Chapter 41: A New Affliction
Stand in the middle of a vast field. As far as the eye can see, the sea of rice turns up green waves, the soybean fruits are abundant, and the ridges of yams are spread and soaked in the ridges, and everywhere is a beautiful scene of gratifying crop growth.
Several carriages came slowly from afar, and around these carriages, there were dozens of knights, each of these knights was in good spirits, their eyes were bright, and once passers-by met their eyes, they would feel a burst of blindness, and at the same time their hearts were cold.
Although the group did not shout anything, all the people and vehicles in front of them would take the initiative to avoid the avenue along the way.
Most of the people who go out have a bit of a look, and they naturally know who can be provoked and who cannot be provoked. As soon as he saw the demeanor and momentum of these knights, even the most unruly people, they would automatically weigh it.
A few days later, these carriages finally arrived under Hejiazhuang in Taicang County.
Today's Hejiazhuang periphery. A huge wall has been built, and the people on it have long noticed this strange convoy.
Several people stepped forward to interrogate with a big grin, although these strong men who were responsible for guarding the door did not have much cultivation, but their eyesight was quite good, and when they looked at the knights on the horse, they knew that these people were not small.
But behind them, after all, is Hejiazhuang, which is a hot Hejiazhuang in the entire Tianluo Kingdom.
So after seeing the strange faces of these knights, they didn't really take this team of vehicles to heart.
The leader stretched out his hand and shouted, "Stop." ”
Dozens of knights suddenly stopped their horses.
After seeing the movements of these knights, the heart of the leader suddenly relaxed.
These knights are all imposing, and they are clearly people who have achieved cultivation, but their riding skills are really difficult to compliment. These discerning gatekeepers immediately knew that they were not the diners of some great power, but a rabble who had been recruited from somewhere.
No matter how powerful such a person is, he will not be regarded by the real big family.
The leader was emboldened and said, "Who are you, do you know what kind of place this is, and dare to ride a horse, stop me." ”
The knights on the horse looked at each other one by one, if it was only about the cultivation of martial arts, any one of them could beat these strong men in front of them all over the ground to find teeth. But when it comes to the battle of words, it is beyond the reach of the horse.
Seeing that these people were speechless, the strong man led by him became more and more proud, he snorted coldly and said, "Lao Tzu doesn't care where you come from. Get the hell out of here. ”
One of the knights frowned slightly, clenched his fists and said, "Please let your Excellency report it, and you will say ......"
"Briefing?" The man at the head laughed, interrupted him, stretched out a palm and weighed it a few times, and said, "Okay, bring it." ”
The knight looked at the other party's palm and asked inexplicably, "What did you bring?"
The man at the head widened his eyes angrily and said, "Nonsense, of course I came with silver." This is the rule of Hejiazhuang, if you want Lao Tzu to report, you must show enough filial piety. Today, Lao Tzu is in a good mood, so he will accept it...... Thirty taels of silver. ”
Behind the man, there was a burst of laughter, there were dozens of people up and down the city wall, but everyone was looking at this place with a smile, and no one stepped forward to stop it.
This has happened many times, and the result is the same every time.
They could even guess the final outcome, although those knights were unwilling in their hearts, they still had to obediently take out the money in the end, otherwise they would not say that they had entered Hejiazhuang. Even if you want to pass the message in, you can't get in.
Before the look of astonishment on the knights' faces had subsided, a clear voice was heard coming from a carriage.
"When did Hejiazhuang have such a rule?"
Although this voice was not harsh, it had an indescribable majesty, and the leader of the family was stunned and muttered speechless.
However, it was only a moment later that he immediately reacted. Seeing that the eyes of the people around him were quite strange, especially the knights in front of him, they all had a look of disdain, and couldn't help but be annoyed and angry, and said: "His grandmother's, this rule is set by Lao Tzu, what kind of thing are you, you dare to contradict Lao Tzu." ”
A cold snort came from the car, and the person in the car obviously didn't want to deal with such a little person, but said directly: "Liu Chengyang, take it for me and go in." ”
The knight at the head turned respectfully, bowed on his horse, and said, "Yes." ”
The families above and below the city were dumbfounded, it was the first time they had met such an eyeless person in such a long time.
The people who want to take Hejiazhuang, do these people really not know what kind of place this is, Yang or they are all a group of crazy people?
No matter how these family members guessed, they would not think that anyone would really dare to challenge the majesty of Hejiazhuang.
All eyes were on the knight, all wanting to see if he really had the courage to make a move.
However, in the next moment, they suddenly saw it. The knight named Liu Chengyang turned around, stretched out his arm, and immediately grabbed the leader of the family. It was with the power of one hand that he lifted him high above the top.
Everyone was making a loud noise, and no one reacted immediately.
The long-term comfort and flattery of others have made these people feel good about themselves one by one, and they have become arrogant, and now they have been hit unexpectedly, and they can't react.
Liu Chengyang held the family member high in his hand, shouted loudly, and said, "Get out of the way." ”
He patted the horse on his crotch, and the horse immediately raised its hooves and rushed forward.
Under the city wall, there was a sudden sound of ghosts crying and wolves, and more than ten people were instantly rushed to pieces.
"Boom ......"
A loud bang came from the city, and someone saw that the situation was not good, and immediately sounded the alarm bell.
Since the castle was built, this alarm bell has been an ornament, because everyone knows that as long as He Yiming is alive, no one will dare to attack Hejiazhuang.
What's more, in today's Hejiazhuang, there are many masters. Although there is no innate powerhouse, whether it is the old man He Laibao or a few distinguished guests in the family. But they are all masters of the tenth and ninth layers of internal strength.
Ordinary people come here to provoke, it is definitely a meat bun beating a dog, and there is no return.
Therefore, this hanging alarm bell is really the first time that it has issued its warning effect.
Almost at the same time as the bell rang, a long howl came from inside the Zhuangzi, and then several figures rushed like flying.
After hearing the sound of a long whistle, those panicked strong men immediately seemed to have a backbone, and some of them even drew their blades and began to fight back.
However, those knights were all elite soldiers, and after dismounting, they grabbed and threw them casually. Immediately threw these people out like straws.
Of course, their men were also measured, and they didn't really hurt anyone.
Several figures came quickly from the village, and before anyone arrived, the sound arrived first.
"Stop. ”
A voice like thunder came, and the voice was full of anger. This is the first time that someone has come to provoke them, which naturally makes them feel shameless.
However, when these people came here and saw these knights, they suddenly showed an incredible look, and the leader hurriedly shouted, "Senior Brother Liu, why are you here?"
Liu Chengyang stopped his hand, and with a slight wave, the rest of the knights immediately stopped, most of them knew each other, but at this time, at most, they only made a look, but did not step forward to greet them.
When those family members heard this person's greeting, their faces turned pale one by one.
The leader of the family who was held in Liu Chengyang's hand was even more excited, and he trembled. It turned out that the object of his blackmail was the biggest backer in Hejiazhuang. As soon as he thought of this, he was suddenly frightened.
Liu Chengyang glanced at him in disgust, threw him away, and left him far away.
With his tenth-layer inner strength, even if he made a move to arrest this person, he felt that it was a humiliating identity.
The curtain opened, and a young man stepped out.
When he got down, the curtains of the other two carriages were also opened, and an old man with a childish face and a middle-aged man walked down.
The young man who got out of the car earlier glanced coldly at the family members who were lying on the ground humming, and then turned around and said, "Brother Zhu, Elder Yu, let you see the joke." ”
The two of them shook their heads at the same time, and the two of them did not squint, and they did not say a word about what was happening here.
Several people from a distance hurried over, and one of them had sharp eyes, saw this young man, and immediately shouted, "Sixth brother." Is that you?"
The young man's eyes finally showed a warm smile, and he said, "Big brother, don't come unharmed." ”
When the family members on the ground heard this name, they immediately seemed to have been hit by the immobilization technique, and they were dumbfounded, and even those who exhaled in pain closed their mouths.
It turned out that it was this master who was in the car, and they were beaten lightly.
The young man who got off the carriage was naturally He Yiming, but the other two were Zhu Baqi and Yu Xichen.
Zhu Baqi accompanied He Yiming to Tianchi Mountain, but when he passed through Tianluo Kingdom, he naturally had to make a detour to return home.
However, Yu Jinglei stayed in Hengshan, and just sent Yu Xichen to accompany him, which was better than nothing.
It's just that after coming to Hejiazhuang, everything he encountered made He Yiming very annoyed. Even if Hejiazhuang expands fast and the manpower is insufficient, it can't be filled indiscriminately.
With these people guarding the door, Hejiazhuang's reputation can be imagined.
He Yitian and the others quickly came here, except for one day, the rest of the people were the old people in the village, as soon as they saw this scene, they immediately understood what was going on, and couldn't help but look at each other and smile bitterly.
As the so-called family ugliness should not be publicized, He Yiming recruited an old steward and asked him to arrange the residence of Zhu Baqi, Yu Xichen and others.
After learning the identities of these two, the old steward would naturally vacate the best room in Hejiazhuang for them to live in.
For the old man in Zhuangzi, He Yiming still has some confidence.
Zhu Baqi and the others saw that He Yiming was in a bad mood, and they naturally understood that if they got along with each other, they were afraid that they would even do something to kill people and vent their anger.
So they were not polite, and left directly with the old housekeeper, leaving He Yiming to catch up with his family.
After everyone was settled, the smile on He Yiming's face finally disappeared, and he turned his head and said, "Big brother, why do we use such a subordinate in our family, is there really no one?"
Although He Yitian is the eldest son and eldest grandson of the third generation of the He family and He Yiming's cousin, in front of this sixth brother who is famous in the northwest, He Yitian is under pressure.
Of course, with the current identity gap between the two people, He Yitian no longer has any jealousy.
Just like an ordinary person, he will be jealous of his neighbors, colleagues and relatives, but he will never be jealous of the leader of the country. The huge gap in identity has long made the little jealousy that He Yitian once had disappear.
With a deep sigh, He Tiantian said, "Sixth brother, it's not me who enabled them. ”
He Yiming heard that there seemed to be something unspeakable in his words, and couldn't help but ask, "Who is that?" ”
"It's the second uncle. "He told the truth.
He Yiming was suddenly dumbfounded, hearing that the person who presided over all this turned out to be his own son, even if he was dissatisfied, he couldn't say anything.
He Yitian smiled bitterly: "Sixth brother, in fact, the second uncle has to use these people, and it is also a matter of last resort. And they are so rampant, it is also deliberately instigated by the second uncle and us. ”
He Yiming really felt incredible this time, he knew his father very well, and he really couldn't figure out why his old man would make such a decision.
He Tiantian was about to speak, when he heard an excited shout from Zhuangzi: "Sixth brother, sixth brother is back." ”
Led by He Yitao, a large number of people poured out, among these people, not only did not a few of his brothers and sisters fall behind, but also He Yiming's parents and third uncle and others, and even He Laibao personally dispatched.
He Yiming glanced at his eldest brother, and there was a trace of helplessness in his eyes. Although he didn't want Bao Ye and his parents and elders to come out to greet him, he understood better that no matter how he explained, he was afraid that it would have no effect.
His status at this time, even if it is his biological parents, all look at him differently.
Pulling He Yiming, the two of them walked up quickly.
Since there is no way to stop the old people from coming out to greet them, let them take a few steps less.
"Hoo ......"
He Yitao happily pounced and gave him a bear hug. He Yiming's heart swelled with warmth, among the many relatives, perhaps only this guy still regarded him as the original sixth brother.
Now He Yitao is also sixteen years old, and in terms of figure alone, it seems that he is not much shorter than his sixth brother. He Yiming patted him lightly on the shoulder, and a true qi swirled around in his body, and he nodded with satisfaction.
"Ninth brother, I haven't seen you for more than half a year, but you actually broke through the fifth layer and reached the middle level of the sixth layer, which is very good. ”
He Yitao was suddenly in high spirits, boasting like Lao Wang selling melons.
Just after saying a few words, someone suddenly slapped him heavily on the back of the head, he turned his head and glared angrily, but saw his father with a black face, and suddenly it was like a mouse seeing a cat, and he hid behind He Yiming with a snort.
He Yiming was amused in his heart, it turned out that the ninth brother was still the same as before, and he was most afraid of the third uncle.
But when this smile appeared on his face, he was surprised to find that he didn't know how long he hadn't smiled so happily.
"Yiming, don't listen to his nonsense. He Quanyi snorted lightly and said, "After taking the energy Jin Dan, it has not reached the peak of the sixth layer until now, it is really a waste." ”
He Yiming was relieved at this time, now Hejiazhuang's cultivation conditions have changed dramatically compared to before, no wonder even Yi Tao, who is not much interested in martial arts, has become a small master of the sixth layer of internal strength.
After greeting with his parents and Bao Ye and others, everyone bustled into the village.
That night, Zhuangzi was naturally very lively. When everything was settled, He Yiming came to his father's room and asked him about the family outside Zhuangzi.
He Quanxin shook his head slightly, and said: "Yiming, after you were promoted to the innate and became the protector master of the Tianluo Kingdom, our Hejiazhuang was immediately famous, and there was an endless stream of relatives and friends, and even relatives who couldn't hit together with eight strokes rushed here." ”
He Yiming was slightly stunned and said, "Daddy, do we have so many relatives?"
He Wude is an orphan, he personally created Hejiazhuang for only three generations, where are there so many relatives.
He Quanxin snorted coldly and said, "Of course there is, you **, your grandmother's, your eldest aunt's, your third aunt's, as long as you are related to the family, which one is not a relative." ”
He Yiming immediately closed his mouth tightly and let him fight with others for three hundred rounds, he was definitely not afraid at all, but if he wanted to straighten out these relationships, it would be as big as a fight.
"Dad, did you send someone to block the door because of these people?"
"It's not just these relatives. He Quan Nobu sighed and said, "Yiming, you have expelled the horse thieves in the territory and made a great reputation. This is certainly a good thing, but under the fame, there is also big trouble. ”
He Yiming was puzzled and asked, "What's the trouble?"
"Complaint. ”
He Yiming was surprised and asked, "When did our Hejiazhuang become an official government......
"In this world, injustices happen every day. Not to mention, even in Taicang County, those who are weak, powerless, and bullied by the strong, they have no way to appeal, so they find us before Hejiazhuang. He Quanxin said in a deep voice: "These things, we take care of a few things by chance, but if we take over all of them and respond to requests, then even if we are as strong as Hejiazhuang, we don't want to gain a foothold in Taicang County, let alone establish a thousand-year-old foundation." ”
He Yiming opened his mouth, he finally understood his father's intentions.
With a long sigh, He Yiming could only shake his head helplessly.
His cultivation above the martial arts is already extremely powerful, but even if he is ten times stronger, he can only ensure the safety and wealth of his relatives and friends.
If you want to be the enemy of the entire elite class, let alone He Yiming, even if it is a legendary Shinto master, I am afraid that you may not dare to do this.
In his heart, there was infinite emotion, perhaps, the good reputation brought is not necessarily a good thing.
