Volume 1: Striking Chapter 18: Good Enlightenment

Qinghe Town has a mayor, this matter may only be heard of by the older generation, and the current younger generations know the mayor, almost nothing.

This is an idle job, an idle job that only takes a reward and does not do anything.

You can't blame him completely, you can only blame "Open Pulse Scroll" for not being popular, and blame Nancheng for having a unique Nanchen god general.

Early in the morning, the mayor of the town, Levi, put on the official uniform at the bottom of the box and put on his dusty black gauze hat.

He was not tall, and he was a little skinny, but he sat on the head of the mayor's mansion, with a straight waist, and there was such a frame for an official.

It looked like it was there, but it didn't last long, and after a while, his upright body bent down again, and the right hand holding the board seemed to lose its strength, and his old body began to tremble.

It was all because of the blank piece of paper in his other hand.

The white paper is very white, so white that there are only a few black words:

Wu Nian slaughtered Baxia Village, and Wang Fuzi said a fake ghost.

The matter in Baxia Village was something he couldn't bring up again, neither the mayor nor the townspeople wanted to mention it, and the matter of the ghost that Mr. Wang said was undoubtedly in the heart, and they were all convinced that the incident in Baxia Village that night was associated with the female ghost.

Because the people in Baxia Village died very miserably, so miserable that there was only blood, not even bones, it was not a female ghost who did it, I really can't think of anyone who could do such a thing.

However, he finally did what he said on the paper, because there was a fiery red rubbing under the white paper, which was the seal of the Changlin Palace, and he couldn't shirk it.

And then a bombshell news spread all over Qinghe Town, and there were two notices posted at every alley in the town, one was about the murderer Wu Nian, and the other was about the prince who deceived the public.

The people from the town mayor's mansion did not send people out to arrest people, and even the people who posted the wanted warrant were not posted by the people from the town mayor's mansion, but by the people from the Yan Mansion.

The Yan Mansion is powerful, and the Yan Mansion in Qinghe Town is undoubtedly the most influential mansion, because there are two cultivators in the Yan Mansion, and there are no other places.

In the hall of Yanfu, Yan Run sat upright on a chair, sitting upright, but he couldn't hide his dark eye circles and bloodshot eyes.

Smack-

After a while, Yan Moxue walked in from the outside in a rage, she shook her hand and slapped a notice in front of Yan Run, "Why?"

Yan Run seemed to be frightened by the sound just now, and coughed breathlessly, he coughed so badly that the green scarf in his hand could see blood, the blood was black blood, and the green scarf was bubbling with a weird black gas.

Yan Run eased up and replied, "For his good." ”

Yan Moxue saw such a Yan Run, and the spikes between the words also converged a little, "For his good, then why do you want him, you know that he didn't do it." ”

Yan Run was silent for a while, looked outside the house and said, "Mo Xue, kill one person or kill ten people, what will you choose?"

Yan Moxue didn't think about it: "Kill someone." ”

Yan Run smiled and put away the green scarf stained with black blood, "What if killing that person is equivalent to killing a hundred people?"

"Would you still think so?"

Yan Moxue was dumbfounded and couldn't answer.

Yan Run continued, "Don't worry, I won't hurt him, even if I kill the little prince, I won't hurt him." ”

Yan Moxue heard this: "It's okay to kill Chen Yun, I'm not his opponent." As long as you don't lie to me. ”

Yan Run gently picked up the teacup and gently put down the wine glass, "Xiaoxue, you don't believe your father so much?"

Yan Moxue shook her head, who can believe this, it's not bad to deceive a few years old, but his daughter, who has lived with him for more than ten years, will not believe it.

"Okay, if you don't believe it, forget it. But you don't have to worry about Ah Nian's kid, don't you still want to go to find the mysterious weapon, then go and find it, Ah Nian will be fine. ”

Yan Run strolled out of the hall, his waist was not as straight as usual, and his steps were not as athletic as usual.

Like a man coming out of a pile of dead, lifeless.

Yan Moxue stopped Yan Run: "Father, you don't seem to be in good health today, you ...... Pay more attention to your body. ”

Yan Run said: "It's okay, it's just that I didn't drink the wine that Ah Nian gave me." With that, he left without looking back.

Click-

After Yan Run left, the teacup that Yan Run had gently held for some reason shattered in an instant, and the tea in it spilled out.

Yan Moxue obviously saw this scene, and suddenly turned her head to look in the direction where Yan Run was gone, but the figure who was not in good spirits was gone. She stood there in a daze, with an untold amount of shock.

The news of Baxia Village spread, and there was a lot of discussion in the town, but it was just a discussion, and it was not taken seriously.

Who would believe that a little man who delivered wine could kill a villager, and who would believe that the storyteller Wang Fuzi was an accomplice.

Nonsense.

Let's talk about the matter of Baxia Village, what they are talking about is not whether Wu Nian is a fierce beast, but where did the female ghost go?

The female ghost that Master Wang talked about, I have to believe it.

The wanted notice issued by the mayor of the town is like a stone sinking into the sea, and it can't be shocked at all, and no one reads or pays attention to the notices pasted up. If he had stood up and spoken out when Baxia Village had been slaughtered, they might have believed it, but now that it has been so many days since he came out to speak, it is obvious that something has changed. He wanted this warrant, no one made that money, but let the four or five temples in Qinghe Town get a lot of incense money.

The wanted bounty was very high, a thousand taels of silver, but not one of them took down the notice that hung at the mouth of every alley.

No one wants to have anything to do with female ghosts.

Even if it wasn't Wu Nian who slaughtered Baxia Village, no one wanted to have anything to do with the female ghost.

The prince of Tingfeng Lou is prescient, and today's Tingfeng Lou does not do storytelling business, but is just a simple teahouse.

And Wu Nian in Xiaojing Lane was not as wise as him, he still carried a bamboo basket of wine out of Xiaojing Lane.

Because today is the market day, he has to go and deliver wine.

He is not tall, but he walks very tall, as if he can always be superior. He was average-looking, but now he looked angular and resolute.

He had a long sword at his waist and was dressed in cloth. He looks like a ranger, but he doesn't carry a burden behind him, just a bamboo basket of wine and a green umbrella without a pattern.

In his hand was a notice that had just been torn from the mouth of the alley.

The end of the line, the right walk. He didn't kill the people in Baxia Village, and naturally he wasn't afraid of the mayor's want, and it was one thing for him to send wine on this trip, and it was also one thing to go to the mayor's mansion.

He came to the path outside the school, and he stopped at the sound of reading aloud. I saw Mr. Wang lying on his stomach outside the window of the school's rather humane latticework, his eyes were looking intently, his expression was very focused, and he did not have the hangings of storytelling at all. He sometimes jumped to his feet because he was dissatisfied with Mr. Nei's teaching, but he didn't interrupt.

Wu Nian walked over and said, "Master, I'm so interested today, I don't want to tell the story, but I'm here to toss." ”

Shh

Master Wang put his rough fingers to his mouth again, "Don't speak, if you want to speak, let's talk away." ”

After speaking, the two came to the small pavilion in the small pond, and Master Wang was not polite, first sat on the bench, "Teaching is a matter of righteousness, and it is better than meditation and cultivation, and it should not be disturbed." ”

Wu Nian glanced at Master Wang, he seemed to have a little less Jianghu atmosphere now, and said a little puzzled: "Master, your old man is so strong, you also have a set of storytelling, and you don't have to worry about eating and drinking, why don't you start classes and teach by yourself?"

Master Wang sighed, "No...... No, I didn't teach people a long time ago. ”

Wu Nian was confused: "It turns out that the master has taught people before, and he must have experience, why ......?"

Master Wang waved his hand, not wanting to mention it again, "Okay, okay...... I told you that you don't know that a tendon like you is the same as your old man. ”

Wu Nian continued to ask, "I don't know which father Master Wang is talking about?"

Wang Fuzi raised his eyebrows, looking at the young man in front of him who wanted to be angry but couldn't get angry, he didn't answer Wu Nian's words, "You don't seem to have a good consciousness." ”

Wu Nian asked, "What enlightenment?"

Wang Fuzi said, "What are you doing now?"

"Deliver wine. ”

Wu Nian put down the bamboo basket, took out a jar of wine with the words "Master Wang" written on it, and handed it to him, "Come, Master, this is your wine today." ”

Wang Fuzi happily took the wine, but he didn't seem to be satisfied with what Wu Nian said, so he knocked on Wu Nian's head with a ring ruler. Wu Nian touched his reddened forehead and said, "I didn't kill the people in the village under the dam, I sat upright, why can't I come out." ”

When Wu Nian said this, Master Wang was even more angry and said, "That's not what I'm talking about. ”

Wu Nian said aggrievedly: "Which one is that?"

Master Wang said, "Why do you want to kill him? He is better to you than your father." ”

Hearing this, Wu Nian's aggrieved look disappeared in an instant, and he looked at Master Wang with a straight face, "If you kill someone, you must be ready to be killed." ”

"If he didn't kill people, then do you still kill them?"

"Kill. ”

"If you kill him, will you regret killing him?"

"Kill. ”

"Tell me why?"

Master Wang's eyes seemed to be judging Wu Nian.

But at this time, Wu Nian no longer cared about Wang Fuzi's astonishing strength, there was a fire in his eyes, no matter what, he only had one killing word.

Wu Nian looked at Master Wang's eyes very seriously, "If he hadn't killed my parents, I would have respected him, but I would never regret it because I killed him, people can't pay for what they've done, right?"

"Hahaha......"

"Well, well, I seem to understand why he did it. ”

For some reason, Wang Fuzi's scrutinizing attitude changed from normal, and he laughed as if he had solved some problem. But after laughing for a while, he sank his face again, his eyes looked at the immature young man in front of him again, and said a little greedily: "They seem to say that you have a mysterious weapon on you?"

Wu Nian felt funny: "They can say whatever they like, but I don't have it anyway." ”

Master Wang's eyes were placed on his lower abdomen and he said, "What if I say you have." ”

Wu Nian said calmly: "If there is, I would have hidden it and laughed secretly, who would come out to deliver wine." ”

Wang Fuzi said: "The mysterious weapon may not be held in the hand, and a good mysterious weapon can also be a person." ”

If you can see through Wu Nian's lower abdomen, you can clearly see that there is a golden light small ding suspended in his body.

This was something he accidentally discovered last night when he broke the four veins and was sitting on the ground to look at himself.

And the prince in front of him has obviously seen it.

Wu Nian exclaimed in disbelief, "Master, tell me what you know?"

"Want to know?"

"Yes. ”

"Then you have to be enlightened. ”

"It's done. ”

"Then follow me to listen to the wind building, and I'll tell you. ”

"Good. ”

One old and one young, standing side by side, not like grandchildren, not like master and apprentice, more like a half-hung gentleman and a half-hung student.

The streets of Daji are lined with people, but whenever they see these two people passing by, they will consciously get out of the way.

Maybe it's a kind of respect for the wanted criminals for the first time, or maybe it's really tacitly made them murderers.
