"There are many bandits, and most of the hiding places are mountains." Sun Laocai had a straight expression, seemingly telling the truth, "The vast mountains, it is difficult to find these bandits who are familiar with the mountains~"

"Shopkeeper Sun has done his best." An old fortune shook his head and sighed, and drank a glass of shochu sullenly.

"Bandits have always been a disaster for our county." Another old man followed the words of the two and looked at Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng saw that everyone was pretending to be confused, so he said directly: "The mountain bandits are the altar's captors, how many of them have a share?"

"What do you mean, my lord?" Sun Laocai's expression didn't change at all, and he still looked upright, "Your lord means that we will keep bandits in captivity?"

"Isn't that clear to all of you?" Zhang Feng picked up his wine glass and took a sip, "But since what shopkeeper Sun said is tax, let's talk about tax. Let me talk about the regulations. The [-]% tax mentioned earlier , This is gone. And several people also need to pay [-]% of the tax every year, so I, Zhang Feng, can forget about the bandits."

"Maybe Mr. Zhang didn't understand." Sun Laocai laughed, "Even if we have an affair with bandits, that's something. But if there is a shortage of money and food, we will be charged taxes so that the guards in the mansion can't eat enough. Can you still be the master when there is turmoil? When the court blames you, can you take this responsibility?"

"Shopkeeper Sun's meaning?" Zhang Feng looked at him, "Can you be the master?"

Sun Laocai closed his eyes a little, smiled, picked up the tea on the table, and sipped it carefully, without looking at Zhang Feng, nor answering this question.

But looking at him like this, yes. '

Seeing the rest of the old money, it was also a lazy high-quality tea, as if to put pressure on the new county magistrate.

Let Zhang Feng wait honestly, sit first, and let Zhang Feng know that without them, Zhang Feng would be unable to move an inch here!

Zhang Feng saw their posture of forcing the palace, put down his wine glass and said: "Since I am the magistrate of this county, how can I not be the master?"

"Oh?" Sun Laocai glanced at Zhang Feng in surprise, "Master Zhang must think clearly~"

Zhang Feng looked at Sun Laocai with a smile that was not a smile, deflecting the topic from left to right, vaguely threatening, and pulled out the saber beside him, and slashed towards Sun Laocai's neck suddenly!

Suddenly, there was a crisp 'crack', and the blood splashed, splashing all the wine and food on the table.

A large human head rolled along the edge of the table and fell to the feet of everyone!

"Master Zhang" and the veterans also stared wide-eyed, looking at the headless corpse lying on the table, feeling the warm blood on their faces, their teeth chattered up and down, unable to utter a complete sentence, let alone refute.

They didn't expect that the new county magistrate would kill people when he said they would kill!

"I'll repeat it again."

Zhang Feng held the saber in his hand, and wiped off the blood on the sword blade on the silk clothes of a trembling old man beside him, "Starting from today, I, Zhang Feng, will be the master of Qiguang County."

Chapter 2: The ins and outs of the case are resolved!

Tick ​​—

Viscous blood slid down the edge of the table.

Lao Cai at the table closed his eyes in fear, and could clearly feel the traces of the sword's pressing on his body.

Among them, the three veterans did not dare to move, as if acquiescing.

Zhang Feng wiped his saber, and looked at them, "Since you have no objections, from today onwards, some of you will help make up for all the government's operating funds."

When Zhang Feng said this, he looked at Sun Laocai's body, "Just as the shopkeeper Sun said, the people in the shopkeeper's house are from our Qiguang County. Of course the county government supports it. The people from the Qiguang County government , is it an outsider? The shopkeepers don’t support it anymore? Doesn’t this reason seem unreasonable?”

"Yes." An old fortune nodded hurriedly, first of all representing support.

Anyway, no matter what, let's leave this place of right and wrong first.

In order not to say a word badly, he was beheaded by the new county magistrate.

'His appointment document may be fake' and Lao Cai felt that Zhang Feng didn't look like a local parent official.

Now, if it wasn't for the badge on Zhang Feng's side, and the fact that the previous county magistrate was indeed dead, a friend who was an official in the city would have reminded him that a new county magistrate was coming.

He thought Zhang Feng was like a wanted criminal posted on the wall of a city gate!

But Zhang Feng didn't care what they thought.

At this time, seeing that everyone agreed, Zhang Feng asked the maid outside the room to call Zhang Er and the others through the door, and brought pens and ink.

The maid obeyed her orders from beginning to end and didn't come in.

But when Zhang Ersi came in with pens and ink, they were attracted by the bloody scene in front of them, and drew out their swords warily, and surrounded Zhang Feng.

For a while, the swords were raised again, listening to the harsh sound of 'clang'.

It seemed to touch the nerves of the four veterans, making them even more frightened and afraid to look directly at the surrounding area.

"My lord!" Zhang Er stood in front of Zhang Feng, sizing up the four veterans.

Judging from his posture, it seemed that Zhang Feng ordered the four of them to fall to the ground.

But when he looked at Sun Laocai's planed neck and broken spine, he also lamented that his lord's martial arts skills are not shallow, and he is a good swordsman.It's just that there's nothing strange about it.

It is because most of the literati in this ghost world, although they are not as good as the masters who specialize in martial arts and Taoism, they still have a little kung fu for self-defense.

rustle-

Zhang Feng took the pen and ink, but wrote a simple contract, writing all the conditions agreed by the four old moneyers before.

When Zhang Er saw it, he took the food on the table to the side and moved the corpse away.

"Don't say I don't believe you."

Zhang Feng put away his pen and ink, glanced at the contract, "It's just that this matter is of great importance, and black and white letters are much better than verbal promises."

Seeing that the contract was clear, Zhang Feng pushed it in front of the table of the four veterans, "It is also written in black and white, and several people signed it. If in the future, they will be obedient and obedient, they will be short of money for their own county government. Don't blame me for Zhang Feng's disregard." Today's friendship at the banquet will be a killer."

"Master Zhang said so!" The four veterans hurriedly saluted, picked up their brushes one by one, and wrote their names on the contract.

Wait until the moment of fingerprinting.

Zhang Feng pointed to the wet blood on the table, "The painting is stained with blood, and the shopkeeper Dang Sun also agreed."

"Hey" the four veterans nodded again, resisting their fear, stained their fingers with blood, and pressed on the contract.

Zhang Feng took it and looked at them, "Several shopkeepers go back and prepare, I won't send it away."

"Master Xie" the four of them breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Zhang Feng let go, and they all left together.

And over time.

Around eleven o'clock in the evening.

The master who was sleeping in the dungeon suddenly opened his eyes and looked around, as if he had some nightmare.

But when he felt the warmth in the prison cell at this moment, and saw the warden dozing off on the grass in front of him, who was always guarding the stove, he suddenly remembered the past and knew that he was saved.

"Master." Seeing the master waking up, the warden forced himself to cheer up, and asked with rare concern, "But the temperature of the furnace is too low? Did it wake up the master?"

"No" the master half lifted the quilt on his body, it was hot.

In order to keep the master away from the cold, the warden specially covered the master with a thick quilt, hoping that the master would sweat while sleeping and remove the moisture in the cell.

In this way, I wake up the next morning, take a shower, change into clean clothes, and feel refreshed.

"Where is your lord?" The master didn't care about this, he just asked where the new county magistrate was, wanting to express his gratitude.

The warden didn't hide anything, and told about Zhang Feng's banquet for five rich men in the county government office.

Because accompanying the previous policemen to invite five old fortunes.

Such a 'big move' would of course reach the ears of the warden.

But how exactly, how the process is, he doesn't know.

The master heard that he turned over and went to find the new county magistrate.

He was afraid that Zhang Feng would suffer from these five local old foxes by talking about words.

He just changed his clothes, got out of the cell, and got on the horse prepared by the warden.

When he arrived at the county government office, the police quickly reported and took him into the yard, but he saw the new county magistrate reading a book in the hall.

He stood outside the hall and sighed softly, knowing that the matter was over.

But when he came to the hall and smelled the bloody smell that hadn't dissipated, he was stunned for a moment, feeling that the matter might have just begun.

"grown ups"

He came in to salute and wanted to say that he would not come in person.

"Sir came just in time." Zhang Feng put down the books in this world and looked at the master, "Please sit down, I just want to ask you something."

"My lord speaks seriously." When the master heard that Zhang Feng had something to ask him, he sat down gently, straightened his body, and listened attentively.

Forget everything.

Zhang Feng didn't talk about the five old fortunes, but asked with other references: "I heard someone talk about the 'Zhao family's murder of husband' before, have you ever heard of it? Or understand it?"

"Mr. Zhao killed her husband." The master frowned when he heard this, "Three achievements of my imprisonment this time were due to the investigation of this case. It was all because Mrs. Zhao was photographed by the 'Shopkeeper Xing', and the shopkeeper Xing He is a good friend of Tan Butou, so this matter is very complicated, it is hard to say that it is not just a matter of Zhao's virtue."

When the master said this, he didn't know the intricate relationship between it and the interests of morality and ethics.

He always felt insulted.

Zhang Feng saw the master like this, but for some reason, he suddenly remembered Ximen Qing in Water Margin, and asked for a moment: "Did Shopkeeper Xing seduce Mrs. Zhao, and Mrs. Zhao poisoned her husband?"

"This..." the master immediately revealed a surprised expression when he heard the word 'poison', and shook hands with Zhang Feng and said, "My lord only listened to the student's two or three words, and pointed out the key points of the case. The student sighed!"

"Yeah." Zhang Feng was calm and calm, his expression didn't change, but he didn't expect that he really guessed right.

This Mrs. Zhao really came from the shopkeeper Xing, and came to the Wu Dalang scene where the adulterer gave medicine and she fed soup.

Then the altar arrester will go out and fill the case.

Chapter 2 Needless to say!

"Where is Mrs. Zhao now?" Zhang Feng asked, preparing to have a trial of the matter and complete the incident by branching.

Unexpectedly, the master suddenly sighed, shook his head and said: "Zhao has been killed by shopkeeper Xing, but shopkeeper Xing and others are at large."

"Killed?" Zhang Feng looked at the master, feeling that there are twists and turns in this matter?

The master nodded silently, and told the truth,

"Before entering the prison a few days ago, I did some investigation and found out that Mrs. Zhao was not taken into the house by shopkeeper Xing.

And Mrs. Zhao may have regretted it after poisoning her husband.

Every day and night, the people who pass by the shopkeeper Xing's mansion can hear a woman crying in a low voice from the mansion, "I wish I could be like this" and "I never want to be squeezed out by the sister in the house, the husband hates her, don't marry" discourse

There are also rumors that Mrs. Zhao went out of the mansion overnight five days ago, intending to report to the officer that shopkeeper Xing had ordered her to poison her husband, but the guards in the mansion of shopkeeper Xing found out that he hadn't gone far, so he was beaten and brought back."

Master said here, shook his head,

"Within two days, shopkeeper Xing said that Mrs. Zhao had died of illness at home.

But there were also rumors that day, and at night they heard mournful wailing from the backyard.Said that Mrs. Zhao asked the guards to find a doctor for her to treat her injuries.Not long after, the housekeeper of Shopkeeper Xing, with two guards, dragged a blood-stained sack out of the backyard and handed it over to a strong man in disguise.

Until now, Zhao's body has not been found.

Shopkeeper Xing said it was a plague, and handed it over to someone who specialized in handling the matter, and a fire burned outside the county

But"

The master pondered for a while, then looked at Zhang Feng.

'Destroying corpses and eradicating traces' Zhang Feng pondered for a while, then looked at the master who was hesitant to speak, and motioned him to speak clearly if he had anything to say.

"It's not that the altar arrests me, and I feel hatred in my heart." The master thought to himself, "It's because I found out some things and discovered that Zhao's case involved many people."

When the master started talking, maybe he thought that since the new county magistrate would arrest the 'tan catcher', he would definitely see the details, and then told him everything he found out.

Zhang Feng listened, and found out that the master had secretly checked, and the strong man who checked was a bandit, and he was the head of the family.

Therefore, the master also concluded from this that the shopkeeper Xing not only had a lot of friendship with Tan Butou, but also colluded with bandits.

Otherwise, Zhao's case and Zhao's body would not disappear without a trace, and the case would be hastily suppressed, causing no splash.

And the ins and outs of this matter, the wife and family of shopkeeper Xing's family all know.

After all, marrying a concubine, and then contacting Zhao's husband's death, Zhao's death, this is a very clear murder to take his wife, and he is afraid that his reputation will be ruined, and he is tired of killing.

Such things are not uncommon in any world.

However, in this world, there is an extra playful word 'kill', which removes all worries and preserves one's own reputation.

Because everyone is dead, no one can call Shopkeeper Xing a scumbag.

Shopkeeper Xing's wives and concubines also know about it, but they only know about it.

They still should enjoy the blessings and enjoy the blessings, just live a good life as their young mistresses.
