"Brother Yuan is here?"
Tie Qinghua sat on her knees on the ground, staring at the coffin in front of her, her voice was very soft.
"coming..."
Chen Yuan glanced at Tie Qinghua's mourning clothes, and a word suddenly flashed in his mind.
Temptation...
However, he quickly abandoned these strange thoughts and, like a magic trick, took out a white flower from his back and placed it in front of Tie Xuan's coffin.
Tie Qinghua glanced at Chen Yuan, with a puzzled look in her eyes.
"This is a etiquette that arose in my hometown, the iron lady mourns."
Chen Yuan showed a little sadness at the right time.
Tie Qinghua took a deep breath and slowly lowered her head:
"When my eldest brother was alive, I didn't think anything was wrong, but now that my eldest brother is dead, all kinds of monsters and monsters have appeared."
"I believe that the Iron Lady can survive these disasters safely."
"I don't believe it myself," Tie Qinghua said mockingly.
In just a few days, she lost her husband and brother. These two men who were most important to her, if they were ordinary people, they would be haggard and at a loss.
But she can't. In addition to herself, she also has her brother's children, wife and daughter to support. If she doesn't cheer up, the Tie family will really have no hope.
Tie Xuan did have some close friends and subordinates who were called brothers during his lifetime, but death is like a lamp going out. When Tie Xuan died, those so-called friends were the first to rush forward.
"Brother Yuan, the Tie family still has some money, you can take it. As for the Tiger Bone Pill, I don't know if I can hold on until then..." Tie Qinghua said softly.
Chen Yuan squinted his eyes, watching Tie Qinghua's performance, and then said:
"Silver is of no use to me. What I want is Tiger Bone Pill. As for the Tie family, I will do my best to help."
Tie Qinghua raised her head and stared at Chen Yuan for a while:
"Thank you, Brother Yuan, for your help."
"Don't thank me in a hurry. You and I are just mutually beneficial. In addition to the tiger bone pills before, I still need more as payment."
"Unexpectedly, when the Tie family encountered a catastrophe, the one who really helped Qinghua was Brother Yuan, a friend who had only known each other for a few days. I believe that the eldest brother can rest in peace down there."
Tie Qinghua continued.
"Yes, brother Tie can rest in peace..." Chen Yuan's eyes gradually brought an imperceptible smile.
"Does Mrs. Tie know how your brother died?" Chen Yuan asked softly.
"The news from the county government is that my brother died in the hands of Wu Sheng Cult thieves." A hint of hatred flashed in Tie Qinghua's eyes.
Tie Xuan raised her as both an elder brother and a father, and this hatred will never be forgotten throughout her life.
"The Wu Sheng Cult is a very powerful demonic force. I'm afraid Madam Tie's revenge will not be avenged for a while." Chen Yuan shook his head.
"Ten years are not too late for such a great hatred. Even if I cannot avenge it, the descendants of the Tie family will pass on this hatred endlessly!"
Tie Qinghua said through gritted teeth.
"That's it..." Chen Yuan's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, and then disappeared again, turning into a smile:
"I believe that Mrs. Iron will be able to get her revenge one day."
"It's getting late, Mrs. Tie, please continue to keep vigil. Yuan has resigned first. If there is any force that embarrasses the Tie family and leaves some marks on the stone lion in front of the door, Yuan will come if he sees it..."
Chen Yuan walked to the door of the mourning hall and said with his back to Tie Qinghua.
"Brother Yuan, let's go..."
Although he felt that this sentence was a bit awkward, Chen Yuan did not show it, nodded slightly and disappeared into the darkness.
After Chen Yuan left, Tie Qinghua suddenly thought of what her brother had told her before. Yuan Chen told them about the Huang family so easily, and he was probably asking for a lot, so she must be vigilant.
For now...
After a long silence, Tie Qinghua put his head on the ground, constantly thinking about Tie Xuan's appearance during his lifetime.
Two tears fell from the corners of his eyes.
...
...
The next day.
The east campus of the city.
Starting from early morning, government officials began to arrive one after another, all wanting to meet the new head catcher who won the competition this time.
Although he does not have an official status for the time being, he does have rights. Moreover, as soon as he reaches the level of bone refining, County Lieutenant Li Mingqi will notify the city to decentralize documents.
Not much different from a real head catcher.
Moreover, what is really interesting is that this time it is not a strong bone-refining expert who serves as the head catcher, but the county lieutenant Li Mingqi who decides to select masters from among the six offices of the yamen to serve as the head catcher.
These masters are at the blood refining level at best.
Although it is not the first time in the world, it is extremely rare.
This kind of thing has not happened in Ping'an County for at least several decades. Usually, the people who serve as arresters are masters of bone refining, so that they can suppress a group of unruly and long-standing government officials.
There was an internal competition within the county government. County Lieutenant Li Mingqi ordered that outsiders were not allowed to enter. After all, this was not a competition or a glorious thing. In such a large Ping An County, there was no suitable person to be the head catcher. Speaking of which, it was... His mistake.
If he had a choice, Li Mingqi would not choose this.
The main reason is that the other two bone refining masters within the county government have all turned to the county magistrate Wu Qingfeng. If the people who turned to Wu Qingfeng were used, wouldn't he be sidelined?
This is something Li Mingqi absolutely cannot tolerate.
And he couldn't show weakness and ask for people from Fucheng, otherwise, how would the superior view him?
If the superior officer cannot be allowed to think he has means, how will he be promoted in the future?
Therefore, Li Mingqi could only be forced to choose a taller one among the short ones, and select the strongest one from those blood-refining level government officials. In this way, as long as he devoted himself to him and his training, promotion to bone-refining was not a matter of course. What a difficult thing.
Walking on the road east of the city, Chen Yuan and Wang Ping were chatting.
"Brother Yuan, how are you preparing?"
Chen Yuan lowered his head and glanced at the breast shield hidden on his chest, and said with a smile:
"Do not worry."
"Brother Yuan, just have confidence. I believe in you, brother." Wang Ping patted his chest.
"How were you at Yanyu Tower last night? Did you see the oiran?" Chen Yuan asked with a smile.
When he mentioned this, Wang Ping drooped his eyelids and said in a muffled voice:
"seen."
"Why, are you not satisfied, or is the rumor wrong?"
"No...no, that woman is very nice."
"Then why are you like this?"
"Brother Yuan, do you believe in love at first sight?"
Chen Yuan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile:
"You wouldn't fall in love with a brothel girl, would you?"
We're out to play, and whoever gets emotional loses.
Wang Ping immediately argued:
"I had a lot of contact with Xiaoyue last night. She is very virtuous, gentle, and... beautiful. Although she is a brothel girl, she is also a good woman."
Chen Yuan's forehead turned black. Doesn't this mean that she is still a good girl despite her dancing, drinking, getting tattoos, and staying out all night?
