Chapter 182: The Price

Chapter 182 Price

Deeper and deeper, ghosts are rampant. In a dense forest on the outskirts of Beijing, the sound of swords clashing is constant.

Three young men were besieged by a group of men in black. The attackers were fierce, and they were not weak at all in blocking. The two groups fought for an hour without a winner.

The man in black attacks with ruthlessness and cruelty, always resorting to deadly moves.

"Master, be careful!"

Seeing the hidden weapon coming, Mu Yan dodged and hid.

With a twist and a twist of the sword, it pierced straight into the heart of the man in the night. He pulled it out hard with his backhand, causing blood to fly. The man in black instantly fell to the ground and died.

Mu Yan didn't even look at it, turned around and rushed towards the other man in black.

It was not until all the men in black fell to the ground that Mu Yan, the master and the servant, collapsed without any strength.

"This is already the second wave this month. Master, your life is becoming more and more valuable now." Kan Er collapsed on the ground and gasped.

Mu Yan curled his lips coldly and glanced at the ground. Fifteen, fifteen dead soldiers were sent to kill him. He was becoming more and more willing to commit the crime.

"Master, please bandage it for you." Li Yi walked over.

"Master, are you injured?" Kan Er got up from the ground and came over.

"Small injury." Mu Yan said calmly, as if the injury was not his own.

"Let's take a look. There might be poison on that sword." Kan Er was panicking. Death warriors from the southwest know how to use poison.

The two of them pulled the cloth off Mu Yan's arm, and a long bloodstain was left, which was shocking.

Kan Er gritted his teeth with hatred, and stepped forward to refill each person's sword. Li Yi silently took out a porcelain bottle, pulled out the stopper, and poured the powder on the young master's wound. He looked up at the young master and saw that his brows were all furrowed.

Without frowning, I couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

Ever since he was young, the young master has never lived a carefree life. After going through mountains of swords and seas of blood, he still has to sigh that God didn't take him away even though he was napping.

Four years have passed, and the figure of the young master in front of me has become more and more upright, with a bright and shining light, and his eyes are as bottomless as cold stars, and he will never forget what he sees. Those who don’t want the young master to live want his life even more.

"Master, should we do something?" Li Yi asked while helping him treat his wounds.

"Tell the people in the southwest that I want Jun Mingzhang to have a pair of legs."

"Master, why not just..." Kan Er made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Mu Yan sneered at the corner of his mouth: "Death is too easy for him. I want him to be paralyzed on the bed for the rest of his life, watching helplessly as his concubine brothers eat what originally belonged to him step by step." He also tasted it and screamed.

It feels like the sky should not respond and the earth should not work.

"But Jun Mingzhang still has a son."

"His son is not yet mature enough."

"Only for Jun Mingzhang, isn't it too advantageous for her?"

The three of them knew clearly whether she was talking about her or him, and which one it was.

Mu Yan's voice was cold: "Step by step, next time it will be Mu Zhan's legs."

Let her watch carefully and use various methods, but she can't kill him. Isn't it wonderful to watch the forces around her being eradicated step by step by him, which dampens her fighting spirit?

Doesn't her son Mu Zhan look a lot like Mu Sheng? He has a fatherly attitude. Mu Sheng takes him with him wherever he goes. Then he will break Mu Zhan's legs to see how she can jump.

Li Yi sighed. The mountains in the southwest were high and the roads were far away. He was far away from the court. Like the local emperor, he had the opportunity to be a master, but no one could resist this temptation. I only felt sorry for the young master.

In the early morning of spring, frogs are chirping and insects are chirping, the faint smell of water is coming to your nose, and the air is full of fishy and sweet smell.

Huo Xi took a deep breath and slowly opened her eyes.

As soon as she took a few breaths, she noticed that her belly felt heavy. She lowered her eyes and gritted her teeth in anger. Damn it, she put her legs on her body again.

I spread Nian'er's legs and took a second look. I saw that this sleeping position was incredible. If it weren't for the hatch blocking it, I would probably have rolled into the water.

Huo Xi patted him lightly, and Huo Nian turned over and muttered, then snored again.

Damn boy. Seeing that he was sleeping soundly, Huo Xi covered him with a quilt and got up quietly.

When I walked to the stern of the boat, I saw that my parents had gotten up early. My mother was preparing breakfast and my father was rowing the boat. I looked around and saw that the boat was moving. I didn't know when my father had rowed the boat out of Taoye Ferry.

"Are you awake? Come and freshen up." Yang put down the things in her hands and scooped water for her to wash up.

After a while, Yang Fu also got up and asked, "Brother-in-law, you want to catch him in the morning?"

Huo Erhuai smiled: "Well, yesterday I went to Huibinlou to deliver fish. Shopkeeper Wen said that the demand is large these days and the price of fish is good. I just thought about catching more and selling it for more money. Now it's gone.

If it’s frozen, the fish will be easier to catch.”

After hearing this, Huo Xi moved the fishing gear out: "It's spring again. Scholars and students from Beijing and China gather together. There are big and small banquets. They all think about the fish leaping over the dragon's gate. It's a good idea. I guess I have to order every meal and the amount I want."

That’s more.”

"Is that so? No wonder. Dad just left the Huibin Building yesterday. Several restaurant owners stopped him and asked him to send fish to them. They said the price was negotiable."

"Then let's work harder these days. Why don't we call two families and hunt at night?" Yang suggested.

"Catching at night is too tiring." Huo Xi didn't want Yang and Huo Erhuai to work harder. The family was not short of money now.

"No matter how hard it is, your father and I can alternate and we can catch up on sleep during the day." Yang agreed.

Yang Fu glanced at Huo Xi and nodded: "Okay, I'll come with my brother-in-law as well."

"Aren't you going back to Qionghua Lane? Aren't you busy at the shop?" Yang was afraid that he would follow the fishermen, so she pushed the matter to Huo Xi.

"Manager Shen has returned to Beijing. I can stay with you on the boat these days."

That's how it was settled.

Huo Xi hadn't hunted in the morning for a long time. She ate breakfast in a hurry and helped Huo Erhuai lower the net.

The boat rowed to an open water area, stopped the boat, and put away the oar board. First, the net was lowered, then a place was selected, and the net was thrown into the water.

Not long after, when the throw net was pulled up, it was already too heavy to pull up. Yang Fu hurriedly stepped forward to help and pulled up together with Huo Erhuai.

Huo Xi didn't dare to throw or pull the net. When she threw it, she could throw herself into the water. The net couldn't pull it back, and the fish could drag her into the water together.

The moment the fish was pulled out of the water, the struggle before death, and the force, ordinary people cannot hold it back.

"Wow, the internet is full!" Huo Xi jumped for joy.

After the net was pulled onto the ship's deck, Huo Xi and Yang moved a small bench and began to sit and untie the fish.

If it's big, throw it into the water tank; if it's too small, throw it into the water. Hunters don't hunt by burning the forest, and the same goes for fishermen, who don't fish by drying up the lake.

We will not drain the water, nor will we catch all the big fish and small fish in the net. We must always leave a way out, so that we can survive in the long run.

The family was busy throwing nets, unpicking fish, and dividing shrimps and crabs, which woke Huo Nian up.

Rubbing his eyes with his little hands, he walked out of the cabin, pouting and looking at Huo Xi, Yang and the others.

Yang stood up and walked towards him. When she saw Huo Nian was about to pounce on her, she quickly took a step back and said, "My mother is smelly." She then knelt down to coax him: "Nian'er is awake, isn't she? Mom, get some water to wash Nian'er's face."

OK?"

Just as Huo Nian was about to nod, Huo Xi said, "Nian'er, when you grow up, you have to scoop out water and wash yourself."

Huo Nian pouted, glanced at her, and said to Yang, "Mom, Nian'er washes it yourself."

"You're so good, mother, wash your hands and go get breakfast for Nian'er."

Huo Nian nodded his head and stood on tiptoe to scoop water into the water basket.
