Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 115 Don't Die Under the Sword of the Jianghu People

In less than a quarter of an hour, Qin Zhiyong turned back to the Yamen of Zhenfusi.

Wang Zhengyuan asked: "What do you want to do? As I said, our Zhenfu Department will not take care of vendettas. If you want to recruit people, you don't even think about it. No one wants to go crazy with you."

Qin Zhiyong said: "Don't worry, my lord. Since the lower officials have decided to investigate the massacre of the Escort by themselves, they will never recruit people from the Zhenfu Division. I want to pay some salary in advance. It is impossible to go out without some money to defend yourself. "

Wang Zhengyuan said angrily: "How much?"

Qin Zhiyong said, "20 taels."

Wang Zhengyuan stared at Qin Zhiyong, took a deep breath, and said, "Come pick up the silver tomorrow morning."

Qin Zhiyong clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, my lord."

Wang Zhengyuan felt that Qin Zhiyong was a bit contemptuous of his superiors, and he didn't even listen to his own words.In some matters, Qin Zhiyong fully cooperated with Wang Zhengyuan, but in some matters, Qin Zhiyong became the "stab head" in the Zhenfu Department.Stubborn.

If other people were like this, Wang Zhengyuan would have kicked him out of the Fusi Yamen a long time ago.However, Qin Zhiyong was a scholar whom he recruited with great difficulty, and he was also the first scholar in a case. If he was easily deprived of his status as Jinyiwei, he would not only be laughed at by the magistrate's yamen, but also face shame himself.

More importantly, he was reluctant to part with Qin Zhiyong.

It's not that the imperial court is unwilling to take care of the affairs of the major sects, but that the major sects are quite powerful, plus their martial arts and swordsmanship are superb, and they come and go.Even if the imperial court wanted to control it, it was powerless.

However, seeing that Qin Zhiyong could send out sword energy and his sword skills were as fast as lightning, Wang Zhengyuan speculated that Qin Zhiyong might be a hidden master of sword skills.

If the people from the Qingcheng faction can be arrested, it will definitely be a great achievement.

Afterwards, Wang Zhengyuan shook his head again.The head of the Qingcheng faction, Yu Canghai, is a formidable character who has been famous for a long time in the arena. If he wants to arrest him, Qin Zhiyong is by no means able to do it.

Qin Zhiyong was lucky not to die under Yu Canghai's sword.

It wasn't that Wang Zhengyuan didn't believe in Qin Zhiyong's ability, it was because he had preconceptions that Yu Canghai was too powerful.Qin Zhiyong has cultivated sword qi, which is powerful, but Yu Canghai has also cultivated sword qi.

Wang Zhengyuan immediately wrote a letter to the capital, informing the commanding envoy that Qin Zhiyong wanted to investigate the massacre of the Fuwei Escort.

………………

When Qin Zhiyong left Zhen Fusi, the first place he went to was the Fuwei Escort.

There were a lot of footprints and blackened bloodstains on the ground in the escort agency.

There are still many sword marks on the walls and pillars.

These traces are left over from the fighting.

Qin Zhiyong is not an expert in trace science, but he is a mathematician.After surveying, sampling, categorizing, analyzing, and summarizing, a lot of valuable information was obtained.

It hasn't rained for two days.

The traces are relatively intact.

The footprints on the ground seem to be chaotic, but it is not difficult to identify and judge.

Escort masters, Qingcheng faction disciples, and headhunters all wore uniformly customized clothes and shoes.Qin Zhiyong knew exactly what kind of shoes the headhunters in the magistrate's yamen wore and what kind of footprints they could make.Then the remaining footprints must be those of the escort and the disciples of the Qingcheng School.

An ordinary long sword is about three feet long.

Based on the footprints on the ground, the sword marks on the walls and pillars, and based on the mechanics of the human body, Qin Zhiyong built a mathematical model in his mind to simulate the scene where the disciples of the Qingcheng School swung their swords to kill.

Mathematical modeling to restore the scene at that time may be biased, but it is definitely not far from the truth.

Qin Zhiyong used charcoal to draw stick figures on the white paper, in different postures, all with sword movements.

If people from the Qingcheng faction saw it, they would definitely turn pale with shock.Because the movements and postures of these stick figures drawn by Qin Zhiyong are demonstrating the Qingcheng swordsmanship.

Although there is no Qingcheng school's internal strength and mentality, it is shocking to be able to deduce a school's swordsmanship by observing footprints and sword marks on the wall.

After collecting trace information, Qin Zhiyong said: "The traces of sword energy are different from the marks left by long swords. There are 16 disciples of the Qingcheng School who broke into Fuwei Escort and committed murder, and they did not leave traces of sword energy. It shows that their martial arts and sword skills are not enough to emit sword energy."

Those who can emit sword energy and sword energy are real masters.

Of the entire Qingcheng faction, Yu Canghai may be the only one who can practice sword qi.

Even if the disciples of the Qingcheng School didn't practice sword qi, their martial arts and swordsmanship were much stronger than the bodyguards of the Fuwei Escort Bureau. The 16 people faced dozens of bodyguards, and the bodyguards had no power to fight back.

Qin Zhiyong looked up at the sun.

Today's weather is fine, sunny and sunny.The escort agency was a bit gloomy and cold, as if the surroundings were filled with "dead energy", and the grievances were still alive.

Qin Zhiyong's perception is keen, and he knows that this is not an illusion.

Qin Zhiyong didn't know whether there were ghosts in the world, but dozens of people in the escort agency were killed, and the aura and magnetic field in the house did change.If the Escort's house remains abandoned for a long time, and the aura and magnetic field are not improved, there may be "supernatural" incidents.

In layman's terms, it may be "haunted".

One side raises one person.

Humans and the environment have a mutually reinforcing relationship.

Troubles come out of poor mountains and bad waters.

Outstanding people come out of sages.

Fengshui magnetic field is a very magical thing, and Qin Zhiyong has not researched it yet.

Based on his feeling, Qin Zhiyong walked to a special position in the escort agency.This special position is actually a node in the Feng Shui aura in the Escort.

Although Qin Zhiyong is not a sage, he is a scholar with a high state of mind and a peaceful aura.His breath interfered with the surrounding Feng Shui aura.In less than a quarter of an hour, the aura and magnetic field in the escort agency changed, the dead air in the room dissipated, and the atmosphere was no longer gloomy.

It seems that the "unjust souls" have been reincarnated.

The virtuous people of Buddhism and Taoism practice deeds for the dead and save the souls of the dead. In fact, what they do is to improve the feng shui atmosphere in the house.However, the vast majority are liars, and there are too few truly virtuous and intelligent people.

Qin Zhiyong said softly: "There are too many injustices in the world, and there are too many grievances in the world, but I still believe that there is righteousness in the world. Justice is at ease in people's hearts. Don't worry, Qin, as a guard in Jinyi, with the salary of the imperial court, will definitely ask for it for you. To be fair, I will not let you die in vain under the sword of the Qingcheng sect."

In his place, seek his government.

Don't forget your original intention and do your own job well.easy to say, hard to do.

Qin Zhiyong left the Escort Bureau and continued to investigate.The bodyguards are all locals of Fuzhou Prefecture, their names, ages, and family status are all easy to find out.

After the visit, it was already evening.

As soon as Qin Zhiyong arrived at the door of his house, he ran into Aunt Sun.

"Zhiyong, you haven't eaten yet." Aunt Sun said enthusiastically, "I've already made dinner, come over quickly and have dinner."

Qin Zhiyong rubbed his belly, and he was really hungry: "Okay. Aunt Sun, I'll change clothes and come right over."

After working in the yamen of Zhenfusi, Qin Zhiyong usually ate in the yamen, and only occasionally came back to cook.

Qin Zhiyong bought grain and oil from the one-month salary he received before, and sent it to Aunt Sun's house.Now that he went to Aunt Sun's house for dinner, he felt at ease and was not afraid of adding burden to Aunt Sun's family.

…………

Qin Zhiyong took off his flying fish suit, put on coarse linen clothes, and came to Aunt Sun's house.

The food is already on the table.

Qin Zhiyong said with a smile: "Uncle Sun, Aunt Sun, Sister Qian'er, I'm here to eat again."

Aunt Sun said, "Zhiyong, sit down quickly."

Earlier, Aunt Sun and the others were a little worried when they learned that Qin Zhiyong had joined Jinyiwei.Seeing Qin Zhiyong, I was always a little afraid.

Jin Yiwei left a huge shadow on the common people.

When they learned that Qin Zhiyong was still the same as before and hadn't changed because he became Jinyiwei, the family was relieved.

Qin Zhiyong took a bite of the food and said, "Aunt Sun, Uncle Sun, I'm leaving Fuzhou to investigate the case."

Uncle Sun asked, "I don't know what case to investigate?"

Qin Zhiyong hesitated for a moment, and said truthfully, "It's the case of the Fuwei Escort Bureau exterminating the family."

Aunt Sun and Sun Qian's expressions changed drastically.

Sun Qian said worriedly: "Brother Qin, I heard that the tragedy in the Escort Bureau was a vendetta. The government generally doesn't care about vendettas..."

Qin Zhiyong said: "Human life is at stake. Dozens of lives are involved, how can we ignore it?"

Sun Qian said: "Then can someone else check?"

Qin Zhiyong shook his head.If you don't investigate the case yourself, if you don't arrest the Qingcheng faction, who else can go?
Qin Zhiyong said: "Uncle Sun, Aunt Sun, I plan to take sister Qian'er along this time. It is said that there is a miracle doctor in Kaifeng called Ping Yizhi. I will take sister Qian'er to him and ask him to treat her leg problems. Maybe it can make sister Xi'er stand up."

Aunt Sun said excitedly, "Can you really make Qian'er stand up and walk?"

For the sake of her daughter, Mrs. Sun was heartbroken.

Qin Zhiyong said: "Always give it a try. I will work together peacefully. Of course it would be best if I can cure sister Qian'er. Even if there is nothing I can do, the situation will not be worse than it is now."

Uncle Sun sighed, his eyes full of worry: "I'm afraid the journey is long...it's too dangerous."

When it comes to the case of vendetta, Qin Zhiyong is going to investigate and arrest the criminals. Uncle Sun can imagine the degree of danger.

Qin Zhiyong looked confident and said, "Don't worry, you two elders, I have enough ability to protect the safety of sister Qian'er."

…………

next morning.

Qin Zhiyong paid 20 taels of silver in advance at the Yamen of Zhenfusi, and brought back a fine horse.

That's all Wang Zhengyuan can do to help Qin Zhiyong.

At the Qin Zhiyong and Qingcheng party, as for life or death, it was not a matter that Wang Zhengyuan, a Jinyiwei family, could control.

Qin Zhiyong personally built a comfortable carriage.

Sun Qian's legs and feet are not convenient, so she has to take a carriage.

Qin Zhiyong helped Sun Qian into the car, and brought dry food and water.When leaving, Qin Zhiyong left ten taels of silver to Aunt Sun and Uncle Sun.Ten taels of silver is a huge sum of money for ordinary people.Enough for Uncle Sun and Aunt Sun to live comfortably for a long time.

The carriage moved slowly out of Fuzhou City.

Wang Zhengyuan stood on the city wall.

Watching Qin Zhiyong's carriage go away, he thought to himself: "Qin Zhiyong, you must come back alive. You are stubborn and admit death, but no matter what, you are a scholar and a talent. If you die by the sword of Jiang Hu It would be such a pity.”
