Chapter 29.Border County Bloody Case (4)
"How can this be, it seems that the report of the Yunzhong County Detention Center is true, and the bloody case in Woyang County must have been committed by the people who escorted the convoy. Pen ร fun ร Pavilion www. ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ ใ info" Feng Jing, the county guard of Yanmen County, was shocked after hearing Wang Ran's report from Woyang County, and then said to Wang Ran, "Hurry up and find a medical officer to treat Zhao County, you must cure the county order, in addition, this matter seems to be a bit tricky, I will send the right person to investigate, you can retreat first." โ
"No, the county guard. The county prince Ran said and withdrew from the county government.
Feng Jing, the county guard of Yanmen County, paced back and forth in the living room with his hands behind his back for a few steps, thinking about who to send to investigate this clue, and slowly remembered an idea, and then shouted outside the door: "Someone." โ
A guard walked in and responded, "County guard." โ
In view of the fact that Yanmen County attaches great importance to leading the counties to guard the borders, Yunzhong County is specially ordered to send outstanding subordinates to follow up and investigate the clues of the strange convoy and the strange woman, and immediately arrange personnel to go after receiving the order, without delay, and the violators will be punished according to military law. Feng Jing, the county guard of Yanmen County, added when he said this, "Then attach a detailed copy of the route of the strange convoy that I have learned, plus a copy of the county guard's assistance to check and clear the customs waist card, and immediately send it to Yunzhong County on a fast horse." โ
"No. The guards who received the order came out.
"Hehehe, Yunzhong County found out about the robbers so quickly and pointed the bloody case to the strange convoy, there is really a master, this time I should let the master be useful. Feng Jing, the county guard of Yanmen County, took a sip of tea with satisfaction and said with a smile.
The county guard of Yunzhong County soon received the order of the county guard of Yanmen County, and the second monk was puzzled, thinking about why the bloody case of your Yanmen County was pushed to my Yunzhong County, but because Feng Jing was the county guard personally ordered by the emperor, he was the commander of the surrounding counties, and if the things he explained were not handled well, it would not be too much to deal with them according to military law, or honestly follow the execution, who to send to check this clue, and suddenly thought that if he didn't do anything, he would directly push it to the person who reported this clue to do it, and the county guard of Yunzhong County copied a copy according to the order of the county guard of Yanmen County, replaced it with the signature of Yunzhong County, and sent it directly to the hands of Zhang Yifeng and Zhang Tunchang in the north of Yunzhong Countyใ
Zhang Yifeng received the order from the county guard, and was stunned for a long time, thought about it and said to Zhang Shun beside him: "Go and invite Shi Lao over, I have something important to discuss." โ
"No. โ
Shi Lao hurriedly walked into the room where Zhang Yifeng was and asked, "Zhang Tunchang, is there anything wrong with calling me over?"
"Old Shi, please sit down, I received an order from a superior, I don't know what to do for a while, please take a look and give me an idea." โ
Shi Lao took the book and read it and said, "What does Zhang Tunchang want to do?"
"I don't know what the county guard means, let me, a rough man guarding the border, and be a small tun chief to perform such a thing, isn't it to catch ducks on the shelves. โ
"No, Zhang Tunchang, I think this matter was originally a matter of Yanmen County, and now it has been pushed to Yunzhong County, and the county guard of Yunzhong County has no choice, so he simply pushes it to the end, we have written this clue before, so the county guard has pushed it here, and the order is simple here, and the chief of this matter has to do it if he wants to, and he has to do it if he doesn't want to. โ
"This, this, this old man, how can you do it. โ
Shi Lao walked back and forth a few steps back and forth and said: "Zhang Tunchang, if the letter is too old, the old man is willing to go with Tun Chang to carry out this task, I don't know if it is possible." โ
"Hehehe, I Zhang Yifeng can't ask for it, accompanied by the experienced Shi Lao, I have no worries about this matter, Zhang Yifeng is very grateful here. โ
"Zhang Tunchang doesn't have to be polite, the old man also has my plans, originally we came to Dahan from the ancient tomb, and this strange woman brought it over, it was she who used spells to open the door of time, this time to investigate this matter, by the way, I can also check the way to return to our era." โ
"Hahaha, since Shi Lao and I have the same goal of finding that strange woman, we will naturally go the same way. โ
"That's nature, that's nature, hehehe. Then the two old men, who were over half a hundred years old, held hands and looked at each other and smiled.
Zhang Tunchang smiled and asked, "Old Shi, how many people do you think we brought over?"
"Zhang Tunchang, I know that the strange woman is strong in martial arts, if you use force, I'm afraid that the people in our tun will give as much as they want, if it is to spy on the news, and then report it after it is confirmed, just you and me, to prevent the target from being exposed, what do you think?"
"Okay, just the two of us. โ
"Zhang Tunchang, when are we leaving?"
"Due to the urgency of the order, we will leave tomorrow morning, what do you think, Shi Lao?"
"Okay, just according to Zhang Tunchang. โ
Early the next morning, Zhang Yifeng and Shi Lao put on the clothes of ordinary Han people, and handed over the affairs in the tun to Zhang Shun to manage on their behalf, and the necessary items on the road were prepared, and they rode two fast horses.
The two of them quickly arrived in Taiyuan County in one day, and found the inn written on the clue according to the map, Zhang Yifeng and Shi Lao each wore a hat and knocked on the door of the store, and a little two hurriedly greeted him: "Two masters, the love inside, is it a stay or a meal?"
"Meals. Zhang Yifeng shouted.
"Okay, please sit inside, two masters. After the two of them sat down, Xiao Er began to report the name of the dish, "Roast mutton, beef stew, fried chicken legs, braised fish and all kinds of seasonal vegetables, what do you want?"
"Okay, Xiao Er, here are two catties of beef, ten steamed buns and four taels of rice wine. Zhang Yifeng turned around and asked Shi Lao Dao when he said this, "What does Shi Lao think of these?"
"Okay, that's it, hurry up, we're in a hurry. Shi Lao said.
"Okay, two catties of high-quality beef, ten steamed buns and four taels of rice wine. Xiao Erchong reported from the kitchen inside.
Zhang Yifeng looked at the emptiness around and said to Shi Lao: "It seems that the business of this store is average." โ
"It seems like this, we are the only guests, hehehe" Shi Lao waved his hand and called Xiao Er over and asked: "Xiao Er, although the location of your store is not a busy city, I see that the surrounding roads are quite lively, why is your store's business so cold?"
The shopkeeper immediately approached Shi Lao and replied softly: "Hehe, this master, you are talking about it, a major homicide occurred in our store a few days ago, six of the eight guest officers living in the backyard were killed and one was injured, and another group of convoys that stayed mysteriously disappeared in the middle of the night, the scene was bloody and terrifying, yes, I was scared to death, you said that it has only been less than a week, presumably the two of you are from afar, I don't know, but rest assured that the quality of our meals is absolutely excellent." โ
"Do you know where the convoy that disappeared on the night of the crime went, how many people were in the convoy, and what did it do?"
"There are about twenty people, and the shots are very generous, who can know what to do and where to go, only after the government solves the case. โ
"Cough, cough, cough. Suddenly, there were a few coughs from the back hall, and Xiao Er hurriedly stopped.
"Second master, the beef steamed bun wine you want is here, it's all ready, please use it slowly, call me if you have something." After a while, Xiao Er took the steamed buns and turned to leave.
Zhang Yifeng said: "Old Shi, how do you see this investigation, they have been gone for nearly a week, let's chase over there?"
"Don't worry, their carriage will definitely not be able to outrun our horses, the convoy will definitely go out of the city, don't we have a waist card, after dinner, go to the four city gates and ask, see that there is a similar convoy at the city gate that day to know the direction they are going. โ
"Good. The two of them picked up the steamed buns as they spoke, drank the beef and drank the wine, and after a while, they ate all the fine food.
The two walked out of the store, rode straight to the south gate, and as soon as they came to the south gate, Zhang Yifeng bowed his hand to the doorman and said, "Door master, hello everyone, is the steward on duty here?"
A doorman said with a bad face: "What are you doing, what are you looking for us to take care of?"
"We are from Yunzhong County, and we were sent by the county guard of Yanmen County to investigate a case. Saying that, Zhang Yifeng showed his waist card.
When the doorman saw the waist card, he suddenly showed a smile: "Yo, it's an important person sent by the county guard of Yanmen County, sir, wait a minute, I'll call the steward immediately." โ
"Hahahaha, that master called me, that master called me. The steward shouted and walked out of the little house by the city gate.
Zhang Yifeng couldn't get used to these flattering faces, and reluctantly endured the discomfort and asked: "This steward, we were entrusted by the county guard to investigate the clues of a case, and asked if there was a convoy of twenty people passing by here five or six days ago?"
"Five or six days ago,............ No, there must be, I've been on duty for half a month, and I've been staring at it all the time. โ
"Will you go out in the middle of the night?"
"Master, this door is closed at night, and if you can't pass the vehicle, if you open the door, you must know through me. โ
"Oh, thank you, steward, so bother. โ
"Hehehe, thank you, I will come back when I have something. โ
Zhang Yifeng, Shi Lao so asked the east gate and the west gate, the east gate verified that they had not seen, when they came to the west gate, the steward greeted him with a smile, when asked about the convoy, the steward said: "About six days ago at midnight there was a convoy, about 20 cars, looking at the goods are very heavy, ask to open the door, I am sleepy, let them wait for the morning and then go out of the city, who knows that a woman took out the waist card of the king of Wu Kingdom, I am a small doorman who can not afford to offend, I have to open the door, let them out." โ
"Don't be surprised, we just asked, thank you for clues. โ
"The second master has tormented me so politely, if you need anything, just come back. โ
So the two walked out of the west gate, Zhang Yifeng said: "Old Shi, let's follow up to the west, right?"
"Zhang Tunchang, may I ask what city is in the west?"
"To the west is Upper County. โ
"If I remember correctly, Wu should be in the southeast, right?"
"Exactly, why did Shi Lao ask where Wu was located?"
"Just now, the manager of the Ximen Gate said that the woman took out the waist card of the king of Wu at midnight, I think this convoy must be connected with Wu Guo, we might as well chase in the direction of Wu Guo. โ
"Old Shi, this doesn't seem to be very reasonable, they should go out of the south gate when they go to Wu Kingdom, why do they go out of the city through the west gate?"
"Hahahaha. Shi Lao said with a smile, "This call strikes east and west, go west to south, but unfortunately they won't think of using a waist card at the city gate, otherwise we will directly follow the wrong direction." โ
"High, it's really high, just listen to Shi Lao, we turned around at the intersection in front of us to the south. โ
The two of them went all the way to the south, and when they passed by Shangdang County, they confirmed that the convoy had gone out of the south gate three days ago, and then the two of them continued to chase south, under the scorching sun, they suddenly saw a city in front of them, Shi Lao asked: "Zhang Tunchang, what is the place ahead?"
"It's East County ahead. โ
"East County, East County. Shi Lao felt how this name was so familiar, and suddenly patted his head and said, "Oh, this is my hometown, and the ancient city of my hometown is located in Dongjun." โ
"Oh, Shi Lao, congratulations on coming to my hometown, I will become a guest when I go to Dongjun, hahaha. โ
"Hehehe, it's a real honor to be able to witness the appearance of my hometown 2,000 years ago. โ
"Hahahaha......"
The two of them talked and laughed and accelerated the speed of progress, the mission was on their shoulders, and whether it was Longtan or the tiger's den in front of them, they were all moving forward.
