Chapter 56: Chinese New Year's Eve (III)
Although he has been refining his body for a long time, Xu Chen's body shape has not changed too significantly, but his muscles have become more symmetrical and stronger, and now in winter, wearing a robe, he looks like an ordinary scholar on the surface.
At this moment, a number of scholars who came with Xiang Wentian were crowded, and they would not be afraid of the young man in front of him who did not look very strong.
"What, do you want to avenge him?" Xu Chen looked at everyone calmly.
"How can this be reasonable! After hurting someone, he has no remorse, everyone, we will definitely send this person to the official to be brought to justice!" The first one looked at him angrily, but he did not dare to come forward.
"Yes! At the feet of the Son of Heaven, he must be told to see the ruthlessness of the law of the country!"
……
Looking at the chattering crowd, Xu Chen suddenly laughed: "You guys...... Haven't you seen me?"
The smile seemed to be kind, but those who had seen Xu Chen stepped back involuntarily.
This smile reminded them of the lingering blood red......
The subtle movements on both sides of him failed to attract the attention of the angry people, and seeing that the perpetrators were still so arrogant, the anger in the chests of these young or no longer young students gradually began to overcome the fear of Xu Chenbiao's fierce behavior.
And the people were bold...... or the smell of alcohol, and began to force Xu Chen.
The two teenagers behind Xu Chen slowly leaned in.
Wang Lin, who was in the rear, hurriedly asked the maid to help her step forward.
"Everyone, slow down!" Wang Lin stood between the two sides, and said to the angry student with apologies: "This matter is all caused by me, Brother Xu is also acting for me, I will bear the medical expenses of Xiang Gongzi, and I hope you can look at the face of the Taiyuan Wang family and don't be angry, I owe you a favor!"
It's not a thousand-year-old family, even if he apologizes, he is so domineering and awe-inspiring, with a strong arrogance, coercion and temptation, the favor of the daughter of the Taiyuan Wang family is obviously much more useful than the friendship established by these people in a hurry.
Sure enough, as soon as Wang Lin said this, the angry student on the opposite side suddenly stopped talking, although there was no one who answered immediately, but his eyes began to turn, flashing with the light of thinking.
Seeing this, Wang Lin breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and was about to turn around to look at Xu Chen.
Unexpectedly, a scream resounded through the hall!
Li ...... Brother Li!ah...... Plum...... Brother Li, Brother Li, he ...... He's dead!"
Just as a silver bottle exploded, a boulder fell into the water, and the hall that had just calmed down was instantly filled with footsteps and screams.
"What's going on?" Ruan Wenhao, who had been watching Xu Chen's conflict here, was startled by this sudden scream at this moment.
"Nguyen...... Brother Ruan!" The screaming man sat on the ground, grabbed Ruan Wenhao's sleeve at this moment, and pointed at the man surnamed Li who was lying on the ground face down with one hand trembling, and his voice was indescribably flustered: "Li ...... Brother Li, he's dead! No ...... It's out of gas!"
Ruan Wenhao hurriedly ran forward, stretched out his hand and turned the head of the man surnamed Li over, suddenly startled!
saw blood flowing from the mouth and nose of the man surnamed Li, his eyes were round, his eyes were bulging, and there was crystal saliva at the corners of his mouth.
Stretched out his hand and probed into his nostrils, but he couldn't feel the slightest breath, he was really out of breath!
Seeing the stunned expression on Ruan Wenhao's face, the people who were in doubt immediately took a deep breath, and their bodies couldn't help but retreat back, and in an instant, a blank circle appeared around Ruan Wenhao and the man surnamed Li who fell to the ground.
In the hall, there was a quick opportunity to walk towards the door at this moment, ready to get away from this place as soon as possible.
However, before they could get close to the door, a group of fishers in soap clothes came quickly outside the restaurant.
"Stop me!" The man thought that he was a headcatcher, and as soon as he entered the door of the restaurant, he stood across the knife and shouted: "There has been a murder here, and no one is allowed to leave everyone present! Otherwise, all of them will be punished as fugitives!"
The two rows of catchers trotted all the way, and in just a moment, the hall of the restaurant was surrounded by water, and another team of people rushed to the second floor of the restaurant.
Xu Chen was only slightly stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "! Don't you want to do this! I'm afraid that others won't know that you have rehearsed!"
"Big brother, this ......" A young man next to him leaned over.
"I don't want to get involved in the here, let's go ours, I want to see who dares to stop it!"
As he spoke, he led the two teenagers straight towards the gate.
"Stop!" Immediately a catcher rushed over and shouted, "What about you! You are deaf! You want to run if you say you are not allowed to go......?"
"Hiss......"
When Xu Chen turned around, Na Zhukuai's eyes suddenly widened, and a breath of cool air almost made him turn his back on his breath.
"What did you say?" Xu Chen looked at him and sneered: "Do you want to say, did I kill the person?"
The catcher suddenly sweated like rain, and his strong legs began to tremble under this gaze.
"Hehe, do you think I'll kill someone?" Xu Chen still stared at him.
Caught up and hurriedly lowered his head, shook his head desperately, and muttered in his mouth, but he couldn't say a word clearly.
The head catcher looked over, his brow furrowed, and his anger grew, and he walked over, but a leather whip was raised in his hand.
When he was about to whip the whip, Xu Chen turned his head, the expression on the face of the head catcher was not much different from that catcher, the only thing was that the raised hand didn't dare to let go anymore.
"Wu Zhutou, the backyard has been blocked, and no one has left!"
At this moment, from the backyard of the restaurant, came a soapy coat of fisherman, the color of the chest is different from the ordinary catcher, the style is somewhat similar to this whip catcher, but the color is much lighter.
"It's you!" the man walked over to Xu Chen's side, turned his head to look at it, and then let out a surprised voice.
Xu Chen turned his head to look at him and laughed: "It seems that Chang Hongzhao's ability is indeed not small!"
"Brother Hai, don't come unharmed!"
"Hehe, thanks to the blessing of Gongzi, Haifeng is still alive!" Haifeng replied with a straight face.
"Haha, Brother Hai, this is not right! Ling Tang is still temporarily living in the mansion, Brother Hai is so indifferent, isn't it chilling?"
"Hmph! Thank you Xu Gongzi for taking care of my mother these days, I have asked someone to find a house, and I will come to pick up my mother as soon as I settle down!"
"So, Brother Hai is the first day to go to the Yamen?" Xu Chen looked at Haifeng and smiled playfully.
"So what?" Haifeng's eyes froze.
"Haha, yes, but you have to be careful, don't let people be used as guns!" Xu Chen turned his gaze to the catcher who was still holding the long whip high and glanced at it a few times.
Haifeng frowned slightly, thinking about it in his heart.
Since arriving in Chang'an, Haifeng did not enter the city with Xu Chen and others, but took a detour to Pingliang, and after handing over Lu Wen, he quickly returned to Chang'an, and was about to pick up his mother, but he was stopped by a group of catchers as soon as he arrived at the city gate.
Naturally, it is not an arrest, but it is a good thing.
Haifeng was transferred from the head catcher of Jiaxing County to the deputy head catcher of Wannian County, although his position was reduced by half a level, but this son of heaven is not comparable to the poor countryside of Jiaxing.
It is said to be a happy thing, but as soon as he arrived in Chang'an, he rushed to the Yamen Office to hand over, and when he arrived at the Yamen, he didn't drink a sip of water, and he heard about the murder case.
Hearing Xu Chen's words, all the doubts that had already been born in his heart suddenly broke out, his brows furrowed, and he looked at the head catcher surnamed Wu.
"I don't have time to care about your!" Xu Chen scolded impatiently: "Get out of the way!"
The long whip of the head catcher surnamed Wu held high, his brows were tightly locked, his teeth were gritted, and his face was entangled.
Xu Chen's appearance surprised him very much, the ferocity shown by this weak-looking young man that day made the martial arts head who prided himself accustomed to seeing wind and waves feel cold, and even after returning home, he didn't sleep for several days, and when he closed his eyes, he was deeply blood-red......
But what is the matter of the day, what I have been commanded......
The teeth rattled, and finally, Wu Zhutou put down the long whip in his hand, but raised his head.
Stared at Xu Chen viciously, as if he could be fearless in this way, and gritted his teeth and said, "You can't go!"
Xu Chen's eyes narrowed slightly: "Are you sure?"
Like a fried cat, Wu Zhutou retreated suddenly, raised his hand to draw his knife, and shouted loudly: "Yamen handles the case, there are those who do not comply, kill!"
There was obvious hesitation on the faces of the two rows of fast catchers, but after all, they gritted their teeth and pulled out the knife, their eyes widened, and they stared at Xu Chen viciously.
These people had all been to Mingdemen that day, and had seen Xu Chen's madness, and at this moment they had a fierce face, as if they could frighten him......
"Oh, yes, yes, I'm going to see if you have what it takes!"
"Don't be afraid, everyone! This is Chang'an! We are from the Yamen, and he doesn't dare to kill him!"
The use of "killing" is not "moving", because Wu Zhutou knows very well that a person who doesn't even care about the Longyou Qi family will not care about their small group of catchers.
However, it is precisely because of this skin on his body that even the miserable end of the Qi family may not be there, at most he will be injured, as long as he can't die, it will be worth it.
Xu Chen's brows also furrowed at this time, these fast attitudes are so strong!
Who planned this drama and who was it aimed at?
I obviously walked into this restaurant on a temporary basis, and there is more than this restaurant nearby, how did the people behind the scenes make precise arrangements?
Xu Chen didn't dare to completely eliminate the possibility of someone targeting himself at this moment, but just like what this head catcher surnamed Wu said, at this moment, he really couldn't kill the general like this.
Because, it's not worth it!
A few lackeys, naturally it's not worth it!
Wang Lin, who had been watching from the side, saw that Xu Chen was silent, so he walked over with the support of the maidservant.
"Brother Xu, if there is a murder case, the yamen will investigate it again, so we might as well ...... It's better to ......"
Before he could finish his sentence, Wang Lin suddenly felt that his eyes were dark again, and the mind that he had just held on could no longer support it at this moment.
The body fell limp......
"Miss!"
"Damn! What the hell, why do you pour it on me!"
