing for him right now, and also the thing he lacked the most, was people.
Other things were also lacking, but it was not that serious. Only people were the most important.
When they first arrived at Yunlai Mansion, there were only two or three of them left in the entire government office. There were less than ten people in total. There was no way to use them at ease.
Is there a plan?” Xu Bai said.
Yun Zihai shook his head and said,” Brother Xu, the two of us will keep in close contact. You should go to the Yin Posthouse first. We can’t both lose our composure. Once I find any useful clues, I’ll inform you in time.”” “Looks like you really want to drag me down with you.” Xu Bai laughed.”
“If it was before, I definitely wouldn’t do this. But now, I don’t have anyone I can trust. “Yun Zihai turned his head and said,”Brother Xu, you will help me, right?””
“Helping you is helping me,” Xu Bai continued to smile.”
There was no free lunch in this world, and there was no free help.
Yun Zihai naturally understood this logic and nodded repeatedly in agreement.”ln the future, if Brother Xu needs anything in Yunlai Prefecture, I
will do my best.”
Xu Bai nodded.” Alright, I’ll help you with this.’”‘
The person in charge of Yunlai Manor was Yun Zihai, so it was necessary to have a good relationship with him.
Xu Bai still hoped to have more progress bars here, so he naturally needed them.
In the future, he was in charge of the Yin Posthouse and the Yun Zihai. He was in charge of the Yun Lai Mansion. The traffic and the mansion were all occupied.
This meant that in the future, the two of them would have the final say in Yunlai Manor.
“If that’s the case, I’ll go to the Yin Posthouse first. Inform me if you make any movements, and I’ll come over to help you. “Xu Bai said.
The Yin Posthouse was his main goal. He had to rush over and take a look.
“Wait, Brother Xu.” Yun Zihai raised his hand to stop Xu Bai and said,””Before you go, I still have something to ask of you. It’s an especially important matter.”
Xu Bai waved his hand and put on a forthright look. “Bring it up, just don’t go too far.”
Yun Zihai was speechless.
When he saw Xu Bails particularly forthright action, he thought that he was asking him to mention it casually. In the end, he said that it was fine as long as he didn’t go too far. He felt helpless.
Of course, he had been with Xu Bai for a long time, so he naturally knew what kind of personality Xu Bai had, so he didn’t take it seriously.
“I want to borrow Liu Er from Brother Xu.” Yun Zihai pointed at Liu Er.” I’m indeed short of manpower here, and I don’t trust these people. Just take this autopsy report as an example. There are many things that are worth pondering. For example, many details have been omitted. It’s obvious that he’s just waiting to die.””
Borrowing people was also a helpless move. Yun Zihai only suggested this idea because he really had no other choice. After all, he really did not have anyone he could trust right now.
Xu Bai raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Er.””Sure.”
Of course, Liu Er did not object at all. He bent down and said,”l’ll listen to your orders.”
In his opinion, the escort master and Lord Yun had a good relationship. As a sensible person, he naturally knew what he should and should not do.
“Thank you, Brother Xu.” Liu Yun thanked him by sea.
Xu Bai waved his hand and said,” Alright, since that’s the case, let’s do as we discussed. When the time comes, give me a message. I’ll return to the Yin Posthouse first.’
Yun Zihai nodded, indicating that there was no problem.
After the matter here was settled, Xu Bai did not stay any longer. He left Liu Er in the government office and left for the Yin Posthouse.
The Yin Posthouse of Yunlai Prefecture was also located in a remote wilderness. After all, it was a posthouse that could only be used by special people. It was easy to expose the open side of the place.
Before he left, Yun Zihai gave him his appointment letter and the map to the Yin Posthouse. Xu Bai followed the map and hurried along the way. Nothing strange happened along the way, which made Xu Bai a little disappointed.
The more he attacked, the more flaws he had. He was now hoping that the other party would casually attack a few times so that he could find the flaws and find out the true culprit behind it.
Unfortunately, the enemy hiding in the dark was obviously not easy to deal with. They knew that if they attacked casually, they might leave behind clues that would exoose them. so thev did not choose to ambush Xu Bai in the dark.
The journey was indeed very long. He did not ride a horse and only relied on his legs to travel. It took him nearly two hours to arrive at the Yin Posthouse. This Yin Posthouse was the largest Yin Posthouse Xu Bai had ever seen. Standing at the entrance, he could see the vast area and the many people who were waiting in front of the stalls.
Not only were there many stalls, but there were also many residences.
These houses were built very simply, but from the structure, they looked unusually sturdy. It was obvious that they could accommodate people who came and went.
Among them, the most eye-catching house had a slightly better appearance and was easier to recognize.
Xu Bai’s arrival attracted the attention of many posthouse workers. Some of them exchanged glances with each other before lowering their heads to look after their stalls. They were clearly not very interested.
In front of the largest house, a middle-aged man dressed in gray stood at the door. He held an account book in his hand as if he was recording something.
Xu Bai walked over and his gaze stopped at the middle-aged man’s waist.
There was a sign hanging there, a sign that belonged to the station chief.
Presumably, this was the chief of the Yin Posthouse in Yunlai Prefecture, the person he was going to take over.
The middle-aged man seemed to have sensed someone approaching. He stopped his bookkeeping and looked up at the direction of the footsteps.
When he saw Xu Bai, he was clearly stunned. However, when he turned his gaze and saw the Ghost Head Blade at Xu Bai’s waist, he quickly reacted..
