Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    When Zhao Ran was trying to think about the reasons behind Jiang Zhiheng's disappearance, Qu Fenghe came in and reported: "Miao Zhu, someone outside asked to see Miao Zhu. He said he was from Zhaojiazhuang, Shiquan County, and was a younger brother of Miao Zhu, named Zhao Tianbao"

    "Let him in quickly." Zhao Ran ordered.

    When he was in Zhaozhuang, Zhao Ran was often taken care of by Uncle Zhao's family. Uncle Zhao's son Tian Bao was just seven years old at the time. He often surrounded Zhao Ran and listened to him tell various stories. Now this child should  He is also fifteen or sixteen years old.

    " Then Qu Fenghe brought in a young man who was about the same age as him from outside. He didn't have the aura of wealth in Qu Fenghe, but his face was much simpler and his body was much stronger.

    After the young man came in, he stared at Zhao Ran for a moment with bulging eyes. He was a little unsure and asked in a rough voice: "Third brother?"

    Zhao Ran has changed a lot in the past eight years, and now he is wearing a Taoist robe. It is really not that easy to recognize him at a glance.

    But Zhao Ran immediately recognized the young man. In addition to the vague shadow of his youth between his brows and eyes, the black birthmark under his right ear was the most obvious sign.

    "Tian Bao is here, come in and sit down." Zhao Ran waved to him with a smile and asked Qu Feng to go to the kitchen and bring some food over.

    As soon as Qu Fenghe went out, Tian Bao fell to his knees on the ground and cried: "Third brother, come home with me quickly, save my parents ugh"

    Zhao Ran was shocked: "What's wrong? Say it quickly!"

    Tian Bao cried and told what happened.

    Since Zhao Ran went to Wujiyuan, Uncle Zhao¡¯s family immediately became popular in Zhaozhuang.  First, a few people from the Weiyuan Escort Bureau came and spent the money sent by Zhao Ran to build a large house outside the village and let Uncle Zhao and his family move in. Then they used various means to buy a nearby house from the family of the patriarch, Fourth Uncle Zhao.  Two hundred acres of land.

    How powerful is the Weiyuan Escort Bureau in Long'an Mansion? Who doesn't work hard on the matters ordered by the Young Chief Escort Chief?  After all the troubles, most of the fourth uncle's family fortune was wiped out. Uncle Zhao's family was kind-hearted and could not bear to retaliate excessively against the fourth uncle, otherwise the Weiyuan Escort Agency could really bankrupt the fourth uncle's family.

    The fourth uncle suffered such a big loss, but there was nothing he could do. His old man, the former patriarch who had been a layman of Xizhenwu Palace's firework, had passed away long ago, and he encountered Zhao Ran's troubles in Wujiyuan.  , he had no intention of getting this loss back, so he just endured it for several years.

    Originally, life was going on like this, but unexpectedly things took a turn for the better.

    Last month, a fireworker layman came to Zhaozhuang. This man claimed to be from Junshan Temple and his name was Song Xiong.  After he arrived at Zhaozhuang, he went straight to Uncle Zhao's house, bought various gifts, and held a banquet to entertain the village neighbors. Later, when he saw that Uncle Zhao's house was in some damage, he simply went to Shiquan County to hire a mason.  He and the carpenter helped Uncle Zhao's family renovate the house and expand a few more rooms.

    Song Xiong had heard Guan Er mention Zhao Ran's past, and knew that Zhao Si, the patriarch, had bullied Zhao Ran and Uncle Zhao, so he didn't have a good look on Zhao Si who came up to show his courtesy, which made Zhao Si quite depressed.

    On the night when the renovation of the house was completed, Song Xiong once again held a banquet to entertain the whole Zhao family in the village to celebrate. However, after getting drunk that night, he was kidnapped by several outsiders who suddenly rushed in. These outsiders claimed to be Taoist inspectors.  , specializing in catching illegal fugitives, quickly kidnapped Song Xiong.

    The next day, the young men and servants of Fourth Uncle Zhao¡¯s family broke into Uncle Zhao¡¯s house, saying that Uncle Zhao had colluded with the wanted criminals of the court and had done something illegal.  At the same time, he also reported it to the Shiquan County government, accusing Uncle Zhao's family of colluding with bandits and causing harm to the township.

    Tian Bao was studying in a private school in the county at the time. When he heard about it, he immediately came straight to Junshan to find Zhao Ran to save him.

    After listening, Zhao Ran immediately asked: "How are the uncle and aunt? How are the other people in the family?"

    Tian Baodao: "I don't know, either. As soon as I found out about this, I ran directly to Third Brother, and I didn't dare to delay for a moment! Third Brother, please go back and save my parents"

    Zhao Ran patted his shoulder, nodded and said: "You did it right, very decisively! You eat first"

    Old man Xu brought a dinner plate with rice and vegetables and put it on the table.

    Tian Bao said anxiously: "Third brother, I'm not hungry"

    Zhao Ran comforted him: "It doesn't take much time to fill up your stomach first. I still have questions to ask you clearly."

    Seeing Zhao Ran's calm look, Tian Bao slowly calmed down, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

    Zhao Ran watched him eat and asked, "When was Song Xiong taken away?"

    Tian Baodao: "It should have been four days ago. The first day I was still at home and did not go to the county to study  "

    Zhao Ran asked again: "How many people came to arrest Song Xiong? Have you seen them? What do they look like?"

    Tian Bao shook his head: "I came out of the house early that morning and didn't see the arrest. Brother Song was probably still asleep at the time. He drank too much."

    "Where are uncle and aunt now? Are they locked up in the house by Zhao Laosi, or are they locked up in the county government office?"

    ¡°I was still at home when I heard about it.¡±

    Zhao Ran thought for a moment, called Jin Jiu and others in, and briefly explained the matter. Everyone was very angry, and Guan Er said: "Dong Zhikun must have done it, and it must be Jiang Zhiheng who did it!"

    Zhao Ran said: "He must have come to arrest Song Xiong for our Junshan Temple. As for colluding with bandits, it was just an excuse to arrest people. Song Xiong's identity has been reported to the county government, right?  Junior Brother Jin?"

    Jin Jiu nodded affirmatively: "Not only Song Xiong, but also the rest of the people in the village have reported to the county government, and my lord has done it himself."

    Zhao Ran asked Lin Yuwen again: "You have also reported Song Xiong's status as a pyrotechnical lay practitioner at Wuji Academy. Is this okay?"

    Lin Yuwen said: "Chen Zhizhong helped handle it. It is not ruled out that Dong Zhikun did something."

    Zhao Ran asked: "Besides this matter, are there any loopholes that can be exploited? Think about it."

    Everyone thought about it, but they just wondered if Song Xiong had hidden any major cases in the past, and they really couldn't think of anything else.

    Zhao Ran pondered for a moment and said: "Junior brother Jin will go back to the county office again to find your master and re-verify the matters reported by Song Xiong and others. Yu Wen will do the same and go back to Wuji Courtyard to find Chen Zhizhong. Guan and Lu Er  A junior brother mobilized manpower to investigate everywhere, firstly to find traces of Jiang Zhiheng as much as possible, and secondly to find out the whereabouts of Song Xiong."

    Several people agreed and were ready to leave immediately. Zhao Ran added: "I want to go to Shiquan County immediately and will be back soon. If there is any news, Junior Brother Jin will inform me immediately."

    Zhao Ran is now a Taoist practitioner and has received a lot of flying talismans from Huayun Pavilion that can be used by ordinary people. They are the kind of flying talismans that can be sent one way but cannot reply.  Give the talisman to Jin Jiu. If Jin Jiu informs Zhao Ran of something, he will send the talisman out. Zhao Ran will know that something is happening at Junshan Temple and rush back quickly.

    But Zhao Ran would have to come back and listen to Jin Jiu¡¯s detailed report to find out what exactly happened.

    After giving the instructions, Zhao Ran called the old donkey out and asked Tian Bao to get on the donkey's back and sit in front, while he sat in the back and galloped away in the direction of Shiquan County.
