I'm the best catcher in martial arts
Chapter 4 The storm is coming
"Jingzhou was called Jiangling and Yingdu in ancient times.
It is said that floods in ancient times flowed across different regions without distinguishing between regions. After Dayu controlled the floods, they were divided into Ji, Yan, Qing, Xu, Yang, Jing, Yu, Liang and Yong, a total of nine states.
After thousands of years of development, the land of Jingxiang has formed a wonderful folk culture, the oldest of which is the Jingchu culture, which lasts for more than 400 years..."
Traveling is a boring thing, especially when the weather is so hot. Riding a horse and galloping will make you sweat.
In order to distract Lu Jianxing, Shen Lian told Lu Jianxing about the history of Jingxiang and learned about the talents of Jingzhou.
It's a pity that Lu Jianxing, a rough old man, has never been interested in these things: "Second brother, I am a rough man who doesn't understand this. Tell me about the famous people in Jingchu."
Shen Lian smiled and said: "If we want to say that the most famous person in Jingxiang land, the first one must be the King of Chuzhuang."
Lu Jianxing said: "King Chuzhuang? I have heard of this name. Is it the one who made a name for himself?"
Shen Lian added: "If you don't fly for three years, you will soar into the sky. If you don't sing for three years, you will become a blockbuster."
"I remember that during the Three Kingdoms period of the Later Han Dynasty, Jingzhou was very lively. Why wasn't the most famous person Liu Bei and Guan Yu? How could he become the King of Chuzhuang?"
Lu Jianxing likes to listen to books on weekdays, especially about loyal ministers, good generals, and brotherly loyalty. He is very, very interested in the stories of the Three Kingdoms of the Later Han Dynasty.
Shen Lian explained: "Liu Bei once occupied part of Jingzhou, but he was not born here. If you think about it this way, there are too many people who meet the conditions."
"Don't talk about this, let's get down to business. Second brother, you said that you should travel lightly this time. I listened to you and only brought eighteen people, including twenty of us.
Those small families naturally dare not take action against Jin Yiwei, but if they are pushed into a hurry and the Jingxiang martial arts community joins forces, we will turn into flesh in an instant.
Tell me, what's your plan?
Don't think I don't know, Shen Yumen is eyeing Jing Xiang, the fat guy. Do you want Shen Yumen to rush in and kill him? Will this loss be too great?
Listen to me, it’s most convenient for me to do it!
If you let me lead the three hundred Jin Yiwei, and use Ling Tuisi's excuse to plow the land several times and clean up Jingzhou, then your brother..."
Lu Jianxing touched the Yanling knife at his waist.
Every Jin Yiwei is a killer. Lu Jianxing's ability to become a governor depends not only on the gold and silver that Shen refined, but also on the merits of charging bravely and licking the blood of the sword.
Shen Lian rubbed his head helplessly.
"Haha, the Jin Yiwei is charging at the front, and my eldest brother is taking advantage from behind. Do you think he can still hang out in the world? He has become a public enemy in the world."
"What do you want?"
"Investigating the case. The imperial court's task is to investigate the case. My duty is to investigate the case. Apart from the investigation, I don't care about anything else. You must not meddle in others' affairs."
"You mean, the water in Jingzhou is very muddy?"
Lu Jianxing is by no means a brave and ruthless man, but he just likes to use the simplest means to achieve his goals.
After hearing Shen Lian's words, he immediately understood that Ling Tuisi's murder was not an isolated incident, but a person or force deliberately muddying the waters for some benefit.
"From the time I set out until now, I have seen spies from Liufenbantang, Qingyi House, Jinfeng Xiaoyu House, Qian Gang and other sects, a total of 136 people.
When we arrive in Jingzhou, how many spies do you think will come from the major forces? How many experts will participate?
If it were a vendetta, love and hatred, would it attract so many powerful spies?
What kind of interests would allow the person behind the scenes to assassinate a fourth-grade prefect? What kind of drama would be worthy of starting with the life of a fourth-grade official?
Don't the people behind the scenes know that assassinating Ling Tuisi will attract Liumenmen, Jinyiwei, and Dongchang?
he knows!
But he still chose to do it!
Because the benefits were so great that he ignored the risks. I even thought that this person would definitely release some information to attract more people. "
Lu Jianxing gently rubbed the stubble on his chin and said with some anticipation: "The picture is not small, I want to see what big treasure Jingzhou hides!"
Shen Lian joked: "Maybe it is the bird wings left by King Zhuang of Chu, or the Jiuding of Emperor Zhou, or it may be the formation-breaking spear of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu."
“What are bird wings used for?”
"Bake it and eat it!"
…
Since ancient times, strong dragons cannot suppress local snakes. Although there is no big martial arts sect in Jingxiang, they are all small families, but the network of relationships is extremely complicated, and a single move can affect the whole body.
Due to the assassination of Ling Tuisi, the prefect of Jingzhou, everyone in the local gangs is in danger. In recent days, rumors have spread in Jingzhou city that there is a city-wide treasure hidden in the city.
With intricate forces inside, powerful dragons from all major forces outside, and conspirators behind the scenes, Jingzhou has gathered the momentum of a storm that is about to come.
The arrival of Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing was like dropping a stone, causing countless splashes.
However, the two of them did not go to check on the martial arts people. Instead, they went straight to the county government office to check on Ling Tuisi's body.
After arriving, I realized that the matter was far more serious than imagined. It was not just Ling Tuisi who was assassinated. All Fa Cao, Yin Cao, and Sima of Jingzhou were assassinated.
In the entire Jingzhou government office, the one with the highest official position at present is the Jiangling County Magistrate. He smells strongly of alcohol and is as sluggish as a gambling dog who has lost all his family property.
Seeing Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing, the county magistrate neither saw a savior nor trembled with fear. Instead, he simply fell down and snored immediately.
Lu Jianxing was very dissatisfied with this and immediately wanted to punish the county magistrate for neglecting his superior. Shen Lian smiled, persuaded Lu Jianxing, and asked the yamen to send the county magistrate home.
“Brother, it’s really not easy for this county magistrate.
First of all, all the senior officials of the state government were assassinated. He became the person with the highest official position, so he was naturally frightened.
Secondly, during these days, I don’t know how many martial arts people are secretly investigating the government office. These people are all lawless people. The county magistrate will definitely not be able to sleep well at night.
In the end, even if he was guilty, it was because the current situation was beyond the limit of his abilities. How could he, a small county magistrate, become the prefect?
To be able to persist for such a long time in such a depressing situation is a sign of great official integrity.
To put it bluntly, even if he is incompetent, even if he is guilty, he is the official who is most familiar with the matter. If we deal with him, who should we ask for information? "
Lu Jianxing snorted coldly: "I hear you, let's go see the body first. If it's well preserved, I'll spare him this time. If it's not well preserved... hum!"
The bodies were all kept in the morgue.
The weather was hot and the body was prone to decay, so the county magistrate specially prepared ice cubes, autopsy procedures, and crime scene records.
Lu Jianxing nodded: "This guy did a pretty good job, I'll spare him this...bring the county magistrate to me immediately and splash him with ice water to wake him up!"
But it was Lu Jianxing who lifted up the white cloth and found that Ling Tuisi's body had been severely decayed. In some places, the skin and flesh were even worn away, and his true appearance could no longer be seen clearly.
Shen Lian narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Wu Zuo: "I remember that these corpses all need to be embalmed."
Wuzuo knelt down and begged: "Replying to your lord, I have already taken care of it. This matter has nothing to do with me!"
Lu Jianxing's eyes flashed fiercely, and the evil energy that almost solidified hit Wu Zuo's mind crazily. Wu Zuo was so frightened that he shivered, cried loudly, and urinated feces and urine.
Shen Lian did not press him for questioning, but examined the corpses in detail and found that the corpses in the morgue were more or less decayed, all caused by man-made decay.
The corpse was embalmed, but someone used a strange poison to turn the embalming agent into accelerating decay, making the decay ten times faster.
If they had come a few days later, most of these corpses would have turned into bones, and there would be nothing Song Ci could do if he came.
Lu Jianxing sighed: "This matter was probably done by martial arts masters. Second brother, who is the strongest martial arts force in Jiangling City? Let's go visit one or two."
Shen Lian smiled and said: "In Jiangling City, the strongest one is Wan Zhenshan, and outside Jiangling City is Wudang Rouyun Temple. My eldest brother is going to visit the Wan family, and I am going to visit Wudang."
"Why didn't I go to Rouyun Temple?"
"I'm afraid that you will be subdued by the Taoist priest!"
