Advance the future and become a martial saint on earth!

Chapter 141: Old friends are all over Jiangyin, stepping on the Sky Sword, and attending the funeral. When everyone is looking at us sideways, we still have the heroic spirit to keep going!

Jiangyin Prefecture, jade shop.

At the end of Langfang, which is supported by pillars, the aroma of aged Pu'er tea fills the air.

Cai Shoujing, the head of the jade industry, one of the nine masters of the upper nine industries, looked at his well-behaved granddaughter and counted on the sandalwood abacus in his hand:
"You damn girl, if your brother hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have known that you went out to fool around a while ago. Not only did you run to the county below, but you also got involved with Duan Chenzhou's disciples."

Cai Shoujing was wearing a silk robe, had a round belly, white hair draped over his shoulders, jade and pearls on his ten fingers, and was short in stature, like a local rich man in the countryside, with a shrewd look all over him.

He thought of his own illegitimate son, the fourth child, and then looked at his eldest son's good granddaughter Cai Ling'er, and said in a bad tone:

"That man was very arrogant back then. He chopped off my own son with his own hands in my own place."

"Although the fourth child is a good-for-nothing and my mother is a worthless person, I have to apologize to Wang Xuanyang because I was forced to do so."

"Why are you associated with that lineage?"

Cai Ling'er was dressed in a blue silk dress with a front lapel and fine gold-plated patterns on the shoulders. She was dressed elegantly and gracefully, looked like a royal family, and behaved appropriately. She was completely different from how she looked in Anning County more than a month ago.

But after hearing what his old man said, he just curled his lips:

"When I met Ji Xiu, I didn't know whose disciple he was. Besides, the dead are the greatest. His master is gone, so what does the debt of gratitude and hatred have to do with the next generation?"

"When will the injustice be repaid?"

"And old man, why did you think of calling me over today to ask about Ji Xiu?"

"I have mentioned to you several times in the past month or so that we can bring him to our 'Jade Business', but you didn't agree?"

Cai Ling'er put her hands on her hips, her beautiful eyes were dark, and Cai Shoujing snorted when he saw it. The jade ring on his finger touched the sandalwood abacus:
"Can't grandpa call her over to see him if he misses his granddaughter?"

"Besides, you are a good girl, why are you so interested in weird things like refining equipment and digging graves?"

Cai Shoujing was grumbling in his stomach.

His granddaughter was outstanding in appearance, with the most exquisite looks.

Even the girl from Mrs. Ye's embroidery business, who was in the same upper nine trades and a well-matched family, was not much better than her.

As a result, Ye Ningzhi became a disciple of the Jinghong Sword Sect, one of the "Six High Mountains", and made great achievements in martial arts. She is clearly a top candidate for an official position after the spring.

Instead, she followed the "official craftsman" Feng Zhaoyuan to learn how to forge tools and swing a hammer!

Although it was a state imperial gift, he was a master craftsman of Qi Dao, with the power to forge spiritual weapons, and his status was comparable to that of a government official.

But when Cai Shoujing thought of his granddaughter swinging a hammer, he couldn't hold back.

"What's wrong with refining weapons and digging graves, old man? Have you forgotten the stories of how you made your fortune when you held me in your arms when I was a child?"

"How did you get here? You just dug up other people's graves and looked for those valuable jades to buy and sell."

"If you hadn't been lucky enough to dig up a tomb of a titled person and had such a fortuitous encounter, how could there be the jade business in Jiangyin today? Learning to swing a hammer is better than working in the field all day long, right?"

Cai Linger's eyes widened, she disagreed with this, and argued so convincingly that she almost choked Cai Shoujing:
"Cough, cough, cough!"

"How dare you say anything, you little bitch? You should ask your good father who died outside to come back and discipline you."

"call"

After calming down for a while, Cai Shoujing finally frowned:
"Anyway, Grandpa called you here today to tell you that the boy you were friends with before has entered the mansion."

When Cai Ling'er heard this, her eyes lit up and she stepped forward and slammed the table, startling Cai Shoujing who was calculating.

"Ji Xiu came to Jiangyin?"

"Hmm."

Her eyes turned, her teeth itched, and she couldn't help but complain in her heart:

"My aunt is a noble lady, and you order me around every day. When you come to Jiangyin Prefecture, it's like a dragon swimming in shallow water. This place is not like Jiangyin. I wonder how you can still be so arrogant in front of me."

When the girl thought of this, she seemed to think of the Ji Dongjia standing in front of her. He was so reserved after having seen the world. The more she thought about it, the happier she became. She even hummed:

"I will bring a few top-level leather refining experts to beat you up and give you a good vent."

Cai Ling'er didn't tell anyone the details of what happened in Anning County.

However, Cai Shoujing, one of the Nine Lords of Jiangyin, couldn't help but feel a shudder in his heart when he saw his granddaughter's appearance.
"This damn girl, will she go out and play some drama for me, the noble lady in the mansion, who falls in love with the poor boy in the countryside at first sight?"

"Damn it, his dead father is very powerful outside. Sooner or later, the jade business will be handed over to his lineage. His father only has her as a daughter. If this damn girl turns her elbow out..."

In his eyes, Cai Ling'er's worried look was simply too much of a portrait, so his face immediately darkened and his tone was cold and firm:
"Yes, that's the boy."

"Grandpa called you today to tell you not to get involved with that kid!"

"Not long ago, his master Duan Chenzhou passed away. After hearing the news, this kid came all the way here to attend the funeral."

"Wasn't he in Anning County before? I heard that he swallowed a 'guardian god'?"

"The owners of the fishing and medicine businesses, Chen Jing and Old Man Huang, hated him so much that they were willing to use their connections to frame him for 'having liaisons with the evil spirits'."

"Just now, they asked me to join them in settling the old scores and kill that guy."

"Don't cause trouble for me at this critical moment."

As soon as Cai Shoujing finished speaking, Cai Ling'er heard it and her original plan instantly dissipated like a dark cloud. Her beautiful dark eyes widened:
"what?"

"Secretly communicating with a god?"

"No, those people are unreasonable!"

"I saw everything that happened at that time. Ye Ningzhi from the Ye family even learned Ji Xiu's secret martial arts. The former county lord of the wine shop was also on good terms with him."

"These people can all testify for him and clear him of suspicion. How can they rush to arrest people?"

Cai Ling'er stamped her feet, with resentment in her eyes.

Cai Shoujing frowned:
"What are the status of Chen Jing and Old Man Huang in the mansion? What is the status of that kid called Ji Xiu?"

"The Nine Lords of Jiangyin have the authority to govern a prefecture on behalf of the prefectural master. This year, it just so happens that Chen Jing is the 'Helmsman of the Thirty-Six Trades'."

"They want to arrest someone, and they even asked for the Northern Pacification Division's commander to be arrested on suspicion of colluding with the gods. Why do they need evidence?"

"This boxing right is the evidence!"

"In the face of this great situation, unless Wang Xuanyang is resurrected and Marquis Bei Cang shows up, no one will have enough face, you..."

Cai Shoujing was still talking when he found that his good granddaughter had kicked over the table. He was just showing surprise in his eyes, and then he saw Cai Ling'er shaking her ponytail and not turning her head:
"Where in the world is there such a thing?"

"I'll go find my master! Doesn't he have a personal relationship with Lord Fuzun?"

"I just don't believe in the heaven of Jiangyin Prefecture."

"There is no law anymore!"

Ugh!
Cai Shoujing just stretched out his hand, but found that the little girl had disappeared.

Suddenly, his palms clenched tightly, and the jade rings on each finger creaked, and he couldn't help cursing:
"You little brat, you are just like your dead father. You don't even take me, your grandfather, seriously!"

"It's okay that your father has grown up, but I was the one who brought you up."

But in the end, when Cai Shoujing saw the figure slowly walking away, his originally angry expression slowly subsided.

His eyes, which were narrowed into a slit, slowly drooped as the room became quieter, and his expression changed. His eyes were as deep and calm as a lake.

He looked at the sandalwood abacus splashed with Pu'er tea, which had fallen to the ground because Cai Ling'er overturned the table.

He was not angry, but picked it up silently, and moved it back and forth. He could hear the beads falling beside his ears, and he could not help but whisper:

"But she is quite fierce, like her father, that villain."

"It's not a big deal to offend a few old guys on this trip. It's just a fight between the younger generation. It's not something that can be brought to the surface."

"Those old guys don't dare to ask me about this. Otherwise, I'll smash their heads with an abacus!"

"If Ji Xiu doesn't live up to his expectations, then it will be just a reflection of my youthful spirit. After all, everyone has been young before."

"But if you strive for success."

Cai Shoujing looked through the screen and recalled the time when he went to Jin'ao Island and met the master of the Tiandao School, Wang Xuanyang. He was pressed so hard that his muscles were trembling, as if he saw the vast sea and the mountains.
He couldn't help but shudder and sighed:
"That would be terrible."

The same scene.

Jiangyin Prefecture, Embroidered Clothes Shop.

Ye Ningzhi pursed her lips, wearing a pure white dress, and looked at the owner of the shop, Grandma Ye, who had a cold face and was leaning on an ebony crutch, and said in a very serious tone:

"Duan Chenzhou once taught my granddaughter, so he was her nominal master. Ji Xiu once taught me secret martial arts, and I have always treated him as my senior brother."

"The nominal master has passed away. Even Senior Brother Ji has come to the funeral. I want to go too!"

The woman raised her slender neck, and she was strong and competitive all her life. Seeing this, Grandma Ye, the owner of the embroidery shop, was speechless for a long time, and could only say coldly:
"As you please."

"But this time, someone from the 'Six High Mountains' might show up at the Tiandao School. If you go, you will be slapping the face of your Jinghong Sword School's ancestor. If you bump into him, won't you be betrayed?"

Ye Ningzhi turned her back and paused when she heard the words, but she still held the slender sword at her waist and did not look back.

Liquor store.

"Get out of here!"

"If you dare to go today, I will pretend that I never gave birth to a son like you and ejaculated on the wall!" Bang!
The owner of the wine shop, Zhao Ding, had a ruddy nose and rosy cheeks. He smashed the wine pot in his hand to pieces with a "snap", cursed, and kicked a figure out of the house:

"I thought that since you came back from An Ning, you knew how difficult it was to be the county lord. You lost it and felt guilty. That's why I went to your father today to admit my mistake and put on a show of 'loving father and filial son'."

"After three rounds of drinks, feelings are waiting for me here?"

"You still want your father to go to the pharmacy to cause trouble because of what happened to you in An Ning, and take your little brother Ji with him?"

"What do you think of Old Man Huang as a pushover?"

"You are a playboy who lives on women and women and indulges in sensual pleasures. You are a pure dandy. I don't even know your character. Why are you pretending to be a brother?"

"If your brother wasn't capable and famous in Cangdu, you would have lost the position of 'Anning County Lord' just because of you this time."

"I'll beat you to death!"

"Let me ask you, that kid is in big trouble himself, what's the point in helping him?"

County Master Zhao, who was covering his head with his hands, had a large bruise on his forehead and was baring his teeth, became anxious when he heard the words "debauchery".

"You old thing, my brother is capable of being valued by the title, that's because he has the ability, which is much better than you guarding your little piece of land."

"Do you think that I lost the An Ning County Lord because of my incompetence? I'm telling you, old man, you misjudged me, Zhao Jiu, today!"

"You don't even know what I, Brother Ji, am. With your lousy career, I, Jiu Ye, won't even have a future."

boom!
Too lazy to listen to his rebellious son's nagging, the drunk Zhao Ding went up and kicked Zhao Jiu, knocking him to the ground while picking his ears:
"Then go find your 'good brother'."

"Don't blame your father for not reminding you."

Zhao Ding said "Hey":
"That kid has now gone to the Tiandao School on Jin'ao Island."

"Not only did the fishing and medicine industries ask the Northern Pacification Office to arrest people, but many Taoist temples also made a special trip to get involved after hearing about Duan Chenzhou's funeral. There are also shadows of schools behind this."

"You are so small, and you live a life of luxury every day. How dare you take on this porcelain job when you don't have the diamonds?"

He looked her up and down with a disdainful look.

Hearing this, Zhao Jiu became furious:
"You old fool, do you think I don't dare to go?"

"I, Zhao Jiu, have never been afraid in my life!"

He cursed and was helped up by Liang Bo who was standing beside him and didn't dare to say a word:

"Old Liang, let's go!"

"Hey, Master Jiu."

Uncle Liang looked at Zhao Jiu with admiration.

His grandfather has really become a brave man ever since he experienced the disaster in Anning County!

Now even the master dares to confront me.
Just as Zhao Jiu was about to step out of the door of the liquor store, Zhao Ding, drunk, stood behind him and said out of the blue:
"You're going today."

"If something happens in the future, don't mention my name."

Zhao Jiu paused.

After a while, he sneered:
"Then I'll go to Cangdu to find my brother and tell him about you!"

After finishing speaking, Zhao Jiuwei raised his head, the smell of alcohol rising up, and he was suddenly filled with passion.

Leaning on red and green, enjoying the pleasures of life?
I didn't intend to make it so awkward.
But this time,
I want you, old man, to see what it means to be loyal and righteous and to stand by your side!

Until Zhao Jiu walked away.

Zhao Ding watched silently.

"Little Master Jiu does have a bit of a temper, just like his brother."

Beside him, Old Wu, who manages the wine cellar, was smiling.

Hear this.

Zhao Ding smiled, which was rare:

"of course."

"Could it be my seed?"

"Go ahead, even if I don't recognize this son."

The alcohol was still on his face, and he was still drunk and arrogant. He just waved his hand and said:
"Inside and outside the Jiangyin Prefecture, how can we not give him some face?"

"Humph!"

Tiandao Style, Jinao Island.

Ji Xiu rode on a warship, splitting the waves and opening the river, and crashed into this place!

Zhang Qing on the ship was wearing armor and holding a sharp weapon, with a heroic look on his face. He looked at Ji Xiu beside him and said in a serious tone:

"Brother, the general said that he can't help you in the future."

"But if you can't hold on today, he will come out to support you!"

"Just do what you want. I'll be waiting here. Just let me know when you need me."

Zhang Qing patted his armored chest.

Hearing this, Ji Xiu smiled:

"Then when you go back, remember to thank General Luo for me."

Say it.

Ji Xiu stepped into the base of the Tiandao school where he had conquered the 'Thunderstruck Tribulation Wood' last time and transformed into a jade skin. It was also the only blessed island among the dozens of surrounding islands!
Sizzle, sizzle.
Looking at this island along the memory of not long ago.

Ji Xiu tore off the cloth strips wrapped around the blade of the Five Deteriorating Heavenly Sword bit by bit.

Looking at those golden characters carved with a knife and an axe
The young man exhaled a breath, then his eyes became determined, and he stepped into the Tiandao School step by step!

Traveling quickly.

In front of the ancestral temple where legendary names such as Chen Danding and Wang Xuanyang are listed.

Ji Xiu saw the whole yard filled with white.

At the same time, a large coffin was placed in front of the ancestral hall, square and upright.

at the same time
It is different from the deserted past.

This time, the place was packed with people.

But in front of the Tiandao School's ancestral temple, the school's leader, Chen He, had a stern look on his face, veins bulging on his forehead, and he clenched his fists.

by his side.

Except for the eldest senior brother Qin Zhuo who brought him a gift, the fourth-robed monk Li Songxi and the sixth-robed monk Yin Hong, whom he had met before, were also by his side.

The two of them were pushing a wheelchair, on which sat a young man with a pale face and a decadent look.

In addition to these four
The other fierce warriors, with strong blood and muscles working together, all have an aura like a tsunami, which is very intimidating!

The field was originally plunged into an eerie silence, as if in a standoff.

But with the arrival of Ji Xiu
The eyes of these two groups of people were focused on him at the same time!

Seeing so many warriors looking at me
Ji Xiu couldn't help but curl his lips and sneered.

Then he smashed the half-man-high sword in his hand, embedding it into the sand under his feet, and then untied the white scarf on his forehead, held it tightly, stared at the coffin with clothes, leaned over and bowed from a distance:
"Disciple Ji Xiu, riding the wind and waves of 800 miles, from An Ning to Jiang Yin."

"Come on, give the master a ride!"

Finally, he raised his head:
"The master left early."

"But our lineage has a rule."

Ji Xiu looked around.

Seeing the slightly changed color of the crowd, as well as Master Uncle Chen He and the three senior brothers' eyes all looking at him, he just spread out the white towel in his hand and grinned:
"That is, the master's debt is the disciple's responsibility!"

"Master Duan, you left early, but I still have disciples here!"

This statement came out.

Immediately one word stirred up a thousand waves!

There was even some true energy condensed, and everyone looked at him sideways!

Hidden among these figures, there was a masked figure at the end.

Looking at the coffin, and then at the young man who attracted the attention of the whole audience and stole the show.
His forehead suddenly turned black:
"no,"

"Who taught this kid this rule?!"

"How come I don't know it myself!"
