Dabai said: "Mom, Hongmei, the knife is already on your neck, please stop arguing, okay?"
Yang Huamei and Hongmei both shut up.
Dabai said: "Stop arguing, pack your things, and let's go back to the shop quickly."
"Just do it as it should. At least there are many people in the shop, so you won't be afraid!"
In this way, Dabai and the others returned to Baimeizhai. After returning to Baimeizhai, Dabai immediately called the shop assistants together and assigned them tasks again...
As for Yang Ruoqing, when she arrived at the county seat, it was already dark.
Walking on the familiar streets of the county town, although everything seemed to be the same as before, Yang Ruoqing clearly felt that there was a strange smell in the air.
Ordinary people may not know anything about those auras.
But for Yang Ruoqing, she could sense it.
It was a dangerous smell.
Because of the county government affairs, the streets are very unstable now.
Yang Ruoqing went straight into the county government office, where the county magistrate was convening a group of people to discuss the matter of arresting Yang Yongxian.
Yang Ruoqing learned about the list and identities of those who were summoned.
Not only were there relevant officials from the county government, but also several squires from the county town.
Yang Ruoqing understands this very well.
As a county magistrate and a parent official, when you arrive in the local area, you are not just hiding in the county government office and being your own county magistrate. It is also your job to establish good relations with the squires, landlords, and other famous and wealthy people in the area. one of them.
In this way, when you exercise your authority, you can get support from these people in many matters.
Even if you don't get support, at least you won't be blocked.
Sometimes, the county government's financial affairs also need the support of these people.
This is true for both human and financial resources.
Therefore, when the Yang Yongxian incident happened, it was necessary for the county magistrate to bring these people together and discuss it together.
After all, the existence of Yang Yongxian is a potential threat to everyone in Wanghai County.
No one wants to suffer these personal and property risks for themselves and their families.
But Yang Ruoqing did not want to participate in their meeting, so Yang Ruoqing waited in a separate private room, accompanied by the county magistrate's wife, to wait for the county magistrate to finish the meeting.
After a stick of incense, the county magistrate came over.
The two of them skipped other pleasantries and got straight to the point.
The county magistrate said: "According to the on-site investigation and identity verification, there were three people who escaped this time. They are Yang Yongxian, Xu Dayong, and Zhao Si."
"The three of them are probably together."
"Xu Dayong is a foreigner, and Zhao Si is a local in the county. We have now controlled the area around Zhao Si's house, so after blocking several roads out of the county, these three people are most likely to go to Zhao Si's house."
It was freezing outside. If they didn't find a place to stay and provide supplies, they would probably freeze to death before the officers and soldiers came to catch them.
"In other respects, troops have been deployed to search every household."
Yang Ruoqing nodded.
The county magistrate's wife replaced the tea soup in front of Yang Ruoqing with hot water.
Yang Ruoqing held up the tea, took a sip, and then said to the county magistrate: "We are not only searching ordinary households, but also restaurants, inns, and the Fireworks Alley area. We must not let go."
"Especially Fireworks Alley, it's the worst place for filth and evil!"
The county magistrate nodded.
The two discussed some details, and finally, Yang Ruoqing stood up and left, preparing to go to Tianxiang Tower to rest.
When she was walking on the way to Tianxiang Tower, it was already completely dark.
There were almost no people on the long street. As she moved forward, the street lights pulled her figure behind her, stretching it very long...
The north wind howled and rolled up the dead leaves on the ground, as if someone was crying on the street at night.
As I walked, I suddenly heard footsteps behind me.
Yang Ruoqing didn't turn her head, but she knew she was being watched.
It's interesting. Are you trying to throw yourself into a trap?
"oops!"
Suddenly, Yang Ruoqing pretended to twist her foot and then fell to the ground.
Behind her, the footsteps suddenly caught up with her, and then, a figure squatted down in front of her.
"Little lady, where did you fall? Let me show you?"
Yang Ruoqing raised her head and saw that the man squatting in front of her was so ugly!
His face was greasy and vulgar, and he barely had the words "lsp" written on his face!
"Brother, have you not brushed your teeth in how many years? Your mouth stinks!" Yang Ruoqing covered her nose with a look of disgust.
Yang Ruoqing planned to go back and ask the county magistrate who the painter who painted the prisoners was and where he was now!
Not only did she have to enlarge the chicken legs for people, but she also had to invite people to the village and ask them to paint pictures of Lao Yangtou, Tan Shi, Lao Suntou, and other elders in the family.
There were no cameras in this era, so we couldn't leave any image data, so we could only use a pen in the painter's hand to leave some portrait data, so that when future generations talk about their ancestors, they can see the pictures and know who they are. So personal.
And not just a cold name.
I'm off topic, sorry.
But the reason is that the criminals painted by the artist are so similar to real people!
Yang Ruoqing recognized at a glance that the wretched man in front of her was Xu Dayong, the prisoner the government was chasing!
Yang Ruoqing then remembered the criminal records she had read about Xu Dayong at the county government office. This guy committed crimes mainly because he was too lustful.
Since ancient times, the word "color" has a knife on it. Since ancient times, it has resulted in the destruction of many families and people!
This Xu Dayong was also beaten up by the man and his brother-in-law of a family in the same village for teasing her.
As a result, this guy was so evil that he bought a butcher's knife, broke into someone's house at night, and killed them!
He was injured on the way to escape and met a kind old couple.
The old couple didn't know Xu Dayong's background, so they rescued him and took him home.
After half a month of good food and good food, Xu Dayong's first thing he did after his injury healed was to give the old couple's pot-bellied daughter-in-law a kiss.
The son of the old couple passed away before, and he was the only son in the family. Fortunately, the daughter-in-law still had some blood in her belly, so she still had a good life.
As a result, Xu Dayong killed his daughter-in-law, and the baby in his belly also died. At that time, one corpse and two lives were lost.
The old couple wanted to fight Zhao Dayong, but they were killed by Zhao Dayong.
Xu Dayong is such a vicious person with no limits and never knows how to be grateful.
He was detained in the county jail in order to imprison him for life and make his life worse than death.
Unexpectedly, when he met Yang Yongxian, he immediately escaped with him.
After escaping, he knew that the government was pursuing him, but he was so bold that he escaped at night and wanted to continue his murderous act.
But this time, he was unlucky to meet Yang Ruoqing!
