Chapter 19: The Power of Officialdom Can Crush You

  Chapter 19: The higher the official, the more you'll be squeezed to death

  Cangdiao......, more than a dozen prison guards behind him drew out their waist knives.

  "It's Cao Xing!"

  "That devil!" The hundred or more prisoners who had been released fled back in terror.

  "Hahaha......" Cao Xing, with a big beard and whiskers, burst out laughing and said: "Hou Cheng, how did you guard them? You actually let all the prisoners escape. Brothers, take up your arms, kill all those who resist, ahahahaha......" Cao Xing's eyes shone with excitement as he drew his sword and charged at the prisoners.

  "Sir, save me!"

  Cao Xing was a cruel man who often beat prisoners, and many prisoners were tortured to death by him. The prisoners saw this, cried out loudly and knelt down to beg Qin Feng for help.

  Qin Feng saw the newcomer instantly cut down three prisoners, extremely ruthless. His heart skipped a beat, but he still steeled himself and shouted: "Halt! What do you want to do?"

  "Hahaha......, these prisoners have rebelled, of course I will be cleared. Hmm, where did this little white face come from, brothers kill......" Although Qin Feng was not wearing a prisoner's uniform, Cao Xing still wanted him to look good and charged over with his knife.

  "My god, I've met an unreasonable person! Qin Feng was at a loss for what to do and could only stand there stubbornly."

  "It's impossible for Cao Xing! This is the newly arrived Prison Officer Hou!" Houcheng hastily shouted.

  "What! New prison guard, Ma De, what's going on with that old man's position!" Cao Xing was taken aback by the words and stopped in his tracks, giving Qin Feng a vicious look up and down.

  Qin Feng secretly wiped the sweat, thinking that if Hou Cheng didn't come out, he would have to turn around and run away. Wasn't this Cao Xing the one who later shot Xiahou Dun blind? Indeed ruthless!

  "Ts'ao Hsing, you must be more respectful. This is Ch'in Feng, personally appointed by Yang Piao himself. Come quickly and pay your respects." said Hou Cheng hastily.

  "Hmph." Cao's expression turned cold, and he didn't bother with formalities. "What's going on here? What about these prisoners?" The subordinate beside him stepped forward to explain the situation.

  "What? Visitation, parole, human rights?" Cao's strange eyes sized up Qin Feng again, "Haha... scholars know nothing. Prisoners have dogshit human rights, farting is just a breeze."

  The prisoners looked at Cao Xing with fearful and angry eyes, it was this man who made them suffer more in prison. But the person who pinched himself to death was like pinching an ant to death, the prisoners who could only endure reversely, placed their last hope on Qin Feng.

  "Hahaha……" Seeing the fearful eyes of the prisoners, Cao Xing was extremely pleased with himself. His gaze swept across all the prisoners, who lowered their heads one by one. Finally, he glanced at Qin Feng with disdain and shouted: "Guards, take these prisoners away! Let whatever nonsense about 'human rights' go to hell!"

  The prison guard was also cunning and hesitated for a moment upon hearing this.

  "What are you all staring at? Don't want to work anymore?" Cao Xing shouted angrily as he saw no one taking action.

  With power in hand, he immediately took charge. This Han Dynasty was still not chaotic. Qin Feng patted himself on the back, smiled coldly and said: "Cao Xing, I think you don't want to do it anymore."

  "What!" Cao Xing glared at Qin Feng furiously, as if he could swallow him whole. Dammit, where did this little brat come from and steal my spot?!

  Qin Feng sternly shouted: "Cao Xing, you have abused your power and arbitrarily harmed the lives of prisoners. You disobeyed your superiors and refused to accept discipline. I hereby announce in front of everyone that you are dismissed from office. Take off your official uniform and remove your sword, get out!"

  Cao Xing originally gave a lot of money to Ji Ran this time, just for the sake of this prison governor position. Who would have thought that Qin Feng came and wanted him to roll away. "Bullshit..., you're just a newcomer..."

  "Hou Chenghe is here!" Qin Feng shouted coldly.

  "Ah......, I am at your service!" Hou Cheng hastily saluted and said.

  "Take down this lawless Cao Xing, strip off his official uniform and take away his sword, and give him a good beating with the official club!"

  "This... sir, I'm afraid it would be better to report this to Lord Ji Yan."

  "Hmm!" Qin Feng glared at him, thinking to himself that he had not served as an official for a short time, and shouted: "This official will personally report to Lord Yang Biao..."

  "Hahaha......!" Cao Xing saw that no one paid attention to Qin Feng's words and was unhappy, shouting: "Who dares to move me!"

  "On the orders of Qin Feng, sir, Cao Xing, take off your traveling clothes and get out of here." Then, a tall, robust prison guard with a blue face emerged from the crowd, his height exceeding eight feet.

  "Ben Xi!" Cao Xing was startled, and had actually forgotten this person.

  Bian Xi is now a Yellow Turban rebel, and the most ruthless thing in his life is Cao Xing's greed for bribes and disregard for the law, harming the common people. Qin Feng's words to the prisoner just now made Bian Xi very respectful, so now he led several Yellow Turbans out, eyeing Cao Xing menacingly.

  Qin Feng didn't expect Cheng Yaojin to suddenly appear halfway, it seems that there are also factions in the Luoyang prison. This person is called Bian Xi? He heard the name and felt somewhat familiar, but couldn't think of it for a while. Never mind, he might as well take advantage of it. He said: "Bian Xi, take people to capture this Cao Xing."

  "Yes!"

  "Hahaha......, Ba Xi, you come and try it out, see if the blade in my hand is sharp or not!" Cao Xing shouted sternly.

  "Hmph, your blade is sharp, but mine has never been dull!" With a clang, Bian Xi drew out the waist knife in his hand and clashed with Cao Xing.

  Ding ding dang dang, sword lights and shadows, two people fighting hard to distinguish, the surrounding people were all stunned.

  "Hou Cheng......" Qin Feng let out a cold snort and glared at Hou Cheng angrily.

  "I obey the adult's order!" Hou Cheng made his own choice, thinking to himself: Cao Xing, you've finally met your downfall due to your nature. What's the use of being familiar with Ji Yan, this is Yang Bi's personally appointed official, do you want to rebel or not?!

  Hou Cheng swung his sword and joined the battle, Bian Xi got help, kicked Cao Xing with one foot, and immediately knocked him to the ground. The prison guards immediately took a stand, rushed up, stripped off Cao Xing's official uniform, removed his waist card, and tied him up.

  "A hundred killing rods." Qin Feng sneered, thinking to himself that you little brat dare to fight me, here I am the one in control. Indeed, in any era, power is supreme, and with power, many people will naturally die for you.

  At Cao's fierce rebuke, the jailers immediately threw him to the ground and beat him with their clubs.

  Rustling sounds...

  "Ah yo…… Ah yo……." Cao Xing was rolling on the ground in pain, wherever he rolled, a stick would fall down. The prison guards were experts at this, extremely accurate, and soon Cao Xing was beaten until his skin split open and his flesh burst forth.

  The prisoners all felt relieved and grateful for Qin Feng's kindness.

  Cao Xing only had cruelty and bullying, but not much backbone. After being beaten by a stick, he immediately surrendered and cried out: "Sir, spare my life, spare my life! I dare not do it again, I dare not!"

  Hou Cheng said with a dark tone: "You didn't have this kind of vision from an early age. The bigger the official, the more people are oppressed. Now it's too late to regret!"

  "Give him a good beating!" Qin Feng said with a cold smile.

  "Oh dear, oh dear, sir... sir! You're a humanitarian, a humanitarian, spare me!" Cao Xing cried out.

  "Hmph, human rights are for the common people to talk about. You're a despicable person who's beyond redemption, and you still want to talk about human rights? Guards, take this scoundrel away and give him a good beating!" Qin Feng shouted when he saw that the beating was almost enough, as killing someone would be hard to explain.

  The jailers exerted their strength and beat Cao Xing, who rolled all the way out of the gate.

  Qin Feng displayed his official authority, punishing while naturally not forgetting to reward. He walked up to Bian Xi and smiled: "Bian Xi, you're doing well. From today on, you'll take over Cao Shen's position as the head of this prison."

  The prison guards regretted not acting sooner, if only they had known that the new superior had such a powerful method, they would have been the first to rush up. They thought to themselves, next time when the superior gives an order, they will definitely be the first to rush up.

  Hou Cheng was shocked in his heart, this is a combination of kindness and severity. This new official has some means. At first, Hou Cheng did not take the new scholar-like official, Shangguan, too seriously, after all, the officials here in the prison were different from those in the outer government offices. But now, seeing Qin Feng's methods, he didn't dare to have a hint of disdain anymore.

  Cao Xing was cruel and violent, often flogging prisoners without regard for their lives. The prisoners breathed a sigh of relief when Qin Feng arrived, feeling that he was indeed a good official, a man of benevolence and righteousness. Luoyang Prison was a place where all sorts of people were mixed together. Qin Feng's reputation for benevolence spread through the mouths of released prisoners, initially appearing in the Jianghu world of Eastern Han.
