Chapter 3: Reciting Poetry
Walking all the way, even on the steep ladder, even if it weighs hundreds of catties, it can't stop Yang Cheng's steady pace in the slightest.
"What a monster, is this person really just a miscellaneous disciple?"
Although the woman who followed Yang Cheng looked calm, deep down she was in turmoil, the height of the ladder was so steep that she felt that it was in her way, why did the ordinary man in front of her care so little?
"Senior sister, it's almost there!"
Seeing that the ladder was about to reach the top, Yang Cheng's heart was even more joyful, after completing this order, he could buy mysterious radish seeds in the mall, not so much to be happy with this business, but to care more about the surprise later.
"Don't keep calling me senior sister, I'm just a maid next to the eldest lady. β
"Maid?!"
This made Yang Cheng marvel in his heart, feeling that the woman in front of him was at least above the inner disciple, but she actually said that she was just a maid? A woman with the strength of not losing to the inner disciple was actually willing to be a maid, and whose maid was she, which made people very curious.
However, Yang Cheng knew that if he shouldn't ask, don't ask indiscriminately, so as not to disgust people for no reason.
"Just tell me to read poetry. β
"Nian Shi'er?" Yang Cheng nodded, although he felt that this "Nian" surname was rarely heard, but if he was surprised, wouldn't it be very rude.
"Sister Shi'er, we're here!"
In the last step, he stepped on the top of the ladder and saw the vast glazed jade paved square mountain gate, Yang Cheng was relieved.
"Very good, you are very good, if I remember correctly, your name is Yang Cheng, right?"
Hearing Shi'er mention his name, Yang Cheng was very surprised, "How does Sister Shi'er know my name?"
"If he succeeds in Ling Yunzhi one day, he dares to laugh at Yang Cheng is not a husband!" Nian Shi'er smiled and said: "Yang Cheng, your ambition is not small, and it is really a loss to you to be a handyman." β
Just said it casually, which made Sister Shi'er smile. β
"Is it, is it really just a casual talk?" Seeing Yang Cheng's deep and calm appearance on the surface, Nian Shi'er chuckled: "Okay, I can't delay here, the eldest lady is still waiting for me to have something important, by the way, this is for you." β
Seeing Nian Shi'er hand over a red ling, Yang Cheng was puzzled, "Sister Shi'er, what is this for?"
"It's just an ordinary red ling, you tie it to your wrist and leave it exposed, maybe it will bring you some good luck in a few days, of course, you can throw it away. β
Yang Cheng took the red ling, and felt that this was an ordinary red ling, there was really nothing special, but he couldn't understand what this poetry meant, could it be that he had taken a fancy to himself, no, no, no, he quickly denied this idea.
The family is delicate and beautiful, and the strength is profound, but he is now so poor and sour, and he still wants others to look at him, which is too much to exalt himself.
I couldn't guess the intention of reading Shi'er, as for throwing it away, there was no need for it, Yang Cheng simply accepted it generously, "Then thank you Sister Shi'er for your kindness." β
"Well, then don't leave it at that, it's dark and slippery, remember to be careful when you go back. β
"Oh, I see. β
Yang Cheng became more and more unable to understand what it meant to read poetry, he always felt that she had something to say, and when he saw that she was leaving, he couldn't ask in person, so after saying goodbye, Yang Cheng also planned to turn back to the seventy-second courtyard.
After getting off the ladder, Yang Cheng decided to take a shortcut from the mountains and forests to the 72nd Courtyard.
The forest is even more difficult to walk, but once you get used to it, it will be nothing, not to mention, Yang Cheng is now full of excitement, because he can finally buy the mysterious radish seeds in the mall, and when he goes back, take advantage of the quiet environment and time to study this simple system by himself, maybe there will be an unexpected discovery at that time.
However, not long after he walked through the forest, after looking at the figures who had outflanked him, he finally understood what he meant by the words of the poem earlier.
I remember when she went up the ladder, she said, you seem to be in trouble, and then told yourself to be careful, it turns out that she has already found out that someone is following her, but it is not easy to say, or perhaps, she has other considerations.
"Is that so," Yang Cheng sighed in his heart, and then set his eyes on the few people gathered around again.
"Yang Cheng, our brothers have been observing you for many days, and I didn't expect you to have a rich livelihood, have you made a lot of money these days. β
The person at the head has a slender horse face and fierce eyes, this person Yang Cheng recognizes, and he is a miscellaneous servant in the same courtyard as himself, and he is called Brother Fei, and he does not bully the weak when he gangs up on weekdays. And he has always been low-key, but now he is being targeted by the other party somehow, listening to them to mean that he wants to make a fortune from himself.
"Brother Fei laughed, it's to make some coolie money, and talk about making a fortune," Yang Cheng replied without humility or arrogance.
"Boy, when we didn't see it, just the delicate beauty from before gave you three high-grade spirit stones, three pieces, how long do we have to do miscellaneous labor to earn so much, you dare to say that you don't get rich!"
The little minions around Fei Ge were all exclaimed, the three high-grade spirit stones were indeed eye-catching, not to mention them, even Yang Cheng himself didn't expect that Nian Shi'er would be so generous and pay himself so much at once.
"Isn't it, my brothers are not blind, and if you know each other, you will offer the money you have recently earned to honor your brothers, otherwise it will be bad if you can't go back if you break your hands and feet where this bird doesn't!"
A few little minions intimidated me word by word, and finally stopped the noise under the wave of Fei Ge, and listened to Fei Ge say: "Boy, you also heard it, if you don't show it today, even I won't be able to protect you, so, what are you going to do?"
Yang Cheng thought for a while and said, "We are all miscellaneous servants in the same courtyard, and we don't see each other when we look down, isn't this kind of behavior a little bad?"
Listen to the little minion next to Fei Ge and say: "Boy, you tease us, who in the Twenty-sixth Courtyard doesn't know Fei Ge's prestige, now let you worship a little is to give you face, if not, you understand." β
"I naturally understand that if I refuse, you will cut off my hands and feet in this deserted place, right?"
"Count your acquaintance, in that case, quickly hand over all your spirit stones to Fei Ge, lest Fei Ge get angry, and you won't be able to bear the anger at that time. β
Yang Cheng nodded, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth secretly, but it was fleeting, and he said, "All my spirit stones are here, you can come and get them." β
Seeing Yang Cheng so "on the road", including Fei Ge, all showed a "gratifying" smile, and the little minion, after looking at the shiny spirit stone that Yang Cheng took out of his arms, his face was full of joy, and he ran up to get the money.
Just when one of his hands was about to touch the spirit stone in Yang Cheng's hand, he suddenly felt a strong wind hitting his waist, and he felt bad at this time, but it was too late to dodge.
Yang Cheng's other hand gathered into a fist, and it hit his waist hard, and the minion was so impacted that his body still collapsed backwards, but soon, it was pulled back by Yang Cheng.
What did he see, he saw Yang Cheng's cold eyes, he saw his terrifying expression, and he didn't even have time to shout in fear, he was directly hit to the ground by Yang Cheng's punch from above.
"Boy, what are you going to do?!"
This happened so suddenly, the group led by Fei Ge never thought that Yang Cheng would suddenly make a move, and it was so neat.
"What am I going to do, you ask me what I am going to do, it's funny, who just said that I broke people's legs and feet in this place where birds don't shit, aren't I satisfying the unreasonable wishes of you bastards!"
Yang Cheng slowly raised his foot, and then stepped directly on the leg of the little minion on the ground, and under the crushing, in such a quiet environment, even the click of bones breaking into slag could be heard.
"You're crazyβahβ"
The minion was so painful that he just roared, and suddenly his mouth was pinched to the maximum, and then a big stone was smashed into his mouth, his teeth were all broken, and blood was flying, and the poor minion couldn't even whine now.
"Alright, don't listen to that annoying noise now!"
Yang Cheng stood up and clapped his hands, as if he had done a very ordinary thing, and then said to the other side: "Come on, I will fulfill all your rude wishes for breaking your hands and feet!"
