Chapter 4

"Jingzhou was called Jiangling and Yingdu in ancient times.

It is said that floods in ancient times flowed across different regions, and after Dayu controlled the floods, they were divided into Ji, Yan, Qing, Xu, Yang, Jing, Yu, Liang, and Yong, a total of nine states.

After thousands of years of development, the land of Jingxiang has formed a splendid folk culture, and the oldest is the Jingchu culture, which lasts for more than [-] years..."

Traveling is a boring thing, especially when the weather is so hot, riding a horse will sweat a lot.

In order to distract his attention, Shen Lian told Lu Jianxing about the history of Jingxiang, so as to impress him with the literary spirit of Jingzhou talents.

It's a pity that Lu Jianxing, a rough old man, has never been interested in these things: "Second brother, I, a rough man, don't understand this, tell me about famous people from Jingchu."

Shen Lian said with a smile: "If you want to say that the most famous person in the land of Jingxiang, the first must be King Chuzhuang."

Lu Jianxing said: "King Chuzhuang? I've heard of this name before. Is it the one who became famous?"

Shen Lian added: "If you don't fly for three years, you will soar into the sky. If you don't sing for three years, you will become a blockbuster."

"I remember that during the Three Kingdoms period of the Later Han Dynasty, Jingzhou was very lively. Why wasn't the most famous person Liu Bei and Guan Yu? How could he become the King of Chuzhuang?"

Lu Jianxing likes to listen to books on weekdays, especially loyal ministers and good generals, and brotherly loyalty. He is very, very interested in stories about the Later Han and Three Kingdoms years.

Shen Lian explained: "Liu Bei used to occupy part of Jingzhou, but he was not born here. If you calculate it like this, there are too many people who meet the conditions."

"Don't talk about this, let's get down to business. Second brother, you said that you should travel lightly this time. I listened to you and only brought eighteen people, including twenty of us.

Those small families naturally dare not take action against Jin Yiwei, but if they are pushed into a hurry and the Jingxiang martial arts unite, we will instantly turn into flesh.

Tell me, what's your idea?
Don't think I don't know, Shen Yumen is eyeing Jing Xiang, this piece of fat, do you want Shen Yumen to charge ahead?Will this loss be too great?
Listen to me, it's the most convenient for me to do it!

If you let me lead the three hundred Jin Yiwei, and use Ling Tuisi's excuse to plow the land several times and clean up Jingzhou, then your brother..."

Lu Jianxing touched the Yanling Saber on his waist.

Every Jin Yiwei is a killer. Lu Jianxing's ability to become a governor depends not only on the gold and silver that Shen refined, but also on the merits of charging bravely and licking the blood of the sword.

Shen Lian rubbed his head helplessly.

"Hehe, Jin Yiwei is rushing in front, and my elder brother is taking advantage of it in the back. Do you think he can still mess around in the Jianghu, and directly become a public enemy of the Jianghu?"

"What do you want?"

"Investigate the case. The task of the imperial court is to investigate the case. My duty is to investigate the case. Apart from investigating the case, I don't care about other things. You must not be nosy."

"You mean, the water in Jingzhou is very muddy?"

Lu Jianxing is by no means a brave and reckless man, but he likes to use the simplest means to achieve his goals.

Hearing Shen Lian's words, he immediately understood that Ling Tuisi's murder was not a single incident, but a certain person, or a certain force, deliberately muddied the water for a certain benefit.

"From the time I started to the present, I have seen spies from Liufenbantang, Tsingyilou, Jinfengxiaoyulou, Qianqian Gang and other sects, a total of 130 people.

When we get to Jingzhou, how many spies do you think the major forces will come to?How many masters will participate?

If it were a vendetta, love and hatred, would it attract so many powerful spies?
What kind of benefits would allow the people behind the scenes to assassinate a fourth-rank magistrate, and what kind of drama is worth starting with the life of a fourth-rank official?

Didn't the people behind the scenes know that the assassination of Ling Tuisi would attract the Six Doors, Jinyiwei, and Dongchang?
he knows!
But he still chose to do it!
Because the benefits are so great that he ignores the risks, I even think that this person will definitely release some news to attract more people. "

Lu Jianxing lightly stroked the stubble on his chin, and said with a little expectation: "The picture is not small, I want to see what big treasure is hidden in Jingzhou!"

Shen Lian joked: "Maybe it is the bird wings left by King Zhuang of Chu, or the Jiuding of Emperor Zhou, or it may be the formation-breaking spear of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu."

"What are bird wings for?"

"Bake and eat!"

……

Since ancient times, strong dragons have never overwhelmed local snakes. Although Jingxiang does not have a big martial arts school, they are all small families, but the network of relationships is extremely complicated, and one move can affect the whole body.

Due to the assassination of Ling Tuisi, the prefect of Jingzhou, everyone in the local gangs is in danger. In recent days, rumors have spread in Jingzhou city that there is a city-wide treasure hidden in the city.

There are intertwined forces inside, powerful dragons of various forces outside, and conspirator behind the scenes, Jingzhou has gathered the momentum that the mountains and rains are about to come.

The arrival of Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing was like dropping a stone, causing countless splashes.

However, the two of them did not go to check on the martial arts people. Instead, they went straight to the county government office to check on Ling Tuisi's body.

When they arrived, they realized that the matter was far more serious than imagined. It was not only Ling Tuisi who was assassinated, but all the Facao, Yincao, and Sima in Jingzhou were assassinated.

In the entire Jingzhou government office, the highest official position is actually Jiangling county magistrate, who smells strongly of alcohol and is as decadent as a gambling dog who has lost all his family property.

Seeing Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing, the county magistrate neither saw the savior nor trembled with fear. Instead, he simply fell down and snored immediately.

Lu Jianxing was very dissatisfied with this, and immediately wanted to punish the county magistrate for neglecting the superior official. Shen Lian smiled, persuaded Lu Jianxing, and asked the yamen servant to send the county magistrate home.

“Brother, it’s really not easy for this county magistrate.

First of all, all the senior officials in the state capital were assassinated, and he became the person with the highest official position, so he was naturally frightened.

Secondly, these days, I don't know how many people from martial arts are secretly investigating the government office. These people are all lawless people, and the county magistrate must not be able to sleep well at night.

In the end, even if he was guilty, it was because of the current situation, beyond the limit of his ability, how could he be the magistrate of a small county magistrate?
Under such a repressive situation, being able to persist for such a long time is already very official.

Take a step back, even if he is incompetent, even if he is guilty, but he is the official who is most familiar with this matter, if he is dealt with, who do we turn to for information? "

Lu Jianxing snorted coldly: "Listen to you, let's go and see the corpse first. If it is well preserved, I will spare him this time. If it is not well preserved... Humph!"

The bodies were all kept in the morgue.

The weather was hot and the body was prone to decay, so the county magistrate specially prepared ice cubes, autopsy procedures, and crime scene records.

Lu Jianxing nodded: "This guy is doing pretty well, so I'll spare him...bring me the county magistrate right away, and wake him up with ice water!"

But it was Lu Jianxing who lifted up the white cloth and found that Ling Tuisi's body had been severely decayed. In some places, the skin and flesh were even worn away, and his true appearance could no longer be seen clearly.

Shen Lian narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Wu Zuo: "I remember that all these corpses must be embalmed."

Wu Zuo knelt down and begged: "Report to the lord, the villain has already dealt with it, and this matter has nothing to do with me!"

Lu Jianxing's eyes showed a fierce light, and the evil spirit that was almost condensed into reality crazily hit Wu Zuo's mind, Wu Zuo was so frightened that he trembled, cried loudly, and poured urine and feces.

Shen Lian did not press Wu Zuo, but examined the traces of the corpse in detail, and found that the corpses in the morgue were more or less decayed, all caused by human beings.

The corpse was embalmed, but someone used a strange poison to turn the embalming agent into accelerating decay, making the decay ten times faster.

If they had come a few days later, most of these corpses would have turned into bones, and there would be nothing Song Ci could do if he came.

Lu Jianxing sighed: "This incident is most likely done by martial arts masters, second child, who is the strongest martial arts force in Jiangling City, let's go and visit one or two."

Shen Lian smiled and said: "In Jiangling City, the strongest one is Wan Zhenshan, and outside Jiangling City is Wudang Rouyun Temple. My eldest brother is going to visit the Wan family, and I am going to visit Wudang."

"Why didn't I go to Rouyun Temple?"

"I'm afraid that you will be subdued by the Taoist priest!"
