Chapter 052: Thinking Too Much
The three black-clothed men took off their night clothes at the corner of the street, looked around, and made sure that no one noticed, so they walked into the gate of the Liang Mansion generously. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the main hall of Liang Mansion, Liang Sizhi sat on a chair, holding a tea bowl in his hand, but he never sent it to his mouth. He frowned, as if thinking about something.
It's been a long time since he's bothered to think about something like this, and Liang Sizhi misses and enjoys this feeling.
Du Cheng and Lu Degui stood on both sides to accompany each other. A person of Lu Degui's status was not qualified to stand here. It was only because he was the first to deal with Chen Zhixian that he received such an honor, which made Lu Degui a little flattered.
"That Chen Ao really doesn't know martial arts?" Du Cheng asked.
Lu Degui nodded again and again, and subconsciously touched the swollen part of his face that was beaten by Chen Ao, and said, "The little ones don't dare to deceive the young master and the chief manager." The kid...... Oops...... When that kid beat me, he didn't talk about any routines, and he really didn't know any martial arts!"
Liang Sizhi nodded when he heard this, noncommittal. At this moment, three men came up to the hall and bowed to Liang Sizhi.
Liang Sizhi waved his hand and asked, "Guan Ping, how are things going?"
Among them, the big man in his thirties was respectful to Liang Sizhi, and he hugged his fists and said, "Young master, the matter is ...... Didn't make it ......"
"Huh?" Liang Sizhi frowned.
Guan Ping said again: "My subordinates failed to fight with Chen Ao. At the last moment, he was disturbed by three exile prisoners!"
Liang Sizhi's face sank. Everyone knows that the young lord of his own family is very deep, and his joy and anger are invisible. His expression was already very angry now.
Guan Ping hurriedly added: "However, according to the subordinates...... That Lord Chen is actually unfathomable, a person with strong martial arts!"
"Oh?" Liang Sizhi became interested again, and a pair of bright eyes swept over Lu Degui and Guan Ping's faces. The two men were saying very different things, and he was judging who was lying.
I only heard Guan Ping say again: "One of the three subordinates was outflanked forward, and the two were intercepted behind Chen Ao. The two of us saw the opportunity and prepared to make a move on Chen Ao. Who knew that Chen Ao's face did not change color and did not move. When his subordinates were only a few feet away from him, he still didn't dodge or dodge, and he didn't even come out of the starting hand. With this concentration alone, I'm afraid few people can do it!"
Liang Sizhi nodded: "Go on." ”
Guan Ping glanced at the person beside him and said, "Later, Huzi and I were intercepted by the three prisoners, and Shen Yuan used his hands to sneak attack, who knew that before he made a move, he was thrown to the ground by Chen Ao!"
Liang Sizhi frowned and glared at Lu Degui. He obviously knew Shen Yuan's skills, and took advantage of the sneak attack in front of Chen Ao, and was defeated without making a move. Will such a person be a person who doesn't know martial arts at all?
Lu Degui broke down in a cold sweat, and said secretly in his heart, this kid clearly doesn't know martial arts, how can he not even be an opponent of Shen Guard, is it really hidden? But I actually told the young master that he didn't know martial arts, this and this......
Liang Sizhi ignored him and said to Shen Yuan: "Shen Yuan, you come!"
The man standing on Guan Ping's left clenched his fists and said: "Yes, his subordinates took advantage of the sneak attack, and leaned closer while Chen Ao was not paying attention." Who knew that as soon as they fought, they were forced to fall to the ground by Chen Ao's move...... The subordinates are ashamed...... At that time, the movement was too fast, and the sky was dark, and his subordinates couldn't see how he made a move...... However, Chen Ao didn't pursue, and when he hit it successfully, he didn't even look at me, and seemed to be disdainful of his subordinates!"
Guan Ping hurriedly added: "The subordinates are a little farther away, and I vaguely see Chen Ao making a move. That move is a bit like the Shaolin faction's grappler, and like the Kunlun faction's plum folding hand, as well as a bit of the shadow of the Tiangang faction's mountain and water, and a bit like the push of the Bagua Gate...... In short, this trick is very complicated, it seems nondescript, but it is a combination of the strengths of each family. Subordinate...... His subordinates can't guess his path......"
Liang Sizhi listened to his speculation, frowned and muttered: "It seems that he is still a master of several families......"
Du Cheng said in a deep voice: "Young master, I didn't expect this person to be so difficult to deal with. Do you want to gather more people?"
Liang Sizhi raised his hand to interrupt him and said, "Chen Ao is a smart person, he must be able to guess that Guan Ping and the three of them were sent by me to test him." He knocked down Shin Yuan with one move, but did not pursue him. He's capable of fighting me, but he doesn't want to. Since he has no malicious intent, let's not take the initiative!"
Du Chengdao: "However, this Liangcheng is ours, and we can't let him come and gain a firm foothold so easily!"
Liang Sizhi nodded, turned his head and asked Lu Degui: "You just said that this Lord Chen is very good at trying cases?"
Lu Degui was trembling, and when he heard Liang Sizhi ask him, he didn't want to punish him, so he hurriedly replied, "Yes, yes...... The villain saw it with his own eyes...... A pair of cow skeletons can be interrogated by him to find clues. The foolish people are all spreading and saying...... said that Chen Ao has spiritism and can talk to brutes......"
Liang Sizhi interrupted his nonsense and said, "Since our county magistrate likes to try cases so much, we will arrange some cases for him to try for the first trial!"
Du Cheng suddenly showed a smile of understanding.
The Liang Mansion was discussing a major matter, and Chen Ao, a clever man and martial arts master, was still arguing with the messenger on the street.
"You, you, you, who's in charge? Who is your boss? Tell him to come out to see me!" Chen Ao was furious.
The officer, who was in charge of the prisoners in exile for hard labor, was on the hill outside the city all day. He also heard that a new county magistrate had come to the city, but he didn't expect to meet him here, and he had an argument with him.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Chen Ao was obviously afraid of himself, and said loudly: "You guys who eat people and don't do anything, the security in Liangcheng is so poor, you don't know how to take care of it? On the first day I came here, the donkey was stolen, and I also encountered three robbers! Is this still a peaceful and prosperous world?"
He scolded and spitted profusely, and the errand officer had a bitter face, thinking to himself, Lao Tzu doesn't care about the affairs of the city, what does the public security have to do with Lao Tzu? But the county magistrate is always the head of a county, and he is the top boss of his own boss, and he is better to make less trouble.
Therefore, the errand officer simply scolded and did not fight back, and he could not fight back.
Chen Ao became even more energetic, and scolded again: "These three big brothers acted bravely and helped me fight off the robbers. You actually came up and didn't say a word, and hit your head and face. You simply don't distinguish between right and wrong, good and bad! I'm going to invite the three big brothers now...... Get out of the way!"
When the officer heard this, he was immediately displeased. Scolding and scolding, wanting to take the prisoner away from him, it is not a trivial matter. Even if it is a prefectural order, it does not have this right. If something happens, who can afford it?
He was about to refuse, but the three prisoners snorted. The one next to him with a slightly fairer face said proudly: "Hmph! We never drink with dog officials!"
The strong man in the middle also said coldly: "Your Excellency made an extraordinary move, but he hid his head and showed his tail, it was not a hero's doing." Let's go!"
The three of them said as they strode away, following the group of prisoners. The officer hurriedly followed, scolding and walking away along the way. Only Chen Ao was left standing in place blankly: How did I become a dog official......
He returned to the county office in despair. The gate of the county government is still open, but the officials in the yamen have already gone home. The back hall cleaned up a room and used it as Chen Ao's room. After a day of tossing, Chen Ao didn't have the energy to be picky. He bolted the white horse to the stables in the backyard, took off his shoes, and lay down on the bed.
At the end of the day, so much happened, it really exhausted him. But lying in bed, it was difficult to fall asleep for a while. He thought of the courage to solve the case for a while, and then remembered the refreshment when he scolded his subordinates, and he couldn't help laughing.
But when he thought that his black donkey was stolen, and he ran into the robbers, as well as the hateful faces of Master Pei and those officials, he was very angry.
Just angry for a while, happy for a while, and finally fell asleep in a daze.
