Tang Qi Tan

Chapter 628 New Line
At the same time when the thin quilt was spread out, blocking the sight of each other, she picked up a sweat towel next to the pillow with one hand, shook the roll and snapped the cloth like a stick; The poisonous dragon drew Jiang Tian face to face.At the same time, he soared into the air like a crane, and kicked his foot towards Jiang Tian's legs.

In an instant, the cloth stick whizzed towards it, like a real hard object, piercing straight through the falling quilt; and tearing open a big mouth with a whistling sound; face.But he didn't dodge or dodge, he didn't even blink his eyes, he just pinched his fingers and flicked on the cloth bundle.

There was a sudden crackling sound, and the originally stick-like cloth bundle was like a poisonous dragon that had its spine removed and burst from it.Starting from the front end, the layers were peeled off and crumbled into strands of cloth; they were scattered in the air one after another.However, at this time, it was hidden below and came up.

There was only a muffled sound like defeating leather, and Jiang Tian didn't even move; however, the woman's face changed and she cried out in pain.Because, her foot seemed to be kicking on a rock that has been around for thousands of years, and she felt that the entire arch of her foot was shattered by the shock, and she lost consciousness in an instant of severe pain.

Then, someone grabbed her ankle heavily in his hands; then he took advantage of the situation and pulled her over in the air.However, at this critical moment, the woman turned her body back without hesitation, using a bowed posture that is difficult for ordinary people to do, and kicked Jiang Tian's ears and shoulders with the other foot like a spring.

But he was slapped away by Jiang Tian's understated palm; only a small crisp sound was heard, and the slender ankle suddenly twisted in one direction involuntarily.Then he didn't have time to let out a scream, and in the sudden huge force, he lost his sense of direction and hit the ground hard.

There was only a short sound in the room, a burst of violent slapping sounds.But the guards outside turned a blind eye and even stopped Qiu Ji who wanted to find out.Until the woman like a dead snake came out and slammed into the wall with a slamming sound; then it slid down like a sticker.

However, at the next moment, when Jiang Tian was indifferent, the woman spat out another mouthful of blood, and her face flushed abnormally again; like a snake body that had not yet died, she forcibly propped up her body with her seriously misplaced elbow; bit Leaning against the edge of the window sill with silver teeth, he jumped out with all his might.

The next moment, Jiang Tian held her slender neck through the void, and slowly pulled it back while struggling and twisting like a dehydrated fish.The originally pretty face was turned blue and purple and distorted.Jiang Tian also shook his head slightly at her and said, "It seems that the negotiation broke down."

"Revenge for the kindness of life-saving, and even tried to attack the officials of the court face to face. Next, please have a good taste of my subordinates, who were originally used to deal with those alien and evil methods. I hope you can hold on for a little longer. "

"Wait...wait..." However, at this moment, she, who was bleeding from her mouth and nose, and her eyes were like stagnant water, flashed another expression of disbelief and panic.Shouted in a difficult voice: "You..., you said... what?, you... are... who are you?"

"You don't even know who I am, but you dare to fight in person. Who gave you the courage?" Jiang Tian laughed instead of anger: "I am the imperial censor appointed by the imperial court. Dao's demon is asking for arrest, and he is currently investigating the case; say, why did you appear in the Quming Tower?"

"The concubine Fang Yi, who belongs to Qixiufang's wife Qixiu, is honored to be one of the sword girls." A moment later, the woman who was shackled by the restraints on the railing reported her family background in a low voice with a sluggish face: " This time I was ordered to come to Luzhou to track down the people involved in a secret leak in the workshop."

"That's really a coincidence, and it's also strange." Jiang Tian lightly pointed at the desk, half-truthfully said: "I was also entrusted with Aunt Gongsun to investigate the possible existence of inner ghosts and collusion between inside and outside in Qixiufang. but why I have never heard of it, she also sent additional people to investigate."

Then, under Jiang Tian's signal, Linghu Xiaomu took out a simple and unpretentious jade ring and displayed it in front of her.Seeing the pupils of the woman named Fang Yi shrank, she flashed a look of shock, annoyance, and even remorse, and said in a miserable voice: "It was the concubine who offended Shang Qing, and almost made a big mistake."

"In this case, then give me a detailed account of the reason why you came to Jiangnan, as well as what happened and encountered before and after." Jiang Tian nodded slightly: "It just happens to be based on the results of my investigation. Only by making a comparison can we know what went wrong in that link?"

After a while, Jiang Tian came out of the room, and at the same time explained that the woman who claimed to be a sword girl would continue to be under strict guard; waiting for the identity verification from Qixiufang in Pingkangli, the capital.Nevertheless, Jiang Tian got some brand new inside information and useful information from her self-reported experience.

For example, the Qixiufang, which is still very grouped on the surface, and the Qixiu and thirteen beauties from the Gongsun aunt down; the invisible competition between each other, with the continuous changes in the world over the years, has evolved into mutual suspicion and conflict. trend.What followed was that the heads of the clubs dispatched to various places had accidents one after another.

But this time, the swordsman Fangyi who came to the local area to investigate seemed to be the lady Qiu Ji, the head of the local society (inner ghost) who was supposed to provide assistance, and she took advantage of it.Before escaping, he used true and false clues and provided the identity of the maid to lure her to the Quming Building in Wang's mansion.

Then, what happened speaks for itself.If it wasn't for the person A manipulated by Jiang Tian at the right time; next, either the lustful Wang Boxian has a high probability of dying on the last card of the sword Ji Fangyi's violent attack; or she was killed by Wang Boxian on the spot, but it was also delayed chance of escape.

Even in the midst of both losses, he happened to be successfully captured by the government as a witness.Whether it is Wang Boxian's identity as Wu Desi, or the Jingshi Qixiufang behind Jian Ji Fangyi; they are enough to mislead the official investigation and shift to other wrong directions, so as to obtain a buffer to eliminate clues and traces.

It can be said that it is a scheming plan that kills multiple birds with one stroke; but Jiang Tian also learned from this that there are more origins in the early years of the former head of the Fangwen Society, the well-known lady Qiu Ji.For example, her real name was Qiu Ji, and she was not from the traditional Pingkang Academy, but a family member of a prisoner in the Jiaofang Division.

It is said that her mother was once a female official next to the Empress Dowager Yao and Shun, but she was seduced by Naifu, who was a child of a vassal at that time, and she was unmarried and secretly married.It was the Empress Dowager Yao and Shun who came forward to press down on this scandal and make things happen for the two of them.But later the fraud case broke out in the Lifan Academy, and Naifu was sentenced to exile for nine thousand miles.

And she was sitting with her mother, filling the official status of Jiaofang Secretary; but at any rate, she was a former female official of the inner court and an old person of the Empress Dowager Yao and Shun.Therefore, without suffering for several years, he soon caught up with Shengshou's amnesty.Since then, she was taken in by Yiyinglou's old acquaintances, and thus became a member of Qixiufang.

Since then, it has been named Qiuji.Therefore, Mrs. Qiu Ji, who has experienced the daughter of the official family, the slave of the Jiaofang Division, and the important member of Qixiufang, was once one of the popular candidates for the thirteen beauties of Yiyinglou.It was not until more than 20 years ago that I invited myself to go to the local area to assume the duties of the head of a party and the lady of the capital.

Therefore, after hearing such a story, Jiang Tian also had a faint premonition; it seemed that the progress of his next task would fall on this "Chief" who was on the run.However, before the teams that went to various places in Luzhou to search the secret strongholds came to reply, there was another wave of trouble.

But the fleet at the junction of Jiangdong and Jiangxi received a report from Xuanzhou about the local anomaly "Rain City"; then as usual, several teams were sent to investigate, and together with the team training team convened by the local area to block the area, they lost contact with the unexpected news.Therefore, Jiang Tian can only put down here and rush to deal with it.

However, Jiang Tian still kept Linghu Xiaomu in Luzhou to be responsible for the follow-up investigation and the response of the unreturned team; it was also a necessary guarantee measure.In case something happens, as long as she, who has been marked by Jiang Tian, ​​takes the initiative to pass on the message, Jiang Tian can arrive in an instant through the "jumping" mode.

And on the express boat that rushed all the way to the south of the river; Jiang Tian also learned about this abnormal area tentatively named "Rain City" through the news delivered along the way; or, it is suspected to be a new secret place.About a few months ago, it appeared by Danyang Lake in Xuanzhou.

Its characteristic is that it is like endless rain all day long.However, at that time, it was the most common rainy season in the south of the Yangtze River; therefore, it did not attract much local attention.As a result, the rainy season has continued to end in other places, and the harvest of summer grain has not yet ended.

This attracted the attention of the government.However, the scope of this rain area has also expanded from a few small fishing villages by Danyang Lake in Dangtu County, Xuanzhou, to the surrounding three market towns of Gaocheng, Shuiyang, and Huangchi; and the rain in such a large area is non-stop , enough to cause at least more than [-] mu of farmland to fail.

This has already had a very serious impact on the performance appraisal and evaluation of local officials.Therefore, they had no choice but to send people into the rainy area, and found the fishing village where the abnormal event was suspected to have occurred; only to find that it was already in dilapidated condition, and all the strange objects in the houses were seriously decayed.

It's like it's been abandoned for a long time.However, before the local upper echelons of Xuanzhou decided to evacuate the people in the rain area amidst a dispute.Then, news was received that many villages in the depths of the rainy area, together with the tax collectors and town soldiers who had gone to visit, had disappeared together.

Until the fleet patrolling the river and censor received a message from Jiangdong Road and sent an investigation team.Only then did the local government make up its mind to evacuate those civilians who might be affected from the towns and villages on the edge of the rain zone; and began to block all roads entering the rain zone.

And the few exploration teams that went to the local area to investigate and make preparations before, together with the regiment training and village soldiers convened locally, were in the process of execution; without warning, the range of the rain area that was suddenly expanded again ; to be devoured/lost contact in disguise.

　I'm so stupid. I wrote the chapter last night, but it was left in the draft box without sending it.
