Sending away the joyful round ball, Ning Caichen locked the manor, threw the bookcase into the carriage, dragged a dog's tail grass on the side of the road, held it in his mouth, and led the carriage to walk in the streets of Jinhua.

The more than ten taels of silver that he had sold for horses, plus a few taels of silver left over from the past, were emptied by him in the market. I bought some dry food for the journey, bought two sets of new clothes for my parents, and a package full of all kinds of street food, which was prepared for Xiaoqian, and Ning Caichen planned to train her to be an elegant foodie.

Just as he was about to walk out of the street, the road ahead was suddenly blocked by a crowd, and individuals could still pass through, but the carriage could not move an inch.

"Brother, what's going on here, why is it blocked in a blink of an eye. Coming to a man who was selling flower drums at a stall, Ning Caichen asked with a smile.

Seeing his friendly smile, the man subconsciously explained: "When it was almost dawn, I set up a stall here and saw eight or nine men with steel knives and medicine hoes on their waists and hips, selling ginseng here, but because the asking price was too high, the business was not done together.

Later, about half an hour later, the street fighter took some splashes on the street, fell in love with these ginseng, and said that he wanted to buy them for the governor's birthday, but he thought that the price of the participants was too high. The two sides argued for a long time, and finally quarreled with each other, and it became like this. ”

Ning Caichen nodded, glanced at the crowded street, frowned, and said, "Brother, apart from this street, is there any other street where you can get to the city gate?"

"Yes, but you have to go back and go around to another market. As he spoke, he suddenly saw a group of soldiers wearing military uniforms and holding iron guns, and sighed: "You don't have to take a detour, this dispute is about to end." ”

"Minister Liu, help!" Seeing the brown-clothed official walking in front of the soldiers, a person who fell to the ground and howled miserably showed joy on his face and hurriedly called for help.

Hearing the call, the envoy Liu took a look at it and said in surprise: "Zhao Pengshan? What's the matter today, you actually capsized in the gutter." ”

When an official came, the visitors stopped their fists and feet, watching this scene with vigilance and concern. And Zhao Pengshan got up smoothly, pointed to a stout man who beat him and said: "Seeing that they are selling ginseng here, I wanted to buy some ginseng and send it to the governor, but unexpectedly, these people saw that I could be bullied, asked for the price indiscriminately, and scolded and scolded if they didn't agree with each other. ”

"Lord Governor, sell the ginseng ......" Minister Liu's eyes lit up, and he said to the soldiers behind him: "All of them are arrested, and they are in prison pending trial." ”

"You can't do this, that splash is reversed black and white, nothing is wrong, you can't bend the law for personal gain!" Although the visitors were powerful in their fists and feet, they still threw rat traps against a team of soldiers with iron guns, and they did not dare to force them.

The soldiers ignored their pleadings, took out the ropes they had with them, and prepared to lock them up.

Faced with this situation, the faces of the visitors were full of anger, and five or six of them even touched their hands on their waist knives and looked at the leader seriously.

Since ancient times, chivalry has been forbidden to use martial arts, but that is talking about strong martial arts, they are only rough martial arts, and have families and relatives, if there is a conflict with officials, the whole family is afraid of being implicated.

Because of this, a look of despair flashed in the eyes of the leading visitor, and he stood erect in place, almost crushing his silver teeth, but he did not dare to resist.

Seeing a scene of traitors in charge, oppressing the darkness of goodness, Ning Caichen's eyes narrowed slightly, soothing the trembling of the emperor's pen in his arms.

"Scholar, if you can, go find the ball and rescue these visitors. In the jade pendant, Xiao Qian said suddenly.

Ning Caichen led the carriage and turned to the manor: "You can't get used to this kind of thing where evil officials are like tigers and ruin people's lives?"

"There's a reason for that. Xiao Qian sighed lightly: "Seeing the look of despair in the eyes of the leading visitor, I remembered myself before I met you." For this kind of person who is about to slide into the abyss, we can pull a hand, just pull a hand, and we can have a good fate. ”

Ning Caichen was silent for a moment, and said lightly: "On the other hand, what is the reason?

"In the previous days in the Netherworld, in order to let me and Xiaoqing devour the human essence, Grandma brought it back to her, so she taught us the Huaimu Yin Silkworm Skill, which can devour spiritual flesh and refine it into crystals. This kind of poisonous kung fu can instantly suck people into dry bones, and in the same way, it can also nibble ginseng into powder.

Although the spirit crystal obtained by devouring it is not as effective as the refined elixir, it is better than being simple and fast. Of course, the most important thing is that neither of us can do alchemy, otherwise, if we buy some ginseng spirit grass and refine the elixir, we can practice for a long time. ”

"Huaimu Yin Silkworm Gong ...... Is it a very powerful exercise?" "For some reason, Ning Caichen suddenly remembered the Northern Shengong in Jin Yong's martial arts.

"It's just an ordinary demon spell. Xiao Qian said seriously: "Even if you don't practice this demon method, the yin ghost can eat away at the essence of human beings and devour human flesh and blood, the only difference is that this demon method can convert the devouring energy into spirit crystals." ”

During the conversation, Ning Caichen had already led the horse back to the front of the manor, opened the side door, brought the carriage in, and placed it in the stable.

Going out alone, Ning Caichen asked passers-by about the address of Luo Tuiguan's house in this mansion, followed the directions all the way, and finally stopped in front of a luxurious mansion.

I saw that the door of this house was painted red, and the ceremony was dignified. Two huge stone lions stand in front of the door, one stepping on the ball, the other holding silver, majestic.

On both sides of the gate, there stood a row of scarlet-clad soldiers, huge and round, much stronger than the soldiers of the ordinary county town. is obviously the mansion of a seven-rank magistrate, but it is better than the ordinary yamen.

"Who are you looking for?" saw someone coming, and a housekeeper on the left asked seriously. Looking at the shabby dressed scholar, there was no arrogance in his expression.

Ning Caichen reported Luo Fu's name, and a family member quickly ran into the mansion, and after a while, the huge body of the round ball appeared.

"Brother Ning, haven't you returned to your hometown, why did you suddenly come to my house?" Luo Fu kindly put his arm on Ning Caichen's shoulder, and was about to lead him to the mansion.

Ning Caichen grabbed his arm and whispered in his ear: "Ball, what might you have said in the local prison?"

Luo Fu looked at him suspiciously: "What's wrong, did you commit a crime?"

"You've just done something. Ning Caichen tapped him on the back and explained the cause and effect of the matter.

"It's all a trivial matter, isn't it just a few visitors? Let's go, our brothers go there and fish them out. Luo Fu smiled disapprerovingly, and walked with Ning Caichen on his shoulders: "But I said brother, it's a good thing that you have a good heart, but these days, there are countless such things, you don't have to be that bad good person, otherwise you can be tired to death." ”

Ning Caichen has never been a person who is a bad person, in addition to the compassion in his heart, saving these visitors is for the future source of ginseng and the emperor's pen to punish evil and promote good, and punish evil on behalf of the heavens.

With the ginseng source, the spirit crystal extracted by Xiao Qian can be used to quickly impact the realm. And punishing evil and promoting good is to be able to obtain the gift of the emperor's pen, and opening up the meridians is far easier than cultivating by oneself.

"I am also a scholar, and if I don't save him when I die, I am afraid that I will violate the teachings of the saints. The reason for this is that Ning Caichen will not confess frankly, and replied with a smile.

When they came to the local prison, a man in a light cyan official uniform warmly received the two, and through a conversation with Ning Caichen, he learned that he was the prison in charge of the local prison, a low-level official who had not entered the rank.

Just as the prison was in Luofu, in the prison, the visitors who were locked together were locked to the torture pillar, and the street fighter Zhao Pengshan smiled and held a soldering iron, constantly shaking in front of the face of the leader of the participants. And Minister Liu sat on the chair brought by the jailer for a long time, smiling and touching the 'filial piety' in his sleeve.

"You're horizontal, you're horizontal! Relying on a little kung fu, you dare to beat Lao Tzu, it's really an old birthday star who eats arsenic, and he is tired of living. Zhao Pengshan touched the puffiness on his face and said with a sinister smile.

"Phew!" the leader of the visitors spat in his face: "Officials collude with traitors and oppress civilians, you people will be punished." ”

The smile on Minister Liu's face faded, and he shouted at Zhao Pengshan: "Don't talk nonsense, Lao Tzu is very busy, and I don't have time to accompany you here to show off your might." ”

Zhao Pengshan nodded yes, turned his head and squinted at the leader of the participants: "I see how long you can be hard-mouthed, this soldering iron will not be merciful." ”

After saying a word, he slammed the red-hot soldering iron in his hand on the chest of the leader of the visitors.

"Shhh...... Ah!" With a puff of white smoke and the smell of roasted meat, the leader of the visitors was covered with pain, his eyes were red, and his body trembled in the screams.

"Brute, brute!" Listening to his scream, the other eight visitors were stunned and roared angrily.

"What can a beast do?" Zhao Pengshan crushed the soldering iron back and forth: "This is the best era for bad people, the worst era for good people, you are not beasts, you are good people, but now you have to suffer from me here!"

The leader of the visitors gritted his teeth and shouted angrily: "The heavens are unfair, the heavens are unfair. ”

"It is not the sky that is unjust, but the hearts of some people, this era!" At this moment, a cold and cold voice suddenly came from outside the prison. Everyone looked up, only to see the prison master in prison, who was following behind the two young men in fear, and it was one of the white-robed scholars who spoke.

"Meet your lord!" Minister Liu didn't dare to sit down at this time, so he hurriedly stood up and bowed to the prison.

When the eyes of the prison like a spring breeze turned to him, they immediately froze: "Minister Liu, you come and tell the official, what is going on, and who is the splashing skin with the soldering iron?!"
