Chapter 36: The Temptation to Go Home

The Jinyiwei was originally a sharp blade for this Eastern Empire, but it was a dagger that had been hidden for a long time since hunting wolves and chasing deer and moving the capital to the north. However, this does not mean that it has become rusty.

Anyone or anything who is lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the weapon when it is unsheathed will be surprised by its sharpness and cold light. But now, a group of ignorant people who want to steal the sun have accidentally pulled out this long-lasting murderous weapon.

It's hard to hide the light after being hidden for thousands of years.

From the moment the city gate was closed, countless information flows began to flow into the city from a radius of hundreds of miles. From large restaurants on Long Street to small inn docks, official roads, and the Yangtze River, countless information was being collected and sorted.

Both eyes were staring at everything going around.

Jinyiwei's intelligence network has long been deeply rooted in the court and people of the Dawu Empire. The bosses and men in the teahouses, the vendors selling sesame cakes at the city gate, and the old people fishing in the lake are all their informants. Countless points.

, gathered into countless threads, and countless threads were woven into a huge network, firmly covering the vast territory of the empire. The huge intelligence network is running every moment, and countless information comes from all directions of the empire.

This is reported to the Jin Yiwei, and then finally fed back to the monarch, and decisions and instructions are made one by one in Donghuang. In this way, in this era of inconvenient transportation, the latest information on every inch of the land will always be grasped.

Changes and keeping this great empire in order.

Jin Yiwei has a large number of people among the three guards, but these are only the official staff. The number of people on the periphery, at the very end of the information network, is immeasurable.

Therefore, two hours after the major case occurred, all the information reported by eyewitnesses and the traffic and changes on the roads around Jinlin City had been handed over to Wei Wuxian.

The purpose of closing the city is not to intimidate or trap anyone, but to allow the transmitters in each intelligence network to transmit information most efficiently without any scruples. Because these people hiding in the darkness have not shown up for a long time, now

The situation is urgent, but if there are suddenly many people and horses on the street, and they move in plain sight, then these guardians in the darkness will definitely be in danger of being exposed. Shield the people, so that these dark beings can act unscrupulously.

This is the primary purpose of closing the city.

However, Jinlin City is divided into inner and outer cities and north and south cities. So far, the actual urban area has covered nearly ten times the land of the previous dynasty. It not only surrounds Xuanwu Lake, but also spans the north and south banks of the Yangtze River, and extends hundreds of miles to the south.

Outside... The trend of spreading. A city of this level, a densely populated area, and business exchanges have a foundation in the previous dynasty, and now it is even more developed and smooth. The regions have long been connected through several official roads.

, the communication is close, and there is no distinction between each other. But now, the city is suddenly closed without warning. The damage caused cannot be measured for the time being. If it is delayed for a few more days, the people will inevitably become resentful and turbulent and chaotic.

On the first night of the lockdown, many vendors living on the streets listened to the sound of footsteps and horse hooves all night long.

Therefore, Wei Wuxian cannot afford to delay,

After the city was closed on the first day, he sat in the yamen of the Jinlin Town Office and never left. Countless messages were collected at the Office of the Town Office on Zhuque Street. He didn't close his eyes all night until the next day. Wei Wuxian still looked sad.

Full face.

On the same day, six cases occurred in Beicheng District and Nancheng District, and the three cases in the north and the three in the south were not concentrated. According to the information, the last case occurred in the afternoon. These were all committed by the same gang.

There was no way that they could run out of the jurisdiction of Golden Scale City. But up to now, the information coming from all directions, whether it was the roads or the ships on the waterway, had not found any abnormalities.

Among the six cases, the people kidnapped in four were the family members of Jinlin officials, and the remaining two were family members of wealthy merchants in the city. Moreover, the places where the incidents occurred were chosen extremely cunningly, and there were almost no witnesses.

Apart from the fact that this group of people are here for me, there is no other valuable information.

Jin Yiwei's intelligence network is operating rapidly, but the information transmitted back is very little useful.

The big and small checkpoints leaving Jinlin's jurisdiction were all the same yesterday. Even if this group of people are good martial artists, no matter how good their Qinggong is, it is impossible for them to travel for a day with a group of flesh and blood. But if they take a carriage, the goal is huge, Jin Yiwei

It is impossible that there are no records and traces left in the intelligence network. Although we don’t know where they are hiding, they must not be far away. After roughly delineating a range on the map, the Jin Yiwei and the garrison in the city began to carry out carpet-based operations.

Investigation and search. Although this is a stupid and inefficient method, it is the most practical for important cases where even the Jinyiwei Intelligence Network cannot provide effective information.

But even so, after one night, countless Jin Yiwei knocked on the doors of countless people's homes with torches, but no useful information was obtained.

"Sir, you have been sitting all night, please have something to eat and rest for a while!" The Baihu who stayed behind in the Yamen personally brought breakfast on a tray and stood aside to advise him for a long time.

But Wei Wuxian, who was sitting on the chair, remained motionless. He eagerly listened to the news reported by the three subordinates of Hawkeye?

"Report from the outer city of Yuhuatai, but no one has been found yet!"

"Report from Beicheng Liuhe District, but no one has been found yet!"

"…………"

His eyes surged with eager anticipation again and again, and then calmed down again. Wei Wuxian said nothing, and kept clenching and unclenching his fists.

His chapped lips wriggled, and then he slowly said, "Yeah! Okay, I understand, brothers have worked hard. Let's go down first!"

After saying this, Wei Wuxian lost all strength in his waist. He no longer maintained his upright posture at all times, and leaned heavily on the chair. His eyes were dim, as if he had lost his soul, and he watched the three people leave.

Still staring at the door, motionless for a long time.

A person who is usually serious and energetic at all times is now looking haggard while sitting in the most familiar place. These changes were seen by hundreds of households nearby. With a sigh in his heart, he spoke again to persuade: "

Sir, you can't go on like this! You haven't had a drop of water since yesterday afternoon, and no matter how strong your body is, you can't stand it like this. Just eat your breakfast first."

"Lord Wen temporarily handed you and the Yamen over to me and asked me to protect the safety of this area. But such a big thing happened in just two days. The case has not been solved. How can I put food on the table?"

Baihu, who was carrying the tray, walked two more steps, bent down and said slowly, "Sir, please forgive me for speaking bluntly. You are already the only backbone of our town government department. If you fail again, what will happen to us?"

It’s really a mess. Sister-in-law, I’m still waiting for you to save me! Sir!”

Upon hearing the word sister-in-law, the look on Wei Wuxian's face changed slightly, and he hesitated to speak.

As soon as the hundred households saw that there was something going on, they hurriedly put the trays on the table, laid out the dishes, took out their chopsticks and served them. They did not forget to comfort them by saying, "Sir, you can eat with confidence. I will inform you as soon as there is any new news."

After much hesitation, Wei Wuxian finally picked up his chopsticks and started eating as soon as he thought of his wife and daughter.

………………

Wei Wuxian was very hungry here, and Xiao Yu'er, who had been busy all night, was also very hungry. Since such a big case happened yesterday afternoon, Wei Da Wei hurriedly recalled everyone and assigned tasks. After that, she also ran away.

In the evening, I didn't return to the inner city until dawn. After joining Jinyiwei for so long, this was the first time Xiao Yu'er encountered such a big case, and the first time he was tortured by endless overtime. Thanks to Mr. Bai's banquet yesterday afternoon

I had a full stomach to prevent myself from starving to death. Last night I knocked on countless wooden doors with the moon above my head and ran through hundreds of streets in the outer city. Now I am really tired, hungry and sleepy.

, I feel tired even if I move a finger.

Fortunately, I finished checking the area I was responsible for last night, so I can rest for a few hours.

However, even though the temptation to go home was already in front of her, she could no longer move forward, and she thought in her heart that it was really good to have a brother.

Because at this moment, she was obediently and softly crawling on the back of her second brother, tilting her cute little head, motionless. Her little mouth muttered a few words from time to time, "Ah! This little fish is starving to death! This little fish is going to starve to death!"

Damn thief, I’m afraid he wants to die! If I catch him, I will shoot him into a big hedgehog! Huh!”

Shen Qiye just shook his head when he heard his sister complaining softly on his back. His sister had a miserable childhood and suffered a lot when she grew up. However, that was the world before she met her two brothers. Now, she is just an ordinary person.

She's just a cute girl. She walked an unknown amount of distance that night, but it tortured her little feet to the point of pain.

However, for Shen Qiye, this is nothing. He has a pair of iron legs, and even if he ran all night, he is now carrying his sister back from the outer city, and he does not feel tired. After all, his sister's childhood can be said to be miserable.

, but my childhood was filled with darkness and tragedy. It was just a simple walk overnight. Compared with what I had encountered before, this was really nothing.

When I came back in the morning, I was afraid that my sister would catch a cold, so Shen Qiye took off his coat and put it on Xiaoyu's back. At this moment, his upper body was just a sleeveless shirt, and he didn't feel cold. At this moment, a large area of ​​his arms was wrapped around the firm

Her upturned little buttocks, her elastic and soft little buttocks, sent bursts of heat through the thin skirt. With strong hands, Shen Qiye lifted up her soft little sister, smiling and comforting her, "Don't worry, don't worry."

Urgent. Be good, Xiaoyuer, you'll be home soon. Second brother will buy you some roast chicken!"

"Hmm~~ No, I want to drink sweet wine, the sweet wine from Laosanjia! It's sweet, hot, warm, and always delicious!" The little eyes have been closed, and he is carrying it on his back, lost in thought.

Shen Qiye said in a confused voice, Zuijiao drooled and soaked Shen Qiye's shoulders. His consciousness was very sleepy, but he happened to pass by a shop selling early breakfast next to him. His little nose smelled the familiar fragrance, and he hurried. But his whole body was so tired that he could only

I can swing my calves and act coquettishly with my brother.

Because there was no time to change clothes, Xiao Yu'er was still wearing that beautiful little skirt. At this moment, she carried it on her back and kicked her calf, revealing a tender section of the bamboo shoot, which was as white as the most beautiful flower in the eastern sky. First, take in the fish-belly white color cast by the sun-drenched clouds. They are as tender as the white and tender new bamboo shoots that have just escaped from the soil and darkness in the early morning in the vegetable basket on the street. The leaves are still peeling off. It is really endearing. .

Shen Qiye patted her elastic little butt gently with his palm, just like coaxing a child. He said, "Okay, okay, okay, buy them all, buy them all, and the little fish can eat as much as he wants!"

After receiving the second brother's affirmative answer, Xiao Yu'er put down her last worry, "I am the second brother who is the best!"

After that, he fell into a deep sleep.
