It was the time when the lights were on, and the guests were full of guests in Wanfu Building, with cups intersecting, and diners were coming and going. As the chef of Wanfu Building, Xia Hong was naturally very busy.

"Tu tu tu tu tu..."

The continuous sound of slashing the table was like rainstorm falling, lingering in this small kitchen, which sounded quite a sense of exquisite rhythm. Looking at Xia Hong's hand, more than a dozen potatoes of palm-sized size had turned into a large pot of thin filaments of the same length and thickness in less than half a stick of incense.

Such knife skills can be considered second to none even if you look at the entire Xiangshui County!

After the ingredients are prepared, the oil in the pot is just hot. Xia Hong turned the iron spoon in his hand lightly, and it was like a flying butterfly passing through flowers. He took peppers, ginger, garlic and other seasonings into the pot, and immediately let the hot oil boil and make a loud noise.

"Sheep..."

In less than three seconds, all the fried potato shredded potatoes were out of the pot. The rich aroma made the apprentices saliva.

It is said that cooking skills are the simpler the dish, the more it can reflect the level of a chef. From this perspective, Xia Hong already has a great style.

However, before Xia Hong showed his skills and prepared the next dish, a young man from a restaurant hurried into the kitchen and said to Xia Hong: "Uncle Xia, the shopkeeper asked you to go to the backyard."

Xia Hong was stunned and suddenly frowned subconsciously. It was the meal time and the busiest time of the restaurant in the day. What did the shopkeeper call him to do?

This is not a mess!

However, even though he was dissatisfied, Xia Hong did not dare to neglect the shopkeeper of Wanfulou. He immediately wiped his hands, picked up the kitchen knife on the chopping board, and walked out.

But what Xia Hong didn't expect was that when he walked into the backyard, he not only did not see the shopkeeper of Wanfu Building, but was surrounded by a group of people of unknown origin!

Seeing this, Xia Hong couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly. After seeing this, he quickly recognized that these people were not wearing civilian uniforms, but the standard military uniforms of the White Horse Governor's Guardian.

So Xia Hong did not dare to move rashly, but just secretly held the kitchen knife that he had fought with for many years.

"What are you going to do?"

"What are you doing? Do you still don't know what kind of guilt your son has committed?" A sinister voice arose. When he turned around, Xiao Yong was limping towards Xia Hong with a crutch.

Xia Hong didn't know the whole story, but when he heard Xiao Yong say this, he couldn't help but feel a little trembling and said, "Asheng? My Asheng has always been obedient and sensible, and never dares to do anything that is harmful to the world. Mr. Xiao has misunderstood, right?"

Xiao Yong sneered, raised a jade pendant in his hand, and said, "Misunderstanding? What do you think is this?"

Xia Hong widened his eyes and tried hard to identify them, but could not see any name. He could only say truthfully: "Mr. Xiao, I don't understand."

"Okay!" Xiao Yong walked to Xia Hong and said viciously: "Since you don't understand, the young master will tell you, this is the autumn mountain pendant passed down from my ancestral family. Although it is not worth a thousand gold, it is also extremely precious. Today it was found from your room. What else do you have to say?"

Xia Hong's face tightened, but he still refused to believe that his son would steal. He immediately explained humbly: "Young Master Xiao, Asheng is only a sixteen-year-old child, so how can he sneak into your mansion to steal this jade pendant? I think this matter must have been wrong!"

Xiao Yong smiled coldly, pointed to the bandage on his feet and said, "He doesn't have the ability, but he has the ability to seriously injure me on the street! This fall was something I wore with, and I guess he was taken care of by him at that time!"

As early as when Xiao Yong first appeared, Xia Hong noticed the injury on the other party's feet, but he never thought that it was actually Xia Sheng who was injured?

However, his son is obviously just an ordinary person who does not understand cultivation, and this eldest son of the Xiao family is known as a genius and has long broken through the warrior realm. Who in the town knows? Since that's the case, how could Xia Sheng hurt him!

Thinking of this, Xia Hong was even more suspicious. He was about to speak up for a few words, but he saw that Xiao Zhen, the mayor of Baima Town, also walked over from not far away.

Behind him, a middle-aged man nodded and bowed, was the big shopkeeper of Wanfu Building, Wang Yuanshan!

Xiao Zhen walked to Xia Hong, but did not look at him in front of him, but instead taught Wang Yuanshan a lesson with a majestic face: "Shopkeeper Wang, your Wanfu Building is too unreasonable! Why do everyone use it? Keep such thieves with unclean hands and feet in the kitchen. Who would dare to come to your restaurant for dinner in the future?"

Wang Yuanshan was sweating profusely on his head, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

To be honest, he still had some friendship with Xia Hong. If it weren't for Xia Hong's amazing cooking skills, this Wanfulou wouldn't have such a good business. If it were other times, he would definitely say a few fair words for Xia Hong.

But he is now facing the mayor of Baima Town!

If you offend Xia Hong, you just have to find another chef. However, if you offend Xiao Zhen, you may not be able to open the Wanfu Building!

Wang Yuanshan saw clearly which one is more important. But he still couldn't bear to put a slap in the wrong place, so he deliberately put a stern face and said, "Old Xia, Lao Xia! Look at what kind of son you have taught you! Not only did you dare to beat Mr. Xiao in the street, but you also stole the jade ornaments that Mr. Xiao wore with you. This caused a big disaster!"

When Xiao Zhen heard Wang Yuanshan’s seemingly scolding but actually defending his words, he immediately hummed coldly.

"Shopkeeper Wang! What you said is wrong! As the saying goes, it is not the fault of the son but the godfather. Xia Sheng is only a sixteen-year-old boy. If he commits such a crime, it may be his father instigated! What's more, even if theft has nothing to do with Xia Hong, if you know the matter and do not report it, you will be even more guilty of hiding the stolen goods!"

After saying that, Xiao Zhen waved gently: "Come on, tie Xia Hong back to me and interrogate him carefully!"

After ordering, the soldiers guarding the palace immediately took a step forward, holding iron chains as thick as a thumb, and wooden shackles used for the vicious people. If Xia Hong was taken out of the street like this, even if he was not guilty, he would be considered a criminal who was extremely guilty!

Xiao Zhen is worthy of being the mayor of Baima Town, and this move is so insidious!

Xia Hong saw through the other party's sinister intentions at a glance, and also saw clearly the true meaning of the so-called arrest of the "thieves" by the government soldiers today.

If you want to inflict a crime, there is no retribution!

He subconsciously raised the kitchen knife in his hand and took a step back, but his face seemed a little hesitant.

Seeing this, Xiao Zhen immediately shouted: "Xia Hong! Do you still want to arrest and rebel? Put down the knife!"

Before he finished speaking, a deep orange light had risen outside Xiao Zhen's body, and a sharp sword-shaped talisman floated out of his wrist. Even though Xiao Zhen had no sword in his hand at this time, the strong sword intent was so pressing that Xia Hong couldn't breathe.

Xia Hong's eyes had narrowed into a line, and the corners of his eyebrows were slightly raised due to strong anger. Once upon a time, as long as he had a knife in his hand, who would dare to use such despicable means to bully and humiliate him?

But now he is different from the past. Now he has become a waste. With just a kitchen knife, he may be able to repel these dozens of soldiers in the palace, but he is definitely not Xiao Zhen’s opponent!

Even if he really luckily broke out from here, what should Xia Sheng do?

After a while, Xia Hong took a deep breath, then bent down his waist, and put the kitchen knife in his hand on the ground with a little lonely look, with a self-deprecating bitterness on the corner of his mouth.

It’s really a tiger falling into a flat sun and being bullied by a dog!

However, the Xiao family's humiliation of Xia Hong did not end.

Seeing Xia Hong put down the knife, Xiao Yong's face looked extremely proud. He limped to Xia Hong with a crutch and said grimly, "If I had known today, why would you have been there?"

As he said that, Xiao Yong held the crutch with one hand and raised the other hand high, and slapped Xia Hong with a loud slap!

"Bang!"

Xia Hong is just an ordinary person now, how can he withstand the power of a dignified warrior? He staggered and fell to the ground tragically, and a touch of bright red flowed out from the corner of his mouth.

"This time, I'm going to be beaten for your son. Don't worry, I will treat him well after he comes back!"

After saying that, Xiao Yong seemed to be unhappy and wanted to go up and make up his feet, but Xiao Zhen heard him say, "Okay! Come on, lock him up and take him back!"

Hearing this, the soldiers who had been waiting around immediately rushed up and pressed Xia Hong to kneel on the ground. The locks, the locks, the locks, and the locks, the Xiangshui thieves, were never so diligent when they were pursuing the Xiangshui thieves in the past.

Xiao Yong's eyes were vicious and he chuckled, "It's just a restaurant chef. If I don't obey you father and son today, it's just a waste of me..."

Before Xiao Yong finished speaking, a strong wind came from outside the yard, and a dazzling orange light hit his chest, blocking his second sentence back.

"Bang!"

With a dull sound, Xiao Yong flew out like a broken sack and smashed heavily on the courtyard wall, immediately bursting a gap that was one person high.

"Who...ah!"

A soldier holding an iron chain let out a scream like a pig, and a hot blood squirted out from him. When he looked at his arms, he was gone.

The sudden change shocked everyone, including Xiao Zhen, and everyone stopped their hands and looked at the person with panic.

Xia Sheng's eyes were very calm, and there was no anger on his face, but only those who knew him the most knew that Xia Sheng was the most terrifying devil at this time!

He raised his hand slightly, and the kitchen knife that had followed Xia Hong for most of his life fell into his palm.

The blade pointed directly at Xiao Zhen three feet away.
