Chapter 22: Qian Catcher Injured
Xu Jianping came to the backyard, holding a map of Jingzhou City in his hand, and his eyes kept wandering near Xiaoxiang Pavilion, the house on that day would not disappear for no reason, and what he saw that day was even real.
"Is it possible that the house also exists underground? It's impossible, I saw the moonlight that day, so it must be on the land, the dark river, the boat, is it on the other side of the Xiangjiang River? ”
Xu Jianping's eyes skimmed over the Xiangjiang River and aimed at the opposite side of the Xiangjiang River, where a few big characters were written, which made his eyes widen, his expression was abrupt, and the details of the case kept flashing in his mind.
In this stunned effort, he suddenly turned over from the locust tree in the backyard and came down a person! This person fell into the air, waved his palm, and attacked Xu Jianping directly!
Xu Jianping heard the sound of the rustling wind coming from the top of his head, he couldn't be surprised, he hurriedly rolled to the ground, the man hit the air with a palm, and took advantage of Xu Jianping's unstable body shape, and then made another palm, Xu Jianping could not avoid it, so he had to attack back with his palm, and he slapped the man hard.
After Xu Jianping took a palm, he felt very strange, although the palm of his hand was shocked and numb, it was a breath that eased up, no pain or itching, just that palm, although the other party's palm was as hard as a steel stone, but it had no stamina, after a palm, there was no strength, quite strange.
Before Xu Jianping could see this person's appearance clearly, this person actually took out a long sword from his sleeve, pulled a sword flower, and attacked Xu Jianping in three ways.
Xu Jianping didn't have time to think about it, took out the wooden box, threw it directly, and shouted without caring about his face: "There are thorns, thorns, friends, friends, friends, friends, friends, friends, .................."
"What did you do, you even made a sneak attack!" After Xu Jianping made up his mind, he saw that the person who attacked was actually Bai Qiuxue, one of the four great envoys of the embroidered clothes.
Bai Qiuxue withdrew her long sword, patted her clothes, looked at Xu Jianping, who was slightly embarrassed, and said: "Bai's injuries have healed seven or eight times, come here today to see how the case of the poet and immortal of the Han Dynasty is investigated?" ”
Xu Jianping was very unhappy when he heard his words, and after thinking about it, he also knew the reason for his anger, and couldn't help but smile.
"You must know that you only have three days, and after three days, that bull-nosed old man will definitely come to take your life, and Bai may not be able to save you after a long time." Bai Qiuxue looked at Xu Jianping smirking there, and subconsciously reminded.
The reason why Bai Qiuxue came to Jingzhou to supervise the investigation of this case was that one was the order of Jiang Feng, the embroidered clothes imperial historian, and the other was that in the past few years, he himself had been secretly investigating the tragedy of destroying the door five years ago.
The last time Zishun Tower was fought, although Bai Qiuxue injured Ji Wusheng with a poisonous stinger, he was also seriously injured, Bai Qiuxue was outside the city to recuperate these days, and it was not until now that he knew that there was another spontaneous combustion case in Jingzhou City, and Xu Jianping went in and out of Xiaoxiang Pavilion for two consecutive days. made him a little disappointed, mistakenly thinking that he was just a fame and reputation fisherman.
Xu Jianping was not annoyed after hearing this, walked forward, picked up the wooden box on the ground, and patted the dust on it, "This case is very complicated, let me talk about it slowly......"
After that, Xu Jianping told Bai Qiuxue everything he had investigated in recent days, and handed him the map in his hand to check it.
After Bai Qiuxue heard this, Fang Zhiqi misunderstood Xu Jianping, and he was not pretentious, and gestured with both hands: "Brother Xu Gaoyi, Bai just made a move and wanted to educate you, so it seems that it is Bai Mou's no, Bai Mou hereby apologizes to you." ”
Xu Jianping was shocked, although this person in front of him was in a high position and his cultivation was extraordinary, but he acted frankly and openly, and this kind of posture of a corporal of Lixian could not be pretended.
"Lord Bai, I'm tormented."
Bai Qiuxue took out a few bottles and jars from the placket and threw them to Xu Jianping, "This is the pill that Bai Mou made up by himself on weekdays, there are words on it, the rivers and lakes are sinister, bring it, and use it in the future." After speaking, he jumped over the high wall, "hissed" twice outside the courtyard, and galloped away on a white horse.
Xu Jianping rubbed the knee that was scratched when he rolled over, dog, come and teach Lao Tzu a lesson and run away, what is this called.
In the wee hours of the morning.
"Knock knock knock" A sharp knock on the door sounded suddenly.
"Who came to the backyard of the yamen in the middle of the night? Could it be that Bai Qiuxue came back and wanted to sleep with me? ”
Xu Jianping felt sick in his heart, and walked over and pulled the door latch unhurriedly, and a figure fell directly on Xu Jianping's body.
"Money boss!"
I saw that Qian Zhutou was already unconscious at this time, and there were a lot of blood stains on his black suit, and he knew that he had fought with someone at a glance, Xu Jianping hurriedly helped Boss Qian back to the wing room and let him sit on the chair.
Xu Jianping touched Boss Qian's wrist with his hand, his breath was chaotic, his pulse was very short, looking at his whole body, there was no obvious wound, obviously the blood stains on his body were someone else's.
Xu Jianping returned to the bedside, took out the pile of bottles and cans from inside, took out a brown pill from it, and stuffed it into Qian Zhutou's mouth.
"I don't know if Bai Qiuxue has fooled herself, is this pill useful?"
Xu Jianping was also extremely nervous at the moment, he knew that he would encounter danger, so he shouldn't have let Qian Zhutou investigate at that time, looking at Qian Zhutou's pale face, there was a slight trace of blood on the corner of his mouth, and he couldn't help but hesitate a little in his heart.
After half a ring, Qian Zhutou woke up slowly, coughed a few times, and Xu Jianping brought a bowl of water when he saw this, "What happened?" ”
Qian Zhutou took the water and drank it, "Sure enough, as you thought, this case involves the smuggling of iron ore, and I followed the map to find a mining site, but it was heavily guarded, and I couldn't enter it during the day, so I waited until late at night to sneak in and saw a lot of carriages parked inside." I wanted to take a closer look, but I was discovered, and I escaped, so I didn't use martial arts so I was a little injured. Qian Zhutou rubbed his chest, obviously injured during the fight.
After hearing this, Xu Jianping secretly took chances, and with the ability of a fourth-grade martial artist to catch the head with money, there must be very few people in Jingzhou City who can hurt him. Qian Zhutou is really a wonderful person, although he seems to have developed limbs, his mind is not simple, and he is still very thoughtful in doing things, "It seems that Li Guyuan should have discovered that they were mining and transporting iron ore without permission, which led to murder." ”
"Well, I just don't know who is behind the scenes, tomorrow we will kill the door and see who is behind it." Qian Zhutou slammed down the table.
"No, tonight has already startled the snake, tomorrow they will definitely be on guard, with the current manpower of the Yamen, I am afraid that there will be no return!"
"So what now?"
Xu Jianping thought about it, and felt that this matter still depended on what the people above said, so he said lightly: "It's a big matter, report it to Lord Taishou tomorrow and then make a decision!" ”
South of the city, inside the garrison barracks.
"My lord, someone broke into Jiangling No. 3 Mine last night" A soldier with a gloomy face, dressed in Mingguang armor and a horizontal knife pinned to his waist, bowed his head and said, it was Fang Yuan, one of the people who pursued Qian Zhutou last night.
"Gangneung? Who is it? The deputy commander of the garrison in the south of the city asked.
"It's too dark to see my face clearly, but I'm sure it's not a martial artist, but like an Orion." Thinking of the strange person last night, Fang Yuan was also surprised, in the middle of the night, how could someone in the deep mountains and mountains suddenly appear.
"Don't take it lightly, these days are not peaceful."
"The small ones will be arranged to take turns on duty at night," Fang Yuan commanded.
"Go ahead."
"I hope I'm thinking too much!"
