The two walked out of the county office one after the other, and the sky had changed color at this time.

The starry stars in the dark night are like night pearls inlaid on the brocade robe, which is intoxicating and fascinating.

The county government is located in the north of Yuncheng, far from the Yihong Courtyard in the southwest, almost half of the city.

Tietang was not in a hurry, and walked slowly on the street, while savoring his current cultivation, while checking the customs of Yuncheng.

There is no curfew in Yuncheng!

In addition, the law and order are good, and there are many fast arrests, and once there is any conflict, it can respond quickly, and it is considered to be a developed business.

Even if the sky is shady, the hawkers, shops, restaurants, and tea shops on both sides of the street do not close, but hang red lanterns at the door one by one to attract passers-by.

The trip is about halfway through.

An old tea shop attracted Tietang's attention.

In front of the door, there is a green willow tree, green tiles cover the head, red bricks are paved, and the square tables and rattan chairs in a circle are full of people, all of whom are drinking tea and chatting.

March is the end of spring and the climate is at its coolest.

A pinch of tea, a pot of hot water, a handful of side fruits, sit in the tea shop for one night in a hurry, talk with the neighbors, discuss the past and the present with knowledge, and let the spring breeze blow.

How easy is this?

Yuan Hua didn't pay attention, and almost bumped into Tie Tang, he was still thinking about the master in front of him..... When did you break through to Yiten?

"Head? Why don't we go and sit down too? ”

Tie Tang shook his head and looked under the willow tree, where a young man was squatting in deep thought.

He was small, disheveled, and had a dirty gray robe, like a beggar.

But the chattering crowd around the tea shop avoided it, and no one dared to step forward.

Just because there is a narrow knife hanging horizontally on his waist, like a crescent moon hanging from his waist, and like a goose feathering up and down.

Autumn water goose feather knife!

Following Tie Tang's gaze, Yuan Hua also recognized this person, and couldn't help but scold and walk over.

"Why are you kid hiding from this laziness? I haven't seen you for a few days, and I thought you were gone. ”

The young man tilted his head and glanced at Yuan Hua, and buried his head back again.

"Where does the master go, do I have to report to you? Don't get too close to me, I can't stand the smell on my body. ”

Yuan Hua raised his right arm and sniffed, then changed his left hand and sniffed, he didn't feel any peculiar smell, and asked curiously, "What smell does I have?" ”

The young man didn't raise his head, and said with a smile: "Sycophant." ”

"Hiki! You ......"

"Haha!"

Tie Tang was happy and laughed out loud, this kid is still so bad.

The young man was strange, and his name was strange, but when he heard Tie Tang's laughter, he immediately stood up from the ground.

"Brother Tang, how did you get here?"

"What are you doing here? If it weren't for the knife, I would have barely recognized you. ”

The annoyed Yuan Hua said hatefully: "I'm afraid that if I wasn't robbed, I left with all my belongings, and I was embarrassed to go back to the county office." ”

The young man was indeed a little embarrassed, gray-headed, like a little monkey squatting under the willow tree, if he didn't have that saber, he was afraid that anyone would dare to come up and step on his feet.

Biqi ignored it, but explained to Tietang with a straight face.

"I was crouching there, thinking I didn't know what to eat at night."

"That's it?" Tie Tang was also a little speechless.

"A quarter of an hour ago, a beautiful girl from a good family passed by here, saying that she had lost her money bag, and asked people everywhere if they had seen it, and I thought she was pitiful......."

Before Biqi finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yuan Hua.

"You're not going to give her two silver, are you? This kind of deception is a deception at first glance, and you are still a fast catcher, which you can't see?

It's a shame to be the head of our county, and Yuan is ashamed to be with you. ”

Biqi didn't refute either, looked at Yuan Hua like a fool, and waited quietly for him to finish.

"And then?" Tie Tang was a little curious, the Biqi he remembered was not like this.

At that time, I saw that she was crying, and I asked many people but there was no response, and it was very pitiful, so I stepped forward to comfort her for a while.

Xu looked at me like a good talker, so she dared to ask me to borrow two taels of silver to make a coil, saying that when I returned to Youxian, I would definitely let people pay it back. ”

"So you gave it to her?" Yuan Hua's face was full of sarcasm.

Biqi nodded: "Given!" ”

"What a stupid!" Yuan Hua seized the time to output, there are really not many opportunities to bully this guy.

Tie Tang smiled slightly, as if he knew the answer, patted Biqi on the shoulder, and then turned around and said.

"You, you, what do you do to bully a weak woman, when someone comes from Youxian, remember to give it back to her."

Biqi's eyes lit up instantly, as if he had changed into a different person, bouncing around Tie Tang, and asked with a smile: "Brother Tang, how can you see it?" I played it well, and I didn't tell a lie. ”

Yuan Hua was stunned in place, but he didn't understand what was going on, and when he looked up, Tie Tang and the others had already walked away, and hurriedly increased their steps to follow.

"What's going on? Head, what are you doing dumb with this kid? ”

"Dangdang, the mystery is revealed!"

Like a child getting the most beloved baby, Biqi took out a money bag with dragon and phoenix embroidery from his arms, pinched the mouth of the bag with his fingers, and swayed back and forth in front of Yuan Hua's eyes.

"It's... This... What is it? Yuan Hua was stunned.

The female red of the money bag is extremely exquisite, and the material is also high-quality brocade silk, which is obviously not owned by ordinary people.

"I picked up the money bag that the woman had lost, and it contained twenty taels of silver.

I gave her two taels and earned eighteen taels, and I was worried about which restaurant to go to for a good meal at night. ”

"Is that okay?" Yuan Hua was speechless, it was obviously a common trick and deception, and if it didn't work on this kid, he made a fortune.

Twenty taels of silver, a lot, Yuan Hua's monthly salary is only eight taels or nine dollars.

"Brother Tang, I was going to lie to you once, why didn't you fall for it, I wasted a long time and deceived a nerd."

Biqi looked sullen, and Yuan Hua hated itchy.

"Take advantage of less, a girl's family, or from Youxian, you are embarrassed to bully."

Tie Tang didn't explain, he actually had several cases flashed in his mind, and combined with Biqi's quirky and unwilling temperament, it was not difficult to figure out the reason.

This kind of deception in the previous life...... That's too much.

"I didn't steal it, I really picked it up from the ground.

When you find a treasure on the ground, ask the heavens and the earth if you want it.

If it weren't for the fact that she was so pitiful, I originally only planned to give one or two, but then I gave an extra pair! ”

Tie Tang was happy, but he didn't pursue it anymore, it was all a trivial matter, and it was a big deal to wait for the woman to send someone over and return the money bag.

He straightened his face and stopped laughing: "How is the matter going, have you found anything?" ”

When it came to business, Biqi stopped playing, glanced at Yuan Hua, who consciously walked away, and whispered close to Tietang.

"Too much time has passed, the spring rain in March is continuous, and there are many jackals, tigers and leopards in the Sifang Mountain, and there are not many original traces.

Concrete...... I'll talk about it when I get back to the county office. ”

There are many people on the street, it is indeed not the place to talk, Tie Tang just wants to confirm, and now that he knows it, he won't ask more.

Biqi is one of the henchmen of Tietang's predecessor.

Unlike Yuan Hua, he is the person Tietang really trusts, which is a point that the predecessor firmly believes.

Biqi, who is only sixteen years old, is also an orphan, and he and Tie Tang have known each other since they were young, but the two were only general friends at that time.

Later, he was unjustly imprisoned, powerless, and had no one to help him, and was almost forced to death.

It was at this time that Tie Tang appeared, saw the flaws at a glance, concluded that Biqi was not the real murderer, and forcibly overturned the case for him.

At that time, although Tietang was not the chief catcher, his reputation was already obvious, and he was more convincing to catch quickly.

Later, there was no need to repeat it, with Tietang's means, it was easy to solve this case, and he saved Biqi's life alive.

Biqi, who has been in prison for half a year, has no relatives and no reason, and after an accident, he exhausted his belongings, so Tie Tang simply recommended him as a catcher and let him have a living errand.

When he was promoted to the chief catcher, he promoted Biqi to catch fast.

Catching fast is a court establishment, although it is a foreign editor, it is not at the grade, and it is not possible to place it at will.

But Tie Tang, as the chief catcher of a county, still has this power.

No one in the county government cares, the county order doesn't speak, the county doesn't speak, who dares to do it against the chief catcher?

After repeated actions, Hiki does not swear allegiance to the death, but he will never betray easily, and he is a person who can be trusted.

He didn't show up in Yuncheng during this time, so he went out to inquire about other affairs for Tie Tang.

"Brother Tang, where are you going?"

"Yihongyuan!"

Biqi's eyes widened, he looked at Tie Tang blankly, and he couldn't speak for a while, this time he didn't act.
