It was already dinner time, and the food in this restaurant has always been good and it belongs to an old restaurant, so there were many people stuck in the restaurant at this moment. They had already been watching the excitement upstairs and downstairs. After seeing the government officials come in
They all stayed where they were waiting to be released, but now they all looked sideways after hearing Zhang Yan's words.
After all, it is rare for people who have been convicted of a crime to be expelled from the army. Generally, people who have committed minor crimes will not be expelled from the army. Those who are expelled from the army are those who have committed major crimes, and the place they go to is a dangerous place. The identity of a criminal soldier is often consumed in the battle.
There is always room for escape in the near-death situation. Even if it is rare to have one or two all year round, we still hear about it. Now that I saw one with my own eyes, I naturally remembered the name, Zhang Yan.
"Why are you howling?" The catcher's brows furrowed even deeper now, and there were so many things in his heart that he couldn't say at once.
Indeed, as Zhang Yan expected, not only Xiao Chongwen and the others and those green men were the tricks of Mr. Wu, but also the head catcher.
There are two types of yamen servants in the yamen. One is responsible for the internal affairs of the yamen, such as punishment, guarding, chores, and honor guards. The other is responsible for the external affairs of the yamen, such as arrests, escorts, investigations, and patrols. The two types of yamen servants also
Some specific responsibilities will be broken down further. The people who entered the restaurant this time were the team that specializes in investigating various cases, also known as the police.
The leading catcher belongs to the highest position among the government officials and is called the head catcher.
This time he came here to be the final link in a series of measures arranged by Wu Qingling. In other words, he was responsible for collecting corpses or dealing with emergencies. Even if Zhang Yan was not killed by the green skins, he could still use verbal attacks to seize the topic.
Get the people down first.
But before the catcher could finish his words, and before he showed his verbal trap to make Zhang Yan jump, Zhang Yan immediately revealed his protective weapon.
I, after having cleared my sins, am a good citizen, and I have a document to prove it!
Just such a simple message, but it suddenly blocked the arrester who had millions of plans in his mind.
Ignore it? But the document is held high above the head. People with better eyesight who are closer can even see the two scarlet stamps on the document, as well as Zhou Cang's vigorous signature. If this is reckless, wouldn't it be directly related to the garrison city?
Is the Wei Mansion going against it? To put it more seriously, it means that it is disdainful of the military's ability to seal signatures. Not to mention a mere arrest, even Wu Yuan, the city administrator of Langyuan City, cannot bear this blame.
But if you ignore it, what should you say next? You can't take the person back, right? There are so many people present, and if every pair of eyes sees that Zhang Yan has nothing to do with the death of Ma Shan on the ground, there is absolutely no reason to take the person.
The gossip is also something that a little head catcher like him can't handle.
What's more, this matter cannot be brought to the table. It can only be done secretly, and it must be done in accordance with normal rules overtly.
"Hey, Mr. Cha, aren't we worried about your misunderstanding? This apology document already has the seal and approval of Mr. Zhou Cangzhou, the garrison officer of Langyuan City. Now it's still because the official Wang of the Yamen said that it will take two days to register.
, so I carried it close to me to prevent Mr. Chai from misunderstanding and killing me as an escapee."
It was all said and done, and Zhang Yan didn't mind making his intentions clear. It seemed that he was a cautious little person trying to find a stable place for himself, but in the eyes of the people with ulterior motives in the scene, it turned out to be two other people.
Word: cunning.
It’s not easy!
Zhang Yan even thoughtfully showed the confession document in his hand to a few diners behind who craned their necks to see it, and said grandly, "Pass it around and read it, just treat it as a curiosity for all of you gentlemen."
After the other yamen officials had asked a general question and left the addresses and names of everyone present, the restaurant reopened, and a door panel was found for Ma Shan's body on the ground and carried away, with the owner of the restaurant still showing signs of death on his face.
A curtain made of a curtain.
"Hey, I didn't expect that a drinking session would bring such misfortune to Mashan. I feel so guilty!" Zhang Yan stood behind Xiao Chongwen and the others, speaking in a deep voice. But when the three of them heard the sound and looked back at him, they saw no trace of emotion on his face.
An unabashed smile.
For some reason, Xiao Chongwen and the others felt for the first time that they no longer knew the Zhang Yan in front of them, as if they had replaced him with another person after not seeing each other for more than two years.
Hiss! Thinking of the horrific face-changing thing that happened to Ma Shan before, Xiao Chongwen and the others did not even dare to talk to Zhang Yan anymore. They followed the government servants carrying Ma Shan's body as fast as the wind at their feet.
Gone far.
Zhang Yan watched the crowd gather together, and the smile on his face did not shrink. He gained a lot today. Not only did he get the word "Wu Shao", but he also relied on good luck and adaptability to solve the opponent's first problem.
Wheel moves.
"It's really continuous!" Zhang Yan sighed in his heart. Today it seemed that he was going smoothly and neutralizing the opponent's methods without encountering any difficulties, but in fact, if there was even the slightest mistake in every step,
So it was him who was lying on the door panel today and was covered with a cloth and carried away.
"It's hard to deal with!" Zhang Yan knew very well that the main reason why he won this game was "surprise". Who could have known that he brought the Taoist Dragon Tiger Mountain's method to resurrect the corpse? Then Master Wu's method came from
He leaked the air from the beginning, so the winner was determined early.
But what happens next...it's hard to say.
Zhang Yan was even thinking that Young Master Wu was different from him in that he had a big umbrella covering his head.
Taking one last look at the direction Xiao Chongwen and the others were leaving, Zhang Yan also raised his legs and walked in the same direction. It was not that he wanted to catch up and say anything, he had already said what should be said, and let the other party guess what should not be said. Anyway, this is
At that time, that young master Wu should also know that Zhang Yan was no longer as at the mercy of others as before.
It took half a stick of incense to walk along the road. Along the way, I could hear the news of the murder in the restaurant spreading faster than Zhang Yan's footsteps. In a blink of an eye, it seemed that everyone along the way was muttering about it.
The enthusiasm for watching the excitement will not change even if the world changes.
"We're here." Zhang Yan stopped in front of the largest store on this street. Looking up, he could see the three characters "Yuan Pharmacy" on the signboard.
"Sir, do you want to buy medicine or medicinal materials? We have everything in Yuan Pharmacy, and you will never be disappointed."
"Fake stone roots, fire python skin, triangular flowers, sky green grass...each item weighs twenty kilograms."
There was almost no change in the smile on the shop assistant's face, and he repeated the names of the medicinal materials reported by Zhang Yan very quickly and without missing a beat. However, he couldn't help but secretly say: This is a scummy business.
Because the dozens of medicinal materials that Zhang Yan reported in one breath were not enough to go to Hualou to play with my sister. They were all the cheapest goods.
Soon the medicinal materials were ready. Zhang Yan borrowed a cart from the pharmacy and pushed it all the way back to his home in Zhuzui Lane.
