The streets are full of pedestrians converging in one direction.

Yang Ge and Wang Dali walked through the gradually crowded crowd, and walked back to the Yuelai Inn.

From a distance, Yang Ge saw Shopkeeper Liu standing in the half-open door of the inn, surrounded by the surrounding merchant owners.

Seeing Yang Ge coming back, Shopkeeper Liu was overjoyed and greeted him: "You guys are here!" ”

Yang Ge leaned up and asked confusedly, "Shopkeeper, what's the situation?" ”

Wang Dali's mouth, when talking about gossip, is as sharp as Allegro, but when it comes to business, it is like the crotch of cotton pants, and he can't figure out a clue for a long time.

Yang Ge listened to him all the way, but he didn't understand what was going on.

Shopkeeper Liu first sent the neighbors who gathered in front of the inn gate, and waited until there were only three of them left in the inn before he said: "The gangster who came to rob our inn the night before was caught, and the official asked us all to come to the inn to wait, and the gangster will be taken here to identify later." ”

'Is the embroidery guard so efficient?' ’

Yang Ge knew in his heart, and then pointed to the flow of people outside the door: "These people on the street are ......"

Shopkeeper Liu: "Look at the excitement, the official family is escorting that gangster to parade through the street!" ”

"Parade?"

Yang Ge was stunned for two seconds before he suddenly reacted, and praised in his heart: "It is worthy of being a person who does big things, and the pattern is big!" ’

He first thought that Shen Fa would send someone to release the news and directly detain the "martial arts secret book left by Jiang Kui" on the body of the man in black the night before.

I didn't expect Shen Fa to publicize this matter with such fanfare, and he did not hesitate to push it to a political height of killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys!

In this way......

Solved his problem once and for all.

He also made an example of chickens and monkeys, which strengthened the law and order during the martial arts test.

also indirectly in front of the lawless Jianghu people, showing a wave of the prestige of the imperial court and the majesty of the embroidered guards.

It can be described as killing three birds with one stone!

Compared with Shen Fa's method, his method is not only passive and petty, but also cannot solve the problem at the root!

Shopkeeper Liu also seemed to think of this layer, and asked expectantly: "Little brother, this time, that matter is in the past, right?" ”

Yang Ge nodded firmly: "It must be in the past, the officials have come forward, and they can't get along with us again, isn't that a slap in the face of the officials?" Not worth it! ”

Hearing Yang Ge's categorical assurance, the big stone hanging in the heart of Shopkeeper Liu finally fell to the ground.

He smoothed his chest and said with relief: "It's good to pass, it's good to pass...... We can't sleep all night for the past two days, I'm afraid that this thing will hurt you, if that's the case, we won't want to live in peace for the rest of our lives! ”

This matter was over, and he finally spoke out of his worries.

Yang Ge's heart was a little touched, and he smiled and said with relief: "You just think too much, didn't I tell you yesterday that there was nothing serious?" You still don't believe me! ”

Shopkeeper Liu turned around and dragged a chair, sat down slowly, and waved his hand with a smile when he heard the words: "Yes or no, we have a rod and scale in our hearts!" ”

Yang Ge smiled, didn't say anything more, and turned to Wang Dali and said: "Little Brother Wang, come with me to boil some boiling water and make a few pots of hot tea, and the officials will come to the door later, we can't even entertain hot water, that's too rude!" ”

When he said this, Shopkeeper Liu couldn't sit still, and stood up with a pat on his forehead: "Negligent, negligent, you go and boil water, let's go and bring the good tea we have saved......"

Coincidentally, the three of them in the inn were in a hurry to make tea, when they heard a loud gong.

The three of them hurriedly greeted them.

In the center of the crowded long street, more than 20 officials and family members wearing Xuandi splendid eyelid sleeve tunics and silver oxtail knives on their waists and hips escorted a middle-aged man covered in blood and shackles on both hands and feet, beating gongs and drums to this side.

Yang Ge was mentally prepared, and after glancing at the embroidered guards in the eyelid suits, he turned his gaze to the middle-aged man in shackles, feeling that this person's figure was indeed very similar to the man in black who touched the inn the night before.

Shopkeeper Liu was not mentally prepared, and the moment he saw these embroidered clothes and guards, he was so frightened that his legs weakened: "Forehead, embroidered clothes!" ”

Yang Ge quickly grabbed him: "Don't be afraid, we are all good citizens, and the adults of the embroidered clothes are here to administer justice to us, what are you afraid of?" ”

"Yes yes yes ......"

Shopkeeper Liu nodded like pounding garlic: "We are all good citizens...... Eight generations of ancestors are good citizens! ”

That being said, the old man's legs still shook like the little prince of electric music.

Seeing the appearance of the shopkeeper Liu, Yang Ge finally had an intuitive understanding of the deterrent power of the embroidered guard.

A group of embroidered guards escorted the middle-aged man to the door of the Yuelai Inn, and the officer led by him raised his hand, and the whole team stopped.

"Are you the bitter master of the Yuelai Inn?"

The embroidered guard officer pressed the knife on his waist, and his eyes were as cold as the wind and glanced at the three people in front of the inn gate.

Shopkeeper Liu stepped forward tremblingly, waving his hands like pounding garlic: "Fat and fat, let's ...... us"

Seeing that Shopkeeper Liu was so nervous that he couldn't even straighten his tongue, Yang Ge stepped forward and waved his hand and said: "Lord Hui, the grass people and others are the owners of the Yuelai Inn, and there were indeed gangsters who touched our Yuelai Inn the night before to commit murder, and it was the villains found by the grass people." ”

"That's just right!"

The embroidered guard officer turned sideways and pointed at the middle-aged man behind him: "You carefully identify, is this fang the gangster who committed the murder the night before?" ”

"Yes!"

Yang Ge answered, and under the attention of countless people, he stepped forward to take a closer look at the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man stuffed a ball in his mouth, unable to speak, and saw Yang Ge leaning in front of him and looking intently, and screamed in horror.

The appearance of the cloak and tears flowing down is both hideous and pitiful.

"Be honest!"

The embroidered guard officer didn't know whether he was afraid that Yang Ge would be frightened by this middle-aged man, or that Yang Ge would have other concerns, so he turned around and kicked him to his knees.

Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man fell to the ground, wailing and rolling on the ground, as if he had suffered some great injustice.

There was a slight commotion in the crowd......

There was no discussion, but there seemed to be countless mosquitoes and flies scurrying in the air.

Yang Ge looked up at the Embroidered Guard officer.

only to find that the embroidered guard officer was also looking at him...... Look straight at yourself.

He lowered his head, stepped on the middle-aged man's neck, bent down to pull his clothes, and saw that his left shoulder was close to his chest, and a circle of hemostatic cloth was tied around him.

He lifted the hemostatic cloth, and a hideous blood scab half a foot long, from left to right, with the flesh turned to both sides, even if a thick layer of hemostatic medicine was applied, it was still oozing black blood in front of his eyes.

Seeing this scar, Yang Ge finally determined the identity of the person at his feet.

The night before, the man in black lifted the table with his hand and extinguished the oil lamp on the table.

The only clue that Yang Ge can verify the identity of the man in black is his first axe to plunge into the darkness...... It was an axe he had struck with the last memory of the light being extinguished, and the direction of the black-clad man's shout.

He clearly remembered that the axe had struck the man in black in the chest.

The subsequent tearing was completely blind and a few cuts, although he himself felt that he had also slashed a few axes, but he didn't know where he had hit.

"Lord Qiqi, this person is indeed the villain who touched our Yuelai Inn the night before to commit murder, and that night the grass people were forced to fight with the villains, and once used the axe of our inn to chop wood, and slashed the gangster's chest...... Look, my lord, this scar is proof! ”

Everyone's eyes followed Yang Ge's words and turned to the middle-aged man's chest.

The crowd gradually fell silent, and the sound of mosquitoes and flies flying in the air slowly disappeared.

The embroidered guard officer glanced at the scars, looked up and said, "Is there any physical evidence?" ”

Yang Ge waved his hand: "There is physical evidence...... Brother Wang, the firewood axe is hidden on the roof of the thatched house, and I bother you to get it. ”

When the king heard this, he threw down a sentence of "I'll go get it" as if he had been pardoned, and ran to the inn.

Seeing this, the embroidered guard officer waved his hand, and immediately two embroidered guards pressed their waist knives and quickly followed.

After a while, two embroidered guards took Wang Dali's grip and retrieved a rusty axe with a little blood on the blade of the axe, and presented it to the embroidered guard officer.

The embroidered guard officer took the wood axe, walked to the middle-aged man and squatted down, holding the wood axe to compare it with the scar on his chest.

Soon, he waved his hand at Yang Ge without looking back.

Yang Ge understood, raised his foot and let go of the middle-aged man's neck, bowed back and took a step back.

The middle-aged man listened to the whole conversation between Yang Ge and the embroidered guard officer, and as soon as he got up, he kept kowtowing to the embroidered guard officer.

The embroidered guard officer took off the ball from his mouth, got up and shouted condescendingly: "Ding Man, do you think you do you recognize the fact that you sneaked into the Yuelai Inn the night before, broke into the house, and plotted against you?" ”

The evidence is conclusive, where did the middle-aged man dare to be tough with the fierce and powerful embroidered guard, and immediately cried and begged for mercy: "Lord Qiyu, the grass people just wanted to rob ...... that night"

The embroidered guard officer interrupted his plea for mercy in a cold voice: "Just confess your guilt!" ”

The middle-aged man was stunned, and suddenly straightened up and was about to shout......

It's a pity that it's too late.

"Boom."

I saw a dazzling flash of light.

Before Yang Ge, who was standing behind the middle-aged man, could react to what was happening, he was confused by a puddle of warm liquid.

He subconsciously touched his cheek and fixed his eyes: red and sticky.

As soon as I looked down again, I saw the middle-aged man's head rolling to the ground, bounced on the ground like a leather ball, and then rolled all the way to his feet, turned over to his face, and looked at him with a pair of frightened faces with wide eyes......

Yang Ge shuddered suddenly, and a tingling sensation like an electric shock spread from the tail vertebrae, and in an instant, it climbed up to the scalp and turned into goosebumps all over his body.

"Bang."

The headless corpse fell, crimson blood gushing out like an open faucet, flowing and staining the ground scarlet.

Yang Ge finally came back to his senses, took seven or eight steps back in a row, sat on the ground with his buttocks, and scratched wildly on his body with both hands.

He closed his eyes tightly, not daring to look at the bloody scene in front of him.

But the bloody picture of the human head and the headless corpse drifting on the red carpet seemed to be engraved into his mind.

It made him goosebumps all over his body, and he was crazy one after another, and he couldn't stop itching no matter how he scratched it!

The embroidered guard officer glanced at him disdainfully, turned to face the many people around him, pointed at the headless corpse of the middle-aged man with the long knife in his hand, and shouted loudly.

"Taiyuan Mansion Huwei Dart Bureau dart master Ding Man, lawless, bold, in the period of martial arts to commit this burglary, murder for money, murder of the death of the crime, corrupt the grace of the saint, undermine the integrity of the martial arts, the crime should be punished, the evil is not forgiven, hereby clear canonical punishment, to set an example!"

The crowd fell silent for a moment, and suddenly someone shouted, "Your Excellency! ”

"Lord Qingtian!"

"When the adults come, the blue sky of Luting County will have a ......"

The crowd exploded, cheers and praises came and went, boiling like a festival.

Only Yang Ge was still sitting in place, scratching his ears and cheeks frantically: "Nightmare, nightmare......"

……

In due course, in the second floor of a house not far from the opposite side of the Yuelai Inn.

Shen Fa sat in front of the window, staring intently at the big drama in front of the Yuelai Inn that was about to end.

Behind him, more than a dozen figures dressed in disheveled clothes like street vendors' pawns walked back and forth in a hurry.

"Painter, the guest sat on the ground scratching his ears and cheeks, closed his eyes and did not dare to look directly at the decapitated corpse, and whispered and cursed: 'Nightmare, nightmare, cover', 'Psychotic, all psychotic'...... Uh, the latest news, the guest vomited. ”

"In the account room, the guest bought six buckets of corn, two buckets of wheat, two catties of pork meat, and three taels of private salt in Lutingdong City on June 18, costing one hundred and twenty-seven."

"Lizheng, Dongshi Caitou Valley has land, the family is well-off, the only daughter Gu Yingchun, thin and beautiful, intends to recruit guests as sons-in-law, three ask the shopkeeper to say peace on behalf of them, all were politely refused, there is no idea of starting a family for the time being, Gu Yingchun is very angry, has privately to the inn to find guests, the guests avoid ......"

"Master, three months ago, there was a Dongying businessman to the inn to play sharp, Xiao Wang got his reward money Sanwen, Xiao Wang was overjoyed, told the guest to let him go to the reward, the guest said: 'Dongying little ghost, there is a small section but no righteousness, born in the face of people but no heart', persuade Xiao Wang not to be deceived by the illusion, Xiao Wang suspects that the guest is jealous of his reward, inform the neighbors ......"

Shen Fa listened to the reports behind him, and the image of Yang Ge in his mind was becoming clearer and clearer.
