Chapter 329: If you want to advance and retreat

This unexpected discovery made Liu Han frightened, but also faintly excited, although he was not sure that the person in the small courtyard was the head of the sect, but he really wanted to try, after coming out of the Qingxu Sect, except for Chang Meng, he had not made a move, and he had not fought with a real master. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the next few days, the people in Liufu found that Liu Han was a little abnormal, he became more diligent, stayed in the quiet room all day, came out of the quiet room, and went out, Lao Huang felt that something was wrong, and sent someone to call Liu Tie back and let him follow Liu Han, Liu Tie was shocked, since he followed Liu Han, he had never seen him in such a trance.

Liu Tie followed Liu Han and found that Liu Han arrived at the street, asked for a bowl of wontons at the entrance of the street, and ate slowly, but his eyes were staring at a courtyard diagonally opposite, this courtyard looked very ordinary, like all the gates on this street, some old, some vicissitudes, but Liu Tie soon felt that this yard was different, this yard gave people a lush, vibrant feeling, even in this midwinter, there is still such a feeling.

But in the eyes of ordinary people, there is no difference in this yard, the locust trees in the yard are also only dry branches, the roof is also dry thatch, the courtyard wall is also dusty, the wall is cracked, and there are cracks.

Everything is the same as on this street, all the yards.

But in Liu Tie's feeling, this yard is different, the whole yard is faintly vibrant, not from the dry branches, nor from the dusty walls, but from the yard, this yard does not know where to emanate, there is a kind of vigorous vitality, but it is well covered, if Liu Han didn't find out, I'm afraid he Liu Tie would not notice it when he passed by this street.

Liu Tie gasped, sat down beside Liu Han, and ordered a bowl of wontons. Liu Han knew that he was behind him, so he was not the slightest surprised.

"There's something weird about this yard. ”

Liu Han nodded silently, when Brother Hu took him into the alley, he noticed it, otherwise he wouldn't have explored this small courtyard with his divine sense.

Liu Tie gushed out a kind of eager desire, Liu Han gave him a few bottles of pills, his realm had reached the peak of martial arts, the threshold was already crumbling, but he always felt that something was almost something, there was a thin layer of paper in the middle.

He still needs a chance.

Liu Han's feeling was even more different, he clearly felt that the slightest vitality leaking out of this small courtyard was actually aura, and it was different from the fire aura, this aura had a pure wood attribute, which made Liu Han puzzled.

Mumu's stall owner brought the wontons, there were a few green onions floating in the bowl, the aroma was fragrant, Liu Tie stirred the chopsticks in the bowl twice, drank a small sip of soup, looked at the back of the stall owner, and quietly passed the sound to see if he wanted to go in and see, Liu Han shook his head slightly.

Just kidding, there is such a mysterious master living inside.

The stall owner looked at Liu Han and Liu Tie, and felt a little puzzled, especially the person who came in front, during this time, he came over every once in a while, and he didn't ask for much, so he ate bowls of wontons or noodles, sat for a while and left.

"Have you been doing anything lately? Why don't you care about anything anymore. Lao Huang stopped Liu Han, who had just come back, but his eyes drifted to Liu Tie behind him, and Liu Tie nodded at him slightly.

Liu Han shook his head, and Lao Huang immediately understood that he had something, before, he was like this, and when he had something, he shook his head, as if he could throw those troubles out of his mind.

However, Lao Huang didn't ask immediately, this is also experience, he knows that if Liu Han wants to tell him, he will tell him if he doesn't ask, otherwise, even if he asks, there is no result.

Sure enough, after Liu Han sighed, he didn't say a word, Lao Huang had to accompany him silently, and Liu Tie disappeared automatically, and in the Liufu compound, no one could attack Liu Han.

However, Lao Huang's appearance still had a partial effect, Liu Han did not go to the backyard, but walked to the Xiaoxiang courtyard.

When he arrived in the yard, the big head was sitting upright behind the desk and reading, he was completely different from Brother Tiger, the ruffian on Brother Tiger could be smelled from a distance of three feet, but the big head was already like a different person, and there was a faint demeanor of Xiao Huang between his gestures.

Seeing Liu Han and Lao Huang coming in together, the big head immediately got up and saluted the two of them, and then carried a pot of water and put it on the stove in the courtyard.

Liu Han sighed after sitting down, Lao Huang pushed a stack of summaries in front of him, Liu Han didn't look at it, suddenly sighed heavily, and said to himself: "I really want to go in and have a look." ”

Lao Huang frowned slightly: "Go in and have a look, what are you looking at?"

Liu Han sighed again before telling him in detail about the discovery of that street, and Lao Huang was surprised: "Are you sure that the one in that courtyard is the chief instructor you said?"

Liu Han shook his head: "Definitely a master." ”

"Better than you?"

Liu Han nodded, Lao Huang thought about it, and said very resolutely: "Don't go in, since that person's cultivation is higher than yours, don't you go in, aren't we set a punctual standby, you only have two results when you go in, one is to alarm him, and then expose you, and the other result is not to alarm him, but if there is another Chang Meng, the other party is bound to investigate, which is even more unfavorable to us." ”

Liu Han looked very disappointed, nodded silently, Lao Huang's judgment, he didn't expect it, it was because he thought of it, he didn't go in, but seeing a major clue in front of him, he couldn't grasp it, which made him very unwilling.

Lao Huang looked at him and shook his head slightly: "You, smart one, confused for a while, if you want to check, you don't have to go in, he will always come out." ”

Liu Han's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly, he was in a dead end, Lao Huang showed a smile, nodded slightly, Liu Han thought for a while: "Let Meng Da go, identity, identity,."

Lao Huang suddenly interjected: "This place is very strange. ”

Liu Han was slightly stunned at first, and then understood. That street, far from the inner city, or close to the inner city, the inner city has no moat, but it is close to the inner city wall, and the imperial court prohibits the construction of houses, so this one called Kuxing Street is very close to the inner city.

It turned out that after this Li Yan got out of the inner city, he walked around the inner city for half a city, and then skillfully used the labyrinthine alley, walked in a U-shape, and returned to Kuxing Street, which was close to the inner city, so that Liu Han didn't even notice it.

"Why does he live here?" Lao Huang asked, Liu Han was slightly stunned, and then frowned: "Is there something wrong?"

Lao Huang said: "Of course not, he shouldn't live here." ”

Liu Han understood that the development of the imperial capital started from the inner city, first there was a palace city, and then there was an inner city, and after the inner city could not be lived, it expanded outward, just like Beijing in the previous life, first the second ring, then the third, fourth, fifth, and by the time he came, it was already the sixth ring.

The bustling areas of the outer city are mostly far away from the inner city, and Kuxing Street is close to the inner city, but it belongs to the slums, why should such a master live here?

"You'll have to go in and have a look. Liu Han smiled bitterly, and then woke up: "He is for cultivation, and there is aura here." Lao Huang didn't understand what aura was, but he could probably guess it, and Liu Han wondered again: "There is no aura all over the world, and this imperial capital still has aura?! ”

"There are many things we don't know about heaven and earth. Lao Huang gently let this matter go with a word: "Why do you let Meng Da go?"

Mengda, who did not cultivate, followed Liu Han back from the Western Regions, worked in the Zhuangzi outside the city, and was loyal and honest.

"He's very honest, well, by the way, transfer someone from Brother Tiger to him, let them pretend to be brothers, identities, small traders, and go to that street to rent a house. Liu Han said.

Lao Huang thought about it for a while, and felt that Liu Han's choice was still good, he was very cautious, Meng Da did not cultivate, and this move happened to be his best cover.

"Let Brother Hu select the people, and let Liu Dongjiao teach them," Liu Han said to Lao Huang Bianji: "Also, Hu Ping Zhangji, how are they in the yamen?"

Liu Han's command is divided into two categories, one is cultivated, the other is not cultivated; those who are cultivated are divided into two groups, one is the thirty-six iron guards, all of the thirty-six iron guards are above the rank of the samurai, and they are all named with the surname Liu; the other group is the escort team, the members of the escort team are all below the rank of the samurai, they are mainly responsible for protecting the caravans and workshops, and a small number of people are also assigned to help train private soldiers, serving as junior officers of the private soldiers, they still retain their original surnames.

In this era, it is a great honor to be given a surname by the master and become a retainer of the master, and only subordinates who have made great contributions to the master can have this honor.

Hu Ping Zhangji is the person in the escort team, the cultivation of both of them is a samurai, some time ago, the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen was short of people, Liu Han took the opportunity to let them go to the draft, with their cultivation, naturally there is no problem.

"It's still an ordinary catch, and after a while, I plan to make some money and get a catcher. Lao Huang replied casually, Jingzhao Mansion is divided into three kinds, one is the station class officer, this kind of government is mainly responsible for the yamen, such as the county officials, the court trial, they are responsible for maintaining order; the second is the poor force, this kind of government is mainly responsible for guarding the county warehouse, escorting grain, treasury silver, sending official documents, etc., simply put, it is to run errands and make efforts; the third is responsible for public security arrest, this kind of arrest is fast, there is only one head catcher in the ordinary county, and the county government like Jingzhao Mansion, especially Jingzhao Mansion, has a chief head catcher and deputy head catcher, and then divides the head catcher, and then the next layer is fast。

Among the officials, the status of the catcher is the highest, the power is the greatest, and the oil and water that can be caught are also the most, and he wears neat soap clothes every day to show off his might on the street, which is very majestic in the eyes of ordinary people.

However, the government is a cheap servant in the eyes of the scholar gatekeeper, the law of the Great Jin Dynasty contains a clear text, the descendants of the yamen can not enter the office, can not participate in the tasting, not much better than the businessmen, therefore, few people who are advanced in cultivation are willing to enter the yamen as a servant, resulting in a very low combat effectiveness of the yamen, bandits are rampant, so the court realized the mistake, after a dispute and compromise, and revised the law, stipulating that the head catcher is not considered a cheap servant, and the descendants can participate in the tasting and entering the office, Emperor Taizong also gave the head catcher a job field, although not much, but it can be regarded as a name for the head catcher.

Since the head catcher is not a cheap servant, but also a first-class official, there are more people who are fighting, the wealthy clan can't look down on it, but it doesn't mean that others can't look down on it, some side branches of the small scholar clan, local rich households, etc., are all staring, but this head catcher wants to go out to catch thieves, the danger is still quite high, and the people who come to fight for it have to have some ability, otherwise they don't dare to hand it over to him.

In this matter, Shen Lian, the chief catcher of Jingzhao Mansion, Yan Gang, the deputy head catcher, and Shi Zhumin, the head of Jingzhao Mansion, the price is about three hundred taels of silver.

"This matter will be done after the Yuan Festival, oh, let Brother Hu send the child here and get acquainted with Meng Daxian first. Liu Han finally said, Lao Huang did not speak, and sat still.
