Chapter 4: Stealing Dan
(Updated early in the morning, ask for collections, ask for tickets!)
......
When Xing Tian returned to Wajin Village, the sky was already a little dark, the evening breeze was blowing, and many people had already smoked from their homes.
This time when he entered the mountain, Xing Tian returned with a full load, not only got a big fat rabbit, but also caught two fish and some wild fruits, and wanted to come to their grandfather's dinner in the evening.
However, when Xingtian returned home, he unexpectedly found that the courtyard door was locked.
"It's weird, Dad, he should have come back early!" Xingtian opened the courtyard door, looked at the empty courtyard, and looked puzzled, generally speaking, Xingyuan Mountain's work will end when the sun goes down, after all, there is not much work in the small tile field at home.
Xing Tian was wondering, but he heard a rush of footsteps behind him.
Turning his head, Xing Tian was surprised to find that it was Lu Meng. When the other party saw Xingtian, he was out of breath. "Xingtian, go and take a look, the Xu family has detained your father!"
"What's going on?" Xing Tian was shocked when he heard this, and then asked with gloomy eyes.
"It was said that your father stole something, and I just got the letter and came to you!" Lu Meng wiped the sweat from his forehead, obviously he had come all the way.
"Where's my dad?"
"The ...... of the Xu Family Compound"
Before Lu Meng finished speaking, he saw Xingtian rushing away suddenly.
The Xu family is in the south of the village, it is a unique compound, covering a wide area, and it is the richest family in the entire Wajin Village, and Xu Jiang is the son of the squire Xu Jin. On weekdays, Xing Yuanshan was at odds with the other party, but because the Xu family wanted to forcibly buy Xing Yuanshan's small tile farm by relying on their family background, the latter did not agree, so there was a conflict.
"Xu family, if you do anything to my father, I will never let you go!" Xingtian hurriedly ran to the south of the village, it originally took a quarter of an hour, but this time it was a moment, but Xingtian didn't notice it, and ran wildly all the way, his breath was stable, and he didn't even sweat a drop.
At this moment, the Xu family is quite lively, there are many neighbors around the door, Xingtian rushed in to take a look, and saw Xu Jin, who was as fat as a pig in brocade clothes, pulling his father's neckline, and shouted angrily, while Xu Jiang and several evil slaves of the Xu family were helping to make a gesture on the side.
"You old mud legs, you dare to steal my family's things, I think you are poor and crazy, go, let's go to the official, and you will be punished for stealing!" Xu Jin was extremely fierce at the moment, and he was about to pull Xingyuan Mountain out.
Xing Yuanshan had a bitter face, but he also said angrily: "Xu Jin, don't you spew blood, I bought the 'Strong Bone Pill', why do you say that I stole it?"
It's just that although he is angry, he is weaker than people, and when he says it, it seems to be pleading.
"Bought it?" Xu Jin sneered twice, a hint of banter appeared in the corners of his eyes, and then shouted loudly: "Folks, who doesn't know that your criminal family is poor on all sides, and it would be good to be able to make do with a full stomach, no matter how you say it, the Strong Bone Pill is worth a lot of money, where did you get the money to buy it?" It just so happened that my family lost a Strong Bone Pill today, I think you stole it......."
After Xu Jin finished speaking, he took out a cloth bag from his arms and shouted about stolen goods or something.
Seeing his father's appearance at the moment, Xingtian only felt that his blood was surging, and he couldn't bear it anymore, but he was about to rush forward with red eyes, and at this time, one person pulled the corner of Xingtian's clothes.
Looking back, it turned out to be exquisite.
At this moment, it was dark, and Linglong was wearing an extremely simple dress and a big hat, so she couldn't tell it was her if she didn't look closely.
"Don't go now, if you go, you can only suffer, I have asked Xiaocui to find the person who sold your father's pill, and when that person comes, all the truth will be revealed!"
Linglong's tone was soft, but it calmed Xingtian down.
Indeed, in the current situation, even if he rushes over, it will be useless, not to mention the house slave raised by the Xu family, even Xu Jiang Xingtian can't beat it. Originally, the other party said that his father stole things, but Xingtian absolutely didn't believe it, but there was no evidence, but fortunately, Linglong helped him a lot.
"Thank you!" Xing Tian said sincerely.
And Linglong smiled and said lightly: "Between you and me, don't say thank you!"
But even so, Xingtian can't let his father be insulted. He glanced at Linglong, but still rushed forward and grabbed Xu Jin's wrist. In any case, Xingtian has been practicing boxing for several years, and this move directly uses the 'Tiger Grabger' in the Five Tigers Shaoyang Boxing.
"Little ......"
Xing Yuanshan saw his son coming, but he showed a trace of worry, he was afraid that his son would be impulsive and cause more trouble.
However, Xingtian's reaction was still very calm at the moment, but he stared at Xu Jindao: "Let go!"
That Xu Jin somehow, looking at Xingtian's eyes, there was an inexplicable palpitation, plus he didn't know martial arts, and his wrist was pinched, so he subconsciously let go of his hand.
Xingtian hurriedly pulled Xing Yuanshan to the side, but after Xu Jin reacted, he was annoyed and shouted angrily: "Beat people, this little beast of the Xing family has beaten people, are you dead people......?"
Xu Jiang and a few house slaves obviously didn't expect Xingtian to suddenly rush out, and they were also annoyed at the moment.
"Xingtian, you are looking for death!" Xu Jiang shouted angrily and was about to rush up to do something. Not to mention Xu Jiang, even those domestic slaves have also practiced martial arts, although they are all people who have not passed the martial arts test, but they have practiced martial arts all year round, and they are also physically strong, which is more than enough to deal with one old and one young.
It's just that at this moment, one person stepped forward to stop Xu Jiang and those house slaves, and at first glance, it was Linglong.
Seeing that it was Linglong, Xu Jiang and the others were stunned. Although Linglong suddenly lived in this village two years ago, her origin was mysterious, and no one dared to mess with her. There was a ruffian in the village who used to speak foul language to Linglong, but no one has seen that ruffian since then, although this incident seems to have nothing to do with Linglong, but people's imagination is endless, at least because of this incident, Linglong was listed as a person who could not be provoked by the people in the village.
For Linglong, Xu Jin also seems to be extremely jealous, he has a calm face at the moment, and he doesn't know what he is thinking. Before, he heard that Xing didn't know where to get a 'strong bone pill', so he thought that the other party was poor, and he was definitely reluctant to buy this precious pill, and estimated that he was either stolen or robbed, so he planned to use this to frame the other party, so as to threaten to buy the Xing family's tile field, but he didn't expect that things didn't seem to be developing in the direction he wanted.
At this time, Xiao Cui in the distance pulled a person over, that person was of medium age, with two beards, Xing Yuanshan saw this person, but his face was happy.
The person who was pulled by Xiaocui was the one who sold it to the 'Strong Bone Pill' in Xingyuan Mountain. Naturally, with human evidence, the so-called false accusation of stealing Dan will be self-defeating.
That Xu Jin was also thick-skinned enough, and when he saw that the plan was bankrupt, he snorted coldly and returned to his yard without saying a word. And Xu Jiang was also gloomy at the moment, staring at Xingtian and said: "Xingtian, what kind of ability do you have to stand behind a woman? Do you think that your criminal family can change your fate by smashing the pot and selling iron to buy a strong bone pill? Dream on, tell you, I will take one of that strong bone pill every five days." Compared with talent, than financial resources, you can't do anything, listen to my advice, or go back and learn how to be a bricklayer from your father, hum, if you don't have the strength to learn martial arts, you are tired of your father and suffer, it is simply disloyal and unfilial!"
After speaking, Xu Jiang laughed and took the house slaves back to his compound, and the neighbors around him saw that there was no excitement to see, and they also dispersed in a swarm. Of course, there were also a few 'kind' people who came over to persuade Yuanshan and Xingtian father and son not to be unrealistic, after all, not everyone could pass the martial arts test.
When the father and son returned to their small courtyard, it was already dark, and Xingtian went to get dinner without saying a word, just looking at the meat on the small wooden table, Xingtian had no appetite.
"Dad, where did our family get the money to buy that strong bone pill?" Xing Tian asked.
"Your father's little savings...... Xiaotian, the father and son of the Xu family are not good things, what they say, you should all fart, ignore them, how should you practice...... How can I still practice!" Xing Yuanshan was also not good at words, and he held back for a long time before he said such a comforting word.
After speaking, he put the tightly wrapped Strong Bone Pill in his hand on the table. Looking at his father's action, for a moment, Xingtian's eyes were a little moist, and the bamboo chopsticks in his hand were squeaked by him.
He knows the situation at home better than anyone else, and the money to buy the Strong Bone Pill is not a small savings. I already knew that my father wanted to spend money on repairing the tile yard, and the money must have been moved from here.
After being silent for a long time, Xing Tiancai said: "Dad, I don't practice anymore, maybe Xu Jiang is right, I am not naturally suitable for martial arts, instead of dragging you down, it is better to learn the craft as soon as possible......"
Boom!
Before Xing Tian finished speaking, Xing Yuanshan slammed the bowl on the table, which scared Xing Tian, and his honest father had never acted like this on weekdays. It's just that when he looked up, he saw his father clenching his fists tightly, the corners of his mouth constantly shaking, obviously extremely excited, and there was a trace of tears in his eyes.
"Xiaotian, your father has no ability, he can't give his son meat every day like Xu Jin, and Qianggu Dan eats it like eating jelly beans, so that you don't have to worry about it, but my child, I know, you work harder than any of them, and you are more filial than them, these fathers see it in their eyes. Three months later is your last chance, Dad hopes that you can go all out, whether you succeed or not, there will be no regrets in the second half of your life, so this time it will be even if it is a smashing pot and selling iron...... Dad will support you, even if you fail in the end, your dad will always be your dad, as long as you have a bite to eat, you won't be hungry!"
These words were said by Xing Yuanshan categorically, and Xing Tian was stunned for a while, but he let out a heavy 'um'. At this moment, the boy's tears had already dripped into the bowl, and then swallowed along with the rice.
Xingtian doesn't remember what he ate that night, how he fell asleep, Xingtian doesn't remember, but in the early morning of the next day, he still got up early in the morning, heated the leftovers from last night, and put them in a bowl and ate them all.
"Practice hard, dad is going to work!" Xing Yuanshan carried the tools on his back, reached out and touched Xing Tian's head, and then walked out of the house. Xingtian, on the other hand, cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, still standing in the courtyard as usual in the misty night, and posed in a starting pose of five tigers and Shaoyang boxing.
