Xu Yang and Xiucai hid in a dark corner and watched the corpse of the corpse, and saw that the person put the real person on the cart and walked towards the outside of the city, so they followed the person all the way to the entrance of the west city. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

When the two of them followed the two pillars of incense all the way, they heard the sound of crows "quack, quack" in the distance, and the wind was blowing around, and the whining sound was full of ears, and then they saw that the tombs were chaotic, and the black pressure could not be seen. The two hid behind a mulberry tree, and saw that the servant had hastily buried the real person, and returned to the city with a cart.

Xiucai was very puzzled why Xu Yang came to see the corpse of the prisoner, and when he was puzzled, he saw the other party running to a grave, kowtowing three times, saying something in his mouth, and then pulling himself back to the city.

When the two came to the city one after another, Xu Yang saw the residents running around to fight the fire, save the dead and help the wounded, and move the corpses. Xu Yang saw a group of residents carrying wooden barrels coming towards the prefect's yamen, and looked towards the yamen, only to see that the yamen was already in tatters, and there were several corpses of guards lying at the door, while the residents were pretending to pour water towards the burning place, how could they extinguish the burning flames? It seems that the residents also hated the prefect to the core, and reluctantly poured water on the flames, and in their hearts they just wished that the flames would burn the prefect to the wreckage and kill all the officers and soldiers.

Seeing the residents like this, Xu Yang also understood all the comings, walked towards one of the residents, pulled the other party, and asked, "Do you know who set fire to the city and killed people?"

The resident was pouring water on a wooden stake for a long time, and when he saw a jailer approaching, he was already pulled by the other party before he could dodge, and said respectfully: "The grass people just saw that under the cover of night, there were dozens of black-clothed people killing people and setting fire in the city, and the rest were unknown. After speaking, he saw that the other party was pondering there, and hurriedly left with the barrel.

When Xu Yang heard that the grass people said that it was done by a group of black-clothed people, he immediately guessed that Zhang Feng and other people from the Holy Lotus Sect did it. But what puzzled Xu Yang was that this Holy Lotus Sect often went against the imperial court? Why did it make such a deed of losing conscience, killing people and setting fires?

The Xiucai next to him saw the doubts in Xu Yang's heart, and was about to whisper to explain to the other party, when he suddenly saw a group of officers and soldiers rushing towards him, and out of instinct, he hurriedly retreated to the side. Xu Yang also saw a group of officers and soldiers rushing towards the prefect's yamen, and hurriedly retreated with Xiucai to make way. After the two of them got out of the way one after another, the group of officers and soldiers just looked at Xu Yang and the others, and then smashed open the gate of the prefect's mansion and rushed towards it, surrounded by vigilant soldiers.

Xu Yang saw that the prefect's yamen had become this dilapidated state, and that most of the members of the Holy Lotus Sect were from poor backgrounds and had suffered humiliation, so how could he let the prefect himself go? Xu Yang saw that the officers and soldiers were guarding around the prefect's office, and he was afraid that his identity would be discovered, so he hurriedly pulled Xiucai out of here.

Xu Yang looked at the sky as if it was about to dawn, and the surviving residents around him were stunned on the street one by one, looking at the dilapidated shops, large and small corpses scattered all over the ground, and from time to time there were bursts of cries and howls. Xu Yang saw Xiucai following him and asked, "Xiucai, what is your name, where do you live, and what are your plans for the future?"

"His name is Ma Zichen, which is the 'proliferation' of Yangfeng's six years. I live in 'Anning Village', ten miles southeast of Xiangcheng. I just want to avenge my grievances, avenge my wife, and clear my innocence. Thank you to the benefactor for the rescue, but I don't know what the benefactor is called?" said Na Xiucai.

Xu Yang heard that the other party was the sixth year of Yangfeng, that is, the name of the reigning emperor of the dynasty. Emperor Yangfeng is the ninth emperor of the Celestial Dynasty to enter the Central Plains, and Zengsheng is also known as Zengguangsheng, which is not like endowment with money and food, but it is better than epiphytic treatment, and it is in the position of Xiucai between the two. Xu Yang heard that the other party still did not forget to redress his grievances, and said: "There is an idler who wanders in all directions, named Xu Yang. How did they get caught in prison, and who killed your wife?"

"One night last month, the students were reviewing their homework at home when they saw the lady returning home in a panic. The student asked why, but my wife kept silent, so I didn't pay attention. But when it was dawn the next day, I found that the lady was cold, and I saw that the lady was dead without seeing it. The students were very panicked and hurriedly reported the case, and the people from the county government came to my home and just looked at it and left. While the students were waiting for the results at home, suddenly the catchers came to my house and locked me up, saying that I had killed my wife. I love my wife very much, and I have never had any quarrels, so how could I kill my wife with my own hands? The student was arrested and quickly taken to the county office, and the county magistrate also said that the evidence was conclusive, and I confessed to killing my mother. I didn't admit it to death, and in the end, the magistrate hit the student with a board, and the student fainted because of the pain. When I woke up again, I was already in the prefect's prison, and I was told about the beheading of the Autumn Queen. The students are really wronged!" Ma Zichen said with tears in his eyes.

Xu Yang saw that the other party's case was full of loopholes, and also saw that it was when Xiucai was in a coma that he drew the charge, what is it if he is not wronged? Xu Yang saw the other party's crying and crying appearance, and he didn't want to ask about the other party's scars, and asked about other things: "I have a doubt in my heart, you said that the Holy Lotus Sect often goes against the government and the court, and hates the profiteers and thieves, why do you want to kill people and set fire to the city, and even let go of children and women?" When Xu Yang left, he saw children, women, and old people lying on the ground, and he was very puzzled.

Ma Zichen looked around, and found that the residents were cleaning up the corpses and building damage, and said, "Brother Tai, you don't know anything. If all the evil sects and crooked factions who rebelled did not have the capital and strong strength, what could they do against the imperial court? And these innocent shops and residents may be the merchants in the shops. And in order to get money and other things, the men in black naturally want to loot the shops in order to get the money in them, and then recruit troops and horses to strengthen their strength. ”

"What a bunch of robbers who are inferior to pigs and dogs. For his own selfishness, he really killed people everywhere and set fires everywhere under the guise of doing the right thing for heaven, and said something to vent his anger for the people of Limin, and he was also a good person. I think it's all about achieving my ulterior motives. Xu Yang said indignantly.

Seeing what happened to him, Xiucai no longer had any extravagant hopes for this world, just hoping that his wife could be blind under the nine springs. Xiucai watched as the shops burned one after another, especially some of the pawnshops, which were even more dilapidated and full of corpses. When Xiucai was walking ahead, he suddenly saw a group of black-clothed people rushing out of a money bank at the crossroads, and then fled before it was dark.

Xu Yang naturally also saw the group of black-clothed people rushing out of a money bank, the gate of the money bank was broken, and the ground was full of dead bodies, and a plaque was hung on the top of the money bank, titled "Hengli Money Village". There are four major money banks in the Celestial Empire, namely Hengli, Henghe, Hengxing, and Hengyuan, and Hengli is undoubtedly the most abundant in the four major banks. Xu Yang saw that there were ten people in black, and each of them was carrying a heavy small package behind him, and he didn't want to pay attention to this group of people robbing houses, but after seeing a striking black mole on the left eyebrow of the first man in black, as if he had three eyes, he was angry, and immediately guessed that this was President Sun Qian. And the last person was obese and moved slowly, which also aroused Xu Yang's vigilance.

After Xu Yang saw that the group of people also noticed himself and Xiucai, his face was obviously panicked, and then he disappeared at the door with a puff of smoke. Xu Yang knew that Sun Qian was always promoted because he caught him, but he couldn't understand why an officer and soldier also took advantage of the fire to rob and steal money and goods like bandits. Xu Yang saw that Sun Qianzong and the others slipped away from under his nose, and snorted coldly, thinking that this group of people would sell their stolen goods there, he suddenly brightened up, and thought: "This group of people caused me to be imprisoned, how can I just let them go freely." Since Sun Qian is always among them, and the fat person at the end must be a mudworm. Now that the city has been destroyed by the Holy Lotus Sect, the city gate will definitely be closed, and this group of people will naturally not be able to go out of the city, presumably this group of people will definitely dispose of the spoils somewhere in the city. ”

"Brother Tai, what are you thinking?" asked Ma Zichen.

When Xu Yang was thinking about where this group of people would hide, he was awakened by the other party and sneered: "Now in this world, thieves are not like thieves, people are not like people, officials are not like officials, and soldiers are not like soldiers. Do you want to know who these men in black are? Do you want to see a good show?"

"Brother Tai, don't want it! Whether these men in black are robbers or rebels of the Holy Lotus Sect, how can we manage so much if we follow our path? This kind of thing should be handled by the government, so why should we be muddy and ask for trouble. Ma Zichen said.

Xu Yang saw that the other party didn't want to pay attention to these things, and he also knew that the other party was afraid of being entangled in numbness, so he said: "Do you think that if the officers and soldiers see such a situation, they will really punish the evil and promote the good, and eliminate the harm for the people? As long as the officers and soldiers don't take advantage of the fire to rob, it's good, and you still expect them to do the right thing for heaven." If you look at what happened to yourself, you can see it at a glance. If you are cowardly and afraid of getting into trouble, then you will wait here for me, and let me go and meet these robbers for a while. After saying that, Sa Yazi chased after the black-clothed man's escape route.

Ma Zichen saw that the other party was going to chase the robbers, thought about it, and also wanted to see the true face of the man in black, and shouted, "You wait for me." Don't run so fast!"

In a shop not far from the prefect's yamen, I saw that the door of the shop was open, and then I saw more than a dozen black-clothed people seeing that no one noticed him behind and nearby, and slipped into it, firmly closing the door of the shop, and leaving two minions with big shoulders and round waists and a cross-faced face to patrol. And on the top of this shop, hang a plaque with the inscription "Fushou Tobacco House" four big characters. And just as the two of them were patrolling at the door of the shop, they suddenly saw two jailers coming towards them, and they were shocked, but when they saw that they were jailers, not officers and soldiers, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The two of them pretended to be chatting, watched the two prison guards walk in front of them, stepped forward to greet them, and asked calmly, "Hello two chiefs." Is the chief patrolling or going to breakfast?" These two people are Xu Yang and Ma Zichen.

Xu Yang saw the two minions patrolling at the door of the shop, and saw that there were no other people around, he sneered in his heart, put his hands behind his back, and said in an official tone: "Have you seen suspicious people hanging out nearby?"

"No, no. We are honest residents and have never seen anyone suspicious wandering around. If I see it, I will definitely go back to the yamen to tell you. Hehe......" The two minions hurriedly waved their hands and said.

Xu Yang saw that the two of them didn't dare to look directly at him, and flickered again, and saw the two of them blocking the door of the shop, as if they didn't let him in, so he guessed why. After Xu Yang saw the name of this shop, he knew that it was the smoke house with many mudworms, and he felt more and more that his guess was correct, and said: "When we were on patrol, how did we see a group of people in black getting into the smoke house. Is this smoke house hiding that group of men in black?"

When the two minions saw each other say such things, they panicked, waved their hands and said, "No, absolutely not." It must have been the two chiefs who were dazzled!"

"Really, if not, do you dare to let me go in and search for it?" Xu Yang asked.

When the two minions saw that the other party was going to search the smoke house, they were shocked, and hurriedly said: "Two chiefs, we are really honest and serious businessmen, and we dare not hide thieves and thieves without permission." Our grandfather has a friendship with Zhu Zhifu, and I also ask the two officials to show mercy!" After the two finished speaking, they hurriedly stretched out their hands to Xu Yang's palm.

Xu Yang saw the two of them stuffing two pieces of broken silver into his hands, and felt more and more that his judgment was correct. Xu Yang pretended to put the broken silver in his hand into his arms, and said with a smile: "As long as it is an honest businessman, our officers and soldiers will naturally not embarrass the businessman." Since you don't see any suspicious people and honest businessmen, we'll look elsewhere. After speaking, Ma Zichen, who was standing still next to him, made a look at him, and both left.

When the two minions saw the two of them leaving, they breathed a sigh of relief and muttered, "What a thing! How dare you extort our money, and I'll clean you up later." ”

"What did you just say?" When Xu Yang asked, he saw the two minions turn their heads in horror and slam towards the necks of the two of them, instantly knocking the two unconscious.

Ma Zichen saw that Xu Yang was about to leave, and thought that the other party had given up the idea of justice, and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, when he saw the other party turn around suddenly, and as soon as he asked a word, he knocked out the two minions who turned around. Ma Zichen ran to the two minions, stroked their noses and chests with his hands, and shouted in horror: "You killed someone." How did you beat two people to death? You just need to knock them out, so why do you have to put them to death?"
