"Because no one knows the deceased, he has drawn an image and posted it outside, but no one has reported it to the official, so it can be seen that this person is either a newcomer from outside, or ......"

Qian Tong got down to business, and finally had a little bit of an appearance as an official, and said it with a straight look.

When Liu Bei heard this, his eyes lit up: "Either you don't live in the city." ”

"Your Excellency.

Except for these two explanations, it really doesn't make sense. ”

"And what did you find?" Liu Bei asked, if you want your subordinates to serve, you naturally have to give them praise and encouragement, and there are many kinds of appreciation and encouragement, one of which is - praise.

Qian Tong was recognized and very satisfied, with an excited light on his face: "Yesterday, the boss of Cuihuaju found me and said that a merchant had drunk too much, talked nonsense in his mouth, and was coaxed by everyone, and then he said that he knew the dead body of the Zheng family's carriage and horse shop, and was ridiculed by everyone, saying that you know why don't you go to the official to get some rewards, and the merchant said that he didn't dare to be afraid of being implicated, and everyone laughed and said that he was open-mouthed." ”

"Well, this is the present world, if you don't check him out, he won't be able to leave, let alone reward, but it's someone else, not me, I'm very promised."

The speaker had no intention of listening, so the young man in the shop took it as an interesting story and told it to the other men, and finally went to the owner's house.

The owner approached me, told me this information, and asked me to make a decision. ”

"As an official, I have the duty to speak out, but as a representative of the county's businessmen, I don't want to say it, no one knows what trouble I will cause to others, and how much I have to do to get out of it......"

"Hey, it's not easy for the people to live......" Liu Bei sighed.

"Although the time I have been here for a short time, I can also see that I really want to do something, and my subordinates tossed and turned all night, and then I decided to meet my lord."

"I'm going to displease you, what will you do?"

"I'll still tell the information, but from now on, respect, and stay away."

"Got it, you go on."

From the very beginning, the words of the two have always been incoherent, and they have digressed for 100,000 miles many times, which can be described as the donkey's lips are not the horse's mouth...... To put it bluntly, in fact, they have been testing each other, testing whether the other party can trust and become their own people.

"The deceased's name is Xu Mao, a martial artist."

"Oh...... Hey, go on......"

"Well, that's all."

"Poof, me, are there some? It's just a few words, and you're going to delay me for half an hour, you're embarrassed......"

"Uh-uh, I don't want to be ...... like that either"

When Qian Tong said this, he looked at Liu Bei with small eyes and resentment: If you don't complain about you, you will be idle and nonsense, oh, when it comes, you still blame me, it is unreasonable.

"Come, come, where are all the people dead? Do you still have me in your eyes, do you want to die? ”

Liu Beitie's face was blue, and his voice became louder and louder.

"Uh, phew, didn't you say that you wanted to talk to Qian Kuanzi in detail and let me break everyone up, what are you shouting?" Hu Yu's eyes are not good, why are you the official, I, I will give you a face.

）））

"The villain Shi Mao sees the adult."

"Well, get up and talk."

"Master Xie."

"Don't be afraid, just tell what you know, the official will not embarrass you, and keep his promise."

"Master Xie."

"I arrived in Huai County with the goods two days ago, and when I saw the portrait posted, I felt that it was very similar to a person in Wude, and you also know that there will always be some discrepancies between portraits and people, so I don't dare to assert that this is the person I know, and I don't dare to report to the official."

"Well, this is true, but even if it is not the same person, it can be regarded as a mind, a clue, and the government will naturally not blame you, why don't you want to come."

"This ...... Adults don't know, we have to run around collecting goods and selling goods, and the time is very tight.

Once the report is reported to the official, it will be necessary to assist in the investigation, and it is better to say that it is right, but if it is wrong, the government will delay time and waste manpower and material resources for this, and it will be angry with us, and at that time, we will always have to pay the price if we want to get out, so ......"

"Well, what you said is not false, and this official will not blame you.

But you must know that after all, this is a fresh life that instantly turns into a cold corpse, and we, as normal people, still have to have compassion and anger, and we can't stay out of it, otherwise our conscience will be uneasy. ”

"The lesson of the adults is that Xiaomin has not rested well in the past two days, so he went out to drink, and then he lost his words after drinking, and this is where he is...... It can be seen that everything is destined by providence, and there are some things that people cannot completely stay out of. ”

"Then don't panic, tell me what you know, and the official will ensure that no one will know that you have been here except for a few people present, and will protect you from leaving this place safely."

"Master Xie. Then I'll just say it. ”

"I'm a Wude person, and the person in the portrait looks a lot like a person from Wude.

His name is Xu Mao, and when his father was still alive, the family had a lot of land and property, and he had no worries about food and clothing.

He is the only child in the family, so he has been spoiled since he was a child, and he has been naughty since he was a child, and he is criticized by everyone for not doing business.

When he was eighteen years old, his parents died one after another, and no one could control him, so he became even more lawless.

But after all, he has some property, and he likes to drink and visit some places in the wind and snow, so he has some connections with many people in the county, and no one can control him.

After a few years, the family's money was almost lost by him, and he began to sell the things in it, and finally even sold the land in exchange for some money for him to continue eating, drinking, and merrymaking.

Later, when there was nothing left, he colluded with some ruffians and began to blackmail the township, forcibly buying and selling, and so on.

Everyone was persecuted a lot, but they only dared to scold him behind their backs......"

Liu Bei listened quietly, he was a person who had taken the wrong path, alas, there was really some truth in raising a poor son and a rich daughter.

"And where is he now?"

Shi Mao shook his head: "I haven't seen him for a few months, some people say that he was killed and abandoned in the wilderness, some people say that he ran away with others, and some people say that he was arrested by the government and sent to the north to fill the army...... There are many opinions, but there is no accurate word. ”

"Well, in this case, I'll take you to see it myself, yes or no, to see if I can give an accurate word."

"Yes."

）））

"Yes, it's him, it's ......him" Shi Mao looked at the frozen corpse on the ice bed, and he didn't know whether it was frozen or frightened, his face turned pale, his body shook and his words stumbled, but he finally confirmed that this was it, Xu Mao.

"Hoo ......"

The people present breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had unloaded a thousand burdens, and knowing the name, they had taken a big step forward and had the direction to find.

"Quickly send someone to Wude, investigate Xu Mao's background clearly, remember, especially who you have an enmity with, who you are very close to, don't let go of any clues......"

"Yes."

Hu Lie agreed, went out, and soon, the horses' hooves burst and the wolf smoke rushed to the adjacent Wude County in the north.

"Do you know any relatives or friends he has in Huaixian?"

"I don't know about this...... Hey, I'm also running around, I seem to have heard people talk about it, Xu Mao and a guy named ...... called, Zhao Wang's people walked closer. ”

"Zhao Wang? It's ...... him."

ps: The writing is limited, but it's also a kind of learning, so I'm struggling to insist, and I hope that the boss who thinks it's a little interesting can support it, look at the genuine recommendations, I'm afraid I'll lose confidence tomorrow......
