Fox Road Travel Notes

Looking at the huge copper lock on the main room door, Chen Zican pulled hard and it didn't move.

He turned around to look for stones, then looked back, only to find Leopard standing by the door with his arms crossed.

The lock has already been opened.

Chen Zican threw away the stone in his hand and smiled proudly.

He felt that he was really wise in agreeing to General Song to keep this helper.

In the main room, he just looked through it hastily and found nothing useful.

To the right is the old man's bedroom, where several packets of Chinese medicine were found.

He looked carefully, picked out two packages and stuffed them into his arms.

There are wing rooms on both sides, and the west end is where the servant girl lives. It is next to the kitchen. Chen Zican didn't even look at it.

At the east end is Min Jingzong's bedroom, which is connected to the study.

This is Chen Zican's most important goal today.

He quickly rummaged through the bedroom, working with both hands to recover while searching.

In a short time, I had searched this small room, but found nothing.

Chen Zican frowned and walked a few steps in the room, always feeling that he had missed something.

After thinking about it, he took out the two Chinese medicine packets found in the main room from his arms, opened them carefully, put them to his nose and smelled them.

He quickly walked over, opened the cabinet beside Min Jingzong's bed, and took out a pack of Chinese medicine.

The same paper, the same folding method, there is no doubt that these two packages of herbal medicine came from the same pharmacy.

I opened it again and smelled it. Obviously, these packets of medicine were not the same prescription.

Although Chen Zican knew nothing about traditional Chinese medicine, he could still distinguish the strong smell of medicine.

After thinking for a moment, he stuffed the packet of medicine into his arms.

Then, entered the study room.

The study room is simple and elegantly decorated, with many paintings and calligraphy hanging on the walls, of varying levels of quality. They are not written by famous artists, but are mostly gifts from scholars in the county school.

It's just that the picture of green pines welcoming guests in the middle is signed with Master Qi's name.

Behind the desk is a whole wall of bookshelves.

Chen Zican rummaged through it quickly. It seemed that Min Jingzong had a lot of knowledge. Books on three religions and nine schools were randomly displayed, and no interest or preference could be seen.

It's just that there are really few authentic Confucian classics.

It seems that he is not a person who loves to learn.

While he was rummaging around, Leopard came in silently and was stunned when he saw Chen Zican's dazzling technique.

He whispered: "I'm back. If I have half a cup of tea, I'll go to the alley..."

Chen Zican hummed and did not look back.

His hands suddenly accelerated, passing through the rows of books like a breeze, like butterflies turning over flowers, or dragonflies touching the water, so fast that it was dizzying.

What's even more amazing is that when he looked through it with his right hand and returned the items in his left hand, there was no mistake at all.

Suddenly, he stopped his hand and pulled out a thin manuscript.

I turned to the middle, read the content carefully, checked it with Min Jingzong's handwriting on the desk, and frowned...

"You still have about fifty breaths left!"

There was a hint of urgency in Leopard's voice.

Chen Zican stuffed the volume into his arms: "Let's go!"

The two walked into the courtyard, and Chen Zican found that the door to the main room had been locked again.

I can’t help but sigh: “A master is a master!”

Approaching the back wall, the two of them climbed over the wall and exited. Outside the courtyard gate, they could already hear Mr. Min's energetic voice.

After walking a long distance one after another, Leopard asked: "Is there anything gained this time?"

Chen Zican stopped and took out the book from his arms.

Looking at the words ""Stone Book" Zhang Dai" on the cover, I was silent.

"Is this the evidence?"

Leopard's tone was unusually anxious.

Chen Zican shook his head: "This is not evidence, but it can make Min Jingzong's family lose their heads..."

Leopard's eyes lit up: "Then, why don't we -"

"Why not use this to threaten Min Jingzong and ask him to withdraw the lawsuit?"

A hint of sarcasm appeared on Chen Zican's lips: "No, no!"

"Why?" Leopard was a little angry.

Chen Zican was a little disappointed: "Because, while it can make Min Jingzong lose his head, it can also make other people lose their heads."

"Losing the heads of many loyal ministers and righteous men! And..."

He hesitated to speak, but what he wanted to say was: Moreover, many historical truths are hidden in the manuscripts of these survivors of the previous dynasty.

They recorded the heroism of the Ming Dynasty and the bloody nature of Han'er. He couldn't let them be burned down just because of the things in front of him.

The leopard's face changes color.

He nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

"So, don't use this lightly unless absolutely necessary!"

"However, it should be very useful..."

Chen Zican smiled slightly and stuffed the scroll back.

"Then, what are we doing now?" Leopard was a little depressed.

"You can take a look at the scenery while I go to the pharmacy."

Early the next morning, Chen Zican still ordered two bowls of noodles from the counter, and then went out to buy sesame cakes.

But as soon as they left the inn, the leopard came out from around the corner.

He was holding a paper bag in his hand, and inside were a dozen sesame seed cakes.

"It's the fourth day!"

He stuffed sesame seed cakes to Chen Zican.

Chen Zican smiled, this expert was actually anxious sometimes.

Leopard stared into his eyes: "What are we doing today?"

"Well, today, you have an important task..." Chen Zican smiled slyly.

The leopard still stared at him, silent.

Chen Zican touched his nose and said, "Today, go and stare at the toilet of Min Jingzong's house."

"what?"

"Well, you heard that right, toilet."

"After everyone in his family uses the toilet, you have to go in and check carefully."

"Of course, I'm not asking you to watch people go to the toilet, but to watch them defecate!"

Leopard is usually taciturn and always has a calm expression.

At this time, he couldn't help but became furious: "You asked me to watch poop all day? Do you know that I -"

Chen Zican saw his eyebrows raised and his face full of murderous intent, and he quickly said: "Brother, this is really important!"

"I definitely didn't mean to tease you."

Leopard slowly calmed down his anger: "It's over, you must give me an explanation..."

Seeing the leopard's sturdy figure turning the corner, Chen Zican wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Damn, masters are really scary!

Just now he was getting ready to go, but Chen Zican felt that his whole body suddenly fell into the cold quagmire, and he could not move his hands and feet.

It seems that this is also a kind of field.

Although it is far from as magical and powerful as Cang Haijun.

Could it be that this man who followed General Song like a shadow and ran around for him actually had skills close to the master level?

It seems that General Song is not simple as expected. It seems that he has always underestimated him.

At sunset, the leopard rode a fast horse and left the city overnight.

And this night, the lights in Chen Zican's room stayed on until very late.

Before the east was white, Chen Zican had already stood up.

After sorting out all his thoughts and making plans for all possible problems, he began to wait quietly for that moment, the moment that would determine the outcome.

A moment of revenge for Widow Lu’s family and the victims who had been wronged.

At midnight, Kou'er arranged his clothes, combed his hair and washed his face.

When he walked into the gate of the county government office, the dazzling morning sunshine was just scattered all over the clay plaque with the four words "Justice and Brightness" written on it.

There was a carriage parked next to the county government office, and two big men. Chen Zican waved to them, picked up the drumstick, and beat the Dengwen drum without hesitation.

The drums were beating loudly, waking up the entire county government office.

The drums were beating loudly, and all the elders gathered in the city.
