Chapter 103: Suppressing the trickster in trouble

 “Is it really...useless?”

Yu Hang kept chanting these words.

  I don’t know what I’m thinking.

 …

the other side.

 After several days of long journey, Zhou An and Qi Shuo finally arrived at Yunlai Mansion.

 The carriage was moving along the wide streets of Yunlai Mansion.

Zhou An lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the wide and neat streets outside, as well as the bustling pedestrians on both sides of the streets, and thought of the situation in Anding County.

 He felt that there was a world of difference between the two.

 Anding County is a small county, and it is a remote small county with a low population density.

 So only when it’s busy can there be so many people.

 But Yunlai Mansion is different. The location here is not remote, and the area is vast. Naturally, even at this time, there are still many pedestrians passing by.

“Brother Zhou rarely comes to Yunlai Mansion?” Qi Shuo is a shrewd man. When he saw this scene, he asked with a smile.

Since the last time at the inn, Zhou An chopped the stitches into pieces with a knife, Qi Shuo has always maintained a sense of awe towards Zhou An.

He has always thought that if he had Zhou An's strength, he would never be willing to live in a small county town, but Zhou An did it.

He thought of what an old man in the Chamber of Commerce once said, and it was very appropriate when applied to Zhou An.

 —Extremely talented, only seeking five points of fame and fortune to live comfortably.

Qi Shuo feels that Zhou An is a very smart person.

 Especially those who are smart and powerful are worthy of respect.

 Zhou An put down his hands and let the curtain cover the carriage.

“Brother Qi, what are your plans next?”

Qi Shuo also knew that Zhou An's friend had been kidnapped, and he was in no mood to talk to him.

So he no longer had a chatty tone, but said very seriously.

"Brother Zhou, come with me to Yunlai Mansion to register first, and then go to my residence here. You can live there from now on. There is still some time before the casting competition. I can't let Brother Zhou stay in the inn and spread the word. Our Hengtong Chamber of Commerce has a bad reputation.”

 Here in Yunlai Mansion, there is a property bought by Qi Shuo.

The merchants of the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce may be a little weak in terms of force, but they really have a lot of money.

 Buy a house here, it doesn’t have to be too big, it’s still big enough for Qi Shuo to live in.

Although Qi Shuo is a businessman, he is extremely insecure, so he buys good properties wherever he goes.

 In these days, what does it matter no matter how rich you are?

 There is no strength and no sense of security.

Zhou An nodded.

 The carriage continued to move forward, and soon it arrived at the government office of Yunlai Mansion.

 The government office is naturally more lively than the county government office. There are even several more policemen on duty at the door.

 When the carriage stopped at the gate of the government office, Zhou An got off the carriage.

 Registration for the Dao Casting Competition is held in the government office.

At this time, there was already a long queue at Yunlai Mansion.

These people are all talents in casting, and they are also the younger generation.

 Qi Shuo got off the carriage, watched this scene, and was about to ask the guard next to him to line up on his behalf. He and Zhou An went back to their residence first.

 Zhou An shook his head and walked towards Yunlai Mansion.

Qi Shuo didn’t quite understand, but he still followed.

 “Stop!”

 A policeman stopped in front, and one of them shouted loudly.

“This is an important place in the Yamen. No one is allowed to enter. If you have signed up, please queue up at the back.”

 Should it be said or not, the police officers in a government are more discerning than those in the county.

 The policeman knows very well that most of the people who come here are casting geniuses of the younger generation.

Think about it carefully, if two people come out of this and become jailers, they will be the ones who have to suffer because of some offence.

 So the policeman is very polite.

Zhou An cupped his hands and said, "Excuse me, please tell me the government order, and tell Zhou An to come if you have something to do. If the government order is not there, there is no need to report it."

Several detectives looked at each other, and one of them said "Wait a moment" and walked inside.

 Qi Shuo touched his chubby forehead: "I thought Brother Zhou wouldn't use these methods."

"If you have these methods, why don't you use them? If you don't use them, you won't remind me," Zhou And said.

Qi Shuo shouted that he was wronged: "I was worried that Brother Zhou was not the type to have such relationships, so I didn't dare to mention it, lest I lose my image in front of Brother Zhou."

 The two of them were chatting.

Not long after, a figure appeared at the door and strode towards Zhou An.

“Brother Zhou! If you are really here, I knew you would come!”

Wang Meng walked out happily, and before Zhou An could react, he hugged Zhou An.

We are all in the casting industry. To be honest, what everyone sees is who has good craftsmanship, and whoever has good craftsmanship can impress the other person.

 Wang Meng had seen Zhou An's craftsmanship and thought he was not up to par.

Wang Meng is very much looking forward to it. He wants Zhou An to participate in the Dao Casting Competition. Maybe he can gain some insights by competing with each other at that time.

"Brother Wang, time is urgent. I won't talk about the situation. Please lead the way. I want to see the magistrate. I will invite Brother Wang to dinner when I have the opportunity in the future." Zhou An also said with his fists in hand.

People respect me one foot, and I respect others one foot.

Wang Meng is an open-minded person, and he also knows that Zhou An must have something to do, so he is no longer polite and leads the way, leading Zhou An inside.

 Zhou An walked into the government office under the leadership of Wang Meng, and was quickly taken into the inner courtyard by Wang Meng.

Wang Meng pointed to the room inside and said, "Brother Zhou, the magistrate is inside. You can just go in. I have to take charge of the registration."

 He signed up and worked in Yunlai Mansion, so he also presided over the affairs.

 “You go about your business first.”

 After Wang Meng left, Zhou An went up and knocked on the door.

Qi Shuo knew things very well and did not follow behind. Instead, he looked around from a corner of the inner courtyard.

 “Please come in.”

Soon, Sun Fuling's voice came from the house.

 Zhou An opened the door and walked in.

At this moment, Sun Fuling was buried in a pile of public belongings. After hearing the footsteps, he looked up and found that it was Zhou An. He stood up and poured a cup of tea.

 “I knew you would still attend.”

Zhou An took a sip of tea and said, "Master Sun, if I hadn't known that Master Sun is an upright official, I might have thought that my friend's matter was related to you."

Sun Fu Ling was slightly stunned, not understanding what Zhou An said, and asked strangely: "Brother Zhou, what do you mean by this?"

 Zhou An told what happened, including the reason why he came to participate.

After hearing this, Sun Fuling frowned: "Things seem to have become complicated."

This time the Casting Competition was already very complicated, and now it has become even more complicated after hearing what Zhou An said.

The mysterious figure behind this person seems to have bad intentions.

  No one would be so crazy as to kidnap someone indiscriminately. Others must have a purpose, and it is not just as simple as letting Zhou An join the Casting Competition.

"Obviously, the other party wants to cause trouble, so I'll take the next step." Zhou An put down the teacup in his hand.

“If I don’t get rid of this person, it won’t be as simple as kidnapping my friend next time. I am a very straightforward person and I don’t like to be faced with conspiracies and tricks.”

“So let’s talk to Mr. Sun in advance. After all, the safety of Yunlai Mansion also needs to be ensured, otherwise it will have a bad impact on Mr. Sun.”

Hearing this, Sun Fuling nodded and stroked the long beard on his chin: "You are right. I will investigate and tell you as soon as possible if I find anything." "Then there is Lord Laosun, please help me by the way." Help, join the queue and sign up," Zhou An said with a smile.

Of course, Sun Fuling did not refuse. He was eager for Zhou An to come and participate.

Since the goal has been achieved, Zhou An did not stay and left Yunlai Mansion with Qi Shuo.

 After leaving Yunlai Mansion, Zhou An first found Qi Shuo's residence and asked Qi Shuo to put his cumbersome things here.

 He went out again and went to Zhenguisi in Yunlai Mansion.

Qi Shuo also followed. After all, he still had to explain the situation of the inn to the Zhengui Si.

 What Zhou An and Sun Fu Ling said just now was also a reminder to Sun Fu Ling.

 Now, he is looking for someone who is truly professional.

 The town officials of a prefecture are of course different from those of counties and are more professional.

Whether it is manpower, strength, or even the density of intelligence, it is much stronger than Anding County.

 After Zhou An arrived, he saw many members of the Suppression Division on duty.

 His arrival naturally attracted the attention of many people.

 “What’s the matter with you?” asked a member of the town.

 Zhou An explained his purpose, which was roughly to explain the affairs of the inn.

Unexpectedly, after Zhou An finished speaking, the members of the Zhenshisi shook their heads and said.

"Needless to say, this matter has nothing to do with you. We have investigated it clearly. You can go back."

This answer was unexpected, and Zhou An frowned.

 He knew that since the other party said this, it proved that the news had been conveyed.

 There is no need to ask, there must be some clues, or something similar has happened.

Zhou An thought about this, turned to look at Qi Shuo, and said, "Brother Qi, just go back to your residence and wait for me."

Qi Shuo has felt uncomfortable since he entered the Zhengui Division.

 After all, anyone in the industry will feel uncomfortable coming here.

 Hearing Zhou An's words, he was very decisive and left quickly.

 After Qi Shuo left, Zhou An turned to look at the members of the Zhensi Division and explained that he was recommended by Zhang Si County and came to meet the lord of the Si Mansion.

He thought that after he explained this, the other party would report it, but he never expected that when he mentioned the name Zhangsi County, the member of the town opposite him frowned.

 “Ha…Zhang Si County…what a loud tone.”

  The member of Zhengui sneered.

Hearing this, Zhou An had already guessed the reason. The man in front of him might have had some trouble with Zhang Si County.

“Your Excellency has had issues with Mr. Zhang. These are the past. I don’t want to know about it. I just want to meet Mr. Si Fu. There is indeed something important.”

Zhou An didn’t want to cause trouble, so he said again very sincerely.

Since we are here to do something, there is no need to be too arrogant.

But there is a saying that goes well, the king of **** is easy to meet, but the devil is difficult to deal with.

"I will inform you later when I have time. You can go now." The members of the Zhensi waved their hands, looking nonchalant.

Zhou An frowned slightly and said nothing more, but walked towards another member of the Suppression Division.

 He made his purpose clear again.

What he thought was that since this one didn't work, he would change it to another one. He just wanted to report it.

Unexpectedly, he changed several people one after another, with the same result.

“Zhang Si County has a bad reputation here?” Zhou An frowned.

 He always feels that people here are very repulsive to Zhangsi County.

 But when asked why, they did not answer.

 The most important thing is that I seem to be stuck.

Of course, Zhou An didn’t think he was really stuck.

He didn’t ask any more questions and walked directly inside.

 This approach is actually considered.

  This is probably the reason for this, but it is absolutely impossible for the Sifu here.

Because since Zhangsi County can ask him to come here, he will definitely not let himself come in vain.

Following his movement, several members of the Town Spies stopped in the middle and looked at him with funny expressions, as if they were looking at a clown.

“Do you know the consequences of breaking in here?”

The first member of the Suppression Squadron had a joking look on his face.

Zhou An said calmly: "I don't know, you will know soon."

 Come politely, but you are teased.

 Zhou An is not a good-tempered person.

The Qi in his body circulated rapidly. The next moment, he performed the Wandering Dragon Step, and the person had disappeared from the spot.

 “Bah, bang, bang!”

  Clear slaps sounded, and the members who came to stop them felt their eyes blurred, and then pain spread across their faces.

They really didn't expect that Zhou An would take action. They used the unintentional to the intentional, and their faces were instantly swollen.

 “Get him!”

 The members of the Zhenli Division sounded angry.

They drew their swords and prepared to fight.

 “They are all good players, don’t stop here.” Zhou An pulled out the long knife from the pink money bag, his whole body filled with murderous aura.

These people are all third-rate masters who have entered the threshold.

 As expected of Yunlai Mansion, a large place has a large population base, and the probability of making good moves is high.

Of course, to Zhou An, these people can only be considered good players, not masters.

 Xie Baotou and Zhang Sixian are considered to be good masters.

While thinking this, more and more members of the Suppression Squad appeared and stopped Zhou An.

 But they did not take action.

 They could feel Zhou An's murderous intent.

 Zhou An raised his eyebrows.

 He felt that he might see blood today, and it would be someone else's blood.

Just when the scene was getting more serious and about to break out, a voice rang out.

“You are getting better and better, relying on your own status to ask for help from others, be careful I will kill you all!”

A middle-aged man wearing official clothes came down from upstairs, with a sense of recklessness in his tone.

 When this man came down, everyone present stopped.

 Zhou An looked along where the sound came from.

The middle-aged man in front of him is standing upstairs. He has a beard, a face full of flesh, and bulging muscles on his body. He looks like he is not easy to deal with.

  “He is a master.”

 Zhou An's eyes froze.

 The man in front of him was stronger than anyone he had ever seen.

Even I feel a sense of oppression.

The middle-aged man looked at Zhou An and let out a heroic laugh: "As expected, Zhang Suiniu introduced me. He showed off his skills as soon as he arrived. He is really extraordinary. Come up. In addition, the people who participated just now use their power to suppress others. One month’s salary will be deducted.”

The scene was quiet, and no members of the Suppression Squadron made a sound.
