Dragon Pattern Roll Set

Zhan Zhao stuffed a chopstick of food into his mouth, and felt that it was not a disadvantage to be touched, and he felt even if he touched him himself.

So, Zhan Daxia, who has always been informal, quickly forgot about this, picked and picked with chopsticks, and tried the taste of the dishes.Daofu Town is a small place, but there are also delicacies in small places, especially some local dishes.

Bai Yutang observed for a while, this cheerful Zhan Daxia is still a veritable foodie, he even knows the special snacks in a remote place like Daofu Town, and his mouth is smooth when ordering.

In fact, Zhan Zhao had inquired with the old man in the yamen long before he went out, and he knew what was delicious.

Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang while eating, and frowned when he saw that he only drank alcohol and didn't eat food, "It doesn't suit your taste? Order what you want."

Bai Yutang seemed to be in a good mood, he reached out and grabbed the chopsticks to pick up the food, but he thought it tasted good, and Zhan Zhao was pretty good at ordering.

Zhan Zhao wondered why Bai Yutang was so young when serving dishes, couldn't help but handed over a spoon, and said in his heart that he didn't believe you were still eating soup, young master.

However, Bai Yutang put the spoon aside and did not move, put down his chopsticks and continued to drink.

Zhan Zhao put away his playful thoughts, looked at the square box on the table, and asked Bai Yutang, "Didn't you come all the way to Daofu Town for the case of killing the Daofu family?"

"I just found out about the Broken Knife Gate." Seeing that Zhan Zhao was curious about the box, Bai Yutang reached out and took off the white silk wrapping the box.

Zhan Zhao saw a black wooden box inside the cloth bag, so he looked at Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows, "Open it and have a look."

Zhan Zhao frowned, "It's not really a human head, is it?"

Bai Yutang drank.

Zhan Zhao reached out to open the box and took a look inside. He was stunned, and saw a white skull inside the wooden box.

Zhan Zhao didn't quite understand, so he closed the lid and looked at Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang said, "Take a closer look."

Zhan Zhao opened the box and took a closer look. There were many people here, and he didn't want to take out the skeleton, so he tilted the wooden box back a little, and with a glance... Zhan Zhao saw something special about this skeleton——the skeleton's white cheekbones On it, there is a black mark, which seems to be a tattoo.

The word "crime" will be stabbed on when repeat offenders are sent to the border. Because the stab is deep and the cheeks are less fleshy, they are often stabbed on the cheekbones.

After Zhan Zhao closed the box, he was in a daze...

There are many disciples and grandchildren of the Tianshan School, but everyone in the Jianghu knows that the Tianshan School is in chaos, and the head of the school, Lu Feng, can't control those young and energetic disciples with strong martial arts skills. This must start with Tianzun's character.

Tian Zungui is the Supreme Martial Arts Master, and together with Yin Houke, the owner of the Tianmo Palace, is called number one in the world.

But his character is very childish, and he has amazing talent, so he also likes to find some talented apprentices.

Tianzun has selected many apprentices in his life, but most of them feel that they have no talent after teaching them every move, so they leave it to the head of Tianshan School to continue teaching.Among so many apprentices, only Bai Yutang was the one who taught Tianzun seriously from the beginning to the end, and the only one who admitted that he was his heir.

Except for Bai Yutang, there are at least twelve or thirteen unnamed apprentices who have been instructed by Tianzun.Although these apprentices are not as talented as Bai Yutang, they all have their own merits.The Tianshan School is a holy land of martial arts, and there are a large number of martial arts books in the Cangshu Pavilion. These dozen or so apprentices will each form a family after they grow up, and their martial arts are very strong.Although Lu Feng is the head of the Tianshan School, he can't control these "disciples" because of the chaotic seniority.Therefore, the Tianshan School is divided into many factions.

Some disciples who were responsible for managing the daily affairs of the Tianshan School followed Lu Feng.The other apprentices each followed a "senior brother", some became independent sects, and some coveted the position of head of the Tianshan sect, fighting to the death.

Among so many apprentices, there is a very special one named Yang Caisheng.

Yang Caisheng was one of the apprentices accepted by Tianzun in the early days, and he can't be called an apprentice, anyway, Tianzun didn't admit it, he can only be said to be a disciple.

This person has a casual personality, and it is said that he is also suave and suave. He doesn't like to fight for power and profit, but likes to travel around the mountains and rivers.

After Yang Caisheng mastered martial arts, he walked the rivers and lakes alone, living a carefree life.But during the period, he didn't know what happened. He fell in love with a foreign woman, and the two loved each other fiercely.However, this woman is an assassin, who was arrested for assassinating the imperial court official. Yang Caisheng rescued her escape without knowing the inside story, violated the law of the country, and was seriously injured by the woman's betrayal.

In the end, Yang Caisheng was framed, tattooed and distributed, and has since disappeared. It is said that he is dead.

This incident has been going on for more than ten years, and it has been widely circulated in the Jianghu.Therefore, many martial arts students in the Central Plains martial arts are shy of foreign women, for fear of becoming the second Yang Caisheng.

Zhan Zhao stared at the dead bones for a long time, then asked Bai Yutang, "Is this Yang Caisheng?"

Bai Yutang put down the wine glass, "A few days ago, my master sent someone to ask me to go to Tianshan Mountain. There is this box on the table."

Zhan Zhao held his wine glass and listened attentively.

"A few days ago, a woman from a foreign race sent this box to Tianshan, saying that she wanted to see my master." Bai Yutang said unhurriedly, "After giving the box to my master, he said that it contained the head of Yang Caisheng. There is actually something hidden about what happened back then. Yang Caisheng died to save her, and she was neither an assassin nor betrayed, they were framed together."

"Oh?" Zhan Zhao was surprised, "There is something hidden in it? Then why didn't you say it earlier?"

"She was very ill and died before she finished speaking." Bai Yutang frowned, "Before she died, she said that Yang Caisheng's body was in Daofu Town. Before he died, he left a letter to let her , take it to my master, it can be regarded as fulfilling a last wish."

As he spoke, Bai Yutang pulled out a letter from his waist and handed it to Zhan Zhao.

Zhan Zhao was a little surprised when he received the letter, "Are you sure I can read it?"

Bai Yutang didn't care, "Did you kill Yang Caisheng?"

Zhan Zhao blinked, "Of course not."

"Then what can't you watch?" Bai Yutang stretched out his hand to pour the wine.

Zhan Zhao took the letter, and thought that Bai Yutang's temperament was cute!A gentleman can speak frankly and frankly to others!

Opening the letter, Yang Caisheng's handwriting was crooked... But Zhan Zhao could tell that his handwriting was supposed to be very good, but it might be because his body was weak and he couldn't hold the pen, so the handwriting was a little trembling.Looking at Xin Zhanzhao felt sad, why did a generation of famous knights end up like this?

The first part of the letter was to greet Tianzun's body, and said that he had insulted his master and dared not go back to the Tianshan sect to see his master. This letter was a last letter.Yang Caisheng seems to be very respectful and filial to Tianzun, and the beginning of the writing is very sincere and pious, which is touching.

In the latter part of the letter, Yang Caisheng talked about what happened back then.

It turned out that the woman he fell in love with was not a spy. She was a descendant of a tribe that had disappeared outside the Great Wall, and she came to the Central Plains to find a lost treasure of the tribe—the guillotine.

Yang Caisheng said in the letter that neither he nor the woman knew what was so special about this ordinary dagger, but it was just a commemoration of a tribe.However, in the process of searching for the dagger, he encountered some mysterious people from the rivers and lakes who chased him down and was later wanted.And the court official they "assassinated" was an important member of the Ministry of War, named Tan Jin.When Yang Caisheng and the others found out that the guillotine was in Tan Jin's hands, they just went to ask him for the knife, but they didn't expect to be ambushed and suffered an indiscriminate disaster.Yang Caisheng has been looking for Tan Jin's whereabouts since then, but he is very cunning. After resigning from office, he kept his name incognito. The last time anyone saw him was in Daofu Town.

"Guillotine..." After reading the letter, Zhan Zhao asked Bai Yutang in confusion, "What kind of knife is it? Is it famous?"

"I asked some friends outside the Great Wall to inquire about it, and no one has heard of the guillotine rumor." Bai Yutang received the letter, "My master didn't ask me to find a knife, but only asked me to find Yang Caisheng's body and send it back to Tianshan Buried with that girl."

Zhan Zhao nodded, Tianzun is quite humane, people in the world say that Tianzun is already detached from the world and has no feelings, it seems that this is not the case at all.

After Zhan Zhao was full, he felt that it was more important to do serious business, so he paid for the meal and asked Bai Yutang, "Are you going to find Yang Caisheng's body? Then I'll go." Investigate the case, I've been in the county office these days, if you want to drink, come to me."

Zhan Zhao got up to leave, but Bai Yutang pointed at the seat, "Aren't you going to help find the corpse?"

Zhan Zhao was taken aback, puzzled, "Huh?"

Bai Yutang frowned slightly, "You read the letter."

Zhan Zhao thought for a while, "You let me see it."

"You can't read it in vain." Bai Yutang lazily stretched out his hand to support his face, looked at Zhan Zhao, his beautiful eyes were lifeless, and seemed to be sleepy, "If you don't sincerely help, what are you doing reading the letter?"

Zhan Zhao opened his mouth wide and was blackmailed.

Bai Yutang smiled faintly, "The yamen should have the headbook of Daofu Town, so it won't be difficult to find Tan Jin."

Zhan Zhao understood this time, he said that Bai Yutang was so quick to show him the letter and the head, that he was being used as a coolie.

Bai Yutang looked at Tian Guang, "Then there is Brother Lao Zhan, I will stay in the inn opposite the Yamen, if you have any clues, come and find me." After speaking, he stood up and wanted to leave.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Zhan Zhao grabbed Bai Yutang's sleeve.

Bai Yutang looked back at him.

"How about this, Brother Bai, I'll help you find Tan Jin, and you help me catch a man in black." Zhan Zhao smiled, that brilliant, "Probably a little taller than you, dressed in black, with a black cloth mask, ghost Sneaky."

Bai Yutang was puzzled, "Arresting people is the business of your yamen..."

Zhan Zhao poked at the bowls and chopsticks on the table, "But you just ate, you can't eat for nothing!"

……

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao looked at each other.

Zhan Zhao reached out and grabbed a handful of peanuts, and stuffed them into Bai Yutang's hands, "I'll go back to the yamen and take a nap while you read the file. After you catch the man in black, remember to come find me."

Bai Yutang saw that Zhan Zhao was smiling so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, he was quite a cunning cat.

Afterwards, Zhan Zhao disappeared without a trace, and helped him take the head back, saying that he would test it for Mr. Gongsun.

Bai Yutang looked at the handful of peanuts in his hand, and felt for the first time that he could steal the peanuts... This Zhan Zhao was quite clever.

Then I thought about it—who are you looking for?Man in black?

Zhan Zhao returned to the yamen with a skeleton in his hand. Gongsun, Bao Zheng, and Pang Ji were discussing the case in the study. Where is the library or file room of this yamen?

As soon as I walked to the backyard, I heard a baby donkey crying.

Zhan Zhao poked his head into the yard to take a look, and saw that the fourth son took a wooden washbasin and knocked it on the ground, sitting on the washbasin by himself, holding two carrots in his hand, one for the little donkey to eat, and one for himself. bite.

Seeing this scene, Zhan Zhao put on a smile, walked up quickly, and squatted beside Xiao Si, "Little Si, why did you steal the little donkey's radish?"

The fourth son was chewing carrots, and when he saw Zhan Zhao, he also smiled, "Zhan Zhan, why are you back so soon?"

"Hmm." Zhan Zhao held the wooden box, "I changed to a lighter errand." While talking, he looked around, "Speaking of which, where is the magistrate?"

"Over there, I saw it just now." The fourth son stuffed the two leftover carrots to the little donkey, stood up and patted his buttocks, took Zhan Zhao's hand, and led him to find the magistrate.

Zhan Zhao followed the fourth son to the other courtyard, where the magistrate was sighing under a locust tree holding a teacup.

"Lord Wang." Zhan Zhao stepped forward.

"Oh, so it's Mr. Zhan." The magistrate put down his teacup, got up quickly and saluted Zhan Zhao.

Zhan Zhao asked him where the file room was.

The county magistrate was so nervous that his forehead was sweating, "Ju... file..."

Zhan Zhao was also a little puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"Master Zhan...does he want to investigate the past cases?" The magistrate was in a cold sweat, did Lord Bao really want to investigate him?In the past, many cases were still pending, and there might be misjudgments and misjudgments.

Seeing that he was nervous, Zhan Zhao thought it was quite funny, "I want to ask you for a head book, I want to find someone."

"Oh..." The county magistrate breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly ordered the master to find the head book and show it to Mr. Zhan.

Zhan Zhao took his fourth son to sit and wait in the side courtyard. There were three thick volumes of the headbook, and Zhan Zhao looked through each of them, and his fourth son also helped him search.

But the strange thing is that Zhan Zhao spent about an hour carefully going through the entire headbook of the three people, but he didn't find a person named Tan Jin.

Zhan Zhao called the master and asked him, "In the local area, is there a retired senior official from the Ministry of War called Tan Jin?"

Master shook his head, "Not really."

"Sure?"

The master smiled, "Lord Zhan, how high is the rank of a high-ranking official in the Ministry of War? How could he come to live in a remote village like Daofu Town? Besides, we have never had any high-ranking officials in Daofu Town. Members, everyone in the city must know, anyway, I was born and raised in Daofu Town, and I have never heard of Tan Jin."

Zhan Zhao felt strange—without Tan Jin, could he have changed his name?

If it is to change the name, it will be troublesome. There are so many people, how can I find it?

"Master Zhan, do you know the characteristics of that person?" Master asked, "There are not many people in Daofu Town. If you know the characteristics, you should be able to find them."

"Well, what about this..." Zhan Zhao wanted to ask Bai Yutang to come later, and ask him?

As soon as he thought of this, he saw Zhang Long rushing in, "Lord Zhan, Bai Yutang is here."

"Oh?" Zhan Zhao heard that he just asked about his characteristics, so he ran outside.

When the fourth son heard that Bai Yutang was coming, he also followed him out.

Zhan Zhao didn't forget to hold the box with Yang Caisheng's head in Bai Yutang's hand, but he went outside to take a look... Zhan Zhao felt a little regretful, shouldn't he avoid it first?

At this time, there were at least four to five hundred people standing at the gate of the yamen, and it was dark from a distance, all of them were tall men in black clothes.

The commotion outside alarmed Bao Zheng and the others inside, and everyone came out to watch.

Bao Zheng was a little dumbfounded when he saw that there were people in black at the door.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhan Zhao turned around and wanted to slip away first. A white figure landed beside him and patted him on the shoulder, "There are all tall men in black in Daofu Town here, go and pick one."

Everyone complained at the door, Bao Zheng squinted his eyes, and there were only two white slits left on the plate with a big black face, and he aimed at Zhan Zhao, what does that mean—what's going on?

Zhan Zhao reached out and tugged at Bai Yutang's sleeve, "Why did you arrest so many people? I want one, just one!"

"So I'll let you pick one, and let the others go later." Bai Yutang asked with a serious face, not joking, "I caught him, did you find Tan Jin for me?"

"Uh……"

Before Zhan Zhao could speak, Grand Master Pang, who was watching the excitement, suddenly asked, "Tan Jin?"

Zhan Zhao looked at Grand Master Pang, and had an idea, "Yes, Grand Master must know Tan Jin, an important member of the Ministry of War!"

Grand Master Pang nodded, "Is it really him? Of course I know him. I will be in charge of the Ministry of War."

Bao Zheng also came over and asked Pang Ji, "You mean Tan Jin?"

The grand master nodded, and a slight doubt flashed on the faces of both of them. It seemed that the name touched something they didn't want to mention.

Gongsun held the fourth son in his arms and went to the door to look around, saying that the person just now was not there. The fourth son was so dizzy that he couldn't recognize who it was.

After dismissing the man in black at the door, Bao Zheng didn't pursue Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao's mischief, but just looked at Pang Ji, "If you want to find Tan Jin, you should tell me."

Pang Ji stroked his beard and waved to the two, "This Tan Jin..."

"what!"

Grand Master Pang didn't say anything, when he heard the little four who was standing at the door watching the man in black leave suddenly called out.

Everyone looked out the door together.

I saw Xiao Si stretching out his hand and pointing to a black figure running away in a hurry in the distance, "It's him!"

Zhan Zhaoyi jumped out and chased him out.

Bai Yutang stood behind and watched, frowning slightly, "Qinggong is not bad..."

"That's that, that's said to be the best in the world." Pang Jitao approached.

But Bai Yutang shook his head, "I know, Zhan Zhao ran so far and didn't catch up, that man in black is really good at lightness."

Bao Zheng and Pang Ji looked at each other, and when they looked again, Zhan Zhao and the man in black had disappeared.

Bai Yutang also chased him out.

Gongsun hugged the fourth son and asked, "Your fourth son, are you reading right?"

"No, it must be him!" The fourth son nodded.

Gongsun hugged him and went after him.

Bao Zheng wanted to lead someone to chase him.

"Cough cough." Pang Ji coughed and waved his hand to Bao Zheng, "Old Bao, you are busy with your work, I will take care of it!"

Bao Zheng gave a dry laugh, "You fat man, seeing the suspect has Zhan Weiwei and Bai Shaoxia chasing him for you, so you want to sit back and reap the benefits, don't you?"

"Bah!" Pang Ji curled his lips, "Who do you think I am? I think I've dedicated myself to the country and the people..."

"Come on." Bao Zheng waved his hand and was too lazy to listen to his nonsense, "You take elite soldiers and chase after him. The identity of this person is unknown. Let's check it out and don't cause any trouble at that time."

"Don't worry about it." Pang Ji cheerfully got into the carriage and ordered people, "Follow me!"

Sitting on the carriage, Grand Master Pang was quite proud, "You bastard, you usually show off your power, but today my grand master will go out and show you what you can do!"

After everyone left, Bao Zheng also went back to his study to continue handling the case.

In the restaurant opposite the yamen, on the second floor by the window, a young man in a yellow gown held his chin and looked into the distance, "Oh, isn't that road idiot lost again? Why are you running to a dead end..."

A young man in ocher clothes pushed him aside, "Why are you still talking sarcasticly?"

"What are you afraid of?" The man in yellow grinned, "So what if you catch him? Are you afraid that Pang Ji won't be able to beat him?"

"Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang! Can the lord handle it?" A young man in purple poked his head out from the roof, "It seems that the lord doesn't know Zhan Zhao?"

"Wouldn't that be better." The man in yellow laughed happily, "Whether he is Zhan Zhao Bai Yutang or Zhan Zhao Jia Bai Yutang, as long as I can see him being beaten by Zhao Pu in my lifetime, I will die in peace."

The three of them raised their faces and imagined the scene——really, happy!

But after thinking about it, the three of them jumped onto the roof and followed quickly to make sure to see the next good show.
