The bank of the Xijiang River is located in the south of Zhou Wenguo, where Gongjiang City is located. Gongjiang City is one of the five major metropolises of Zhou Wenguo, where the scenery is beautiful and the fields are fertile.

However, Fu Lin Pavilion is located in the north of Zhou Wenguo, and if you take a carriage from Fu Lin Pavilion to Gongjiang City, it will take more than a full month.

Jiang Huai walked out of the dense forest of Fu Lin Pavilion, he looked at the empty road around him, and his heart was quite heroic.

"The first time I go out to see the world, I must have a good experience of customs and people. Jiang Huai stepped on this drizzle, and there was a hint of interest in his eyes.

He touched the storage bag, and the whole person turned into a streamer and disappeared at the end of the road.

The grass on both sides of the road is sparse, and the spring rain is misty at the moment, and the ordinary households are sheltering from the light rain at home.

Jiang Huai walked for a long time before he saw a village, and the smoke curling in the village evoked Jiang Huai's memories.

"Childhood memories are like this smoke, rising but not staying. Jiang Huai tidied up his body, he didn't protect his body with his true qi, and let the rain fall.

So at this time, Jiang Huai's hair was wet and messy, and his robe was full of rain traces, he walked to the gate of the village, and watched the children inside playing in the rain, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously showed a smile.

Patting the placket of his clothes, Jiang Huai walked into the village. The village is not large, the roads are a little muddy, and the houses in the village are simple wooden houses with some thatched roofs. Only a few houses have blue bricks and stone tiles.

The rain is light and the moss is beautiful.

Jiang Huai's arrival made the people of the village look sideways, and some children even stopped playing and looked at each other.

Looking at the eyes around him, Jiang Huai had some doubts in his heart, he put them in his heart and began to wander around the village.

Everywhere Jiang Huai went, the villagers avoided Jiang Huai as if they were hiding from the plague, and even some villagers hurriedly brought their children home, with vigilance in their eyes.

Jiang Huai walked and looked at it, and before he knew it, he had walked into the depths of the village. There was a large playground in the depths of the village, and the playground was overgrown with weeds, and Jiang Huai had not yet come closer. Suddenly, an old man appeared, the old man was in rags, his eyes were cloudy, he stared at Jiang Huai tightly, his expression was indifferent.

Seeing this, Jiang Huai's doubts were even stronger, and he was silent and looked at the playground carefully.

After a long time, seeing that Jiang Huai refused to leave, the old man spoke: "Housheng, this is not the place where you stay, where did you come from, where do you go back." ”

The voice is hoarse, like iron and stone, piercing the ears and eyes.

Jiang Huai had a doubt in his heart that he had reached the fixed point, this location was not too far from the foot of the mountain of Fu Lin Pavilion, if it was an ordinary person, it could be reached in two days.

But there is something strange about the customs here, every villager has a wariness in their eyes, and everyone is as cold as an iceberg, and they don't want to communicate with people.

"Could it be that this is the custom of this village?" Jiang Huai shook his head, he listened to this person's words, turned around and was about to leave.

Seeing Jiang Huai leaving, the old man breathed a sigh of relief, and he followed Jiang Huai closely, as if he wanted to witness Jiang Huai leave.

Jiang Huai took the old man's strange behavior to heart, and he slowly left the village and returned the same way.

Jiang Huai looked at everyone heartily, and he found that everyone seemed to be relieved when they saw him leave.

When Jiang Huai came to the gate of the village, Jiang Huai's eyes shrank slightly, and he saw a group of people on the road from the village to the outside world. In the middle of this group of people is a young man, the young man is in medium health, and he has some helplessness and some persistence on his face at the moment.

The young man was dressed in acceptable clothes, and a jade pendant was hung around his waist, and the jade pendant was engraved with the word "catch".

The rest of the group were all villagers of the village, and the villagers were in shabby clothes, and they stopped the young man and tried to drive him out.

Seeing this, the old man behind Jiang Huai panicked, and he hurriedly trotted to the gate of the village and instructed the villagers to drive the young man out.

Suddenly a thunderbolt flashed in the sky, and the rain was even more urgent.

Jiang Huai walked aside with interest, and with a sweep of his spiritual sense, he found that there was some air flow in the young man's body.

Compared to the true qi, this air flow is weak and powerless, and it is not to be said.

"Is this internal force?" Jiang Huai remembered the rumor that ordinary martial artists had internal force in their bodies, which could destroy trees with one hand and break boulders with one hand.

Na Yu, who was competing with the villagers, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he looked at the young man at the entrance of the village who was wearing a black brocade robe, smiling, delicate-looking, and with long hair and a random shawl, and immediately opened his mouth and said: "Which little brother, come quickly, I have something to look for you." ”

Jiang Huai was stunned, the smile on the corner of his mouth was even better, he pretended not to know anything, and hurriedly ran over, "Big brother, what are you looking for me." ”

The young man was annoyed by these villagers, and he turned his internal strength, shaking the surrounding villagers away, his face was not red, and he said breathlessly: "Where are you from, is there anything different in this village?"

The old man led the somewhat panicked villagers to take a few steps back, leaving Jiang Huai and the young man outside, his cloudy eyes showing a vigilant look.

Jiang Huai's face was slightly shy: "I am from a small village in the north of this village, and I have been walking for two days and two nights before I came here. There's nothing strange about it, except that there's a dilapidated playground that's normal. ”

The young man slowly digested Jiang Huai's words, and a smile appeared on his face: "Little brother, what is your name, my name is Cheng Ke, I am the catcher of Chaonan City, there have been several bad murders in this village, and I am responsible for investigating." ”

After Cheng Cao finished speaking, he shook his head and sighed: "Why don't these Diao people let me in, saying that the murder has been executed, and the case has been closed." ”

Jiang Huai was a little interested in his heart, he walked in this world for the first time, and his heart was fresh: "My name is Jiang Huai, you are a fast catcher, they are just villagers, how dare you stop you?"

Cheng Cao looked at those villagers and smiled bitterly: "This case was settled by the county magistrate of Chaonancheng, and they have the dictate of the county magistrate, so they can not let me in." ”

Jiang Huai nodded clearly, and a wry smile appeared on his face: "I was also kicked out by him, so I can't help you." Jiang Huai pointed to the old man with cloudy eyes and said helplessly.

"Besides, the county master said that the case was closed, why did you come here?" Jiang Huai asked rhetorically.

"Don't you know, although this case is closed, but there are many doubts, as a fast arrester in Chaonan City, how can I let this matter go. If I don't know, it's fine, if I do, I will definitely return the truth to the world!" Cheng Cao said loudly.

"Are you Bao Zheng?, but you don't have a crescent moon on your forehead. Jiang Huai muttered, he looked at Cheng Ke's hopeful eyes, and stretched out his thumb to praise: "Yes, but we can't get in now, unless you shake them away again like you did just now." ”
