porridge and taking the medicine, she carefully carried her granddaughter back. 。Jia Yin had stayed up all night and a whole day, her small frame couldn't take it anymore. She slept until dawn and whe..."Your dress looks almost brand new, very clean. It seems you wore it today for the first time. Then, for so many days before that, what did you wear" Jia Ren sneered.

He scoffed, "Girl, if you lie again, remember to handle the details like this better."

"Besides, when one's father passes away, there isn't a daughter who would have the heart to paint her eyebrows or apply such vivid lipstick!"

The woman, as if pressed by the questioning, suddenly lifted her head and glared fiercely at Jiaren.

But in doing so, it also made her more visible to everyone.

She had definitely drawn her eyebrows, put on lipstick, and even applied powder, which made her face and neck appear even fairer and more delicate.

Before Jia Ren spoke, no one else thought anything of it. They only thought the woman was beautiful and pitiful.

This place feels strange, really creepy.

When someone's father dies, their daughter sells herself to bury him. It is not a helpless and numb state.

This, with her makeup and dressing up, wearing a white outfit, she looks even more charming!

This isn't begging for alms, it's more like... tempting men!

"Couldn't he really be a fraud"

"She's not a con artist, but she has no good intentions. What about burying her father, it's all just an excuse to find herself a wealthy husband."

"Her father is truly pitiful, dying only to be exploited by his unfilial daughter."

The onlookers buzzed with hushed whispers, excitedly speculating on the woman's intentions. Their feet seemed rooted to the spot as if glued there, determined to watch the drama unfold.

Jiarren, seeing the woman exchanging glances with the man and the old man several times, became even more certain they were a group.

Then, he said: "Miss, to be frank, this matter is over. We won't make things difficult for you, and you shouldn't persist. You continue to wait for your destined person, and we also have to hit the road."

After saying that, he was about to leave with Jia Xu and Lu Cong and others.

But the woman suddenly grew fierce, lunged forward and pulled at Jia Xu's robe, weeping bitterly, "Sir, you promised to bury my father for me, you can't go back on your word!"

This sounds like you're refusing to commit and just want the money now!

Jia Xu was extremely embarrassed, fearing his robe would be torn open, so he reached into his pouch and was about to throw something away.

Lu Zong unexpectedly woke up once, and quickly stopped him!

These people are clearly scoundrels. If we gave them silver, they would only see us as fat sheep and want to fleece us even more thoroughly!

For some reason, he suddenly remembered what Cat had said.

Don't flaunt your wealth, or you'll be targeted.

They surprisingly don't have any children yet, incredibly self-aware.

If you don't give me silver, things will not go well today.

Just when she was feeling worried, the "corpse" in the mat behind her suddenly screamed and sat up!

Everyone was so startled that their hairs stood on end.

Is this playing possum!

Some people wanted to run, but their legs were too weak. They couldn't take a single step.

At this moment, Li Ge'er pulled the dagger from under the corpse's foot and kicked the straw mat aside.

The straw mat rolled open, revealing a middle-aged man underneath, clutching his foot and howling in pain.

Blood streamed down his fingers, crimson drops dotting everything around him.

Li Ge'er wiped his dagger and gave the crowd a faint smile, "This person can still bleed, clearly alive! Where does he need to be buried!"

Everyone subconsciously swallowed, their legs inexplicably feeling weaker.

A mischievous boy in his teens, still engaging in activities like collecting bird eggs from mountains and catching fish in the river.

But this young man dared to draw his dagger and wound someone. After seeing blood, he remained so calm and collected...

Both Jia Xu and Lu Cong changed their expressions, their toes instinctively gripping the soles of their shoes.

The woman in white screamed and rushed toward the injured man, shouting, "Husband, husband, what's wrong with you"

Everyone heard clearly, this wasn't a case of selling oneself to bury one's father, this was a couple acting as swindlers in collusion!

Lu Cong immediately pulled Jia Xu and stood beside Jiar en.

Those few elderly men, women, and men had faces ashen with rage. Instinctively, they reached for their weapons, ready to rush forward and avenge their comrades.

Unfortunately, Zheng Liu's several men were quicker. They drew their daggers from their waistbands and blocked them from the outside.

Jia Ren seeing them failed to cheat, wanted to get tough, and also turned cold-faced, scolding: "You shameless things, walking the rivers and lakes, not even knowing how to show your moves! What kind of people you can't mess with, you don't understand. Your eyeballs should be gouged out."

"If we dare to come out and walk around, how could we not have a backing Today, I'll just treat you as a joke, let's just laugh it off, I'll spare your lives. Get lost!"

"If it dares to offend us again, we'll send a notice to the magistrate's office, and make sure not one of you is left alive. You'll all be reunited in the underworld!"

Though he dressed plainly, the righteousness in his eyes was evident to all.

Official position

Could it be that all these young masters are from official families!

Otherwise, ordinary merchants and wealthy households would not be able to cultivate such grace.

Those few men and the elder suddenly hesitated. Seeing the middle-aged man's bleeding foot, they stomped their feet angrily, grabbed the woman, carried the middle-aged man, and quickly ran away.

After a long pause, everyone watching erupted in chaos.

"Oh, these are a bunch of swindlers!"

"Of course, I saw it just now."

"He's bragging, you can tell. Why is he just saying this now!"

"I'm such a fool, these people obviously have their families with them. I was too naive to say anything!"

While people were discussing and secretly looking at Jiaren and his companions,

Jiarren couldn't stand their after-the-fact criticisms. He took his younger brother and Lu Cong, Jia Xu with him, and quickly returned to the inn.

After so long entangled, the sun had already set, and dusk was just ahead.

After finally getting into the room, with no one else around, everyone sat at the table, each holding a bowl of tea. They all remained silent for a long time.

"After all, it was Jia Xu who spoke first, "Brother Li, thank you very much for your help just now. If it weren't for your brothers coming to our rescue, I'm afraid I would have been in great danger today."

Lu Cong also said: “Indeed, I didn't expect these swindlers to be so rampant. Even selling themselves to bury their fathers is fake!”

Having said that, he recalled Jia Ren's "heroic" demeanor just now and pressed further, "Li Brother, where did you learn those martial arts slang Does your family have someone from the Jianghu"

Jiaren smiled wryly and shook his head. "There are no martial arts people in my family. I just learned a few phrases before going out. They might work for bluffing at a crucial moment, but if I say too much, I'll be exposed."

Meow Meow had been watching the commotion just now. Perhaps because his older brother was by his side, he wasn't afraid at all.

He grinned at Jia Xu and said, "Brother Jia, you're so naive. The third rule of the martial arts handbook is 'sell yourself to bury your father,' which means getting rich quick. How could you not see that That woman was full of flaws, yet you didn't notice!"

"Meow, little brother!" Jiarong scolded his younger brother, unwilling for him to mock Jiaxu.

Rather than being angry, Jia Xu smiled and stood up to bow to Mao Ge'er. "Learning knows no bounds, and the accomplished are masters of all. Young brother, I have learned a great deal from you today!"

"I hope I can still get advice from you in the future, little brother. I just don't know what this "Martial Arts World Safety Manual" is. Is it a book Can we borrow and take a look"

Lu Zong also hurriedly said, “Yes, the young brother has said it several times already, I am truly curious.”

He turned to Jiaren, "Brother Li, could you possibly lend us a look at it Out here in the world, we would also like to learn from such valuable experience. Of course, we know saying this is rather presumptuous."

"In my residence in Xin Du, I still have some rare calligraphy scrolls. When I return, I will certainly bring them to you, Brother Li, for copying and studying, how about that"轉碼失敗！請您使用右上換源切換源站閱讀或者直接前往源網站進行閱讀！
