"Then deploy at Changyuan Street tonight to capture and kill that monster!"

Master Zhang rolled up his sleeves and looked eager to try.

Chen Chao glanced at him. He couldn't understand how such a civil servant could be so enthusiastic about this kind of thing.

Although Master Zhang’s beard makes him look nothing like a Master, more like a bandit leader.

The old man nodded and agreed, "In order to get rid of this monster, I am willing to do my little bit."

Mi Ke asked, "What can you do?"

"..."

The county magistrate made trouble in public, making it impossible for Zuo to get off the stage.

Mi Ke didn't have the energy to care about Zuo Zuo's thoughts, but looked at Chen Chao and asked, "Brother Chen, are you sure?"

He was not afraid of returning without success today, but he was afraid that Chen Chao would not be able to deal with the monster hiding in the dark, and then all these people would die there.

"It's not a big problem."

Chen Chao expressed his thoughts, "At that time, just let the government officials guard both ends of the long street. If the monster escapes, it can also point out the direction. Lord Mi has been working hard for so long. There is no need to go to Changyuan tonight." On the other side of the street, I will wait for the news at the county government office."

While talking, Chen Chao kept looking at Mi Ke.

I've found the steps for you, and then it's up to you.

Mi Ke thought for a while and said with a righteous expression, "What Commissioner Chen said is wrong. As a local official, such a big thing happened in Tianqing County. How can I wait at the county government office with peace of mind?" information?"

"Okay, your words are really admirable, and you are worthy of being a role model for us!"

Lao Zuo is trying his best to repair his relationship with Mi Ke.

Master Zhang chuckled and kept murmuring in his heart, Sir, do you know that it is safer to follow Guard Chen?

Chen Chao smiled and nodded, then laughed and said, "I'm just superficial. With Master Mi's character, how can I be the kind of person who is greedy for life and afraid of death?"

While talking, Chen Chao kept looking at Mi Ke, the meaning in his eyes was very clear, please treat me to midnight snack next time!

Mi Ke nodded frequently, that was natural.

As for the government officials who were present and didn't know why, they just looked at Mi Ke with a little more admiration.

Our magistrate is such a good official!

"In that case, I'll go back and prepare first."

Chen Chao smiled slightly and looked at the sky, thinking that he could sleep all day long if he went back now.

Mi Ke hesitated to speak. He wanted to say that I can't bear to leave you, but in the end he gritted his teeth and said, "Guardian Chen, come here earlier!"

I'm scared when you're not around.

Chen Chao nodded and walked out of the county office with Xie Nandu, who didn't say a few words.

Looking at the girl's back, Mi Ke frowned again and muttered, "What the hell is this girl?"

The time has come? "

Master Zhang turned a deaf ear.

The old man was thinking about finding some medicine for the adults to cure his head.

Otherwise, why not just cut it open and see what the problem is?

Soon the old man shook his head again. It was easy to cut open. The problem was that it was difficult for him to recover after being cut open.

After the arrangements were made, Chen Chao left the county government office under the reluctant eyes of everyone in Mi Ke, stepped into the wind and snow again, and returned to his own courtyard.

But before entering the door, Chen Chao met the idle Zhou Gouqi again. The man looked at each other, sat down on their respective thresholds in a tacit understanding, and had a big quarrel. But this time, it was still Chen Chao who fell into the trap. Downwind, Chen Chao cursed secretly, and when he turned to open the door, he was still annoyed that he didn't perform well today.

After entering the yard, he sat down again in front of the pillar with severe paint peeling off, and rubbed his back against the pillar. Chen Chao seemed very satisfied.

"You like arguing with that guy so much?"

The girl's eyes were constantly looking at Chen Chao. The two of them had been together for more than a day or two. She still didn't see through the young man in black in front of her. What she cared about was not that this young man liked to quarrel, but... he was seriously doing something. This thing seems to be completely different from usual times.

But the girl then narrowed her eyes and figured out that this was a disguise, a usual show of weakness, just to inflict the most fatal harm on others at the most critical moment.

"Don't look at me like that, and don't think so much. There won't be that many interactions between you and me in the future." Chen Chao was a little careless.

"I think we will meet in the city of God in the future."

Xie Nandu smiled and said, "People like you will not stay in this small place all their lives."

Chen Chao smiled and said, "Then please take care of me. After all, we are friends."

Xie Nandu said, "Since we are friends, you still charge me money?"

"One code equals another code. Talking about relationships hurts money. Besides, you don't know my situation. My monthly salary is just that little, and there are no monsters to kill nearby. What can I do if I don't save some money... …”

Chen Chao looked in pain, and of course the pain he showed was more painful than his actual pain.

"Don't say so much, I won't pay more."

Although Xie Nandu didn't see through Chen Chao, he understood one thing very well, that is, the guy in front of him didn't speak many truths.

"Let's talk about something serious." Chen Chao changed the subject and took the initiative to talk about the murder that happened today.

As a guardian, that is his duty.

Xie Nandu looked at Chen Chao and said, "Since you already have thoughts in your mind,

Dharma, why bother asking me? "

"Then why did you say that in the county government?" Chen Chao sighed, "You have already told me what I am thinking. There is no guarantee that the monster will not hear it. When the time comes, there will be a vast Tianqing County. Where will I go?" Looking for it?"

Xie Nandu was silent for a moment and said, "Actually, it's not necessarily just demons."

She spoke very slowly, but her judgment at this moment was different from before. However, Chen Chao showed no unexpected expression, as if he had already thought of this.

Xie Nandu thought to himself and said, "There are some monks in the south who are a branch of Qi practitioners. They have slanted swords and have the ability to control monsters. It may not necessarily be the monsters they raise."

"If a passing monk lets his monsters come out to do evil, then he won't have anything to worry about."

Chen Chao looked a little unhappy. The monks of the Liang Dynasty always ignored the laws of imperial power and regarded human life as nothing. If they were really monks, they would be in big trouble.

Xie Nandu looked at Chen Chao and asked, "What would you do if it was really a monster raised by monks?"

This is a very direct question. In fact, it is also a question that the entire Daliang Dynasty has been facing for the past two hundred years. As for the answer, many officials of the Daliang Dynasty have answered it with practical actions for many years.

That is to turn one eye and close one eye.

Having angered those monks on the mountain top, could the Liang Dynasty bear their anger?

Let’s not talk about the Liang Dynasty, let’s talk about the current situation. If it is really a monster raised by monks, what can you, a small guardian envoy of the Chen Dynasty, do?

Chen Chao did not answer the question, but looked at Xie Nandu and asked, "Will you stay here tonight, or will you go to Changyuan Street with me?"

"No, I'm at home tonight."

Xie Nandu was uncharacteristic this time and did not choose to follow Chen Chao.

Chen Chao said seriously, "I need to remind you that this is my home, not yours."

Xie Nandu said a little aggrievedly, "Is this such a small thing worth saying so seriously?"

Chen Chao nodded and still said seriously, "I'm afraid you might have some thoughts about me. Of course, I'm a very nice person. If you can't help but like me, I don't think it's a problem. But the problem is , I'm afraid that after you have this idea, you will take it for granted that I saved you, and forget to pay me."

Xie Nandu asked thoughtfully, "If I really like you, wouldn't you get more?"

"Indeed, it's really hard to say no, but I'm going to say no anyway."

Chen Chao casually tore off another piece of patent leather from the wooden pillar and threw it away. He smiled and said, "The soft rice is delicious, but I don't like it."

…

…

The snow is lighter today, but it's still very cold.

week

Wolfberry sat on his threshold, wearing a thick cotton robe, rubbing his hands, but in a good mood.

The reason why I'm in a good mood is not because I won the quarrel with the boy named Chen before. After all, I always win, I'm used to it.

It's because my fat woman went back to her parents' house today, and my father-in-law celebrates his eightieth birthday today.

The fat woman beat him for a while before going out and wanted him to go back with her, but she was still rejected by Zhou Gouqi. He had not been doing well in recent years, and many of his relatives on the father-in-law's side laughed at him. If it were someone else, I don’t want to suffer the glare again on this day.

But he is just lazy.

Too lazy to walk from this street to that street.

trouble.

Zhou Gouqi, who was enjoying his free time alone, suddenly heard a creak and looked up. The door opened again, and a young man in black came out.

Who else could it be if it wasn't the boy named Chen?

Zhou Wolfberry squinted his eyes and became energetic.

After all, they were all old acquaintances. Chen Chao knew what the old boy was thinking as soon as he laid eyes on him. He waved his hand impatiently, "We have business to do, no time to argue."

Zhou Gouqi clicked his tongue and said, "Are you going to Changyuan Street?"

"Yes, a monster has entered the city. Be careful when you sleep at night."

"Hey, do you still care about me? Do you think that if I die, no one will quarrel with you?"

"No, I'm short of money recently."

Zhou Wolfberry tugged at the corner of his mouth, his expression a little unsightly.

This guy really curses people without using any bad words.

"Do you really think that monster will still appear on Changyuan Street?"

Hearing these words, Chen Chao suddenly stopped and turned to look at this unattractive man.

Could it be...

"What do you think?" Chen Chao looked at Zhou Gouqi, and a strange idea gradually came to his mind.

Zhou Gouqi laughed loudly, "You kid is not smart. After committing two murders on Changyuan Street, will the monster continue to stay there tonight?"

"This is just like me hiding my personal money. Who would put their personal money in one place?"

The man looked wise and quite proud.

"Gone?"

Chen Chao twitched the corner of his mouth, his face full of regret at the moment.

What on earth was I expecting?

"Why, you still don't understand?" The man looked disgusted, and his expression suggested that a boy cannot be taught or a rotten tree cannot be carved.

Chen Chao raised his middle finger towards the man expressionlessly, and walked away without waiting for the man to react.
