As the senior brother of the Hanging Knife Sect, Jia Ruan has more comprehensive abilities than his junior brothers and must have more thoughts. After his master passed away more than ten years ago, he supported the Hanging Knife Sect.

Two years ago, Jingkou County was broken by rebels, and the knife gate was looted. He and his junior brothers hid in the cellar and did not dare to come out. At that time, everyone felt humiliated, and only he said over and over again that survival is more important than anything else.

When Master was there, his life was pretty good, but that had nothing to do with Master, mainly because the years were quite decent at that time.

The master is gone and the age is getting worse. First, there is a drought for two consecutive years. Even if God can survive, it will be a matter of God’s eyes open, and then the rebels will be rampant. It may be that God really loves them.

In the words of my junior brother Zhen Gen, I used to think that my master was idle and did nothing, but now I know that he has such a great influence on the world. My master is gone, and he has a severe drought and a rebel.

The senior brothers actually felt that the senior brother was a little cowardly. For example, when the rebels entered the city, the hundreds of men of the Hanging Knife Sect, all of them had martial arts skills. If they fought to the death, they could not protect the Hanging Knife Sect?

Those rebels are also bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. If you, a hundred and ten big men, will not dare to fight to the death, and they will also be afraid of death.

But the elder brother means that money and other things are external things. Not to mention money, even the knife hanging at the door is external things. Just live, just live, just live, and no one can be left behind.

Jia Ruan looked at Li Chi who was talking, and heard that he could take that person with one move as qualified, so he smiled and said, "It turns out that you are here to challenge the Hang Knife Gate."

The junior brothers immediately started to make trouble. Their life was hard, and the knife gate was actually just holding on. How could they be considered a sect? But even though they lived like this, they didn't part, which only means one thing.

They really care about the knife door.

"Senior Brother, it seems they are playing games."

Junior brother Zhen Gen took off his apron and went forward and said, "I'll try it."

The eldest brother stepped a step and stopped the junior brother, shook his head, and he clasped his fists at Li Chi and said, "If you are friends in the world who want to come and have a chance to compete, I think it's okay. You have also seen the appearance of the Hangdao Sect now. We are no longer a martial arts sect. Please come back, and I'm not far away to send it."

Li Chi said: "You misunderstood. I really came to ask you to do things."

The eldest brother shook his head: "We can earn some hard money with our strength, just be able to live, and don't want to be rich and noble."

His junior brothers looked at each other, and some thought that the eldest brother was coming again... Last year, the county magistrate sent someone to come and said that Prince Yu was recruiting soldiers and horses. If they were willing to go, he could write a recommendation, and the eldest brother politely declined.

The county magistrate came to the door in person and said, "Look at the life you live now, a group of men who stand up and down, sewing and spinning, and living by working hard for people to work hard. Are you worthy of your ability?"

The county magistrate also said that a man must make achievements. He went to Prince Yu to kill the enemy on the battlefield and made achievements. He could not say that anyone would be a marquis of thousands of households in the future, and would be honored by his ancestors and be remembered forever.

The eldest brother still refused. The junior brothers advised him that he wanted to try it, but he said that he was the eldest brother and he had the final say. If anyone goes, he will no longer be a disciple of the Hangdao Sect.

What else did Li Chi want to say? The eldest brother clasped his fists and said, "Young Master, I can see that you are not like business people. We are ordinary people and have no real skills. What is going on in the world has nothing to do with us, so there is no need to say anything more, we won't go."

The junior brother Zhen Gen pulled the senior brother's pants. The senior brother looked back at him and shook his head and said, "We are pretty good now."

"Senior Brother!"

A man looked at him and said, "Where are our lives now? I don't know if you remember it. Last year, my junior brother wanted to eat meat and was so greedy that we cried. We stood by and looked at him, feeling incompetent."

"Look at the clothes on my junior brother's body, we wear them all. We will make up the seams and patch them up again. If we have been studying for so many years, we can't eat meat based on our ability, what's the use of our skills?"

The eldest brother said, "I am the eldest brother, I have the final say. I said no one can go, so no one can go."

For some reason, at this moment, Li Chi thought of his master when he looked at this senior brother who seemed cowardly, stubborn and not very likable.

At that moment, the figures of the senior brother and the master in front of him slowly overlapped together.

The junior brothers may just think that the eldest brother is cowardly, afraid of trouble and death.

But they didn't understand how much responsibility the three words "The Grand Senior Brother" contains. He is the Grand Senior Brother. He is the Grand Senior Brother. He is both a father and a mother. He can say that he is timid and afraid of things, or that he is a coward, he is the Grand Senior Brother.

Li Chi was silent for a moment, feeling that he shouldn't have lie.

He looked at Tang Pidian. Tang Pidian should have understood Li Chi's eyes at this moment, so he nodded.

Li Chi slowly let out a breath, walked to the steps on one side to sit down, and sat down with the door. Because his injuries had not healed yet, he forced the iron arch to recur when he was in Jizhou before, so his injuries seemed calm and gentle, but he could hold on.

After standing for a long time, his injuries will hurt like something is about to bulge.

"I'm sorry, everyone."

Li Chi sat down and slowly breathed out a breath, he was a little sad now.

He saw the young junior brother's hand still holding the senior brother's pants. When the other senior brothers stood up and said that he was the senior brother, his eyes were asking for help when he looked at the other senior brothers, as if he was saying, "Don't talk about senior brothers."

"What I said before is not a lie, because I do have a medicinal material business, and I really need many people with martial arts to help me keep these businesses."

He looked up at his senior brother Jia Ruan and said, "I will tell you the truth now. I am from the Green Eyebrow Army of Yanshan Camp. Your senior brother is right. If you follow me, you may not be fighting within two or three years and will live a comfortable life for a while, but it will be difficult to save it in two or three years."

He looked at the brothers again, smiled and said, "You are afraid of being poor, you feel tired of living, and you feel guilty and sad. I understand all these, because I have experienced them all. You see, I am not old, but I may have experienced more than each of you."

"Do you think the conditions I just issued were very good? Everyone pays 2 taels of silver every month, and they are just doing a errand for care. It's pretty good..."

He paused for a moment and said with a smile: "When I first arrived in Jizhou, he met someone. He didn't look like a good person at that time... He told me that people cannot be used to being given alms by others. Once they get used to it, they become slaves."

He looked at the people and said, "I will give you two taels of silver every month, forty-eight taels of silver every year. Two years later, you will be used to being my subordinates. When I ask you to fight to the death two years later, you will feel that it is inappropriate not to fight to the death, or you will be used to being obedient and will not even think about these things. You will do whatever I ask you to do."

"You won't think about it anymore. Forty-eight taels of silver will buy your life. Is it worth it?"

Li Chi slowly let out a breath, looked at the senior brother Jia Ruan and said, "

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

You are right... If I were you, I would do this, because forty-eight taels of silver are not just about buying life money, but also about buying dignity money."

Li Chi looked at Tang Pidian again, and Tang Pidian smiled and said, "Let's go."

Li Chi nodded, Yu Jiuling went over to help Li Chi up. When Li Chi walked past the junior brother Zhen Gen, he raised his hand and rubbed his head, and said with a smile: "If you get older in the future, you will understand how happy it is to have such a senior brother."

Zhen Gen was stunned for a moment, and he felt offended.

Because it seems that Li Chi is about the same age as him.

Li Chi said to his senior brother Jia Ruan: "If you bend over once, you can get benefits, people will get used to bending over. Over time, their spine will be bent all the time. This is what the guy who didn't look like a good person told me when I first arrived in Jizhou."

Senior brother Jia Ruan suddenly asked: "Then are you bent down now?"

Li Chi nodded and said, "Sometimes you will bend over, but it is not to outsiders, but to your own brothers. When you can bend over and explain and speak well, don't always feel that you are embarrassed to bend over. Those are brothers, not outsiders."

Yu Jiuling smiled, and his smile was particularly proud.

When they walked out, the senior brother suddenly said, "Yanshan Camp Green Eyebrow Heavenly King Yu Chaozong led his army to resist foreign enemies and defended the border. We brothers admired the things he did, but from what you just said, you know the pain in my heart, I can't..."

Li Chi didn't look back, raised his hand and shook it, signaling that he didn't need to say anything else, and also signaling goodbye.

Shortly after Li Chi and the others left, the junior brother Zhen Gen pulled the senior brother's pants again, and he asked, "These people don't look like bad people."

The eldest brother nodded: "The bad guy can't say those words."

He slapped the junior brother in the hand: "How old is you still holding someone else's clothes! What future can you do in the future? You are already old, can you mature?!"

The junior brother said, letting go quickly.

He took a few steps back and looked back at the other senior brothers, but saw the senior brothers coming over and they surrounded the senior brothers.

Then many people reached out to grab the senior brother's pants, and a group of people grabbed the senior brother's pants and shouted in a coquettish manner... Senior brother, Senior brother, Senior brother, Senior brother, you don't want to do this. You scared me so much.

Then a group of people suddenly took off the senior brother's pants, and then the group turned around and ran away.

They scattered, and the elder brother sat on the ground and looked at it. The group of bastards left themselves with one sock. There were two holes in the socks, one hole that exposed four toes including the big toes, and then a stubborn line that separated the other hole and exposed the little toes in the other hole.

"I am the eldest brother, are you bullied?"

He shouted.

The junior brother standing aside tried to get closer, then bent down and took off his socks, swung them up and ran away.

The senior brother sighed, "You bastards, at least cover me with something. Don't you feel inferior?"

At this moment, the junior brother who ran back to the room came out with a new dress. He smiled and looked proud, and everyone looked proud.

"We spin our own thread and make our own. Senior brother, you have been wearing your clothes for more than ten years."

The junior brothers stood there, smiling, heartless.
