Catching squad.
Xu Taiping opened the lid of the pot.
The steam rises with the rich aroma of meat.
Everyone swallowed in unison.
Even Xu Taiping felt his appetite was whetted.
This big pot of rice is so delicious when it's ready.
At this time.
Wu Liuyi waved his hands to drive everyone away.
He personally picked up seven or eight ribs and a few pieces of glutinous and trembling meat, and said to Xu Taiping: "Master Xu, you eat first and don't worry about them."
Xu Taiping nodded slightly and threw the spoon to the cook, Old Man Wang.
Shi Shiran returned to his exclusive position as head catcher.
The old Taishi chair and long table.
sit down.
Zhou Dafu poured wine.
Wang Dashan carries water.
Wu Liuyi served the dishes.
In the kitchen.
The policemen swarmed up and carved up the pot of pork.
But seeing that Xu Taiping didn't move his chopsticks, everyone could only look at the big pieces of meat in the bowl and swallow furiously, not daring to move first.
Xu Taiping was even more satisfied.
The tuning effect is excellent.
Then.
Pick up the wine bowl.
Raise your neck and drink it all in one gulp.
Slam the wine bowl on the table.
"boom--"
"Let's eat!"
Give an order.
When all the catchers heard the news, they only saw the pieces of meat in the bowl.
Two quarters of an hour later.
The pot was scooped out cleanly, with no trace of meat left.
The braised pork soup was also divided among the policemen.
Xu Taiping took the mouthwash brought by Wu Liuyi and rinsed his mouth.
"Hululu——"
"puff--"
"Did you enjoy your meal?"
All the detectives shouted in unison: "Happy."
"satisfied?"
"satisfy!"
"Do you still want to eat?"
"think!"
Xu Taiping hummed: "Then work hard and don't cheat and cheat all day long.
"I don't care what happened to you before.
“I don’t care what happens to you in the future.
"But if you follow me, you have to work seriously. What I tell you must be done properly. Do you understand?"
The detectives shouted with all their strength: "Understood!"
Xu Taiping's eyes swept across everyone's faces.
then.
He nodded slightly: "Tonight, I will lead Wang Dashan's small team to stay on duty tonight. The others will be dismissed. They must light the clock before four quarters tomorrow. Anyone who is late will not come back again!"
"yes!"
Wait for the other arrests to disperse.
It was already dark.
The police squad lights the oil lamp.
The light is quite bright, slightly stronger than a kerosene lamp. It is said that some treasures extracted by Taoist monks during alchemy are added to the oil, which can increase the brightness and burning time of the lamp oil, as well as its fragrance.
Under the light.
Wu Liuyi said attentively: "Master Xu, are you lying down? We can just keep watch all night."
Xu Taiping was noncommittal and asked: "Are Wang Mingqiang and the former head catcher Wang Minghu the same family?"
this problem.
Xu Taiping didn't pay attention before.
Because there are many people with the surname Wang in Jianyang City, accounting for 60%, it is not surprising that the names are similar or even the same.
But the problem is, Wang Minghu is the former head catcher.
Wang Mingqiang almost became the current head catcher again.
Moreover, both of them are martial arts cultivators, and both are in the martial arts realm.
This is very suspicious.
Wu Liuyi hesitated for a moment and whispered: "We can be considered a family."
"What does it mean to be a family?"
"They all have the surname Wang, and they are all somewhat related to the Wang family in the south of the city."
Xu Taiping frowned.
The Wang family in the south of the city?
That was the local emperor of Jianyang City.
Eighty percent of the industries in Jianyang City are controlled by the Wang family in the south of the city, including those who collect night incense and sweep the streets.
However, the Wang family is relatively low-key and rarely engages in bullying and domination, let alone bullying of men and women.
All I know is that the head of the family, Wang Feng, is also a Confucian and Taoist monk at the Jinshi level.
Other than that, there is no other impression.
I didn't think so before.
But now, I am extremely scared when I think about it.
A small local family was extremely powerful and could be called a local emperor, but it kept a ridiculously low profile.
This doesn't make sense.
Because in the feudal era, people governed society, and no matter how skilled they were in running a family, they could not keep the family so low-key inside and out.
The owner of the house is low-key, which is normal.
The direct children are all very low-key and understandable. The family has strict discipline and good education.
It makes sense that children of concubines are also low-key.
The housekeepers, servants, mothers-in-law, maids, including the shopkeepers, guards, and waiters of the Wang family's properties are also so low-key that they have almost no sense of presence, which is very abnormal.
Xu Taiping narrowed his eyes: "Has the Wang family been so low-key from the beginning?"
The young detectives nodded.
The expressions of the old detectives changed slightly.
Zhou Dafu whispered: "The Wang family used to be no different from ordinary local wealthy families. However, it seems that starting more than ten years ago, it gradually became low-key, as if it were a different person. Mr. Xu didn't ask today, and I almost forgot. Jianyang City also has the Wang family in the south of the city."
"A dozen years ago?"
"Probably twelve or thirteen years."
"interesting."
At this time.
Wu Liuyi said quickly: "Master Xu, please don't provoke the Wang family. Although they are low-key, they are definitely not easy to mess with."
Xu Taiping suddenly laughed: "Am I stupid? I went to provoke others nicely, but they didn't commit any crime."
Speaking of which.
He added with a smile: "I have just taken office, and the good times have just begun. How can I provoke them?"
Wu Liuyi breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, yes, that's the truth. Mr. Xu is still young, and his good days will still last."
The other detectives also breathed a sigh of relief.
Laughing and making jokes.
The atmosphere is extremely harmonious.
Chat for a while.
At Haishi, Xu Taiping went to bed.
The head catcher has a small single room.
In fact, it's not even a single room. It's in the same room as the Datong shop of other detectives, just separated by a small room.
There wasn't even a door, just a dirty curtain.
The bed was also dirty.
Xu Taiping was disgusted.
Just roll it up and throw it away, and spread it on a straw mat.
Get on the kang.
Sit cross-legged.
Take out the jade slip of "Xuanmen Zhoutian Gong" given by Wang Gang.
This technique.
It sounds like Taoism.
In fact, it is also Taoist.
It is a martial arts technique created by a Taoist master in the transformation stage. The style is Taoist style. The attributes of the technique are righteous and peaceful, but it seeks truth from within to nourish the true energy.
It has been circulating for thousands of years.
Many rich people practice it. Even if they cannot develop Qi and become a martial arts monk, they can still strengthen their body and strengthen their foundation.
Therefore, this technique is good, but if you want to say it is precious, it is not too precious.
However, no matter how precious it is, it is still out of reach of ordinary people.
Why?
Knowledge barrier.
The dissemination of knowledge is mainly written.
Even if everyone has a copy of this exercise, it will be useless if you are illiterate.
Even if you are literate, you may not be able to understand those professional terms.
Even if you can understand those professional terms, you will never be able to get in without the guidance of a master, and you will hurt yourself if you practice blindly.
certainly.
There are other ways, this is a fantasy world.
For example, exercises such as enlightenment can directly instill skills, cultivation, and even spiritual enlightenment.
There is also the jade slip that Xu Taiping got.
This kind of jade slips are made by certain sects or masters.
Contains cultivation techniques and related cultivation experiences.
By activating the jade slip, it can be directly engraved in the mind, and you can directly practice according to it. It can be regarded as a simplified version of "Enlightenment".
Xu Taiping has bamboo books.
Naturally, there is no need to practice any martial arts skills.
Moreover, Confucianism, Taoism, Buddhism, martial arts, swordsmanship and other schools have completely different cultivation concepts and methods. There is no way to practice at the same time. There is no such thing as Confucianism and martial arts being practitioners at the same time.
But with the jade slip in hand, I can't help but be curious and want to experience the "high-tech products" unique to this fantasy world.
Use your spiritual consciousness to try to activate the jade slip.
The next second.
A huge but clear and orderly information poured from the jade slip into the sea of consciousness.
All absorbed by the bamboo book.
The light on the bamboo book became a little brighter.
at the same time.
The bamboo book slowly unfolded again.
The scope of expansion is more than solving the water ghost murder case.
Not only activates the Confucian and Taoist magical power of "cutting the knot with a sharp knife".
He also activated a skill that left him stunned.
