Chapter 117 (1/2)
An Zeng sat under the willow tree and drank with the Golden Three Token to chat.
In front of them, there was a huge mess. Those who were causing trouble were beaten to the point of crying and crying for their mothers and fathers.
However, on the side of the Struggle and the Golden Three Token, it seemed so quiet that it was only the two of them.
””When I first arrived at Fringe City four years ago, the first person I recruited was Fatty Si, and the second was you.
””At that time, the two of you were the only bandits in Fringe City. Other people might say that you killed people with bloodl.u.s.t, but I know that you two never killed innocents.””
””At that time, I wanted to offer you a cup of wine, but you said that I was the Lord and that this cup of wine was not for you to drink.””
But in my opinion, there's never been any master-slave relations.h.i.+p between us.
””I respected you as a person and called you 'big brother'. Thus, I drank one cup of wine for you and three cups for myself.””
He handed the flagon to Jin San, ””That year, the citizens of Fringe City's King Village were robbed by the Poison Wolf Village. More than seventy people from a small village were killed.””
””Go into the Poison Wolf's Camp with a blade in your hand. Take seven arrows and three sabers. There are two holes left in your body from the pike. Are you still wounded?””
Jin San smiled tearfully. ””Why isn't he here? It still hurts even when it rains on a cloudy day.””
Ang nodded. ””Pull those sc.u.m over here.””
A group of men dragged a group of people with broken legs to stand in front of An Zeng. After throwing them to the ground, the group of people wailed in such a way that it made people's ears go numb.
””Take off your coat.””
The Golden Three Token hesitated for a moment before dodging the jacket. The scars on its body were shocking to the eye.
An Zhan pointed at the scars on Jin San's body and said, ””He didn't fight back when you beat him up and scolded him. It was because he tolerated it, not because he was afraid of you!””
He looked towards the Golden Three Token, ””I have asked around since then, the reason why you killed your way into the Poison Wolf's Camp is because an old grandma of the Great King's Village cooked you a pot of porridge when you were poor and dest.i.tute.””
You said many times that if you hadn't had that pot of gruel, you would have been dead.
””I heard that the people from the Poison Wolf's Village ransacked the village. You rushed back from one hundred and thirty miles away in one night, but by the time you arrived, the village was already littered with corpses.””
””Then you went to the Poison Wolf's Stronghold and killed all the bandits.””
An Xuan looked at the men lying on the ground and said, ””You dare call yourselves men in front of him?!””
The reason why he didn't retaliate was because he didn't want the Heavenly Ascension Sect to have someone who bullied the common people scolding them.
Do you really think that he doesn't dare to hit you?
””Don't dare to cripple you?””
One of the men knew that he had met a tough opponent this time. He endured the pain and begged for mercy, ””Master An, Master An, we know we're in the wrong.””
””This is our mistake, shall we just let it go?””
A woman called after him, ””Forget it?””
How can he beat you up like this?
””I want him to go bankrupt!””
An Zeng sighed and then turned his head, ””I never want to see a woman get beaten up. Most of the time, the men who beat up women are all b.a.s.t.a.r.ds.””
””But a woman like you isn't worthy of being a woman.””
The woman was still shrieking, ””What can you do to me?””
””If you dare to hit me, I will let everyone in the city know that your Heaven's Enlightenment Sect is a rogue!””
””Look into their background.””
Skinny Du immediately arranged for people to investigate. In less than ten minutes, he gathered a lot of information from the nearby streets.
””These people are all from the same family, that is, Fang Gu.
All year long, they relied on touching porcelain to ama.s.s wealth, and gave Fang Shoufu a lot of filial piety, so Fang Shoufu also did not ask.
They were keeping an eye on the people who had come into the capital from outside the city. Many of them had been extorted by them to the point of losing everything they owned.
These people did not seem to be all. It was said that their group had more than one hundred people.
””I'm guessing that there are still some of them waiting outside, afraid of being beaten up and not daring to show their faces.””
””Every year, they extort a lot of money from people who enter the city from outside, and local people are bullied by them a lot,”” he said in a low voice.
The Fang family received the benefits and turned a blind eye.
An Chao nodded, ””Drag all these people into the sect, send someone to the Fang family's residence, and ask how that Prefect Xu Zheng will handle this matter.””
Madman Qu walked over from the door, ””I'll go.””
An Zeng nodded, ””It's fine if you go. You've been there too many times, so you're quite familiar with the route.””
Madman Qu smiled, ””I'm old, so I can run errands.””
””If you're twenty years younger, I'll go up and beat you, too.””
An Zizhi smiled, ””Forget it, it doesn't hurt to hit someone. It hurts your hands.””
Madman Qu turned around and walked towards those few constables. Those constables also knew that it was not an easy fight to be dealt with. After listening to Madman Qu's words, they came over.
The leader of the constables quickly bowed and bowed towards An Zaihai. ””Master An, we are also watching this matter. Don't worry, if the Prefect asks us about it, we will tell him the truth.””
An Xuan said, ””It's been tough, let me buy you a drink later.””
When those few constables heard An Zaiyue say that he wanted to buy them a drink, they knew that there were benefits to be had. After that, they became even more polite, turned around and followed Madman Qu to the Fang family's residence.
Those women, including the old lady, were still lying on the ground, unable to get up. They were too lazy to bother about the fight, so they allowed the big men to surround them and not a single one of them was allowed to leave.
After an hour or so, those women felt that there was no point in lying down and started to curse.
Until now, they didn't think that they would encounter a boulder that they couldn't even chew on this time around.
These people were so greedy and greedy that they had lost their brains. They thought that An Zaihai had come to the capital from outside the city and had heard that the Heavenly Ascension Sect was very rich. Thus, they plotted to run into the entrance of the Heavenly Ascension Sect.
Not long after that, Master Liu, Master of the Fang family, and the closest confidant of the Fang family, Xu Zhengsheng, rushed over personally.
This was a man who always seemed to be humble, but Andersen knew exactly how many flowers there were in the belly of such a man.
