Chapter 111 Searching for people overnight
It is ten meters long from east to west and eight meters wide from north to south.
In the middle is the public case for handling cases, on which there is a sign holder, and on the printing frame next to it, there is a printing pad and a seal box containing the seal, and the two red and black inkstones in front of the astonishing wood are filled with ink, and a young official is cleaning up the brush on the pen stand.
In front of the hall on the east side, there are a few regular clothes hanging on a one-person-high wooden tray, and on the weapon rack next to it are placed a slip of old and new simple knives and many missing steel knives, and at the end is a big gun that has lost its red tassels, standing upright on the ground, and the head of the gun is faintly glowing red.
The two of them entered the hall, Zhao Zhutou looked around and saw that there was no one, and listened to the sound of quarrels coming from the wooden pavilion in the west, so he let the dog stand aside obediently, and went inside with a knife.
Listening to several greetings coming from inside, one of which seemed to belong to Liu Sanlang, the dog looked up curiously, and sure enough, he saw a book under his arm and walked out angrily.
Zhao Zhutou and a red-faced man in the back, the two of them said as they walked, and when they saw that they were in front of them, the dog hurriedly hugged his fists and bowed.
Zhao Zhutou pointed to the dog and said to the man: "Master Yao, this kid can come up with some strange methods for you from time to time!" ”
After speaking, he shouted at the dog: "What are you doing stupidly! Don't come to see the ceremony! ”
The dog hurriedly hugged his fist and bowed deeply: "Boy Zhao Dagou, I've seen Master Yao!" ”
"Good, good!" Master Yao smiled and said: "He is not very old, but his reputation is loud, and the whole city knows that there is such a person, hahaha!" ”
The red face is even more ruddy when he smiles.
The dog hurriedly smiled and said, "Master Yao has won the prize, and the head is all barked by people outside, and he can't count them!" After saying that, he waved his hand again.
Master Yao stroked the short beard on his chin and said with a smile: "A good and polite baby" turned his head and asked Zhao Zhutou: "Is this the mage that this baby is looking for?" ”
Zhao Zhutou nodded hurriedly, and was about to say when he heard a sound of salute at the door, and several people turned to the door.
"Is the little one here?"
Before the people entered, the sound came first, and I listened to Liu Sanlang on the side replied in a dissatisfied voice: "Here, a group of little children learn those two or three words, and they also take a teaching test, it's purely idle, if you hadn't stopped me, I would have sent someone to bring him over!" ”
"Eh, how can you say that, teaching literacy has to be done with heart, the peasant woman raises an old hen, and the next day she has to see if there are any chickens in the nest, let alone teaching students! He has been teaching a group of babies for almost a month, and he has to see how much he has learned. By the way, what's the name of this baby? ”
Liu Sanlang said: "Zhao Dagou, nicknamed dog!" ”
"This dog is very interesting, a seed of teaching, much better than those pedantic old pedants!"
With the voice, a middle-aged man walked in at the gate, walking with a tigerish style, accompanied by a tall body, there was a sense of oppression, and several people in the hall hurriedly bowed down to greet him.
County Lieutenant Liu waved his hand with a smile and let everyone get up, then turned his head sideways to the dog and said, "You are a dog, right?" ”
The dog hurriedly clenched his fists and nodded.
"Okay, good, the little baby is really good!" While speaking, County Lieutenant Liu turned around and walked to the back of the public case.
Possessed and sat down, he said with a serious face: "Today's Youchuan City, the demon wind is raging, the people are panicking, the people have no intention of producing, the merchants have no intention of opening the market, from the east city to the west city, there is not even a figure on the street, it can't go on like this, everyone, but there is any way to talk to me about it!" ”
A few people in the hall, you look at me, I look at you, no one is willing to say a word, and the dog looks strange from behind.
Except for the undulating breathing of everyone, there was no sound in the room, and I was wondering there, listening to the sound of "pop", I shuddered, and when I peeked at it, I saw Liu County Lieutenant behind the table glaring at everyone angrily:
"Say, I usually pat my chest one by one, and the cowhide I brag about is in the sky, and it's really useless, and it's like a gourd with a stuffy mouth, and I can't let out a fart!"
Listening to the angry voice of the county lieutenant Liu above, the dog was embarrassed, he was a little baby from outside, looking at Liu Sanlang, Zhao Zhutou was scolded, he didn't want to stay here for a moment, and he was thinking about how to survive this embarrassing moment, when suddenly a strong force came from behind, and the dog took two steps forward uncontrollably.
County Lieutenant Liu, who was originally angry at everyone behind the public case, instantly changed his bright smile, and several people in the hall also looked at the dog with a relieved face.
Dogs: ......
"Puppy, what do you want to tell me?"
The dog originally wanted to shake his head, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw Zhao Zhutou clenching his fists tightly.
He quickly nodded and said, "Boy, there are a few small thoughts I want to say to you, well, the county lieutenant listens!" ”
Liu County Lieutenant waved his hand with a smile and said: "What kind of minister, don't scream nonsense, let people listen to it and make fun of it, hahaha, come on, come on, if you have any ideas, just say it boldly, whether it's right or not, it's not wrong for you!" ”
The dog turned his head to look at it, and saw Zhao Zhutou nodding with a look of encouragement, which was completely understood.
I understand, and I began to complain in my heart, and we all talked about it, as for playing this heart, I know that a group of ghosts and weird things are not good to speak out, and I deliberately said it through my own mouth, but there is no outsider in this house, isn't it too tired to hide it?
Since you want to let yourself be a gun, then you know everything, say everything, obediently be this gun, and go home early to sleep!
cough, the dog coughed lightly and hugged his fists and saluted everyone: "County lieutenant, the kid heard that this ghost and demon matter, when there is a special ghost hunter to deal with it, the people in the city are panicking, then let's invite a mage to do a magic thing, comfort and comfort the big guy!" ”
"Okay, what a comfort!" County Lieutenant Liu made another sound, which made the dog's heart jump suddenly, and he rolled his eyes secretly, I really couldn't understand what kind of shocking wood he always filmed for no reason.
With the opening of County Lieutenant Liu, everyone in the hall also stretched out their thumbs and praised the dog's intelligence and wit!
The dog also hurriedly pretended to be a good child, smiled shyly with everyone, and listened to the county lieutenant Liu in front of the hall said gently: "I didn't believe in this ghost or something, but you made this request on behalf of the people of the city, if the official does not accept it, it will be rigid and ruthless."
"Usually, not only do you have to be busy with official business, but you also have to beware of people who have a heart to sue behind your back, saying that I am not close to people's feelings, ignoring public opinion, so like this, then listen to the elementary school, and do a legal thing to reassure the people!"
Everyone in the hall hugged their fists in unison and said: "The county lieutenant is benevolent and righteous, I am so admired, how dare I disobey!" ”
County Lieutenant Liu smiled and waved his hand to stop everyone and said: "Since you are doing things, then you have to invite a person who is virtuous, and this person is ...... candidate."
Halfway through speaking, he looked at everyone, walked around, and then stared at the dog and said, "Dog, do you have any good people to recommend to me?" ”
The dog shook his head, listened to a cough behind him, turned his head to look, and saw Zhao Zhutou sneering: "I just ate a little salty!" ”
"The rice bucket knows how to eat!" Liu County Lieutenant scolded with a smile: "Dog, it's okay, you can rest assured that there is anyone, and if you have any requirements, you can boldly mention it, as long as people can come tonight, we can discuss what conditions." ”
Coming tonight? Oh, by the way, we're going to do it tomorrow! Isn't that in a hurry?
However, I don't know if the bald donkey is still in the small temple?
Looking up and seeing everyone looking at him expectantly, the dog sighed and said, "Back to the county lieutenant, the person I want to talk about is a great monk!" ”
"Great monk?" Liu County Lieutenant was stunned for a moment and turned his head to look at Liu Sanlang, Liu Sanlang shook his head and went to see Zhao Zhutou.
Zhao Zhutou hurriedly walked over and whispered a few words to him, and saw Liu Sanlang shaking his head at County Lieutenant Liu.
"Ahem, dog, what is the origin of this great monk?" County Lieutenant Liu asked with a frown.
I don't know what they are doing with the gods, the dog had to reply honestly: "It is a walking monk who walks in all directions, came to our village last year, happened to live in a sudden illness, lived in my house at that time, my mother is a good Buddha, boiled a good medicinal soup every day to treat him, lived for more than a month, this bald donkey, well, the great monk, also refused to go, every day with a broken bowl in the village everywhere to beg for money, but also deceived me to save several years of New Year's money, two months in the village to build a small blue brick temple. ”
"It turned out to be a footman!" County Lieutenant Liu sighed with a reluctant expression, "I don't know what the Master Master's Dharma call is for?" ”
The dog lowered his head and thought for a while, "What does it seem to be called, idiot!" ”
"Idiot?" A group of people lowered their heads and thought hard, and after thinking for a long time, they shook their heads again to indicate that they had not heard of it.
"Well, dog, do you know where the man was a monk?"
The dog said happily: "Tank Temple!" ”
A group of people shook their heads in unison, such a local name, it was not a big temple when I heard it, and County Lieutenant Liu behind the desk was completely deflated.
"This and this, puppy, is there anyone else?"
The dog shook his head neatly, it was dark outside, and his stomach was already hungry and uncomfortable, and he didn't care about it, he didn't care about it, he had no patience to spend here, and he just wanted to finish it quickly and go home.
"What about you?" County Lieutenant Liu asked the others.
Several people shook their heads randomly, and Liu Sanlang on the side said: "Those who are far away can come, but they can't catch up with the time chosen tomorrow!" ”
County Lieutenant Liu sighed and said to Zhao Zhutou: "You have been here in Youchuan for many years, and there is no one else?" ”
Zhao Zhutou replied dejectedly: "I have searched for many times in and outside the city, and there are only a few famous ones, I don't know what's going on, either I hurt the wind and cold, or I accidentally injured my arm, and there is a sloppy leg that can't stand up straight!" ”
After saying a word, he said in a whisper: "I still know a few mothers-in-law who dance big gods, or ......."
County Lieutenant Liu pouted, "It's better to be a monk!" ”
Seeing a group of people staring at each other in a daze, the dog said a little bit, secretly tugged at Zhao Zhutou's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Brother Zhao, are you okay?" Let's go, I'm almost hungry! ”
Zhao Zhutou smiled and said, "Go? If you can't find this person, don't come up with this yamen tonight! ”
The dog regretted: "If I knew this, I wouldn't have followed you!" ”
"Hehehe, I have to tie you up if I hide at home, so if you know each other, hurry up and think of a good idea, and you can eat meat steamed buns! Otherwise, I'll starve you all night! I won't even give you a sip of water! ”
Seeing Zhao Zhutou scare himself with a straight face, the dog sighed and said, "I didn't take this money, so I didn't bother thinking about it!" ”
Zhao Zhutou hurriedly coaxed: "Little dog, if you have a solution, as long as you open your mouth, you can do as much as you want." ”
The dog pouted: "Hehehe, I want ten taels of silver, are you willing to give it?" ”
There was a loud bang, and the dog hurriedly looked over and saw County Lieutenant Liu holding a startled tree, and said to himself with a smile: "Give, don't say ten taels, as long as you can do things beautifully, there is no problem with twenty taels!" ”
