Chapter 1 Catch all at once

Gu Zuo carried a bamboo basket and carried two carp, walked north along Ruoye Creek for half an hour, and turned into a mountain road in Xiaogu Mountain. Inside was a yard surrounded by bamboo fences and three thatched houses.

"Master Wang, I'm back and I've picked up a raccoon cat on the way."

As soon as he pushed open the wood door, he saw the Taoist priest in the thatched room came out with his luggage: "Xiao Gu is back? I went out to get rid of the monsters. You have guarded the Hengyi Pavilion these two days. If someone asks, I will say that I will return in half a month."

"I understand." Gu Zuo put down the bamboo basket and pulled out a little raccoon cat from it: "Master Wang, look."

When he turned his head to look for Daozheng Wang, his figure had already turned around the mountain road and disappeared behind the woods.

Gu Zuo shook his head, locked the cat in the thatched room on the left, made a small nest for it, and then went to the kitchen to cut open the carp, and found a wooden bowl to put it in the pot and cook it.

After feeding the little raccoon cat, Gu Zuo ate all the fish soup and licked it all. He hugged his stomach and lay leisurely in the yard, resting his head and arms, looking up at the starry sky. After looking for a long time, he returned to the thatched hut and fell asleep holding the little raccoon.

The night passed like this.

At dawn, Gu Zuo went to make a fire and cooked porridge, poured out the last one or two meters from the rice bucket, threw it into the pot, and made a pot of porridge. He fed the rice soup to the cat, drank the porridge himself, wiped his mouth after eating, and pushed open the main house of Daozhu Wang.

The piggy bank under the bed was moved out and Gu Zuo didn't hear the sound of the copper coins hitting the piggy bank. He was stunned and quickly opened it, and the tank was empty.

Lying on the ground and looking down at the bed, two straw sandals were thrown under the bed, one of which flipped over the other, and a hole was broken in the sole of the shoe. Suddenly, a little mouse jumped out of it, scaring Gu Zuo.

Gu Zuo stood up and lifted the wooden pillow on the bed. A foot binding cloth was pressed down on it, exuding an unspeakable smell. He didn't care about covering his nose and found a stick to pick the foot binding cloth open, without a single penny of copper coins!

Gu Zuo felt sweaty on his forehead, so he turned around in the simple room and rushed towards the only wooden cabinet. The big copper lock that guarded the wooden cabinet in the past was unknown, but he easily opened the wooden door...

I have nothing, and I have no certificates and licences!

Gu Zuo sat on the bed, staring at the spring scenery outside in a daze through the wooden window.

What is the situation of Daocheng Wang?

While thinking about it, I heard the sound of fragmented footsteps on the mountain road. A group of yamen runners appeared in front of the yard holding iron rulers, water and fire sticks, and ropes, kicked open the wood door and rushed in. The first one was Boss Ji, who was afraid of everyone in the county.

Boss Ji shouted: "Wang Hengyi, you have been in trouble, come out and be bound!"

Gu Zuo came out with a tough bullet and said, "Master Wang went to the foreign country to eliminate demons. He just left yesterday. Ji Bantu, I wonder what happened toMaster Wang?"

Boss Ji sneered: "Master Wang? I'm afraid it's Master Ye! I've been deceived by you for three years. If it weren't for the Dao Masters of Longrui Palace, you would have to cheat here for how many years?"

He waved his hand: "Search!"

Ji Bantou was a Qi Refiner. With him, Gu Zuo, a junior who had not yet started practicing, dared not resist. He was tied up on the spot and held under the wall. Two yamen runners stepped forward and took off the plaque "Hengyi Pavilion" hanging on the beam of the main house, threw it on the ground and broke it a few feet. The rest flocked into three thatched cottages, with neither a scattered nor a dog jumping, and soon came out and nothing came out.

Ji Bantuo had an old case and had a lot of experience. He immediately discussed with a clerk behind him with his eight-character beard: "Song Xing Shu, I'm afraid he will run away."

The clerk was from the county government office. He nodded immediately, crossed the wooden slip under his armpit to his face, wrote two strokes on the document, asked Ji Bantou to press his handprints, turned around and left.

Gu Zuo was taken down the mountain by a group of people, changed boats with the stream, and walked along the Xijiang River into Shanyin County, and went straight to the number room.

Gu Zuo complained to Ji Bantou and Song Xingshu all the way that his family was "injured and suffered" and was also begging to inform the whole story. Song Xingshu was annoyed and said, "The case is clear, so why are there any injustices when you enter the yamen?"

Gu Zuo was still waiting to be defended, Ji Bantou winked and ordered the yamen runners to stuff Gu Zuo's mouth with rags.

Gu Zuo was locked up in a large size. The so-called large size is more than a dozen or dozens of people were locked in the same cell. What would happen after entering? Gu Zuo had heard of it. He immediately tightened his legs and tried to slip into the corner of the wall.

There are at least thirty or fifty people in today's large numbers. Gu Zuo was very afraid at first, but after his eyes adapted to the darkness, he found that something seemed wrong.

He has seen nearly half of these criminals in the big squad.

"Master Liu? You are..." Gu Zuo saw his acquaintance and quickly inquired, and at the same time he clasped his fists: "Master Gao...Master Yuan Dao...Teacher Zhang..."

"Who are you……"

"He is from Xiao Gu, from Hengyi Pavilion."

"Oh, Senior Brother Wang's people... Where is your Taoist Master Wang?"

Gu Zuo replied: "My Taoist priest went out to catch monsters yesterday and said he had returned in half a month."

"This guy! I don't know if I hear the news. I'm useless to regard him as a fellow Taoist! From then on, I'll cut off my robe and make a mistake!"

"That's right, no wonder I came to urge me to pay back the money yesterday. I lost my heart, otherwise wouldn't it be in vain? From then on, my kindness and righteousness will be eliminated!"

"Yes, I'm not righteous! I'm breaking up with friendship!"

"Breaking a friendship..."

The room was filled with righteous indignation. As a member of Hengyi Pavilion, Gu Zuo was also ashamed of the unjust act of his own owner. But no matter how embarrassed it was, the matter still needs to be clear. He asked for advice with shamelessness.

Taoist Master Yuan sighed, "I don't know what Long Ruigong was thinking. He suddenly began to check the qualifications and licenses of various sects and Taoist priests, and he also began to pursue the Taoist priest certificates. He hasn't been asked for more than ten years. Isn't this full of food?"

There was a sudden echo in the room. Some people were indignant, thinking that Long Rui Palace had a dark heart and wanted to increase the levy, while others sighed, saying that this was absolutely impossible to continue to practice, and some were even worried about the world, saying that this move had destroyed the prosperous and prosperous practice situation in Kuaiji County and would have consequences in the future.

Only then did Gu Zuo understand that Shanyin County had illegally opened a sect and gang, and was caught in one go!

Now that things have come to this point, I can only say what can I do.

After staying in the room for three days, Gu Zuo was tried once in the court and was beaten three times, but he was not injured.

Finally, the case of Hengyi Pavilion was quickly sentenced, and several officials in the county did not come forward. The judge was sentenced to the crime: the wild cultivator named Wang, who was named Hengyi, privately punished the Taoist certificate, secretly recorded the statutes, and was a one-year submission. Because it was time to commit a crime, he asked the county to cooperate with each county. His servant Gu, who was named the assistant, did not know how to investigate the matter, and he gave a few improper punishment for three days.

So Gu Zuo was released in such a confused manner again.

After walking out of the room, he had just seen the light again. Before he could adapt to the light in front of him, Gu Zuo was held in a secluded alley by two thugs. He also recognized these two thugs, one Chen Liu and the other Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi crossed his arms and hugged his chest, guarding the alley with a proud and proud momentum. Chen Liu pulled Gu Zuo and whispered: "Don't make a sound after you go back, remember to calm down for half a month. Open the gym again after half a month. The name of the hall is in the card ticket, please keep it!"

Gu Zuo blinked and said half confused: "How dare you open it? I'm already lucky. Most of the fellows in the prison have been miserable. The owners of the museum have been beaten so badly..."

Chen Liudao: "This time it was found out from Longrui Palace's strict investigation of Taoist priest certificates. I won't give you a certificate in the future. You just need to get a card ticket to open it. Even if something happens in the end, it will be just a thirty-year-old stick."

Gu Zuo's face suddenly looked very bad.

Chen Liu sneered: "Look at you, you're so cowardly! You're only thirty rods, and someone is in there to help you keep your pain from hearing the sound."

Gu Zuo thought for a while and asked, "Where has Master Wang been?"

Chen Liudao: "Don't worry, I can't die. I'll go to a foreign land. With our brothers, I will be safe and worry-free!"

Seeing that Gu Zuo was still hesitating, Chen Liu said again: "I remember right, you came to Shanyin half a year ago, right? No need to explain, if you have too many of you, we don't care where you came from! Who do you think you can get a registered residence in Shanyin? If you don't open it, do you still want to stay in Shanyin?"

Gu Zuo said: "But I don't have the ability of Taoist Master Wang."

Chen Liudao: "You have only been with him for half a year. If you can get the King of Daozhu, you will burn the incense! Just do it. Now most of the gymnasium in Shanyin has been swept away. If you can persist, it is an opportunity. Besides, your sixth brother, I will arrange work for you."

Gu Zuo wanted to say, I didn’t even have a single cent, where did I come from? But when the words came to my mouth, I retracted. If he didn’t even have a half cent, I would be really going to roll the bedding and get out of Shanyin.

Finally, Chen Liudao: "The old rules are the same. After the business starts, it will be the same every month. Jiang and I will go to collect it at the end of July."

Gu Zuo held the wooden sign ticket in his hand and watched Chen Liu walk out of the alley. He suddenly remembered and shouted: "Brother Six, can you borrow a few dollars? I'm missing half of my hand."

But when Chen Liu and Jiang Qili ignored it, they turned out with their shoulders.

Gu Zuo stuffed the card ticket into his arms and walked out of the alley. It felt really good to see the light of day again, but looking at the restaurants and restaurants on the street, he couldn't help but growl.

It was almost noon, and the restaurants of Zhuangyuan Building, Yingxiang Building, Liuji Meat Cake, Chengji Sanyang Soup were already full of guests. The store led the distinguished guests in the door.

The stall vendors also carried loads and pushed carts to park on the side of the road. The fragrance of selling sesame cakes and braised sausages and sponge cakes came, making Gu Zuo saliva constantly.

He stayed in the number room for three days. Although he was not too hungry, he could imagine what he had eaten. He was penniless at this moment and could only walk out of the city with his teeth and quickly left the city to find a way.

Fortunately, the bamboo cage he placed in the stream was undestroyed, and two big fish that were jumping around and three crabs were locked inside. Gu Zuo quickly put it away and rushed back to Xiaogu Mountain, setting up a fire and cooking the fish and crabs and filling the stomach.

However, without rice and flour, my stomach was always uncomfortable and uneasy. Gu Zuo looked at the little raccoon lying on his feet and licking the fish bones, and began to worry about the meal for the next half month.
