Chapter 7 Lend a Hand

After eating, Chen Laosan and his team began to deal with a new batch of corpses.

I don't know how many people the white-haired eunuch has killed. Chen Laosan has become numb these days. He found problems with several of the dead bodies.

"Um?"

Chen Laosan grabbed a corpse and was about to bury it, but his movements suddenly stopped. He looked back quietly and found that Wang Laoshuan and Luo Cheng had not noticed the movement here. The white-haired eunuch in the distance was also sitting cross-legged in meditation, apparently recovering from his injuries.

After making sure there was no danger, Chen Laosan lowered his head again. He carefully reached out and took out a token from the corpse's arms.

The small black plate, which looked like jade but was not, was engraved with a black tortoise pattern and had an ancient seal character in the middle. Chen Laosan did not recognize the character, but it did not prevent him from recognizing the plate.

"This is the Black Turtle Seal?!"

The Black Turtle Seal is a symbol of the royal family. Only royal family members dare to use it. Any impostor will be hunted down by the Imperial Observatory.

"These people are royal!"

Cold sweat instantly flowed down Chen Laosan's forehead. He quickly buried the sign beside it and pretended nothing had happened as he continued to bury the body.

It was impossible to put it on his body. The old eunuch had extraordinary martial arts skills and some mysterious methods. If he put the sign on his body, he would be courting death.

By the time the last batch of bodies were buried, it was already dark.

The white-haired eunuch had almost finished his rest. After seeing the three men bury the last body and making sure there were no bodies left, he stood up and walked over. The other soldiers around also moved in. This group of people formed a circle and completely blocked the scene. They stood there like emotionless machines.

After the white-haired eunuch came over, he ignored Chen Laosan and the other three. Instead, he took out a compass and walked around the pile of buried corpses three times. After making sure that there was no trouble, he put the compass back into his arms.

"This is a reward for you."

The white-haired eunuch stopped three steps away from Chen Laosan and the others, and glanced at them with a look of disdainful frown.

Then he took out a bag of silver and threw it on the ground.

Chen Laosan and the other three looked at each other, and no one went over to take the silver.

When the time of fate's judgment comes, no one wants to be the first to die.

The white-haired eunuch seemed to see through their concerns, and he sneered and turned around.

"Go away, your miserable lives are not worth my efforts."

As he spoke, his figure gradually faded away. The soldiers who were blocking the scene also merged into the forest silently like ghosts. In the end, there was no sound at all.

Are you really letting us go?

The three looked at the disappearing figures in disbelief, wondering if they were dreaming. When they had buried the bodies, they were all ready to die, but they didn't expect that when the time came, the other party would actually let them go.

"No matter whether he really lets go or not, one more day of living is one more day."

Luo Cheng turned around and rushed towards the silver in the mud.

"I haven't lived enough!"

The remaining two people, Chen Laosan, also reacted quickly and started fighting with Luo Cheng for the silver in the purse.

I've worked for so long, I can't take less money.

The three of them were all experienced corpse-buries, so they could naturally tell whether there was poison on the money bag. After confirming that there was no problem, the three of them started the money-dividing meeting.

Half a day later.

After dividing the money, the three returned to Qingya County.

Chen Laosan even went straight back home.

"Third Uncle?!"

Chen Luo, who was practicing martial arts in the yard, heard the noise and immediately ran over to open the door. When he saw Chen Laosan, he couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

He thought that his third uncle was in trouble, and he had been looking for people to find out the news for the past two days.

"Haha, if you survive a disaster, you will have good fortune in the future! Come on, Uncle San will take you to eat meat tonight." Chen Laosan was also very excited. On the way back, he and Wang Laoshuan were both very nervous, but they didn't expect to successfully return home.

When Chen Laosan thought about the money he earned from this business, he couldn't help but feel happy.

Now the money needed for my nephew's martial arts training is enough.

I will go to Baoan Hall tomorrow to get some medicine for warriors to train their blood, and give my nephew some good nourishment. And it is time to start looking for a wife for him. I must find someone with a thick waist and a big butt, who is easy to bear children! This way, when he goes back for the New Year, he can explain to his elder brother.

"Well"

Chen Luo was suddenly stuck in his speech.

It was okay to eat and drink, but no meat. Uncle San had become a celebrity in Liuxiang Hutong over the years. When he walked in the hutong on weekdays, a few cheap "Third Aunts" would greet him from time to time and ask him why Uncle San hadn't come for a long time.

"What are you thinking, little brat!"

Chen Laosan raised his hand and slapped him.

"I'm talking about eating meat." After saying that, he turned and walked outside.

In the past, when they were on a long-term mission, the uncle and nephew would go to the old noodle stall to eat. Today, Chen Laosan was generous and took Chen Luo directly to Jude Building.

We ordered more than a dozen dishes in one go and two jars of wine before we were done.

The money in the white-haired eunuch's purse was not a small amount. Chen Laosan, Luo Cheng and the other three were each given a small yellow croaker. In addition, there were some small silver coins, all of which were used in Beijing. If they were exchanged for local money, they would be big money!

After eating and drinking their fill, the uncle and nephew packed up the remaining food and staggered back to their residence.

No words were spoken that night.

The next morning, Chen Luo got up early to practice boxing.

After his uncle came back, the only worry in his heart disappeared. With this mentality, his martial arts breakthroughs became faster and faster. The "brain" in his mind constantly helped him optimize the boxing training path. The Black Tiger Fist that Ma Quezi passed on to him was constantly improved and now it has completely changed.

But the momentum and power are stronger.

He practiced martial arts in the yard for the next few days. It was not until the third day when he received news from his master Ma Quezi that he went out and visited Ma Quezi's house.

"Still blocked?"

Chen Luo walked to the street and took a special look.

The long street leading to Ma Quezi's house was still not open, and the street was still blocked. The atmosphere on the street was a little strange, and there were many unfamiliar faces in the county. I don't know what happened during this period, the situation in Qingya County is getting more and more tense.

When Chen Luo took a detour to Ma Quezi's house, he found that there was already someone inside.

"Coming?"

Ma Quezi was filing a bamboo knife at the door. When he saw Chen Luo coming, he looked up and said something.

Ma Quezi was quite appreciative of this disciple who had been accepted halfway through his career. He had a very good aptitude for boxing and had mastered his boxing skills in just a few days. The rest were all empirical questions, and he had nothing more to teach him.

Ma Quezi himself was not a great master, so there was no possibility that he was a hidden master. Chen Luo had a lot of "external brains" to help him, so learning his boxing skills was naturally easy.

"Master."

Chen Luo bowed respectfully.

"Let's go in and talk."

Ma Quezi put down the bamboo knife in his hand and led Chen Luo into the house.

In the yard, there was a strange girl hitting a sandbag. From her agile punches, it could be seen that her basic skills were very solid, far beyond what Chen Luo could achieve back then.

"Her name is He Min, and she will be your junior sister from now on."

Ma Quezi didn't say much, just a brief introduction. This He Min, like Chen Luo, is a relative. Ma Quezi lives in Qingya County, so he can't avoid the social etiquette here. No matter how well he hides, there are people who know his ability.

"Master Ma."

Over there, He Min had already finished a set of boxing, and her whole body was steaming. The blue and white training clothes under the heat outlined her figure clearly, and combined with He Min's 70% appearance, it gave people a heroic feeling.

"This is your senior brother Chen Luo, the disciple I accepted half a month ago."

Ma Quezi gave a brief introduction.

They were all his disciples, so naturally he hoped that they could help each other, especially He Min. Her father was from a gang, so telling him in advance could avoid a lot of trouble.

"Brother Chen."

He Min bowed respectfully with a very good attitude.

"Junior Sister He."

Chen Luo also returned the greeting.

"Now that you're here, just lend a hand." Ma Quezi clapped his hands and said to the two of them.

"yes."

The two men looked at each other, and a fighting spirit burned in their eyes at the same time.

Chen Luo also wanted to know what level he had reached now. Since this Junior Sister He came from a gang, she must be quite skilled.
