Chapter 76 Important Figures
Song Changming reacted faster and instantly pulled out the dragon-patterned knife from behind, arriving first.

In a flash of silver light, his blade was the first to touch the opponent's throat.

"What a sharp knife." Liu Luo couldn't cut any further with his knife.

He didn't expect that the outcome would be decided in just this instant.

"A true hero emerges from youth," Liu Luo said, slamming his long knife on the square table and completely giving up resistance.

After a while, inside the Public Security Headquarters.

"It is indeed the Southern Tiger swordsman Liu Luo. He is really amazing, Chief Song!" A clerk in the General Office exclaimed after carefully verifying the portrait and wanted brochure.

Although Song Changming did not experience any major incidents during this year or so, he arrested a large number of bounty-bearing criminals.

Now, he is not only in the limelight in the General Security Department, but also has some reputation in the underworld of Donglai County.

Since he has personally captured many wanted criminals in the past year or so, it is normal for him to be noticed.

It was precisely because of this fame that the Southern Tiger Swordsman recognized him at a glance.

Song Changming waved his hand and said, "Let someone come and take over."

"Yes." The clerk said hurriedly.

After completing the handover and putting the bounty criminal into jail, Song Changming glanced at the sky and decisively left work on time and returned to the Song residence on Houli Street.

Every few days, he would come back to visit his parents and have a meal at home.

evening.

Song Changming watched the green water silkworms swaying in the water tank.

After being raised by Song's father and him for nearly three years, the silkworm farming finally yielded some results.

"Look, look, how beautiful the blue pattern is." Father Song carefully picked up one of the green water silkworms and said with a gratified smile.

Looking closely, a second blue line has grown on the body of the water silkworm, emitting a conspicuous blue halo, which is pure and beautiful.

Last night, a group of silkworms finished molting, and several of them had a second blue stripe.

This can be regarded as a new breakthrough in their silkworm breeding business.

"Beautiful, beautiful." Song Changming smiled and agreed with his old father.

Afterwards, the quality of the silkworm eggs produced by these two-striped green water silkworms will only be higher.

With such transformation from generation to generation, as long as there are no major mistakes, their high-quality green water silkworms will only increase in number.

Now that they can raise two-striped green water silkworms, it is already a major success, and Song's father has also gained a full sense of accomplishment.

In fact, Song Changming has been investing money in sericulture over the years and has continuously expanded the scale of silkworm breeding.

Now in the courtyard of the Song residence, the number of large water tanks for raising silkworms has increased from one to four.

Among them, there are hundreds of patternless green water silkworms alone.

There are more than a hundred one-line green water silkworms and more than ten two-line green water silkworms.

According to this breeding progress, by next year, the number of their water silkworms will begin to double, and the quality of some will be further improved.

By then, they might be able to try to supply blue water silkworms to the outside world and start making profits.

In fact, even though it is not sold to the outside world now, Song Changming can take some dead water silkworm bodies from time to time, which is of extra benefit to his body training and can also speed up the repair of hidden diseases and injuries in the body.

Even Song's father and mother would eat some occasionally, which was good for their aging bodies.

Next to the water tank, Dahuang put his two front paws on the edge of the tank, stuck out his tongue, and while cooling down, he was also staring at the translucent green silkworms in the tank.

Dabai lay lazily at Song Changming's feet, yawning.

If the two big dogs stood up now, the height of their backs would reach Song Changming's waist, making them two giants in the dog world.

If they did not have the physical characteristics of fog beasts, Song Changming would even think that they had been transformed by the fog gold. They looked really too powerful.

Although they appear to be docile and honest towards Song Changming's family at this moment, there have been several times before when thieves climbed over the wall into the yard at night, and these two big dogs almost bit the thieves' spines off.

They always keep in mind their mission of guarding the house, and they are very cruel to dangerous people who trespass into the Song residence.

This is also the reason why Song Changming felt at ease to live in Jinxiu Street and leave these two big dogs in the Song residence.

They are indeed good guards, like two door gods.

And they can always accurately identify people who come with malicious intent and will not harm innocent people.

Song Changming has always been very satisfied with the performance of these two big dogs, and it is worth it that he spends a lot of money every month to raise them.

"Go away, the things in this tank will be treasures in the future. Keep a close eye on them and don't let anyone destroy them." Father Song pushed the rhubarb lying beside the water tank and urged them.

The next day, the news that Song Changming had captured the Southern Tiger swordsman only caused a small stir in the headquarters. Occasionally, some people talked about it, but not many.

A criminal with a bounty of a thousand silver coins would be big news and a big event if it were placed in the city patrol department, but it would be nothing special in the general department.

Especially in the past year or so, this is not the only criminal with a thousand-silver bounty that Song Changming has captured, so it is not surprising.

"Captain Song, the director-general is calling for you." In the morning, a patrol guard came quickly and found Song Changming.

"Director General." Song Changming was a little surprised.

It turned out that he hadn't seen his boss for a long time.

Normally, unless there is a major event, you will hardly see this director general.

Therefore, this special summons was most likely for a big job.

Song Changming stood up, straightened his clothes, and walked to the main meeting room. He found that not only him, but also Lu Zheng and three other patrol captains were present, and they had all received a personal summons from the chief.

"Okay, now that everyone is here, I'll tell you straight away." Xie Shihuan glanced at the five chief patrol officers in front of him and said with his hands behind his back.

"This is an order personally issued by the county governor. It is a matter of great importance. Whoever leaks what I am going to say will be beheaded!"

Xie Shihuan went straight to the point and gave a serious warning.

Song Changming and the others immediately became solemn and nervous.

This matter is most likely very serious, and I'm afraid it's not an ordinary big deal!

"In a few days, an important person will arrive. The county magistrate will arrange for us to go and pick him up. We must bring this person back safely and not allow any failure!" said Xie Shihuan.

"I will lead the team myself, and the captain will also lead a group of cavalrymen. All you have to do is count the people and be prepared."

Song Changming and others agreed immediately.

He was extremely curious and didn't understand who this important person was and who could have caused the county magistrate to make such a fuss.

Not only their headquarters' patrol team was dispatched, but the military also had to cooperate in the escort.

The leaders were their chief general and the captain!
Song Changming knew that the commander of Donglai County was the second or third in command under the county governor. He held the power to govern and command the army and was in an absolutely powerful position!

But although they are curious, they will never ask questions that are not necessary.

Just do it, to avoid any disaster.

Soon, three days later.

Song Changming counted the men, a total of forty patrol guards, and took all his subordinates to report to Xie Shihuan.

There are five patrol teams in total, with a total of about two hundred warriors.

Xie Shihuan also brought his personal guards. Although there were only ten of them in total, each of them had a strong aura, was well-trained, and was full of murderous intent.

Although Song Changming had not seen these general director's personal guards take action, he had heard that their body training skills were at least at the fourth level or above.

And under Xie Shihuan's training year after year, the ten of them worked as one, had great tacit understanding during battle, and were extremely proficient in combat tactics.

When ten people form a battle formation, they are invincible and unstoppable, and can resist thousands of people!

Although he didn't know whether the rumor was exaggerated, from what he had seen with his own eyes, these ten people were indeed extraordinary, and he couldn't help but take a few more glances at them.

Outside the headquarters, Xie Shihuan didn't waste any words. He jumped on his horse and put on a black cloak to protect himself from the wind and dust.

Seeing this, Song Changming and others also mounted their horses.

"go!"

About two hundred riders galloped towards the west gate.

At the same time, at the city gate, a cavalry of 500 people was ready to go.

After seeing the team led by Xie Shihuan leaving the city, the two sides quickly reunited.

"Greetings, Commander." Xie Shihuan bowed to the leader of the Cavalry Army on his horse.

"Thank you, General Manager. No need to be so polite." Fan Yun replied calmly.

Song Changming's eyes fell on this man. This was the first time he had seen the captain of Donglai County in the more than one year he had been working in the General Headquarters.

Rumor has it that he is also a very powerful and ruthless man, and his strength is all gained through life and death on the battlefield.

The man had a black iron spear on his back and a heavy machete on his waist.

"Let's set off without further ado." Fan Yun gave an order, and the two teams moved forward side by side, galloping along the official road to the north.

Compared to the patrol team, the five hundred cavalry soldiers were more like a whole. They followed orders and each of them had a murderous aura of the battlefield. It was obvious that they were a selected elite force!

Their patrol teams are much more loose.

Song Changming estimated that if the patrol team were on horseback, they would most likely not be able to withstand several rounds of fierce charges from the cavalry.

But once they dismounted, the combat power of the elite warriors of the General Patrol Guard was undoubtedly stronger than that of the soldiers.

The team galloped for most of the day without stopping.

It was not until the horses could hardly hold on that they finally made contact with the approaching convoy.

"Are the people ahead sent by County Magistrate Xiao?" a scout asked loudly.

"That's right. I'm here to pick someone up on the order of the county magistrate." Captain Fan Yun, the highest-ranking official in the team, responded.

"Do you have a token?" a scout asked cautiously.

Fan Yun then looked at Xie Shihuan standing beside him.

The handover token sent by the higher-ups was not with him, and would most likely only be in the hands of the director general.

"Yes!" Xie Shihuan said loudly and was about to step forward.

"Sir, please let me take him there." Lu Zheng was worried about Xie Shihuan's safety, so he kicked his horse's belly and stepped forward.

"No, the token can only be held by me, and no one else is allowed to see it." Xie Shihuan shook his head.

"Then at least let me go with you." Upon hearing this, Lu Zheng immediately changed his words.

"Okay, you and Song Changming come with me, and the rest of you lead the team." Xie Shihuan nodded and gave the order.
