Chapter 160: Gold Medal for Exemption, Thanksgiving from the Capital

Yan Ming happened to walk in from the outside, and when he saw Bai Zhantang's aggrieved expression, he smiled.

"Why did he harass you?"

"This guy sits here staring at the dipping candy every day, and his eyes are so strange, it affects our business!"

Tong Xiangyu walked over and said.

It seems that she has communicated with Bai Zhantang in private and knows the grievances between them.

Speaking of which, this matter has something to do with Tong Xiangyu, Bai Zhantang, who had just debuted back then, was chased by several heads of the Ling family, and the hostage he took was Tong Xiangyu!

At that time, Bai Zhantang also desperately disregarded his own safety and blocked the flying hidden weapon for Tong Xiangyu, so that there were still scars on his hands.

It's just that I didn't expect them to have this follow-up fate at the time.

Sure enough, it's fate, it's wonderful.

Tong Xiangyu had heard Bai Zhantang talk about the ins and outs of the matter in private before, and naturally he didn't like Ling Tengyun.

As soon as he came, he was so frightened that Bai Zhantang was going to roll up and run away again, and it was strange that Tong Xiangyu could give him a good face.

"Is there such a thing? Ling catches the head? ”

Yan Ming walked in from outside with a knife and asked with a chuckle.

"I just want to talk to this big brother Bai about something and talk about the friendship of the year."

Ling Tengyun squinted, and his gaze never moved away from Bai Zhantang.

In the last scuffle, after Ling Tengyun knew the identity of Bai Zhantang's thief, the various scenes at the beginning could not be suppressed in front of him, which was the demon that had plagued him for many years.

Ling Tengyun had fantasized countless times that if the thief saint appeared in front of him, he must take it down without saying a word and put an end to this demon in his heart.

However, in the face of this situation, Ling Tengyun was a little overwhelmed, but he was unwilling to give up the saint and go away, and he had been staring at Bai Zhantang these days.

On the one hand, Ling Tengyun was not sure whether his strength could beat the other party, on the other hand, Bai Zhantang had been in the Seven Heroes Town, and Ling Tengyun was not easy to do to him.

It just so happened that I didn't think it through in my heart, so I kept being deadlocked.

In fact, Ling Tengyun himself didn't know that the reason why he was obsessed with this matter was not because of stealing the saint, but because of the guilt and self-blame that he didn't dare to face.

Back then, he was young and frivolous, and he was high-spirited, and in the process of chasing the thief, he directly fired a hidden weapon and almost shot the hostage, and only realized that it was wrong when the hidden weapon got out.

At the critical moment, the thief was injured and took the hidden weapon.

In order to arrest thieves, he did not hesitate to hurt the hostages, but the other party was obviously a notorious thief, but he sacrificed his life to save people, which was quite righteous.

This made Ling Tengyun feel guilty all the time, but he was unwilling to face it ideologically, so he pushed everything to the grudge against the thief saint, and subconsciously thought that as long as the thief saint was solved, the heart knot would cease to exist.

Ling Tengyun had never talked about these thoughts to anyone, but Yan Ming was familiar with the plot, and of course he knew it well.

Looking at Ling Tengyun's tangled and twisted expression, Yan Ming sat at the table.

"Lao Bai, come and sit too, I have something to tell you." Yan Ming patted the side.

Bai Zhantang's face was full of disgust, and he was reluctant to do so in his heart, he wanted to refuse Ling Tengyun as far as he could, but looking at Yan Ming's eyes, he still sat over reluctantly.

Ling Tengyun stared at Bai Zhantang, the hand holding the scabbard couldn't help but tighten a little, and Bai Zhantang was also slightly nervous.

Especially when he has always been timid, when facing the fast catcher, his heart always beats faster unconsciously.

A few days ago, when Guo Juxia and Zhuge Shenhou came to Qixia Town, they were so frightened that Bai Zhantang didn't dare to show up, and hid in the backyard of Tongfu Inn for a long time.

"Don't be nervous, that's good for you."

Yan Ming comforted Bai Zhantang, and then looked at Ling Tengyun.

"Ling Zhutou, you also know that this person in front of you is the famous thief saint!"

"Hmm."

Ling Tengyun nodded, but then said.

"It seems that Yan Zhutou has known about this for a long time?"

"Not bad." Yan Ming readily admitted.

Ling Tengyun was even more puzzled: "In that case, why didn't Yan Zhutou take it down earlier?" The thief is a wanted criminal by the imperial court for many years! ”

"I'm not busy, Ling Zhutou only knows one thing, but I don't know the other."

As he spoke, Yan Ming put one hand into his arms, as if he was pulling out something, and at the same time looked at Bai Zhantang, a little uneasy.

"What's that, Lao Bai, you are so mentally prepared, so many people are watching, don't be too out of shape."

"Huh?"

Bai Zhantang was confused by Yan Ming, and his face was full of question marks.

Tong Xiangyu next to him also came over curiously.

"Shopkeeper Tong, you hold on to Brother Bai, don't let him have problems."

Yan Ming still didn't feel at ease and explained a few words, and then slowly took out something from his arms.

It was a yellow-colored brand, not large, easy to hold in the palm of the hand, very exquisitely shaped, and there were some small characters engraved on it.

"Huh?"

Tong Xiangyu, Bai Zhantang, and Ling Tengyun were all curious about the guanzi sold by Yan Ming, and they all looked over.

"Exoneration Gold Medal?"

Bai Zhantang read out the four big characters on it word by word, with a puzzled expression on his face, and then looked at Yan Ming.

"It's ......"

"This is the gold medal of exoneration issued by Guo Juxia himself, for Brother Bai, in recognition of your recent contributions, with this gold medal of exoneration in hand, the sin of stealing the saint before will be written off, and from now on, Brother Bai, you will be able to walk in the sun."

Yan Ming was afraid that Bai Zhantang would be too excited, so he deliberately slowed down his tone and explained.

But Rao is like this, these words fell on Bai Zhantang's ears, and they also made him completely stunned.

The surprise came so suddenly that it even made him feel that none of this was real, as if in a dream.

He has forgotten everything around him, and only has that gold medal of exoneration in his eyes.

Choked his throat and wanted to make a move, but the muscles in his body were stiff, and even the most basic movements were deformed, one slipped out, almost slipped off the stool, and squatted on his ass.

Fortunately, there was Yan Ming's reminder just now, and Tong Xiangyu next to him quickly reached out to help him, so he didn't make a fool of himself.

But Bai Zhantang was still staring at the gold medal of exoneration, trembling and stretching out his hand, but he didn't dare to touch it.

"This, is this really mine?"

Bai Zhantang couldn't believe all this happening until this point.

Yan Ming stuffed the gold medal of exoneration into Bai Zhantang's hand.

"There is no need to question it, it is true, there is also a special approval from the Criminal Department and Guo Juxia."

As soon as the slightly weighty gold medal of exoneration arrived in his hand, Bai Zhantang immediately held the treasure and came to his face.

After carefully looking at it for a moment, the expression on Bai Zhantang's face changed from disbelief to ecstasy!

"Baby, my baby!"

Bai Zhantang jumped from the stool to a certain height, holding the gold medal of exoneration without caring about the image, and screamed vigorously.

It made everyone in the inn turn their heads to look here.

"Eating and drinking, everyone eating and drinking......"

Yan Ming and Tong Xiangyu greeted each other a few words, but when they turned around, Bai Zhantang was gone.

I could just hear his unbridled laughter, coming from the backyard, followed by going around to the front door, rushing in through the main entrance, and going back and forth in circles.

I don't know what he wants to do, but he's very excited anyway.

Good guy, although Yan Ming had been mentally prepared, he didn't expect Bai Zhantang to be so happy and crazy.

As soon as he turned around, he saw that Ling Tengyun was also full of incomprehension.

"For the things he did before, he deserves a gold medal of exoneration?"

Ling Tengyun asked incredulously.

His heart was even more confused, because with this gold medal of exoneration, the past of stealing the saint was written off, wouldn't he even lose his reason to arrest him?

Yan Ming nodded, but he was thinking in his heart, if it was just because Bai Zhantang had helped capture a few giants before, of course it would not be worth such a precious thing as the gold medal for exoneration.

In the final analysis, it is because of Bai Zhantang's old lady who sacrificed a lot and went undercover incognito for decades.

Of course, these secret Ling Tengyun are destined not to know.

In fact, this gold medal for exoneration has been decided a long time ago, and now it is handed over to Bai Zhantang, and it is just a process.

Whether it was Guo Juxia or the Sunflower Sect, they had long known that Bai Zhantang lived in seclusion in Seven Heroes Town, and if they wanted to trouble him, it would be easy.

When Guo Juxia and Zhuge Shenhou arrived in Qixia Town before, they were actually able to bring this gold medal of exoneration together, but Guo Juxia finally passed this matter through Yan Ming's hands, which can be regarded as a favor to him.

"Dip sugar, don't run away, there are still guests here......"

Tong Xiangyu had never seen Bai Zhantang, who had always been steady, so out of shape, and wanted to stop him, but he never succeeded.

After running around the inn for many laps, Bai Zhantang stopped.

"Baby, I will always take you with me in the future, and I will never let you leave me!"

Bai Zhantang was holding the gold medal of exoneration very sensitively, sticking it to his face intoxicated, and he didn't care about Tong Xiangyu anymore.

Seeing that Bai Zhantang was a little inflated, Yan Ming's voice of reminder came from the side.

"Lao Bai, you calm down first and look at the small words next to you."

Bai Zhantang was stunned for a moment, and then followed Yan Ming's voice and looked over carefully.

Sure enough, next to the exoneration gold medal, there were also dense small letters, which indicated that only past crimes would be pardoned, and if the crime was serious in the future, the yamen would have the right to take it back at any time.

Only then did Bai Zhantang shudder and sobered up.

Just now he was holding this gold medal of exoneration in his hand, and he was really a little carried away, and even a bold idea popped up in his mind, he wanted to break into the yamen for a day trip, anyway, he could be exempted, it was better to play bigger.

Only now did he come to his senses, and his newly inflated emotions gradually returned to normal.

Bai Zhantang remembered this and hurriedly stepped forward to thank Yan Ming.

Then his eyes drifted to Ling Tengyun on the side.

After hesitating for a moment, Bai Zhantang said to Ling Tengyun.

"Ling Zhutou, in fact, you don't have to blame yourself for what happened back then, you are a good catcher, I believe that if you are in the same position as me, you will definitely make the same choice."

What Bai Zhantang said, others might not understand, but Ling Tengyun was stunned for a moment.

But he still couldn't let go of this knot, and snorted coldly, don't look over.

But now that Bai Zhantang has the gold medal of exoneration in his hand, he can't move the other party, and he feels extremely aggrieved in his heart.

"Ling Zhutou, when are you going to leave?"

Yan Ming turned around and asked.

"I don't plan to leave for the time being, Seven Heroes Town is a good place, I'm here because I feel different outside, Yan Zhutou, you are not the same as a few brothers in my family, so I want to stay here and learn a little more."

Ling Tengyun said after a slight hesitation.

This idea of his had existed before, and it felt like patrolling the streets of Seven Heroes Town was different from the rest of the world outside.

And he communicated this idea to his family, and the old man of the Ling family immediately agreed, and told him that he didn't have to come back if he had nothing to do, and that he was in Qixia Town with peace of mind.

Ling Tengyun was also very surprised that the old man was so refreshing.

In fact, Yan Ming's name, the old man of the Ling family has also been paying attention to him for a long time, and he is very interested in him.

Anyone can see that Yan Ming's future is limitless, so now Ling Tengyun has the opportunity to get closer to him, and of course he will support it.

Yan Ming was stunned for a moment, but then touched his chin.

According to the original plot, Ling Tengyun was originally the next head catcher of Seven Heroes Town.

It just so happens that there is a shortage of manpower in the town now, isn't this just a sleepy pillow?

After Yan Ming communicated with Ling Tengyun, he immediately made the other party's eyes become brighter and brighter......

Not long after, there was a newly appointed catcher in Seven Heroes Town, who learned Yan Ming and was very skilled in patrolling the streets of the town, it was Ling Tengyun.

When everyone first saw him, there were some differences, because they felt that Ling Tengyun looked both familiar and unfamiliar.

In the past, Ling Tengyun pretended to be Yan Ming and replaced him for a while, but he still left some impressions in everyone's hearts.

But soon, some people began to inquire everywhere about Ling Tengyun's identity.

When he knew that Ling Tengyun was actually a member of the famous Ling family, he immediately stood in awe.

It seems that this place in Seven Heroes Town is really outrageous, and the newly appointed catchers have such a big background!

Combined with all the things that happened before, everyone felt that it should be, after all, if he was an ordinary person, he might not be able to control Seven Heroes Town.

After what happened last time, Di Yun and Lin Pingzhi also returned to the state of living incognito and living at ease.

It's just that after witnessing the scene of a group of grandmaster realm fighting, Lin Pingzhi's horizons have broadened a lot, and he has been practicing swordsmanship even harder recently.

The things that Yan Ming gave him came into play, and Lin Pingzhi, who had been stagnant for a long time, had recently shown signs of rapid progress.

Di Yun, on the other hand, has a lot of Buddhism in comparison, planting vegetables with peace of mind, and the Shenzhao Sutra is completely growing with fate.

Yan Ming also got a bonus recently, because after he reminded Sable Chan last time, the other party was really a little scared when he went back, and submitted a large amount of taxes to the Yamen, which is not a small amount.

It seems that Sai Diao Chan is still more knowledgeable, if he reminds him that the other party does not react, then the next thing is that Yan Ming will come to check the accounts in person.

But she is not at a loss, the flow of people in Qixia Town has become more and more large, and the business of Yihong Mansion is naturally becoming more and more prosperous, and Sai Diao Chan has made a lot of money.

Just like that, another peaceful day passed, and on this day, Yan Ming was drinking tea in the lobby of the Tongfu Inn, and walked in alone.

"Is Yan Zhutou here, my master sent a thank you gift from the capital."
