Ruins of the past

Seeing Hao Yongnian leading people away, Wang Cailiang felt as if he had experienced a big battle. He relaxed instantly, then looked at Chu Qiguang and asked: "Brother Chu, are you okay?"

Chu Qiguang frowned and said, "The bones in my hand seem to be cracked."

"Why are you still standing there? Call the doctor and show him to Brother Chu." Wang Cailiang finished instructing his servants, then turned to comfort Chu Qiguang: "Oh, Brother Chu, it's me who has caused trouble for you this time. I'll prepare a banquet tonight to make amends for you. But I'm afraid I won't be able to avenge you."

Wang Cailiang shook his head. He knew that although Hao Yongnian was beating Chu Qiguang, he was the one he was beating.

Seeing that Chu Qiguang still frowned and showed no change, Wang Cailiang continued to persuade: "Do you know who hurt you? That is Hao Yongnian from the Hao family. His father is now the editor of the Hanlin Academy, and his grandfather Zeng Guanzhi Youdu Yushi, the Hao family is extremely powerful in Qingyang County."

"And this Hao Yongnian has a cruel temperament and is a famous evil star in Qingyang County. I heard that the maids and servants he beat to death every year are buried in his backyard." At this point, Wang Cailiang sighed repeatedly: "This Not every big shot in the county is as easy to talk to as Mr. Ding Daoxiao. This Hao Yongnian... can't be offended... can't be offended..."

Chu Qiguang glanced at him and said, "Then your Wang family still provokes them?"

"Why did our family offend them?" Wang Cailiang was full of grievances when he said this: "They were interested in the land where our family's ancestral tombs are, and they wanted to snatch it. Speaking of our family's ancestral tombs, Shang Jie Ri The moon and stars lead down to the spiritual veins of Qingyang County, backed by the majestic and beautiful peaks, and the mountains on both sides are like escorts. It is a first-rate auspicious hole, enough to protect Fuyin for future generations."

Chu Qiguang asked in confusion: "Spiritual veins?" Although he knew that many people in the world believed in Feng Shui, the concept of spiritual veins was something Chu Qiguang had never learned.

Wang Cailiang said in surprise: "Don't you know? The Meishan Mountain in the north of our Qingyang County is steep and beautiful. It originated from the Zulong Mountain thousands of miles away. The mountain is buckling and rolling, ups and downs, and there are also people on both sides to welcome, see off, pinch, and protect." The mountains that follow you are truly a blessed place for your spiritual veins.”

"Thanks to the protection of Tomei Mountain's spiritual veins, our Qingyang County has a strong martial arts movement. Every year there are high school graduates in the martial arts department. Currently, there are four or five retired Jinshi officials in the county."

Chu Qiguang nodded. Although he didn't understand much about Feng Shui and spiritual veins, he could understand that people in this feudal world believed in Feng Shui very much. In his opinion, the so-called spiritual vein theory was different from the previous one. The dragon veins of the world are almost the same.

Chu Qiguang thought in his mind: 'Spiritual veins and dragon veins have almost the same meaning, but the dragons in this world seem to have fought with humans, so some of the words are different. ’

After talking about the spiritual pulse, Wang Cailiang sighed again: "Sigh... Even though my father is unwilling in every possible way, but these days I have searched all the wealthy families in the county, but no one is willing to make peace for us. I'm afraid we have to hand over the land in the end. .”

Wang Cailiang comforted Chu Qiguang again. The doctor finally arrived, bandaged Chu Qiguang, prescribed medicine, and told him to have a good rest.

Finally, only Chu Qiguang and Qiao Zhi were left in the room. He said with a dark face, "Is there another thorn in my heart now?"

Qiao Zhi nodded helplessly: "Isn't this how ordinary people practice. They are always entangled in cause and effect, and their state of mind is never perfect. The longer time goes by, the more distracting thoughts will become, and they will never be able to concentrate on practice."

Chu Qiguang asked: "So the children of wealthy families not only have an advantage in money, but also have an advantage in mentality?"

Seeing Qiao Zhi nodding, Chu Qiguang touched his right arm and whispered: "It's not just my state of mind that affects me, right? The bone in my right hand is broken. How long will it take for me to resume martial arts practice with my current physique? "

Since Chu Qiguang started practicing martial arts, he has taken various dietary supplements and medicines, coupled with the Heavenly Demon Foundation Building Technique and martial arts training, his entire physique has improved by leaps and bounds, and is no longer the same as before.

Qiao Zhi assessed and said, "Your bone fracture is not serious. Wang Cailiang is willing to pay for it, and the medicine prescribed by the doctor is not bad. Coupled with your transformed physique after building the foundation, you can practice martial arts in ten days at most."

Seeing Chu Qiguang's face getting darker and darker, Qiao Zhi judged in his heart based on his rich experience: 'Swearing in front of someone's face... As long as Chu Qiguang is not sick, it will be fine. But if you use your hands to hurt someone, you will die. ’

He asked cautiously: "Are you planning to take revenge on Hao Yongnian?"

Chu Qiguang said: "You let the dog monsters keep an eye on him first. I want to know his whereabouts every day. Where is Big Head? Ask where the monsters from that bun shop are."

After saying that, he couldn't help but grab Qiao Zhi and licked it, feeling much better all of a sudden.

As soon as Chen Gang opened the door and came in with the medicine, he saw Chu Qiguang holding the cat and licking it. The strange and twisted scene frightened him so much that he turned around and left, but was stopped by Chu Qiguang.

"Aren't you here to change my dressing? Why are you walking?"

Chen Gang walked up tremblingly. Chu Qiguang looked at his appearance and said, "Do you like cats?"

How dare Chen Gang say no, he immediately nodded his head.

Chu Qiguang handed Qiao Zhi over: "Would you like to touch it?"

Chen Gang looked embarrassed, and finally struggled to put his hand up.

As he put his hand on the cat's back, Qiao Zhi shook his head: "No, if you have ten levels of cat love, this guy doesn't have one level of cat love."

"It's a pity that I gave you the opportunity but you don't have the talent." Chu Qiguang sighed, took the cat back and petted it.

…

In the next few days, Wang Cailiang saw Chu Qiguang recuperating peacefully and even taking sick leave from the Yinglue Museum. There was no trace of resentment or anger on his face. He thought that the other party had given up on the stupid idea of ​​revenge. Wei Wei Calm down.

But some things unknown to Wang Cailiang are fermenting in the darkness of Qingyang County. For example, Chu Qiguang's martial arts has not improved for many days due to bone fractures, and for example, he only has more than 800 taels of silver left.

And on the fourth night after Chu Qiguang was injured, near Wenchang Temple in the west of Qingyang County, Sixi Hall, the best brothel in the county, was still full of guests.

Hao Yongnian hugged him from left to right, and there were helpers around him who took turns toasting and having fun, making him laugh from time to time.
