The wind was bitterly cold, the goose-feather snow was falling endlessly, and the earth was white. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

In such bad weather, there should have been few pedestrians passing by in this rugged post road, but there was a young man in Confucian clothes standing in the middle of the road with an umbrella.

"Drive, drive!" In the distance, a middle-aged man is riding a horse and rushing to come, and the white clothes and white horses seem to be integrated with the world against the background of the flying snow.

When he saw the horse and was about to force forward, the young man had no intention of avoiding it, and it was impossible to guess whether he was pretending to be confused or doing it on purpose.

"Butt!" The young man did not avoid it, and the middle-aged man had to quickly put away his horse and whip and stopped.

The young man glanced back at the snow-covered city behind him, and then at the middle-aged man dressed as a merchant on a horse, and sighed softly.

"It's really unlucky to get to the capital when you run into you, a roadblocker." Seeing that the middle-aged man was scolding himself, the young man was not angry, but there was a little anxiety between his eyebrows.

The young man saw that the middle-aged man had no intention of giving way, and was about to step forward to talk to him, but he heard the middle-aged man say to himself fiercely: "Bold fanatic, do you know that if you stop an official for private affairs, you will go to prison!" ”

The snow stopped suddenly, and the young man slowly lowered his umbrella, revealing a sunny smiling face. He looked at the middle-aged man in front of him who was already pressing the hilt of his sword and said with a smile: "Of course I know that you are an official messenger, from Liaodong, and your task is to submit important official documents to the imperial court. ”

"Why do you say that I am an official in Liaodong?" You must know that in order to deliver this important official document, the middle-aged man dressed up all the way in disguise and hurried in a low-key manner, which did not attract anyone's attention at all. Just before leaving, no one in the barracks except the general himself knew that he was going to the capital, and they all thought that he had gone back to his hometown to visit relatives, but the young man in front of him could see through his origin at a glance, how could he not be surprised.

"I also know that you are originally from the capital city, and you only went to Liaodong to join the army five years ago." The young man looked at him with suspicion on his face, and said to him with a smile.

The middle-aged man couldn't even speak this time, but he had to admit in his heart that the strange man in front of him was not wrong at all.

"Are you a god?" Years of military career made him feel vigilant, and he didn't know whether the man in front of him was friend or foe.

"I'm not a charlatan, I'm just a quick catcher, a small character in the yamen of the capital." The young man's attitude is neither humble nor arrogant.

"Catch fast? Flash to the name. ”

"In Xia Yin Tiancheng, I have worshiped adults here." Seeing that the middle-aged man seemed to have let go of his knot, Yin Tiancheng reported to his home.

"I heard that there is a person in the capital who is like a god in the case, it must be your Excellency?" The middle-aged man hurriedly dismounted and saluted him, and there was more respect in his words. His instantaneous change of attitude was already expected by Yin Tiancheng, after all, he has been quite famous in the rivers and lakes in recent years.

Yin Tiancheng is a new young talent in the officialdom in the past two years, it is said that his martial arts are mediocre, but he has cracked nine major cases that have caused a sensation in the world one after another, and these criminals are not only the officialdom magnates who kill people without blinking, but also the masters of the rivers and lakes who are famous in the martial arts. The means of committing crimes are also extremely hidden, and they can even be described as seamless, but in the end, they were all arrested after he saw through them.

You must know that it is generally easy to solve a crime, but it is not necessarily easy to catch a criminal. Even if you catch him and escort him back to Beijing along the way, you not only have to prevent his plot and escape, but also deal with all kinds of rescues from his friends on the road, and the hardships can be imagined.

But as long as these people meet Yin Tiancheng, who has low martial arts, it is like meeting a nemesis, and there is no chance of escaping at all. Everyone was honestly imprisoned by him, waiting for the verdict of the government, how many people in the world can do it?

"Exactly down there." Yin Tiancheng clasped his hands into fists and saluted him in return.

The middle-aged man smiled bitterly: "I was cautious all the way and hid my identity to enter Beijing, but I didn't expect to find out the news in advance for Brother Yin." ”

"Before I met you, I didn't know that you went to Beijing to deliver official documents."

"And how do you know my identity?" The middle-aged man asked him in surprise.

Yin Tiancheng said with a smile: "Although your speech is a pure Beijing accent, it is mixed with a little local colloquial language in Liaodong, and it is often said that the local accent is difficult to change, which is enough to prove that you have lived in the capital for a long time and then went to Liaodong." The first thing you said to me was that you were an official messenger, so you are most likely to have the following two identities, one is a post officer who delivers letters, and the other is a government official who sends you on business. However, after careful observation, I ruled out both of the above possibilities. ”

"How do you conclude that I'm not a post boy or a servant?" The middle-aged man became more and more curious, desperate to know the answer.

"Your body is thin but vigorous, your skin is dark, and your temples are slightly raised, which means that you are diligent in your daily practice and martial arts. I have also heard that General Chen, who guards Liaodong, is strict and meritocracy, and that the capital has recruited soldiers to Liaodong on a large scale, except for the one recruited when Goryeo invaded our border with China five years ago, so I venture to speculate that you are a soldier under General Chen. ”

"Brother, you really have a false reputation, this is the first time I have seen a witty person like you. Yes, I am General Chen's personal soldier, but I keep the official document with me in my arms, how do you know that I am here to deliver the official document and not other official business? ”

Hearing Liaodong's soldiers praise him, Yin Tiancheng then answered the doubts in his heart: "You can ride this horse is a rare good horse in the post station, specially used to transport emergency documents, and this horse foams at the mouth, shoulders and neck are already drenched in sweat, this is caused by extreme running fatigue, if it is not for sending urgent documents, Yin can't think of other reasons to make you so unhindered and eager to rush to the capital." ”

"Admire! I ......" Before Liaodong's pro-soldier finished speaking, Yin Tiancheng saw that an evil spirit-like lightning suddenly broke the sky in the sky in front of him, and his vicious posture seemed to want to split the silver-white earth in half before he stopped. Yin Tiancheng couldn't help but wonder: At this time, it was already six or nine seasons, not to mention that it was cold and windy, and there was snow in the winter, why was there lightning? And after the lightning, there was no dull thunder in response, so why was the weather so unusual?

Liaodong's soldiers turned their backs to the lightning but never saw this anomaly, so he asked Yin Tiancheng: "Brother, are you here to pick me up into the city?" ”

Yin Tiancheng shook his head and said, "I'm ashamed, my lord, I didn't know that you would come to deliver the official document, I came to arrest the murderer." ”

"Do you need my help?"

"It's not a question of whether you help or not." Yin Tiancheng sighed and said, "I now know that the murderer is going to kill you." ”

"What, Brother Yin, you're not kidding, are you?"

"No joke, and I would advise you not to go into the city, for if I'm not mistaken, you're the murderer's next target." Yin Tiancheng said with a stern expression.

"Is that true?" Liaodong's soldiers asked in surprise.

"Recently, Jingshi has not been very peaceful, and there have been a series of murders. After months of investigation, I found out that all these cases were committed by one person. Moreover, the next person he wants to kill is the person who is passing by here at this time, and the place of the crime should be in front, less than a mile away from the gate of Jingshi. So please listen to me, find a nearby hotel to stay in for a night, and you can enter Beijing again tomorrow and be safe and sound. ”

After listening to Yin Tiancheng's words, the Liaodong soldiers couldn't help but hesitate, if this was said by ordinary people, he would never believe it. But these words came from the mouth of Yin Tiancheng, who was known as the first god of the Beijing Division, and he couldn't help but weigh it, not to mention Yin Tiancheng's ability, which he had seen just now.

To enter the city, or not to enter? Liaodong's pro-soldiers began to hesitate.

"Hey, hey, hey!" Yin Tiancheng was about to continue to persuade the Liaodong soldiers, but suddenly heard a ghostly howl of laughter falling from the sky, which made him feel stunned when he heard it.

The laughter dissipated, and what appeared in front of Yin Tiancheng and the two was a man in black who was tightly wrapped in his body. The snow was still falling silently, but the man in black was clean. It was as if the sky was full of snowflakes and was busy avoiding the dark aura emanating from him.
