Volume 1 Border City Chapter 18
Just when Han Xiao was planning in the room, once he was exposed, he chose to get out of there, but the fat man in the opposite room told a story of ups and downs.
Melansk tells the story of how a family with no human rights required a 16-year-old adult man to go out alone to earn a piece of business. How did he set out from the Shang Alliance with great hardships and went through many difficulties and dangers to come to the Blood Dome Imperial Capital. And then how did he shrewdly discover various business opportunities and earn a lot of money. This time, he made a desperate gamble and threw all his belongings into a batch of goods that were shipped back to the merchant alliance, and then 。。。。。 Then he was robbed on the road, and the documents that connected to the customs were also destroyed.
After hearing this, the leading soldier said directly: "That means that you don't have anything to prove your identity." ”
Melansk trembled and took out another golden ticket from his arms: "Isn't this okay?"
"It's useless. Then the leader took the golden ticket and stuffed it into his pocket.
Seeing this, Melansk's teeth ached.
"In addition, you explain, you have been robbed, what is the matter with this golden ticket, don't tell me that the robbers saw that you were pitiful and left it for you. ”
"That's the investment I made on my way here, passing through several provinces, and getting some local officials and wealthy businessmen. ”
The leading soldier was stunned for a moment, obviously not understanding.
"That is, I give them my business plan, let them give me money, I will run it, and return it to them with interest in the future. ”
"Just your mouth?"
"No, there is Andorra. ”
The leading soldier never thought that the money was so easy to make, so he just gave a few words and a surname that could not be proved to be true, and someone actually gave this fat man so much money. I didn't think there was anything wrong with taking so much money, anyway, the money was cheated. Then he asked, "Are you planning to go back, if you go to Shangmeng, don't you think it's a bit far from Hongfeng Fortress?"
Melansk looked nervously at the person in front of him and replied, "I didn't want to go back. No, no, I'm not going back to Shangmeng. I don't dare to go back, I plan to go to my aunt's house in the Great Sun Holy Kingdom to avoid it for a while, and then go back when I earn enough wealth. Speaking of the little fat man's sad face, if these things were reported to his father, it would probably be another beating. Andorra is a disgrace and a disgrace abroad. He didn't know that what happened in the Blood Dome was already known to his father, but his father wasn't prepared to beat him up as he thought. On the contrary, his father saw his unparalleled talent for business, but if this cowardice was not corrected, he would never be able to support the entire Andorran family, or even the entire Muhe branch.
"Little fat man, you'd better be honest, are you with the guy just now?" said the leader as he put his knife on Melansk's fat face, rubbing it gently.
Melansk felt the coldness on his face, and his whole body was on the verge of collapse.
The person on the other side continued: "It's okay if you don't say it, when I help you lose weight, you will naturally say it." The leader sneered as he gestured his knife at Melansk's fat. At this moment, Melansk's whole body felt a great crisis, and was shaking desperately.
"I didn't know the person just now, just now I thought it was for me to hand in the supporting materials, so I answered. Later, I realized that I had made a mistake, and then I slipped the golden ticket to the person in front of me. I don't really know him. ”
"Do you think I'm an idiot? Besides, you two were talking for a while in the back, what did you say?"
"I didn't say anything, but I came last, and asked what was being investigated, and then the man told me that he was investigating spies, and that there were forty cruel punishments in the Blood Dome. The more intense the situation Melansk was, the quicker he reacted, and he immediately explained everything.
When the leader heard the statement of catching the spies, he obviously didn't understand why Han Xiao said that. These people are actually clear, this time they are dealing with the cancer inside the fortress, and by the way, they will check the suspicious people, and there is no direct connection with the transfer of spies. But seeing that this fat man was about to go crazy, he didn't panic when he thought about it. At the moment, this person didn't ask anything, and after instructing his subordinates to take care of the two of them, he went out to discuss with the other leaders.
"What's going on over there, did you catch a big fish?"
"I don't know, these two people, one is cowardly, a little abnormal during the inspection, and now that the trial is done separately, it doesn't seem to be a big problem, I'm worried about how to get it?" said the leader just now, lighting a cigarette.
"If you want me to forget it, anyway, we are just going through the motions this time, and the people who really want to do it are all counted. You might as well think about where to eat something good at noon, but unfortunately the wine is definitely not drinkable. Another slightly skinny leader said.
"Yes, yes, although we are not the main force, we have gained a lot of benefits this morning. This kind of hard work, I hope to do more in the future, and we will also contribute more to the country with our salary, don't you say?"
"No, the brothers and brothers are watching these two people, I'll come when I go. "The person in charge of Han Xiao still feels that it is inappropriate.
"Okay, it's still early anyway, you go, there are a few brothers and so many subordinates here, there won't be chaos. ”
Then the man got on his horse and went straight to the office where the customs were registered.
At this moment, Li Yu'er dressed neatly, finished eating the food brought by Li Yun, and got up and went to the meeting hall of the town governor's mansion. When he came to the hall, Zhang Zhendu was sitting on the main seat, looking at the documents handed by some of his subordinates. It's just that at this time, Zhang Zhendu seems to have recovered the image of the old man in the past, and the wide robe completely covers the breathtaking edge of last night.
"You came, let Miss Li suffer a big disaster in my house, because the old man didn't do a good job. If I have the chance, I will ask the old lady of the Li family to plead guilty in person. Zhang Zhendu put down the documents in his hand at this time and smiled at Li Yuer like an ordinary elder.
"Lord Governor is serious, thanks to Lord Governor last night, otherwise with that warlock alone, I'm afraid all of us would die on the spot, and we wouldn't even have a chance to call for help. Li Yuer bowed slightly, but because of the injury to her right shoulder, she couldn't salute directly.
Seeing this, Zhang Xuanzong directly asked her to sit down quickly, without formality: "If you have an injury, you need to rest more, so you don't have to care about these etiquette." By the way, you didn't lose anything, did you?"
"Nope. ”
"That's good, I've already heard from my subordinates, and now I want to ask you about one thing. Do you know who the person who saved you last night was?"
Li Yuer recalled yesterday's situation, and she didn't know how she was rescued, but from Li Yun's dictation, she knew that the place where she was rescued was under the eaves where she was hiding at the time, so the only person who could save herself was the person with the ghost servant mask. Li Yuer did not hide it: "It's a person with a ghost mask, I don't know who it is, I only know that this person claims to know me, male, very young, and not shallow in martial arts." ”
After Zhang Xuanzong listened, he was thoughtful, but he didn't have a clue for a while, so he opened his mouth and said to Li Yu'er: "Since you don't know, then forget it, this person will naturally appear when he wants to appear, as long as he is not an enemy." Go back and rest, take good care of that thing, the old man believes you can. ”
Just as Li Yu'er wanted to get up, Qiu Zhen walked in from outside, and when he saw Li Yu'er behind, he didn't shy away from anything, and said directly to Zhang Xuanzong: "My lord, just now my subordinates came to report that a person named Han Xiao and Andor Melansk was found out and questioned, and I have already notified them to be released." ”
"Haha, the housekeeper of the Andorran family just left with the front foot, and the news of the young master of the back foot came here, it seems that he found that something was wrong and came to you and me. Zhang Xuanzong and the others didn't think it was a big deal anyway, and since Li Yuer was there, he explained it to her.
"By the way, my lord, that Han Xiao seems to have a bit of a problem. Although the people below reported that the two were together, Han Xiao claimed that he didn't know the young master of the Andorran family, and he also reported a relative who had left the customs, named Zhang Chong, but his subordinates checked that there was no such person among the recent customs clearance personnel, and they were sure that there was a problem to report to me. Do you think this Han Xiao wants to be arrested first?" Qiu Zhen looked at the town governor sitting on the master's seat, and suddenly felt that his matter seemed to be full of loopholes, Han Xiao had such an obvious problem, he just heard that he was with Andorra at the time, so he didn't care about anything, and ordered the release together, and now that he thinks about it, he is seriously derelict in his duties.
After listening to Qiu Zhen's words, Zhang Zhendu, who was sitting on the main seat, said directly: "No need, just release people, there is no problem." ”
When Li Yuer and Qiu Zhen heard this, they both had a plan in their hearts, this Han Xiao was either really an inconsequential little person, or he had a certain relationship with Zhang Zhendu. Otherwise, in this case, someone will still be investigated, and this will never be the case.
The town governor's mansion hastily determined the nature of the matter, and the original leader, after learning that Zhang Zhong was not out of the customs, hurriedly found his boss to report the situation, and then rode back to the hotel by himself. When he arrived at the hotel, several dead friends were playing dice in the hall outside, and when they saw him come back, one of them said loudly: "I said that you are not tired, can you release people, my brothers are hungry, I have seen the food in this house, and I can't do much." ”
"They had a problem, and the customs clearance office didn't find the name of the person. Without saying a word, he took out his long knife and walked to the room where Han Xiao was staying. The other people were stunned for a moment, and then their faces changed and they quickly followed. It's just that when a group of people rush into the room, they find it empty.
"Oh no, this man ran away. Then they rushed to Melansk's room, where the fat man was shivering in a corner. When he heard the crowd rushing into the opposite room, he understood that his fat body was estimated to really taste the forty tortures of the blood dome, but he didn't know if it was really cool after tasting it, anyway, it hurt for sure.
"Block off the surrounding streets and find the people!" one of the leaders immediately ordered, and then several people prepared to rush out of the hotel and lead people to search. At this time, Han Xiao was actually not far away from them, and they could even hear the roars of several people clearly, but none of these people thought that Han Xiao would hide on the roof of the fat man's room, and even the fat man didn't know.
Just as a few people rushed out of the hotel, a middle-level general also arrived at the scene and said directly to the team leader in charge of Han Xiao: "Release people, they have no problem." ”
"My lord, but there is something wrong with the man's confession, and the man has absconded in fear of sin. ”
"What are you talking about? This shouldn't be, Lord Qiu personally explained that these two people are fine, is it really a mistake?" When people were puzzled, Han Xiao walked over from behind, looked at so many people and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, are we no longer in trouble?"
Several people immediately turned around, and the officer who had interrogated Han Xiao shouted, "Didn't you run away just now?"
Han Xiao was stunned: "No, I couldn't hold it anymore and went to the toilet." ”
"No way, why didn't we see you come out. ”
"Maybe the adults were too excited to pay attention to me. ”
When a few people heard this, they immediately couldn't answer, gambling during duty has to play the board, not to mention that it is really possible that a few of them are careless.
"Okay, since there's no problem, let's let them go. The middle-level general said.
The person who interrogated Han Xiao wanted to say something, but was stopped by the visitor: "Everyone collect the team and go back to the camp." ”
The soldiers quickly disappeared into the streets. At this time, Melansk also came out of the house leaning against the wall, his legs were still weak, but he also knew that he was fine.
