Chapter 54: Servant of the People

The little fat man looked up and saw that the Jin brothers had led a large group of people over. If you look closely, it is the group of people that the little fat man has seen in the yamen. Walking at the front of the crowd was Xiao and Xiao Zong. Xiao Hetong looked around, only to see the little fat man and a half-dead person lying on the ground, but did not see the perpetrator of the murder that the Jin brothers said.

"Zhu Xiaopang, Jin Buyan said that you were beaten by two thugs just now, and now what about them?" Xiao Hetong asked, he never thought that the two vicious thugs described by the Jin brothers would be beaten away by the little fat man.

"Ah, I guess they heard that the chief catcher was coming, and they were so frightened that they fled. "If you tell the truth, I'm afraid it's a bit appalling, and people won't necessarily believe it. The little fat man deliberately told a lie, and slapped Mr. Xiao on the head of a fart without any edge.

Thousands of wears, but sycophants don't wear. When Mr. Xiao heard this, he was very useful. He laughed, reached out and patted the little fat man on the shoulder, and said, "Young man, you are not bad." was able to rescue an innocent victim with one enemy and two enemies. ”

When the little fat man heard Xiao Hetong talk about the victim, he remembered that there was a bleeding person lying on the ground. The little fat man turned his head to look at the ground, and saw that Xu Ruochen's face was also very pale except that his clothes had been stained red with blood, his eyes were closed, and he didn't know when, he had passed out.

"Xiao Yang, Xiao Zhao, you two come here, quickly carry him to the Rejuvenation Hall for Dr. Zhou to see. Mr. Xiao ordered two catchers casually, and came over.

Yang Zhutou and Zhao Zhutou led the order, and the two of them walked one after the other, carrying the unconscious Xu Ruochen and walking briskly towards the Huichun Hall. Mr. Xiao looked at Yang. Zhao and the others carried Xu Ruochen away, and said to the rest of the catchers: "Let's go and chase that thug, maybe we can catch up!"

After chasing all the way, there was no trace of the two beasts of the Ba family, and they were chased to the gate of Dongcheng. When I arrived at the city gate, I saw two guards armed with spears, rationally checking the passing merchants.

Xiao and the guard at the same door knew him, so he asked loudly: "Li Bing, did you find two suspicious men just now, escaping from the city?" ”

The man named Li Bing gave Xiao Hetong a salute and said, "Back to Mr. Xiao's head, I just saw that the hall master of the Flying Eagle Gang, Ba Tianbao, and a man running out of the city. I asked him why he was going, and he said to leave his friends. I didn't dig any deeper, so I let them out of town. ”

When the little fat man heard this, he secretly screamed in his heart that it was a pity. After hearing this, Mr. Xiao was a little discouraged. Originally, he came over with so many catchers, and was going to rely on the large number of people to take the two beasts of the Ba family to the prefect to make meritorious contributions. Now that Li Bing said that they had escaped from the city, he knew that it would be useless to chase them any longer. In desperation, he had to lead the crowd to catch the head and walk towards the rejuvenation hall.

Huichun Hall is located in Dongcheng District, under the leadership of Mr. Xiao, this group of people caught fast, and soon arrived at Huichun Hall. When the little fat man came to Lianyun City before, he had taken a few pills in the Rejuvenation Hall. He knew that in this rejuvenation hall, a doctor named Zhou Ji was sitting in the hall. Dr. Zhou is in his 60s this year, and he has a childish face. It is said that when he was ten years old, he followed his father from east to west to treat people. In the past 50 years, Dr. Zhou has pulled many people back from the brink of death. In Lianyun City, Dr. Zhou is known as a miracle doctor. Dr. Zhou is not only a skilled doctor, but also a noble medical ethics, and when he encounters those who are sick but look down on the doctor, Dr. Zhou will often treat them for free and give them medicines. Dr. Zhou's benevolence and benevolence are deeply admired by the people of Lianyun City.

In Dr. Zhou's pharmacy, the little fat man saw Xu Ruochen, who had woken up. Dr. Zhou told them that if there was anything important, they should hurry up and ask. The patient is now very weak and needs to rest. Xiao Hetong said that he understood, and only brought the little fat man and the Jin brothers in to visit Xu Ruochen. Because, only the three of them stepped forward to rescue Xu Ruochen at the most critical moment.

Xu Ruochen now looks very sluggish, and his face is pale and scary, which is probably caused by excessive blood loss. The eyelids are always drooping, as if they will fall asleep at any time.

In order to save valuable time, Mr. Xiao went directly to the topic and asked, "Gang Master Xu, what happened today, what happened?"

Xu Ruochen is one of the four major gangs in Lianyun City, Xiao Hetong, who shoulders the comfort of Lianyun City, is familiar with Xu Ruochen, Xu Ruochen frowned slightly, thought for a while, and then told the ins and outs of the matter. It turned out that yesterday at the Bijia Tofu Brain Shop, Xu Ruochen slapped Ba Tianbao, and Ba Tianbao held a grudge. It happened that his second brother Ba Tianhu came to see him, and Ba Tianbao told Ba Tianhu about his grievances. When Ba Tianhu heard this, he was furious. So, the two brothers discussed to assassinate Xu Ruochen. Xu Ruochen took his two younger brothers and met the two beasts of the Ba family on the street, and he heard Ba Tianbao say that it was his second brother Ba Tianhu. At the time, I didn't mention it much. Who knows, Naba Tianhu suddenly attacked, and stabbed Xu Ruochen in the lower abdomen with a sword. Ba Tianhu's cultivation was originally higher than Xu Ruochen, and in addition, it was a sneak attack, and Xu Ruochen was injured and could not fight at all. The two little brothers desperately blocked the two beasts of the Ba family, and Xu Ruochen found a chance to escape. His two younger brothers were no match for the two beasts of the Ba family at all, and they soon died under their swords. The two beasts of the Ba family were chasing after Xu Ruochen closely, and they were about to catch up with him. At this critical juncture, a public servant of the people, a hero who acted bravely, and a strong man who was not afraid of rape jumped out. He risked his life with one enemy and two enemies, and with his unyielding fighting spirit, he scared away the two beasts of the Ba family and saved the innocent people. He is, the fat catcher in front of him.

After listening to Xu Ruochen's singing praises, the little fat man was a little embarrassed. Now that things are clear, Xiao Hetong told Xu Ruochen to rest and recuperate with peace of mind, and left the Rejuvenation Hall with the little fat man and others.

Soon, the bodies of Xu Ruochen's two younger brothers were also found. They lay in pools of blood, their eyes wide open, as if they were dead. When the prefect heard about this, he also rushed over. When he saw the horrific scene, he was furious. In broad daylight, there was such a homicide case in his own jurisdiction, and if it was reported, the emperor would definitely blame himself for poor law and order. So, the prefect issued an example, drew a picture to arrest the two beasts of the Ba family, and instructed Xiao He to arrest the two beasts of the Ba family within a month. Although Xiao Hetong complained bitterly in his heart, who made himself the chief catcher of Lianyun Mansion, the prefect's order could not be disobeyed, so he had to take it hard. As for whether he will be able to arrest the two beasts of the Ba family within a month, he is not sure.

On the same day, the prefect tried to prevent similar mobs from attacking the people again. The patrol of Lianyun City has been strengthened, and the inspection of merchants coming and going at the city gate has been intensified. In this way, the work of crowd hunting is even harder. Although it was miserable, no one dared to complain. Because the prefect's face was so heavy that it seemed to be dripping water, who wouldn't dare to touch his moldy head at this time. This day was spent in such fear. The next morning, the prefect convened the crowd in the lobby and made a summary of yesterday's events. In view of Zhu Xiaopang's courage in the face of righteousness, he was not afraid of personal safety and bravely saved innocent people. The prefect decided to award the little fat man a pennant with the words "Servant of the People" written on it, and gave him a bonus of two taels of silver. The little fat man is not interested in pennants, however, he heard that there is a bonus. Suddenly, my heart blossomed. In these days when you can't make ends meet, you have to be careful about what you eat. If it weren't for the one or two pieces of silver that Jin Buyan gave him yesterday, the little fat man probably would really have to peck at the wind and drink the dew. Now that he heard that there was a bonus, how could the little fat man not laugh.

As soon as the fat uncle came, he became a celebrity in front of the prefect. Everyone is only envious, but no one is jealous. Because they already knew that the little fat man was an immortal cultivator from the Immortal Sword Villa. And they are fast, at most, they are just a little more agile than ordinary people. When encountering ordinary petty thieves and petty thieves, they can still deal with them, but when they encounter immortal cultivators like the two beasts of the Ba family, they are helpless. Xiao Hetong also had a pleasant face towards the little fat man, because the prefect instructed him to arrest the two beasts of the Ba family for a month. Xiao Hetong knew in his heart that with his ability, let alone three months, I am afraid that he would not be able to get the two beasts of the Ba family in three years. Fortunately, he heard Xu Ruochen say yesterday that this Zhu Xiaopang has good skills, and he defeated the two beasts of the Ba family with one enemy and two enemies. This Zhu Xiaopang is like a nectar in a year of great drought, and Xiao Hetong pinned all his expectations on him. I hope he can show his skills and capture the two beasts of the Ba family. Therefore, Xiao Hetong's attitude towards the little fat man is simply closer than his own father.

The little fat man and the Jin brothers walked to the street to inspect, and the little fat man was very curious, what is the relationship between the prefect and his master? The little fat man said the question in his heart, fortunately, this Jin Buyan heard the prefect mention this matter, so he told the little fat man about the process of the prefect and the little fat man's master Qiao Huacheng. It turned out that ten years ago, when the prefect was not yet an official, that year, when he went to Beijing to take the exam, he encountered a group of wandering demon sect members robbing him. Not only did they rob the prefect of all his money, but they also wanted to kill him. At this critical moment, Qiao Huacheng appeared. As soon as Qiao Huacheng made a move, he sent away the group of extremely vicious demonic people, saved the life of the prefect and returned his silver. Later, after the prefect was the top student in high school and was appointed as the prefect of Lianyun City by the imperial court, he also made a special trip to Xianjian Villa to visit Qiao Huacheng. Qiao Huacheng saw that the prefect was brilliant, different from ordinary officials, and the two admired each other very much, so they often exchanged letters. Because, Xianjian Villa does not want to be crowned with the reputation of befriending the government. Qiao Huacheng never went to Xianjian Villa later, and he and Qiao Huacheng usually met in Lianyun City. Because of this, the little fat man has not heard of this.
