Seeing the crowd excited, Lin Shoubei was worried about the possibility of public security problems, so he bowed to Li Qingcha and was about to leave with the tax collector.
Before leaving the dock, he turned back.
"Why are you so good at criminal justice..."
Li Qingcha pretended not to hear.
Lin Shoubei sighed.
He had a hunch that this young man was going to do something big, so he repeatedly wanted to ask for his name.
Unfortunately, things did not go as planned.
Guard Lin kicked the tax collector on the butt as if to vent his anger and left with him.
The tax collectors were arrested, and the bank was unattended, so naturally no one collected taxes. The merchants carried the "taxes" they had just paid and went back to their own homes.
Suddenly, the pier became lively again.
Yao Zhixing walked towards Li Qingcha,
Gong Lianxue quickly stood between the two of them, her eyes sharp and full of warning.
Yao Zhixing cursed in his heart: Female evil star...
He snorted coldly,
"Sir, you are indeed a native of the capital. You have a keen eye for judging the yin and yang and have brought the murderer to justice. However, you cut my brother's body here and there and bled him out before it was cold. Isn't that a bit too much?"
Li Qingcha glanced at Yao Zhixing.
"Want money?"
"Humph!"
"You can ask for money, but unfortunately I won't give it to you. Do you deserve it?"
"..."
Yao Zhixing's eyes bulged out because he was angry, like a frog with swollen eyes.
He opened his mouth and was about to say something.
Snapped--
There was a crisp sound.
Xiang Nan came back at some point and gave Yao Zhixing a loud slap in the face.
"roll!"
There is a saying that is rough but true: "Reading is so that you can reason with an idiot calmly, and fitness is so that an idiot can reason with you calmly."
In "The Great World", fitness ≈ practice,
Yao Zhixing thought that Li Qingcha was a scholar, and if he came up to him and asked for money shamelessly, he might be able to get some money.
But he forgot that there were two female cultivators of the sixth rank beside Li Qingcha.
Snapped--
"roll!"
Snapped--
"roll!"
Snapped--
"roll!"
……
Xiang Nan slapped Yao Zhixing and told him to get out.
Yao Zhixing also wanted to leave, but his shoulders were held by Gong Lianxue, so he couldn't move at all and could only stay where he was and be beaten into a pig's head.
Chapter 120 Model
Yao Zhixing was severely beaten and finally found an opportunity to escape.
Call ~
Xiang Nan let out a sigh of relief.
Gong Lianxue clapped her hands and brushed off the dust.
"You are such an ungrateful person, you dare to cause trouble for me, Senior Brother."
"It's not surprising that the Tie Pai Gang has developed into this," Li Qingcha said. "I think it won't be long before this coolie union will completely transform into a gangster organization."
"A thug?"
"Well, if I want to get your asylum, I have to charge you some protection money, right?"
This is the first time I've heard of the term protection fee.
Gong Lianxue covered her lips and smiled secretly.
Xiang Nan was silent for a while, then asked, "What happened just now? Why can you identify someone by dropping blood?"
Gong Lianxue tilted her head.
"I said."
"Well," Li Qingcha replied, "You go ahead."
"Then I'll tell you. The method is actually very simple. Just add alum to the water, and even if two people are unrelated, their blood will dissolve."
This was the knowledge Li Qingcha had accumulated when Zhou Nan murdered his sister-in-law.
She heard that women used Impatiens and alum to dye their nails, and she knew that many women would carry these things in their dressing boxes.
Gong Lianxue found it easily when she was preparing the container and water.
Xiang Nan asked again: "Then how did you mix it in... I mean, didn't you use two bowls?"
"Yeah, that's right."
"Then logically speaking, if there is alum in a bowl, the blood in the bowl should not be in the form of drops. It should spread very quickly. Shouldn't it be obvious at a glance?"
"Well... think about it, how did my senior brother mix the blood drops in the two bowls of water together?"
Gong Lianxue blinked subtly.
Xiang Nan fell into memories.
then……
"I remember now, Brother Li poured a drop of blood into another bowl along the wall of the bowl." She said, "Alum was smeared on the edge of the bowl?"
"That's right." Gong Lianxue smiled.
"What happened next? What about those times when the tax collector experimented on himself?"
"Heh, with my skills, I can also add ingredients while he's doing it."
It turned out to be the case.
Xiang Nan couldn't help but admire him, and when he looked at Li Qingcha again, his eyes had changed subtly.
This kind of person should be referred to as someone who moves cautiously at every step.
Maybe it really is Li Qingcha...
At this time, the merchant of the civilian ship that Li Qingcha and Gong Lianxue were on came over and whispered, "You two, we will waive your ship fare and future food expenses."
He deliberately lowered his voice, fearing that other passengers would hear him.
Gong Lianxue waved her hands quickly.
"No, no, we were just...seeing justice for the poor? Uh... barely."
The merchant opened his mouth, wanting to continue his persuasion.
Finally, someone interrupted and said, "You have saved us so much cargo and we are taking the ship for free. We will not be dissatisfied at all."
The one who spoke was the young merchant selling porcelain.
Others followed suit.
"You're right!"
"We know how to repay a favor, don't we?"
"We had a great time watching such a big show of catching tax collectors!"
……
Ah this...
Gong Lianxue looked at Li Qingcha helplessly.
Li Qingcha could only nod.
The ship merchants were delighted.
"This matter is settled."
After saying that, he turned around and boarded his boat.
Watching his back disappear among the thousands of fishing lights, Li Qingcha couldn't help but feel emotional, but he couldn't say anything and could only sigh deeply.
Gong Lianxue chuckled.
"Brother, no matter what, I will support you."
There was more admiration in the girl's eyes.
Xiang Nan, who was standing by, saw it all and couldn't help but recall the first time the three of them met, when Li Qingcha talked at length about the shortcomings of the sect's management.
In the future, will the Rizong sect also develop into this state?
Thinking of this, the girl shook her head.
No, Master is definitely not that kind of person.
But the problem is that the Rizong sect is not something that can be decided by the master alone. The disciples also need to eat. A bumper year is fine, and one or two famine years are not a big deal, but what about continuous disasters and poor harvests?
To put it another way, even if there is no problem with Rizong, other regions will be affected.
For every cent of tax that is reduced from the sect, there will be an extra cent of famine in other areas.
Xiang Nan looked at Li Qingcha.
stare--
Li Qingcha couldn't help but shiver, because there was an indescribable desire in the other person's eyes, like hunger and thirst, like a wolf and a tiger, like complaining, like crying and longing...
This is like trying to strip yourself into an Aries and throw yourself onto the bed.
"Ahem..." Li Qingcha cleared his throat, "Brother Xiang, let's say goodbye now."
"Well, that's all for today." Xiang Nan nodded, and then he seemed to remember something and called Li Qingcha, "Brother Li, wait a moment!"
"scare!"
"Brother Li?"
"Well... well, what else do you have to advise me, Brother Xiang?"
"You don't need to call me that. My real name is Xiang Nanyu. I think Brother Li has already noticed that I am not a man."
The girl looked sincere.
Apparently, she wanted to exchange her real name.
Li Qingcha: ...
"You gave a fake name, so we also gave fake names. This is rude." She said, "Now, you give your real name, so we have to follow suit? You are so shameless..."
This sentence is a model of straight men.
Xiang Nanyu: ???
She had never been scolded like this by a man before, and in person.
