Chapter 9: Seven Days Remaining

Late at night, the continuous drizzle in the south of the Yangtze River finally began to stop, the breeze came, the bearer was cool, and everyone in the yamen had already gone back to rest.

The deserted street, silent, not far away occasionally came one or two dog barking, Xu Jianping was in the Yamen study to read the case, maybe sleepy, Xu Jianping walked to the candlestick, blew it out, turned back to go back to the wing room to rest, opened the study door, came to the backyard, the air after the rain is very fresh, people can't help but smell it, very comfortable.

"That's not right!"

Xu Jianping seemed to notice something unusual, and quickly returned to the chamber, took the long knife, and followed the slight smell of blood in the air to the bluestone road alley behind the yamen.

"Click, click, click."

At the end of the alley, a white horse, pacing back and forth in the same place, the horse walked very slowly, very lightly, perhaps for fear that the person on the horse would be bumped, Xu Jianping looked left and right, and there seemed to be no outsiders, so he had to walk over by himself.

On the white horse, Bai Qiuxue was already overinjured and unconscious, lying on the horse's back, and the blood stains flowing from his left shoulder reddened the mane on one side of the white horse.

Xu Jianping looked at it, full of white hair, handsome and a little evil, looking at his face, slightly pale, with blood stains on the corners of his mouth, obviously just after a battle, the purple embroidered clothes, plus the seven-section bamboo cane, let Xu Jianping understand his identity at once.

"Jingzhou is about to turn the sky upside down."

Xu Jianping took the reins and took them to the backyard of the yamen, and the white horse seemed to feel his kindness and did not resist. Xu Jianping carried Bai Qiuxue to the side hall and put it on the vacant long case, the previous skeleton of Zhao Chengyi had been sent back to the garrison in the south of the city by Xu Jianping two days ago.

Xu Jianping came to the backyard, fetched a bucket of water, cleaned the wound, and then walked to the gate of the yamen and knocked on Lao Song, who was napping on the stone steps.

Lao Song, as the name suggests, is an old man surnamed Song, who is already in the age of sixties, and when he was young, he was also the fast catcher of the yamen, without a father, without a mother, without children and grandchildren. So when he got old, he became the old man of the yamen, and he didn't have any hobbies on weekdays, but at night, he drank and slept with a wine gourd.

"Old Song Tou, I'm tired of borrowing your wine." Xu Jianping woke up Lao Song and said.

"Over there, take it yourself" After saying that, Lao Song fell asleep leisurely.

Xu Jianping carried a pot of wine, came to the backyard, lit a fire, took out a seven-inch single-edged dagger from the wooden box, and put it on the fire to roast.

"Pu"

With a bang, the wine was sprayed on the dagger, and then it was continued to be roasted in the fire, and so on three times. Xu Jianping took the dagger in his right hand and carefully cut off the rotten flesh from the wound on Bai Qiuxue's left shoulder, and then roasted the dagger until it was red, and did not talk nonsense, it was directly burned on the wound.

"Zi, zi, zi."

"Ah......h

Perhaps because of the unbearable pain, Bai Qiuxue, who was in a coma, woke up, looked at Xu Jianping weakly, and then his eyelids began to sink, and he slowly continued to pass out.

Xu Jianping was busy for about an hour, raised his hand to wipe the sweat beads on his forehead, found a bed and futon, covered Bai Qiuxue's body, and then returned to the side room, slowly falling into contemplation.

The Han Dynasty became a martial artist for twenty-two years. In Jingzhou City, Ling Xiao Dao Changji, the top of the chivalrous list, was not destined to be on the top of Zishun Tower, defeating Bai Qiuxue, the third best ghost doctor on the narrow list, as soon as the news came out, the entire rivers and lakes were boiling, and countless martial arts people rushed there.

Following

Inside the yamen, many officials were discussing yesterday's events. Chen Yibing came to the yamen early, hurriedly ran to the backyard, and found Xu Jianping.

Xu Jianping was washing up in the backyard, and Chen Yibing followed him inseparably and muttered about yesterday's battle situation, "Alas, such a grand scene, I didn't even witness it with my own eyes, and I don't know if the ghost doctor is dead or alive now." Outsiders spread it so miraculously that they never thought that they would be defeated in one move, alas, they were disappointed, and they were in vain......

Xu Jianping did not answer, but blinked and motioned to Chen Yibing to look behind him.

Although Chen Yibing didn't know what he meant, the perception of the warrior let him know that there was someone behind him, so he turned around and saw Bai Qiuxue leaning against the door, looking at the two of them with an evil smile, "Who are you, why are you here." ”

"A contemptible person is a vain person as your lord speaks." Bai Qiuxue moved slightly, leaning against the door frame in a more comfortable position.

"Jingzhou Yamen arrested Chen Yibing, I have seen Lord Yushi, the right thing is to say that Lingxiao Dao Chang, I don't know what to do, I dare to go against the adult, I really don't know whether ......to live or die" Chen Yibing was very alert, and knelt down with a "bang", and pulled Xu Jianping's robe before he finished.

Although the Imperial History of Embroidery is only a supernumerary institution, because of its leader Jiang Feng, although he is not in an official position, he is still powerful.

Xu Jianping kicked his legs, shameless to be in the company of this coward, and said to Bai Qiuxue, "The wound has been treated last night, as for the internal injury, I believe you have your own way." ”

"Thank you, Your Excellency, for coming to the rescue last night, you are Xu Jianping from Jingzhou! That poisonous saying comes from your mouth? Bai Qiuxue is also a smart person, and after a little thought, he has already guessed Xu Jianping's identity.

Xu Jianping nodded, "Well, it was a conclusion reached after the investigation." ”

"You only have seven days, and if the case has not been clarified after seven days, Daoist Ling Xiao will definitely come, and he will not be able to protect you." Bai Qiuxue used an extremely flat tone to tell the two people in the backyard a terrifying news.

"Who is Daoist Ling Xiao, I don't know him before, why do you want to kill someone?" Although Xu Jianping was a little surprised, he was not afraid.

Bai Qiuxue looked at his expression, calm, and also quite appreciated, "I will tell you these days later, a certain time I came to buy some time for you, as long as you solve the case within seven days, then the old way of the bull's nose will naturally not be difficult for you." ”

It turned out that Ling Xiao Dao Elder Ji Wuming was the first disciple of the third generation of Heavenly Master Dao, and he came to Jingzhou this time to prevent the investigation of this case on the orders of his master Zhang Heng. The Jingzhou serial murder case was originally an ordinary murder case, but due to the strange way of his death, as well as the curse of ghosts and gods in the mouths of the people, this case became known to the whole country, of course, this is indispensable to the promotion of the prison division.

"Seven days! Somebody should do his best. Xu Jianping pursed his lips, this was regarded as fish on the board, and then turned around and returned to the wing.

Seeing this, Bai Qiuxue didn't say anything, and took out a piece of Bai Juan from the placket.

"Ahem."

After spreading it out, a touch of blood is like a rose in the snow, enchanting and dazzling.

"Bull nose, it's so ruthless!"

Ask for collections, ask for recommendations, ask for attention, and the back will be more exciting
