Yang Congyi knew that his life had been saved since he first saw Zhang Tixing more than ten days ago, because Zhang Tixing believed what he said, even if he only answered two words.

For more than three months, he had become accustomed to life in prison, eating and sleeping every day. However, he was not idle, when he couldn't sleep, he meditated and practiced, and when he rested, he practiced the Five Dragons Hibernation Method, according to the mantra taught by the old Tao, he practiced for half an hour at four times a day, and now the practice has become a part of his life, because he believes that the old Tao will let people save him and will not let him die.

When Zhang Zhiyuan came to the prison again to talk to him, he knew that he could be acquitted, and he agreed to Zhang Zhiyuan's proposal to assist in the investigation of the case without considering it.

Lao Dao said that the disciples let the younger generations cultivate humane, although he is not yet a formal Taoist disciple, but after learning other people's things, it is basically enough, to cultivate humanity in the world like them, then assisting in the investigation of the case is the beginning of his cultivation.

As for Lao Dao saying that he can't see through him, he can't see him clearly, he still believes it, those fortune tellers who boast of knowing three hundred years before and three hundred years after knowing three hundred years are just inferred from the reality of the person in front of him and the social relations he has, and he has almost no social relations, at least not really related to this world, so Lao Dao said that he can't see clearly. He knew in his heart that he was not an extraordinary person as the old Tao said, in fact, he was very ordinary, but he came to the wrong place.

In a strange place, Yang Congyi originally wanted to live in the mountains for the rest of his life, but after the uncle who saved his life taught him some martial arts, he let him leave and went to Lin'an to inquire about the recent situation of a big man in the dynasty. Yang Congyi asked the man's name, but the uncle didn't tell him, only said that he was a very powerful person in Lin'an. Since he was driven out, let's go out of the mountains and go to Lin'an to feel the prosperity of the capital of the Song Dynasty.

Who knows that just after coming out of the mountain, he didn't go far before he encountered bad luck, and he was involved in a bloody case and was imprisoned. I thought I was going to die like that, but I didn't know that an old way suddenly appeared, and he passed on the secret method and coached the skills, and talked about the three ways of heaven, earth and man, and he had to go with the flow, since this is the case, then let it be. While waiting, he really waited for good news, and he admired the unfathomable old way very much. Now the four words of going with the flow have taken root in his mind, and I am afraid that the future road will be affected by these four words, let it be, this is what he thinks at this time. He doesn't want to think about the future, just take care of the present, anyway, he comes and goes without worry, and he walks lightly.

In the past three months of practice, he can now clearly feel the internal breath surging in his body, in order to verify whether these internal breaths are internal strength, he slapped the ground and hit the wall, but he could only feel the pain in his hands. But it doesn't matter, it's already amazing to have this effect, and Yang Congyi is very happy to feel its existence.

In the past three months, he has lived in prison very regularly, and he has a lot of time to practice, and he may not have much time to practice after he gets out of here.

In previous years, Yang Congyi could always eat moon cakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival, whether he bought them or made them, but this year he is destined not to eat them.

The day after tomorrow is the day of execution, and the cell boss reminded him early this morning, asking him if he had any last words to keep, and if he did, he would write them as soon as possible, and he had to prepare paper and pen for him, and he said that there was no one at home, so there was no need to write a letter.

The cell boss shook his head when he heard this, thinking that if he had relatives, he would not commit robbery and murder, and he would be bold when he was alone.

Yang Congyi has been practicing since early in the morning, and he has nothing to do now. The day after tomorrow is the execution day approved by the imperial court, although Zhang Tixing did not tell him when he can be released, but he believes that the day after tomorrow will not kill him.

He lived very comfortably in prison, meditating and practicing his skills and sleeping, and was not affected by the beheading of the day after tomorrow.

In the eyes of the other prisoners and jailers, this man is a madman who kills without blinking, he is not afraid of killing, and naturally he is not afraid of being killed, and they all feel that cutting off this guy's head is simply cheap for him, and he should be allowed to taste torture every day, let him know that he is afraid, let him know that he is afraid, and let him know that he is in awe. But they can't be the master, they don't have that kind of power, so even if they have to be punished the day after tomorrow, he is still so free and casual, he eats when he should eat, sleeps when he should sleep, and he can't do anything about the itchy teeth that everyone hates.

The day passed quickly, and he couldn't see or hear the excitement on the street outside the Mid-Autumn Festival. After the oil lamp was lit, he knew that today had passed again, and he didn't know when the waiting assistance in handling the case would start, nor did he know how far the case had been investigated.

He hoped that he hadn't caught the bandits yet, so that he would have a chance to face the bandits in person, and he didn't know what their expressions would be when he saw them again, whether they were surprised or angry. It's interesting to think about.

Yang Congyi and the others didn't let him wait too long. After dinner, Zhang Tixing's subordinates came, along with the county magistrate.

Under Chen Zhixian's orders, the cell boss opened the cell door and handed over the prisoner to Zhang Tixing's subordinates. Mentioning the prisoner at night, and he is still a death row prisoner, although it is unconventional, he does not dare to ask the county magistrate, watching them take the death row prisoner out of the prison, in addition to feeling strange is abnormal, but this is none of his business, even if something happens, it is the county magistrate who is responsible.

From the time they got out of prison, the three of them didn't say a word until they came to Zhang Zhiyuan's residence and saw Zhang Zhiyuan.

After Zhang Peng closed the door, he took out the clean clothes that had been prepared for Yang Congyi to change into.

Yang Congyi didn't ask much, it was a good thing to be able to come out, quickly changed his clothes, and waited for further instructions from them.

After Zhang Zhiyuan waited for Yang Congyi to change his clothes, he took out a letter and showed it to him unhurriedly, and said, "Yang Congyi, Master Mo Youmo, the former servant of the Ministry of Officials, personally repaired a book to prove that his father and daughter were indeed saved by you by sacrificing their lives to avoid being killed." Master Mo said in the letter that the two of them were too frightened that day, and immediately after they got out of trouble, they stayed away from the dangerous place, and they did not care about your safety, and almost killed you, which is really ashamed. He told me to save your life and repay you for your kindness in the future. If you are innocently imprisoned for four months, the government will compensate you. From now on you are free. ”

Yang Congyi knelt down and kowtowed, "Lord Xie." ”

Zhang Zhiyuan personally helped him up, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You are young and chivalrous, don't be resentful of the world and the government because of this misunderstanding, those who have become great things since ancient times have perseverance, don't easily change your original intention because of a small thing." ”

Yang Congyi hurriedly replied respectfully, "Master Xie's teachings, I must keep them in mind." ”

Zhang Zhiyuan smiled, "That's good." I told you two days ago that I would assist in the investigation of the case, and I need your assistance tonight, no problem, right? ”

Yang Congyi said, "No problem, my body is all right now, it's best for me to go and fight that gang of bandits in person." ”

Zhang Zhiyuan said with a smile, "It's a good thing that young people are energetic, but there may be casualties when the murderer is arrested, and the government will do it yourself, so you don't have to go into danger anymore, just identify the murderer." ”

Yang Congyi replied with some disappointment, "Then I will obey the arrangement of the adults." ”

Chen Zhixian stood aside, he had been embarrassed for a long time, and at this time, Zhang Zhiyuan had already finished talking about business, and hurriedly seized the gap and said sincerely, "Yang Yishi, this county was not careful in handling the case at the beginning, so that you were wronged and spent four months in prison, I really don't want to go, I hope you will bear with me." ”

Yang Congyi said, "Don't mind, adults, the matter has passed." ”

Zhang Zhiyuan said in a round game, "Chen Zhixian should not blame himself, just know that his mistakes can be corrected." Yang Congyi is a chivalrous warrior with a broad heart, how can he take such things to heart. Come, let's replace wine with tea to relieve our suspicions. With that, he picked up his teacup.

Chen Zhixian hurriedly picked up a cup of tea, and Zhang Peng handed a cup of tea to Yang Congyi, and the three of them gathered to drink together.

Zhang Zhiyuan said with a smile, "This matter has been revealed, everyone should not mention it again, sit first." Chen Zhixian, tell me about your harvest today. ”

Everyone sat down, and Yang Congyi sat down next to Zhang Peng.

Chen Zhixian cleared his throat and said, "The arresters and servants sent out today heard a lot of news, and brought back a total of eighteen suspicious people, all of whom were standing in the public court at this time, waiting for interrogation. I don't know how adults are going to do it? ”

Zhang Zhiyuan asked, "Have you made any further investigation of these people?" ”

Chen Zhixian said, "The officials in the yamen basically know these people, and they have heard about everything in the family, coupled with the shortage of manpower and the relationship between time, we have not done a closer detailed investigation." ”

Zhang Zhiyuan said, "Chen Zhixian, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and on the occasion of the family reunion, it is not good to bring people to the hall?" ”

Chen Zhixian had to admit his mistake and said, "The lower official was negligent." ”

Zhang Zhiyuan said, "Forget it, go and recognize people as soon as possible, and let them go back if there is no suspicion." Let's go together. ”

Chen Zhixian nodded yes.

Zhang Zhiyuan turned his head and asked, "Yang Congyi, how sure are you that gang of bandits to recognize them?" ”

Yang Congyi replied seriously, "I've met once, and I have an impression, as long as I am here, I will definitely be able to recognize it." ”

Zhang Zhiyuan said, "Okay, it's up to you tonight." Zhang Peng, take a black scarf to cover his face. ”

Zhang Peng took a black towel and gave it to Yang Congyi to cover his face.

After a little preparation, the four of them immediately walked towards the county hall hall.
