Qin Chong stood on the side of the road, hesitating whether to skip class or not.

Tongzhou sent people to investigate the case, and the first person to be interrogated must be Qiu Min. If Qiu Min recants his confession, it is very likely that the Qin family will be implicated. Once the horse theft is involved, the Qin family will be finished. Qin Zhong is at this moment

, the only way that can be thought of, or rather not a way, is to shut up Qiu Min.

As long as Qiu Min keeps his mouth shut, no one else can threaten the Qin family. As for Tongzhou Tongpan Li Tongwen, his purpose is revenge. No matter how he fights with Dali County and Shayuan Supervisor, it has nothing to do with the Qin family.

The more Qin Chong thought about it, the more urgent he felt, and he no longer had the intention to rush to the academy. However, Master Fan specifically asked him to enroll in school today to attend lectures. It was really unreasonable for him to go against his teacher's instructions in the blink of an eye. I'm afraid no teacher would like a disobedient student.

.It is unbelievable that the opportunity to become a disciple is gone.

After much hesitation, he decided to go to the academy. In his heart, Qin Chong had a trace of luck and wanted the best of both worlds. While rushing to the academy, he thought about possible ways. It was not easy to shut up Qiu Min. First of all,

You have to be able to enter the cell, and you have to be able to see Qiu Min.

As for what to do after seeing him? Qin Zhong couldn't think clearly at the moment. However, what is certain is that Qiu Min, who is already destined to die, will not mind a few more support. Or, if someone gives him hope of survival, he will definitely

He will hold on tightly. Whatever he is told, he will say, as long as he can survive.

This is the variable Qiu Min that worries Qin Zhong the most.

Kankan walked to the intersection of the military camp, and saw a group of cavalry coming from the west. When they got close, they turned sharply, drew a beautiful arc, and rushed towards the gate of the military camp. The knights on the horse were tall and tall, each with a sword on their shoulder.

They look like they are in the military. But these people are dressed like ordinary people.

This is the intersection of Sancha, with Dali County to the west, Shayuan Prison to the east, and the Xiaoqi camp to the south. Qin Zhong looked at the cavalry passing by, but showed a puzzled look. He was very sure that he had not seen it.

I have passed this group of people before, but they feel inexplicably familiar, and there is always a sense of deja vu.

About half an hour later, Qin Zhong and his two men arrived at the city gate. However, something was special today. There were soldiers standing on both sides of the city gate, armed with guns and knives. They were heavily guarded. A large group of people were blocked at the city gate, and the march was very slow.

"What happened?" Qin Xiao stepped on his feet and looked towards the city gate.

“It’s so early in the morning, you’re only allowed in but not allowed out, and you don’t know what you’re going to do.” A passerby complained.

"You must also check when entering the city. If there are no roads, you are not allowed to enter."

"If you delay any longer, the vegetables will wilt when the sun comes out."

...

It was still early in the day, and it was not yet midnight. Most of the people entering the city were traders and vegetable farmers, coming with carts and carrying loads, looking for a day's livelihood. At this time, they were blocked here, and there were complaints one after another, but there was nothing they could do.

Qin Zhong couldn't wait long, so he used his height and strength to push through the crowd and squeeze towards the city gate. Qin Xiao, who was thin and thin, grabbed Qin Zhong's lapel and followed closely behind him, constantly saying "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

The two of them squeezed to the city gate, sweating profusely.

Just as he was about to follow the people in front of him into the city, he was stopped by soldiers with guns drawn.

"Road." the soldier shouted.

"Yes, yes, yes." Qin Xiao stepped forward quickly and took out the road strips from his arms.

This so-called road strip is similar to an identity certificate, with place of origin, name, age, and appearance written on it. There is also a kind of road strip, which is used by merchants and has more detailed records. They need to travel across states and counties to sell goods. Where do they come from?

Wherever you go, there are instructions. When you arrive at a certain place, you have to collect taxes and sign a deposit.

There is a special case for scholars. As soon as the soldiers saw the Qin Xiao road, they immediately gave way to let people pass. The city gate became more crowded and noisy with the people who wanted to leave the city. The soldiers drove them away fiercely, but it had no effect at all.

"What happened in the city?" Qin Zhong asked the people walking together.

"I heard they were trying to catch thieves." Passers-by didn't know much either.

"Catch a thief?" What kind of thief are you catching? Such a big battle? You are allowed in but not allowed out.

"Langshan bandits." said an insider.

"Langshan bandits?" Qin Chong was stunned upon hearing this.

It suddenly dawned on him that he knew this. A few days ago, three Langshan bandits were captured. One of them was the leader of Langshan. He was the leader of all the gangsters in all counties in Tongzhou and even the surrounding Heyang, Pucheng, Chengcheng, and Yongji.

Jurisdiction. According to the confession of this leader, there are many people lurking in Langshan. In Shayuan Prison alone, there are more than 20 people lurking.

There are lurkers in every county in the same state and even in the surrounding areas. There are men and women with different identities.

It is still unknown what the Langshan bandits are going to do. However, such a huge latent plan is enough to shock the court. This shocking case cannot be handled by Shayuan Supervisor, nor can Tongzhou handle it.

Because the scope of involvement is too wide, he cannot be arrested hastily. Otherwise, he will be caught and missed. The only way is to submit the report to the Jingzhao Mansion, and the Jingzhao Mansion will coordinate the operation to capture the lurking Langshan bandit in one fell swoop.

Now it seems that the Jingzhao Mansion has completed its deployment and the arrest operation has begun.

Walking on the street, I saw that there were indeed many police officers in black, asking questions one by one. Dali County did not have so many police officers. They should have been transferred from other places to assist Dali County in the arrests.

Qin Zhong couldn't help but curl his lips when he understood that he was arresting the Langshan bandits. Yesterday, he was still in Dali County, and even went to Xiaodongzhuang with the county magistrate Chen Ping. Such a big thing was not revealed

There was just a little bit of news. I don’t know if the Dali government really didn’t know about this, or they were hiding it too well.

The academy is in the west city. Qin Zhong entered the city from the east gate. To get to the academy, he had to cross Dali County. Fortunately, Dali County is not big, and it usually doesn't take long to walk. But today, there are barriers at every intersection.

, all pedestrians coming and going were subject to interrogation. When Qin Zhong finally arrived at the academy, it was already past midnight.

"It's broken, it's broken, it's going to be late." Qin Xiao became nervous and stepped through the door quickly.

The Academy is at Mao hour, it is windy, rainy and thunderous. If you are late, you will be punished.

Not only Qin Xiao was nervous, but Qin Chong was also nervous. The key is that the academy's method of punishing people made Qin Zhong feel like a light on his back. Scholars were punished and would not be beaten or scolded. If they were late, they would stand outside the door and listen to the lecture.

It doesn't end until class is over, and everyone watches and gives advice. The feeling is even more uncomfortable than a beating.

As soon as they turned around the screen wall, the two brothers were stunned and suddenly froze in place.

Behind the screen wall is a square, half an acre in size, and is very flat. Usually, this is the place where the academy gathers, enough to accommodate hundreds of students. At this time, the square was full of people, but there was no sound. No matter whether it was the academy masters

, all the students who were still studying gathered in the square.

The most conspicuous among them was a group of black-clothed policemen, each holding a knife on his waist and looking solemn. They were scattered among the crowd, looking one by one, as if they were looking for someone. The students had angry expressions on their faces, but they did not show up.

Trying their best to suppress their anger, the Qin Chong brothers immediately became the focus of everyone's attention as soon as they came in.

In the academy, Qin Xiao and Qin Zhong were extremely poor in their studies. Both their teachers and classmates almost ignored their existence. Some teachers even did not know these two people at all. However, during the Dragon Boat Festival, Qin Zhong urinated.

Kuixing Tower's feat has long been famous in Dali County, and it can be said that no one knows about it.

What's more, Qin Zhong was arrested and imprisoned a few days ago, and his charges were even more messy.

Now in the academy, Qin Zhong's reputation has long been discredited. So at this moment, all the students in the square were a little surprised by Qin Zhong's sudden appearance, but most of them looked at him with disdain.

"Who are you?" A policeman glanced at the two of them and asked with a cold face.

"We are students of the academy." Qin Xiao replied.

"Let's go over there," the policeman said after pondering for a moment.

Qin Xiao pulled Qin Chong's sleeves and walked to one side of the square. Unexpectedly, as soon as Qin Chong took a step, he quickly stepped forward and stopped him. He pulled out half of his waist knife with a "cang clang" and shouted sternly, "Stop."

As soon as they saw the knife being pulled out, the surrounding police officers were immediately alarmed and surrounded him with a roar.

Several waist knives were unsheathed, locking Qin Zhong from front to back, left and right. Looking at this posture, as long as Qin Zhong made the slightest move, he would immediately launch an attack. The crowd exclaimed and retreated, frightened by the battle in front of them.

"What does this mean?" Qin Zhong remained on guard and frowned slightly.

"Who are you?" The policeman was very hostile and kept drawing his knife.

"Qin Zhong, a student of the academy." Qin Zhong said.

"Are you a student?" The policeman curled his lips and looked up and down, obviously not believing it.

Qin Chong is tall and strong. He looks like he has practiced martial arts all year round. How could he be a scholar? Although he is also wearing a scholar's shirt, his temperament is very different from that of scholars nowadays. In the policeman's perception, Scholars do not listen to what is going on outside the window, they only focus on reading the books of sages, they are not diligent, and they are generally weak.

Moreover, scholars are pretentious and are looked down upon by no one except scholars. In their eyes, martial arts men are simply crude, so how can they practice martial arts? Inferring from this, Qin Chong's burly image seems to be incompatible with scholars. Therefore, , which aroused the police officer's suspicion towards Qin Chong.

"Not bad." The agent's hostility and doubts made Qin Zhong very disgusted.

"Where do you live? Are there any roads?" the policeman asked coldly.

"Prisoner Shayuan." Qin Zhong said.

As soon as they heard the name Shayuan Supervisor, all the detectives were startled. Then, as if facing a formidable enemy, there was a sound of "canglanglang" and the sound of knives being drawn, and Qin Chong was surrounded. The policemen all knew that this time The incident of the Langshan Bandits was discovered from the Shayuan Supervisor. Moreover, the Shayuan Supervisors were all Xiang soldiers, so how could they be scholars?

One of the detectives, carrying a bow and arrow behind his back, was obviously different from the others. At this time, he walked over and stared at Qin Chong coldly. The resentment and murderous intent in his eyes were not hidden at all. If it were not in public, and Qin Zhongde's identity has not yet been determined, so he might have been killed long ago.

"Take him back to the Yamen and interrogate him strictly," shouted this man, who was obviously the leader of a group of police officers.

"You didn't even look at the road signs, so you concluded that I'm a Langshan bandit?"

Qin Zhong sneered and adjusted his posture slightly to guard against sudden attacks by these people. In fact, Qin Zhong was already extremely depressed. Who would have thought that even if he went to school, he would be suspected of being a Langshan bandit. The reason It's even simpler. He's physically strong and lives in Shayuan Prison. What's the logic of this?

Qin Zhong could clearly feel the murderous intent in the eyes of the policeman. But this murderous intent puzzled Qin Zhong. Even if they were real Langshan bandits and they could just capture them together, they wouldn't have to be so murderous, right? According to the veteran, , if you capture a living Langshan bandit, you can get a reward of hundreds of dollars, so everyone should be jealous.

"Wait a minute." Suddenly, Master Fan came out of the crowd and said.

Master Fan spoke up because he wanted to speak for Qin Zhong. No one in the academy except Master Liu could think of it. Not only the students whispered, but even several masters were surprised.

"May I ask Master what you have to say?" Master came forward, and the policeman did not dare to be disrespectful.

"Qin Zhong is my disciple." Master Fan said calmly.

"ah?"

"This is impossible."

"I must have heard wrong."

.........

As soon as Master Fan said these words, the entire academy was shocked.

"Qin Chong is also a disciple of Liu." Master Liu also stood up.

"OMG?"

"How can this be?"

.........
