However, Xiao Liu noticed that there was one difference between Mr. Zhu and Lao Bai, that is, Lao Bai turned faster and faster, while Mr. Zhu turned slower and slower.
This subtle discovery couldn't help but ignite a glimmer of hope in Xiao Liu.
After a long time, Mr. Zhu finished reading the whole book. Xiaoliu looked at him expectantly, but he closed the book and closed his eyes, seeming to be meditating and reminiscing.
Xiao Liu didn't dare to disturb him, so he had to wait quietly.
After a long time, Mr. Zhu opened his eyes. He returned the book to Xiaoliu and sighed: "To interpret the book, you still need the person who gave it to you!"
"What do you mean, sir?" Xiao Liu took the book and asked doubtfully.
But listening to Xiao Liu's question, Mr. Zhu smiled and said: "Deputy Chief Yan is very talented, so there is no need to ask more questions."
"Ha, I feel inexplicably tired today. It seems I need to catch up on some sleep." Mr. Zhu said with a yawn.
Listening to Mr. Zhu's clear eviction order, although Xiao Liu still had many doubts in his heart, he still clasped his fists and resigned:
"Mr. Nao is really nagging today. Since he is sleepy, I won't disturb him for his rest. Xiaoliu will leave now."
Seeing Xiao Liu being so calm, Mr. Zhu nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile:
"Deputy Yan, please hurry up. I'm not feeling well today, so I didn't entertain you well. If you have time someday, please come back and talk about it again. In addition, remember not to practice this technique lightly!" Mr. Zhu reminded carefully.
"Thank you sir for your teaching, Xiao Liu will remember it." Xiao Liu clasped his fists and resigned.
But just after Xiaoliu left, the mysterious old man suddenly appeared in the house again, as if he teleported without any warning.
Mr. Zhu still didn't care, he stroked his beard and sighed.
"Although there were many doubts in his heart, he still held back, and his expression remained as usual, not impatient or impatient. It's amazing that he is so young and has such a kind heart!"
"It's amazing, listen!" The mysterious old man also nodded and said in a solemn voice.
When Mr. Zhu heard this, he couldn't help but close his eyes curiously and concentrate on his ears.
In an instant, he opened his eyes with a solemn expression.
"He's waiting for you?"
"Yes! He discovered it." The mysterious old man also stroked his beard and smiled.
"This guy is so scheming! I still underestimated him." Mr. Zhu also had a solemn look on his face.
"So scheming, so talented, if..."
"If the ability is not enough, then no matter how deep the scheming is, it will be useless." The mysterious old man chuckled, and then he disappeared again.
And Xiaoliu, who was waiting for what he was thinking about at the corner fence, felt a breeze blowing in front of him.
He looked around and saw that it was indeed just a breeze.
Mr. Zhu smiled and shook his head when he saw the old man leaving in front of Xiao Liu so easily.
In the world of martial arts, intelligence is of course very important, but when the gap in martial arts is too large, intelligence becomes a joke.
Outside the fence, Xiaoliu, who was still waiting, didn't know that the person he wanted to wait for had quietly passed in front of him.
Xiaoliu waited for a long time, but still no one came out of Mr. Zhu's house, and he couldn't help but feel a little shaken by his guess.
But when I think of Mr. Zhu’s chuckle when he opened the first page of the book, and his deep meaning that the book needs to be interpreted by the person who gave it to him, plus both of them are masters and both live in Qixia Town. , and they are all of the same age.
In addition, Mr. Zhu's various behaviors today are also very abnormal, especially the bizarre behavior of expelling guests at the end.
This made Xiao Liu even more firm in his conjecture.
And Xiaoliu thought that as long as he kept waiting, he would know whether his guess was right or not.
If you're wrong, it's just a waste of time; if you're right, it's possible to learn this extremely high-level peerless martial arts.
But unfortunately, from noon to sunset, until Mr. Zhu turned off the lights and rested, Xiaoliu did not wait for the person he wanted to wait for.
In the end, Xiao Liu left, thinking that he had guessed wrong. But, actually he. . .
————————————————————————————
In the next two days, Xiaoliu's life became a four-point one-stop routine. He either went to visit Mr. Zhu's house to stay, or went to the painting shop to inquire about waiting. For lunch, he went to Tongfu Inn to solve his stomach problem.
With such a full schedule, the county government office became the place where he spent the shortest time except sleeping and practicing martial arts.
Fortunately, there was nothing important in this town, and Lou Zhixian only asked him to report on today's security situation at night, so Xiao Liu's behavior was not restricted.
And just today.
"Deputy Yan, sir, would you like to go back?" A yamen servant quickly ran to the painting shop and told Xiaoliu.
"What's wrong? Is there something important?" Xiao Liu asked curiously.
"This little one doesn't know. He only knows that Li Dazui and his mother are here." The yamen servant didn't know either, but he still told the truth.
When Xiao Liu heard this, he was thoughtful, what could happen to Da Zui and his mother?
Could it be that Xiao Liu suddenly thought of something, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"Let's go back!"
Xiao Liu, who thought of something interesting, said with a smile, feeling a little emotional in his heart.
'The legendary severed finger Xuanyuan! This Qixia Town is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. The senior masters are coming one after another. Before the old man here can be found, another legendary gambling saint comes. '
Back at the county government office, Xiao Liu came to the inner courtyard after being notified. At this time, Lou Zhixian was drinking tea and chatting with an old lady in the living room.
The old lady was wearing a blue cloth. Her figure was stooped, her face was wrinkled, and her eyes were dull. However, she spoke with a strong voice, and it was obvious that she must be in good health.
Xiao Liu couldn't help but feel a little confused when he saw this. Didn't Big Mouth say that his mother was sick? But this spirit is probably much better than the cowering Big Mouth standing aside.
"I've met you, sir!" After Xiaoliu came in, he first saluted Lou Zhixian with clasped fists as usual.
However, Lou Zhixian, who had always been kind to Xiao Liu in the past, had a serious tone today, and he asked in a deep voice.
"Deputy Yan is here. Deputy Yan knows that there are people in this county who dare to gather people to gamble."
Hearing that Lou Zhixian spoke unkindly today, Xiao Liu's heart froze. At the same time, he also knew that his guess was right, it was Lao Bai who was gambling with his big mouth.
And now based on Lou Zhixian's tone, it seems that Lao Bai is going to be miserable.
"It's because of the unfavorable inspection and dereliction of duty." Xiao Liu quickly admitted his mistake.
Lou Zhixian looked at Xiao Liu who admitted his mistake and nodded with satisfaction. He actually didn't want to punish Xiao Liu. After all, although the Qixia Town is not big, it is not small either. Xiao Liu is not easy-going, so how can he know everything? .
The main thing is that someone has sued him about this matter, and this person is still his sister-in-law. Someone must help him fight, otherwise he will be embarrassed in front of his relatives.
Seeing Xiaoliu taking the responsibility on himself, Lou Zhixian also showed his magnanimity at the right time and said:
"Okay, you have been killing thieves for days and have no skills at all. I can't blame you for such negligence. However, I have already given repeated orders, but there are still crazy people who dare to gather people to gamble. Such evil behavior must be severely punished! I now order you to go and arrest Bring this person!"
"yes!"
