Chapter 31: Seongnam Scar
Early the next morning, when Cheng Yangxi was still asleep, the voice of the maid sounded at the door: "Uncle, the eldest lady asked me to wake you up, and you are ready to leave for the Ethereal Pavilion." β
Cheng Yangxi responded, grabbed the messy hair on his head, and got up in the laziness.
Let the maid dress and comb his hair, and when he was done, he yawned and came to his senses.
Out of the door, a luxurious carriage was parked at the door of Murong Mansion, and Murong Di was standing next to the carriage waiting for her.
Cheng Yangxi was a little reluctant and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were still waiting outside." β
Murong Di shook his head and said, "It's okay, husband, get in the car!"
Watching Murong Di climb into the carriage, Cheng Yangxi felt quite strange in his heart.
This rich lady is really good to herself, and she doesn't have a rich lady's shelf.
Or, can you try to get along?
People are beautiful and so polite to themselves, what else can they ask for?
As for a little caution and ruthlessness, this kind of thing-
You can't blame her entirely, right?
In this kind of world where strength is respected, if you are still as simple as a little girl, just say that this time, even if you can get there, the position of the master of the Ethereal Pavilion will change hands!
Even if it is not easy to master, she will not be able to take charge of the Ethereal Pavilion.
The master of a sect must have some means.
Cheng Yangxi thought of Zhang Chunhua, Sima Yi's wife during the Three Kingdoms period.
Thinking of this, Cheng Yangxi secretly decided, or, try to change his mentality and be with her?
Besides, she has become a relative to herself and has the love of husband and wife.
made a decision, Cheng Yangxi did not twist and jumped into the carriage.
In the carriage, there was a table full of meals.
Cheng Yangxi sat down, and Murong Di said apologetically: "Time is pressing, let's rush over and eat at the same time!"
Cheng Yangxi smiled: "It's okay, it's all because I got up too late, otherwise it wouldn't be like this." β
While eating, Cheng Yangxi asked, "If I go to the Ethereal Pavilion, what will I do? I can't just cultivate, right? After all, if I cultivate for twelve hours a day, it's quite boring." β
Murong Di said: "I have also thought about this matter. If your husband is not afraid of being tired, I will arrange for you to be a deacon in the deacon hall?"
"What does a deacon do?" asked Cheng Yangxi.
Murong Di explained: "We have a group of people in the Ethereal Pavilion, and it is impossible for us to only cultivate and do nothing else. Otherwise, it won't be able to survive. After all, so many people are a huge expense. β
"So, in addition to owning a large piece of land for production, we will also let our disciples do some other things. β
"These, colloquially known as tasks. β
"Each task will earn a certain amount of money and food, the sect will draw fifty percent, and the disciple will take the remaining fifty percent. β
"At the same time, we will also lend out some of the money and then collect interest. β
"The so-called deacon hall is responsible for managing these things. β
A deacon, on the other hand, is the one who distributes these things to the disciples who want to complete the task. β
Cheng Yangxi suddenly realized: "It turns out that these are these, I understand, that's all!"
Coming to the Ethereal Pavilion, Murong Di arranged for an outer disciple to take Cheng Yangxi to the deacon hall to report.
After the deacons in the deacon hall learned that Cheng Yangxi was his uncle, they all respected him very much and were eager to offer him up.
I still remember what happened yesterday.
At this time, they didn't dare to offend Murong Di in the slightest.
Cheng Yangxi is her husband, so naturally she can't afford to offend!
Cheng Yangxi sat alone in the main hall of the deacon's hall, drinking tea and eating desserts.
Seeing the disciples coming and going, and the deacons busy, Cheng Yangxi sighed a little in his heart.
He felt guilty.
But when he got up and went over to ask the deacons if they had anything to do, the deacons hurried him back and told him to eat and drink!
Cheng Yangxi felt a little ridiculous.
Forget it, go find the storage place of the Ethereal Pavilion, and find medicinal materials for Murong Xiao to treat the withering of the meridians!
As soon as I walked out of the deacon hall, I saw three disciples with blood stains on their bodies, supporting each other and walking over.
Their aura is extremely declining.
It seems that he rushed back with all his might.
Cheng Yangxi rolled his eyes, followed them and turned back.
The deacons of the deacon's hall also noticed the situation of the three disciples.
One of the deaconss walked briskly.
Seeing this, the three disciples hurriedly saluted.
The deacons stopped them, took out a few bottles and cans from the storage bag around her waist, poured out some pills, and told them to take them.
The three disciples thanked them and took the pill.
Then the deaconess said, "What mission did you take, and what happened?"
One of the disciples said with a depressed head: "Deacon, we have taken on the task of recovering the borrowed money and grain from Scar in the south of the city. They are too powerful, there are too many people, and the three of us can't beat them. The money was not returned, and it was beaten out. β
The deaconess sighed lightly and said, "I see. In this matter, it seems that the pavilion master or elder has to come out in person. β
The three disciples said in unison: "It's all to blame for the incompetence of the disciples!"
Seeing this, Cheng Yangxi walked up and said, "It's just to recover the borrowed money and food, and you still need the elders and even the pavilion master to go in person?
Seeing this, the deacons forced a smile and said, "Uncle, this is something that can't be helped. When Seongnam Scar originally borrowed money, the strength of the Axe Gang was still very low. Now that five years have passed, their strength has increased a lot! Ordinary disciples have passed, and you have seen it, just like the three of them. β
"If you send too many disciples over, you won't be able to do it. Although they borrowed a lot of money and grain, they said that they had more and more, and that they had said less, five hundred taels. β
"The most critical problem is that they are in the city. The imperial court is extremely strict with the management of the major sects, and it is forbidden for a large number of disciples of any sect to flood into the city at once. β
"Therefore, I can only let the pavilion master and the elders go. Or, just give up. Over the years, it has not been uncommon for us to give up on recovering money and grain because of similar things. β
"Understood. Cheng Yangxi nodded and said, "Leave this task to me, I'll take it back." β
"Absolutely not!" Hearing Cheng Yangxi say this, the deacons were shocked and said, "Uncle, Scar is an outlaw, you-"
Before she finished her words, Cheng Yangxi smiled and said, "It's decided like this, I'll look at it." Seongnam Scar, right?"
Seeing that Cheng Yangxi had decided, the deaconess gritted her teeth and said, "Since my uncle is going, it's okay, I'll arrange a task and let a few skilled disciplesββ"
Cheng Yangxi waved his hand, turned around and walked: "No need, I'll just go alone." β
The deacons were busy catching up, but among the deacons, an old man came up, stopped her, and said with a smile: "Why are you so stupid? He is an uncle, and if you want to behave in front of our pavilion master, you have to give him a chance!"
The deacons hurriedly said, "I know!
The old man looked at the deacons with a funny face and said, "What a elm head!" Send a few skilled disciples to quietly follow him, and when something happens to him, you can rescue him immediately. In addition, I will apply for the matter of Seongnam Scar upwards. β
