After the crowd dispersed, there was nothing on the ground, even the blood stains were washed away with clean water.
After the later tourists walked around for a while, there was no longer any residual smell of blood.
Bad guy Zhang Jia stood on the crowded street and looked around. He tried hard to find any trace of Bucktooth Tiger and his group, but he couldn't find them.
For some reason, he suddenly felt that the bustling street in front of him was like the bloody mouth of a tiger, which seemed to be able to swallow him up in the next moment.
Bucktooth Tiger and his group of seven people just disappeared without a trace.
Several villagers were arrested and questioned, and the results were the same. They had never seen Bucktooth Tiger and his group at all.
The head of Jinchangfang is a young man with a fair appearance. It is said that he came from the army. Although it is suspicious, he is an official and cannot be questioned by him as a non-staff member of the county government.
As for Fang Zheng of Jinchangfang, he is a well-known softie. He has been slapped by Sunhu Cao for many years and has become famous in Chang'anfang. This kind of person has no courage to deal with the buck-toothed tiger.
"If nothing happens, you should leave early. Don't disturb the people in Jinchangfang doing business, and don't scare the people who come here."
Hearing what the young man in Jinchangfang said, Zhang Jia once again cast his suspicious eyes on Yun Chu.
The urban foxes and rats in Chang'an City are actually secretly supported by this group of unscrupulous people with very low wages. They cannot extort people openly and openly, so they have to find some rogues to do this and help them pay their low wages.
Mention the salary.
Therefore, before Buck-toothed Tiger could send money, they rushed over to support Buck-toothed Tiger.
Now, the Buck-toothed Tiger and his group had disappeared, which made Zhang Jia feel deeply frightened.
Yun Chu put his hand on Zhang Jia's shoulder and said: "I am currently studying in Taixue. If everything goes well next year, I will probably take the Ming Suan Exam. It's not that I can't take the Ming Jing exam, but I'm worried that after taking the Ming Jing exam, I will
My current official position, which is below the eighth rank, will be promoted too high and I will leave Chang'an.
It's good to calculate it clearly. After passing the exam, the positions will be arranged according to the ninth rank, and I happen to have an official position from the eighth rank, the government will definitely give priority to the ranking, so I will be at least an eighth rank official."
As Yun Chu spoke, he gently tapped Zhang Jia, the delinquent, on the shoulder. With each tap, Zhang Jia couldn't help but tremble.
"Wannian County is a Jing County. Today's Magistrate Lu is a sixth-rank official. I can't reach this position. The county magistrate is a seventh-rank official, and I can't reach it. The chief clerk is a seventh-rank official. If I jump to
You can get there by jumping around, but the most likely position is that of Wannian County Captain...it's not too big or too small, just right, and he is the immediate boss of you people."
Zhang Jia felt that his throat was sore that he coughed twice before whispering: "It's not that easy to become a county captain in Jingxian County."
Yun Chu patted Zhang Jia on the head and said: "I am the only old subordinate of Yanmenhou who came out of Qiuci alive. I am also the only one who built this giant phoenix and gave Magistrate Lu a chance for promotion. There are still many people.
A wealthy and distinguished family can express their filial piety to Queen Wende directly to the ears of heaven... You think, such a person who has military exploits, is an imperial scholar, and has passed the arithmetic exam, should he be considered a little
Is the eighth-grade county captain at a loss?"
Zhang Jia gritted his teeth and said, "Young Master, you don't know. Although bad people look vicious, their lives are actually extremely miserable. They are also bad people, but bad people from other states can live a prosperous life.
With the little money and food the delinquent people in the capital receive in a year, it is difficult to support themselves, let alone support their families.
I can only borrow some means to support my family.
The husband is a noble man, and a certain class would not dare to make a mistake, but a bad person is also a human being, and he also has a wife, children, and children..."
Yun Chu smiled and continued to pat Zhang Jia on the head and said: "Well, you'd better hope that I can become a county captain. Otherwise, if you do this, you will be punished sooner or later. When the time comes, you will be expelled from the army and even lose your head."
of."
Zhang Jia cupped his hands and said: "In this case, I will pretend that there has never been such a person as the buck-toothed tiger, let alone that it was Lang Jun who took action."
Yun Chu squinted at Zhang Jia and said, "Who told you that I killed Buck-toothed Tiger and the others? I have been patrolling the market all night tonight. I have never left for a step. I even dared to accuse me of killing people."
?”
Zhang Jia slapped himself in the mouth and said: "The villain said it wrong."
Yun Chu pointed at the gate and said, "Let's go then. Don't disturb the people doing business and supporting their families."
Zhang Jia cautiously and quickly left Jinchang Square with the two delinquents. As soon as he left the gate, he started running wildly, leaving the two delinquents following him confused and thinking that a dog was chasing them.
When I looked back, I realized that the young and overly young chief of Jinchangfang was standing under the giant phoenix watching them leave. Behind him was the deep and bustling street of Jinchangfang.
The three of them walked through the streets and alleys for an unknown distance before sitting down to rest at a wonton stall.
Facing the steaming wontons, Zhang Jia seemed to have no intention of doing this. After a long time, he exhaled and said, "Brother, I was scared to death."
A bad guy said in confusion: "Just a young man."
Zhang Jia shook his head and said: "The young man is the second best, but the looks in the eyes of the people watching are really terrifying.
Brother, if it weren't for my cleverness today, the three of us would have disappeared in Jinchangfang."
"Ah? Are they so brave?"
Zhang Jia smiled bitterly and said: "A person who has killed seven people does not care about killing three more."
"Should we report this matter to the county captain?"
Zhang Jia raised his hand and slapped the bad guy on the head and whispered: "Do you want people to know that the buck-toothed tiger has something to do with us bad guys?"
Seeing his two men shaking their heads in unison, Zhang Jia said: "Just pretend that you don't know about this. Doesn't Bucktooth Tiger have other brothers? Then pull out a troublemaker, avoid Jinchangfang, and continue
!
Damn it, without the twenty bucks that Buck-toothed Tiger pays monthly, our life would be really sad."
Tonight was destined not to be a good day, and Zhang Jia was not willing to follow other bad people around anymore, so he went home early.
In fact, he didn't really want to go home. As long as he came home, his old father would cough endlessly, his mother would talk to herself, his wife would always ask for money, and his four children would always be disobedient, leaving him with no peace for a moment.
.
After stepping into the house, before sitting down, his wife hurriedly dragged him to the bedroom. Zhang Jia looked at his wife's wrinkled face irritably and said angrily: "I'm upset, I don't want to sleep."
But the wife smiled and took out a bag of money from the wooden pillow and put it in Zhang Jia's hand.
"Where did it come from?"
"The man named Liu Yi from Jinchangfang sent it to him, saying he wanted to thank Mr. Lang for killing harm to the people. Husband, please tell me, how did you kill harm for the people, so that people asked for your clothes?"
stand up."
"You gave my clothes to Liu Yi?"
"Here you go, I got hundreds of dollars from you. What's a piece of tattered clothes worth? I also gave Liu Yi a dagger that you haven't used for a long time. This thing is a weapon, and it has an evil spirit."
, why is it not better than that ragged clothes? Husband, do you think what I did was right?"
Zhang Jia's mouth trembled for a long time before he pointed at his wife and shouted: "You ignorant, stupid woman!"
Now, Zhang Jia is very sure that all the people like Bucktooth Tiger are dead, and they died in Jinchangfang. As for the murderer, there is no doubt that it is Zhang Jia!
He won't be able to admit it when the time comes. There is no shortage of witnesses in Jinchangfang. Hundreds of them can still be found. There is also no shortage of blood clothes. His wife just provided them. As for the murder weapon, it must be the dagger.
As for his own witnesses, the wife who lives in hiding does not count, and the two bad guys brothers do not count. Moreover, these two people are not reliable at all. If he can receive money, then they should be able to do it too.
Just when Zhang Jia was at a loss, his two good brothers came to him in a hurry.
After listening to their stories, Zhang Jia punched the wall heavily and murmured: "This is too bullying, this is too bullying."
"Brother, what should we do?"
Zhang Jia slipped down along the wall, squatted on the ground and said helplessly: "They just left a way for us brothers to go."
"What way?"
"Destroy the corpse and eliminate all traces!"
The night market in Jinchangfang was nothing interesting to Yunchu. After dealing with the buck-toothed tiger matter, he took Naha home to sleep.
At dawn, Liu Yi, who had stayed up late continuously, came to the door like a ghost, and had breakfast at Yun's house.
After drinking two bowls of noodle soup, Liu Yi finally felt a little better. Seeing no one around, he said to Yun Chu: "Last night, Zhang Jia came to see me and asked me how many corpses I wanted from the Buck-toothed Tiger. Let me follow the instructions.
He was instructed in advance to show him where to bury the body, and then he and two bad guys dug up the body overnight, loaded it on an oxcart, and took it away.
I saw them throwing corpses in mass graves to feed wild animals with my own eyes, and then they came back. Chief, do you think this will happen again?"
Yun Chu thought for a moment and said, "Are there many wild animals in the mass graves?"
Liu Yidao: "Not only wild beasts, but also crows can eat up the corpses. Didn't you see that over the mass graves, the crows can cover the sky when they fly?"
Yun Chu nodded and said: "In that case, after three days, return the bloody clothes and the murder weapon to the three of them. They are all barely alive, so don't embarrass them too much."
Liu Yi hurriedly said: "Oh my God, I don't want to embarrass you. I don't dare to embarrass you."
"Then go back and have a good sleep. There will be a lot of things in the house in the future, and I have to rely more on you. Besides, I did a good job last night. I'll go to Mrs. Cui to get five guan of money to clean up your ruined house."
"
Liu Yi looked grateful and went to find Cui excitedly. Yun Chu slowly finished his breakfast. Seeing that Naha had no intention of getting up and not bothering her, he prepared to leave home to do some things.
.
He was very interested in what Zhang He once said about a man named Hu Dalu who sold lamp oil, because after testing the oil used in the giant sky lantern, he felt that this thing should be able to continue to be steamed again, and maybe it could be steamed.
Get what you want.
Before he could go out, Fei Jiuxian hurried back from outside. When he saw Yun Chu, he immediately said: "Lang Jun, as you expected, a bushel of corn has increased to four cents!"
