It's obviously a life skill, but you developed it into a magical skill

If one day, a man came over and told Zhou An that his brother Yu Hang had beaten up a man in the industry.

He absolutely didn't believe it and even thought the other party was deceiving him.

But today, Capt. Xie came to him personally and spoke in a reasonable and serious manner, saying that this matter was serious.

Zhou An had to believe it.

But he really couldn't figure out how a weak scholar could beat up a man in the industry.

"Let's talk as we walk." Mr. Xie led the way.

Zhou An didn't ask any questions and followed all the way, and the two of them rushed towards Zhenguisi.

Along the way, Capt. Xie also told Zhou An all the truth about the matter.

It started this morning.

In the morning, Yu Hang went out to buy some food and planned to go home and make some lunch at noon.

Unexpectedly, I met a person in the industry in the vegetable market.

This person went to Yunlai Mansion to participate in the Dao Casting Competition.

This time I just passed through this small county town.

It was originally peaceful, everything was normal, and not many incidents happened.

But that person in the industry stirred up trouble.

The imperial examination was about to begin, and Yu Hang didn't miss any time to read.

Even when I was shopping for groceries, I would take out the book on my waist from time to time.

This kind of behavior is actually something we are used to in Anding County, especially around where Yu Hang lives.

Everyone knows that Yu Hang has been studying very hard recently.

But in the eyes of outsiders, this seems unusual.

When the person in the industry saw Yu Hang's appearance, he thought Yu Hang was pretending, so he said a few words.

The general meaning is that a sour scholar can pretend to be whatever he wants.

As soon as these words came out, Yu Hang immediately quit his job. Even though Yu Hang was just a little scholar, he could become a policeman and had been hanging around in the yamen for so long. His temper was not very good either.

He usually doesn't mess with others and is a low-key, good-natured guy, but he won't be afraid if others come to bully him.

So the two of them started to curse in this small street.

Yu Hang is not good at fighting, but he is not bad at swearing.

Throughout the whole scolding battle, he didn't even utter a single curse word. He was cursing in a roundabout way, making the other party angry.

The other party cursed, "It's like having a father but not a father to support you."

This sentence completely angered Yu Hang.

Yu Hang is different from Zhou An in that his parents died when he was young.

I grew up relying entirely on the support of my neighbors.

His parents are a thorn in his heart.

When the other party mentioned this, it reminded him of his previous childhood, so he couldn't help but move his hands.

What happened next was that Yu Hang beat the other party and then ran to Zhenguisi again.

"Wait a minute, let me think about it. How did he hit a person in the industry?"

Zhou An felt that the key to this matter was how Yu Hang beat up a man in the industry.

This unscientific.

Although the fantasy world does not talk about science, we still need to talk about these basic things.

When Capt. Xie heard this, the corner of his mouth immediately twitched.

When Zhou An saw this expression, he knew that things were not that simple.

It took Capt. Xie a long time to control the expression on his face and take a deep breath.

"He first sprinkled lime powder to confuse the opponent's eyes, and then used a shot to lift the vagina and legs, hitting the opponent's vitals hard."

"After doing this, he ran away and shouted, saying that he was beaten by someone, and even came to our town to suppress the evil spirits."

"The other party was beaten for no reason, and then went to Zhenguisi, but in the end he didn't dare to do anything there."

Having said this, Capt. Xie looked helpless.

"I asked him why you carry lime powder with you. He said that he was very unlucky some time ago and wanted to buy something for self-defense."

Zhou An: "..."

Good guy, these are all third-rate moves.

A scholar actually uses these dirty tricks, but they really work.

The other party thought that Yu Hang was an ordinary person, so he took it lightly. As a result, the boat capsized in the gutter.

Lime powder is a deadly thing for many masters.

Some time ago, Yu Hang was really unlucky. He encountered too many things one after another, so it was normal to bring some self-defense items, but he didn't expect to use them at this time.

"Did I go to get him?" Zhou An asked, "How did you deal with it?"

Xie Captou shook his head and said: "Originally, Yu Hang took action on this matter first, so it's his fault. After all, it's always a bad idea to take action."

"The other party had no intention of relenting, but then somehow, Magistrate Wu seemed to have heard the news, so he ran over and pulled the man aside, and the man suddenly relented."

"That person said that he will not hold Yu Hang responsible for anything, as long as you go there."

Zhou An frowned when he heard this.

What on earth is this guy Wu Youde doing?

"Don't worry, there's nothing serious about this matter. That person doesn't seem to want to pursue it at all, he's just very excited." Capt. Xie explained again.

Although they said they were worried about Zhou An's concerns, in fact they were the ones who had concerns.

They know Zhou An's temper very well.

If this guy disagrees, he can cut the other person into dumpling stuffing.

Which of the enemies you encountered at the beginning was complete?

Even if Wu Zuo saw it, he would have to go out and vomit for a while.

So when Captain Xie came, Zhou An was mentally prepared.

The two said no more and soon arrived at Zhenguisi.

Zhou An hasn't been here for a long time, and he's not used to it this time.

Captain Xie led him directly to the location of Zhangsi County.

At this moment, Zhang Sixian was sitting in the room, drinking tea calmly.

On the other side of the room were Yu Hang and Magistrate Wu.

As for the two people, there was an ordinary young man.

The young man's face was still bruised, and his eyes were red and bloodshot.

He had obviously been injured by something.

Before Zhou An could walk in, he heard the sounds inside.

"Brother Yu, don't worry. I have already settled this matter. As long as Brother Zhou comes here, everything will be solved."

Wu Youde is still talking.

When he came here this time, he actually had a sense of flattery.

After hearing about Yu Hang's incident, he rushed over immediately, wanting to settle the matter and leave a good impression on Zhou An.

After all, the conflicts that occurred before were just minor conflicts anyway.

As long as he solves this matter, he will naturally be able to let Zhou An breathe a sigh of relief.

In this case, Zhou An will not be offended.

His usual shrewdness is actually used in interpersonal communication a lot of the time.

For him, he has less time to study, but his chances of promotion are also gradually increasing.

The man whose eyes were sprinkled with lime powder did not speak, but his face was extremely gloomy, as if he had been greatly humiliated.

But it happened that it didn't happen.

Zhang Sixian looked at Wu Youde's appearance and laughed secretly.

He knew that Wu Youde must have discovered Zhou An's abnormality, otherwise he would never act like this.

But he didn't make it clear either.

After all, he was unhappy with this person.

After arriving in the county seat, they even had to check the household registration of their town.

The Suppressing Spies would not be managed by other people, so if he came to investigate, it would be a slap in the face.

Therefore, Zhang Si County himself did not have a good impression of Wu Youde.

At this time, everyone also heard footsteps. Looking at the source of the footsteps, they saw Zhou An walking in.

Zhou An glanced at Wu Youde strangely, wondering what medicine this guy was selling in his gourd.

Zhang Sixian said hello, gave Zhou An a cup of tea, and poured another cup for Xie Captou.

This action made Wu Youde deepen his suspicion.

He knew that there must be a relationship between Zhou An and Zhen Guisi.

It was at this moment that Wu Youde believed that Zhou An's background was even more mysterious and complicated.

Zhou An took a sip, looked at the people in the trade who were injured by Yu Hang, and was about to speak.

Before he could say anything, Wu Youde started to explain.

"Brother Zhou, don't worry. This matter has almost been resolved. I have tried my best to handle it. We had a little conflict before. I hope we can take this opportunity to resolve it. It can also be regarded as my help to Brother Zhou."

Wu Youde acted very sincerely. If he hadn't known what Wu Youde had thought before, he would have really believed it.

Of course, as the saying goes, don’t hit someone with a smiling face.

Zhou An didn't pay attention to him, and just said lightly: "Then this matter will trouble Mr. Wu. I will take him away first. Yu Hang, aren't you coming with me now?"

Yu Hang stood up.

During the whole process, Yu Hang didn't hesitate at all, and he obviously recognized and trusted his new brother.

But before he could take two steps, the young man next to him stood up.

"Wait a minute, you can't leave now."

Zhou An looked at this young man and frowned: "What is your surname?"

"My name is Long Xing, and I am a member of the Casting Path." Long Xing said with a pair of red eyes.

Zhou An organized his speech and said: "It is indeed wrong for my brother to take action on this matter. If you need compensation, we are willing to bear it. If you need treatment, we are also willing to send you for treatment."

"And your Excellency has said that this matter will not be pursued any further. If there are any other requirements, we will do our best to meet them."

He said it neither condescendingly nor arrogantly.

In fact, Zhou An is a ruthless person to others, but he is very principled himself.

Right or wrong, he has his own scale.

If you make a mistake in this matter, you will have to bear the consequences.

If he is right, and the other party wants to use this as a blackmail, then he doesn't mind staying with him to the end.

In the final analysis, two people scolding is enough.

But Yu Hang took action first, and this matter is confirmed.

Therefore, if Zhou An is willing to bear these things, he will pay the compensation as long as it is within the laws of the Great Chu State.

When Long Xing heard this, he shook his head: "I don't want your compensation. I heard Master Wu say that you are a master of casting, so I want to ask for advice."

Zhou An looked at Wu Youde.

Wu Youde quickly explained: "That's it, Brother Zhou, I told this brother that we are all casting people, so if you have anything to say, you can talk it over."

"Besides, you are still an expert. Maybe sometimes, everyone can help."

"Then this brother said that he could meet and ask for advice on the art of casting, so that he would not pursue it further."

Wu Youde felt that there was nothing wrong with him doing this, and he could help Zhou An solve the problem, and also let Zhou An show off his skills, and the solution was also very simple.

Zhang Sixian next to him couldn't help but become happy when he heard this.

Wu Youde asked strangely: "Master Zhang, why are you so happy?"

"It's nothing, I suddenly thought of something happy." Zhang Sixian waved his hand.

Anyone who is familiar with Zhou An knows that Zhou An is very low-key and doesn't want to do anything high-profile.

But Wu Youde's solution made it impossible for Zhou An to keep a low profile.

In fact, this method would have been correct if it had been anyone else, but it was Zhou An.

He didn't want to explain. It would be useless to explain at this time.

Zhou An touched his chin.

He was thinking about putting Wu Youde in a sack when it was dark and stormy.

This guy just did something stupid.

By this time, Zhou An also knew what Wu Youde meant, which was to resolve the conflict between the two parties, but this method of resolution was not reliable at all.

"I'm not interested in casting. I just have some fun when I'm bored. If you want to ask me about this, I don't have time. Why don't we just talk about compensation." Zhou And said.

Long Xing shook his head and said: "I don't want compensation, I just want to compete with you. We can go to the blacksmith shop."

"Those who forge the Tao are the ones who face difficulties. We experience the burning of the flames and the complicated and boring tempering."

"If you meet a master and don't challenge him, it will be very boring."

Zhou An said calmly: "According to the rules, compensation is enough."

He was too lazy to say anything more, but turned his attention to Zhangsi County.

This means, ask how much the compensation will be.

Zhang Sixian coughed and said: "The injury is not serious. With the physique of people in this industry, it is not a big deal to suffer these injuries. It's just a matter of compensation."

This statement was a bit biased towards Zhou An, but it was still following the procedure, at least not biased in terms of the law.

Long Xing still shook his head: "I still don't accept compensation."

"It's not your business whether you accept it or not. I also act in accordance with the law." Zhou An said: "Yu Hang, let's go. You can tell me about compensation when the time comes."

If you don't accept something that can obviously be done according to the law, then there's nothing I can do about it.

Whatever the law stipulates, then do it.

"Master Wu, I hope you will give it full consideration before doing these things next time." Zhou An said again.

Wu Youde was stunned.

He couldn't understand at all what he had done wrong this time. He always felt that Zhou An was very angry.

Zhou An wanted to leave with Yu Hang, but before he could take two steps, Long Xing's voice came out again.

"If you don't compete with me, when you get to Yunlai Mansion, I will make a big announcement and say that there is a master in Anding County who did not participate in the Casting Competition."

Zhou An stopped, turned around and said, "Actually, I'm very confused, what is your purpose of doing this? What can you gain?"

Long Xing raised his head proudly: "My master is also a master of casting, and he has some prestige in this circle. My master said that when you meet a master and challenge him freely, you can grow further."

"Shabi." Zhou An said calmly.
