Chapter 66: Dog butchery Ning

Since the third year of Emperor Shihuang, Ying Zheng issued an edict to build a road and recruit civil servants from all over the country.

Although Julu is located in the Three Jin Dynasties and has nothing to do with the war in the Southern Expedition, it is still inevitably affected by this aspect.

Liu Kan couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook her head!

I finally found this person, but unexpectedly encountered this kind of thing.

Xu Hei said: "However, the commission is almost over. If Liu Sheng is really anxious about this, he might as well wait for a few days.

I guess I will definitely come back before the end of the year.

But this guy has a weird temper. If Liu Sheng wants to ask him for advice, he needs some precautions. That's it. If Liu Sheng is willing, he might as well live in this Yishui Building. If Che Ning comes back, he might come here, which will be convenient at that time."

Liu Kan thought about it and felt that this was the only way to go.

After running for a long time, I arrived in Song Zi, so I couldn't return empty-handed. According to rumors, the war in the south is going smoothly now.

But Liu Kan knew one thing, that was only temporary success.

The real test will only begin after the conquest of Lingnan. If I could make medicinal wine before that, I would at least get another rank. The reason why Liu Kan was so eager to climb up was that he began to learn that he had carved the mark of the old Qin people.

Before this, he could be calm.

But now, more adequate plans must be made.

According to Qin laws, if there are twenty titles of military merits, whether it is a magistrate or a master, even if there is another title, it is still only a common class.

Although Liu Kan did not need to go to labor service due to the Wansui Wine, he always acted under the control of the government.

He is now a "scholar", but he is not a real "scholar". To be precise, Liu Kan is just an intern. Unless he can pass the fourth-class title, he will be considered a "scholar" in the true sense, and there will be many more conveniences in action.

However, how difficult is this step?

Only by killing a soldier can one be promoted... In the current situation, unless he participates in the war in the southern expedition of Baiyue, he must seek other ways. Liu Kan ponders for a moment, nods and says, "Since that's the case, then I'll wait for him to come back."

The owner of Yishui Building was naturally extremely happy.

It is a great thing for Duling’s Baccarat to live in his restaurant. Not to mention anything else, if you can get closer to Liu Kan and get Sishui Huadiao wine directly from him, at least a few exploitation can be reduced in the middle.

However, the owner also knew very well that since Xu Hei made such arrangements, he would have to give him some benefits.

Qin Law is extremely strict with officials. But this does not mean that all officials are good officials with a reputation as clear as water. The name of "Xu Du" is not fabricated out of thin air. This man is lustful and greedy for money, and is also a cruel official. He likes to torture prisoners the most. Even if it is a small mistake of sesame and mung beans, he can still produce a huge crime after he tosses.

The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. Since Mr. Xu is like this, Xu Hei, who is his servant, is not much better.

But Liu Kan doesn't care about these things. What can he do if he knows? How could he fight a county lieutenant by a small civilian?

How the owner pleased Xu Hei and how much money he paid has nothing to do with Liu Kan.

After asking for a quiet courtyard in Yishui Building, Liu Kan and his party lived there and waited patiently for Che Ning to appear.

Occasionally, Liu Kan would pay attention to the Gao Laotuo. There were several times when he wanted to make a cliché intention or unintentionally, but Gao Laotuo was very cautious. He stammered and distracted the topic, and sometimes he would pretend to be crazy and stupid, as smooth as a hedgehog.

After trying a few times, Liu Kan couldn't find out why.

If he wants to pretend, he will pretend. What does it have to do with himself? Among the survivors of the six countries, many of them are like Gao Laotuo. Why bother to be petty? Besides, what can I do if I know the truth? Could it be to deal with Gao Laotuo? Liu Kan never thought about it.

He had thought about climbing up, but he had never thought about climbing up by this method.

Gradually, Liu Kan lost interest in Gao Laotuo. He practiced martial arts competitions with Guan Ying, talked with Kuai Che, or watched Cheng Miao study his official script from the side. Sometimes when he went out for a walk, he would pull Guan Ying to drink with him when he was bored.

Days passed day by day, and before I knew it, it was already winter.

According to the latest law promulgated by the First Emperor, it should be the fourth year of the First Emperor. In November, heavy snow fell in the north.

On this day, Liu Kan was discussing the cavalry with Guan Ying, and the owner of Yishui Tower hurried over.

"Liu Sheng, Che Ning is back!"

Liu Kan stood up in surprise, "Is that guy back? Where is now?"

After waiting for more than a month, Liu Kan was patient, but it was also disappearing. Especially during this period, he also visited Mr. Xu several times. Xu Hei would come to him from time to time, which made him very upset. To be honest, everyone was not a member of the same place and could not pee in a pot.

The owner said, "Che Ning just came back... Someone saw him entering the city just now. I guess he was cooking at home now."

Liu Kan hurriedly said, "Master, can you please find someone for me and take us there?"

"What's the difficulty!"

The owner laughed and turned around and walked out of the courtyard, shouting at the top of his throat: "Camel, hunchback... Come here quickly."

Gao Laotuo limped at the gate of the courtyard.

"Camel, take Liu Sheng to Che Ning's house." The owner ordered: "Liu Sheng has important things and needs to discuss with him."

Why is it him?

Liu Kan looked at Gao Laotuo in confusion.

The owner explained: "Che Ning has a weird temper and is moody. Most people ignore it at all. However, this hunchback is quite a good match for him. When I was short selling Yanjiu, the hunchback would have just been running over to ask him for wine. If others go, Che Ning would not pay any attention. Only if the hunchback goes over, it will definitely be successful... Haha, with him leading the way, you will definitely see Che Ning."

After hearing the owner's explanation, Liu Kan felt relieved.

After taking a deep look at Gao Laotuo, he ordered Kuai Che and Cheng Miao to stay and take Guan Ying to go with Gao Laotuo.

"Lao Gao, you have a good relationship with Che Ning? Why haven't you heard of it?"

Liu Kan asked with a smile on the way.

Gao Laotuo hurriedly said, "Che Ning and I can't have a relationship, we just can speak... Maybe it's because they are all Yan people."

Yan people?

Liu Kan glanced at Gao Laotuo and did not ask any further questions.

Everyone has a secret, this hunch’s secret...hehe, I’m afraid it’s unusual!

Following the streets of Songzicheng, I quickly arrived at the east of the city. From a distance, I saw a towering ancient locust tree.

Under the locust tree, there is a simple house, and a small courtyard is built outside, with a wall of only six feet high.

Liu Kan and Guan Ying followed Gao Laotuo to the gate of the yard, and could see the scenery in the yard clearly and clearly at a glance.

Several ropes were lying across the yard, with copper hooks of varying thickness hanging.

There was a copper hook, and a bloody black dog was hanging on the exterior wall made of rammed earth.

Next to the door of the house, there is also a knife with a very unique shape.

The seven-foot-long copper handle looks a bit similar to the meat-cut butcher knife in later generations, but the blade is a bit amazing.

A trace of blood was shining at the edge of the knife, and the sun shone through the strange light.

Is it a dog slaughter or a person?

Liu Kan couldn't help but be careful. She turned her head and looked at Guan Ying. Seeing that he looked solemn, she obviously discovered the extraordinary point.

"Che Ning, is Che Ning at home?"

Gao Laotuo shouted outside the yard and called Che Ning's name directly, without any intimacy.

As soon as the door opened, a man who was seven feet and five inches tall and honest, walked out. His hair was a little gray, his beard was like a steel needle. His eyes were full of evil spirits. His hands had protruding joints, like a palm fan.

The weather was quite cold, but the man was wearing only a small jacket with his arms exposed.

The arm was very strong and very thick. It was bronze in color, with muscles rising, blue veins exposed, and like iron lumps.

"Camel, why are you here?"

When the man saw Gao Laotuo, he shouted expressionlessly, and said as he walked: "I just slaughtered a dog and was about to send it to Yishuilou. By the way, you moved a few jars of wine from me before. Should you settle the account with me?"

It seemed as if Gao Laotuo really said, and the two were just nodding.

However, when the man saw Gao Laotuo for the first time, a warm feeling in his eyes unconsciously showed, as if he felt relieved.

That warmth is definitely not something that ordinary friendship can possess.

Gao Laotuo is lying!

Liu Kan became more and more sure of this fact.

He stood behind Gao Laotuo quietly. The man walked behind the wooden door, opened the door, and glanced at Liu Kan and Guan Ying.

"who are they?"

There was a hint of alertness in his tone.

Gao Laotuo said: "These two people are guests from other places. It seems that they have something to come to you... Oh, it's about your wine."
