Chapter Ninety-Seven: Wang Sanyun
Chen Zheng didn't know the many thoughts that came out of the peach blossom little head behind him, and just stared at the crowd of the Wang family below.
Soon a special figure entered Chen Zheng's eyes, it was an old man who looked about sixty or seventy years old, his hair was pale, but he was very neatly groomed, and his face seemed to be no different from that of an ordinary old man, full of wrinkles, and he didn't look very old, as if he had some personability.
It looks like an ordinary person in his eyes, but there is always a feeling of seeing through the vicissitudes of the world. The strangest thing is that the old man's hands seem to be covered with calluses, which should be caused by heavy work or martial arts training.
However, Chen Zheng did not find any traces of the old man's manual labor, and second, he did not find the breath of a martial artist on his body, so he became interested. And the people next to the Wang family are exposing and reporting to Huang He to reduce their crimes, this old man doesn't care very much, he is too calm, although there is a wry smile on his face, but it is more of a kind of sadness for himself, it doesn't look like the emotion for the Wang family and the Wang family.
It must be one with a story, Chen Zheng thought to himself.
Quietly called a city guard next to him to ask about the identity of this calm old man, the city guard glanced at it and replied: "My lord, this old man is the housekeeper of the Wang family, called Wang Sanyun, it seems that he has been in the Wang family for a long time, some trivial matters of the Wang family are managed by him, if I remember correctly, he is still a wanderer rescued by Wang Xuanmian, Wang Xuanmian found him seriously injured on the side of the road at that time, treated him for treatment, and saw that he had some talents and stayed in the palace as a housekeeper." I heard that with his help, Wang Xuanmian became the number one family in Tugen County so quickly, and I don't know if it's true. ”
Hearing this city guard say this, Chen Zheng became interested, generally such a person, according to the routine in the novel, is either the protagonist or an important supporting role, what kind of injury is treated, desperately repaying the favor, it seems to be a weak chicken, in fact, he is a very high cultivation grandfather, all kinds of examples, began to echo in Chen Zheng's mind, this kind of person who has a different template at a glance must receive it in his own hands.
Then, Chen Zheng came to Wang Sanyun's side, pretended not to know anything, looked at him, and then asked: "Who are you, why are everyone registering, only you are standing here, what?" Don't want to mitigate a little crime? ”
Wang Sanyun said with a wry smile: "Back to this adult's words, in Xia Wang Sanyun, not just add the housekeeper of the palace, as for the registration of the adult, the adult said and laughed, who doesn't want to reduce their crimes, but Beiyan has never heard of this kind of rule, and besides, there is actually no difference whether the adult registers or not, if the adult doesn't let us go, we can't go, it's all a matter of the adult's mouth." ”
Chen Zheng was a little surprised, this old mind is quite strong, although Beiyan didn't have this kind of rule before, the final fate of these people is actually his own words, but he really wants to make this group of people who haven't done anything as easy as possible, after all, the first evil is dead, and it has no value and effect to do it to these people again.
Chen Zheng raised his forehead slightly and said, "Well, old man, you have a lot of ideas, I learned from the city guards that you were saved by Wang Xuanmian and then became the housekeeper of the palace?" I'm also the unlucky murderer of the palace, do you want revenge? There was a sense of ridicule behind the words.
Wang Sanyun shook his head and said: "I don't have that kind of thought, the Wang family saved me, but I have also served the Wang family for so many years, which is enough to repay a favor at that time, and I only noticed some of the things Wang Xuanmian did, but I can't control it as a powerless person, people are soft-spoken, and no one believes what they say, so many people have died, and there is also part of the reason why I have died." ”
Chen Zheng admired his statement: "Then old man, what are you going to do next?" ”
When Wang Sanyun heard that Chen Zheng wanted to recruit himself, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he found that Chen Zheng didn't look at himself, he didn't know Chen Zheng's thoughts, and he still said his plan, "I don't have any plans, after paying off the kindness of the Wang family, my old bones can retire, find a place to live together, but I am dead, in my opinion, it is good." After speaking, he touched his beard seemingly leisurely.
Chen Zheng mysteriously approached Wang Sanyun's ear, and said softly: "Then old man, don't you want to take revenge?" In the eyes of outsiders, at this time, a young man seems to be playing ambiguously with an old man, and the painting style is surprising, which makes it difficult to look at directly.
Hearing Chen Zheng's whisper, Wang Sanyun's eyes suddenly widened, his eyes were full of coldness that was different from Fang Cai, and he no longer had a bitter face, a gloomy face, as if a thick murderous aura appeared on Wang Sanyun's body, and the surrounding temperature seemed to be low, making people can't help but want to sneeze.
Wang Sanyun, an ordinary looking ordinary person, didn't know where the strength came from, and his right hand instantly put on Chen Zheng's throat, and said in a low voice: "Who are you?" Who sent it? ”
Feeling that the seemingly old hand in his throat was even trembling, Chen Zheng believed that the old man would be able to tear his throat with his hands in the next moment, but Chen Zheng was not nervous, and put his hand on Wang Sanyun's shoulder with a smile and said.
"Hey, old man, you're too nervous, I'm not a person, just an ordinary embroidered guard, but I think more, ordinary people get ahead with their brains, but I heard that you were injured before, and if you were just an ordinary person at your age, you might have died a long time ago, so I boldly guessed, old man, you are actually a martial artist, and your cultivation is definitely not low, but the reason for the injury or what is the other problem, now the martial arts are not obvious, it must be a person with a story, I don't know if what I said is right?"
Wang Sanyun's face softened slightly after hearing this: "What if you secretly investigated me?" ”
Chen Zheng replied: "I know I didn't say that there is full evidence to prove that I just guessed, but I'll put my words here first, you think for yourself." Since you were injured before, this is not something you can do alone, I can give you a way to the old gentleman, we will cooperate, I will find a way to start with the embroidered clothes and guards, help you collect information, and even restore the natural treasures of cultivation, I need Mr. to provide me with experience in the rivers and lakes to help me manage my subordinates. Wouldn't it be beautiful to be mutually beneficial and win-win? ”
Wang Sanyun sighed: "What a big breath, a small flag embroidered by a guard has such a big confidence?" ”
Chen Zheng didn't care about the irony, and replied: "But no matter how you say it, it's a method, sir, you have been in Tugen County for so many years, it's not that you don't want revenge, but you have nothing to rely on, you are alone, and Mr. is a person who is still injured at this age and has not cultivated, if there will be a place to take him in, Mr. will not live in Tugen County for so many years, I am just a small flag now, but with Mr. help, I believe that I will soon be able to get rid of the identity of the small flag, Mr. should think about it, After all, actions are always more important than ideas. ”
After speaking, Chen Zheng bowed his hand to Wang Sanyun and said goodbye.
Wang Sanyun was left in place, his face uncertain.
