C242 River and Lake Far away
The next day.
Northern Frontier, lu Family Fort.
"Sir, everything is ready."
Looking at Lu Diao who was standing at the side, the black-robed man nodded and took a set of clothes from the attendant in front of him.
The matter of preparing the clothes. It was just a coincidence. When he was drinking with Lu Diao yesterday, Du Kang told him that he wanted to go to the Pugilistic World to find the remaining weapons. He also asked Lu Diao to be his guide. After that, he was taught a lesson by the drunk Lu Diao.
"Um... Sir, I'm not talking about you." The drunk and sleepy Lu Diao patted Du Kang's shoulder. "It's too eye-catching to walk in the Pugilistic World in your clothes. Are you wearing armor to attract the Wuwei Army? What's the difference between wearing that robe and not wearing it? Anyone who should be able to see it can see it. "
This... seems to make some sense.
After Du Kang kindly expressed that he could not take off the armor, Lu Diao, who had cold sweat all over his body after waking up from the alcohol, quickly prepared new clothes for Du Kang.
Du Kang deftly put on the big cloak on his body, then looked at the mirror in the servant's hand.
Indeed, this way it would be closer to life. The black robe that he wore at the beginning was indeed a bit too exotic.
"Alright, let's go..."
Du Kang wanted to take Lu Diao away, but he found that Lu Diao was looking at him awkwardly.
"What?"
Du Kang scratched his head in confusion.
Oh right, there was also a helmet.
He reached out and took a bamboo stick from the servant's hand. Du Kang casually put it on his head.
Although the helmet would still be seen through, at least it would not be discovered immediately.
"Let's go."
Du Kang waved his hand.
"Go to the Jianghu."
————————
Yangzhou, jiangdu County.
"You said that this pile of stuff is going to be sold for 5 RMB?"
On the street, in front of a messy stall, a man in a green shirt was holding a horse. He looked at the white-haired old man in front of him and frowned.
"Old thing, if you insist on blackmailing me... Alright, follow me to see the official." The man in green pointed at a distance, "The government office of Anping Army is over there. Let's see who can come out."
As a famous local litigator, pei YuanNan had always disdained using violence against others. If there was a conflict, he would report it directly to the government. As for after entering the government office... his reputation as the Sharp-mouthed Shark was not in vain.
"Do you know that Old Zhang at the street corner? The lawsuit that should have been won was because the defendant's rich family invited that bastard Pei YuanNan to the court and forced him to lose the case, causing his family to be ruined and his family to die... and Old Xing at the front street..."
This was an emotional sigh that came from a common person living in Jiangdu when he mentioned Pei YuanNan.
However, pei YuanNan treated these rumors as a form of praise.
Those curses were just the wails of a defeated dog. The more he cursed, the more he could prove his ability. He was also making a living by relying on his own ability. If he didn't let his family collapse and his family die, who would he eat?
Furthermore, guan Han did not like Confucianism. He preferred Legalism and Infantry. The strictness of the law was comparable to the previous Qin. No one dared to say anything about the royal family. No. These unruly people did not learn the law, but when they lost the lawsuit, they went to talk about benevolence and morality. The defendant deserved it even if he died.
"Not going to the yamen, not going to the yamen." The white-haired old man waved his hand repeatedly, "Not going to the yamen, I'm not going. It's all yours. I don't want it anymore. "
"How much is this pile of junk worth?" Pei YuanNan shook his head, "It's better to meet the official. What if you win the lawsuit?"
"I... I..." The white-haired old man fished out a dozen scattered copper coins from his bosom, "I only have these..."
"Oh." Pei YuanNan glanced at the pitiful copper coins in the old man's hand, "Let's go, the Anping Army's yamen is over there."
"I..." The old man took out an exquisite pendant from his pocket. "And this, this is my ancestral safety talisman, I beg you."
Looking at the small pendant that looked like a sickle, pei YuanNan's heart inexplicably palpitated.
"This thing..." Pei YuanNan snatched the pendant from the old man's hand. "Alright, I'm in a good mood today. I won't fuss about this matter anymore."
Ignoring the old man's tearful face, pei YuanNan mounted his horse and left.
However, pei YuanNan did not see that the moment he turned his head, the expression on the white-haired old man's face that looked like he was about to cry immediately disappeared, leaving only a strange smile on his face.
Ignoring the scattered stalls, the white-haired old man just stood there and watched Pei YuanNan leave.
He had a smile on his face.
————————
On the official road, a burly man in a big cloak was looking at a few figures running away. Those figures disappeared from his sight after a few leaps.
Was this the legendary Qing Gong? It could actually make humans run faster than rabbits...
But...
Du Kang turned his head and looked at Lu Diao, who was smiling stiffly beside the carriage.
"In the Central Plains, is your relationship with people that bad?" Du Kang felt a little helpless. "This is the fifth batch of people who came to pick a fight."
"That... Your Excellency." Lu Diao was a little embarrassed, "I have good relations with them, but they came mainly to make a name for themselves."
Make a name for themselves?
Du Kang somewhat understood what Lu Diao meant.
"Those people are all rookies in the martial arts world." Lu Diao explained, "They learned some famous kung fu. The fastest way to become famous was to step on seniors to become famous. If you win, your reputation will spread far and wide. Even if he lost, it wouldn't be shameful. When the time came, he would tell them which seniors he had consulted before. It's also a matter of pride. "
Du Kang nodded as he listened to Lu Diao's explanation.
It was indeed similar to what he had thought. It seemed that even though there was a huge problem with the way these humans fought, their nature had not changed.
However...
"I say..." Du Kang looked at Lu Diao, "You know this trick so well, so you didn't know how to..."
"You must be joking..." Lu Diao smiled awkwardly. "Who hasn't been young..."
Really?
Du Kang looked at Lu Diao in surprise.
He didn't expect this young man to be even more chuunibyou than him.
"Forget it." Du Kang waved his hand, "Let's continue."
However, just when Du Kang was unaware, those rookies who had escaped because Du Kang did not want to kill the innocent had already returned to the Central Plains.
These rookies had originally gone to challenge Lu Diao, the Kun Peng. In the end, they were forced to retreat by a punch from the burly man in the bamboo hat beside Lu Diao. They didn't even have a chance.
When they saw the man in the bamboo hat break their weapons like broken chopsticks, the young martial artists completely gave up on fighting and ran back.
But... what should they say about this?
Could it be that the Kun Peng didn't even use its hand before it was beaten back by a follower?
No, I definitely can't say that. That would be too embarrassing! He had to change the way he said it.
That bamboo hat man was very powerful, very powerful, but he wasn't very famous - - that wasn't a problem, just give him a name.
All the rookies in the pugilistic world simultaneously thought of the fiendish aura that the bamboo hat man had released when he punched. It was as if the heavens were devouring the earth.
As for the thousand mile Kunpeng... The rookies in the pugilistic world were filled with resentment towards him. We came all the way to find you, what do you mean by not even attacking once?
Thus, in less than half a month, there was a new rumor in the Pugilistic World.
The thousands of miles Kun Peng Lu Diao and the foreign man, Magic and Martial Sovereign, came to challenge the entire martial arts world in the Central Plains.
