Under One Person: I am the Master of Maoshan

When Shen Yan and the others saw the children of the Wang family waiting at the entrance of the village, they all got off the carriage and walked forward. Lu Ci saw Wang Ai in the crowd at a glance, and excitedly waved his hands and shouted loudly.

"Fatty! I'm here!"

"hedgehog!"

Wang Ai trotted over like a meatball, and when he got close, he hugged Lu Ci. Neither of them could be called good people in the future, but their friendship in their youth was real. As the old saying goes, Qin Hui still has three or five close friends, let alone others.

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time since they parted at the Lu family compound, but they started reminiscing about the past regardless of others.

Seeing this, Lu Ren coughed lightly, and Lu Ci then took Wang Ai and introduced him to everyone: "This is the only son of the current head of the Wang family, my good brother Wang Ai."

Wang Ai cupped his chubby hands, squinted his eyes and greeted everyone with a friendly face.

"Brother Lu, long time no see"

Lu Ren nodded and prepared to introduce Shen Yan to him, but before he could say anything, Wang Ai came up to Shen Yan.

"You must be Brother Shen Yan, right?"

Shen Yan also clasped his hands and said, "I am Shen Yan, hello, Brother Wang."

Wang Ai's facial features were squeezed together, and he smiled even more happily. He bowed to the ground in front of Shen Yan: "Brother Shen, I have admired you for a long time. I have kept every copy of your deeds in the newspaper. I am looking forward to meeting you one day. My father also told me to learn more from you."

"Brother Wang, you are too polite. Please stand up." Shen Yan supported his arm and helped him up.

He couldn't help but sigh that none of the people from the four families were simple characters, including Lu Ren, Lu Jin, Lu Ci, and Wang Ai in front of him.

If Shen Yan had not learned the art of physiognomy and knew what kind of person Wang Ai was, he would have been fooled by his naive appearance. This chubby face was indeed approachable, but there was a hint of shrewdness and calculation between his eyes and eyebrows.

Wang Ai waved his fat hand in front of his head and led everyone into the Wang family compound.

Walking into the Wang Family Courtyard, a scent of ink and medicine entered his nostrils. Shen Yan looked around and found that almost every household had a large water tank in front of the door for washing inkstones and brushes. The inside was dyed black with ink.

Wang Ai led everyone to a house in the center of the village. The house was ancient and looked like it had existed for more than a hundred years. In the courtyard, there were many big trees. It was just the beginning of winter and the leaves on the ground were all yellow. Several servants were cleaning.

The head of the Wang family came out in person to greet them, and everyone was smiling happily when he saw Shen Yan.

"Junior Shen Yan meets uncle"

"Lü Ren (Lü Ci) meets uncle"

Shen Yan's Baicaotang and the Wang family have close business dealings. Every year, the Wang family orders a large amount of herbs from Baicaotang for making ink. However, Shen Yan's business has no intersection with his family's, so this is also the first time he has met the head of the Wang family.

"Okay, nephew Shen, this is the first time that we two have met. You have to stay a few more days this time, so that I won't be unable to explain to your father when I see him in the future. Come in, come in."

After saying that, he took Shen Yan's arm and invited everyone into the living room. After everyone sat down, the housekeeper brought people to serve tea to everyone and then retreated behind the head of the Wang family.

"My dear nephew, I met with your father a few days ago. I heard that you were ambushed by the Japanese aliens and were seriously injured. How is your health now? Is it serious?"

"Thank you for your concern, uncle. I have thick skin and this minor injury has healed long ago. This is a letter from Uncle Lu to you." Shen Yan took out the letter from his arms and handed it to him with both hands.

Patriarch Wang took it with a smile and nodded: "That's good. You must be careful on the battlefield in the future."

Patriarch Wang was chatting with a few people, and Shen Yan felt very comfortable chatting with him. It was different from Patriarch Lu's straightforwardness.

The head of the Wang family gave people a kind of friendly feeling. Perhaps this was the reason why the Wang family, although not very powerful, was able to attract many extraordinary people and become one of the four great families.

But at this time, a member of the Wang family outside the door looked inside in panic, and the housekeeper came out of the living room to ask. Not long after, the housekeeper returned and whispered a few words in the ear of the head of the Wang family.

Patriarch Wang's brows were furrowed, and there was a murderous look in his eyes! After a moment, he smiled again, but anyone could see that he was forcing a smile.

"My dear nephew, something has happened to your uncle. How about you take a rest first, and we can talk about other things after I finish this?"

Shen Yan stood up and bowed, asking, "Uncle, please forgive me for being so rude. I see that you look a little strange. Can you tell me what happened? If there is anything I can do to help, I will do my part as a family."

Lu Ren also stood up and said, "Yes, Uncle Wang, if there is anything, we, the younger generation, must also contribute."

The head of the Wang family sighed and said, "Alas, you should know that there is a deep hatred between my Wang family and Quan Xing's Wu Man. I originally thought that he would no longer appear in the martial arts world, so I stopped looking for him, but he actually dared to appear in southern Henan. He simply didn't take my Wang family seriously!"

More than ten years ago, the unknown lay Buddhist Wu Man became a monk three times and returned to secular life three times. For some reason, he had a dispute with the Wang family and killed several uncles of the head of the Wang family. The two sides had an irreconcilable hatred.

"Uncle, now that we know about this, we can't just stand by and watch. I'm willing to go with you and do my best to help!"

Shen Yan knew that there would be no fight this time. Wu Man should be here to repay a debt, so he was willing to gain favor with the Wang family in order to win over the Wang family to his side.

Although the four families are of the same origin, and the Lu and Lu families are on his side, no matter how much he does to improve his favorability, it is never too much.

"How can this be possible? My dear nephew, you just arrived at my Wang family and haven't even had a bite of food yet. How can I let you take risks? Wu Man is not easy to deal with. If something goes wrong, how will I explain to your father in the future?"

"Uncle, you are being too polite. Although I am young, I still have the means to protect myself. Lu Ren and I can help you."

Patriarch Wang thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let's go together and meet this Quan Xing monster."

After Patriarch Wang finished speaking, he asked the butler to gather his brothers, and then went to the back of the village to report to his father, Patriarch Wang, about Wu Man's appearance.

Shen Yan also took this time to make arrangements for everyone, only taking Lu Ren and Cheng Zhen with him, while the others stayed at Wang's house waiting.

“I’ll go too.”

"no!"

Gong Er was afraid that Shen Yan might be in danger, so she wanted to follow him, but Shen Yan refused, even though there was a high probability that he would not be in danger this time.

But who knows if there will be other changes? Wu Man is also one of the best in the whole world. Once something changes, it will be difficult for me to take care of others. Lu Ren and Wu Chengzhen's cultivation is much higher than everyone else, so I feel relieved to take them with me.

This time, Lu Ci did not make a fuss about going. He knew that someone like Wu Man was not someone he could deal with, and if he went, he would only cause trouble for others.

Seeing Shen Yan's tough attitude, Gong Er took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and handed the Wu Dou Kai to him.

"Take this with you, be careful"

Shen Yan nodded, took the Wu Dou Kai and attached it to his wrist.

After the three of them were ready, they joined up with the Wang family's main force and left the village under the leadership of the head of the Wang family. Everyone used their own methods to rush to a nearby high mountain.

When they arrived at the destination, Shen Yan looked up at the top of the mountain and saw an old man sitting cross-legged with his hands clasped together and his eyes closed.

Several masters of the Wang family surrounded Wu Man in a moment, but Wu Man had no intention of taking action and continued to sit quietly there.

"Wu Man! I've been looking for you for so many years, and you finally showed up. Today I'm going to avenge my uncles."

Patriarch Wang walked towards Wu Man as he spoke. Wu Man opened her eyes and slowly stood up. She clasped her hands together and bowed to Patriarch Wang.

"Donor Wang, I have been waiting for you for a long time. This time I came here to repay my debt to your Wang family."

When he raised his head, everyone looked into his eyes with secret surprise.
