Chapter 507: Playing tricks on people
A humble servant,
If you die, you die.
In the Song Dynasty, masters had the power of life and death over their slaves.
If I had a family, the most I would have to pay would be a compensation worth less than the cost of a donkey's cremation and burial.
If not,
The straw mat was rolled up and thrown directly into the mass grave.
Except for the vultures roaming around the mass grave, who will be happy about it, no one else will care at all.
But in this world,
Some people regard them as cattle and sheep that can be killed at will.
Perhaps in the eyes of another person, it is a priceless treasure.
The beggar, who was saved from death by Xiangling's help and found a legitimate job as a pharmacy clerk, asked the shopkeeper for a day off after hearing the news. He went to the mass grave alone and found the corpse that had been pecked beyond recognition by vultures on the mountain.
He drove away the vultures that gathered around and feasted on the food, and stood there for an hour.
Then they spent half a day moving the body to a relatively picturesque place, dug a grave and buried it.
It took another half a day to use meat as bait to poison and kill all the vultures on the mass grave.
After that, the beggar returned to the drugstore. The clerk inside saw that he looked exhausted and asked him jokingly if he had gone to Happy Street to enjoy himself. The beggar just smiled and said nothing.
The days that followed were the same as usual. The beggar was busy in the pharmacy every day, as if nothing had happened.
But every night, the beggar would quietly leave while the other guys were sleeping, disappearing into the darkness, and only return quietly an hour or two later.
This lasted for three months, and after some effort, he finally understood the inside story.
Xiangling was beaten to death, not because of breaking Mr. Lin’s beloved vase.
The reason for her death was that she mentioned to the top disciple of Dian Cang Sect that the eldest daughter of the Lin family, Lin Jiaoxue, once had a fiancé, and said that he had just broken off the engagement a few days ago.
This led to the top disciples of Dian Cang Sect going to kill Lin Jiaoxue's former fiancé, but in the end, the top disciples of Dian Cang Sect failed to kill him and were killed instead.
The reason why Xiang Ling leaked the news was because she was instructed by Lin Jiaoxue, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, to do so in order to completely erase the stain behind her.
But no one expected the result.
Later, in order to conceal the truth, the Lin family committed murder to silence the witness.
This was the truth that the former beggar had spent several months finding out.
From the day he found out the truth, the former beggar no longer went out in the middle of the night. He slept peacefully every night and worked diligently during the day.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the people working in the store all felt that he seemed to have become much quieter.
He also began to take an interest in the affairs of the martial arts world. Sometimes in his spare time, he liked to listen to the bragging of martial artists who came to the pharmacy to buy medicine and practice martial arts, and talk about the major events that happened in the martial arts world.
Occasionally he would take a day or two off, and no one knew what he was doing.
Until one day, when rumors spread in the martial arts world, a conflict had arisen between the Dian Cang Sect, one of the seven major sects in the martial arts world, and the Daoxuan Palace, also one of the seven major sects.
Young Master Cangyue, the most outstanding rookie of this generation in Dian Cang Sect, and Daozi of Daoxuan Palace seemed to have a fight over some unknown conflict. The latter lost several moves and was defeated by Young Master Cangyue. After that, under the ridicule of Young Master Cangyue, Daozi of Daoxuan Palace left with a gloomy face.
When the former beggar heard the news, his eyes lit up.
He worked very hard that day.
But that night, he found the shopkeeper and asked to leave.
The shopkeeper did not make things difficult for him and settled the wages and the account.
Afterwards, the former beggar left Linjiang City and never returned. No one knew where he went.
It was not until several months later that the former beggar finally found someone from Daoxuan Palace after going through countless hardships .
Outsiders naturally don’t know.
No one knew that the incident at the wedding of Master Cang Yue, a rising star in the martial arts world who had been famous in recent times, which caused his reputation to plummet, actually had such a story hidden behind it.
certainly,
The former beggar named Meng Shijiang and Yang Qingyun were exceptions.
Because one of them was once a party involved.
Yang Qingyun saw everything from the person’s dream.
good,
The former beggar named Meng Shijiang came to Shangshan City.
It is not known whether it was an accident or a coincidence, but the pharmacy where Meng Shijiang used to work was once a competitor of the Liao family pharmacy.
While working as a clerk in a drug store, Meng Shijiang learned about the existence of another rival, the Liao Family Drug Store, and Liao Yuling, the daughter of the Liao family's shopkeeper, from the casual conversations of his fellow clerks. He also learned that Liao Yuling had become a disciple of the Hongxing Martial Arts School in a place called Shangshan City, where she had acquired a wide range of skills.
It is said that the owner of that martial arts school has the strength of the True Qi Realm.
According to the information Meng Shijiang had heard, with the strength of the True Qi Realm, he is already a well-known player in the martial arts world and is someone who can make a name for himself.
The old dog from the Lin family who killed Xiang Ling was also in the True Qi realm.
When Meng Shijiang learned the news, he had already taken it to heart.
later,
Although he used the help of Daoxuan Palace to push the incident at Young Master Cangyue's wedding, pushing Lin Jiaoxue to the brink of disgrace.
But this is just interest, not even close to enough to make them pay the price!
For Xiangling,
Meng Shijiang was not just grateful for saving his life.
There is also that feeling buried deep in my heart.
In the first half of his life, when his family was still well off, he lived a dissolute life, calling women to come and sending them away at will, and never took any woman to heart.
Until he fell into trouble and suffered all kinds of torture, the maid named Xiang Ling appeared in front of him, like a ray of light, illuminating his world.
That was the first time he felt love and understood what love was.
originally,
He also wanted to work hard, revive the family business in the future, and marry her back in style. Compared to Xiangling's life, the price they paid was far from enough! He wanted to practice martial arts! He wanted to gain enough strength to seek justice for Xiangling.
But unfortunately, it is not so easy to practice martial arts. At least you need a powerful master and a strong inheritance.
He wanted to enter Daoxuan Palace.
But the people of Daoxuan Palace only used the information in his hands to disgust Young Master Cangyue, and to vent their anger for the day when Daozi was defeated and insulted by him.
As an older adult, Meng Shijiang didn't care at all.
The same is true for other underworld forces.
The foundation of an adult is already set, so if they embark on the path of martial arts they will not achieve much in the future.
Can teach him,
There are only martial arts schools in various cities.
But Meng Shijiang soon discovered that the owners of martial arts schools in various cities were either people who had just reached the acquired internal strength realm to make a living, or they were people who had reached the true qi realm to run the schools, but they would not accept anyone except the children of wealthy families.
In desperation, he recalled the Hongxing Martial Arts School in Shangshan City that he had heard his colleagues talking about their competitor, the Liao Family Pharmacy.
So he traveled all the way through mountains and rivers and came to Shangshan City to try his luck and see if he could become a disciple of Hongxing Martial Arts School.
That is why,
Meng Shijiang appeared in Shangshan City.
