Ouyang Nuomin glared at Liu Chuanfeng and snapped,"Second Brother, don't talk nonsense. Big Brother's martial arts is much stronger than that Head Instructor. Mr. Zhang, there are indeed a few strong people among the Zhou family's guard instructors. Even Second Brother and I can't stop them if we join forces.”
" It's a little strange," Ye Qingxian said." You killed the eldest son of the Zhou family in the Prosperous Fortune Restaurant. The Zhou family should have searched the world for the murderer." For some reason, they did not do so. Could there be some conspiracy behind this?”
Zhang Chen shook his head and said," We're outsiders to begin with. After we arrived in Tingzhou, we didn't show our faces everywhere. As long as the Zhou family has a brain, they won't look for us with great fanfare. They won't not understand the principle of alerting the enemy.”
"Are you saying that they are investigating in secret?”Ye Qingxian said.
Zhang Chen nodded. This was the most likely possibility.
"Mr. Zhang said that you want to catch a big fish, but do you want to do it yourself?" asked Fang Yulong.”
Ouyang Nuomin and Liu Chuanfeng also looked at Zhang Chen expectantly.
Zhang Chen had been on the mountain for a long time, but he had never personally made a move. Everyone wanted to know how high this mysterious Mister Zhang's martial arts were.
"Hehe, why would I need to deal with some corrupt officials?”Zhang Chen smiled slightly, but it made everyone even more puzzled.
"Mr. Zhang, don't keep us in suspense. Tell us what to do!" Liu Chuanfeng asked anxiously.”
" It's been three days," Zhang Chen said casually." His Majesty might have received the letter and dossier sent back by Miss Qing Xian." It would probably not be long before the imperial court sent people to listen to their orders. It was even possible that there were experts who had already rushed to Tingzhou. It's not difficult to confirm this. You should have spies in the city. Just ask if there are any unfamiliar faces entering the city.”
"Once the experts sent by His Majesty arrive, all the noble families will be useless. What's there to worry about?”
Everyone could not help but nod. If the imperial court was really willing to send experts, that would be the best.
As they were talking, some bandits came to report.
"Mr. Zhang, someone at the foot of the mountain has handed over a visiting card.”
Zhang Chen took the card and glanced at it. He smiled and said,""Speak of the devil, the golden constable of Six Fan School is here. Chief Fang, please welcome him.”
"That's right," Fang Yulong said seriously."What's the trouble? Mr. Zhang and Miss Qing Xian, please take a seat here. We'll be back soon.”
……
Not long after, Fang Yulong and the others brought a group of unfamiliar faces back to the hall.
Zhang Chen stood up and blocked the door. He said indifferently,"The left and right hold the sword book."
The leader of the group of unfamiliar faces said,"Kill the ants and rats."
This person had a dignified appearance, but his skin was a little dark. His eyes were bright, and his temples were bulging. There were thick calluses on the palms and backs of his hands. His martial arts were obviously not weak.
He held swords and books on his left and right, killing ants and rats up and down.
This was the secret code of the Six Fan School. Although it was a secret code, many people outside knew about it.
The first step was to communicate with the people of Six Fan School.
The ants and rats in the secret code referred to the villains who committed the crime.
Anyone who was scolded like an ant or a rat would feel dissatisfied.
If the person who read the secret code had something on his mind, his face might show some strangeness. As long as his eyesight was good enough, he could more or less see some tricks.
Therefore, a simple code could be considered a test for the constables of Six Fan School.
Zhang Chen carefully examined the other party for a moment before handing over his wooden token.
The tanned man also took out a gold medal and handed it to Zhang Chen.
Both sides checked for a moment and nodded their heads. There was no problem with the token.
"I'm Zhang Chen. How should I address you, senior Jin Pai?”
"I'm Li Yuanchu. The people beside me are Zhou Huaian, Li Xiangyun, Xu Wenqiang…"
"Arrester Li and your colleagues, please come in for a talk." Zhang Chen raised his hand and gestured.”
Everyone entered the hall and sat down.
Zhang Chen was still sitting at the head of the table. He asked in a neither servile nor overbearing manner,"Did you receive any orders when you came, Arrester Li?”
Li Yuanchu said," The higher-ups asked us to deal with the Luosha Sect. However, His Majesty has issued a secret edict for us to listen to the imperial envoy's orders. I wonder if the imperial envoy's certificate is in your hands?"”
Zhang Chen remained silent and looked at Ye Qing Xian.
Ye Qingxian calmly took out the imperial sword and the death-exemption medallion.
Li Yuanchu and the others hurriedly stood up and bowed to the Imperial Sword and the death-exemption medallion. They only dared to stand up after Ye Qingxian put away the sword and medallion.
"We are willing to listen to the imperial envoy's orders.”
Zhang Chen smiled." You don't have to call me Lord. I'm just a constable with a wooden badge."”
Li Yuanchu said seriously," The Six Fan School is the yamen that respects the rules the most. No matter what position Lord Zhang held previously, since he is now an imperial envoy, he is a higher rank. I dare not overstep his authority."”
"Since Senior insists, then I'll be too careless." Zhang Chen nodded.”
"I heard that Azure Dragon Village is arresting corrupt officials and evil gentry. Do you need us to take action?"”
Zhang Chen smiled." There are really a few tough bones that are not easy to chew on. Everyone came at the right time."”
Li Yuanchu was very happy." That's good. We're not afraid of strong enemies, but we're afraid that we won't be able to use our skills!"”
Zhang Chen pointed at Fang Yulong." The arrest list is in Chief Fang's hands. Senior Li can discuss with Chief Fang which family to attack first. I won't participate in the arrest."”
Li Yuanchu nodded slightly.”
