Chapter two hundred and fifty
As night falls, the lights in Jiangxia City under the darkness are not like Jinling and Jiangling cities, even at night, the lights are still brightly lit. In Jiangxia City under the darkness, the streets are already sparsely populated, and large areas of darkness and occasional faint light emit from the windows connected to the next.
As for the pedestrians on the street, they can't see any pedestrians at first glance. When they stay on the street, they can only listen to the gusts of cold wind whistling by their ears.
Although Jiangxia City looks like this at night, if you look down from the sky above Jiangxia City, you can still see a bright light flashing in the center of Jiangxia City.
Although it is not big, it is better than bright and dazzling, and the Tao can be regarded as a striking sight.
And the place where the light shines is also the location of the county magistrate of Jiangxia City.
In other words, the place where Liang Ji lives and works on a daily basis is still brightly lit even when the surrounding houses are dark.
At this time, at the gate of the county magistrate's mansion, the fat Liang Ji was shaking steps, and his whole body was filled with drunkenness. He smiled and finally walked into the gate of the county magistrate's mansion with the help of the subordinates of the county magistrate's mansion.
"I want me to say, hehehe, we Jiangxia City do not need such a huge military expenditure? It's better to move some money into our own pocket. No matter what, we have worked diligently for Jiangxia City for so many years. It's time to burp and enjoy it. You guys, are we right?"
Liang Ji's head was light at this time. If it weren't for the support of four or five servants from the county magistrates around him, he would have thought that a dog would have been chewing mud.
The servants of the county magistrate's office, listening to the bold words of their master, could only hold a smile and echoed the arrogant words of their master.
But among these servants, there was a tall and thin man with a thin face. After hearing Liang Ji say this, his eyes narrowed slightly. Although he quickly smiled like other servants, his stagnation in that moment showed some strange behavior.
This change was naturally observed by Qi Wuhen, who was secretly monitoring this scene not far from the county magistrate's mansion. Qi Wuhen licked his lips, gently patted one hand and laughed suddenly, who was also hiding beside him, and smiled and pointed at the tall and thin servant with a low smile. He said, pointing at the tall and thin servant.
"Do you think this guy is a bit suspicious."
Suddenly he nodded with a laugh. Although he didn't see clearly, he had a hint of doubt about the tall and thin man.
"Preview again, don't alert the snake. After all, our mission this time is not to search for the spies hidden beside Jung Liang, but to investigate the dagger."
Suddenly, he laughed at the tall and thin man that Qi Wuhen identified, but in his heart, he had already made some judgment in his heart. However, due to the white-faced scholar's words, he still advised Qi Wuhen to endure this curiosity for the time being.
Maybe the white-faced scholar had also observed the strangeness of the tall and thin man. If the two of them made a rash decision, wouldn’t they be trying to disrupt the white-faced scholar’s original plan?
It's better to be safer. Regarding the tall and thin man, you can wait until the next time you talk to the white-faced scholar. Now, the two of them should first focus on the investigation task of the dagger.
"You are right, then, look, do you think that the reason why Liang Ji has been lingering in the fireworks and willow alleys these days has different plans from time to time? Now, I don't have a accurate number anyway. If I just look at this, I'm still a little far away from it. I dare not make a conclusion. It's too hasty."
Qi Wuhen frowned. In the words that the white-faced scholar said before, he also made some opinions and suspicions about Liang Ji's been lingering in the Fireworks Alley for a while, which naturally attracted his attention.
Liang Ji's files were backed up in their Jinyiwei archives library. He also made a special trip to the archives library before heading north and retrieved Liang Ji's files and temporarily looked through the personal deeds about Liang Ji. Therefore, Qi Wuhen was still surprised that Liang Ji would do such an addiction to the gentle land.
Because according to the records in the archives, Liang Ji never mentioned that he liked or had been to such places. Before that, Liang Ji was a guy who didn't drink much.
Integrity and justice are what Liang Ji said about him in his archives. It is precisely because of these evaluations that the people of the Nanli Empire would allow him, a poor family from grassroots background, to take the position of such a critical position as the county magistrate of Jiangxia County, the northern gate of the Nanli Empire.
Liang Ji, who was a poor man who had been working hard for half his life to climb to the position of county magistrate, suddenly turned into a decadent fat man who was addicted to the gentle land.
If you really want to say that there is no special reason, Qi Wuhen doesn't believe it, but he will never make a silly judgment and make a rash judgment.
So his decision was to observe what kind of person Liang Ji was like before making a judgment, but now it seems that he still can't see any of them.
So, at this time, Qi Wuhen still needs a while to observe Liang Ji and others' opinions about Liang Ji, and suddenly laugh,
That's exactly the candidate.
Suddenly he smiled and pursed his lips. His eyes were slightly frozen at this moment and looked at Liang Ji very well.
"I can't see anything strange about this guy, but I always feel that Liang Ji will never be that simple. He must be hiding something unknown."
The words that suddenly laughed were due to the fact that they supervised all officials in the Jinshi Department. Therefore, for Liang Ji, the Jinshi Department had some archives, but this so-called archives were not as detailed as the Jinyiwei's archives.
Although it is not very detailed, I can still confirm that Liang Ji, the governor of Jiangxia County, will definitely not be just such a guy who is addicted to beauty and wine. He will definitely not be so simple.
This is a breath of conspiracy.
Suddenly, when this thought appeared in his heart, he couldn't help but shivered, and then subconsciously turned his head to look at Qi Wuhen, who was just looking at him at this time.
The two of them met just like that, looking at each other, Qi Wuhen nodded and said
"Since that's the case, then let's observe it a little longer. After a while, we sneak into the county magistrate's office from the side door to wait for an opportunity to investigate to see if we can find some clues that the white-faced scholar did not notice that day."
Now it seems that the two of them can only deal with each other.
Anyway, the white-faced scholar told them that the matter of investigating the evil dagger, which was not much related to Liang Ji now, and if Qi Wuhen’s guess was correct.
The white-faced scholar should be near them now, secretly monitoring the observer Liang Ji's every move now.
However, the white-faced scholar's cultivation is far greater than that of them, so they just didn't discover and sense the white-faced scholar's aura.
Qi Wuhen sighed inexplicably, which attracted the attention of a sudden laugh.
However, just as I suddenly laughed and looked at Qi Wuhen with some inquisitive eyes, something happened at this time at the gate of the county magistrate's mansion.
For some reason, Liang Ji threw away the servants of the county magistrate who were supporting him, and ran to a pillar alone, supporting the pillar with one hand, while he was vomiting there, and Liang Ji was still muttering something in his mouth.
"This, this, hahahaha, this thing is so wonderful, so wonderful, it's really amazing."
Because of the distance, Qi Wuhen and the others only heard such scattered fragments. Through these scattered words, Qi Wuhen and the others could not detect and infer what they calculated from them.
But what is certain is that something is wrong with Liang Ji.
Now, I didn't see the tall and thin man taking out a dagger from his arms with a smile, stabbing several times one after another, and stabbing several servants of the county magistrates who were not prepared beside him into his heart.
This is a method of killing one blow.
Suddenly, his eyebrows frowned in an instant. This technique was a bit too skillful. Although it was a bit far away, it did not prevent him from observing that the tall and thin man's technique of using a dagger was a bit unreasonable.
Even if this technique is an entry-level foundation in both Jinyiwei and Jinshi, it is still incredible if it appears outside.
I believe that Qi Wuhen, I should have seen this at this time.
Suddenly, he took a deep breath, and he resisted the desire to take action. At this moment, he and Qi Wuhen both endured the impulse in their hearts, but continued to stay in place patiently without taking action. They were all waiting, waiting for the tall and thin man to take action next, waiting for the tall and thin man to do something.
Qi Wuhen licked his lips excitedly, his whole body trembled, his palm was already pressed on the hilt of his waist, and his legs were twisted slightly, ready to rush out at any time and fight the tall and thin man.
Although it was said that the tall and thin man's dagger could not tell what his cultivation level was, this bloodthirsty feeling had already caused Qi Wuhen's heart to be silent for a long time to awaken, and he might have suddenly felt it. He slowly exuded a series of horrifying murderous intents from around Qi Wuhen's body.
This destructive intention is not very obvious, but it is enough to make Sudden Laugh raise a little cautious.
Is this guy a devil?
Are you excited to see someone killing someone?
It's so damn, this guy can't even put some things into the world like a livestock.
And just a little short distance from these two people, the white-faced scholar was standing on the eaves with his junior brother, a man in white robe, quietly observing all this.
The white-faced scholar said calmly
"Why are you here?"
"Senior brother, I think the thing you need to care about now is not why I appear here, but Liang Ji's safety."
The man in white robe smiled contemptuously and did not answer the white-faced scholar's questions. At this time, his eyes were also paying attention to the every move of the county magistrate's office.
After hearing this, the white-faced scholar's eyes also thumped for a while. He closed his eyes as if he was about this moment.
The tall and thin man behind Liang Ji who was holding the dagger step by step didn't care.
At this moment, at the gate of the county magistrate's office, the bodies of the county magistrate's servants fell on all sides, and the tall and thin man showed a hideous smile. The dagger in his hand was still dripping blood. He walked quietly towards Liang Ji, who was still vomiting step by step.
And what about Liang Ji?
He seemed to have not noticed the sound behind him.
"Aren't we going to take action yet?"
The man in white robe said this casually, and his eyes glanced at the white-faced scholar, not knowing what he meant when he said this.
"That guy won't attack Liang Ji."
The white-faced scholar's eyes were still closed, and there was no sign of opening them. He was now like he was out of the way, and he had no intention of caring about the dangers that could happen at any time behind Liang Ji.
Step by step, the tall and thin man was getting closer and closer to Liang Ji. When he was about to get closer to Liang Ji, he had already raised the palm holding the dagger. He grinned and the hideous smile looked a little scary at this time, but there was also a sense of indescribable funnyness.
"Senior brother, that guy is about to start."
The man in the white robe no longer had the lightness he had before. His expression gradually became serious. Even one palm gathered some internal force at this time, just like, it was like he was about to take action in the next second.
A very strange thing is that the white-faced scholar, a person who needs to be monitored and protected Liang Ji, did not act at all about the danger Liang Ji is about to face now, nor did he show any nervous expression.
But on the other hand, the man in the white robe, who seemed to have no connection with this matter, had a look of tension at this time?
It seems that the man in white robe is also very concerned about Liang Ji's life and death?
Very strange, really strange.
The man in white robe who was born in a scholar had no position to worry about Liang Ji's safety, but now he began to be nervous.
Immediately afterwards, the next second, when the dagger was only three inches away from Liang Ji's back, the master man stopped. The dagger just stayed in mid-air, only three inches away from Liang Ji's heart.
After a while, there was no movement. The next second, the tall and thin man took two steps back. While he was stepping back, he also wiped the dagger in his hand and put it back in his arms.
It was his move that made the man in the white robe relieved. He also shook his wrist and dispersed the internal force gathered in his hand, without any fluctuations in his internal force.
At the same time, the white-faced scholar opened his eyes and a subtle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Not long after this smile appeared, the white-faced scholar's mouth turned back to its original state.
At the same time, Qi Wuhen and Suddenly Laughing also breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, they were also a little nervous at the moment just now.
After all, the two little guys were just thinking about coming to the county magistrate's mansion to see if they could find any clues about the evil dagger. Unexpectedly, they encountered such a thing. The kind of life that Liang Ji's life could be dead at any time may happen on the spot. The hearts of the two little guys were almost unable to bear it.
Although Qi Wuhen was very excited, he was still very panicked from the bottom of his heart. The tall and thin man really would attack Liang Ji.
Liang Ji is very important at this critical moment now.
Even after this incident and the critical moment, as long as the war is not over and the war does not stop, Liang Ji will be a guy who plays an important role in this layout as long as he sits in the position of the county magistrate of Jiangxia County.
"You seem to know that guy won't really attack Liang Ji?"
The man in white robe turned around and looked at the white-faced scholar with a cold face. After the tall and thin man put away the dagger, he saw that his senior brother, the white-faced scholar, had no changes in his expression. He could not help but feel palpitations in his heart.
However, the white-faced scholar sneered, and he sighed with a sarcastic meaning and said.
"You are still too impulsive. What is hidden after you don't see the false reality is the reality."
This sentence is very unpredictable. Similarly, the man in white robe naturally did not understand what the Baimeng Scholar wanted to express.
"Hahaha, you, you can."
The man in white robe snorted coldly. After saying this, he lost the interest of staying here. He turned around and jumped, used his light skills, and quickly left here.
Not long after, only the white-faced scholar was left on the eaves. Looking at the bright moon in the sky, a little lonely figure said with a self-deprecating look.
