Chapter 142 Meeting the Old Beggar Again

In the quiet room, bright oil lamps illuminated.

Xiao Li, who stepped into the room, looked around with slightly nervous eyes.

She was very clear about the structural layout of the room. After scanning the empty room, behind the screen, she saw a person sitting at the table not far away.

Is that the big man? !
Xiao Li's heart skipped a beat, she was extremely nervous!

Thinking of what he said before, his little face was full of worry.

Then, she adjusted her emotional breathing, and then said softly: "My lord, Xiao Li from my servant has met you!"

silence.

"come on!"

The voice sounded faintly.

At this moment, Xiao Li's heart hangs even more.

After hesitating for a while standing there, he took light steps and crossed the screen.

A figure was sitting at the table behind the screen.

To Xiao Li's surprise, a handsome young man appeared in her sight!He looks a little handsome, with an indescribably noble temperament all over his body.

Whether it's appearance, temperament, or the clothes on the other party's body, they are all extraordinary.

Right now, this son-in-law was sitting quietly at the table, drinking tea alone, and a faintly cold breath could be heard.

This big shot is so young?

Xiao Li was stunned, a little surprised!

She originally thought that the other party would be a middle-aged bald man with a big belly, but she didn't expect to be such a good-looking young man?
"Xiao Li has seen the young master!"

After being slightly stunned, Xiao Li quickly adjusted his mood and bowed to salute.

At the same time, Wu Yuan also raised his head and glanced at the little Li girl in front of him.

The eyes are calm, there is nothing special, and there is no other look.

He quietly looked Xiao Li up and down, and then nodded slightly: "Come and sit down."

When Wu Yuan's eyes fell on her, Xiao Li was extremely nervous at first, but he found that this young master's eyes were not as burning as those of others.

In the past, those guests who came to Chunfengyuan almost looked at her with fiery eyes, with undisguised desire, as if they wanted to eat her.

But the son in front of him doesn't seem to be as impatient as he imagined?
installed?

In any case, Xiao Li was slightly relieved, and after a little hesitation, he walked forward slowly and sat down.

"You are Xiaoli?"

Wu Yuan glanced at her and asked meaningfully.

"Back to the son, the servant's house is right!"

"Miss Xiao Li is beautiful and beautiful, she really lives up to her reputation!" Wu Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile.

"Thank you for your compliment!"

Xiao Li nodded slightly, and seemed to think of something: "My lord, do you know me?"

"do not know!"

Wu Yuan shook his head: "However, I've heard of it!"

"Before I came here, I heard from others that Miss Li from Chunfengyuan is beautiful and unparalleled in beauty. When I saw her today, it was as expected!"

"My lord is absurdly praised. It's just a false name boasted by others. I can't count it. I'm just an ordinary brothel girl!" Xiao Li shook his head, but his heart was slightly relaxed.

This son, doesn't seem like a difficult person to get along with?
So polite, is she worrying too much?

Seeing that the young master did not speak, Xiao Li took the initiative to say: "I have never seen the young master in the city before, so the young master is not a local?"

"It's not!"

Wu Yuan shook his head, glanced at her, and said with a meaningful smile: "I'm new here, and I'm not very familiar with this place. There are some things, can I ask Miss Xiao Li for advice?"

"Young master, speak up!"

Miss Xiao Li nodded, facing this young master's polite appearance, it was quite different from those previous guests, on the contrary, it gradually made her feel at ease.

……

An hour later.

Pushing open the room, Xiao Li calmly walked out of the room and closed the door.

Just as she turned around and was about to leave, the bustard who had been waiting for a long time suddenly appeared in the corridor not far away, "Xiao Li!"

"What!" Xiao Li nodded slightly.

The old bustard sized Xiao Li up and down, and asked nervously: "That son, you and him..."

"That young man is very nice!"

Miss Xiaoli nodded.

"Then you haven't been caught by him..."

Miss Xiaoli shook her head.

The old bustard looked up and down, and a somewhat unbelievable look quickly appeared in his eyes.

That young master didn't do anything to Xiao Li?
Do other people have a lot of money?

Spending so much money and doing nothing?

"Then what are you doing with him in the room...?"

Xiao Li said: "The young master came from another place and happened to be bored, so he talked to the slave family and asked about the situation in the slave family..."

Xiao Li was also a little puzzled.

It's not that she hasn't seen some people come to places like brothels to talk to girls, complain about their grievances and so on.

But this son always gave her a strange feeling.

The way this young man looked at her was not as rude and disrespectful as other guests, which left a good impression on her.

"This young man should be a good man, right?"

Xiao Li guessed.

The old bustard frowned, puzzled.

She doesn't know if that young master is a good person, but right now she has some doubts... Is that young master bad?

……

inside the room.

After Miss Xiaoli left, Wu Yuan's eyes remained calm, he picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, with a meaningful smile on his face.

He has no interest in this brothel girl named Xiao Li!
As the second son of the Wu family in the capital, what kind of woman has he never seen?He has almost slept with the oirans in those well-known brothels in the capital, and he is already tired of playing!
Ordinary beautiful women are no longer in his eyes, not to mention that although this little Li is good-looking, she is far from the beauty of the city.

He is not interested.

but……

Chen Jianghe is right, this woman is very important!
Wu Yuan squinted his eyes, and a plan gradually took shape in his mind.

……

Silent night.

Shen Lin returned home exhausted.

The lights in the room have been turned off, Miao Miao should have already fallen asleep.

Shen Lin went back to the room, took a suit of clothes, and took a cold shower.After washing away the sweat and dust previously stained on my body, I changed into clean clothes, feeling refreshed.

Standing in the courtyard, Shen Lin's mind suddenly came up with the moves Xu Nuo performed tonight.

Every move is in his mind!

Standing in the courtyard, Shen Lin was in a state of mind, as if he could display it at any time.

At this moment, a voice next to him suddenly broke his meditation.

"Brother Shen Lin?!"

A slightly tired voice sounded.

Under the eaves not far away, Miao Miao was yawning, rubbing her eyes sleepily, and looking at Shen Lin in the courtyard: "Brother Shen Lin, are you back?"

"Yup!"

Shen Lin looked at Miaomiao under the eaves, and said in surprise, "You haven't slept yet?"

"Slept, just woke up..."

Miao Miao, who had already fallen asleep, heard the movement outside, so she got up to check and found that elder brother Shen Lin had returned.

"Brother Shen Lin, where have you been so late?"

"I went out to do some errands, and I came back a little late!"

Shen Lin explained softly, seeing Miao Miao under the eaves wearing only a dress and yawning constantly, he hurriedly said: "Okay, it's too late, you should go back and rest."

"Oh!"

Miao Miao nodded obediently, originally she was a little worried that brother Shen Lin didn't come back so late, but now that brother Shen Lin came back, she was relieved and went back to rest with peace of mind.

When Miao Miao returned to the room, Shen Lin also returned to his own room, lying on the bed, but couldn't sleep.

What comes to mind is still about Miao Miao's identity.

Who is Miaomiao?

What is the relationship between them and Miao Miao, whom the Wu family is looking for?
Although it is not completely sure right now, Shen Lin knows that it is almost inseparable. The person they are looking for is probably related to Miaomiao and Uncle Lin.

Uncle Lin suddenly left Miao Miao behind and handed Miao Miao over to him to take care of his descendants, who disappeared without a trace, somewhat irresponsible.

But based on Shen Lin's understanding of Uncle Lin, Uncle Lin is not such an irresponsible person.Then it means that there may be some things that Uncle Lin can't grasp, which makes him have to do this!

What really happened?
Shen Lin, who couldn't figure this out, lay on his back on the bed, looking at the beams, his eyes slightly darkened.

No matter what Miao Miao's identity is, it doesn't affect Shen Lin's hatred for Wu Yuan!

In his mind, Wu Yuan is already a dead man!

Minister of the Ministry of officials?

It is indeed a very big official, so big that if Shen Lin offends, he will most likely die!
However, this hatred must be avenged!
Not only for Miao Miao, but also for the 72 souls of the small fishing village who died unjustly!
If he was in Beijing, with Shen Lin's ability, he would have no chance of revenge at all.

What Xu Nuo said is correct, the Wu family is so powerful that even if there is evidence to prove that the villagers in the small fishing village committed homicide, they may not be able to convict him, let alone no evidence?

The monstrous power can easily turn black and white and distort the facts.

Shen Lin, a small headhunter, was powerless to resist.

But this is not the capital!
This is Qingshui County, a remote small county far away from the bustling center of the Daning Dynasty.

Here there is neither the prosperity of the capital nor the power of the capital!Yes, it is the sophistication and survival rules unique to small places!
As the saying goes, the sky is high and the emperor is far away.Shen Lin, who has lived in this small county for two and a half years, already knows Qingshui County well.

As long as Wu Yuan stays in Qingshui County for a day, Shen Lin will not have no chance at all!
"Killing skills..."

Shen Lin narrowed his eyes slightly and muttered to himself, remembering what he promised earlier.

"All martial arts in the world can be called killing skills?"

"So……"

Shen Lin lowered his head and looked at his hands.

"To kill him, what martial arts do you need?"

"..."

early morning.

The inner and outer surfaces of the county seat are peaceful and peaceful, but there is an undercurrent surging behind it.

The county government's police officers were still running around the city and outside the city, searching for the murderer's whereabouts inside and outside Qingshui County.

The common people talked a lot, discussing the truth about the murder case in the small fishing village, and various conspiracy theories spread.The people were panicked, and the county magistrate Xu had to post a notice to appease people.

With so many people dead, it is natural that the higher-ups cannot hide it according to common sense.But the case was temporarily suppressed because of the promised intervention.Even though there was a lot of commotion in Qingshui County, it did not attract the attention of the higher authorities.

For this reason, magistrate Xu was relieved!

If this case was brought up, he might be the county magistrate.Now that the case is suppressed, it is indeed the best result for him.

As for why Xu promised to do so, the reason is self-evident!
It was related to the Wu family, and also related to her purpose of coming to Qingshui County. Naturally, Xu Nuo didn't want the matter to make a big splash and attract too many people's attention.

In addition, the truth of this case is well known, so there is no need to waste too much time and energy.

At the same time, Shen Lin, the head arrester of the county government, did not go out of the city to search for the whereabouts of the murderer.After confirming that Wu Yuan was the murderer, Shen Lin made people watch all the movements of Wu Yuan and his subordinates day and night.

As for the two guards who died in Shen Lin's hands last night, they were sent to the county government for the crime of breaking into a famous house.

Wu Yuan must have been very angry when he heard about this. Not only did he suffer at Shen Lin's place last night, but even his guards died. This is a great shame.

As for when he will retaliate?

Shen Lin didn't know, but he was not too worried because he had been prepared for a long time.

As usual, Shen Lin appeared on the streets to patrol the streets.

While patrolling the county seat, maintaining the stability of the county government.On the other hand, it was also to try to figure out Wu Yuan's details.

He wanted to find out how many guards and masters Wu Yuan had around him?

Just as Shen Lin passed by a restaurant, he suddenly heard a familiar sound of cursing.

"Smelly beggar, you dare to come?! Court death!!"

Shen Lin stopped and turned around.

Not far from the entrance of the restaurant, a dirty figure was thrown out by the guard at the entrance of the restaurant.

"Young people, if you don't know how to respect the old, you will be unlucky sooner or later!"

The old beggar slowly got up from the ground, patted the dust on his body symbolically, and babbled.

While muttering, he stroked his stomach.Since he was found out and kicked out, he had no choice but to change places.

The old beggar turned around and was about to change his house when he suddenly saw a familiar figure standing on the street.

"Finally, you have shown up!"

Shen Lin quietly looked at the old beggar in front of him, and sneered, "I've been looking for you for a long time!"

So many things happened these days, Shen Lin almost forgot his grudge with this old beggar!

The old beggar was startled when he saw Shen Shi, and couldn't help muttering: "You really have a ghost..."

Shen Lin remembered the experience of being "taken advantage of" by this old beggar a few days ago, and suddenly became angry.

"Today I have to settle this account with you. Let me see where you can go!"

Today's Shen Lin has become a head catcher, a servant who can command and order the entire county government.He wants to see, where else can this old beggar go?

However, the old beggar seemed to have no intention of running away this time.

"Account? What account?"

The old beggar looked puzzled, and then suddenly there was a strange noise in his stomach, he subconsciously touched his stomach, and sighed: "Oh, I haven't eaten for a day, this old man is about to starve to death..."

As he said that, he glanced sideways at Shen Lin: "Your boy came just in time, please invite me to dinner!"

When Shen Lin heard this, he almost laughed angrily.

Invite him to dinner?

Want to blackmail?

This old beggar is really daring!

"The last time you blackmailed me, you haven't settled with you yet. How dare you send it to your door today?!"

Shen Lin immediately sneered, stepped forward, and wanted to turn the old beggar down and send him back to the yamen for interrogation and beating.

The old beggar stood where he was, neither dodging nor dodging.The moment Shen Lin approached, the old beggar suddenly spoke lazily.

"Boy, do you want to heal the wound on your body?"

Shen Lin paused, staring at him suddenly: "What did you say?!"

"..."
