Being an otaku in the world of American comics
#76 - Hong Xiguan and his son
“Bang~!”
Just then, a shattering sound suddenly came from the side.
Liang Yue turned his head and saw that the shop door had been kicked open from the outside, and then two figures, one large and one small, slowly walked in from the outside.
This was obviously a father and son~
The adult was wearing an old moon-white robe, with a stern face, and his appearance was seven or eight parts similar to that of the Kung Fu Emperor Jet Li, with very sharp eyes.
Even with half a bald head, he still looked heroic and had the air of a great hero.
The child looked only about eight or nine years old, but the expression on his face was exactly the same as that of the adult beside him, both cold and unapproachable.
Seeing these two suddenly barging in, Liang Yue's eyes lit up.
If he guessed correctly, the identities of these two people should be the absolute protagonists of this New Shaolin Five Ancestors world, Hong Xiguan and Hong Wending.
According to the development trajectory of the plot, this father and son will almost certainly come to Ma Village, but Liang Yue did not expect that the opportunity to meet them would come so quickly~
“Why did you hurt people?”
Looking at Liang Yue holding a straight saber, Hong Xiguan was stunned for a moment, but then quickly returned to normal, squinting his eyes and looking at him, and asked in a cold voice.
Obviously, with Liang Yue's current sixteen-year-old appearance, Jet Li, who had experienced many Jianghu affairs, could naturally tell at a glance that this guy seemed to be a fledgling novice.
In fact, it was not only Hong Xiguan, but even the squinting-eyed shop assistant who had just had his tongue cut off by someone, obviously saw it, which is why the scene of the shopkeeper overcharging him earlier occurred.
They wanted to rely on their advantage as a local bully, with many people, and the relationship with the local government, to embezzle his two gold bars.
It's just that the shopkeeper obviously didn't expect that although Liang Yue looked a bit tender, he was actually a tough guy!
“They wanted to embezzle my silver and also planned to collude with the government to send me to prison, is that a good enough reason?”
Liang Yue heard this, the corner of his mouth slightly curved, and said to the father and son in front of him.
“You acted a little too hard.”
After hearing Liang Yue's words, Hong Xiguan subconsciously looked again at the four people who were rolling on the ground, and the shop assistant with the cut mouth, which was considered to be tacitly acknowledging that he was on the side of justice~
“……Farewell.”
Hong Xiguan's style of doing things was obviously very straightforward. Seeing that he didn't need to act chivalrously, he nodded to him and directly turned around and left with his son.
“Then~ see you again if fate allows!”
He cupped his fists at the father and son. Only after they walked out of the shop did Liang Yue turn his head again and continue to look at the squinting eyes in front of him, who was distraught and wanted to pretend to be crazy to delay time.
Thanks to the shop assistant's loud shouts earlier, not only did Hong Xiguan and his son notice the situation of the gold shop and broke in through the door at the first time.
At this moment, outside the shop door, a group of people and neighbors also discovered the inappropriateness here, and they all gathered there to watch the excitement, pointing at the gold shop.
Some of the bolder ones even peeked inside, grabbing the door frame.
Under this circumstance, the government constables who maintained law and order in the town would probably arrive soon.
So~
“Hurry up a bit~! If you don’t want to lose anything else, quickly take me to get the silver~”
As he spoke, Liang Yue had already placed the straight saber in his hand on the squinting eyes' neck.
The sharp and cold edge of the blade was tightly pressed against the other party's skin, and a shallow wound had been cut open without anyone noticing, a trickle of blood was slowly flowing down his neck.
The faint smell of blood immediately awakened him. Looking at Liang Yue's handsome face in front of him, with a faint smile, the shop assistant shivered subconsciously, and then quickly got up from the ground.
His mouth was gurgling with blood, and with a look of horror on his face, he led him towards the back hall.
……
About a quarter of an hour later, the government's men finally arrived after hearing the news. After driving away the idlers around, they swarmed into the gold shop.
It was a pity that Liang Yue had already climbed over the wall from the back door and left the scene at this time.
After arriving at the back hall, he directed the squinting eyes to take him straight to the gold shop's vault.
Faced with such a black shop that planned to plot against his gold bars and also wanted to send him to prison, Liang Yue naturally wouldn't be polite to them at this time.
After knocking the shop assistant unconscious, he began a wanton search. Whether it was the gold and silver in the vault, or the shelves and wooden boxes used to store goods, they were all taken into the stronghold world in one go.
Only after emptying the entire vault did Liang Yue stop somewhat reluctantly.
Turning his head and looking at the squinting eyes still lying by the wall, he hesitated for a moment, wondering whether to get rid of this person to avoid future troubles.
After all, whether it was from the other party's previous actions, or the wanted poster that the government might issue after he left.
Liang Yue didn't seem to have any reason to spare his life, but having grown up in a society ruled by law, he ultimately hesitated when he was about to act.
……
“I’m always too softhearted~ too softhearted, bearing all the problems myself……”
Humming an unclear little tune, Liang Yue did not leave immediately after leaving the gold shop at this moment.
Instead, he circled around a big circle, put a dusty coat on himself in the middle, and finally returned to the previous bustling street.
When passing by the entrance of the gold shop, this guy even stood in the crowd and watched the excitement for a while.
It's just that Liang Yue at this moment was already somewhat different.
Especially that face. Although the face shape hadn't changed much, the skin already appeared whiter, and the details of the facial features had also been slightly adjusted.
Moreover, compared to before, the slightly resolute look between Liang Yue's eyebrows, the temperament on this guy's face had become more melancholy and gentle.
At a glance, it was almost like he had changed into a different person!
At this moment, if there were other transmigrators from his previous life who had also come to the New Shaolin Five Ancestors world in front of him, after meeting this guy, they would definitely exclaim.
“How can there be people in this world who look so alike!”
……
《Disguiser Mask》: A disguise that changes appearance according to the wearer's will. Once formed, it cannot be changed again. It can only be used to cover the face and cannot affect the user's aura.
Price: 500 points.
……
This thing was one of the few two items that Liang Yue bought from the system store in the two weeks before the real world.
According to the system's introduction, this mask seemed to be a product from a certain fantasy world. Its grade was not high, but it was a must-have item for some lone rangers to travel the Jianghu.
The first time Liang Yue saw this item, he immediately realized that this thing would definitely be of great use to his future journey.
So, he bought it without hesitation and put it on the system store's long-term purchase list~
In addition to this, the other item that Liang Yue bought was a pile of messy seeds, about thirty or forty, from the Don't Starve game world.
Before starting the journey through the heavens, he had already planted them in the stronghold world, but because of the planting time, they had not yet officially grown up and matured.
Therefore, it is temporarily impossible to judge what crops those seeds are specifically.
