Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Human Heart Is Blacker Than Ink

After a few more days, Xiao Man trained them well, so it wasn't Xiao Man who hastily passed on some Qi training methods to them. As for whether they will succeed in cultivation, it depends on their lives. After a few days, Xiaoman had almost asked about everything, and he decided to leave. During the meal, Xiao Man told them his thoughts, and for a while these people were a little reluctant.

"Xiaoman, do you really want to leave? Or you will stay with us! ”

"I'm not like you, this is your home. My home is not here, I'm going to go through it. When I get stronger, I will be able to take my parents back and reunite with my family. ”

When everyone heard him say this, it was not easy to continue to keep him, and they wished him success and success.

"Xiaoman, you should be a cultivator, right? I was fortunate enough to meet once, and since then I have also been a well-known figure in our village, so they chose me to be the village head, and it is the same now. But the cultivators I've seen are completely different from you, they're not like us at all. I'm surprised that you get along with us so well, can I ask you something?"

"Brother Wang, you say. ”

"I heard that the parents here have recently changed people. They all said this man was good, and if you were from there, could you tell him about us? Let's see if we can go back, you can't be a bandit in the mountains for a lifetime. ”

"I made a note of it. ”

Everyone sent Xiaoman all the way to the bottom of the mountain before returning to the mountain. Xiao Man turned over and planned to go to the parent officer. After all, I promised others, and I just didn't have any goals. According to the direction they pointed, Xiaoman set off all the way south, passing through several villages, and there were only a few people in the villages. This made Xiao Man feel worse about the previous official, and after walking for a long time, Xiao Man finally saw a larger city when it was getting dark. This should be the place.

After some interrogation, Xiaoman entered the city, and when he entered the city, Xiaoman found that it was prosperous. This should be the credit of the current officials, and I asked a few people. Their rhetoric is almost the same, just a few words of praise. Xiaoman finally found out the address of his parents.

groped all the way to the door of his house and knocked lightly. The door opened, and an old man of about fifty years old came out.

"Little one, you knocked on the door?"

"I knocked it, I want to see your master. ”

"What are you looking for? It's time for the lord to rest. ”

"Can you go back and report it? ”

"Then you wait a minute. ”

With that, the door was closed again. After a while, the old man returned.

"My lord invites you in. ”

"Thank you. ”

Xiaoman went all the way to the study under the leadership of the old man. The old man knocked on the door, and the word came in, and Xiaoman pushed the door in. The official in front of him was a little emaciated and was reviewing the documents. Seeing Xiao Manlai stop what he was doing, he asked

"I heard that you want to avenge your grievances, where does the grievances come from?"

"It's not me who has been wronged, I'm redressing people's grievances. ”

"For whom?"

"A bunch of bandits. ”

"What's wrong with the bandits?"

"Listen to me. ”

After listening carefully to Xiaoman's words, the official's face was ugly.

"Is there really such a thing? Officials protect each other and eat the disaster money of the imperial court. Little brother, don't worry, I will definitely take care of these things, where are the villagers. ”

"Wolf Rock Mountain. ”

"I'll do it tomorrow. ”

Then Xiaoman left.

"It seems that there are still a lot of good people in the world. This is a good official, you say yes, Lord Flame Soul?"

"Not necessarily, it is difficult to draw dragons and tigers, and it is difficult to draw bones, and you don't know your heart when you know people. ”

"You're so shady, I won't tell you. ”

I took Xiaotian around, ate some food, and found an inn to live in. After Xiaoman's wandering, he found that this city was not like Chengyi's city, and this city was more advocating literature. All the famous places in and out of the city were filled with all sorts of poems by some literati. Xiaoman took a look at a lot of descriptions of the scenery of spring and autumn, and more of them were men and women, and some Xiaoman looked at it with a burst of sourness.

The day after Xiaoman found the official, a large group of people left the city. Xiaoman was even more relieved when he saw this kind of scene, this should be to investigate the situation. After playing for a few more days, Mr. Xiaoman felt that there were a pair of eyes staring at him behind him. But when he turned around, he couldn't see anything. After almost going around the city and outside the city, Xiao Man felt that it was not interesting. He decided to go on a journey that would only bring out his potential by fighting. The last time he fought with the beast for so long, his anger grew rapidly. He felt that in a few months he should be able to break through to level seven.

Riding on the horse, Xiaoman continued to set off towards the next city. Xiaoman, who was on horseback, was not idle, and he was a little slack off during this period of time. He himself hasn't practiced boxing for a long time. Luck allowed the qi to gather on the soles of his feet, and he just stood on horseback and practiced boxing. At first he was still shaky, but after slowly getting used to it, he felt that it was a good feeling.

"I said boy, why are you trying so hard to get stronger?"

"This should be a world of strength, and I can only reason with others after I become strong. Only then can people listen to me reason. When the time comes, I'll go and bring my dad back. And then I stayed in the village and protected it. ”

"It's really a simple ideal, do you know what your father and mother cultivated?"

"What cultivation?"

"Divine Mansion Realm. Do you know how strong the Divine Mansion Sutra is? Just the city lord of the Beast City, your mother can kill him with a breath. ”

"Stinky boy, you're at a loss, you don't even know the division of the realm, right?"

Xiao Man smiled shyly, he really didn't know.

"Stinky boy, who taught you. I don't even know about this. ”

"The second grandfather taught me. ”

"This old fool, I didn't tell you this. Forget it, the old man will help you popularize knowledge today, and you will be embarrassed when you go out. The realm is divided into meticulous, subtle, practicing qi, riding the wind, imperial weapons, springs, building bridges, gods, gods, gods, gods, gods. ”

"So much?"

"There's still up, you can't reach it for the time being. Basically, if you can become a god, you can run rampant in the starry sky, and now you are not even a scumbag. ”

"I'll try. ”

"It's okay not to be hit. ”

"Alright, Lord Flame Soul. Don't talk, I'm going to practice boxing. ”

Let the horse walk, Xiaoman practiced boxing on horseback. No matter how the horse was bumpy, he kept nailing it to the horse's back, and before he knew it, it was already dark. At this time, they happened to be at the foot of a mountain, and Xiao Man decided to stay at the foot of the mountain for one night tonight. This time was not like the last time, he was very well prepared. There was a lot of food in the tent, and one person and one dog entered the tent after setting up the tent. Xiaotian was still as lazy as ever, and went to sleep after entering the tent. Xiao Man sat on the spot and entered the state of divine soul cultivation. The night passed peacefully, and Xiao Man woke up from his cultivation. Stretching his waist and shouting, Xiao Tian got out of the tent, just packed up his things and hung them on horseback, and a few people came down from the mountain. The men were all armed and looked like they had come out hunting.

"My lord sent us a message saying that he had caught the No. 100 mountain bandit, is it really fake?"

"You don't care about him, you just can't get the money. We pressed them to go to the imperial city, and we would not have to worry about eating and drinking for the rest of our lives. ”

As soon as Xiaoman heard the word mountain bandit, he felt that something was wrong, and he was still a hundred and ten people. It won't be Brother Wang.

"A few uncles, I heard that you caught the mountain bandits, or a hundred people, real and fake, where did you catch them?"

"Isn't it in the direction you came from, to say that the bandits are too arrogant now, they are already so large-scale. I heard that we are already on the road, and we are going to the previous city to meet them. This time he has made such a great contribution, and it is not just around the corner for adults to be promoted to become rich. ”

"Thank you. ”

Xiaoman got on the horse and turned the horse's head. He's going back, he's going to ask why. Running wildly, he finally saw the familiar city. Not long after he went out, the soldiers defending the city still knew him. It didn't take much effort for him to go in. Xiaoman entered the city and stood guard outside the official's house. I found a hidden place to hide, and when it was dark, the official finally returned. Seeing the smile on his face, he should be in a good mood, and Xiaoman did not act rashly. When it was completely dark, Xiaoman climbed over the wall and entered the house, Xiaoman came once, and he still remembered the road. I walked all the way to the study, and when I got to the study, I opened the door and entered.

The light in the study was still on, but the person was gone. After looking for no one inside and out, he kicked the stool where the official was sitting as he left in a hurry. After kicking the book screen behind him, Xiao Man walked over and saw a secret door on the ground. Without thinking about it, Xiaoman walked in, and there were several prisons below, all of which were holding dying people. Further inside, there were several rooms filled with gold, silver, and jewelry.

"Dog officer. ”

Xiao Man continued to walk, and he heard a voice. Silently came to the room where the sound came from. Xiao Man saw a scene that he would never forget, the dozen or so flower-aged girls in the room had no clothes, and they were all tied up one by one. At this time, this good official in people's mouths is busy working. He also had a leather whip in his hand. While slapping and scolding in his mouth.

"Slut, you said you promised me a long time ago. Do you have to be strong with Lao Tzu to be cool?"

The girl seemed to be numb, and not a single tear was shed. It's just that her empty eyes can see her desire to die. Because he was so focused, he didn't even notice that Xiaoman sneaked around his back.

Xiao Man kicked him out a long way with a flying kick, and then Xiao Man walked in front of him.

"I said, sir, what are you doing here, and how have you done the things I entrusted you?"

"Oh, little brother, what are you doing here? I remember everything I promised you, and I have asked someone to inquire about the situation. It won't be long before they can return to their normal lives. ”

"But how did I hear that they have been escorted to the Imperial City, I guess you will soon be promoted and get rich and leave here!"

Seeing that the matter was revealed, he simply didn't pretend. The face is hideous

"Yes, that's right. Lao Tzu was sent to this place where birds don't, which is eight hundred miles away from the imperial city. Nothing, I just want to go back. Lao Tzu just loves money, and he loves to play with women. ”

"When I first came here, I inquired, the people spoke highly of you, when I first saw you, you were yellow and thin, I thought you were working hard for the people, who knew that you could be a well-dressed beast, it was really in response to that sentence It is difficult to draw dragons and tigers, and you know people and faces but do not know your heart. My lord, your heart is really darker than ink. ”
