Chapter 257
Gao Tianhai was dressed in official clothes, with a kind face, and beside him was a woman in black tights, with a protruding front and back, and a good-looking appearance.

But the woman's eyes were like swords, with killing intent transpiring.

Yang Jiu clasped his fists and said with a smile, "Xiaguan Yang Jiu, I have met Mr. Gao."

As a magistrate, Guan must be far superior to Yang Jiu.

"Master Yang, please come in for tea." Gao Tianhai turned and entered the room.

Gan Sisi only felt that there must be a fraud.

Now even if there is a fire pit in front of you, you have to jump into it.

The main house is very spacious and luxuriously furnished.

All tables, chairs and shelves are made of high-quality mahogany with exquisite workmanship.

After being seated, a maid served hot tea.

The brazier in the house was not burning very well, and it felt that the inside of the house was not as warm as the outside.

It's good to have a cup of hot tea.

But Gao Tianhai's tea, it's best not to drink it.

"Master Yang, try it." Gao Tianhai picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, with an expression of extreme enjoyment.

Yang Jiu also picked up the tea bowl, but without taking a sip, she smiled lightly and said, "I guess Mr. Gao doesn't know about the matter of Wen's Village?"

"Wen's Village?" Gao Tianhai looked puzzled.

As a magistrate, the scope of jurisdiction is very large. If it is not a particularly famous village, it is normal that you have never heard of it.

Gao Tianhai caught foxes in Wenjia Village and killed the villagers, so he must know everything.

But if you can deny this kind of thing, it is best not to admit it.

Yang Jiu said with a smile: "When I came to the government office just now, I could smell a strong smell of fox."

"Lord Yang..." Gao Tianhai was about to speak, but saw an officer rushing in quickly, whispering to Gao Tianhai's ear.

Gao Tianhai's expression changed suddenly, he stood up abruptly, and glared at Yang Jiu angrily.

Yang Jiu's handful of poisonous powder actually ruined the lives of hundreds of elite soldiers.

Such a method is really cruel and deserves death.

"Yang Jiu, you are killing innocent people indiscriminately, what do you think of the court's laws and saints?" Gao Tianhai asked angrily with a righteous voice.

Yang Jiu took a sip of tea, smiled and said, "Master Gao, drink tea first, drink tea first."

Just asking angrily, it really made Gao Tianhai's throat a little dry.

He sat down again, drank the tea in the bowl in one gulp, and said in a cold voice, "Even if Mr. Yang is Governor Wei's own son, he can't act recklessly like this."

"Master Gao, I just want to know why you are so obsessed with fox fur?" Yang Jiu asked with a smile.

If Gao Tianhai wants to make money, he must have more means. Using the lives of the villagers in Wenjia Village to trap foxes to make a fortune is too risky.

The use of those fox furs may not only be for selling money, but there must be more important uses.

Gao Tianhai thought it was funny, Yang Jiu really regarded himself as a character, thinking that Lao Tzu would answer whatever he asked?
"I have to follow Governor Wei's orders. As for what Governor Wei wants those fox furs for, I don't know." But when he opened his mouth, Gao Tianhai jumped up from his chair.

what happened?

I actually told the truth?

Gao Tianhai just couldn't believe it, after all, this is impossible.

Yang Jiu frowned, unexpectedly Wei Zhongxian was behind the scenes.

The purpose of Wei Zhongxian's wanting fox fur is definitely not for money, it's just because Wei Zhongxian already has a lot of money, and now Wei Zhongxian should also consider longevity.

Refining corpses can lead to longevity, no matter in the rivers and lakes or in the court, there are many people who believe this.

Just asking for so many fox furs, what does it have to do with longevity?
Yang Jiu thought about it and asked again: "Why does Governor Wei have so many fox furs?"

As the person who found the fox fur for Wei Zhongxian, Gao Tianhai might know some inside information.

"I don't know the details, all I know is that the Governor wants to live forever." Gao Tianhai replied.

Gao Tianhai wanted to cut off his tongue.

Until now, he didn't understand why Yang Jiu would answer whatever Yang Jiu asked.

The woman in black standing next to Gao Tianhai suddenly showed a soft sword and asked angrily, "What did you do to your lord?"

"I haven't been close to Mr. Gao, what do you think I can do to Mr. Gao? I think Mr. Gao's conscience has discovered that he can no longer help Wei Zhongxian to be a minion." Yang Jiu chuckled.

Hearing this, Gao Tianhai's eyes were full of doubts.

Holding Wei Zhongxian's token, Yang Jiu bluffs and deceives everywhere, and seems to be very dissatisfied with Wei Zhongxian in his words.

Yang Jiu stood up and said, "The last question, how many fox furs do you have?"

"The foxes under my jurisdiction can catch almost all of them. There are about more than 1000 fox skins accumulated due to the heavy snow." Gao Tianhai said respectfully.

Every time Gao Tianhai spoke, his whole body trembled with anger.

Gan Sisi couldn't help asking: "How many foxes did you kill in total?"

Gao Tianhai glared coldly, he could ignore Gan Sisi's question.

Yang Jiu said: "Answer this question."

"With a few hundred more, it will be over ten thousand." Gao Tianhai slumped on the chair completely.

When Fan Yangjiu asked, it was absolutely impossible to lie.

Gao Tianhai really couldn't figure out when Yang Jiu moved his hands and feet.

The key is how to do it so that a person can answer every question and answer all the truth.

"Jiulang, why do you think Wei Zhongxian wants so many fox skins?" Gan Sisi didn't even know how many foxes there are in this world.

Only those who were hunted and killed by Wei Zhongxian were terrifying.

Gao Tianhai is hunting foxes for Wei Zhongxian, and I believe that there will be many officials in other places doing the same thing.

If Wei Zhongxian kept all these fox skins, they would probably be piled up like a mountain in the East Factory.

I think Wei Zhongxian will find a safe place to store it.

Yang Jiu was quite familiar with Dongchang, and racked his brains, but couldn't figure out where this place was.

The reason why Gao Tianhai is so obedient is that Yang Jiu used his internal force to send a drop of truth water into Gao Tianhai's tea bowl when Gao Tianhai was not paying attention.

This matter was done very secretly, even the woman in black didn't notice it.

The martial arts of the woman in black must be very high.

Gao Tianhai is so confident because of the close protection of such experts.

"Master Gao, please take care of yourself." Yang Jiu stood up and wanted to leave.

Gao Tianhai hurriedly asked: "Aren't you from the governor?"

"Yes, or not, Mr. Gao can guess for himself." Yang Jiu waved his hand and strode out of the house.

Gan Sisi followed Yang Jiu closely, and asked in a low voice, "Jiulang, are we really going to let this dog official go like this?"

The disaster in Wenjia Village was caused by Wei Zhongxian wanting a large amount of fox fur, but Gao Tianhai was the one who actually took action.

Gao Tianhai's crimes are monstrous, so he really let him go like this?
Yang Jiu looked back at Gao Tianhai, and said with a smile: "Even if we want to let Gao Tianhai go, Gao Tianhai will not let us go."

"Then we..." Gan Sisi felt that it was time to go back and kill Gao Tianhai.

Yang Jiu dragged Gan Sisi away.

They found an inn in the city to stay. If they wanted to kill Gao Tianhai, they had to make a long-term plan.

Just breaking into the government office and beheading the magistrate like this is too high-profile.

After they left the government office, Gao Tianhai sat slumped on a chair, unable to figure out the reason.

"My lord, do you want to kill them?" the woman in black asked in a low voice.

Gao Tianhai waved his hand and said, "This Yang Jiu is, after all, the most important person in the Governor's eyes. If he dies on my territory, how do you want me to explain to the Governor?"

If Wei Zhongxian hadn't been pressing on his head, Gao Tianhai would not have allowed Yang Jiu to leave the government office alive.

"Send someone to watch them. I feel that this Yang Jiu is not that loyal to the Governor, but it is also possible that what he said just now is to test me." Gao Tianhai was quite conflicted.

It stands to reason that he helped Wei Zhongxian make such a great contribution, Wei Zhongxian should have transferred him to Chang'an City and entrusted him with important tasks.

How many years have passed, and he is still a little magistrate.

Now that old man Di Juyi is working on a new deal, the most important part of the new deal is to rectify the administration of officials.

If Di Juyi succeeds in doing this, it will definitely be very difficult for him to enter Chang'an City as a high official in the future.

Even with Wei Zhongxian's recommendation, it was useless.

Di Juyi's thinking is very clear, that is, those who are able should live.

……

"Shuang'er, let me just say, this Yang Jiu is just pretending, I'm afraid he will bring people back to Wenjia Village soon, and kill all the rest of your village." Shi Lingling ate the wonton, Had a good laugh.

If Yang Jiu is really a good person, she really doesn't know what to do.

But if Yang Jiu is a villain who does all kinds of evil, then she kills her to kill harm for the people.

Wen Shuang said: "You also saw that Yang Jiu killed that bad general."

"There is a saying that cuts the weeds and removes the roots." Shi Lingling swallowed the wonton in his mouth.

The fox hunting in Wenjiacun is over. Isn't it Wei Zhongxian's usual method to eliminate some insiders?

Wen Shuang ate with her head down, but she had already decided in her heart that Yang Jiu was not a bad person.

Just because of his promise to her, no matter if she was there or not, Yang Jiu would travel thousands of miles to come to this icy and snowy northern Xinjiang.

On the way, Yang Jiu smoothly took care of the magistrate Song who caused the disaster, and poisoned the general who harmed others. Could such a person be a bad person?

When Shi Xiongxiong didn't care about Wenjiacun, she knew that Shi Xiongxiong was not a good official.

After that, Shi Xiongxiong's true face was revealed by Yang Jiu, and those who were killed by Shi Xiongxiong were all innocent.

It's a pity that Shi Lingling doesn't seem to be able to see this, she just wants to avenge her father, of course this is a perfectly normal thing, who made Shi Xiongxiong her real father?

"Don't worry, Shuang'er, I have arranged for people to stay in Wen's Village. If anyone dares to hurt innocent people, they will be buried in the ice and snow." Shi Lingling felt that she was not full, so she asked the boss for another bowl of wontons.

In the severe cold of winter, it is very enjoyable to eat a bowl of steaming wontons.

……

Yang Jiu and Gan Sisi are also eating wontons at the moment.

But this store is three streets away from the one where Shi Lingling and Wen Shuang are located.

"Jiulang, have you noticed that someone seems to be following us?" Gan Sisi was always vigilant.

Yang Jiu said with a smile: "There are two groups of people staring at us right now, one group has been following us since we left Chang'an, and the other group should be Gao Tianhai's people."

Accustomed to living a comfortable life in Chang'an City, Gan Sisi was a little unaccustomed to the intrigues in the arena, fighting and killing.

After eating the wontons, the two returned to the inn hand in hand.

Yang Jiu always felt that Shi Xiongxiong had something to do with the Fox Pi case.

Unexpectedly, after arriving in Northern Xinjiang, the first person to find out was Wei Zhongxian.

Gao Tianhai, who has eaten the water of truth, cannot lie.

But Shi Xiongxiong is already dead, even if it has something to do with the fox fur, it is meaningless.

But Wei Zhongxian, really intends to use so many fox skins to become a fairy?

Although the fox fur has undergone special treatment, the smell has been greatly weakened, but how to cover up the smell emitted by so many fox furs piled up together?

"Let's go, don't interfere with my business." As soon as I arrived at the door of the inn, I saw the innkeeper kicking out a beggar.

The beggar's clothes were very thin, his bare feet were red from the cold, and he was limping when he walked. It seemed that he might fall down at any time.

The beggar was not discouraged, but took a deep breath, and then walked to the next house.

The closer you get to the border, the more difficult life is for the people.

Now the Kingdom of Jin has not yet come over. Once the Kingdom of Jin invades, many people will have to flee with their families.

When the war is over, come back here to make money.

As a result, not all those who left came back in the end.

The life of ordinary people is sad, but at least they can eat three meals a day.

But life is even more difficult for beggars in northern Xinjiang. Many beggars will starve to death or freeze to death if they can't last a few days.

But in this world, there is no shortage of beggars in any era.

Whether it is the poor or the rich, it is possible to become a helpless beggar.

"I have some silver here, you can use it to buy something to eat." Gan Sisi caught up with the beggar, holding an ingot of ten taels of silver in his hand.

Unexpectedly, the beggar didn't reach out his hand, and begged: "Please give me something to eat."

"You can buy food with the money." Gan Sisi felt that the beggar must have been starved.

The beggar said: "No one will sell things to people like us."

If the silver is useful, the beggar will definitely take it.

But compared to the ten taels of silver, he hoped that Gan Sisi would give him a warm white steamed bun.

"Wait a minute." Gan Sisi entered the inn, brought out two roast chickens and handed them to the beggar.

The beggar was grateful to Dade, squatted directly to one side, and started to gobble it up.

If he went back to the ruined temple to enjoy it, he might not even be able to grab the chicken butt.

Entering the inn, Gan Sisi asked curiously: "Boss, why don't you sell them food?"

"I really want to sell it, but if I really do, who will patronize my shop in the future?" The innkeeper was also very helpless.

The folk customs here are like this, no one will look down on beggars, especially those beggars who have hands and feet and look healthy.

Being able to eat with both hands, but being a beggar is all a habitual fault.

If everyone refuses to give alms to beggars, I believe there will be no beggars left in this world soon.

Gan Sisi wanted to argue with the innkeeper, but was dragged upstairs by Yang Jiu.

Discrimination like this, in this place, certainly cannot be formed overnight.

Going back to the room and soaking their feet, Yang Jiu felt that it was time for them to do something serious.

Yang Jiu thought that Gao Tianhai would do something, but he didn't expect that no one would disturb them after sleeping until dawn.

It's fine if Gao Tianhai didn't send someone, and the other force didn't take any action, so it really can't be justified.

"I think this is very good." Gan Sisi smiled.

In fact, Yang Jiu was waiting for Gao Tianhai to do it first, but if Gao Tianhai didn't do it alive or dead, then tonight would be Gao Tianhai's death day.

It is said that the moon is dark and the wind is high on the night of killing people. Now that the full moon has passed early and the cold night is like ink, it is most suitable for killing people.

After washing their faces, the two came to the street, planning to buy some gifts for everyone.

In the market in northern Xinjiang, some gadgets are sold, even in the South City of Chang'an City, you may not be able to find them.

"Jiulang, someone is following us." Gan Sisi pretended to be picking out gifts, but she was secretly observing the people who followed them.

Yang Jiudao: "It's Shi Lingling and Wenshuang."

"How do you know?" Gan Sisi observed several times, but failed to see the appearance of the stalker.
