Chapter 66: Stay away from officialdom
"Why do you always sell off with me, is there anything you can say directly?" Zheng Qian is very disgusted that the master is always like this, since the last time he was specially called over to be beaten, he has a long memory, and he will not go to anything about this old immortal traitor.
Ning Pingqiu took a deep breath and said, "I said it, you'll know when you arrive!" ”
"Then I won't go, and the province will call me to be beaten again!"
"Hey, you kid! Okay, okay, this time it's not for you to be beaten in the past, three days ago, General Cheng Fei asked Huang Zhongtian to thoroughly investigate the matter of the dementor incense, and now the three days have arrived, but the dementor incense is still overflowing, not only has it not decreased, but it has increased a lot, so Cheng Fei called me and confronted Huang Zhongtian. ”
Zheng Qian nodded, if this is the case, then you can really go and take a look, after all, General Cheng Fei is present, and there is nothing to do at the beginning.
Moreover, if you want to negotiate with a big man like them, they basically don't use their fists and feet, and for them, talking is better than fists and feet.
Zheng Qian said to him: "Okay, then I'll go with you this afternoon!" ”
"Hmm!"
At noon, Zheng Qian ate two bowls of noodles at Ning Pingqiu's house, and complained that he didn't do any work, so much he ate!
Zheng Qian said: "When you went to Yichun Tower, why didn't you see such a pick? ”
Ning Pingqiu put down the chopsticks in his hand and said, "Little rabbit cub, if you are mentioning this matter, don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite!" ”
"Hey, you're an old immortal, I also called for 150,000 yuan for you!"
"But you still owe me 350,000!"
"I... I've never seen such a old man like you! ”
Zheng Qian didn't want to talk nonsense with him, this old immortal dog couldn't spit out ivory in his mouth at all.
After eating, Ning Pingqiu did not rest, and directly took Zheng Qian to Huang Zhongtian's mansion, and after arriving, he found that Cheng Fei was already waiting at the door.
Ning Pingqiu walked over and said, "General Cheng Fei, it's not okay for you to keep not eating." ”
"What's not going to work, it's already a ghost anyway, besides, if the person surnamed Huang can handle things well, won't I be able to eat? There's a lot of pressure on me, and I don't know where to start investigating this. ”
"Huang Zhongtian didn't do anything?"
General Cheng Fei shook his head and said, "No, nothing has been done, now there are people in the west of the city who are blatantly selling soul incense at night!" ”
"What kind of person is so bold that he dares to do this kind of business directly!" Ning Pingqiu said.
"I don't know, I didn't give me any clues above, I just told me to check it directly, and it must be found out within five days."
As soon as General Cheng Fei finished speaking, a male ghost bumped into Zheng Qian in a daze, and scolded and said, "Who, damn it, don't have long eyes, don't you know if you hit Lao Tzu?" ”
Zheng Qian wanted to take out the nunchucks from his arms, but was stopped by Ning Pingqiu, who shook his head and did not speak.
But this person didn't give up, and directly grabbed Zheng Gan's neck and said, "What the hell do you mean?" Well, what the hell do you mean you tell me, hit Lao Tzu and don't say a word? Who the are you to yourself or something, Lao Tzu said to beat you and beat you believe it or not! Hey, fucking look at me, fucking me..."
After saying that, the ghost raised his fist and wanted to hit the young man, but as soon as the fist was raised, the male ghost turned into a wisp of green smoke, and a kedan fell to the ground.
Zheng Qian was taken aback and said, "Damn, what's the situation!" Why did you just go away? ”
Ning Pingqiu said: "I didn't let you do it just now, it's because this ghost is dying, if you do it, then the responsibility will be all yours, understand?" ”
Zheng Qian nodded, this ghost had just died, and a woman's cry came from not far away: "Help, help, crazy, crazy, my husband is crazy, he wants to kill me, help!" ”
Then I saw an official errand with a yin qi in his hand, chasing the crying woman.
But chasing and chasing, this official errand also turned into a wisp of green smoke.
"My God, the officials have not been spared?" Zheng Qian said.
"Now, you know why, the west district of the city has indeed become a mess." Ning Pingqiu said.
Zheng Qian nodded and did not speak.
Ning Pingqiu glanced at Cheng Fei and said, "Let's go in!" ”
General Cheng Fei said, "Wait! ”
"What are you waiting for?"
"Don't worry, we have to discuss, if Huang Zhongtian refuses to investigate this matter, what should we do?"
Ning Pingqiu sighed and said, "Then what else can I do, you can check it yourself!" ”
"I don't know the clues, and I don't have a clue, where to check?"
Ning Pingqiu thought for a while and said, "General Cheng Fei, actually, I think you are looking for Huang Zhongtian this afternoon, just to do it too much!" ”
"Why do you say that?"
"You think, it's been three days, and there has been no progress at all in the matter of the soul incense, this Huang Zhongtian is clear that he just doesn't want to investigate, then you go to him now, he must have prepared a lot of reasons to wait for you, in fact, it's useless to look for him!"
"So what else can I do? Well? Things have come to this point, what else can be done? The above is urgent, and I won't be able to deal with it when the time comes! ”
Ning Pingqiu didn't speak, and went directly into Huang Zhongtian's mansion.
After coming in, Huang Zhongtian was drinking tea in the courtyard, and when he saw them coming, he smiled and said, "Hey, General Cheng Fei, Ning Daochang, and Brother Zheng Qian, you are all here, come and come, taste my good tea, it's very good!" ”
Cheng Fei walked directly in front of Huang Zhongtian and asked loudly: "Lord Huang, how did you promise me three days ago?" Well? Why is there no progress in the matter of the soul incense now, what do you do as a city patrol imperial historian, and now the streets are all messed up, do you know? ”
Huang Zhongtian glanced at Cheng Fei and said, "General don't worry, actually, it's not that I didn't check this matter, you have spoken, can I not investigate?" Besides, all of my officials and messengers have inhaled soul incense, so can I stand by and watch? ”
"What do you mean?" General Cheng Fei said.
"Come, General, you sit down first, let's talk while we have tea!"
"It's all at this time, you still have the heart to drink tea!"
Huang Zhongtian's subordinates served a cup of tea to one of us, and then Huang Zhongtian said: "General Cheng Fei, I know, you are in a hurry, but you have to know that this soul incense was brought from the world, and this kind of thing is not allowed to be sloppy, so I checked carefully, in the past three days, there is really a clue." ”
"What clues?"
"I saw with my own eyes that Lord He Shen and Lord gave some dementor incense to a ghost, and that ghost handed Lord He some money, General Cheng Fei, you also know that Lord He is my top boss, since this matter has something to do with him, do you think I can still investigate?"
"What about the people in the western part of the city? You're just watching them suck this thing? ”
Huang Zhongtian smiled, it seems that his conjecture is right, the reason why the above asked Cheng Fei to be responsible for this matter is that he doesn't want the truth of this matter to be revealed, because Cheng Fei is just a martial artist, he doesn't think about anything, and let him investigate the case, it's just a joke!
At this time, Ning Pingqiu said: "What does Lord Huang mean, this matter is related to adults?" ”
"I didn't say that, I just saw it. You think, the ghost who bought the dementor incense from the lord may not be trading, and the lord may just give the dementor incense he collected to the ghost, and then let the ghost go to the evil dog village to destroy it! ”
"You talk nonsense!" General Cheng Fei said: "Then why does that ghost still give money to Lord He!" ”
Huang Zhongtian took a sip of tea, smiled and said to Cheng Fei: "General Cheng Fei, you may not know very well, even if you help the adults with things, you have to give him some filial piety, and the adults will repay you in the official position in the future!" ”
"You mean, that ghost is spending money to buy officials?"
Huang Zhongtian thought for a while and said, "I didn't say it, it's all you said!" ”
Cheng Fei was a little out of breath, he slapped the table and said, "Huang Zhongtian, let's talk about it, you just don't want to check this matter, right!" “
"It's not that I don't want to check, General Cheng Fei, you are a battle-hardened general, and you don't know how difficult it is for us civil officials to live, alas, if you offend Lord He, there are so many people in my family, it is estimated that there is no food to eat!"
Cheng Fei didn't know what to say, so he said directly to Ning Pingqiu: "Let's go, Ning Daochang!" ”
Huang Zhongtian said with a smile in the back: "If you go slowly, you won't send it, General Cheng Fei!" ”
After going out, Cheng Fei was very angry, he said: "I don't believe it, I don't understand, Ning Daochang, let's go find Lord He!" ”
"Huh? General Cheng Fei, you better go by yourself! ”
"Why?"
"I'm just a cultivator, I came with you to see Huang Zhongtian because I know him myself, but I don't know adults, don't embarrass me about this officialdom!"
Cheng Fei sighed and said, "Okay, I'm not difficult for you!" ”
Then Zheng Qian followed Ning Pingqiu in the direction of home, and Cheng Fei went to find Heshen alone.
Zheng Qian asked Master, "Master, why don't you fly over with Cheng!" ”
Ning Pingqiu smiled and said, "Haven't you understood yet?" This is playing with him, when he gets to the adult, it is estimated that he will not find out anything, and if you think about it, this matter is so big, it must not be done by ordinary people, maybe it also involves the officialdom, Cheng Fei's boss sent him to investigate this matter, obviously he just doesn't want this matter to come to light, if we follow it again, it will definitely cause trouble! ”
"That's right."
"Little rabbit cub, you remember, as a cultivator, you must understand the things in the officialdom, but you must also stay away, otherwise if you say something wrong, you may be killed!"
"yes, okay!"
This sentence is still like the words of a master.
As he walked, Zheng Gan's mobile phone rang, it was Wang Jiang calling, he quickly connected, and said, "What's the matter, Team Wang?" ”
"Damn, why have you been there for the past two days, why can't you get through on the phone, you hurry up, the convoy has an accident!"
"Huh? What's wrong? ”
