Chapter Twenty-Eight: Betrayal

Because of Uncle Liu's face, the miscellaneous work arranged by the outer door steward for Wang Ming'er was to sweep the floor, which was relatively easy among all the miscellaneous servants. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoIn the first few days, Wang Minger was still able to do things honestly. After 7 or 8 days, Wang Ming'er found that the miscellaneous servants could not practice martial arts, and this heart changed a little.

In the past few days, Wang Ming'er has also gotten acquainted with several miscellaneous servants who live together. One of them is named Brother Li, who is Wang Minger's hometown, so the relationship between the two is the best, and Wang Minger will tell him if he has anything on his mind.

On this day, Wang Ming'er couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Brother Li, I want to practice martial arts, is there a way?"

"Practicing martial arts, Wang Ming'er, I advise you to die of this heart. Brother Li shook his head and said, "The Qinglian Sword Sect has a rule that miscellaneous servants are not allowed to practice martial arts. Unless you can jump out of the chores and join the outer door, it's possible. ā€

"Brother Li, what can I do to jump out of the miscellaneous and join the outer gate?" Wang Ming'er did not give up and asked.

"Well, I'll tell you today, and let you die of this heart. Brother Li paused for a moment, and then said, "According to the rules of the Qinglian Sword Sect, if the miscellaneous disciples can make great contributions to the sect, according to the size of the merit, they can join the outer gate, or even the inner gate." In addition, it is okay to be favored by an elder or steward who is willing to protect you. ā€

Wang Ming'er thought about it carefully, it was impossible to protect the promotion, and there was only one way to make meritorious service, so he asked again: "Brother Li, what's going on with this meritorious service?"

"There are many situations of meritorious service, one is that the sect is in danger, and it has turned around because of you. This is a great merit, and if you make this kind of merit, you can directly join the inner gate; second, you have saved the head of the sect or a big person like an elder; third, you have contributed some extremely valuable genius treasure or exercise to the sect. Brother Li explained, and then added, "Wang Ming'er, I advise you to give up." Honestly do chores for a few years, and when you get old, the sect will give you a large amount of severance pay, and if you are lucky, you can also give some superficial exercises, which is enough for you to go back and be at ease. ā€

These words pierced Wang Ming'er's heart like a thorn, and Wang Ming'er asked again almost in despair: "Brother Li, is there no other way besides these?"

"Hey, I said Wang Ming'er, what's wrong with you today. Brother Li sighed and was about to refuse, when he suddenly remembered something and said, "When you say that, I really think of a shortcut, but unfortunately, you can't go through this road." ā€

"Brother Li, what kind of shortcut is it, just tell me to listen to it. Wang Ming'er begged.

"Hehe, Wang Ming'er, have you ever heard that money can make ghosts grind?" Brother Li smiled and whispered, "Wang Ming'er, these stewards outside are dark, as long as you feed them, what can't you do?"

"Brother Li, how much does it cost to feed these stewards?" Wang Ming'er's eyes lit up and he asked.

"I can't see it, is there really any way for you kid?" Brother Li looked at Wang Ming'er and asked rhetorically.

Wang Ming hurriedly shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm just a beggar, how can there be any way, just curious to ask." ā€

"I think so. Brother Li nodded, paused for a moment and then said, "If you want to buy these stewards, why don't you want a hundred taels of gold." If you want to enter the outer gate, you need at least 2 or 3,000 taels of gold. I remember someone doing this before, and it worked. ā€

The speaker has no intention, the listener has a heart, Wang Ming'er firmly remembered this, and involuntarily remembered the wanted notice in Wushan Town again, which was a full 10,000 taels of gold!

As the days passed, Wang Ming'er still got up early and swept the floor around greedily, and her heart became more and more entangled. On this day, Wang Ming'er had just finished sweeping the mountain road, and several outer disciples passed by here and threw some things on the ground casually. Wang Ming'er saw it in her eyes, whispered a few words, and dragged a broom over.

The leading outer disciple heard Wang Ming'er's complaint and scolded angrily: "Boy, what are you talking about?"

When Wang Ming'er saw this disciple's fierce and vicious appearance, he was immediately frightened and retreated, and he didn't know what to say. Several outer disciples looked even more proud, and walked over with a smile.

"Boy, what are we going to ask you about? Don't think you can be fooled without speaking. The outer disciple in the lead became more and more arrogant, and he took a few steps forward to hold Wang Ming'er.

Wang Ming'er knew that it was not good, threw down the broom, turned around and ran. This run even angered several outer disciples, scolded a few angrily, and all of them chased after them. Wang Ming'er is short in legs and has poor physical strength, where can he outrun these burly outer disciples, and he was caught by a few people after daring to run two miles.

"Boy, do you think you can run?" shouted the leading outer disciples, pinned Wang Ming'er to the ground, and punched and kicked him. The rest of the outer disciples also stepped forward to fight.

"Big brothers, I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again. Wang Ming'er couldn't bear it anymore and screamed and begged for mercy.

"Tell you to run, if you have the ability, you can run again? A miscellaneous disciple dares to complain about us, and no one cares if you are killed. The more the leading disciple fought, the more excited he became, and he didn't know how serious he was.

I don't know how long the fight lasted, the group was tired, looking at Wang Ming'er who was lying on the ground motionless, an outer disciple said a little worriedly: "Senior brother, you won't really be killed, right?" After speaking, he was about to reach out to probe Wang Ming'er's snort.

"Dead is dead, what's the big deal. The leading outer disciple snorted disapprovingly.

"Senior brother, it's hard to deal with the death of the steward. An outer disciple said worriedly.

"Alright, just a handyman. It's a big deal to suffer a little bit of flesh and skin, and then pay some money and it's over. Don't worry, I've got your share. The leading outer disciple patted the money bag and shouted, "Okay, I've beaten enough, let's go." After speaking, he took a few outer disciples and left.

Wang Ming'er was lying on the ground, the pain in his body was still secondary, and these words stabbed him deeply again. I don't know how long I lay down, Brother Li found here, saw Wang Ming'er lying on the ground and couldn't move, sighed and carried Wang Ming'er back.

"Wang Ming'er, who did you provoke today?" After settling Wang Ming'er, Brother Li couldn't help but ask.

Wang Ming'er was depressed in her heart, and cried again when she mentioned it, and told the matter intermittently.

Brother Li was silent for a long time after hearing this, and then he comforted: "Wang Ming'er, be careful in the future." The rules of the sect are like this, the outer disciples kill us, at most they abolish the martial arts and expel the master, and the inner disciples kill the outer disciples, and this is the way of the world. You also have to look at the opening point, and the past is over. ā€

Hearing this, Wang Ming'er cried even more sadly, and couldn't help asking, "Brother Li, is this the end of my life?"

"Wang Ming'er, what else can you do if you don't?" Brother Li asked rhetorically.

Wang Ming'er was dumbfounded for a while, and Brother Li changed his words and said again: "This is still in the sect, and there are still some rules." If you leave the sect, will there be fewer poor people in the outer gate who will be killed for no reason?"

Wang Ming'er had nothing to say, he had been here like this in Gaoyang Town all these years, otherwise he wouldn't have desperately wanted to practice martial arts! Thinking of this, Wang Ming'er finally made up his mind and whispered: "Brother Li, I beg you for one thing, okay?"

"Say anything. Brother Li nodded.

"Brother Li, my injury will be healed in two days, I want to go back to Gaoyang Town, it will take about half a month, can you help me take care of it." Wang Ming'er thought about it for a moment and pleaded.

"Go ahead. Remember, half a month can't be longer. Brother Li said solemnly.

Wang Ming'er nodded. Of course, Wang Ming'er is not going to Gaoyang Town, but Xinfeng Town next to Qinglian Town, where he can find people from the official mansion, and half a month is enough time to come and go.
