C75

He didn't laugh out loud throughout the dinner table, he only ate big mouthfuls and drank big mouthfuls of soup. Not only was he not touched by any of the alcohol, he was also the same as the other six county police officers.

While everyone was eating and drinking happily, Qin Zhao put down his chopsticks and nodded at Ren Chi, who sat at the head of the table. He then left his seat and walked away from the table.

Ren Chi stood up and said, "There's still a lot of food, I'll go to the kitchen to have a look. Everyone, take your time and eat."

He followed behind Qin Zhao and walked out of the hall.

Qin Zhao simply went into the kitchen and clasped his hands towards the busy Ren family's sister-in-law. "Sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work. This meal is too exquisite."

The Ren family's sister-in-law recognized him and cried out, "Isn't this Brother Qin Zhe ?" Look at my eyes, after knowing each other for so long, I thought they were just a bunch of farmers. "How do you know you changed your clothes?"

Qin Zhao smiled and said, "This is what you call being an official and not being yourself." As he stroked Silver Flower's head, he said, "Yo, it's been more than a year since we last met. You've grown so much already?"

Silver Flower shyly called out, "Uncle Qin."

Ren Chi also came in, instructing his family: "You are all hungry! Go on. I'll go talk with Brother Qin outside. "

As a result, they came to the back of the courtyard, where they saw the monk sitting alone on the rock.

"Eh?" Ren Chi was slightly surprised. "Who is this monk?"

Silver flowers ? He smiled and said, "I'm here to eat. I'm tired from walking and said I'm here to rest my legs ? "Dad, I'll go call him over."

"Don't, don't, don't ?" Ren Chi patted Silver Flower and said, "It's none of your business, go play on the side!"

Only then did Silver Flower leave.

"Bro, this task isn't easy, right?" Ren Chi said.

Ren Chi then spoke up to Qin Zhao.

"Is there a need to say more?" With a long face, Qin Zhen shook his head. "I'm just short of losing my life."

He was not even forty years old, and his face was full of vigor. He was a big man from the north, but he didn't think that he would be poor in the south.

Ren Chi asked, "What is the purpose of this mission?"

Qin Zhao said, "We'll bet heavily on the goods."

This was inconvenient to ask more, also inconvenient to say more, just a little bit of a man could tell, in the public door work, this is called "door to fall threshold."

"How long are you planning to stay here?" Ren Chi said.

"Three or four days at least!" Qin Zhao said.

As soon as he heard that there would be three or four days of delay, he could no longer be happy.

There were twenty to thirty people who were staking their goods. In his inn, it would take more than three days to ensure they did not cause any trouble. If something went wrong, he would be the first person to get rid of the responsibility.

Therefore, he could not help but reveal a worried expression while listening.

Of course, Thousand-Hands had seen through it, but there was nothing he could do.

"This is called having no choice." Qin Zhao said, "Although nothing went wrong in the past two days, the news that came out wasn't very peaceful. Since that woman attacked my family, do you think she'll let us go?"

"Then, my Old Wai, what should I do?" Ren Chi was so anxious that he even spoke the words of his hometown, Nanjing.

"Little brother," Ren Chi's eyes widened as he continued, "If that woman really comes looking for us here ?" Brother... Can your people handle it? "

"Hmph, then it's hard to say." Qin Zhao said.

"Yo, you have to hurry and think of a way, in case something goes wrong when the time comes." Ren Chi said.

"Don't worry." Qin Zhao said, "I've already sent people to inform the county and yamen that I want them to do their best to protect me."

"But, why is there no news at all?" Ren Chi said.

"It can't be! Let's go take a look. " Qin Zhao said.

With one in front and one behind, the two of them stepped out of the backyard.

Before leaving, Qin Shizhe looked at the monk a few times.

"This monk comes often?" Qin Zhao said.

"Then... But there wasn't any ? "Why?" Ren Chi said.

"No problem, I was just casually asking." Qin Zhao said.

"How about, I just want him to walk?" Ren Chi said.

"No need. If that's the case, then it will just make us feel guilty." "If you want to stay, then stay. If you want to go, then go. That's a lot more natural. You understand, the people outside saw that monks had fated with them, so it was peaceful instead. I find it pleasing for him to stay." Qin Zhao said.

Ren Chi still didn't understand, but since Qin Zhe had said so, there was nothing wrong with it. He didn't chase the monk away.

Outside the house, there were two more fishermen by the pond.

The two of them looked at each other and understood what the other was thinking.

Ren Chi took a few steps forward and asked, "Are there any fish?"

One of the fishermen smiled and said, "The water is shallow and can't be hooked."

The other one said, "I saw two of them a moment ago. They were hiding far away and I'm not sure of their methods."

With that said, even Ren Chi, who didn't know much about "jargon", understood and his expression immediately changed.

However, Qin Zhao knew what to do. He smiled and said, "It's hard work. It's hard work."

He dragged Ren Chi up Tian Kan and walked towards the other side.

He saw another person on the other side. There were six or seven bamboo chopping men. When they saw the two from afar, they all stopped fighting.

Ren Chi was the number one figure in the area, and everyone knew him.

Thus, someone from afar bowed down and called out to him, "Master Ren."

Needless to say, it was laid down by the officials.

Seeing this, Ren Chi finally felt relieved.

Two more cars had arrived on the far side of the road, but there were seven or eight people staring blankly at something.

A man carried a bundle on his back, and everyone knew it was "that job."

Thousand-hand Divine Catcher Qin Zhe smiled coldly and said, "It's really rare to expect these useless trash with useless possessions to come and take the thief." Let's go in! "

Ren Chi felt more at ease after this look, but Qin Zhao's expression didn't relax at all.

When he entered the backyard, he saw Ren Chi's family talking to the monk.

The moment he saw Ren Chi, the former shouted, "Alright, our boss is back. Senior Master, go and tell him yourself! "

Ren Chi fixed his steps and asked, "What's going on?"

The person from his family said, "This master said that he wants to stay here for a few nights. I don't dare to agree to his request."

Ren Chi was a little taken aback, "How long will it be?"

The monk closed his eyes and said, "It's convenient for you, old monk. I just want to stay and rest." I can pay for it, just as long as there's a place to sleep. "

Ren Chi frowned and said, "This is difficult, didn't you see that I was busy here? There are so many people, how could there be a house for you to live in? "

The old monk chuckled, "It's fine, it's fine. I've already taken a good look at the place. There's no need to make any preparations. This woodshed is good enough."

The woodshed he was talking about wasn't too far away. Although it was a woodshed, it was spacious. It used to be occupied by people, but now it was empty. With that said, Ren Chi couldn't say anything. He felt awkward and looked at Qin Zhao, hoping he would express his opinion.

Qin Zhao had been paying attention to the monk the entire time, so he didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. The old monk had a kind face, so it was natural for him to be an outsider.

Qin Zhe walked over to the monk and gave him a deep bow. "I didn't ask for First Master's name. How should I address you?" Where is Bao Sha? "

"Benefactor is being too courteous." "This old monk is just a monk marching in every direction. Earlier, there was a temple in the southern part of the Ming Dynasty called the Dazhi Temple."

"Then I'll call you master!" Qin Zhao turned around and said to Ren Chi, "Give him a convenience, master Ren. Just agree to it!"

"Amitabha, Almsgiver, you really are a good person ?" The old monk said, "Bodhisattva bless you, Bodhisattva bless you."

Qin Zhao smiled bitterly. He didn't want to say much to him and went inside the house alone.

As for Ren Chi, he would ask his subordinate to prepare the bedding for the monks and then follow them into the room.

Everyone in the cafeteria had finally finished eating and was drinking tea while chatting.

Qin Zhao gathered the heads of the six counties' constables together and carefully instructed them on everything. At that moment, the sky turned dark.

Eight fast horses galloped over.

The sound of hooves clattering on the dry road could be heard from afar.

This night, the inside of the big guy's ears were exceptionally sharp. Just a slight movement in the wind could make everyone's heart palpitate. In addition, there was already someone reporting this momentum.

When they heard the news, they had no choice but to put on the "Lying Tiger" and put on an old jacket. Then, with a lantern in hand, a servant came to the hall in the front yard.

Although it was warm in the south, it was already a day in the middle of the winter. The cold from the morning and evening was still very uncomfortable.

Ren Chi sucked in a mouthful of cold air, muttering to himself, "Where do I start? At what time is this? There's actually someone else coming?"

The moment he saw the scribe standing under the eaves waiting for him, he became even angrier.

"How did you manage to do that? Didn't you already tell me?" We can't keep any more guests here, why are there still people coming? " Ren Chi said.

"Be quiet, don't let anyone hear you." Mao Danwen said.

Mao Danwen hurried to Ren Chi's side and said in a low voice, "It's the difference between someone from the capital."

Ren Chi was startled at first, but then he sneered, "Even if he came from the capital, he can't. Even if he's full, he's full. What can you do about it? You're really stupid."

The bookkeeper hastily pulled him back and whispered, "Uncle, be a bit more gentle. It's not a joke, but the imperial official!"

"Huang ?" royal official! " Ren Chi said.

The latter sentence had really scared him and caused him to be stunned on the spot.

Mao Danwen knitted his eyebrows and said, "You have quite the manner to you. I think you should go quickly. Otherwise, things will get worse if you can't protect yourself."

Just as he said this, he heard shouts coming from the hall, "Postmaster, postman..." "Little monkey, you have quite the manner."

These shouts were like the lines from a play, with the standard accent of Beijing.

Ren Chi felt a chill run down his spine, but he knew that he was going to be the unlucky star tonight, a master that wasn't easy to serve.

He replied and hurriedly caught up with them. He raised his voice and said, "The Stone Pond Inn is a place where people request to meet late. I'm late ?" "I'm late ?"

There were a lot of rules in the government, especially since the other party was a mediocre official. If the other party were to pick a small fault, he would be able to move his head.

After a long while, a voice came out from inside.

"Why didn't you come in when you were here? You're so stupid, why did you have to get someone to carry you around?"

"No ?" "I don't dare ?"

It was all because of the "imperial official" that he spoke of. How could he not be frightened to death when faced with such audacity?

As he hastily put on his old jacket, he realized that he had forgotten to put it on in such a hasty manner.

This was a huge crime. He was so scared that his face turned ashen and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He could only say nasty things first.

"This lowly officer does not know that the seniors have arrived, and their clothes are untidy. I will go and change them now, and then I will see you again ?" "Please ?"

"Enough. When you change your clothes again, the sky will already brighten. Our brothers standing here have already turned into minced meat."

Soon after, the blue curtain was opened with a "whoosh" sound. A tall and big man walked out.

The elder had a long face with long fangs, thick eyebrows, and a flat nose. One hand lifted the long sleeves of his robe while the other hung a horsewhip. His entire body was covered in dust.

Even with Ren Ziling's experience, he could not find any trace of wealth in the man.

However, from the man's raised lapels, he saw a hint of yellow silk ? this was enough to prove the man's identity. Furthermore, the man's pure words seemed to aggravate his' unquestionable 'service to the royal family.

"You are the postman of this realm?" When the long-faced man said in an official tone, "It's only a small meeting, yet you're already sitting up like a corpse (sleeping)? "Come in, come in ?"

As he spoke, he brought Ren Chi into the living room.

There were eight people in the room, sitting, standing, and the long-faced man.

They were all dressed in the same way, each of them was wearing a blue robe, and inside, there was a thin, double-lipped robe. They were all wearing the same kind of clothes, each of them was wearing the same kind of blue robe, and inside, they were all wearing a thin, double-lipped robe, and inside it were

On the other hand, the chick in the middle looked a little tender, but he had the sharpest eyes of all.

How could Ren Chi dare to observe them one by one? After a brief glance, he lowered his head, feeling apprehensive. He couldn't figure out the origins of this bunch of people.

The long-faced man snorted and said, "Do you know our identities?"

"Yes ?" Ren Chi couldn't help but ask, "Masters, are you doing this as a royal errand?"

"The imperial edict is inferior." The long-faced man's eyes were white, as if blaming himself for not being able to speak.

"That's the kind of thing. "Tonight, there's no time to go to the store, and the road is not peaceful, so you have to clean up the house, one or four is enough, and then, the big guy is hungry, and something is about to come out, don't make the men wait too long, do you hear?" The long-faced man said.

Ren Chi said with a bitter smile, "This ? What is your name? This humble servant did not receive any news beforehand ? "It's already so late, the rooms are all full ?"
