Wei He went upstairs. He was larger than the others and immediately attracted some attention.
Someone immediately recognized him as the protagonist of the previous Rushuifang gang eradication case.
It's just that because the incident in Rushui Fang happened a long time ago, only a few people recall it, and most people don't remember it.
Wei He didn't know many people, so he just greeted Wan Qingqing with fists in his arms, then Zhao Wanzhu, and finally exchanged greetings with the fat man Zhang Husheng who was treating the guests.
Then take your seat.
There were five tables set up on the third floor. He chose the one with the fewest people, sat down quietly, and stopped talking.
The people at the table with him were all taciturn or downcast-looking people.
One of them is surprisingly Sun Yi, who entered the inner courtyard at the same time as Wei He.
Sun Yi also recognized Wei He.
"Brother Wei, I heard that you have given up all the martial arts that you have practiced in the past?"
He was silent for a moment and asked aloud.
"Yes." Wei He nodded, his expression slightly heavy and helpless. "You have to give up to get something. If I want to go further, I have to take this step."
"What a decisive decision." Sun Yi praised, "Speaking of which, if I were as decisive as you, I wouldn't be in this situation now." He did not mention himself more, but changed his words.
"Brother Wei, have you ever regretted it? You switched from the Wu Shi Sect."
"I have no regrets. Tianyinmen Wanqingyuan has been very good to me. I like it here very much. The people here are very nice." Wei He replied.
"Brother Wei is so kind-hearted." Sun Yi was impressed with his eyes. He was able to maintain such a mentality even after practicing martial arts. It was indeed extraordinary.
"Brother Sun, I'm so impressed. It's just that after more experience, I understand some things naturally." Wei He sighed.
After the two of them picked up the conversation, they started chatting casually.
Sun Yi actually came from an outside sect just like him, but he didn't come from a more powerful sect like Wu Shi Sect, but from a small sect.
In the chaos, the small sect was destroyed. In desperation, he rushed to Taizhou and threw himself into the Tianyin Sect.
When the two chatted, Sun Yi seemed taciturn, but his experiences and various gossips were actually quite abundant in the chat.
And he seems to have unique information channels, and most of the things he talks about are recent events.
"Speaking of which, Zhou Xingsu and Chen Lin, who started training that year, have now broken through the first level and started to practice the second level of rain-turning and cloud-gathering skills. The speed is very fast. They are indeed geniuses with excellent understanding." Sun
Yi sighed, "I have practiced cultivation so far, but I am still at the first level, and I am as slow as a snail."
"Actually, the first level is not too difficult. It's mostly water grinding. The main step is to cover the whole body with blood in one fell swoop." Wei He talked about some techniques clearly. Although he relied on the Realm Breaking Pearl to break through, he didn't know the key points of the middle process.
, that is quite clear.
The Boundary Breaking Bead just completes the correct breakthrough process, then accelerates it, and quickly overcomes it. It is not a direct and blunt improvement.
At this time, he told some experiences, and Sun Yi was stunned for a moment.
"Is it possible that Brother Wei has already started practicing the second level?" he asked in surprise.
"Yes, I did ask Senior Sister to get the second-level secret book earlier." Wei He did not hide it, this was his original plan.
Because the Rain-Converting Cloud Gathering Technique requires layer upon layer of cultivation breakthroughs before you can obtain a new secret book.
In this way, his cultivation progress will be clearly understood by the head elder sister and the others, which is not conducive to hiding the Realm-breaking Pearl.
By the way, I’m using the Zhuishu app recently. [app] caches books for reading and reads aloud offline!
So he had another plan of his own.
Moreover, hiding his cultivation will do him no good. Only by showing his genius can he obtain more resource support.
"Brother Wei is really hiding his secrets!" Sun Yi praised, and his attitude toward Wei He changed again.
Be more cautious and lower your tone.
After the two had an in-depth conversation, Wei He learned that Sun Yi had also participated in many organizations and gangs outside the country. He had been around for many years and had many sources of information.
The conversation between the two people here gradually attracted several people at the other tables to join in.
The original atmosphere of this table gradually became lively.
Several people introduced themselves. Except for Wei and Sun Yi, the other three were actually old people who had been here for many years.
"Speaking of which, after this meal, I should pack my luggage and prepare to go home next month." One of them sighed, picked up the food and chewed it slowly.
This man's surname is Chen Minghuan. He has a beard, a short haircut, and a sallow complexion.
"I'm in the second half of the year, and it's time to leave. If I don't work hard, it will be all in vain." Another person said softly. This was a woman named Zhao Yuerou. She seemed to have a gentle temperament and unprepossessing appearance, but her eyes were very bright.
"There are still several people who are leaving this year. They say that they want to leave a share for newcomers. Only those who are determined can stay. But for those of us, if we leave, where can we go in the future?"
Another person named Jiang Xiaochuan had been hospitalized for four or five years and was still halfway to the time limit for leaving. But when he saw this scene, he felt uneasy.
"Except for our martial arts skills, we have no other abilities. What else can we do after we leave? Senior Brother Chen Huan, Senior Sister Zhao, what are your plans after you return?" He raised his head and asked.
Chen Huan also had confusion in his eyes. He picked up a glass of wine, drank only a small amount, and then put it down again.
"My family wants me to go back, but my eldest brother is at home, so what can I do if I go back? I'd better go back to my old job of selling rice."
Zhao Yuerou said softly: "Fortunately for me, I have already taken over the clothing store at home. Practicing martial arts is just my hobby. In addition to learning martial arts, I have to learn arithmetic and bookkeeping from the accountant when I go back every day."
"Senior Sister Zhao, what else do you have to worry about? It's only trouble for people like us who have no financial resources at all." Jiang Xiaochuan shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"So many senior brothers and sisters in the inner courtyard who have no hope for the future are saving their wealth at this time to prepare for the future.
Junior Brother Jiang, Junior Brother Sun, and Junior Brother Wei, you can actually slowly accumulate some fixed assets now so that you can get married, retire, and have a stable income in the future." Chen Huan suggested sincerely.
"Industry" Sun Yi has some enlightenment.
Indeed, at this stage, those in other courtyards who are promising will naturally sprint with all their strength.
Those who have no hope of getting into the business will naturally start to buy a home and make plans for the future.
"But we only know how to use fists and kicks, so how can we build a family?" Sun Yi sincerely asked for advice.
"There are many senior brothers and sisters in the same sect who have set up business in various places. Every once in a while, they will come back to the sect to recruit other sect members. This is a way to defect to others." Chen Huan explained.
"There are also good ways to work as a coach or a steward in a big family. The salary is very good." Zhao Yuerou said softly, "If you don't want to take a temporary job, there is another way to go, which is to join the army. Or go to teach boxing in a small place.
, setting up a boxing academy or martial arts gym is also a way out."
Several people discussed how to buy a retreat and property.
Wei He stood aside without saying a word, just listening. He only felt that their lives were too far away from his own.
If he hadn't had the Realm Breaking Pearl, he might have been like them, taking steps step by step, reaching the limit of his own understanding, and then starting to prepare for starting a family and retiring.
Then maybe it will be an ordinary journey, with birth, old age, illness and death, and towards the end.
He sat in his seat and watched the other four people's discussion becoming more and more lively.
On the other side, Senior Sister Zhao Wanzhu Zhao began to get close to the newcomer again, spoke softly, and began to attract people to Zizhuhui.
But this year, the people sitting next to her were not Wei He and the others, but several other newcomers with immature faces.
You don't need to think about it to know that Zizhu will definitely get a kickback during the meeting. Otherwise, she wouldn't work so hard.
Soon, the waiter brought the food and wine.
This time the treater was obviously not as generous as Zhou Xingsu before. However, after a few plates of ordinary exotic animal meat, they were gone soon.
Then there are the ordinary drinks and dishes.
No one cared about it, after all, it was good to have some wine.
Only halfway through eating, there were faint shouts and curses coming from downstairs.
"The fight is about to begin!" Someone exclaimed from downstairs.
Immediately afterwards, there was a sound of weapons clashing. The jingling sound was very clear and sweet.
A crowd of people in the inner courtyard of Wanqingyuan also watched the excitement, gathered in front of the window and looked down.
The streets were sparsely populated, and several fruit carts were overturned to the ground. Oranges and apples rolled all over the floor, and the vendors didn't know where to hide.
Passers-by around him also stayed away and did not dare to get close.
Two men, one fat and one thin, stood in the middle of the road, each holding a weapon, scolding and beating them.
One of them holds a knife and the other holds a stick.
One is flying nimbly, as light and nimble as a butterfly. The other is a stick with a heavy shadow, striking back and forth. It seems that it is almost unstoppable, but it can knock away the opponent's blade in time.
While the two were fighting, there were very few people who were confident in their strength. They were watching, pointing, and making comments.
Xiaoyue upstairs.
The inner court members also commented on each other, with relaxed expressions. It was all because these two people were just two second-bloods.
Two kinds of blood and one kind of blood can be seen everywhere in Xuanjing City. Taizhou is very martial and has many sects. The most important thing is warriors.
"It's a disciple of Sifanggun and a disciple of Duoyingdao. There are often frictions between the two sides." Sun Yi was also in front of the window and seemed to know the identities of the two people below.
"I heard that the Sifanggun was a senior fellow from Huguangyuan. After he came out, he created his own stick technique. After opening a martial arts school, it gradually grew.
As for the Shadow Saber, I heard that the shadow of Fushan Yuan is in it." Zhao Yuerou said calmly.
"The Huguang Academy and Fushan Academy have been fighting over each other, which is normal." Chen Huan was not surprised.
"By the way, Junior Brother Wei, I heard that you helped Rushuifang handle a case before, and it was against the White Snake Gang and the Xuanshui Gang, right?" Suddenly Chen Huan turned to look at Wei He.
"Yes." Wei He responded.
"I heard that Junior Brother Wei killed two powerful martial arts masters alone. I don't know if this is true or false?" Chen Huan asked curiously.
Wei He was silent for a moment.
"There is something hidden in it, and I'm not in a position to say it."
"Forget it's inconvenient, but Junior Brother Wei has to be careful. Xiao Yurong, the leader of the White Snake Gang, has a son and a daughter. The eldest daughter heard that she joined the Tianyin Sect three months ago and entered the outer courtyard. She is said to have very good qualifications.
.Also with good looks and figure, I’m afraid it’s going to be a problem.” Chen Huan kindly reminded me.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Chen, for reminding me." Wei He nodded, and then he showed a wry smile.
"It's just that those are two powerful martial arts masters, and I only have three health points. How can I beat them to death? There is actually something hidden in it."
"Well, that girl's name is Xiao You. Junior Brother Wei, just be careful." Chen Huan reminded.
"As the saying goes, when is the time to retaliate? That's how this world is. There are entanglements, no one is right, and no one is wrong." He looked melancholy, seeming to have remembered some of his past events.
Wei Heyi was speechless for a moment.
But this was something he expected. Since he decided to let go of his identity at that time, he expected that this day would come.
This is the price.
No one is a simple individual, just like Xiao Yurong. Even if he is bad or evil, to his family, he is the father and the pillar.
Therefore, it is natural that Wei He would be found by his family if he killed Xiao Yurong.
Wei He did not regret not eradicating the problem at that time.
After all, he is not that kind of person. Because of the incident at Rushuifang Store, he will massacre his entire family.
Therefore, we can only take more precautions in the future or take action in advance.
Thinking of this, he suddenly thought that it was time to find some bodyguards for his second sister to prevent any mistakes from happening while he was away.
