Throughout history, both in China and abroad, human beings have always lacked one quality - curiosity.
When Su Rui put away his sword and picked up the dagger dropped by the green-skinned leader, he found that he was surrounded by a crowd of onlookers.
When the onlookers saw Qingpi being beaten, many of them applauded and cheered.
But people seem to be more curious about Suri's identity.
"Whose son is this boy with extraordinary skills?" someone asked.
"You have no vision. This is Erlang from County Magistrate Su's family! Can the son of a county magistrate be the same as that of an ordinary citizen?" someone answered.
Su Rui looked at the noisy and pointing crowd and felt like he was being watched like a monkey, so he ran away immediately.
He made up his mind that he must wear a mask before fighting in the future.
After finally escaping from the crowd, Su Rui ordered his servants to return to the county government office and ask the officers to come and deal with the aftermath. Then he took Wu Qianqian and Xiao Shitou into the restaurant, found an empty table and sat down. He ordered some tea and snacks for the two to fill their stomachs first, and then asked about the cause of the incident.
Little Shitou's real name was Shi Yi, the child of Captain Wu's neighbor. Shi Yi's father had gone hunting in the mountains while his mother was pregnant with him, and he never came back. His mother died of overwork when he was three, leaving him and his mother-in-law to survive, or perhaps more accurately, to survive. His healthy upbringing depended entirely on the support of his neighbors. Two years prior, his mother-in-law, to whom he had always depended, passed away, leaving him an orphan.
Captain Wu's mother was quite fond of him and would often call him home to provide him with soup and rice. Although he was young, he knew how to please the elderly. Whenever he came to Captain Wu's house to eat, he would sometimes bring fish, sometimes some wild fruits, but he would never come empty-handed.
Taking pity on his background and seeing that he was loyal and filial, Captain Wu accepted him as his apprentice, which gave him some guarantee of survival. Otherwise, as an orphan, he would have become a beggar. Seeing that he was still young, Captain Wu also found him a job as a schoolboy at the county school, allowing him to read more books after work.
But after going to the county school, he didn't study well but got a lot of bandit spirit. Not only did he hang out with the poor students in the county school, but recently he also started to fight for territory with the young guys.
Captain Wu was very angry about his recent behavior and never treated him well.
This morning he brought Wu Qianqian to see the "kingdom" he had built, but unexpectedly they were ambushed by this group of young men!
Shi Yi, aged eleven or twelve, wasn't particularly tall, but perhaps thanks to his recent training with Constable Wu, he was quite sturdy. His hidden weapon skills were comparable to Constable Wu's. In a one-on-one fight, a thirteen or fourteen-year-old Qingpi was no match for him. Today, he was beaten badly because of the sheer number of opponents.
Wu Qianqian was also implicated. If Su Rui hadn't intervened in time, the consequences would have been disastrous. Even so, it was difficult for him to explain to Captain Wu what had happened.
So, even though the young men were dealt with by Su Rui, he still looked depressed.
It is worth mentioning that although he knew Su Rui's identity as a noble, he showed no sign of asking him for help, which shows his responsibility.
If you do something wrong, you will be punished!
This is the law. Otherwise, without rules, even greater disasters will inevitably arise.
Su Rui did not comfort him, but asked him curiously where the "kingdom" he had conquered was.
Although Shi Yi was unhappy, it was obvious that he also wanted to show off his achievements in front of Su Rui, so he proposed to take Su Rui and Wu Qianqian out for an "inspection".
After Su Rui had a fight with the young men, he came up with a plan and was about to use his territory, so he readily accepted his invitation.
The three of them devoured the remaining cakes and walked out of the restaurant after Su Rui put down the silver to pay the bill.
As for the young people, Su Rui believed that County Magistrate Su would educate them well.
Shi Yi took Su Rui and walked along the wild river for a while back to the way Su Rui came. They stopped beside a riverbank covered with overgrown weeds and weeds.
He reached out and pushed aside the weeds that blocked his view, pointed at the wild river with duckweed floating on the surface, and said proudly, "This half-mile stretch of river is the kingdom I conquered with my fists!"
Looking at the wild river, Su Rui was speechless for a long time, thinking: "What is there to fight for in this wasteland and wild river?"
"This isn't a great place to go fishing, but it is!" Wu Qianqian was very happy and ran to the river to look around.
"Hey~, it's a bit desolate, but it's still a base!" Su Rui sighed and comforted himself.
Since he pointed his sword at Qingpi, he decided to use the evil forces in the entire county as a touchstone to hone his sword skills, of course anonymously, and he planned to use this as a base for future operations.
Although fighting crime and eliminating evil was the job of his original father, Magistrate Su, but as a young master with the ambition of a knight, he felt that this was also his responsibility!
He felt that there was no one more suitable to test his sword skills than someone who could both practice sword skills and do things!
Of course, he had no intention of giving away his life. He still had to eat one bite at a time, and his plan had to start with the weakest member of the evil gang, Qingpi!
"Shi Tou, what's the name of the gang you joined?"
Su Rui asked as he approached his two companions who were "giving advice".
"Gang? I haven't joined any gang. My master once said that if I dare to join any gang, he would break my legs!" Shi Yi responded after hearing this.
"Don't call him Shitou, call him senior brother..." Wu Qianqian corrected him seriously.
"How about we form a gang? Just the three of us. As long as we don't tell anyone, Teacher Wu won't know!" Su Rui suggested.
"Okay, I want to be the gang leader!" It was Wu Qianqian who agreed first.
