Chapter 53: The grumpy night pot girl
Are you again?
This person knows Ning Wuze? Judging from Ning Wuze's performance, the relationship between the two is quite bad.
The man in black got into the carriage under the gaze of others, with a natural smile on his face, and instructed Qin Yan, who was driving the carriage in front: "Qin Zhutou, you can go, I have offended a lot before." β
The man in black squeezed into the carriage and saluted Liu Yingyi very respectfully, "Lord Liu." β
Then, sitting down with his back against the carriage, his eyes looked at Ning Wuze, who was staring at him fiercely, took out a bottle of medicine from his arms, and threw it to Ning Wuze: "Here you go, your injury needs a quick dressing to stop the bleeding." β
"Hmph, no need, someone bandaged it for me." Ning Wuze's words were almost viciously squeezed out from between his teeth.
However, having said that, Ning Wuze still unceremoniously stuffed the bottle of medicine into his sleeve.
The expression on that face was clear, hum, don't take it for nothing.
Taking advantage of this gap, Shui Qingxiang took a closer look at the man, who was about forty years old, with deep crow's feet at the corners of his face, and he looked very ordinary, but the eyes were thin and long, and the small eyeballs were staying on Shui Qingxiang's body for a moment.
"Who is this girl?"
"In the water Qingxiang, I came to handle the case with Lord Liu."
"Catch fast?"
"The future of catching fast."
"Oh......" The man in black said this, and deliberately glanced at Liu Yingyi, who neither said yes nor said no, and rested with his eyes closed, as if everything in the carriage had nothing to do with him.
"Miss Liu knows kung fu, right?" The man in black asked tentatively.
Shui Qingxiang replied modestly: "I understand a little." β
The man took out a bronze ring from his bosom, "When we meet for the first time, we don't wear anything good, so let's give this to the girl." β
Shui Qingxiang didn't want to take it, but the man in black politely put the ring in the palm of his hand, and then stretched out his hand in front of the girl.
Out of curiosity, Shui Qingxiang took it and took a look.
It was a ring with a strange pattern engraved on it, with different shapes and bumps, and the ring was a bit large, not like a normal ring worn on the ring finger.
"Girl, be careful, this ring is a secret weapon. Usually you only need to wear it on a large ring, and if necessary, press the raised pattern on it tightly, and there will be spikes coming out; Press the recessed pattern, and smoke will shoot out. Although it cannot be fatal, it can retreat from the enemy. β
That's really a well-designed secret weapon.
"This ring is so valuable, how dare I accept such a valuable gift if I am not related to my lord." Shui Qingxiang took advantage of this to shirk.
The man in black did not retract his hand, "The water girl is polite, once she is born, and she is familiar twice." My name is Wei Cang, and I am an acquaintance of Lord Liu and Lord Ning, and Lord Liu's friends are also my friends. β
Shui Qingxiang hesitated and didn't dare to take it, first look at the reactions of the two people around her, and then judge whether this Wei Cang is friend or foe.
Ning Wuze heard Wei Cang's words and snorted disdainfully, Shui Qingxiang seriously suspected that the person who hurt Ning Wuze just now was this Wei Cang.
Liu Yingyi continued to close his eyes, and the old god continued to recuperate, but just now Wei Cang heard the matter of sending Shui Qingxiang a secret weapon, and said quietly: "Since it is a secret weapon for a woman, just accept it, it's good to have one more thing for self-defense." β
As soon as Shui Qingxiang heard this, she accepted the ring.
Wei Cang smiled at Shui Qingxiang, and then took out two stone walnuts from his arms, rolling them in his hands, and also followed Liu Yingyi's example, squinting his eyes and closing his eyes to recuperate.
Shui Qingxiang looked at the two stone walnuts, about the size of two eggs, as if they were made of special metal, and they were heavy in Wei Cang's hands.
Looking at Wei Cang again, he looked a little strange holding the stone walnut, turning it ten times to the left and ten times to the right, not like he was playing, but like he was practicing his strength.
After observing for a while, Shui Qingxiang had a guess in her heart, this stone walnut must be the same as that ring, it is not an ordinary thing, and this Wei Cang must be not weak in kung fu. This guy is really a "Doraemon", why do you hide so many good things on your body.
The atmosphere inside the carriage became a little strange because of Wei Cang's arrival, Liu Yingyi and Wei Cang were both closing their eyes to recuperate, while Ning Wu stared at Wei Cang's bulging eyes, and Shui Qingxiang didn't know what to say in the carriage.
Three men and one woman huddled in the carriage and didn't speak, inexplicably feeling suffocating.
Fortunately, when he was still a few miles away from Dongzi County, Wei Cang suddenly got out of the carriage.
"Everyone, the mountains and rivers have met."
The black figure jumped out of the carriage and soon disappeared into the woods by the roadside.
"Lord Liu, he'......"
"Leave him alone." Liu Yingyi finally opened his eyes and said disapprerovingly.
Ning Wuze was so angry that he couldn't do it, and he didn't know where he and Wei Cang had such a big enmity, "Water girl, if you see this person far away in the future, don't talk to him, and don't use what he gave you." β
"Why?" Shui Qingxiang felt that the ring was very strange, and was about to study it carefully when no one was around.
"Hmph, this person is unlucky."
Ning Wuze's words sound a little strange, saying 'unlucky' generally doesn't mean something, how can people be unlucky?
Shui Qingxiang didn't study it carefully, taking advantage of the fact that it was not too far from Dongzi County, Shui Qingxiang asked: "Lord Liu, following the adult for so long, following the adult to solve two cases in a row, what do the adults think of Shui Qingxiang's work ability?" β
"Okay." Concise and to the point, with only two words, Liu Yingyi is always incomprehensible.
"Then when I return to Dongzi County, will I be able to be a fast catcher?" This is what Mizuharuka wants to know the most.
Unexpectedly, Liu Yingyi replied lightly: "There has been no vacancy in the yamen recently, and there has been no precedent for women to be quick catchers since ancient times......"
Ning Wuze also interjected, "Water girl, this woman can assist in handling cases, but there is no precedent for being an official errand, and we are one of the few female officials in the court, but they are all on errands in the harem." β
"Hmph, it turns out that Lord Liu has never had the idea of hiring me, so why play me around and take me to handle cases every day? Isn't it just teasing me? Shui Qing asked fragrantly.
Liu Yingyi didn't speak, Ning Wuze also pretended to be dead, and the two big men didn't answer Shui Qingxiang's questioning, which made Shui Qingxiang even more angry.
"Okay, I'm a fool to accompany you to investigate the case every day, since Lord Liu doesn't look down on me, just park here, it's not far from Dongzi County, I can go back myself!"
"Phewβ"
The carriage actually stopped at this time, and it turned out that Qin Zhutou had been listening with his ears outside the carriage, especially when he heard the words "Yamen Catch Fast".
Shui Qingxiang jumped out of the carriage angrily, and also felt Wei Cang's appearance, and walked back to Dongzi County by herself.
