178 I said you will go blind sooner or later if you look at those things
As we all know, the most profitable methods are written in the criminal law.
Although the criminal law in Xizhou is not that strong, illegal activities are still the most profitable.
Since Wu Xin had gone to raid the bandit's home, Lin Yan had some inappropriate expectations of him: "Master, did you get the pass to enter and exit the Qiao family?"
Wu Xin's eyes were wrapped in a white ribbon. Although no one could see his expression, they felt that he looked at Lin Yan with a reproachful look and said righteously, "I am a monk, not a robber."
You killed all the bandits. The bandits can't compete with you.
As a fortune teller, Lin Yan is used to seeing the essence through appearances, and asked again: "Is there such a thing?"
Wu Xin was silent for a moment, then took out a jade token: "There is only this one, but it has expired."
The identity jade tokens of aristocratic families have many functions. Not only do they represent one’s identity, they are also usually passes to enter and exit the family.
In order to prevent the jade plaques from falling into the hands of outsiders and thus bringing in trouble, these jade plaques usually have to be sent to the family for authentication at regular intervals before they can continue to be used.
The jade token in Wuxin's hand had exceeded its expiration date because it had stayed in the bandit camp for too long and could no longer be used.
Everyone was a little disappointed, but not discouraged. They followed the direction Wuxin said and headed deep into the city, arriving in front of a majestic and magnificent mansion.
The mansion took up the entire street, and it seemed as if there was no end in sight.
No matter who walks by on the neatly paved bluestone streets, they will involuntarily slow down and admire the mansion.
The main entrance of the mansion is extremely majestic, with a total of nine doors.
Above the widest gate in the middle hangs a huge plaque with the words "Qiao Mansion" written in a flamboyant style.
"Wow, Fourth Brother, your house is so magnificent." Jiang Xin couldn't help but sigh.
Zhao Shi frowned and said nothing.
Jiang Xin sighed: "I just don't know if such a magnificent house will still be there when we leave."
Although no one knows what she is going to do, judging by the fighting power Jiang Xin has shown in the past, the Qiao family is doomed.
With two "dong dong" sounds, Wu Xin gently tapped the ground with his golden cudgel, and soon the surrounding scene appeared roughly in his mind.
He identified the direction and led everyone forward: "Go this way."
As he walked for a distance, everyone saw a beggar lying on the ground under a poplar tree.
The beggar was dressed in rags, even dirty, with sparse dry hair, which covered his face, so his features could not be seen clearly.
He was lying carelessly on the ground, with a tattered straw mat with holes in it half on the ground and half covering his body.
If Wuxin hadn't mentioned him before, no one would have imagined that this inconspicuous beggar would actually be a disciple in the Lianxu stage from the Chankong Temple, one of the six major immortal sects.
"Senior Brother." Wu Xin stepped forward, made a palm seal with one hand, and bowed.
The beggar raised his eyelids and carefully looked Wu Xin up and down several times through the gaps between his hair. He exclaimed, "Huh?" "Why are you blind?"
The voice sounded younger than Jiang Xin and the others had imagined, probably around thirty years old.
Wu Xin said calmly: "I saw something I shouldn't have seen."
The beggar sneered, "I told you that you would go blind sooner or later if you looked at those things, but you still didn't believe me."
"Brother, you have misunderstood. I am not blind because of those things. Let me introduce these people. They are the donors of Tianshui Sect." Wuxin cleverly changed the subject.
The beggar's attention was indeed diverted by these words, and he looked at Jiang Xin and the others.
Chu Linfeng and his companions did not deliberately restrain their cultivation, and their strong Jindan stage aura was clearly revealed.
The beggar changed his posture from lying down to half lying down, and scratched his exposed belly: "What are the disciples of Tianshui Sect doing here?"
Just as Lin Yan was about to speak, Wu Xin spoke first, "Seek revenge on the Qiao family."
Speaking of this, the beggar was no longer sleepy. He stood up from the straw mat, sat cross-legged, patted the empty seat next to him, and invited warmly: "Come, sit down and talk slowly."
The tone was so warm that everyone felt embarrassed to refuse.
Jiang Xin was the first to walk over, took off her shoes, stepped onto the straw mat, and sat down next to the beggar: "Hello, brother. My name is Jiang Xin. What's your name? What's your grudge against the Qiao family?"
"Just call me Wucheng. I have a lot to say about the grudges between me and the Qiao family."
"Brother, take your time. Have some snacks." Jiang Xin took out a small coffee table from her Sumeru bracelet and placed it between the two of them. Then she began to take out snacks and candies one by one, and generously gave Wucheng a pot of Changling goat milk.
Jiang Xiao took off his shoes and sat next to Jiang Xin, preparing to listen to Wu Cheng talk about the past with Jiang Xin.
There was limited space on the straw mat, and with three people sitting there, one adult and two children, there was no room for more.
Chu Linfeng sat cross-legged on the ground beside him, holding the sword: "Master, tell me, maybe we can take revenge together."
Wu Cheng glanced at them and asked, "First, tell me what grudge you have with the Qiao family."
Everyone looked at Zhao Shi.
Zhao Shi hesitated for a moment, then said truthfully, "They refined my mother into a magical instrument, causing her to suffer torture after her death and not rest in peace."
During this period of time, Zhaoshi gradually recalled some of his past experiences in the Qiao family.
Because Qiao Yuan got pregnant before marriage, she was regarded as a disgrace to the Qiao family and was kept under house arrest in a remote courtyard in the Qiao Mansion.
Zhao Shi has lived there with his mother since he was a child.
The Qiao family once wanted to kill him directly to erase the stain on the Qiao family, but Qiao Yuan tried to stop them at all costs.
From then on, the mother and son had to fend for themselves in that palm-sized courtyard.
Qiao Yuan is not mentally normal, as if her body and soul have suffered severe trauma, but she has always been very kind to Zhao Shi.
But in this situation, no matter how good Qiao Yuan was to him, her ability was limited, and Zhaoshi grew up under the bullying of the Qiao family.
Today, Zhao Shi no longer thinks about his painful childhood.
He just wanted to avenge Qiao Yuan.
He was wearing a mask, so Wu Cheng couldn't see his face, but through the holes in the mask, he could see a flash of hatred in Zhao Shi's eyes.
Looking at Zhao Shi again and again, Wu Cheng asked in surprise, "Are you Qiao Yuan's son?"
Zhao Shi was even more surprised than him: "You know my mother?"
"I guess we know each other. Your eyes are very similar to hers." Wu Cheng looked up at him and smiled with admiration, "You've grown up so much. Did you just say that the Qiao family refined your mother's soul into a magical weapon?"
Wuxin had seen the South Pearl Blue Diamond and could guess its use, so there was no need to hide it from Wucheng.
Zhao Shi said truthfully: "They mistakenly thought that I took the Qiao family's secret treasure and wanted to use the blood connection between my mother and me to find me."
"It's so vicious. The only one who can refine this thing is probably Qiao Yanbo, the current acting head of the Qiao family." Wu Cheng said.
Qiao Ye has already confessed to this. It was his father, Qiao Yanbo, Qiao Yuan's brother, who personally refined the South Pearl Blue Diamond.
Now Zhao Shi is more concerned about one thing: "Why does the senior know my mother?"
