The correct way to fill the hole

I don't know if I heard Xiao Er's report, but the shopkeeper really came to find Duan Tianlan and the two that night.

However, after knowing that they were monks of the Lingcang sect, the shopkeeper's previous dissatisfaction suddenly turned into a spring breeze, his big eyes almost disappeared from the smile, and his figure suddenly dropped extremely low.

Duan Tianlan and the two took advantage of the opportunity to reprimand him for abandoning his father, and the shopkeeper nodded and bowed. He had to admit his mistakes as sincerely as possible, and said that he would take good care of the old man in the future and would never drive the old man out again.

"Are you trustworthy what he said?" After the shopkeeper left, Duan Tianlan asked Duan Tianhan with a confused smile. He believed that he already had the answer in his heart.

Duan Tianhan shook his head as expected, although Duan Tianlan had already vaccinated him in advance, but when he saw the face of the shopkeeper with his own eyes, he still felt very uncomfortable.

"Although Tianhan is not as intelligent and sensitive as senior brother, it can be seen that the shopkeeper is very knowledgeable about current affairs and knows what we want to hear and what we don't want to hear. It's just that his smile is so hypocritical and his attitude is so perfunctory. I don't know if I really repent, but I think I will really act like what the senior brother said, and I am afraid that I will treat the old man badly in the future."

Duan Tianlan watched Duan Tianhan show a deep look that didn't match his age, but his heart softened uncontrollably.He was still too involved in the drama. After getting along with him during this period of time, he actually developed a sincere love for Duan Tianhan. If he becomes more mature, then he might be able to better accept the fact when the day of his death comes.

Although he can't change the plot, it's good to be able to change Duan Tianhan's state of mind and make him less painful.But who would have thought that he would accidentally get used to pretending to be a virgin, on the one hand, he was sincerely planning for Duan Tianhan, on the other hand, he felt that forcing him to mature prematurely was too cruel, and he couldn't bear it.

Sighing silently in the bottom of her heart, Duan Tianlan stepped forward and touched Duan Tianhan's head. "Tianhan, don't be too sad. As long as we find out the reason why the city has no officials, everything will be fine. It's getting late, if you don't want to sleep, go to practice. Immortal Muxi taught you the exercises how's it going?"

Duan Tianhan raised his head and looked at Duan Tianlan. Immortal Muxi is the fairy name of the old man in his jade pendant. The old man recently handed him a new set of exercises, which are different from the cultivation methods of the Lingcang sect. Cangpai disciples should not learn other exercises, but the senior brother told him that the methods of cultivation are all interlinked, only the one that suits him is the best, and learning one more exercise will not change his lingering power. The identity of Cang's disciple, on the contrary, the stronger he is, the more he is trying to win glory for Ling Cang.

That's why Duan Tianhan accepted the old man's exercises, and found that he was really suitable for Lei Linggen's cultivation, and he has been working very hard recently.When Duan Tianlan asked at this time, although he still had confidence, he did not dare to boast about himself: "I have already learned the basic exercises, but I am not very familiar with the use of them, and the combination with Ling Cang's original exercises is not smooth. .”

Duan Tianlan nodded, the plot has not yet arrived, even if Duan Tianhan's cultivation base is still accumulating, he will not break through for a while, so he is not in a hurry. "That's fine, you don't need to rush for quick success, just penetrate slowly, and the cultivation base that has been cultivated steadily is more reliable. If you encounter any problems, you must come to Brother Wei in time."

Duan Tianhan also nodded gratefully: "Tianhan knows."

Duan Tianlan then helped Duan Tianhan check the aura in his body again, and found that his cultivation had indeed become more and more stable, which showed that the set of exercises had a considerable effect on him.The spiritual energy in his dantian is tightly entwined layer by layer, and there is a faint tendency to form a pill, and it seems that even if he really forms a pill in the future, it will definitely be more stable than his.

Duan Tianlan praised him on the surface, but deep in his heart, he only thought of envy, jealousy and hatred.

Why in his own article, his unique author can only be a high-level cannon fodder with protagonist assists, this world is so unfair (つД`)ノ...

It was getting late, and after he and Duan Tianhan explained it, Duan Tianlan discovered that the little black dog on the bed who was usually lethargic to death had both eyes wide open today, and was looking at him. There seems to be a little complicated feeling in the eyes.

Since Xiao Wang came to his side, he has been sleeping except eating and drinking, and he can sleep all day at once, which once made him deeply suspect that his Nascent Soul-like cultivation base fell from the sky and happened to hit him.But today's bumpy road, even if Xiao Wang sleeps, he probably won't be safe. Now that he has a bed and can't sleep well, he has reason to think that he is actually waiting for him to sleep together.

As a qualified dog slave, Duan Tianlan felt happy just thinking about it like this.

So he glanced at Duan Tianhan beside him, even if he regarded him as his own son, but the little ancestor would definitely not agree with Duan Tianhan sleeping in the same bed with him, so in comparison, this son who doesn't need to sleep can be out .

Duan Tianhan, who has already recognized his brother's dog slave physique, said very interestingly when he saw this, what Duan Tianlan said just now touched him very much, so he planned to practice overnight.

In fact, he also had lingering fears about Xiao Wang's cultivation, and he had been hurt by Xiao Wang before, knowing that he was not easy to get along with, so he didn't dare to share the same bed with him.

Duan Tianlan nodded approvingly, the protagonist should be so hardworking.

Looking at Xiao Wang's very satisfied eyes, Duan Tianlan made a formula for removing dust and purifying the body, then rolled onto the bed and hugged Xiao Wang, patted his head and prepared to sleep with him.

Xiao Wang struggled for a few times, found a position at the same level as Duan Tianlan's head, and took a leisurely look at Duan Tianlan, then closed his eyes and planned to sleep.

Therefore, although Duan Tianhan already felt that sleep was not so important, he still felt exhausted and sleepy seeing his elder brother with Jindan cultivation base and that little black dog with at least Nascent Soul cultivation base sleeping soundly. ...

Helpless, after Duan Tianhan gave back the envy Duan Tianlan gave him just now, he still began to meditate seriously.

The next day, Duan Tianlan asked Duan Tianhan to call all the disciples, and told everyone what the old man said yesterday, and then talked about the next step: "The cause of this matter is in the yamen, and the people who died one after another came here to take office. Officials, these are definitely not caused by coincidence, so I think we have to go to the Yamen to check first, find out if there are any clues, and then see if there is a way to crack it."

Duan Tianhan nodded, and said, "Now the county government office in Nacheng is dilapidated, and the inside is deserted. It doesn't matter if we go directly. Brothers, what do you think?"

"The dead are all officials, it's really strange, but many officials who came to take office later died on the road, will there be any results if we only go to the yamen to investigate?" Duan Tianshi, one of the disciples, suddenly asked.

Duan Tianlan looked at him, and did not show any impatience, but patiently explained to him: "Indeed, the next few officials who died on the road all died in different sections of the road, and the causes of death were also different. It seems that They are all accidents, but it is not so coincidental that they are linked together. However, this can also show that the location and cause of death are not the key to the death of these officials. , then they are all related to the city; at the same time, they are all here to serve as county magistrates, so they have nothing to do with the county government."

"Besides, the first official to die was the old county magistrate of Naocheng. It is said that he had been in office for more than ten years. Although he was over fifty years old, he had always been in good health and was upright. Now he died suddenly, and he was also in the yamen. If you say that there is nothing weird about the Yamen in this city, I don't believe it."

After he finished speaking, Duan Tianshi and other disciples were also persuaded, nodding and agreeing to his plan one by one.

So everyone went back to their own rooms, waiting for a while to gather and set off to find out what happened to the Yacheng County Government.

After half an hour, the disciples had assembled downstairs in the inn. Duan Tianlan counted the number of people, and asked Xiao Er to watch Chenggui and Xiao Wang in the store and take good care of the old man, and then made arrangements to set off.

I don't know why, or maybe it's just that Xiao Wang's little ancestor went to bed late yesterday, and this morning Duan Tianlan couldn't get up no matter what Duan Tianlan told him, and he didn't want to go out with him because he was clutching at the bed.

Duan Tianlan had no choice but to leave him at the inn, and it happened that Chenggui was too big and eye-catching, so he simply kept him with Xiao Wang, thinking that these two guys would not be able to go anywhere, let alone with him as a free cook Bacheng would not want to run away, so he took his disciples out with confidence.

The city of Nao in the morning is a bit different from the evening. Some hawkers still set up stalls, but their faces are full of sorrow, as if continuing to set up stalls is just forced by life.However, there are always some sleazy gangsters who grab a handful of these stalls when they pass by, and then run away.The peddler yelled a few words, but it didn't help. He chased after him and couldn't let go of his stall. In the end, he could only sigh deeply, shook his head and continued to count the things on the stall.

On the street, there are still some women with blue complexions and sometimes bruises on their foreheads who go out with baskets, but there are also men passing by who directly pinch these girls' buttocks. Stand up and speak up for these weak women.

The list goes on and on.In this county that has lost its law and binding force, people voluntarily or are forced to abandon the kindness and beauty of human nature, abandon ethics and morality, and the darkest side of human nature is so unbearably displayed.

Duan Tianlan sighed silently in his heart, only when he was on the scene did he realize that some words can't just be said and written.

The disciples behind him still couldn't swallow this breath, and when they saw the rascals, they would clean up every one they could.Duan Tianlan didn't stop this time either, they didn't care about the people in the city doing evil at home yesterday, but in broad daylight today, since they saw them, they couldn't ignore it.

"You! You bastards from other places, why do you care about me! Don't think that you can be a chivalrous man because of your kung fu! Let me tell you, in Nao City, you will die in a few days! I'm bah! Look at you! You can be a hero for a few days!" A young man with the appearance of a local ruffian just escaped from Duan Tianjin's hands, then he turned around and spat, and yelled at everyone.

Although Duan Tianlan asked his disciples to complain about injustices, he also specifically told them not to hurt people's lives, so in the end they would let them go after they cleaned up.It's just that they didn't expect that the humanity in Naocheng was so thin, and they turned around to curse them after letting him go. It seems that there is really no hope.

But the curse of that hooligan made everyone's hearts tighten again.

Hearing what he said didn't sound like he said it casually. It should have been true that someone had stood up for the people before and something happened.So it's not that only officials have accidents in this city, but anyone who supports the people will have accidents?

Fortunately, the woman who was rescued by them just now was still grateful to her savior as a victim. Seeing that they frowned because of that man's words, they kindly reminded them a few words: "Heroes, why don't you take that man just now?" If you take it seriously, this city is no longer a reasonable place. At the beginning, it was only the county magistrate who was unlucky and killed; later, there was no county magistrate, and there was really no way, and the local people respected some celebrities. , but unexpectedly they also died one after another; later on, even some chivalrous men in the early years would also die one after another; now it is even more outrageous, some of the tribute scholars, Jinshi, and Juren from the village have recently begun to fall ill... Most of the people who are still staying in the city are poor people who have nowhere to go. The little girl sees that you are all kind-hearted masters, so I would like to remind you. Anyway, please be careful."

Everyone was even more surprised.

It turns out that not only officials, local celebrities, chivalrous men, and even gongshijuren will die inexplicably. So are they correct in guessing that the chaos in the county is related to local officials?Is there any point in going to Yamen?What is going on in this city?What do these people have in common?

"I see!" Duan Tianhan thought for a while and suddenly said, "Whether these people are county magistrates, celebrities, knights, or tribute scholars, their mission, or what they may do in the future, is to serve the people. Serving and benefiting the people. From this point of view, what they have in common is either being able to be the masters of the people, or being admired by everyone!"

Everyone suddenly realized that Duan Tianlan, who was about to speak, also looked at his eldest son with satisfaction, yes, he deserves to be the hero he created, with a flexible mind.

"No matter what, the cause of this matter is still in the county government. Let's go and have a look first. If it is really what Tianhan guessed, and the county government can't find anything, then let's inquire about those celebrities and others. It's not too late."

Duan Tianlan opened his mouth to propose, and everyone agreed one by one. After all, they have no other clues except this road, so the group of them continued to walk in the direction of the county government.

A lot of people and things were solved along the way, so naturally a lot of time was wasted. When everyone finally arrived at the Yicheng County Government Office, it was almost noon.

Everyone stood under the plaque of the Nangcheng County Government Office, which had been covered with a thick layer of dust. The mallet also disappeared.

Everyone sighed with emotion, paused and followed Duan Tianlan in.

Although they didn't expect to find any clues in this decaying place, since Duan Tianlan gave orders, they still tried their best to search the yamen, hoping to find some clues.

However, it would be a pleasant surprise if something was discovered.

After a while, Duan Tianhan suddenly jumped out of the study room he and his disciples searched together, and found Duan Tianlan and his party who were searching the dormitory. His words revealed two mixed emotions of surprise and anger: "Senior brother , we found it in the study, please go and have a look with other brothers."

Duan Tianlan nodded, he knew that Duan Tianhan's discovery would be the most critical piece of information in the whole matter, so he gathered everyone and walked to the study together.

When a group of people entered the study room, there were already several disciples gathered in front of the bookshelves, all of whom looked unhappy.The place where the desk and other sundries should have been placed has been moved away, freeing up a small space.

"Senior brother, come and see." The disciples in the house saw Duan Tianlan coming, and after saying hello, they consciously gave up a place for him, and the place and its contents were presented in front of Duan Tianlan at a glance. .

"Array." Duan Tianlan's pupils shrank suddenly, "I see."

The author has something to say:

Lan Lan: The author who wears books is not as good as a dog. I also want to eat and sleep and still have the cultivation base of Nascent Soul (_)

Q: Daddy, you got two things wrong. Xiao Wang first had the Nascent Soul cultivation base before eating and sleeping. Also, Daddy, you are not as good as a dog if you don’t wear books (￣▽￣)

Lan Lan:......

I finally finished coding at a slow speed and I came back to save the manuscript _(:з」∠)_...

Woah, the next chapter will be rough and spicy o(≧v≦)o

Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, there will be classes in the evening. The next chapter will probably be on the weekend. Well, if I can still code it (/ω＼)
