Seeing that Mr. Zhang, the official's friend with a long and thin face and a goat's beard, was very respectful to him. At least on the surface, he did not have the arrogance of the Duke's confidant. The county magistrate suddenly smiled warmly and stepped forward to help Zhang.
Sir, he said kindly:
"Mr. Zhang is so polite. Mr. Wenbin's name has been heard in this county for a long time. I wonder why Mr. Wenbin is here?"
Zhang Wenbin said solemnly:
"I am here just because of the assassination of Zhao Mengshan."
The county magistrate expressed surprise:
"It was only a few hours after Zhao Mengshan was assassinated, but he came from the capital city of Yingzhou? Is it possible that he has the ability to predict things in advance?"
Mr. Zhang shook his head:
"The county magistrate was joking. A few days ago, I went to Yunya County to run errands for the Duke. I finished my work yesterday and was on my way back. Tonight, I was staying at the Shilipo Station at the county boundary, and I happened to meet two servants of the Zhao family.
I went to the post station to rest my horse and overheard the two men talking. I found out that Zhao Mengshan had been assassinated and he had come here overnight with the two servants of the Zhao family."
The county magistrate suddenly said:
"It turns out that Mr. Zhang just happened to meet the servant sent by the Zhao family to report to the city."
"That's right." Mr. Zhang said: "I wonder if the county magistrate can tell me about this. The county magistrate took out the love document written by himself and handed it to Mr. Zhang:
"Mr. Wenbin, please see that the truth and details about Zhao Mengshan's assassination are contained in this document."
"It's broken so quickly?"
Mr. Zhang was a little surprised. He took the document and quickly scanned it ten lines at a time. Seeing that the document had a decent reasoning about the details of Zhao Mengshan's assassination, he could not find any mistakes for a while.
However, as for the conclusion that the murderer was an assassin from the Blood Shadow Cult, Mr. Zhang didn't show any clue on his face, but he didn't agree with it in his heart.
The Blood Shadow Sect is being vigorously pursued by Mu Qingxue, and they already have too much time to take care of themselves. How can they have time to come to Changsheng County to kill people?
Furthermore, the Blood Shadow Sect has a very big plan.
With Mr. Zhang's understanding of the Blood Shadow Sect, he knows that with the Blood Shadow Sect's usual style of dealing with relatives and relatives of powerful families such as the Duke of Ying, they will only resort to corruption, inducement, and infiltration, and will never easily do so.
Take the assassination order targeting this group of people.
No matter how professional the assassin who assassinated Zhao Mengshan was, in Mr. Zhang's opinion, the murderer could not be the Blood Shadow Cultist.
However, he was deeply scheming and did not point out the "fallacy" of the county magistrate to his face whether it was intentional or unintentional. He only handed the document back to the county magistrate, holding his hands in admiration and praising:
"The county magistrate has some capable people. He actually found out the truth so quickly. I admire Zhang."
The county magistrate chuckled, twirled his beard and said:
"Mr. Zhang is too polite. However, the detectives in this county are indeed experienced in criminal justice. In the eyes of this county, they were completely confused. After several rounds of digging, they have found out the truth and found out the details, which made this county
Quite surprised too.
"Mr. Zhang, don't worry. As soon as the day breaks, the county will send out capable officers to submit the love document to the Supreme Lord. He will definitely ask the Supreme Lord to seek justice for Mr. Zhao."
Mr. Zhang kept his expression and expressed his thanks:
"In this case, I would like to thank the county magistrate on behalf of my Mrs. Zhao. I wonder where Mr. Zhao's body is now? Where is the assassination scene? I would like to take a look in person. If Mrs. Zhao asks, I might as well have something to say.
Please forgive me for taking the liberty of doing this."
The county magistrate said cheerfully:
"Sir, you're welcome. This matter is easy to discuss. Lao Zhao, Xiao Zhu, Xiao Shen, come here."
When Lao Zhao, Zhu Hu and Shen Lang came to their side, the county magistrate introduced Mr. Zhang:
"This is Zhao Junshan, an old catcher who has been serving as a public servant for more than ten years. He is experienced, sharp and very capable. It was he who worked hard to find out the details of Mr. Zhao's assassination.
"This is Zhu Hu, the youngest and most capable policeman in the county. He once followed Master Mu Qingxuemu of the Divine Catcher Hall to wipe out the Wangjiazhuang cult nest and made great achievements.
"This young man's name is Shen Lang. Despite his young age, he has written a letter personally recommended to talents in this county by the Mu people. He is diligent, alert, wise and courageous, and his future is limitless."
The county magistrate is really good at judging people!
Shen Lang praised the county magistrate in his heart: Although I have nothing to do when I go to work every day, wandering around the streets, and take leave at noon to go home and practice martial arts, but I am really diligent, alert, brave and resourceful. The yamen servant is here.
Mr. Zhang glanced at Shen Lang calmly, feeling a little guilty:
He was actually a talent recommended by Mu Qingxue himself?
Why did Mu Qingxue place people in a small place like Changsheng County? Hasn't Wangjiazhuang, which had colluded with the Blood Shadow Sect, been wiped out? She placed people because she suspected that there were still people in Changsheng County who had slipped through the net?
Or did she hear some rumors and specially put people in the Yamen to collect evidence of Zhao Mengshan's crime?
Just when he was speculating on Mu Qingxue's intention of sending Shen Lang to work in the county government, he heard the county magistrate again ordering Shen Lang and the others:
"You three, accompany Mr. Zhang to the place where Mr. Zhao was killed. Mr. Zhang only has questions, so there is no need to hide them. Just tell the truth."
So Zhang Wenbin put away his thoughts and went to the practice hall accompanied by Shen Lang and the others.
Along the way, neither Mr. Zhang paid attention to the detective Lao Zhao who worked hard to find out the details of Zhao Mengshan's assassination, nor the so-called youngest and most capable detective Zhu Hu.
The only thing he paid attention to was Shen Lang, who was installed by Mu Qingxue and was praised by the county magistrate as "both wise and courageous".
"He looks like he is no more than seventeen or eighteen years old. Although he has the spirit of a young man in his movements, he does not seem to have any martial arts skills? This figure and steps are full of flaws, and he is not much better than ordinary people... Mu Qing What’s Xue’an’s purpose of inserting such a young man who doesn’t know martial arts?”
Mr. Zhang has great martial arts skills and is a master of the fifth level. He has great hope of condensing "true energy" and advancing to the fourth level.
In normal times, he often runs errands for the Duke of Ying and has dealt with countless people in the world. He has extremely rich experience in the world.
With his cultivation, experience, and eyesight, he could easily tell at a glance that the young man Shen Lang didn't have much martial arts.
Even if you look at his body shape and listen to his breathing rhythm, you can tell that his body is quite strong, but without martial arts, there is no martial arts.
This can be seen at a glance from his flawless figure and gait when he walks.
"At most, I only know how to practice. I have developed a good physique, but I have not learned any clever killing moves. I don't know anything about Qinggong and Shenfa..."
I have to say that Mr. Zhang’s vision is really accurate.
Shen Lang really doesn't have any martial arts skills.
Although he is physically strong and has even reached the mid-eighth level, apart from the boxing skills for practicing strength, he has never practiced any killing moves with fists, feet or light kung fu. Running, dodging, leaping and leaping all rely on "talent". agile.
If he was asked to perform some kung fu, he would have no choice but to perform the thirteen moves over and over again, which are not suitable for actual combat.
Not to mention using a sword.
Except for the single decisive sword move, Shen Lang couldn't even perform several sword skills routines.
It can be said that even if Shen Lang holds the sword in his hand, as long as he does not activate his murderous intention and enters the state before the "White Rainbow Penetrating the Sun" attack, martial arts experts will directly make a conclusion just by looking at his body and gestures holding the sword.
:
This guy is a layman in swordsmanship, the kind who doesn't even have a basic foundation.
Anyway, in terms of martial arts, Mr. Zhang didn't think there was anything about Shen Lang worthy of Mu Qingxue's respect.
So, he is good at finding out information and knows how to collect intelligence?
While they were thinking about it, Shen Lang and the others had brought Mr. Zhang to the practice hall and asked him to go in and inspect the scene in person.
Mr. Zhang walked around the scene with his hands behind his back and an expressionless expression.
He carefully looked at Zhao Mengshan's unrestrained body, and carefully examined the big hole that was blasted on the floor. He also jumped down from the big hole and walked around in the underground secret room. When he came out, he already looked confident.
[Pick up a vote for the wise and wise Mr. Yingming County~!]
