The world of cultivating immortals struggles to develop, and the world of martial arts strikes hard

Chapter 20

Master Hu was scolded by the deputy gang leader for a long time, repeatedly emphasizing not to cause trouble in the near future, to accumulate strength first, and when the time is right, he will wipe out the stubborn gang of gang leaders in one fell swoop and win the power.

Master Hu wanted to explain that Fatty Li wasn't the one who did it, but the deputy gang leader didn't listen.
"It doesn't matter whether you did it or not. Your informant Wang Dahui was arrested, and then Fatty Li died. Now everyone thinks it was you who did it, but it's just that you didn't tear your face in the first place."

Lord Tiger finally nodded helplessly, and promised to keep a low profile in the near future and never provoke the members of the gang.

The deputy gang leader was relieved to leave.

In the afternoon, after Chen Yi finished practicing martial arts, he brought a Linghu fish back home, ready to pack the fish and make fish soup
The little girl Chen Ran's eyes were bright, and she helped Chen Yi pick up firewood, light the fire, and boil water deftly with her hands and feet.
During this period of time, she is as clever as she already knows that the fish at home are different from those in the lake,

The fish that my brother catches every once in a while are very delicious, and I feel strong all over the body for a few days after eating them.

Now, her small body is no longer a skinny cucumber dish, but rosy and fleshy, and among children of the same age, she is the kind who chases boys and beats them.

Chen Yi intentionally asked Chen Ran to build up his body and lay a solid foundation, and when the time was right, he would teach her martial arts.

At this time, Mrs. Chen suddenly ran back from the outside in a hurry,

Pushing open the door, he saw two brothers and sisters sitting by the pot and preparing to cook fish together.
She let out a long breath of relief.

Then, her face became extremely serious, she stared at Chen Yi and said:
"Xiao Yi, do you know that Guanshi Li is dead?"

"Ah?!" Chen Yi's face was shocked, he raised his head and opened his mouth wide: "Master Li is dead?"

Chen was a little suspicious: "You really don't know?"

"Mom, I practice martial arts honestly, go fishing, and come back to cook. How can I know about Master Li in the gang?"

Mrs. Chen thought for a while, then breathed a sigh of relief: "That's right, my son is timid and obedient, how could he get involved in gang affairs?
Okay, it's nothing to do with you, let's cook well, put less salt in the soup today, and now the salt price has risen again!

In addition, you should go to the market less during this period. Now that the gang is changing management, I don’t know if it will be chaotic. We still have some food in our family, so we can save enough to eat for two months. "

Chen Yi looked at the nagging mother, and kept nodding in agreement, but his hands were careless, he added a lot of salt, and steamed a few more steamed buns than usual.
He is now in the golden period of qi and blood growth, so he can't save it. As for food, there is always a way.

The market on this side is not easy to go to, so why not go to the other side?
Not long after dinner, another gong sounded outside the village:
"Give it all out to me!"

The leader of the three people who came to Huxi Village this time was a tall and muscular young man.

"Our young leader personally came to investigate the case, anyone who dares to know and not report will be executed immediately!"

A middle-aged steward drank heavily.

The fishermen in Huxi Village didn't dare to speak out, and Chen Yi hid behind the crowd, shrunk his shoulders and bowed his head in silence.

Lei Zhen, the leader of the young sect, is at least a martial artist with great strength, and it is very likely that he has become a warrior with dark strength.
Chen Yi didn't have any intention of provoking the other party.

And Lei Zhen probably knew what happened to Fatty Li's death, and coming to Huxi Village was just a formality.

After asking some questions about yesterday, he nodded and gave up without embarrassing anyone.

It turned out that there was a steward surnamed Zhao among them. After the young gang leader asked the question, he shouted loudly:

"I am the new steward of the farmer's market from today onwards, is there anyone going to the market to sell goods today?

Consciously stand up and pay the tax! "

Manager Zhao looked around for a week and saw that all the villagers bowed their heads and no one responded.

"Give you one last chance, I'll count to three!"

"three"

"two"

"one!"

"You can't come out, do you?"

"Who is Widow Sun, stand up!"

The man yelled loudly, and suddenly the crowd parted into a line. The villagers around Widow Sun hurriedly dispersed as if they had learned that there was a plague nearby.

Widow Sun's pale face was exposed!

"Go, search her house for me!"

Immediately, under the guidance of the villagers, the following gang members went to Widow Sun's house to resist and brought out two bags of wheat chaff.
This is a kind of food that is cheaper than sorghum noodles, and it can barely satisfy your hunger, without any nutritious things.

Widow Sun saw that the two backers had collapsed, and took advantage of the fact that no one was collecting taxes in the market today, so she quickly replaced most of the bags of sorghum noodles at home with two large bags of wheat bran.
Unexpectedly, he was arrested at night.

Snapped!Snapped!
Manager Zhao slapped Widow Sun to the ground with two slaps.
Then, in front of everyone, a bag of wheat bran was poured into the lake, and the wheat bran floated on the surface of the lake and was quickly washed away along the ripples.

Manager Zhao threatened:
"This half is your tax for buying and selling grain today. If anyone dares to commit the crime again, he will be beheaded!"

After finishing speaking, he threw the other half of the chaff on the widow Sun who fell to the ground. Half a bag of chaff was spilled, covered with a lot of muddy water.

With red eyes, Widow Sun put the chaff into the bag little by little with her hands,

The neighbors were watching, but no one dared to step forward to help.

After Zhao Guanshi finished this, he saluted Lei Zhen and said:
"Young Master, do you see?"

The young man swept around the crowd with his hands behind his back, his eyes paused on Chen Yi's face, then he glanced over and continued to look down, and finally said:
"Since you are protected by my Fish and Dragon Gang, you must abide by the rules of my gang. Although you know that Guanshi Li's death cannot be done by people in your village,

But I still want to emphasize, I don't care if you have any second thoughts about my fish and dragon gang, but anyone who dares to reach out will have their claws chopped off! "

"go!"

Lei Zhen took the lead to leave with his hands behind his back, and his follower Zhao Guanshi hurriedly followed:
"Young Master, are you sure they are not suspected?"

"Hmph, I already know who the murderer is, so I'm just going through the motions here.

The only one among these mud legs who is learning martial arts in the martial arts hall is also a waste who can't afford the soup, and it is a waste of time here.

Restrain your men after you go back, be careful recently, sometimes the enemy may not be outside, it may be inside! "

Widow Sun put away the muddy wheat bran and came to the lake again, trying to pick up the floating wheat bran, but she couldn't swim and dared not go into the water.

She looked around as if asking for help, and finally a 40-year-old bachelor in the village, Old Wu, took off his clothes and went into the water to help her pick up some wet chaff.

Then Old Wu enthusiastically helped Widow Sun fight the chaff back home,

Didn't come out that night.

These things were quickly spread by the women in the village in the square at the head of the village.
Chen Yi didn't care, he didn't care, and he didn't tell anyone about it. When he was in the market during the day, he passed by the grain store and accidentally chatted with the grain store manager about Widow Sun's coming to sell sorghum noodles for wheat chaff.
At that time, Chen Yi was just a temptation, but now it seems that this grain shop has a deep relationship with the Fish and Dragon Gang.

Similarly,

I'm afraid the same is true for Li Baitiao, who collects fish.

Thinking of this, Chen Yi recalled the young gang leader's gaze on his face deliberately for a moment just now,

Guessing, probably Li Baitiao and the gang from the fish shop mentioned his name,

Fortunately, I have never sold a big fish weighing more than 30 catties here.

He didn't have a high-profile performance in the martial arts hall, so he wasn't targeted today.

Well, we need to be more cautious in the future.

In the entire lakeside town, there is nothing that the Fish Dragon Gang cannot grasp.
