At this moment, Chen Xuan heard shouts of murder coming from Dongyuan Street next door.
"Hurry, hurry over, we found the Taiping Sect's demon path."
A captain of the city guard immediately summoned soldiers to surround Dongyuan Street next door.
As for Chen Xuan and Liu Hansheng, they pretended not to have heard anything.
They are on patrol, and there is no need to listen to the orders of the city guard captain. The task they received is to guard the exit of this alley, so just guard the exit of this alley.
When the Taiping Cult Demon Path was discovered on Dongyuan Street, the patrol team of Dongyuan Street was naturally there to deal with it.
"Everyone, follow me to support the captain."
A quarter of an hour later, after the shouts of death on Dongyuan Street next door gradually became quieter, Sun Yuan came out and shouted.
Immediately, Chen Xuan and Liu Hansheng walked over slowly.
Dongyuan Street has been surrounded by officers and soldiers.
The Taiping Sect's demon path was blocked in Dongyuan Street. There were more than a dozen corpses on the snow, many of them had arrow feathers stuck on them, and the bright red blood dyed the snow red.
"Nowadays, aristocratic families control the world. Heroes from all over the country have carved out their own territories. Officials and aristocratic families only care about their own enjoyment and don't care about the life and death of the people. Why would you choose to serve such a court? Why don't you join us and work together to achieve great things."
"Only joining our Taiping Religion is the real way out."
"Overthrow the violent Jin Dynasty and establish a peaceful and prosperous age."
The leader of the Taiping Cult Demon Dao shouted loudly.
There was an arrow feather stuck in this man's chest, and the blood dyed the clothes on his chest red.
"Overthrow the violent Jin Dynasty and establish a peaceful and prosperous age."
"Overthrow the violent Jin Dynasty and establish a peaceful and prosperous age."
"..."
The other demons of the Taiping Sect also shouted loudly, with excited expressions and pious expressions on their faces.
"A bunch of demons are here to deceive people even when they are about to die. Please die."
Ling Ye held a machete in his hand and started to kill the Taiping Sect's demons, covered in blood.
"Captain Ling Ye is too hardworking. Is this because he has a grudge against the Taiping Religion?"
Someone whispered.
"Captain Ling Ye does not have any grudge against the Taiping Religion, but wants to use this meritorious service to climb up the ranks." Someone whispered: "Not long ago, the bandits attacked the city, and many people in the government died under the swords of the bandits. Now,
The government is hiring people, and it is a great opportunity to make achievements. As long as you make meritorious deeds, you can fill the vacancy and become a formal official."
"Climbing up on the bones of the Taiping Sect, even if he becomes an official official, I'm afraid he will become a thorn in the Taiping Sect's flesh and eyes. Once an uprising breaks out, someone will immediately use his head to sacrifice the flag."
"Captain Lingye is betting again. He is betting that the imperial court can suppress the rebels. If he wins the bet, he will rise to fame. If he loses, he will die."
"What the Taiping Cult said is correct. Today, the world is controlled by aristocratic families. It is difficult for ordinary people to rise to the sky. If they want to gamble, they must seize the opportunity. Many people don't even have the opportunity to gamble.
"
"Hush, be careful. If you said this before, it wouldn't be a big deal, but now you can't say it randomly. If these words get out, I'm afraid you will be regarded as a demon ally of the Taiping Sect."
"..."
While everyone was discussing, Ling Ye had already killed all the demons of the Taiping Sect.
"Check all the places in Dingtaofang. If you find anyone with a suspicious identity, take him away directly."
Ling Ye, covered in blood, walked over and said to the people on duty.
"yes!"
The people on patrol said in unison.
…
…
Two hours later.
The county government asked officers and soldiers to post notices in every square.
The patrol team discovered the Taiping Sect's demon path and killed twenty-three people in the street.
It is also written at the bottom of the list that anyone who discovers a Taiping Sect demon will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver if he reports it. However, if he fails to report the information and harbors a Taiping Sect demon, he will be regarded as an associate of the Taiping Sect and his family will be confiscated and his family will be exterminated.
After the notice was posted, Qingshui County began a city-wide search for suspicious foreigners.
Yongrenfang, Changsheng Gambling House.
"Big, big, big, big."
"Small, small, small, open small."
"Hahaha, it turned out to be a small one, so I'll pay for it."
"Fuck you, you opened six small hands in a row. I don't believe in this evil. I'll just bet on the big one."
"If you bet on the big one, I'll bet on the small one."
A group of gamblers gathered around the tables, with crowds of people and low and noisy voices.
Bang!
The door of Changsheng Gambling House is opened.
Chen Xuan and Liu Hansheng held the machetes at their waists and walked into the gambling house with the city guard officers.
"What's going on? Why are the officers and soldiers here?"
"Could it be that the owner of the gambling house committed something, and the officers and soldiers came to arrest him?"
"This is impossible. This Changsheng Gambling House is covered by the Black Tiger Hall. The brother-in-law of the leader of the Black Tiger Hall is a captain of the city guard. Even if something happens, he will say hello in advance. How come he comes to the Changsheng Gambling House to pick up people?
."
"..."
This sudden arrival of officers and soldiers immediately caused panic among the gamblers, who were whispering to each other and discussing whether this Changsheng Gambling House had committed some big case, so don't implicate yourself.
"Which one of you is the chief? Do you know whose place this is?" At this time, the supervisor of the gambling house came up with a group of big men with a straight face and said coldly: "You just broke in like this and affected the gambling house.
You can’t afford to lose your business.”
"Check each one carefully and don't miss anyone."
Chen Xuan scanned the entire audience and then ordered.
"yes!"
"Everyone stand up for me and tell me their names and addresses."
The city guard officers and soldiers immediately began to interrogate the gamblers in the gambling house.
"What are you doing?"
The director of the casino shouted angrily and led others to step forward to block him.
Seeing this, Liu Hansheng did not stop him and said directly: "We are on patrol and have been ordered to check the whole city for suspicious persons. You reacted so fiercely. Could it be that the Taiping Cult is hiding its evil ways?"
"It's okay if you don't let us investigate. We will take the people away immediately, but the situation here will be reported truthfully."
Chen Xuan said calmly.
"Nonsense, don't talk nonsense. How could our Changsheng Gambling House be hiding the Taiping Sect's evil ways?"
Hearing this, the gambling house manager's expression changed drastically and he immediately denied it.
The Wanzhou rebellion and the uprisings in the three counties of Yishui County all had the shadow of the Taiping Religion.
The imperial court had only one attitude toward the Taiping Cult's demonic ways, and that was to kill without mercy.
At this time, anyone who has even the slightest connection with the Taiping Religion will be doomed.
"Let them check."
The gambling house supervisor waved his hand and asked the people under him to step back.
"You two adults, please calm down. I was impulsive just now."
At this time, the gambling house supervisor stepped forward and quietly stuffed a roll of something into the hands of Chen Xuan and Liu Hansheng.
Chen Xuan lowered his head and scanned it. It was a roll of banknotes, at least five.
Each face value is twelve taels.
He nodded slightly and quickly stuffed the banknote into his pocket.
More than a dozen city guard officers and soldiers quickly searched Changsheng Gambling House inside and outside, and all the gamblers were interrogated. There were no suspicious outsiders.
"Walk!"
Chen Xuan waved his hand and led the people out of the gambling house.
