Chapter 23: The Trial

After leaving Wu Weiguo's villa, Jianren returned alone to his own small courtyard in Dingjia Lane.

When Jianren walked into the alley, he immediately found that the two quaint vermilion lacquered wooden doors in the courtyard were hidden, and the big copper lock on the door had long been gone.

Jianren hurriedly opened the gate and walked into the courtyard, not knowing what was happening. Just after Jianren entered the hospital, a figure suddenly came out, and without saying anything, he knelt on the ground and bowed to Jianren.

"How did you get in?" asked Jianren sharply when he saw the man on the ground. This person is not an outsider, it is the thief Qiu Shuai who stole Jianren's BMW horse a few days ago.

"Master, your old man is back, if you don't come back, I will starve to death. Qiu Shuai knelt on the ground and said with an aggrieved face.

"Don't call me master, I'm not your master, and besides, why did you come in without my permission? You are trespassing on a private house, I can call the police to arrest you, you know?" Jianren dodged Qiu Shuai, who was crawling on his knees, and said angrily.

"Master, don't be angry with me anymore, the previous things were all in vain and I was confused for a while to steal your old BMW horse, all the mistakes are my fault, you have a lot of adults, don't worry about the apprentices anymore." Besides, hasn't your BMW horse been returned in its original form, and I have been duly punished, they actually detained me for seven days, it's not a place for people to stay, not only the conditions are poor, but there are also a few disgusting perverts, staring at people's butts every day, if it weren't for the futile I tried my best to resist, my pure body that I had preserved for eighteen years would be buried there, do you think I'm easy?" Qiu Shuai cried with a handful of snot and tears, like a little girl who had just escaped from the hands of a pervert, extremely aggrieved.

Looking at Qiu Shuai kneeling on the ground so coyly, the fake can't be faked anymore, Jianren is really a little speechless, the other party seems to be more shameless than himself, Qiangren himself is a master, not to mention, his acting skills can still be so exquisite, if people who don't know what happened can see it, then don't they immediately overflow with sympathy, stand behind the other party, and support each other with all their hearts?

"Don't tell me something useless, let me ask you, how did you get in?" Jianren was not impressed by the other party at all, and then asked sternly.

"Alas, master, you old man don't know, didn't I have been detained by them for seven days, yesterday I went straight here as soon as I was released, I want to see you as soon as possible, I admire the five-body throw, admiration is like a surging river out of control of the good master, so I came. But your old man was not there, so I waited at the door, but I didn't see your old man come back until late at night, I was cold and hungry, so I took it upon myself to come in over the wall. I think you should have gotten rid of her as soon as possible, and I have been up for a long time, but she has not gotten up yet! I said Master, such a person can't be used, it's too lazy, I think you should have kicked her out early, anyway, it will be enough for me to serve you alone in the future. Also, the lock you used to lock the door should also be replaced, although the copper lock is a good old object, but it is a bit not enough to lock the door, I opened it before I arrived in a second, and it didn't take the slightest effort at all. After Qiu Shuai touched his snot, he poured beans into a bamboo tube in one breath and said endlessly.

"Alright, you can get up. Jianren said impatiently.

"Thank you, master!" Qiu Shuai learned those court dramas on TV, and kowtowed to Jianren again, almost shouting long live.

"Don't call me master, I didn't promise to accept you as an apprentice!" Jianren was completely defeated by the other party's shameless spirit, how could the other party be like a dog skin plaster, and it would be difficult to tear it off if it was pasted!

"Yes, I listen to you, master, so what will I call you in the future?" asked Qiu Shuai with a flattering face.

"Do you really want to worship me as a teacher?" Jianren asked the other party as he sat on a chair in the courtyard.

"Of course, since I saw the master's incomparably transcendent demeanor that day, I was deeply moved by you, and I swore to heaven at that time that I must worship you as a teacher in this life, and I can always accompany you to serve by your old side, so that I can always look at your old man's voice and smile, and talk about my cousin's admiration for your old man. Qiu Shuai hurriedly crossed the stick and said without losing time.

"Well, it is fate that you and I can meet, so let's give you a test, if you can pass this test, then I will reluctantly accept you as an apprentice, how about it?" Regarding Qiu Shuai's dog skin plaster, Jianren also had no choice, and he said to the other party as soon as he got his heart to it.

"Master, please rest assured, don't say it's a test, even ten hundred, I will do it, and I will definitely not disappoint the master." As soon as Qiu Shuai heard Jianren's words, he immediately jumped up, and his hard work finally paid off, and his stubborn fight was finally quite effective.

"Okay, you go buy me a pack of cigarettes of this brand now, if you can come back within an hour, even if you pass my test, the cigarettes will be your apprenticeship. Jianren pointed to the cigarette on the coffee table and said to Qiu Shuai.

"Master, please wait a while, I'll go back!" Qiu Shuai glanced at the pack of cigarettes on the coffee table, which was not a rare brand, but a very common mass product, and trotted all the way out of the yard.

Qiu Shuai had just stepped out of the courtyard door, and when he stepped in and out of the door, he suddenly remembered something, turned around and ran back to Jianren with his head down.

"What's wrong?" Jian Ren asked puzzled, looking at the other party.

"That, master, can you lend me some money, I'll ...... I have no money in my pocket. Qiu Shuai lowered his head and whispered.

"If you don't have any money, what kind of teacher do you worship? Hurry up and play with me! Poor scholars, rich scholars, martial arts, if you want to learn kung fu with me, it's not a money-saving thing, if you don't have any money, hurry up and get out of here, I don't have the time to talk to you here!" Jianren took advantage of the situation to get rid of this dog skin plaster, so he said as a philistine.

"Master, didn't I just release it from it, and I paid a fine for all the money on my body, where will I have any money on me now? Just lend me a little first, and I will pay you back tomorrow, the man and the eldest husband will definitely not break their promises." Qiu Shuai hurriedly explained.

"Then I don't care, I can't give you the money for apprenticeship, this is also one of the tests, I don't care what method you use, but you must not break the law, it must be the income of normal labor, otherwise I will judge you for violating the rules, and I will not agree to your apprenticeship's request." Jianren picked up the teacup in his hand, took a sip of the cold tea in the cup, and after speaking, he didn't pay attention to Qiu Shuai on the side, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

"Okay, I'll go and make money to buy you cigarettes, and then you won't push back!" Qiu Shuai gritted his teeth, the young man's stubbornness and self-esteem were troubled, and his title was changed, and he turned around and left without looking back.

Seeing Qiu Shuai leaving, Jianren got up and stood up, let go of his divine sense to confirm that the other party walked out of the alley, and then his right hand lightly pinched his fingers at random in the void, and an invisible barrier appeared at the mouth of the alley at the entrance of the courtyard, completely hiding the alley.

If Qiu Shuai turned back at this time, he would find that the alley that had existed for hundreds of years had disappeared without warning and quietly, and instead a cement wall that was consistent with the buildings on both sides of the alley appeared out of thin air, and there was no flaw at all, as if this place was supposed to be like this.

After doing this, Jianren came to the room where Zhu Yuanyuan was, carefully checked the other party's physical condition, and then returned to his room.

For Qiu Shuai, Jianren didn't think much about him, just regarded him as a passerby, and hid the alley by using a little trick, but also just let the other party retreat and no longer entangle with himself. As for the rest, Jianren didn't have time to think about it, after all, there were too many things he needed to face now, and after Zhu Yuanyuan recovered, he needed to deal with all these things, some threats were better to nip them in the bud, he couldn't let things develop to the point that he couldn't control them, and let himself fall into an unwarranted disaster.
