Volume I, Chapter 19. Xiao Wu hurriedly reported back to the county office, and the young master fought Jiang to catch his head

The persevering Ding Xiaowu squatted in the distance for another afternoon, observing the things of the Yiyang Gang. Night was about to fall, and just as Ding Xiaowu was about to leave, a slender figure appeared in front of the door of the Yiyang Gang. Ding Xiaowu looked from afar, and saw that the man was wearing a black tights, holding a long sword in his hand, and wearing a hat on his head, and the dark gauze curtain hanging from the hat made Ding Xiaowu unable to see the features of the person's face. But it's certain that it's a woman. After a few brief conversations with the gang members outside the Yiyang Gang, she walked into the Yiyang Gang. Ding Xiaowu felt that he should report this time to Jiang Zhixian, so he got up and walked towards the county office, thinking about the woman who visited the Yiyang Gang as he walked. Thinking about it, Ding Xiaowu thought of another thing, so he quickened his pace and ran to the county office.

After coming to the gate of the county government, Ding Xiaowu saw that it was Xiao Zhou, a servant, who was guarding the door, because Xiao Zhou and Ding Xiaowu were about the same age, so the two usually got along very well. Ding Xiaowu hurriedly ran over and asked Xiao Zhou, "My lord, are you in the county office?" ”

Xiao Zhou recognized Ding Xiaowu, saw him in a hurry, and asked, "What's wrong?" Is there anything wrong with you? ”

Ding Xiaowu said anxiously: "I have something important to report!" Take me to the adults! ”

Xiao Zhou was frightened by Ding Xiaowu's appearance, and said again and again: "The adult should be in the study." ”

After Ding Xiaowu heard this, he immediately ran towards the study of Jiang Zhixian's office, in the study, Jiang Zhixian and Zhu Shuo sorted out the information provided by the robbers today, Ding Xiaowu knocked on the door and saw: "My lord, open the door quickly!" I have something important to say. ”

Zhu Shuo heard Ding Xiaowu's voice, got up and opened the door, Ding Xiaowu walked into the room, saluted Jiang Zhixian, and said, "My lord, a mysterious woman just went to the Yiyang Gang. ”

Jiang Zhixian said: "The Yiyang Gang is a gang, and it's normal for someone to arrive." ”

Ding Xiaowu said: "Originally, I didn't take it seriously. However, seeing that person, I was reminded of another thing. About a year ago, before the previous magistrate was killed, I had seen that woman while patrolling the streets. After the magistrate died, I never saw her again. ”

Jiang Zhixian's face was solemn, and he said, "You suspect that the death of that Zhixian is related to this woman." ”

Ding Xiaowu nodded and said, "I am also a person who practices martial arts, and as soon as I look at the figure of that woman, I know that she is by no means an ordinary woman." ”

Zhu said: "I have checked the file, and the death of Ren Zhixian was died by a blunt object blow to the back of the head. Is the woman's blade a blunt weapon or something? ”

Ding Xiaowu said: "No." It is a long sword with a grayish-black hilt and three red gems at the tail. The whole hilt looks like, like, right! It's like the kind of horse in the trees in our village. ”

Jiang Zhixian frowned and said, "The hilt of the sword is like that of Ma Zhi?" I know that many years ago, there was a man named Wang Jien, and he had four killers under him, and one of them used a sword called Cicada Wing, and the hilt was shaped like a cicada's head. Legend has it that the sword was as thin as a cicada's wing, and that a cut of the skin would cut off the veins in the flesh, but would not leave a scar on the flesh. ”

Zhu said: "If there is really such a blade, then it is indeed possible that the dead magistrate did not die from a blunt object." ”

Jiang Zhixian sighed with emotion: "It's a pity that now the body of that Zhixian has been taken away by his family for burial, otherwise we can find the answer through the autopsy." Jiang Zhixian said to Ding Xiaowu: "Xiaowu, it's not early." You should go back and rest early. Tomorrow, I don't have to go to the Yiyang Gang to monitor it, and I will return to the county government as a servant. ”

After hearing this, Ding Xiaowu was very happy and said, "Okay! Thank you, Lord Jiang! Then do I still follow Lao Zhang? ”

Jiang Zhixian said: "Well, you still follow Lao Zhang, and I will appoint him as the head catcher tomorrow." We now get news that the Yiyang Gang may be making fake tea in private, and Lao Zhang and the Yiyang Gang are very close. You are under his hands, keep an eye on him and see if you can find any clues. ”

Ding Xiaowu said: "Okay. After thinking about it, he asked: "Lao Zhang is the head catcher, what about Jiang the head catcher?" ”

Jiang Zhixian said: "Let him calm down first." Xiao Wu, you go back to rest, and remember to report back to the county office tomorrow. ”

Ding Xiaowu responded: "Okay." Then I'll go back first. By the way, Jiang Zhixian, it's still the same thing I said today, I think that woman is not simple, you and Master Zhu must be careful recently, try not to go to places where there are no people. ”

Jiang Zhixian nodded, watched Ding Xiaowu leave, and then continued to deal with business with Zhu Shuo.

After Li Yu came out of Hua Feng's room, he wanted to go to his master to discuss whether he could let his master help him. But he didn't find his master in the county office, and after asking someone, he learned that the miscellaneous servant Lao Yang had gone back. Li Yu was already angry, and when he saw that his master actually left first, he complained: "Why didn't Master wait for me to leave!" Somehow, he slipped to the backyard of the county government alone, and saw a person sitting on a bluestone in the backyard, the night was dark, and he couldn't see the person's face clearly, Li Yu walked over curiously.

"Who?" Jiang Hong noticed someone approaching and asked vigilantly.

Li Yu heard Jiang Hong's voice and greeted, "Isn't this Jiang Catcher?" How can you be here alone? ”

Jiang Hong said coldly: "Don't call me a headcatcher, I'm no longer a headcatcher." ”

Li Yu replied lightly: "Oh." ”

When Li Yu walked to Jiang Hong's side, Jiang Hong saw Li Yu's face clearly, and said with some disdain: "It's you?" ”

Li Yu said: "What? This is your attitude when you see your benefactor? ”

Jiang Hong was not angry and said, "Why are you my benefactor?" ”

Li Yu changed his voice and said, "What? Forgot? But Brother Da Dong and I, get you out of that room! ”

Jiang Hong was taken aback when he heard this familiar voice, and said, "It's really you!" ”

Li Yu said: "I'm in a bad mood right now, and I want to find someone to fight!" ”

"Good! I'm here for you! Jiang Hong said without thinking. Jiang Hong was in a very depressed mood today, and he practiced marksmanship alone in this backyard for an afternoon, but he was tired and tired, and he was worried about how to solve his worries. Jiang Hong also wanted to find someone to make a move at this time and change his mood.

The two immediately put on a stand and fought. Because Li Yu had no blade, the two fought with their bare hands. Jiang Hong is older than Li Yu, so he is naturally stronger than Li Yu, relying on his own advantages, he has all his strength to attack Li Yu, his fists are stiff, and he is full of momentum. Li Yu was ready to fight, seriously resisting Jiang Hong's attack, waving his fists to fight against Jiang Hong. At this time, Li Yu's mood was also as depressed as Jiang Hong, and there were many things he wanted to do, but he couldn't do it. I asked for help, but no one took care of me. The two of them were in a resentful mood under the moonlight, sparing no effort to attack each other, and the sound of humming played in the uninhabited backyard, both of them seemed to be venting the bitterness in their hearts. After about 30 moves, both of them punched each other in the face! The two immediately stopped their movements and asked in unison, "Are you okay?" ”

"It's fine." The two said at the same time again. After a hearty battle, both of them seemed to be in a much better mood, and Li Yu said, "Let's take a rest!" Again in a moment! ”

Jiang Honghao said happily: "Okay! It's been a long time since I've had such a good time! Well, I haven't asked yet, what's your name? Jiang Hongcai realized that he didn't know the other party's name yet.

"My name is Li Yu." Li Yu replied.

"My name is Jiang Hong. Li Shaoxia, your martial arts are really powerful! I really admire you for having this skill at such a young age. Jiang Hong praised Li Yu.

"I'm not a disciple of the Oath Alliance." Li Yu explained.

"What? You're not a disciple of the Sworn Jiang League? Didn't you come with Vice Alliance Leader Hua? Because Jiang Zhixian had lifted the arrest of Li Yu, saying that Li Yu was deliberately sent by the Sworn Jiang League to break into the robbers' eyes, Jiang Hong thought that Li Yu was a disciple of the Sworn Jiang League.

Li Yu realized that he seemed to have slipped his mouth, and quickly explained: "I came with the Hua Deputy Alliance Master, but I am not a disciple of the Sworn Jiang League. ”

Jiang Hong said indifferently: "Whether you are a disciple of the Sworn Jiang League or not, your skills are indeed good." Moreover, I remember that when you rescued the robber in the county office, you seemed to burst out with a strong internal force, and then it was like a different person. ”

Li Yu smiled and said, "That's a kind of exercise in my family. ”

Jiang Hong said: "Family martial arts? No wonder, if you used that trick just now, I guess you wouldn't be your opponent. ”

Li Yu said: "This is not necessarily, I have fought with you before, and your most powerful thing should be your marksmanship." ”

Jiang Hong looked at the pear flower gun leaning next to the bluestone and said, "I have been learning marksmanship from my master since I was a child, and I think I can be in charge of it alone. I just thought about building up my career and making others look up to me. But he never thought that he was in a hurry to succeed in other people's ways, and he was captured by others. So much so that now, because of my own recklessness, my uncle, who valued me the most, has lost faith in me and dismissed me as the head catcher. Jiang Hong began to reflect on his mistakes.

Li Yu comforted: "You are already good, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers." Speaking of recklessness, how can I be like me, I believe the words of others too much, but I harm innocent people. ”

Jiang Hong asked, "What do you mean by that?" ”

Li Yu told Jiang Hong about Zhang Haiwei, and Jiang Hong said indignantly: "This Zhang Haiwei is really not a thing. actually betrayed his friends to exonerate himself, and threatened you with innocent people to make you hand over your family's cheats. ”

Li Yu sighed: "People's hearts are sinister, when this matter is over, no one can help in the future, do nothing, but you are the safest." ”

Jiang Hong said: "Li Shaoxia, this is not right. Kindness is our own choice, but others take advantage of our kindness, and that is the evil of others. I think we should still help those in need, help them get out of their predicament, and persuade them to change their ways and do good. Even if you are misunderstood, you have no regrets. It's not a poem that says, but if you know what to do, don't ask about the future. Now, I also want to open it, even if I am no longer a headcatcher, just an ordinary servant, I must do my duty and serve the country and the people. ”

Li Yu muttered: "But if you know how to do good things, don't ask about the future." Li Yu made up his mind and said to Jiang Hong: "Jiang Zhutou, are you willing to go with me to Xiaolin Town to find someone." ”
