This arena is not ordinary

Chapter 43
Night falls.

Shen Lin dragged his slightly tired body back home.

After running around all day, the case still hasn't made much progress.

After leaving the morgue, Shen Lin went to Chunfengyuan again, wanting to find out the insiders of Chunfengyuan from the old bustard.

But after all, Chunfengyuan is a romantic place, with many people and complex situations, it is not easy to find out in a short time.

However, the old bustard vowed that he would investigate clearly and give Shen Lin an explanation.

But looking at it right now, Shen Lin still got nothing today.

The case seems to have reached a dead end.

Tired!

After returning home, Shen Lin couldn't help but sigh with emotion, he was used to fooling around, and suddenly one day he was asked to handle and investigate such a case, it was really embarrassing for him.

The continuous running around this day is indeed exhausting both mentally and physically.

However, this matter is related to his current safety, Shen Lin has to take it seriously.

The county magistrate gave him three days, and until the end of today, Shen Lin still didn't find many useful clues.

Only two days left!

Two days later, Xu Ping'an will be executed, and Shen Lin, obviously, will not end well.

His position as a fast catcher must not be kept, even if the county magistrate doesn't pursue too much.But without the protection of this official uniform, would Chen Jianghe let him go?

If the murderer cannot be found, Shen Lin may have to start thinking about running away!

If you want to survive, you have to get out of here.

As for where to go?

The territory of the Daning Dynasty was vast, and there were many places Shen Lin could go to.

It's just that after coming here for so long, Shen Lin has never left Qingshui County.All the news outside of Qingshui County was only heard from Xu Ping'an.

Difficult!

Shen Lin sighed and returned to the courtyard.

The yard was quiet, dark and silent.

No one is empty.

Shen Lin suddenly remembered the heroine who left yesterday, since she left yesterday until now, she has never appeared again.

gone?

Leaving without saying goodbye?
Sure enough, a woman's nonsense cannot be believed.

Shen Lin sighed. Originally, because she taught him such powerful swordsmanship, he thought she was an honest and trustworthy person, but he didn't expect...

Still careless!

You really can't believe the bad woman's nonsense!
Xu Ping'an is about to lose his life because of the bad woman, but he lost a total of 1000 taels...

lost heavily!

Bad women do a lot of harm!
……

After sighing, Shen Lin changed his clothes, got into the kitchen and started cooking.

After dinner, Shen Lin lay on the rocking chair in the courtyard and looked up at the sky. While digesting, he was in a daze, thinking about life for a while!

Is there anything to think about in life?
Obviously not!

After coming to this world to fish in troubled waters for two and a half years, Shen Lin did have a lot of ideas about Hongda ideals at the beginning.

For example, taking part in the imperial examination, entering the officialdom, being appointed as an official and paying homage to the prime minister to make some political achievements, leaving a name in history!
Another example is copying those poems and songs from the previous life, happy people will show their sages in front of them, and leave the title of poet fairy and poet sage in the world, which will last forever.

For example, making small inventions, promoting the advanced ideas of later generations, liberating the minds of the people, princes and generals, rather have...

Thoughts appeared quickly, but quickly dissipated.

There is no other reason, it is purely because of Shen Linlan!

Yes, lazy!
Life is already so difficult, it is better to lie down and be happy!
For Shen Lin, thinking about life has become a good way to simply pass the time.

He derived from the ideal of life to the realm of philosophy, and then to the theory of cosmic explosion, and even the profound and mysterious knowledge of whether noodles should be mixed with No. 98 concrete...

These messy thoughts flashed through his mind quickly, for no reason, and Liu Xu's figure suddenly appeared in Shen Lin's mind.

Yesterday, in this courtyard, a willow catkin dressed in plain clothes held a knife, replaced the sword with a knife, joined hands in plain clothes, and displayed that set of swordsmanship with a light posture!

Every move, together with her figure, was imprinted in Shen Lin's mind, clearly visible.

Shen Lin suddenly felt something brewing in his chest.He got up subconsciously, picked up the wooden stick in the corner of the courtyard, replaced the sword with the wooden stick, and slowly closed his eyes.

In his mind, the tricks that Liu Xu demonstrated emerged.

Clear and familiar!
Something seemed to emerge from Shen Lin's body, he slowly raised the wooden stick in his hand, and began to make gestures following the moves in his mind.

At the beginning, the movements were very slow, and he moved slowly, very gracefully!
After several times, the speed gradually increased, and the wooden stick whistled in the air.

Until the end, the speed of the sword move suddenly accelerated, sharp and swift!
A huge aura roared out along the wooden stick in Shen Lin's hand, swaying the air around.

"Snapped!"

When Shen Lin suddenly turned his head and stabbed at the moon, a familiar air surged in his body and burst out!

The wooden stick in his hand broke instantly.

Shen Lin suddenly opened his eyes, looked at the wooden stick in his hand, and breathed heavily.

"Is this considered learned?"

Shen Lin looked down at the broken stick and muttered to himself.

At that moment just now, he seemed to have realized the true meaning of this set of swordsmanship. He only felt it was very familiar, as if it was engraved in his mind, and he couldn't wait to show it.

Staring at the broken stick in his hand, Shen Lin sighed slightly.

It seems that after a while, I will have to find a good sword!

The wooden stick is still useless after all!
but……

The premise is if there is still a chance.

Right now, Shen Lin needs to solve the current crisis.

How to find out the murderer who killed Rulin and rescue Xu Pingan!

Shen Lin, who was thinking in the courtyard, always felt that there was something important in this case that he had ignored.

But I couldn't remember it for a while.

What is the problem?

Early the next morning, Shen Lin got up early and arrived at the yamen.

Afterwards, he went to the Yamen's cell.

The dark and smelly cell, mixed with the smell of blood, was particularly disgusting.

Xu Ping'an was locked in the innermost part of the cell.

When he saw Xu Ping'an through the iron fence, he was much haggard.The originally strong body seemed to have lost more than a dozen catties in one day.

His face was haggard and his eyes were dull.

It was full of gloom, as if it had suffered a big blow.

It wasn't until he saw Shen Shi appearing outside the cell that Xu Ping'an's empty eyes began to glow.

"Shen, Brother Shen..."

Xu Pingan moved his lips, seemed to think of something again, startled: "You, you were also arrested?"

"Hurry up, I'll go with you in two days!"

Shen Lin glanced at him and sighed secretly.

This kid looks so dejected, it seems that this incident has dealt a heavy blow to him.

Right!

After all, Xu Ping'an is still a pure young man who has never been out of the rivers and lakes, and has never been beaten.

As soon as he came back from the mountain, he became a yamen servant in Qingshui County. After a few years, he was like a flower growing in a greenhouse.

The scapegoat this time made him inexplicably about to lose his life, and whoever it was, probably wouldn't be any better than him.

However, if he can survive this time, it must be a very good lesson for him.

"I won't talk nonsense with you anymore, I have a few questions for you!"

Shen Lin looked at Xu Ping'an in the cell, and didn't continue to talk nonsense: "It is related to your life or not, you must be honest and tell me everything carefully!"

Xu Pingan was taken aback, and there seemed to be a hint of disbelief in his eyes.

He looked at Shen Lin in a daze: "Brother Shen, you..."

He originally thought that he was doomed this time!

He was thrown into jail by the county magistrate yesterday, and will be executed three days later.

Xu Ping'an was ready to wait for death, and even wrote a suicide note.

It's a pity that the literary talent is not enough, otherwise he would have to write a few chapters about "everyone in life has died since ancient times".

at the moment……

Brother Shen is still thinking about saving him?

This ignited a glimmer of hope in Xu Ping'an's mind.

"Brother Shen, you, what do you want to ask?"

"How much do you know about Miss Li from Chunfengyuan and Miss Rulin? Who do they know? Who do they have more contact with on weekdays?"

"Tell me everything you know, everything!"

Xu Pingan was startled, and looked at Shen Lin blankly: "Brother Shen, you, why are you asking this?"

Shen Lin glanced at him, and said angrily: "You are going to die, I don't need to know more about this, so I can help you take care of Miss Xiaoli later?"

Xu Pingan: "..."

"..."
