the enlightener says

Debris splashed everywhere on the originally clean floor, even flying and scratching a person's wrist, and blood dripped down the sleeve like this, but the officials kneeling underneath did not dare to dodge at all, they just felt ashamed Head down, like a poor child who has done something wrong.

"Who is Sun Tong, you don't know? Tell you to send someone to stare at him and you just stare at him like this? He can kill Ting Wu under your nose? And there is such a big mess, just today, the court The memorabilia of participating in you and me in the hall is almost piled up into a mountain, you are not afraid of shame, but I am also afraid of shame!"

"On weekdays, I turn a blind eye to what you eat and drink, because I know that your salary is really tight, but I do this because I hope you can do things well, but how do you repay me? Is it true that I am not the first person to hear about the Sun family’s old land today when I arrived in Jingwu, is it because our school office is completely rotten? Or are you people already incompetent to this point?”

"Pigs are smarter than you! You are worse than pigs!"

Hearing this sentence, although he knew that what Zhou Gongjin said was angry, the expressions of the officials below were also ugly.

Among them, a detective lieutenant in charge of intelligence in the school affairs office was a little bit unbearable to be humiliated, but he didn't dare to refute because of shame, he just explained in a low voice: "After all, it is the old place of the Sun family. I was worried that the people of the Sun family would overreact, so The manpower we sent has been reduced by one-third, and most of them are not in confidential positions, so..."

"That's not a reason!" Zhou Gongjin roared angrily, "I don't care how difficult you are, you can mention it when you take over the errand, and I will help as much as possible, but you all swear that you can't I, then don't complain now."

As soon as these words came out, the detective lieutenant fell silent immediately, he could only lower his head and clasped his hands vigorously to express his attitude.

After a while, Zhou Gongjin's emotions finally eased a little, and her voice was no longer as loud as before, but she still said coldly: "I said, if you want to monitor Sun Tong, you must not be careless. What kind of food does he eat? What kind of soup to drink, which brothel to go to, which popular girl to have sex with, a few trips to the toilet on the way, whether the dog poop is yellow or black, all of which are indispensable."

Surveillance to such a degree, even a person's shit is yellow or black has to be reported, probably there is no such funny thing in this world, but everyone in the school office did not laugh, because they all know that Zhou Gongjin is what a person.

Although this school official who came from the rivers and lakes and has such a little "little bastard habit" on his body plays and fights on weekdays, but when he really encounters things, he is always strict and serious, even the newly appointed Zuo Lang Zhongshen Dao They all had to worship.

This is probably the reason why Zhuge Wanling sent him to take over the school office. After all, no matter how good the original intention and the strict structure of a yamen, once established for a long time and doing too many things, it is inevitable that the yamen will be infected with the staleness of the officialdom. gas.

But Zhou Gongjin is like a polished gun, courageous and capable of sweeping those obstacles into the dustpan. Otherwise, how could Shen Dao test the officials of the school office so simply and even arbitrarily, and arbitrarily Adjust their official titles?

So what he said, to report whether the poop is black or yellow, I am afraid he really meant this...

Turning around and pouring down a glass of water vigorously, Zhou Gongjin looked at the four big characters "Self-restraint and dedication to the public" hanging on the wall. She was silent for a while, and then sighed: "The thing has already happened, and I don't want to punish you now. , because the person who really deserves a heavy punishment has already gone to receive the punishment by himself, and he will not kneel here to listen to my mother-in-law. From now on, I want Sun Tong to report the situation one by one, without any omissions. Did you hear that?"

It sounded like limp and powerless, but everyone was shocked when they heard the last sentence, and immediately saluted with both hands and replied loudly: "Your subordinate understands!"

"Go down." Zhou Gongjin waved his hands, and did not look at the backs of those people leaving, but suddenly said, "Qin Ke, come in."

Qin Ke, who had been standing at the door for a long time, suddenly felt his heart skip a beat. He walked in swiftly and stood behind Zhou Gongjin.

"Are you back?" Zhou Gongjin asked, "How's the matter?"

Qin Ke knew that what he was talking about was about Luo Fengchu, so he nodded slightly and said: "It's all settled, I think there shouldn't be any troubles later."

"Very good." Zhou Gongjin nodded, and heaved a sigh of relief. In Jianye City, there were no more than five people who knew about Luo Fengchu, and he was one of them. Naturally, he also knew how terrifying a master in the realm of a saint was.

Although there is a large formation in Jianye City, which is enough to withstand the masters of the saint realm, but the masters of the saint realm have various methods, who knows whether this formation can last forever?In comparison, what happened to Sun Tong was just a trivial matter.

Qin Ke glanced at the officials who left in a hurry, and asked softly, "What happened? You look very angry."

"Angry? Of course I'm angry." Zhou Gongjin smiled self-deprecatingly, "But I'm not just angry with those people, what's even more angry is that I wasn't firm enough at the beginning, otherwise I would have killed Sun Tong directly, and there would not be as many people as now." Something happened."

Speaking of which, he looked at Qin Ke and shrugged his shoulders in a relaxed manner: "By the way, you just came back, and you don't quite know what happened, right? Just a few days ago, Sun Tong suddenly rebelled and led people to attack In the mansion of Tingwu, the county guard, after killing Tingwu, he led a group of stupid old people from the Sun family to rebel."

"Rebellion...rebellion?" Qin Ke was stunned, he didn't expect it to be such a big thing, "Sun Tong is crazy? Even if there is still a power in the old place of the Sun family, but compared with Jing Wu, it's nothing more than an insignificance , what did he use to rebel?"

Mentioning this matter, Zhou Gongjin also had a very ugly face: "Indeed. In fact, from my point of view, that bastard Ting Wu deserves to die. I don't know who in the court explained to him the reason why Sun Tong was demoted, so he is so stupid. So much so that he wanted to suppress Sun Tong to show his loyalty, what happened? Instead, he lost his own head."

"So...Sun Tong was forced to rebel?"

"Only God knows. Maybe he had the intention to rebel." Zhou Gongjin said coldly, "Now that he kills the county guards to stand on his own, and has an army of [-] under his command, if he doesn't handle it properly, I'm afraid there will be big trouble."

In fact, just one Sun Tong's [-] troops is not a big deal. The key is that the school office has also received other news. According to some inferences, Sun Tong may even have contacts with Tang people. confirmed this judgment.

"The storm is coming." Zhou Gongjin said in a deep voice.

Qin Ke looked at Zhou Gongjin, nodded, and said, "Do you need me to do something? Of course, I may not be able to do it if I check Sun Tong. If there is a war..."

His words came to an abrupt end, because he inexplicably felt that there was no need for him to do so much anymore, after all, the master had already been found, and from what he saw now, he was living a very good life, enjoying the support in the palace, being rich and prosperous If you can't enjoy it enough, how can you lack a helper like him?

Zhou Gongjin, who was thinking with her hands behind her back, didn't notice Qin Ke's abnormality. She just thought about it, took out a roll of bamboo slips from the case, threw it to Qin Ke and said, "You have something you should do, or rather, this matter It has something to do with you too."

"A few days after you left Jianye, Hu suddenly disappeared in the city. I don't know if he is alive." Zhou Gongjin's voice was very solemn, "Find him, or... dig him out."

7 Chapter Twenty Second Floor!Second floor!

Tiger has been missing for some days.

Judging from the scale of Jianye City, it is really not difficult to make a person disappear without anyone noticing. Even if Hu holds an important position in the school affairs office, disappearing now is like a little boy who jumped into the river. There is no way to find fish.

But Qin Ke knew that Hu, as a spy of the school office, had no reason to hide by himself. Even if he was in danger, he would at least leave some clues for his companions to know what happened to him, so that the school The government secretly used so many people but failed to find out why?

Could it be that he tracked down something incredible and it's inconvenient to show up?

Or, he touched something that he shouldn't touch at all, and he was killed and silenced...

That's why Zhou Gongjin said "dig it out", which is to say that if you live, you must see people, and if you die, you must see corpses.

However, since Jianye is so big, it is inevitable that Sun Tong's remnant party will still be in the city. It is not surprising that he retaliated against Hu. Moreover, the school office has made many enemies in Jingwu, and Hu, as a detective captain, has solved many major cases. It's not that the city is full of enemies, but if you walk a lot at night, you will always encounter one or two "ghosts"...

Qin Ke, who left the school office, walked aimlessly on the street, slowly clenched his fists.

After he knew Zhuge Wanling's true identity, he seemed to have lost some kind of support all of a sudden, and the ambition he had set up to find his master also disappeared.

The artifact is no longer important, and this huge Jingwu is still not his destination. Obviously, the current "master" can't go back to Daoxiang Village with him, so is there any need for him to stay in Jingwu?

Before entering the school office, he had actually prepared a draft, and wanted to ask Zhou Gongjin to resign, so he took Cai Yan and left. Go to the northern grasslands that I have always longed for, have a drink with my elder brother Cao Pei, and then go north to climb the Great Wall, maybe I can stand shoulder to shoulder with General Mulan...

But Tiger's disappearance stopped him from thinking about it.

He has not been with Hu for a long time, but he has developed some friendship. Although Hu usually has no expression, his heart is warm. Now that his friend is in trouble, how can he stand by and even walk away?

After thinking about this point, he didn't hesitate any longer, and hurried to the house, called Cai Yan to go to the tiger's residence together, and planned to investigate from there, and he thought it would be fruitful.

"No matter how you look at it, this doesn't look like the home of a regular sixth-rank detective captain." When she walked into the remote courtyard, Cai Yan only felt a sense of staleness rushing towards her face. After looking around, she made a simple and direct answer. white evaluation.

It is true that this small courtyard is quite spacious, but no matter from the damaged walls, old tiles, or a rotten pillar under the eaves, it can be seen that this courtyard has been built for some years.

Although the house is old, the yard is full of vitality. A dozen children in old clothes are running around playing the game of catching ghosts, making a burst of cheerful laughter. It is an old and lazy old dog that has lost half of its hair. It only knows how to bask in the sun and doesn't care if there are strangers approaching.

Qin Ke nodded and said: "Officials of the school affairs office already have shared bedrooms in the school affairs office, and Tiger almost only sleeps there. It is said that he bought this courtyard for 50 taels of silver once for an errand. It has basically not been repaired, so it is naturally dilapidated.”

Speaking of this, a few children happened to run past Cai Yan, looking up and down with somewhat curious eyes, and Cai Yan was already childish, so he naturally got along well with these children, and soon got along with them, and took on the role of the only one. The "hen" protecting the chicks resists the attack of the little chubby eagle in front of her.

After playing around for a while, Qin Ke looked at those children and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It is said that Tiger never saves his monthly money, one part is for a widowed old man from the Jingchu Gang, and the other part is for raising these children."

"That guy really has a bad temper, but he is indeed a good person." Cai Yan grinned.

Needless to say, Cai Yan could tell that these children were orphans, and guessing further, perhaps they were the orphans left after the war between Jingwu and Tang.

Although it is not that the Jingwu court has not issued pensions, and has set up many wards to take care of these children, the so-called pensions are limited after all.

Hu knew this, so he specially hired a teacher to come to teach these children how to read. Although the price is expensive, in time, the children must have a better life when they grow up.

The person who opened the door was a middle-aged woman, not tall, a little bloated, facing two strangers for a while, her face showed a shy look.

However, after hearing Qin Ke say that he was a colleague of the school affairs office, he immediately showed a smile, invited the two into the room, and warmly greeted the two to sit down while pouring tea.

"This is the first time I've met Hu's colleague. He never mentioned things in the school office before, and I never dared to ask... His room? It's upstairs. He often came back a few days ago , It’s been less recently, are you busy again? I’m really sorry to bother you two to pick things up in person.”

"Auntie, you also know that he is such a person. Once he has an errand, he forgets everything, so don't blame him." Qin Ke responded with a smile, and didn't say much about tigers.

Now Hu's life and death are still unclear. If he really said it, he was worried that this distant relative would faint on the spot.

Just as they were talking and laughing, Qin Ke suddenly noticed that Cai Yan's hand hidden under the table was tightly holding the corner of his clothes. He lowered his eyes slightly and found that her fingers were pointing upwards, as if hinting at something.

Qin Ke pretended to stretch his waist, and the moment he raised his head, with the help of some light projected from outside the door, he found that there were actually some fine dust floating down from the ceiling, light and silent.

But for Qin Ke, the moment the wind vision technique was launched, he had already heard some subtle sounds, as if he was moving something, or turning something, with the collision sound of some bamboo slips, and some The sound of moving footsteps.

These voices have been suppressed to the extreme, but it is precisely because of this that it reveals that person's unusualness.

Qin Ke narrowed his eyes, but made his laughter louder. At the same time, Cai Yan asked her to talk to the woman first, and then he walked towards the stairs.

The stairs have been old for a long time and are no longer strong enough to make a creaking sound when stepping on them, but Qin Ke's light footsteps, combined with precise control of Qi and blood, still ensured that he did not make the slightest sound, walking upstairs like a shadow go.

until the last few steps.

Qin Ke stopped suddenly, as if he was suddenly tired, and completely lost the motivation to move forward on the spot.

This is a very unusual behavior.

But Qin Ke knew that if he really took that step easily at this moment, what kind of grand ceremony would be greeted him.

This person is so keen, he noticed his arrival first, and hid in the corner of the stairs, waiting for the opportunity to make a move!

Silently, Qin Ke held the hilt of the Bodhisattva Sword with one hand. During the days when he was away from the Bodhisattva Sword, he wanted to hold the sword again all the time, because this sword brought him infinite confidence. and strength.

That person's patience is actually very good.

Qin Ke half closed his eyes, and there was no movement. The two of them seemed to be petrified. Downstairs, Cai Yan was chatting and laughing with the woman, and he seemed to be holding his breath as time went by.

After an unknown amount of time, beads of sweat oozed from Qin Ke's forehead, and he heard a short and sharp friction sound in the wind.

That was the sound of a weapon being unsheathed!

Qin Ke's pupils shrank slightly, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. At the same time, the Bodhisattva Sword went upstream in a faster way, like a fish jumping up suddenly in a river, shining with sparkling white light, facing the river. Scouring is still going upstream!

With a sound of "ding", the blade and the blade slammed together like a pair of lingering lovers. Amidst the teeth-stinging sound of rubbing, Qin Ke met the man's eyes, and the weapons intersected and burst into a dazzling light. sparks.

Qin Ke turned to let out a roar, stomped his legs, and the stairs cracked under his feet, and his figure directly crashed into the darkness of the second floor with this force!

The first time the two fought, Cai Yan had already pulled the startled woman down to squat down. The woman didn't know what happened, but only saw the bright lights on the broken stairs from time to time, and immediately wanted to Scream of fear.

However, Cai Yan's slender hand accurately covered her mouth, her eyes were filled with determination, and she lowered her voice, "Don't scream!"

Chapter 721 Swordsman

For a bold and careful person like Cai Yan, the fight above is obviously not enough to scare her, but she also knows that the woman is far from Qin Ke and her world, so she explained in a low voice: "You shouted, and the children outside heard it."

Probably because the love for those children finally defeated the fear, the woman's trembling legs stabilized, the panic in her eyes gradually faded, and she nodded slightly.

Seeing that his words had an effect, Cai Yan also showed some smiles, and then continued: "Go and take those children out, find a place to hide first, and don't let them continue to play in the yard."

This is the best solution now, no one knows when Qin Ke and that person above will decide the winner, and even if Qin Ke can win, there is no guarantee that this person will not jump over the wall to hijack the children in a hurry, and things will change when the time comes more complicated.

The woman nodded, covered her mouth honestly, stooped carefully and went out, and soon the children's noises gradually faded away.

Cai Yan stood at the bottom of the stairs, not in a hurry to go upstairs, but just waited quietly, Xiao Hei's head came out from her chest, making a creaking sound, as if she was asking for something.

"You want to go up and help?" Cai Yan blinked.

Perhaps because of the gradual growth of the body, Xiao Hei no longer spends a lot of time sleeping every day like before, and even often behaves like a kitten and puppy, and his actions have become more active.

Cai Yan raised his eyes and looked at the light of the knife upstairs, thought for a moment, nodded, and solemnly warned: "Okay, it's best to find a way to bite someone's leg so that they don't run away."

In the sound of "Zhizhi" agreeing, Xiao Hei on his chest had turned into a black lightning bolt, and rushed down the stairs into the light of the knife.

No candles were lit on the second floor, and the windows were closed tightly, so it looked even darker, but for Qin Ke, the sharp knife was far brighter than any candles, and the sound of the wind was like a ghost crying. Even the spine of the Bodhisattva sword was slightly curved.

This is a strong swordsman.

And also left-handed.

Qin Ke has never fought against a left-handed person before, but he can also feel that the left-handed sword of this person in front of him is really wonderful to a peak state, and the shot is smooth without any muddle. Can barely match his movements.

He has only seen such sharp saber skills on two young master practitioners, one is Gong Wu, the guard next to Mr. Gao, and the other is Zhu Ran, the commander of the imperial army, but they are both right-handed.

When did there become such a powerful left-handed swordsman in Jianye City, and why did he sneak into Hu's room himself?

Only he himself uncovered all this.

Qin Ke gritted his teeth and suppressed the faintly disordered Qi and blood. Then the Bodhisattva sword shook again, and the spine of the sword became straight again. Even with the strength of this rebound, the swordsman was able to bounce back. Then it flew out!

After retreating five steps away, the swordsman still forcibly stabilized his body, and at the same time his legs sank suddenly. After a "snap", the wooden floor collapsed and broke.

In this little time, the battle between the two only took up such a short moment, but such a short moment was enough for Qin Ke to draw his sword!

The rumbling sound continued to advance, and the whistling sound of the Bodhisattva sword piercing the air was so profound, it was like spring thunder that was about to fall, constantly exploding in the building.

The qi and blood of the little master's realm are enough to support Qin Ke's strength, so the fifth entry Jingzhe no longer needs to accumulate energy like when he was fighting Zeng Yu, it is only a breath of time, and the Bodhisattva Sword has been completed The process from drawing the sword to reaching the opponent.

Even though the swordsman in front of him is very strong, even the four swords that pierced the cloud with Feng Chaolu Haitang couldn't defeat him, but the power of Jing Zhe's sword is far stronger than the previous four swords, it can even be said to be the strongest sword he can use now One of the tricks, he didn't believe that this swordsman could deal with it calmly.

The fact was just as he expected, the swordsman immediately showed shock when he saw Jing Zhe's sword, and in the blink of an eye, he made a decision, stomping his foot on the floor, his body seemed to be pulled by a rope Generally move backwards.

The point of the sword is only one foot away from the swordsman's chest, and the room is less than two feet wide. No matter how fast he retreats, it seems that he can't avoid the sword that Qin Ke thrust out with all his energy and blood. .

But the impossibilities in this world are often not too reliable, just like this almost certain sword, clearly Qin Ke saw that he was about to touch the swordsman's chest, but suddenly felt a crisis, and almost without hesitation withdrew the sword across the chest.

Only a ding sound was heard, and the light of the knife like silver water splashing was painted into a full moon, which hurt people's eyes. Qin Ke only had time to see the trajectory of the knife clearly, and blocked the Bodhisattva sword in the direction of the knife. On the road, but still failed to stop this violent knife.

Qin Ke stepped on the floor under his feet to create countless cracks, and then slammed into the bookcase with countless files with a muffled grunt, until the bookcase was smashed to pieces, and even the wooden wall beside it was covered with cracks. Obvious dents.

The swordsman who turned the situation around just now didn't stop, he kept thinking about him and came after him, but because Qin Ke left a kick secretly, he was kicked in the chest, and the two rolled into a ball on the ground.

There was a triumphant smile on the corner of Qin Ke's mouth, and then he heard the expected groan, and the swordsman who was chasing after the victory also retreated back. In the light of the sword, Xiao Hei's figure loomed, and then floated again It flew up and landed on Qin Ke's shoulder.

Drops of blood gradually dripped down the trouser legs onto the floor, and the whole room suddenly returned to tranquility, as if the fierce fighting had never happened before.
