At 3 p.m., someone suddenly knocked on the door. Chen went to open it, only to see a constable. The man said that the main culprit in the previous case had been found and now the case was to be closed, so he asked the Jiang family to go to the county government office.
"Did they catch the person?" Chen exclaimed. She had been thinking about this matter all the time.
The constable had a conflicted look on his face. He said, "Arresting? Well, it's not really arresting. Someone threw Wei Kangping's body in front of the county government office."
Last time, the two criminals actually asked them to arrest them... Anyway, this case was strange in every way, but the magistrate remained calm and closed the case.
Chen's voice alarmed everyone in the family.
Jiang Cheng came out and heard that Wei Kangping had been arrested, so he immediately went to the county government office.
When Jiang Yunzhu came out, Shen Fengming and Yang Sheng also came out. She looked at the two of them, wondering if this matter had anything to do with them.
"Dad, I'll go with you." She said to Jiang Cheng. She wanted to go to the county government office to see what was going on.
"Okay." Jiang Cheng harnessed the carriage.
Soon they arrived at the gate of the county government office and saw a person already standing there, it was Liu.
"Auntie, you are here too." Jiang Yunzhu greeted her.
"Hmm." Liu responded absentmindedly and looked towards the county government office.
Jiang Yunzhu knew that she must be feeling uneasy, so she did not disturb her. She stood there with Jiang Cheng, waiting to be summoned by County Magistrate Meng.
At this time, two more people came on the street. The one in front had a full beard and red eyes. It was Li Biaotou. He was much thinner than the last time he saw him. The strong and sturdy man now looked unusually tired.
Next to him was a middle-aged man with a greasy mustache. He tried hard to catch up with Li Biaotou while jogging and said flatteringly, "Li Biaotou, please continue to rent the shop to me. I promise that I will never default on the rent again this time.
You know, my mother is ill, and the medicine alone costs a lot of money every day. I have three children at home, and my wife is not in good health. I really have no money, so... "
"Get out! If you don't get out, I will beat you till your teeth are all over the ground, believe it or not." Li Biaotou raised his big fist, pretending to hit the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man fell to his knees with a plop, begging with tears and snot, "Li Biaotou, I am really in trouble at home, otherwise I wouldn't beg you like this.
That shop is the life of my family. If you take it back, we will all be in trouble..."
Li Biaotou really wanted to kick him to death. He had believed his lies and rented the shop to him at such a low price. He also told him that if it was inconvenient for his family, he could just pay the rent in advance.
As a result, someone told him a few days ago that his mother was not sick at all.
"Will you get out of here or not? Otherwise I will really hit you." Li Biaotou said hatefully, clenching his fists until they made a clattering sound.
Seeing that he seemed to be serious, Gray didn't dare to cry anymore. He covered his face with his sleeves and looked at Li Biaotou carefully.
Li Biaotou ignored him and continued to head towards the county government office.
After he walked away, Gray spat on the ground, rolled his eyes, stood up and walked towards the street behind.
"Captain Li, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Cheng asked in surprise when he saw Li Biaotou's appearance. It had only been a while since they last saw him, so how could he look so haggard
When Li Yan was mentioned, he became angry and anxious. Li Yan had been frightened that time and had not been in good health. He had a cough a few days ago and was coughing every day. His family had invited doctors everywhere to see him, even doctors in Luzhou, but his condition had not improved.
Some people said that Li Yan might have tuberculosis, and some even said that he should prepare for his funeral...
Li Biaotou wanted to kill Wei Kangping.
He looked at Jiang Cheng and said reluctantly, "It's okay." He had only met Jiang Cheng twice, so there was no point in telling him this.
Jiang Cheng, however, remembered that he had sold the mule to him at a low price, and felt guilty about it.
At this time, a constable came out of the county government office, and Magistrate Meng summoned them in.
Magistrate Meng sat in the hall and asked Liu and others to identify whether the person under the white cloth was Wei Kangping.
The constable lifted the white cloth, revealing the corpse underneath.
It was a cold winter day and Wei Kangping had been dead for several days, but his body had not decayed and still retained the appearance he had before his death.
His face was completely distorted by pain, his eyes were wide open, and one could still see the despair and fear he felt before his death.
"Ah!" Liu was startled when she suddenly saw such a face. But she quickly calmed down, bit her lip and stared at the face, as if she wanted to pour out all the emotions in her heart.
Jiang Cheng was also surprised.
However, Li Biaotou spat fiercely at Wei Kangping's body and said, "He deserves a good death!"
The three confirmed that the body was Wei Kangping.
Magistrate Meng pronounced the verdict in court and the lawsuit was settled.
After everyone left the county government office, they all had different reactions. Jiang Cheng was happy, thinking that evil would be punished. Liu was relieved and a little more determined. Only Biaotou Li had an unhappy expression on his face.
He bowed to Jiang Cheng and others and was about to leave.
Just then, Gray came over with an old man. The old man had white hair and a youthful face, and was wearing a brand new Taoist robe. He looked quite otherworldly.
"Captain Li, I heard that your young master is sick. Guess who I met just now?" Gray said to Captain Li excitedly.
"How dare you come back?" Li Biaotou pretended to hit him.
Gray said quickly, "It's Wu Yixian, Wu Yixian is traveling here!"
A person's reputation is like a tree's shadow. Li Biaotou has been looking for doctors these days, and of course he has heard of Wu Yixian's great name. It is said that he has extraordinary medical skills and can revive the dead. He also wanted to ask him to help Li Yan treat his illness, but Wu Yixian's whereabouts were elusive, and he was powerless.
Li Biaotou's heart was pounding. Could it be that God really had mercy on his family
He looked at the old man in Taoist attire.
The old man in Taoist attire glanced at him but said nothing.
Legend has it that Wu Yixian had a very strange personality.
Jiang Yunzhu had already boarded the mule cart. When she heard the three words "Wu Yixian", she was stunned, looked over there, and then smiled.
"Are you really Doctor Wu?" Li Biaotou asked the pretending old man carefully.
"I came here while traveling and met Shopkeeper Ge by chance, so I came to take a look." said the old man in Taoist attire.
Li Biaotou's hands were shaking with excitement. He hurriedly said, "Wu Yixian, please save my son, he is still young..."
"The consultation will cost five hundred taels of silver," the old man in Taoist attire interrupted him.
Five hundred taels is not a small amount, but in order to save his son...
Li Baotou was about to agree when a clear female voice suddenly said, "It is said that Wu Yixian will not cure you for a thousand taels of silver. How come you only want five hundred taels?"
It was Jiang Yunzhu. She got off the mule cart again. This "Doctor Wu" was obviously a liar.
The old man in Taoist attire snorted, "Okay, then I'll pay a huge sum of money. Without it, there is no cure." Having said that, he turned around and was about to leave.
Gray quickly grabbed him and said, "Doctor Wu, please don't leave. We have something to discuss."
The Taoist-clad old man then stopped and looked at Li Biaotou.
A thousand taels of gold... Li Biao's head was buzzing. Where could he find a thousand taels of gold
Gray said again, "Dr. Wu, please don't be angry. For my sake, please don't make things difficult for Li Biaotou." Then he said to Li Biaotou, "Li Biaotou, please talk to Dr. Wu. It's not easy for you either."
Li Biaotou seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and was about to step forward.
"Captain Li, is this really the Medical Immortal Wu? You have to think it over carefully. The county government lobby is right next to us, so why not ask the county magistrate to help make a judgment. If it is really the Medical Immortal Wu, I think the county magistrate will be happy too." Jiang Yunzhu said.
She knew that Li Biaotou was so anxious that he lost his mind, otherwise he would not have believed this liar so easily.
Sure enough, when Li Biaotou heard her words, he was suddenly shocked. Yes, he was just too happy and didn't think about whether the old man was a fake.
He looked at the old man suspiciously.
Judging from the old man's appearance, he seems to be a master, but is it possible for a master to be destined to be with someone like Gray
Escort Captain Li immediately noticed something was wrong and looked at Gray sharply.
Ge Rui hated Jiang Yunzhu so much. The matter was about to be settled. He glared at Jiang Yunzhu and said, "You are a woman, what do you know?"
"I don't understand, so I asked Li Biaotou to ask the county magistrate." Jiang Yunzhu said.
The old man, who had been acting very aloof, got furious upon hearing this and said, "Who do you think I am? I won't treat you even if you offer me thousands or tens of thousands of gold." As he said that, he walked towards the street next to him.
"Captain Li, you!" Gray followed the old man with a hateful look on his face.
"Captain Li, be careful, don't let them run away." Jiang Yunzhu reminded.
Li Biaotou reacted and shouted, "Stop!"
The old man in Taoist attire walked faster, looking obviously guilty. Now everyone knew that there was something wrong with him.
Li Biaotou chased after him, almost vomiting blood in anger. He really thought his son was saved, but who would have thought...
Jiang Cheng now understood what was going on and immediately went over to help.
He helped to stop them from that side, and Li Escort immediately grabbed the old man in Taoist clothes and Ge Rui in one hand each and sent them directly to the yamen.
Magistrate Meng had not returned to the back hall yet, so the trial began immediately.
The old man started out saying that he was Wu Yixian, but later, when he was speechless due to the questions, he said that he was indeed "Wu Yixian". His surname was Wu and his name was Yixian, so isn't that "Wu Yixian"
Is there anyone with this name? It's just an excuse.
Only after County Magistrate Meng beat him with a stick did he admit that he often used the name of Wu Yixian to swindle people out of money, and this time he went to Li Biaotou because of Ge Rui.
Both he and Gray were thrown into jail.
The case was not complicated, but it took a lot of time. When Jiang Cheng and others came out of the county government office, they found that the sky outside was gloomy and it was snowing.
"Thank you for the reminder, young lady. I was almost cheated by them." Li Escort Leader thanked Jiang Yunzhu, and then thanked Jiang Cheng for helping him catch the man.
Jiang Cheng also knew that his child was sick, and he was anxious, so he waved his hands quickly.
He still remembered Li Yan, who looked like a good kid.
"He has been in poor health since he was born." Li Biaotou clenched his fist.
Everyone separated, and the snow in the sky became more and more fluttering. Jiang Cheng asked Jiang Yunzhu to sit tight, and he wanted to drive back quickly. Wuling County is mountainous, and when the snow is heavy, the mountain roads will be slippery and difficult to walk.
"I know, Dad, be careful." Jiang Yunzhu said.
The father and daughter left the city soon, and after hurrying back, they finally returned safely and saw the familiar village and the man.
At this moment, the sky and the earth were all white, but at the intersection of Changshi Village, there was a man. He was dressed in a white coat, and seemed to blend into the world, but he also had a sense of loneliness like a lone wolf, as if he was the only one in the world.
The phoenix eyes and red lips, the eyes are pitch black and the lips are bright red, as if they are the only two colors in the world.
Jiang Yunzhu was stunned for a moment. It was Shen Fengming. It was the first time she saw him wearing white. When he wore black, he was always as cold as a knife, making people dare not look directly at him. But when he wore white, he was like snow on the top of a mountain. Although it was still cold, his overly handsome appearance made people feel so amazed that they didn't want to look away.
Shen Fengming also saw her. His glass-like eyes moved and he rode his horse towards her.
When he moved, Jiang Yunzhu came back to her senses. Then she couldn't help but look at him twice. She always liked to appreciate beautiful women.
Looking at it again, it is still as beautiful as a picture.
Shen Fengming had already come close to her. Jiang Yunzhu smiled, "Mr. Shen."
"It's snowing." Shen Fengming raised the corners of his eyes slightly, and his voice was as tinkling as a cold spring.
"Yeah." Jiang Yunzhu got off the car and turned around to admire the rare snow scene. It had snowed twice before, but neither was heavy. This time, everything was covered in silver, and it felt like thousands of pear trees were in bloom.
