Chapter Thirty-Three: Calculations

  "This cause and effect will finally come to an end"; Looking at the motionless mountain bandit leader, Chen Jiu's mouth corner revealed a mysterious smile.

  Then, the leader of the mountain bandits had a ferocious expression and disordered breathing, with a faint black glow starting to spread from his palm, but it was suppressed when it reached his arm.

  Slowly picking up a big knife, Chen Jiuyi smiled: "You don't have any chance now".

  After finishing speaking, the big knife came out of his hand with a "ding" sound, and the big knife with blood stains nailed the master to the wall.

  His eyes stared at Chen Jiu, then reluctantly slowly drooped his eyelids, a generation of heroes, the master who laughed proudly in the mountains and rivers just went like this, died so wretchedly.

  Under the terrified gaze of all the bandits, Da Dangjia's body was instantly covered in black air, turning into a puddle of yellow water that seeped into the ground, leaving no bones behind.

  With a soft sigh, Chen Jiu opened the painting as a prison: "You can go now."

  Everyone looked at me, I looked at you, no one dared to make a move, but instead cast their eyes on Chen Jiu.

  Chen Jiuqi laughed: "What's wrong, do you still want to be mountain bandits here?"

  With a whoosh, the crowd vanished into the mountain stronghold at an astonishing speed.

  Looking at this already large-scale mountain stronghold, Chen Jiu lightly shook his head: "I don't know why I seem to be born for killing and arson."

  After finishing speaking, a symbol rose across the sky, and the huge mountain stronghold was once again turned into ashes in the flames.

  Walking slowly down the mountain road, Chen Jiu had his hands behind his back: "Now only that county magistrate is left, this old guy is not easy to kill, we need to think of a way".

  After thinking for half a day, Chen Jiu still couldn't think of a good solution. He couldn't go back to the county town, or he would be reported sooner or later. It seemed that he had to spend some time living like a wild man in the mountains.

  Sitting on a giant rock, Chen Jiu looked up at the sky: "I don't want to kill him, not only because of the heavenly retribution, but also because of the imperial army's expedition, once being targeted by the expeditionary force, that would be an extremely unpleasant thing, after all, killing a county magistrate is no small matter.

  "This county magistrate has killed so many people, can't those ghosts in the underworld do something about it?" Chen Jiu said with doubt.

  Don't think too much, lazily basking in the sun, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge head, that county magistrate has already lost people's hearts, as long as you wait patiently, there will always be a chance to kill him.

  He glanced at the sky and drank a cup of wine, which was brewed by Chen Jiu himself, and now only this one cup is left.

  Suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed through Chen Jiu's mind: "Got it".

  Everyone has it, let alone a superior person. The county magistrate governs the region and is so muddle-headed and unjust, of course there are romantic affairs that cannot be avoided.

  Chen Jiupai patted his buttocks and ran to the south of the city to dig up a bag of gold. After that, he buried the gold again and thought for a moment, feeling uneasy, so he cast a curse.

  This time Chen Jiu entered the city without any obstacles, presumably because that wanted notice had been withdrawn. He walked into a teahouse and ordered a pot of tea, looking at those rascals with their big mouths, all sorts of riffraff were there.

  He beckoned to the little servant, who came running over: "Sir, what are your orders?"

  He pulled out a piece of gold and gently placed it on the table, Chen Jiu looked at the little servant who stared at the gold with wide eyes: "You help me do something, this piece of gold is yours."

  The little servant heard this and his head shrunk back: "Sir, you're overestimating me, I can't do something with such a big reward."

  Chen Jiu looked at the young waiter and thought to himself that this 15 or 16 year old was quite mature, not greedy, and didn't speak nonsense, what a good kid.

  "Don't be afraid, I just need to ask you something and then have you help me run an errand to the pharmacy," said Chen Jiuyin in a gentle voice.

  Xiao Er hesitated and glanced at Chen Jiu, then looked at Jinzi again, wanting to make a big profit, but without a certain degree of risk, how could it be possible?

  "Okay, sir, I'll try my best to get it done for you."

  "You tell me first which of the county magistrate's daughters he likes best?"

  Xiao Er thought for a moment and then said with certainty: "It's Yuexiaojie of the Drunken Flower Pavilion."

  Chen Jiu didn't ask any further, thinking that this little kid wouldn't dare to cheat him, so he pushed the gold in front of him towards Xiao Er: "I have a prescription here, go to the pharmacy and get me some medicine, when you come back, this gold will be yours."

  Xiao Er took over the prescription handed over by Chen Jiu and put it in his bosom, then hurriedly ran downstairs.

  Looking at this big package of medicine, Chen Jiuyi smiled and handed the gold to the shopkeeper, then nodded: "Not bad".

  Found a deserted place, Chen Jiu slowly ground the medicine into powder and put it in a porcelain bottle: "This packet of three emotions and six desires is enough to torment that county magistrate to death, since we can't use magical methods, let's use worldly means instead".

  As he walked into the largest room in the county town, Chen Jiu held a piece of gold in his hand, constantly weighing it. A clever person saw the gold in Chen Jiu's hand and his eyes lit up: "Ah, Master, you've arrived!"

  Chen Jiu looked at her and said nothing: "I want Yu Qing."

  With a look of embarrassment: "Sir, you're making things difficult for me. Who doesn't know that today is the day the county magistrate is coming? This rain gear is off-limits to anyone but the county magistrate. How about I exchange it for another one?"

  Chen Jiu tossed the gold high into the air and then caught it in his outstretched hand: "When is the county magistrate coming today?"

  Qí guài de kàn le Chén jiǔ yī yǎn: "biān wǎn de shí hòu jiù yīng gāi lái le"

  Chen Jiu threw the gold to him: "I just want to have a conversation with Yu Qing girl, nothing else, and I'll leave when it's almost dusk. If you agree, this piece of gold will be yours."

  He glanced at Chen and then looked at the heavy gold again, gritted his teeth and said: "Alright, it's settled then."

  Chen Jiu sat in the boudoir of Yu Qing, looking at the purple decorations, Chen Jiu revealed a hint of a smile, since County Master came tonight, he must be staying in Yu Qing's boudoir, this was Chen Jiu's plan.

  After entering the room, I still haven't seen Miss Yuqing, but there seems to be a vague figure behind the screen, which must be Miss Yuqing.

  Chen Jiu glanced at the beam, and with a slight tremble of his hand, the small bottle landed on top of it. The powder slowly trickled down, but not too quickly.

  Drinking slowly, he didn't see Rain Clearing Girl, Chen Jiu slightly impatient, pushed open the door, looking at the downstairs: "For such a long time, why haven't I seen Rain Clearing Girl?"

  Upon hearing this, a smile bloomed on her face: "Grandfather, don't be impatient, Rain Qing is taking a bath."

  Chen Jiu took a look at the sky and knew what was on his mind. By the time Yu Qing finished her bath, it would probably be dark, and County Master would have arrived. At that time, he could only see Yu Qing for a moment, but because of County Master's face, he had to swallow this grievance into his belly.

  "If you are not benevolent, then don't blame me for being unrighteous. The truth of cause and effect is indeed mysterious, every move and every drink has its own destiny. I originally wanted to get rid of the trouble I had made for myself, but unexpectedly it took its own path to destruction."

  Chen Jiugan walked directly into the Datang and had a drink with everyone, but this wine was not very good, it couldn't be compared to his own personally brewed fine wine.

  Before nightfall, the county magistrate arrived.

  This is a thin old man, looking very sinister, with a goatee, leading the guard, as soon as he entered the door, he shouted loudly: "Where is Yuqing girl? Hurry up and call Yuqing out!"

  He glanced at Chen Jiuyi and smiled smugly: "Master, you've finally arrived, Yuqing has been waiting for you in the room for a long time."

  County Master didn't say much and directly walked to that house with ease, until now Chen Jiu still hasn't seen what Rain Qing looks like.

  Chen Jiuyi's mouth corner revealed a cold smile: "Old fellow, you will die tonight, as long as you absorb that medicine into your belly, you're done."

  Think about it, when two people are fighting, it's a physically demanding task, can't help but breathe rapidly? Since they're breathing rapidly, the outcome of that drug is inevitable.

  Chen Ji got up and left, not wanting to cause any trouble here.

  Just as I stepped out of the city, I felt a sudden clarity in the air, as if all impurities had vanished without a trace, and a strong, masculine energy filled every corner of this world.
