Chapter Twenty-Nine: Catching the Would-be Invaders Again

Luofeng County has made Zhao Mengyu more depressed recently.

Last month, there was a tragedy in Wanzi County, Linxian County, which scared him enough, although this incident did not happen in the territory under his management, but the murderer has not been found, if it is really a wolf, or a gang that is running around to commit crimes, it is a hidden danger.

What if you escape to him one day!

I was in a panic for a few days, and nothing seemed to happen. As soon as I put down my heart and took a breath, someone reported that there were Japanese robbers in Xianyan Town, although there were only two, but do you know if they came to look at the wind and explore the way?

Hurriedly ordered Wang Xiancheng to catch the people with fast people, but as a result, hundreds of people rushed over and beat mosquitoes with big sticks, but they didn't catch the last one, and injured a few people.

The most infuriating thing is that the widow didn't catch it, but he caught a few of his own people, saying that he was a traitor, he has been an official in this county for five years, and he has always been safe and sound, but he didn't expect that there was a traitor, this is okay?

After a few days of strict interrogation, Zhang Zhutou never let go, and insisted that someone framed him, and the two witnesses who said that Zhang Zhutou was a traitor, under their own questioning, also said that the light was not very good at night, and he was beaten dizzy, but he looked at the back and looked like it, and he was not sure.

Therefore, it is very difficult to close the case, and Zhang Zhutou can neither be released nor sentenced, and can only wait until there are further clues or evidence.

Every day, when you think of the wolf in your own jurisdiction, like two rats hiding in a hole in the ground, looking for it but not finding it, you don't care about it, it may suddenly come out of nowhere, bite you twice on your body, and feel very unhappy in your heart, there is a feeling that you can't use your strength, and you can't get out of your breath.

Therefore, Zhao Xianling's mood became worse and worse, his favorite poems also stopped, and he lost interest in playing chess, people were getting more and more anxious, and his subordinates saw his face, and they all automatically hid far away, Zhao Xianling couldn't see anyone in front of him, everyone avoided him, regarded him as a plague god, and became more and more unhappy in his heart.

In the early years, because it is located in the north and south, although the county seat is not big, but the geographical location is very important, so this place has become an important hub for merchants to trade between the north and the south, and the commercial tax has been relatively high, and it is also a rich county.

Since the implementation of the ban on the sea, fishermen can no longer do business at sea, most of them have changed careers to do other livelihoods, but the money accumulated over the years is still there, and many foreigners have come here in recent years, all of whom have a lot of savings, so Luofeng County is still much richer than many inland places.

The backyard of the county government is built, and it is deeply wonderful to get the garden in the south of the Yangtze River, and the scenery changes everywhere, there are rockeries, small pavilions, curved corridors, fish ponds, and it has been called one of the eight views of Luofeng by the people of good deeds.

At this time, Zhao Xian Ling strolls on the side of this lotus pond, looks at the lotus leaf field in the lotus pond, there are a few lotus flowers in bloom, there is a red-billed bird parked on the small pavilion opposite the lotus pond, is chirping, the sound is crisp and pleasant, the mood can't help but feel a lot better, the poetry that has not been seen for many days once again comes to my heart, ready to compose a poem.

Just after brewing two or three sentences, suddenly a rush of footsteps came from behind, and someone shouted: "Master, master......"

Looking back, it turned out to be Uncle Zhao, the porter in the yamen, this person is a relative of Zhao County, according to the generation, Zhao County's order also needs to call him uncle, because of his own family relationship, he was arranged to work in the gatehouse, not much life, but a lot of oil and water.

"What's so hasty?" Zhao Xianling asked suspiciously, interrupted from composing poetry, although he was dissatisfied, but he did not have a seizure.

"Master, just now a doctor from Jishengtang came to report the case, saying that they had found a wolf." Uncle Zhao is a reasonable person, although he is opposite his nephew, but in front of outsiders, he has always been known as a master.

"Really?" Zhao Xianling was taken aback, stepped forward, and looked directly at Uncle Zhao with blazing eyes.

"That's right, they said that the widow was still injured, and they asked us to send someone to arrest him quickly, and maybe we won't be able to catch it if it's too late." Uncle Zhao said.

"Take me to the person who reported the crime." Zhao Xian Ling grabbed the corner of his robe and walked forward, and Uncle Zhao hurriedly trotted all the way to follow.

***************************************

"That's the way it is, I hope the eldest master will send someone to arrest him quickly. My Jishengtang buddies have been tracked down, and they will make marks along the way, and they will definitely be able to arrest the Japanese invaders. Doctor Lu reported on the county order, his eyes looked at Zhao County's order, thinking about the reward he deserved, but he didn't dare to take the initiative to bring it up.

"Okay, Doctor Lu, if this matter is serious, it will definitely be indispensable for your benefits, now I will ask Wang Xiancheng to gather the team immediately, and you will follow them to arrest the widows." The prefectural commander excitedly threw his fist into the air.

Wang Xiancheng heard the accurate news of the Japanese robbers, and he was also very excited, and hurriedly gathered to arrest Kuai and Minzhuang, because this time there was no need to search for the whole city, it was directly surrounded and arrested, so he ordered twenty or thirty people and set off.

After the guy from Jishengtang left, he discussed with Doctor Lu, and then hurriedly chased down, there were not many roads up the mountain from the town, and the guy inquired all the way, although the black hunter left earlier, but the pharmacy guy still followed all the way.

Whenever there is a turn or a fork in the road, this guy will make a mark, which is agreed with Dr. Lu, after chasing for half an hour, the pharmacy guy caught up with Dr. Lu, but he didn't dare to get too close, so he followed from a distance, he heard that ordinary hunters have special skills in tracking and searching, and most of them also have some martial arts, if they follow too closely, they may be exposed.

But he still underestimated the ability of the black hunter, after he turned a corner, he suddenly found that the black hunter came out of front of him like a ghost, startled, his face turned pale, he wanted to hide but there was nowhere to hide, so he had to pretend to be calm, patted his chest, and smiled at the black hunter: "Oh, I finally caught up with you." ”

"What are you chasing me for?" The black hunter asked suspiciously.

"Ah, this, it's like this......" The guy hesitated for a moment, and immediately had a flash of inspiration, and said to the black hunter: "After you took the medicine just now, Doctor Lu said that the injured person was very likely to hurt the bones after stepping on the beast trap, and our doctor's parents can't ignore it if they know it, so he asked me to come with you, and by the way, take a look to determine if it really hurt the bones, and besides, there is a lot of rust on your beast clip, it's summer, if this rust enters the flesh, and it can't be cleaned, even if it doesn't hurt the bones, Wounds can also fester, and we have dealt with a person who got tetanus due to a nail in his foot, and finally could not be treated, and his whole body ulcerated and died, so we must treat it with care. ”

"Oh, that's the case, thank you little brother, you guys are really kind-hearted." Wu Orion said with relief.

"No thanks, no thanks, hehe!" The drugstore buddy laughed dryly.

*******************************************

Wang Xiancheng under the leadership of Dr. Lu, all the way along the pharmacy guys left the mark to chase over, out of the town, up the mountain, left and right, walked for about an hour, until tired and out of breath, finally turned a hill, the eyes suddenly opened, from the hill to the opposite side, there is a relatively flat land, planted with rice, behind is a row of houses, about four or five, made of wooden planks and bamboo, although simple, but clean and concise.

Between the rice field and the house, there is a piece of about 20 zhang horizontal, about seven or eight zhang longitudinal field, which is rammed flat and smooth, glowing with white light, which should be used to dry the grain, Zhejiang people call it threshing floor.

The house is located on the shoulder of the mountain, and the view is excellent, except when the sun rises, which will block a little sunlight from the mountain, and at other times, it can be illuminated by the sun from morning to night.

About the hunters in the mountains do not like to live in groups, and there is only this one family in the extreme sight, which seems to be lonely, but there is a leisurely feeling of picking chrysanthemums in the east fence.

Wang Xiancheng and their position is in front of the right side of the house, which can not only see the whole of the house, but also not be seen by the other side, presumably this is the home of the black hunter, the county Cheng beckoned, let everyone bow down, hide between the leaves, and observe the hut quietly.

The house was quiet, there was no movement, no one went in and out, the sun shone on the top of the fan, reflecting the white light, the county Cheng turned around and asked Dr. Lu: "Where is your pharmacy guy now?" ”

"Ah......, the signal is gone in front, it should be around here, maybe he touched the house and looked closer." Dr. Lu's sweat was dripping down his temples, and he didn't know if he was tired or nervous.

About a pillar of incense passed, I saw that the door of the house suddenly opened, and the man from the pharmacy walked out of it, followed by the black hunter, standing far away, and couldn't hear what they were saying, only to see the black hunter arching his hand politely to the man, as if to say a word of thanks, the man returned the salute, and then walked out along the path.

Wang Xiancheng glared at Doctor Lu and scolded in a low voice: "How can he act so rashly, if the widow is inside, won't he be startled by the snake if he goes over like this?" If you run away again this time, I will not spare you. ”

Dr. Lu grinned, feeling disgusted at this guy, but he didn't know how to tell the difference, so he had to keep wiping his sweat.

The guy approached, and suddenly saw so many people lying behind the woods, he was startled at first, and when he saw that it was an officer and soldier, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly ran over, and saw the county Cheng, the last time the county Cheng was in the town to search for him, the guy had seen him from afar, so he knew that this was the county official, he respectfully saluted the county Cheng, and then stepped forward.

"Bastard, how can you be so careless that you actually walked into the room, and you are not afraid of startling the snake." The county magistrate said, "Say, the Japanese can be inside, what is the situation now?" ”

"Huh!? ......" The guy thought that the county would praise him after meeting, but he didn't expect to be greeted by a reprimand, and he couldn't help but be startled, and hurriedly lowered his voice and reported to the county Cheng: "Master Rongyu, when I was following the Wu Orion, I was accidentally discovered by him, you don't know, these Orions can be careful, all of them are like foxes, so I pretended to be entrusted by Dr. Lu to treat the injured person, and scared him that if he didn't deal with it properly, he might not even be able to save his life, so Wu Orion invited me to his home, Let me help him see if the injured person needs further treatment. ”

"Is the widow in the house? How many people are there? How's it going? The county asked.

"My lord, we're making a fortune here, hehe, those two widows are in the house, it's true, I saw it with my own eyes, one of them was caught in the leg by the beast, and I hit the splint, and it is inconvenient to walk, let's hurry up and attack it, they must be unable to escape." The drugstore guy seemed to see large chunks of silver flying around in front of his eyes.
