Chapter 9: Plainclothes Catch Fast

Today is the day when he officially works in the government, and he is a little proud when he thinks of this, but he didn't expect to be a civil servant after coming here, but before he was dressed neatly, the head catcher came to him and asked him not to wear a uniform first.

Before Xu Zizhen could say his question, he waved his hand: "Don't ask me, it's the adults who let you wear civilian clothes, if you have anything, you can ask the adults to go." After speaking, he didn't say anything to him, and dragged him to the inner hall.

Wen Chengyan was already sitting in the inner hall drinking tea, and when he saw Xu Zizhen coming, he smiled: "Zizhen, come and sit." ”

Xu Zizhen was also not polite, and sat down beside Wen Chengyan with a big grin: "My lord, you don't let me wear a public uniform, do you have another task arrangement?" ”

Wen Chengyan was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "You are smart, yes, this mansion does have other arrangements for you." Speaking of this, his expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "Early this morning, more than ten families came to report that their daughter was missing. ”

Xu Zizhen jumped up suddenly: "What? And kidnapping? ”

He couldn't help but be surprised, the four people arrested yesterday are still in prison at this time, but there are still women missing, obviously there are a lot of traffickers in this group, and they have no scruples about doing things, isn't this group today and the four arrested yesterday not the same group? But Xu Zizhen didn't believe that there was such a coincidence.

Wen Chengyan said: "The missing women are all missing in Suzhou City, and since yesterday, the government has sent additional city defense personnel, and there is no reason to smuggle them out of the city. ”

Xu Zizhen was stunned for a moment, looked down at the clothes on his body, and nodded: "I understand." ”

He naturally knew what Wen Chengyan meant, he had just come to Suzhou, and it was clear that he had just come to the Great Song Dynasty, and there were few people who knew him, and there were even fewer people who knew him when he entered the government office, so it was most appropriate for him to wear civilian clothes to investigate this abduction case, so he could save the red hat and black pants and waist knife.

It's just that he soon hesitated a little, it's a good thing that no one in Suzhou knows him, the problem is that he is not familiar with this realm, how to check? Is it just running around and hitting the sky?

At this moment, someone suddenly walked in from outside the door and shouted at Wen Chengyan, "Uncle, are you looking for me?" ”

Xu Zizhen felt a little familiar when he heard this voice, and looked up, and it happened that the person also happened to look over, and the two of them were stunned when they saw it.

"Huh? Brother Xu? ”

"Hey! Brother Qian? ”

The two shouted out in unison, the person who came in was none other than Qian Tongzhi, who was the one who came out for Xu Zizhen when he met at the Ju Zhan yesterday.

The three of them were all surprised, and Wen Chengyan said in surprise: "Tongzhi, you and Zizhen know each other?" ”

Xu Zizhen didn't know what to say, he had only been here for two days, and he had met a few people in total, but he just met an acquaintance here.

"Isn't it, by the way, uncle, why is Brother Xu here?"

Wen Chengyan smiled: "Zizhen is now the catcher of Suzhou Mansion." ”

Qian Tongzhi's eyes widened in surprise: "Isn't it?" Uncle, did you let him be a scholar? ”

Wen Chengyan couldn't help but laugh: "Scholar? "Xu Zizhen broke into the thief's nest alone and rescued more than a dozen women, and he didn't fall behind at all when he fought with Lei Zhutou yesterday, he was completely a martial artist.

The two uncles and nephews have seen different things, so their understanding of Xu Zizhen is naturally different, Qian Tongzhi will tell him about the experience of meeting Xu Zizhen at the chrysanthemum exhibition yesterday, including Xu Zizhen's viewing of flowers and filling in the words into poems, and the fact that he was favored by Master Gu Yi and wanted to recommend him to the Beijing Xiuwentang.

The more Wen Chengyan listened, the more surprised he became, Qian Tongzhi had the intention to scare him by pronouncing the word of yesterday's poem, but his memory was really not so good, so he had to say embarrassedly: "Ahem...... Brother Xu, what was that word called yesterday? Drunken Flower Yin, huh? Please tell my uncle again. ”

Xu Zizhen couldn't hide from it, and he didn't want to lose Qian Tongzhi's enthusiasm, so he had to read it again according to him.

Wen Chengyan was completely shocked, he was a Jinshi of Zhenghe for five years, and he was a real scholar, so he could naturally distinguish between good and bad, in his opinion, even if he was afraid, he would not be able to write such a level of poetry.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that he had picked up a treasure, took a deep breath to adjust his mood, and said with a smile: "Zizhen, when you first came to Suzhou Mansion, Tongzhi accompanied you." ”

With Qian Tongzhi by his side, Xu Zizhen suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, Suzhou City is so big, where can those traffickers hide?

However, this idea was rejected by Xu Zizhen at noon, Suzhou City is not very big, but to find those thieves is undoubtedly a needle in the bottom of the sea, the whole morning has passed, Xu Zizhen's feet are about to break, but still no clues have been found.

"I said it's not a problem for us to go on like this." Without waiting for Xu Zizhen to speak, Qian Tongzhi complained first.

Xu Zizhen said helplessly: "Then what should I do?" These bastards are all kidnapping people on the road, even if they look for clues, they can't find them, so they can only continue to wander around and hit the sky. ”

At this moment, the two of them heard a burst of cheers not far ahead, and Xu Zizhen's energy suddenly came up.

"There's a lot of excitement, don't look at the bastard, go."

Ran to the front only to find that it was a show of art, a middle-aged man was dancing a big knife in the field, the sword wind and tiger sword shadow flashed, looking at it was full of domineering, a young girl behind looked at the weapon rack, there were a lot of swords, guns, swords and halberds on the top, and there was a young man holding a gong next to him.

After a big knife dance, the middle-aged man's face was not red and he was not panting, and he stood steadily in the field after closing the momentum, Xu Zizhen did not understand the knife technique, but he could also see that this man had a good foundation in stopping Yue Zhi, and he couldn't help but cheer.

The young man came to the person with a gong in his hand and shouted: "Uncles and uncles, the boy and his father and sister pass by Guibaodi, play a few ways to exchange some food money, and hope that the old and young masters have money to hold a money field, and those who have no money to hold a personal field." ”

There are also a lot of onlookers in the crowd, casually threw some copper coins in the gong, jingling for a while, the young man thanked while holding the gong around the field, and after a while the gong was piled up in a shallow layer.

At this time, I don't know who in the crowd shouted: "Wu Na man, your daughter looks like she is also a practicing family, but let her play something for us to see." ”

The man smiled, hugged his fists and said: "Since you guys can afford it, then we won't be hypocritical, Luo'er!" ”

"Hey!" The girl's voice was crisp, like a yellow bird who had just come out of the valley, she took a long sword on the weapon rack, walked to the field, blessed the crowd, and said coquettishly, "The little girl is not proficient in learning, please bear with me." With a flick of his wrist, the scabbard suddenly flew out of his back, and was impartially stuck on the weapon rack.

This hand was clean and neat, and immediately won a burst of applause, and the girl took advantage of the thunder of the color, and the long sword danced along a starting hand.

Xu Zizhen had never seen a long sword in the park before, not to mention that the sword dancer was still a big girl, which suddenly made him interested.

Looking closely, the girl was about twenty years old, tall and slim, and her skin was as white and tender as jade, not at all like the Jianghu people who were used to sleeping in the open air.

I don't know what the name of this set of swordsmanship is, at first I can still see the sword moves and footwork, but gradually the long sword dances faster and faster, and finally the whole figure is wrapped in a group of green shadows, and the person who is a little closer only feels a chill on his face, and the girl who dances the sword is obviously a few steps away from herself.

Just when everyone was dazzled, the girl suddenly screamed, and the shadow of the sword suddenly dispersed, revealing her graceful body, her face was slightly red, her forehead was faintly sweaty, and a pair of towering places on her chest also rose and fell with light gasps.

I'll it! This beautiful woman who practices kung fu is in good shape, the convex and the convex should be warped, Xu Zizhen only felt that her eyes were a little disobedient, she couldn't move her place, and even her heartbeat was fast.

The young man came to collect money in front of the people with a gong as usual, but at this moment, there was a commotion outside the crowd, and an arrogant broken gong sounded: "If you don't pay a mountain to Hua Ye, you dare to set up a stall in Suzhou City to practice tricks?" ”
