"If I break in by force, will the Daye Temple still be able to stop me?" Zhao Li asked aloud.

Mr. Yu squeezed out a smile on his face and said: "Brother Zhao, this Daye Temple is also an ancient temple for hundreds of years, and it is inextricably linked with Jinguang Temple.

Zhao Li asked again: "How can I get the hero post?"

"This post is only sent to all sects in the rivers and lakes, if it is a scattered person, only the old first-class people with both ability and political integrity can get it, even if Brother Zhao, your skills are excellent, but after all, you are not famous in the rivers and lakes, and besides, it is only a few days before the convening of the martial arts conference, I am afraid it will be too late..." Mr. Yu's dart head continued to pour cold water.

"Understood. Zhao Li nodded, it would be good if he knew about the martial arts conference earlier, Zhangjiabao must have a hero post, if he asked for it directly, he was not afraid that Zhangjiabao would not give it, but now it is too late to say this, it seems that it is not easy for him to legally enter Daye Temple to participate in the martial arts conference.

But then again, even if he can get the hero post and enter the Daye Temple legally, what he has to do is still not legal, I'm afraid it will still make some waves, so in this way, the hero post is of no use to him, at most it is to save some effort when entering the door...

"Brother Yu, then in this Xishan City, which pharmacies have the largest scale and the most good medicines, and which people have the most wealth and the most good medicines and ginseng, do you know these?" Zhao Li asked Yu Xinhou again.

······

Xishan City, the prefect's yamen.

These few days are the most terrifying and difficult days for the prefect of Xishan County, who has been an official for decades and has seen any strong winds and waves.

From the first day, when his cook was mysteriously killed in the mansion, the city seemed to be transformed into a chaotic maelstrom.

The next day, he was worried about being targeted by the assassins, so he invited the new chief soldier Ma Ding to a banquet in Zuixian Building, hoping that the other party would send heavy troops to protect him, but Ma Zongbing was hacked to death in front of him, but he didn't have anything to do.

That night, the officers and soldiers under Ma Zongbing and his subordinates joined forces to chase the murderer all night, making a storm all over the city, and as a result, more than 100 officers and soldiers died, and even two centurions died.

And then on the third day, for several days in a row, although there were no murders, there were thefts of great impact and extreme vile - no, not theft strictly speaking, it should be called robbery.

On the first day, only a few large pharmacies were so bad that they looted, and the criminals were quite knowledgeable, and almost all the most precious and oldest medicinal materials in the shops were washed, and the next morning, the proprietors of the pharmacies lined up at the entrance of the prefect's yamen were all crying and swollen eyes.

Later, not only the pharmacy in the city, but also many rich and noble families in the city were also looted, and the looted were also all kinds of rare medicinal materials and medicines.

Pharmacy aside, at least the big dog families who can gain a foothold in Xishan City have families and nurses at home, but no one can stop the progress of the looters, strictly speaking, they can't even delay for a while.

According to the confessions of these people, the criminal is a burly man with a height of nearly 2 meters, with a bald head, and extremely long hands, and great strength - obviously, this is the same person who assassinated the chief soldier in public, and everyone who tried to resist this giant man was glad that he did not end up with the same fate as the chief soldier...

"Your Excellency, you have to make decisions for us, wow, that dog thief has robbed me of the four 300-year-old ginseng plants that I treasure in my family!" a rich man dressed as an outsider took the lead in crying in the court.

"Yes, Lord Qingtian is above, my family's 'Rejuvenation Hall' has been open for seven generations, and it is the first time I have encountered such a thief, the hundred-year-old Snow Lotus in the store, the hundred-year-old He Shou Wu, by the way, and a five-hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum was also snatched away..."

"My family too..."

Other wealthy families and pharmacy owners who were robbed also complained of bitterness.

"Rest assured, this official is sending someone to arrest the murderer, and this thief must be brought to justice!" The prefect's face was full of justice and anger, and he swore to the full house of outsiders.

Finally persuaded these people, the prefect sat down in his position, sighed, and then thought of something, and quickly summoned his master.

"How's the matter with the arrest of the murderer?" asked the prefect as he turned to his master.

The master frowned slightly, and then said cautiously: "My lord, didn't you order that no one should go after the murderer..."

The prefect frowned and shouted: "Foolish! That murderer first assassinated the chief soldier and then committed one robbery after another in the city, how can he let it go? As the parents of the people, if we take no action, won't it make the people feel cold!"

The master was stunned by this general instruction, he still remembered that a few days ago, the prefect was so frightened that he didn't dare to go out of the gate, and he didn't dare to step out of the second gate, and ordered all the catchers not to go to the street to patrol, for fear of annoying the thief...

"From today onwards, send people to intensify patrols on the streets, and be sure to catch that thief as soon as possible!" The prefect shouted, looking at his master who looked at him at a loss, and said to him in a low voice: "Many of the robbed people in the city have children who are officials in the court, if there is no appearance, we can't sit still, so let the people below behave like it, don't really annoy the murderer! Also, you quietly give the order to go down..."

The master suddenly realized, nodded again and again, and took the order.

······

On this day, in the streets and alleys of Xishan City, the number of patrolling catchers suddenly increased, and wanted notices were posted everywhere, and the image of the young bald head on the notice portrait was very similar to Zhao Li himself.

But it's different from the usual murderers... In the past, if the target was an image of an eight-foot-tall person with a scar on his face, then a passer-by who was seven feet tall or had a scar on his hand would also be arrested and investigated.

The fast catchers who kept patrolling the streets and alleys said that from now on, they must strictly enforce the law, saying that if they are nine feet tall, then they must be nine feet tall, and if they say that they are bald, then even if there is only one hair on their heads, or if they are just a layer of stubble, they are not murderers - even if they are all right in terms of image, they cannot be arrested casually, and they must go through strict audits, and only after they are repeatedly determined that they are murderers can they be arrested, and they must not disturb the innocent people in the city.
