My lord, I will be brought to justice!

A steady older brother and a naughty younger brother.

Because two more people moved in, the detective agency, which had been cold for a long time, finally became lively.

"Brother Kuo, what are you doing?"

The new "cook" Chu Tiankuo is preparing lunch in the kitchen, while his older brother Qing Feng is cleaning the courtyard.

The younger brother Qing Yang idly followed behind his brother's ass, and Qing Yang scattered all the dirt in the courtyard that had just been cleaned.

Xu Shi's elder brother was a little impatient at being disturbed like this, and coaxed and deceived his younger brother away.

Where is the coolness and where to stay.

Only then did Qing Yang extend his "devil's claws" to Chu Tiankuo.

"I'm about to start a fire and scramble eggs." Chu Tiankuo lay down beside the stove, adding firewood to it.

The sparks of the firewood met the firewood and played a cheerful movement, but the movement did not last long before it was extinguished.

Chu Tiankuo looked unconvinced, how could such a trivial matter as lighting a fire be difficult for him.

The firewood that had just been extinguished in the stove was still twinkling with red stars, and Chu Tiankuo stuck his head out and blew into it.

"Huh...huh..." Repeated many times, thick smoke rose from inside.

"Cough cough..." Chu Tiankuo was choked by the smoke and coughed, his eyes were so smoked that he couldn't stop crying, his face was black and white, not to mention how embarrassed he looked.

Seeing Chu Tiankuo's appearance, Qing Yang covered his mouth and couldn't help laughing, "Brother Kuo, I can make a fire, let me do it."

After finishing speaking, Qing Yang took the fire folder and lay down in front of the stove to start a fire, looking like a little adult.

"Cough...cough..., I'll leave the fire to you, and I'll wash my face." Chu Tiankuo's disheveled face was really funny, and he left the kitchen as if fleeing.

When he returned to the kitchen after washing his face, Qing Yang had already finished lighting the fire and was beating eggs.

Chu Tiankuo was very pleased, these two children were so sensible, it was really peace of mind.

He wanted to give a good compliment, but in the next second he saw eggs that were broken all over the floor, and the broken eggshells were mixed with egg white and egg yolk, sticking all over the floor.

In the bowl held by Qing Yang, only the egg white was left, and the egg yolk was missing.

"Hey, these eggs are too ugly, I want to choose beautiful eggs." Qing Yang held a bowl bigger than his face, and his small hands were full of sticky egg liquid.

Chu Tiankuo: ...

This is not about picking a daughter-in-law, who would look better with an egg.

The smell of smoke in the air made Chu Tiankuo couldn't help sniffling, "Qing Yang, do you smell burning?"

"No!"

Chu Tiankuo looked around, and when he looked at the stove, he shouted loudly, "Qing Yang, get water quickly! It's on fire."

Qing Yang heard the reputation and looked towards the stove, he suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to put the burning firewood into the stove.

Basin after basin of water, Qing Feng also rushed over upon hearing the movement, and the three of them joined the firefighting operation together.

Fortunately, the fire was not big, and the fire was extinguished after a few trips back and forth, but the walls were blackened by smoke.

The faces of the three of them were all smoky, and for a moment you looked at me and I looked at you, the funny look made the three of them laugh at the same time.

The scrambled eggs were not eaten, and the kitchen was almost destroyed.

Chu Tiankuo gave him a good firefighting lesson, and Qingyang was not allowed to enter the kitchen from now on.

Qing Yang listened nonchalantly, "Brother Kuo doesn't know how to make fires, so I went..."

Chu Tiankuo: ...

Qing Feng: ...

Seeing this, Qing Yang made a mischievous face and went out to play.

Chu Tiankuo shook his head helplessly, thinking about the days of flying around...

…………

After the new county magistrate took office, the atmosphere in Bei'an County has been greatly improved.

Everyone picks up money without hesitation, and takes the initiative to hand it in; every house does not close its doors at night, and the doors are open everywhere.

This is a good thing, it is indeed a good thing.

"Ah!" Chu Tiankuo lay on the table, hanging his head boredly.

The atmosphere in Bei'an County is so good, not to mention murder and arson, there is no case of hunting cats and dogs to catch mistresses.

If things go on like this, the detective agency will close down sooner or later.

Chu Tiankuo wondered what if he didn't want to venture into the rivers and lakes?

To be a hero who punishes rape and eliminates malice, leaves a good reputation and a good story.

Maybe there is a beautiful woman who promises her body, wouldn't it be beautiful!

The beautiful fantasy was interrupted by the person who came, and Chu Tiankuo stared at the person in front of him.

The tattered clothes, black eyes, and long gray hair stuck together because they hadn't been washed for many days, his face was covered by mud and his face could not be seen clearly, and his dirty shoes left rows of footprints on the ground.

Chu Tiankuo looked at this person as a beggar who came to beg, but in fact he was indeed a beggar.

"Old man, wait for me, I'll go get something to eat." Chu Tiankuo invited him to sit down, and turned around to find some food.

"Okay, okay, I'll wait here, you go." The old man was not polite or restrained at all, as calm as if he was at his own home.

Encounter is fate, and Chu Tiankuo always feels compassion for those in need.

He has always taken the initiative to help others, and he really deserves to be a "good old man".

Chu Tiankuo brought food, the old man ate it in two or three bites, he said it was not enough, so Qing Feng went to the kitchen to bring food again.

How long has it been since you ate?

The three of them looked at the old man in surprise, this speed, this appetite...

Qing Yang curiously played with the old man's beard, which was too impolite, so he was dragged back by his brother.

"Oh, old man, I'm so full. Young man, thank you!" The old man patted his stomach with a satisfied face.

The old man stood up and stared straight at Chu Tiankuo, who was bewildered.

It wasn't until he was so furious that he couldn't help coughing twice.

Just about to ask the old man where he was going next, before he could speak, the old man said first, "Young man, you don't belong here."

you don't belong here...

Chu Tiankuo seemed to be struck by a bolt of lightning, and he couldn't recover for a long time.

He knew that I was time-traveled?

It seems that this person really hides his secrets like in the TV series.

"What you're looking for is on the west side, young man." After saying that, the old man got up and walked towards the door.

"Who are you?" Chu Tiankuo asked towards the door.

"The old man has no name and name, he is just a beggar." After speaking, the figure of the old man disappeared from sight.

Chu Tiankuo hurriedly chased him out.

On the street where people come and go, the figure of the old man has long disappeared.

Back on his seat, Chu Tiankuo took out the half jade pendant and stared blankly.

Does he mean the jade pendant?

Can I go back to the future with the jade pendant?

Qing Feng took all of this into consideration, "You go! My brother and I will wait here for your return."

Qing Yang: "Where is Brother Kuo going?"

Chu Tiankuo smiled and touched the heads of the two, "Nothing can be hidden from Qing Feng's eyes."

Briefly described the jade pendant to the two, and said that the jade pendant was very important to him.

"But where does the west refer?"

Qingfeng said: "Go west from here, Yuling, Hezhou, Lingyang, Linyu, Yucheng..."

If you want to find something, you should go to a crowded place, "Where are these places the most prosperous?"

"If you want to talk about prosperity, it is naturally Lingyang."

Chu Tiankuo looked suspicious: "Why Lingyang?"

"Lingyang is the capital of Jingshui Kingdom, with outstanding people and frequent business exchanges, so it is naturally the most prosperous."

Chu Tiankuo nodded, looking as if he had been so.

"Brother Kuo doesn't even know about Lingyang, he's ignorant." Qing Yang said maliciously with a look of contempt on his face.

Chu Tiankuo: ...

"In that case, I will leave for Lingyang tomorrow, and the detective agency will be handed over to you."

Qing Yang sat in Chu Tiankuo's arms, and said coquettishly: "Brother Kuo, Qing Yang also wants to go with Brother Kuo."

Chu Tiankuo didn't want to take the two brothers with him, but the distance was far away, and he couldn't find the southeast, north, south, and north. If he took them, he would suffer with him.

Thinking of this, Chu Tiankuo felt that it would be better to let the two of them wait here.

Qing Feng warned his younger brother: "Little brother, don't mess around."

"I'll be back soon. I'll bring you delicious food when the time comes, okay? You and your brother will wait obediently at home." Chu Tiankuo said with a gentle face.

"Okay, I'll wait for Brother Kuo to come back at home, don't forget to bring me something delicious."

…………

Chu Tiankuo simply packed his bags.

Bundles, clothes, food... nothing is missing.

"There is my money in the fifth pair of shoes under the cabinet on the left side of the second door on the second floor. These are enough for you to live for a while."

After everything was dealt with, Chu Tiankuo set off early the next morning.

The two brothers saw each other off at the door, "Brother Kuo, you're going in the wrong direction, that's the east..."

"Hahahaha! I'm just going over there to have a look..."

Qing Yang looked at Chu Tiankuo's back with caring eyes and asked: "Brother, do you think Brother Kuo can really go to Lingyang?"

Qing Feng: "...Maybe!"

It's a long way to go to the Tang Dynasty, and there are many monsters and ghosts along the way, take care, Yudi!

As Chu Tiankuo headed westward, he couldn't help but think of Tang Monk going to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures. It seems that this trip may be as difficult as Tang Sanzang's learning Buddhist scriptures.

Chu Tiankuo didn't think so much, he hummed happily.

A white dragon horse with hooves facing west,

Carried Tang Sanzang and followed the three apprentices.

Go to the main road to learn scriptures from the west,

A walk is tens of thousands of miles..."

[The author has something to say: Akuo is looking for her husband, the road is long...]
