Chapter 261 (1/2)
The market is more like the material reserve warehouse of wuxia mountain. It is not a wide long square. It is surrounded by houses for selling or hoarding goods. The passers-by are also disciples of wuxia mountain. There is no Hawking or bargaining. The numbness and indifference of ”selling” things and the listlessness of ”buying” things make the atmosphere of the whole market very dull and poor.
Zhang Zhou lost his interest before he took a few steps, so he planned to go back. At this time, a group of people came outside, carrying their shoulders. It seems that people who bought from the foot of the mountain have no official road to Wuxia mountain, and there is no frame. All materials can only be transported in this most primitive way.
The scale of wuxia mountain is huge. Naturally, it has to be divided into three, six, nine and so on. These people should be the lowest ranking servants.
As soon as these people entered the square, they rudely threw the package on their back on the ground, and then lay down on the package. They were panting. It seemed that they were tired and didn't even have the strength to speak.
Zhang Zhou was numb when he saw this scene. On the whole, the Tang Dynasty was strong and rich, but the life of the people at the bottom was still very difficult. It was not uncommon for many people to sell children and women. There were also a large number of coolies in Kyushu business, but the benefits were much richer. It's good to live in such a big sect as Wuxia mountain.
At this time, a steward ran over. Before the man ran to him, the curse had spread to him.
”A group of rubbish should have come back yesterday. They just arrived today. It's good to be lazy here!”
Although there is no whip, but the attitude has been extremely cheap. Those men seem to have been used to being scolded without any reaction. They still sit or lie down and continue to rest.
How many people in Wuxia mountain don't know kung fu? The steward's pace was so fast that he ran to him in an instant. Seeing that these people ignored themselves, he couldn't help getting angry. After a quick inspection, he finally stopped on one of them and narrowed his eyes.
He walked closer to the man and scolded, ”Chen Wenji, I know you must take the lead in laziness!”
Before the words fell, one foot had been kicked in the past. The target was the man's chest. If this foot was kicked, it would be seriously injured. Chen Wenji seemed totally unprepared, but at the moment when the other party was about to step on his foot, he suddenly shot and hit the steward's foot.
The steward knew that the other party was not easy to provoke. He remained cautious when he stepped out. When he saw that the other party had no response, he was completely relieved and tried his best. Unexpectedly, Chen Wenji secretly took precautions against himself. His fist hit him very fast and hard. He hit his foot directly. His whole body was numb and numb. The whole person was blown out by the fist force and fell to the ground without struggle.
People in the surrounding shops rushed out one after another when they saw the scene. Someone came forward to check the steward who couldn't afford to fall to the ground, while most people surrounded these men.
Another steward came out, pointed to Chen Wenji, who stood up, and scolded, ”he still regards himself as a character? Do you know where this is? Do you know what you are now?”
Chen Wenji jumped up with anger.
”You villains, seeing that I'm in a bad situation, you'll make difficulties and frame up to please the man surnamed Shi. I've been patient again and again, and you're endless! I'm Chen Wenji standing here today to see who dares to come openly?”
The people around me yelled and scolded constantly, but no one dared to come near. Chen Wenji is far less famous in Wuxia mountain than Shi Zhen and Liu fengyao, but he is also famous for fighting hard. Now, in order not to be driven down the mountain, he can only endure humiliation and be bullied. But once he gets powerful, few people dare to conflict with him
Zhang Zhou remembered who this man was. The eldest martial brother who died in Shi Zhen's hands, Qin Mu's own disciple, once questioned Shi Zhen in public when Xun Qingzi held a memorial ceremony.
I can't imagine that now it has been reduced to such a situation. People really can't live without luck. Even if the elder was not a prominent figure, he wouldn't suffer such humiliation. When the tree fell, he was unwilling to bow down and be a minister. The result can be imagined! There is no labor law to protect your rights and interests in this era.
Zhang Zhou thought and shouted.
”Who's in charge here?”
The voice was loud and immediately suspended the dispute among those people. These people are all people at the bottom of the martial arts mountain. No one knows who these people are, but from the perspective of dress up, they are not ordinary people. They are probably friends of a big man in the mountain gate. They dare not offend rashly.
An old steward came over, bowed and said, ”I'm the steward here. I don't know who this master is? What's your order?”
Zhang Zhou smiled and didn't speak. Instead, he put his arms around the old man's shoulder, quietly handed over a silver ticket, and whispered in his ear, ”scatter the people, and leave those coolies to me to do some work!”
The old man glanced at the silver ticket. There was a whole small pile. There must be hundreds of taels. He was very excited. He was still out at this age. What was the picture? Don't you want to earn more money for the elderly? He may not be able to get so much oil and water after a hard year, so he hurriedly collected the silver tickets.
”Sir, if you have anything else to say, just say it!”
”No, I'm very busy. Go to work quickly and don't delay my time!”
”OK, OK!”
The old man ran back with light feet and shouted a few words to those people. The big guy was still a little puzzled. It was a good time to teach these disobedient people a lesson. Why did he withdraw suddenly? The old man was afraid that Zhang Zhou was angry. When he saw no action, he directly scolded them.
”Didn't you hear what I said? Leave quickly. What should I do? Don't get in the way here! Hurry up! Get out of here if you don't want to!”
The job was not easy, and the old man had great rights, so he left one after another. The injured steward was also carried away from the scene by several people.
The old man went to Chen Wenji again and said coldly, ”boy, don't be proud. Today is different from the past. If you have the ability, you can roll down the martial arts mountain. If you want to stay on the mountain, you can be honest and obedient. Don't toast and don't eat and punish! The uncle over there needs your help. If you neglect it a little, I'll make you feel overwhelmed! Hum!”
Seeing Zhang Zhou coming back, his face suddenly opened like flowers.
”Sir, I've ordered it!”
”Thank you for your help. You can leave!”
The old man bowed back. Zhang Zhou went to Chen Wenji, looked at the people behind him, and said in a tone that Chen Wenji could only hear: ”if you want to avenge your master, come with me!”
Chen Wenji was stunned and thought he had heard wrong. As a result, Zhang Zhou glanced at him.
”I also want to kill Shi Dan. Do you understand?”
This time, Chen Wenji confirmed, his eyes lit up and nodded again and again. Listen to Zhang Zhou loudly say: ”you immediately go to the entrance outside the assembly, move quickly, everyone has a reward!”
……
Go down the mountain to buy wine and meat and send them to Ziyun peak. One person can get twenty Liang silver. Where can I find such a good thing? My fatigue was swept away. A dozen servants roared down the mountain
”Why do you buy so much wine and meat?” Yan Xinxin didn't understand.
”Naturally, it's to improve life. The food on Ziyun peak is too clear and there is little water. I can't eat enough. How can I have the strength to compete and practice martial arts with you?”
”Accompany me? I'll accompany you, okay?”
”If it's with me, can I refuse?”
