Early the next morning, Pei Yue was sent to the county seat by Li Tao, and it was not until the evening that Liu Zhiren returned to the autumn wind.

"Uncle Yue, how is it? Have you inquired clearly? Li Tao couldn't wait to ask.

"I've inquired about it all."

"Tell me about it?" Li Tao urged.

"The head catcher of Changzi County is surnamed Guo, called Guo Zhuang, and he is thirty-three years old Chinese New Year's Eve. Changzi County is a big county, there are 100 fast catchers, Guo Zhuang is strong in martial arts, fair in affairs, and quite popular with his subordinates. Guo Zhuang lives in Luojiazhuang on the outskirts of Changzi County, has no heirs, and has no other relatives in the family except for his mother and blind old mother. ”

"Luojiazhuang?" Liu Xuan muttered.

"What? Old Master Liu, do you know this place? Li Tao asked strangely.

"Know! Luojiazhuang has an old man I have seen for many years! ”

"It's really a coincidence that there is no book, Old Master Liu, tomorrow I will accompany you to Luojiazhuang to visit this old man!" Li Tao looked at Liu Xuan.

"I'm afraid that Li Xiaolangjun didn't accompany me to visit the old man, but the face was intended to be the head of Guo Zhutou!"

Li Tao didn't say anything, just nodded.

"Li Xiaolangjun, I'll go with you tomorrow." Liu Zhiren interjected on the side.

……

Guojiazhuang and Luojiazhuang are not too far away, and Li Tao and Liu Xuan, father and son, arrived at Luojiazhuang at noon.

Liu Xuan's deceased name is Luo Mao, and he is a native of Luojiazhuang, the eldest son of the county. Although Luo Mao was born in a poor family, he was full of talent. Before Liu Xuan entered the office, he often traveled with Luo Mao to play in the mountains and rivers, play chess and fish, drink and chant poetry.

Luo Mao saw Liu Xuan's father and son with great enthusiasm, after all, such a friend with such an appetite is really rare, how can he not be happy. immediately instructed the lady: "Prepare some good dishes to accompany the wine!" ”

Liu Xuan and Luo Mao chatted happily, but Li Tao on the side was anxious and repeatedly gave Liu Xuan a look, but Liu Xuan turned a blind eye.

When Li Tao was bored, Liu Xuan finally stepped into the topic: "Brother Luo, I'll ask you about someone!" ”

"Who?"

"The eldest son catches Guo Zhuang."

"What does he do?" Luo Mao asked curiously.

"It's nothing, I'm just curious about this Guo Zhuang."

"Guo Zhuang was not originally from the eldest son county, and he and I are still related. He's a big celebrity in Eldest Son County......"

A few years ago, there was an Iron Bowl Gang in Changzi County, led by a monk, known as the "Iron Arhat", who accepted dozens of apprentices, all of whom learned a skill from him, and robbed houses everywhere. The county government suppressed several times, but did not take advantage of it, and when the county magistrate slept at night, he was cut off his braids as a warning.

Tie Luohan sent people to the rich merchants of Changzi County every once in a while to ask for money and grain, and the rich merchants were miserable, and some began to hire bodyguards with high martial arts skills to protect the courtyard at high prices. Luo Mao's cousin Luo Songling is a family who makes a dart game, and when he was young, he was very famous in the rivers and lakes with his excellent leg kung fu. Later, when Luo Songling was older, he returned to Luojiazhuang to close his doors and ignore guests, and concentrated on practicing martial arts at home.

Luo Songling's family is quite rich, and there are many families in Luojiazhuang, although the Iron Bowl Gang covets it, but it has never attacked him. Other wealthy merchants in Changzi County asked him to go out of the mountain to lead the defense against the Iron Bowl Gang, but they all ate behind closed doors without exception. Everyone scolded Luo Songling behind his back for being rich and unkind, and he had no affection.

This time, two guests came to the Luo family, a swarthy strong man reported to his home, Chen Daxia, who was known as the "stele opener". The other was not very old and dressed like a farmer.

At the beginning, Luo Songling thought that this person was Chen Daxia's entourage, but he didn't expect this young man to kneel down and kowtow as soon as he entered the door, calling him "master".

Luo Songling recognized it for a long time, still confused.

Chen Daxia told Luo Songling that this young man's name was Guo Zhuang, and he met him on the road, and he heard that he was Luo Songling's apprentice, so he brought him over.

Seeing that the master couldn't remember himself, Guo Zhuang hurriedly reminded him: Fifteen years ago, he learned martial arts from Luo Songling for a month.

Now Luo Songling finally remembered, fifteen years ago, he closed the dart game, and wanted to spend a few days to be free, and when he returned, Guojiazhuang wanted to accept a few apprentices to teach him his mastery. Guo Zhuang was introduced by an old friend, and Luo Songling saw that he didn't look like a martial arts practitioner, but he owed his old friend a favor, so he had to reluctantly accept it.

Unexpectedly, this teenager was surprisingly stupid, and he didn't learn Zama in three days after others learned it, but he didn't learn it for a month. Luo Songling couldn't bear it anymore, so he had to kick Guo Zhuang out, but he didn't expect this kid to keep remembering his master.

Now that there is a problem in his own family, it is really commendable for Guo Zhuang to come over at this time, but what can a person like Guo Zhuang help?

Luo Songling frowned, and asked someone to lead Guo Zhuang to guard the backyard. Guo Zhuang is an elm head, but he is also a responsible person, and the backyard is where the lady and daughter live, and it is more reassuring to have such a person to protect the hospital.

When only Chen Daxia was left in the room, Luo Songling took out a letter and handed it to Chen Daxia.

Chen Daxia took the letter, only to see that it was written: On the eighth day of the next month, borrow 20,000 yuan. There is a black bowl painted at the bottom.

Chen Daxia said angrily: "These thieves are really bold, and they are 20,000 yuan when they open their mouths!" Luo Darttou, you can rest assured! With your leg skills, plus my iron palms, these little thieves will not be a problem, and they will not be allowed to take a penny!"

The Luo family was in full swing preparing to meet the enemy, but Guo Zhuang was standing like a stake at the door of the backyard. Luo Songling's daughter stays at home, and everything is in and out of the maid Ju'er. Ju'er looked at Guo Zhuang stupidly funny. I couldn't answer him ten words, and I was often amused by his stupidity.

One day, Ju'er was surprised to find that Guo Zhuang's two feet were not ordinarily big, and his left foot was larger than his right foot. That's a rare thing. Ju'er went back and told Miss, and even Miss came out to see it. It didn't take much time for the maids and ladies in the garden to gather around, making Guo Zhuang's face flushed, and his left foot was in a hurry to shrink back. Ju'er saw that he was strange and pitiful, and hurriedly persuaded everyone away.

A few days later, she gave Guo Zhuang a new pair of shoes, of course, one big and one small. Guo Zhuang replaced the tattered old shoes and put on the new shoes, which fit just right, he smiled at Ju'er gratefully, but he didn't know what to say.

At this time, suddenly there was a noise in front, and a family member ran over in a panic to report: "Let the lady and the little lady hide, the iron bowl gang is coming."

Ju'er was so frightened that even her face changed: "These strongmen dare to come in broad daylight?" What can I do? My lord had a stroke last year, and he was just able to walk on the ground, so you should go and protect him. ”

Only then did Guo Zhuang know that the master could no longer use force. Although he didn't have any skills, the nurse was anxious, so he picked up a stick and rushed into the lobby.
