Chapter 33 Zhou Ang is poor
The family is poor.
This is obvious - the people who live in Banzai Fang basically can't be any rich people.
The poor house is broken, the courtyard wall is not high, it can cover the eyes of people, the gate is also low, the thatched roof, it is almost in disrepair, the courtyard door is broken, there is no lock, just cover it casually.
Everything is very consistent with their investigation of Zhou Ang's life experience in advance.
But the more this is the case, the more it makes Gao Jing feel a little depressed.
It is not uncommon for children from poor families to study, but children from poor families do not have a clear teacher's guidance, and if they suddenly cultivate the Dao Fa, or even have mana, it often means weirdness and incident.
What's more, the corpse in his own hand, the spell that takes people's hearts and lungs without breaking the skin, is really terrifying.
Whether it was the young man's ability or the fact that there was someone standing behind him, there was no doubt that he should not be the one to be at his disposal.
Soon there were footsteps in the courtyard, and a calm voice said, "Exactly, please wait." ”
Gao Jing took a deep breath, a smile slowly appeared on his face, and waited calmly.
"It's okay, I'm an official. He thought to himself.
The door opened, and the eight-foot-long and beautiful-looking young man saw Gao Jing, obviously stunned for a moment, that look did not seem to be fake, but Gao Jing didn't dare to believe that the county Zhu Yamen had so many actions in Wansui Fang today, including the things that Du Yi took people to watch and identify, the other party would know nothing.
That's basically impossible.
A cultivator who could easily kill the Eight-Rank Fox Demon could not be careless to that extent about the changes in the environment around him—as long as he wanted to know, of course he could know.
And regardless of whether the person who made the shot was the scholar in front of him, he probably already knew it.
Unless he is really as everyone guessed before, it is also possible that he just picked up a dead fox by shit luck, and he doesn't know anything about the fox being actually a fox fairy.
But in Gao Jing's view, that is also almost impossible.
At this time, the young man said: "It's Zhou Ang below, but the county Zhu is coming to me?"
Gao Jing smiled, carried the bag and reluctantly arched his hand, and said: "The official's surname is Gao, his name is Jing, and his name is Anping." Brother Zhou can call me the word table. ”
From the official to the people, this is an extremely polite wording and attitude.
And for people who read, exchanging words is not only polite, but also a kind of goodwill and closeness - calling each other the table words is definitely much closer than you call me "Zhou Sheng" and I call you "County Zhu".
Zhou Ang glanced at the bag in his hand when he heard this, and seemed to smile as well, but he looked a little reluctant.
But then he opened the door completely, sideways to open the door, and said with a smile: "I am repairing the word." Brother Anping, please come in. It's just thatched thatched cottages, and the hospitality is not good, so I hope you forgive me. ”
"Excuse me!"
Gao Jing Gao Anping nodded and walked into the courtyard.
This yard ...... How to say it, just like the imagination, and just like the impression that the poor family should look like.
Grow some vegetables and eat them yourself, raise a few chickens to sell eggs, and dry the clothes of the whole yard.
There is no decent place to entertain guests, but Zhou Ang does not seem to have any sense of shame and inferiority because his family is very poor, he calmly invites the guests to sit down on the low stool where the family sits during dinner, and does not even offer a sip of tea, but just said: "The poor family is poor and can't afford tea, please Brother Anping sit for a while, and I will boil some boiling water to serve the guests." As he spoke, he stood up.
But Gao Jing immediately said: "Don't bother!"
Seeing Zhou Ang looking over, he smiled and said, "Brother Zi, please take a seat, but there are some things to ask as usual, and it is really a business matter, so I have to do it, Brother Zi only needs to answer a few questions from the official, and there is no need to be polite." ...... You may be seated!"
Zhou Ang thought about it and calmly turned around and sat down.
Then, he couldn't help but glance at the cloth bag in Gao Jing's hand again, and asked with a smile: "That's what Brother Anping said, right?
"Uh......"
Gao Jing was shocked when he heard this.
It's not completely unexpected, it's just that Gao Jing didn't expect that Zhou Ang would really be so calm.
But soon, he smiled, picked up the bag, and laughed self-deprecatingly: "It's a little stinky." ”
Zhou Ang also smiled and said, "Brother Anping wants to ask something, just ask." ”
The other party's frank and calm attitude made Gao Jing pause for a moment before he said slowly: "Since Brother Zixiu recognized this fox through the bag, he must know everything about my intentions." So, this demon fox ......"
"I killed it!" Zhou Ang said calmly.
Gao Jing instantly raised his head and stared at Zhou Ang's eyes.
Looking at each other, Zhou Ang's eyes were clear, revealing an indescribable calmness.
I only heard him say: "This demon fox fell in love with me, and I was really helpless, so I had to kill it easily! This should be ...... It's not illegal, is it?"
This is certainly not illegal.
Gao Jing smiled, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Brother Zixiu may not know, if you take something to our county Zhu Yamen, you can get a higher reward!"
"Oh, is it?" Zhou Ang looked very interested.
Gao Jing then explained: "Monsters attack the people, there are many disasters, the light is to go to a young man, the worst is to affect the whole family, this county is responsible for killing the demons and evil in the territory." Every year in the evaluation, depending on the amount of the obtained, there are some rewards sent down, like this eight-grade demon fox, once killed, the county can generally take out a hundred pieces of up and down, as a reward and reward. ”
"Oh......" Zhou Ang nodded, "I see." ”
Gao Jing hesitated again when he heard this, and said, "If Brother Zhou has anything in the future, you can go to Zhu Yamen in Chengde County to find me." ”
Zhou Ang nodded again, but laughed again, and said, "I'm afraid that not so many monsters take the initiative to come to me, right?
After a pause, he said, "I've been a little busy lately. ”
"Oh?" Gao Jing asked, "I don't know what Brother Zhou is busy with?"
Zhou Ang smiled, pointed to the courtyard, and said with a smile: "As a son of man, it is really ashamed to let my mother and sister live so badly all the time." I've been trying to figure out how to make money lately. ”
Hearing this, Gao Jing subconsciously looked inside and outside the room, and said with a smile: "Brother Zixiu's residence is indeed too simple. ”
So Zhou Ang smiled and said, "Take a look, save up some money, I will go out to practice in the morning and come back in the afternoon to copy the scriptures." It is the Diamond Sutra. Jing'anfang Chen's family, Brother Anping knows, right? Their family has added a new little son, the old lady of the Chen family made a wish, and now she wants to repay her vow, and she wants to send manpower to copy 10,000 copies of the "Diamond Sutra" to disperse people, so as to spread Buddhism widely, I took on some of this work, and every time I copied a copy of the "Diamond Sutra", I can get 50 texts. ”
Speaking of this, he sighed, "Ten thousand copies will always be copied, but this job is gone, and there is always something new to do." When I save some more money, I will renovate this house and add some furniture, and then Brother Anping will come over for a long talk when he is free, and there will be a place to sit. ”
Gao Jing smiled, nodded, and said, "That's fine." ”
After a pause, he said, "In this case, I won't delay Brother Zixiu to copy the scriptures." ”
As he spoke, he stood up, but said again: "This fox demon, we have been pursuing it for a long time, and now Brother Jianzi has taken action to solve the troubles of one party, and it has also helped me a lot." Although Brother Zi Xiu doesn't care, since this fox demon is in my hands, there must still be Xie Jin. Later, someone will be served. ”
Zhou Ang smiled and said, "No need, I have already sold the things, even if I want to receive the reward, who should hand in the corpse and who will receive it." It has nothing to do with me. ”
"Oh, that's it!"
Gao Jing thought about it, nodded, and then arched his hand and said, "Farewell!"
Zhou Ang also gave his hand, and then sent him out.
The two said goodbye at the door, and when Zhou Ang closed the door, Gao Jing walked forward not many steps, and when his subordinates saw him come out, they immediately stopped lurking, but got up one after another to meet them, and someone took the bag in Gao Jing's hand.
At this time, Du Yi asked, "How?"
Gao Jing was silent for a moment and said, "He killed him." He confessed it himself. ”
Du Yi touched his chin, turned his head to look at Wei Ci, and then asked, "Then do we want to ......?"
Gao Jing shook his head.
After a pause, he suddenly looked at Du Yi and Wei Ci, and asked, "Ziyu, Ziyi, what do you ......say?" If it weren't for this Zhou Ang, we would have surrounded the fox demon ourselves and wanted to kill it...... What is the success or failure?"
It's a strange question, but it's not surprising.
Du Yi and Wei Ci glanced at each other, but in the end, Wei Ci took the initiative to speak and replied: "I'm afraid the price will have to come out a little, this demon fox is already eight grades, I'm afraid it is not shallow." ”
Du Yi nodded, but added: "I didn't really touch it, and it's hard to say." But an eight-grade fox demon ...... With the county blessing here, we will help from the side, but it really can't be done, and we can also find some people to be seconded from the county, and I think we can still be sure to kill them! At least...... Even if you can't kill it, you can seriously injure it!"
"Hmm. Gao Jing nodded, obviously agreeing with this statement, and said, "Yes." ”
"Why did the county Zhu suddenly ask about this again? Isn't this fox demon already ...... Could it be that Zhou Ang......"
Gao Jing suddenly raised his hand, interrupted Du Yi, and said, "Everyone has withdrawn, don't track him in the future! Just arrange it at the south gate and control the time when he enters and goes in and out every day." Remember, don't be too deliberate!"
"This ...... No!"
"In addition, send someone to send a hundred pieces of money to the chief of Naru. Remember, if you make it clear, just say that the money is a reward for the person who killed the demon fox!"
"Uh...... No!"
