Chapter 42 Have you never seen the wanted criminal?
Facing this menacing punch, Zhao Jingzhong hurriedly turned sideways, narrowly avoiding it again and again.
Then Zhao Jingzhong's eyes flashed, his left hand pointed like a knife, passed around Lin Zhongtian's arm, and slashed hard towards the throat from bottom to top. At the same time, he raised his right hand to grab Lin Zhongtian's wrist, completely turning passivity into initiative.
But how could Lin Zhongtian let him get his wish.
Lin Zhongtian blocked Zhao Jingzhong's left elbow with his left hand, turned his right hand into a fist, and blocked Zhao Jingzhong's grasp. Then he grabbed the opponent's forearm with his backhand and pulled it towards his arms.
The terrifying power suddenly exploded, and Zhao Jingzhong was caught off guard and threw himself forward.
Lin Zhongtian bent his right leg slightly and kicked his knee hard from the side.
"Click——"
"ah!!!"
A crisp bone crack was heard along with a piercing scream.
Zhao Jingzhong's left leg was twisted out of shape, and his knee was shattered. The white broken bone penetrated the pink flesh and was exposed to the dusty air. Blood gushes out, adding a strong smell of blood to the whole room. .
With a plop, Zhao Jingzhong clutched his knees and fell to the ground, clenching his teeth. He endured the severe pain and raised his head, looking at the tall figure in front of him with disbelief.
He never expected that in just one round, one of his legs would be broken by the man in front of him.
The opponent was as fast as lightning and as powerful as a wild beast. He was a powerful enemy he had never encountered in his life.
Looking at Zhao Jingzhong lying on the ground, Lin Zhongtian was a little disappointed.
As he walked towards Zhao Jingzhong, he shook his head and said, "I really don't understand why some people compare you to Ding Xiu. In terms of martial arts, you are far behind Ding Xiu!"
"Wait...wait a minute..."
Looking at the tall figure slowly approaching in front of him, Zhao Jingzhong endured the severe pain and squeezed out these words from between his teeth. At the same time, he used his hands and feet to pupate backwards like a maggot. His forehead with exposed veins was full of pain. And the cold sweat oozed out.
At this time, he could no longer process the information contained in Lin Zhongtian's words, so he could only speak with his last bit of strength.
"Tell me first, who sent you to kill me, Wei Zhongxian? Don't believe that old guy. He has lost power now. I am the current admiral of Dongchang. No matter you want money, power or sex, I I can satisfy you, as long as you——"
Before he finished speaking, a pale bone claw touched Zhao Jingzhong's neck.
With a click, the words in Zhao Jingzhong's mouth stopped abruptly.
"It's still the same old rhetoric, can you be a little innovative?"
Looking into those unblinking eyes, Lin Zhongtian shook his head, straightened up in boredom, hummed a tune and turned away as if he had done something inconspicuous.
He has long disliked this dead eunuch!
Not to mention Zhao Jingzhong's sinister character and vicious methods, his treason and traitor behavior at the end of the movie alone was enough to make Lin Zhongtian sentence him to death in his heart.
Coincidentally, Lin Zhongtian saw him when he returned to Beijing, so he followed him quietly and followed him all the way to the wooden house. This was the scene that just happened.
After killing Zhao Jingzhong, Lin Zhongtian became happy.
But this happiness did not last long, because the capital was still full of wanted posters for him.
The people in the yamen were like crazy, searching for his traces all over the city, so that no matter he entered or left the city, he would turn on a white-eye-like perspective, wander around the blind spots of everyone's vision, and hide his figure in public. .
This method of 'invisibility' is not difficult for Lin Zhongtian today.
But this feeling of being like a rat crossing the street made him feel a little uncomfortable.
After returning to the capital, Lin Zhongtian did not rush to the secret house immediately. Instead, he went to the inn where he had stayed before. There were also his temporarily stored luggage and the gold and silver he had brought with him when he left the mountain.
After entering the guest room, Lin Zhongtian couldn't help but frown.
The guest room in front of me has become a mess.
The luggage is still there, but the gold and silver inside have disappeared.
Obviously, this guest room has not escaped the clutches of the gang of detectives.
This is very interesting...
Before checking into the inn, Lin Zhongtian inquired about the background of this inn.
It is said that it is the former crown prince's Taifu and the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and the current Prince Taibao and the Minister of the Ministry of War are the king's property in Jin.
This person was a Jinshi in the 20th year of Wanli. He served as a scholar, the governor of Jiangxi, the right deputy censor, and the minister of the Ministry of War. In March of the first year of Chongzhen, he was called to be the Minister of the Ministry of Justice. In April, he was called the Minister of the Ministry of Justice. Moved to the Ministry of War and served as Minister of the Ministry of War.
Although in another year he will be deregistered and return to his hometown due to something, but at this moment he is still a powerful figure in the capital, and he was once the immediate boss of the Yamen.
According to common sense, people in the yamen would not dare to be so presumptuous about the property under his control.
At least he didn't dare to take the money of the inn tenants openly while searching for key criminals.
But now, the people in the yamen are acting so unscrupulously, which shows that there must be someone behind them.
And this supporter is likely to be a more powerful figure than Wang Zaijin - Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youjian.
He is the only person in the world who cares most about Zhao Lihe's escape from prison.
"Chongzhen, Chongzhen, you are still anxious after all..."
With a smile on his face, Lin Zhongtian turned towards his luggage, changed out of his blood-stained clothes, put on a bamboo hat, and Shi Shiran left the inn through the main entrance.
When he came to the street, Lin Zhongtian's outfit clearly showed that he was a ghost, which alerted the policeman who was secretly watching him, so he quietly got up and followed him.
After turning a few streets, there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road, but more and more secret whistles were following Lin Zhongtian.
At this moment, Lin Zhongtian suddenly quickened his pace and disappeared around the corner in front.
The policeman who was following him in secret did not care about being exposed and hurriedly chased after him.
By the time they crossed the corner, Lin Zhongtian's figure had already disappeared.
The furious secret sentries could only stay there and rage. After calming down, they discussed it and decided to send two people back to the Yamen to report the news, while the remaining soldiers split up to search for traces of the suspect just now.
At the same time, Lin Zhongtian had already arrived at the street, and while everyone was looking elsewhere, he climbed over the roadside courtyard wall, then stepped on the attic wall in the courtyard, and quietly climbed through the second floor window.
After entering the attic, Lin Zhongtian closed the window and turned to look at the house.
I saw a few orange warm lamps hanging in this house, with a desk across the middle, on which were placed the four luxurious treasures of the study and a copper incense burner exuding musk.
In front of the desk is a brocade couch embroidered with plum blossoms, on which two people, one large and one small, are lying.
The older one was a fat official who had stripped down to a white coat.
The youngest one was a girl who looked to be no more than twelve or thirteen years old.
At this moment, when they saw someone climbing into the room from the window, the old and the young couldn't help but froze there.
Lin Zhongtian glanced at the red official uniforms and black official hats thrown carelessly beside the brocade couch, and said angrily.
"What are you looking at? Have you never seen a wanted criminal from the government?"
"you……"
The fat official was horrified. Just as he was about to stand up and exclaim, he saw a fist enlarging in front of his eyes.
Hearing a bang, the fat official rolled his eyes and fainted completely.
"Bah! Fuck, can you do this to an eleven or twelve-year-old girl?"
Lin Zhongtian spat and kicked the unconscious fat body off the couch with his feet.
Then he raised his head and looked at the girl who was curled up and shivering on the bed. He put a finger in front of his lips, and a kind smile appeared on his handsome face.
"Shhh - don't make a sound"
"Otherwise, I can only make you become like him..."
