Time flies.

It was noon, the cold winter red sun shone on the county city wall of Ancheng County, a county magistrate wearing an official robe was taking a group of yacha to patrol the city, and the people who came in and out under the city wall occasionally looked up to see, some of them were surprised, and some of them were surprised.

The county lord is patrolling the city again?

"Xu County Ling is really a good official."

"Yes, adults come to patrol the city whenever they have time. I heard that Xu County Ling will also practice the officials in the county in the afternoon, do you see the young man next to the county master, it is the black one, I heard my old Wang say, the martial arts of the next generation are amazing, and seven or eight people can't get close. ”

"You two short-sighted women know a fart, and the dumb official is just making a show for you, do you really believe it?" A man in a fur sweater held a bowl of noodles in his hand, chewed green onions in his mouth, and gritted his teeth.

The two women who had just had lunch looked over, and when they saw that it was him, they couldn't help laughing and said, "Yo, it turned out to be Second Master Ge, why, you still hate the county master for sentencing you to 30 boards." ”

"Peek at the girls' bathhouse, you deserve to be killed."

The two women glanced at the man, and the latter blew his beard and glared at him: "What is Lao Tzu peeking, Lao Tzu was just passing by, and he was pulled by those unreasonable pimpy girls, besides, let's see if I won't lose a piece of meat." ”

"Phew, you're just passing through? Are the bricks under the base of the wall stacked on their own? Did you stick the wall dust on your fingers? A woman said angrily.

These words were asked when the county government hall asked Xu County Decree about the case.

"I..." Poor Second Master Ge was speechless at the time, and now he is even more speechless, so he can only grin and eat the noodles in the bowl angrily.

The current county magistrate, but not the former county magistrate, the current Xu county order not only impartially adjudicated the case, wise and decisive, but also concerned about the people's livelihood, three days and two ends of the inspection of the county defense, at every turn to the countryside to help farmers, but also allocated county silver, road repair and wells, and piles and piles are personally involved in supervision, in just less than a month, Xu County order has been from the original big corrupt official, faint official, into a good official, the big lord of the sky.

Xu Chuan and Li Ming came down from the city wall, and his complexion has improved a lot recently, not only because he has been exercising hard since he got the Fa and often walking around the county town, but also because his public opinion roots finally became positive yesterday! Fame has also gone from negative to 60.

Public opinion and prestige complement each other, the people think you are good, they will naturally compete to praise you, and the people think you are bad, then the prestige will be greatly reduced, and everyone shouts and beats.

"When public opinion increases, my roots and bones also improve, my prestige increases, and my understanding also increases."

Xu Chuan has been getting the method for a long time, but now, he is just practicing swordsmanship and practicing moves, at the beginning, it does feel difficult, but now he feels that many people who don't know the moves, they can easily understand it, and they can even touch the bypass.

"Eighteen kinds of swordsmanship, the most difficult is the "Remnant Sword Style", obviously there is only one style, but it contains a full thirty-six kinds of sword moves, and I only understand three of them now. "Ordinary swordsmanship, boxing, martial arts, pay attention to diligent study and hard practice, but a little to the next level, that is to pay attention to understanding.

Li ming... has only mastered the most superficial "King Kong Sword Technique". So the two of them simply competed with swords, and Li Ming was not Xu Chuan's opponent.

Of course, it's just swordsmanship.

Internal Strength Method. Xu Chuan has long studied the rolling melons in the sea and is ripe, but he has never cultivated because of his congenital lack of heart.

"I've been eating yang fruit recently, and it does have the effect of strengthening the body, but it has no effect of making up for the defects of the body."

Xu Chuan's face was heavy.

Back in the county office, Su Qing had already prepared the mutton soup to warm her body, Xu Chuan smiled when she saw Su Qing, and hurriedly walked over, took a sip of the mutton soup, and felt that the whole person's chest had abundant heat.

Li Ming stood aside with a serious face, and Su Qing had already prepared a bowl for him. However, Li Ming did not squint, and his face was serious.

"Brother Li, don't pretend." Xu Chuan glanced at him and quipped.

The seriousness on Li Ming's face disappeared in an instant, and turned into a simple and gentle look, it turned out to be Xu Chuan's guard, Li Ming had not adapted to this position at first, and it was inevitable to grovel when he saw anyone, that is, the officials who trained the county government officials were a little lacking in confidence, so Xu Chuan told him to be more serious and ruthless to people, so he pretended to be such a picture.

In fact, the effect is quite good, his skin is dark, plus his face is serious, he does not smile, and he has the posture of a black-faced judge. When people see it, they can't wait to be eight feet away from him.

"Thank you, Miss Su." Li Ming took the mutton soup and said with a humble smile.

Su Qing sat beside Xu Chuan and said, "Chuan'er, I have already practiced the first layer of the Qi Refining Method that you passed on to me a few days ago. ”

Xu Chuan was stunned, and Li Ming was also stunned, looking at Su Qing in surprise.

"Done?"

Xu Chuan passed on Su Qing's Qi refining method, of course, it is the divine phase refining Qigong, refining Qi can strengthen the body, stay and nourish the face, Xu Chuan passed the first three layers to Su Qing after Li Ming's consent. But... How long has it been since you reached the first level?

"So fast?" Li Ming's eyes were full of disbelief.

Because of the lack of heart, the adult has not yet practiced, and only knows that he attaches great importance to understanding, but he grew up from a snack of yang fruit, with a solid foundation, infinite strength, and a great body, and now he has just reached the first level.

"I didn't see that Aunt Su still has the talent for cultivation." Xu Chuan said with a smile, happy for Aunt Su.

At the same time, I am also secretly encouraging in my heart that I must solve the problem of my congenital heart disease as soon as possible and embark on the path of cultivation.

Li Ming was purely ashamed, his Qi Refining Method's cultivation speed was not as fast as a woman's. Swordsmanship is not as good as that of adults... It's really a shame for my own ancestors.

After lunch, Xu Chuan and Li Ming went out, and after Su Qing ordered someone to clean up, he returned to the room alone.

"I thought that Chuan'er would not get in touch with cultivation so quickly, but I didn't expect to get the Fa. It seems that Chuan'er's illness can't be delayed. Su Qing sat in front of the window, looking at the sunlight outside the window, with a smile on her face: "The Luo brothers and sisters, they are the descendants of the old man of the Divine Needle, and they will definitely be able to cure Chuan'er, but the score is not small, hum." ”

Su Qing waved her hand, and the doors and windows were closed, but the difference was that the room was already empty.

……

Afternoon

Xu Chuan was dressed in cloth clothes and Li Ming, who was carrying a long sword, walking on the street, in order to quickly improve public opinion, Xu Chuan made private interviews at every turn, and sat in the county yamen without exposure. How can public opinion be improved?

"Help, help, help me!"

Suddenly, a cry for help came from the side street in the distance, and the voice was miserable and sharp, startling Xu Chuan. Hurriedly followed the sound and looked, it turned out to be a ragged girl, with blood dripping from her chest, running down the street with her hair scattered, shouting for help.

didn't have time to think about it, Xu Chuan hurriedly ran towards the girl, and Li Ming beside him was stunned for a moment, and then followed.

The woman also seemed to see Xu Chuan, recognized his identity at a glance, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly rushed over and shouted: "Lord Xu, Lord Xu, please save me, I am the daughter of the wine seller in the east of the city, you save me, save my father." ”

Xu Chuan saw that the injury on her chest was quite serious, and hurriedly wanted to go over to help, and at the same time said:

"Girl, don't be in a hurry, I'll first..."

Before the words fell, Xu Chuan's words had come to an abrupt end. His outstretched palm passed straight through the girl's body.

"My lord, you..." Li Ming beside him looked at him with a puzzled face.

Passers-by also looked at him in amazement. It's like looking at a madman...

Xu Chuan swallowed.

"Let's go, go to the Han's house in the east of the city."

When the words fell, he had already rushed out first, because of taking Yang Guo, Xu Chuan's physical qualities in all aspects were indeed enhanced a lot except for his heart.

There is only one wine seller in the east of the city, the restaurant's surname is Xu, and there is a daughter. Their family's wine is good, and their daughter is also well-born, well-behaved and sensible, and has a good reputation.

Behind the façade of the brewery on the street is a small brewing courtyard.

A fat figure was rolling out of the courtyard, his body was fat, but his physique was tall and strong, his face was full of steel needle-like beard, and a pair of eyes flashed with a fierce light. "A bunch of bastards, and you still want to do something with me? How good it is to accompany Lao Tzu obediently, hehe, the mother's skin is so tender, and it is so tender when she loses her breath... And those two dead ghosts, dare to do something with Lao Tzu..."He gasped, and in his hand he carried a blood-dripping tiger-headed knife.

Suddenly, his footsteps stopped, and two figures blocked the mouth of the alley, daring to stand in his way?

"Which two bastards, get out of the way, Lao Tzu is the head of the Tiger Dart Bureau, Qiu Jinhu! Get lost! ”

"Damn it." Xu Chuan saw the bloody footprints one by one behind him through the body of the big man in front of him, and also saw the ferocious aura of blood dripping from the big knife. Catching a glimpse of the girl who crawled out of the courtyard and the other two souls with teeth and claws, Xu Chuan's eyes were red.

In broad daylight, under the rule of his county, he dared to commit such a murderous act!

The autumn golden tiger sneered and waved the tiger-headed broadsword in his hand and rushed over.

"Leave it to me, my lord." Li Ming let out a low snort, the figure had already rushed out like a lone wolf, the sword in his hand had been pulled out, this pull, the speed was as fast as thunder, it was a heavy sword, a sword stabbed out, Qiu Jinhu's eyes narrowed, as if he felt the danger, and hurriedly resisted with a horizontal knife.

But...

"Peng!"

A heavy sword, slamming the ground Qiu Jinhu's eyes widened instantly, and his fat and strong body, which was three hundred pounds, actually flew out of the air and smashed heavily on the wall bricks, the wall fell, and the person fell.

Qiu Jinhu was stunned by a sword, he is also a fourfold person of the acquired qi refining, and his strength is not weak... But that sword was less like a sword, more like a sledgehammer! Half of his body was numb when he hit the ground!

Through the collapsed courtyard wall, they saw the tragic situation in the courtyard at a glance, the bodies of the wine seller and his wife were on display, and half of the wine seller's body was split in two, and in front of the door, there was a young girl lying on her back, and there was a bloody hole in the girl's chest, which was still bleeding.

"Killed, killed!"

"Express officer."

"Reporter? This is not the county master. ”

"Ah, catch the thief."

As soon as the people saw that the county lord was there, they suddenly became confident and rushed towards the autumn golden tiger that fell there.

Xu Chuan looked at the three souls standing next to the corpses in the courtyard, and said solemnly: "Don't worry, I will definitely seek justice for you." ”
