Yan Shu looked at Li Changtian, and saw that his head was still covered with fishy egg liquid and eggshells, and there were some rotten vegetable stalks. He obviously looked embarrassed and pitiful, but Li Changtian was full of smiles, looking like he was having fun in bitterness.
Yan Shu muttered for a while, but said nothing.
After the county magistrate at the side persuaded the people to leave, he turned his head and saw that Yan Shu's sleeves were covered with stains, and hurriedly said: "Oh, my lord, go into the house and change into clean clothes, and wash them well."
Yan Shu nodded, and asked the servants to bring two basins of hot water, and Li Changtian and Li Changtian each cleaned up in the wing room.
Li Changtian cleaned his hair and washed his face, and suddenly heard Yan Shu say: "Since you are innocent, you should argue instead of being angry."
Li Changtian smiled and said, "Forget it, who would believe it."
Yan Shu said, "I'll explain it for you."
"There are so many people in this small town, can you explain it door to door? You don't think it's troublesome, but I think you're burdened! And the real criminal hasn't been caught yet, so I can't give everyone an explanation." Li Changtian shook his head. Shaking his head, he put the towel in his hand into the hot water and rubbed it.
Yan Shu suddenly said coldly: "Failure to catch the criminal does not mean that the innocent people can be wronged."
He was obviously angry, gnashing his teeth and staring at the water basin in front of him.
Li Changtian was a little puzzled, he didn't understand where Yan Shu's nameless anger came from, he thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Then please sir find out the real culprit, and return my innocence."
"Okay." Yan Shu answered loudly.
After the two finished cleaning up the stains, Yan Shu took Li Changtian to see the county magistrate, and explained to him in detail why Li Changtian was not a prisoner.
It is rare for Yan Shu to be eloquent. Although he has been as concise as possible, compared with his usual coldness, Yan Shu at this moment gives the county magistrate the illusion that he will finish talking for half his life.
"So he is not a prisoner." Yan Shu ended with this sentence.
"Ah!" The county magistrate suddenly came back to his senses, bowed his hands together, "Your Excellency is really perceptive, wise and powerful, extraordinary in intelligence, exquisite in seven orifices, beautiful and intelligent, deep! Ming! Great! Righteous! Ah!"
Yan Shu: "..."
Li Changtian: "Is the idiom dictionary perfect?"
"That's right." Yan Shu suddenly remembered something, took out the fish-shaped jade pendant, and handed it to the county magistrate, "Please take a look, do you agree?"
The county magistrate took the jade pendant, squinted his eyes, and saw that the jade pendant was exquisitely crafted and of extraordinary value, with the word 'money' engraved on the front, and suddenly realized: "Ah!"
"What's the matter? Do you recognize it?" Li Changtian rushed to ask.
"There is only one family with the surname of Qian in the town, but... hey." The county magistrate shook his head, "It's not easy to mess with, and Mr. Qian is our biggest landlord. You know, my lord, that fields and food are the common people. Therefore, no one dares to offend this landlord, for fear that he will starve to death if he has no land to grow. This Lord Qian is usually domineering, and has raised a bunch of thugs to save himself. .”
"So?" Yan Shu said coldly.
The county magistrate paused for a moment: "It's just... difficult to deal with. If your lord has something to ask this Lord Qian, the subordinate official will go to Qian's mansion with your lord, and he should give him some face."
"Face?" Yan Shu's eyes were cold, "Where is the mansion?"
"East side of the town, hey! My lord, listen to me, the thugs raised by Mr. Qian are all vicious masters! They are not good stubble! Before this Mr. Qian often beat people and committed crimes, I asked the yamen servants to arrest them , As a result, they all came back with bruises and swollen faces, and they have been recuperating for a long time, oops!" The county magistrate stopped Yan Shu who got up to leave.
"Don't worry, please go to the yamen and wait." Yan Shu walked sideways past the county magistrate, and strode out.
"Hey! I'll go with you, I can help!" Li Changtian trotted, trying to keep up with Yan Shu, "I'm blindfolded, so no one will recognize me."
Yan Shu's footsteps stopped suddenly, and Li Changtian almost bumped into him.
Yan Shu turned around and said to Li Changtian, "Rest here, you are injured."
Li Changtian waved his hand indifferently: "It's okay, I'm not dead or disabled, it's just a minor injury! Look at me alive and kicking now!"
Yan Shu: "You have injuries."
Li Changtian: "When I was in the hut before, even though I was injured all over, I couldn't still restrain you."
Yan Shu: "You have injuries."
Li Changtian: "Yesterday you gave me medicine, and I had a good night's rest. I'm really fine now!"
Yan Shu: "On you..."
Li Changtian broke down: "Ah, brother, can you change the words?!"
Yan Shu said, "Wait for me to come back."
After finishing speaking, Yan Shu leaped into the air, swept across the willow trees and eaves in the courtyard, and disappeared in an instant.
"Hey, you... 嗐..." Li Changtian stretched out his hand and shouted twice in vain.
Then Li Changtian turned his head to look at the county magistrate at the side, pointed in the direction where Yan Shu disappeared, and asked, "Can you? I want to learn."
The county magistrate: "..."
I can be a broom, I can, if you want to learn a watermelon, you can learn.
-
A quarter of an hour later, the bully Lord Qian woke up because of the noise of fighting outside the door. He put on his clothes and got up, yelling: "Which dog disturbs people's sleep so early in the morning, you want to die!!!"
As soon as Master Qian opened the door of the wing room, a family servant rushed over: "Master! Someone from outside forced his way through the door and asked him why he broke in, but he didn't answer, just a word, asking where you are!"
"Break in?" Master Qian snorted coldly as if he had heard some joke, picked up the nine-ringed machete on the iron frame in the room, and asked, "How many people? I'll let them come and go!"
"Alone!" said the servant.
"What the hell? Alone? Let Niu San and the others stop it! Usually everyone eats and drinks like a master, but where are they all dead now?" Master Qian said angrily.
"Master, they all went, but...but..." The servant wiped his cold sweat.
"They can't stop it."
The cold voice followed the servant's words.
Master Qian was taken aback, looked up, and saw a young man in white standing in front of the wing at some point, with a calm expression and cold eyes, with one hand hanging by his side and the other on the sword hilt at his waist.
"Ah!" The servant was startled by Yan Shu's sudden appearance, trembling.
"Go away." Knowing that something happened, Master Qian asked the servant to leave.
The servant ran away rolling and crawling.
"This little brother, I don't know why you came to visit abruptly, why?" Master Qian clasped his fists, intending to salute first and then fight, "You have extraordinary skills, and I admire you. There are some things that we don't have to do, right?"
Yan Shu nodded: "Yes, follow me to the Yamen."
"That's unlucky, sir, I'm not free today." Master Qian sneered.
Yan Shu said, "It's up to you."
"Hey! What a big tone!" Master Qian said, his eyes widened, and he rushed towards Yan Shu, holding a silver nine-ringed machete in his right hand, and slashed at Yan Shu's shoulder.
Yan Shu stood still, staring closely at Master Qian's right hand holding the knife.
Master Qian was startled and confused, and was about to pull back. He only intended to scare Yan Shu, and didn't want his life.
However, just as Master Qian was about to unload his strength and withdraw the knife, Yan Shu suddenly moved. He grabbed the wrist of Master Qian's knife-holding hand with lightning speed and twisted it fiercely.
Master Qian felt the pain, so he relaxed, and the big knife clattered to the ground.
At the same time, Yan Shu stepped on Master Qian's calf, causing him to stagger forward and kneel heavily.
Just as Master Qian was about to struggle, Yan Shu took down the saber from his waist, and firmly clamped Master Qian's fragile neck with the scabbard.
Master Qian didn't move anymore, he knew he couldn't win.
Because of Yan Shu, not only did he subdue him with one move, but also Yan Shu's sword was not even out of its sheath.
