Therefore, for these people to dare to directly kill so many people in front of so many people, and the leader of the son is so confident, there is obviously a good reason.
But even so, the strong dragon does not overwhelm the local snake. These people look like strangers. It should be that they have not been in Fufeng County for a long time. It is really chilling to be so arrogant and domineering in such a short period of time.
Originally, the current Fufeng County is full of dragons and snakes, and the imperial court intends to increase troops here. Such a large-scale killing can only speed up the imperial court's increase of troops in Fufeng County.
In this way, wouldn't they be in danger, the green forest thugs and Jiangyang thieves?
During the period when the news of the treasure of Famen Temple appeared, the people who came to Fufeng County were not easy-going lamps, and all of them were desperadoes.
At this moment, they suddenly had a premonition that their happy days seemed to be coming to an end.
"What is the background of that person? Looking at their weapons and skills, they are obviously good players..."
"Could it be the son of some martial arts family? They also have their eyes on the treasure of Famen Temple?"
"In any case, this man seems extremely difficult to deal with."
Many rumors and rumors began to spread, and gradually, except for the more courageous people who remained in place, the rest of the men of the bandits and thieves all fled away.
……
Half an hour later, in the innermost meditation room of Famen Temple, a bald man in casual clothes was reporting to an old monk sitting on a futon.
This meditation room is the innermost part of Famen Temple, and there are also many meditation rooms gathered around it, but there is a large area of vegetable fields here, which seems to be the vegetable garden of Famen Temple.
"Elder..." The little bald head carefully performed a Buddhist salute to the old monk, and said in a low voice, "Something happened."
The old monk was wearing a gray monk robe, with two black and white eyebrows above his eyes, he twirled the beads carelessly, and said leisurely: "What happened?"
"People died in the city today." Xiaobald said.
"Oh..." The old monk's face was flat, and he didn't seem to care.
"Thirty people died!" At this time, the little bald head added.
The movement of the old monk's hands stopped, his expression changed slightly, and he said, "Who killed it?"
The little bald head thought about it carefully, and said: "Elder, there are 21 people in total, and the leader is a young man in his twenties, who seems to be a young man from a wealthy family."
"Who was it to kill?" The old monk's face was not very relaxed.
"Half a month ago, people from Zhang Peng came to the Yaowang Mountain in Fufeng County, Kuangfeng Village."
The little bald head looked up at the old monk, and said, "And they even took Zhang Peng away."
The old monk was silent for a while, then continued to twist the beads, and said: "Well, I see, you can go down now."
"Yes!" The little bald head replied, and hurried out of the meditation room.
……
Zhu Song arranged for a few of his men to escort Zhang Peng and the others to Jin Yiwei's secret guardhouse, while he continued to wander around with the rest of his men.
The afternoon was fleeting, and night fell.
Zhu Song naturally returned to the Fufeng County Guard, but the Fufeng County Magistrate Bai Keqi walked around the mansion anxiously, refusing to fall asleep for a long time.
He also received news about what happened in the afternoon, and this matter is inextricably related to him.
He sent someone to find his brain truster, when the county magistrate Hai Dagu came over, Bai Keqi said worriedly: "Dagu, this time, I'm afraid it will be a big trouble."
Hai Dagu spent the whole afternoon dealing with Huang San, the spokesperson of the King of Han, and he just came from the Fufeng County Guard, how would he know what happened in the city in the afternoon?
However, seeing the appearance of his county magistrate, it must be a serious matter, so he asked: "Don't worry, magistrate, what trouble is it to tell the subordinates first?"
Bai Keqi frowned and said: "Weishi, the county government received a report, saying that a murder occurred at the intersection of Huangya Street in the city. At first, the official thought it was just an ordinary murder case, who knew that Zhang Ping and the others would be sent there Only later did I realize that 33 people had died!"
"What?" Hai Dagu's body twitched, his eyes widened, and he said, "How is this possible? After all, Huangya Street is a busy city. If you kill someone, you will be seen by others. Taking a step back, The number of soldiers in our Fufeng County Guard is five times that of other counties and counties. They kill people in the street, so aren't they afraid of being hunted down by the court?"
"When have you ever seen this world, and there are things Jin Yiwei dare not do?" Bai Keqi's voice was a little cold.
"Jin Yiwei?" Hai Dagu instinctively sensed that something was wrong, "Are you sure it was someone from Jin Yiwei who did it?"
"Jin Yiwei has sent someone to send a warrant!" Bai Keqi shook his head, and said, "It's just that some people died, and this is not what I am most worried about. Do you know who are the people who died?"
"Who?" Hai Dagu has not recovered from the shock.
"Zhang Peng, Zhang Peng's people from Kuangfengzhai!" Bai Keqi said without a word: "Besides, Zhang Peng is said to have been taken away while he was still alive." (To be continued.)
Chapter 197 Visit by County Magistrate Bai
"Grandfather, do you mean that Zhang Peng and the others were taken away by Jin Yiwei?" Hai Dagu's face turned pale, he couldn't believe this fact.
"Besides them, I really can't think of anyone else." The expression on Bai Keqi's face was not very good either.
"Then grandpa, what should we do now?" Hai Dagu panicked.
Bai Keqi didn't speak, because he was already in a mess, otherwise he wouldn't have brought Hai Dagu here.
"These Jin Yiwei should have come to Fufeng County with King Han. How about this, I'll go to King Han to find out. If there is really no other way, I can only let Zhang Peng and the others die."
After thinking for a long time, Bai Keqi said.
"Grandpa, you... are you crazy?" Hai Dagu stared straight at his eyes, and said: "Since Zhang Peng was captured by Jinyiwei, he must be locked up in Jinyiwei's temporary residence. People can't do this, if they are discovered during the operation..."
"Who said that this official is going to use our people." Bai Keqi interrupted Hai Dagu, and said, "You must know that there are gangsters and robbers from all over the Ming Dynasty gathered in Fufeng County right now, and many of them They are all wanted by the imperial court..."
A flash of understanding flashed across Hai Dagu's face, and he said, "Grandpa, do you mean to let these people do it? But they are bandits and we are officials, why should they help us?"
"Help?" Bai Keqi sneered, and said, "As the saying goes, money can turn ghosts around. Why do these bandits and avenues come to our Fufeng County? Isn't it for the treasures of Famen Temple? As long as we pay money to hire them Do you think they won't make a move?"
"Your Excellency is wise!" Hai Dagu praised.
"Okay, hurry up and prepare a generous gift. I will visit King Han now." Bai Keqi said.
"Grandpa, it's almost night now, if you go now, maybe something is wrong?"
Now that Xu time has passed, most of the people have already rested at this time, so if you want to come to King Han, you won't let him in!
Bai Keqi looked at the sky outside, and said: "It's because I didn't think carefully, let's go tomorrow, and I will go to see the prince tomorrow morning!"
……
The next day, when Zhu Song had just had breakfast, Han Qingshan came to report, and the county magistrate Bai Keqi came to see him.
"Qingshan, what is this king saying? There is no need to deliberately interrogate those people yesterday. Their masters will naturally come out with that first." Zhu Song stretched his waist and laughed.
"My lord, do you want to see him?" Han Qingshan asked.
