Myths Begin From Boys' Gong
Chapter 2615 A Small Gain
To be honest, Meng Zhao really didn't want to pay attention to these ants. He even felt that saying such harsh words was a bit of lowering his status.
However, it is another life after all, and past achievements are already a thing of the past. Now everything has to start from scratch, so there is no need to talk about status and position. Just confront when necessary, and being comfortable and happy is the most important thing.
As for whether it would intensify the conflict and whether it would lead to these two guys attacking him and Cui Ying now, it was not something he considered at all.
In fact, even if he said nothing and did nothing, Wen San would attack him sooner or later, especially after seeing blood and becoming bolder.
Even if it is an ordinary person, he will be killed sooner or later, so it is better to fight to the death. What's more, Meng Zhao has his own confidence.
Ma Feng's head was buzzing at this time. He had no idea where this ragged, skinny guy got the courage to sneer at them.
But the facts are there, they were indeed ridiculed, and were called lackeys to their faces.
The other man was more solid, named Yang Xiaoshu. He reacted faster than Ma Feng and took a step forward with a cold face.
"Li Qi'er, have you lost your mind? Do you have the guts to say what you just said again!"
His tone was heavy, his mouth was grinning revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, and his eyes were extremely vicious, as if he was ready to attack Meng Zhao at any time.
Cui Ying also reacted at this time, and hurriedly walked to Meng Zhao's side, pulling his hand, her watery eyes full of pleading, as if asking him not to be impulsive and to be patient for a while to keep calm.
Cui Ying was not afraid of anything happening to her. After all, she had a lot of people in her family, and they were all from the same village. Ma Feng and Yang Xiaoshu didn't dare to do anything to her. At most, they would say a few sweet words to her and take advantage of her.
But Li Zheng is different. He is an orphan and has always been the target of bullying. If something happens to him, there will be no one to help him get justice.
Therefore, Cui Ying did not want Li Zheng to put himself in a desperate situation because of a momentary impulse.
Meng Zhao gently pressed Cui Ying's hand, signaling her not to worry. He also took a step forward, neither hurriedly nor slowly, with a gentle tone.
"When I talk to people, I only say it once. When I talk to dogs, I have to repeat it because I'm afraid the dogs won't understand. You two don't really think that lackeys are dogs!"
The taunting was at its maximum again. He really wasn't afraid of making things small; he just wanted to make a big deal out of it.
Things have come to this point. Even if Meng Zhao gives in and apologizes now, it won't solve any problems.
Ma Feng and Yang Xiaoshu must take action, otherwise if the news gets out, how will they survive?
Yang Xiaoshu's temper became even more violent, his eyes turned red, and he rushed towards Meng Zhao and kicked him in the chest without holding back at all, not caring whether Meng Zhao's seemingly weak body could hold on.
It feels like being so angry that you lose your mind.
However, Meng Zhao was speechless when he saw this kick. This was not just any martial arts routine, it was just a simple street fight, just a casual one.
Meng Zhao just turned his body slightly, raised his hand, pulled and pushed, and not only did Yang Xiaoshu's kick miss the target, he was also pushed by a clever force and lost his balance. With a thud, he fell to the ground with his head tilted back.
It was such a big cube that it fell to the ground, and the whole thatched house seemed to be shaken. I felt pain all over, and my back and the back of my head were burning.
However, Meng Zhao seemed to have done something insignificant. He stepped on Yang Xiaoshu's chest, pressed down with his weight, and pressed on one of his Qi points, leaving him with only strength in vain but unable to use it.
Cui Ying and Ma Feng who were standing by were completely stunned. What was going on? He was deaf just now, and now, was it possible that his eyes were blurry?
How is it possible that Li Zheng, this coward, not only dared to fight back, but also knocked Yang Xiaoshu down so easily and stepped on Yang Xiaoshu's heart in an extremely insulting way. This world is too magical!
Yang Xiaoshu felt a surge of blood rushing to his head, and he went completely crazy. His limbs danced, and he wanted desperately to get up and kill Meng Zhao. At the same time, he was full of swear words.
Meng Zhao frowned slightly, feeling annoyed. He kicked Yang Xiaoshu on the chin with more force, and only heard a cracking sound.
Not only was Yang Xiaoshu's jaw dislocated, but a rotten tooth was also broken and rolled out.
Ma Feng was shocked. How come Li Zheng not only became so powerful but also so vicious? Could it be that he was replaced by a different person, or was he possessed by some evil spirit?
People in the small mountain village have always believed in matters related to gods and ghosts, especially those who grew up listening to stories about them. Whenever they encounter something, they tend to attribute it to gods and ghosts.
But it must be said that Ma Feng really did understand the truth of the matter.
In a sense, Meng Zhao did take over Ma Feng's body, so it is not wrong to say that he was possessed by some demon or ghost.
After all, if Meng Zhao doesn’t say it’s an old ghost now, he won’t be able to find out much.
"You, you, Li Zheng, don't be so arrogant. Yang Xiaoshu is an acquaintance of Third Brother. If you attack him now, it means you are disrespecting Third Brother. You will definitely suffer in the future!"
Meng Zhao laughed and shook his head. It seemed that people in every world were the same. There were too many of them who appeared to be powerful but were actually weak.
He suddenly lost interest.
"Trash is trash, hand over everything you have and get out of here with him!"
As he spoke, Meng Zhao used a little skill with his toes, like a top shooter, and kicked Yang Xiaoshu, a young man of great build, directly away, and with a plop, he overwhelmed Ma Feng.
However, Meng Zhao's right leg twitched unnaturally, barely visible, and Meng Zhao's expression showed a moment of pain.
Fortunately, Ma Feng, who was overwhelmed, and Yang Xiaoshu, who was already dizzy, did not notice it.
Although Meng Zhao has extraordinary knowledge and his martial arts skills have reached the pinnacle, even with his current weak body, he can still exert huge lethality.
However, his body was still too weak, and he was still quite unfamiliar with some martial arts skills and tricks.
Therefore, after exerting force, one may become exhausted or even strain one's muscles and bones.
Now, Meng Zhao's right leg was cramping a little, and it hurt like a needle prick. However, Meng Zhao had great endurance and did not show it at all. Instead, he became calm and composed.
Not to mention that his leg was just cramped, even if one of his legs was broken, he could easily deal with two reckless men who had no other skills except brute force.
At this time, Yang Xiaoshu and Ma Feng also knew that they alone were probably no match for Meng Zhao.
Just these three or two simple moves are definitely not something an ordinary beggar can do. Could it be that he learned skills from some master and gained this ability?
No wonder he is so arrogant and domineering. The man who was once timid and cowardly has become a living devil. This is because he has the confidence and backing!
Both of them are ruffians in the village, shameless and good at bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
After looking at each other, they both knew that they might not be able to take down Li Zheng today. And looking at the boy's posture, he seemed to be getting bolder. It was hard to say what would happen in the future, but it was difficult to explain today.
Although they were very reluctant, the two men still rummaged around, took out some things, threw them on the broken table, and limped away.
As for any harsh words, I didn't say them. After all, if I said them, I might get beaten again, which would not be worth it. Why bother?
Cui Ying, on the other hand, stared at Li Zheng with a pair of sweet eyes, full of disbelief.
"Ah, A Zheng, how could you?"
She really didn't understand. If Li Zheng already knew all these skills, why would he live such a miserable life? Maybe he would have gone out into the world and achieved something.
But it's unlikely that he learned it recently. He was beaten up by Wen San and his friends two days ago, and he has been recovering from his injuries these days. If she hadn't brought the cakes from home, Li Zheng might have starved to death. How could he have such skills?
Meng Zhao also knew that his performance was too shocking. It was not that he was that great, but the contrast was too great, making it difficult for people to adapt.
Then he smiled and said,
"I was lucky enough to meet a master these past two days. I learned some Kung Fu from him, but it's still very basic. Look at my legs, they're cramped. Help me sit down quickly!"
Cui Ying then looked at Meng Zhao's right leg, and sure enough, it was shaking non-stop. It was obviously suffering from cramps or even a bone injury.
She also realized that Li Zheng was pretending to be so calm, otherwise if those two people were bolder, they might have beaten him half to death.
Of course, this is what Cui Ying thought. Only Meng Zhao knew the truth.
After Meng Zhao sat down, Cui Ying walked to the table and looked at the things on it. She was pleasantly surprised.
"Ah Zheng, look, there are quite a few copper coins here, and even a dime of silver!"
The monetary system within the Tianyuan Kingdom is relatively simple and primitive. Copper coins, silver, and gold are three monetary units of different values.
One copper coin has good purchasing power. In a small town, it can buy at least two steamed buns, made of white flour.
One hundred copper coins were equal to one penny of silver, and ten pennies of silver were equal to one ounce of silver. As for gold, it was much more valuable, and the villagers had never seen gold.
Cui Ying counted and found a total of 28 copper coins and a dime on the table. After weighing it, she thought there were at least two or three cents.
It's no wonder that the little girl is so excited. This is the first time she has come into contact with so much money. How can she not be surprised?
Meng Zhao nodded. In fact, he estimated that Ma Feng and Yang Xiaoshu still had some silver on them. However, his right leg was cramping, so he didn't want to force them too much. Otherwise, if the two of them ran away, Meng Zhao wouldn't be able to catch up. Wouldn't that confirm his true situation?
Therefore, I turned a blind eye.
"This money was probably divided among the robbers."
Cui Ying thought about it and felt a little worried. Li Zheng could barely deal with these two people, but what about Wen San?
Especially since Wen San had killed someone, in the mind of the little girl Cui Ying, he was a completely vicious and evil person who even ghosts were afraid of.
Meng Zhao smiled and pointed at the copper coins and silver on the table.
"Aque, you can pick whatever you want on the table. If you have any trouble, just tell Wen San to come to me."
Meng Zhao really didn't take these things to heart. With his ability, money was just outside of his body. Cui Ying's act of helping him in his time of need warmed his heart and made him feel somewhat grateful.
At worst, I can kill Wen San and seize his property. It's not a pipe dream to make a fortune.
As for whether the dead would attract the attention of the government, that is pure wishful thinking.
Firstly, Xiaohan Village is a poor and remote village with unruly people, otherwise there wouldn't be so many young and strong people in the village committing robbery. The government is far away and taxes are rarely collected here these days.
Secondly, Xiaohan Village itself is not very interested in the government. Any problems are solved by the village itself. Even if someone dies, it will not be reported to the government. It will be handled directly by the village elders and the village head.
Although Li Zheng is a coward, he is still a person who eats for others. At least he is harmless to people and animals. Wen Sanke's reputation is much worse than Li Zheng's.
He died, and died at the hands of Li Zheng. According to Meng Zhao's estimation, the people of Xiaohan Village would not take any major action.
It might even be accepted by default.
Therefore, he had already thought about his next move, and the money on the table was of no concern to him.
What's more, he knew that Cui Ying was not a greedy person. At most, she would pick up a copper coin, which was considered as money for making pancakes and also as an explanation to her family.
Sure enough, Cui Ying thought about it, and although she was very tempted, she still only picked out a copper coin and held it in her hand, saying,
"Then I'll take one, and I'll say I sold that pancake for a copper coin, and then my father won't scold me!"
Meng Zhao nodded and didn't say anything hypocritical. With him around, Cui Ying would definitely have a worry-free life with food and clothing, and would be rich and prosperous in the future.
It's not that I like Cui Ying, it's simply that the friendship we had when we were poor and humble is worth the reward.
"Okay, then Ah Que, do me another favor. Take some copper coins and go to Uncle Cai in the village to get a medicine that can clear the lungs and dissipate blood stasis. Also, buy me some dry food, preferably with meat!
By the way, if you meet Wen San’s people, try to hide away and don’t talk too much to them! "
Meng Zhao is currently focusing on adapting to his current physical condition, so it would be best to entrust some chores to Cui Ying.
As long as he recovers from the injuries to his internal organs and regains his energy, these little scoundrels will be the code to wealth for him. Kill them and take away their wealth!
Meng Zhao never thought that this idea was wrong.
This was not his first time traveling through time, and the jungle law of the Chinese land where the strong prey on the weak has completely changed him.
The same is true in this world.
If he is weak, Wen San will definitely crush him to death. If not for anything else, just to live comfortably every day, that's enough.
Similarly, he is strong, so it is natural for him to want to crush Wen San to death. It is not that he has any hatred towards Wen San.
One thing is just the memory left by Li Zheng, but more of it is to get rich quickly.
Wen San's family is very wealthy.
It is precisely because of the family wealth that one can afford to squander it, spend it in debauchery with friends, and make connections.
Otherwise, who would care about Wen San? He is nothing!
Cui Ying didn't think there was anything wrong with it. She counted some copper coins with a smile and left a crisp sentence.
"wait me back!"
Meng Zhao left the room with light steps, not caring about the remaining copper coins and silver coins on the table.
Reach out and rub your right leg to relieve the injured tendon.
The technique is also very delicate, squeezing, kneading, patting, pressing, and after a while, I feel much more comfortable, at least it does not affect my walking. (End of this chapter)
