Chapter 2

Wang Fan was tied up with a hemp rope and used a wooden stick to carry it on his shoulders by two good villagers.

The tavern owner was also tied with his hands tied by a rope, walking in front of the crowd, looking bitter.

A group of people headed for Baihu County in a mighty manner.

Not long after I walked, a dirt city appeared in front of me. There were three big characters written in seal script on the city gate: Baihu County.

There is no airtight wall in the world, and news travels faster than the crowd. At this moment, people are already gathered in front of the city gate.

There are large households in the county town, small officials and runners in the county government, and there are crowds of people who are very entertaining.

"Master, Baihu County is ahead." Ma Qianli pointed to the distance.

Li Xing was still a little tired. He looked away and saw the crowds of people were also looking at this place.

"Come on, change your clothes with me."

Ma Qianli opened his bag and put on his official robe, boots and hat with Li Xing.

Five hundred taels of silver, in addition to buying a county magistrate's official position, it also has a set of official uniforms, official credentials, and imperial edicts covered with the imperial seal.

In other words, this deal is not too much of a loss.

Li Xing was dressed neatly, and a majestic young man appeared in the crowd's sight. He was more than eight feet tall, with long hands and long legs, beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and his eyes were shining, with stars in his eyes.

But after all, I am still young, and my childishness between the corners of my eyebrows and eyes has not faded.

A full of scholarly spirit and a beautiful article.

A little handsome.

"That's the newly appointed county magistrate?"

"I heard that he grabbed a murderer with a knife with his bare hands."

"Damn, so fierce!"

"We Baihu County have already come to eight county magistrates. They are all bastards, beasts, and beasts..."

"It looks like this county magistrate is a bit unusual."

"Where are people, where are people?"

At this time, a white-haired old man walked out of the city, leaning on a crutch in his hand, and was supported by a group of strong men. The strong man was holding a wooden stick and an iron chisel in his hand, showing his ferocious appearance.

The crowd automatically dispersed a passage, and the old man walked to Li Xing. When he saw Wang Fan tied up in large numbers, he opened his eyes wide open and his eyes were covered with bloodshot.

"Okay, okay!"

The old man pointed at Wang Fan, his fingers trembling: "You dare to come back."

Suddenly, the old man's body was stiff, foamed at the mouth, and fell down with a thud.

"Master Zhou, Master Zhou..."

The crowd panicked and rescued, pinching the people with his hands, and the old man woke up slowly.

Li Xing looked at this scene in surprise, and listened to the discussions of the people around him, and then he realized that the old man was named Zhou Zheng, a wealthy family in the city. The victim was Zhou Zheng's son-in-law's family in the past ten years.

Zhou Zheng woke up slowly and knelt down at Li Xing with a thud: "Master Qingtian, the little girl has died for ten years. I have only obtained the real murderer today. Only in the nine springs can the little girl close her eyes. Thank you, Master Qingtian."

"Master Qingtian."

As Zhou Zheng came over, the young and strong man also knelt down. The crowd was a little stunned, and he also knelt down subconsciously, and shouted at Master Qingtian.

"Get up and talk."

Li Xing settled the official hat and waved his hand at the crowd.

Zhou Zheng was helped up and cried so hard that he wiped his tears with a silk handkerchief, waved his hand, and a follower brought two boxes.

"Thank you, sir, for the little girl to die and keep her eyes closed, and I have to settle a matter of worry. sir, sir, have worked hard all the way, there are hundreds of taels of silver and ten pieces of brocade here to express my feelings."

"Ai……"

Li Xing waved his hand and said, "It is a matter of catching the thief. I have received it. Take the gift back."

Ma Qianli kept winking with Li Xing. After buying this official, and with the expenses on the road, the two of them had a cleaner pocket than their faces.

Li Xing, the county magistrate, bought an official to make money. This is what everyone understands.

Seeing that Li Xing had not understood his meaning, Ma Qianli took a quick step and said, "I have accepted it for you."

We have never seen such a county magistrate. There is no county magistrate in the world who does not accept gifts. The crowd fell down again and shouted at Master Qingtian.

"Get up."

Li Xing waved his hand and said to everyone: "As an official, I should ensure safety in the area. I will only do three things as the county magistrate..."

Li Xing raised three fingers and looked at the crowd of people kneeling down in front of him. Suddenly, he felt a little energetic. He reached out and waved hard in the air, and said loudly:

"Catch people, arrest people, arrest people!"

There were still many people watching the excitement around. When they heard this, they raised their heads almost at the same time and looked at Li Xing with their eyes.

Baihu County is not far from the capital. Although it is considered to be at the foot of the emperor, due to its special geographical location, it has almost become a scattered area.

Desperate, bandits, barbarians... Some people committed murders and ran here to survive incognito.

Now that Li Xing has not entered the city, he is thinking about arresting people.

Who to catch?

He can finish the capture, he has the ability.

Several gazes in the crowd looked at Li Xing, and they became obviously malicious.

Li Xing did not notice this, and was immersed in the spirit of the momentum. He waved his hand and spit out two words: "Enter the city!"

Baihu County is not big, and it has not been long since we arrived at the county government office.

Half a year has passed since the previous county magistrate died unexpectedly. In the past six months, the county magistrate's position has been empty, and there are chief inspector Feng Tianlei for all matters in Baihu County.

As soon as Li Xing took office, he sat in the lobby of the county government office and opened a trial.

"Take a prisoner!"

Wang Fan was tied to the lobby. At this moment, the county government was full of people. They all wanted to see how the county magistrate would be tried on the first day.

"Take a plaintiff."

Zhou Zheng walked to the lobby with a crutch and was supported by someone. When he saw Wang Fan, he was furious and almost fainted again.

Li Xing waved his hand and said, "Come on a chair with the old man. Old man, don't worry, let's talk about it slowly."

Zhou Zheng wiped his tears and cried, "I'm a sin."

This incident shocked Baihu County ten years ago and many people have heard of it, but this is the first time Li Xing has heard of it.

It turned out that the Zhou family was a big family in the city, with lots of fertile land outside the city, and there were also many businesses in the city. Zhou Zheng and Zhou were kind and generous, and were righteous. He was also considered the number one figure in Baihu County.

That year, heavy snow fell. Zhou Zheng picked up a person on the side of the road and fell into the snow. He almost died of cold and starvation.

Zhou Zheng picked him up at home, and the man was Wang Fan.

Wang Fan has an ordinary appearance, is usually taciturn and only knows how to work. This personality is very appreciated by Mr. Zhou. Some housework is also liked to be handled by him.

Zhou Zheng has eight sons under his knees, known as the Bahu of Zhou family, and has only one young daughter named Zhou Shuran. He is regarded as the pearl in his hand by Zhou Zheng.

Zhou Shuran married to a family named Cui outside the city. Zhou Zheng often sent some clothes and drinks, and all these things were left to Wang Fan.

Speaking of this, Zhou Zheng was already crying and said, "I have always regarded this dog thief as his adopted son, and my little daughter regards him as his brother. Unexpectedly, the dog thief had already become slutty. The snow on that day, the mountain was blocked, so the little girl kept him at home. The dog thief had become slutty in the middle of the night. Because he was not allowed to commit traitor, he killed his son-in-law and his family of six. My grandson was only two years old that year!"

Someone among the onlookers knew about this. When he heard Zhou Zheng repeat it again, he felt heartbroken and his eyes were filled with anger when he looked at Wang Fan.

"There are such people who have lost their conscience in the world."

Li Xing looked at Wang Fan and shouted sternly: "Wang Fan, what do you have to say?"

"Yes, I killed people. It's been ten years, and I know that there will be such a day sooner or later."

Wang Fan raised his head, already in a gesture of accepting his fate: "But, I still have one more question?"

"Oh, what's the problem?"

"How did you recognize me? I have never seen you. Compared to ten years ago, my appearance is different. Even my acquaintances can't recognize me. Why did you recognize me at a glance?"

Li Xing blinked and thought to himself, I didn't expect such a big fish to be blown up.

He cleared his throat and smiled mysteriously: "The net of law is vast and sparse but not leaked. This is exactly what the clear blue sky cannot be deceived. Who has been spared from ancient times?"
