The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, Becomes a Disciple of Yue Buqun

The child looked about five or six years old and looked chubby.

At this moment, the child looked at Jiang Ning with curiosity in his eyes.

"come over."

Jiang Ning waved at him.

The child was not afraid of strangers and came running over when he saw Jiang Ning calling him.

"What do you see me doing?"

Jiang Ning looked at him with a smile on his face.

The child looked at Jiang Ning for a moment before asking, "Are you Grandpa Li's grandson?"

Jiang Ning smiled and shook his head: "No."

"Then why did you come to Grandpa Li's house?"

The child still looked curious.

"I'm just staying here temporarily. I'll be leaving tomorrow."

Jiang Ning replied.

"Where to go?"

The child tilted his head.

Jiang Ning pointed in a direction: "Over there."

The child looked in the direction, his expression instantly became frightened, and he spoke quickly.

"There are bad guys over there, don't go there. Grandpa Li's son died at the hands of those bad guys."

Hearing these words, Jiang Ning raised his eyebrows and asked, "How did he die? Tell me."

The child shook his head quickly: "My father doesn't let me say that, for fear that Grandpa Li would be sad."

Jiang Ning took out some candied fruits from his arms and handed them to him.

"Eat?"

The child looked at the candied fruit in Jiang Ning's hand curiously but did not take it.

Jiang Ning raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Are you afraid that I will hurt you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Ning put one of the candied fruits into his mouth and chewed it for a few times.

Seeing Jiang Ning eating it, the child curiously took one and put it in his mouth. The next second, his eyes lit up and he stared at the remaining candied fruit of Jiang Ning.

However, Jiang Ning withdrew his hand and looked at him with a smile.

"Do you still want to eat?"

"Hmm."

The child nodded repeatedly.

Jiang Ning smiled and said, "If you tell me the secret just now, I will give it to you."

The child showed a conflicted look on his face, and after a second he said, "Then I'm telling you, don't tell anyone else, and don't tell my dad, or my dad will beat me, and his beatings hurt a lot."

"Don't worry, I have no other advantages except that I keep my mouth shut."

Jiang Ning promised.

The child believed him, sat down on the ground, crossed his legs, and began to tell the story.

"I overheard my father and mother talking."

The child's voice was childish, but his tone was serious.

"My father said that many years ago, not long after Grandpa Li's son and daughter-in-law got married, the bad guys from Tianfeng Village heard that Grandpa Li's daughter-in-law was very beautiful, so they came to our village to rob. Later, when they saw Grandpa Li's daughter-in-law, they wanted to take her back, but Grandpa Li's son refused, so he was stabbed to death, and the daughter-in-law was taken away."

The story is very simple, without any twists and turns in the plot, it's just about bandits killing people.

Jiang Ning had no expression on his face when he heard this, he just nodded.

After the child finished speaking, he looked closely at Jiang Ning's hand.

Jiang Ning gave him all the candied fruits in his hand.

This was bought by Jiang Ning in Yangzhou City. It tastes very good and can be stored for a year. Jiang Ning bought some and planned to bring it back for Liu Zhao and his junior brothers to try.

The child happily ate the candied fruit Jiang Ning gave him.

Jiang Ning then asked, "Do you know the name of Grandpa Li's daughter-in-law?"

The child's face suddenly showed a bewildered look. He racked his brains and thought hard. After a moment, his eyes lit up and he said, "My father said her name seemed to be Wang Yunlan."

Jiang Ning nodded without saying anything else. He looked towards the mountains not far away, wondering what he was thinking.

……

Tianfeng Village.

Main hall.

A group of bandits were sitting around a table eating meat and drinking wine.

At this time, a tall and strong bandit was holding a leg of lamb in his hand and eating it with oil dripping from his mouth, laughing.

"Brother, Jiangnan is still the best place. It's much more profitable than that crappy place in Shaanxi, and there's no devil to kill us."

"you do not say."

One of them chuckled and said, "We have come all the way to Jiangnan, but I'm afraid we will never see the King of Hell in this lifetime."

At this time, a bearded man sitting at the main seat laughed and said, "Brother Hu, is the King of Hell so scary?"

The man who was named said, "Boss, you don't know, the Huashan Sect has started to suppress bandits in Shaanxi for some reason. The King of Hell is even more brutal. He has been suppressing bandits in every village. Wherever he goes, there is a river of blood. No one survives. We are lucky to have escaped from another group of Huashan disciples. When we heard their conversation, we quickly fled here."

A look of fear appeared on this man's face as he spoke. Even though this incident happened a long time ago, he still felt scared.

"Brother, I feel my eyelids twitching lately. Is something going to happen?"

At this time, a bandit with a Shaanxi accent looked a little depressed and said, "I dreamed yesterday that the King of Hell came to find us."

The bandit named Lao Hu glared at the man and cursed: "Don't say such unlucky words at night."

"Is it possible? My brothers and I have traveled thousands of miles from Shaanxi to Jiangnan. Can the King of Hell travel all the way to Jiangnan to suppress us?"

Chapter 284: No, I feel a chill down my spine when I mention him

Chapter 284: No, I feel a chill on my back when I mention him

"Brother is right."

The man nodded: "We have come all the way to Jiangnan to hide from that King of Hell. It's impossible that we can run into him here, right?"

"Brother Hu, is the King of Hell really that scary? Why haven't I heard of him before? Does he have three heads and six arms?"

The leader of Tianfeng Village was really curious when he saw how afraid several people were of one person, even though they were thousands of miles apart.

These people came to his stronghold last year. Seeing that they were tall and strong and had good fighting skills, he kept them.

At first he wondered why these people from Shaanxi came all the way to Jiangnan. Among them, a man named Lao Hu told him that the Huashan Sect was clearing out the bandits in Shaanxi and they couldn't survive there anymore, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Now when he heard the other party mention the name Ning Yanwang again, his curiosity was aroused.

"Brother Hu, from what you just said, isn't he just a Huashan disciple? How dare you call him the King of Hell?"

Seeing the current chief's curiosity, the bandit named Lao Hu said, "Boss, you don't know that although this person is a Huashan disciple, he has extraordinary martial arts skills and is ruthless."

Although this bearded man is the village chief, he is basically a bandit in the Jiangnan area. He usually robs people on the road and loots nearby villages. He doesn't care much about the affairs of the underworld, especially those thousands of miles away.

"Two years ago, the Huashan Sect suddenly wanted to suppress bandits. The leader of Huashan Sect, Yue Buqun, asked two of his disciples, one named Linghu Chong and the other named Jiang Ning, to lead the Huashan disciples to sweep across Shaanxi. Ning Yanwang was one of them."

Talking about the past, the bandit's face was bitter: "Thinking back to the time when the stronghold where we brothers lived was not a big one, and life was not as good as the one in the boss's place, but at least we had wine and meat, and we could go down the mountain to capture a few women to relieve boredom when we had nothing to do."

"But since those Huashan disciples attacked the mountain stronghold, our brothers have died one after another. We were lucky that we didn't run into Ning Yanwang's team, so we survived by chance."

Although the team they encountered was led by Linghu Chong, it was Jiang Ning who left them with psychological trauma.

"We originally thought that the Huashan disciples who massacred us were cruel enough, but we didn't expect there are even more cruel ones than them."

"I heard from the Huashan disciples who massacred our stronghold that none of the brothers in the strongholds that Jiang Ning massacred could escape his clutches. He massacred everyone wherever he went."

"Later, we brothers decided that we couldn't stay in Shaanxi anymore, so we fled to Luoyang. Later, we heard that the King of Hell went down the mountain to Sichuan and massacred the Qingcheng Sect, a major sect in Sichuan. We brothers felt that Luoyang was not safe either, so we fled here."

The big boss nodded thoughtfully and asked curiously, "Then why is he called the King of Hell in the martial arts world?"

The bandit smiled bitterly and said, "It was us brothers who spread his name."

"Oh?"

The boss became curious.

"Hey."

The bandit sighed and said, "At that time, we brothers were still in Luoyang. We took refuge in a mountain stronghold and temporarily settled down. When we had nothing to do, we would go to Luoyang City to eat, drink and have fun. We lived a pretty good life. I didn't expect that not long after, a storyteller in a teahouse would tell his story."

"When we heard that the King of Hell slaughtered so many mountain strongholds in Shaanxi and then went to Sichuan to slaughter the Qingcheng Sect and wiped out another large gang, dying wherever he went, just like the King of Hell, we said something, but we didn't expect that the word would be spread."

"I see."

The boss nodded, indicating that his curiosity had been satisfied.

"No, it's better if I don't say it. As soon as I say it, I feel a chill on my back."

The bandit couldn't help but shiver after he finished speaking.

"Brother, now that you mention it, I have the same feeling. I always feel that King Ning is watching us."

The other person also felt a tingling sensation on his back and twisted his body uncomfortably.

"Brother, my eyelids twitch when you mention the King of Hell. Do you think the King of Hell will come to Jiangnan? Why do I feel a little cold? It seems like the King of Hell is coming."

The bandit who had said he dreamed about Jiangning before couldn't help but said worriedly, "Brother, do you think that King of Hell is really coming to Jiangnan to find us?"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

The bandit named Lao Hu waved his hand and immediately retorted: "Shaanxi is thousands of miles away from Jiangnan, and he doesn't know we are here."

Old Hu glared at the bandit and said, "Don't be so suspicious. When we were in Luoyang, you always said that you dreamed that the King of Hell was going to Luoyang, so we left Luoyang and came here. Jiangnan is so far away from Shaanxi, how could he come here? Besides, what would happen if he really came to Jiangnan? Could he come to our place? Is it really such a coincidence?"
