Chapter 196 Investigate the news
Wu Gui's home is in the east of the city. It is a courtyard with two entrances. The courtyard is not big, which suits his status as a ruffian.

"The courtyard in front of you two is Wu Gui's residence, so I won't go there, lest I ask for trouble."

Chen Xiaofan cupped his hands again to express his thanks, and then he and Leng Shuang'er walked out of the gate of the courtyard.Chen Xiaofan stepped forward and saw that it was locked tightly, he knocked heavily a few times, and there was an angry scolding from inside the door: "That damn thing~ why knock!"

Chen Xiaofan replied loudly: "It's the one who beat Wu Gui just now! If I don't open the door, I'll just smash the door down! Let you see how I, the one who wants to die, is so desperate!"

Leng Shuang'er smiled slightly: "Xiaofan, you are really mean!"

Chen Xiaofan's yelling in the inner courtyard immediately became silent, a series of hurried footsteps came from behind the door, and the closed courtyard door was opened very hastily, Wu Gui had a respectful smile on his face. He came out with the help of one of his men.

"I don't know it's the young hero and the female hero who came here. Just now, the blind guy was ignorant and barked a lot. Please don't be offended by the young hero!"

"Wu Gui, you said that the person who spoke just now was barking like a dog?" Chen Xiaofan asked.

"Yes, I will definitely teach him a good lesson for that dog."

Chen Xiaofan's tone turned cold: "Okay Wu Gui, I was talking to that person just now, you said that person is a dog, doesn't that mean that I am also a dog!"

Wu Gui is also someone who can afford to let it go, knowing that Chen Xiaofan and Leng Shuang'er are powerful, he didn't care about face, he slapped himself twice and said: "Young hero, don't blame me, my stinky mouth is not good. can talk!"

Chen Xiaofan nodded in satisfaction and said: "Okay, Wu Gui, I came to you because I need your help with something. I will give you as much silver taels as the rules when it's over, and I won't let you suffer!"

"The young hero is being polite, please come inside, let's talk inside."

Chen Xiaofan and the others followed Wu Gui to the hall of the house and sat down. After the servants served tea, Wu Gui said, "Young Xia, I don't know what you just said? As long as I can do it, you can do whatever you want, Young Xia." If you talk about remuneration, you will look down on Wu Gui too much! It is Wu Gui's blessing to know people like you, Shaoxia!"

Chen Xiaofan's ability to talk about horse racing is even worse than Wu Gui's, and he also knew that blindly applying pressure is not a good way, so he said with a smile: "Brother Wu Gui, we can't fight today. Now that we've met, I, Chen Xiaofan, will make you my friend."

As soon as Wu Gui heard Chen Xiaofan's self-reported name, he felt that the name sounded familiar, and after thinking about it carefully for a while, he asked, "Are you the Chen Xiaofan who once fought with Mr. Ouyang for his wife?"

Chen Xiaofan showed a helpless smile, he didn't expect that he still has such a reputation.

Leng Shuang'er smiled angrily and said, "I didn't expect Xiaofan to have such a great reputation!"

Chen Xiaofan quickly explained: "Shuang'er, I fought because of Miss Ziwan that day." Leng Shuang'er smiled awkwardly when she heard that.

Wu Gui stood up and said, "It turned out to be Chen Shaoxia, so I'm not wronged if I lost today. What does Chen Shaoxia want me to do today?"

"Actually, the matter is not too difficult. I just want my brothers to help me find out who the officials in the city have come to the capital recently?"

"The senior officials haven't heard of it. Oh, yes, just yesterday, Brother Xia from the south of the city sent a message asking me to restrain myself in the past few days. It seems that some officials have come from the capital."

"Do you know what officials are here in the capital?" Chen Xiaofan continued to ask.

"I don't know who Chen Shaoxia is here, but during this period of time, the Nan'an City riots have turned the entire Yangquan Prefecture into chaos, and the seat of the governor is still vacant. It is normal for a few people from the capital to come. It's something." Wu Gui said while talking about a dog leg next to him who seemed to think of something, and suddenly leaned into Wu Gui's ear and whispered a few words, Wu Gui's expression changed suddenly.

After hesitating for a while, Wu Gui decided to ask the next question: "What is the relationship between Chen Shaoxia and everyone in Nan'an City?"

"My father-in-law is Zi Shang." Chen Xiaofan replied flatly.

"Chen Shaoxia, I have also heard about President Zishang, and I am very indignant about the government's actions, but at this time, the beast hunters in Nan'an City have been listed as rebels, so it is possible that you want to assassinate the high officials in the capital I don't have the guts to do this!" Wu Gui spoke quickly, and his fast speech fully expressed his uneasiness.

Chen Xiaofan smiled slightly and said: "Brother Wu Gui, I will not do what you are worried about. This is a guarantee from me! But today, I ask you to do it for me."

"Chen Shaoxia! I can help you with other things, but I really can't handle this matter! If this matter fails, it will kill me!"

Leng Shuang'er suddenly swayed, came to Wu Gui with the Arc Moon Knife out of its sheath and put it around his neck, she said coldly: "If we don't say that no one knows that you help us, then you may not have to die! But if you don't help us with this matter now, I can tell you that you are dead!"

Wu Gui knew that Leng Shuang'er was much stronger than him, so he gave up the resistance and remained silent while trembling all over.Leng Shuang'er didn't urge Wu Gui's silence, she waited quietly.

After a while, before Wu Gui opened his mouth, Chen Xiaofan said: "Shuang'er, it seems that Brother Wu Gui is not willing to help us with this favor, so let's send Brother Wu Gui on the road as soon as possible."

Wu Gui almost peed out of fear when he heard this, he trembled and repeatedly begged for mercy: "Please forgive me! Chen Shaoxia, I will do it! I can't do it!"

Leng Shuang'er put away the Moon Arc Knife, patted Wu Gui's chest and said, "That's right!"

Wu Gui yelled at the dog legs beside him: "What are you doing in a daze! Why don't you hurry up and ask the brothers to investigate, what kind of high-ranking official from the capital is here!"

The dog leg standing next to Wu Gui was also terribly frightened just now, and at this moment Wu Gui yelled and quickly agreed: "I'll do it right away, Brother Wu, don't worry! I will definitely finish it soon!"

"Hurry up! Be careful if you're late, grandpa, I'll die!" Hearing this, the dog leg rolled out of the hall quickly and ran towards the door.

Looking at the dog's back, Wu Gui said with a smile that was uglier than crying: "Chen Shaoxia, don't worry, I have many brothers, and there will be news soon. You don't have to worry about this heroine, you'd better go back and sit down and drink tea." Bar."

Leng Shuang'er gave Wu Gui a cold look and said, "Don't play tricks on me, I'll kill you like pinching an ant!" Then she turned and returned to the chair just now.
