Chapter 60: The Future Is Hopeless

Crash!

Chen Mufeng sat up with a spirit, and the cold water splashed on his body in the middle of the night, and being blown by the wind made him shiver involuntarily.

"Ninth Young Master, are you awake?" Zhuang Rou squatted next to him, holding the teapot filled with water in her hand, and looked at him with a well-behaved face.

"Ahh Chen Mufeng reacted immediately when he saw her face, and he quickly retreated far away from the person sitting on the ground, and after taking a few breaths, he only felt soreness all over his body. Quickly looked down and found that there were bruises and purples everywhere on his body, and he had gained a lot of weight.

Zhuang Rou put down the teapot, stood up and said with a smile: "Ninth Young Master, do you want to continue fighting?" ”

Who wants to be beaten!

Chen Mufeng hurriedly said: "Who are you, why are you so thin?" ”

Obviously she is not a tall woman, why is her strength so great, and she is not strong when she looks at it!

"Emaciated?" Zhuang Rou pulled up her cuffs and showed her arms to him, which were not women's soft arms, but arms with delicate and beautiful muscles. It's not as strong and lifeless as he is, it's not too abrupt, and it doesn't feel bad about a girl with such muscles.

Chen Mufeng was silent for a moment, and then said unconvinced: "It's not as strong as my muscles, just a little." ”

Zhuang Rou smiled disapprecitatively: "But you still can't beat me, if I want to kill you, you have already died several times, I will ask you if you admit defeat now?" ”

"What if you lose!" Chen Mufeng said stiffly, he sat on the ground like no one, but he was pretending. The swelling and pain in his body made him unable to stand up, and he didn't know what his face looked like.

"If you lose, you're going to do something for me, and we said yes. It doesn't matter if you don't want to admit it, even if the night is dark and the wind is high, even if it kills you, no one will know. I think the people around you should know that you will come to practice martial arts in the middle of the night, and no one will come to disturb you if you make some noise, so you will be better to die. Zhuang Rou said very calmly, looking at him and smiling indifferently.

How can there be such a person, is it a killer!

Chen Mufeng didn't want to die, but he didn't know what this ruthless woman wanted him to do, so he said very vigilantly: "What are you going to let me do?" I'm not going to say anything like murder! ”

"Who made you kill someone, I'm a good person, just looking for you for a little thing." Zhuang Rou saw that he was relieved, so she sat down on the stool next to him, looked at him and said, "You have a scholar, and now you are the second housekeeper in the family, your name is Li Zhongxin, isn't it?" ”

"yes, what's wrong?" turned out to be to inquire about him, Chen Mufeng inexplicably responded, what else could he do to attract such a fierce character.

Zhuang Rou smiled: "I want to go to see where he lives, and then there is his origin and everything." ”

Chen Mufeng asked puzzledly, "Why?" ”

After staring at him several times, Zhuang Rou shrugged and said, "It's okay, his wife who didn't pass through the door was hit by a carriage and died, and it happened that the case fell into my hands, so I want to help him get justice." ”

"What?" Chen Mufeng looked at her dumbfounded, feeling a little incomprehensible, "Hit by a carriage and killed?" And who are you? ”

Zhuang Rou tilted his head and looked at him with a strong smile on Erlang's legs, "The strongest person in Douhu County should be arrested, Zhuang Rou." The women in the Falcon Gate don't count, I'm the only woman in this dynasty who should be arrested, and I came to you to handle the case, now I understand. ”

Chen Mufeng was stunned for a long time, then suddenly jumped up and shouted: "It turns out that you are not the maid ring next door, just a little catcher, and you dare to beat me!" ”

Before the words fell, he was kicked down by Zhuang Rou standing up, and mocked contemptuously: "I'm fighting again now, what do you want?" It's nothing to tell you, I only killed a dozen people sent by Chen Xunting from the guard yesterday, and it would be easy to take your life. ”

Chen Xunting!

Chen Mufeng was very surprised, although that guy had the same surname as himself, he was completely from two worlds. A person with lofty ideals like himself, who has a good character and wants to learn martial arts to join the army and serve the country, is insoluble with the kind of people who take advantage of the wealth and power of the family and fly high and dominate, and harm the Quartet.

But Chen Xunting's power he knew, it was simply lawless, not to mention that Uncle Guo had military power, and there was no problem in mobilizing the people in the guard. In his Chen Family Martial Arts Hall alone, there are many powerful characters, and I saw it once last time.

But she actually killed the people who came from the guard, Chen Xunting could obviously send people from the martial arts hall, why did she call the people from the army out, could this woman be so powerful? And why Chen Xunting wanted to kill her, it was just a small arrest.

Chen Mufeng couldn't figure it out, he struggled to sit up again, "Chen Xunting has a master of the martial arts hall, and you don't need to call the people of the guard to deal with you, you don't lie to me!" Besides, why did he kill you, what else could you do to provoke the royal relatives and relatives. ”

"You said that the people in the Chen Family Martial Arts Pavilion are masters?" Zhuang Rou looked at him in surprise, this little young master's eyes were really short-sighted and terrifying, and he actually said that those shrimp soldiers and crabs would be masters.

Looking at her contemptuous face, Chen Mufeng felt a little ashamed, "Of course, their martial arts are very good, and they are all masters!" ”

Zhuang Rou sat back on the long board and said slowly: "The shelf is good, but unfortunately it is not practical." It was because I took his martial arts hall that he had no way to take me, so he sent the guard to kill people. But the people who came naturally came and went, where can I let them run. ”

"I think you're being beaten stupidly, if you don't have two hands, I can beat a muscular guy like you like this? Nine Princes, you are so weak. ”

Listening to her words, Chen Mufeng bit his lip and gradually calmed down, thinking about it carefully, she was really powerful, but she was just a housekeeper. However, I feel that she is even more powerful than the master of the nursing home, and if she is allowed to teach herself martial arts, it may be a good choice.

So, he said: "I can help you check Li Zhongxin, but if you want to teach me martial arts, I can pay the silver!" ”

Zhuang Rou shook her head and said, "No, I can't teach you." ”

"Why! Am I not talented enough? Chen Mufeng asked in shock, obviously many people praise him for being a martial arts prodigy, if it weren't for his family to prevent him from practicing martial arts, it would be no problem to take the martial arts championship, but she couldn't preach?

Zhuang Rou grinned and said, "Because I don't know martial arts, what can I teach you?" ”

Chen Mufeng stood up, pointed to the bruises on his body and shouted: "Nonsense, you are obviously so powerful, what did you make me look like!" ”

"It's true that I don't know martial arts, but I can kill, do you want to learn to kill?" Zhuang Rou pouted and said.

"......" Chen Mufeng looked at her speechlessly, and immediately said after a while, "Learn, you have to kill people when you go to the battlefield, if you don't know how to kill, then don't you let others kill you!" ”

Zhuang Rou really didn't want to accept disciples, but he saw that this young master was too arrogant and stupid to let him recognize himself. Now seeing that he is so enthusiastic, he suddenly has an idea, this person is the son of the official Shangshu, although Chen Shangshu is not a pavilion elder, but the youngest one in Shangshu is only in his early fifties. With his son as an attendant, it is even more convenient to do things.

So she said with a sad look on her face: "But I am entangled in official duties every day, and my brother keeps an eye on it at night, so it is not good to teach you, and the lonely man and widow will let others gossip." ”

Chen Mufeng looked at her speechlessly, just a person like her dared to say that she was a lonely man and a widow, and she had been standing here with a pair of pants for a long time, and she had never been shy.

"I listened to your tone just now, I want to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy in the future, and now I can see blood, and I am used to seeing corpses. In the future, when you go to the battlefield and mix in the corpse pile, you won't be scared and your legs will tremble, so you can be my errand soldier. I don't have any money, but you can follow me to solve the case, and you can learn a lot by honoring me occasionally, which is very cost-effective. Zhuang Rou said graciously.

"Nope." Chen Mufeng shook his head like a rattle, "My father will beat me to death, he doesn't want me to practice martial arts at all, otherwise I wouldn't have come here in the middle of the night to hide from practice." If he knew that I was going to be an errand and would have to beat me to death, he would feel embarrassed at home, and even you would have to be unlucky. ”

Zhuang Rou asked, "If he doesn't let you practice martial arts, then what does he want you to do?" ”

Chen Mufeng said very unhappily: "Of course I want to study and become an official in the future, but I don't like it at all." ”

"That's right, you will go and tell your father in a while, you have figured it out after being beaten, and you will study hard in the future. I worshipped a senior of the Guozijian as a master, followed him to learn knowledge, and went out to look for him every day. Then after you come out, you can go directly to wait for me outside the Douhu County Yaya, and you don't need to change any clothes, just dress smartly. This is just right, Lu Rou directly set it for him.

"How can this work, my father will ask me which senior I am looking for, it is not okay to make up blindly, he is familiar with those people." Chen Mufeng was very afraid of his father, so he quickly refused.

Zhuang Rou glanced at him and said slowly: "Tell your father, the person you are looking for is Zhuang Xuewen of Guozijian, let him check it." ”

"Zhuang Xuewen!" Chen Mufeng was stunned, and suddenly reacted, this woman just said that her name was Zhuang Rou, "Who are you from Zhuang Xuewen!" ”

"He's my brother, do you know him?" Zhuang Rou said with a smile.

Chen Mufeng rolled his eyes, "Who doesn't know your brother among the scholars in the capital, the little gentleman of Guozijian, you can solve any difficulties with him." I heard that he also sponsored several poor students from poor families to let them study with peace of mind, and a county magistrate sent abroad last year heard that before leaving Beijing to take office, he also specially set up a banquet to thank Zhuang Xuewen for his funding. ”

"Then it's decided, you will be my follower in the future, now take me to Chen Zhongxin's residence first, I still have a case to handle." Zhuang Rou clapped her hands and stood up, since her brother is so famous, there is no problem.

Chen Mufeng didn't expect her brother to be Zhuang Xuewen, her father would definitely agree, and she would be overjoyed. His seventh brother, in order to get close to Zhuang Xuewen, asked around about his preferences and wanted to give gifts, but he didn't expect to meet him first.

He happily wanted to get dressed and take Zhuang Rou to Chen Zhongxin's residence, but he didn't want to take two steps and feel like the bones in his body were broken, and there was pain everywhere, "Oh, I have so much pain in my body, I have to find a doctor first." Girl...... No, Miss Zhuang, did you break my bones? ”

"Just call me Boss, or Sister Zhuang, what a girl." Zhuang Rou had already stood up, looked at him holding on to a stool and looked embarrassed, and said lightly, "If you don't break your bones, at most you will be bruised." Stand up when it hurts, get dressed and follow me to solve the case, and the enemy won't stop killing you on the battlefield because of your pain. I endure this little injury, and it is also a practice for yourself! ”

"Okay......" Chen Mufeng straightened his waist and put on his clothes tremblingly, thinking that as long as he survived these few days, he would not have to suffer this kind of hardship again.
