Chapter 137 Xiao Lie Returns
[Oh, so that's how it is. Human emotions are so complicated that they can't be understood by a system like mine. 】
Shen Shixu's voice with a smile sounded, [It is precisely because of the complexity that he is a living person! If there is only one emotion from beginning to end, then it is not a human being but a machine. 】
[Human emotions are so complicated, I'd better just watch cartoons. 】011 didn’t really understand these complicated emotions, and felt that it was better for him to just sit there and watch the fun.
Shen Shixu's slightly tired voice sounded, "Well, it's getting late, I'm going to rest first, you continue watching your sheep-wolf battle!"
Melons are not always available, so in order to kill time, 011 downloaded a lot of videos to pass the time.
His favorite part was the battle between sheep and wolves, watching the Gray King being played around by the sheep, but he was more interested in the story of the defenders later on.
When he was watching the battle between sheep and wolves, he saw someone else commenting that the sheep and wolves united and became defenders in the end, but he liked to watch it bit by bit, so he didn't skip any episodes.
Chen Shixu would also watch a few episodes with him before going to bed at night. He didn't have the chance to watch it before, but now he finally gets to watch it. It's really interesting.
This made Shen Shixu smile every night when he went to bed.
Chen Shixu fell asleep soon after he lay down on the bed. Xiao Jinyi and the others listened to his gentle breathing and carefully left the window one by one, for fear of making any noise that would disturb his sleep.
After returning, Xiao Jingyi and the others had a good rest for the night. The next morning, Liu Qidong arranged for someone to prepare breakfast for them.
The matter of Liuying and the others has been confirmed. All that remains is to wait for Xiao Lie to bring his men and the yamen runners on Liu Qidong's side to join forces and capture Liuying and the others.
So Shen Shixu and the others didn't have anything else to do for the time being, but Shen Shixu was not a person who could sit idle. He thought that since he was here, as the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, it should be no problem for him to take a look at the files of Pingcheng County!
So they asked Liu Qidong to get the files of Pingcheng County. Because of the recent disappearance of children, some things had piled up and they had no time to take care of them.
With Shen Shixu's help, Liu Qidong naturally would not hide anything and directly gave all the piled up files to Shen Shixu.
These files are not very difficult and can be used as a good training ground for people. It’s just a pity that Shen Shixu didn’t expect such a thing to happen in Pingcheng County, and he was in a hurry to go back to rescue Shen Zexi, so he didn’t bring Jiang Bin and Zhang Ming with him.
Otherwise, these files could be left to the two of them to handle.
When Shen Shixu was reading the files, Xiao Jinyi was accompanying him. Sometimes when he was in the mood, he would take a file and look at it.
Pingcheng County is a small county, and apart from the incident involving the remnants of Changsheng Pavilion, there are no particularly complicated cases.
Xiao Jinyi could also solve the cases. The two of them solved all the backlogged cases in less than half a day.
Liu Qidong on the side was stunned and thought to himself that no wonder the man had a higher official position than him at such a young age, he must be really capable!
It would take him at least ten days or half a month to finish processing all these files, but those two people sat there doing nothing, just looking at the files and they finished processing them all in half a day. This efficiency is really unmatched by others.
After finishing the files, Shen Shixu stood up to stretch his muscles, and smiled as he invited Xiao Jinyi who was standing next to him, "Do you want to go out for a walk together?"
When Xiao Jinyi heard this, his eyes lit up and he nodded without hesitation.
Shen Shixu and Xiao Jinyi did not disguise their appearance this time. The two tall and handsome men appeared on the bustling streets of Pingcheng County, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Not to mention the unmarried girls, even the young women who already had children looked at Shen Shixu and Xiao Jinyi with blushing cheeks.
But the two people ignored these looks and just walked around the street.
Both of them were holding some food in their hands, including fried chestnuts, bright red candied haws, and several packets of cakes wrapped in oil paper.
In addition to food, I also bought a variety of things, including crude but fragrant sachets, polished and shiny wooden hairpins, and cute fox masks...
It was a rare occasion for the two of them to go shopping, and even though they had no more room in their hands for the things they had bought, they were reluctant to go back, so they simply found a teahouse to sit down, drink tea and eat snacks while listening to the storytelling on the stage.
Coincidentally, what we are talking about today is exactly how Changsheng Pavilion was destroyed by the Wulin Alliance.
The storyteller on the stage slammed the gavel in his hand heavily and said in a rhythmic voice: "There is a sect in the martial arts world called Changsheng Pavilion. The leader of this Changsheng Pavilion is over 70 years old, but he looks like a young man in his 30s.
Everyone envies his ageless appearance, but they don't know that his ageless appearance is all blood. It is a real beautiful flower watered with blood.
And this blood was not that of ordinary people. The leader of Changsheng Pavilion believed that children's blood was the purest in the world, so he sent his men to abduct boys and girls.
Then they cruelly drained their blood and used it for medicine or other purposes.
It was impossible for such a heartless thing to go unnoticed. The leader of the Wulin League led a group of young warriors to attack the Changsheng Pavilion. The Changsheng Pavilion was torn apart by the attacks of so many talented people, and the leader of the Changsheng Pavilion was beheaded by the Wulin League. At this point, this cancer was eradicated..."
Shen Shixu was listening to the story out of boredom while eating melon seeds. Although the storyteller's words were a bit dry, the audience was very happy with them.
Many of them may not be able to leave Pingcheng County in their entire lives, and they don’t know what’s happening outside. They listen to stories just for fun, and don’t care whether they are true or false, just like the aunties at the village entrance who like to gossip about this and that.
After listening to the story, Shen Shixu felt that it was not interesting, so he and Xiao Jinyi continued to stroll outside.
The food in his arms was almost consumed because of the listening to the book just now. Shen Shixu touched his still hungry stomach and said to Xiao Jinyi: "Let's go eat alone, not with Mo Yu and the others."
Xiao Jinyi had no objection, and the two of them happily went to the restaurant to eat. There were no empty seats on the first floor, so they went to the second floor.
There happened to be an empty seat by the window, so the two of them sat there. Just as they sat down and ordered their food, they heard the sound of horse hooves coming from the street.
The two of them looked down through the window and saw that it was an acquaintance.
The person riding past on the street was none other than Xiao Lie, who was looking for someone.
