The Book of Heaven

Chapter 148 The Great Landlord

For Ma Zheng, the acquaintance with Wang Bo was just a chance encounter. He neither thought about hugging the thigh of a short-lived ghost, nor thought about making a difference in literature.

Since God let him pass through Ma Zheng's body, and in such a world where martial arts are respected, the only way to do it is to practice martial arts down-to-earth.

Originally, this road was considered to be going smoothly. From the time he met Zhao Shuying, Ma Zheng finally embarked on the only road he wanted to take after he came to this world. Even though this road was a bit staggering, it was still on the road.

Counting the time, it has been more than a month since his "elopement" with Zhao Shuying, more than 30 days of torture, although it made Ma Zheng miserable, but at the same time, it also caused earth-shaking changes in Ma Zheng's meridians. Since a month ago, both the smoothness and firmness of the meridians have been greatly improved.

Speaking of which, although Ma Zheng is still only a second-rate master at this time, he is ready to improve to a first-rate master at any time—physical preparations.

In layman's terms, the road for transporting a large amount of internal information has been repaired, and the warehouse is gradually expanding. The only shortcoming is that it is out of stock.Inner breath, apart from the accumulation of practice day and night, the only remaining channel is to take some real geniuses and treasures.

Of course, at different stages, the effects of the same genius land treasure are also different.

In short, the bottle of chalcedony found in Nanduotuo's home could push Ma Zheng to a second-rate level in one fell swoop when he was still in the third-rate realm, but if he took it now, it would only increase his life by less than [-]% at most. It can no longer show that huge effect.

As for giving it to the innate realm, such as Zhao Shuying, it can only be called "icing on the cake".

Based on Ma Zheng's own experience, Zhao Shuying's internal energy is probably at least hundreds of times, even a thousand times as much as Ma Zheng's.It can be seen from this that the gap between the different realms of cultivation is like a natural moat, which cannot be made up by external objects.

"I should be content with it. Others can practice for seven or eight hours a day at most. Anyway, I can be in the state of cultivation endlessly, which is already considered cheating."

The streets in Qianwei County are very narrow, no different from other places. The bluestone road is about two feet wide and houses are built. The foundation of the houses is higher than the roadbed, and Ma Zheng walks on the road. I always feel that I am shorter than those local people standing under the eaves.

"It's still incomparable with Zhao Shuying and the others."

Even though he knew that the speed at which he cultivated his inner breath was as fast as it was, he also learned from Zhao Shuying that babies like them who landed with a golden spoon in their mouths, at least before the innate realm, don't have to worry about lack of external objects, they just need to be in the state of mind. If they can match in practice, the family will naturally use gold and silver to promote it all the way until the gate of Xiantian.

This kind of thing is not to be envied.

People like Zhao Shuying and Huang Tie are undoubtedly the best among them. From this point of view, Ma Detu seems to have failed, and he failed to reach the innate realm smoothly. Zhao Shuying judged that it may be because the cultivation base of Xinxing is not yet at home. .

Ma Zheng feels that he is not bad in both heart and understanding, and what he lacks now is opportunities. It's a pity that once he becomes a wanted criminal of the court, even if there are countless ways to get geniuses and treasures for himself in his mind, he can't. Unable to implement.

unless.
With a light in his eyes, Ma Zheng suddenly thought of a possibility.He stopped immediately, turned around and wanted to go back.

"No eyes!"

Because the road was narrow, and Ma Zheng stopped and turned too suddenly, he almost bumped into the group of people behind him hard.

Although Qianwei County is a remote place, the more remote the place, the easier it is for bullies and local tyrants to breed. In this era, as long as there is a little power and a little brains, in such a place where the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, with generations of people who care about the land It is easy to become a landlord who dominates one side by taking advantage of others.

Unfortunately, Ma Zheng almost bumped into the grandson of Liu De, a landowner in Qianwei County, who lives in Liu De.

The reason why the Liu family is called a big landlord is because they occupy three of the ten stops of cultivated land in Qianwei County, and most of them are good fields near the county seat.

It is said that when the Qipin county magistrate of Qianwei County Yali arrived at the time, the Liu family invited him to go outing outside the city. In front of the county magistrate, the Liu family said proudly: "Everything you see is owned by the Liu family!"
Proud!

Even the county magistrate was taken aback at that time, and quickly lowered his posture - bent down to hug the box of silver that the Liu family gave him.Being an official for thousands of miles is only for money. Now that he has become a county magistrate in a small place like Qianwei, it is better to have money in his pocket. As for the trust of the court, he must put it behind his own benefits.

"I'm really sorry, I didn't bump into you, did I?"

Mr. Liu is in a good mood today. As a tyrant in Qianwei County, Mr. Liu has not done many misfortunes.He was just startled by Ma Zheng just now, and the followers around him saw that Ma Zheng hadn't really bumped into him, so they didn't do anything, they just looked Ma Zheng up and down.

"No, look at your face, do you know me?"

Mr. Liu this year has studied for several years and practiced martial arts for several years, but the result can be described in six words - if you can't write well, you can't do martial arts.

Therefore, the Liu family finally gave up the idea of ​​cultivating him to be outstanding, and only hoped that he could guard the family business and live a good life. It would be best if he could find a wife as soon as possible to complete the important historical mission of having children and inheriting the family.

"This... is really familiar."

The silk and satin from Jiangnan, the tailoring and embroidery from Suzhou and Hangzhou, the crystal clear jade, and the meticulous hairstyle, even if Ma Zheng didn't know Liu Dezhu, he could tell his identity—the son of a rich family.

Brothers from rich families generally have a common problem. For example, they always think that everyone knows them, but they also have to pretend to be low-key and show that they have connotations. The problem is that you wear clothes that can be eaten and worn by ordinary people for decades. Dress up, how can you keep a low profile?
"You really don't know me? No way?"

Liu Dezhu also has this problem, so after Ma Zheng sincerely expressed that he really didn't know him, Liu Dezhu felt very bad. He had an impulse to let Ma Zheng know his impulse.

In fact, Ma Zheng's attire is not bad. After all, he is the godson of a castle owner of the Ma family, and he has lived with a woman of Zhao Shuying's class for a long time. Liu Dezhu still has some eyesight for the mass goods that can be bought casually on the street, so he can see them.

A few attendants smiled apologetically, they knew that their young master's "hospitality" temperament had returned.

This can't be blamed on Liu De's residence, but it's because Qianwei County is too remote, and those who come and go every day are full of nonsense, which has already made Liu De's residence lose its novelty.

Every time he meets outsiders, as long as they are passable outsiders, Liu Dezhu will always make friends with them. He doesn't have much on his mind. To put it bluntly, he just wants to listen to gossip and pass the boring life.

"What's your name? There's a restaurant in front of you. I'll treat you to dinner. How about you chat with me?"

Did the pie fall from the sky?

Ma Zheng looked up at the sky, and then felt that he really had no reason to refuse the invitation of this wealthy young man, maybe he could find a suitable job.

"go!"
