This warrior is so fierce

Chapter 315 Pressure
"Hearing what you said, this matter is indeed a bit strange."

It's not that Cao Su doesn't want to help, he doesn't have many friends in Shendu, and Yang Ping and Guo Quan are relatively well-managed literati friends.

I didn't expect to see each other for a while, and there is a separation between heaven and man.

The chaos of the world appeared, and even in the capital city of the gods, the head of the empire, they could not live in peace.

"I shouldn't have disturbed Brother Cao."

"But it's a pity that I am a soft-spoken person. I just want to do my last bit for Brother Guo, so I come to ask Brother Cao for help."

Yang Ping is very smart, he has spent a long time in Shendu, and he is not the same as Guo Quan, a scholar who "comes from other places".

In the city of God, anything can happen, and being an ordinary young man who doesn't understand anything is the happiest thing.

The more you know, the more trouble you have.

But he couldn't convince himself that his education didn't allow him to turn a blind eye.

So he came to Cao Su for help, because he thought Cao Su was the same kind of person as him.

Cao Su said calmly, "I will definitely help with brother Guo's matter."

He expressed his attitude first, which made Yang Ping uncontrollably reveal a touch of joy.

Yang Ping hesitated for a moment, and took out a booklet from his arms.

"This is a cheat book that Brother Guo and I got by chance a few days ago. Brother Cao loves martial arts, so I wanted to give it to Brother Cao. Now that Brother Guo is gone, I just seized this opportunity to give it to Brother Cao."

The booklet is sewn with gold thread, and the words "Zhaixinggong" are written on it.

Cao Su was taken aback, took the cheat book from Yang Ping's hand and said, "How is this possible?"

"Brother Cao, just accept it, this is also Brother Guo's last wish."

Yang Ping's attitude is very firm, adhering to his brother's behest.

Cao Su asked curiously: "You two civil servants, how come you have martial arts secret books?"

Yang Ping shook his head: "Brother Cao doesn't know something, but in Shendu City, there is a place called 'Lingpu'."

Lingpu?

Cao Su had heard of it before, but he didn't know what this place was for.

Yang Ping explained: "'Lingpu' is the busiest treasure trading place in Shendu City. Many martial arts or ascetics who come to Shendu City will go to 'Lingpu' to participate in some activities held by 'Lingpu'. "

"Brother Guo and I participated in an 'auction' held by a family a few days ago. At that meeting, we obtained this cheat book from a down-and-out warrior."

"It's not such a profound secret book, but according to the rumors of the person who sold it, it is also an "advanced" movement method. Due to the rarity of the movement method, this secret book is still precious."

Cao Su understood, and the two of them wanted to take this cheat book to please him, but they didn't expect Guo Quan's cheat book to be sent out, and he disappeared.

Holding the cheat book in his hand, he sighed slightly.

Yang Ping said bluntly: "Brother Cao, although this item is not a precious item, you said when you were in the army that day that you have always been lacking in physical skills, so the two of us paid attention to it."

"Brother Yang, you have a heart."

Cao Su accepted the cheat book. What he said to the two people before was not good enough, and he just said it casually. He didn't expect the two to remember it in his heart. This really moved him a little.

Cao Su said silently: "Brother Guo's death needs a long-term plan."

"Suddenly died in Baihualou. This Baihualou must be inseparable. As for the Shendu Mansion you mentioned, we don't have to take care of it for the time being, and we can't take care of it."

What Cao Su said was the truth, and Yang Ping also thought so in his heart.

It's just that he is alone now, and his martial arts are common, so he found Cao Su and wanted Cao Su to help.

In his eyes, Cao Su is a "capable" person.

What's more, the current Cao Su is famous for resolving two cases, especially in Shendu Mansion, where a few police officers boasted that Cao Su was miraculous, and he has the reputation of "detecting cases like a god".

The two chatted for a while, and agreed on a time to meet later.

Then Cao Su got on his horse and quickly left the place where the two were talking.

Cao Su left the Gongwei Division.

I was thinking about Yang Ping and Guo Quan along the way.

On the surface, it seems to be a simple incident of "drinking flower wine and drinking dead people", but from Yang Ping's mouth, it seems that there is a big secret behind it.

If what Yang Ping said is true, then what roles do Baihualou and Shendu Mansion play here?
After Cao Su heard the news, he did not act rashly.

From his point of view, Guo Quan's death had little social impact.

Because Guo Quan is from Hua County, Xizhou, and his hometown is remote, although he works in Shendu, he is not a high-ranking official.

After people talked about this incident, they were first surprised, then puzzled, and then nothing.

In a few days, everyone who has been to Baihualou will forget about it.

Especially if Shendu Mansion intends to add fuel to the flames and simplify the matter, then Guo Quan may become a local anecdote in the future. After a few years, no one will remember him except those who often go to Baihualou.

"Why did Palace Master Shendu do this?"

Cao Su had contact with several policemen from Shendu Mansion, including the policeman Luo who went to Xiaotao Town to investigate the case together.

These fast catchers are average in martial arts, only a few of them are masters in the realm of strength, and they are a little more utilitarian, but they still have basic professional ethics.

Cao Su believed that if they had not received orders from their superiors, they would not have acted like this.

In this way, the master of Shendu Palace played an important role in this matter.

Cao Su felt a headache. The official rank of the master of Shendu is very high, one rank higher than the general master of the state capital.

Ordinary governors of state capitals can be up to the fourth rank, but the master of Shendu palace is already a senior official of the third rank. In terms of administrative level, he is already an official of the rank of six ministers.

"Shendu Mansion is temporarily untouchable."

Cao Su thought for a while, and felt that his previous thinking was still correct.

Go to Baihualou to investigate first, maybe you can find some clues, if this matter is really beyond his ability, he can only choose another strategy.

Definitely not going to work.

After thinking about it, he returned to the door of the house.

The nursing home in front of Cao's house was yawning boredly.

Cao's nursing home is all masters of Qi and blood.

If it is in Pingcheng, this level of nursing home can be regarded as the top of the local.

But in Shendu, this level of nursing home is only the most basic nursing home.

Some families with a little wealthier family background hired all the nurses who were masters of strength.

There are also some big families whose own nursing homes have been cultivated since childhood. Several generations have worked as nursing homes in the family. They grew up with the descendants of the family since childhood, and they also enjoy the training of some martial arts resources. They have a strong sense of belonging. Some even reached the category of "dead men".

Therefore, some guards in the family are also called "private soldiers".

After seeing Cao Su, the two nurses quickly stood up and saluted.

Cao Su nodded slightly and walked into the courtyard.

In the yard, both Cao's father and Cao's mother went out, only Liu Luan was arranging flowers at home.

"How did you arrange flowers today?"

Cao Su smiled and walked into the yard, where Liu Luan was bending over, carefully grafting the flowers growing in the yard into the vase.

Cao Su didn't understand such elegant things as flower arrangement.

Liu Luan was seriously arranging flowers, but when he heard Cao Su's voice, he raised his head happily and wiped the sweat from his forehead and chest.

"Uncle came back so early today?"

"It seems that the criticism from the day before yesterday is still effective!"

Liu Luan's skin was pale, and his chest was drenched with sweat, reflecting the crystal light in the sun.

Cao Su swept it away and said with a smile: "There is nothing wrong with the Secretary today, so I will come back earlier."

Liu Luan pointed to the broken petals under her feet, and said with a smile: "Since I came to Shendu, I met some female relatives in the nearby mansion. They told me about the flower arrangement."

"In the city of God, there are four great things, uncle, have you ever heard of them?"

Cao Su spends all day with elders, so he has never heard of this knowledge, and no one popularizes it with him.

Seeing Cao Su's silence, Liu Luan smiled slightly and said, "Burning incense, making tea, arranging flowers, and hanging paintings, these are the four elegant things."

Aren't these the four most boring things to do?
Cao Su thought that maybe non-cultivators like these four things. According to his pissing nature, he would rather spend his time on cultivation, after all, he has not yet achieved invincibility.

Fourth grade martial arts are not safe, there are too many dangerous things that can take his head.

"Okay, as long as sister-in-law likes it."

Cao Su knew that this was a matter of elegance, so naturally he would not spoil other people's elegance.

Liu Luan blushed slightly, and handed the vase with some flowers to Cao Su: "Uncle guards this house on weekdays, we all know that you are the hardest, and the slave family has nothing to give to uncle, so I just take this The freshly placed flowers are given to uncle."

Cao Su waved his hands quickly: "No way, no way."

"Does uncle think I'm not doing well?"

Liu Luan frowned slightly, and took the flowers to the side.

Cao Su didn't mean that, and explained: "The arrangement is pretty good, but I'm just a vulgar martial artist, I really don't know how to arrange flowers."

He blurted out and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law is interested, and when my brother comes back, you can give him this vase."

Liu Luan fell silent after hearing this. ,

Suddenly turned his head away, wanting to cry.

Cao Su knew he had said something wrong, and he didn't know how to comfort Liu Luan.

In fact, according to his age, Liu Luan is still a little younger than him. In his previous life, he was a college student who had just entered university.

But here, she is already married and has experienced the hardships of troubled times, and she still has to work hard for the continuous struggle of the entire Cao family.

The dual pressure of life and ethics is indeed great.
