As soon as Ye Xiaotian saw Hua Zhixian came back, he immediately went forward to meet him, and cast his hopeful eyes on Su Xuntian's face first, but seeing Su Xuntian looking listless and dying, the hope in Ye Xiaotian's heart disappeared immediately.
Ye Xiaotian said: "My lord, but... can't he be cured?"
Hua Qingfeng shook his head and sighed.
Su Xuntian consciously concealed the truth and felt ashamed of this pre-appointed elder brother, so he said unhappily: "I'm going to see my sister." After speaking, he lowered his head and walked away. If he hadn't detoxified the poison, this kind of reaction was really normal, so Ye Xiaotian didn't think much about it, just sighed in disappointment.
Seeing this, Hua Qingfeng comforted Ye Xiaotian and said: "You don't have to worry too much, I have consulted Miss Zhan in detail in this county, and learned that this Gu poison is called crazy Gu, which is actually not very appropriate, it just occasionally makes people Emotional out of control, it's not particularly serious, it's like... a drunken madness... Cough, don't think too much, just let nature take its course."
Ye Xiaotian nodded, because he was depressed, he didn't say much. Huazhi County said: "When I took Xuntian to visit Miss Zhan, I saw many people outside the hall. What happened?"
Ye Xiaotian told him about Xu Lin's case of beating someone to death in the street, Huazhi County was furious when he heard the words, and said sharply: "The sky is bright and the sky is clear, the little hooligan dares to beat someone to death, it's really lawless, has the murderer been arrested and brought to justice? "
Ye Xiaotian said: "The murderer left the house immediately after beating someone to death. He must have known that he had caused a catastrophe. The lower officials sent someone to arrest him, but they haven't been caught yet..."
Hua Zhixian said: "Catch it! Tomorrow, we will draw pictures and post pictures everywhere, and we must arrest these murderers and bring justice to the people, and give Huxian a blue sky!"
Ye Xiaotian saw his bosom friend for the first time, and said happily: "The county lord is right, I guess, the murderer hid in Qi Mu's house in all likelihood, if he can't be caught tomorrow, I will take someone to Qi's house to search for him." Search."
Hua Zhixian's face changed immediately, and he said in amazement: "Qi Mu? What does this matter have to do with Qi Mu?"
Ye Xiaotian explained: "I heard that Xu Lin is Qi Mu's subordinate, so he is very arrogant in the public."
Huazhi County's complexion changed several times, and he said in a deep voice: "The law and order in this county has always been good, but now there is a quarrel between neighbors, and then people are beaten to death, there must be something strange in it. We can't preconceive it, just listen to one side of the story, we must be cautious, cautious , be more careful."
Ye Xiaotian was puzzled and said: "The county lord means..."
The magistrate Hua said: "This county will entrust Meng County Cheng to handle this matter. This matter is very difficult, so don't get meddled."
Ye Xiaotian was silent for a while, then replied: "Your officer knows."
As soon as Ye Xiaotian heard it, he knew that Huazhi County was afraid of Qi Mu, so he didn't tell Huazhi County that he had sent people to arrest people in the pit. He thought that when I arrest the murderer tomorrow, I will directly ask the Guo family to beat the drum and complain. The murderer is on the case, even if you want to calm down, what can you do
Seeing that Ye Xiaotian listened to the persuasion, Huazhi County secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said: "You have worked hard today, because of this maniacal laughter, even your voice is hoarse, so go back and rest, the county will send someone to send you some throat moisteners later. things, you nourish them."
At this time, Xu Lin and Brother Xiang, who killed people in the county town and then went to Qingshangou to cause a bloody case, just returned to the county town. They are discussing to donate the tiger skin to Uncle Qi for a while. Where to play, suddenly heard someone calling: "Brother Xu?"
Xu Lin looked up, and recognized him as a naughty young man who lived in the same alley as him. The older brother who followed him on weekdays was considered a little brother. Because he was only thirteen or fourteen years old, he couldn't work for Qi Mu, otherwise when he joined Qi Mu, Xu Lin would take him there too.
Seeing that he was an acquaintance, Xu Lin smiled and said, "You boy, where are you going to fool around?"
The rogue boy approached him and said with a secretive expression: "Brother, where have you been? Did the government go to your house to look for you?"
Xu Lin was startled, and said in surprise, "What is the government looking for me for?"
The rogue boy said: "You still don't know? Fatty Guo asked you to beat him to death!"
Xu Lin's attack was ruthless, but at that time Guo Lifeng just vomited blood, Xu Lin didn't expect him to hit so hard, and couldn't help being a little dazed. When Brother Xiang and others saw him, they laughed at him and said, "Brother Xu, you were so courageous at first, you were afraid of being a fool! Don't forget, you are now Lord Qi's man, and the government is just going through the motions if you think about it, and dare to take you away. How about it?"
"laugh!"
Xu Lin sneered disdainfully, glanced at them, and said proudly: "What am I afraid of? I just didn't expect that Fatty Guo could not help beating so much, so I was a little surprised."
The poppy boy said: "Also, what's more, then the policeman will go to your house to find you, because you are not here, and they had an argument with your sister, and then they got into a fight."
Xu Lin said angrily: "A fight? Who started a fight with my sister?"
The rogue boy said: "It's the leader of Zhou Ban, that muffled gourd who can't fart on three legs, hehe! He made your sister scold you bloody, and became angry from embarrassment, so he shook hands with your sister."
Xu Lin said: "How is my sister?"
The rogue boy said: "Of course it's fine, who will let her suffer. When I came out just now, she was majestically scolding the second girl of the Liu family, saying it was because of some hairpin."
Xu Lin felt a little guilty when he heard that, the second girl of the Liu family was a little ambiguous with him, two days ago he promised to give the second girl Liu a piece of jewelry, but because he was short of money, in order to please the second girl, he gave the previous girl a piece of jewelry. A hairpin that was given to my sister was stolen and given to Miss Liu Er, but I didn't want to be discovered by my sister.
Brother Xiang has always been interested in Xu Xiaoyu. Now when he heard the police and Miss Xiaoyu fight, he cursed and said: "When did this Huxian official become so kind? Brother Xu, I'm not a brother, I'm picking trouble. You are also a famous number one person in Hu County, your sister was beaten, can you pretend to be deaf and dumb? I can't bear it."
The other rogues booed together: "That's right, brother Xu, we can't let this matter go like this, otherwise, where will you put your brother Xu's face?"
As soon as Xu Lin heard it, he said, "Of course I can't bear it! Isn't it that bastard surnamed Zhou? Brothers, they are idle too. Let's teach him a lesson!"
A group of rogues immediately turned to Zhou Siyu's home, the pimples on the boy's face were so excited that he hurriedly followed to watch the excitement...
※※※
Ye Xiaotian naturally had no way of knowing these things. At night, he drank the throat-nourishing and lung-nourishing medicine sent by the Huazhi County, and laughed a few times in the middle of the night for no reason. My heart is much more relaxed.
Ye Xiaotian packed up and went out, just like the situation a few days ago, Li Yuncong and Su Xuntian stood on the left and right, but this time there was another tycoon. As soon as Luo Daheng saw Ye Xiaotian, he immediately offered a large ingot worth fifty taels of ingot like a treasure, and said with a smile: "Brother, I will offer you a tael of silver, which is a lot of money. Should we choose a store location?"
Ye Xiaotian still remembered those police officers who squatted in the pit to arrest Xu Lin last night, and he didn't know if they had completed their mission, so how could they care about fooling around with the tycoon. He collected the money and said to the tycoon: "There are still some things that have not been taken care of in the yamen. If you are not in a hurry, you can go to the yamen with me first. If you are in a hurry, you can go find a few places you like first, and I will be with you later." Go finalize."
The tycoon said straightforwardly: "There is still a month left, don't worry, don't worry, I'll go to the yamen with elder brother first."
The four of them went to the front street to have breakfast first. This time Ye Xiaotian learned his lesson, so he didn’t mention the matter of treating guests anymore. The tycoon was a man from all over the world. Then he came to the county government office.
As soon as Ye Xiaotian entered the county government office, he saw Ma Hui and others yawning and standing listlessly outside the gate of the ceremony. As soon as they saw Ye Xiaotian arriving, they immediately came to greet him. Ye Xiaotian asked: "Have you caught Xu Lin?"
Ma Hui shook his head with a bitter face: "My lord, the little ones stayed on guard all night, but Xu Lin never came back."
Ye Xiaotian frowned, and said: "Didn't return all night? Could it be that he absconded in fear of crime?"
Ma Hui sneered and said: "My lord, if he really absconded out of fear of crime, that would be fine, at least it means that our county government still has some authority, I'm just afraid... I have inquired about it, this Xu Lin eats, drinks, prostitutes and gambles. Liben often doesn't come home drunk, so it's hard to say that he didn't stay in that brothel last night."
Ye Xiaotian nodded, and said: "All of you go back to rest, catch up on your sleep first, as long as he doesn't escape, then he will be arrested, and I will send some other people to look for him."
Ma Hui and the others agreed and dispersed. Ye Xiaotian said to Su Xuntian: "Since you have been with me, I have never seen you do anything serious. First, you escaped from the Huangdaxianling disaster with wine escape, and then Xiaodun, and escaped to go to the countryside again, this time it is your turn anyway, take a few people to investigate Xu Lin's whereabouts, and arrest him immediately if you see him."
Su Xuntian thought: "My brother-in-law told you not to care about this matter yesterday, do you really regard yourself as the history of Huxian County?"
However, Su Xuntian didn't always listen to his brother-in-law's words. He wanted to be Ye Xiaotian's brother-in-law now, but he had to curry favor with his brother-in-law. Besides, he didn't think the consequences of catching a ruffian were too serious, so he agreed without hesitation, ordered a few arrests, and walked out the door in a wobble.
The tycoon was carrying his schoolbag, and looked at Ye Xiaotian anxiously: "Brother, there is nothing else, can we go?"
Ye Xiaotian said to Xu Yuncong: "Go together?"
Xu Yuncong said with a straight face: "Listen to your lord's orders!"
"Then let's go!" The tycoon said happily, carrying his schoolbag and bouncing towards the gate of the county government...
Qingshangou, Qingshanling, among the green fields, there are two new graves.
Hua Yunfei knelt in front of the grave, tears had dried up.
The ashes of the paper money were blown by the wind, like black butterflies, flying in the air.
Hua Yunfei poured the last bit of residual wine in the flagon on the ground in front of him, pulled out the short knife from his waist, pressed his five fingers on the ground, and suddenly cut it with force. Blood was dripping, and a piece of finger was left on the ground, but Hua Yunfei didn't seem to feel any pain at all, and he didn't even frown.
After breaking his oath, he took out a piece of white cloth, slowly wrapped it around the little finger of his palm, put the bloody saber back into the scabbard, picked up his hunting bow, and ran towards Huxian County full of hatred.
