Chapter 60: Payment for Seven Star Cliff
Ran Dengjia was about to go out to look for Jiang Wan, but saw her hurried back with a wine jar in one hand and a few paper bags in the other.
"Why have you been out for so long? I'm scared to death." Ran Dengjia went up to take it. Only when he saw Jiang Wan's happy smile did he dare to say this.
Jiang Wan smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will never do stupid things again. Brother Gu is my savior. He has helped me time and time again. I have to carefully choose to be my savior!"
"Should, should." Ran Dengjia prepared the bowls and chopsticks, and Jiang Wan opened the paper bag, filled it with some cooked meat and cold vegetables, and poured them into the plates.
The three of them sat down, and Jiang Wan filled everyone's bowls with wine. She picked up the wine bowl and paid tribute to Gu Shengchao: "Brother Gu is so brave and heroic. He first avenged the little girl's murder of her father, and today he saved my life."
"Although I, Jiang Wan, have a limited capacity for drinking, I respect my elder brother Gu."
The ancient sage said politely: "I don't dare, I don't dare. I had help from experts that day. It's not my fault. Miss Jiang is serious. Those things are in the past and don't need to be mentioned again. As long as you live happily now, it's better than anything else."
."
Ran Dengjia understood what Gu Shengchao meant, and he also picked up the wine bowl and said: "Yes, yes, we can leave the green hills without worrying about firewood. We are still young. As long as there is hope for the future, life will get better day by day.
"
Jiang Wan blushed and said: "Jiang Wan appreciates the kindness of the two eldest brothers. When I sank into the river today, I had a very clear moment. I wanted to float up but I couldn't do anything. After experiencing life and death, I felt a lot more transcendent. Now I have eldest brother Gu to testify.
, I, Jiang Wan, promise that from now on, I will listen to Brother Ran and live a good life without any random thoughts. My father is able to create a career from scratch. Although I, a little girl, cannot compare, but as long as I work hard, I believe that he will succeed.
It will be better than now."
She stood up, picked up the wine bowl, and drank it all in one gulp.
Gu Shengchao and Ran Dengjia looked at each other and smiled in relief. They touched the wine bowls and drank them all.
Jiang Wan poured the wine. Her cheeks were flushed from the alcohol, and she looked even more shy and charming. Ran Dengjia stared at her infatuatedly. Jiang Wan laughed at him: "Brother Gu is still here. He is still like a child at such an old age. I want to
You promise never to do stupid things again, let's live a good life and earn back bit by bit what we lost before."
Ran Dengjia was elated after hearing this, and was very happy for Jiang Wan's change. He respected the ancient sage Chao and said: "Little brother is really our benefactor. Come on, I will do it first as a token of respect."
The three of them talked and laughed over the wine. When Ran Dengjia saw that Jiang Wan finally expressed his feelings, he was overjoyed and drank too much. He was the first to get drunk. Gu Shengchao helped him to rest on the bed.
"Mei Wan, sister Wan, I, Ran Dengjia, promise you that we will live a good life. As long as we work hard, tomorrow will be better than today." Ran Dengjia said the truth in a hazy voice.
"Okay, okay, I heard everything." Jiang Wan blushed and covered him with the quilt.
The sky cleared and the scorching sun made clothes dry quickly. Gu Shengchao's clothes were already dry when he went upstairs. He put on his own clothes, packed his things and went downstairs to say goodbye to Jiang Wan.
"My benefactor, please go slowly. Brother Ran is drunk and it won't be convenient for me to see my benefactor off." Jiang Wanying saluted.
"Farewell." Gu Shengchao handed over and left. He originally planned to take a boat back to the Dawu Dynasty. After hearing Jiang Wan's experience, he became interested in the chamber of commerce and inquired about it along the way.
The Chamber of Commerce is located in the center of the town. On both sides of the courtyard entrance are written "Every day makes money" and on the other side "Harmony brings wealth". There was no one guarding it. Gu Shengchao walked in casually. Several carriages were parked in the yard.
Everyone was loading and unloading goods, and everyone was busy in an orderly manner.
"Just tell us when we can get the payment for our goods." came a woman's voice, which sounded like she was angry.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, a girl has quite a bad temper. If you say a few words to soften our discussions, I won't give in to your attitude. What can you do to me?" another woman's voice said.
came.
Gu Shengchao recognized the location of the sound and walked over. In a room not far away, two women were standing and arguing with a woman sitting on a chair. Gu Shengchao was surprised that he actually knew the two women standing.
It was Amiao and Amei, disciples of Qixingya.
That day when he was sending Ding Ying up the mountain, it was these two people who stopped them. At that time, the Ancient Sage's Chao Dantian was damaged and he had no internal strength at all, so he was forced by the two people to fall down the cliff in a panic. This was how he had his subsequent adventure.
Amiao said angrily: "Your chamber of commerce will pay a deposit and we from Qixingya will deliver the tea non-stop. We agreed to pay cash on delivery. It's been two months and you haven't given me a penny. It's because you breached the contract first, which makes sense."
"What, you're not convinced?" The woman sitting on the chair crossed her legs on the low table in front of her and swayed her feet leisurely, with a mocking look on her face. The woman was young, only in her early twenties, and she had delicate features and beautiful eyes.
Treacherous, Ran Dengjia said that this chamber of commerce was opened by the family of a master in Yunqi Palace of Xileng State, and it should be this woman.
Hearing the sound, several burly men in the yard hurried over and stood guard outside the door, ready to go.
"You." Amei stepped forward angrily and wanted to question. Seeing the strong men at the door, they were timid and stepped back.
The woman picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and said disdainfully: "Do you want to take action? You are still young and don't know who the backers of our chamber of commerce are. Does Yunqigong know? If you have the ability, go to them and ask for money. You little ones
What is Qixing Cliff?"
Amiao and Amei were filled with indignation after hearing this, and even Gu Shengchao, who was not far outside, was also furious. After all, Ding Ying and her master Fang Xingdan were from Qixing Cliff. Even if their internal disputes were violent, it was just a family scandal. Outsiders must not belittle Qixing.
Cliff.
Gu Shengchao wanted to rush in and teach that ignorant woman a lesson, but he did not want Amiao and Amei to recognize him. When he touched his pockets, he found that there were all the fire sickles, fire folds and other items that he always kept, including those in the capital of the Great Wu Dynasty and Liu Ximei.
The purchased fake beard is also packaged together.
He was overjoyed. He walked to a deserted place and put on his fake beard. The full beard suddenly covered half of his face. If you didn't look carefully, you would never be able to tell who it was. After putting it away, he returned to the man standing at the door not far from the window.
Several strong men glanced at him but didn't take him seriously.
The woman shook the teacup between her fingers and said quietly: "Let's do this. You two kneel down and kowtow to me a few times to apologize. Maybe I can pay you some money to go back and do business. How about that?" The woman said playfully.
Smiling, he stared at the two of them teasingly like a cat and mouse.
"It's too much to bully someone." Amiao couldn't hold it back and waved her palm to attack.
The strong man closest to Amiao at the door made a move like lightning. Before Amiao could take a few steps, he had already grabbed her wrist and threw her to the ground. Seeing that Amiao was about to fall, she gently held her up on the ground with her palms.
She flipped around in mid-air and landed firmly on the ground. As soon as she stood up, the remaining strong men attacked her. It was difficult for a good man to defeat her, let alone a weak woman.
Amiao stepped forward to help, but neither of them drew their swords for fear of killing someone, but their kindness did not mean that the other party was also kind. As soon as Amiao kicked out, a strong man hugged her leg tightly, and she waved
He slashed the opponent's neck with his palm, and another strong man picked her up from the waist. The two of them worked together to throw Ah Miao aside. Just as Ah Miao was about to get up, someone stepped on her face, making her unable to move.
"Stop." Amei wanted to rescue Ah Miao, but one of her hands was grabbed by someone and she still struggled to break free. However, her strength was too weak, and she easily let the other person twist and control her.
The woman stood up leisurely and applauded: "Okay, you two have the backbone, I admire you. Things that could be solved with a few kowtows just now seem to be impossible now. We are all women, why should women embarrass women? I originally
I want to spare you two, but you are the one who slapped me in the face, so don’t blame me for being rude."
"What do you want?" Amei was a little scared. She wanted to break free but was not as strong as the strong man behind her.
The woman walked over and pinched Amei's pink cheeks, and said slyly: "They are thin-skinned and tender, and they are pretty good-looking. The men under my command are all strong and strong, but they don't have wives. Otherwise, tonight
Are you wronged to accompany them?"
"No." Amei was scared and tears fell down.
"It's too late now that I'm afraid." The woman waved her hand easily, "Pull both of them down, and I'll reward you tonight."
"Thank you so much, shopkeeper." Several strong men were overjoyed and picked up Amiao and Amei respectively before leaving.
They didn't notice that there was someone blocking the doorway.
"Looking for death, get out of the way." A strong man stepped forward angrily, stretching out his hand to push away Gu Shengchao who was blocking the door. The strong man's hand was about to touch Gu Shengchao's left shoulder, and Gu Shengchao stretched out his right hand to grab him accurately.
With a slight flick of his wrist.
"Ah!" The strong man screamed, and then he saw that his wrist was broken and hanging limply.
The remaining people didn't know that the danger was right in front of them, so they still surrounded them with smiles, laughing at their companions' carelessness. One of them rushed forward with Amei in his arms, thinking that Gu Shengchao was a harmless persimmon.
Gu Shengchao couldn't suppress the anger in his heart for a long time. He struck without mercy. Those who rushed towards him were either broken arms or legs. The guy holding Amei in his arms was the worst. Not only did Gu Shengchao break his legs, but Gu Shengchao also tore his legs.
His arms were broken, and he was rolling on the ground in pain and screaming.
When the female shopkeeper of the Chamber of Commerce saw Gu Shengchao's ferocity, she took a few steps back in horror and said uneasily: "You, don't mess around. My husband is the instructor of Yunqigong. If you offend Yunqigong, you can't eat and walk around."
."
"Really?" Ancient Sage Chao rolled up his sleeves and approached step by step, nonchalantly saying: "I want to see what Yunqigong is all about."
The female shopkeeper of the Chamber of Commerce saw Gu Shengchao approaching, and his heavy breath had already sprayed on her face. She crossed her arms and turned her face away in fear: "No, don't do this."
