system:
"Because of Chen Biao's death, the Yamen police are on their way over. You have two choices.
First, take Jiulian on the road to escape.
Second, stay and face it, reward the scholar with fame, and move the talisman to help you escape in danger. "
When Xu Xian woke up, the cold mechanical voice of the system rang, giving him two choices, either run away now, or run away when in danger.
However, escaping is not that easy.
If he could escape to Xu Mansion, he might be able to escape.
However, Chenjiagou is too far away from Xu Mansion, and it is impossible for Xu Xian and Jiulian to avoid the checkpoints along the way and escape to Xu Mansion.
The teleportation talisman has a distance limit, the longest is only three kilometers, and it is disposable and will be gone after use.
Since Shang Yang's reform, people can't just walk around casually. There is a strict inspection system to prevent people from running away.
With the support of the King of Qin, Lord Shang implemented a reform. The main content of the decree enacted at that time was to organize the people in the country into groups according to five or ten families. This was the beginning of the Baojia system.
This kind of Shiwu system stipulates that if someone from five or ten families commits a crime, the five or ten families must be punished together. If you want to avoid being punished, you must report the person who committed the crime. Those who know the crime and do not report it will be severely punished, that is, beheaded in half. Those who report crimes will be rewarded according to their meritorious service in battle, and those who hide and commit crimes will be punished as severely as those who surrender in battle.
After the implementation of such a system, everyone in the country has been woven into a tight and effective net. If anyone commits a crime, it is impossible to escape the punishment of this legal net. This is the realization of what Lao Tzu said about the restoration of the sky net. Careful but not missing.
But the legal net implemented by Shang Jun is no longer sparse but tight.
Since this system was implemented, it has been inherited and strictly implemented by all dynasties, and the Chu Dynasty was no exception.
Escape is an option, but it is not a good option. Xu Xian decided to stay and make a decision based on the development of the situation.
Xu Xian chose to stay between the two options in the system.
At this moment, the memories of Chenjiagou and related people nearby changed, and the memory of Chen San being admitted as a scholar appeared out of thin air.
The system tampered with the memories of relevant personnel, making everyone think that Xu Xian was a scholar.
Although Xu Xian is a scholar and his life is at stake, it is impossible not to go to the Yamen. Jiulian needs to be settled first.
Xu Xian said to Jiulian:
"Lian'er, dad has something to deal with. You go to uncle Changxing's place to stay for a few days. Dad will be back soon."
Xu Xian thought Jiulian would agree, but unexpectedly, Jiulian said:
"If Lian'er doesn't go, Lian'er will stay with her father."
Going to the Yamen is no joke. If Jiulian goes with her, Xu Xian may not be able to take care of her. Various accidents may happen and Xu Xian may be imprisoned. Jiulian cannot follow her.
Xu Xian said:
"Dad is going to deal with the bad guys. It's not convenient for you, a little kid, to follow."
Jiulian shook a pair of small fists and said:
"Dad forgot, Lian'er is very strong and can help dad deal with bad guys."
Jiulian is indeed very strong and can easily lift a stone lock weighing 300 kilograms, but she is not invincible.
Jiulian has never experienced actual combat. Facing swords, guns, arrows and slaves, no matter how strong she is, it will be useless.
However, Xu Xian could not convince Jiulian.
If Chen Changxing is willing to follow Jiulian along the way, Xu Xian won't have to worry.
However, Xu Xian and Chen Changxing were not familiar with each other, so it might be okay to leave Jiulian in Chenjiagou and let Chen Changxing take care of her.
Because Jiulian is also a member of the Self-Defense Force.
Xu Xian himself felt embarrassed if he really wanted Chen Changxing to go to the county government office with him.
After all, although Xu Xian learned Tai Chi from Chen Changxing, because there were so many members of the Self-Defense Force, it was difficult for Chen Changxing to remember him.
As for Chen Ren, Xu Xianshi always felt that he was not a good person, so he tried to have as little contact with him as possible, and was not worried about letting Jiulian be with him.
"If I really want to go to jail, I won't fight with them and just take Jiulian to escape."
After Xu Xian figured it out, he said:
"Lian'er, let's face it together and hope we can get through it smoothly."
When the Yamen policemen arrived, they alerted Chen Changxing, Chen Ren and others early in the morning.
After asking around, I found out that it was Chen Biao's father, Chen Yi, who went to the county government to play drums and complain.
Chen Ren said:
"Third brother, don't worry. I just went to the county government to cooperate with the investigation to stop everyone from saying that it was not the third brother who killed the person. In the end, the third brother will definitely be cleared due to insufficient evidence."
However, Xu Xian knew that since the system had reminded him, this trip would definitely not be that simple.
Song Captou cupped his hands and said:
"Mr. Chen, we believe that you are innocent. We just asked you to go to the county government office to repay your innocence."
Xu Xian's status as a scholar really took advantage of him, and Agent Song was always polite to him.
Since Song Captou treated each other with courtesy, Xu Xian also cupped his fists and said:
"That's right. Thank you for your hard work, everyone."
Song Captou shook his head and sighed:
"Chen Biao is arrogant and domineering. He has offended too many people in the fish and meat village. He deserves what he is experiencing now.
To say something that shouldn't be said, Chen Biao really deserves the blame.
If Mr. Chen really killed Chen Biao, it would be a meritorious deed. "
It turned out that he was trying to trick me. Xu Xian’s face sank and he said:
"Captain Song, if you have anything to say, just say it, don't make any insinuations."
Song Captou kept smiling and said:
"Chen Yi said that it was Mr. Chen who killed Chen Biao, but as the saying goes, to catch a thief is to catch an adulterer, to catch an adulterer in pairs, everything requires evidence.
Of course, this evidence will not come out by itself, we need to find it.
We would like to search your house. Is Mr. Chen okay with that? "
Although the house Xu Xian lives in is a bit rundown, it still has quite a lot of rooms.
Due to disrepair, many rooms have collapsed, and only a few rooms where Xu Xian lives are still relatively well preserved.
Xu Xian has not been to other rooms. If someone throws the murder weapon in those rooms, Xu Xian may not be able to tell the difference.
Seeing Xu Xian's hesitation, Song Captou seemed to have captured something. A playful smile flashed in his eyes, and his voice rose a bit, a bit aggressively, and said:
"What, Mr. Chen feels guilty? Don't you dare let us search?"
Hearing this, Xu Xian said:
"Chen San's parents died young, and the family is very thin. Except for the few rooms he lives in, the other rooms are in disrepair and are overgrown with weeds. I'm afraid there are snakes, insects, rats, and ants. You can search them if you want, but be careful."
"Mr. Chen hesitated. I thought he was afraid that we would find the murder weapon, but it turned out that he was worried about our safety."
Song Captou patted the sword on his waist and laughed loudly:
"The three-foot green sharp edge around our waists has been used to kill demons and monsters."
After a pause, Song Captou turned around and ordered:
"Xiaoqian, Xiaowei, search carefully. There really is something evil in Chen's house. You have to clean it up for Mr. Chen."
The two took the order and left.
Agent Qian and Agent Wei didn't find any monsters, they just found a blood-stained knife.
It makes sense to say it was a murder weapon.
