At the foot of Jinsu Mountain, groups of forbidden troops were heavily armed and carried torches through the bazaar. The streets have long been under martial law, with one post at ten paces and one sentry at five steps, refusing horses and blocking the streets, as if facing a great enemy. Qin Chong and the others came to the entrance of the town, but when they saw such a scene, their hearts suddenly chuckled.

Lang Zongyu is used to being a bandit, and he is most afraid of seeing officers and soldiers. But Qin Chong was different, he vaguely guessed that the officers and soldiers might have something to do with the Five Elements Treasure.

After a moment of silence, Qin Zhong dismounted and walked to the side of the road. With such martial law, you will definitely not be able to enter on horseback. Even if you are walking, I am afraid that you will have to ask for half a day. Now, Qin Chong's identity certificates are all in the baggage of the inn. And Lang Zongyu is a bandit, and he can't stand up to interrogation.

"Let's rest here first, and when it's later, let's get inside." Qin Chong sat on the ground with his butt and stretched out his legs.

"Okay." Lang Zongyu listened to Qin Chong for everything, and sat on the ground when he heard the words. I got a good horse today, and I was patronizing and galloping, and now when I rested, I felt that my buttocks and both sides of my thighs were hot and painful.

"I didn't talk when I came back today, but I didn't see each other?" Qin Chong said chatteringly.

"Hmm." Lang Zongyu nodded sullenly.

"I really didn't see it?" Qin Zhong was really curious about this Xiuqin.

"I glanced at it from afar, and her father and mother didn't want to see me." Lang Zongyu lowered his head, not very interested.

"How did you two meet?"

"When my father and mother were alive, they set a family affair for me."

"Huh? Engaged? Qin Zhong really didn't expect that the two of them were engaged.

"After an accident at home two years ago, I was wanted by the government, and her family didn't recognize me." When Lang Zongyu said this, his expression was depressed.

"What about sister-in-law? How does she treat you? Qin Chong changed his words and called him sister-in-law, which was a sign of respect for Lang Zongyu. Lang Zongyu was eighteen, while Qin Chong was only fifteen. On the other hand, when he learned that Xiuqin and Lang Zongyu had a marriage contract, he naturally couldn't call Xiuqin at will.

"Xiuqin said that even if my father and mother don't recognize me, she will recognize me." Lang Zongyu grinned.

"Her father and mother dislike you for falling into the grass?"

"Yes?" Lang Zongyu looked at the night sky and sighed faintly, "I am also afraid of the power of the thief's family." ”

Lang Zongyu's enemy surnamed Zhang, is a big household in Fuping County, with thousands of acres of fertile land and countless shops, and has the title of Zhang Bancheng. The Zhang family has a huge fortune, but only one person is not prosperous. And the gentleman who was killed by Lang Zongyu was Zhang Hanyu, the only seedling of the third generation of the Zhang family.

Zhang Hanyu has been pampered since she was a child, and she wants the stars to give the moon, which is simply spoiled to the sky. Because of this, Zhang Hanyu has developed a cross-cutting and domineering temperament, partial and lustful, but any woman with a little beauty, as long as he meets her, she will be ravaged after all.

No matter how big the matter is, the family can settle it for him, and he is lawless and domineering.

But in Longquan Village, Su Wan finally met the desperate Lang Zongyu. Lang Zongyu saw his sister throw himself into the cliff, he was furious, and chased and killed him for dozens of miles, and at the gate of Fuping County, he killed Zhang Hanyu with a fist. And Lang Zongyu also paid a heavy price for this.

He has a grudge against the Zhang family, and he does not share the sky. And the Zhang family will definitely not let Lang Zongyu go.

Speaking of this, Qin Chong was a little puzzled. No matter how rich the Zhang family is, it is just a rich man, how can he influence the government?

Of course, having money can make the ghost grind, and it is not excluded that the Zhang family spent a lot of money to buy off the officials who handled the case. But there is one point, the officials of today's era all boast of being doctors and doctors, especially businessmen. There are many officials who collect money and do nothing.

"Does the Zhang family still have a background?" Qin Zhong asked tentatively.

"Yes, the background is very large." Lang Zongyu let out a long sigh and said slowly. When it came to the background of the Zhang family, Lang Zongyu only felt weak.

"Oh? What is the background? Qin Zhong asked.

"I heard that someone in the Zhang family is an official in the Yamen." Lang Zongyu said.

"Mention the punishment yamen?" Even Qin Chong, hearing this, couldn't help but gasp.

The Criminal and Prison Division, together with the Pacification Division, the Changping Division, and the Transshipment Division, are collectively known as the Four Supervision Divisions. The pacification envoy is commonly known as the Shuai Division, the Changping Division is commonly known as the Cang Division, and the Transshipment Envoy Division is commonly known as the Cao Division. The Department of Prisons and Prisons, commonly known as the Constitutional Division, is in charge of judicial prisons and supervises finances.

Mention the chief officer of the Criminal Prison Division, the official name of the criminal prison business, and the dignified three-grade member of the court.

He also has a supervisory power in his hands, which is most feared by local officials. Supervise local officials, and impeachment goes straight to the center.

Saying this, Qin Chong suddenly became stunned. Someone in the Zhang family is an official in the Yamen, how dare the local officials not give face? Even if it is a petty official in the yamen, they dare not offend, so they can only be cautious. The Zhang family wants to kill people to vent their anger, and the government will only turn a blind eye.

"Don't be discouraged." Qin Zhong patted Lang Zongyu's shoulder vigorously and said, "Keep this revenge in your heart first, and one day let him pay for it with blood." ”

"Hmm." Lang Zongyu raised his head and looked at Qin Chong and nodded fiercely.

As the two said this, time passed little by little, and the night deepened and deepened. Looking up at the sky, it is estimated that it is already around the time. Qin Zhong stood up, put his bow and arrows on his back, and walked to the town on foot. He wanted to reach into the inn and retrieve the baggage. Lang Zongyu stayed here and looked after the horses.

In the streets, the military patrols are still there, but they are clearly coping with errands. Qin Zhong took advantage of the shadow on the side of the road to avoid the soldiers lightly, and quickly climbed over the wall into the inn. It was pitch black in the inn, and there was not the slightest movement. I'm afraid that the guests who stayed at the hotel have already gone completely.

After listening for a moment and making sure that it was safe, Qin Zhong swooped down and ran towards the stable. His white horse chased the wind and stayed in this inn, and he didn't know how? Thinking in his heart, he quickly approached the stable, and suddenly heard a loud nose, and Qin Chong's heart couldn't help but relax.

"Chasing the wind." Qin Chong was overjoyed, and strode into the stable with a light call. The stable is very large, but at this moment, there is only one horse chasing the wind, hearing Qin Chong's call, the white horse fluttered and stood up from the ground, snorted and approached, and the horse's head arched Qin Chong very intimately.

Raising his hand to pat the horse's head, Qin Zhong untied the reins, slowly pulled Chasing Wind out of the stable, and came to the courtyard. He also had to get his luggage back, his identity, his clothes, gold and silver, all in the baggage. The clothes on his body were about to be torn into strips of cloth. If you don't change it, it's really called Hanako.

At that moment, the hall was lit up. In a moment, the door opened, and the shopkeeper poked his head out. The sound of horses' hooves woke up the shopkeeper, and he came out to check it, and suddenly saw a man and a horse in the yard, and he was startled.

"You? You? Who are you? ”

"Don't be afraid, the shopkeeper is back." Qin Zhong raised his voice and said.

The shopkeeper held the oil lamp and looked at it for a long time, but he still recognized Qin Zhong by the white horse. The key is the White Horse Divine Horse, and if you have seen it once, you must have a deep memory. In the past two days, the shopkeeper was worried about himself, and he checked the white horse every day, so he quickly remembered Qin Chong.

"Oh, it's really Master Qin, how did you become like this?"

"Something happened, and I have to thank the shopkeeper for taking care of the wind for me."

"It should be, it should be." The shopkeeper said, turned around and pushed the door open, and invited Qin Zhong into the house.

"What happened these two days? Why are the streets full of soldiers? Qin Zhong asked with doubts in his heart.

"Alas, it's not those people who are making trouble." When the shopkeeper talked about this, he was also complaining. As soon as the officers and soldiers came, the guests of the inn were frightened and hurriedly checked out and left, and no one wanted to cause trouble. It's a good thing, the inn is deserted, only the shopkeeper and Xiao Er are left.

According to what the shopkeeper said, Qin Chong slowly sorted out some clues. That night, Qin Chong fell off a cliff to save Yunni, but the fight at that time was not over. It wasn't until noon on the second day, when a group of forbidden troops came to the town, that they went up the hill to stop the fight.

Many people from the rivers and lakes left one after another, and followed by the forbidden army from the mountain, carrying down large and small iron lumps. The big ones are the size of a cow's head, and the small ones are the size of a watermelon. More than a dozen people lifted a piece, looking at the heavy abnormality. For this reason, many people were injured along the way.

"Iron bumps?" Qin Chong couldn't think of what it was, but the Eight Achievements were the Five Elements Treasure.

"Yes, the iron bump is also strange, and the sun shines brightly, and it shines golden." The shopkeeper reminisced about what he had seen that day.

"This?" Qin Zhongzhong jumped, how did it sound like his double hammer?

"Some people say it's all gold that fell from the sky." The shopkeeper said that the god was mysterious and secret, and his eyes were full of envy.

"Can you see a Taoist priest?" Qin Chong didn't care about the iron pimple, he just wanted to inquire about Yunni's news.

"Daoist? Yes. Both the living and the dead. "When the shopkeeper talks about Taoist priests, he is not very respectful, and he is quite joking.

"I heard that a lot of people died?" Qin Zhong asked tentatively.

"Isn't it?" The shopkeeper glared at him and said, "Twenty or thirty corpses alone will be brought down." ”

"So much?" Qin Chong was also taken aback.

"I heard that a big man died, no, the officers and soldiers are here for him."

"Big shots? What big shots? Qin Zhong asked in surprise.

"I don't know about this, I heard that I came from the capital, but I died in Jinsu Mountain."

As soon as he heard that he was coming from the capital, Qin Chong stood up suddenly, and his heart was almost out of rhythm. Yunni and Qingyun Sanren, aren't they from the capital? Could it be that something happened to them? Qin Chongden was confused, and grabbed the shopkeeper's arm.

"Is it a man or a woman who dies?" Qin Chong didn't notice it, his tone changed, and his hands were unconsciously exerting force.

"Ahh The shopkeeper was in pain and screamed miserably.

Qin Chong was suddenly shocked, and hurriedly let go, and kept saying sorry. The shopkeeper also saw that Qin Zhong was not proper, but he was used to running an inn, and he was used to coming and going from the south to the north, and he was already old in the rivers and lakes, and he was well versed in the truth that disaster came from his mouth, so he shook his head and didn't ask much.

"The big man who died, I heard that it was a man, what kind of big housekeeper did he say?" The shopkeeper is not very confident, after all, he has heard it, and he can't do it accurately. "Those soldiers on the street are looking for the murderer." As he spoke, the shopkeeper glanced at Qin Chong.

Qin Zhong noticed that the shopkeeper's eyes were wandering, and he was afraid that he was suspicious of himself.

Silent at the moment, he asked, "My luggage, are you still there?" ”

"Huh? In, in, of course all in, one will not be less. The shopkeeper immediately came back to his senses and patted his chest to reassure.

"Very good, I picked up my luggage and left tonight." Qin Zhong said, got up and went up to the second floor.

"Leaving tonight? Why not rest for the night and leave tomorrow at dawn? ”

"No, there are some urgent matters that need to be dealt with."

When I entered the room, I lit the oil lamp and looked around carefully, but I didn't find any traces of it. The probe reached into the baggage and took out a piece of paperwork, which was his identification, if he lost it, the road would be troublesome. As for the other gold and silver objects, he did not care much.

He took out a silver ingot, handed it to the shopkeeper behind him, and said, "This is the store money." ”

"Too much, too much, no need for so much." The shopkeeper held the silver and said in a loud voice.

"I'm not here for the past two days, the white horse has taken good care of it, this is a little heart, take it."

"Hehe, thank you, thank you." The shopkeeper suddenly smiled and sent Qin Zhong downstairs. When he arrived downstairs, the shopkeeper stopped and did not open the gate of the front yard, but waved at Qin Zhong and walked towards the backyard. "There's a small door in the backyard, and it's secluded outside."

"Thank you, shopkeeper." Qin recognised his feelings and saluted with his fists. Now that he is riding a horse, he will inevitably alarm the forbidden army. Being able to avoid interrogation naturally saves a lot of trouble.

"Let's go." The shopkeeper's open door can only allow the white horse to pass.

Outside the backyard, there was a field, and the crops half a man high rose and fell in the wind, like ocean waves. Along the wheat field, there is a four- or five-foot path, which zigzags and turns into the distance. The forbidden troops are all on the front street, but there is no one to be seen here.

After leading the horse for a while, feeling out of the town, Qin Chong got on the horse and shook the reins gently. Chasing the wind raised his head violently, and jumped out like lightning. Above the silent field, it was like a white streamer, gently cutting through the dark night.
