I just want to torture you to death, don't force me to beat you to death

It’s a monthly protection fee collection day.

This was the first time that Chu Ning was unwilling to step out of the patrol room even though he had money.

Ever since he got drunk in the restaurant, he hasn't walked around the town for seven days.

"It's all this woman Tang Ruowei's fault, otherwise how could I have died in society!"

Chu Ning gritted her teeth with hatred. That day he was thrown out of the yard by Tang Ruowei. He, Zhang Song and He Jin didn't know which green onion was wrong, but they insisted on comparing their sizes.

It's a competition, no one of the three is convinced by the superiority of the other, and they have to find someone to judge them.

The final result was that he won.

But the society is dead.

The entire people of Xiafeng Town now know that he is older.

"If the society dies, let the society die. It's better than Zhang Song and He Jin who still lose if the society dies."

Chu Ning could only comfort herself in this way, and after doing enough psychological construction, she stepped out of the patrol room.

"Master Chu, oh, you are indeed a master."

"Master Chu, can you tell us what you eat on weekdays?"

"Master Chu, this is your woman, she will always suffer in the future."

As soon as he went out, Chu Ning almost turned around and walked back to the patrol room when faced with the booing from the people. In the past two years, he had become familiar with the people in the town, and everyone knew that he was very easy-going, so they dared to make fun of him. .

But this is not the main reason. The most important thing is that somehow this matter reached the ears of the old aunt. The old aunt was very happy. Every time she chatted with the women on the street, she would say to everyone: " My Xiaoning..."

This woman is not as reserved as a girl, especially in villages and towns, where she is not taboo about pornographic things. Just like this, the news has spread completely, and it has a tendency to spread to other towns.

"If anyone mentions the word "big" again today, the tax will be increased by 10%!"

As soon as he arrived at the shopping street and looked at the smiling merchants, Chu Ning spoke first, otherwise he was afraid that each of these guys would have to ask again.

Sure enough, as soon as he said this, the faces of the merchants showed disappointment.

"Chu Da... Sir, this is not a big deal."

"It doesn't matter. Pay the money quickly." Chu Ning glared. Under his murderous eyes, the merchants did not dare to joke anymore.

…

…

A month later, the farewell pavilion outside the road in Daning County.

Chu Ning sent Ji Yang away.

Two months later, Chu Ning said goodbye to Zhao Qin and Tang Ruowei.

"Ahem, Chu Ning, don't worry, I will take care of Tang Ruowei for you in Fucheng, and I won't let other men get close to her."

Zhao Qin patted Chu Ning on the shoulder. Chu Ning rolled his eyes. Why did this sound so awkward?

"How about you still fight with me? If you can't defeat me with three moves, you will commit suicide here?"

"Ahem, what are you saying... You and I are classmates, how can I hit you? I'll wait for you two in front."

After being drunk last time and showing his true side, Zhao Qin was no longer aloof.

As for fighting Chu Ning, although he really wanted to, he also knew that it was impossible to defeat Chu Ning with three moves.

Because he couldn't defeat Tang Ruowei with three moves.

And Tang Ruowei said that she couldn't beat Chu Ning.

Tang Ruowei and Chu Ning were the only ones left at the scene.

The two looked at each other in silence.

In the end, it was Tang Ruowei who spoke first.

"Chun Ning, how far have you reached in your martial arts training?"

"Do you want to hear the truth or lies?"

"What's the lie?"

"The lie is that I am a little better than you."

Tang Ruowei's eyes narrowed like crescents, and she was obviously moved by something in her heart.

It's a lie to be stronger than him, which means that Chu Ning is not as strong as him now.

She really wanted to beat Chu Ning before leaving.

"What about the truth?"

"To be honest, I should be able to beat a dozen of you right now."

Tang Ruowei:......

The west wind blew up, blowing the dust on the official road, and also brought Tang Ruowei's voice.

"Chun Ning, when I think I can beat you, I will come back and beat you immediately."

The corners of Chu Ning's lips curled up as he watched the red dress galloping down the official road. Finally, it disappeared deep into the official road, leaving only a touching and beautiful silhouette in his heart.

He paused for a moment, smiled and shook his head.

…

…

In the next month, Chu Ning began his career as a feaster.

Jin Le got married.

Zhang Song got married.

He Jin got married.

…

Being a virgin is of some help in cultivating dark energy, but these three obviously don't care anymore. Anyway, if they can't break through to martial arts in a short time, it doesn't matter if it's a year earlier or a year later.

I thought that three banquets would be enough.

Second month:

Jin Le takes a concubine.

Zhang Song took a concubine.

How dare you take a concubine.

…

…

Chu Ning was a little suspicious. These three guys had agreed to catch him collecting the gift money alone.

In the second month, Chu Ning also received a letter from the border area, sent back by Ji Yang.

In the letter, Ji Yang mentioned that he had already joined the army and was favored by a military general and was recruited as a soldier. Chu Ning was happy for Ji Yang. As a general's soldier, he did not have to be on the front line.

The border of Liang State is a nomadic country, which often enters the border to burn and loot. Liang State once sent a large army deep into the border, but the other party was very cunning. Every time the army pressed on the border, it ran away. When the army retreated, it began to harass the border.

Chu Ning couldn't reply to Ji Yang because he couldn't find anyone to send it. Ji Yang's letter could be sent back because the court allowed border guards to send a letter home every other month.

In the fourth month, Chu Ning received Ji Yang's letter again. In the letter, Ji Yang was very excited because he killed three enemy soldiers and exchanged them for a bottle of "Yangjin Pills" according to the army's meritorious service system. A bottle contains ten pills. .

After that, Chu Ning would receive a letter from Ji Yang every two months.

…

…

This year passed so peacefully, and time entered Chu Ning's third year.

Half of the twelve meridians in Chu Ning's body have been opened, faster than he imagined. It seems that in two to three years, he will be able to break through to become a military commander.

The twenty-year-old general is definitely a genius among geniuses.

He had a bold guess in his mind that the energy of the longevity fruit might be released faster and faster as his body's strength continued to increase.

This year, the old aunt's hair became much whiter.

At this New Year's Eve, Chu Ning originally wanted to ask Lao Liao to spend it together, so that he would be alone and had no place to go. Even the theaters were closed on New Year's Eve.

But Lao Liao proudly told him that this year Xiaoxiang invited him to celebrate the New Year at home.

He also invited the teacher, but the teacher said that he was used to being alone and would not come.

Chu Ning had an intuition that his teacher was also a person with stories.

It can be seen from the teacher's words in the notes that the teacher should have had a similar temperament to Zhao Qin in the early days. If he had not encountered something, he would not have been a teacher in the school.

After the New Year, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Chu Ning received a package from Tang Ruowei.

A letter with only one sentence in it.

"Chun Ning, I have broken through the martial arts masters and am not far from my goal of beating you."

In addition to the letter, there was also a ceramic doll, a miniature version of himself.

There are no ceramic figurines in Daning County, because there is not even a kiln entrance in Daning County, but there is one in Fucheng.

How did Tang Ruowei do it?

Chu Ning was a little curious. It's not like there are photos in modern times that the master can make according to the photos, and there is no portrait. It is rare for the master to be able to make such a likeness based on Tang Ruowei's description.

This year’s Lantern Festival, Chu Ning also put up lanterns.

He has become more and more integrated into the world.

…

…

"Today is the Lantern Festival."

Ji Yang looked up at the bright moon. The moon was always so round wherever it went, but it was different wherever people went.

Ji Yang tightened his thick coat and sniffed.

Maybe the frontier fortress is too cold.

"Captain, would you like a drink to warm yourself up?"

A team member in his thirties next to him handed over a leather gourd. Ji Yang thanked him and took the flask and took a swig, choking and coughing several times.

The wine in the frontier is very strong. He told Chu Ning in his last letter that the wine at home is just water compared to the wine in the frontier. Chu Ning and Jin Le will definitely not believe it, especially Jin Le, who will definitely refute it. They say that the wine in their restaurant is the strongest.

When he returned after the war, he would bring back a few jugs of wine from the frontier, and Jin Le would have nothing to say.

"Captain, seeing you smiling so happily, are you thinking of your family?" The team member sighed: "Actually, at your age, Captain, it would be great to continue to be a soldier for Mr. Cui. You will gain military merit after working steadily for a few years. Yes, it’s so dangerous to fight on the front line.”

"Aren't you also on the front line?"

"We have no choice. We have never practiced martial arts. We only have so little strength. How can we do it if we don't work hard?"

Ji Yang smiled slightly, yes, how could he catch up with Chu Ning and the others if he didn't work hard.

He just didn't want to be pulled too far down.

And he lied. He told Chu Ning that he killed three enemy soldiers, but in fact there was only one. The soldiers on the front line captured ten enemy soldiers, and the general asked him to kill one and get the reward of beheading one enemy soldier. merit.

When you are a general's personal soldier, you don't have to be on the front line, as long as you are loyal to the general. If the soldiers below catch enemy soldiers, the general will give them a chance to behead them.

But such an opportunity only came a few times a year, and he was not the only one of the general's personal soldiers. In the end, he resigned from his position as a personal soldier and chose to go to the front line as the captain of a ten-man team.

The older we get, the more frequent harassment by enemy soldiers becomes.

In the past two months on the front line, he had killed seven enemy soldiers.

From the discomfort at the beginning, not daring to kill, after all, it was a living life, to the numbness later on.

If the enemy soldiers are not killed, the people in the border villages will die.

Kindness to enemy soldiers is cruelty to the common people.

"Captain, have a good sleep. I'll keep watch tonight."

Enemy soldiers are good at riding horses and often attack the border in small groups. Their frontline soldiers are also divided into small teams of ten people and teams of one hundred people, responsible for patrolling and guarding in various areas.

"Enemy attack!"

Just as Ji Yang was about to nod, a sharp whistle sounded, which was a signal for a sneak attack by the enemy.

"All members of the team gather quickly!"

Looking at the direction from which the whistle came, Ji Yang immediately called on the other nine people in the team to move quickly in the direction from which the whistle came.

During this Lantern Festival, he was destined to be unable to admire the full moon and miss home.
