After the discussion was completed, Huang Donglai and the four of them immediately divided into two groups and started the operation.
On the first route, Lin Yuancheng is partnered with Fuzi; their mission is to go straight to the local county government overnight to "ask" the county magistrate for first-hand information about this large local fraud gang.
In the second route, Huang Donglai is partnered with Tyrell; what they want to do... is to fight back immediately, sneak into the Wuren Temple, and explore the opponent's true identity at night.
Seeing this, some people may ask, why didn't Huang Donglai go to the county government office on his own? Aren't they "harmony in the east and poison in the west" protected by royal guards, so they can "act cheaply" at the gate of the government office?
You have to think about it from another angle...
If the group of people Huang Donglai is dealing with now are people who have little to do with the local government, then if he goes to the county magistrate for help, he can indeed get the "easy way" treatment.
But what if this group of people had colluded with the Yamenmen children?
When Huang Dong came to the county government, wasn't it like asking the other party, "Can you help me deal with those accomplices who have given you a lot of benefits and have been protected by you?"
In that case, it's hard to say what the other party will do.
For example, I can just find an excuse to give you a delaying strategy, and then inform the gang of swindlers; or, in order to prevent myself from being dragged into the water, I secretly give orders to my subordinates to kill people as soon as they enter Wuren Temple.
Silence; it is even possible... there will be those who are more courageous and try to directly kill Huang Donglai, the person who raised the issue.
To sum up, under the premise of high suspicion but no evidence to prove that there is a problem with the local government, Huang Donglai revealed his identity and negotiated with the county magistrate normally, but it would make them passive.
Then it's better to... use abnormal methods to achieve your goals more efficiently.
Furthermore, the work at Wuren Temple is indeed more suitable for Huang Donglai and Tyrell, because the former is good at lightness and the latter is good at sneaking. Compared with the other two, they perform such night reconnaissance missions.
Has obvious advantages.
Here we have two flowers, one on each side.
Let’s talk about Kobayashi and Fudoko first...
The two of them followed the long queue of people and headed towards the town and county.
After passing the end of the team at the foot of the mountain, the road ahead suddenly became deserted. Fortunately, the bright moon was in the sky that night, and even if they had no lights in their hands, it would not prevent them from walking at night.
After walking for a while, they finally saw the shadow of the county seat on a slope.
At the other end is a bright moon and a low and low city.
Compared with the brightly lit and crowded scene at the entrance of Wuren Temple, the whole county in Hu County is actually dark and silent.
After a while, Lin Yuancheng and Fuzi entered the city. They didn't ask for directions and went straight to the city along the main road.
Remember, in ancient times, government offices were usually built in the center of the city as long as conditions allowed. This is called "choosing a neutral country." Unless the geographical environment of the county is special, then it will be based on the Feng Shui pattern.
Choose another address.
Therefore, it didn't take long for Kobayashi and Fudo to find the county government office.
The two of them didn't know how to knock on the door, so when they got to the door, they immediately got up and climbed over the courtyard wall, then walked towards the county prince's bedroom as if strolling in the courtyard.
Don't wonder how they know where the county magistrate's bedroom is. It's actually very simple... Just like the "choosing a neutral country" just mentioned, according to Feng Shui theory, this county government office also has "sitting north and facing south" and "two points on the central axis"
", "Front hall and back bed", "Left civil and right military" and a series of layout rules. Although this was not "common sense" that all ordinary people understood at that time, it was for people with a little bit of culture and Taoist priests.
, this bit of knowledge must be clear to the chest.
When the two of them arrived at the door of the county prince's bedroom, they opened the door and entered.
While Lin Yuancheng was lighting the oil lamp on the table, Fuzi had already arrived at the master's bed in three steps at a time.
The county magistrate of Hu County, whose surname is Fang Pan, is in his forties. When he was young, he was considered a talented person, but as he has been in officialdom for many years, his appearance has become more and more evil, and in the past ten years, he has been a bit middle-aged.
Fat.
At this time, Fang Pan was lying on the couch, sleeping soundly with his two concubines, who were nearly thirty years younger than him, in his arms.
The silk and satin on his body came from greed.
The concubine beside him came from greed.
Everything he eats and uses every day comes from greed.
So will he have trouble sleeping at night?
Not really.
Many stories tell us that when those rich and powerful evil people enjoy the material wealth they gained after committing evil deeds, they will have trouble sleeping and eating, and will be in panic all day long.
But in fact, it is just to comfort everyone...
Although there may be a small number of people like this, for the most part...their comfortable life is enough to relieve their inner pressure.
If a person really reflects and wonders every day whether everything he owns was obtained through some dirty means, it can only mean that his conscience is still intact, or that he still has enough respect for the law and morality.
But most evil people have no conscience and awe at all, and they have already justified their actions in their hearts.
Fang Pan is such an ordinary villain, a corrupt official who can be seen everywhere in Dashu, and the reason that allows him to live with peace of mind is also the kind of bad street - how many people in this officialdom are not corrupt?
"Huh?" Fang Pan woke up the moment he was grabbed by the collar.
As he murmured, his body, which weighed more than 180 kilograms, was completely lifted up and "thrown" out of the bed.
Of course, Fuzi didn't want to kill him, so the force of his hand was controlled. He just threw Fang Pan from the bed to the ground.
As for the two concubines, Fudozi has used methods to prevent them from waking up for the time being.
"Ah? You..." Fang Pan suddenly sat down on the cold ground. Fang Pan was completely stunned. Under the light that just turned on, he looked at the tall and strong Taoist priest in front of him, and he couldn't say anything for a moment.
The whole sentence is, "...who...is this?"
While Fuzi stared at Fang Pan with a condescending look, he reached out and dragged a stool over and slowly sat down.
"Don't scream." This was the first thing Fuzi said to Fang Pan.
Fang Pan seemed to be reminded by this sentence, and he immediately opened his voice and wanted to shout "Here comes someone".
But he had only pronounced half a syllable of the word "来", and a big hand was already firmly stuck on his mouth and nose like a facehugger, causing him to only make a very slight "emmm" sound.
"Aren't you disobedient?" Fuzi easily clamped Fang Pan's head with one hand, like grabbing a basketball, and looked at the latter and said leisurely, "I'll let you think about it again.
Just blink when you get through."
Fang Pan naturally "figured it out" quickly.
Just now, his mind was still confused, so he instinctively wanted to call for help, but now that his mind was a little clearer, he understood: Since the two people in front of me have the courage and ability to enter my bedroom and kidnap me late at night, then they can count me.
If I yell now, they can kill me and silence me before someone arrives.
"Uh-huh." A few seconds later, Fang Pan blinked violently and groaned with his covered mouth and nose.
Seeing this, Fuzi let him go.
After being freed, Fang Pan didn't try to scream again, but just started breathing heavily.
"I want to ask you something, how about you answer truthfully?" Fudongzi waited until his breathing calmed down, then continued.
"Okay...Okay." Fang Pan could only reply "Okay". As he spoke, he was already kneeling on the ground and sitting upright, like a student about to be trained.
"What's your name?" Fudozi asked.
"Fang Pan." Fang Pan replied.
"How long have you been the magistrate here?" Fudozi asked.
"It's been almost three years..." Fang Pan said.
"How long have you been colluding with the guys from Wurenji?" Fudozi asked.
After answering this, Fang Pan hesitated.
The other party didn't ask him "Have you colluded" at all, but directly asked "How long have you colluded?" There are two possibilities: the first is that the other party already knows the fact that he colluded with that group of people, and the second is a bluff.
.
If it is the first situation, Fang Pan should answer truthfully, otherwise it will anger the other party; but if it is the second situation, the other party does not confirm that Fang Pan is guilty and will only deceive him, then if he answers the truth
If you say so, it is tantamount to "confessing guilt" to someone who has been deceived.
"This Taoist priest... I wonder who you are?" As expected, Fang Pan chose not to answer, because the matter here was a bit big and he didn't want to admit it easily.
"Huh? Now you're asking me back. It seems like you have something up your sleeve." Who is Fudozi? He has lived for more than a hundred years, and Fang Pan only wants to fight with him?
"No, no, Taoist priest, Fang really doesn't know what you are talking about." Fang Pan still did not give up and continued to pretend, "Wuren Temple is a temple, and this is a yamen. What should I do to collude with them?"
?”
"What did you say?" Fuzi said, then turned his head slightly and glanced at Lin Yuancheng, who was standing beside him and remained silent.
Lin Yuancheng saw his look and immediately understood, so he said to Fang Pan: "As a parent official, do you know that Xiongfengshan and the monks in the temple deceived the people?"
When Fang Pan heard this, he turned to look at Lin Yuancheng, and decided to call him based on his appearance: "Young hero, I am wronged! Doesn't Mr. Xiong treat people's illnesses? What's the bluff?"
People'? I really don't know anything about it!"
"Oh? You really don't know?" Lin Yuancheng wanted to make a fool of himself, so naturally he had to pretend to believe it.
"It's absolutely true!" Fang Pan replied quickly as if grasping a life-saving straw.
And at this time, Fudozi, who was responsible for the white face, also started...
"Bah! Dog officer! Am I so easy to deceive when you are a Taoist?" When Fudozi said this, he suddenly changed into an angry look, and for some unknown reason, he immediately waved his arms and took off his clothes.
, Chuachua took off his Taoist robe in two seconds, exposing the lean muscles of his upper body, "It seems you won't shed tears until you see the coffin!"
