After throwing dozens of bandits to Xiao Qi and a dozen soldiers, Su Hao drove the carriage into the county. Due to the uprising of the White Lotus Sect, the people in the entire county suffered heavy casualties. Even though half a year had passed, the streets still seemed empty.

Yes, although the shops on the street are open for business, business is very bleak.

After finding an inn to stay, Su Hao immediately found a restaurant and started eating and drinking. For martial arts practitioners, training is an extremely physically demanding thing, and everyone is a big eater.

In the restaurant, Su Hao opened his arms to eat. A plate of chicken was just served on the table. After a few chopsticks, it hit the bottom. There was already a stack of plates on the table beside him. The diners on the side looked at Su Hao's stomach as if

It's like a bottomless pit, I'm dumbfounded.

"Sir, the store has run out of ingredients."

At this time, the owner of the restaurant came over with a plate of duck meat.

"Forget it if it's gone."

Hearing this, Su Hao waved his hand. He had eaten for so long. Although his appetite was not small, it was not comparable to those of the Henglian martial artists from the general family. It was said that some powerful Henglian martial artists could even eat one meal.

Drop a cow.

After hearing Su Hao's words, the restaurant owner quickly took out the silver weighing instrument he carried with him and put the silver that Su Hao had given him before on the scale.

"Sir, the food you eat costs four taels and seven cents of silver. The silver you gave me before was six taels and eight cents. I should give you two taels and one cent of silver here."

After he finished speaking, he took out a pair of small scissors and cut off a corner of the silver. After weighing it, he found that it was less than two taels, so he cut off another small corner.

Su Hao just watched quietly, this is a normal transaction among the people. Those in TV dramas who just throw away a piece of silver so that people don't have to look for it are all nonsense. If you dare to throw it away, other shop owners still can't believe it.

.

It is not a new thing for silver to be mixed with lead or other things. It is usually weighed, then cut open for identification, and the change is finally given. If you just throw in a piece of silver without cutting it, you will not know whether the silver is mixed with anything.

After returning to the inn, Su Hao asked the waiter to boil a bucket of hot water, dissolve half a box of tiger bone ointment, then got into the bathtub and started the Pure Yang Wuji Kung Fu.

As the exercise was performed over and over again, Su Hao clearly felt that after the internal energy had traveled through the twelve meridians, the internal energy entering the Dantian was only one-third of what it had been when it had traveled through the three Yang meridians before, and had shrunk by two-thirds.

, but Su Hao knew that this was not a decrease, but a concentration. Although the internal force seemed to be less, the power was actually much greater.

Outside the Zhending Mansion, Jingchen, a kind-hearted little nun, faced off against Li Biao, who was also at the top of the second-rate rankings. She was able to defeat Li Biao without using any assassins because Jingchen practiced top-notch internal skills and mental methods.

crushed the opponent.

………

The next day, Su Hao, who had rested for a day, drove the carriage again and embarked on a fishing trip feeling refreshed.

After passing the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, we entered Jining Prefecture, where the number of people instantly increased. Unlike Juye County, Jining Prefecture was not greatly affected by the White Lotus Rebellion. In addition, Jining Prefecture is a central place on the canal.

Over time, Jining Prefecture has already returned to its former prosperity.

Su Hao slowly drove the carriage towards Jining City. At this time, the sound of horse hoofbeats sounded from behind.

One horse after another galloped past, kicking up a cloud of dust. Seeing this, Su Hao tightened the reins in his hands and the carriage slowly stopped.

"Get out of here! Don't block my way!"

At this time, there was an angry shout and an explosion!

Su Hao turned his head and looked around, but what came in front of him was the shadow of a whip. After practicing Pure Yang Wuji Kung Fu for half a year, Su Hao was only one step away from a third-rate martial artist. His reaction speed was naturally not slow. He stretched out his hand and hit his face with the whip.

Hold the whip tightly before going up, and then pull hard!

"ah!"

The whip wielder did not expect this situation. Before he could react, he was pulled off his horse with both men and whip, and was thrown to the ground. He rolled several times before stopping, and lay motionless on the ground.

"Don't hurt my young master!"

At this time, another galloping horse came, and a middle-aged man in a smart outfit shouted low, and grabbed Su Hao with his eagle claws.

Seeing this, Su Hao had an idea and the natal paper man rushed out of the carriage. The middle-aged man's eagle claws quickly grabbed the natal paper man.

puff!

The paper knife flashed by!

The middle-aged man's body and head were separated in an instant, and even his hands were cut off!

At this time, Su Hao had time to look at the person he had pulled off his horse before. He was a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a silk and satin Confucian robe. He was handsome and fair-skinned. He was obviously a pampered person.

"Brother, run away, this is a member of the Kong family."

At this time, a middle-aged man passing by said something and then left in a hurry.

Someone from the Kong family?

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Su Hao couldn't help but be startled, and then thought about it, this is Jining Prefecture, not far from Qufu, and already within the sphere of influence of the Kong family. It is normal for children of the Kong family to appear here.

Already.

However, although he already knew the identity of the other party, Su Hao didn't pay too much attention to it. The Ming Dynasty was not like Meng Yuan and Man Qing. Meng Yuan and Man Qing were from different races, so they naturally had to treat the Kong family well and use this traitorous family as a sign.

But the Ming Dynasty did not. At the beginning of the founding of the country, Zhu Yuanzhang even had the idea of ​​abolishing the Confucian family. Unfortunately, after thousands of years of development, Confucianism has already become a behemoth. All the scholars in the world are Confucian students. Even if Zhu Yuanzhang has unparalleled prestige,

Relying on scholars to maintain the rule of the old Zhu family, in the end they could only hold their noses and recognize the Kong family.

However, the Confucian family has been suppressed a lot. Now the official school of the Ming Dynasty is Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism. The prestige of the Cheng family and the Zhu family is not much worse than that of the Confucian family. Moreover, Yangming's philosophy of mind is also on the rise. The Confucian family

Its prestige only radiates to the surrounding areas of Qufu.

Although he and his family of Jin Yiwei cannot offend the Kong family, if the Kong family offends him, he can definitely slap him back. The only people the Kong family can influence are the civil servants around Qufu. He and his Jin Yiwei are not subject to the control of the civil servants.

.

As for making a fuss in court over a family member who hurt someone by riding a horse, he believed that Mr. Yan Shenggong of the Kong family would not do such a stupid thing as long as his mind was clear.

You must know that the Jin Yiwei are the emperor's pro-soldiers. It is better for the children of the Kong family to make trouble first. If they cause trouble in the court, it is the Kong family themselves who are embarrassed. After all, no matter how bad the Jin Yiwei is, they are pro-soldiers. All the officials in the court would not dare to fight against the emperor for the sake of a Kong family.

In the final analysis, beating a dog depends on the owner. The owner of Jinyiwei is the emperor, so there is no big conflict of interest. Only when officials go crazy would they slap the emperor in the face.

Su Hao was still thinking nonsense. At this time, the young man's other companions also noticed something was wrong and called their friends and rushed back.

When they saw the young man lying on the ground whose life and death were unknown and the middle-aged man whose body and head were separated beside him, everyone was stunned on the spot.
