My Wandering Swordsman

Assistant Director Wang stood there dumbfounded, completely bewildered. He couldn't understand what kind of magic I had used to scare a big shot like Lü Guodong like this.

I knew the time was right, so I stepped forward with a smile.

"Mr. Lü, please don't be nervous."

I lowered my voice to a whisper: "Your business isn't that big, but it's not that small either. Going in will only be for three to five years; you won't lose your head."

Cold sweat dripped down Lü Guodong's forehead one bead after another.

"What...what exactly do you want?"

I continued laughing, "Nothing much. We Chinese value harmony and making money. If you do business honestly, you're just a pile of worthless paper. But if you try to use underhanded tactics against me..."

I didn't finish my sentence; I just gave him a meaningful look.

Lu Guodong, panting heavily, his chest heaving, forced out a sentence through gritted teeth:

"We keep to ourselves, why would I bother with you?"

I laughed. "Keep to your own business? I beat your son to a pulp before I even walked in the door." But I didn't bring that up this time.

"Oh, you're mistaken. You just need to promise not to use dirty tricks on me or my people."

Lu Guodong frowned:

"It's that simple? You don't want any money?"

"It's that simple."

Lu Guodong suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay!"

I laughed, a very bright laugh.

"It's a deal."

At this moment, I was already imagining his expression when he saw his son.

Lu Guodong nodded: "It's a deal."

After saying that, he didn't even look at me, turned around, and staggered out, looking as if he had suddenly aged ten years.

"Mr. Lü, please wait!" I suddenly shouted.

He flinched and turned his head: "What now?"

I didn't say anything, but stretched out a finger, pointed downwards, and slowly tapped it a few times.

Lu Guodong's eyes widened to the size of eggs, and he stammered, "You...you really want me to kneel?"

"Otherwise what?" I smiled broadly. "Oh, right, you're a big investor, I'll give you some face..."

"Hey you, take your men and get out of here!" I pointed at Assistant Director Wang.

"What's wrong?" Assistant Director Wang clenched his fist.

He looked at Lü Guodong, desperately hoping the other would give the order to tear the wretched kid in front of him to pieces. But after waiting for a long time, all he got in return was a sentence that drained all his strength.

"Director Wang, please step outside for a moment," Lü Guodong said, his head bowed.

"no?!"

"go out!"

Deputy Director Wang and his men slunk away, and the front door slammed shut behind them.

About half a minute later, Lü Guodong, his face ashen, stumbled out and jumped into his car without looking back.

No one knows what happened inside.

However, Assistant Director Wang and the others could clearly see that when Lü Guodong came out, there was a thin layer of incense ash on his knees...

He stood there stunned, as if struck by lightning.

What's wrong with this world? Investors are kneeling down to extras?

A moment later, the front hall door was pushed open, and I strolled out slowly.

When Assistant Director Wang, who was struggling internally, saw me come out, he immediately jumped up:

"Season, season..."

I glanced at him and said, "Just call me Master Ji."

Assistant Director Wang's lips trembled, and he swallowed back all his words.

I couldn't be bothered with him and walked straight to the back of the yard.

Assistant Director Wang's eyes darted around twice, and finally, after gritting his teeth, he jogged up to catch up, his face full of obsequiousness: "Teacher Ji, please calm down. I was blind to your greatness before. You are a magnanimous person, please don't hold it against me..."

Hehe~

I sneered inwardly. Teacher Ji? You'd better call me Master Ji and see if I'll even acknowledge you.

Seeing that I didn't respond, Assistant Director Wang's smile froze for a moment, then he quickly forced an even brighter one: "Teacher Ji, would you like some water? I'll get you a cup of tea? The finest Longjing, I'll brew it myself..."

"So noisy!"

I paused, glancing at him indifferently.

Assistant Director Wang's smile froze instantly.

I turned around and continued walking towards the backyard, but after taking seven or eight steps, I suddenly remembered something and stopped.

"Xiao Wang."

"Hey! I'm here!" He jumped right over. "Teacher Ji, what are your instructions?"

Do you have a car?

"A car? Yes, I do."

"Give me the car keys."

Deputy Director Wang was completely terrified at this point. Without any hesitation, he frantically pulled out the keys and handed them to me with both hands.

I didn't answer, but gestured to Liu Zi with my lip: "Liu Zi, drive the car to the backyard."

"Alright!" Liu Zi took the keys and ran off in a flash.

Seeing that I was about to turn around again, Assistant Director Wang couldn't help but ask, "Teacher Ji, where are you... going?"

"Oh," I said lazily. "That guy surnamed Lü left in a hurry and forgot his things. I have to return them, don't I?"

Assistant Director Wang was taken aback, his face full of question marks.

Things? What are you talking about?

......

backyard.

From afar, I saw the Flower Monk squatting on the ground, slapping the First Prince's head repeatedly.

"Snapped!"

"Serves you right for being so arrogant."

"Snapped!"

"I told you not to swear."

"Snapped!"

"I'm calling you..."

I walked over and patted the monk on the shoulder: "Alright, alright, don't kill him."

The eldest prince was curled up on the ground, his face swollen like a pig's head, with one eye bruised and the other purple.

Hearing my movement, he suddenly looked up, his face filled with disbelief.

Didn't Lü Guodong come? His father came, and his father actually didn't kill me?

How is this possible?!

I crouched down and looked at him with a smile: "Can you talk?"

Seeing that I didn't make a move, the eldest prince was taken aback, probably thinking that his father had played a role, and immediately raised his head. Given his personality, he would feel it would be a disservice not to say a few polite words in this kind of situation.

So he tried to open and close his sausage lips a few times, and mumbled out a harsh word:

"Scared now? Let me tell you, my dad..."

"Snapped!"

I slapped him hard across the face, then stood up, clapped my hands, and said, "Alright, as long as you can speak, that's fine."

Before the eldest prince could react, I continued:

"Since you can still speak, then apologize to everyone one last time. I'll take you back."

what?

The eldest prince looked up abruptly, his face filled with astonishment.

Another apology?

He was about to curse when the Flower Monk glared at him fiercely, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked. The smile on my face gradually faded.

Looking at us, who resembled demons, the Crown Prince ultimately couldn't utter the words he was about to say.

After a long while, he swallowed hard a few times, lowered his head, and squeezed out a few words:

"I'm so sorry..."

After he finished speaking, his knees buckled, and he knelt on the ground, his forehead hitting the ground heavily.

"Thump."

A muffled thud.

The extras looked at each other, their expressions complex.

Seeing that he knew what was good for him, I patted him on the shoulder and said, "Alright, get up."

The monk pulled him up from the ground. The prince was swaying and could barely stand.

Liu Zi drove Wang, the deputy director, over too. I gestured towards the trunk with my lip: "Throw them in. They've had their fun, it's time to send them back."

Without saying a word, the monk grabbed the eldest prince by the back of the collar and threw him in.

I opened the passenger door, rolled down the window, stuck half my head out, and bowed slightly to the extras gathered in the courtyard.

"Sorry, everyone, there's only one of these beasts. I was thinking of having everyone kick it once, but it's not worth killing a person."

"How about this, everyone spit once, and that'll be the end of it."
