Sixty-seven things are gone
After talking with Governor Zhang, he hurriedly left Zhang's mansion, Lin Zihao rushed back to the yamen, and he regretted a little along the way, why didn't he think of Zhou Zhiang's connection with this at that time.
At this moment, Zhou Zhiang was probably no longer in the Yamen, and it was a big mistake to let him go easily.
The first thing that came to his mind was to let Xing Zhuoyuan arrest people, but when he returned to the Ya outside the door and heard the guards say that Xing Zhuoyuan had already gone out.
However, it was urgent to arrest Zhou Zhiang, Lin Zihao rushed straight to his room first, and looked around the room, but it was really empty.
He immediately went out, found the other catchers in the door, and ordered them to take people and horses out, and a group of people went to Zhou Zhiang's mansion to arrest people.
But how can a person who has done something bad be in a place where people can easily be found.
When a group of people arrived at his mansion, they also pounced on him and disappeared.
I asked other people in the house one by one, but I only knew that Zhou Zhiang had not come back since he left the house in the morning.
It was already dusk, and Lin Zihao was sitting in front of the bookcase in the yamen, and he asked, "Has anyone found it?"
Xing Zhuoyuan replied: "I haven't found it yet, the wanted notice has been posted, and the guards who have asked the guards guarding the city have not seen him go out of the city." ”
Lin Zihao couldn't help but rub his temples and said: "Keep looking, Zhou Zhiang is an important person who we dug out the mastermind behind the scenes, not to mention that he also poisoned the prefect and must arrest him!"
Xing Zhuoyuan didn't have a look of surprise on his face, he was just about to salute and retreat, when there was a knock on the door It was Qin Changzhi's voice.
Lin Zihao ordered him to come in, and Qin Changzhi saluted and said, "My lord, the body of Lord Zhou was found in an alley in Nanshi. ”
Lin Zihao was shocked and said, "What! Where is the corpse now!"
Qin Changzhi replied: "It's still in the alley, and I have arranged for people to block the scene." ”
"Okay, take us there!"
The nameless alleys of Nanshi, the alleys and alleys are guarded by fast catchers, although the scene is protected, but the people who can't resist the good things are watching and talking nearby.
In the alley, Lin Zihao squatted on the ground, he lifted the white cloth covering the corpse, and a familiar face came into view.
Zhou Zhiang had a weird smile on his whole face, he was no longer breathing, this death seemed familiar to Lin Zihao.
He pressed the back of his hand to his cheek, the body was not yet cold, and it seemed that he had died shortly after the conversation with him.
Xing Zhuoyuan looked around on the side, the alleys were clean, far away from the downtown area, very remote, with stone walls on both sides and no doors.
Quickly investigated the surroundings and asked people nearby, but no one witnessed why Zhou Zhiang died.
Walking up to Lin Zihao, he said, "My lord, looking at him like this, it seems to be very similar to the death of the person who took the immortal medicine. ”
Lin Zihao closed the white cloth and stood up and said, "Yes, we just searched for the immortal medicine of the Qian Mansion, and it is not uncommon for there to be other places in Qiu City." ”
"In that case, Lord Zhou also died because of taking medicine. ”
"I can't make a conclusion, the body is taken back to Yizhuang for examination, this matter is very strange, just now Zhou Zhiang talked to me and I couldn't see that he had taken medicine. ”
"Maybe he was killed like the Qian family. ”
"It's very likely, let's talk about it after the corpse is examined, and all the properties of the Qian family will be carefully and strictly inspected downstairs, so that the immortal medicine will completely disappear in Qiu City. ”
"The subordinate officer receives the order!"
Xing Zhuoyuan received the order and left here, and Lin Zihao did not stay, and his former colleagues turned into white bones at this moment, and he felt uncomfortable.
He did not go back to the yamen, but walked towards Governor Zhang's mansion with footwork.
In the bedroom of Governor Zhang, Governor Zhang, who was lying on the bed, looked very calm, and he was not shocked by the news brought by Lin Zihao.
Because this result was not unexpected, after hearing about the Qian Mansion, he had already guessed Zhou Zhiang's fate.
He sighed softly: "Zhou Zhiang is a person I value very much, but unfortunately he has not resisted his greedy desire. ”
Lin Zihao replied: "Yes, he is a talent, it's a pity." ”
"You go back first, I think I will be able to go back to the yamen in two days. ”
"Don't worry, my lord, it's important to take care of your body. ”
Governor Zhang waved his hand and said, "Your cousin Lin Qingchen seems to be preparing to leave." '
"Yes, I asked him to treat you, and he was ready to leave after the treatment. ”
"You have to thank him well, just leave, don't force these people to stay, the temper of these people in the rivers and lakes is also very strange. ”
"Xia Guan understands!"
After the two talked, Lin Zihao walked out of Zhang's mansion.
It was getting late, and Lin Qingchen had already repaired the roof broken by Bai Duoduo in the Lin Mansion, and at this time he was sitting in the courtyard with two disciples and three of them.
Meditation and pranayama to calm down and concentrate on the mind, this is what Lin Qingchen handed them first.
Different from practicing according to the exercises, the exercises on Lin Qingchen's body are mainly based on internal force, so letting them concentrate first and feeling the flow of their own breath is the foundation of cultivation.
Of course, there is also the cultivation of the body, the muscles, bones and muscles are the basis of qi refining, and without a strong body, it is impossible to withstand the huge breath running in the muscles and veins.
After pranayama, Lin Qingchen said: "Apprentices, we will leave tomorrow to meet the Taoist temple." ”
Li Qingze said: "Master, have you finished everything?"
Lin Qingchen said: "It's all done." ”
Although he said this, he knew very well in his heart that his coming to Qiu Cheng to treat Governor Zhang's mansion had been completed.
But he didn't catch the mastermind behind the sale of immortal medicine, and the Black Lotus Sect that Bai Duoduo said was also a fog, and the body of the man in black disappeared last night.
However, it is the responsibility of the government to arrest the prisoners, and he can't help much, so it's time to leave Qiu City.
When he went back, he had to go to the library in the view to find the root cause and antidote of this mysterious Gu poison, and the frustration brought to him by this Gu poison was really not light.
Wu Haowei lowered his head on the side and didn't speak, and when he saw him like this, Lin Qingchen asked, "Haowei, what's wrong with you?"
Wu Haowei raised his head and said, "It's okay Master, it's just that I stayed in the city for two days, and I felt a little uncomfortable leaving suddenly." ”
Lin Qingchen chuckled: "You have been in the view for a few days, this is the first time to leave and it is normal to feel this way, we should go back after leaving for a few days this time, and we will take you out for a walk in the future." ”
Hearing this, Wu Haowei's face became happy, and he said, "Thank you, Master." ”
Lin Qingchen stood up and said, "Okay, you go back to the room and pack your things, let's leave tomorrow." ”
The two disciples left in response.
Early the next morning, outside the Lin Mansion, Lin Qingchen and the two disciples had already packed their things and led the two horses to prepare to leave Qiu City.
Lin Zihao and Lin Xingyi saw each other off outside the door, because Governor Zhang had just woken up, and Qiu Cheng still had something to deal with, Lin Xingyi stayed to help Lin Zihao not leave.
Lin Zihao arched his hand and said: "Qingchen, I've been bothering you for the past few days, I should have been able to entertain you, but I can't get away from my busy business, and after I am busy with these things, you must come to Qiu Cheng again, and let me entertain you well." ”
Lin Qingchen replied: "The general judge does not have to be polite, treating the disease and saving people is a matter of the poor. ”
He bowed to the two of them and said, "Lord Tongju, Lord County Order, Poor Dao farewell." ”
Wu Haowei and Li Qingze also made a gesture, and after saying goodbye to the two, the master and apprentice rode away.
Watching the three of them drift away, Lin Zihao said, "Have you put things on?"
Lin Xingyi replied: "I have already put the silver ticket on their horse, and I didn't let them find it." ”
"Well, according to his temperament in a few days, he won't accept it if he gives it to him directly, so it's best that this cousin has such a ability, and he will be closer to him in the future, let's go, there are still many things to do. ”
The two of them stopped looking at the figures of the three of them and turned back to the Lin Mansion.
After riding a horse and running for two hours, Lin Qingchen and the two disciples returned to Lingxiao Temple.
Li Qingze and Wu Haowei both returned to their rooms with their luggage.
Lin Qingchen was also packing his luggage in his room, but when he was packing his luggage, he found something that did not belong to them.
He looked at the five hundred taels of silver tickets in his hand, and recalled that before he set off to leave Qiu City, the horses were brought out by the people of the Lin Mansion, and it seemed that they had quietly put them in his luggage.
Although there is a lot of money, there is no fluctuation in his heart, this Gu poison is not unraveled by him, and this money naturally cannot be left, although he doesn't care about these worldly things, but the Taoist temple also needs money to operate, and he put the silver ticket aside.
Thinking of Qiu Cheng's affairs in his heart, the figure of the lark suddenly appeared in his mind, he walked to the bookcase and took out a pen and paper, preparing to write down what happened to Qiu Cheng one by one and send it to the lark.
