I was favored by the evil god, and I became a white-bone bodhisattva.

Zhao Taiping smiled bitterly and said, "Later, seeing that I failed in my medical studies, my mother had no choice but to teach me kung fu. She wanted me to work as a housekeeper or nurse in the hospital in the future, so that I could at least make a living."

But...

"I never thought I was actually a martial arts genius. I practiced and practiced, and before I knew it, I had become a martial arts master!"

Zhao Taiping became a master at a young age. Although he was named Taiping, he was actually very wild.

After his parents passed away, he worked as a handyman in the inn during the day and did justice at night.

Over the years, his reputation grew and he eventually became the masked hero of Sifang Town.

"Tangtang, there is one thing I can't figure out."

After listening to Zhao Taiping's story, the little girl was extremely puzzled and asked, "Uncle Zhao, why do you want to be a handyman in the inn?"

It is completely understandable that I cannot give up my peaceful life because of my mother's last wish.

But there are so many jobs in town, why do you choose to work as a handyman in the inn?

It’s not that I look down on menial work, the key point is that this job is simply not suitable for Zhao Taiping!

With Zhao Taiping's personality, setting up a stall to sell pears would be ten times more comfortable than working as a handyman in an inn.

“I didn’t think about it at first.”

Zhao Taiping said something vaguely and then made a request to the little girl.

"Ms. Tangtang, I'm going to visit my parents' graves tomorrow. Can you come with me?"

Chapter 320: Breaking Free

Zhao Taiping went to visit the graves of his parents, but asked Tangtang to go with him, apparently wanting to use the little girl's corpse speaking skills to communicate with the deceased.

Of course, he knew that the young practitioner had no reason to help him, so he paused for a moment before continuing.

"If Miss Tangtang is willing to use the art of corpse speaking to help me communicate with the yin and yang, then Zhao Taiping is also willing to serve Miss Tangtang wholeheartedly and do his best to be her bodyguard for three years."

No, no, if the masked hero becomes Tangtang's bodyguard, then who will uphold justice for the people of Sifang Town?

"Tangtang is willing to help you, but Uncle Zhao doesn't need to be Tangtang's bodyguard."

Seeing that Zhao Taiping was hesitant to speak, the little girl smiled and said, "When you helped me in the restaurant, Uncle Zhao, you definitely didn't think of asking Tangtang for any reward, right?"

After years of doing justice, this is truly the most heartwarming sentence Zhao Taiping has ever heard.

"Thank you!"

Bowing to the little girl, Zhao Taiping opened the door and walked downstairs.

"What took you so long to talk? Go outside and feed the guests' horses!"

The shopkeeper urged Zhao Taiping to work, but he said without turning his head: "I have to go to visit my parents' graves tomorrow, so I have to go home and prepare today."

Hey!

I told you to rest before and you came back, now I ask you to work and you want to go back again, are you making fun of me?

"Zhao Taiping, you don't want your wages anymore?"

"If you don't come the day after tomorrow, then forget it!"

Waving his hand behind the shopkeeper's back, Zhao Taiping strode back to prepare the offerings.

.....

"Dad, are you looking for me?"

The name of Lieshenhu is majestic enough, but his father's name is even better, his name is - Lietianlong.

"You went to that old man Wang's house, beat him up, and forced him to give his daughter to you as a concubine?"

This is indeed the case, but it sounds too harsh.

"Dad, Huilan and I are in love..."

"Yes or no?"

Lie Tianlong was rarely furious, and there was even murderous intent in his eyes.

"Yes, it was Tan Chong who urged me to go. I had already forgotten about the young lady from the Wang family. It's all his fault!"

Lieshenhu shuddered all over and quickly sold out all his lackeys.

"Okay, I'll have his head chopped off right away, and tomorrow night you'll carry his head to apologize to Zhao Taiping."

"..."

The fierce tiger opened his mouth wide, and after a long while he said in disbelief: "Dad, are you crazy?"

"Huh? What did you say? Say it again!"

"No, what's that Zhao guy? Why should my Lie family bow to him?"

Lie Shenhu was anxious: "Dad, even if you chop off Tan Chong's head, I won't go!"

"It's not that my Lie family bowed to him, but my father and he had an agreement to stay out of each other's business. Now that you have taken the initiative to provoke him, I must give him an explanation."

Lie Shen Hu was stunned for a long time before he said in an even more incredible tone: "Zhao Taiping is the masked lunatic? Amazing! He hid himself very well."

Although I was shocked, I had good reasons for it.

But even so, he felt that there was no need for him to apologize to others in such a humble manner.

"Dad, Yan Gongfeng can still help my family once, please ask him to get rid of Zhao Taiping!"

"Confused! Confused!"

Lie Tianlong was furious and slapped his son to the ground.

"A masked hero died today, and another masked hero popped up tomorrow. What should we do? Can you kill all those who are hostile to the Lie family?"

The man grabbed his son and continued to slap him.

"You are just looking for a momentary pleasure, you are a fool! When I am gone in the future, and you have no cultivators to support you, you will be killed by others in less than half a month!"

After being slapped a few times, the Fierce God Tiger lost his temper.

"Stop fighting, stop fighting! Isn't it just to apologize? I'll go, can't I go!"

.......

After burning paper money, lighting incense, and serving a few dishes of home-cooked meals, Zhao Taiping glanced at the little girl.

"Uncle Zhao, your mother responded, but your father didn't."

Zhao Taiping smiled and said, "My father has always trusted me, but my mother is always worried about me. Miss Tangtang, what did my mother say to you just now?"

"She asked Tangtang to ask you, why do you always feel aggrieved and uncomfortable every time you come to visit the grave?"

Zhao Taiping was stunned, and subconsciously retorted: "How could that be? I have never felt wronged."

"Uncle Zhao, your mother said that whenever you are unhappy, you pinch your thumb between your index and middle fingers. Although you didn't do that today, you always did that before."

"..."

Zhao Taiping was shocked and no longer doubted the little girl's "corpse speaking skill".

"I, Zhao Taiping, have never wanted to live a peaceful life! Maybe for you, a peaceful life is really a blessing. But not for me! I am just your son, I am not you!"

After a moment's silence, Zhao Taiping suddenly exploded.

"I have all these skills, not for guarding other people's homes, not for enjoying some comfort! I want to take care of the injustices everywhere, I want to be a hero and do good!"

The little girl nodded repeatedly, as if she agreed with Zhao Taiping's words, and as if she was listening to the words of the deceased.

"Your mother said that you are too young and don't understand anything."

"Get married and have children quickly. Only when you have a family will you mature."

It's exactly my mother's tone. It's hard to imagine that she was a female warrior with great martial arts skills when she was young.

Zhao Taiping sighed, and then said firmly: "If getting married and having children will make me 'mature', then let me live alone for the rest of my life!"

......

The little girl scratched her head and looked a little embarrassed.

But in the end, she still imitated the tone of Zhao Taiping's mother and started cursing.

"Unfilial son, if I had known this would happen, I would not have taught you any Kung Fu!"

"If you don't teach me kung fu, you're going to let me become a quack doctor and harm people?"

"If you don't want to be a doctor, you can do something else. Don't think about becoming a hero. Heroes never have a good ending!"

"I am willing! Even if it means I have to die a miserable death, I am willing to be a hero!"

Zhao Taiping pounded his fist: "Mom, I know you are doing this for my own good, but your last wish is a shackle to your son. I can't breathe day and night, but I can't break it. Even if I am in so much pain that I am about to die, I can only loosen it during the day. I can't smash it because this is your last wish, your last wish——"

"..."

Zhao Taiping was breathing heavily, and the little girl was speechless.

She pricked up her ears and listened for a while before she said with a bitter face, "Uncle Zhao, your mother said that you have grown too independent and she can't control you anymore."

This time Zhao Taiping didn't say a word, but just knelt silently in front of his mother's tombstone.

"Last wish, your mother has taken it back. She wants you to leave quickly."

Zhao Taiping did not move. He knelt from morning to night.

"Be a good hero"

Suddenly, a gentle and helpless voice came to his ears. Zhao Taiping turned his head in surprise, only to find that the little girl had already fallen asleep with her clothes on and her head resting on the bundle.

Chapter 321 Favor Debt

"Miss Tangtang, wake up quickly. You can't just sleep outside like this, or you'll catch a cold."

The little girl was awakened by Zhao Taiping in a daze. She got up from the ground yawning and suddenly found a burly man in front of her.

Looking closely, it was Zhao Taiping!

Seeing Tangtang's curious expression, Zhao Taiping performed his bone-shrinking skills on the spot.

There was a crackling sound of bones dislocating, and he shrank a circle, returning to his thin appearance.

"Amazing--"

Tangtang was amazed and couldn't help asking, "But this will hurt, right?"

“Once you get used to it, you won’t feel anything.”

Zhao Taiping shrugged: "It's late at night, I'll take you back to the inn to rest."

"Okay! Then we'll come back tomorrow."

"No need, my mother told me to be a good hero."

Zhao Taiping showed a bright smile on his face, and the little girl was also in a good mood due to his influence.

After sending Tangtang back to the inn, Zhao Taiping walked quickly towards his home.

When he was almost home, he saw a figure wandering around his door from afar, looking very anxious.

"Young Master Lie"

Without showing any surprise, Zhao Taiping greeted the Lieshenhu indifferently.

"Brother Zhao, you're finally back!"

In the moonlight, Lieshenhu looked at Zhao Taiping for a moment, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

He was just a skinny errand boy, and I could kill him with just two or three punches.

Is he really the masked maniac who single-handedly defeated many gangs?

"Is Tan Chong inside?" Zhao Taiping pointed at the wooden box in Lieshenhu's hand and asked casually.

Ok?

As soon as these words were spoken, Lieshenhu looked towards Zhao Taiping with a little more caution.
