casket of old days

Chapter 59 Closures and Claims

Under everyone's gaze, the fox was blooded by the Taoist Fa Yuan, and then daubed on the mouths of several dogs. After a cup of tea, the dogs remained unchanged, and Gu Wei became a little nervous.

After an incense stick of time passed, the dogs still remained unchanged, and Gu Wei's face became increasingly ugly: "Impossible, impossible, I watched them go into heat before."

After the time for another two cups of tea passed, Taoist Fa Yuan shook his head: "This fox blood has no aphrodisiac effect, I'm afraid this fox..."

Although Fa Yuan didn't finish his words, everyone present understood the meaning behind his words.

He Zhixian's eyes widened in an instant, and he gave Gu Wei who was beside him a hard look.

Gu Wei's back was already drenched in cold sweat. Feeling the coercion coming from Hezhi County, he knelt down on the ground with a plop: "My lord! My blood test was clearly successful!"

He Zhixian stared at Gu Wei coldly: "How dare you get away with a big case like the blood corpse case?"

Originally, these headhunters under his command were acting recklessly, and he knew something about the fish and meat people, but he never thought that Gu Wei would dare to play tricks on the blood corpse case. Wouldn't this drag him to finish playing together?
You must know that once he really handed over the fox caught by Gu Wei, and the Hao family discovered the flaw, then all kinds of speech officials would impeach him, and his black hat would definitely be lost.

When he thought that his official position was almost harmed by the untouchable in front of him, killing intent rose in He Zhixian's heart.

Gu Wei was so frightened that he was dumbfounded, kneeling on the ground, kowtowing to He Zhixian continuously, crying out his grievances while kowtowing.

Gu Wei suddenly thought of Chu Qiguang who just insisted on the blood test, and immediately said loudly: "It's all Chu Qiguang, he insists on the blood test so much, he must have done something to frame me!"

"Chu Qiguang! Did you villain harm me!"

Speaking of this, Gu Wei rushed towards Chu Qiguang violently, the power of the second level of martial arts exploded, and swept towards Chu Qiguang with gusts of fist wind.

"How dare you be presumptuous?!" He Zhixian snorted coldly, and slapped Gu Wei's face directly. Under the slap of terrifying force, the air exploded a series of times, and Gu Wei flew out and fell to the ground.

"Don't do this headhunter."

"Come on, take him down."

Hearing that his headhunting position was taken away, Gu Wei's face turned ashen for a moment. He has been doing both black and white in Qingyang County for many years, relying on his identity as a headhunter. Once he doesn't have this identity... I don't know how many people will fall into trouble, and everyone will push the wall down, which is more uncomfortable than killing him.

He was so frightened that his nose and tears flowed sideways for a moment, and while being dragged away, he cried bitterly and shouted: "Master! You are wronged! You are wronged!"

Seeing Gu Wei being dragged away by the guards, Chu Qiguang knew that he was finished.

Qiao Zhi, who was hiding aside, looked at the head catcher who was being dragged down like a dead dog, feeling relieved: "Humph, that's what happens if you offend us monsters, so what if you're the county magistrate or the Taoist temple, isn't it just being played by Chu Qiguang?" between."

Chen Gang looked at Chu Qiguang with admiration on his face, thinking that he must hang out with Brother Gou in the future. Being a monster is really much more prestigious than being a monster.

He Zhixian asked the county magistrate to take care of the next thing, and he went back to the yamen by himself.

He Xian said: "I never imagined that Butou Gu would dare to do such a thing."

Daoist Fa Yuan had no surprise on his face: "These servants in the yamen have always been bold, deceiving their superiors and exploiting their subordinates. It is not surprising that they can do such a thing."

Chu Qiguang couldn't help but glance at Taoist Fayuan. When it comes to exploitation, your Taoist temple is even worse.

Daoist Fayuan said strangely again: "Speaking of it..." He looked at the fox's body and said, "This fox belongs to a male. I can't tell that Hao Yongnian is lucky."

Chu Qiguang: "...I've heard that he and his boy are sometimes too close, but I didn't expect him to be this kind of person."

Although the county magistrate has left, the magistrate can still be in charge of the blood corpse case.

The next thing is step by step, the county magistrate and Chu Qiguang discussed it, and after the Hao family's reward silver is delivered, Chu Qiguang will be divided into 200 taels at that time, so that he will not tell about Gu's catcher.

As for the remaining 300 taels of the 200 taels originally distributed to Gu Butou and his fast hands, of course it went into the pockets of Taoist temples and county magistrates.

Knowing that he has been busy killing people, abandoning corpses, handling scenes, and solving cases, although the money has not been delivered yet, but after negotiation, he can only get 200 taels of silver, Chu Qiguang became more and more dissatisfied .

He thought to himself: "I only earn 200 taels like this... If I have time, I might as well go to my brother's house twice more. Selling some melatonin will definitely earn more than this." '

Chu Qiguang sighed in his heart: "It's all because there are too many middlemen, bloated institutions, too slow processes, and rampant bureaucracy... These are all system problems." '

Next, he met the family members of the victim who rushed over... the Hao family in the county government office.

This time the Hao family came to the county government office. It was Hao Yongnian's eldest brother, Hao Yongtai.

As soon as Hao Yongtai saw Chu Qiguang, he thanked Chu Qiguang very much. This Hao Yongtai is much more upright than his younger brother Hao Yongnian.

Hearing that it was Chu Qiguang who helped identify the fox demon and finally found the fox demon's body, he was very grateful to Chu Qiguang.

He Xian said from the side: "Brother Hao, you haven't seen it. Brother Chu's ability to track the monsters and judge the case is really amazing. I think that any monsters in the county will be handed over to Brother Chu to catch."

"It's all good luck." Chu Qiguang shook his head modestly, and then said to Hao Yongtai with sadness in his eyes: "Brother Hao, your condolences are changing. I had a drink with Yongnian a few days ago. I wish him this year's martial arts." Ke was able to get a martial arts student, but in a blink of an eye, heaven and man will be separated forever."

"Oh, I told him to stop being promiscuous, but he was still seduced by the fox demon." Hao Yongtai sighed, and cupped his hands at Chu Qiguang: "Thank you brother Chu this time."

Just when Hao Yongnian asked the servants to bring up the 1000 taels of reward silver and hand it over to the yamen to start sharing, Chu Qiguang said: "Mr. Hao, I don’t know if I can give up my reward silver and exchange it for another one." thing."

"Oh? What do you want?"

"I heard that Hao's library has a rich collection, and all kinds of books in Jingshiziji are very detailed. I want to borrow some."

Chu Qiguang thought to himself, compared to 200 taels of silver, it is better to find an opportunity to check the books of the big family, look at the history of this world, and by the way, look for traces of the secret scriptures of the Zifu.

Especially for things like borrowing books, I went to the Hao family's door several times, and with Chu Qiguang's means, it was easy to get in touch with the Hao family.

In this way, not only can he find some ways to make money from the Hao family, but also allow Chu Qiguang to find a way to get a recommendation qualification for martial arts from the Hao family in the future.

Compared with 200 taels of silver, Chu Qiguang valued an opportunity to enter the wealthy circle of Qingyang County.

'After all, brother Hao can't die in vain, and his family has to take care of me. '
