On the long street, countless torches were blazing, and if you looked from outside the city, the sky must have burned red. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Looking into the sky with the official office, not to mention how terrible the fire was, the heat wave seemed to be blowing here with a breeze.

After all, this long street is only a quarter of an hour's walk away from the official office, although it is separated by many houses, but sitting in the small room in the backyard of the official office, you can still faintly hear the noise of some people and horses.

Zhuge Hui was dressed as a scribe at the moment, not only wearing a green scarf and Confucian clothes, but the folding fan engraved with his name in his hand was also replaced by landscapes, flowers and birds at this moment. If Zhuge Hui didn't say it, I'm afraid no one would think that this middle-aged scribe would be a member of the martial arts family's mansion.

Sitting at the table, Zhuge Hui had a green tea in front of him, and on both sides of the crooked lid, two wisps of white smoke were emitting, as if announcing how hot the tea in his belly was.

Zhuge Hui was not looking at the adult in front of him at this moment, and it was not easy to be able to judge the same table with one party, so how could Zhuge Hui dare to look directly into the other party's eyes?

"Wei Sheng is here for Brother Situ this time?" The adult picked up the teacup and took a sip of hot tea, and the hot tea flowed into his throat, perhaps because there was no one around, so although the "grunt" sound was small, it was very clear in the ears of Zhuge Hui, who had practiced martial arts.

When the teacup returned to the table, Zhuge Hui raised his head slightly, his eyes stayed on the adult's beautiful beard, and nodded: "It's really ashamed to visit late at night and disturb the adult's rest." It's just that I am ordered by the Lord, and I dare not slack off a little, and I hope that the adults will not blame it. ”

"There's no need to accuse you, you have something to say, right? Brother Situ couldn't visit in person this time, so it's quite a hassle to come here, right?"

The adult stroked his long beard, leaned forward slightly, and whispered, "Isn't it for the gold theft and murder case last night?"

Zhuge Hui nodded in response: "Exactly." ”

"This case, isn't Zhan Zhutou already ready to close the case?That gang of thieves is also from the rivers and lakes, but it's a pity that they escaped quite quickly......" The adult's voice stopped abruptly, because he didn't dare to exceed the etiquette, and it was inconvenient for Zhuge Hui to move his gaze two points higher at this moment to observe the adult's current expression.

There was almost a momentary pause, but it made Zhuge Hui feel a little uneasy.

"Could it be that the circumstances of the case have changed? What is the relationship between this person who stole the gold of Sikong Shaoxia and killed more than 30 people who gathered in the inn and the Situ family?"

"Big ...... Why do you say that?"

The uneasiness in Zhuge Hui's heart turned out to be true at this moment, it seemed that this adult had already known Zhan Yunqin's actions and already had a position......

"Lord Wen. Stabilize his mind, Zhuge Hui knew that the official mansion could no longer be relied on at this moment, raised his head to meet the pair of eagle eyes, and was about to persuade the adult with his "three-inch incorruptible tongue", but unexpectedly, a figure had appeared behind the adult, and at this moment he was slowly approaching this side.

This person's appearance Zhuge Hui is extremely familiar, and he has dealt with this person in Jiangning City for many years. It's just that Zhuge Hui has never seen him wearing a Taoist robe, and the kind of fairy wind and dao bones on his face made Zhuge Hui have a name in his heart.

He ...... He should still be in retreat and cultivation......"

"Brother Chunwu, why are you ......?"

Zhuge Hui was very suspicious of whether there was something wrong with his eyes at this moment, not only did he see the wrong person, but he also saw the wrong expression of this adult at the moment, how could this kind of flattery appear on the face of the judge all the way?

"This friend and brother haven't seen each other for many years, if you can't meet him, I'm afraid there will be no such opportunity in the future. ”

The man smiled slightly, like the smile on the face of the old gentleman in the Sanqing Temple. At this time, Zhuge Hui no longer had the slightest doubt in his heart, this person was Chu Fanxiu, the chief disciple of the Kunlun Sect and the acting head of the sect, known as the "Taidao Zhenren".

Chu Fan's self-cultivation is listed in Bai Xiaosheng's "Who's Who in the Rivers and Lakes", and he has the essence of the Chu family's Aotian swordsmanship and the Kunlun three stunts, and is quite famous in the rivers and lakes, but he has always been low-key, and since the death of his wife, he has been dedicated to the Tao, and since then he has jumped into the "top ten" list. The head of Kunlun, Ziji Zhenren, was seriously ill three years ago, and Chu Fanxiu became the acting head of the sect as a disciple of Ziji Zhenren. Last year, there were rumors in the rivers and lakes that Ziji Zhenren had less than a year of life left, and since Chu Fanxiu took charge of Kunlun, the prestige of the Kunlun faction has not decreased but increased, as long as Ziji Zhenren dies in the crane immortal, Chu Fanxiu will naturally inherit the throne of Kunlun.

Zhuge Hui only noticed at this moment that this Chu Fanxiu, who was ninety percent similar to his younger brother Chu Fanxuan, was already wearing the token of the head of the Kunlun faction - the colorful ring on the thumb of his left hand.

"Taidao Zhenren returned to his hometown this time, why didn't he go back to Chu Mansion to rest first, but came to disturb Lord Ping's rest?"

Zhuge Hui had a relationship with Chu Fanxiu more than ten years ago, Zhuge Hui, who had not yet joined the Situ family at that time, wanted to join the Chu family with his talent, but was humiliated by Chu Fanxiu, who was still the head of the Chu family, with a set of simple formations - if he was defeated under a set of simple formations, it could be regarded as humiliation.

If it weren't for the old housekeeper in Situ's mansion who saw that he had a bit of talent and held a grudge against the Chu family, Zhuge Hui, who is known as "Little Zhuge today", would probably have been completely wiped out by Chu Fanxiu.

However, after completing his studies, Zhuge Hui, who was in the Situ family, did not have a chance to make Chu Fanxiu regret it. When Zhuge Hui reappeared in the rivers and lakes, Chu Fanxiu, the head of the Chu family, had long been forgotten, and at that time, there was only one Kunlun disciple in the rivers and lakes who was nicknamed "Taidao Zhenren".

"Yes, Poor Dao hasn't seen a dog for about three years, and when Mr. Zhuge said this, Poor Dao really misses it. It's just that...... Mr. Zhuge can bother Zhaoping for the affairs of the Situ family, why can't I, as a brother, spend the night here?"

Chu Fan finished speaking, and before Zhuge Hui, who exploded like a firecracker in his heart, reacted, the adult slapped his head and apologized to Zhuge Hui with a smile: "Negligence, negligence, I didn't explain it clearly to Wei Sheng, I and Brother Chunwu have been friends since childhood, and after their respective crowns, they married Jin Lan, but he is dedicated to martial arts, and I am obsessed with fame, because the world does not know the relationship between me and Brother Chunwu." ”

Chu Fanxiu laughed, he had lost his immortal demeanor: "If it weren't for Zhaoping's Silu Jiangning over the years, he hadn't been the slightest biased towards the Chu family? My younger brother doesn't know how many times he has complained like me over the years, but you are still so iron-faced and selfless." ”

At this moment, this adult stroked his long beard with his hand, shook his head, but said with a smile in his mouth: "Brother Chunwen, this court is not as good as the rivers and lakes, my Great Song Dynasty is a country ruled by law, and I mention that the Criminal Division has the responsibility of criminal law and justice, how can I bend the law for personal gain? Besides, the imperial court has adopted an attitude of non-interference in the rivers and lakes, if I favor one side, this may not be a good thing for the Chu family, right?"

Speaking of this, the adult suddenly showed an expression of sudden realization, and the bitterness at the corner of his mouth disappeared: "Brother Chunwu, there are still guests here, don't make these jokes again, it's still important now." ”

He turned to Zhuge Hui, who was in a state of confusion and was about to be at a loss, and asked, "Wei Sheng, what is the matter with the change in the case you just said?" (To be continued.) )
