Maybe it didn't matter at the time, but it may not matter now... As the second largest county magistrate in a county, he has great authority, only under the chief county magistrate.

The powerful family in Qingshui City wants to do something... It should be difficult to avoid him. Besides, he was also a witness to the trial back then, so he might really know something.

But why is it Yan Su... Wouldn't it be better to change to someone else?

Tie Tang shook his head, a little helpless, feeling that all the cause and effect seemed to be predetermined.

In fact, he also knows that major counties are like the roots of a big tree, and Qingshui County is this big tree.

No matter how dense the tree roots are, they will ultimately belong to the tree itself.

All events must pass through Qingshui County and Qingshui City.

And the person in charge of Qingshui City...

Just a few.

"You seem to have encountered a difficult problem?" Tianwen saw something was wrong.

"To be honest, Master, I also have other issues with this person, but the incident involved... should have nothing to do with the incident I am investigating. Can you understand me?"

The muscles at the corners of Tianwen's mouth twitched, "Who are you looking down on?"

"Since you know that Yan Su is inside, do you know what kind of cultivation he has?"

"The top of the sky is the great witch of the soul, because if you go higher up, I can't detect any trace of him.

Of course.

It cannot be ruled out that he deliberately pretended to be a pig to eat the tiger, forcibly lowering his own cultivation level and showing weakness to the enemy."

"He is a county magistrate, and his dignity cannot be violated lightly. He hopes that his cultivation level will be as high as possible, and he should not hide it deliberately.

But even if it’s the great witch of the soul...it’s not something we can touch.”

Tianwen looked indifferent and said, "Go and have a look first, maybe there is a chance?"

"It's okay for me, but Master... can you really go to such a place with fireworks and willows?"

"I'm afraid you don't know. Let me tell you first. I was kicked out by the master's school. They asked me to return to secular life."

After Tianwen finished speaking, he strode forward, leaving only Tie Tang who had not yet recovered.

Thumb thump thump...

Accompanied by steady and powerful footsteps, two majestic figures walked down the corridor and water bridge and arrived in front of a nine-story pavilion.

The front door is painted red and vermilion, with a black golden nanmu plaque hanging on the top, with five large characters inscribed with dragons and phoenixes flying on it.

"The Wind, Flowers, Snow and Moon Pavilion"

The pavilion door only opened a gap the size of two fingers.

There was a continuous sound of piano and flute coming from inside, and from time to time there was cheering like a mountain.

In front of the door, several strong men with horizontal knives hung on their waists were patrolling and looking around. When they saw Tie Tang and his two men approaching, they turned a blind eye.

"Oh, where did these two great men come from? They look so majestic, I really envy you."

"Master, my name is Xiaofeng, come find me."

"Don't worry about this slut. I haven't left the palace yet. I just hope that the lord can take pity on her."

........

On the second floor, there were two or three waiters leaning against the railing. When they saw the figure downstairs, they all dropped their silk scarves and kept singing, flirting with Tie Tang and the others.

"I'm calling you." Tianwen deliberately bumped Tie Tang with his shoulder.

"If you like it, just pick up the scarf and walk up. Why do you need to use these tricks?"

Tie Tang joked with a smile, stepped forward and opened the heavy door.

The noisy sound reaches my ears, there are crowds of people in front of me, and the aroma of rouge and gouache hits my nostrils.

"Okay! Good play, let's play another one."

"How can I satisfy my cravings with one song? Here are ten more."

"Are you rich? Are you just making noise here? Ten songs are returned. If you can eavesdrop on one song here, it is considered a blessing from your previous life."

"What are you talking about? You look down on people, don't you? See if I don't beat you to pieces."

"Am I still afraid of you?"

The two of them were fighting, with glasses of wine and food flying everywhere.

Soon, guards came to stop it, and then someone came to clean it up, smoothing away all traces, as if it had never happened.

"Today's oiran must be Qiu Shui, I said so!"

"Young Master Pang is so heroic and brave, he will surely win the beauty in his arms tonight."

"Autumn water! Autumn water!"

........

After Tie Tang and others came in, they found a relatively secluded corner and looked at it carefully.

"This is too chaotic. I'm afraid no one knows if someone was beaten to death here. Maybe you know where Yan Su is?"

Without answering Tian's question, he stretched out the five fingers of his right hand and quickly jumped back and forth with his thumb on the other four fingers.

A few moments.

He lowered his right hand and looked ugly.

"How?"

"A sign of great evil."
