Chapter 141: Traces of the Ancient Tomb (1)
After Jiang Yiyang took Mu Qing and Mu Rong to worship his father, he took a two-day detour to Xixia City, deliberately bypassing the Nine Lotus Valley, otherwise it would only be a day's journey from Xingzhu Sea to Xixia City, and then the group settled at the City Gate Inn.
This trip back to the sea of stars to worship, Mu Qing and Mu Rong are happy with the beautiful scenery of the sea of stars, they decided to build a village next to the sea of stars, spent a lot of money to hire the groom of the Xixia Shenma Hall, made a special trip to pick up Hong Bufan of the star faction to build, according to Hong Bufan's unique concept, the bunker outside the village is heavy, and also drains the lake of the sea of stars to build a suspension bridge, the backyard of Dazhuang wrapped three acres of farmland and the grave of his parents, and the cemetery was rebuilt into a mourning hall, etc., the construction period takes more than half a year, Jiang Yiyang bought a mansion in the city. On this day, Mu Qing and Mu Rong commanded the child servants in the house and painted the decoration. You Yongshou and Hong Bufan helped at the Dazhuang construction site in the Xingzhu Sea, and Jian Yongyan took care of the family in the mansion. Jiang Yiyang wandered alone on the streets of the city, and when he met his acquaintances, Aunt Qi and Uncle Hu, he had to be enthusiastic.
Walking to the entrance of the yamen, there were dozens of people around the notice board to discuss, Jiang Yiyang stepped forward to probe, and saw a portrait of a man, with a full beard and a very large nose, which looked like a cow's nose. Under the portrait, there is a reward notice: There is a flower thief, who entered the house at night and robbed the people's daughter, this thief's name is Fang Qiguang, who committed many felonies of rape and win, resisted arrest and escaped, and should be beheaded according to the law. Whoever captures this person will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver!
An old man said: "I heard that this flower thief Fang Qiguang is very good at martial arts, and Mr. Cai can't catch him in person." ”
"Even the chief head catcher can't help him, what can we ordinary people do. ”
"Old Chen, your girl is white, hurry up and go home to guard. A few days ago, the daughter of the Liu family stole it from this thief, and she has not been found yet. ”
At this time, Yizhu quickly walked out and shouted: "What nonsense, we always arrest the head and handle a lot of cases, how can this little thief need to ask him to go out in person." It's just that there have been a lot of miscellaneous things in the yamen recently, and a reward is hereby offered for arrest. ”
Jiang Yiyang was surprised: "This is a flower thief, and the government is actually willing to offer a heavy reward?" ”
The catcher looked at him dressed in silk, presumably a child of a big family in the city, and said politely: "This son intends to receive the reward?"
Jiang Yiyang said: "There are such scum in this area of the stars, how can it be unreasonable. ”
The catcher smiled and said, "I see that the son is young, don't be harmed by this thief." ”
Jiang Yiyang said: "The official is laughing, the sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, it is incumbent on you to punish the traitor and eliminate the evil, I don't know if the official has any clues?"
Everyone saw that he was young, but he was bored and came here to make fun. He nodded quickly and waved his hand, "Childe, please come with me." After leading Jiang Yiyang into the inner hall of the yamen, Mr. Cai saw that his subordinates had brought in a junior student, and he was puzzled, and hurriedly said: "Who is this son?"
Xiao Yu quickly waved his hand and said, "This son, please arrest Fang Qiguang." Zhao Jiang Yiyang introduced: "This is our chief catcher, Cai Hongfeng." ”
Jiang Yiyang said: "Mr. Cai catches his head,"
Cai Hongfeng saw that he was calm and steady, and he was a practitioner, but he didn't know the depth, so he took the initiative to hand it over with a cup of tea, and said, "Son, please use tea." Jiang Yiyang knew his intentions, how could there be a gift of tea on the head of the head? It was clear that he wanted to try him, so he reached out to take it with his internal force, and when the two of them joined hands, they matched the force, Cai Hongfeng only felt that an internal force was transmitted from his fingers to his arm, and when he was numb, the teacup shattered and fell to the ground, and the tea splashed all over his body, and he staggered back.
Cai Hongfeng looked stunned, and said secretly: "Such a strong internal strength, this person must be a master, and he can't be neglected." Hurriedly said, "Haven't asked the name of the young man yet?"
Jiang Yiyang said "Ahh In the Lower Star Sect, Jiang Yiyang. ”
Cai Hongfeng exclaimed: "You...... You are Jiang Yiyang of the Star Sect?!"
Jiang Yiyang said secretly: "Could it be that he knows me?" and said: "Exactly." ”
Cai Hongfeng bowed down and said: "I have long admired the prestige of Jiang Daxia. Then he waved his hand at Xiao Yu Kuai and said, "Quick, serve good wine and good food!"
Jiang Yiyang pondered: "I have admired my prestige for a long time, hey, interesting ......"
The two of them sat down and drank wine, and Cai Hongfeng told him about his deeds of exterminating the Japanese in the Dongyue area, and he only heard about it, and the rumors increased a little bit more.
Cai Hongfeng said with a smile: "I didn't expect to have the honor to drink with Jiang Daxia......"
Jiang Yiyang said: "It's serious, Mr. Cai catches his head." Let's get down to business. ”
Cai Hongfeng nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I forgot about it." Fang Qiguang's gang has committed many crimes in this area, and he stole the daughter of Lord Chu's family seven days ago, which can keep us busy. After overnight investigation, I learned that he was hiding in the old city of Fengping, sent forty people to arrest him, only five people came back, and then I went in person, the thief's martial arts are not weak, he escaped twice, the old city of Fengping is no longer inhabited, and he has set traps everywhere......" said and opened the leg of his trousers, revealing a purple-black wound, and said: "The trap is also poisoned, if I don't escape in time, I'm afraid it will also be his way." Later, 500 troops were sent to search and arrest, nearly 100 people were injured by the trap, but fortunately no one was injured, and he could not be found after searching, so he offered a heavy reward, hoping that someone would find clues. It's really God's eyes, this time with Jiang Daxia's help, it must be like catching him like catching a chicken. ”
Jiang Yiyang nodded, and said in his heart: "It turned out that the daughter of the prefect Chu was taken captive, so how could he be willing to offer a heavy reward." He said, "Okay, I'll go, but it's ......."
Cai Hongfeng said: "It's okay for Jiang Daxia to say it directly. ”
Jiang Yiyang said: "Since it is the daughter of Lord Chu's family, after the rescue, how about letting Lord Chu make a small inscription with a golden plaque?"
Cai Hongfeng was surprised: "The inscription is gold-lettered, Jiang Daxia wants to open a store for business?"
Jiang Yiyang sneered and said, "Star Sect!"
Cai Hongfeng smiled: "Okay, this matter is on me!"
Then Jiang Yiyang went back to the mansion to get the sword, Mu Qing and Mu Rong learned that they had to follow, and the three of them came to the old city of Fengping for a long time, only to see a ruin and overgrown grass. There was a plague in the old city of Fengping fifty years ago, and the survivors of the town had already moved to Xixia Town and the main city of Xixia.
The three of them turned over and dismounted, tied the reins of the horses under the big tree on the side, and Jiang Yiyang said: "I will visit first, there are many traps, listen to my orders." ”
Mu Rong said: "Lang Jun, this is deep in the clouds, and the sky is getting dark, or we will come back tomorrow." ”
Jiang Yiyang shook his head and said, "I'm afraid, I heard that ghosts eat those women who don't listen to Lang Jun." ”
Mu Rong held Mu Qing's hand tightly and said in amazement: "How can Rong'er not listen to Lang Jun's words, sister......"
Mu Qing sneered: "Lang Jun scared you, silly sister." ”
Jiang Yiyang sneered, jumped two steps and flew up to the ruined houses in the old city, searching from room to room. The old city of Fengping is not big, and it is uninhabited all year round, and it has long been dilapidated. There were no traps found in the old city, and there were occasional traps in the weeds, Jiang Yiyang pondered: "This flower thief still knows how to trap, if the capable person does not take the right path, he will definitely harm the world." Seeing that there was no one around, he asked Mu Qing and Mu Rong to search together to see if they could find clues.
After a while, Mu Qing pointed to the weeds that had been trampled and said, "Lang Jun, there are a lot of footprints heading to the northwest. The three of them followed the footprints, along the grassy slopes, through the bushes, into the bushes, and as they went, the trees grew denser and denser, until they were obscured from the daylight. The three of them walked out for more than ten zhang, there was silence in the forest, and there was no sound, Mu Rong said softly: "Lang Jun, let's go back, I'm so scared of ......"
Mu Qing also felt a little gloomy, and said: "Lang Jun, go back, come back tomorrow morning." ”
Jiang Yiyang looked around and said, "With Lang Jun here, don't be afraid." ”
The three of them took a few steps forward, and in the haze, they saw a stone tablet standing underground, and when they looked down, they saw four words engraved on the tablet: "Outsiders stop." ”
Mu Qing said: "Further forward is someone else's Zhuangzi?"
Jiang Yiyang became curious and said, "Let's go, let's see whose Zhuangzi built this ghost place." ”
