Lord of Earth Fiend

Chapter 46
(It's another new week, life and death, the Taishang reads urgently like a law, sickness!)
The protruding-eyed tiger showed a sinister smile, and thought that as long as he took Chen Jin as a hostage, he would be able to escape if he dared not push him too far.

Most of his attention was on the pursuers behind him, and he didn't care about Chen Jin.

A white-faced scholar, a scholar who has no strength to restrain a chicken, can handle it casually.

Suddenly, his ribs hurt, and he stared at Chen Jin in disbelief: "You, you?"

Chen Jin didn't have a sword in his hand, nor did he bring a bamboo stick.But since a bamboo stick can be used as a sword, so can fingers.

With one finger as a sword, he used his index finger to stab the unsuspecting protruding tiger's ribs, injuring it severely.The one-legged thief soon fell to the ground like a curly shrimp, foaming at the mouth.

The chasing soldiers flew over and cheered: "What a handsome skill!"

This person is tall and straight, with a majestic appearance, a pair of red phoenix eyes are shining, especially the O-shaped whiskers that are very neatly groomed, full of a mature and stern aura:

"A certain is Ma Shengshen, the arresting officer of Huazhou Prefecture. Didn't ask for advice?"

Chen Jin replied: "Chen Jin is a scholar."

"student?"

Ma Shengshen was quite suspicious. Chen Jin did look like a scholar, but the finger sword he just struck was really fierce, and it must have been hard work for many years.

Chen Jin explained: "My uncle is the governor of Gaozhou Prefecture, Qiu Bugui. I learned some martial arts from him."

Qiu Bugui's name is useful, anyway, I have learned from Qiu Baoer, and Qiu Baoer worships Qiu Bugui as a teacher, the logical relationship is smooth, and he is not afraid of being exposed.

Ma Shengshen really knew Qiu Bugui, nodded and said, "So he is Captain Qiu's nephew, no wonder he is so amazing."

Chen Jin said with a smile: "The main reason is that this guy was busy running for his life, and only cared about guarding against the pursuit of the horse, so he was successfully attacked by me."

Ma Shengshen clasped his fists and said, "No matter what, I owe you a favor."

With the sound of thumping, several officials arrived, stepped forward to help, took the protruding tiger down, and put the iron lock on it.

Chen Jin wanted to get acquainted with him: "Hurry up, it's better to meet by chance than to invite you. If you don't mind, may I buy you a drink?"

Ma Shengshen was startled, and shook his head: "Sorry, I have official business, so I can't drink."

Chen Jin didn't give up: "I see there's a big bone noodle stall outside, why don't we go there and sit down?"

Ma Shengshen thought for a while: "Okay, we just didn't have dinner."

A group of people escorted the protruding tiger out, came to the noodle stall and sat down.

Seeing so many officials coming, the boss had a very respectful attitude and hurried to say hello.

Ma Shengshen was serious, but he didn't put on airs. He was also hungry, so he ate a big bowl of noodles before talking to Chen Jin.

Fortunately, Chen Jin is good at communicating with the tongue, and after some clichés, he got a good idea of ​​what happened.

The protruding-eyed tiger ransacked a Zhuangzi in Huazhou Prefecture and killed seven people.He fled all the way into the Gaozhou mansion and hid.Ma Shengshen led his men to hunt down and search for several days, and finally found the trace of the protruding tiger tonight.However, this fellow was cunning and vigilant by nature, and immediately realized that something was wrong, so he escaped immediately, but unexpectedly fell into Chen Jin's hands.It can also be regarded as the recovery of Skynet, sparse but not missing.

Different from those cunning and slippery yamen officials, Ma Shengshen has an upright personality, and he took this name because he was born in Shen Shi.The martial arts handed down in his family used a set of sword techniques, which in his own words were "ordinary".

However, after close contact, Chen Jin had already noticed that the energy and blood on his body was no less than that of his uncle.

At the very least, it is full of energy, and it may even be washed out.

Chen Jin didn't dare to look at him casually, because if his eyes were burned, it would be self-defeating.

It is really surprising that such a person is only a catcher.Maybe it's because of my temperament, I'm too upright and principled, I don't know how to flatter and climb up.

In officialdom, what is martial arts?The only way to get promoted and make a fortune is to communicate with people and have a backer.

Chen Jin said aggrievedly: "Brother Ma, you have the ability to be a policeman, and I feel wronged."

Ma Shengshen said sternly: "It's a matter of being loyal to the emperor, I, Ma Shengshen, work for the court, eliminate harm for the people, be generous and selfless, no matter what I do."

Chen Jin: "..."

He really is a dead-brained martial artist, but he has the pedantic air of a bookworm.

I can't help but think of some of the behavior of my predecessor, which is quite similar to Ma Shengshen to a certain extent.

After eating the noodles, Ma Sheng resigned and left, and wanted to go back to Huazhou Mansion for interrogation tomorrow morning with the protruding tiger.Their trip this time is part of a cross-border arrest.Of course, there are official paperwork.

Accidentally helping to catch the robber, Chen Jin had a small pride of "chivalrous and righteous", so he asked the boss to add two marinated eggs and a catty of pork head meat.

Just now I was only concerned with clichés and didn't have enough to eat, so I have to make up for it now, otherwise I will starve tonight.

Since entering Jin, my dietary needs have increased quite a bit. When I practice at night, I often feel hungry.

At that time, it would be inconvenient to come out to look for food.

This is different from when I was at my grandfather's house, someone was waiting for me, and I could just order what I wanted to eat.

Chen Jin felt that it was necessary to prepare food in the rental house, but there were very few options for food, let alone treasures such as refrigerators and freezers.

Every time he thought of this question, he began to miss the past.

……

"Conservation? Have you returned to the city?"

Seeing Chen Jin who came to the door, Wang Huaiyi was pleasantly surprised.He was the one who went to look for Chen Jin before, but it was rare for Chen Jin to come to the door on his own initiative.

Chen Jin said: "I want to go out of the city to visit Su Xiancheng, do you want to come together?"

"Oh, okay, wait a minute."

Wang Huaiyi agreed, but he wasn't really interested.In the past, he had a good relationship with Su Xian, but later he was admitted as a scholar, but Su Xiancheng failed the exam repeatedly, and gradually widened the gap.

Su Xiancheng was born in poverty, lost his father when he was young, and lived outside the city, the gap widened even further.

The last time I went to see him was mainly to find news about Su Jin, this time there was nothing to do, it was purely a social visit between friends.

But since Chen Jin called, Wang Huaiyi would not refuse, he wore an extra robe, so he carried the books and other things on his back and went out with Chen Jin.

"Shou Heng, have you heard the news? The thief who escaped was arrested last night. Hey, I can finally sleep peacefully. These days, I dare not go out very much for fear of being bumped into."

Chen Jin said with a smile: "The city is so big, how could it be easy to bump into it?"

Wang Huaiyi said very seriously: "It's impossible to say, if people are unlucky, they will choke on cold water."

He has always been a superstitious person, otherwise he would not have been haunted by wild gods last time.

The speaker had no intention, but the listener had intentions. Chen Jin suddenly felt that Wang Huaiyi was right, didn't he bump into him head-on?

It's just that the result was very different, and the unlucky person was replaced.

The two of them left the city, crossed the fields, and came to the village where Su Xiancheng lived. Just outside the house with earthen walls and tiles, they heard a burst of weeping.

Upon hearing this, Wang Huaiyi said, "It seems that the mother is crying, so what happened?"

Chen Jin said in a deep voice, "Go in and have a look."
