Doomsday: Gain experience by hunting
#157 - Being your servant is their blessing.
The road became more and more familiar.
Tang Wen remembered, wasn't this the road he took when he sent the little girl, Lu Yu, home that day?
The person who suggested coming here introduced:
"...The people who live there are also members of our gang. A few years ago, they encountered an attack in the wild and were poisoned with a strange toxin. They struggled to be brought back, and have been lying there ever since."
Wu Hao didn't know the details and asked curiously, "What level are they? Has the gang been supporting them all along?"
The person paused, "Just an ordinary martial artist, like me, a squad leader. Back then, the gang said they would support him for five years. Counting the days, it's almost up."
Tang Wen frowned after hearing this, "We're here to make money, but we can't violate the gang's taboos."
Driving out a senior member of the gang and seizing their home.
If they did something like that, their reputations would be ruined.
Wu Hao also frowned.
He didn't want to do that either.
The person quickly shook his head, "I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare! I managed land deeds in the gang for a few days. If I remember correctly, there are still two or three months left before the five years are up. When that time comes, the whole family will have to move out of this yard."
Someone next to him also said:
"Two leaders, you haven't been in Ganshan City for very long. Actually, even if we drive them out now, no one would say anything. If we give his wife and children some money, they would be grateful! Everyone in the gang would say we're benevolent."
Wu Hao nodded.
Tang Wen didn't know what to say.
In Flame Camp, the camp would support someone like that for life.
Their family's fields wouldn't have to pay rent.
The children would learn to read and practice martial arts, and not only would they not have to pay tuition, but they would also be provided with food and clothing until they were fifteen.
As they were talking, the group came to a secluded street and turned into a small alley.
Tang Wen remembered that the alley led to the place where the mother and daughter lived.
"Come out!"
"Your man owes me money, pay up!"
Just as the group was about to exit the alley.
A man's unkind voice reached their ears.
Wu Hao clenched his fist, and a thin man in the group immediately dismounted and crept forward to check the situation.
Actually, even without him going, Tang Wen and the others understood the situation.
A childish rebuttal came:
"You're lying! My dad is lying in bed all day, how could he owe you money?"
Hearing this, Tang Wen and the others exchanged glances.
This is bad.
The girl fell for it.
As expected.
The man's voice immediately became arrogant, "Hehehe, so your man has been lying in bed all along! No wonder I've never seen him. Open the door, let me go in and see your dad."
The girl was anxious and afraid, "You, you, you..."
"You what, let me in, and I'll be your dad from now on!"
Girl: "We are people of the Blackwater Gang."
"Blackwater Gang? Stop trying to scare me with the Blackwater Gang. To tell you the truth, I've been eyeing you for several months..."
"Giddy up!"
Everyone looked back and saw that Tang Wen couldn't stand it anymore and immediately urged his horse forward.
It wasn't that he was reckless.
He had made a judgment. They were only a few dozen steps away from the exit of the alley at this time.
At this distance, the man was still knocking on the door.
Then there were only two possibilities. One, although the distance was not far, he still didn't hear it.
This shows that his strength was pitifully weak.
He could only bully the orphans and widows here.
Or, he didn't care and was a master.
But this possibility was very small.
He had already exposed himself in his words.
Exiting the alley, Tang Wen saw a tall, thin man blocking the door of a house.
"Who are you!" Tang Wen shouted.
The man turned his head and saw Tang Wen on horseback.
Without saying a word, he lowered his head and skillfully tried to slip away along the wall in the other direction.
"Stop!"
Tang Wen shouted.
The other party immediately ran away.
This guy was really something, he didn't even have the courage to ask who Tang Wen was, but he dared to bully people.
It seemed that, just like he said, he had come because he had set his sights on a pair of poor mother and daughter living here.
"Catch him!"
Tang Wen didn't chase.
But three or four brothers in the team, hearing the sound, chased after him.
They disappeared from Tang Wen's sight in a puff of smoke.
"Let's go, let's go take a look too."
Wu Hao called out.
The two rode their horses to catch up, but before they could run far.
A brother in front turned back to report, "Two leaders, he has been captured ahead."
So fast?
It was estimated that the other party was just a martial apprentice.
More than ten minutes later, the man was dragged back, looking like he had suffered a lot.
"What's the situation?"
"Hey! Just a petty thief."
With a thud, the brother who caught him lifted him up with one hand and slammed him hard on the ground.
Several mouthfuls of blood spurted out.
The master was struggling to kneel down: "My lord, spare me! Spare me! Please, just let me go!"
Tang Wen didn't speak, turned his head to look at the wooden door just now.
There were footsteps coming from inside.
The wooden door opened.
A mother and daughter walked out from inside. After seeing Tang Wen's face clearly, the mother and daughter knelt down and kowtowed to Tang Wen without saying a word: "Benefactor, please save us!"
"It really is you, get up and talk."
"Brother Tang, do you know each other?" Wu Hao asked.
Tang Wen casually said, "A few days ago, I saw that the little girl was pitiful, so I helped her out."
Wu Hao didn't ask any more questions.
At this time, the mother and daughter raised their heads.
Tang Wen frowned suddenly: This disguise is too fake.
Their faces were covered with a black like soot.
It was obvious that they had smeared it on first.
The woman, who was in her thirties, said, "My lord is kind, please help us again. I am willing to do anything to repay you."
"This is simple, kill him," Tang Wen said lightly.
The woman shivered and quickly waved her hand: "My lord, I'm not talking about killing people."
"Then what is it?"
The woman suddenly shed two lines of clear tears and said with a cry: "My husband died the night before yesterday, and the family has no money for burial. I want to ask the adults to give us some silver to bury my husband. I am willing to serve the adults as a slave!"
Shaking his head, Tang Wen was just about to give her silver directly.
Suddenly, he felt something was wrong.
This was not Flame Camp, or even the well-ordered Four Seas Camp.
This was Ganshan City, where everyone kept slaves.
He paused and said calmly:
"I helped you mother and daughter once. With your looks, I wouldn't have been interested in the first place. Seeing that you are pitiful, it just so happens that there is no one to serve me, so I will keep you."
"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"
The woman kowtowed repeatedly.
Tang Wen turned his head and took out twenty taels of silver notes and handed them to a person behind him: "Brother, thank you for your hard work, go find some people to handle the funeral and give him a decent one. After all, he was also a Blackwater Gang brother."
The mother and daughter on the ground cried and thanked him, and the mother and daughter hugged their heads and cried together.
The subordinates behind him did not take the silver notes, but sighed: "Leader Tang is really particular! You don't need to pay for this, I guarantee it will be done for you!"
Tang Wen shook his head: "One thing is one thing, after all, I still have to take them in as servants."
"It is their blessing to be your servants."
Wu Hao took over the conversation, and the subordinate, upon hearing this, no longer forced it, accepted the silver notes, and turned to find someone to go.
