Songshan County, Songshan County, Jiannan Province, recently came to a county magistrate surnamed Fan, Fan Zhixian is named Fan Lin, I heard that King Wei personally arranged to come to Songshan County to be the magistrate, the officials were a little afraid at first, because they heard the legend that this Fan Zhixian and King Wei were distant relatives and other relations, King Wei arranged him here to be the magistrate, and he couldn't afford to offend. Later, I saw with my own eyes that Lord Long Shiyuan, who was temporarily serving as the county guard, came to visit Fan Zhixian in person, and even confirmed this rumor, even Lord Long, who was about to take over as the county guard, was so polite to Lord Fan, could the rumor be false?

In a county, from the county magistrate to the county lieutenant to the clerks of each room and the officials of the court, they all respect Fan Zhixian, no one dares to offend the tiger power of Fan Zhixian, and there are people in the court who are good officials, not to mention that this county prince is still a relative of the biggest official in Jiannan Province? My lord, a few days ago, I was ordered by my predecessor Mrs. Dou to go to the field to investigate a case, and I was injured and has been recuperating at home. ”

Fan Zhixian heard Qi Mingshan say this, nodded and said: "Okay, since he was injured in the line of duty, I will be tired of Qi Bantou and take the official to visit him later! If we want to do a good job in a county, the government officials must work together to catch the three classes and six rooms, and now that Jiannan has got rid of the cattle all over the ground, it is the time when all kinds of waste are waiting to be rebuilt, and the official is also a good corporal!"

Qi Bantou laughed secretly in his heart, our Lord Fan has just taken office, he is going to put on a score, a small catch, neither into the stream nor into the product, if he can't do a good job, he will be punished, you said that he wants to be a virtuous corporal, if a little catcher can also be called a virtuous man, then what is it called? But Shangguan has this heart, who dares to stop it, Qi Bantou hurriedly laughed and said: "Ouch, he was injured by a small catcher, and he has to work to visit him with the big car of the county magistrate, I am afraid that his ancestors have accumulated great virtue for eight generations!"

In a word, it made all the officials laugh, but this arrester is not very familiar with everyone, and he can't see each other a few times a year, and he has a bad relationship with local officials, so he can't be a fast horse, he can't be a fast horse, and he can't afford a poor horse, and he usually rides a skinny black donkey. What a big raindrop has fallen on his head today, and the new magistrate is going to visit him, maybe he will be happy, let him be a horse!

At noon, Fan Zhixian said that he was going to visit this fast catcher, and asked someone to buy some cooked food, chicken, duck, fish, pig head meat, and brought two jars of old wine, and asked Qi Bantou to lead the way. Team leader Qi Mingshan hurriedly called his two capable servants Bai Laosan and Lu Laowu to go together, and asked the county magistrate if he wanted to sit in a sedan chair, Fan Zhixian smiled: "I just paid a private visit to him, once he sedan chair is about to sound the gong to open the way, let's ride a bad horse to visit him, how about it?"

Qi Bantou was originally worried that this county master would not be able to ride a horse, but as soon as he pulled the horse out, this county master did not need to be helped, and he flew on the horse by himself, and his equestrian skills looked pretty good! Qi Bantou was secretly surprised, how could he know that their county master had been a mountain bandit back then, and riding a horse was simply trivial.

Luo Zhukuai's family lives on the edge of the Qingshui Bridge next to the east gate of the city, and the three dilapidated brick houses can barely shelter from the wind and rain. I heard that this catcher rarely interacts with people, and occasionally buys some candy cubes to tease the children nearby, even if it is his daily communication. Fan Zhixian, Qi Bantou, Bai Laosan, and Lu Laowu arrived at the gate of Luoyu Kuaijia, got off the horse, and Qi Bantou stepped forward to pat the dilapidated gate, and said loudly: "Is Brother Luo at home? Qi Mingshan is visiting!"

Qi Bantou patted the door for a long time, and someone inside agreed: "Who is this? If you slam the door so hard in broad daylight? If you slam the door off, you will have to compensate me for a new one!" As he spoke, someone opened the door, poked his head out, saw Qi Bantou first, and smiled, "Who should I be, it turned out to be Qi Bantou, please come in, what's the matter, what kind of distant case do you want me to investigate? I won't tell you, my injury is not good, I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort to go far away, and if the money for handling the case is not enough, I won't go!"

Fan Zhixian, who was watching from the side, was dumbfounded, this person was caught quickly, it turned out to be him? Caught quickly, he was chatting with Qi Bantou, and Qi Bantou smiled: "Lao Luo, I didn't come to you to handle the case today, you see, it was the magistrate who heard that you were injured in the line of duty, and bought some wine and food to visit you! The lord didn't know the way, so he asked me to lead the way, you have a good mouth today, and the two jars of old wine brought by the magistrate are well-mouthed!"

Luo Yu Kuai was very surprised and said: "Ouch, there is also a reason why the magistrate of the county came to see me for a small catch? It is really the sun that comes out in the west!" Luo Yu quickly turned his head, and saw Fan Chenglin turn over from the horse, he was stunned, and immediately smiled: "Lord Zhixian, please forgive me for my injuries, back pain, and I can't salute!" Alas, if your old man still has money in hand, you can send me the money for this medicine, along with the little money you owe me, this spring is also coming, my house is also old, I am afraid that it will leak rain, and I have to repair it." ”

The catchers don't have a lot of money, they have a lot of food and silver every year, and occasionally they have to be deducted a little by Shangguan, the case is not solved, and the prisoners are not caught and they have to be punished, so the job of catching fast is actually not easy to do.

Fan Zhixian laughed and said: "Oh, Brother Luo was injured in the line of duty, and we don't make a fuss, what kind of etiquette do we have? Lack of silver? Good to say, just go back to the county to find our master to settle the silver, you can't let Brother Luo suffer for our court, and there is no money to spend!" As he spoke, Fan Zhixian stepped forward and took Luo Yukuai's hand and entered the courtyard. Qi Bantou and Bai Laosan and Lu Laowu in the back couldn't touch the door, and said in their hearts that our county magistrate is too familiar, and it doesn't matter if you don't kneel when you see the county, you still hold his hand and walk together, it's just amazing!

Bai Laosan and Lu Laowu handed over the cooked food and wine jars to Luo Yukuai, Fan Zhixian looked around at the furnishings in the house, sure enough, this Luoyu Kuai was poor enough, the Eight Immortals table in the house was lame, and there were two red bricks underneath, and the chairs were also old and not good, and the paint had fallen off a lot, Fan Zhixian nodded and said: "Well, Brother Luo is really a poor person, and I will call someone to repair the house for you when I go back!"

Qi Bantou said in his heart that this Lao Luo really didn't understand the world, and quickly coughed, "I said Lao Luo, our master has the heart to take care of you, don't you want to thank the master?"

"Then I'll thank you!" "Then I will thank the adult!" "I looked at Qi Bantou, Bai Laosan and Lu Laowu, "I said Qi Bantou, Lao Bai, Lao Lu, I am a poor man, let's not make a fuss, you go to the back garden to see if the cucumbers are ripe, if there are ripe, pick a few down, let's take a cucumber cold dish and drink it!"

Qi Bantou laughed and said, "If you want it, you have to get it!" took Bai Laosan and Lu Laowu to the small garden behind to pick cucumbers.

Fan Zhixian saw that the three of them went out, so he restrained his smile, got up and said: "I really didn't expect that Luo Fengyang, the second in the world, would be willing to be a small catcher who doesn't make money, and live in such a dilapidated house that can't stop the wind and rain!"

Luo Fengyang, who was under the pseudonym Cheng Yang, also stood up and said with a smile: "There are thousands of buildings, but it's only a seven-foot sleep, why should adults mind? Now that the martial arts realm has fallen into an ordinary person, to be a small catcher in this county, you have to take care of it more than adults!"

As soon as Fan Chenglin wanted to answer, he heard someone outside the house smile gloomily: "I think it's better for me to take care of both of you today!" The two people in the room looked at each other and were surprised.
