Chapter 331 The Sword Chooses Its Master "But..." Xie Cheng paused and said, "Since the death of Emperor Xuan, the sword has disappeared inexplicably. As for where it went, no one knows. Some people say that it has turned into a dragon and returned to heaven, while others say that it was hidden by Emperor Xuan, so that for a period of time later, Canglan was invaded by various countries just to find this sword." These were all what he saw in the history books of Canglan. Many people did not believe it, including himself. After all, this looked like a deliberately made-up story. "But, wasn't Canglan established only 23 years ago?" Tang Xi was puzzled. Xie Cheng explained, "The original Canglan was not actually called Canglan, but Xuan, named after Emperor Xuan." "I see!" Tang Xi nodded in realization. She raised the Qianye Sword in her hand, and she had some doubts in her heart. The previous owner of this space was very likely this Emperor Xuan. System: "No doubt, she was indeed the master of this space, but not the previous one, but the one before that." Tang Xi pursed her lips and smiled, she said it. System: "Qianye Sword is the guardian spirit of this space. It is indeed transformed by the white dragon, but it was not saved by Emperor Yan, but existed when this space was formed. It can also be said that this space can be formed because of it." "So that's it!" Tang Xi nodded secretly in his heart. "Where did you get this Qianye Sword?" Xie Cheng was very curious. How did the magic sword that once made a sensation in the martial arts world fall into Tang Xi's hands? However, fortunately, time has passed for a long time, and no one will remember the appearance of Qianye Sword except those who are interested. Moreover, for everyone, this is just a legend. Whether it is true or not depends on people's minds. "I don't know either." Tang Xi shook his head and said, "It existed after I woke up." Xie Cheng murmured, "Could it be that this is the legendary magic sword choosing its master?" "What is the story of the magic sword choosing its master?" Tang Xi asked curiously. Xie Cheng: "The story of the sword choosing its master is said to have been passed down for a hundred years. It is said that there is a sword called Liuying, which was forged by an immortal. Later, it was obtained by a master, but the sword refused to be driven by the master. There was no way, so the master had to advertise to the world, saying that as long as anyone can make the sword willingly recognize him as the master, he will accept that person as his disciple and grant him a set of magic skills." Tang Xi: "What happened later?" "Later, it is said that the sword recognized a young man as its master, and that young man later became the leader of the martial arts world. However, I have only seen this kind of thing in some miscellaneous notes, and I am not sure whether it is true or not." System: "The story is fictional. Liuying is Qianye Sword, and the leader of the martial arts world is the previous owner of the space." Tang Xi was stunned. So, everyone who owns the space has done a great career, but she is the only one who is doing nothing? System: "You don't have to feel inferior. After all, different identities require different efforts. This is true for all the masters of the space. For example, the Emperor Yan is a princess, and the leader of the martial arts world is the head disciple of a major sect in the world. But you are a small peasant girl, and your goal is to make a fortune." Tang Xi: "Maybe, one day, I can also do something big?" System: "Look forward to your future performance." Tang Xi is a little distressed. Maybe, she can become the richest person in Canglan Country in the future? However, she needs to find a way to plant more Wanling Flowers, but the planting condition of Wanling Flowers must be irrigated by spiritual springs. It seems that she has to develop from other places, and can't just develop in Yanzhipu, which limits her potential. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 332 Ruins "What are you thinking about?" Seeing that she had been silent for a long time, Xie Cheng hurriedly asked. "I'm thinking... should I do some other business." She is not short of money now. She has looted a lot from the pirates. Anyway, it will stay in the space, so it is better to take it out and make money. "What business do you want to do?" Xie Cheng asked with a smile. She looked at Xie Cheng and asked: "Have you heard of hot pot? What about skewers?" "This... seems to be available." Xie Cheng said: "Hot pot has existed since the founding of the country by Emperor Xuan. skewers were made by the leader of the martial arts world a hundred years ago. Later, his descendants opened some chain stores." Tang Xi:... Alas, it's still a step late after all! "Then... what about red wine? Have you heard of it?" "Yeah!" Xie Cheng nodded, "It has also existed since the founding of the country by Emperor Xuan. There are also a few jars in the cellar of Xie's mansion. If you want to drink it, I'll give it to you." "No!" Tang Xi laughed dryly. She also has grapes in her space, and she brewed a few jars herself, but she hasn't drunk them yet. I didn't expect that there are so many time travelers in this country! It seems that if she wants to surpass her previous friends, she can only go in the direction of medical skills. She can't be an empress, and she is not interested in being the leader of the martial arts world, but she can be a genius doctor. Xie Cheng looked at the Qianye Sword in her hand and reminded her: "This Qianye Sword, if you don't have anything to do, it's better not to take it out." No matter how powerful a person is, he will eventually have a weak spot. Tang Xi has relatives. Others can't do anything to her, but they will hurt her relatives. She nodded slightly and took back the Qianye Sword. He smiled, raised his eyebrows and asked: "So, your master, in fact, doesn't exist at all, right?" If such a master really exists, it is impossible that there is no clue at all. She nodded happily and admitted, "It really doesn't exist, I made it up." "That's right." Xie Cheng chuckled, "Who would have thought that you would have such a big secret?" Before, he always believed that she had an almighty master. If it weren't for that time, his willpower was strong, perhaps he didn't know that the little girl had such a shocking secret. "I will only tell you one person!" Tang Xi leaned on his shoulder and whispered. "Don't worry, the heavens and the earth know, you know and I know." He would never let a third person know. Of course, whether the third person knows or not is not up to him, but up to the little girl herself. Tang Xi curled her lips and smiled. She thought that he should be trustworthy. Xie Cheng tilted his head to look at her head and whispered: "Perhaps, you can consider training a group of people yourself." "I have had this idea." She sat up straight and said with some embarrassment: "It's just that I don't know where to find people." Moreover, it seems difficult to find people who absolutely obey your orders. Xie Cheng smiled and stood up, "Come with me." "Where are you going?" She looked up at him puzzledly. Xie Cheng: "You will know after you leave." Tang Xi: "But, my shop just opened today..." "Anyway, it's closed, it's not too late to open it when you come back." He said, pulling her up. In the end, Tang Xi had no choice but to close the door of the shop and leave with him. She was taken into a ruin not far from Chengnan Street. There were dilapidated and collapsed tile houses everywhere, which were now covered with white snow. The air seemed to be filled with the smell of rotten wood. "What are we doing here?" It didn't look like anyone lived here. "We'll know in a moment." Xie Cheng smiled mysteriously and pulled her forward. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 333 The Abandoned Child "Boss, Xiaoqi is sick. How about we go to the pharmacy to get some medicine?" As soon as we approached a tiled house that was still relatively intact, we heard a worried voice coming from inside. "Beg?" The young man's sneer came over, "We've been begging for two days, and the food is not enough to fill our stomachs, let alone medicine." "Then what should we do now?" The tender voice choked with sobs: "If we don't take the medicine, Brother Qi will die." Another young man sighed: "It's a pity that those people are unwilling to accept us, otherwise, we would have the strength to do hard labor." Only to hear a little girl gritted her teeth and said: "I'll go beg for medicine. If I can't get it, I'll find a way to steal it. We can't let Xiaoqi die like this." "No!" The young man who was originally called the boss said: "Do you know what medicine he needs to take? Go and steal it. What if you steal some other medicine and bring it back, won't it harm him?" "The boss is right, Xiaowu, you'd better not go, let's think of a way." "Or, let's go find that person for help? Didn't he say that he lives in Xie's house? He is so kind, he will definitely help us!" Hearing this, Tang Xi looked at Xie Cheng in confusion, "Who are they?" "They are a group of abandoned little beggars who gathered together. I didn't know it before." Xie Cheng said in a calm voice: "However, I often see Mo Yi coming here. I asked and found out that there is a group of little beggars living here. In order not to be bullied by other beggars, they can only huddle together for warmth. There seem to be more than a dozen people, and the oldest is only fifteen." Tang Xi suddenly realized when she heard it, "Do you want me to train this group of children?" "Yes." Xie Cheng nodded, "They are all people who have suffered for their lives. Such people, as long as they are guaranteed to survive, they can serve you for a lifetime." "Among your shadow guards, are some of them also from such children?" Tang Xi asked. "It should be said that most of them are." Xie Cheng said: "Mo Yi and Mo Qing are also, they were brought back from the streets by their father." "Mo Yi and Mo Qing?" Tang Xi was surprised, "Since they were brought back by the former city lord, why is Mo Qing..." She stopped halfway through her words. She thought Xie Cheng should understand her doubts. Sure enough, he whispered, "At that time, Chen Luo and I were both studying and practicing martial arts with Teacher Lou in Hanshui City. After Mo Yi and Mo Qing entered Xie's house, they also followed us as companions. My father saw that they were hardworking and willing to endure hardships, and thought they were promising talents. At that time, we didn't have a decent follower, so my father decided to let Mo Qing follow Chen Luo, and Mo Yi follow me." Tang Xi felt very sad after hearing this. It seemed that the relationship between the two families was as close as a family before, so how could they become enemies in the end? "Who is outside?" The boy's cold voice came from the house, and then a ping-pong sound rang out. The two looked up and saw a group of half-grown children, some moving stones, some moving stools, some holding sticks, and even some holding broken pots and bowls. A group of people stood at the door, staring at them defensively. Tang Xi: ... "Are you... City Lord Xie?" The leading boy was about fourteen or fifteen years old. Even though he was wearing dirty clothes, his little face was very clean. At this moment, he was staring at Xie Cheng in surprise. "City Lord?" The other children looked at Xie Cheng in surprise. Xie Cheng glanced at them calmly, nodded to the boy and said calmly: "It's me." "What are you... doing here?" The boy's eyes were full of confusion. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 334 Conditions Xie Cheng said calmly: "I'll take you away from here." "Take us away?" A light flashed across the boy's originally dim eyes, and he subconsciously asked: "What do you mean?" Xie Cheng did not answer the boy's question, but looked at Tang Xi and asked in a low voice: "What do you think?" Tang Xi was a little embarrassed, "But I don't have a place to accommodate them for the time being, and... I don't have time to teach them." As for martial arts... she can't teach herself well, how can she teach others? "You don't have to worry about this." Xie Cheng smiled slightly, "I'll help you find someone." "Really?" Tang Xi's eyes lit up slightly, "That's great." "As for the place..." Xie Cheng looked around and said calmly: "I think this place is good, hidden, and few people will set foot here." "Is this place okay?" Tang Xi frowned slightly. Xie Cheng nodded slightly and whispered, "Sure, I'll help you find someone to renovate it and give them a place to live. When you learn something useful in the future, we can make other plans." "Okay!" Tang Xi said, "I'll pay for everything." Xie Cheng chuckled, knowing that she didn't want to trouble him too much, so he could only nod helplessly. "Boss, what are they talking about?" Xiao Wu looked at the boy in confusion. The boy shook his head, "I don't know." Tang Xi took a few steps forward and smiled at the children. "I came here today because I want to train a group of people. Thank you, City Lord, for recommending you to me." Seeing that the children were still confused, she could only continue to explain, "What I mean is, I want to be your master." Among the children, those who understood instantly turned cold. Xiao Wu said angrily, "Don't even think about it!" "That's right! Although we are beggars, we will never be slaves or be beaten or scolded by others." Tang Xi smiled slightly, "Of course, if you don't want to, I won't force you." I thought no one would agree, but who would have thought that the leading boy asked, "What's the benefit for us to follow you?" Tang Xi smiled instantly when he heard this. Asking this showed that he was moved. "Boss!" The few people who understood looked at him in shock. Xiaowu said with red eyes: "Boss, didn't you say that we would rather beg than be controlled by others?" The boy sneered, "Xiaoqi is going to die, what dignity can we talk about? In this world, the only thing that matters is to survive." "Boss, you have changed!" The boy, who was about thirteen or fourteen years old, looked at him with disappointment. The boy was unmoved, but stared at Tang Xi and said, "Please tell me." Tang Xi nodded, "The benefit is that I will hire someone to teach you to read and practice martial arts, and I will also distribute monthly allowances to you. Of course, you will no longer be hungry and cold, and you will no longer be afraid of getting sick and having no one to treat you." "Of course," she hooked her lips and said, "You must obey my orders and obey absolutely." "Okay." The boy nodded and said, "It doesn't matter if they don't want to, I am willing, but I have a condition." Tang Xi nodded, "You say." The boy said, "I want you to help me find a doctor." Tang Xi raised his eyebrows, "You mean, you want to save that Xiaoqi?" "Yes." The boy nodded. Tang Xi smiled slightly, "Take me in to have a look." "Follow me," the young man said, dropping the stick in his hand and walking inside. Tang Xi and Xie Cheng looked at each other, and the two followed in. The others looked at each other, and hurried to follow. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 335 Shen Yu What surprised Tang Xi was that she thought the house would be messy, but unexpectedly, it was tidy inside. A boy about ten years old was lying on the ground covered with straw with his eyes closed. There was a fire next to him. Next to the fire, there was a half-broken pottery basin. Tang Xi squatted down and touched the boy's forehead. A burning sensation instantly spread to the back of her hand. The boy said in a calm voice: "He had a fever last night. It was very severe." "What's your name?" Tang Xi looked back at him. The boy: "Shen Yu." "Shen Yu? Shen Yu's frustrated Shen Yu?" Tang Xi asked. The boy: "Yes!" Tang Xi nodded slightly and whispered: "Go and get me a basin of water. It needs to be cool." "Yes!" After Shen Yu agreed, he took the broken pottery basin and went out. Tang Xi glanced at the others, but was puzzled to find that there were only nine people in total, including Shen Yu and the child lying on the ground, but Xie Cheng clearly said that there were more than a dozen people. "Your other friends haven't come back yet?" She looked at them and asked. A five-year-old child answered obediently, "My brothers have all gone out to find food." He was wearing thin clothes, his nose was red, and he was still running. Tang Xi's heart softened when he saw this, and his voice became much softer unconsciously, "How did you find this place?" "The eldest brought us here." This time, it was the little girl named Xiao Wu who answered. The little girl's hair was a little messy, but her face was clean. She seemed to have not let down her guard against them, and her tone of voice was a little stiff. "The water is here." Shen Yu came back with a basin of water after a while. Tang Xi was surprised, "Where did you get the water?" Shen Yu: "There is a deep well in the backyard." No wonder it was so fast. Tang Xi took the broken pottery basin, took out a handkerchief, put it in the basin to soak it, then wrung out the water and applied it to the boy's forehead. "You..." Xiao Wu frowned, "He has a fever, and the water is cold." Although the well water is not colder than snow water, it is also cold water. "Just need cold water." Tang Xi said, took out a silver ingot, handed it to Shen Yu and said, "Go to Jimin Hall and say that you want to prescribe medicine for fever." Shen Yu nodded, "Yes!" "I'll go." Xie Cheng said in a calm voice. When they came, they did not take a carriage, but walked. It seemed that they were not far away. Xie Cheng knew Qinggong, so it would be faster to go back and forth. Tang Xi nodded, "Okay." "Wait for me to come back." After he said that, he stood up and strode out. "City Lord, silver!" Shen Yu took the ten taels of silver and chased out. However, when he arrived at the door, he only had time to see the white figure blending into the snow. He was stunned, and a trace of envy flashed in his eyes. "Is this Qinggong?" He murmured in a low voice. He remembered that the person who often came to see them was Lord Xie's subordinate, Lord Moyi. That person's Qinggong was also very powerful, and he always came and went without a trace. He sighed softly, went back into the house, and handed the silver back to Tang Xi, "Miss, this is your silver." The others stared at the silver and swallowed unconsciously. Ten taels of silver, they usually go out to beg, and only have a few dozen coins a day. Ten taels of silver, who knows how many meat buns they can buy. Tang Xi glanced at him and said in a low voice: "You take it first." The eyes of the others lit up when they heard it, but Shen Yu frowned slightly. He was silent for a moment, and hurriedly bowed his hand to agree. Seeing that it was almost done, Tang Xi took off the handkerchief, continued to soak it in the basin, and then wrung it dry and applied it. About a quarter of an hour later, Xie Cheng returned to the ruins with a few prescriptions. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 336: No Special Treatment Tang Xi personally prepared the medicine. Xiao Wu was supposed to prepare it, but Shen Yu was afraid that she couldn't control the heat, so when Tang Xi said she wanted to prepare it, he agreed. A little bit of Lingquan was dripped into it, not too much, but it was still very effective in reducing fever. The little boy's fever subsided soon after taking the medicine, and he finally woke up. Although his face was still pale, he was fine after all. "Boss!" The boy's eyes were on Shen Yu for the first time. Shen Yu stepped forward, gave him a stiff smile, and helped him up. The boy then turned his eyes to Tang Xi and Xie Cheng, his eyes full of confusion. "Hurry up and thank the benefactor." Shen Yu said in a calm voice. "Xiao Qi, thank the benefactor!" Although he didn't know what happened, he thanked him when the boss asked him to. Tang Xi smiled and nodded slightly at Xiao Qi. Shen Yu smiled indifferently. He didn't seem to like to laugh very much. When he laughed, he always felt a little forced. He said to Xiao Qi, "I might leave here. Are you willing to go with me?" "Go?" Xiao Qi was puzzled. "Where to go?" Shen Yu: "Leave with the benefactor." Tang Xi raised his eyebrows and was about to explain, but then he heard Xiao Qi say, "Wherever the boss goes, Xiao Qi will go." He was brought back by Shen Yu, and he usually sticks to him, so he almost obeys Shen Yu's words. "Good boy!" Shen Yu gently rubbed his head. "Then the other brothers, brothers and sisters won't leave?" Xiao Qi was puzzled. "They..." Shen Yu looked at Xiao Wu and the others, "They won't leave." "Why? Sister Xiao Wu won't go with us?" "I..." Xiao Wu looked at Shen Yu, then looked at Tang Xi, and finally whispered, "I am willing to go too." Shen Yu's eyes were very calm, and there was no surprise on his face, as if he had expected this result. Seeing that Xiao Wu also agreed, the others naturally agreed one after another. After all, Shen Yu was their backbone. Once Shen Yu left, those people would not let them go. Here, only Shen Yu knows some leg skills, so he can control other beggars. If it weren't for Shen Yu, even if they could beg for money, it would only go into other beggars' pockets in the end. Tang Xi raised her eyebrows in surprise, and she asked: "How many people haven't come back yet?" "There are still five people who haven't come back yet." Shen Yu said: "It depends on the time. They should be back soon." As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of stepping on the snow outside, as well as the depressed voices of the teenagers. "Alas - today we only got a few oil cakes and thirty coins, which are not enough for Xiaoqi's medicine." "Wait until noon to beg again. The oil cakes will be distributed to the younger brothers and sisters. It won't be a problem for us to go hungry for a meal." "We're back." Shen Yu said in a calm voice. "Boss, we're back!" The first one to call for help was a teenager who was about the same age as Shen Yu. He was wearing patched rags, his face was painted dirty, but his hands were already red from the cold. He was followed by four teenagers of similar age. After entering the room, they were all stunned when they saw Tang Xi and Xie Cheng, and then they looked at Shen Yu at the same time. "This is Xiao Qi's benefactor, and also..." Shen Yu said, looking at Tang Xi and Xie Cheng, and repeated their purpose and the benefits and conditions given by Tang Xi. After that, he said in a calm voice: "We all agreed." The young man who came in first said: "We all listen to the boss. Since everyone has agreed, we will naturally not make any special arrangements." The other four also nodded in agreement. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 337 Shen Yu's Family Feud Tang Xi heard this and smiled, "That's easy, but I have something to say to you." "Please go ahead!" Shen Yu said respectfully. "You fourteen people, maybe not everyone will meet my standards." The children were all stunned when they heard this, and they all looked at Shen Yu nervously. "Girl, what do you mean?" Shen Yu was puzzled. Xie Cheng understood what Tang Xi meant, so he explained in a calm voice: "Not everyone is qualified to practice martial arts, and being able to endure hardship does not mean that you can practice martial arts." "Boss, in case we are not suitable, you will..." Before the young man finished speaking, he heard Tang Xi say: "But don't worry, as long as he is not a bad person , I will accept him." "Don't worry about that!" Shen Yu said, "I won't help people with bad hearts." Tang Xi nodded, "You will live here for the time being. I will find someone to repair it here. Don't worry, I will send you food, clothing and daily necessities before today, but..." She looked at Shen Yu and said, "Before sending anything, you have to write your name and sign it." As she spoke, she reached into the cloth bag, took out a piece of paper, picked up a piece of cold charcoal near the fire, pulled a small stool over, and began to write on the paper with charcoal. She listed her conditions, restrictions and benefits for them on the paper one by one, and then handed it to Shen Yu and said, "Take a look. If you have no objection, let everyone sign and seal it." Shen Yu was surprised, "How do you know I can read?" Tang Xi smiled, "Even Shen Yu knows the pauses, so I think he should not be illiterate." Moreover, he is different from other children. He has a firm mind and decisive actions. It can be seen that he is not a child from an ordinary family. Shen Yu did not expect that the future young master, who looked older than himself, would be so careful. He did not say anything else, but took the paper from her hand and read it carefully. Tang Xi said, "This is temporary. There is no pen and ink at the moment, so I can only write it with charcoal. When I go back, I will write another one. Each of you will have a copy. Then, sign and seal it again." "Can I make a request?" Shen Yu suggested after reading it. Tang Xi nodded, "You say." "I still have a family feud to avenge. Can I take revenge in the future?" After all, after signing this contract, they are bound by constraints. "You have a family feud?" Xie Cheng frowned. Shen Yu said respectfully, "Don't worry, City Lord. Those people are not big shots. They are just some small people in our Shen family." Xie Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly, "Are you from the Shen family in North City Street?" "Exactly!" Shen Yu nodded. "If I remember correctly, Shen Cong is the head of the family now. Since you are from the Shen Mansion, is there any grievance that you can't tell him?" He remembered that Shen Cong was a good person and was quite kind. Shen Yu clenched his fists, his eyes red, and said, "He... didn't know about this. Everyone in the Shen Mansion thought I was dead." "Who are you to Shen Cong?" Xie Cheng asked. "Shen Cong is my uncle. My father passed away early, and only my mother and I depended on each other. When my uncle was still in Hanshui City, we lived very well. Until one time, he went to Beijing for business. Some people in the mansion poisoned our food and set fire to the yard where my mother and I lived. In the end, I was rescued by a passerby, but my mother was not saved." (End of this chapter)
Chapter 338 You can go anywhere "Do you know who did it?" Xie Cheng asked again. "I know!" Shen Yu's clenched fist made a "clucking" sound, "It was Tu, my good aunt." "Tu? Shen Cong's wife?" Xie Cheng was surprised. "That's right." Shen Yu held back her tears and said coldly: "It was she who instructed the kitchen steward to poison our food, and she also ordered someone to set the fire." "How do you know?" Tang Xi asked indifferently. At that time, the person who rescued me took me to the back of her yard. I heard it with my own ears. "In this case, why don't you go back and expose her?" Xie Cheng felt that with Shen Cong's personality, he should not cover up Tu. "At that time, the person who rescued me happened to pass by carrying a corpse. After he rescued me, he threw the corpse in. Now, even my uncle thinks I am gone. I want to expose her, but I have no evidence. However, I know why she wants to kill us." "Why?" Everyone looked at him puzzled. "She had a lover. One time, when the two of them were having a tryst in the backyard of the Shen Mansion, they were seen by my mother. She cried and begged my mother not to tell my uncle, saying that she was just confused for a moment. My mother saw her crying so hard and thought that she was truly repentant, so she agreed to her request. Who knew..." At the end, he gritted his teeth. "How did you know about this?" Tang Xi felt that a mother was discussing such an issue with her son. Shen Yu said: "The person who saved me told me. He said that he passed by Feng Mansion before and happened to hear it." "So, what does the person who saved you look like?" Xie Cheng raised his eyebrows and asked. Shen Yu hesitated and said, "He... looks OK, dressed like a scholar, tall and thin, and very good at Qinggong. I asked him why he was there, and he said that he wanted to go to Feng Mansion to steal some hundred-year-old ginseng." Tang Xi's mouth twitched slightly, "Was it a few months ago?" "Yeah!" Shen Yu nodded, "It was around the end of August. At that time, there was also a rapist incident." Tang Xi and Xie Cheng looked at each other, and a person's face appeared in their minds. Passing by Feng Mansion, and wanting to steal a hundred-year-old ginseng, who else could it be except Hua Xuan? "You... do you know him?" Shen Yu's eyes lit up. Xie Cheng shook his head, "No." Tang Xi glanced at him with amusement, "So, what do you want to do?" Shen Yu said coldly, "I want Tu's life to pay for his life!" Xie Cheng said in a calm voice, "Leave it to me." "Leave it to you?" Shen Yu looked at him in confusion. "I am the mayor of the city. Since I know that my citizens are in trouble, I will naturally take care of it." Shen Yu's eyes lit up, "Then can you bring that evil woman to justice for me and let her pay with her life?" Xie Cheng pondered, "Don't you think that it is more satisfying to deal with such a person and make her live a life worse than death?" Shen Yu was silent for a moment, and finally shook his head, "I just want to avenge my mother." Xie Cheng said in a light voice: "I will explain it to your uncle, but... don't you plan to go back to the Shen family?" Shen Cong and him are still somewhat friendly. "Not going back." Shen Yu smiled bitterly, "There is nothing worth staying there." When his mother was still alive, he could still endure those contemptuous eyes for his mother. Now that his mother is gone, why should he stay? Besides, to the people in the Shen Mansion, he is just a dead man now. Tang Xi said: "Have you thought about it? As the son of the Shen family, do you really want to work for others?" "I have thought about it a long time ago." He said in a light voice: "As long as I don't go back to the Shen Mansion, I can go anywhere." (End of this chapter)
Chapter 339: The Dead Warrior After coming out of the ruins, Tang Xi glanced at the dense signatures on the paper in her hand and couldn't help but smile. Xie Cheng lowered his eyes and looked at her fair face. After a moment, he said, "I just checked for you. There are only two or three who are suitable for martial arts." "Ah?" She was stunned. "Can't the others practice martial arts?" Xie Cheng shook his head slightly. "Not really, but they may have eaten less for a long time and their bodies are too weak. Unless they are nourished later, it is not suitable for them." "That's not bad!" Tang Xi breathed a sigh of relief. "With me here, they will definitely be able to practice martial arts." She has a spiritual spring that can improve their physical fitness. "Now, do you want to go back to the shop directly, or go buy things?" Xie Cheng asked. "Let's go buy some things first." She whispered, "The children are still young, so we have to buy them some bedding and winter clothes first, and then buy them some delicious food. Tomorrow morning, we will send someone to repair it again..." "Be careful!" Before she finished her words, several arrows had already broken through the air from the opposite side of them, and Xie Cheng almost subconsciously threw her down. The two of them fell on the snow together, and the arrows flew forward and finally nailed to the snow not far away. Xie Cheng was about to get up, but he didn't expect that a few more arrows flew over. He turned over and rolled twice on the snow holding Tang Xi. The arrows shot directly at where they were lying. Tang Xi quickly climbed up from him, and the two of them didn't care about anything else and ran forward directly. Behind the small snow slope not far away, several men in black drew their bows and arrows again, but unexpectedly, the people had disappeared. "Where are they?" One of them asked in confusion, and the other three also leaned their heads out, but they didn't expect that the two who were still on the snow just now were now silent. "Are you looking for us?" A faint voice came from behind the few people. They were so scared that they loosened their hands and shot the arrows in their hands. They turned around in horror and saw two people, one indifferent and the other looking at them with a smile. "You... when did you..." Before the man could finish his words, Xie Cheng had already raised his knife and the blood gradually stained the snow into a small red. The others were horrified and were about to put arrows on their bows, but the two did not give them any chances. Xie Cheng squatted down and looked at the four corpses, and said in a cold voice: "They should have followed me." If they had followed before, it would be impossible for them to take action at this time. Tang Xi sighed lightly and said: "Their target seems to be me." Just now, those arrows were almost all aimed at her position. Who exactly wants to kill her? Xie Cheng put away the dagger and squatted down. He searched the bodies and finally shook his head. "No clues." Tang Xi was puzzled. "Why didn't you leave anyone alive just now?" "They won't tell. There's no point in leaving them alive." "Why won't they tell?" "Look here." Xie Cheng turned the body over and pointed at the back of the black-clothed man's ear. Tang Xi looked down and found that there was a green star-shaped pattern behind the ear. "What is this?" She was curious. Xie Cheng: "This is the symbol of the Canglan Kingdom's death warriors." "The symbol of the Canglan Kingdom's death warriors?" Tang Xi was surprised. "Then can't you tell which family's death warriors they are?" "I can't tell, but..." Xie Cheng suddenly sneered, "I think I probably know who sent them." In Hanshui City, except for the Xie Mansion and a few large families, the rest of the people are not allowed to raise death warriors, nor can they afford to raise them. And Tang Xi has no grudges with people from other families. Those people will not attack without reason. The only possibility is the Anyang Palace. (End of this chapter)
Chapter 340 He Won't Marry You "Could it be that Prince Anyang wants to kill me? No!" Tang Xi shook her head slightly, "It should be Princess Hanrong." Xie Cheng nodded, "This is very likely." Tang Xi: "I suddenly agree with what my cousin Zi Teng said." Xie Cheng was puzzled, "Huh?" She pursed her lips and smiled, "Blue-faced men are the root of trouble." Xie Cheng smiled lightly, he took out the corpse powder and disposed of the four corpses on the ground. Not long after the two left, the Prince Anyang's mansion was in an uproar. "Pa——" A loud slap sounded from the study, and the people guarding outside the door trembled. "Sister!" Prince Fan was shocked and reached out to help the person up, but was stopped by Prince Anyang with his eyes. "I don't know what my daughter did wrong? Why did my father treat me like this?" Hanrong looked at Prince Anyang in disbelief with tears in her eyes. "Don't you know what you did?" Prince Anyang snorted coldly, "Father has warned you a long time ago not to ruin his good deeds. Look at what you have done?" "I don't understand what father is saying." "You still dare to quibble?" Prince Anyang was furious and raised his hand to slap her again. Prince Fan hurried forward to persuade her, "Father, calm down. I wonder what my sister did wrong?" He had just come back from outside and heard the servants in the mansion say that Han Rong was brought here. He was a little curious, so he wanted to come over to ask what was going on. Who knew that as soon as he came in, his father had already taken action. "What did you do wrong? Ask her yourself what good things she has done." Prince Anyang turned away in anger. "Sister, what did you do? Why did you make father so angry?" Han Rong avoided his gaze guiltily and said nothing. Zuo An walked forward and said calmly, "You don't know, my prince, the princess stole the prince's order for the death squad and sent four death squads to assassinate Tang Xi." "Tang Xi?" Prince Fan couldn't remember who Tang Xi was. Zuo An reminded him, "Yes, the little genius doctor." "It turned out to be her!" Prince Fan frowned and looked at Han Rong and said, "Sister, why are you so confused? If you want to kill her, you can kill her when she is alone, but now, she and Xie Cheng are inseparable, you..." Prince Fan wanted to continue, but when he saw her face, he stopped. "Inseparable?" Han Rong sneered, and laughed to the end, tears flowed out. Prince Fan knew that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly tried to comfort her, "Sister, there are so many outstanding men in this world, you don't have to bother with Xie Cheng." "I just want to marry him!" She looked at King Anyang with a sinister look, and said coldly, "Father, you want me to marry Qu Jing. Unless I die, I will not marry anyone except Xie Cheng!" "Humph!" King Anyang sneered, "Do you think he will marry you if you want to?" "Why not?" She smiled, her expression close to madness, and said, "As long as that little bitch Tang Xi dies, he will marry me." King Anyang had a headache, "He will never marry you in this life. He never thought of marrying you from the beginning. Why are you doing this?" "He will marry me, he will definitely marry me!" She laughed almost crazily, "He used to be very nice to me, and Old Lady Xie also liked me very much!" At this point, her expression returned to a cold and gloomy state again, "It's all because of Tang Xi. If it weren't for her appearance, how could he treat me like this? I want to kill Tang Xi, I want to kill her?" Prince Anyang sighed helplessly and said to the outside of the door, "Come on, take her away. This time, whoever dares to come and beg for mercy again will be confined to reflect on his mistakes." Prince Fan, who wanted to speak, shut up instantly. Because, Han Rong was able to come out last time because of his begging. (End of this chapter)
