Chapter 175: People Must Be Saved (2)
"We are indeed Bai Jiajun, I am the Bai Zongcheng Feng of the Baihu Office in Erma Town, this is the Qianzong Bai Qing of the Qianhu Office in Donglin County, a few days ago there should be a little girl named Qi Ke who came to the village to check her big Zhuangzi, has she dealt with you?" Cheng Feng couldn't waste time arguing with the villagers about his identity, and motioned to the scouts around him to help him translate the words into Donglin.
As soon as these words came out, the villagers were in a commotion again, but the name of the hundred households in Erma Town still made them quiet quickly, as locals, they must know which village belongs to them from an early age.
"Erma Town, 100 households? The town is dead. A village woman muttered sadly, "Those who were soldiers ran away by themselves, leaving the people alone, the corpses in one place, the corpses were burned for several days and nights." ”
"It's really the Bai family army that just fought? Oops, it scared the hell out of me. As Qi Ke guessed, sure enough, there was a woman who was reminded of the fear of Haikou entering the village and burning him, which would have to sit on the ground if it wasn't for someone around to support her.
"Qi Ke was taken away by the official today, right? Someone at the north pier of the county saw her, so our Bai Jiajun came to understand the situation, and we wanted to know what happened to her. Seeing that he was going to go off-topic, although the situation revealed by the village woman was also very important, but for now, he could only put it aside, Bai Qing spoke out in time and pulled the topic back.
"Since you are the Bai family's army, then Qi Ke has something to leave for you." Yuan Ting turned around and walked back, "Follow me." ”
"What did she leave behind?" Bai Qing immediately hit his horse and followed Yuan Ting, Cheng Feng followed by his side, and the scouts were scattered around.
"The manuscript she has been investigating in the village these days." The villagers followed behind Yuan Ting, surrounded by scouts and torches, but Sister Zhu and Sister Hong did not follow, and they stayed at home to take care of the children.
"Do you know what the official is looking for her for?"
"The Shen family in the county robbed her Zhuangzi, saying that they wanted to sacrifice Zhuangzi to your Bai family army in the name of their clan, and the two sides fought, and Qi Ke's big dog bit them to death and drove them away." Yuan Ting didn't say the word wolf for the sake of the woman next to him, and it was more scary to have a big bad wolf next to the little lady than to raise a big dog.
"The Shen clan in the county? Is it the hundred-year-old Shen family? Bai Qing and Cheng Feng glanced at each other, and the two frowned.
"That's them." Yuan Ting pointed in the direction of Zhuangzi, "Dozens of people are guarding here, and when you look for it at dawn, you will definitely be able to find a bunch of miscellaneous items." ”
"Qi Ke is alone, with a dog, and beat away dozens of men?!" Bai Qing sounded a little unbelievable, Qi Ke had been with the team for so many days, but no one had ever seen a dog beside her, where did the dog come from?
"We didn't see the scene of the fight, you walked around the village after dawn, it hasn't rained for the past few days, and you should still find a lot of blood."
Bai Qing and Cheng Feng were thinking all the way about where Qi Ke usually hid her big dog, such a fierce and protective dog, what a breed.
Yuan Ting took them to his house, the scouts scattered and guarded outside, Bai Qing and Cheng Feng brought the scouts who translated Donglin's dialect into the courtyard, and a few villagers followed the courtyard and were busy lighting a fire.
After a while, Yuan Ting took out the small burden that Qi Ke had given him in the morning from the house.
Bai Qing took a look at the note with the manuscript of Siliu Village pasted on the baggage skin, opened it on the spot and circulated it in a seal, the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became, especially the drawing of the village layout, Yuan Ting inadvertently glanced at it and said that the drawing was accurate.
"Qi Ke arrived at the dock in the afternoon, it was too late for her to be brought to the yamen again, she would not be interrogated that day, and she would be in court tomorrow, we don't have much time now, I need to know what the Shen family's reputation is among your people, you tell me the truth."
