Rice bug

When Zhu Ren was taken away, the innkeeper ran out disheveled.Presumably he had already rested, and with one hand tied to his belt, he stumbled out with his shoes on.

"Guardian! Guanye!" He saw his son, his eyes widened and he exclaimed, "What's going on? Guanye? Is there some misunderstanding?"

"Misunderstanding?" The Yacha was the one who caught Zang Feilong before, and this time he got both stolen goods, so he can be regarded as able to do the job.His expression was relaxed, even a little proud, as if they managed to catch this person.

He pushed forward Lin Dong who was following behind, and said, "Look, is this a misunderstanding?"

The shopkeeper was old, and his eyesight was not very good. He took the lamp oil and beat it forward. After seeing the scars on Lin Dong's body, he suddenly lost his voice.

After a while, his hands trembled, and he kept muttering: "No, no, it must be a misunderstanding..."

Lin Dong looked at his cloudy eyes, the white hair on his ears and temples, and the wrinkles around his eyes seemed to have suddenly increased a lot.

He felt a little sad, seeing the shopkeeper turning the lamp oil to look at the man, "Son, you...you..."

The man didn't look at him, he just raised his jaw, expressionless.His eyelids were swollen from the beating, and he looked as if he had kept his eyes closed.

"Why...why..."

The Yacha said impatiently: "If you want to know why, come to the court to listen." He pushed the man and let him go forward, without contempt, and said: "I also want to know why."

Early the next morning, many people surrounded the gate of the magistrate's yamen, and many people talked about it.

This one said: "I knew he was not a good person. I heard from the people on the dock before that he was very angry, tsk tsk..."

The one said: "I also think he has weird eyes all the time. You didn't see him. He looked at the young son of the book stall owner before. He looked scary."

Some people also said: "How could this happen? At least he is a scholar. His father is old and has a son, and he never treated him badly..."

There are all kinds of words, some doubts, some contempt.Zang Feilong stood impatiently at the door with his arms folded, he couldn't get in, only Lin Dong was brought in.

From a distance, someone shouted from behind: "Brother Lin!"

Zang Feilong was still meditating, the man yelled several times, someone next to him looked back and reached out to pat Zang Feilong's arm.

"Young man, the man called you."

"Ah?" Zang Feilong turned around in a daze, and saw Li Yan waving outside the crowd.

"Brother Lin!"

Only now did Zang Feilong remember that his surname was "Lin" for the time being.

He walked over with a bad face and said, "What's the matter?"

"I heard the news that Brother Ling was injured?" Li Yan was really good at being a man. While talking, the attendant on the other side came over with a wooden box.Zang Feilong stretched out his hand to open it, and it was full of wound medicine.

Li Yan worried again: "Is your brother alright?"

Talking about this, Zang Feilong felt very guilty, and said perfunctorily: "No... big deal." He reached out to take the box and added, "Thanks."

"What are you talking about?" Li Yan felt guilty, "I asked you to help, otherwise I wouldn't..."

Zang Feilong basically didn't listen to what he was saying, and turned his head to look at the gate of the yamen.

Seeing that he didn't want to listen, Li Yan rolled his eyes and said cleverly: "I know people in the yamen, if brother Lin wants to go in, I'll just go and talk."

Zang Feilong wanted to nod subconsciously, but when he remembered Lin Dong's face of ignoring him, he felt terrified. After thinking for a long time, he shook his head, "Forget it, I'll just wait here."

Li Yan asked suspiciously, "Brother Lin...what happened to Brother Ling?"

Zang Feilong ignored him, turned around and left, "It's none of your business."

Li Yan hurriedly followed, "Don't say that, I have to thank you for helping me. If you need my help, just tell me, you're welcome."

Zang Feilong stopped and turned his head slowly, "You...can you help me with anything?"

"That's it." Li Yan nodded quickly.

Zang Feilong pouted, "I made him unhappy, tell me, is there any way to make him happy?"

"Huh?" Li Yan really didn't expect such a request, and he was a little puzzled.

After a while, he cautiously asked: "Dare to ask, why...why did you upset him?"

Zang Feilong was a little embarrassed, lowered his voice and said awkwardly: "It's just...he trusts me very much, and then I failed his trust."

"That's it..." Li Yan raised his eyebrows, rubbed his chin, and said, "This is not an easy matter. If it's a child arguing and getting angry, it's fine, but it's about trust..."

Li Yan also lowered his voice, and said: "Don't blame me for talking too much, I see that although Brother Ling is smiling, he is not a good person to get along with. If he is betrayed by his temperament, it will definitely not be easy to calm down."

People say that the more easy-going people seem to get along with, the scarier it is to lose their temper.

Zang Feilong was even more heartbroken by what he said.He held the box with a dazed expression on his face. He had never encountered such a thing before.If he offends others, he will offend if he offends. He can do whatever he likes, and he has never apologized to anyone.

But it seems that since I met Lin Dong, every time I apologize, I am always the one who makes mistakes.Even though one moment he thought he was right, the next moment he would regret it.

He turned around in a circle impatiently, like a big anxious lion.Seeing that he was full of hostility, Li Yan couldn't help saying: "Brother Lin looks carefree and alone, but I feel sorry for brother."

Zang Feilong cast a glance at him, Li Yan said with a smile: "Well, since I promise you, I will try my best to help. Why don't Brother Lin stay away for a while and let me find out."

Zang Feilong thought for a while, then said in a rough voice, "That's up to you."

Li Yan nodded, "Brother Lin, don't worry."

At this time, in the yamen, there was another scene.

Lin Dong sat on the side, and answered what should be answered. At that time, the stolen goods were also obtained, so there was no difficulty.

Zhu Ren's surname is Chen, and the single name has the word Li. Because the family members have little knowledge, the name they choose is very common and easy to forget.So after having Biaozi, Chen Li hated being called by his name very much, and every time he introduced himself, he would say Biaozi first.

Speaking of Chen Li, there was nothing wonderful in his life.Father is the storekeeper for the family, and mother is an ordinary peasant woman who gets up early and returns late, raising chickens and farming.There is also a mother-in-law in the family, but her old eyes are dim, and she is sick all over her body. The family can't save much money even if they are exhausted.

But the family is honest people, living well, and there is nothing to be sorry for their conscience.The most proud, of course, is this son, who has been able to study since he was a child, and is often praised by his teachers.

Chen Liman thought that he was full of talent and learning, and would be able to become a high-ranking official in the future, but he didn't want to fail the exam every year, and later passed the exam, and because he didn't have money to make connections, he was squeezed out by another rich young master .

When the official document arrived, the young master rode to the capital in a dignified manner with his luggage servant, but he was left behind.

From then on, Chen Li stopped studying. While finding a job in the wharf to count goods, he spent most of his life doing nothing.

Not long after, the family began to rush to find a wife. There were many honest girls who were willing to marry, but he didn't like it.

For a while, they think they are illiterate, and for a while they think they can't play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

His father couldn't do anything about it. In the end, the girls were rejected one by one, but he still couldn't find a suitable woman.

One day after that, Chen Li went out to the pier, and met a handsome young man on the way. The young man was talking about the number one talent in the capital, his face was flushed, and his eyebrows were beaming.

He suddenly felt that that face was extremely disturbing, and that smug look only disgusted people.

And the result, of course, needless to say.

The master took down his confession, and looked at him a few more times, his face full of regret.

It's a pity that the handsome scholar who used to be admired by everyone has come to this end now.So jealousy is the ugliest face.

He handed over the written paper, Chen Li drew it, and the yamen servant on the side carried him inside.

Lin Dong suddenly said, "Do you think you deserve it?"

Chen Li turned his head, his eyes were still high and swollen, and his original handsome appearance was long gone.He grinned his toothless mouth and said, "I don't think so."

The clerk felt that he had never seen such a disgusting person, so he pushed him and urged, "Let's go!"

Lin Dong watched his back disappear from sight, then stood up and walked out slowly.Once this matter was over, no one paid any attention to him. The magistrate and master talked for a while, then left with a flick of his sleeve.

The yamen guards standing around looked at him curiously at most. As he walked out of the yamen, someone beside him said, "Mr. Lin, my master is here to invite you."

Lin Dong glanced at him and recognized Li Yan's man.

"I want to go back and sleep for a while." He rubbed his eyes and said.

The attendant couldn't bear it, but he still said: "In the restaurant that I don't want, my master has prepared good dishes."

Lin Dong felt a little hungry. Just as he was about to move forward, he suddenly remembered what happened the night before.

Of course he knew why Zang Feilong didn't show up in time, but it was because he ate what Chen Li gave him.But at that time, he couldn't stop eating. If he didn't eat anything, it would just make the other party suspicious.

But when he thought about it, he suddenly lost his appetite. He rubbed his stomach, smacked his lips and said, "Forget it, I won't eat."

The attendant was a little taken aback, "But..."

"Say thank you to him, and go find him when I'm full of sleep."

Walking all the way back to the inn, Zang Feilong didn't wait for him at the entrance of the government office.Lin Dong pursed his lips. When he stepped into the door of the inn, he felt listless. He didn't even want any magic cookbooks. He just wanted to find a place to stay peacefully.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a hearty voice behind him, it was so loud and filled with ruffian air.

"Come out from the shopkeeper! I want to inquire about someone!"

"Who?" The innkeeper temporarily changed to a new shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper came out with a smile, rubbed his hands and said, "Young master, why don't you talk while eating inside?"

As Lin Dong walked in, he was still thinking: this newcomer can do business.

The man said: "I want to find a beast, I heard it's here? The one that killed several teenagers."

Lin Dong was stunned for a moment, and the people around were also stunned, turning their heads and looking back.

I saw a young man in white military uniform standing in front of the door under the sun.He may be about the same size as himself, with a pair of knives on his back, and a carriage parked behind him.

He has high black hair, and although his face facing the light is delicate and thick eyebrows, it shows a bit domineering.

His eyes are big and bright, his nose bridge is high, his mouth is grinning, his hips are crossed, and he speaks carelessly, but his appearance is somewhat familiar.

"Cough cough...cough cough..." There was a coughing sound from the carriage, and the sound was a bit muffled.

Lin Dong looked at the young man curiously for a while, and the other party seemed to feel his gaze and looked over.
