The light of the sword is like the moon reflecting on Kyushu

Chapter 1894 The Time Has Come

A series of crisp sounds!

Feng Jiuxiao slapped a big man with both hands, and knocked him down with one slap. He slapped him nine times in a row, and all nine big men were knocked down!

The pedestrians on the roadside were so shocked that they stopped and opened their mouths wide!

Where did this young man come from? How dare he act wildly in front of Zhang’s house!

These big guys are all fierce and ferocious, and they are not easy to mess with! Huh? These big guys...how come...they are like paper, and one slap can knock one down?

How is this going?

They felt that their brains could not keep up with their eyes, and it took them a long time to realize what had happened!

The big man lying on the ground had half of his face swollen to the size of a steamed bun, his head was buzzing, and he lay on the ground curled up into a ball, unable to get up!

Feng Jiuxiao looked at the tightly closed vermilion lacquered door, put his hands behind his back, and gently kicked it. There was a loud bang, and the door shattered!

Feng Jiuxiao walked into the gate of Zhang's mansion with the gait of a dragon and a tiger, with his sleeves fluttering!

More and more people gathered outside the door.

"what's up?"

"I do not know!"

"Who is that boy?"

"do not know!"

"Is this kid drunk? How dare he cause trouble at the Zhang family!"

"You know what? I just passed by that guy and smelled alcohol. It was so strong that it choked me. He must have drunk a lot!"

"Are you saying that this kid is drunk and came here to cause trouble?"

"Of course, otherwise how would you have the guts to come to Zhang's house and cause trouble!"

"Haha, this is called alcohol emboldening a coward! When this kid wakes up, he will regret coming to the human world! I heard that the Zhang family has a hundred kinds of torture, and his delicate skin and tender flesh probably can't stand any of them!"

A wandering Taoist priest in the crowd said calmly: "What a bunch of ignorant fools!"

His voice was very soft, but a Confucian scholar nearby still heard it. He immediately glared at the Taoist priest with a look of indignation: "Who are you calling an ignorant fool?"

The Taoist frowned and said, "Where did you come from, idiot? What does it have to do with you who I scold?" He hated the most this kind of sour scholar who was powerless and had no skills at all, but was self-righteous when encountering a problem. He was always mysteriously confident that he had stood at the pinnacle of morality and could dictate and criticize others with ease!

The Confucian scholar immediately glared, "Everyone come and see, this Taoist priest is actually calling us idiots!"

Suddenly, countless hostile looks were cast from the crowd!

The Taoist priest immediately shouted angrily: "What do you want to do? Idiot!"

The scholar got anxious when he heard this, and raised his fist to hit the Taoist priest, but with a slap, his fist missed and he got slapped in the face! The Taoist priest was so strong that he staggered and fell to the ground!

The scholar covered his face and wailed on the ground, "Someone is killing someone! Someone come quickly! The fake Taoist priest is killing someone!"

The Taoist looked at the man coldly, "People like you are greedy when you see meat, and you are dead when you drink wine. You grab the merits and blame others when you make mistakes. You are the most spineless and unrighteous people!" As he spoke, he kicked the Confucian scholar again, making him scream like a pig being slaughtered!

People nearby accused him one after another: "What are you doing? Are you going to kill someone?"

"That's right! He's wearing a Taoist robe. Is he a real Taoist?"

"How can a real Taoist be so grumpy? He's obviously a fake Taoist!"

"Whether you are a real Taoist priest or a fake one, you cannot kill people in the street!"

The Taoist priest snorted coldly, "Kill him? Does he deserve it?"

At this time, an old man in a purple robe seemed to see something strange. "Master, let's talk it over. Is there any misunderstanding between the two men? Why did you hit him?"

The Taoist said coldly: "He was the one who provoked me first!"

The scholar lying on the ground immediately shouted, "You were the first one to call us idiots, right? What? You dare to call us idiots but you don't dare to admit it?"

The Taoist looked at him coldly and said, "Did I scold you?"

The man on the ground thought for a moment, "You didn't specifically target me, but you scolded everyone, including me!"

The Taoist priest looked displeased, "How do you know I scolded them? Which dog ear of yours heard it?"

"You...you...you actually called me a dog?!"

"Fuck! What's wrong with me scolding them?"

The crowd went wild!

Satisfying swear words, is this a Taoist priest?

"Why do you scold us?"

"Which Taoist temple are you from? Are you a Taoist priest?"

"That's right, are you a Taoist priest? Are you a fake Taoist priest?"

"He looks like a bandit to me!"

"He looks like a bandit, most likely a bandit!"

"Everyone, come and see..."

Snapped!

The middle-aged woman who shouted “Come and see” received a loud slap in the face!

The Taoist priest said angrily, "If any of you want to scold me, stand up and scold me, and challenge me one-on-one! Why do you have to involve others? Are you sick? Ah? Why do you let others come and watch? Look at your grandma! Just now, why did I beat up that sour scholar? It's because he insisted on involving others! He's just like a dog! He doesn't dare to say a word in front of strangers, but once there is someone behind him, he thinks that someone is backing him up and gives him courage, so he dares to bark! Right?"

The purple-robed old man next to him said, "Okay, everyone, stop arguing. We should be reasonable in everything! Since you have already scolded and beaten us, Taoist priest, I want to ask, did you scold us?"

The Taoist priest looked proud and said, "I cursed!"

The purple-robed old man frowned, "Why?"

The Taoist sneered, "Just now, the young man slapped a man as big as an iron tower and sent him flying far away. Look, is that man still lying on the roof over there?"

Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and indeed, they saw a burly man lying on the roof opposite, still twitching!

The purple-robed old man frowned and asked, "What does this mean?"

The Taoist sneered and said: "If you are allowed to fan, can you blow that big man onto the roof?" The old man in purple robe was stunned!

"Master, you must be joking. At my age, I can only fan a paper man, but how can I fan a living person that big? And I fanned the roof. I can't do it!"

"You can't do it, can they?"

Many people in the crowd seemed to realize something, but some still insisted: "Apologize quickly! Tell the truth."

The Taoist sneered, "That young man is obviously a peerless master, but you stood by and mocked him, even saying that he was drunk and crazy. Humph, why don't you get drunk and show me if you can knock down ten big men with one slap? Can you kick such a heavy red lacquer copper nail door into pieces with one kick?"

After his reminder, everyone fell into deep thought.

Can I do it? No!

Silence, surprisingly quiet!

The Taoist said coldly: "Smart people see the essence of things, only stupid people think inertially and can only see the surface!"

Everyone seemed to be lost in thought! What the Taoist said seemed to be correct. Why did everyone have a preconceived notion that the young man in white would not have a good ending if he challenged the authority of the Zhang Mansion?

To put it bluntly, it is inertial thinking!

It is the accumulated prestige of the Zhang family over the years that has formed a solidified perception in people! The Zhang family is the top existence in the local area! No one can shake the status of the Zhang family in Wenchuan!

But the kung fu that the young man showed just now is not that of an ordinary master! Those ten big men are known as the Ten Golden Warriors of Hedong! There are also many gangs in Wenchuan, but they all follow the Zhang family. Is it possible that the Zhang family has a Bodhisattva, and those big brothers in the underworld are all good men and women? Definitely not! Isn’t it because the Zhang family has been so arrogant for so many years because of the large number of people? The key is that there are many masters!

The purple-robed old man frowned and said, "In your opinion, is the Zhang family going to be in trouble?"

The Taoist turned and left, leaving behind a cold remark: "Finally, there is someone who understands!"

The purple-robed old man clasped his fists and said, "May I ask your Taoist name, Immortal?"

The Taoist priest left without looking back, leaving only a few words lingering in everyone's ears: "I am an unknown person, not worth mentioning!" He disappeared in an instant.

The discussion started again, some people were speculating about the origin of this Taoist priest, while others began to discuss the good and bad luck of this mysterious young man in white! Although he defeated the Ten Vajra, after all, they were only "gatekeeper-level" martial arts masters!

What's more, there is always someone better than you. No matter how good the boy's martial arts are, he is alone after all. How can he possibly defeat the Zhang family, which is full of masters?

The crowd was getting denser and denser, most of them were ordinary people who loved to watch the fun. They still didn't believe that the young man in white could cause any trouble. Some of them even made a bet on how long it would take for the young man in white to be thrown out. Half an incense stick was a node, and the bet doubled for every half an incense stick of time left! Most people bet that he would be thrown out before half an incense stick of time, and a few bet more than an incense stick of time!

Someone asked the purple-robed old man how many incense sticks he should bet. The old man thought for a while and said, "He may not come out even if it's two incense sticks!" Before the Taoist left, he clearly said that the Zhang family could not stop the young man's progress. This made him waver in his thoughts, but deep down he still didn't believe that the young man could challenge the entire Zhang family!

So he said two incense sticks, which is the limit, no more!

At this time, there were a few more young people in the crowd. After they understood the whole story, they looked at each other and expressions of ecstasy appeared on their faces!

"Do you think that young man is that person?"

"I guess so!"

“How come you see?”

"Of course I guessed!"

"Is there a basis for your guess?"

"Of course! First, they both wore white clothes and had long swords on their waists! Second, they were of similar age, both looked to be around 18 years old! Third, that person happened to appear in Chengdu a few days ago, so it's entirely possible that he appeared here!"

"But that person was not traveling alone this time. He was accompanied by Pang Shiwu who was wearing two swords, a blond man from the Western Regions, and the Lord of Sky Eagle Castle, Liu Miezhou, the Marquis of Han County of the Great Shu Dynasty. According to these people, he went in alone!"

"Then there are two possibilities! Either this boy is him, and those friends are not with him! Or this boy is a loner, and it's not him!"

"That's easy. I can just send people to search the whole city. Their appearance is very obvious, and we can find them out easily!"

A slightly hoarse voice sounded: "You two don't need to ask!"

The two men said in unison: "Why?"

Hoarse voice: "I have an informant at the city gate. I got the news this morning that three carriages entered the city. The most obvious thing is that there is a blond man from the Western Regions. I didn't take it seriously at the time. After all, there are lamas walking all over the streets of Wenchuan City, and blond Westerners appear every now and then. Now I suddenly remembered that there is something I overlooked!"

"what's up?"

"My brother said that the county magistrate personally rode to the city gate to greet those people!"

“Ride a horse to the city gate to greet him? The person who can make the county magistrate personally go to greet him must be more powerful and influential than him! But he did not arrange a ceremonial guard to pick him up, but hurriedly rode a horse to pick him up, which means that he went to Wenchuan on a whim or was just passing by!”

"That's right! I heard that he is in a high position of power in the imperial court of the Song Dynasty. Logically, the county magistrate would have welcomed him with great fanfare, but almost everyone knows that he is a carefree person who doesn't like red tape, so... personally riding a horse to pick him up would not only show proper courtesy, but also be low-key, which suits his taste!"

"Actually, none of this is important. What's important is the three carriages and the three drivers. One is wearing white clothes as white as snow, one has blonde hair shawl, and one has two swords hanging from his waist. Who else could it be if not them?"

"I think, to be on the safe side, you have many brothers in the Liu family, so you can send someone to inquire."

"it is good!"

All three of them clenched their fists!

They knew that if the young man in white who entered was the legendary man, then the day for the Liu, Wang, and Chang families in Hedong to rise would come! The days of being pinned to the ground and rubbed would be gone forever!

The stability of Hedong is different from the stability of Hexi.

The stability of Hexi is that Li An, the head of the Li family, has tied all the merchants into a business alliance through the tactics of forming alliances, and everyone is in a win-win relationship!

But it was not the case in Hedong. The Zhang family in Hedong used violence, threats, and intimidation to forcibly merge various industries and form a monopoly. He forced himself to buy shares in industries that required high technology and were difficult to manage, such as textiles, porcelain, pawnshops, and metallurgy, and then just collected the dividends; for industries that did not require much technology and could be managed purely with money and violence, such as gambling houses, brothels, and shipping, he forcibly occupied them all!

Except for the small stalls and vendors that the Zhang family looks down upon, almost all industries have the shadow of the Hedong Zhang family!

The merchants in Hedong have suffered from the Zhang family for a long time!

But without Chen Sheng and Wu Guang-like people rising up, these people can only silently endure oppression! Dragons and snakes lie dormant, with storms in their hearts, just waiting for the right time!

Now that the dawn has come and the time has come, they must naturally seize this fleeting opportunity!

It would be best if that person eliminated the Zhang family! If, if for some unexpected reason, that person showed mercy and let the Zhang family go, they would immediately sign a joint letter to meet that person and strongly demand that he give everyone justice!

That man has always been elusive. To meet him, both the right time and the right place are essential. Now God has given us this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, how can we miss it?

After Feng Jiuxiao entered the yard, he was faced with a screen wall with a huge porcelain painting hanging on it, "Tiger Roaring in the Mountains"!

In the painting, a tiger sits on the top of a dark rock, its amber pupils as if quenched by molten gold, its eye corners slanting into its temples, like two unsheathed scimitars cutting through the twilight!

The muscles are knotted under the fur stained with bluish-white glaze, and the front paws are deeply embedded in the cracks of the rocks. The tips of the claws are shining with a cold glaze, as if they are about to shatter the porcelain surface and jump out!

The cobalt blue outlines the traces of the mountain wind, and the tiger's tail sweeps across like a steel whip, passing through a few indigo pine needles!

In the background, the dark green glaze flows into layers of distant mountains, and a waterfall condenses under the tiger's mouth, just like a silver chain shattered by the roar of the beast king. The most wonderful part is the detail of the tiger's ears trembling slightly - the hair on the ear tips dotted with underglaze red is clearly visible, as if it is catching the rustling sound of prey outside the painting!

The moonlight shines through the depths of the porcelain body, casting a prismatic spot on the bridge of the tiger's nose, making the tiger whiskers on both sides of the nose clearly visible, like silver needles quenched with poison. The whole painting has a matte texture unique to low-temperature glaze, and only the tiger's eyes are covered with secret glaze, with a faint green phosphorescent fire flowing in the dark.

Feng Jiuxiao said to himself, "The fierce tiger emerges from the scroll, swallowing up the mountains and rivers! The painting is a masterpiece of color and natural charm! It must be the work of a famous artist!"

He walked around the screen wall and went straight into the depths. In front of him was a rockery with jagged rocks. The miniature scenery on it was extremely lifelike, with verdant pines and cypresses and an ancient pavilion located halfway up the mountain. A waterfall cascaded down and fell into the pool below the rockery, stirring up a mist.

There was no one in the yard!

I only heard a few shouts from the inner house, full of anger!

Feng Jiuxiao suddenly changed his idea of ​​"crushing violently and pushing all the way". He restrained all his breath, including precisely controlling the muscles under his feet and injecting true energy to isolate the soil, etc., to ensure that he did not make any sound when walking!

He wanted to see what had happened to the powerful Hedong Zhang family!

Thank you Yudong for your strong support and encouragement!
