"Butu Tou, here comes the work."
Entering the city at dawn, Zhao Lin and Liang Song came to the county prison cell and threw the bandits tied into twists in front of Tu Wuyan.
Tu Wuyan had been drinking early in the morning. When he heard this, he put down his wine cup, walked up to the two bandits with a smile, raised his foot and kicked him twice, "Who are these two young heroes?"
"Beards in the mountains and Tutou will use whatever means they can, but don't show mercy to them."
Zhao Lin said in an understatement, "But don't just use torture, remember to examine something and come out."
Tu Wuyan laughed loudly, "This is easy. I wonder what Captain Zhao wants to ask?"
Zhao Lin already knew it well and said: "The more inside information about Huzi, such as how many dens there are, the location of the secret passages of the organization, the key members, etc., the more the better."
Tu Wuyan took out a pen and paper from the drawer and wrote them down one by one. Then he looked at the two beards teasingly, "Captain Zhao, don't worry, I will definitely pry their mouths open."
After leaving the cell, Zhao Lin and Liang Song returned to the police room to rest.
After a hard night, both of them were a little sleepy. It was not convenient to sleep during the day, so they leaned on the chairs and took a nap.
Zhao Lingang was confused for a while, when a police officer came in and called: "Captain Zhao, there is someone looking for him outside."
"Who is it?" Zhao Lin asked, struggling to open his eyes.
"My surname is Yuan, and I am the senior brother of the captain," the officer replied.
"Senior Brother Yuan?"
Zhao Lin suddenly woke up. Yuan Cheng was looking for him in broad daylight. He must have something important to do.
"I know, I'll go take a look right now."
Liang Song was still dozing off, so Zhao Lin didn't bother him and walked straight out of the Yamen.
"I've been looking for you in Dongcheng for a long time, and it turns out that you are in the Yamen. If I had known about it, I would have come directly." Yuan Cheng said as soon as they met.
Zhao Lin looked at him steadily, "Senior brother, what's wrong?"
"Oh, it's not Chu Liu's business."
Yuan Cheng sighed and took out a piece of letterhead, "Look at this first."
Zhao Lin took it and took a look and saw the word "county" printed on the upper left corner of the letter and Magistrate Liu's name seal in the lower right corner. He couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
This is a county government edict. It is a semi-formal document and is mostly used in minor cases. It is equivalent to putting oral instructions into writing.
The imperial edict had been opened, and Zhao Lin took out the letters inside and browsed them quickly.
It turned out that Chu Liu stayed at Yanchun Tower, which is a brothel, last night, and got into a dispute with someone over a widower and beat him up.
The person who was beaten also had a background. He was a disciple of the Lingshan Sect. It was said that he was seriously injured.
Normally, the county government will not intervene in conflicts between sects, and the sects will resolve them themselves.
But this incident caused a big fuss. Chu Liu not only beat up people, but also smashed up the brothel, and even injured several of the old madams and turtles.
Xicheng Captain Guo Sheng received the report and immediately arrested Chu Liu and took him to prison.
After Zhao Lin read the letter, he stuffed the paper back and asked, "Is what it says true?"
Yuan Cheng nodded silently.
"This is a bit troublesome."
Zhao Lin frowned.
In the Dai Viet Dynasty, warriors had a high status, but they could not use force at will.
The reason is simple: Xia uses force to disrupt the law. If warriors use force to kill ordinary people at will, wouldn't the world be in chaos?
But having said that, as a disciple of the Liuhe Sect, even if someone wants to be arrested, he should be informed.
"The captain of Xicheng is... Guo Sheng."
Zhao Lin muttered softly and immediately understood the reason.
Guo Sheng was a disciple of the Lingshan sect, so he naturally supported his sect, and Chu Liu was the one at fault, so he was arrested directly.
Zhao Lin didn't go to Dianmao this morning. He didn't know that something like this had happened, so he had no chance to intervene.
However, judging from the content of the edict, the county magistrate also gave himself and the Liuhe Sect some face, and only imprisoned Chu Liu without any other punishment.
Yuan Cheng continued: "This matter is our fault. Master has rushed to the Lingshan sect to negotiate the matter. Senior brother and second senior brother went to the brothel with the Chu Liu family to apologize. As for the Yamen, I leave it to Junior Brother Zhao. .”
Zhao Lin nodded to express his understanding, "Senior brother, don't worry. As long as the master obtains forgiveness from the Lingshan Sect and the brothel doesn't cause trouble, the Yamen will have no problem releasing him."
"By the way, how come Senior Brother Chu goes to a brothel?"
It has been nearly a year since he started. Chu Liu doesn't know why, but he has always looked down upon him. The two of them never even exchanged a complete sentence, so he rarely asked about Chu Liu.
Yuan Cheng's face turned cold as soon as he heard this, "You focus on practicing martial arts and don't know Chu Liu's style. He is only in his early twenties and has married five concubines and spends all day living and drinking."
"Of course, this is his private matter and we have nothing to do with it. But this is not the first time he has caused trouble in a brothel."
"Do you think this is what martial arts training looks like?"
After listening to his senior brother's words, Zhao Lin also felt speechless.
Practicing martial arts does not require you to maintain Yuanyang, but doing this too much will definitely cause damage to the body, and the greater harm is to wear down the will and disturb the spirit.
No wonder Zhu Huaishan has always had a grudge against Chu Liu. If he didn't have these bad habits, he would have recommended Xingyun Sect long ago.
Zhao Lin secretly took a warning. Alcohol is a poison that penetrates the intestines, and sex is a bone scraper. He cannot make such a mistake.
After sending Yuan Cheng away, Zhao Lin returned to the Yamen to ask about Guo Sheng's whereabouts, but after asking around, no one knew.
It is estimated that Guo Sheng does not want to see him for the time being. After all, it is unreasonable to let him go immediately after being captured. Moreover, there is no news from the Lingshan Sect.
Zhao Lin thought for a while and did not go to the county magistrate. Instead, he came to the prison cell, said hello to the jailer, and walked into the cell where Chu Liu was detained.
Prison and prison are often referred to together, but in fact they are quite different.
Cells hold convicted prisoners. Prisons are only for temporary detention. The conditions for detention are much better than cells.
"Fifth Senior Brother, how are you? Do you want to drink some water or eat something?"
Chu Liu was alone in a single room, and it seemed that he was not aggrieved. As soon as Zhao Lin came closer, he smelled the smell of alcohol and frowned slightly.
Chu Liu looked up at him and said coldly: "No need, when will you let me out?"
Hearing his confident tone, Zhao Lin's face darkened, "I'm afraid I'm going to aggrieve the fifth senior brother."
Chu Liu said nonchalantly: "Okay, as soon as possible. I've been here for a long time, and our Liuhe Sect's reputation won't look good, right?"
Zhao Lin almost laughed angrily at him. Not wanting to talk nonsense to him anymore, he turned around and walked out of the cell.
The prison room was not far from the cell, so Zhao Lin came to the forbidden room again.
Unexpectedly, Liang Song was also there, holding a brush in his hand and writing on the paper.
The two men with beards were stripped of all their clothes and hung on the iron frame like naked pigs. Tu Wuyan whipped them with a whip soaked in water, and screams came and went.
Zhao Lin glanced at it and asked, "How are you doing? Have you recruited me?"
Tu Wuyan laughed and said, "I've done it, I've done it all."
"I recruited you and you still fight?"
"Isn't this nothing to do? Captain Zhao, do you want to come and enjoy yourself?"
"No need."
Zhao Lin thought that if Tu Wuyan hadn't been in this line of work, he would have been another pervert.
When Liang Song saw Zhao Lin coming in, he handed over two pages of paper and said with a smile: "This is a confession."
