Qin Yuesheng finally breathed a sigh of relief as the big man who had lost the white face possession collapsed unconscious on the ground.
"That was a close call! If it weren't for the Buddha statue's restraining effect on that white-faced person, it would have been hard to say if we could subdue him today."
Looking at the Buddha statue in his hand, Qin Yuesheng instantly decided to buy it from Du Tankang for one thousand taels.
The appearance of the white face was really strange. Qin Yuesheng didn't know whether this white face was the one he had just met on the road, or whether there were many white faces. In order to prevent himself from being passive in similar situations in the future, he had to buy this Buddha statue.
"Young Master." Four guards surrounded him.
"Tie this man up and take him to the county government office." Du Tankang, supporting Du Beilun, walked over and ordered the Baozhai thugs, "Also, take the Third Young Master to see a doctor immediately."
"Yes." Baozhai's thugs took action. Several of them carried Du Beilun and the thug whose arm was torn off downstairs, while the remaining Baozhai thugs found hemp ropes to tie up the unconscious man tightly to prevent him from causing any trouble when he woke up.
Looking at the debris on the second floor, Du Tankang felt extremely distressed. The treasures on the second floor were mostly jade, porcelain, calligraphy and paintings, all of which were large items. After the fight just now, the loss was heavy.
"Du Tankang, I have a special connection with this Buddha statue of yours. I will buy it at the price you just mentioned. I will have someone send a silver note of one thousand taels to your house someday." Qin Yuesheng walked over holding the Buddha statue and said in a tone that could not be refused.
Du Tankang smiled bitterly, nodded tiredly and said, "As long as you like it."
In addition to Qin Yuesheng and the burly man in brocade clothes, there were some other customers on the second floor. However, they were so scared that they curled up in various corners, watching the fight between Qin Yuesheng and others without even daring to breathe. They were like invisible people, with a very low sense of presence.
Seeing that the big man had been subdued and the crisis was resolved, these people immediately breathed a sigh of relief and dared to get up from the ground, carrying the things they had chosen and going downstairs to pay the bill.
After experiencing this wave of chaos, Qin Yuesheng naturally lost interest in continuing to stroll around. After saying hello to Du Tankang, he left Nanyan Baozhai with four guards and returned to the Qin Mansion.
As for the mad man and what happened afterwards, it was naturally Du Tankang who handled it.
…
On the fourth day of the third month of the seventy-third year of the Yongle reign of the Tang Dynasty, several men and women in Qingyang City, Suzhou, suddenly became ill with epilepsy within a single day. They took to the streets with sharp weapons and injured thirty-four people, killing seventeen. The specific circumstances are unknown.
…
As soon as Qin Yuesheng returned home, a beautiful woman ran up to him hurriedly. She stopped in front of Qin Yuesheng and looked around, looking very nervous.
When Qin Yuesheng saw this girl, he immediately asked in confusion, "Second Mother, what are you doing?"
The beautiful woman waited until she was sure that Qin Yuesheng had no wounds on his body before she breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that nothing happened to you. Yuesheng, did you encounter any danger when you went out today?"
"What do you mean?"
"A lot of people were hacked and injured in Qingyang City today. I heard that a few people had epilepsy and took knives to the streets to hack anyone they saw. Right now, the government officials are patrolling the streets to prevent further casualties."
"Oh? Several people!" Qin Yuesheng frowned slightly, thinking, "Could it be that there really is more than one white face?"
"Anyway, I'm glad you're okay. The situation outside is unclear right now, and we don't know if all those people with epilepsy have been caught. Yuesheng, don't go out again these few days. Safety is the most important thing. You are the only one in our Qin family."
The beautiful woman's real name is Duan Hongjin, and she is Qin Feng's concubine. As early as when Qin Yuesheng's mother was still alive, Duan Hongjin was Qin Yuesheng's mother's maid who came with her as a dowry. Later, Qin Yuesheng's mother agreed to let her be Qin Feng's concubine.
Originally, a maidservant who came with the dowry had the obligation to devote herself to the man, but Qin Feng was a devoted man. He was not interested in anyone except Qin Yuesheng's mother, and he had no intention of taking a concubine. In the end, it was his wife who persuaded him before her death that finally made an exception and took a concubine.
After Qin Yuesheng's mother passed away, Duan Hongjin should be responsible for Qin Feng's needs in that regard. This woman is quite straightforward. She knows Qin Feng's feelings for Qin Yuesheng's mother and the lady's kindness to her. She has been taking contraceptive powder since Qin Yuesheng's mother passed away. She has no intention of giving birth to a child to pass on the descendants, for fear that her children will have some influence on Qin Yuesheng.
"Okay, Second Mother." Qin Yuesheng agreed directly and readily.
Qin Yuesheng's mother, Duan, died shortly after he was born. Over the years, it was Duan Hongjin who took care of him as a mother, so it was completely natural for Qin Yuesheng to call her "Second Mother" and there was nothing awkward about it.
After saying goodbye to Duan Hongjin, Qin Yuesheng asked a security guard to carry the Buddha statue to his room, while he walked slowly behind to check the super assistant device.
Originally, Qin Yuesheng's strength was 0.7. After adding 7 points of all-powerful essence to the Tiger-Crane Double Form Fist, he still had 5 points of all-powerful essence left.
Just now in Nanyan Baozhai, in order to inflict damage on the large man possessed by the white-faced demon, Qin Yuesheng took the initiative to increase his strength to its current limit. As a result, his personal attributes became:
…
Strength: 1.0 (normal person) (+)
Agility: 1.0 (normal) (+)
Constitution: 1.0 (normal person) (+)
Spirit: 0.9 (normal person) (+)
Charm: 0.8 (average appearance) (+)
Almighty Essence: 2
…
Except for spirit and charm, which can still be added, the plus signs behind the other three attributes have turned gray and cannot be selected.
