The first red-clothed envoy of the Tianxia Pavilion was eating butter cakes, lamenting that the people's communication ability was indeed strong, and within one day, he had become the No. 1 in the Tianxia Pavilion.

"Where can I see the first red-clothed envoy of the World Pavilion?" Bai Yujing couldn't help but ask.

Xiao Er thought for a moment, "What are you doing seeing him?" That's an embroidered dresser, and if you don't see that you are unhappy, you will be arrested and interrogated in prison for ten days and half a month. ”

Bai Yujing said: "Such a powerful person, don't you go back and forth to Yuhang County if you don't see it?" ”

Xiao Er nodded and said: "Then you should go to the county lieutenant of Chu, and the red-clothed envoy will also go to the lieutenant of Chu when he comes, after all, only the red-clothed envoy can manage the matter of a hole in the sky." In the past few days, the county lieutenant of Chu has been very busy, and I heard that the prince of King Jing summoned him last night, and I don't know what he did, hey, look! That's not the county lieutenant of Chu! ”

Bai Yujing followed Xiao Er's fingers and saw that in the gate of the county government, the Qinglong Gate had been opened, and a person in official uniform walked out of it, this person looked like he was in his early twenties, his clothes were quite wrinkled, he walked in a hurry, his face was sallow, and he looked like he had not rested well for many days.

After settling the account, Bai Yujing followed directly.

Chu County's pace was not fast, his feet were swaying, it was enough to see that there was no kung fu on his body, he just walked a few steps, found a small restaurant and sat down, asked for two taels of wine, asked for a sauce board duck, and a bowl of tribute noodles to eat.

This Chu County Lieutenant had dark clouds on his forehead, sighing while eating, the sauce plate duck was not fragrant, and the tribute powder was not powdered, he only cared about drinking, and drank too much back and forth, and he was depressed and self-pitying, and he supported his forehead with one hand, as if he was going to lose this hand, he could be planted in the bowl one by one.

Bai Yujing looked at the county lieutenant of Chu as if he was going to die, and he couldn't bear it, knowing that he was busy with the affairs of the past few days, and he was afraid that the pressure on him would be even greater, so he directly stepped forward and sat in the position in front of him, and comforted: "You want to die?" ”

The county lieutenant of Chu has been drunk with chaos for the past few days, and he has been exhausted for a long time, and after drinking a few sips of wine at this time, he was even more drunk, and his heart was like ashes, looking at Bai Yujing, his eyes were red directly, and he cried loudly.

Bai Yujing almost laughed out loud, but he hurriedly held back his breath and said secretly: "Childe, why are you so worried?" Why don't you say it and let me open it...... Enlighten and enlighten you. ”

The county lieutenant of Chu was full of snot bubbles but didn't know it, he wiped his face with his sleeve indiscriminately, sighed and said, "I can't live!" ”

Burst......

I almost couldn't hold back.

Fortunately, the county lieutenant of Chu didn't realize it, Bai Yujing hurriedly used a cough to relieve the embarrassment, and coughed several times in a row before pretending to ask, "Is it a gambling debt?" Or did the daughter-in-law run away with someone? ”

Speaking is skillful, Bai Yujing also learned from Pei Santian, the prefect of Jingzhou, if you want to ask something, you have to start with emotions, ask some irrelevant questions to confuse the other party, and finally take two steps and three steps to get the essentials.

The county lieutenant of Chu suddenly cried louder again, and his face, which looked white, was even more pitiful, and he said in a trembling voice: "Not only is I in debt, but the woman in the marriage contract also ran away with someone, and the dog I raised also ate something by mistake and died, and the former ...... Woo woo, there was a murder in Yuhang County a few days ago, and now a person has to scold me when he sees me, and he came from the capital to take a three-hour carriage to scold me, I ...... I can't live anymore. ”

Bai Yujing's whole body was shaking, but fortunately he grabbed it on his face with his hand and didn't show a smile, and the county lieutenant of Chu lowered his head and repented, which didn't cause embarrassment, but he still couldn't help laughing.

He's really miserable.

Bai Yujing took more than thirty deep breaths before calming down, and forcibly cried with a sad face: "What does the murder have to do with you?" ”

The county lieutenant of Chu lowered his head and slammed his fist on the table, "I am the county lieutenant of Yuhang County, and I am in charge of the arrest of thefts, and the murder naturally has something to do with me, but ...... But this murder is clearly not under my control! ”

He complained: "Tell me, how can I, a mortal, manage the affairs of cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods?" So I reported, fortunately the county order was very good to me, help me participate, but the criminal department said that something could not come, Dali Temple said that the official business was busy and had no time to travel, and finally divided into embroidery clothes according to the responsibilities, but it has been five days, I got the news today, the purple envoy sent to Mobei to find the princess what pear blossom three-point civet went! Only one red-clothed envoy was sent to me. ”

If you say that, I'll run away!

Bai Yujing threatened in his heart.

The county lieutenant of Chu continued: "The red-clothed envoy is enough, but who knows when he will come? Running back from Mobei, it will take ten days and half a month to say the least, and when people catch a civet cat, won't they want to go to Kyoto to invite merit? It's going to take another ten days and half a month, and when I think of coming to Yuhang County, I guess I've already been killed by monsters! ”

Monster?

And that makes sense.

If it is an ordinary murder case, the Criminal Department and Dali Temple naturally can't shirk it, let alone the head of the embroidered cloth envoy, only those cases that mortals can't solve can be in the hands of these martial cultivators or Taoist cultivators.

However, Bai Yujing didn't understand a little, how could Yuhang County, where the Shaoyang Dynasty was so strong, not as good as Fenyang City? Could it be that youkai also know how to run to crowded places? Or is it because there are more people and more grievances, and there are more ghosts who die in vain?

Who knows this?

Bai Yujing has highlighted a bold since he was a child, and there are a lot of monsters who fight with him, and his rich experience in life is the experience of fighting monsters, in contrast, now Bai Yujing wants to deal with monsters more than he wants to deal with people.

He asked, "Youkai?" Are there monsters in this world? ”

County Lieutenant Chu raised his head and looked at him suddenly, as if he saw a monster, "Big brother, you have a sword on your left and a knife on your right, you tell me you haven't seen a demon?" ”

Bai Yujing was secretly happy in his heart, but he still had a newborn calf on his face and said with the momentum of a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers: "I have walked the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, and I have never seen a demon with a sword or a sword, where is the demon?" Take me to see it! ”

The county lieutenant of Chu said with his mouth half open: "Have you ever been out of your village in the past ten years?" ”

Bai Yujing was shocked: "What words! Of course I've been out, I've come by myself all the way from north to south, how can this be true, you take me quickly, I can't wait for a moment longer! ”

The lieutenant of Chu County sighed, at this time he was quite helpless in his heart, he was an official elected by the clan, but the distance between Yuhang County and his southwest clan was too far, and the officials in the court did not know much, so he couldn't make a name for himself here.

At the moment, there is no one available in his hands, there are no friends around, and the case is urging the case to be solved quickly, and the embroidered clothes are far away. The name of the county lieutenant sounded beautiful, but now he was the only one who knew how pitiful he was, so he raised his head, and said as a dead horse doctor: "Let's go!" I'll show you what a demon is today! ”

It doesn't matter if he is a demon or not, Bai Yujing is here to investigate the case, so he naturally wants to devote himself to the case, in this case, it doesn't matter what his identity is or what he does.

This is also a good opportunity to learn about Shaoyang officialdom.

After the two of them finished eating, they walked out of the restaurant, and the county lieutenant of Chu touched his wine jug and complained: "Shaoxia, what is your name?" ”

Bai Yujing said truthfully: "Bai Yujing, may I ask your lordship's surname?" ”

The county lieutenant of Chu said: "The surname is Chu, don't be an adult, I'm annoyed when I hear the word adult now, you can just call me Chu Xiuran." ”

Bai Yujing nodded, "Okay, Lord Chu." ”

Chu Xiuran said: "Don't call me Lord Chu!" ”

Bai Yujing thought for a while and said, "Yes, Lieutenant Chu." ”

Chu Xiuran held his forehead, "That's it, it's up to you, I'll tell you first, if you see something messy, don't come to me to know, right?" ”

Bai Yujing was a little excited and asked, "Where are we going?" ”

Chu Xiuran said: "This case is quite special, in order to facilitate the handover with the embroidered envoy, we put the corpses in the courtyard behind the county party." ”

Bai Yujing stretched out his hand and said, "Lead the way, Lord County Lieutenant." ”

The county party is behind the county office, it is a separate courtyard, and it is the place where Chu Xiuran hears, investigates, and works on weekdays, and he rarely comes back recently, for a very simple reason.

The county party is haunted.

Chu Xiuran also muttered in his heart: "Hey, now I don't have much hope, if I can talk about a day's leisure, just talk about a day's leisure, who knows if this kid has any ability?" Anyway, if there are more lice, there is no itching, if there are more debts, there are no worries, and no county lieutenant will think that there are many corpses at home, if he dies, he will die, and he can wait until the embroidery messenger comes. ”

Chu Xiuran was much more relaxed, and prayed secretly: "Heavenly Spirit, Earth Spirit, don't keep up with me, if you ghost masters like this kid, take him away." ”

The two of them arrived at the backyard of the county party, there were three big mansions here, Chu Xiuran stretched out his finger and pointed over, "There are a lot of corpses in these three mansions, and the one opposite is specially separated by me, find someone to put the corpses related to this case there, you just go and see it." ”

Bai Yujing asked, "What about the work?" ”

Chu Xiuran said: "There is no silver in the house, I didn't invite it." ”

Bai Yujing said: "Huh? So you don't do autopsies on weekdays? ”

Chu Xiuran rubbed his chest and said, "I'll test it myself." ”

Bai Yujing was stunned and said, "Yo, I can't see that you are still so powerful." ”

Chu Xiuran reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said, "That is, I have learned a little medical skills, and this will not save a sum of money." Okay, it's not too early now, you take advantage of the heavy yang qi at noon, hurry in. ”

Bai Yujing said: "What did you ask me to do?" ”

Chu Xiuran was stunned, "Aren't you here to catch monsters?" ”

Bai Yujing pointed to the big village and said, "You won't go in with me?" ”

Chu Xiuran hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I won't go in again, when I did my autopsy yesterday afternoon, that buddy sat up." ”

Bai Yujing exclaimed: "There is still such a thing? Come on, come on, let's go in together! ”

Chu Xiuran immediately grabbed the door frame on the side and shouted: "If you want to go, you can go, catch the monster and show me later, if you don't go, let's drink and go, can it be done?" ”

Bai Yujing glanced at him helplessly, "Then don't go too far." ”

Chu Xiuran sighed: "This is my home, where can I go?" Go ahead, and I'll be watching you at this door. ”

Bai Yujing smiled happily and strode towards the mansion in the middle.
