Chapter 72: It's all in plain sight

Hongying cleaned Wei Jingruo's body, and when she saw the bruises and scars on Wei Jingruo's body, she felt a little distressed.

"Does it hurt?" Hongying gently wiped Wei Jingruo. There is no shortage of suffering people in this world, regardless of age. Once upon a time, she was also in pain and lived a life of being beaten and scolded at will.

"It hurt at first, but then I didn't feel it anymore. Wei Jingruo seemed to have no feelings, and Ren Hongying scrubbed her for her.

The first time she was beaten was when she was six years old! When her mother had just died, she ran to her father's room crying and begging for comfort. But her father kicked her to the ground.

Her father said she was a wild seed and that he never wanted to see her again in his life.

At that time, she cried very much, and she couldn't understand why her father, who had always loved her, would do that to her.

Later, when I grew up, I realized that because my mother was a prostitute and had an affair with someone else, she was a wild seed.

That night, she was thrown into the firewood room by her father's order, and she spent the next ten years in the cold and dark firewood room.

Hongying looked at the girl who didn't care about the pain in a trance, and actually remembered herself when she was young. She has been locked in a cold courtyard since she was sensible, and someone will come to teach her the rules every day, but if she does something wrong, she will attract a burst of beatings and scolding. But then she learned to be obedient, and as long as she did what they said, she wouldn't be beaten.

"You are a hard-working child, but fortunately, you met Mr. Mo, and since he brought you back, he must have taken you in. Hongying said softly.

The man was a well-meaning man who brought people like her out of the slums without asking about her terrible past.

Thinking of him, a happy smile gradually appeared on Hongying's delicate face.

Wei Jingruo was dressed in plain white and was brought out by Hongying. A pair of sheared autumn eyes, Chu Chu is moving, some indifference that does not belong to her age, and she has already shown her appearance at a young age. Dressed in white, she seems to be out of place with her surroundings, like a fairy who doesn't eat fireworks in the world.

"Wei Jingruo thanked Mr. for saving his life!" Wei Jingruo said heartily. She is sincerely grateful to Mo Yunshan, who not only saved her from the hands of those people, but also maintained her dignity.

Wei Jingruo stood there straight, like a green bamboo, proud of his bones. How can a person like her endure the shame of being stripped naked.

"Now that we're all here, let's stay in peace in the future! Don't think too much about the past!" Mo Yunshan said.

Wei Jing must have suffered a lot to become like this, if he can help, he can help!

"I don't know, but Mr. Mo from the Mercenary Guild?" Wei Jingruo raised her head, and a face that captivated the country and the city was seen by everyone.

"It's me!" Mo Yunshan was surprised, he didn't ask like that.

"When I was at Wei's house, I heard them say that they were going to do something to the Mercenary Guild tonight!" Wei Jingruo said. She had overheard this, and those people didn't intend to hide it from her, and they said it in front of her.

"What?" Mo Yunshan stood up directly in shock.

In the Colosseum. On a table, two middle-aged men sat together, one of them was dressed in black, exuding an aura of not being angry but threatening, like a king in the night. The other was dressed in a coarse cloth short coat, but his momentum was neither humble nor arrogant.

These two people are Huo Xingyu and Zhang Lingcang.

Huo Xingyu devoured the skewers in his hand and picked up another skewer. He had also paid attention to this Wanling Pavilion before, and he had heard people talk about various situations in the Colosseum. But when I saw it with my own eyes, I decided to be a little shocked.

It's crowded and dark, and it looks eerie, mysterious and fascinating. There were people in the place not far away who were watching the beasts fight, and many of them he recognized as people from several powerful families in Gu Cangcheng. The tables were even more packed, and the gamblers were betting feverishly. And then there's these things to eat, which make people hungry when they smell it.

"I don't know what's going on with this Ten Thousand Souls Pavilion, it has suddenly become different!" Huo Xingyu said sullenly. He also had many casinos, green buildings and other businesses under his command, but none of them were as hot as this Ten Thousand Souls.

Zhang Lingcang shook his head and smiled, the two had known each other for many years, and he naturally knew what Huo Xingyu was thinking. In fact, Huo Xingyu is powerful and domineering in front of people, but he is very stingy in private, and he is always careful. often complains that the four major families are rampant and domineering, and their business is bigger than that of the Xingyu Gang, and they have robbed the Xingyu Gang of a lot of business.

"That's not it, these delicious things were all thought up by Eun Gong alone. Relying on these things alone, Wanling Pavilion's daily income is probably comparable to that of one of your shops!" Zhang Lingcang said with a smile.

Speaking of Mo Yunshan, he is really an amazing person. In the past, although the Qian family firm was able to work against the four great families, it was always a little worse than the four great families in business. Since Mo Yunshan came, the Qian family firm was changed to Wanling Pavilion, and the income of one day alone was comparable to the income of the four great families for two or three days. Moreover, the four great families have to learn from the appearance of Wanling Pavilion to do business.

Although the business of the four great families has been much better than before after learning from Wanling Pavilion to do business, there is always a gap compared to Wanling Pavilion.

Zhang Lingcang took a bite of the skewers, remembering what Mo Yunshan had said this morning, and he didn't know what kind of place could have such delicious food.

"Is that Mr. Mo the Engong you are talking about?" asked Huo Xingyu. Thinking that Zhang Lingcang rejected him several times, but promised to be Mo Yunshan's guard, Huo Xingyu was still a little unhappy in his heart, it felt like his things were snatched away by others.

"How do you know?" Zhang Lingcang didn't expect Huo Xingyu to actually know about Mo Yunshan.

Huo Xingyu glanced at him, "Today, your stupid brother brought him to Xingyu to help find me!"

"Why did they come to you?" asked Zhang Lingcang curiously. It stands to reason that there shouldn't be any intersection between Mo Yunshan and the Xingyu Gang.

Huo Xingyu saw Zhang Lingcang's curious look and deliberately didn't say anything. "By the way, what good did he give you, so that you willingly be his guard. I'll give you double as much, I'll Xingyu help me give you a hall master. ”

"I just wanted to repay him for saving his life, what's the benefit?" Zhang Lingcang smiled indifferently.

There are some things he doesn't plan to tell Huo Xingyu.

Everyone has their own ideas, and Zhang Lingcang doesn't say that Huo Xingyu doesn't plan to delve into it.

"Once you get acquainted, I have to remind you, you repay your kindness, don't sacrifice yourself when disaster comes!" Huo Xingyu said meaningfully. Now Mo Yunshan seems to be safe and sound, but will the four great families and the imperial court really allow a new force to rise?

Zhang Lingcang lowered his eyes, he naturally knew what Huo Xingyu meant.

"The storm is coming, and your Xingyu Gang should be careful. Zhang Lingcang said.

The two glanced at each other, both of them were smart people. It's all in plain sight.
