The Immortal Monarch Xia was deceived

"You were tired last night, let's catch up on another sleep?" As soon as he entered the room, Chi Si smiled menacingly, and he couldn't wait to put someone on the bed to eat and drink, and then he had a good night's sleep.

"Fourth, what are we here for?" Qing Yan gave him a sideways look with fierce eyes.

"Didn't the old man tell us to rest today and talk about it another day?" Although the old man pretended to be polite to them and ignored them in a very measured manner, the point of going back to the room to rest coincided with him and won his heart deeply. .

As for the original purpose?Long ago, the color made the wisdom faint.

He used to not do business all day long, and fell asleep with his head covered when he was bored.

Now there is one more thing to do, and that is to eat.

Sleep when you are full, and eat when you wake up.

The taste of the world is so ecstasy and delicious that he is always hungry and thirsty and cannot resist it.

"Late, four." Qi Ji couldn't bear the mad bee, wave and butterfly wanting to go through the flowers again.

He slammed the opponent's pulse door and stopped the hands that started the fire everywhere: "If you feel tired, you can wait for me at the inn these few days. I have to go out to do business."

Chi Si was too frightened by Tianwei's thunderous fury to act recklessly: "That old man doesn't want us to see the prisoner at all, what can we do?"

"We broke into the dungeon directly?"

"Do you know why he doesn't want us to meet criminals?"

Chi Si smiled lazily: "I don't know."

He doesn't care at all.

"I don't know either." The gentle and clear eyes showed a threatening radiance, like a steep lone peak hidden behind the misty veil of water smoke, a precipitous cliff.

"This is the prisoner caught by the police of Jingzhao Mansion. It has nothing to do with him, but he is temporarily imprisoned on a borrowed place. Wouldn't it be better to throw this hot potato out as soon as possible? Why do you want to obstruct it with an excuse?"

"That's the collusion between officials and bandits." Chi Si immediately understood, "That sect in Xihe County, in his jurisdiction, it's impossible not to notice it at all. He knew that there was a stronghold of human traffickers here. They buy, sell, and transport for convenience.”

"If you were to interrogate a criminal, you might confess him as well."

Qi Jimu admired him, and bent his eyebrows to look at him: "Let's go, I'll take you to pick up the guests."

Chi Si ate the reward he deserved from the delicious food in his heart, and then followed him out of the inn hungry.

The two of them didn't go through the main entrance, they opened the window and jumped onto the roof of the inn, stepping on the interlaced black tile eaves, and left the inn without touching the ground.

The two of them are as light as a swallow, and their movements are as swift as chasing the wind and chasing electricity. Even if the bright blue sky circles the daylight, they are as light as a light shadow, which is hard to detect.

Chi Si followed Qi Ji away from the inn, and came to a small restaurant in an alley to the south.

At this time, the morning was past, and it was still early before noon, and the restaurant was empty, only the boss was fiddled with the abacus at the counter, and wrote and sketched in the ledger.

Seeing someone come in, the boss didn't lift his head: "What do you two guests want to eat?"

Qi Ji walked into a table in the innermost corner, and sat down gracefully: "Half catty eight Liang Yangchun noodles, thirty two six money rice, vegetables and water."

The boss continued to fiddle with the beads: "I'm afraid there are so many guest officials that I can't finish it."

"Then seven taels of taicang rice."

The boss paused, walked to the door silently, looked left and right to make sure there was no one around, closed the door, and walked to the table: "Master Ji, why should I bother you to come in person?"

Qi Ji Wenya smiled and raised his eyes lightly, with a sense of arrogance in his modesty and politeness: "What are you talking about?"

The boss was stunned for a moment, then trembled slightly after a while: "If there is no wind or rain, the next batch of goods will arrive in Xihe in about three days."

"When did this business start?"

"No more than two or three weeks." The boss stood with his head down, his voice trembling.As if afraid of being blamed for not discovering it sooner, he hastily added word by word, "It will never exceed a month."

He thought for a while, and then explained his excuses: "A little more than a month ago, a small earthquake occurred in the neighboring county, which destroyed several houses. Perhaps because of this, they moved their business to Xihe."

"Okay, I got it. You watch and listen more these days, and let me know as soon as the goods arrive." Qi Ji got up and went out, "Before I robbed this business, I was in Xihe."

Chi Si followed Qi Ji out of the restaurant.

"The next group of people abducted by that group will be transported in three days?"

He understood.

The criminal gang that bought and sold people kidnapped people from various places and sent them to Xihe, and then sold them after finding a buyer.

Xihe is just one of their hideouts, and Yinyi Pavilion will follow this line to catch them all.

"Hmm." Qi Ji's eyelids were half drooped, thoughtful.

Hearing the other party's words, he raised his head and bent his eyes, and said softly: "Tomorrow we will go to the county magistrate, and find a way to ask for some accounts first."

When Chi Si heard it, his eyebrows were beaming with joy, "Are you all right today?"

Qi Ji sighed and smiled, helplessly: "It's all right, let's go back and rest."

The two quietly returned along the road and turned into the inn room through the window.

Eat six qi and drink sloppy, wash Zhengyang and contain the morning glow. (*)

Qi Jijun raised his eyes slightly, his face brimming with indifference and anger, his lips tightly pursed with gritted resentment, and he walked out of the inn door with a calm face without saying a word.

He was tortured and devoured overnight, and there was not a single intact part of his body.There are more mottled scars than the prisoners in the dungeon.

Chi Si skipped a meal for breakfast, followed him lazily and yawning day after day after he was hungry, and went to the county government office again.

The county magistrate had expected them to come.

Although he sent someone to introduce them into the government office with feigned enthusiasm and served tea, he said that he was busy with official duties and would not go to see them until he finished the urgent case at hand.

He said in his mouth to ask the guests to wait for a while, and this wait will last for half a day.

Chi Si was bored in the room, hungry, too hungry and thirsty to be patient and itchy.

Obviously the delicacy is right in front of you, but you can't get it in your mouth, it's very uncomfortable for three souls and seven souls.

Why don't you just go directly to the prison to raise people?

There is no need to get the old man's consent.

Just walking in with such swagger, no one can do anything to him.

"This is a government office, not a place where you can use swords and guns if you don't agree with each other." Qi Ji saw what he was thinking, and sighed helplessly: "Fourth, if you are bored waiting, go back to the inn to rest first."

There are bloody winds in the rivers and lakes, and there are open and dark arrows in the temples.Even if he is an immortal in Lingxiao Palace, he still has to abide by the rules of the mortal court.

The official level crushes people to death.To do things for the court, you have to wait.

"I don't." Chi Si looked hungry and thirsty.

He suddenly thought of something, and a wicked look flashed from the corner of his gorgeous eyes: "The old man may be busy with work today, and he won't be able to come out for a while. Would you like me to have a full meal first?"

Qi Ji's eyes were sharp and cold, like frost knives like snow swords, he gritted his teeth and endured it for a while, then used self-restraint to suppress his anger, and cursed out on the spot.

Huanghuang Tianwei didn't dare to disobey, even if he indulged like Chi, he was too frightened to do anything wrong again.

Unexpectedly, just half a moment after he finished speaking, a small official rushed over and said that the county magistrate had an invitation from the backyard.

"Your magistrate is done with his work?" Chi Si staggered and followed behind Qi Ji.

I thought the old man would be busy from morning to night today.

The little official led the way and said respectfully: "A lord has come from above, and he indicated that he wants to discuss official affairs with the lord together with the two of you."

So it turned out that a bigger official came?

Who?Has something to do with their business?
