Chapter 642: A White Man
When the man on the beam was worried, Guan Xinrui finally came back, and when he saw that the door of the study was open, he was slightly shocked and walked over quickly.
"Squeak~", the door of the study was opened, but Guan Xinrui saw that it was his wife waiting in the study, and his heart suddenly relaxed a lot.
"Madam, it turns out that you are here, you have been waiting for a long time, and you are in a hurry to deal with some official business just now."
Guan Xinrui came over to ask for warmth, but his wife Liu sat there without saying a word, and the maid on the side did not dare to speak.
Guan Xinrui was slightly stunned, took a few steps closer and reached out to touch his wife, but was pushed away by the other party with his hand, and still didn't say a word.
"What's wrong with you, lady? Qiao'er, what's wrong with her, madam? ”
The maid on the side looked at the county order and shook her head to say that she didn't know, Guan Xinrui was puzzled, but saw that his wife looked at the bookcase over there, and then stood up.
Liu walked to the bookcase, reached out and picked up the documents on it and looked at Guan Xinrui.
"Husband, you are a well-educated person with ideals and ambitions, and I was also admired by your integrity and talent at the beginning, but now, it is obviously a murder case, how can you write such a document?"
Guan Xinrui frowned, walked to his wife's side and took the paperwork in her hand, and sighed slightly.
"The situation in the court officialdom is complicated, since the dragon scales have appeared in my Haiyu County, it is very likely that they will still be in the hands of the royal family in the end, and this is an opportunity for the husband."
As he spoke, Guan Xinrui took the crossed-out document and said.
"It's naturally no problem to write like this, but this makes the dragon scales contaminated with bad luck, and the top won't care about the murder of a family, so it's better to make the document look better. If my father-in-law were here, he would have agreed with me. ”
Guan Xinrui brought out Liu's father, who suddenly looked unhappy and looked at him with a frown.
"My father's officialdom is the general trend of the DPRK and the central government, you are just a small local county magistrate and you have no longer had the original intention, even if you are promoted to a high position, are you still the same Guan Xinrui as before?"
Seeing that his wife seemed to be really angry, Guan Xinrui thought about it, sometimes frowning and sometimes sighing, and after a long time, his expression improved, and he held his wife's shoulders with both hands and turned her body to face herself, looking at her seriously.
"Madame! You're right! If you have a wife like this, what more can you ask for, a sentence is like a slap in the face, I didn't learn a few percent of my father-in-law's righteousness, but only cared about my own officialdom and sleekness, which is really worthy of the teachings of the sages! ”
After that, he took the pen on the pen holder, dipped it in ink, and crossed the Chinese book in his hand.
"This article was discarded and rewritten for my husband!"
Liu's brows furrowed, and a smile appeared on his face.
"This is the husband I know! Today, after making a healthy soup, it's almost time for a meal, so let's go over together! ”
"Good! Madame go over first, I'll clean up and come!" ”
"Hmm!"
Liu took the maid away, Guan Xinrui sent them to the door of the study, then closed the door, walked quickly to the corner of the bookshelf, and found the wooden box where the dragon scales were placed, obviously the same as when he left, everything was safe and sound.
It didn't take long for Guan Xinrui to leave, but he left with a wooden box.
When the study was quiet, the masked man hiding on the beam still did not relax, he looked carefully around the study, it was obvious that he was not looking at a living person at the moment, but watching out for what he had just felt.
I heard that places such as the county government are sheltered by the imperial court, and generally speaking, ghosts are difficult to enter, but today the man feels that this kind of rumor is not very credible.
After waiting for a while, to confirm that there was no danger in the study, the man jumped to the ground lightly, the evil thing should be closely related to the dragon scales, since the dragon scales were taken away, then the study will be fine.
The man's name is Chai Wang, his martial arts are good, and he doesn't think he is a righteous way, with his kung fu, he can easily snatch the dragon scales from Guan Xinrui's hands just now.
But now, Chai Wang has extinguished the idea of the dragon scales below, and it is obvious that the dragon scales of the county government attract evil, and if you want to take it, you will also go to get the Zhou family's piece.
In fact, Chai Wang is also a person with outstanding spiritual sense, and because of this, he has had strange dreams entrusted by people before.
Chai Wang didn't think much about it, opened the door of the study and walked out quietly, but he was only outside, and his heart was shocked again.
In the middle of the courtyard in the evening, there was a man in a black robe standing in the rain, and when Chai Wang came out, the man also looked at him, which made Chai Wang see the man's appearance clearly.
This man is tall and has a calm face with a bit of breathtaking, and his black beard is not thick, but it is as long as a forearm, and he doesn't look like an ordinary person anyway.
Just by being glanced at, Chai Wang's body was slightly chilled, this chill was even far better than the moment when he saw the ghost just now, and it was also at this moment that his eyes fell to the feet of the man in black, and he stared slightly.
The rain from the sky formed a shallow ring of water at the man's feet, and the surrounding water swirled slightly at his feet as if it were about to converge around the man.
This kind of look, this feeling, the key is that it is also so evil, which makes Chai Wang think of the person he met the night before.
The silence lasted for about three breaths, but Chai Wang was holding his breath at this moment.
Suddenly, the man on the opposite side stretched out his hand in this direction, and five claws were slightly clawed.
"Woohoo."
A gust of wind rolled upside down, Chai Wang's feet rose off the ground in an instant, his body also lost his balance, and flew towards the man opposite.
It's this trick again!
Compared with last time, this will be considered to be prepared, at least the person can still move his hand in the air, and when he was nervous, he actually took out three silver needles with cinnabar and shot forward.
The silver needle was in the shape of a pin, and with the wind of the inverted wind, it shot directly into the palm of the man opposite, which was also the instinctive first reaction of Chai Wang's own intuition.
"呲呲呲"
The man on the opposite side pinched his right hand, and the three silver needles were directly pinched in his hand, and Chai Wang, who had already flown into the air, also fell, but he waved two palms in the air and forcibly twisted his body.
"Smack~"
His feet landed on the ground in the courtyard, making some splashes, and his body shook and took a few steps back, looking ahead with a wary expression.
"Huh?"
With this sentence in black, a playful smile appeared on his face, but this smile brought Chai Wang's monstrous and terrifying pressure, and the whole person seemed to be deprived of all perception in an instant, his body stiffened and his face became pale.
I want to move, but I can't do it at all, and I can even say that I just want to do it but don't dare to put it into action.
It's the oppression that comes with the extreme fear of it.
What is it, what is it, a ghost, a monster?
At the moment when the thoughts in his mind were frightened and complicated, the man in black shirt who was still a little far away suddenly shrank and stepped out in front of Chai Wang.
"You've seen that, haven't you?"
Chai Wang's face didn't know whether it was wet by the rain falling from the sky, or soaked with more sweat, his body trembled slightly, his eyes widened, he didn't know if the other party was asking about the grab just now or the state at the moment.
"What else have you seen?"
It was just a few words, Chai Wang didn't even say anything, just made a simple statement, and the black shirt seemed to lose interest.
Finally, the man took a few steps forward, and a little mist filled the air, and it was as if the whole person had turned into mist and dissipated in the rain.
Chai Wang, who couldn't move, also recovered, and the whole person was paralyzed in the rain.
After being drenched by the cold rain for a while, Chai Wang finally eased up, did not dare to stay any longer, jumped up with light skills, and quickly escaped from the county office.
This time, Chai Wang can already confirm that he has met a monster, the kind of monster that can make him die without a place to bury himself with his thoughts!
In a restaurant on the street outside the county office, Yi Shuyuan, who was cooking rice, was suddenly shocked, and his real body disappeared from his seat almost instantly, only transforming into a fake body and sitting in place.
"Shop, checkout!"
The fake body put down the chopsticks and stood up, under his greeting, and there were not many customers in the store at this time, the store immediately came over, but when he looked at the dishes on the table, he was stunned for a moment, and he didn't move a few bites at all.
"Guest, but the food is not to your liking?"
Yi Shuyuan shook his head.
"It's not that the food is unpalatable, but I suddenly remembered something important, and it was too late to eat, a total of one hundred and thirty Wen, all here."
Yi Shuyuan took out some of the copper coins that were exchanged for here, some were five and some were one penny, and he left his seat after speaking.
"Alas, the guest officer walks slowly, and comes often~~~"
The shopkeeper watched the customer leave, frowned knowingly when he collected the money, and then looked back at the customer who had already left.
"How did he know it was one hundred and thirty?"
Look at the hanging menu again, the store patted his head, the feeling is unforgettable, and it is okay to remember it at a glance?
At this moment, the transfiguration body walked faster and faster, and in just a moment, it came to the outside of the street and alley on the side of the county office, where the real Yi Shuyuan had stood still for a while, and the Yi Shuyuan who came over turned into a phantom and merged into the real body.
Yi Shuyuan squinted slightly at the inside of the county office.
"Sir, look over there"
Gray Mian stretched out his paws and pointed to some places around, Yi Shuyuan also looked in the direction it was pointing, under some trees on the edge of the county office, and even in front of some houses, there were many birds at this moment, including larks and house swallows.
These birds were frightened and fell at that moment, and they were still unable to take off due to panic, but they did not lose their breath.
"What a strong dragon might!"
"Sir, do you mean that we are hiding a hand? When I went to Beihai, I intentionally or unintentionally revealed that you weren't here! ”
Gray Mian's brain moved quickly, and Yi Shuyuan also nodded slightly, his eyes swept around, and at this moment, everything around him should be used as the background color and make an instantaneous change.
Streets, house numbers, trees, falling birds.
The eye swept over a place, and there was a person holding a flag and leaning in front of the door of a house, as if someone was in his home for others, and the flag was written: "Old Immortal Wonderful Hexagram".
A momentary glance rises a momentary sensation.
Yi Shuyuan's figure also changed at this moment, a faint mist filled his body, his clothes turned verdant, and there was more of a layer of gray and yellow old shorts, his long gray hair completely turned white, the scarf on his head shrank, turning into a simple wooden hairpin, and a white beard grew on his upper lip and chin.
This kind of extension change moves the whole body, but the change of the whole body is also completed in an instant.
The original Yi Shuyuan turned into an old man with a real fairy wind and bones.
The old man stood still for a while, and there was a non-obvious sound of breaking the air in the heavy rain, Chai Wang moved out from the inside of the county office, and when he looked at the four directions in the air and passed by one side of the courtyard wall, he saw a white-haired old man standing in the rain and caressing his beard.
As if sensing his gaze, the old man also turned his head to look at the air.
However, Chai Wang's figure only jumped in the air, he thought that it was very fast, and it was heavy rain, and the other party should not have seen it clearly.
——
PS: Indeed, all criticism is right.
It's already the early morning of the next day, and I'll go out at four or five o'clock in a while, and after I finish dealing with things, I will definitely resume the second watch from today, and then I will start to make up for the previous one.
Some things are just excuses, and those who are willing to listen to them and those who don't want to listen will not be compatible, and most of the joys and sorrows between people are not connected.
I still wish you good health, spend more time with your children, and see more of the elders in your family, this is the most important thing!
