With a dazzling white light coming, when Lin Fan opened his eyes again, he found that the surrounding scene had changed drastically.

At this moment, I was in a peach orchard, surrounded by peach trees that could not be seen at a glance, and as the breeze blew, it seemed that pink rain was falling in the sky.

There is a small village in the peach orchard, some small thatched huts are still rising smoke, Lin Fan is in front of a gurgling river, clear to the bottom swimming fish in the water, there is a small bridge on the water surface, leading to the pavilion opposite, there is a plaque directly above the pavilion, three big characters are written in a sprinkled manner: peach blossom source.

Where is this?

Lin Fan was a little at a loss, he was still in the bustling and noisy city in the last second, running to avoid the heavy rain, a deafening thunder sounded, he was so frightened that he closed his eyes, and then he opened it to this strange place, and he was not struck by thunder!

In the face of this sudden situation, Lin Fan didn't have much fear, but more excitement than shock... And faint anticipation, is this the legendary crossing? There was no psychological preparation at all, Lin Fan was stunned for a long time, checked the materials on his body, except for his mobile phone and a few hundred-yuan bills, plus a bunch of keys, there was nothing.

He whispered self-deprecatingly, "Is it really a life in another world from scratch?" With the mentality that what has come is safe, Lin Fan decided to walk around first to figure out what kind of place this is.

Lin Fan walked into a smoking house, and after entering the courtyard, he saw a kind old woman, Lin Fan asked politely: "Auntie, how to get to Tao Yuanming's house?" ”

The old woman looked Lin Fan up and down, and asked strangely, "Child, are you a foreigner?" There is no surname Tao in our village. ”

Lin Fan said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, I saw the plaque of the pavilion that said Peach Blossom Spring, and I subconsciously thought of Tao Yuanming, auntie, I came here from a long way away, and I want to find a place to rest, please ask, is there a town nearby?" ”

The old woman nodded clearly and explained: "You said that the plaque is a dignitary in the capital, passing by our village, I think we have a good view, and wrote down the three words of Peach Blossom Spring, which was later carved out by the village chief and found a craftsman, made a plaque and hung up, since then our village has been renamed Peach Blossom Village, as for the person with the inscription, whether it is called Tao Yuanming, I have no way of knowing." If you want to go to the town, there is a small road at the entrance of our village, and you can walk along the path for twenty miles, and you can reach Jinyang City. ”

Lin Fan thanked the old woman, turned around and walked towards the entrance of the village, when he passed by the pavilion, he was seen by an old man who was enjoying the shade, and the old man asked Lin Fan: "Who are you looking for, stranger?" ”

Lin Fan returned as he walked: "Oh, I'm looking for Ma Dongmei." ”

"Ma What's the Plum?" The old man asked uncertainly.

"Uncle, rest for you!" Lin Fan waved his hand perfunctorily and quickened his pace.

Lin Fan shuttled in the peach blossom forest for a long time, and the moment he left the peach forest, the world suddenly opened up, and then at the entrance of the village, along a muddy sheep intestine path, walked for nearly three hours, and the towering city wall suddenly appeared in front of him.

The city wall is scarred, there are cracks everywhere, the quaint breath comes to the face, go around to the city gate, only to see the gate open, several officers and soldiers are organizing the crowd to go in and out, carrying the burden and hurrying, driving the ox cart to deliver goods, driving the donkey to pull the goods, and the domestic servants carrying the small sedan chair, coming and going endlessly, the city tower above the city gate is carved with two big characters, Jinyang.

Lin Fan consciously joined the queue to enter the city, squatting down in the line to breathe, as a 20-year-old college student, Lin Fan has never walked such a long way, at this time the time is close to noon, the hot day is at the head, Lin Fan only feels thirsty, thinking in his heart that he will enter the city for a while, how to take root and settle down.

After queuing for more than 20 minutes, it was finally Lin Fan's turn to enter the city, and he was just about to rush in, but was stopped by the guards to ask for the city entry tax, Lin Fan subconsciously took out a few hundred-yuan bills and handed them over, asking the guards to let them go.

But I saw that after the guard took the money, he shook it in front of his eyes, threw it in his face and scolded: "What the hell draw a talisman!" Where did you come from, looking at your strange clothes, you must not be a good person, you don't have the money to dodge quickly, otherwise you will be sent to prison now! As he spoke, he pushed Lin Fan aside.

Lin Fan timidly stepped aside, his heart was cold, he didn't expect to ask for money to enter the city gate, his short-haired T-shirt, with sneakers and jeans, looked nondescript in the eyes of outsiders, and he was penniless for fear that he would live on the streets, no, the city gate couldn't get into the streets?

It's impossible.,Since I have the chance to cross.,Then I'm supposed to be the protagonist.,Reduced to a beggar at the beginning.,Sleeping in the wilderness and dying of hunger.,It's too.,Impossible.,There's no endless road.,There must be some way out to break the game.。

Those who are unfamiliar with the place here can't get into trouble, so they can only go up first and think of a way. Lin Fan came to the corner of the city wall, and after thinking for a long time, he still had no clue, and when he was at a loss, he suddenly found that not far away, a young man was squatting on the ground with his head in his hands, looking distressed.

"Big brother, do you have any troubles? Why don't you talk to me, maybe I can help you" Lin Fan walked in front of the man and leaned over slightly to explore.

When the man heard the voice, he glanced up at Lin Fan, got up and arched his hand and said with a wry smile: "Brother is in Chengpu, I can't hide it, the family teacher asked me to assist Ling Yan in catching the head and investigating the case, who knew that he temporarily received a task to go to Suzhou, let me stay and continue to investigate, but there was no progress for three whole days, I really don't know how to start, alas...... I'm stupid, I can't do it reluctantly, I don't know anything about investigating the case, but if it goes on like this, I'm afraid it's not easy to make a difference, if you get the help of the righteous, it's really good to have three lives, I don't know what to call my brother? ”

Lin Fan was ecstatic in his heart, and appeared! NPCs that advance the plot have appeared! Lin Fan suppressed the joy in his heart, thought about it for a while, and learned to answer: "Junior brother Lin Fan, let's do it, Brother Cheng, I came from outside the territory, and I met a thief here and lost my money...... It's easy for me to take me into the city, help me change into a less weird outfit, and then fund me with some silver taels, and I'll help you find out the case within a day, okay? ”

"It's easy to say, let's go!" Cheng Pu was overjoyed, he was really dozing with a pillow, he picked up the Qi Mei stick on the ground, and saw that Lin Fan didn't seem to be a practitioner, and he was not afraid that he would lie to himself, if everything was done, if he dared to lie to himself, then he would be killed directly with a stick, thinking that he would lead Lin Fan into the city.

At this time, Lin Fan looked at him carefully, only to see that he was dressed in a chivalrous shirt, holding a pair of eyebrow sticks and boots, thinking that he was not a bad money master, this time with him to lead the way, it should be stable to enter the city.

After entering the city, Cheng Pu took Lin Fan to Buzhuang first to change his body, and then the two came to the mansion, as soon as they entered the door, Lin Fan felt that a solemn breath came to his face, Lin Fan felt a little nervous, and followed Cheng Pu tightly and did not dare to move.

A servant saw Cheng Pu, obviously acquaintance, so he walked over and led the two to the corner, and asked politely, "Cheng Daxia has a clue?" ”

"Brother, you look down on me, I don't know anything about investigating the case, you briefly tell my friend about the situation, and he will definitely be able to help you close the case." As he spoke, he slapped Lin Fan on the back and pushed him out.

Lin Fan met the eyes of the official and asked stubbornly: "The younger brother is a friend of Brother Cheng, and he has a lot of experience in investigating cases, so please tell me about it." ”

It seems that Cheng Pu still has some fame, and when the official learned that Lin Fan was his friend, he didn't dare to slack off, and said: "That's right, recently there is a murderous maniac who specializes in killing young girls at night and cutting off their heads. The murderer's methods are cruel, and he singles out a single woman to attack, and the victim's head is in a different place, but no other external injuries are seen. There is a woman who was almost killed by a knife yesterday, and the woman is still in shock, so we have sent people to guard the area around her house in order to prevent the murderer from killing the witness. ”

"Now that the gates of the city are wide open, wouldn't the murderer have already run away?" Lin Fan asked in surprise.

"That's not going to happen, you need a guide to get out of the city, if you need to go out of the city, you need to get our report first, and then you can get out of the city only after getting the approval of the master, without the seal of the prefect, no one can go out." The city is now equivalent to a state where people are allowed to enter but not allowed to leave, and only those who have gotten rid of suspicion can come and apply for road guidance, so the murderer should not be able to get out, and the murderer commits crimes every now and then, obviously living in the city at home. The official explained.

"Is it true that no one is exempt? Can't go in and out of the city gates at will? Lin Fan asked with some disbelief, is the legal system here so strict?

Under Lin Fan's questioning gaze, the official simply stopped holding it, looked left and right and saw that there was no one around, so he relaxed, and said with a smile: "Look at the hero, you are asking, the rich and powerful old men in the city are definitely not under the jurisdiction, not to mention those adults, it is impossible to do this kind of pickled thing, even if it is really done, it will not be our turn to care, I am afraid that it will be left behind a substitute for the death of a long time ago, how can it be that the city is full of storms and rains, and everyone is in danger."

"So how did you find out? It's been so long, don't you have any clues? Why do we want reckless people to meddle in such a thing? Lin Fan asked puzzled.

"Huh?" The official was speechless when asked, and looked at Lin Fan inexplicably, not knowing what to say for a while, and turned to look at Cheng Pu speechlessly, as if asking where did this come from.
