It is said that Su Shi and Qin Ming and other cadres went straight down by boat from Jingzhao Mansion through Fengxiang Mansion, passing through Lizhou and Bazhou, and finally arrived in Zizhou by carriage. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Along the way, Baling's victory, as well as the Sichuan style, are in full view.

Su Shi is a native of Meizhou, and since he won the championship, he has not returned to his hometown except for crossing the horse and walking in the street. This time I came to Zizhou, and I was already close to Chengdu Mansion. Chengdu Fu Road has more than 100 miles of road, and then returned to Meizhou. Passing through the door without entering, it can almost be said that it is a night walk.

Qin Ming and other Royal Military Academy cadets were surprised to see that Su Shi was familiar with the style of Zizhou, and he also used dialects to talk to the people around him. Drinking the same river water, it has been a place of Confucian scholars since ancient times. There is a cloud in the "Book of Songs", "Weisang and Zi must stop respectfully." The father of the bandits, the mother of the bandits', its filial piety has also been so far. Zizhan is a native of Meizhou, Chengdu Prefecture, and he understands the customs of this place. ”

Qin Ming smiled bitterly and said, "Su Dacai, you can spare us." We are a group of big bosses, where can we understand these scriptures and books! ”

Su Shi also said with some amusement: "Aren't you all literate?" Liu Zongyuan, a great poet of the former dynasty, also wrote, 'What do the country birds also come here, and now I remember Sangzi in my heart'! ”

Qin Ming lowered his voice and said, "It's all thanks to Your Majesty's blessing, and I can barely learn a few hundred words." If it had known me before, it wouldn't have recognized me! ”

Su Shi laughed, but there was sadness hidden in the laughter. Passing by Zizhou, he thought of Liu Zongyuan's poem "Smelling the Yellow Bird", and he thought of his deceased biological mother Cheng, and his emotions were revealed for a while. Qin Ming and the others saw Su Shi, who had talked a lot along the way, and after entering Zizhou, they became silent. Except for routine questioning, they are all in a hurry. made Qin Ming and them uncomfortable, and said that Su Shi was in a bad mood.

On this day, when I arrived in the city of Zizhou, it was almost dusk. The group found an inn and settled down. In fact, Su Shi is handling the case for the first time, and he has no clue how to start. This night, Su Shi tossed and turned, got up helplessly, pushed open the window, and was about to admire the moon, but unexpectedly the sky was dark and full of stars, let alone the moon.

After a while, it did rain. The raindrops hit the tiles, and in the quiet world, it seemed to play a unique charm.

Looking at the water of the Fujiang River not far away, Su Shi was inspired and said casually: "The black clouds turn over the ink and do not cover the mountains, and the white rain jumps beads and messes with the boats." The wind blows and blows away, and the river is like the moon and the water is like the sky. ”

What does it mean to look at the river like the moon? It is precisely because of the room where Su Shi lives at this time that when he looks at it, the water of the Fujiang River is like a bright moon. The last sentence, Wangjiang is like the moon and water is like the sky, if it is according to the official history, Su Shi will be nine years later at this time, in Hangzhou Wanghulou, the original sentence should be "Wanghu Tower's water is like the sky", but the artistic conception of the original sentence is not as good as this "Wangjiang is like the moon and water is like the sky" at this time. After all, West Lake is just a lake without living water, while Fujiang River is the source of life for the people of Zizhou. Perhaps the grace of the West Lake and the descriptions of the literati of the past dynasties have given it the artistic conception of "broken bridges and remnants of snow". But Su Shi's style of writing has always been wide open, and it is better to describe the West Lake than to describe the mighty Fujiang River!

As soon as these words fell, I heard someone outside the door shouting softly: "Good poetry, good poetry!" ”

As soon as Su Shi heard this voice, he knew that it was Qin Ming. He closed the window, and then slowly opened the door, and when he looked, sure enough, it was Qin Ming outside the door. Su Shi was very surprised: "Qin Dalang, why don't you sleep yet?" ”

Qin Ming made a silent posture, then flashed into Su Shi's room, and after gently closing the door, he said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Su Dacai, I just got some news from Xiao Er, and I don't know if it's useful, so I'll come to see it with you." ”

Su Song was stunned for a moment, he didn't know that the investigation could still be done like this, so he lowered his voice and said, "Please speak, Zizhan listens." ”

Qin Ming smiled and said, "This was originally the routine of those people in the Supervision Department, I just borrowed it. Just now I spent 100 cents, and I learned from the innkeeper that not long ago, there were two fierce men with four or five children, all boys, who came to stay here. It stands to reason that if the couple travels with children, it is nothing. But with the child, it was two big men, and they kicked him because Xiao Er was lazy. So, Xiao Er took it to heart. They came in horse-drawn carriages, and the children, as if they were all asleep, were carried into the guest rooms by two big men in turn. That little second held a grudge in his heart, and peeked at how they treated those children, hehe, Su Dacaizi, you would never have thought how bad people's hearts are! ”

When Su Shi heard him say this, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and his tone changed: "That big man, how did you treat these children?" ”

Qin Ming said hatefully: "These two big men, both of whom are skilled in martial arts, are afraid that those children will get away, so they actually used the technique of splitting the muscles and bones to remove their knee joints!" ”

When Su Shi heard this, he said angrily: "There are such wicked people? ”

Qin Ming said hatefully: "The hateful thing is still to come, listening to Xiao Er's description, they put the sweat medicine in the meal and let these children eat." This keeps them from feeling pain and keeps them from making noise. Most of the children, most of whom had died down after the third watch, began to eat the cold food when they were so hungry that they passed out before they could finish it......"

Su Shi had never heard such a cruel and inhumane thing, and said in a trembling voice: "Didn't the little second report to the official?" ”

Qin Ming smiled bitterly: "According to Xiao Er, there are many such cases in this Zizhou. Besides, if there is no evidence, even if you report to the official, one is not a relative, and the other is not concerned about itself, and the government will ignore it. If the thief hears the sound and escapes, and then comes back to seek revenge, who will keep him safe? ”

Su Shi clenched his fists for a long time before continuing to ask, "How long ago was this?" ”

Qin Ming said: "It has been more than half a year ago, about September before the year. ”

"Is there anything like this happening today?"

Qin Ming said: "Xiao Er said that since the beating of His Majesty's pro-government, this group of people seems to have disappeared. In the past, many children were abducted in Zizhou, but now, it rarely happens. By the way, the time they disappeared was almost the same as the time His Majesty reused the Supervision Department. ”

Su Shi smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty has the foresight to create the Supervision Department first. It's just that in this way, it will be more difficult for us to solve the case. The thieves are all hidden, don't say that we are waiting, even the Supervision Department, and it is easy to find out why......"

Qin Ming also complained: "Your Majesty is too, this is impossible to do, and it is not embarrassing for you to do it?" You're right, Master Su? ”

Su Shi just wanted to speak, but Qin Ming shouted in a low voice: "Silence! ”

Su Shi was stunned for a moment, but saw Qin Ming lightly touch the edge of the door, holding the dagger in his arms with one hand, and looked like he was listening to something. (To be continued.) )
