Wang Lidong, who was looking at the account book, suddenly became dissatisfied and said:
"She's almost eleven years old, and she still acts like a wild girl all day long. What's going on, so anxious?"
Lan Lan replied with a smile:
"Senior brother, you forgot, today is the end of the month gathering."
How could Wang Lidong remember this specifically?
The end-of-month gathering is a tradition in Linhai County.
On the last day of every month, nearby small businesses and vendors gather in the county town.
So every day,
The entire county will be crowded with people and extremely lively.
"Are you looking for Qingqiu Qingqian to go with you?"
The little girl's mind was racing rapidly.
"Hmm, senior brother, are you going?"
Seeing the expectant look in the little girl's eyes, Wang Lidong thought that he hadn't visited the county town for a long time:
"Have lunch and let's go shopping together."
afternoon
Seeing a group of little girls chatting animatedly, Wang Lidong suddenly felt that he had been tricked by his junior sister.
I thought it was just the four of them, but I didn’t know that Lan Lan also made an appointment with a few other friends.
Let’s go shopping together.
But he was already out, and he was too embarrassed to go back in the middle of the trip. He was his own student, so he couldn't bear it.
"Senior brother, candied haws."
Lan Lan looked at a vendor selling candied haws.
"Brother, eight bunches of candied haws."
"Mr. Lin, please take the eight bunches of candied haws."
"How much?"
"I don't have much money, how can I ask for your money?"
Wang Lidong didn't ask any more questions, gave him a penny, turned around and left.
The vendor hurriedly took a few more bunches of candied haws, stuffed them into his hand, and thanked him profusely.
When the vendor selling candied haws on sugar-coated haws returned to the stall, the guy from the next stall said hotly:
"Daniu, please give me a drink tonight."
"Why should I invite you?"
"The money the county magistrate gave you,
At least I can buy all the candied haws on your stall."
"That's because the county magistrate knows that the candied haws a stick made by Wang Laoshi is delicious.
Specially rewarded to me."
Seeing the girls eating happily, Wang Lidong also ate a candied haws.
sour and sweet,
The taste is pretty good, but the sugar used is not very pure and has a slightly bitter taste.
"Windmill, senior brother, what a beautiful windmill."
"purchase."
Today it is a mobile wallet.
"Senior brother, it's that weirdo."
Then he saw that where Lan Lan was pointing was a candy-making stall.
There was a group of children standing in front of the stall, but an old man carrying a guqin on his back was among them.
Wang Lidong felt a little strange that these two people had been here for several days and why they hadn't left yet.
"Senior brother, do I also want a candy man?"
"purchase."

Haokelai Inn
"I've met Third Senior Uncle, I've met Senior Uncle Zhang."
The eldest disciple of Deng Bagong, Quan Quan, bowed to the Crane Hands Lu Bai and Zhang Jingchao with great respect.
Crane hand Lu Bai waved his hand:
"We're all our own people, just feel free to do it."
The farmer with his head lowered muttered in his heart: It sounds nice to say it, but if you really want to be too casual, you will definitely not be able to eat and walk around in the future.
In the past, I was still protected by my master, but now...sigh~, the days to come will be difficult.
"When the master was still here, he often told us about the third uncle. He said that when he first joined the Songshan sect,
Thanks to Third Master Uncle for taking care of us and allowing us to see you..."
As he spoke, the farmer's eyes became red.
Crane Hand Lu Bai recalled the scene of his brothers practicing martial arts together when he was young, and couldn't help but feel a little sad.
"Tell me, what news have you found out these days?"
Quan Nong was busy informing the two of them one by one of the recently collected information.
After listening to the content, Lu Bai sneered:
"Senior Brother Head, your guess is indeed correct, there is something fishy about Junior Brother Deng's death.
None of the Wu family members died, but Junior Brother Deng did.
Do the Wu family know martial arts?"
Quan Quan shook his head and said:
"My disciples have inquired and found out that this family is a wealthy family. They are all scholars and no one practices martial arts."
"Then this family is now locked up in the county jail?"
"yes."
Crane Hand Lu Bai glanced at Zhang Jingchao, and then said:
"Junior brother, do you have any suggestions?"
Zhang Jingchao cupped his hands and said:
"Little brother, listen to your senior brother."
Crane Hand Lu Bai nodded with satisfaction:
"We will go to the county jail tonight and find the Wu family. This matter will be clear."
Neither of them had any objections to this. It was just a county prison.
If you break in, you break in.
However, Quan Quan still reminded in a low voice:
"Uncle, I heard that Tian Boguang was caught by the Linhai County Magistrate himself."
"Tian Boguang, it's his Qinggong that has come to the fore."

Linhai County Government
Hai hour (22 o'clock)
Wang Lidong, who was sleeping soundly, twitched his ears.
md, what bastard came to the county office in the middle of the night to hang out.
Angry, Wang Lidong put on his coat, took his sword, and left the room.
When they arrived on the roof of the prison's main building, they saw three sneaky guys knocking down the officer on duty at the door of the cell.
About to break into jail.
"You three are so courageous that you dare to come to this county to rob a prison."
"who?"
Quan Quan asked.
After Lu Bai and Zhang Jingchao looked at each other, Zhang Jingchao said:
"Which brother is it? We are..."
However, Lu Bai, the Crane Hand, quietly moved towards Wang Lidong.
It seems that the three of them have a clear division of labor and are quite skilled.
This time Wang Lidong didn't even bother to draw his sword.
In a flash, he was next to the two of them.
With two "pops", Zhang Jingchao and Quan Quan fell to the ground.
Lu Bai's expression changed greatly. Zhang Jingchao's martial arts was not much weaker than his, but he lay down as soon as he met him. When it was his turn, the result was similar.
Immediately use Qinggong and rush out of the wall.
Wang Lidong waved his hand, and in mid-air, Lu Bai felt his body fly backwards involuntarily.
He was so frightened that he couldn't help shouting "Ahhhhh".
"Noisy,"
With one slap, the guy immediately became quiet.
Such a loud noise had long since awakened the officer on duty in the prison.
Wang Lidong first looked at the two government officials who were knocked down by the three men, and found that their acupuncture points were only tapped.
"Young escort chief, Chen Er and the others?"
"It's okay, I'll wake up immediately if I tap the sleeping point."
He pointed at the three people on the ground and said:
"Daya, give me a report tomorrow."
Seeing that his men were fine and that they had three more materials, Jin Daya said happily:
"It's an order."
Chou hour (one o'clock in the morning)
Wang Lidong stood up immediately, anger igniting in his chest.
He really thought his county government office was a public toilet.
It's endless.
When I came to the roof of the cell, I found the two night guards at the gate lying on the ground again.
It's still the same as before, acupuncture points were tapped.
"You two are very brave, and you dare to come to the county government to rob the prison!"
The old man in black was a little dizzy.
Because the sound came from right next to them, but they didn't even notice it.
Turning around, he saw a person standing less than three feet away from him.
He knew this man, he was the magistrate of Linhai County.
After calming down, the old man cupped his hands and said:
"You can't see Mount Tai. I didn't expect that the county magistrate turned out to be a hidden master. I'm disrespectful."
Wang Lidong ignored the old man and said to the green little girl beside him:
"You are such a little kid, don't you know that you will be beheaded if you try to escape from prison?"
The green girl rolled her eyes and said with a smile:
"Brother, grandpa and I are lost. We are looking for a good guest to come to the inn.
I didn’t expect to end up in the county government office.”
Wang Lidong chuckled and said:
"At such a young age, you can tell lies with open eyes. It seems that your grandpa is definitely not a good person."
