Back in Sancai Xiangtang, Xie Ping immediately asked Zhang Wu to meet him, and he had to learn more about some situations.

When Zhang Wu came to the incense hall, Xie Ping raised his hand and gave him two slaps, and then scolded: "Waste, things are messed up!" ”

Zhang Wu knew that he was at a loss, and he didn't dare to distinguish himself at this time, so he could only stand aside with his head down.

Knowing that scolding was useless to solve the problem, Xie Ping asked Zhang Wu to explain the matter in detail, hoping to find something greasy in it.

After listening, Xie Ping said directly: "Where are Gao Yong and Wang Sanxiang, bring them together!" ”

Zhang Wu swallowed his saliva, and then said, "Big brother, these two people have disappeared since the accident the day before yesterday!" ”

Xie Ping couldn't help but be angry, and then said angrily: "Then why don't you hurry up and find it!" ”

Under Xie Ping's roar, Zhang Wu's back was cold, and he said stiffly: "Big brother, I went to their house just now, but I didn't see anyone...... Discover ......"

"What did you find?" Xie Ping asked.

Zhang Wu replied: "I found traces of a fight, and there was blood on the ground...... So I'm guessing that both of them might be dead! ”

Xie Ping couldn't help but sit down in his chair, he felt a black fog coming towards him in front of him, and he couldn't understand the way things were going at all.

"You go first...... Remember, this matter must not be brought up to anyone, including your family! Xie Ping said helplessly.

Zhang Wu nodded again and again and replied, "Don't worry, big brother, I will be tight-lipped!"

Just as he was about to leave, Xie Ping stopped him again and said, "Also, from now on, don't drink anymore, it's easy to make mistakes!" ”

Zhang Wu dared to say no, and then left at Xie Ping's signal.

But what Zhang Wu didn't know was that Xie Ping's eyes when he looked at him at this time were already full of killing intent.

Xie Ping could probably deduce that the two high-level people who were in direct contact with the White Lotus Sect should have known what they shouldn't know before they were killed.

And for him, Zhang Wu also knew too much, which made it difficult for him to sleep.

But now is not the time to kill, at least after avoiding this limelight, Zhang Wu will die unexpectedly.

Putting aside these thoughts, Xie Ping is now facing another pressure, that is, Chen Xiaoting's step-by-step pressing.

Chen Xiaoting framed him for having something to do with the White Lotus Sect before, but now that such an incident has happened, it seems very fatal.

Although Zhang Zhenshan has not taken any action against him for the time being after arraigning him today, his suspicions have certainly not been completely dispelled.

If Chen Xiaoting was making trouble at this time, it would really kill Xie Ping.

This is a situation that must be avoided, so seeking reconciliation from Chen Xiaoting has become the only option.

Originally, he wanted to kill Chen Xiaoting, but he didn't expect that the surname Chen's life would be big, and this operation made him fall into a Jedi.

…………

After a busy day of work in the Yamen of 100 households, there was basically no progress in the case as yesterday, and after saying goodbye to a group of colleagues, Chen Xiaoting left the Yamen and went home.

As the main planner of this incident, Chen Xiaoting knew very well that it was difficult to find out what happened to Wang Youtian's case, because the insiders were all dead.

Unless the hundred households yamen can catch the killer of the White Lotus Sect, this is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.

Moreover, even if the killer of the White Lotus Sect is caught, only the three talents will be involved, and Chen Xiaoting, the person behind the scenes, is just as difficult to expose.

Back at home, probably affected by the wind in the city, the atmosphere at home is also very solemn.

Even Chen Xiaoyu, who was lively in the past, stayed in the room honestly at this time, working as a female worker with her mother Gao Erniang.

"It's back!" In the courtyard, Chen Dayong, who was sharpening his knife, turned around and said.

Because the saber has been handed in, Chen Dayong is now sharpening a firewood knife, and Chen Xiaoting is inexplicable.

So he asked, "Dad, what are you grinding it for?" Do you have to go out of the city to chop wood? ”

Maybe he was tired of grinding, Chen Dayong dropped the firewood knife and sat on the chair next to him before he said: "The city has not been peaceful recently, and if you sharpen the knife, you can be regarded as a guy!" ”

Chen Xiaoting smiled when he heard this, then took off his saber and said, "Then you take this, it's much better than your chai knife!" ”

Seeing that Chen Xiaoting was not in shape, Chen Dayong immediately scolded: "You bastard, your father and I have been making this knife for decades, what are you angry about now?" ”

The old guy was really angry, Chen Xiaoting didn't dare to stimulate him anymore, so he calmed the old man with kind words.

"Still staying up with the triad? It's okay, Wang Youtian, the bastard, is dead, and no one forces you, just consume it! Chen Dayong said to himself.

Chen Xiaoting smiled, and then said seriously: "Dad, I won't stay up, or in two days, someone will come to beg me!" ”

"Please? You really don't know what kind of power the three talents have? Will bow to you? Chen Dayong said with a mocking face.

Chen Xiaoting was still smiling, and at the same time said solemnly: "Maybe they won't be able to hold it now!" ”

Chen Dayong didn't answer again, but continued to sharpen the knife, leaving Chen Xiaoting to dry in place.

But at this moment, there was a sound of footsteps in the alley, and finally stopped outside the courtyard of the Chen family.

Knock knock knock...... Three knocks rang out at the door.

"Is the second child back?" Chen Dayong stopped what he was doing and said.

With so many footsteps, there must be more than one person outside, Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "It's not the second child!" ”

Holding the handle of the knife with one hand, Chen Xiaoting shouted at the same time: "Who? ”

I heard a voice outside: "Captain Chen, I'm Xie Ping, I took the liberty to visit today, please forgive me!" ”

Knowing that it was Xie Ping who came, Chen Xiaoting was not worried, and even a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, because he had guessed the purpose of the other party's visit.

Walking to the gate of the courtyard, Chen Xiaoting opened the door as soon as possible, and saw more than a dozen people outside, led by Xie Ping.

"Thank you, what are you doing here?" At this time, Chen Dayong came behind Chen Xiaoting with a firewood knife.

Xie Ping put away all his prestige at this time, and was as peaceful as an ordinary vendor on the street, and said very politely: "I came to talk to Captain Chen about the money on Xining Street, I was offended a few days ago, and now I just want to eliminate the misunderstanding!" ”

Hearing this, Chen Xiaoting couldn't help but look back and said, "Dad, I'll just say it...... They will come to the door on their own initiative! ”

Then, Chen Xiaoting put away the appearance of Jiao'er Lang, and said to Xie Ping in a deep voice: "You come in alone!" ”

Without talking much about the conditions, Xie Ping directly entered the courtyard of the Chen family alone, and then the courtyard door was closed by Chen Xiaoting.

In the courtyard, the three of them sat on two chairs, and the scene was a little cold for a while.

Chen Xiaoting and Xie Ping are both waiting for the other party to speak first, and whoever speaks first will be passive.

Chen Dayong couldn't help much, so he could only watch in the middle, and he had never experienced this level of struggle before.

Of course, Chen Xiaoting was not panicked at all, Xie Ping had already taken the initiative to come to the door, and it seemed ridiculous to hold on at this time.

In the end, it was Xie Ping who spoke first: "Captain Chen, I can agree to the conditions you mentioned earlier!" ”

Saying this, Xie Ping finally crossed the hurdle in his heart, and the whole person was much more relaxed.

I heard him continue: "Every month in Xining Street, I am willing to hand over one hundred taels of silver for filial piety, and do not cut other money!" ”

Saying this, Xie Ping looked at Chen Xiaoting, he was waiting for Chen Xiaoting to make a statement.

Chen Dayong, who was caught in the middle, was shocked at this time, he couldn't understand how King Xie Yan, who was a member of the three talents, could bow his head to his son.

At this time, Chen Dayong also had to sigh that he was really old, and he couldn't understand many things.

Who knows, at this time, Chen Xiaoting grinned and said: "One hundred taels of silver per month, but this first month costs two hundred taels ......."

"The extra one hundred taels is my hard work!"

The corners of Xie Ping's mouth couldn't help twitching, what kind of hard work costs a hundred taels of silver, this is a naked robbery while the fire is burning.

But Xie Ping could only smash his teeth and swallow in his stomach, and now he had to appease Chen Xiaoting.

Fortunately, it is not two hundred taels per month, Xie Ping can still bear the extra one hundred taels, and it is a big deal to pay this part from his own account.

Then, under Chen Dayong's stunned gaze, Xie Ping said kindly: "One hundred taels of hard work, it should be!" ”
