Chapter 63 Don't underestimate the city gate officer
Zhou Yuan has been a little panicked recently, his nerves are tense, and he is polite to anyone he meets, not daring to show off his airs, and even more afraid to show his authority. If he meets a stranger, as long as others stare at him and breathe more than three times, he will try his best to escape.
City gate.
Zhou Yuan sat on the chair, with a cup of tea on the table, which was already cold and he didn't notice it.
I couldn't believe that this matter would be true.
One of the top families in Ping'an City, the Zhou family, has been in business for hundreds of years and is deeply rooted and collapsed overnight without warning.
Even several powerful Jindan realm figures in the family, including the head of the family Zhou Tianbao, were killed by others.
Anyone who is a direct member, who is dead or a closed member, has not escaped.
Even those children of the collaterals who are close to the main meridian are uprooted.
As a descendant of the Zhou family, although his bloodline is a bit far away.
Before this.
He was very close to Zhou Qingwei. When facing the attack from the government office, he was frightened, his scalp was numb, he couldn't eat well, and he couldn't sleep steadily. He was worried all the time. The next unlucky one was him.
at the same time.
He also learned some of the reasons for the destruction of the Zhou family. Several powerful Jindan realm figures, including the head of the family Zhou Tianbao, all died at the hands of Ji's mansion.
Others don’t know who Ji’s mansion is, but his heart is like a mirror.
When Xiao Ning and others had just arrived in Ping'an City, he even stopped them.
The contradiction has been concluded.
When the Zhou family was not falling, he did not take the Ji family seriously. How could a rich man who moved from Ning County be compared with a giant like the Zhou family?
As a result, a god reversal came.
The huge creature in his eyes was actually destroyed by the Ji Mansion.
Then the government came forward and destroyed all the remaining forces of the Zhou family. Even all the Zhou family's industries were swallowed up by the government.
Several other major families secretly promoted it, but the government office was the one who benefited the most.
Thinking of this.
Zhou Yuan's face was ashes, his eyes were empty, as if he had lost his soul, and he was listless.
"I am just a little man, a little city gate official. It has been so long since they have passed. They should have forgotten me, right?" Zhou Yuan comforted himself so much.
He couldn't convince him of this reason.
At this time.
Three terrifying figures appeared in his sight. Even though the other party smiled like a spring breeze, Zhou Yuan's heart fell into the ice valley when he looked at the three faces in front of him.
Even he didn't know when he stood up. When he came to his senses, he had already kneeled in front of the three of them.
"Sir, are you?" The soldier was stunned and wondered if he had read the wrong person.
"Get out!" Zhou Yuan roared with a cold face.
After sending the soldier, he laughed and looked at Xiao Ning with a pug, begging.
"Young Master Xiao, you are here, please have tea!"
He knelt on the ground, poured a cup of tea with the teapot, held it in both hands, and handed it over respectfully.
"Isn't this our Zhou Yuanzhou City Gate official? At this North City Gate, you are the gods. What's wrong? Why are you kneeling on the ground and doing?" Xiao Ning ignored the teacup he handed over.
He held his hands together and looked at him jokingly.
"I am so excited to see you, Mr. Xiao, that I can't express my respect for Mr. Xiao. Only by kneeling, looking up at you, and looking at your style all the time can I see one or two parts of the truth from you and drive me to make progress." Zhou Yuan flattered without trace.
"Is that true?" Li Long pulled a chair open and Xiao Ning sat on it lazily.
He crossed his legs and looked at him carelessly.
"Tell me, what have you learned from me?"
"Terror, work hard, be motivated, be studious, and diligent... I heard that you are a scholar. In order to review your homework, you only slept for less than two hours a day for half a year. You memorized all the thousands of books in your heart, and even memorized a certain line and a certain word. This spirit is worth learning and admiring."
"Is this happening?" Xiao Ning blinked and smiled even happier.
"Young Master, don't know? This matter has spread all over Ping'an City. Not to mention Ping'an City, even the nearby counties have heard of your name. When you mention your son, all scholars respect you as an example, take you as a role model, and work hard all the time." Zhou Yuan's eyes were sincere and patted his chest to assure him.
"I didn't expect that some old stories were circulating so widely, which was not what I wanted. I just wanted to read quietly." Xiao Ning sighed.
He took the teacup from his hand and took a leisurely sip.
"This level is finally half over." Zhou Yuan's tense heart then relaxed.
"The young master not only has outstanding literary talent, but also wrote a good poem that was always circulated in Ping'an County. It was recommended as a classic by a well-known scholar and entered the academy for all students to learn. Even his talent for cultivation was at the level of a genius, with no one in a thousand. His sword skills were superb and he was still in the foundation-building realm. He had already killed the dragon in the Jindan realm and eliminated the harm for the people..."
Within the next hour.
Zhou Yuan started the flattery mode, from the inside out, from the outside to the inside, without repetition, and boasted Xiao Ning from beginning to end.
As the saying goes, there is a strong one, and even Li Long’s eyes when he looks at him become unkind.
Squinted his eyes and thought to himself that this person is a "strong enemy"!
This skill in flattery is no less than that of me...
"Cough! Cough!" Xiao Ning coughed twice.
He was embarrassed to do something if he interrupted his words and continued to praise him like this.
"Congratulations to young master, congratulations to young master! Two coughs for no reason are auspiciousness from the sky, which means that the young master is rich this year. In less than three months, when Jixia Academy recruits disciples, the young master will definitely be able to enter Jixia Academy. From then on, he will soar into the sky and have a bright future." Zhou Yuan praised again.
"Talent!" Xiao Ning sighed in his heart.
But the accounts still have to be settled. If you don’t vent your anger, you will feel unhappy.
Standing up from the chair, put away the fun, and looked at him expressionlessly.
"Young Master, I have practiced a martial art recently. I need to use external forces to refine my body, so that I can practice this martial art to great success. Please take some time to help me practice this martial art." Zhou Yuan hugged his head with his hands, curled his head, and took the initiative to lie on the ground.
Even Xiao Ning had already found the reason for taking action and handed over the olive branch on his own initiative.
"It's rare that you have this kind of heart. If you refuse you again, it would be too unreasonable! Helping others has always been my motto. Let's go together, don't beat him to death, help him practice this technique." Xiao Ning made the final decision.
Set the tone of this matter.
Beat him up and spare his life. The accounts of both parties will be completely exposed from then on.
Chapter completed!
