White steam was rising from the small red clay stove.
After the water boiled, Aaron picked up the kettle and made himself a cup of tea.
At this time, he finally no longer needed to drink broken tea, but instead drank good tea with neat leaves.
There was a cold wind blowing outside the window, and there was some light snow.
He held the teacup, blew the hot air from it, and watched the tea leaves slowly unfolding in the hot water. His eyes were slightly distracted and he looked at the attribute panel:
[Name: Fang Yu (Aaron)]
[Talent: Immortality]
【Age: 20】
[Realm: Ming Jin (entry level)]
[Martial Arts: Quicksand Palm (Dacheng), Black Sand Palm First Level (Beginner)]
"Unknowingly, it has been four years since I came to this world...four years, how many four years are there in life?"
After lamenting that youth is fleeting, Aaron thought about the progress of his practice...
"The black sand palm combined with medicinal sand can be used to practice quickly, but it is too expensive... If you use it every day, it will cost sixty taels of silver a month... However, a martial artist who enters Jin can be regarded as a figure wherever he goes, and he can join a gang.
If you can be promoted to a small boss immediately, or you can go to a nursing home or escort someone away, there are still plenty of ways to make money."
It's just that this kind of path is often accompanied by trouble. Aaron didn't want to cause trouble, so he stopped going.
He now earns more than a dozen taels of silver a month from fishing, practices Qigong with medicinal sand for five days a month, and then relies on self-study for the rest of the time, which is not bad.
While maintaining self-discipline, Aaron did not become a practicing fanatic, but tried his best to find some fun in his life.
Making tea and drinking tea is just one of them.
Two days ago, he specially invited his brothers to go to the Goulan Group to build a group. He met the oiran, the red fisherman girl, who was indeed very beautiful and was good at singing and dancing.
What's more important is that after the news of becoming an official disciple of Qingshan Martial Arts School spread, 'Master Tiger' came to apologize once, with a very low posture, cowardly words, and a funny look on his sinister face when he put on a flattering posture.
, which makes Aaron think back now with a smile on his lips.
However, although he openly accepted Master Hu's apology, he did not give up his plan to kill the other party.
Reaching a settlement is just to make it easier to clear the suspicion in the future...
"While I'm not busy in the winter, I've already figured out that dead tiger's habits, home, and route of action... I'll take action as soon as I find an opportunity!"
Dang Dang!
"Everyone, come out!"
Dang Dang!
A sound of gongs came from outside, which made Aaron frown, knowing that something big had happened.
The urgent gong reminded him of the tragic situation of old Chutou and his son.
Aaron took a deep breath, walked out of the cabin, and walked along the trestle to the entrance of the village.
Among the crowd, Xiao Chu was also there, staring intently at a man kneeling on the ground being whipped.
The man was bearded and tall, but he was whipped until he screamed repeatedly. He turned out to be 'Master Tiger'!
'Why did you fall down first before I even exerted any force?'
Aaron was a little stunned for a moment.
The ones who whipped Mr. Hu were also from the Goldfish Gang.
This made the fishermen even more stunned.
At this time, a fair and fat man with a rich face, like a member of a wealthy family, stood up, clasped his fists and saluted in all directions: "Fellow fellow villagers, I am 'Wang Hua', you guys can also call me 'Fat Wang'... I am here today.
As ordered by the gang leader, I am here to announce two things."
"First, this 'Zhang Heihu' neglected his duties, cheated and cheated... He even allowed fishermen to secretly go to the county to sell 'red blood carps'. I am hereby expelling this Mermaid City manager and replacing him temporarily. In addition... I am whipping him..."
Thirty years of punishment to serve as a warning to others!"
"Okay!" The fishermen have been suffering from "Master Tiger" for a long time. In the past, they dared not speak out in anger, but now they saw that he had turned into a dead tiger, and they couldn't help but cheer.
On the other hand, Aaron curled his lips and said, "You are too happy that the Goldfish Gang has not fallen down yet... Huh? Is there anyone who can actually catch a red-blooded carp? And secretly sell it for money? I don't even dare, this is so audacious..."
...County seat? Hmm...that's quite an idea!'
At this time, Fatty Wang continued: "The second thing... is to reiterate the gang rules! Anyone who dares to violate it will be killed!"
He clapped his hands, and immediately there was a goldfish helping everyone carry a bamboo pole and show everyone a head on it.
"ah!"
Children had their eyes covered by adults, and women screamed.
Several old fishermen even lost their voices: "Isn't this...Old Yutou?"
"Um?!"
Aaron looked up. His eyesight was amazing. He could clearly see Lao Yu's gray hair, blood-stained face, and unique rosacea...
He closed his eyes, and the scene of the other party smoking a dry cigarette seemed to come to his mind vividly before his eyes.
'You old boy... aren't you the best at saving your life? You were trying to persuade me before... I didn't expect you, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, to do the same thing?'
…
"How could it be Old Yutou? He is a sensible person!"
"Hey... because I understand life, I know that in life, you have to give it a try when you encounter an opportunity! If you don't give it a try, you will always be a subordinate!"
"That's a red-blooded carp, and it's a private sale! You can get at least a hundred taels! If you have such a large sum of money, you can abandon the ship and go to the countryside to buy a few acres of land, marry a wife, and live a peaceful life.
Got it!"
…
Listening to the discussions of the people around him, Aaron also recalled it.
Although Lao Yutou is timid and afraid of getting into trouble, he does often lament that life is hard. He didn't take risks before, maybe because the benefits were not big enough!
If he succeeded this time, he would probably abandon his family and career and leave his hometown.
As long as they leave Taize Mansion, who knows who the Goldfish Gang will be?
It's a pity... I lost in the end, so badly that I lost my life!
…
After Fatty Wang left with the Goldfish Gang, Aaron came to the bamboo pole, uncorked the wine gourd, and poured the rice wine on the ground.
When it comes to friends, you still have to come and give them away.
The fishermen walked away sighing, and some even dared not come to pay homage to Lao Yutou for fear of offending the Goldfish Gang!
No!
There are still people!
Xiao Chu, who was dressed in rags, walked over and looked at Lao Yu's head on the bamboo pole, his eyes seemed to burst into flames: "Zhang Heihu has turned into a dead tiger... Now he can no longer be majestic, nor can he be protected by his men.
, will you help me?”
This was the first time he talked to Aaron after the accident.
"No help!"
Aaron would not give the truth and directly refused.
"Coward! Your martial arts training is of no use!"
Xiao Chu looked at Lao Yutou's head and seemed to recall his father. He cried loudly three times before saying fiercely: "Forget it if you don't help... I'll do it myself!"
Looking at Xiao Chu's leaving figure, Aaron narrowed his eyes slightly.
'This boy... his previous honesty has disappeared... As expected, hatred can change a person the most.'
