Chapter 166: Jiang Cheng Takes Office
The light rain is clearing, and the air is filled with the smell of dampness and freshness.
Early in the morning, the slightly dilapidated county gate of Jiangcheng was opened, as soon as the city gate was opened, there were already carriages gathered at the city gate, and the ox carts rushed towards the outside of the city, the shouting of the car, the shouting of the road, the shouting and scolding of the goods, and the laughter of acquaintances greeting each other, resounded into a one, and the noise was snatching.
This is a scene that every Qingcheng in Jiangcheng has to appear, as the most important water transport terminal in Zhonghe County, Jiangcheng is the largest cargo distribution center in the whole Zhonghe County, the business is extremely prosperous, there are countless cars and horses coming and going every day, especially every morning during this time, it is like the morning rush hour of the little leopard's previous life, and I don't know how many shops have goods to be transported out of the city, after going out of the city, along the official road for more than ten miles, there is a place called a fork in the road, each merchant, in this their own part, to their respective destinations。
Yesterday it rained, the ground is relatively wet, although it is an official road, but after all, it is only an official road outside the county, and the quality of the ground is not very good.
Su Ergou stretched his waist, holding a big broom, walked out of the city gate, at this time it has been said that the three poles, the early merchants have already gone out of the city, the city gate is coming and going are ordinary pedestrians, some countryside into the city, some out of the city to the countryside, scattered, no longer the morning lively.
Su Ergou took a broom, started from the city gate, and swept all the way out of the city, sweeping away all the mud and water in the middle of the road, not asking how clean it was, but at least not so messy, at least to ensure the smoothness of the ground.
This is his daily fixed work, he has lived in this Jiangcheng for 56 years, has been doing this business for 40 years, and has been involved in half a public quota, and he is also free.
Recently, Jiangcheng has not been very peaceful, but this place in Jiangcheng, no matter how chaotic it is, it can't affect his Su Ergou, you say, what trouble can a person who fights on the street get into trouble?
Therefore, in these days, he has a much more nourishing life than those who occupy a public quota.
Su Ergou is sweeping the streets without a match, and he is simply absent-minded, and now he has a lot of things on his mind?
The neighbor Lao Huang's family is defeated, he is really stupid, who is not good to do against him, but he wants to do it with Wudu's head, relying on his own cloth shop to earn a few homes, so he will charge a big head, this time it's good, he was charged with a fornication by Wudutou, not only the shop was copied, but he also squatted in the county jail with himself, and when the county government officials came to arrest people that day, the family cried and shouted that it was a miserable!
"Lao Huang's daughter is tender and tender, and she has a good upbringing, now that the family is defeated, let's see if I can find a chance to get someone over, if it happens, then ......!" Thinking about such a beautiful thing in my heart, slowly, I actually laughed by myself, and I was laughing happily, when I suddenly felt that something was wrong, and suddenly raised my head, "Ahh
"You, you, you, who are you?!"
Su Ergou sat on the ground, pointed to a man and a beast in front of him like a ghost in a panic, and stammered and asked.
This person is just that, very young, very tall, and looks very mighty, however, there are many powerful people in these years, as long as they have practiced martial arts, they will unconsciously have a kind of majestic momentum on their bodies, Su Ergou has swept the land in this Jiangcheng for so many years, and it is not that he has never seen it.
What made him feel fear was a big silver dog following this man, not a big wolf, no, this was ...... Whether it's a dog or a wolf, anyway, it's one of these two things, he has lived for fifty-six years, and it's not a person who hasn't seen the world, but to be honest, it's really the first time he's seen such a big dog, it's bigger than a calf, standing up, just the height, it's almost on his shoulders, a silver fur, shiny and shiny, waving in the wind, majestic, a pair of cyan eyes, staring at his body, just like staring at his own dinner, so that Su Ergou has a trace of despair in his heart。
The tall young man beside the silver wolf did not answer Su Ergou's question, but patted the big wolf's head, "Xiao Du, how many times have I told you, don't scare others if you're fine!"
Then he turned his head and grinned at Su Ergou, "Excuse me, it should be Jiang Cheng in front, right?!"
"Yes, front, the front is Jiangcheng!" Su Ergou nodded again and again, glanced at the silver wolf, and subconsciously moved back again, "You, do you want to enter the city?!"
"Yes!" The tall boy nodded, patted the silver wolf's back, and the wolf dog hissed, as if venting his dissatisfaction, glanced at Su Ergou fiercely, followed the tall boy, and walked in the direction of the county seat.
This person is a wolf, it is the little leopard and his demon beast, Xiao Du.
After Xiao Du was ambushed by the little leopard, he has been following the little leopard, but this Xiao Du's figure is too eye-catching, when he was in the county town, the little leopard did not completely stay by his side, but most of the time in a free-range state, will be put into the mountains outside the city, let him feed himself, in addition to not being allowed to eat people, there are no special requirements, so this little Du is also happy.
This time, he was put into Jiangcheng by Li Yuanwai in this complicated situation, and the little leopard had no bottom in his heart, so he decided to take Xiao Du with him to suppress the corner.
Anyway, it is a demon beast, and in this world, the deterrent power of demon beasts is much larger than that of people.
Therefore, he took Xiao Du with him and came to Jiangcheng together, which made Xiao Du, who had been free for a while, a little unhappy, but there was no way, not happy or unhappy, since it had been subdued by the little leopard, no matter how unhappy it was, it couldn't resist the will of the little leopard at all, so he reluctantly followed the little leopard for more than 100 miles and came to Jiangcheng.
It is precisely because he is in a bad mood, so no matter what he sees, he is malicious, that Su Ergou is just a street sweeper, where have you seen this, therefore, after this person and a wolf left, Su Ergou found that he unconsciously had a wet vest, and what was even more outrageous was that his crotch was also wet. "What are you...... In fact, it was not only this Su Ergou who was panicked, but a few soldiers who were idle and bored outside the city gate of the county seat, chatting and fartizing, saw this person and a wolf, and they were also scared clearly, compared to Su Ergou, the leader of this soldier can be regarded as having some eyesight, people can't see anything, but the silver wolf can see clearly, it is absolutely extraordinary, it is very likely to be a demon beast.
Demon beasts, this year is rare, although he has never seen it, but whether in the eyes of ordinary people or in the eyes of people in the martial arts, demon beasts are synonymous with powerful, unruly, brutal, vomiting blood, and terrifying.
Facing the demon beast was not what he should do as a small city gate soldier leader eyewitness, so he dared to ask the tall young man who was walking with the demon beast.
This young man is tall, with a gentle smile on his face, walking next to this fierce demon beast, it seems very incongruous, but it is not an ordinary person who can walk with the demon beast and be in peace with each other, coupled with the gentle smile on his face that makes people feel like a spring breeze, finally made him brave and asked.
The young man just smiled, took out a seal letter from his arms, and threw it directly into his hand, "I am Zhou Bao, the new commander of the Jiangcheng Naval Army, and I came to Jiangcheng to take office on the orders of Li Yuan and Admiral Li!"
"Ahh
The commander of the naval army in this Jiangcheng is nothing in Zhonghe County, but in this Jiangcheng, it is several levels higher than the small leader of this city gate, and the soldiers at the city gate all knelt down when they heard what the little leopard said.
"Don't be polite!" Seeing that the leader of the soldiers finished reading the sealed letter, the little leopard pointed with his hand, "You, just you, take me into the city, I came to this Jiangcheng for the first time, and I am not familiar with the place, so you can take me to run, go to the garrison first!"
"Yes!" The leader of the soldiers dared to say much, kowtowed respectfully, presented the seal letter with both hands, handed it to the back of the little leopard, and then led the little leopard into Jiangcheng County with low eyebrows.
It was Wang Tianlei who told the little leopard that Jiangcheng was not big, but it was unusually prosperous, however, it was this prosperity that caused trouble.
The leader of the soldiers led the little leopard to walk slowly on the street, at this time it was close to noon, the pedestrians on the road came and went, endlessly, this little single figure was too eye-catching, too eye-catching, for a while, attracted everyone to stop and watch one by one, not long after, both sides of the road were crowded, although none of them dared to go forward, just pointing and whispering on the side of the road.
This whisper, when there were few people, it was just that, now there are too many people, everyone's whispers are combined, but it is no less than the sound of Wu Wu Zela in the World Cup, buzzing and straight, as if thousands of flies are flying around, listening to the ears are very irritable.
This little Dulong has been in the mountains for a long time, and he has never been in the city a few times, where have he seen so many people, and heard such a troublesome voice, although he doesn't know what these people around him are talking about, but it naturally understands that this is not a good thing, and he suddenly felt irritated, and let out a low roar in his throat.
The sound it made was the sound of intimidating wild beasts in the mountains, although it was not high, but it was very powerful, and the people on the side of the road did not hear it very clearly, but the leader of the soldiers was so close that he could hear it clearly, and he did not know how to drop it, and he only felt a great sense of fear rising from the bottom of his heart, and his feet were soft, and he fell directly to the ground.
The little leopard raised his eyebrows, glanced at Xiao Du dissatisfiedly, and was about to step forward to help the leader of the soldiers, but unexpectedly, before he stepped forward, he heard a loud shout in his ears, "Where is the demon, in broad daylight, colluding with the demon beast to commit murder here, and you won't take it down with me!"
