Back Off, Let Me Come

"Master, this little friend is..."

The Sheriff forced an ugly smile.

Although today is different from the past, when I saw this former seat owner, I still couldn't help but tremble in my legs, my mouth was dry, my heart was flustered and I was short of breath.

The honored guest, who was called the "Master of the Seat," followed the governor's gaze and looked at Ayan. A warm color flashed deep in his eyes. He gently touched the top of his head with his rough and chapped palms and said warmly: "His nickname is 'Ayan'. "

Hearing the teacher calling him, Ayan took his attention away from the sandwich pastry, blinked, and looked at the teacher blankly, as if asking him what he was calling him for. The old man smiled and pointed in the direction of the county guard and replied: "I'm not calling you, it's just that your senior brother is curious."

Ayan tilted his head, looked at the county guard, then at the old man, and finally at the sandwich cakes on the plate, frowning lightly.

The old man had lived with Ayan for two years and had more or less figured out his way of thinking. He said, "Your senior brother doesn't like these desserts, and I don't like them either, so these are all yours, no need to divide them."

When the county guard heard the address, he secretly twitched his lips.

Calling the old man "Master" was just a reminder of his past friendship. He didn't expect that the old man would climb up the pole and even get him a cheap junior brother. Speaking of "junior brother", he vaguely felt that the child named "Ayan" was not very smart.

At least, he is not as clever as ordinary children.

The county guard showed appropriate concern.

"Lord, Junior Brother, is he here?"

He pointed to his brain, mentally impaired?

"Ayan is very good!"

Talking about Ayan, the old man's demeanor suddenly changed, and the fierceness and oppression of the past could even be vaguely seen in the vicissitudes of his brows, which made the county governor feel on pins and needles. At the same time, he secretly despised himself for not living up to expectations. The old guy in front of him was already declining, so what was there to be afraid of?

The so-called forcefulness seemed to be just his illusion. When the old man looked at Ayan, there was infinite pity in his eyes. He sighed deeply and touched Ayan's bun: "He just has a hard life. He has had brain disease since he was born, which makes his mind very different from that of ordinary children."

Sheriff: "???"

For a moment, he thought there was something wrong with his ears.

He, the seat owner, said who was born with a brain disease?

"But, this child is not..."

Whose child with a brain disease can muster the courage and innate supernatural power at the age of six to cut off an adult man's leg with a spear?

That unlucky Si Yan is still lying in the servant's courtyard.

The old man knew what he was going to say, and said without comment: "Although Ayan has a brain disease, he is not stupid, he just has a mental problem. He can learn everything he needs to learn, and he has no problem understanding it. In addition, he has the ability to practice martial arts. Excellent, it is not surprising to gather courage."

Even because of his mental state, he is more focused and hardworking than normal people. As long as it is a cultivation task ordered by the old man, he never complains and will not be lazy.

The old man doesn't like others to look at Ah Yan with strange eyes.

Especially people with whom he had a somewhat master-disciple relationship - such as this county guard. Because, this only proves that the normal student he once was was not as good as A Yan, who has a brain disease.

The sheriff twitched the corner of his mouth: "..."

He carefully selected the flattering words and said: "Is there a difference in mind? It's hard to tell. Junior brother's talent is among the best in the world. However, the world is turbid now. If junior brother can always maintain this innocent heart, it will be better." It's a blessing in disguise. It's better than learning a skill but being reduced to a powerless dog."

Based on his understanding of this host, Ayan is probably his current villain, and he can only praise but not expose his shortcomings. After all, how could an old student like him, who was neither young nor fresh, compare with a "new student" who was only six years old, well-behaved, well-behaved, filial, obedient and cute?

The county guard praised Ayan and congratulated his master on his new disciple. After a brief exchange of greetings, he quietly inquired about the old man's purpose.

But his little skill was not enough in the eyes of the old man. When he saw the old man's see-through eyes, the county guard felt terrified from the bottom of his heart.

I think back then, the old man was also a man of great influence in the court. It is not an exaggeration to describe him as a man of influence at that time. The leader of Xin State was able to secure the throne and once made Xin State stand out among the northwest countries. The leader also made great efforts.

It is a pity that he had a smooth official career in his life, but at the end of his career, he had an embarrassing and disgraceful exit. He had an ugly quarrel with the leader of the Xin Kingdom, and it was hard to see that all officials in his line were ordered to suppress him.

Of course, excluding the county guard who was already emerging at that time, because he held the right thigh and continued to rise all the way up.

The old man was so angry that he resigned from his post and was said to have lived in seclusion in the countryside.

When the leader of the Xin Kingdom was suppressed by Zheng Qiao's army, he also spent a lot of effort to find the whereabouts of the old man, but to no avail until the Xin Kingdom was destroyed. The county guard thought he died in the chaos of war, but he didn't expect that this old guy was still alive and suddenly came to visit today.

It was a troubled autumn, and the county governor was worried - the owner and his children were living in poverty, so he hoped that they were here to fight the autumn wind, and he could spend his money with them. If there are other purposes, the sheriff will have a headache. After all, killing a teacher is not a good reputation.

After a bit of insinuating——

His hanging heart slowly fell to the ground.

It turned out that the old man was being hunted by unknown forces and was desperate. He didn't care, but he couldn't harm the innocent Ayan, so he was ready to find another way out and came all the way to Sibao County.

After listening to the sheriff, his heart became alive.

He laughed while listening.

The "unknown force" is probably not related to Zheng Qiao. Even if Zheng Qiao doesn't think of this enemy for the time being, Zheng Qiao's bad legs may not be the case - after all, the one who scolded Zheng Qiao the most was Yushitai. Sir, Yushi Zhongcheng, and the other is the outgoing head of the throne, who can be called the two loudmouth kings of the Xin Kingdom.

The censor Zhongcheng cursed people, but at least he still had a fig leaf to cover up "official business". The host directly bombarded Zheng Qiao and the head of the Xin Kingdom together indiscriminately. In front of the leader of the Xin Kingdom, he greeted Zheng Qiao with all kinds of vulgar words. Just picking a sentence can make the experienced sister blush and snicker. The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty were not surprised.

It even feels like it should be.

The elegance and easy-goingness of a scholar cannot be seen in him.

In the early years, this leader dared to negotiate with the enemy at the border. He talked about being able to pick up a low table and smash the enemy's head to bleed. After being annoyed, he actually led his troops to attack the small northwest country. This also resulted in the capital being filled with protons sent by various forces, and the inner court of the Lord of Xin being filled with prostitutes sent by various small countries.

That Chu Ji from Chu State...

Seems like the last "trophy"?

It is said that this man contributed to the disintegration of the Three Heroes of the Chu Kingdom. He has a strong record. No wonder the county guard is so frightened - even though this old lion is already in his twilight years and his teeth are too loose to bite prey, he is the king of beasts. The residual power is still there.

Zheng Qiao didn't think of seeking revenge for the moment.

But that may not be the case with Zheng Qiao's dog-legs.

The Sheriff is naturally one of the dog legs.

However, he didn't dare to attack his own boss.

He entertained them with good food and drinks, treating the two of them as poor relatives who came to enjoy the autumn breeze. After the banquet was over, he ordered his servants to withdraw two hundred taels of gold from the warehouse and send them to the guest house. The old man opened the red silk and looked at the plate of gold ingots that was served, his eyebrows slightly raised.

阍(hūn) dog: watchdog.

Seat Master: The titles like "Tian Master" and "Zhao Master" that Qi Shan called before are similar, but the age is different. It is the honorific title given by students of a certain class to the examiner of that class.

PS: As expected, I had a cold for two days. I woke up this morning with tonsillitis and a sore throat. I went to prescribe anti-inflammatory medicine before I had a fever. Otherwise, if you have a fever, you have to go for a nucleic acid test|ω｀)
