Qin Xuan saw that Xiao Hai was deep in thought, and did not disturb. It took a while for Xiaohai to recover.

Qin Xuan asked, "What do you think of?" so distressed, his face was cloudy for a while and sunny for a while. ”

Xiao Hai asked, "Brother Qin, what case are you here to investigate?"

Qin Xuan said, "It's okay to tell you. Recently, the water thieves in Xiakou Jiujiang have been rampant, and the local government Yin has not done well in recent years, and the imperial court has sent six doors to investigate this case, and I am here to investigate this case. ”

Xiaohai said, "Just you?"

Qin Xuan said, "Isn't it enough?"

Xiao Hai looked surprised, and then asked, "Then did you find any results from your investigation?"

Qin Xuan shook his head and said, "It's too difficult, I've visited nearby villages in the past half a month, and some of the ferries do have some suspicious people, and I have secretly followed them." But these suspicious people were not connected or involved in the operation at all. I even walked out of the water with a few ships carrying valuable cargo, but I didn't encounter any pirates. However, one thing is very suspicious, some small ships will report to the government regardless of any loss after encountering water thieves, but the Fushui Gang has never reported to the government. It is understandable that they repelled the water thieves and did not report it, and they did not report the robbery of their ship to the government, and the losses were all borne by the gang. This one is suspicious. So I've been observing Xiao Kun, the leader of the Fushui Gang, for the past few days. You said it was a coincidence, I happened to meet a group of people who were also staring at the Xiao Mansion recently. And then I'm following you today. ”

Xiao Hai thought for a while and said, "Brother Qin, is there such a possibility. If the water thieves commit crimes selectively, every time the water thieves commit a crime, they will find some strangers to stay at the ferry for a period of time, which is actually to cover their real eyeliner?

Qin Xuan was stunned for a moment and asked: "Do you mean that the eyes of the water thieves are likely to stay by the ferry for a long time, and in order to divert the attention of the government, they deliberately find some strangers to go to the ferry to drink tea and chat? This is indeed a good idea, they just go to stay, they don't need to do anything, there are no flaws, but the government can only ask at most why someone is not going to have a treat." In this case, the vendors who do business at the ferry port will be the most suspicious. ”

Xiao Hai nodded and said: "This is not absolute, it may also be a shipwright transporting goods, and it is also possible that the inside and outside are combined, but the important point is that the attention of all people who want to investigate the water thieves will generally be attracted by these suspicious people." But there's one more point, it doesn't make sense. ”

Qin Xuan said: "Can you finish the words at once, it's weird and anxious." ”

Xiao Hai smiled and said, "Didn't you just think about this problem, I just thought of it." After the water thieves committed the crime, there were many rumors among the people. Shipping should not be a matter of the rivers and lakes. Robbery is not a vendetta in the rivers and lakes. Even if they don't report to the government, how can the government sit idly by?"

Qin Xuan said: "You are wrong about this, Lord Yin Qu of the local government is involved, but basically it is just a formality, they will make up for the losses of the Fushui Gang, of course it is better to have more than one thing for the local government Yin." It's just that the government is so obedient, which is suspicious, human life is at stake, water thieves endanger the people, but the government is so sloppy. This Lord Qu Yizhang should also be punished. ”

Xiao Hai nodded.

Qin Xuan's big eyes stared at Xiao Hai, and he took down his chin and pointed at Xiao Hai.

Xiao Hai was stunned and asked, "What are you doing?"

Qin Xuan said angrily: "Tell me about you, what are you doing here?" I saw you circling around the Xiao Mansion several times, you must have a plan, and you are not honest!"

Xiao Hai smiled: "Lord Qin, Mingcha, I am indeed here for Xiao Mansion." Xiao Hai told Qin Xuan about the old Dingtou's past and the old Dingtou's entrustment.

Qin Xuan touched his chin, thought for a while and said, "I'll just say, there was indeed a first gang leader Ding Shengqi in the file of the six doors at the beginning, and the file said that this person had disappeared, but I didn't expect him to have such an experience, this is very interesting." Are you really going to help with that?"

Xiaohai said: "I agreed, is there any other way? But I let you know if it is considered to have been reported to the official?"

Qin Xuan laughed and said, "Of course, forget it." So how did you plan it?"

Xiao Hai said: "It's easy to do with you, tonight I will visit Xiao's mansion at night and rescue Ding's wife and children." Then report to the officer. But there is one thing I still need Brother Qin's help with. ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it!"

Xiao Hai said: "I am definitely going to go to Xiao Mansion, but I always feel that this Ding Shengqi has something to hide from me. I'm afraid things won't be that simple tonight, so can you transfer some people from the government to prepare for me?"

Qin Xuan smiled: "That's what I mean, your suspicions are actually justified. Ding Shengqi said that his wife and children were imprisoned and kidnapped, but in fact, they were not. His son Ding Pengju is now the eldest young master of the Xiao Mansion, Xiao Kun treats him as his own, and he has never heard of any disadvantage. But Ding never went out. Of course, it is not ruled out that Xiao Kun deceived Ding's mother and son, no matter what, Ding Shengqi's statement is not entirely right. ”

Xiao Hai's heart had an extra layer of fog, and he always felt that he shouldn't have waded into this troubled water, but it had happened, so he could only go down.

Qin Xuan continued: "It just so happens that I am also investigating Xiao Kun. Since the thieves are cunning, then we have to startle the snake first!"

Xiao Hai smiled and said, "Brother Qin, you won't hide anything from me, right?"

Qin Xuan was stunned for a moment, and looked at Xiao Hai directly.

Xiao Hai said with a smile: "The six doors are in the rivers and lakes, that is the most terrifying existence, it won't come just for a few water thieves, right?" Although Qu Yizhang is not doing well, shouldn't he send a capable governor to investigate the case first, and then send the six doors to come?"

Qin Xuan looked at him in surprise and said, "You will listen to less of those legends in the future, we will take any case, how trouble-free we are." Send the governor over, how hard the court is to mobilize the people, we are cheap. ”

Xiao Hai nodded.

Qin Xuantou glanced at Xiao Hai and looked at Xiao Hai who was looking at the side.

Qin Xuan smiled and said, "Since you are going to visit the Xiao Mansion at night, there is something I would like you to help pay attention to." ”

Xiao Hai turned his head to look at Qin Xuan. It's not a smile.

Qin Xuan said: "Why are you so smart, kid? It's really a pity not to catch fast." ”

Xiao Hai laughed and said, "I can be regarded as a contributor to the imperial court, my father-in-law is the county master! I helped his old man kill the bandits!"

Qin Xuan: "Yo yo, it's been a long time, we're still a family, then you're welcome." More than ten years ago, there was a case of hijacking a ship, two million taels of silver, which disappeared overnight. The crew silver is gone. The imperial court spent a lot of manpower to investigate the matter, but to no avail. It was an official ship. This has always been the heart disease of the imperial court. More than ten years have passed, and the heads of our six doors have changed several times, but there has been no investigation result. This year, when I was sorting out the old case file, I found that the case was still unsettled. My family sent me to investigate the case, and by the way, the case of the water thieves. ”

Xiao Haixin said that this makes sense, if you use six doors with more than just a few water thieves, then the six doors are really worthless.

Xiao Hai said: "You also suspect that this matter is related to the Fushui Gang?"

Qin Xuan said: "There are no clues for the time being, but the Fushui Gang began to soar after the robbery of the official bank, and the rapid development makes people have to doubt." However, they have investigated for so many years, and they have not had any evidence to show that they did it, so they have delayed for so many years. ”

Xiao Hai nodded and said, "In this way, we are indeed going to fight the grass and scare the snake, otherwise it will be difficult for the thief to leak out." ”

Qin Xuan smiled and said, "Xiaohai, you, don't go to the White Camel Sect, come to our six gates, I will recommend it to you." How majestic it will be to be a god hunter or something in the future! My family is from the White Camel Sect, and if you worship him as a teacher, it can be regarded as a beginner. ”

Xiao Hai couldn't speak with his mouth open, and said in his heart that this is really a big sect has the advantage of a big sect.

After Xiaohai and Qin String discussed properly, the two went their separate ways. Xiao Hai found a small restaurant to eat, saw a small theater, stood in, and waited for the night to fall. It was still early after dark, and the shop closed early, and Xiaohai simply returned to the big banyan tree by the river to rest.

On the second watch day, the moon is in the sky. Natsuguchi ushered in real silence. Xiaohai jumped down from the big banyan tree. The streets were now empty, and Xiao Hai quickly came to Xiao's Mansion. According to what Ding Shengqi said, the courtyard at the back of Xiao Mansion is a yard where vehicles are placed, and there is usually no one to guard it. From there, Xiao Hai intended to enter the Xiao Mansion.

Xiao Hai came to a courtyard next to the back door. After looking at no one around, he flew up to the wall. Inside the walls were all carts, a few horses in the stables, and a man who looked like a man where to place the hay.

After the servant left, Xiao Hai observed for a while, there was no abnormality, and then his feet fell to the ground lightly. Then quickly fly to the upper room. Ding Shengqi didn't know where Mrs. Ding was, so Xiaohai could only go from yard to yard to find her. Xiao Kun is the leader of the gang after all, and there are many people who patrol the building in the courtyard and those who look like thugs. Xiao Hai has no destination, plus he needs to hide from being discovered, Xiao Mansion is particularly big, but Xiao Hai's progress tonight is very slow.

In the end, Xiaohai came to a very chic courtyard, the courtyard also had a separate door, and the room in the courtyard was lit up. Xiao Hai stood outside the wall, holding his breath, and could indeed hear a woman talking inside. Xiao Haifei went up to the wall. I found that the yard is not very big, but the rooms are exceptional. The rooms should all be for the next person.

The largest room was lit up, and there were figures walking around and whispering in it. Xiaohai took out a stone net and threw it into the yard to see if there was a Buddha and a dog in the yard. But as soon as the stone hit the ground, all of a sudden, a huge net rose from the ground, and then shrank rapidly. Xiaohai is scared!

At this time, all the doors in the courtyard opened, and dozens of people rushed out, each with knives, guns, and clubs in their hands.

At this time, the door of the main house also opened, and a middle-aged man came out, and it was too dark Xiaohai could not see clearly, only to see the middle-aged man wearing a tight black coat, burly, and a knife pinned to his waist.

At this time, a subordinate stepped forward and said, "Master, it's empty!"

Xiao Hai was still hiding on the wall and watching the scene in the yard. Xiao Hai just came out, and the middle-aged man in front of him was timed, and Xiao Kun was not fake. But what's going on tonight? They're ambushing me?

At this time, the middle-aged man was just about to speak, and Xiao Hai was also about to retreat. Xiao Hai suddenly felt a cold wind coming from behind him! Xiao Haigang was full of anger, and suddenly felt three cold arrows from behind him attacking his back! The three arrows blocked all the way for Xiao Hai, and Xiao Hai could only jump off the wall and fall into the courtyard!

As soon as Xiaohai landed, the Fushui Gang also reacted. They all looked at Xiaohai in surprise. Xiao Hai also looked at everyone with some embarrassment. Then he smiled: "I didn't know you had an ambush." ”

Xiao Kun walked in front of Xiao Hai and looked at Xiao Hai carefully, and then snorted coldly: "It's a child! Doll, do you know that if you dare to come to my Xiao Mansion, it will be a dead end!"

As soon as the words fell, Fushui helped the others, come here, Xiao Hai surrounded, and there was only a wall left behind Xiao Hai. With this thief, he went out directly and waited behind the wall to prevent Xiaohai from escaping.

Xiaohai asked, "Do you know I'm coming?"

Xiao Kun: "What if you know?"

Xiaohai: "Then what am I here for?"

Xiao Kun hesitated and said: "What do you know! Doll, you have listened to the villain's slander, and you are innocent of death, kill him for me!" After speaking, Xiao Kun waved his hand, and all the thieves rushed up!

Xiaohai didn't have time to think. Drawing the twin swords in one hand, he suddenly moved, and a needle reached his hand. Instantly shot towards Xiao Kun. Xiao Hai knew that Xiao Kun was strong in martial arts, and he never thought of taking him down with a single needle, so the moment Xiao Hai made a move, Xiao Hai's body almost flew towards Xiao Kun with the golden needle!

Then Xiao Kun pulled out the knife with one hand, shook it in front of him, and roared, until he slashed at Xiao Hai who arrived at the same time from the bottom to the top. Xiao Hai was frightened and immediately stopped, and the soles of his feet pulled back with force. But by this time, the minions next to him had already followed. opened his teeth and claws, and ran towards Xiaohai with knives and guns.

Xiao Hai didn't look back, the sword suddenly took off his hand, and he threw it back, and when he heard the sound of clanging weapons behind him, the minions were so frightened that they hurriedly retreated!

Xiao Kun was also taken aback when he saw this scene, and said: "What a strong internal force, at such an age, the internal force has such attainments as you, and it is rare to find a real number." But if that's your biggest dependence, you're wrong. With a wave of his hand, the thieves stepped forward again.

Xiao Hai didn't answer, he knew that he had to go into the house today to see what was going on anyway!

After thinking about it, Xiao Hai's fingers moved, and suddenly more than a dozen stones arrived in his hand, and he threw them out behind him! When the thief saw that there was a hidden weapon, he was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated, blocked it with his weapon, and quickly raised his weapon.

At the same time as Xiao Hai made a move, Xiao Hai's body shook and ran to Xiao Kun again.

Xiao Kun stood still with a sneer on his face. Before Xiao Hai reached Xiao Kun's approach, he raised his sword and stabbed him in the throat. Xiao Kun was just about to raise his sword to block Xiao Hai's sword, and then saw that Xiao Hai's other hand suddenly moved, and a golden needle ran towards Xiao Kun's leg. Xiao Kun found that something was wrong, and jumped away desperately in fright. The flying needle went into the air, and the sword did not stab Xiao Kun. But Xiao Kun was so frightened that he pushed it more than two feet away. Xiao Hai didn't think much about it at all, and he didn't pay attention to the thieves who came around him immediately. He turned around and ran into the house!

Xiao Hai could obviously feel that there were still people in Uzri, but he didn't move, it should be the wife of the imprisoned Ding Shengqi. Xiao Hai didn't think much about it first, and then he saved the people first. Xiao Hai hit the door and kicked it open.

But as soon as they kicked them open, a group of black-clothed men in the room shot at them head-on. Xiao Haixin said that he couldn't get the trick!
