"According to the Great Ming Law, the person receiving the bounty can take the bounty as long as he produces a base, a corpse, or a piece of evidence that can prove that the criminal is dead! Is that so? Lord Zhixian! Ling Xiao turned Tian's stripped corpse over and said lightly.

The magistrate was a little embarrassed and said: "This, Da Ming Law is indeed so stipulated!" But ......"

"This corpse was handed in by the village woman's son, right?" Ling Xiao said again, only this time he lifted the back of Tian's head, where there was an obvious bruise, hidden under the thick head and difficult to see.

Looking at Ling Xiao ruthlessly and strangely, how could he have thought of an autopsy?

Zhixian looked bitter, and wanted to deny it, but looking at the angry expressions of Shen Lian and the others, his heart trembled, "Uh, yes, it's the village woman's son, and the lower official is about to report it truthfully, and once the bounty is approved, it will be handed over to her!" ”

Ling Xiao put the corpse down anew, "This corpse was sent yesterday, according to the regulations, this kind of thing is paid in advance by the local financial appropriation, and then apply for a reward." You should have given her the silver yesterday, and the whole town didn't even have three thousand taels of silver? Hey! It shouldn't be that the magistrate secretly appropriated it! ”

Ling Xiao's expression that looked like a professor in the current capital couldn't help but make everyone laugh, and the magistrate couldn't laugh anymore. To put it bluntly, the local finance is grasped by him, and he usually secretly deducts points through some projects to benefit the people, or temporarily embezzles investment in real estate or something, and fills the void when the funds return. He was already familiar with this kind of thing, and even if other officials knew about it, they wouldn't care, because everyone else did it. But in the final analysis, this is a violation of the Ming Law, and this money was just misappropriated by the magistrate for other purposes not long ago, and it is really impossible to give the bounty to the village woman! When he was in danger, the master came up with an idea of greedy ink bounty, and the county magistrate did it in a daze. Now that the east window is about it, I really don't know what to do for a while.

Seeing that Zhixian's face was gloomy and he looked more sad than dead, Ling Xiao patted Zhixian on the shoulder with a smile, "Don't be so nervous, there are so many projects that need to be built in the town, and the occasional lack of funds is not a big deal." However, the village woman's reward must always be given, so is three days enough? ”

Zhixian was overjoyed, looking at Ling Xiao's unprecedented cuteness, "Enough!" Enough! It has to be enough! I'll be sure to give her the bounty in three days! The magistrate hurriedly said, for fear that he would regret it.

Hearing this, the village woman bowed to Ling Xiao excitedly, "Lord Xie! Thank you, Lord for your grace! ”

Ling Xiaole said, "Okay, you go back and wait for the letter." Within three days, the magistrate will send someone to give you the money. ”

"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir! The women will go back and thank the adults for their great kindness! The village woman burst into tears of excitement and was sent out of the yamen by the doorman.

Ling Xiao turned his head to look at the magistrate and said, "As a parent official, you have the responsibility to ensure the safety of your people, especially those civilians who have a lot of money, if something happens to this woman's family, it will be the responsibility of the magistrate!" ”

The magistrate was taken aback, and hurriedly bowed his hand, "What the lord said is that the lower officials guarantee that nothing will happen to them!" ”

Ling Xiao nodded with satisfaction, "I don't want to worry about other things, just let the three of them discuss it with you!" After speaking, he handed over the handwritten letter that had already been written to Shen Lian.

The magistrate respectfully led the three of them into the inner office, but Ling Xiaohe and Ruthless remained in the front yard.

"Then the magistrate is greedy for public funds, can you just let him go so simply?" Asked mercilessly.

Ling Xiao shook his head and said helplessly: "Do you think I don't want to arrest all the corrupt officials in the world?" Just look at things, not just look at the surface. Everyone is greedy, and I am greedy! But the key is whether you can keep the bottom line! Along the way, there is not even a single unjust soul on the street, and you can see the wealth of the people. A qiē shows that this county is still very capable. ”

"So you don't arrest him? What if he doesn't change his teachings in the future? Ruthless's brow furrowed.

"Although he crossed the bottom line this time, he only drove the woman away, and finally there is still a rescue, I now give him a chance, it depends on whether he can change it! If you don't change your life, then you won't blame me! Ling Xiao shrugged.

This is the truth, the magistrate has a conscience, if there is a slightly darker person, the woman and her son would have been buried in an unknown grave!

Nodding ruthlessly, he asked again, "Then where did you see that something was wrong with this corpse?" ”

"It's easy! Since the son of the village woman doesn't know martial arts, it's naturally impossible to kill Tian Paoguang, don't you really think that this guy is stupid enough to hit the blade of the sword! Ling Xiao casually kicked Tian Stripping's corpse, and continued: "This fat man has a big bruise on the back of his head, which should have been caused by someone hitting him with a heavy object. This kind of heavy object should be a hidden weapon, otherwise it will be seen by the village woman and son. ”

Ruthlessly stepped forward to take a closer look, "Judging from the traces, it should be a large-volume hidden weapon such as flying locust stone or iron gall!" The person who made the move is a master, and his grasp of strength is very accurate! Neither will Tian Strip Guang's life nor change his actions, so he bumped into the sword of the village woman's son! ”

Ling Xiao nodded approvingly, "That should be the case, but I want to know why the village woman's son has a sword in his hand?" ”

……

The town is located on the edge of the suburbs, and although the people are not as tall as the capital, they will not make a fuss when they see people with swords and knives! At best, he glanced at it curiously, and he had to restore himself to normal before others appeared, so as not to get into trouble for himself.

At this moment, there are a few gray-clothed men with knives in a tea shed on the side of the road who are chatting and farting leisurely, and the owner of the tea shed is in line with the principle that more is better than less, and disappeared automatically after serving two pots of tea!

"Head! That girl is too capable of making trouble! A good princess shouldn't have to come out to be a heroine! A flattering man with a sharp-beaked monkey cheek complained.

In the middle of the gray-clothed people, there was a fat middle-aged man sitting in the big horse golden knife, and the fat man also had a tangled face, "Who said it wasn't!" Young people now! If you hold a sword, you will think you are a hero, so I dare to fly with a broomstick! ”

Another person diligently poured tea for the fat man, "Yesterday's iron kung fu really opened my eyes!" The brothers admire it from the bottom of their hearts! ”

"Yes! Oh, yes! Everyone hurriedly said yes, and their faces and expressions were extremely flattering!

Who knew that the fat man was not happy but worried, and said with a bitter face: "That little aunt and grandmother are too good at causing trouble!" If it weren't for Gonggong Cao's death order, I wouldn't care! ”

Everyone was stunned, "Head, what's wrong?" Is there anything wrong with this? Isn't it possible that what we're doing will be revealed? ”

The fat man sighed and said, "If that's the case, it's nothing, it's a big deal to secretly protect and become openly tracked!" But she actually went to provoke Tian to rip off! ”

"What's wrong with this stripping? Isn't it just a wanted criminal! Let's help the six doors kill him, and the four famous catchers have to thank us! A man in gray said triumphantly.

"That's it! It is! The crowd agreed.

The fat man slapped the back of the man's head, hating iron and steel: "You know a fart!" said that I usually asked you to pay more attention to the news on the rivers and lakes, but you just don't listen! One by one, you just know that to run to Huixian Yaxu, is that where you should go? How much money do you have! Don't think about Lao Tzu lending you money in the future! ”

The man in gray covered the back of his head and begged for mercy with a bitter face: "Don't mind! Head, is there anything else that Tian Stripping Light can't do! ”

The fat man snorted coldly, "He has no background, but his sister has a background!" ”

"His sister?"

"Yes, have you heard of the Shennong Sect?" The fat man looked at the crowd and asked.

"Nope! Isn't it amazing? Which big pie? A man in gray asked.

"Nameless little faction, there are only four people in the entire sect, including Tian Stripping!" The fat man said lightly.

Everyone was happy when they heard this, "Head, it's just a nameless little faction, what's so scary!" She's coming, and the brothers will his sister! ”

"That's right! your sister! Wowha! "The crowd rejoiced!

This unscrupulous swear language makes pedestrians on the side of the road look sideways, if it weren't for the lack of the Internet, they would definitely call the police on their mobile phones!

The corners of the fat man's mouth twitched, "It's numb!" Can't you wait for Lao Tzu to finish speaking? ”

Everyone choked, "Say, head!" ”

"This Shennong Sect is just a cover to cover people's eyes, except for Tian Paoguang, the other three are all women, namely the Red Phoenix, the Pink Phoenix and the Blue Phoenix!" The fat man said solemnly.

"What a red bird and a blue cat! It's not about tongue twisters! A man in gray pouted.

The fat man said again: "This red phoenix and pink phoenix are indeed not to be worried, but the blue phoenix has a great background!" After a pause, he saw that his subordinates were all looking at him curiously, and said: "Blue Phoenix is not the name of one person, but a general term for a class of people!" ”

"What kind of people?"

"The Poison Refining Elder of the Five Poisons Sect...... Candidate! ”

Everyone's faces changed drastically, and their hearts jumped in unison, and it took a while to digest this amazing information!

The fat man looked left and right and said proudly: "I know I'm afraid!" Otherwise, why would I go so hard to carry out a sneak attack! Aren't you afraid that the blue phoenix will come to your door! Now that little shoemaker is a shield for us, you don't even know how to die! ”

"Head! We really admire your five-body throw! The crowd hurried to follow.

The fat man squinted his eyes and enjoyed it, and continued with high interest: "Brother is happy today, so I will let you increase your knowledge!" The Five Poisons Sect is the Great Sect of Miaojiang, and its power is all over Miaodi! There are many major branches in its sect, including several major skills such as poison refining, Gu cultivation, and refining! In the Five Poisons Sect, people do not have the concept of good and evil, and they put interests first! Their slogan is that whoever offends the Five Poisons Sect will die without a corpse! Blue Phoenix is the candidate for the Elder of the First Vein of Poison Refining! ”

The gray-clothed man next to him said abruptly: "No wonder Natian is so arrogant, as a wanted criminal, he actually swaggered through the market in broad daylight!" ”

The fat man nodded and said, "Who said it wasn't!" This field is stripped of all the wives and daughters of people everywhere they go, and even the daughters of many court officials have been murdered! But everyone was afraid of the forces behind it, so they had no choice but to drive it away! And this field is not reckless, when he hears that there is a master, he will hear it and flee, so across several provinces but still at ease! ”

"So, isn't the six-door wanted warrant a decoration?" A man in gray exclaimed.

The fat man looked at him amusedly and said, "If you have a tough backstage, the role of the wanted warrant is just to remind others of your danger!" If you're just a little deflated, then a wanted warrant is the equivalent of a death sentence! Of course, this qiē is not applicable in the capital, even if you are Zhang Zhenren of Wudang behind you, someone will come to arrest you if you commit a crime in the capital, as for whether you are caught or not is another matter! ”

The gray-clothed man on the side suddenly worried: "Head, then the blue phoenix won't trouble that aunt, right?" ”

The fat man was stunned, "This ...... I really didn't think about it, but I heard that Blue Phoenix is the most unreasonable! Maybe he will be angry with her, no, I have to go to the little shoemaker, and he must keep his mouth shut, and I can't give up that aunt and grandmother! As he spoke, he got up.

The gray-clothed men cried out with bitter faces, "Oh my God! What a day it is! We can't wipe her ass for the rest of our lives, can we? ”

The fat man shook his head and said, "It's okay, although this girl has no brains to do things, she has a deep chance and actually joined the Emei faction not long ago!" As long as we escort her into Shudi, everything will be fine, with the strength of the Emei faction, the Five Poisons Sect will not dare to be presumptuous there! ”

……

"My lord, the matter is done!" Shen Lian replied respectfully.

"Well, you guys are free! By the way, when Zhao Jingzhong is arrested, remember to interrogate him well, maybe he can find out some treason and collaboration with the enemy or something! Ling Xiao said casually.

Shen Lian didn't know what to do, sure enough, the official words were two mouths, whatever you wanted! Shen Lian, who works seriously and is an honest person, naturally can't understand the connotation of Ling Xiao's words!

Out of the yamen, Ling Xiao said goodbye, and the three of them walked slowly towards the inn with a ruthless detour. Without the three brocade guards, the eyes of passers-by were no longer so strange, and the two of them regained their previous silent and peaceful atmosphere.

"What are you going to do about the Ji family?" After a while, Ruthless asked lightly.

"The Ji family shouldn't take me seriously, otherwise they wouldn't have faked it to those Jianghu people! It should be that I got a little close to Ji Xiaoming, so it caused their dissatisfaction. But I killed Wei Zhongxian, and I slapped them in the face in a certain way! If I'm not bad, I'm sure they'll send someone when they know the news! Ling Xiao thought for a moment and analyzed.

"Aren't you afraid? I heard about the Ji family from my husband, and if they go all out, I'm afraid they won't be able to shelter you even if they are full of flowers! Ruthlessly asked again.

Ling Xiao's eyebrows fluttered when she heard this: "Oh! Are you concerned about me? ”

"No, I just don't want to finish the mission!" Ruthlessly said coldly.

Ling smiled, "Don't worry, as a villain, you have to let some teasers come over to upgrade the protagonist first!" Even if I don't make a move, I can deal with it! ”

Ruthless sometimes finds it difficult to understand Ling Xiao's thinking, but she is often very good at understanding the deep meaning of other people's words, "I hope the truth can be as optimistic as you think!" ”

Ling Xiao smiled silently, and the two continued to move forward.

At the same time, the men in gray also came to the little shoemaker's house, but all they saw was an empty room.

……

"Hmm!" The Buddha seal clasped his hands together.

"Hmm!" Li Yingqiong bit her fingers.

"Hmm!" Ling Xiao clasped his hands to his chest.

"Uh-huh! Only three words are not enough to make up the number of words, so if you have this time, you should think about what to do next! Ruthlessly rolled his eyes and watched the three of them play treasure.

"I'm not thinking!" Ling Xiao leaned helplessly on the map, "Now there are two choices, one is to go back the same way, those people in the rivers and lakes know that they are being tricked, they should not wait there stupidly." The second is to continue our detour plan, how far and how far to detour, anyway, the initiative is in our hands, let those people eat ashes behind them! ”

Li Yingqiong pouted disdainfully, "They all say you're smart!" Now it seems that the girl is far behind! ”

"How so?" Ling Xiao said unconvinced.

"Humph! Although you have hung those Jianghu people for several days, they will not give up so easily, and anyone with a little brain can think that you have taken a fork in the road. Once they figure it out, they're sure to salivate after them! If you go back, won't they catch you? Li Yingqiong looked at Ling Xiao's surprised expression and said proudly: "The second one is even more unreliable, don't forget your task, the dragon vein is radiating from the capital, which means that all the cities between Jinan and the capital are within the scope of your exploration." Such an obvious route, you think people will not be able to see it! No matter how you take a detour, as long as people stay in the cities along the way, they will not be waiting for work! ”

Ling Xiao looked shocked and hugged his fists and said, "Heroine wisdom!" So what do you mean we do? ”

"Well, of course it's a route that everyone in the world expected! Hum! Li Yingqiong turned around arrogantly and made it clear that she would no longer express her opinion.

Ling Xiao looked like he had an epiphany, and slapped the table and shouted, "Okay! Just listen to you, now everyone go back and pack their bags, and we'll be out right away! ”

"Huh? Did I say anything? Li Yingqiong muttered in confusion, and pulled her away with a helpless smile on the side, this stupid girl couldn't even hear Ling Xiao teasing her!

Buddha Yin didn't care and went back to the room, anyway, he wasn't in a hurry. Hua Manlou sat on the side with a folding fan full of anticipation, ready to listen to what route is beyond the expectations of the world!

"Why don't you go back and clean up?" Ling Xiao asked curiously.

Hua Manlou shook his head and said, "No, my luggage has been in the carriage and doesn't need to be packed." ”

Ling Xiao sat quietly on the side when he heard this, the two were relatively speechless for a while, and after a while, Ling smiled and said, "If someone from the Ji family comes, what are you going to do?" I said I wasn't afraid, but the Ji family was so fierce, I was still a little stunned! ”

Hua Manlou was silent for a moment and sighed: "I can only guarantee that you will not be besieged!" ”

Ling Xiao looked like he had already known this, "I understand, the Ji family is powerful, if you make a move, they will also let the Grandmaster dispatch, then it will be endless." ”

"So the best-case scenario is that you fight them alone and fight them off in the name of a duel." Hua Manlou said solemnly.

Ling smiled and categorically denied, "No, the best case is not to meet them!" ”

Hua Manlou was slightly stunned when he heard this, "What do you want to do?" ”

"Our first target is Jinan, which cannot be avoided no matter what! But the Ji family won't do anything there, because it is one of the places where natural disasters are the heaviest, and it is also the focus of the investigation! If you do it there, it will seem that the Ji family has no room for people, and it completely ignores the overall situation! The more prestigious the family, the more fame it is! If the Ji family makes trouble for me, they will definitely rob the road along the way! So Jinan is the only safe zone for us! Ling Xiao snorted coldly.

"Then how to avoid the interception of the Ji family and many people in the martial arts to reach Jinan?" Hua Manlou asked again.

Ling Xiao narrowed his eyes to reveal a lewd expression and said with a sneer: "Everyone knows that we are in a carriage with a shabby appearance and a luxurious interior to investigate along the way, and I am known for being loyal to the emperor!" They must not have imagined that my brother would be a rebellious child today! To hell with the quest and the wagon! The gentlemen want to take a boat down the river and go straight to Jinan! ”
