Chapter 5: Rescuing Zhang's Parents and Stealing from Fuwei Escort Agency

Perhaps influenced by the world of King of Glory, or perhaps recalling his past experience of being forced to wander the streets, Zhang Tian harbored immense murderous intent.

They showed absolutely no mercy in their actions.

There was not a single survivor at the scene.

Even chickens and dogs were split in two.

Furthermore, given the greed of those three officials, it's likely not the first time they've done this; they've offended many people and have enemies everywhere.

Zhang Tian was not worried about his identity being exposed.

So what if we're exposed?

Leaving aside whether the Ming Dynasty, now three generations old and already in decline, would choose to investigate this matter, even if it did, how could they find him in this vast and unmonitored era?

"If we act cautiously..."

"After this, take your parents and flee to another place, either to Ryukyu or to Taiwan."

"Not only can they escape the court's pursuit, but they can also occupy land and become kings, leaving their descendants a foundation that can bring them wealth and prosperity for hundreds of years."

But this is The Smiling, Proud Wanderer.

This is a martial arts world.

King Zhang Tian is still waiting for his rice to be cooked.

Of course, we cannot be so cautious.

So Zhang Tian had already figured out his escape route: "I'll find a safe enough village near Hengshan, use Hengshan's power to settle them down first, and then after I take power, I'll send them to towns to live out their old age in anonymity."

However, it's best not to get involved with him.

After all, he wanted to collect all sorts of top-notch secret manuals from the world of Laughing at the World, almost 90% of which were treasures of various sects that would not be circulated to the outside world.

To obtain these top-tier secrets, one cannot do without using certain methods. However, if you use such methods, others will also use them, which might end up harming your parents.

Zhang Tianmou planned ahead and behind.

This will save me trouble in the future.

Then he rode quickly to the place where his parents were imprisoned and forced to work. It was to reclaim wasteland. Although it was hard and tiring, it was much better than building canals and roads, burning stones and mining.

At least he's still alive!

And to rescue them.

It went more smoothly than I had imagined.

Zhang Tian did not use any force; he simply used some silver he had taken from the three officials' homes to buy some good wine and then switched the person out.

The military officer in charge of guarding them even generously provided them with a carriage to help them escape.

The higher-ups are corrupt, and the lower-ups are corrupt as well.

This demonstrates the utter depravity of military discipline.

It is hard to imagine how such a situation could have given rise to the disciplined Qi Family Army, which ranked highly in history and was almost undefeated in its campaigns against Japanese pirates.

"Tian'er, is that you?"

"Father, Mother, it's me!"

Looking at Zhang Tian as he grew up, Zhang's father and mother could only vaguely recall a few of his former features, and tears streamed down their faces.

There was a family tragedy back then.

Overnight, everything changed drastically. Many family members were implicated, some died, some were scattered, and the two of them were exiled so far away that they had long given up the idea of ​​ever seeing each other again.

Who would have thought we'd meet again!

Zhang Tian drove the carriage, talking as he went, "I suffered a misfortune back then and could only wander the streets, becoming a beggar. Later, I was fortunate to have a benefactor, which allowed me to survive..."

He did not mention Hengshan.

He also did not mention his master, Mr. Mo Da.

He only said that he had become a strongman who could scale walls and leap across rooftops.

"The three families that harmed our Zhang family back then, totaling seventeen people, have all paid with their lives. Although I have done my job cleanly, I am afraid that if I leave any trace, I will implicate you."

"You two must not let this slip out. I will find someone to help you get proper identities and leave you some money so you can enjoy your old age in peace."

"However, I'm afraid we won't be able to meet as easily as ordinary families in the future!"

Zhang's mother heard about her former good child.

Now he has become a bandit who robs and plunders.

With over a dozen lives on his hands, and yet he spoke of it so casually, his eyes immediately reddened, and he began to weep.

On the contrary, Zhang's father, having seen the world, sighed softly, "It's all this damned, unjust world's fault. Let the strong be the strong, do we not want to be good people?"

They were doing their business well.

He was swindled out of his money by that fake county magistrate.

The imperial court did not make amends for the losses.

Instead, they turned around and accused us.

He ended up with his wife and children separated, his family destroyed and his life ruined, and he has not been able to clear his name for a long time. How can anyone forgive him?

He's still young and can still manage the household. "Go ahead and do it. I'll take care of things at home, so things won't fall apart. But remember, it's not easy to force someone to do something they don't understand. It's a dangerous business, so make sure you have a way out! Don't fall for the tricks of that scoundrel Song Jiang!"

Song Jiang, regardless of the dynasty.

They're all quite annoying.

A good person should be a good person.

A bad person should be a bad person.

Today you're a good person, tomorrow a bad person, and the day after tomorrow you want to surrender and be a good person again. Such spineless people who surrender and want to lose half their losses are despised by everyone.

Zhang Tian nodded.

They drove the carriage and found a place to stay.

Then he went for a stroll in the city to find a reliable helper.

It's called Fuwei Escort Agency.

Because he possesses the ability to move freely and has Arthur's passive ability, he can travel a thousand miles a day without eating or drinking, and come and go freely.

But if you bring Zhang's parents along.

Then we can only travel slowly.

Take a walk, and then take a rest.

It was a real waste of time.

So he found the largest security escort agency in the area and placed a shipment order there: "To deliver two people to the foot of Hengshan Mountain, a journey of about three hundred li. Are you willing to take this shipment?"

"The guest is joking."

The head镖师 (bodyguard/escort) glanced at the silver and immediately said with unwavering confidence, "The head of my Fuwei镖局 (escort agency) has been in business for three generations. We have many friends in the martial arts world, and both the legitimate and illegitimate sides give us face. We even have ten branches and eighty-four head镖师 in Guangdong and Guangxi. Our reputation in the martial arts world is renowned, there's no mistake about it!"

The head镖师 (bodyguard/escort) wore a smug expression.

They accepted the shipment immediately.

They arranged a time for Zhang Tian to go on the mission, and all he had to do was come on time and not miss the trip.

However, he couldn't help but ask, "I see that you are agile and swift, with the stride of a dragon and the gait of a tiger. You also carry a heavy sword on your back, so you must know martial arts."

"I haven't heard of any powerful figures along the way."

"Why bother with escorting goods?"

The head镖师 (bodyguard/escort) wasn't stupid; he didn't want to ruin his own business. Instead, he was cautious and wary of any potential traps.

After all, in his view, if it were just a carriage belonging to an ordinary family, even if the bandits on the mountain saw it, they wouldn't bother to take action, because it wouldn't be enough to make a profit.

If Zhang Tian knew some martial arts.

Regardless of high or low.

The robbers knew it was a hot potato and wouldn't risk their lives; they'd be content with just asking for a toll.

Why spend money on escort services?

Zhang Tian laughed it off and made up a reason to brush it off; he naturally wouldn't tell the other party his real purpose.

because……

He's going to another place.

He's going to steal their hometown!
