I have a long pupil

Chapter 9
It was the boy who was beaten that day!

Zhang Biao's eyes were poisonous, and he recognized his identity immediately.

The little guy was so frightened that he trembled all over, and then he didn't even care about his back being scratched by the gravel in the dog hole, and ran desperately.

But obviously, he is also a courageous and scheming person.

Dare to go back to the scene to investigate, but also made an evacuation plan, got out of the dog hole, turned left and right in the complicated alleys, and then ran to a culvert.

There are open and underground canals between the various squares and cities in Yujing City. With the help of four canals that pass through the city, a dense waterway network is formed.

There is a special enclosed waterway in the inner courtyard of the palace.

But the people's drinking water and sewage discharge depend entirely on this water network.

Open channels and shafts are clean water.

Underdrains are used for sewage.

Although the feces are collected by a special incense, they are made into fertilizer and sold, which is very profitable.However, there is still sewage in the culvert all the year round, and the smell is unbearable, and snakes, insects, rats and ants live in it.

When Zhang Biao saw it, he knew what the other party wanted to do.

This culvert is connected to the Yongding Canal. After drilling into it, you only need to endure the stench and hold your breath, then you can follow the water flow into the canal and escape.

It's alert enough...

Zhang Biao secretly smiled inwardly, relying on his agility to walk on the wall of the abandoned house, seeing the opportunity to jump off, at the same time he swung his left arm suddenly.

clap la la...

The ecstasy chains whizzed out, and the tip of the gun in front twisted like a spirit snake and shook his head, instantly entangled the boy's right leg.

With a plop, the boy fell solidly into the mud, then screamed and struggled with both hands, and was pulled back.

"To shut up!"

Zhang Biao showed six bronze medals.

The boy immediately closed his mouth, his eyes full of surprise.

No wonder he was surprised, because Zhang Biao appeared here, which is really unreasonable.

This world of mortals seems to be mixed, but in fact there are clear barriers.

Even if dignitaries and ordinary people walk on the same street or eat in the same small shop, they are still people from two worlds.

The court and the market are always two thoughts.

One pays attention to power checks and balances,
One must learn etiquette, righteousness, benevolence, wisdom and trustworthiness.

The wolf and the sheep together form a set of order.

The rise and fall of the dynasty is the collapse and re-formation of this order.

The rivers and lakes are outside this order.

They have their own rules, like the killing before, they will digest it themselves, and the government will not come to ask.

The duty of the six gates is not to maintain the order of the rivers and lakes, but to form a guardrail between the rivers and lakes and the court and the market.

Gang fighting is okay, but spying on the regime is not.

It is okay to fight in the rivers and lakes, but not to affect the common people.

This is also the reason why the six-door is called the eagle dog.

"Catch...What's the matter with catcher?"

The young man stammered, seemingly panicked, but his eyes drifted away, thinking about an escape strategy.

Zhang Biao said in a deep voice, "What's your name?"

"The younger one is called Chen Er..."

The young man opened his mouth, and as soon as he replied half a sentence, he saw something shaking slightly in Zhang Biao's hand, and then his head seemed to be frozen, and his eyes gradually became dull.

"what's your name?"

Zhang Biao asked softly, holding the ecstasy mirror.

This young man has been hanging around in the rivers and lakes for a long time, unless he is tortured, he will not tell the truth at all, and it will be faster to ask him with a weapon.

Sure enough, the boy began to answer blankly.

"My name is Tian Yue."

"What do you do for a living?"

"Tomb robbery digs graves for a living."

"Who killed those people?"

"Yi Chonghui."

"Why do you do it?"

"Master led us to dig the Snake Temple and found some artifacts. After those people came to snatch them away, they said they didn't want the news to be revealed, and then killed them to silence them..."

"What is the Snake Temple?"

"In Tuwan Village, outside Yujing City, there is an ancient temple hidden in a cave in the back mountain. The temple has collapsed, and there is only half a stone snake statue. The master does not know the origin, so it is called the Snake Temple..."

"What did you all find?"

"A bronze mirror and a stone incense burner."

"Where's the incense burner?"

"The incense burner was robbed by them, saying..."

Zhang Biao kept asking, doubts arose in his heart.

He knew that Yichong met Yichong, a general from the former dynasty, who took bravery and sincerity as his creed, but in fact he was doing the business of helping people lend money and collect loans, and he had a lot of influence in Yujing City.

Some casinos, Taoist temples, and even high-ranking officials are its customers, depositing money in Yichonghui, lending money to the common people, and collecting dividends on time.

I don't know how many people died because of their family's ruin.

Speaking of which, he is also an old acquaintance.

The several tragedies that Zhang Biao organized were all related to this Yi Chong Association, and there were many conflicts with it, but because of the protection of high-ranking officials and dignitaries, only some peripheral people were cut off.

Later, the chief arrester, Guo An, was so annoyed that he handed over all the cases related to Yichonghui to another arrester and prohibited him from participating.

That head catcher is a clever man, pretending to be deaf and dumb, and taking filial piety with great joy.

Some people from the six doors taunted him with this incident.

According to various clues, the Snake Temple is related to monks.

This charity meeting,

Where did you get the news?

spiritual recovery,

I'm afraid I'm not the only one who knows...

Zhang Biao was thoughtful, and finally held the magic mirror and said softly: "You don't remember me. You saw the tragic death of master and junior, and planned to escape from Yujing City, hiding your name..."

After a long time, the boy slowly woke up.

He looked at the empty dark alley, with fear in his eyes, and jumped into the dark ditch...

…………

When we returned to Anzhenfang, it was already sunset in the west.

On the gate towers of each square city, Marquis Wu tried his best to ring the bronze bell, and the bells echoed in the whole city together.

This is a signal that the gate is about to close.

Although Yujing City does not enforce a curfew on weekdays, the doors of the workshop will be closed when night falls, and the reasons must be explained for all transactions, and it is very inconvenient to accept interrogation.

The officials are good to say, but if the common people meet a black-hearted Marquis Wu, they will inevitably be blackmailed, so they usually don't go out after sunset.

Therefore, the capital city at night is another world.

Kings and grandsons, nobles, singing and dancing in the mansion.

Rich and powerful officials and gentry, wine and meat rejoice in brothels.

People in the rivers and lakes, blood spattered five steps on the long street.

Before Zhang Biao reached the gate, he saw Wang Xinshou in front of the gate, with a yarrow in his mouth, chatting with Marquis Wu.

"Brother Biao, you are back."

Wang Xin stepped forward quickly, winked and said: "I don't stay at home all day, could it be that there is a girl I know in Taipingfang?"

"That must be!"

Zhang Biao laughed, and patted Wang Xin on the shoulder, "Since you're here, come and have a drink with me."

"Let's talk about it another day."

Wang Xin said with a bitter face: "The chief arrester ordered us to take turns on night patrol, and Huo Feng is in charge. That guy only wants to be a gold medal catcher. Once he is caught lazy, he will inevitably be punished."

Zhang Biao was speechless, "What is the emperor going to do?"

The six-door night patrol is nothing more than suppressing people in the rivers and lakes.

The current emperor has the best face.

Every time there is a palace banquet, the chief catcher Guo An will always send them out, lest the knight-errants make any trouble and the six doors will be reprimanded.

"Not the emperor's side..."

Wang Xin looked around, and then said in a low voice: "Brother Biao, do you still remember the Chen Hou'er we caught?"

Zhang Biao nodded, "It's just a prostitute, what kind of trouble can it cause?"

"Of course he doesn't have the ability."

Wang Xin sneered and said: "This guy has committed a crime and dared to run to the capital. Hei Hades, who is in charge of the torture, resorted to more methods and asked for a piece of news."

"The Killing Cult has appeared again..."

"what?!"

Zhang Biao was stunned, and suddenly felt his scalp go numb.

No matter how cruel the Yichong Society is, it is a gang after all, and it seeks profit. It has to manage from top to bottom, but it does not dare to violate the court's laws.

But this killing religion is different.

This is an ancient sect that acts strangely and believes that everything can be obtained through killing.

If you want money, kill people.

If you want power, just kill your opponent.

As long as you join Shashengjiao, they will even send someone to help you.

But when you get used to these, you will find that there is nothing in the world that cannot be solved by killing.

If there is, it means not killing enough.

Once riches and honors are in hand, one will gradually become numb and realize that only killing can bring pure joy.

The former dynasty collapsed, and the warlords and towns were separated. Many generals believed in the religion of killing animals, cooking people and eating meat for pleasure. Kyushu was like hell.

From the beginning of the Liang Dynasty, it severely cracked down on the killing religion. Once it was found to be a believer, it would be a crime against the whole family.

Even so, it can't be cut off, it just makes it hide deeper.

It can be said that the Killing Sect is the Demon Sect of the Liang Dynasty!
Seeing Zhang Biao's appearance, Wang Xin smiled and said, "Actually, there is no need to worry too much. Every year there are rumors of the revival of the Killing Sect. There are so many masters in the capital. They dare to come because they are stupid."

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Zhang Biao stared, and reprimanded: "It might be true this time, be smart when you watch the night, and run away if you have something to do!"

Wang Xin's father was his father's subordinate, and this boy followed him since he was a child, almost like his own brother, so he was naturally worried about his safety.

"Don't worry, Brother Biao."

Seeing that Zhang Biao was angry, Wang Xin also put away his foolish appearance, and said in a deep voice: "There is one more thing this time, Xiao San's case is settled, and the Ministry of Criminal Justice will order him to execute him after five days."

"Well, I see, be careful."

"Okay, Brother Biao."

After listening to some instructions, Wang Xin turned and left.

Watching the opponent's figure disappear, Zhang Biao looked up at the sky.

The sun has set, and the night is like a curtain covering most of the sky, the moon is gone, and the stars are dim.

"The storm is coming..."
