After all the sacrifices have been made to speed pass, who is still practicing hard skills?

Chapter 22 Return to Yanggu County!
  "When Gou Buyi was executed before, I gave him a special order to give him a happy meal. Didn't I already thank him in advance?" The two sides were already at odds, and he had no interest in making excuses with the other party here.

Gou Buren was not angry because of Jiang Che's words, he just said calmly:
  "Young man, don't be too presumptuous, it won't do any good."

"Young people, just have fun."

Gou Buren stared at him, smiled, turned and left.

Looking at Gou Buren's retreating figure, the smile on Jiang Che's face gradually faded, and there was a hint of solemnity in his eyes.

He is inherently suspicious, and Gou Buren's arrival this time was just too lucky. If it had been earlier, there would have been no casualties at all, but if it had been later, the Zhu family would have definitely ended up dead.

Coupled with his explanation just now, it was really difficult not to make him suspicious.

Unfortunately, he didn't have any evidence.

Under Jiang Che's arrangement, all the soldiers and the Zhu Family Guards were buried on the spot, and then repaired some. Everyone continued to walk slowly, but compared to before.

This time the guard force is even stronger.

"Commander Jiang, thank you very much this time."

Mrs. Zhu expressed her gratitude to Jiang Che in person. Obviously, Zhu Qingqing had also mentioned to her that Jiang Che had rescued Zhu Qingqing.

Jiang Che refused and did not dare to speak appropriately.

And she said that after returning, she would tell Zhu Sheng what happened today and let him thank him. This was the purpose of Jiang Che's risk of taking Song Ji's attack just now.

After experiencing a robbery, the entire convoy became more cautious, and most of the defense tasks were handed over to Gou Buren, who did not say anything to Jiang Che except the first few words.

It was peaceful along the way, but Jiang Che was thinking about the ambush at Crouching Tiger Mountain. He always felt that there was a big problem in it.

As the commander-in-chief of Fengzi Camp, and had just been promoted to the rank of county captain, Zhu Sheng had a good reputation in several surrounding counties, but Crouching Mountain refused to give him any face, and made it clear that he would be robbed and killed.

Aren't you afraid that Zhu Sheng will suppress bandits after he takes office?
  Even if you are not afraid, why bother?

and also
  This time Jiang Che escorted Zhu Sheng's family to Yanggu County. He kept a tight watch on them during the journey. Except for the Tan Ma who dispersed, no one would escape his sight.

But why did the other party set up an ambush at such a perfect place and time?

To know the news that the Zhu family was moving, he was the one who told Mrs. Zhu.

This naturally caused him to think deeply.

Jiang Che was both familiar and unfamiliar with Yanggu County. The strange thing was that he had never been to Yanggu County since he was in the auxiliary barracks since his time travel.

But the memory of accepting the original body is so familiar.

When I saw the big word 'Yanggu' on the city gate, those memories flooded into my mind again.

Jiang Che was born and raised in Yanggu. His ancestors were even considered a wealthy family in Yanggu County, and their family was extremely wealthy. However, it was a pity that his parents failed to live up to their expectations and lost all their wealth.

In the end, all that was left to him were a few shabby houses and a fishing boat.

When he was serving in the military for no apparent reason, he tried to find some connections, but it was of no use at all. He was even placed under strict supervision, and he only had a dozen taels of silver left in his hand, which he spent on Gou Buyi.

If he hadn't been reborn here, you can imagine how difficult the fate of the original body would have been.

Caobang
  This Yanggu County tyrant was the culprit that brought him to this point.

But even now, he still doesn't understand who the person who wants him to die is.

Zhu Sheng bought a house in Yanggu County in advance. It was located in the east of the city, close to the county government office, and had three entrances and three exits. Since the news of Zhu Sheng's transfer had spread, no one dared to look for it. In this way, two days later, Zhu Sheng finally officially took office and entered Yanggu County with dozens of followers. On that day, Jiang Che, Mrs. Zhu and others were waiting at the city gate to greet him.

In addition, the Yanggu County magistrate, county magistrate, and county dignitaries all gave Zhu Sheng great courtesy in public. This was also the first time Jiang Che saw the upper class of Yanggu County. .

"This time, thanks to your early vigilance and risking your life to protect him, tell me what reward you want." Not long after returning to Zhu's house, Jiang Che was summoned to the study by Zhu Sheng.

It can be seen that Zhu Sheng's face is very ugly, which is completely different from the cheerful look on his face when he met with the dignitaries of Yanggu County at noon.

Of course, this is also human nature.

If Jiang Che's family members were intercepted and almost died, I'm afraid he would be even more angry.

There were many small calculations in his heart, but Jiang Che showed that he was not moved by external things and said directly:
  "My lord has entrusted such an important task to my subordinates. This is my duty."

"Don't be so open-minded in front of me. You have been promoted too quickly. Without qualifications and merits, the position of commander is impossible now. However, it is okay to reward you with some free money. You are not allowed to refuse."

After an interception, Zhu Sheng and Jiang Che became much closer, and they seemed to value him very much.

Jiang Che thought about it for a moment and whispered: "I have an elder who treated me very well when I was young, but his health is low. I asked the doctor and he said that I need some deer blood grass and strong bone flower, but my subordinate is short of money."

Whether there are dates or not, let’s talk about how many shots we make first.

During the two days he came to Yanggu County, he was not really idle. He almost went to several drug stores in the county to inquire about deer blood grass and strong bone flower. The answer he got was that deer blood grass was extremely precious and the market price was very low. Ten taels of silver per plant.

As a precious medicine for spiritual practice, the bone-strengthening flower has a price but no market.

Often, as soon as they appear, they will be taken away at a high price. It is not easy for him to get them.

"Deer blood grass. Bone-strengthening flower." Zhu Sheng looked at Jiang Che with a meaningful smile. Deer blood grass is indeed a top-quality blood supplement, but bone-strengthening flower is different. This is something that only warriors can use.

However, he didn't say anything, he just said:
  "You are considerate. Go to the warehouse to get it tomorrow."

These things are valuable, but it depends on who they are for, at least they are nothing to him.

"Thank you, sir."

Jiang Che was overjoyed. It was not in vain to escort him all the way. The most difficult thing was solved directly.

"What do you think of that interception?"

After Zhu Sheng gave the reward, he got back to business.

Jiang Che raised his head and said in a concentrated voice:
  "My subordinates believe that this is a warning given to us by those in Yanggu County." Then he told some of his guesses on the road.

It's just that I didn't blame Gou Buren. As a deputy commander, I must be cautious when speaking without evidence.

Last time I was able to kill Gou Buyi, but this time I can't use the same method to kill Gou Buren.

Zhu Sheng tapped his fingers on the table, looking a little gloomy under the candlelight. After a long time, he spoke:
  "Then how do you think I should respond?"

"If you don't break it, you can't establish it. If you want to get what belongs to you, you have to take food from their mouths. It's better to use this interception to start an attack and light the first fire."

Without chaos, how can he profit from chaos?
  "You come with me to the banquet tonight."

Zhu Sheng neither objected nor agreed, but changed the topic.

"Yes!"
