The State of Zheng is located in the northwest of the State of Cai, close to the Zhou Dynasty. It was given the title of Grand Duke and has always been the minister assisting the emperor. Two hundred years ago, it was the first prince among the countries. The country was strong and peaceful. It was famous all over the world for not picking up lost things on the road and not closing the door at night.
It is a pity that the country is located in the land of the Four Wars. After the rise of great powers such as Chu, Jin, Qi, and Qin, Zheng was often used as the battlefield in the battles for the Central Plains, and it gradually declined. But it is still among the first-class powers.
, along with Song, Lu, Wei and other countries, Xinzheng, the capital of the country, has a population of more than 100,000 and is also a prosperous city.
The year before last, in order to deal with Zuo Shenyin, when Wu Sheng was ordered to look for clues about the Longevity Pill case, he had come to Xinzheng. At that time, he went straight to the house of Wu Jiu, the doctor involved in the case, and through him he got the ironclad evidence that Zuo Shenyin was selling longevity pills.
.
This time, he went to the Xinzheng Academy, intending to use his sharp tongue to persuade Peng Li, the newly transferred student, to form an alliance with the academy and jointly deal with the outside hall.
Peng Li was quite enthusiastic about Wu Sheng's visit, and he was not lacking in all kinds of etiquette, and the visit started smoothly.
Wu Sheng gave a small gift worth five pieces of gold, and then explained his purpose: "To be honest with Brother Peng, Sun is entrusted by someone to come and make peace."
Peng Li raised his eyebrows: "Is Sun Xingxing working as a lobbyist for Sui Yue?"
Wu Sheng said with a smile: "I'm not talking about being a lobbyist, I just came to see if there is anything that can help you two resolve the misunderstanding. Brother Peng has been planning hard for many days, but all his efforts have been wasted because of Fei Longzi. It is indeed a pity, no matter who encounters it."
When I hear something like this happen, I feel unhappy..."
Peng Li said: "Why is Peng so unhappy? The demon cultivator is a cannibal and is causing harm to the world. If we capture it as soon as possible, Xinzheng will be at peace as soon as possible. Now because of following the Yue disciples, the demon cultivator has escaped.
The disaster is huge. You must know that if it is free and easy for a day in the world, one more innocent person will suffer disaster. What a huge mistake it makes!"
Wu Sheng nodded repeatedly: "Brother Peng is right, the harm is indeed huge. Every time I think about this, I sigh in sorrow and sleepless nights. In addition, two of his most capable disciples have disappeared, and I am also suffering a lot..."
Peng Li sneered and said: "Missing? From Peng's point of view, he is sheltering criminals for his own privacy! Sun Xingxing may not know that when I interrogated Fei Longzi, this guy was stubborn and refused to speak, which shows that he has something in his heart.
Gui. It seems to Peng that Fei Longzi and Meng Jin are hiding!"
Wu Sheng explained: "When Sun met Suiyue, he did not show any pretense. Sun had known him for several years and knew him well. His disciples Fei Longzi and Meng Jin disappeared, and he was also very concerned and worried.
There must be something fishy in this.”
Peng Li said: "Sun Xingxing, you can't tell in the human heart. Sometimes the person you think you know best is often another person. If Peng remembers correctly, you were originally a monk in the wild, and you have only served as a walker for four years, right?
The deceit and cunningness of the human heart is not as simple as you think. Peng has seen many things about protecting shortcomings, so it is not surprising. Let alone protecting shortcomings, it is not surprising even if he colludes with evil heretics, or even becomes evil heretics himself. Sun Xingxing, you
Did he solve the case of Taoist Jiuyou? He is an example of this. Hu Liangchen, who is now ranked tenth on the red list, was walking in Xuancheng twenty-five years ago. If he was walking in a dignified manner, wouldn't he also fall into the devil's way? Yes.
Yes, there is also the Pengcheng robbery case, which was a major case that caused Peng Mou to be extremely embarrassed. Does Sun Xingxing know who the main culprit is? But the news that has been spread is that you, Shi Tiezhong, a former traveler from Yangzhou!"
Wu Sheng continued to work hard: "What Brother Peng said is true, so Sun came here specially to find out what was wrong. Now Zhao Shang of Jiujiang, Xue Zhong of Yingdu, and Cai Zhang of Shangcai have gathered in Suicheng. We people
I mean, if you can figure it out by yourself, figure it out yourself, and if you can resolve the disputes by yourself, just find a way to resolve it yourself, why bother with the outside hall?"
Peng Li asked: "Do you want to leave the academy?"
Wu Sheng explained: "It's not that I want to put aside the academy, I just want to come up with an opinion that everyone can accept so that the deacons will not have no goals. Brother Peng may not know that in the last battle in Chengyang, in order to kill the deputies,
We don’t know how much money we spent on serving the outside hall. Sun knew that Brother Peng came from Pengcheng. Pengcheng is a wealthy place, but this is not how to spend money. What do you think?"
Peng Li did not agree with this: "Determine a countermeasure in private to fool the deacon outer hall? What is this? Doesn't this violate the original intention of the academy to establish the deacon outer hall? As for the gift money, Cheng Yi, I should have it
There will be no shortage of them, but if they want to use this to extort money, Mr. Peng will not tolerate their misbehavior!"
After saying that, he glared at Wu Sheng and said, "The right and wrong are all matters of justice!"
Seeing this gentleman's righteous and awe-inspiring look, he didn't know whether he was really awe-inspiring or fake. In short, Wu Sheng was scratching his head and reminded him again: "Brother Peng, you are new here, why do you go against our other schools? Everyone is enjoying themselves.
Isn't it great? If Xinzheng encounters trouble in the future, we will help you."
Peng Li said: "If you want to use the excuse of helping each other to engage in personal gain, Peng will never agree! If he wants to clarify the problem of his disciples, he will come up with a strong statement or hand over the person, otherwise
Let the academy handle it! Sun Xingxing, if you have nothing else to do, please come back. If you don’t agree with each other, don’t conspire against each other.”
Wu Sheng could only talk and leave. As expected, they had different paths and could not work together. Wu Sheng had a three-inch golden tongue. It turned out that Peng Li's tongue was longer than him, and he spoke more plausibly, which made Wu Sheng feel that he was a villain for a while.
The trend of evolution is actually embarrassing.
After leaving Xinzheng Academy, walking on the east road of the academy, wandering among the crowd, I couldn't help but feel a bit of desolation deep in my heart, and from the desolation, I felt angry and angry, and a burst of anger hit me: Is this Peng Li serious?
Don’t know what’s good and what’s good!
When I was thinking about the next step, I saw a sheep cart passing by. It was Dr. Zheng Guo Wujiu, the unlucky guy who went fishing for law enforcement last time.
This man was captured by Xue Zhong at that time. As a witness to accuse Zuo Shen of selling longevity pills, Wu Sheng went to Linzi. After that, Wu Sheng never paid attention to his news. Unexpectedly, he met him again on the streets of Xinzheng at this moment.
Already.
However, the Academy will not severely punish those who purchase Longevity Pills privately. In addition, Wujiu is old, so I am afraid that they did not deal with him much. He should have been released after giving a testimony.
Wu Sheng thought for a while and simply followed the sheep cart until he reached Wu Jiu's house. The house was still as dilapidated as before, and there had obviously been no improvement in the past two years. That's not entirely correct. At least the old man had one more sheep.
car.
As soon as the old man got out of the car and walked into the hall, Wu Sheng climbed over the wall and went in. The old man moved so quickly that he didn't even recognize who was coming, so he shot out a fierce Zhenyuan Gangfeng. Unfortunately, it was Wu Sheng who he met.
Sheng, Wu Sheng stretched out his finger and pointed it out. He looked at Gang Feng as if it were nothing and directly touched his waist and ribs. Suddenly, half of his body was numb and he couldn't move for a long time.
Wu Sheng did not strike hard, Wu Jiu held his breath and brewed for a moment before regaining consciousness. At this moment, he stared at the sneak attacker who was sitting lazily, and finally recognized him: "Strong man. No, Sun Xingxing
!”
