When Geng Qing woke up in a daze, it was already the next morning. The thin mist on the street dissipated, and vendors set up stove tables and benches on the street in the rising hustle and bustle.

Soon, the store that opened the door came over and drove Geng Qing up. He was not annoyed when facing the scolding. He smiled and cleaned up the bedding. The woman beside him had already left before he woke up.

‘You really just leave.’

Geng Qing touched the wall. He didn't know if the woman did what she did to him last night, or she suffered a little cold. He felt a little drowsy and sore all over. As soon as he got together, something fell to the ground. The black sheath and the brass-cast shank were the daggers that the woman often used. The wall he supported was also a string of beautiful and small marks.

——Thank you for helping each other twice, and I will give you a dagger to defend yourself.

‘Tsk tsk…it’s not a token of love, is it?’

After picking up the dagger and playing with it for a while, Geng Qing chuckled and put it in his arms, held the quilt, and searched for a pawn shop on the street. After all, he tried to pay for fifteen cents, he went to the nearby alley to find a well. He looked at the door of the woman who was getting up early to buy groceries and talked, and held the clean water that others had picked up and washed up.

He glanced at the woman who had been surrounding the other side and was chatting.

"Last night, you heard it, oh, I'm catching assassins again. Why are these assassins so brave?"

"Who said no, my servant saw it with his own eyes. He went to the widow's house next door to help. As soon as it was dark, the roof started to fight. Seeing that it was a woman, he flew over my servant, landed on the roof of the courtyard gate, and jumped onto the street. He couldn't die."

"The people in the martial arts world are always high, so they must have martial arts. But I heard that the assassin hid in the county lieutenant's house, pretended to be a maid, and injured the county lieutenant's hand. He was beaten away by a boy."

"Young man, is it An Sibing? Even the big insects were beaten. Can a female assassin beat him? If you have the life to escape, you will be lucky."

.........

The slightest words of Shijing, coupled with the situation when Geng Qing met the woman last night, probably because he had restored what happened. He actually got into the county magistrate's house for assassination. He was so bold.

He casually pulled a child who wanted to look into the well. A woman who was talking there was so scared that she turned her head, pulled the child and scolded her, and patted her butt hard.

As the child cried, the woman hurriedly thanked Geng Qing. The latter waved his hand with a smile, then walked out of the alley and bought a hot cake on the street, held it in his hand and blew it while eating it, and rushed to the county government.

The county yard seemed busy than yesterday and went up the steps. Geng Qing took out the note given by the county magistrate from his arms and handed it to the yamen runner at the door. The other party took it and looked at the young man in front of him with a smile on his face.

"Brother Xie, I will inform you of the county magistrate. You can wait outside for a while."

"Have you been working!"

Geng Qing bowed his hand, smiled at another officer, retreated to the nearby wait for Tian Qi to take it out, and from time to time he talked to another officer to make some family matters. The officer who was talking suddenly turned up, turned his face, stood straight, and lowered his voice: "Get out quickly, the county magistrate is here."

The sound of horse hooves came over on the street. Geng Qing took a few steps back. In the direction he looked, the sound of horse hooves stopped at the county government gate. On the horse's back, the county magistrate lifted his cloak and turned over, which made Jiaye sound a whistle sound. He turned his face, with a square face and wide mouth, a trace of fierceness in his long eyebrows and thin eyes, and a tug of beard on his chin, which swung his chest with his feet.

He walked up the stone steps and glanced at Geng Qing who was standing nearby, and called on the officers beside the door, and his voice was stern: "Who is this? He drove him away if he had nothing to do. How can he stay in the yamen at will?"

The officer was trained to lower his head, hesitating and trying to speak, but Geng Qing stepped forward first and raised his hand with a smile.

"Qi Bi County lieutenant, the youngest Niujiaji Gengjia Village, came to the yamen to change Tian Qi. In fact, the youngest had seen you before, and that day, the assassin was on the street. The youngest and a few villagers were right in front of a rice shop. Watching the county lieutenant wave a knife on the horse's back, it was so majestic. The assassin fled in a panic."

hehe......

The county magistrate was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, and then heard the "very mighty and beat the assassin to flee in a panic" and he smiled with his long beard. The gloom of being attacked by the assassin these days made him feel unhappy. If someone around him said this, he would slap over with a big ear, but the people in front of him said it, and the feeling was different.

"Haha, don't worry, fellow villagers, but you don't have to worry about those who hide their heads and tails. I will soon arrest this assassin."

After saying that, he stopped talking and led his soldiers into the yamen with laughter. The officer standing next to him glanced at him and bowed to Geng Qing to thank him for help in rescuing the siege.

"If you have any thanks, can you help me?"

While speaking, footsteps sounded inside the door. Four yamen runners and a long-distance official from Zhan Qing carried out a large stack of documents. There was also a man behind him, wearing brown close-fitting leather armor, a horizontal knife at his waist, and crossing the threshold with black shoes. When he saw Geng Qing, he seemed a little unhappy, but he just asked the yamen runner to pull the brown-yellow horse with a bow and arrow and turned over.

"Get out of the city quickly and come back before dark."

He took a long spear and waved it away, greeted the yamen runners and officials carrying the documents, urged the horse to step out of his hooves and turn to the street intersection.

The yamen runner at the door saw that the young man at the door was still standing still, and hurried over and urged: "Why are you still standing there? Come and keep up, the county master is specifically asking An Sibing to escort you back."

"Oh, thank you."

After reacting, Geng Qing quickly chased after him, looking at the young man on the horse's back with a calm expression. He probably understood that the other party was not happy with this job, and his eyes turned around in his sockets. He quickly caught up with him and leaned to the side and arched his hand towards the figure on the horse's back.

"Are An Sibing unhappy?"

"Stycoons." The young man glanced at Geng Qing with a smile on his face, turned his gaze back, not wanting to talk to him, and the latter was not angry, but just smiled and said, "I have no money in my body, no one in the land, and no one has the martial arts skills of the soldiers, so I have to live by just one mouth."

An Jingsi didn't speak, and continued to move forward with the reins, crossed the bustling streets and alleys of the city, and after leaving the city gate, he suddenly spoke in the sound of horse hooves of "stepped on...". "How did you get the rich man Liu fifty taels? What are these land deeds to be used for?"

The sun rose into the clouds, shining goldenly on his face, Geng Qing looked at the half-wheeled sun on the other end of the mountain with a smile.

The trick of Li Zheng was deceived into making a deposit and bringing the county magistrate closer... and finished step by step, the game of chess finally reached the last step, beating the mountain drum, shaking hundreds of beasts, and killing the game!

"You will know when An Sibing arrives in Gengjia Village."

He smiled and said softly.

*******

"Beat the drum——"
