"Ge Pu is the insider of the Chai family's extermination case, right?"

As soon as Wan Lin's question was raised, the man's eyes that had been dodging suddenly met Wan Lin's.

In this brief look at each other, Wan Lin sensed the horror and surprise in the man's eyes.

Wan Lin took the opportunity to say: "I have already sent someone to follow Xiong Ersheng and them, and my people have seen them report to Ge Puyu, the county magistrate of Quanling County, about stopping us from digging a well. We don't have to be stubborn, we can know what we want to know even if we don't ask anything from your mouth. It's just that you've been caught by us, do you think Ge Pu will still believe you? ”

After Wan Lin finished speaking, the man's expression immediately changed significantly.

He gritted his teeth fiercely, as if he wanted to say something.

And Wan Lin suddenly became kind to him at this time, "Since you are unwilling to confess, Ge Pu no longer trusts you, and it is useless for us to keep you." ”

After saying to him, Wan Lin said to the officers and soldiers on both sides of him: "Drag him down and dispose of him, and then find a place where no one is there to bury him." ”

"Yes!"

The sound of the two officers and soldiers answering was like a bell, and Qi Hongkuo was shocked when he heard it.

"Wait!"

The man glared and shouted violently.

Wan Lin waved his hand and motioned for the two officers and soldiers to stop, and then asked the man with a gentle attitude: "You don't have to worry, they will leave you a whole corpse." ”

"No, I'm not worried! I am...... I'm recruiting! I've recruited them all, so I beg the adults to keep a small life! ”

The man actually cried at the end, and Wan Lin almost didn't hold back.

Wan Lin couldn't help but smile and asked, "Since you voluntarily confessed, then what reason do I have not to let you speak?" You say, let's listen. ”

Qi Hongkuo secretly cast an admiring look at Wan Lin.

"The little one's name is Zhuang Liu, and he is from Quanling County. Xiao and Xiong Ersheng both have some kung fu, and they take care of order in the vegetable market on weekdays. Pretending to be a villager in Jinping Village to make trouble was indeed instructed by Lord Ge to do it. The little ones didn't dare to ask more, what Master Ge asked the little ones to do, and the little ones could only do as they were told. ”

Speaking of this, Zhuang Liu was very aggrieved and pursed his mouth, as if they were really forced to be helpless.

After listening to his confession, Wan Lin immediately knew in his heart.

This Zhuang Liu, Xiong Ersheng and others are at best looking at the order of the vegetable market, but in fact, they are the thugs who collect protection money from the vegetable vendors.

Wan Lin didn't reveal his identity, and asked again: "Zhuang Liu, do you really know nothing about those gold objects?" ”

Zhuang Liu hurriedly shook his head like a rattle, "The little one really doesn't know anything!" I knew that the gold tools there were so easy to dig, and the small ones had already dug up a few gold tools and ran away! How can a man be stupid and suffer there? ”

However, Wan Lin did not believe his words.

Qi Hongkuo listened for a long time on the sidelines, and then asked: "Zhuang Liu, don't forget, Lord Wan and I are the disaster relief messengers sent by His Majesty, and we not only have the right to cut first and then play, but also have all kinds of privileges to investigate cases. We still have some patience sitting here here interrogating you, but once our patience runs out, let alone you, Ge Pu's head can move at any time! ”

Qi Hongkuo's words also had a good deterrent effect, and Zhuang Liu couldn't help but shrink his neck when he heard it.

Wan Lin also secretly handed Qi Hongkuo an admiring look.

Wan Lin said cooperatively: "Zhuang Liu, if you are an acquaintance, you must confess the truth, otherwise your flesh and skin will suffer before you die." ”

"Yes, yes, the little one understands! Small...... All recruited! ”

Zhuang Liu didn't dare to play any tricks this time, and confessed everything he knew.

Zhuang Liu, Xiong Ersheng and others are, to put it bluntly, Ge Pu's dog legs, and they don't help him do anything to oppress the people on weekdays.

When he learned that the disaster relief messenger was leading people to dig a well in Jinping Village, Ge Pu hurriedly sent Xiong Ersheng and them over, asking them to pretend to be villagers in Jinping Village and use feng shui as an excuse to prevent the digging of the well.

Ge Pu also inquired, and knew that Wan Lin and Qi Hongkuo, the two Qincha, really did things for the people, and knew that they would not embarrass the people.

Ge Pu told Xiong Ersheng that they must stop digging wells and ditches in Jinping Village, Xiong Ersheng asked curiously why Ge Pu did this?

Ge Pu only told them that there were things he had hidden in Jinping Village, and when Qin Cha left, he would dig up those things and give them to Xiong Ersheng and them.

But everyone thought that the Qin Cha did not rely on manpower to dig the well but on machines, and when they arrived, they saw that the well in Jinping Village was about to be drilled.

This frightened Xiong Ersheng and them, but fortunately, they didn't find anything.

Xiong Ersheng sent someone back to report the matter of Ge Pu, and Ge Pu was immediately frightened and changed his face, and told them to send away the Qin Cha and then guard the well.

Zhuang Liu knew that there might be a treasure buried in the ground next to this well, but he didn't expect this treasure to be buried so shallowly, and it didn't take much effort to dig out a bunch of gold tools!

"Two adults, if the little one knows which gold objects are so easy to dig, the little one will really dig a few pieces and run away, why should you be caught? That's all the little one knows, even if you peel off the little one, the little one can't explain anything else. ”

Zhuang Liu had a bitter face, and Wan Lin always stared at his eyes, seeing that he really didn't hide it this time.

Wan Lin asked people to escort him down first, and it was close to dawn at this time.

Now that they already know Ge Pu's secret, Wan Lin and Qi Hongkuo have a number in their hearts.

The two of them took a nap for a while to recuperate, and planned to go to Quanling County early in the morning to ask Ge Pu for questioning.

Fu Xiaojiu and Wan Zhang both knew what Zhuang Liu confessed, and Fu Xiaojiu instructed Wan Lin: "Then Ge Pu may be in order to regard money as more important than life." The emperor is far away here, if he is in a hurry, he may not care about the identity of your Qincha, you must be careful when you meet him! ”

Fu Xiaojiu's meaning Wan Lin and Qi Hongkuo both understood, Wan Lin said cautiously: "We will grasp the proportions, lady, you and Brother Zhang's family can wait for us to come back with peace of mind." ”

This time, Wan Lin only left a few officials to guard the county office, and took away more than 100 officers and soldiers.

When they were going to Quanling County, they would pass through Jinping Village, just in time for the officers and soldiers who were guarding the Tibetan Jindi yesterday to change their guards and rest.

Unexpectedly, when they got closer, Wan Lin and the others saw a scene that made them angry and sad.

Last night, all the officers and soldiers guarding here were killed, most of them had several poison darts on their bodies, and some of them were slashed several times, and their deaths were extremely miserable.

Qi Hongkuo scolded bitterly: "How can this be reasonable! Is this what Ge Pu did? Is this brute going to rebel? I'm going to have to skin him!" ”

More than a dozen officers and soldiers had died in the battle with the water thieves, and Wan Lin thought that they would never suffer any more casualties, but he did not expect to lose so many men in such a small village.

Wan Lin was also very sad when he looked at the corpses of these officers and soldiers, but he knew that he had to calm down as soon as possible and come up with a countermeasure to deal with Ge Pu.

If it was really Ge Pu who sent people to kill these officers and soldiers, then Ge Pu was clearly killing chickens and making an example.

He dared to kill the officers and soldiers of Qincha's entourage with a small county order, and he must not have taken Qincha in his eyes.

Ge Pu's boldness and ruthlessness are somewhat beyond Wan Lin's imagination.

Wan Lin endured his grief and said, "Lord Qi, we will definitely not be frightened by Ge Pu's methods, but we must not be carried away by anger. It's not good for us to provoke him to jump off the wall. And let's remember that we should put disaster relief first and think more about the people of the whole state! ”

Wan Lin's consolation made Qi Hongkuo calm down instantly, and he nodded heavily, "Yes!" For the sake of those people who have been affected by the disaster, we must not fight with him. But if Ge Pu really dares to attack us, can we withstand it? ”

Wan Lin stabilized his mind and said: "Don't worry, Lord Qi, our people may suffer when they are on the water or when they are defenseless, but as long as they are prepared, they will definitely not suffer again!" ”

After Wan Lin said this, he asked the officers and soldiers in a loud voice: "Have you all seen it?" It is likely that your comrades-in-arms were killed by the Ge Pu faction! You must be prepared, if Ge Pu dares to attack us again, do you have the determination to annihilate him and his people in one fell swoop? ”

The rest of the officers and soldiers were full of hatred in their hearts, and after listening to Wan Lin's words, they all gritted their teeth and shouted: "We are determined!" We will avenge our dead comrades! ”

Wan Lin left a few people to collect the bodies of the officers and soldiers who were killed, and then led them straight to the county government of Quanling County.

The distance between Quanling County and Dongzhou County is not too far, but the disaster situation here is much more serious than that of Dongzhou County and Linyang County.

Not only were the fields cracked with drought, but the people were also skinny and ragged.

Many people fled to other places with their burdens on their backs, and there were many corpses of people who died of starvation and disease along the way without anyone to buried, and Wan Lin and others couldn't bear to see such a tragic scene.

Qi Hongkuo slapped his thigh angrily, "This Quanling County is about to become a purgatory on earth!" It is not far from Dongzhou County and Linyang County, why is there such a big gap? It can be seen that Ge Pu is really a black-hearted beast, and he doesn't care about the life or death of the people at all! ”

Wan Lin couldn't help but be angry, clenched his fists and said: "It can be seen that in the years that Ge Pu has been in office, what kind of life have the people of Quanling County lived? I now have to suspect that Ge Pu may not only have heard of the tragic destruction of the Chai family, but is also very likely to have participated in it! ”

Qi Hongkuo asked in surprise: "Lord Wan, do you mean that Ge Pu is in the same group as that gang of bandits?" ”

Wan Lin nodded, "It's very likely." Although the gang of bandits were all beheaded, do you remember that the Wanxian Commander said that the mountain of the bandits was in Quanling County, and the Dongzhou County Commander at that time quickly cracked the case. It's not easy to exterminate such rampant bandits quickly, maybe someone betrayed them, that's why they were exterminated so quickly! ”
