Chapter 247: Brother-in-law

Out of the gate of the royal compound, it is a bustling street. Just 100 meters in front of you is a wide river around the city, and some shops and houses are lined up along the banks.

It was a cool morning, and Rong Yuanhang walked aimlessly along the river embankment.

The willows are still in place, the breeze is refreshing, the willow forest with lush green branches is dependent on the river, it seems quiet and indifferent, and there is a desolate beauty.

Not far from the embankment, but the market is next to each other, crowded with people, and the long street market has no end in sight. The slabs built along the street sell a wide variety of goods: fruits, silks, baskets, ironware, animal skins, herbs, and so on. People wear brocade clothes or cloth skirts, and the colors are dazzling. Wheeled trucks and wheeled trucks mingle with each other, and the rumbling of chariots and the noise of crowds are endless.

Looking at the world in front of him, Rong Yuanhang only felt that he was outside the situation and could not fit in. A kind of confusion gradually came to my heart: what do I really want? If it hadn't happened that Wang Meng had killed himself in an attempt to seize the gate of the plane, Rong Yuanhang would be willing to advance and retreat with the Wang family, after all, he had already regarded the Wang family as half of his home. But when he learned of Wang Meng's hypocrisy, it was no longer difficult for him to give up on the Wang family. "What should I do?" He kept asking himself.

Rong Yuanhang had excellent physical strength, and walked along the river embankment without stopping, wandering aimlessly in the morning, and unconsciously it was already afternoon. Touching his belly, he felt a little hungry at this time, and was thinking about finding a restaurant to eat casually to fill his stomach, when he suddenly saw a large group of people in front of him in a circle, and a man's miserable ** voice came from the crowd. There was also a woman's voice begging for mercy: "Stop fighting, don't fight, second senior brother." If you fight again, you will die! ”

"Hmph, this kid is looking for death by himself, who is he complaining about?" A man with a vicious voice shouted: "Fight! Hit me hard! ”

"No......" cried the woman.

This place is already close to the most famous square pier in the city. To the north is the blue sea, and near the shore are dotted with large ocean-going ships and sails. There are countless porters and peddlers on the dock square.

The street where Rong Yuanhang walked led directly to the wharf, close to the crowd of people, and there was a restaurant called "Chase Casino" in a row of shops next to it, and some people came out of the gambling hall one after another to see the excitement. It converges with the pedestrians on the street, forming a huge pile of people, but blocking the road ahead.

The crowd continued to hear shouts, women's begs for mercy, and the ** voices of the beaten. Rong Yuanhang didn't want to join in the fun. But the screams of the woman and the beaten man were so terrible that it was heart-wrenching.

He frowned, and also leaned closer to see the situation, although there were many onlookers. But he has Wang Wuxiu. It's easy to squeeze into the innermost circle.

When Rong Yuanhang looked at it, he saw a young man with blue skin and swollen eyes on the ground, and the white robe on his body was probably dirty because it was rolling on the ground. A brightly dressed, beautiful and moving woman was squatting down to support the white-robed man muttering to herself with a sad expression. And beside this man and woman, there were several tall and strong men, these men were clasping their fists and arms, and they were scolding the white-robed man on the ground.

"What happened? Why did so many people beat him? Rong Yuanhang asked a middle-aged man watching beside him.

"Hey." The middle-aged man sneered. With a gloating face, he said, "Didn't you see it? This kid surnamed Jing wants to eat swan meat. Always pestering Tao Meiren, I don't know what crazy I am today, I insist on taking Tao Meiren home, you see, you look at him, and now he is beaten like this and he doesn't give up. Hehe, how can the people in Chase Casino be easy to mess with? ”

"'Tao Meiren' is her, right?" Rong Yuanhang pointed to the woman who was crying with pink eyes, and the woman was crying with the beaten young man.

"This little brother, you must have never been in the casino, and you don't even know Tao Meiren?" The middle-aged man looked at him very unexpectedly, and saw that Rong Yuanhang looked very pleasant, so he explained to him in detail what happened.

It turned out that the beauty in front of her was called Tao Lijing, and she was also called 'Tao Meiren' by good deeds. She is a dealer in the Chase gambling house, and she is also a golden signboard, and many gamblers are attracted to gamble because they covet her beauty. The man who was beaten was one of them, his name was Jing Rutang - at this time, Rong Yuanhang didn't know that Jing Rutang's sister Jing Ruxia was the woman who was going to marry him as a concubine today!

Jing Rutang is twenty-eight years old this year, he is not good at gambling by nature, but it is because of Tao Lijing that he has become addicted to gambling, and every time he wants to see her, he can only enter the Chase casino to gamble once. The two of them were childhood sweethearts, and they lived in the same village when they were young, and they had a good relationship with each other.

But Jing Rutang and Tao Lijing's fate is different, Tao Lijing is two years older than Jing Rutao, when she was fifteen years old, by chance by the owner of the Chase casino Lei Ding as an apprentice, after leaving the school to work as a dealer in the gambling house.

Tao Lijing is beautiful, and naturally there are many admirers around her, and some people regard her as a forbidden person who cannot be indistinguished, and several of her senior brothers are this handful of characters. Tao Lijing still has a boss and a gang behind her, and she can't help it.

The matter of Jing Rutang and Tao Lijing alarmed the boss of Datong Lei Ding, who once told him: If you want to marry Tao Lijing, you must first prepare two thousand taels of blue crystal. β€”β€”Two thousand taels of blue crystal, which is an absolute astronomical amount for ordinary people, but Jing Rutang has not given up, and has been working hard for the goal of marrying Tao Lijing as his wife for several years.

The opportunity finally came, the Wang family came to propose marriage for Rong Yuanhang, and the Jing family asked for a dowry of two thousand taels of blue crystal, but they didn't want their grandmother Wang Meng to agree after seeing Jing Ruxia.

Only then did Jing Rutang come to the casino with his sister's dowry, wanting to find Lei Ding to pay two thousand taels of blue crystal to marry Tao Lijing and go home. But Lei Ding took a gamble as a piece: if he won, Tao Lijing went home with him, and if he lost, two thousand taels of blue crystal stayed, and he went home.

In order to marry a beauty, Jing Rutang agreed, but lost. This loss, he not only lost two thousand taels of blue crystal, but also lost a beauty, how could he be willing to give up? So he stalked and wanted to take Tao Lijing home, but the owner of the gambling house naturally refused. Then the next thing was that Jing Rutang was beaten and kicked out of the gambling house.

Rong Yuanhang only listened to the onlookers to make a general statement, and at this time he didn't know that Jing Rutang was about to become his 'brother-in-law'.

"Smack!" Another kick, this Tao Lijing's senior brother Da Yan stepped on Jing Rutang's lower abdomen fiercely......

"Ahh Jing Rutang screamed. The body bowed reflexively, and a mouthful of blood spurted out with a "poof".

"Rutang! Yes...... Senior Brother Pang, Second Senior Brother, stop fighting, please, don't beat him again, woo woo woo ......" Tao Lijing opened her arms. Like a hen protecting a chicken, she wanted to protect Jing Rutang in her arms, while begging a few senior brothers with tears on her face to stop beating people.

"Senior sister, get out of the way!" The huge man's face was full of hideousness. Pi laughed and shouted: "This kid has to give him an unforgettable lesson, don't abolish him, and he will pester you in the future!" ”

"Don't, don't. Woo woo......" Tao Lijing cried. Seeing that it was useless to ask for a few senior brothers, he turned to Jing Rutang and said, "Rutang, say quickly, don't come over in the future, you know?" Or you'll be killed, say Ah Rutang? ”

That Jing Rutang said weakly: "No, I can't be with you, I'd rather die." I don't have the face to see my father and mother, and even more so to see my miserable sister....... ”

He thinks. My sister was very guilty about marrying someone else as a concubine for him. The status of the concubine is not as good as that of the maid. Recruits come and go, and even the children who give birth to them have the same low status, and the children who come out of the concubine can't raise their heads when they grow up.

"Rutang, woo woo......, why are you so stupid, woo woo......" Tao Lijing just cried in fear.

"Senior sister, get out of the way, this kid, Lao Tzu can't kill him!" The huge man gritted his teeth, and as he spoke, he was about to forcibly drag Tao Lijing away.

"Hey, you're enough, aren't you? If he continues to fight like this, he will really die! Rong Yuanhang, who was watching, couldn't stand it. He walked out of the crowd, came to Jing Rutang and squatted down, pressed a palm against his back, and infused his dark luck vitality into his body to heal him, and then raised his head and said to Da Da Yan and the others: "His liver and spleen have ruptured, and it will be too late if he doesn't rush to treat it." ”

"Boy, who are you?" This is another casino thug shouting and asking.

Rong Yuanhang said: "It doesn't matter who I am, do you want to kill people by doing this?" ”

"Poof," the huge man sneered, "Is this kid's life worth anything?" When you die, someone naturally collects the corpse and wants you to pretend to be benevolent? ”

At this time, Jing Rutang was injected into his body by Rong Yuanhang's thick and soft vitality, and his pale face returned to a trace of blood, and he said weakly: "Thank you brother for your help." Youβ€”you go away, leave me alone. ”

"Rutang, how are you?" Tao Lijing on the side asked nervously.

Seeing that Tao Lijing cared about Jing Rutang, he was jealous, but he shifted his target and shouted to Rong Yuanhang: "Boy, no matter how nosy you are, believe it or not, Lao Tzu split you?" Get lost! ”

"Boom!" kicked it over.

Rong Yuanhang was furious, if it was an ordinary person who was kicked in the head by him, it would definitely explode like a watermelon, it was simply too vicious!

"Click," Rong Yuanhang raised his hand to block, only to hear a crisp sound, and then the huge man suddenly sat down and fell to the ground. Then he let out a long, screaming "oh ......" from the bottom of his throat, and howled loudly with his hands and legs folded.

The calf bone of his right leg was broken and bent strangely, and the shape was very hideous.

"Senior Brother, Grass ......"

"Big guy!?"

"Brother Pang!"

The thugs were furious, and one of them was broken!

"You are looking for death, you dare to provoke our Long Knife Gang!" A big man shouted, and then more than a dozen people gathered around, and some of them carried knives with them at this moment.

Seeing the thrilling scene, the onlookers hurriedly dispersed for fear of harming the fish pond.

"What do you say? The Long Knife Gang? Rong Yuanhang Huo Ran stood up, "Smack!" He kicked away a thug who rushed over with a machete, but his eyes kept staring at the big man who had just spoken. He asked, "Say, are you members of the Long Knife Gang?" ”

"Bang, bang, bang......" jumped up like lightning, a whirlwind leg swept down, and seven or eight thugs were immediately knocked to the ground by Rong Yuanhang, all of whom lost the ability to resist.

"He, he's a martial artist!" A thug screamed in panic, and suddenly the other big men who wanted to surround him didn't dare to move.

Jing Rutang, who was sitting on the ground, saw that Rong Yuanhang beat them to the ground, and he saw that he was relieved of his hatred, and he admired Rong Yuanhang for a while.

"Rutang, who is this person?" Tao Lijing also saw that her eyes were shining. Colorful lotus.

"I don't know." Jing Rutang shook his head gently.

At this time, Rong Yuanhang had already defeated nearly 60 people, and later these men who came out of the gambling house one after another, each with a knife in their hands. But Rong Yuanhang was bare-handed, and someone would fall to the ground with every punch and kick, this was still when he didn't want to cause death, otherwise in just a few tens of seconds, at least half of the people in the gambling house would be killed or injured.

Reaching out, Rong Yuanhang grabbed a burly man and went to the ground - "Meet!" ”

The dust and smoke rose up, and the big man was smashed to the ground like a roll of wool. I can't get up again. Rong Yuanhang turned his head to look, but found that there was no one around him, and the thugs holding machetes were far away. The cowering did not dare to come.

He walked up to a man in blue who was still rolling on the ground in pain, squatted down, looked into the other party's eyes and asked, "Are you from the Long Knife Gang?" ”

The big man in blue was full of fear, knowing that this time he had kicked the board, and he replied in a trembling voice, "Yes, yes." ”

"What's your helper's name? Etino? ”

The man in blue was stunned by the question.

"Say!" Rong Yuanhang's expression was cold.

"Ahh No, it's not. Let's help the master call Lei Ding and Lei Ye. ”

"Smack!" Rong Yuanhang slapped him in the face. scolded: "What Lei Ye, dare to call 'Master' in front of me?" ”

The man in blue screamed miserably, but he didn't dare to reply.

"Stop!" Suddenly, from another part of the street, a large group of people and horses hurriedly came, the leader of whom was wearing a long riding coat, with a bald head and a square face, and a thick neck. The appearance is broad and violent, giving people a very vicious momentum.

The bald man glanced at his subordinates lying all over the ground in disbelief. He arched his hand to Rong Yuanhang and said, "Contemptible Lei Ding, please ask for a great name?" ”

"You are Lei Ding? The so-called leader of the Long Knife Gang? Rong Yuanhang frowned. The person in front of him was just a figure at the pinnacle of martial arts, and compared to every member of the Long Knife Gang five hundred years later, he was not even worthy of carrying shoes.

At that time, the leader of the Long Knife Gang was a nine-tailed Heavenly Fox Divine Beast, calling himself Yi Tiannu, with many characters at the level of the Martial King and many high-level spirit beasts. Like these little minions, including this gang leader, there are only five martial artists, and the rest are all at the martial artist level. Rong Yuanhang now also knew that the Long Knife Gang was not this Long Knife Gang, and when he saw this Lei Ding, he was even more sure that this could not be the predecessor of the Long Knife Gang of the Extreme Imperial Sect.

"Yes, Lei asked himself if he didn't offend you, why did Your Excellency go against my Long Knife Gang?" Lei Ding's bulging eyes are like staring at others if he doesn't stare at people.

Rong Yuanhang looked very unhappy and said, "Why are you staring at me like this?" Do you want to be beaten too? ”

Lei Ding's heavy eyelids blinked again and again, as a proof that he was not glaring. The momentum that Rong Yuanhang revealed at the moment when he raised his head just now made him feel that this person was not simple, and he vaguely guessed that the other party was a powerful person at the level of a martial king. It's just that in order to maintain a trace of majesty in front of the gangsters, he didn't keep his voice down.

"Your Excellency is too unreasonable, isn't it?" Lei Ding said: "Lei asked himself if his cultivation was not enough, many friends on the road gave face, we do a legitimate livelihood, pay attention to harmony and make money, this young man, did I offend you and make you so angry?" ”

"You didn't offend me, but I don't like what you're doing." Rong Yuanhang didn't care, he pointed at Jing Rutang and Tao Lijing and said, "This brother was beaten half to death by your people and refused to stop, so I taught me a lesson." How? Do you have an opinion? ”

"Ahem," Lei Ding coughed dryly, in front of so many people, Rong Yuanhang's words made him a little unable to get off the stage. He deliberately didn't face Rong Yuanhang's face so as not to anger the killing god, but turned his head to look at Tao Lijing......

"Master." Tao Lijing shouted timidly at Lei Ding.

"What's going on? Yes? Lei Ding replied with a dignified face, and asked Tao Lijing, in fact, he fully understood what had happened.

"Master, I'm ......" Tao Lijing was extremely frightened, she secretly glanced at Rong Yuanhang, and her expression was full of asking for help.

Suddenly, Jing Rutang next to him struggled to crawl over, kowtowed to Rong Yuanhang, and said with a longing face: "This young man, you are a good person to the end, plead for the villain, Sister Jing is the villain's fiancΓ©e, but they are under house arrest here and are not allowed to go home, today is the day of my sister-in-law's marriage, I promised the family to take Sister Jing home to drink the wedding wine, I beg you to fulfill the two of us, right?!" ”

He didn't ask Lei Ding, but he asked Rong Yuanhang, a stranger who had seen uneven roads, to get up.

After hearing this, Rong Yuanhang turned his face and asked Tao Lijing, "This girl." Your name is Tao Meiren, right? ”

Tao Lijing's face suddenly turned red, and she replied weakly: "Young man, little girl Tao Lijing." It's not called Tao Meiren. ”

"Oh, Tao Lijing," Rong Yuanhang nodded and said, "Then let me ask you, this brother ...... Taiwan."

"The villain's name is Jing Rutang." Jing Rutang hurriedly introduced himself, Rong Yuanhang has become the only lifesaver at present, and he has to hurry.

"Hmm. Miss Tao, do you like Brother Jing? ”

In front of hundreds of pairs of eyes in the market, Rong Yuanhang felt that he had become a judge in the trial. But he completely ignored Lei Ding, who had an ugly face on the side.

Tao Lijing's face turned red again, but she didn't dare to answer directly, but peeked at Lei Ding.

Rong Yuanhang can also see that this beauty is probably afraid of Lei Ding's obscenity and does not dare to confess. So he said, "It's okay." You said. If you, the master, dare to interfere with it, I promise to beat your master so much that he doesn't even recognize his mother. ”

When Lei Ding heard this, his face was even more pale, and he said, "Your Excellency, ......"

"You shut up," Rong Yuanhang glared, interrupted him unceremoniously, and said, "I didn't ask you now!" ”

Lei Ding's face turned blue and white for a while, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Excellency, don't deceive people too much!" ”

"Bang!"

Rong Yuanhang kicked out like lightning. Lei Ding's burly body suddenly flew upside down like a broken kite, and the crowd of onlookers exclaimed. He fell heavily into the pile.

"Helper!"

"Lei Ye!"

"Damn, fight with him!"

……

When the gang members saw that their gang leader was humiliated, they immediately geared up and shouted, but none of them dared to really come forward and fight hard. Just kidding, Lei Ye is a figure at the peak of martial arts, but he was kicked away by others, and his little arms and legs went up, and he was not pinched to death like an ant? So they all drank as hard as they could, but no one came forward.

Tao Lijing's beautiful eyes widened, she was so shocked that she covered her mouth with her hands, and she couldn't speak for a long time, and Jing Rutang looked at Rong Yuanhang and suddenly had a feeling of looking up to the mountains, revealing a very worshipful gaze.

"Now it's pure, Miss Tao, tell me, do you like him?" Rong Yuanhang flicked his sleeves and asked neatly...... Actually, he just used his feet instead of his hands.

"I, I...... Like. Tao Lijing's words were almost inaudible to herself, but Rong Yuanhang heard them. Then, Tao Lijing said worriedly: "But ......, Shaoxia, thank you for your help, it is impossible for me to follow Rutang." ”

"Why? Sister Jing, why?? Jing Rutang asked unwillingly.

Tao Lijing glanced at Lei Ding's direction in fear, but she didn't see anyone, she didn't know that Lei Ding was hiding in the crowd at this time and didn't dare to come out, Rong Yuanhang's kick almost killed him, making him scared, but he didn't want to leave in disgrace, so he had to lie down in the arms of his subordinates and pretend to be dead.

Rong Yuanhang said: "You don't have to worry about that guy, since I have interfered in this matter, I will simply be a good person to the end, so that you have no worries." Miss Tao, don't be afraid, say it, are you willing to talk to this ...... What's your name? ”

"Rutang, the small one is called Jing Rutang."

"By the way, Jing Rutang, Miss Tao, you ......"

"I do!" Tao Lijing suddenly spoke bravely.

"Sister Jing, really?" Jing Rutang couldn't help but be overjoyed! An invisible force made him struggle to his feet.

Tao Lijing nodded shyly.

"Buzz ......"

At this time, the whole street was in an uproar.

"Okay, you have a lover and finally become married, go back." Rong Yuanhang swept around, this was not a solution, and ordered: "Miss Tao, Brother Jing is injured, find him a carriage to send him back to recuperate for a few days." ”

"I'm fine, Sister Jing, let's go?" Jing Rutang said happily. Tao Lijing nodded, helping him to find a carriage, and suddenly Jing Rutang stopped and asked, "Shaoxia, dare to ask your honorable name?" ”

"No, you can go back." Rong Yuanhang waved his hand.

Jing Rutang knelt down with a puff and said, "Young man is very kind, Rutang doesn't know how to repay him in the future, and I hope that the young man will give him a great name?!" ”

Rong Yuanhang originally wanted to go back and warn Lei Ding to let him not embarrass these two people, but after thinking about it, if he left like this, this Lei Ding would most likely not give up and continue to trouble them in the future. So he whispered: "I don't need you to repay anything, Brother Jing, my surname is Rong, and my name is Yuanhang." ”

"It turns out that Engong's surname is Rong," Jing Rutang said again: "Engong, today is the joy of her sister's marriage, and I want to invite Engong back to the cold house to drink a glass of wine, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

"Marry your sister?" Rong Yuanhang was stunned, but he didn't think about anything else. - Jing Rutang's sister is married to him, but he himself has completely forgotten about the matter of concubines.

"Yes, Engong, I hope you can come and drink a glass of wine." Jing Rutang looked at him longingly.

Rong Yuanhang thought about it, be a good person to the end, and go with him to learn more about the situation of these two people, which is also a deterrent to Lei Ding, he doesn't want to leave trouble for the two of them, and it is also a good thing to be able to solve this trouble. So he should come down: "Okay, then I will be cheeky and go to your mansion to ask for a cup of happy wine to drink." (To be continued......)
