"Other arresters will definitely die, but Xu Taiping will definitely not. Sir, don't forget, there is Liu Sanbian standing behind Xu Taiping." When Lin Xiao said this, he sneered: "Besides, he will die If he dies, just re-promote him as a head catcher. He can be used easily, but if he doesn't obey me, it's better not to use him at all."
When Xia Xueyi heard Lin Xiao's words, he nodded without thinking: "Okay, then send him to Lianshou County."
At this point, he sighed: "I'm really reluctant to let go. This Xu Taiping will be a right-hand man when used properly. I originally wanted to find an opportunity to recommend him to adults after subduing him, but in the end..."
Lin Xiao smiled and said: "Time is also fate, and Xu Taiping has this fate."
"Yes," Xia Xueyi waved his hand: "Bring the files from Lianshou County, I will find a suitable reason to send him there. Doesn't he like to solve cases? Then let him solve enough."
Lin Xiao took out the file and handed it to Xia Xueyi.
Xia Xueyi browsed for a moment, then suddenly slapped his thigh: "This is good, Xu Taiping will definitely like it!"
Lin Xiao looked over and smiled: "Indeed, it suits Xu Taiping's taste. Hehe, heroes saving beauties and so on..."
"Hahahahaha," Xia Xueyi laughed: "Call Xu Taiping over!"
"yes."
As soon as Xu Taiping sat down, he heard Xia Xueyi's call. He frowned secretly, got up and followed the Yamen servant back to the judge's house: "Sir, what are your orders to your subordinates?"
Xia Xueyi waved enthusiastically: "Come on, come on, sit down."
"Thank you, sir."
"It's like this. There has been a difficult case in Lianshou County recently. I want you to go and take a look."
"What case?"
"It's quite embarrassing to say it. See for yourself," Xia Xueyi said with a sigh on his face and handed the file to Xu Taiping.
Xu Taiping took it and glanced at it.
Um?
Why does this case look so familiar?
The bride Ji Xiaoshan was exterminated on her wedding night, and she identified county captain Ren Yude as the murderer. Ren Yude denied it and accused Ji Xiaoshan of colluding with the Lianhe water demon to commit the crime, just to seize her husband's huge and generous property, and submitted some evidence.
Now, Ji Xiaoshan is confined to her home, obeying summons at any time and waiting to solve the case.
However, after more than a month of investigation, there was no progress. Instead, two consecutive arrests were made.
Therefore, Qiao Lichen, the magistrate of Lianshou County, could only ask for help from the county.
After Xu Taiping read it, he frowned secretly.
The case is not too difficult.
If you really want to solve the case, there are many ways. If you use an interrogation-like magical power, you can solve the case. If it doesn't work, you can still torture them.
The case has not been solved so far, which shows that the problem with the case is not the case itself, but lies outside the case.
County captain Ren Yude?
Water monster?
Well, these two parties are beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Especially the county lieutenant. If it was really the murderer, the county magistrate would really have no choice but to ask for help from his superiors.
However, I don't care.
No matter the county captain or the water demon, as long as I find out clearly, no one can escape.
This is a free reward.
Thinking of this, Chao Xia Xueyi handed over his hand: "Sir, this case has been taken over by my subordinates."
Hearing this, Xia Xueyi smiled even more enthusiastically: "Okay, I know you are a responsible person, so I'll leave early and come back early. The county can't do without you."
"I obey my orders."
Xu Taiping left the magistrate's house with the file, went back to the arrest squad and picked two arrests. He then briefly explained the mission and asked Zhang Changan to register and file it.
Both detectives were named Tan.
One Tan Yong and the other Tan Xin are both members of the Tan clan, and both are in the third-rate realm.
Xu Taiping didn't plan to take them with him, after all, two third-rate realms were really useless.
But as a seventh-grade police officer going to the county on official business, it would be unreasonable not to bring two of his subordinates with him.
Moreover, a third-rate martial artist is considered a minor expert in the county, and he is more than capable of running errands and delivering letters.
When he found Tan Yong and Tan Xin, he first threw them one hundred taels of silver and said, "You two pack up and set off immediately to Lianshou County."
"grown ups?"
"Lianshou County?"
Tan Yong and Tan Xin were shocked: "Why are you going to Lianshou County?"
"Investigating the case."
"My lord, please think twice."
"Oh?" Xu Taiping glanced coldly: "What did you say?"
Tan Yong swallowed nervously and whispered: "Sir, Lianshou County is not a good place."
"What's wrong?"
"There are many monsters."
"What's the meaning?"
"Literally, sir, there are monsters everywhere in Lianshou County."
When Xu Taiping heard this, he frowned: "It's not surprising that there are monsters outside. How can there be monsters inside? Even if there are monsters, you both know about it. How can the county magistrate and county captain know about it?"
Tan Yong's expression was a little ugly: "Sir, you have just taken office, and you still don't know many things. This Lianshou County is the most special county in our Yingyin County."
"What's so special about it? The city is full of monsters?"
"Absolutely." Tan Yong took a deep breath with an extremely solemn expression: "Lianshou County is in the southwest corner of Yingyin County, close to the Lianhe River and across the river from Lianyang Mountain. It has many mountains, few people, and plenty of land for farming. There is very little fertile land, so we can only rely on mountains and water to feed ourselves.
"However, there are many monsters in Lianshui and Lianyang Mountains. People have to leave or live in an ignoble way in order to survive.
“But I don’t know since when, local people started to accept monsters and trade and cooperate with monsters, which has become a climate.
"The river fresh food produced in Lianshui and the mountain treasures, minerals, trees and herbs produced in Lianyang Mountain are very popular, but they are extremely exclusive. Businessmen from other places can only wholesale from local merchants and cannot directly contact local fishermen and mountain people. Violators No one who survives will die miserably.”
When Xu Taiping heard this, he was surprised but not angry.
The people just want to survive, and there is nothing wrong with that.
As long as the monsters don't kill people or do evil, it's also true.
Locally protected business practices?
There is nothing to say about that. It was not illegal in the Jin Dynasty. As long as it was not forced buying or selling, it would be fine. It was just that the rules were a little overbearing.
So he smiled and said: "We are going to investigate a case, not doing business. I am a serious seventh-grade official, so I won't be in danger, right?"
Tan Yong sighed: "Master Xu, the danger is here. The people in Lianshou County are extremely xenophobic. It's okay for you to investigate the case. It's okay if the murderer is a foreigner. If the murderer is a local, we will leave in despair even if we don't die." , It doesn’t matter that we are unknown, but Mr. Xu, you want your reputation to be tarnished.”
When Xu Taiping heard this, he was completely relieved: "I thought Lianshou County was hiding a demon emperor-level demon, but it turned out to be such a trivial matter."
Shaking his head: "Okay, I know what's going on. Anyway, you two are just running errands. You don't need to take the lead. If something happens, I will take care of it myself."
Tan Yong and Tan Xin looked at each other and nodded helplessly: "Master Xu, of course we cannot refuse, but Master Xu, please be careful."
"I got it, you two go ahead. I'll definitely arrive before you. When I get there, I'll go to the county police squad and stay there. Don't say anything, don't ask anything, and don't care."
"good."
Wait for Tan Yong and Tan Xin to leave.
Xu Taiping simply packed up and went straight to the Good Luck Inn.
He had just killed Wang Zheng, captured his master alive, and captured a high-level flying sword. There was so much information that could be exchanged for rewards.
The most important thing is to get some information from the six gates to see what is going on in Lianshou County.
Come in.
He slapped the fiery red flying sword in front of Liu Feifei, leaned back on the Grand Master's chair, crossed his legs, took Liu Feifei's tea and took a sip happily, looking at Liu Feifei sideways: "How is this sword?"
