Chapter 125 Fan Wujiu, Xie Bian

Zhang Fulong took Shen Ziyi away from the Shen family.

When leaving home, Shen Anyi prepared many things for Zhang Fulong and Shen Ziyi to use on the road.

Shen Anyi was very thoughtful, but Zhang Fulong refused all of them. He asked for a horse and took Shen Ziyi on the road.

This horse was reserved for Shen Ziyi. Shen Ziyi was still young and needed a leg to carry him.

When Shen Ziyi learned that Zhang Fulong was going to take him away from home, Shen Ziyi was extremely happy.

This was the first time Shen Ziyi had left home since he grew up.

Before, his parents didn't let him go out, fearing that he would get into trouble outside, so they kept him by their side.

When he encountered something he had never seen on the road, he felt it was very novel in his heart, and he would stop to look at it for a long time, and sometimes he would ask Zhang Fulong what it was.

When dusk fell and he had to camp in the wild and eat dry food, Shen Ziyi suddenly became uncomfortable and began to miss the days at home.

If he were at home, he would be eating his favorite food and sleeping on his big soft bed.

At this moment, Shen Ziyi wanted to say to Zhang Fulong, "Teacher, life here is too difficult, why don't we go back?"

But when the words came to his lips, Shen Ziyi couldn't say it.

Zhang Fulong saw what Shen Ziyi was thinking, and he said to Shen Ziyi: "Ziyi, the teacher also had a disciple before, who was a little older than you."

"Really? Teacher, can you tell me the story of your senior brother?"

Shen Ziyi didn't expect that Zhang Fulong had another disciple, and he became curious.

"The first time we met, his father took the initiative to come to me and asked me to accept him as a disciple..."

Zhang Fulong was talking about Liu Shuo. In a real sense, Liu Shuo was his first disciple, and Han Li was the second.

Zhang Fulong told Shen Ziyi about Liu Shuo accompanying him on a three thousand li journey.

After listening to Liu Shuo's experience with his teacher, Shen Ziyi, who was originally curious, suddenly became silent, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The next day, the master and the apprentice continued on their journey. This time, Shen Ziyi refused to ride and told Zhang Fulong that he wanted to walk.

After hearing Shen Ziyi's words, Zhang Fulong smiled knowingly. He thought that Shen Ziyi must have been stimulated by what he said last night.

It seems that Shen Ziyi is also a person with a strong self-esteem. He doesn't want to be compared with Liu Shuo.

Liu Shuo can do it, and so can Shen Ziyi.

In this regard, Zhang Fulong didn't say anything and let Shen Ziyi follow him on the road.

However, Shen Ziyi was too young after all, and he couldn't walk after walking for a while.

At this time, Zhang Fulong carried him on the horse's back and let the horse carry him forward.

At first, Shen Ziyi didn't agree, but Zhang Fulong comforted him and said that you are still young, and it is very good to be able to do this.

Later, Zhang Fulong also told Shen Ziyi that he was different from Liu Shuo. Liu Shuo had his mission and he had to go through this test.

Shen Ziyi was different. Zhang Fulong brought him out, to put it bluntly, to refine his heart and become a Qi Refiner as soon as possible.

Zhang Fulong mentioned Liu Shuo to Shen Ziyi because he had no other excessive requirements, as long as Shen Ziyi learned to be self-reliant and did not rely on others for everything.

People, after all, have to grow up.

The two walked for several days and the master and apprentice came to Shangxin City.

When they arrived in the city, the first thing they did was to eat.

Zhang Fulong took Shen Ziyi to a food stall and asked for two servings of mixed noodles.

In the past, Shen Ziyi would not eat this, but now it is different from the past. After eating dry food for several days in a row, Shen Ziyi ate this bowl of mixed noodles quite comfortably.

"Lao Zhang, your cooking skills are getting better and better. The two brothers left after eating. The meal money will be recorded in the account first and settled together next time."

Sitting at the other end of the master and apprentice were two men wearing the clothes of the constables, one fat and one thin.

The man who just spoke was the fat man, and his mouth was still full of oil without wiping it clean.

It can be seen that he just ate very deliciously.

Lao Zhang, should be the stall owner's name, I didn't expect the stall owner and Zhang Fulong to have the same surname, it seems that they are destined.

Hearing the fat man's words, the stall owner was not angry, but said happily:

"Okay, you two take care, remember to come tomorrow, the old man will take care of you."

The fat and thin men did not reply to the stall owner's words, and left the stall directly, looking very arrogant.

Shen Ziyi also noticed the two people, so he asked Zhang Fulong: "Teacher, are they eating a free meal?"

It should be, otherwise how could the two eat without paying, and say that they would pay next time, which is completely nonsense.

If there is anyone who comes to pay after the meal, it will not be these two people.

I didn't see the scene of the two people leaving, and I was very arrogant, as if someone owed them a lot of money.

Anyway, Shen Ziyi was not happy, but I didn't know why the stall owner still looked happy, which made Shen Ziyi very confused.

"Little kid, don't talk nonsense. It's my blessing that Captain Fan and Captain Xie can come to eat at my place. Don't talk about whether it's a free meal or not."

Perhaps the stall owner heard what Shen Ziyi said. Before Zhang Fulong spoke, the stall owner took the initiative to come forward and talk to the master and apprentice.

Zhang Fulong could see from the stall owner's eyes that the stall owner really welcomed the fat and thin men to come, instead of flattering on the surface and spitting and cursing behind their backs.

This is a bit interesting. Eating a free meal can make the store owner grateful. There must be some deep meaning in it.

Zhang Fulong asked: "My master and apprentice have just arrived in Shangxincheng and are not familiar with this place. Can the store owner tell us in detail?"

The stall owner glanced at Zhang Fulong and then nodded.

He just reminded Shen Ziyi not to talk nonsense because he saw that Zhang Fulong and his apprentice had just arrived in Shangxincheng.

Otherwise, he would have overturned the table and asked the apprentice to get out.

Anyway, no one came to eat at this time, and the stall owner was free, so he told Zhang Fulong and his apprentice about the deeds of the fat and thin men.

The fat constable just now was called Fan Wujiu, and the thin constable was called Xie Bian. Both of them were the heads of the constables in Shangxincheng, and they were a pair of good brothers.

Don't look at the brothers who are usually arrogant and unpopular.

In fact, the brothers are very kind.

The brothers have been doing things impartially during the years they have been constables in Shangxincheng.

What does it mean to do things impartially? It is the four big words on the plaque of the government office.

Aboveboard.

The brothers did not go along with the gentry to deal with the common people together.

In the eyes of the brothers, there is only who is right and who is wrong.

Whoever did something wrong and violated the rules would be punished, no matter who you are.

That’s why the two brothers offended most of the gentlemen in Shangxincheng.

The same thing happened to the previous county magistrate.

The previous county magistrate was Gounizi, who wanted to curry favor with the gentlemen in Shangxincheng and help them deal with the common people, but was killed by the two brothers.

I thought the higher-ups would hold the brothers accountable, but they didn’t, and the matter was left unresolved.
