Talk about the world of mortals in detail

"Drive~drive~"

Twenty-one strong military horses galloped over, the smoke and dust billowing like a rainbow. Although there were only twenty-one horses, the momentum was like an army.

Some pedestrians outside the city of Luling County tried to avoid him from a long way away, and even some of the government officials standing guard at the city gate were so frightened that they hid on both sides.

"Xu~~"

The riders controlled their horses to slow down. Near the city gate, the speed of the twenty-one riders had also slowed down.

The people near the city gate looked at these mounted sergeants in awe. Twenty-one horses strolled towards the city gate, and the violent breathing of each horse could be clearly heard.

Duan Silie frowned and looked at the Luling County Yamen who were huddled aside. Is this the level of the Yamen here? The yamen servants have no energy.

"Is the Chu County Magistrate in your county in the Yamen?"

The foreman of the Yamen hurriedly stepped forward to answer.

"Come back to Master Jun, you are here. The county magistrate should be handling official business at the Yamen."

"Um!"

Duan Silie nodded, and then looked at his own soldiers behind him.

"Everyone, dismount."

A group of soldiers got off their horses to relax their muscles, and then followed their generals to lead their horses into the city. It was not until the group of cavalry left that people began to talk near the city gate.

In the Luling County Yamen, Chu Hang stopped the pen in his hand and looked at the subordinate who came to report with slight surprise.

"General Duan from Wuwei Battalion is here? How many people have he brought with him?"

The officer quickly answered.

"Come back, sir, I only brought twenty people with me."

"Come on, take me there!"

Chu Hang put the pen on the shelf and stood up. His letter should not have arrived at the Governor's Mansion yet, or at most it had just arrived, so General Duan must have set off long ago. It was not because of his letter.

At this moment, Duan Silie was already outside the court hall of the Yamen, with only a few soldiers around him, while the rest were watching horses on the street outside the Yamen.

Duan Silie looked at the situation inside and outside the court hall. The Luling County government office should not have been repaired for a long time, but a large plaque inside the court hall was obviously new, or the words on it were new.

"The mirror hangs high."

Duan Silie muttered and read out, the handwriting was very powerful.

At this time, the sound of footsteps was heard, and Duan Silie looked for the sound. When he saw Master Chu, whose name he had heard for a long time, his eyes lit up.

Even though Chu Hang is not a martial arts practitioner, in the eyes of a martial artist at Duan Silie's level, his energy level is much higher than that of ordinary people.

"I have met Mr. Chu. Under Duan Silie, I was ordered by the governor to choose a camp for training the new army in Beicang Prefecture. After touring Luling County, I felt that this place is the most suitable. I have also heard about Mr. Chu for a long time. The Daimyo came to visit first!"

"General Duan is so polite, Chu will naturally help you!"

Duan Silie's name was actually not that small. Chu Hang had done his homework before and knew that he was a capable general under the Governor.

Moreover, Chu Hang had met Duan Silie more than ten years ago and said with a smile.

"At the Yuezhou Martial Arts Conference, Mr. Chu also had a glimpse of General Duan's style. Unexpectedly, we are working together in the northwest today. We are really destined!"

Duan Silie's eyes lit up.

"Oh? Mr. Chu also went to the martial arts conference back then?"

Not only warriors went to Yuezhou, but also literati and scholars flocked to it, just to see the "Mountains and Rivers Immortal Furnace Picture". Unfortunately, the platform was too high and there were too few people who were qualified to appreciate it up close. The painting behind it was also lost. , so many literati returned home disappointed.

"Yes, my uncle was the chief clerk of Yuanjiang County in Yuezhou back then. I was also in Yuezhou during the martial arts competition, so naturally I went to see it. I was deeply impressed by Jianghu Ke's martial arts!"

Duan Silie smiled.

“Looking back, it seems like just yesterday”

With this past event, the distance between the civil and military officials quickly narrowed, and they became familiar quickly. Chu Hang also took the opportunity to explain some things that could only be discussed face to face.

Duan Silie's expression gradually became serious, and he looked at Chu Hangdao after hearing this.

"Master Chu, do you have any evidence?"

Chu Hang shook his head.

"In fact, there is no evidence. It's just a coincidence in the timing. There weren't many incidents in Luling County, so I subconsciously associated it with it, and it makes sense. However, this matter is just a matter of speculation, so I didn't discuss it with the Governor in the letter. illustrate."

"Well, I'm going to take a look at the body. Isn't it convenient?"

"please!"

Duan Silie went to the morgue with Chu Hang and the police officer who worked part-time in the Yamen. During the whole process, Chu Hang's calm look convinced Duan Silie that this man was different from ordinary civil servants.

For most of the next day, without any clues, Chu Hang and Duan Si Lie just discussed some work matters with each other. In the evening, they met Duan Si Lie at a restaurant in the city.

The companionship of wine, meat and dishes also made this group of sergeants who were tired of life and had not often been able to drink in the military camp particularly happy.

In a small private courtyard in the west corner of the city of Luling County, several people were gathering in the living room at the moment. The matter they were discussing was also related to what happened in Changfeng Mansion.

A small lamp surrounded the middle of the table, casting the shadows of several people across the room.

"Is there really an immortal in the world who left a message?" "Isn't this a lie?"

"It's indeed a bit ridiculous, but after all, it's the person who summoned me, so I have to treat it with caution!"

"The book is really lost?"

The person who just spoke shook his head.

"Zhao Yuansong is not a stupid person. He may have reacted when he escaped and knew that he was an abandoned son and a victim, so he is probably not dead yet, and the body on the boat is not him at all!"

"You mean, he ran away with the fairy book?"

The first speaker nodded.

"If there really is a fairy book, it must be like this!"

As he said that, the leader looked to the left and right.

"What happened to you two days ago that you were exposed?"

"Hmph, I'm afraid that Zhao Yuansong used his strength secretly after escaping, just to make us confused for a while so that he could interfere with the sight and go home to make arrangements! Otherwise, there is no way we would be exposed!"

"It's indeed possible, but we can't underestimate the Dayong Jianghu people. I heard you guys say that last time, that person actually died together with our people one against two. It's obviously not simple."

After several people discussed it for a while, the newly arrived leader said the same thing.

"In short, if the story about the Chu Mansion's fairy book is true, then the Chu family may have read it. It is necessary to arrest the Luling County Magistrate for questioning!"

Even after the fact, the blame can be put on Dayong's Jianghu people. After all, the Chu family's so-called magical secret strategy has been widely circulated in Changfeng Mansion. If there is a secret secret in it, the blame can be put on Dayong's Jianghu people. Yes, this kind of thing has not been done before.

"Sir, some sergeants are here today!"

"Oh? Who is coming? How many soldiers and horses are there?"

"There are not many people, about twenty riders. I don't know who is coming, but it is definitely not a pawn. The county magistrate is hosting a banquet in the restaurant. It should be a certain military attache."

The leader nodded slightly.

"I'll go check it out later!"

——

The banquet lasted until the moon was dimming, and the hearty laughter of the sergeants could be heard outside the restaurant.

It was already dark now, and there were no other diners in the restaurant. Only a few tables of people in the hall on the second floor were still eating.

Duan Silie once again changed his mind about Chu Hang. A civil servant had such a good drinking capacity. He drank a lot tonight. Even most of his soldiers were drunk. The rest stopped drinking because they had to take care of the drunk.

But Chu Hang, a scholar, only looked slightly drunk, but his consciousness was clear enough.

"Master Chu has a good drinker. There are not many military attachés in the army who are as powerful as you. Duan admires you! Please!"

Duan Silie raised a glass to invite him, and Chu Hang did not refuse anyone who came. He also drank with the other party with the word "please", and then said with a smile.

"Although this wine is acceptable, its strength is far inferior to Dengzhou's Tiaoxian wine. If I have a chance someday, I will make some really good wine and entertain General Duan!"

"Hahahahahaha, so refreshing! Duan just likes to deal with people like you!"

There were two restaurant waiters a little further away. One was leaning against a pillar and yawning, while the other was simply lying on an empty table. He was listening to the people chatting at the remaining tables and was ready to serve them at any time.

In the night outside, under the shadow of an eaves in the street far away from the restaurant, someone was looking at the lights on the restaurant over there.

The laughter and laughter from the other side of the restaurant can also be faintly transmitted here.

Several people have been observing here for a long time, and they are also whispering in secret at this moment.

"I'm afraid even a cow will get drunk with this way of drinking. Maybe it's better to choose a different day. Tonight is a good opportunity to take action!"

"Indeed!"

But what they didn't know was that someone had already discovered them and was secretly observing this group of people.

Pei Changtian was lying on the roof in the distance, his body pressed against the ridge of the roof, hiding in the shadow. He didn't just happen to meet him, but he had been paying attention to the county government, or Chu Hang, almost all the time.

Firstly, I kept it in mind, and secondly, I also thought I could have a good chat with Chu Hang, but tonight I got a surprise.

It’s just a good certificate of application!

Thinking like this, Pei Changtian restrained his urge to cough again.
