Cultivation Is Like This

   Chapter 97 Years make people sad

  People rely on clothes, horses and saddles, and three-point appearance and seven-point dressing.

  Lu Bei put on a coat of eagle dog and dog skin, and his appearance and temperament increased by 1000%. He has a tendency to change his job from a young age and eat hard. He just wanted to find someone to praise him.

   Not much, just three days and three nights.

The five dead men can't make a fart in three words, and the golden-scaled snake will only hiss. Except for the mirror that shows who the most handsome man in the world is, on this ship, the only person Lu Bei can show off is She He. .

   Yet impossible.

  She Chang advanced to the Innate Realm one step ahead of Lu Bei. The first battle was unfavorable and he doubted his life. In the next few days, Lu Bei repeatedly pressed and rubbed on the ground in the name of sparring. Self-confidence has seriously declined, regaining her previous resentful temperament, and she dislikes Lu Bei in every possible way. If she wants to open her mouth and listen to two good words, I am afraid it is only possible in a dream.

   "Sister She, what about my clothes?"

   "It's virtuous, it suits you very well."

   "Open your eyes and take a closer look."

   "Like a dog."

  She opened his eyes, looked Lu Bei up and down for a while, gave a fairly pertinent evaluation, and then looked into the distance: "Why go by boat, you and I have the ability to ride the wind, you can go and return quickly."

   "The news that Xuanyin Division sent people to investigate has already spread to Langwu County. I want to try it. If anyone wants to kill you and me halfway, the clue will come, and the case will be solved." Lu Bei replied truthfully.

   Langwu County is surrounded by mountains and rivers. There are three peaks, Dawu, Erwu, and Siwu, which block the outside world. All traffic in and out depends on waterways. With such good conditions, it should be a time to lure the enemy and expose himself.

   "You're so sure that the murderer is someone else?" She Hean frowned.

   "Of course, I am Xuanyin Si Qingwei, and the county magistrate Zhu Shiqi is the promising rookie above. The murderer is someone else who belongs to the right buttocks, so he has to have it." Lu Bei said with a serious face.

  She Chang rolled his eyes, too lazy to talk nonsense with Lu Bei.

   She came to Langwu County not to accompany Lubei on an outing, but to have a hidden underground palace that she had to visit. A few years ago, she had a chance there, and now she has advanced to the Xiantian realm, and plans to go back and review it again.

   There are also golden-scaled snakes, which were also found near the underground palace and used for their own use, which has many benefits.

   This matter is a secret that She has been keeping alone for many years, and she has never told anyone, until Lu Bei asked curiously, and she said it casually.

   didn't mean anything else, I just felt that this person was hateful, but there was still a bit of merit in some aspects. As a trustworthy person, he told Lu Bei truthfully.

  Lu Bei became interested as soon as he heard it, and discussed it with She Heng. When the case was over, he visited the underground palace with her.

  21 is added as 5, and then he collects some tolls, cost of production, interest, and taxes, and She gets 10% of the benefits.

  …

   Langwu County.

  A small county with a population of 200,000, with complex terrain and waterways, almost isolated from the rest of the world in traffic, which breeds unique humanities and customs.

  Except for the scattered villages around, the county town looks like a continuous cottage. Under the mist, the county town built on the mountain is elevated layer by layer, like a huge cottage, with a mysterious and exotic atmosphere.

  Because of the strong humidity, it is difficult for outsiders to adapt to life in Langwu County.

   At the river bank of the county seat, Wang Zhaotou, who was acting on his behalf, paced back and forth, and when he saw the boat coming through the fog, he hurriedly greeted his men to come forward and catch the boat rope.

   "I have seen Master Qingwei, the temporary leader of the arresting head Wang Shifang in Langwu County."

  Xuanyin Si, also known as the black-clothed yamen, Wang Zhaotou did not dare to neglect, and when he stepped forward to salute, he saw the blue silk on Lu Bei's cuffs, and he held his breath for a few minutes.

   "Ding Lei from a certain family, Wang Zhaotou is polite."

  Out of prudence, Lu Bei now put on the face of a thief, and She Hean behind him was no exception, pinching a passerby's face with snakeskin, as the boss of the five dead men.

   As for the figure that is bulging forward and backward, it is too dazzling to deal with it.

  The white cloth is wrapped tightly.

   The face of passers-by is too ordinary. When others see her chest muscles are a little strong, they will subconsciously think that she is an individual who is reckless and will not think too much.

   "Sir, the county government has set up a banquet, look..."

   "Where is the county chief Zhu?"

   "I was imprisoned in the backyard of the county office, guarded by several adults from Emperor Jizong."

   "Let's go to Lord Zhu's mansion first. I heard that there is a Gu cultivation cellar in his house. I'm very interested."

  Lu Bei said: "As for the banquet, Wang Zhaotou has a heart, and I'm not in a hurry for the time being. When I return to the county office, I will borrow flowers to offer Buddha a few cups with Master Zhu."

   "What the lord said is, this way please."

  Wang Chautou led the way, Lu Bei noticed that his sharp eyes stopped on him, and looked sideways towards the pier.

   On a large ship not far away, the middle-aged man in green robe folded his hands and smiled, lip-sound transmission, and welcomed Lu Bei's arrival.

   Huang Jizong, Huang He.

  Lu Bei clasped his fists in return, quickly followed Wang Zaitou, and followed him to Zhu Mansion in Langwu County.

After the group left, two men dressed as guards came behind Huang He on Huang Jizong's big ship and said respectfully: "Master Steward, the thieves of Xuanyin Division have arrived, shall we directly hand the prisoners over to them, or shall we? Hold it down for now?"

   "Give it to them directly. After all, it's from the Zhu family. If something happened to us, it's not easy for me to deal with it."

  Huang Hewang looked in the direction that Lu Bei was going, shook his head and smiled: "These villains from the Xuanyin Division have insufficient energy, and they still frame our Emperor Jizong for being narrow-minded."

   "Master in charge, what do you say?"

"Take Qingwei just now as an example. He pretended to be a dead man, and found a dead ghost to stand in front of him. He didn't even think about the gap between the Xiantian realm and the pill-holding realm. I really thought he could hide it from me." Huang He sneered. road.

   "The adults are wise."

   "Looking at her decent figure, I'm curious about what she looks like under that dead man's face."

   "Sir, do you want me to spy on one or two?"

   "Tired of living?"

  Huang He shook his head and stopped his subordinate's unwise behavior. He was just curious and had no extra thoughts.

   Besides, if you really have an idea, the girls in the local Red Sleeve Pavilion are all fair-skinned and beautiful, with sweet mouths, so is it not good to talk about money?

   "Let the brothers hand over the prisoners quickly, and then go to the Red Sleeve Pavilion. Today, someone from Huang treats guests, and treat everyone well."

   "Your Highness!"

  …

   Langwu County, county government office.

  The wine and dishes are hot, and there is a table of local delicacies from the mountains and rivers.

  Lu Bei took off the embroidered knife around his waist and let the attendant She Qi hold it. The golden knife of the horse sat at the table, waiting for Wang Zhutou to bring the suspect Zhu Shiqi.

   Having been to Zhu's mansion, he found a place to raise Gu in the backyard cellar. After careful investigation, he determined that the real culprit was Zhu Shiqi.

  No way, he also wanted to help Zhu Shiqi clear the suspicion, but the evidence did not allow it.

  The cellar for keeping Gu is under the master bedroom, and you can see the entrance by pushing the bookcase. Look at the quality of the bricks and stones, and speculate on the construction time. If you say that Zhu Shiqi knows nothing, he won't believe it if you kill him.

   Going to the Zhu Mansion was just a routine matter. The cellar had already been searched by Emperor Jizong. Even if there was any missing evidence, it would not be his turn to pick it up.

  Lu Bei knew this very well. He just wanted to try it out. If he went to Zhu Mansion to investigate the case with great fanfare, would he attract passers-by in fancy clothes to show up.

There is a saying that criminals will always come back to the scene to appreciate their masterpieces. Whenever they see the impact of their actions on society, or the panic of onlookers, or the busy figures of police officers, they will Give birth to an unstoppable sense of achievement.

   Some criminals who are more pursuing want to see if there are loopholes left so that they can commit crimes more perfectly next time.

  Lu Bei had no experience or ability to solve a case, so he could only find a breakthrough point by using special tricks, waiting for assassination by boat, which was also out of this consideration.

   The results were average. It may be that Emperor Jizong had repeatedly re-examined the real murderer, and he was unmoved by the temptation of Lu Bei, and he had no intention of returning to the scene to observe again.

   But Lu Bei didn't get anything for nothing. Before leaving, he met the county magistrate's wife.

A beautiful woman in full bloom, she didn't think about tea and dinner for half a year, worried about the safety of her husband, I heard that the court sent Xuanyin Division to re-investigate the case, that is, her own, dressed up, and caught Lu Bei's when they met. Hand, I cry so much that pear blossoms bring rain, I still feel pity.

The county magistrate's wife is not the type with good eloquence, and her brain is also very general. She was recruited by Lu Bei to the inner courtyard for a private interview. Before leaving, she stuffed a bank note and asked Lu Bei to take care of her. Be sure not to wrong the honest person .

After being rejected face-to-face by Lu Bei, the county magistrate's wife remembered that she had another advantage, so she left a pink handkerchief and asked him to talk at night.

   Seeing that she was desperate, Lu Bei couldn't refuse, so he accepted the pink silk, indicating that he would come to visit tonight.

   "You suspect that the county magistrate's wife is the real murderer?"

She Xian was brooding about Lu Bei's acceptance of the handkerchief. Considering that this product still has a bottom line, at least it is not close to women, it is one of its few advantages, so he took advantage of the situation to scrutinize it: "The county chief and the county magistrate and the county magistrate. There are contradictions, and I complain to my wife every night when I go home, that my wife loves her husband so much that she secretly raises Gu to make worms and kills them one by one... right?"

  She's eyes lit up, feeling that she saw through the truth.

   "Do you have a hole in your brain?"

  Lu Bei gave She Heng a white look: "If it's as you said, she loves her husband so much that she surrendered herself to the crime in half a year. Why should she go to the doctor in a hurry to seduce me with this lewd face?"

   Speaking of this, Lu Bei sighed again and again. The years make people sad. She used to be a shrewd woman, but now she is getting more and more stupid. If you continue, it will be more than enough to lie to her eight times a night.

  She Hean frowned: "If that's the case, why did you accept the silk, isn't it a reason to find out her truth?"

  Lu Bei raised his brows: "It's true, but it's not her, it's Zhu Shiqi. First of all, Mr. Zhu wants to prove to me that he was indeed imprisoned on a wrongful basis, otherwise what would I do to help him clean up?"

   "How to detect?"

   "You'll find out later."

  While talking, Wang Zhaotou brought the suspect Zhu Shiqi, who was mentally exhausted due to half a year of imprisonment. The face of a literati who was originally attractive was now more than ten years old.

   "I have seen..."

  !

  Lu Bei slapped the silk on the table with a slap: "Stop talking nonsense, the handkerchief that Mrs. Zun gave to Ding, if you hide it again, you will cry on the bars tonight. As for me..."

   "Hey, hey, whether Ding can stand alone tonight and help his wife solve problems, depends entirely on Lord Zhu's next performance."
