Chapter 7 Night Detective Official Mansion
Seeing that the incident had calmed down, Shen Xingliu sat aside with her and whispered: "I originally thought this was just an accident, but now I see there are many doubts about it."
"Have you thought of something?" Tang Xuanxuan said as she watched Mother Xiaolu take the initiative to take care of Pang Junde.
"This is just a conjecture. First of all, the medicinal materials you wrote about are very common. Why are there no pharmacies in the city?"
"Are you talking about these drug stores? They know that my prescriptions can cure diseases, so they refuse to sell them. Then they will have no money to make?"
Shen Xingliu nodded thoughtfully and said: "Secondly, as soon as Lao Pang and the others got the medicine, they were inspected by the government. As I said before, it must be a collusion between government and businessmen."
Tang Xuanxuan suddenly understood and nodded: "Is there any more?"
"Do you still remember the Shuangyue Sect?" Shen Xingliu took out the talisman.
Tang Xuanxuan took it and sniffed: "This is indeed just an ordinary talisman paper. The cinnabar on it can indeed calm the mind and help sleep, but it can't repel insects."
"So, I suspect that there are three parties involved in playing chess." Shen Xingliu rubbed his brows and said that the incident was no longer something he could control alone.
He waved Lao Pang over and whispered: "Take my gold medal and go to the governor of this state and ask him to quickly bring his troops to support."
Pang Junde quietly took the gold medal, turned to Xiaolu's mother, and said, "I'm going out to do some errands and I'll be back soon."
"What do you think of them two?" Shen Xingliu saw Pang Junde and said in a low voice, not that he didn't care about her.
Tang Xuanxuan watched the two of them chatting, and then Pang Junde left.
"I see something interesting," she said.
Pang Junde returned to the willow tree, unloaded the horses from the carriage, and headed straight out of the city.
Night fell quietly, after the two had dinner.
He said to Tang Xuanxuan: "If you protect yourself, you'd better set up more agencies. I'll go to the government to steal medicinal materials. If you encounter evil people, just activate the agencies and I'll be responsible for killing or injuring them."
Then he took a few men and quietly left the ruined temple. When the men heard that they were going to steal medicinal materials, they took him all the way to the government office.
"I'll go in and take a look later. You guys wait for me outside the backyard. I'll give you a code. Be careful not to get hit." Shen Xingliu looked at the government office under the night, as if there was a foul smell in it, and said, "Look
As soon as you get the medicinal materials, carry them back to the ruined temple. Don't worry about me."
"Hero, please protect yourself, we will wait for you in the backyard first." The men responded, hunched over and went to the backyard.
Shen Xingliu crossed his arms to his chest, and the black knife in his hand was trembling slightly. Is this the first time it has done this, so it is so excited?
Shen Xingliu whispered: "Be honest, you will suffer if you are discovered."
The black knife trembled twice in dissatisfaction, then fell silent.
He saw a group of people disappearing behind the official residence, stamping on the ground, and flying into the official residence without making any movement.
He searched up and down the house, leaping between the eaves like a civet cat.
Finally, he found the horses and carts used by Lao Pang and others to transport medicinal materials by a pool.
But the medicinal materials were missing.
He believed that the medicinal materials must be nearby, so when he went to a few houses near the carriage and lifted up the tiles, he saw three officials drinking.
"Tell me, why do you have to be so mysterious every time you meet them?"
"Who's to say for sure? You just need to take the money, why do you care about those bastards?" The bearded man said with a condensed look.
"By the way, if we robbed their medicinal materials, will they die?" asked a junior official who had just entered the industry.
"I won't die on your head, so why don't you just boil the water?" The bearded man held up the bowl with dissatisfaction and said, "No one is allowed to leave today without drinking."
When Shen Xingliu heard this, he initially confirmed his idea. It seemed that they were playing tricks on the water. Who else was he meeting mysteriously?
He was going to find out tonight. When the three people below were drunk and sleeping on the table, he jumped from the roof to the ground and picked up the three sacks beside the table.
The little official raised his head in a daze and saw the figure actually coming to steal the medicine, but he lay down without making a sound.
Shen Xingliu went over to pat him on the shoulder and jumped up onto the roof. It seemed that there was still a good person.
The little official only felt that something was going to change in his heart.
Shen Xingliu carried three sacks without feeling they were heavy. Just like before, he came to the backyard and let out a few cat meows.
He first threw the three sacks over the wall one after another, then turned back to the inner courtyard because he wanted to see what was going on.
When the men saw that something was coming, they carried it and ran towards the ruined temple.
The words were divided into two parts. Shen Xingliu, who had just thrown away the sack, groped around and finally found the mysterious person in a very inconspicuous small room.
I saw four people sitting on the four sides of the square table, surrounded by a dim oil lamp, arguing.
"Look at your little potential. You were so scared by a young boy that you wet your pants." The fat official said.
The fat shopkeeper was the one he had threatened the day before yesterday. He said: "If it weren't for me, the poison on those untouchables would have been removed."
"Wonderful, this medicine is just right." A man huddled in a black robe said, "Even I didn't expect that there is someone in this world who can cure my poison."
A woman wearing a moon-white gauze with a white gauze on her face said: "This time I, the Shuangyue Sect, have had a great time cooperating with the three of you, and the benefits will be distributed to you as agreed before. What you two will get is
Don’t you have to take it out too?”
The fat shopkeeper immediately gave up and slapped the table and shouted: "If I hadn't controlled all the drug stores in the city, you probably wouldn't have gotten such a big profit. I have to keep 70% of the property here."
"Grandma Chong, what do you think?" the woman said with a slight smile.
Grandma Chong slapped the prescription in her hand on the table, and said in a high-pitched voice like a female voice: "In this case, just go and die."
With a flick of his finger, a small insect flew out and entered the fat boss's mouth. Before the latter could make any move, he pinched his neck and died.
The fat on the face of the fat county magistrate trembled, and he waved his hands and said: "I will give everything here to you two, and I don't want even 10% of it."
The woman and Grandma Chong looked at each other and smiled, saying: "Happy cooperation!"
Grandma Chong looked at the reflection in the teacup and shouted: "Who?"
As he spoke, he threw the tea cup towards the roof.
"Wow!"
The two climbed onto the roof, and the shattered wooden beams and tiles fell down with a thunderous clatter.
The fat magistrate hid under the table and shouted, "There is an assassin."
Shen Xingliu was also unlucky to be discovered. He immediately greased the soles of his feet and ran out of the city like an arrow from a string.
The two of them saw that this person was very good at lightness skills, and they were eavesdropping here at some point. They couldn't let him run away!
"Chasing, I must keep this child."
The three of them headed out of the city one after another, leaving only the fat county magistrate and a group of officials behind.
"Don't worry about me, go to the ruined temple and kill everyone!" The fat county magistrate was extremely cruel and shouted.
"yes!"
When a group of officials saw what had happened, they wanted to eliminate the root cause quickly and held torches to kill the ruined temple in the north of the city.
In the ruined temple, Tang Xuanxuan quickly made three bags of medicinal materials into pills. Each person divided twelve pills, three pills a day, and half of the bag of medicinal materials was left.
She saw that everyone was hesitant and did not dare to eat.
He took out three pills and swallowed them. He used his internal energy to refine the pills. After a while, he spit out a mouthful of black blood. There were insects crawling in the black blood.
"Because you have no internal strength, you have to take it for three consecutive days before the deworming can be successful." She vomited black blood and felt unprecedentedly comfortable, and there was no more pain in her stomach.
Only then did everyone believe that there really were bugs and that the pills could really cure their illnesses.
"Girl, we have no way to repay you for your great kindness, so please accept my respects."
When the people saw Tang Xuanxuan taking insects for them, they were extremely grateful. She was simply a living Bodhisattva.
"Everyone, get up quickly, the ground is cold." Tang Xuanxuan helped the old woman up and said to everyone.
The man who wanted to beat her during the day was now kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly, saying: "I'm sorry, girl, I was blinded by lard. You go ahead and beat me or scold me."
"Didn't Xingliu tell you during the day? I can't blame you. Get up quickly." Tang Xuanxuan sighed: "I forgive you."
At this time, there was a harsh sound outside the temple.
"So, you are blaming me?" The fat county magistrate was surrounded by officials. He didn't know what masters there were in the temple. He shouted loudly: "People in the temple, listen, my officer was assassinated today. Quickly kill the thief."
The first bundle comes out, or everyone will die!"
"Damn, that's too much to bully. How could Miss Tang be handed over to a dog official like you?"
"That is, to protect Miss Tang."
"Fight them!"
"Folks, pick up the guy and get to him. That dog officer won't let us go."
The people are boiling and can no longer stand the oppression.
Tang Xuanxuan blocked everyone and said, "Don't get excited, everyone. They can't get in. We can solve the problem when Xingliu and the others come back."
The old woman just wanted to protect Tang Xuanxuan and said: "Miss Tang, it's not that I don't believe you, but it's hard for ordinary people to fight against the government."
"Don't worry, girl, we won't hand you over. It's enough to risk your life today."
"Get out of the way, girl."
Xiaolu and Xiaolu Niang squeezed through the crowd and shouted anxiously: "Everyone just believe Miss Tang, they will definitely find a way."
"What can we do? There is no way," the people cried and said, "Everyone here has a family member who has died of illness. The government doesn't care about us, and they conscript, plunder, and force countless people to death. What kind of world is this!"
Tang Xuanxuan saw that the development of the situation was beyond her expectation, and said tangledly: "I will tell everyone what happened now. Brother Pang Pang was originally a centurion in the army, and Xingliu was awarded a gold medal by the emperor. Now Brother Pang Pang is going to the governor.
Reinforcements are being brought in."
