This warrior is so fierce

Chapter 288 Small Town
There are green hills beyond the mountains and flowing water.

Autumn is full of spirits, and the weeds are not withered.

The east wind does not blow the way back, and Yu Yu walks alone in the south of the city.

After climbing a few low slopes, the town is like a pearl, quietly appearing on the official road in the south of the city.

Cao Su led his subordinates into the small town.

As soon as I entered the town, I smelled a quiet and comfortable atmosphere. I crossed the stone bridge and strolled along Beizha Street and Hebutou. Three or two women beat their clothes with wooden mallets.

The tile-roofed houses are clear with stone-gray walls.

One piece after another, the neat and orderly tiles are arranged in an orderly manner on the wooden shelf, which is neither monotonous nor boring.

Xiaoshaliu River runs through the village.

On the shore, wisps of cooking smoke from the houses rose up.

In the distance, winding green hills are faintly visible.

An old man with gray hair was waiting for Cao Su and others in the town.

"Little old man, I greet you, my lords!"

The old man saw that he was not young, so he had to bow down when he came up.

Cao Su was not used to such a big man bowing down to him, so he walked over to support the old man.

Unexpectedly, the old man is a decent person, but he only made a slight false obeisance.

Before Cao Su could help him, he stood up by himself.

"Cao Baihu, this is Lizheng from Xiaotao Town, and also the head of the local Feng family."

"Old man Feng is 85 years old this year, and his body is quite strong."

Oh?
Cao Su skeptically expressed surprise.

He could clearly feel that old man Feng's energy and blood were quite strong, and he was not at all old. He thought that when he was young, he was also a martial artist in the realm of energy and blood.

However, warriors in the realm of qi and blood will not increase their lifespan much.

If you don't look old in your 80s, it means that the maintenance is really good.

This old man was so surprised to see the adults from all the families who came to God, he couldn't help showing a smug smile, but said modestly: "The small towns in the countryside are not as prosperous as the cities, but they don't have to be disturbed by the world of mortals. Life is more important." Much more relaxed and comfortable."

Speaking of this, he had a sad face.

He sighed and said, "I never thought that this kind of thing would happen. This time it really scared the people in our town. The little old man had no choice but to ask the adults of Shendu Mansion for help."

"Don't worry, old man, this is Cao Su and Cao Baihu from our Guard Division. He is a fifth-rank expert, and he can solve cases like a god. He will definitely give you a bright future."

Luo Butou, the god capital prefecture who was traveling with him, opened his mouth and introduced Cao Su.

Old Master Feng's eyes lit up immediately, and he thanked him repeatedly.

Then he led the people to the small town, and from his mouth, everyone knew the whole story.

It is said that there is a family in the town whose surname is Du, and the Du family seals off their family with them, which can be regarded as a family of family friends.

The two families have always lived in peace and harmony, and have lived in this small town for generations.

However, just the day before yesterday, the son of the Du family drowned suddenly.

This son of the Du family is now the son of the head of the Du family, and he is afraid of melting in his mouth since he was born. He is very precious.

When he became an adult, Young Master Du invited three or five friends to visit Qingxi Lake near Xiaotao Town. Unexpectedly, Young Master Du drowned in the lake.

It is said that when they were three or five friends, they were all the same age children of everyone in the town, and in the end, such a young master of the Du family died.

Now the Du family is in a turmoil, and several conflicts have broken out with the Feng family.

"The fish scales?"

Cao Su heard that the drowned person had the same characteristics as the drowned person in the capital city of God that day.

"There are also fish scales. We have already made it clear to the Du family that it must be the work of the water monster, but the Du family is bewitched. Instead of saying that we did something bad, we also said that the fish scales were made by us later. of."

Old Master Feng had a sad face, thinking that the two families are in dire straits now, which has greatly affected the safety of the town, and he couldn't help feeling sad.

"Can we see the body?"

Luo Butou is very concerned about whether the case can continue. According to what the old man Feng said, the Du family is so xenophobic and hostile to the Feng family, so they may not let them, the arresters invited by the Feng family, come in to investigate the case.

"The little old man has already put on a face, but now he doesn't have much confidence in his heart. When he arrives at Du's house in a while, he will have to see the adults!"

What old man Feng said made everyone look at each other in dismay.

To investigate a case, you always have to look at the corpse before investigating the case. If you haven't seen the corpse, what are you talking about?
Cao Su interrupted everyone's random thoughts, and said in a deep voice, "Please lead the way."

Afterwards, old man Feng led the crowd through the town.

Under the peaceful and slow town life, there seems to be a different kind of shadow hidden.

As Cao Su walked and inquired, what his eyes looked at was like thunder and lightning, and no one dared to look at him.

After arriving at Du's house, everyone saw a funeral hanging above the door of Du's house.

The crying in the house shook the sky, and howling was everywhere.

When the members of the Du family heard that the Feng family was coming, they brought people with them, and rushed out of the house one after another.

Some of the men of Du's family were holding sticks, some were holding short knives, all of them were wearing filial piety clothes, with red eyes, and surrounded Cao Su and others.

The east wind is picking up.

The town became a little more desolate, and Cao Su and his party were surrounded in front of the funeral.

But there was no panic on everyone's face.

Let alone Cao Su, even Qiu Bai and He Shan only treat each other as ordinary people.

Ordinary people with sticks, how can they have any fighting power? Even if they have practiced boxing and kicking for several years, how can they compare with the experienced arch guards in Shendu City?
"What are you going to do?"

Old Master Feng was probably afraid that the Du family would offend the big shots in Shendu City, so he took the initiative to stand up and scolded him loudly.

The men of the Du family, when they saw that the old man of the Feng family dared to bring someone to the door, they were already angry.

The head of the Du family, holding a stick in his hand, passed the stick forward, pointed at Cao Su and the others and cursed, "Don't bully others too much!"

Isn't this bullying yet?

Seeing the excited expressions of several people, Cao Su gave Qiu Bai a wink.

Qiu Bai understood, and walked up to the crowd to negotiate: "Old man, don't get excited, we are from the government of Shendu, if you have any grievances, it's okay to say it!"

A member of the government in the capital of God?

These few words woke up the angry Du family.

The Patriarch of the Du family looked intently, and saw Cao Su, the leader, wearing a white python robe.

At this moment, there was a whistling sound in the sky.

Walking alone with a sword, it seems to have fallen from the nine heavens.

The white clothes are fluttering, very chic.

The ordinary people below saw it, and they all showed shock.

I thought it was a fairy coming.

Zhou Wei circled twice above everyone's heads, then jumped off the flying sword and landed beside Cao Su.

Cao Su, who was like an iron mountain, finally attracted all the attention of the two parties.

"This is Cao Baihu, the arch guard of Shendu Mansion, a senior official of the fifth rank."

Qiu Bai was very discerning, and at the right time, he introduced Cao Su's identity.

Sure enough, the ordinary people outside the city did not have any reaction when they heard "Hundred Households", but they were greatly shocked when they heard the "Zhengwupin" officials.

All of a sudden, I felt that Cao Su's image became more glorious and taller, and his imposing manner also increased, which made people dare not look directly at him.

Cao Su took two steps forward, and said in a flat voice, "But it's okay to say."

With Cao Su's affirmation and this official protection, the Du family who surrounded them calmed down.

However, their gazes towards the old man of the Feng family were still full of hatred and resentment.

Cao Su saw it clearly, and thought deeply.

The head of the Du family is not young anymore, he is a little old man over half a century old, he put down his stick, although he is still on guard, he is willing to explain the whole story to Cao Su.

But when it came to the sad part, I couldn't help but get excited again.

The specific situation is not far from what Old Man Feng said, but the details are quite strange.

For example, although his son was stubborn by nature, he was always afraid of water because he couldn't swim. How could he run to the lake, and how could he drown in the river?

"It makes sense."

Cao Su nodded, approving the words of the head of the Du family.

Unless there are special circumstances, those who drown in the water are generally people with better water skills. Those who can't swim will subconsciously stay away from lakes and rivers, which is relatively safe.

"Also, at the children's birthday party, they obviously didn't invite the little bastard from the Feng family, why did the little bastard from the Feng family show up at the scene? The Feng family hasn't given us an explanation so far! Please be fair, sir!"

The Patriarch of the Du family looked angrily at Master Feng's family, his eyes spit fire.

The two families have actually been on fire for several times, just before Cao Su came, but the strength of the Du family was not strong enough to beat the Feng family.

"Oh?"

Cao Su turned to look at the old man of the Feng family: "Is there such a thing?"

The old man of the Feng family said helplessly: "It is true, but my daughter has always admired the young master of the Du family. Although the young master of the Du family did not invite my young daughter this time, the young girl took the initiative to give gifts and congratulate her. She is so sincere, I can't blame us on the head?"

"Admiration! Admiration? What a big joke!"

The Patriarch of the Du family was not stupid, and he cursed: "Just don't dirty our ears with your bratty shoes!"

After Cao Su heard it, he was indeed a little confused. The two families insisted on their own opinions, and it was difficult to judge.

His first impression of the old man of the Feng family was actually not bad. The old man worshiped everyone when he saw him, and he looked like a dutiful person.

And this Patriarch of the Du family has a bad temper and looks like he wants to eat people, so he is not likable.

With a business-like attitude, Cao Su calmly said: "Since this is the case, you two should stop arguing and let me take a look at the dead body. I have my own conclusion!"

Judging the case and looking at the corpse is the simplest and most straightforward thing.

However, Patriarch Du's face showed distress: "Master Cao, my son was sealed in a coffin yesterday, I'm afraid this matter will be difficult."

in such a hurry?
Cao Su frowned slightly.

After listening to what the head of the Du family said, he felt that the matter was difficult.
