Chapter Twenty-Three: Ancient and Modern

In ancient and modern times, it was originally the silver-clothed detective of the military guards in Juma City, and it was difficult to meet opponents in the same realm with a domineering and ruthless knife technique, and he won the name of "Broken Knife" on the rivers and lakes, and he was also a well-known figure in the rivers and lakes of Yulanzhou in the north.

And Bai Qianqian's husband Liu Sheng was originally the most effective iron-clad messenger under him, and his confidant loved him.

Because he has no wife and no children in his life, and Liu Sheng has lost his father and mother since he was a teenager, the two have been together for a long time and have a similar temperament, Liu Sheng worshiped Gu and Jin as his father-in-law, and Liu Sheng was also regarded as his own son.

Eight years ago, a seat was vacated for the gold-clothed arrest of Wuwei in Juma City, which was the oldest and highest martial arts officer in the Wei Institute in ancient and modern times, and this position should be in his pocket.

But in ancient and modern times, he was proud of himself, and felt that his achievements were not outstanding enough, and if he took over the position of the gold-clothed arrester, he always felt like he was given up because of his old qualifications and other silver-clothed arrests, and he did not sit comfortably enough.

At that time, it happened that the granary in the city was maliciously set on fire, and the government suspected that the northern barbarians colluded with the spies in the city, in order to cut off the grain and grass in the city first and then besiege the city, so as to invade the northern border of the empire.

There was a rumor in the entire Juma City, everyone was in danger, and everyone felt that a big war was about to break out.

And this hot potato was taken over by the ancient and modern people who were in need of merit.

He first asked other ironclad detectives to investigate the fire in the grain depot to see if he could catch the arsonist.

He also secretly sent Liu Sheng to quietly infiltrate the northern barbarians to investigate the movements of the barbarians and find out whether the barbarians had the intention of invading the northern borders of the empire.

In ancient and modern times, he did this in order to accumulate credit for Liu Sheng, and wanted to let Liu Sheng sit in his position after he was promoted to Jinyi and arrested.

And it is normal for the Tian Yuan Empire and the barbarians to send spies to each other to investigate each other's reality and reality, and there should not be any danger with Liu Sheng's skills.

But I don't know if it was the bad luck of the ancient and modern times and Liu Sheng, or the barbarian side had a plan, Liu Sheng had just infiltrated the barbarian not long ago, and he met the martial arts master Baoyin Batu of the barbarian Ning Dan Realm, and Baoyin Batu beheaded Liu Sheng in the name of committing a border and sent him back to Juma City.

Bai Qianqian was stimulated to give birth prematurely, and in ancient and modern times, like a mad tiger rushing out of the city to fight with Baoyin Batu, but he was not Baoyin Batu's opponent at all, and he was still in charge of the Yuyi investigation in Juma City to save him in time and repelled Baoyin Batu.

But at this time, Gu Jinlai had already broken his limbs, and the dantian qi sea was damaged, and he had great hopes of condensing qi into a pill, and Gu Jinlai, who had advanced to the martial arts master of the Ning Dan realm, and even the great master of the Pogang Realm, had completely become a wasted person.

Cheng Jingling also knew for the first time from ancient and modern times that the martial arts realm in this realm is after forging the body and refining blood, it is to wash the marrow, condense the pill, and break the gang.

The Ning Dan Realm is to condense the blood pill in the sea of qi, and from then on it is beyond the mundane, and can control the power of heaven and earth to a certain extent, and can be called a martial arts master.

And the Gang Realm is full of Gang Qi that is not broken or damaged, can fly in the air, and can stimulate the Gang Qi to take the enemy's head from a distance of thousands of kilometers, and he is a martial arts master.

Cheng Jingling converted it in his heart, according to the strength level of the heavens and all worlds, the Ning Dan Realm is the fourth order, and the Pogang Realm is the fifth order, which is the "middle third order" in Brother Nag's mouth, no wonder it is different from the lower third order, and can be called a master and a grandmaster.

"My righteous son died tragically because of my greed, and I also became a waste person because of my impulsiveness, and I will never have a chance to avenge my righteous son in the future." When Gu and Jin talked about this, his voice was already choked, his old tears were crisscrossed, and his tone was full of remorse: "Ah Sheng has actually told me a long time ago that Qianqian is about to give birth, and he wants to live a peaceful life as a family of three in the future, and he doesn't want to rush to the front line to go out on a mission, participate in the disputes in the rivers and lakes, and lick the blood on the tip of the knife." It's me, it's me who persuaded him, as long as he is promoted to the silver-clothed arrest, he can rarely go out on tasks, and he can have better treatment, giving Qianqian and the child a better life. The last time, as long as I finish this task, I will be promoted to the position of the golden coat, and he will be able to sit in the position of the silver-clothed detective, and he will be able to live a peaceful and stable life at that time, I didn't expect ......"

Looking at the appearance of broken liver and intestines in ancient and modern times, Cheng Jingling could feel the grief in his heart, but he didn't know how to comfort him.

Fortunately, ancient and modern times didn't expect him to comfort him, more like he wanted to find someone to talk to through the strength of wine, and continued to himself: "When Qianqian was just pregnant, I told Ah Sheng that when the child was born, we would open the walls of the six and seven households, and the family lived together, watching the child grow up slowly, but I didn't expect ...... Alas, when she was just injured by Baoyin Batu, Qianqian had to take care of Xiao Qingyan, who was born prematurely and was weak, and she also had to take time to visit and take care of me, a damn old man. In front of me, she never mentioned Ah Sheng, but I could feel that she complained about me, blamed me for refusing to let Ah Sheng live a plain and safe life with her, and blamed me for the mission I sent to cause Ah Sheng's tragic death. Every time I see Qianqian and Xiao Qingyan, I hate myself for not being directly killed by Baoyin Batu at that time! Later, after the injury was healed, I moved to live in this Wenwutang, and I never went back to the other end of West Eighth Street, and I didn't have the face to go back, I didn't have the face to see Qianqian, and I didn't have the face to see Xiao Qingyan, I was afraid that she would ask me where her father was......"

Cheng Jingling didn't interject, just listened quietly and chose to be a good listener. Only when ancient and modern self-drinking and borrowing wine to kill their sorrows, silently follow with a sip of wine.

When Gu Jinlai finished telling all the stories about himself and Bai Qianqian's family, a whole pot of wine had already made the two of them drink a lot.

Cheng Jingling, who hadn't drunk much before, was only a little drunk, and he could clearly feel that the wine was consumed by the qi and blood after entering the body, and it didn't have much impact on himself.

But in ancient and modern times, I don't know if it's because I want to get drunk or because of the injuries on my body, I'm already drunk, and the whole person is groggy.

"Alas!"

Sighing, Cheng Jingling first helped Gu Jinlai into the bedroom bed, took off his coat and covered the quilt for him, and settled down. He went to clean up the messy table again, washed the empty plates, and did not put away the finished dishes.

Then he left the martial arts hall.

It was getting late, but fortunately there were still cars on the street.

The distance between Jiwuwei and West Eighth Street is not too far, you only need to take a tour bus and walk a few more steps, no need to transfer.

After getting off the bus at the nearest parking spot to West Eighth Street, Cheng Jingling walked leisurely towards his new home, enjoying the scenery of the streets along the way as he walked.

He had never been so at ease before.

On the street not far from the first lane of West Eighth Street, Cheng Jingling saw what Bai Qianqian said about the "white garment shop", the store is not big or small, and the shopkeeper and small servant are hired inside, and they are busy greeting customers, and the business of watching the flow of customers should be good.

And Bai Qianqian, who was dressed in a pink and white moon dress, was like a begonia flower, standing quietly behind the counter, looking down and quietly checking what she was reading, thinking that it should be an account book.

The white garment shop was opened by Bai Qianqian herself after Liu Sheng's death.

The reason why it is called this name, Cheng Jingling guessed that it was because "Liu" and "Liu" had the same sound, and the two words "Liu" just accounted for the surnames of Bai Qianqian and Liu Sheng. The second is "blank", which also means that Liu Sheng left Bai Qianqian's mother and daughter in this world, and the two of them have a longing for Liu Sheng.

Although he saw Bai Qianqian in the store, Cheng Jingling didn't go in to say hello.

Because if Bai Qianqian asked him to bring it, he would have brought it. But until he got too drunk, he didn't give him an answer whether he would come back to visit, so he didn't know how to tell Bai Qianqian.

went home directly, locked the courtyard door, and after briefly cleaning himself, Cheng Jingling lay on the bed and opened the Zhutian Booster Login.

In ancient and modern times, it will take at least two or three days before the entry notice of the anti-military guard will come down.

Cheng Jingling is ready to take advantage of these two or three days to take over the training and accumulate more tokens in case of emergency.
