Eternal Sword

Chapter 51 Dispute
Mei Nianzhi was chatting with everyone, and when he glanced, he saw a group of young men surrounding Gou Dai and heading towards Chen Tang's carriage, and he couldn't help but frown slightly.

Just by coincidence, Mei Yingxue's clothes were accidentally spilled with wine and she was changing clothes in the carriage.

Just as Mei Nianzhi was about to stand up, several people around him persuaded him, "Brother Mei, don't be nervous. They are just kids. What can happen? Just let them be. Let's continue drinking."

Several members of the Evil Wolf Gang also received instructions and came forward to toast.

Mei Nianzhi couldn't refuse and could only deal with the present situation.

Chen Tang entered the woods and looked in the direction of the convoy for a while.

No one followed.

Chen Tang walked into the woods alone. Picking up some dry firewood was just one of his purposes. The most important thing was to give Gou Dai and his group a chance.

Let them come to you on their own initiative, and then let them learn a lesson.

However, Gou Dai seemed to have learned his lesson and did not provoke him.

Chen Tang was not worried about the situation over there in the carriage. After all, with the fat old man and Qing Mu there, nothing serious would happen.

He picked up some dry firewood in the woods and was about to leave when he suddenly caught a glimpse of some fires that had just been extinguished deep in the forest.

Chen Tang narrowed his eyes slightly and looked around. Not seeing any figure, he slowly approached.

It is normal to have a bonfire. It may be found by hunters going into the mountains or passers-by.

But there were too many bonfires, more than twenty of them scattered around, and the footprints and horse hoof prints on the snow around them were disorganized. It was estimated that there were more than a hundred people!
If it was just a caravan passing by, they would usually make a fire beside the official road, after all, they had to guard the carriages.

The fact that so many people went deep into the forest to light a fire was somewhat suspicious.

The fires were still warm, so the group of people must have just left not long ago.

Chen Tang pondered for a moment, did not stay here, picked up some dry firewood and left.

As soon as he walked out of the woods, he saw a group of people gathered around his carriage. Most of the people in the Plum Blossom Martial Arts School convoy gathered over and formed a group, not knowing what was going on.

Chen Tang frowned and hurried over with big strides.

"what happened?"

Chen Tang was tall and he swung his arms, pushed the crowd aside in no time and squeezed in.

Zhiwei stood there timidly, feeling a little at a loss as to what to do.

Qing Mu stood in front of her, looking at the surging crowd opposite, their murderous eyes, their spit flying. He couldn't help but look shocked and angry, not knowing what to do.

The fat old man poked his round head out of the car window and watched the scene leisurely.

Seeing Chen Tang coming, Qing Mu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Just now, a group of teenagers came to find Zhiwei and wanted to take her to play over there. Zhiwei refused to go, and a few of them came up and made a move, trying to take her over there by force."

Qing Mu said: "I couldn't bear to watch it, so I stopped it."

Qing Mu explained the cause and process of the incident in just a few words.

"What are you talking about! What do you mean by touching me? My Wen Dong is the most well-behaved person. He follows the rules and knows etiquette. How could he fall for your maid? He even thinks she is dirty!" A gorgeous woman shouted at the top of her voice.

"That's right. How big of a problem can there be between two kids? Do you need to intervene and even use weapons? Do you know any rules?"

Qing Mu quickly explained: "I didn't use the blade of the sword, I just used the scabbard to block them back, and I didn't use too much force."

"Who said you didn't use too much force? My child was crying because of the pain!"

The other woman held the young man in her arms and pushed him gently.

The young man was originally glancing over here, and when he heard what was said he immediately understood and started howling loudly.

"Apologize!"

"Compensate!"

"You and that maidservant must apologize to us and let us fight back!"

"It's just a joke between kids, and you, an adult, resort to weapons. How dare you!"

"After all, she is from the countryside and doesn't know the rules." "That maid doesn't know how to respect you. She was raised by her mother but not taught by her!"

"Don't go too far. After all, you were the ones who provoked Zhiwei first!" Mei Yingxue's words were quickly drowned out, and she seemed a little powerless.

Dozens of people on the opposite side were talking at the same time, spitting at the same time, which was enough to drown out this side.

Qing Mu could be ruthless when dealing with the Evil Wolf Gang, but when faced with this group of women throwing tantrums and looking at their scoundrel faces, he was at a loss for a moment.

She couldn't just draw her sword and kill all of them.

After all, the situation between the two sides has not reached that point yet.

But if she was asked to pay compensation and apologize, she couldn't swallow it.

After all, it was the other party who provoked Zhiwei first.

If she hadn't taken action just now, Zhiwei would have been dragged over by the group of teenagers and would have definitely been bullied!
This matter has become such a big deal that Zhiwei already feels sorry for Chen Tang. She thinks that she has caused trouble for the family. Her eyes are red and she feels aggrieved and helpless.

When she heard the words 'You have a mother who raised you, but not a mother who educates you', she couldn't hold back her tears any longer.

Although some memories are fuzzy.

But she clearly remembered that she had a mother.

Her mother was a gentle and amiable person. She treated her very well and taught her a lot.

Mei Nianzhi felt a headache when he saw this scene.

If he had known this, he should have stopped the group of teenagers when they passed by, so that the situation wouldn't have become so big and difficult to deal with.

Although the cause was caused by Gou Dai and his men, there are many people on this side and the mood is very excited. Each of them is a well-known figure in Changze County. If this matter is not handled well, it will be difficult to end.

"Please be patient and listen to me."

Mei Nianzhi said in a deep voice: "This matter stems from some misunderstandings. Everyone calm down. Since this girl hurt someone, it is only natural for her to apologize and compensate. As for the fight back, please be merciful..."

"no!"

Before Mei Nianzhi could finish his words, he was interrupted by a woman.

Another wealthy businessman said in a deep voice: "Master Mei, although this is just a fight between children, we still need to give an explanation. We can't just let it go."

Several members of the Evil Wolf Gang also took the opportunity to stir up trouble, saying, "Master Mei, please don't try to smooth things over."

Mei Nianzhi was secretly annoyed.

The cause of this incident is that you did not discipline your children at home, allowing them to act recklessly and cause trouble.

Now, not only is he making excuses, but he is also ruthless when he is in power.

Chen Tang remained silent throughout the entire time and looked extremely calm.

He stroked Zhiwei's back with his left hand, wiped away the tears on Zhiwei's face with his right hand, leaned over slightly, and asked softly: "Who were those who pulled you just now? Point them out so I can see."

Zhiwei cried and shook her head, saying only: "Brother Atang, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

"It's okay, don't be afraid. Who are they?"

Chen Tang said softly.

"What do you want to do?"

When the group of people on the opposite side heard what Chen Tang said, they immediately directed their attacks at Chen Tang.

"Ziqi, you go over there. We'll just watch here and see what he wants to do!"

"That's right, all of you kids, stand up and show this Tiger Subduing Knight!"

"If he dares to touch a hair on your head, I'll find someone to kill him!"

The men sneered and pushed their children out.
