Chapter Twenty-Three: Receiving Disciples
The family at the door said respectfully: "May I ask the son's surname, and the small one is good to go in and report." β
Duan Yi said arrogantly: "Your uncle and I are Duan Yi who is the 'No. 1 in the world in martial arts', quickly ask Xie Ninghua to come out and pick me up." β
These family members are all people who deceive the good and fear the evil, where would they believe that the person in front of them is Duan Yi, who is "the best in the world in martial arts", which kid must be pretending to be.
A hideous-looking family member shouted: "Where did you come from, stinky boy, don't get out quickly, if it weren't for the fact that today is the master's happy day, you will definitely cut off your ears." β
"Then it depends on whether you have the ability to do it."
The hideous-looking family shouted: "Stinky boy, then let you taste the taste of your grandfather's big knife." β
A knife slashed at Duan Yi, and suddenly, a gust of wind blew, Duan Yi was gone, at this time, he only felt a sharp pain in his left ear, and he reached out to cover the wound, but his left ear was gone, and he screamed.
Seeing this, the rest of the family members all drew their knives and slashed at them, Duan Yi's figure was fluttering, and these family members didn't see what was going on, and their left ear had already fallen to the ground. All of them covered their wounds, screamed in pain, threw down the knife in their hands and ran inside.
These family members don't even have internal strength, and they are not third-rate, where can they see Duan Yi's shot and figure.
Gao Zhanhua saw Duan Yi so powerful from a distance, and his heart was very happy: "You evil slaves are powerful and oppressive on weekdays, and often come to our inn to eat overlord meals, and now someone finally cleans you up." This Duan Daxia seems to have chopped off the ears of these people with a single move, if I can learn his kung fu, do I still need to be afraid of these wicked people! β
Several family members covered the bloody wounds, and said with sad faces: "Master, the big thing is not good, there is a Duan Yi who claims to be the 'No. 1 in the world in martial arts', and he has come to smash the field, we have all cut off our ears by him, sir, you have to be the master of the slaves." β
Xie Ninghua was stunned, anyone who dared to go against him in the past 20 years or so was a dead end, and who was afraid of his life today.
shouted: "Dare to go against me, Lao Tzu picked his skin." β
"I dare to go against you, I, Duan Yi, are specifically against the wicked people in the world."
Everyone only felt a gust of wind blowing, and Duan Yi appeared in front of them. Gao Zhanhua also ran in.
I saw that this Xie Ninghua was nearly fifty years old, short and fat, very much like a rich man who eats, drinks and has fun every day, and is wearing the groom's clothes at this time.
"You are Duan Yi who is the 'No. 1 in the world in martial arts'?"
"It's like a fake."
"It doesn't matter if you are a real Duan Yi or a fake Duan Yi, I will turn you into a dead Duan Yi immediately," immediately slashed at Duan Yi with his sword, in fact, he didn't believe that he would be so unlucky to run into the real Duan Yi.
Xie Ninghua saw Duan Yi's figure flash, and then he had a sharp pain in his left ear, and his body was dotted with acupoints. I didn't even see how the other party made a move, and I already believed that this person was Duan Yi.
Duan Yi grabbed his throat with his hand and said, "Quickly release Liao Xiya, or I will break your neck." β
"Big ...... Heroes spare their lives, what are you all doing, don't release people quickly. β
After a while, I saw a girl who was only fourteen years old running out, with a good appearance, still wearing the bride's clothes, and her eyes were red and swollen, probably crying and swollen.
Liao Xiya saw the enemy who killed his father standing motionless, and ran forward frantically to punch and kick, and the family members didn't dare to move when they saw Duan Yi, the evil star, present.
Gao Zhanhua said: "Miss Liao, this is Duan Yi Duan's hero, who is here to rescue you." β
Liao Xiya slowly stopped, knelt down and kowtowed to Duan Yi, and cried: "Thank you Daxia for saving me, my father was killed by this Xie Ninghua with a wicked slave, I beg Daxia to make decisions for the little girl!" β
Duan Yi planned to take them back first, first find out about Xie Ninghua's other evil deeds, and then send them to the county Yaming for canonical punishment, and if the county order dared to cover them up on the spot, they would clean it up together.
Gao Zhanhua took Duan Yi to Liao Laohan's house, only to see Liao Laohan's body on a bed, Liao Bifei crying on the side, Liao Xiya saw his father, lying on his body and crying bitterly.
Duan Yi followed Liao Laohan's house for a day and a night, and through Liao Bifei's questioning, Duan Yi finally determined the truth of the whole thing.
It turned out that Xie Ninghua coveted Liao Xiya's beauty and wanted to be a concubine, but Liao Laohan and Liao Xiya refused, so they secretly poisoned Liao Bifei. This kind of poison is not easy to kill for a while, but the poisoned person is extremely painful, and Lang Zhong, who is more skilled in medicine, can have the ability to detoxify, but the antidote is more expensive, so Liao Laohan has to borrow a lot of money to treat his son.
Liao Laohan's savings over the years only add up to 30 taels of silver, and he only borrowed more than 10 taels from others, of which Gao Zhanhua lent him 7 taels, and had no choice but to borrow 50 taels of silver from Xie Ninghua to save his son's life, with a monthly interest of 100%.
Duan Yi has seen a lot of people who play such conspiracy and tricks to rob them, and he has heard even more, and he will never let go of such a wicked person.
Through three days of investigation, Duan Yi found that among Xie Ninghua's twenty-six concubines, at least more than ten of them were forcibly taken into concubines through various dirty means, which killed many people over the years. So Xie Ninghua was mentioned to the county office, and Gao Zhanhua and the Liao family brothers and sisters were asked to bring Liao Laohan's body and place it in the county office, and Xie Ninghua's various charges were announced one by one in front of all the officials in the county government.
The county magistrate and this Xie Ninghua themselves were in cahoots, but all the officials were beaten by Duan Yi and begged for mercy, for their own lives, how dare they not sentence Xie Ninghua to death in accordance with the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, and escorted him to the execution ground on the spot. After this thief was executed, all the people applauded, and many people even knelt down and kowtowed to Duan Yi, thanking him for getting rid of Tongcheng County, a great harm that had been rampant for many years.
Outside Tongcheng County, in front of the grave where Liao Laohan had just been buried, Liao Bifei and Liao Xiya wore linen and filial piety, burning paper.
"Dad, Duan Daxia has already avenged you, my brother and I will live a good life in the future, you rest in peace!" Although this girl who was only fourteen years old had been hit hard, her heart was very strong.
At this time, Liao Xiya knelt down to Duan Yi and said, "Duan Daxia, your great kindness, the little girl and the elder brother are unforgettable. If the hero doesn't dislike it, the little girl is willing to ......"
I saw Liao Xiya gritted her teeth, as if she had made a lot of determination, and said, "The little girl is willing to make a promise with her body!" Immediately, his face was flushed and his head was lowered.
Duan Yi was surprised: I didn't expect that she would make a promise in order to repay her kindness, if she likes herself, you can consider it, if it is just to repay her kindness, then she will definitely not accept it.
Gao Zhan, who was on the side, was very anxious when he heard this, the woman he liked actually wanted to promise his benefactor, but compared with his benefactor, one was in the sky and the other was underground, which was too far behind, and he couldn't help but feel ashamed.
Duan Yi said: "Miss Liao, I already have a fiancΓ©e. β
"Duan Daxia, the little girl is willing to be your concubine."
"Miss Liao, even if you want to repay the favor, you don't have to promise such a method, right?"
"The little girl has no strengths, her family is poor, except for making promises with herself, I can't think of any other way to repay Duan Daxia's great kindness."
Hearing that Liao Xiya only made a personal promise to repay his kindness, not because he liked himself, Duan Yi breathed a sigh of relief and was also slightly disappointed.
Gao Zhanhua took the opportunity to say: "Miss Liao, you can ask Duan Daxia to accept you as an apprentice, learn a good martial arts, and help Duan Daxia to act chivalrous and righteous in the rivers and lakes in the future, isn't it also to repay Duan Daxia?" β
As he spoke, he also knelt down: "Duan Daxia, please accept me as an apprentice, I want to be chivalrous and righteous like Duan Daxia, and eliminate violence and peace." β
Liao Xiya followed: "Duan Daxia, you will accept me as a concubine and let me serve you in the future." If you don't want to, then take me as an apprentice, and follow you in chivalrous deeds in the future. β
Liao Bifei also knelt down and begged to be accepted as an apprentice.
Duan Yi really didn't think about accepting apprentices before, and pondered in his heart: Like the Golden Wheel Dharma King, there are many martial arts masters who have their own gangs or apprentices, and the Mongolian 'Fengyuntang' is even more masterful, even if he cultivates the Jiuyang Divine Skill to the fullest, he can only deal with a top master like the Golden Wheel Dharma King at the same time, after all, he is alone and weak, if he can accept a few apprentices and learn martial arts well, it is a team, the strength of the team is always stronger than the strength of his own person, and he will not suffer a loss if he accepts apprentices.
"It's not impossible for me to accept you as disciples, I first set up two rules: first, all my disciples must not do evil in the future, and they will bully the weak; Second, without my permission, you must not teach others the martial arts I teach you or leak them out. If there is a violation, the portal will be cleared. Can you do it? β
The three of them were overjoyed when they heard this: "When the apprentice visits the master, the apprentice must strictly abide by the door rules." β
Unexpectedly accepted three apprentices, these three apprentices were all of good character, and Duan Yi was also very happy. But which of these three people is better to be the eldest brother? Gao Zhanhua is the oldest, so let him be the eldest brother.
"Apprentices, get up, among the three of you, Gao Zhanhua is the oldest, he is your senior brother, Liao Bifei is the second senior brother, and Liao Xiya is your little junior sister."
These three people are very happy, and the happiest of them is Gao Zhanhua, he not only worshiped Duan Yi, who is the 'No. 1 in the world in martial arts', as a master, but also avoided the woman he liked from promising his benefactor to him, and he would treat her well in the future, which should be able to impress her.
