Chapter 36: A Case Within a Case

Chen Chao is scattering his wealth in full swing. At this time, more carts suddenly drove next to it, transporting more rice and grain for distribution, and the scale was simply unprecedented.

Chen Chao's heart suddenly had mixed tastes, and he said secretly: Whoever wants to scatter money should not be left with me, don't you steal business? How can I earn prestige if I can't get rid of all the rice and grain I bought with my family?

Chen Chao was about to see who robbed his business for no reason, but people took the initiative to find him.

"Dare to ask this brother is Mr. Chen Chao?" The second housekeeper bowed to Chen Chao.

"Yes, I am Chen Chao. You are ......" Chen Chao said, looking at the two.

The second housekeeper made a gesture of recommendation and introduced: "This is our Su Wangye, Su Wangye heard about Mr. Chen's righteous act, admired him, and came to meet him." ”

It turned out to be a prince...... Chen Chao suddenly felt in his heart, and saluted to the prince of Su: "I have seen the prince of Su." "Of course, when you enter the countryside, you have to follow the customs, and when you see the prince, you should abide by the necessary etiquette.

"No courtesy." Prince Su nodded with satisfaction, and said to Chen Chao: "I can't imagine that I Dayan and Mr. Chen, a righteous man like you who can do things for the people, but my dynasty has no spare strength to open a warehouse and release grain, this king is ashamed." ”

"The prince is serious. Although Chen has lived overseas for a long time, he is also a citizen of Dayan, and now that the people are hungry, Chen should do a little bit for the court. Chen Chao said casually. Although the fundamental purpose of scattering wealth is to gain prestige, it is also necessary to find a reasonable reason for yourself.

But listening to it in the ears of Prince Su is another matter. "Good man, Mr. Chen is really a good person! It is a blessing for the court that I have a righteous man like Mr. Chen. If you have time, please also ask Mr. Chen to come to the palace for a gathering. "Lord Su is making an invitation.

"Thanks to the prince's love, when Chen has nothing to do, he will come to visit." Chen Chao also agreed to get off the donkey down the slope, as for whether he will go or not, I will talk about it later.

After the two were polite, they scattered their money. Chen Chao came early, and his financial resources were far less abundant than that of Prince Su, so the purchased rice and grain were dispersed first, so he left under the pretext of saying goodbye.

After scattering more than 700 oceans of rice and grain, and earning a lot of prestige, Chen Chao once again found the old man and asked him to open up the remaining acupuncture veins of the light skill secret book "Falling Dust Speed".

As the saying goes, it is easy to do things with money, and since the prestige is enough, the old man will naturally not refuse Chen Chao's request, take him to the abandoned mansion, and open up all the acupoints of "Falling Dust Walking" for him.

Chen Chao put his hand on the five-color rope and checked it......

Name: Chao Chen

Grandpa: LV1

Combat strength: 15540

Plane Ranking: 9518th (Ranked higher than 9000th to receive achievement packs)

Chen Chao saw that the one-star light skill cheat "Falling Dust Step" had been practiced to perfection, and his reputation still had 417 points left, so he asked the old man: "Grandpa, I have now completed the one-star light skill cheats, can I already learn the two-star light skill cheats "Treading Snow Without a Trace"?" ”

The old man nodded and said, "Your conditions are ripe for learning higher-level light skill cheats, but ......"

The old man changed his words, and then said, "Didn't you ask me before if I wanted to learn a new cheat, what requirements do I need?" I'll tell you right now. ”

The old man continued, "The first way is that you have to spend positive energy to 'forget', and at the same time, the reputation that has been consumed will be returned to the original number, so that you can learn another cheat of a higher level. ”

"In the second way, you can use twice as much positive energy to open up the second layer of acupuncture points. This way, you don't need to 'forget' the cheats you've already learned, so you can learn another cheat. ”

"Got it?"

"Got it." Chen Chao nodded and said, "I still think the first method is better." Now that you have already cultivated a higher-level cheat, there is no need to keep a lower-level cheat at all, and 'Forget' can also return the prestige of practicing it in full, which is very cost-effective. ”

Chen Chao then asked: "Then how much positive energy does it take for me to 'forget' the "Falling Dust Walk" that I have already learned?" ”

The old man raised two fingers and replied, "20 o'clock." ”

Chen Chao suddenly frowned, and said secretly: I have accumulated 15 points of positive energy now when I am full, and I am still 5 points short. And my Life-Sustaining Pill has also been eaten, and I have to rely on positive energy to exchange for Life-Sustaining Pill. It seems that we need to further cut down the evil and earn more positive energy.

……

After separating from the old grandfather, Chen Chao returned to the Liu family's house, and when he was thinking about finding An Pingyuan to ask if there was any new work to do, An Pingyuan took the initiative to come to the door.

"Hey, Brother Chen, are you at home? That's great. An Pingyuan said as he walked over.

Chen Chao immediately asked, "What's the matter, something to do again?" ”

An Pingyuan patted Chen Chao's shoulder and said, "You guessed it, Brother Chen." Let's go, come with me to the yamen of the Criminal Department now, Lord Rong is waiting for us. ”

Chen Chao couldn't help but ask: "What's the matter?" ”

An Pingyuan: "Don't ask so much first, you will naturally know when you get to the Yamen." ”

Chen Chao followed An Pingyuan to the yamen of the Criminal Department, and Lord Rong greeted him inside, welcomed the two to the back room to sit down, and ordered someone to serve good tea.

Lord Rong said: "Mr. Chen, I asked Pingyuan to bring you here, there is another case that needs your help. ”

Chen Chao glanced at An Pingyuan and asked Lord Rong, "What is the case, please tell Lord Rong clearly." It is a blessing for Chen to be able to share the worries of the court, and I believe that Brother An is also willing to serve. ”

Lord Rong was very satisfied, and continued: "In the case of the theft of the jade seal last time, Mr. Chen, you and Pingyuan were the parties, and the case was very clear, so I won't say more." In fact, the snitch not only stole the jade seal that night, but also stole an additional red rabbit jade horse. ”

"What?! And stole a red rabbit jade horse?! Chen Chao couldn't believe it, the red rabbit jade horse Chen Chao was very impressed, his whole body was purple and red, only his four hooves were like snow, and this jade horse was in the main hall at that time. Chen Chao remembered that he had asked An Pingyuan about its origin, and An Pingyuan said that it belonged to Prince Su.

"That's right." An Pingyuan took over the conversation and said on behalf of Lord Rong: "The snitch left a book and stole the jade seal at that time, we all thought that the goal of the snitch was to steal the jade seal, and we didn't care about what else was missing in the hall at that time, and the loss of the jade horse was discovered by the eunuchs in the palace." ”
