Qinghua Town Series

Looking expectantly at the man below.

The person below was obviously frightened by him, and reacted blankly, "My lord, I..."

"Hey... feel free to ask if you have any requests. You are the first one to apply for the job. Everything is easy to discuss." After speaking, he continued to look at the people below with bright eyes. , so more people come.

The people below were almost shrunk into a ball under Qin Can's eyes. They lowered their heads and muttered for a long time before stammering, "My lord, the grassroots are not here to apply for the job..."

"What did you say?"

Qin Can slapped the table, shaking the magistrate to jump up, and the person below was also very frightened, trembling like chaff.

Qin Can pressed his temples with his hands, and his face sank, "What did you say...you say it again!"

The man below trembled in fright at Qin Can's high-pitched voice, then closed his eyes and replied loudly, "My lord, the Caomin is not here to apply for the job, the Caomin is here to collect the vegetable money, and the magistrate still owes the little one." Twenty liters of money for vegetables..." The more I said, the softer my voice was, "I don't know if I should ask the adults for it..." Shivering into a ball again.

Qin Can almost spit out a mouthful of blood, and pointed at him "you you you" for a long time, his chest heaved and heaved, he finally calmed down, but his face was very ugly.

He looked at the person below with this expression as if he was about to pounce on him and bite him. After a while, he took out the money bag from his sleeve pocket, poured two taels of silver into his palm, and with a flick of his hand, the silver ingot was thrown to the person. In front of the ground.

"This is a number with interest."

When the man saw the silver ingot on the ground, his eyes lit up, he rushed over to pick it up, wiped it on his clothes, then handed it to his mouth and bit it with his teeth. Seeing that it was real, he held it in both hands and thanked him, "Xie County Lord, thank you County Lord !"

The man retreated towards the door while talking, didn't pay attention to his footsteps, tripped over the threshold, fell to the ground, got up and continued to thank him until he couldn't see anyone.

Qin Can glanced at the magistrate who was squatting beside him and was licking his paw, and rubbed it with the toe of his boot, "Did you hear, he is thanking you?"

"Oh?" The magistrate of the county naturally couldn't understand what Qin Can said, and only thought that Qin Can wanted to give it something to eat. He raised his head and stuck out his tongue, looking at Qin Can eagerly.

Qin Can pursed his lips, feeling extremely bored.

In the next few days, even half of the applicants were still invisible, and the enthusiasm of the county magistrate shrank from the initial high flames to the small size of a bean.

"Why didn't anyone come?" Qin Can put his hands on his cheeks, his face full of depression.

The county magistrate walked around at his feet. After Qin Can came, the food was much better than before, and every time it was time for dinner, the county magistrate was very happy.

The old man brought the steaming food in front of Qin Can, and the county magistrate immediately ran to his bowl and squatted down.

"This place is no better than the capital city. There are only a few people who can read and write. They are all wealthy families. Who will do the drudgery of this month's food that only costs more than a dozen hu?"

Qin Can nodded, thinking that what the old man said made sense, why didn't he think that most of the people here were illiterate, no wonder no one paid attention to the notice after it was posted for several days.

Then change the way, but... what way to change?

The next day, the just-rising sun hung over the roof of the house, and the rosy morning light caused the stone lions at the gate of the county government to cast long shadows on the ground, and the mist was dispersed little by little.

The people in Qinghua Town were about to start their ordinary day like every day in the past, the county government gate slowly opened, and a foot in brand-new official boots protruded from the crack of the door, followed by cyan Qin Can walked out with a belt in his hand, and stood at the gate of the county government office with his feet spread apart.

The vendors who were busy setting up stalls on the street looked towards him.

"Cough!" Qin Can cleared his throat, and then said loudly, "Dear folks──! Dear elders──! This official is the new magistrate of Longtai County. Since he took office, he has decided to clean up the people's morals and sweep away the decadent and chaotic atmosphere here. We are now recruiting a number of Yamen servants, and the salary is good, so hurry up!"

After the words fell, there was silence. Those people had already been busy with their own business and ignored him. Some people gathered around him, but they all looked at him blankly.

Qin Can frowned, crossed his hips, raised his voice a little, and repeated the words just now. Seeing that no one responded, he was annoyed, but he couldn't get angry, and said unwillingly, "Applicant and hired Send an acre of fertile land!"

The crowd of onlookers increased, but no one made a sound.

Qin Can can only continue to add benefits, "The county government that has not yet married a wife will help to be a matchmaker, and the gift money will be borne by the county government!"

There were a few young and strong boys below, and they started discussing quietly in a very small voice.

Qin Can saw that there seemed to be something going on, so he added another condition, "If there are elderly people in the family, the county government will also be responsible for all expenses for medical treatment and funeral!"

As soon as this remark came out, the voices of discussion became louder. Some people frowned in doubt, while others nodded in agreement. After discussing for a while, the voices stopped, and finally someone in the crowd raised his hands tremblingly and said, "My lord, Caomin ..." But before he could finish his sentence, he saw a person running over panting.

"Heiyun Jiulongzhai is distributing money and food at the foot of the mountain, everyone hurry up! If you go late, it will be gone!"

Whoa!

Like the tide, the crowd dispersed completely, and even the hawkers who set up stalls ran away regardless of their stalls, and Qin Can was left standing there in the whole street.

Qin Can stared blankly at the empty street in front of him. Hearing the sound of "slapping" at his feet, he lowered his head and saw the magistrate licking his paws. ?”

"Oh?" The county magistrate looked up at him, then looked at the distance, stood up suddenly, wagged his tail wildly, and ran out with his feet.

"Damn it, I gave you something to eat and drink, and then ran to other people's place!"

Qin Can raised his fist to chase after it, but the magistrate had already disappeared. Qin Can stopped after only two steps, put down his hand in resentment, and stared at the street far away. , then turned around with a flick of his sleeves, and returned to the county office resentfully.

Butterfly Cup 3

When eating at night, the dishes were much better, and even the meat and bones in the bowl of the county magistrate were bigger than before. Of course, the old man did not forget to tell Qin Can that he got it from Heiyun Jiulongzhai during the day. Seeing how old he was, he was given an extra amount of food and money.

Qin Can was not yet noble enough to say "no" to the food, so he could only change his strategy, and gorged himself on the food on the table with the idea of ​​making Heiyun Jiulongzhai poor.

"I don't understand why Heiyun Jiulongzhai did this? If you have a lot of money and have nowhere to spend it, why are you a bandit?"

Hearing Qin Can's question, the old man burst out laughing, his facial features were all wrinkled together, he smiled for a while before saying:

"Of course it is to buy people's hearts and make them fight against the government... Honest officials are deadly enemies, of course they will drive them away. Those corrupt officials are a waste of food if they are kept. It is best that no one cares about them. They are here. You can do what you want to be king and hegemony.”

"It's unreasonable!" Qin Can slapped the chopsticks in his hand on the table, "It's simply too lawless! Is there any law?!"

The old man got up and added another bowl of rice to Qin Can, "Wang Fa can't control this place... But if it weren't for those people on the mountain, life here would be hard... What about you, clean up after eating this bowl of rice." Pack up and leave here, there is really no need for the magistrate here..."

The county magistrate raised his ears and looked up at the old man when he heard these three words, and yelled "Aww", as if he was asking what he was called to do.The old man threw a meaty bone in front of him to it, and laughed at it, "I didn't mention you, why are you so energetic?"

"Aww..."

The county magistrate lowered his head and continued to gnaw on the bone with a "click click".

Qin Can picks up the bowl and picks up the rice silently. The more the old man said that, the less he intends to give up. Qin Can has no other skills, but he has a lot of stubborn temper.

But for the next three years in Qinghua Town, although Qin Can has a temper, he has no idea.

"Old man, you listen to those bandits so much, but if you let those bandits work in the county government, are you helping those bandits, or helping the bandits who have become government officials?" Qin Can had a whim .

The old man hesitated for a moment, "It's hard to answer. Even if they are from the government, they are still from Heiyun Jiulong Village, but the people from Heiyun Jiulong Village have always been against the government... Hey, this..."

Qin Can looked at the old man, and seemed to see some signs of this problem.

squeaking──

With a hoarse sound of hinges, the door was pushed open, and the room was pitch black, and the moonlight falling outside outlined the slender figure of the person who pushed the door, and the wide and long sword in his hand.

Yan San walked into the room, put the green calf knife on the table, then took out the fire pocket to light a candle.At the moment when the flames lit up, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a figure in the room. Yan San threw away the fire pocket with one hand, picked up the green calf knife on the table, jumped over the table, and drew the knife out at the same time. sheath……

Keng!

A cold light streaked across the silvery knife.

Yan San held his breath, looked over by the moonlight outside the window, and found that the figure that flashed by just now was his own figure reflected in the bronze mirror.

The soft silver light fell in, but the person reflected in the mirror had a delicate and delicate face, but a stern expression, full of murderous aura.

Yan San's tense body loosened along with the tense string in his head, at the same time he let out a long breath, put away the green calf knife and lit the candle again.

The bean-sized flames jumped up and fell into Yan San's eyes, sparkling. Yan San stared at the candle flame for a moment, then turned to look at the bronze mirror.

He doesn't like this body, because it has happened more than once like just now. He often glances inadvertently out of the corner of his eye, and sees another person's face in the copper mirror and rippling water. real feeling.

Yan San is dead...

People in the world often say that the death of the body is the real death.

Then Yan San, who has been buried, should be dead.But who is this person standing here now...?

It was Yan San...but it was no longer the original Yan San.

He dresses as usual, speaks and behaves in the old style. Although the people in the cottage didn't adapt to it for a while, they got used to it over time. Nothing seems to have changed about that majestic Yan San.

However, people who have always been unacceptable...

is himself.

Even though martial arts can be practiced again, and the tattoos have inexplicably landed on this body, but no matter what, this body is still called Cen Xi.Yan San is a soul, a name imposed on this body, so he is also confused whether he should be Cen Xi or Yan San now.

Looking at the figure in the mirror that still felt strange no matter how many times he looked at it, Yan San raised his hand to touch this overly handsome face. In his impression, this young man who was kidnapped up the mountain with Qin Can was beautiful, gentle and intelligent, and had a good manner It's completely different from that stupid monkey who bluffs at every turn.

It can be seen that he should have been born in a good family and had a good family education. If he was in the city, he might be a young man who would overwhelm the matchmakers.

It's just that this kind of person is not quite like a bandit, so he can't get up the energy to go down the mountain to do business. He even met a gentle Confucian businessman before who asked himself if he had no choice but to become a bandit, saying that as long as he wanted to , he can let himself find a job in his shop, although he can't make much money, at least he can get enough food and clothing...

Thinking of this, Yan San's mouth curled up, and he sneered, what a fool!

But he let the Confucian businessman go, leaving only his silver taels.

Yan San withdrew his thoughts, raised his hand and scratched the face reflected in the bronze mirror with his finger.

In fact, he really wanted to leave a few scars on this face. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to break the delicateness and add a bit of roughness and ferocity that bandits should have.

But whenever he had this thought, Qin Can's voice always sounded in his ears.

"Why can't you take good care of Cen Xi's body? You've already shaved your hair, dressed like a wild man in the mountains, and this tattoo, now you've got injuries all over the place, what else do you want? How did Cen Xi offend you?" You, you want to treat him like this? Cen Xi is a literati, his hands are used to paint and write poems, and later they will be used to investigate cases, not to wield knives and guns for you to do those rude things!"

Can't help but sigh, "It's really a stupid monkey!" Stop thinking about it, take off your clothes and go behind the screen to take a shower and wash.

Butterfly Cup 4

Early the next morning, Qin Can went up to Yunlong Mountain.

Because of saving Yan San with Cen Xi's body, Qin Can's treatment in Yunlong Mountain was much better than when he first came here. The people in the village were very polite when they saw him. He walked up a few steps and hugged his shoulders, giving him a big hug, like a long-lost brother.

But Qin Can was not blessed to enjoy this enthusiasm, he could hear the crackling of his bones when he was hugged by his shoulders, and the pain made him almost hold his breath.

"Brother Qin, why didn't you say hello to us when you went down the mountain, and just left without saying a word, did you not treat us as your own?"

Qin Can cursed in his heart, who left without saying a word?It wasn't your precious brothers who knocked me out and threw me down the mountain!But since there is something to ask for, this account can be recorded for the time being. Anyway, there are too many Liangzi with Yan San, so this is not bad.

So Qin Can didn't talk too much, and went straight to the point, "I came here this time because I want to borrow some people from the cottage."

"How to say?"

"The two masters also know that when the county government has been abandoned for a long time, all the police officers have left. Now that I am in office, I don't even have anyone under my command. Not to mention handling cases, it is difficult to deal with them just to maintain a facade. ..."

On the surface, Qin Can said that, since the people in Qinghua Town listened to the copycats so much, then the county government was full of people from the copycats, so he was afraid that there would be no way to manage it?What's more, if the county government uses people from Heiyun Jiulongzhai, it can be regarded as a kind of recruiting. After that, if there is a beginning, how difficult will it be to deal with this group of people later?

ha!ha!ha!Qin Can secretly smiled triumphantly.

Noticing that Boss Yu and Second Wan were looking at him, Qin Can straightened his sitting posture and coughed lightly, "I wonder if you two would like to?"

Seeing that they were silent, Qin Can's heart started beating wildly. Could it be that they saw through his plan?No, no, these two people have a lot of brute force and a simple mind, they won't see through themselves so easily.

Qin Can tried his best to make his expression look sincere. Boss Yu looked at him, and suddenly raised his hand to pat the table. There was a loud noise, and the teacup tilted to this side. Qin Can blinked his eyes in fright.

It's over, have you really been seen through by these two big bosses? !

But who knows the next moment, Boss Yu laughed loudly, "Hahaha! I thought it was a big deal! Come on!"

Some of his men appeared at the door and waited for his instructions.

"Go, call me all the brothers from Qinglongtang and Baihutang."

"Yes!"

In less than half a moment, dozens of people came to the school grounds, all of them had broad backs and waists, and looked powerful, strong and aggressive.

Boss Yu pointed at these people and said, "The Qinglong hall is full of brothers with the best skills in the cottage, and the people in the Baihutang specialize in taking care of the daily life of the cottage. Brother Qin, just pick whichever you like, and I, Lao Yu, will help with this little bit. If not, how can we be brothers with you?"

Qin Can was elated, and was about to pour out the good words he had prepared in his stomach to flatter him, when a cold voice came into his oblique stab.

"Brother, why do you call this stupid monkey brother and brother? He is full of thoughts about how to plot against our cottage. For this kind of person, the best way is to put him in a pig cage and throw him down the mountain!"

Qin Can turned around, and it turned out that the one who spoke was Yan Sanzu, who liked to fight against him.

I saw him walking around and sitting on a chair, with one leg propped up on the stool, holding a walnut in his hand, crushing it skillfully, and throwing the walnut meat into his mouth. This sitting posture, this eating manner, is as rude as it gets. It can be as indecent as it is rude.

Qin Can snorted coldly, ignored it, and went to the group of people to choose the one he liked the most.

"You, you, and you..." I clicked on a dozen or so in a row, and half of them were familiar to Qin Can, and I remembered that they were people under Yan San's hands.

"Leave the ones selected by Brother Qin, and leave the others." Boss Yu ordered, and then walked in front of them with his hands behind his back, "It's your honor to be selected by Brother Qin today. We have always had grudges with the government in the past. , but it’s different now, Brother Qin’s affairs are our Heiyun Jiulong Village’s affairs, Brother Qin’s county government office is our Heiyun Jiulong Village’s county government..."

After listening to Qin Can, he felt that this was so wrong.

"In short, you have to listen to Brother Qin's words and do things for the county government. Don't embarrass our cottage, do you hear me?"

"Yes!" Then they all turned to Qin Can, "You wait for your command!"

Hey, interesting.Qin Can was happy, and looked back at Yan San, and saw his face was as black as the bottom of a scorched pot, he squeezed his fist hard and crushed the walnut in his hand, his cruel eyes seemed to be saying ──Qin Can, you are doomed!

Oh ha ha ha!This officer is so scared, really scared!Qin Can looked back at him.Cut off your left arm and right arm first, then slap your ribs, and in the end you can only chop me up like a fish on a chopping board...

"Brother Qin, are these few people enough?"

Qin Can returned to his senses, looked at the person he had picked out, then looked at Yan San, and grinned, "There is still a master, but this other person can't do it, I have to...he!"

Qin Can pointed at Yan San.

Snapped!

A walnut was ejected by Yan San and flew onto Qin Can's forehead.

"Stupid monkey, you haven't woken up yet, have you?! What are you talking about in your sleep so early in the morning?"

Qin Can stood there, keeping the corners of his mouth upturned, pointed at Yan San, bent his finger, and then put his hand down.

"The first head and the second head have said, as long as I ask, there is nothing they can't help."

Yan San tilted his head, "What does it matter to me if they agree?"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Wan Lao Er hurried out to smooth things over.

"Hey, Brother Qin, isn't he just a teacher, you can see him too." Wan Er Er pulled someone out of the group of people Qin Can picked out, "Don't look at him so strong, he still has read a little of."

Qin Can dismissed it, "I want the master Cen Xi."

Then he turned to Yu Boss and Wan Lao Er, "How did you agree at the beginning? Why would Yan San finish the unfinished days of Cen Xi? Why is Cen Xi's dream Yan San's dream? Are you planning to go back on your word? ? The head of the dignified Heiyun Jiulongzhai is such a person who does not keep his word?"

"This……"

The two masters were in a dilemma, they looked at each other, then Boss Yu raised his chin towards Yan San, motioned for Second Wan to go over and said, Second Second Wan hesitated for a moment, but finally gave up.

"Third..."

"Second brother, save yourself some effort. That's what you agreed to the dog officer, and it has nothing to do with me." He got up and walked inside.

The second Wan Wan chased after him, "Hey, third, listen to me..."

Qin Can looked at the figures of the two men and raised his eyebrows.

Dog officer?Okay, let me, the dog official, take care of you!

It is not known what method Wan Laoer used afterwards. In short, when Qin Can led the person he picked down the mountain, Yan San with a stinky face followed behind.

Butterfly Cup 5

"The few of you will sleep here from now on. Tomorrow I will call someone to tailor your clothes, and then I will teach you some things that the police should do."

There were four strong young men standing in the room. Qin Can assigned different positions to those borrowed from the cottage. He heard from Boss Yu that these four had the best skills among them. It's still eye-catching, and it won't be scary when walking on the street. It's quite suitable for a policeman.

Qin Can couldn't help thinking in his heart, if he really wanted to catch a thief in the future, wouldn't he just be a real thief calling for a thief?Ha ha!

Of course, these thoughts will not be shown on his face. After ordering them to clean up the room, he turned around and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered, "What should I call you?"

Those people looked around, and one of them said, "My lord, we have no names..."

Qin Can was surprised, "No name? Then you can't say hello, or call it like you."

Except for one of them who was unsmiling, the other three laughed, and when they smiled, they looked much more simple and honest.

Someone said, "I just picked one at random and called it Shunliu. They called me Goudan. He was a mangy head. This one was in poor health when he was a child. There were always two snot trailing in front of his nose. We kept calling him Snot Worm, Big Brother Wu should have a name, but he won’t say it.”

This Brother Wu should be referring to the oldest but also the most silent among the four of them.Qin Can looked at him, and found that he was deliberately looking away, but looking at his eyes, he knew that he was a person with a past, but he didn't want others to know.

Well, everyone has a past that they don't want to mention, but those names are too ugly.Thinking about where a tall man went to stand, he turned out to be called Goudan, and that majestic image instantly became a little kid playing with mud in the field. This gap is really unacceptable.

"Don't yell like that in the future, it's embarrassing to say it out. How about it, according to your age, you can call like Ah Da and Ah Er."

It's not very good, but it's better than dog eggs and slugs.

The dullest one made no objection, the other who had introduced everyone just now nodded in agreement, but the other two frowned in protest.

"My lord, Ah Si sounds like Ah Shi..."

"Ah San doesn't sound too nice..."

Qin Can took a deep breath, "What about Ah Bing and Ah Ding?"

"Addin can."

Another giggled, "Wen Wubin?...It looks very mighty."

This person is the one Wan Laoer said before who had read a little. Not only did he misunderstand, but he also thought it was Wen Wubin.

After arranging all the people borrowed from Heiyun Jiulongzhai, Qin Can himself was exhausted, and he dragged himself to the place where he lived.

Seeing Yan San while passing by the backyard, Qin Can remembered that he had missed this ancestor.

At this moment, Yan San was sitting leisurely on the stone table in the backyard playing with the magistrate, when he flicked his finger, a walnut flew out of his hand, and the magistrate slammed it like an arrow He rushed out following the direction where the walnut flew, picked up the walnut and put it in Yan San's hand, then stared at him eagerly, waiting for him to throw it out again.

Just throwing it away and picking it up again, Yan San had no expression on his face, and the county magistrate was overjoyed.

Qin Can walked over, "Your room is at the back, follow me."

Yan San didn't say anything, and came down from the stone table, the county magistrate happened to bring back the walnuts, but the two had already left, the county magistrate walked around the stone table, saw the figures of the two men, and chased after them with the walnuts in their mouths. He walked over and rubbed against Yan San's feet, but Yan San didn't pick up the walnut again.

Qin Can took Yan San to the back room. This is a small courtyard with three rooms. Qin Can lived in the middle room. The east side was the study room. He pointed to the room next to him, "You will sleep in the room later." it's here……"

After a pause, he said again, "I didn't expect you to do anything in the county government office, but now that you have occupied Cen Xi's body, I can't let you do evil in the bandit den. I'm no better than you here Shanzhai, everything needs to go through me first..."

Before Qin Can finished speaking, Yan San had already opened the door and walked in. Qin Can followed him to go in together, but Yan San flicked his hand, "Bang", the door was closed in front of him.

Qin Can had no choice but to be thankful that he was half a step slow, otherwise his face would definitely be a big sesame seed cake when he slapped the door panel.

After touching his face, and gritted his teeth at the door, Qin Can turned around and saw the county magistrate squatting at the door with a walnut in his mouth, making a somewhat aggrieved "woo hoo" sound from his mouth.

Seeing this, Qin Can was furious, and kicked its ass with his foot, "You have no conscience, whoever gives you meat and bones, wags its tail at others in the blink of an eye."

The magistrate was kicked, looked up at Qin Can with wet eyes, half-opened mouth with a walnut in his mouth, drooling long, looking stupid.

Seeing it like this, Qin Can couldn't express his anger anymore, sighed deeply, and walked to the study.

The county magistrate looked at Yan San's closed door, then at Qin Can who was walking away, and stomped after him with a walnut in his mouth.

"silly dog!"

"Aww?"

"I won't give you food tonight!"

"Aoooooooooo!"

"If you want to eat, don't wag your tail at Yan San!"

"Ooooooh!"

One person and one dog walked on the corridor, leaving behind a series of ridiculous dialogues that no one could understand.

With manpower, the county government finally looked a little better. The cobwebs in the courtroom were cleaned up, the holes in the roof were mended, the pillars and the gate were repainted, and even the two stone lions at the gate were re-carved. Only, within a few days, the yamen was completely cleaned up.

Qin Can folded his arms, looked at the plaque of "Mirror Hanging High" hanging in the courtroom, and smiled with satisfaction.Under the sun, the ebony has a calm and oily luster, and the four characters painted with gold are brilliant, revealing solemnity and solemnity.

This is like a county government...

As soon as Qin Can finished sighing in his heart, there were bursts of "boom—boom—boom—" voices outside. He looked back at the door and was stunned for a moment before his eyes lit up. He realized that the sound was someone knocking outside. Whispering his grievances, the corners of his mouth grinned.

"Where are the people? Where are the people?! It's time to start! It's time to start!" Shouting people, he hopped to change his official uniform.

Butterfly Cup 6

In the county government that had been silent for a long time, the sound of water and fire sticks hitting the ground sounded again.

"Wei-wu!"

Before Qin Can came out from behind, he straightened his official uniform and straightened his official hat, and then walked out with a serious expression.

In the public hall, the servants recruited from Heiyun Jiulongzhai were all tall and straight, dressed in the clothes of the servants, and holding water and fire sticks, they still looked a bit like the servants.

Ah Da, Ah Er, Ah Bin, and Ah Ding, with their hands behind their backs, stood on both sides of the long table where the county magistrate was sitting, with a long knife hanging from their waists, their heads held high, their faces solemn, and there was a faint Righteousness surrounded him.

Xu Shi's sound of grievance drums alarmed the people in the town, and he hadn't been promoted to the court for a long time. Outside the court, there were many curious people who came to watch.

Qin Can thought, just take advantage of this opportunity to give himself a prestige.He walked to the back of the table and sat down, slapped the gavel, quite a bit of upright Qingtian demeanor.

"Who is in the hall? What is the grievance?"

Kneeling under the hall were two young people of about the same age, and one of them held a clucking hen in his arms.

Hearing Qin Can's question, the plainly dressed young man who hugged the hen tightly and looked a bit honest and honest immediately said to him, "My lord, please judge, this is obviously my chicken, he, He has to say it's his!"

The other hand bowed to Qin Can with a smile, and said: "My lord, the younger one is Wu San from the spice shop in Zhenkou. He is my second elder brother, and his name is Wu Er. The thing is this. I was watering the flowers and feeding the chickens in the yard. Wu Er suddenly broke in, picked up the chicken on the ground and ran out. After being stopped by me, he insisted that the chicken was his. My lord, this is carried out under the blue sky and broad daylight. Robbery, you can decide for me."

Qin Can looked at this man named Wu San from top to bottom, and saw that he was wearing a long gown, the fabric was much better than Wu Er's, he also looked smart and smart, and he spoke in a clear and orderly manner. I can't help but sigh in my heart, the two brothers are quite different in personality...

It's just that when Mr. Qin heard that the two people were beating their drums and calling for grievances, it was because of such a trivial matter, most of the previous momentum was lost.

"You all say that this chicken is yours, so what can you prove?"

Wu San cupped his hands again, and then pointed to the hen in Wu Er's arms, "Reporting to my lord, this chicken weighs two catties and two liang, its coat color is golden, with black hair mixed here and there on its neck, and a toe is missing on its left paw. Bitten by a stray cat."

Qin Can looked sideways at Ah Da, and gave him a wink. Ah Da agreed, went down, grabbed the hen's wings from Wu Er's arms, and walked to Qin Can's desk for him to see. The hen's left foot.

Indeed, as Wu San said, the chicken's left paw is missing a toe.When Qin Can leaned over to look at it, he was almost kicked on the face by the chicken's paw, so he quickly waved his sleeves to ask Ah Da to take the chicken away.

Wu Er below was a little anxious: "Master, this is really, really my laying hen. It flew into his yard this morning. When I went to catch it, he insisted on saying that it was a laying hen. is his."

Qin Can stretched out one hand to support the table, propped one cheek, "But you can't tell what other characteristics this chicken has."

"This, this..."

Wu Er looked embarrassed, his neck was red with anxiety, and he couldn't come up with it after thinking about it for a long time, but Wu San who was on the side was calm and calm, "I just said that this chicken is mine."

"You...why are you so bad? You eat well and live well, why are you still greedy for my chicken?"

"How do you call it greedy? It's wandering around in my yard, eating the rice I fed, isn't it my thing?"

"You're talking nonsense, this... this is my chicken!"

"Then you also show some facts to prove to adults that this chicken is yours."

"I...you have said everything I can say, but this chicken is mine!"

Qin Can sat there with his head on his hands, listening to them arguing with each other, his eyelids drooped, and he yawned several times in a row.

"mine!"

"Who said it was yours?"

"be mine!"

"My lord, tell me, whose chicken is this?"

Qin Can finally couldn't bear it any longer. What's the point of arguing about this kind of thing, he slapped the gavel, "Half for one person."

"No!" The two people in the hall objected loudly at the same time.

After being yelled at by them, Qin Can yelled away the drowsy bug, collected himself, and cleared his throat, "Cough, according to the testimony of the two of you, the judge now pronounces that this chicken is..."

Just as he was talking, A Ding, who was standing on the side, came over and said in a small voice, "My lord... this chicken belongs to Wu Er, and the younger ones can testify. Many people here also know that Wu Er often hugs this chicken." He even said that when the chickens lay eggs, they will distribute them to the neighbors..."

Qin Can squinted at A Ding, saw that he was serious, and he didn't look like he was lying, so he continued, "There are witnesses to testify that this chicken belongs to Wu Er, so this matter is over, and we will withdraw from the courtroom. "

Snapped!

The gavel fell, and Qin Can was about to get up, but Wu San was still kneeling there relentlessly.

"My lord, how can you jump to conclusions based on mere phrases? Or did you take some advantage from him to help him like this?"

As soon as this was said, the onlookers outside the court began to whisper among each other, Qin Can only heard the rustling voices in his ears, but couldn't hear clearly, it was really annoying, so he slapped the gavel hard, It was louder than before, and the hall was silent for a moment.

Qin Can was about to explain, when suddenly there was the sound of the curtain being pulled aside, Qin Can looked sideways, and the next moment his butt slipped and he almost fell off the chair.

The one who opened the curtain and came out was Yan San.Under the stunned eyes of everyone, he walked to the empty table next to the magistrate's seat, which was reserved for the master, and put the green calf knife on the table.

The heavy sharp blade made a clicking sound. Although it was not out of the sheath, the icy chill that seemed to be able to pierce the spine of the person was already trembling.

Yan San was still dressed as in Heiyun Jiulongzhai, with sleeveless short hexagrams, moose leather boots, tattoos on his arms, and the conspicuous handle on the table.
