Chapter 78 Take Care of Yourself
The Qingyi Gang is like a dark cloud, covering the entire county.
Many people know that this gang is related to the county government.
The Qingyi Gang will not fall unless the county government falls.
But the county government belongs to the Daliang court.
"Does the Qingyi Gang have to wait until something happens to the court before it falls?" Qi Xiaoyu muttered in a low voice. In the eyes of a humble person like him, the court is too far away.
He has never even been to the capital city in his life, and his life is no different from a frog in a well.
"Xiaoyu, come here and tell me in detail." Qi Shun suddenly waved behind the counter,
"I'm coming!"
Qi Xiaoyu responded, ran behind the counter, and told Qi Shun the news he had found out in full.
After listening, Qi Shun said with a smile: "Great! That young master Xu Hua of the cloth shop is a real blood warrior, and Brother Chu is really getting more and more powerful!"
"Shopkeeper, what level of warrior is Mr. Chu?" Qi Xiaoyu was curious.
"I don't know either."
"Shopkeeper, you don't know?"
"I haven't asked."
"Many people outside are saying that Master Chu is at least a warrior with two bloods and qi." Qi Xiaoyu said, "Some people say he is a warrior with three bloods and qi, but he is too young, so two bloods and qi are more reasonable."
"What's young? Brother Chu is a martial arts genius! Even five bloods and qi are reasonable!"
Qi Shun was in a good mood and couldn't help but praise.
The more powerful Chu Liang is, the more worthwhile his previous adventure was.
"This time, Brother Chu can stand up for the boy in the noodle shop, and next time he can stand up for us. Although he doesn't talk much, he remembers everything clearly in his heart and will not forget it." Qi Shun smiled.
"Shopkeeper, will Master Chu be more powerful than the one in our restaurant?"
Qi Xiaoyu was very curious. He knew that there was a warrior with three bloods and qi behind the restaurant, but he had never seen him.
In the entire restaurant, only Qi Shun was qualified to see the warrior master.
Qi Shun shook his head and said, "I don't know. I haven't seen our master take action, so it's hard to judge."
"Okay."
Qi Xiaoyu could only hide his curiosity.
He asked another question: "Boss, the young master Xu Hua from the cloth shop was beaten so badly this time. Will the cloth shop seek revenge?"
"Who?" Qi Shun asked back, "The one who controls the cloth shop, that is, Xu Hua's father, just condensed the third blood and qi a few months ago. Would he dare to retaliate against Brother Chu? Brother Chu is a disciple of the Qiu Dao Martial Arts School. Would Xu Hua's father dare to attack the Qiu Dao Martial Arts School?"
"What about the Qingyi Gang?"
"The Qingyi Gang... This is a big problem!"
Hearing about this gang, Qi Shun immediately put away the smile on his face.
Before, due to those rumors and the statements of masters such as Wu Neng and Qi Hai, many people thought that Chu Liang was just a weakling who had just condensed a blood and qi.
A weakling like him who has not even learned martial arts can naturally not be a match for the group of Madam Nineteen of the Qingyi Gang.
So the Qingyi Gang shifted its sights.
But now that the news has come out, everyone knows that Chu Liang's strength is definitely not what the rumors say.
This incident slapped Wu Neng and others in the face, but it also brought Chu Liang back into the vision of the Qingyi Gang.
Qi Shun pondered for a while and said: "Brother Chu has shown such talent, the owner of the Qiu Dao Martial Arts School will definitely focus on training him, and the Martial Alliance should also pay more attention to him. With these two parties checking and balancing, the Qingyi Gang should not dare to be too presumptuous."
"Boss, is it possible for Master Chu to destroy the Qingyi Gang in the future?"
"Destroy? You really dare to think!"
Qi Shun glanced at him and said: "As long as the county magistrate in the county government is still there, the Qingyi Gang will exist. Even if a new master is replaced, the new master will need a force to help him do dirty work. Do you understand?"
"I understand."
Qi Xiaoyu nodded immediately. He is a smart man and naturally knows these things.
He couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
It seems that the Qingyi Gang will have a long time to be lawless.
"But Mr. Chu's strength is far stronger than the rumors say. He must have killed the tiger monster himself. Those who scolded him before should apologize to him, right?"
"Apologize? Xiaoyu, you really think too much." Qi Shun shook his head, "Let's not talk about anything else. Let's talk about Miss Qi Yue from the Black Sword Martial Arts School. Do you think she will apologize?"
"This..."
In the life dictionary of some people, the word "apology" will never appear.
It didn't exist before, and it probably won't exist in the future.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the Black Sword Martial Arts School is a bit weird.
The whole county is discussing Chu Liang's angry attack, and the Black Sword Martial Arts School is naturally no exception.
Many disciples of the Black Sword Martial Arts School know that their eldest lady once drove Chu Liang out of the martial arts school with her own hands, and she also publicly discussed the content of those rumors many times in the following month.
It can be said that the rumors can spread so quickly, which has a lot to do with their eldest lady.
Of course, their martial arts school master Qi Hai also participated.
"It's already this point, why hasn't Miss Qi Yue come out to express her attitude?"
Many martial arts school disciples were puzzled.
Qi Xiuliang laughed and asked, "Make a statement? Do you expect that young lady to apologize?"
"Brother Qi, you are really good. You can distinguish right from wrong and always speak up for Chu Chuliang without being misled by rumors."
"I have said it before, Brother Chu is a martial arts genius!"
Qi Xiuliang was in a very good mood, and the haze of more than a month before was swept away.
When he heard the news before, his mood could only be described in two words -
Satisfied!
With just one slap, Chu Liang shattered everyone's inherent impression of him and most of the rumors.
Qi Xiuliang smiled and said, "Miss Qi Yue claims to be a genius and thinks that what she can't do, Brother Chu can't do either. After all, they are of similar age, but she doesn't think about it... there are also gaps between geniuses!"
"Qi Xiuliang!"
An angry voice suddenly sounded.
Everyone was shocked and recognized that it was Miss Qi Yue's voice.
They all looked back.
Miss Qi Yue's eyebrows were raised, her pretty face was full of anger, and she shouted, "Chu Liang fought for personal reasons and injured his fellow disciples. He is extremely bad. How can such a fierce and crazy person become a hero in your mouth?"
"Miss, the Qiu Dao Martial Arts School has already made a conclusion on Chu Liang's action."
Qi Xiuliang's expression remained unchanged, he cupped his hands, and argued out loud.
He said: "The owner of Qiu Dao Martial Arts School just asked Chu Liang to reflect on himself, which shows that this matter is not as serious as you said."
"You are not from Qiu Dao Martial Arts School, you don't know the whole story, how dare you make a conclusion?" Qi Yue shouted coldly.
"Miss, what you said is very reasonable."
Qi Xiuliang nodded and said: "But I have something to ask."
"What is it?"
"Do you know the whole story of the conflict between Chu Liang and Wu Neng?"
"It's nothing more than Chu Liang took away the honor that should have belonged to Wu Neng and others. What's there to say about this?"
"Oh? Was Miss present at the time?" Qi Xiuliang asked back: "Miss also said that I am not from Qiu Dao Martial Arts School, so I don't know everything that happened in Qiu Dao Martial Arts School... But Miss you are not from Qingshi Village, do you know what happened in Qingshi Village?"
"You..."
Qi Yue's tone stagnated.
Qi Xiuliang actually used her logic to refute her.
And she couldn't think of a better rebuttal for a while, and was stunned on the spot.
"Okay, stop talking!"
A stern voice suddenly sounded.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a familiar figure.
Qi Hai!
A master of four qi and blood, and one of the masters hired by the Black Sword Martial Arts School.
He has practiced "Sinking Water Sword" for many years, and his swordsmanship is perfect. He can be regarded as a swordsmanship master second only to the owner of the Black Sword Martial Arts School in the county.
"Master Qi Hai!"
"Master Sword!"
The disciples of the martial arts school performed the disciple salute.
Qi Hai's status in the Black Sword Martial Arts School is similar to that of the sword master in the Autumn Sword Martial Arts School, except that he teaches swordsmanship.
There were originally two sword masters in the Black Sword Martial Arts School, but the old sword master died of a hidden injury not long ago, leaving only Qi Hai.
He is powerful and has many friends in the county, and Wu Neng is one of them.
The two have known each other for many years and have fought side by side in the mountains.
A large part of the rumors about Chu Liang before were spread by him using his influence.
"Qi Xiuliang, A Yue, you two are both elites of my Black Sword Martial Arts School, why do you have to argue for an outsider?" Qi Hai walked over slowly.
"Master Jian, I just think this matter is unfair to Chu Liang." Qi Xiuliang replied.
"What's unfair?"
Qi Hai looked indifferent and said in a stern tone: "Justice is in the hearts of the people, what's the point of saying more?"
"But..."
"Okay!"
Qi Hai shouted, his voice like thunder.
He didn't give Qi Xiuliang any chance to refute.
Qi Xiuliang's face was ugly, he opened his mouth, and wanted to say something, but he was one of Qi Hai's apprentices after all, and he had to practice the swordsmanship of "Sinking Water Sword" with Qi Hai.
He took "Sinking Water Sword" very seriously, and there was no swordsmanship more powerful than "Sinking Water Sword" in the whole county.
If he angered Qi Hai, who could he practice with in the future?
"This Qi Hai is one of the black hands that pushed those rumors!" Qi Xiuliang felt uncomfortable, "Brother Chu saved my life, but I learned sword from Qi Hai, I..."
He felt very complicated.
At this moment, his mind suddenly flashed with the teachings of the sword master in the past.
The old master had a unique temperament. He often said to Qi Xiuliang: "Aliang, remember, the sword is a gentleman's weapon. Not everyone is qualified to call themselves a swordsman. Life is a long journey. People should be like the long sword in your hand, and they would rather break than bend!"
Qi Xiuliang took a deep breath and made up his mind.
He suddenly raised his head, like a long sword unsheathed, with the edge exposed, and said under the pressure from Qi Hai: "Master Qi Hai, justice is indeed in the hearts of the people. Now the hearts of the people are on Chu Liang's side. I believe the day when the truth is revealed will not be too far away."
"Qi Xiuliang, are you dissatisfied with me?"
Qi Hai's face was ashen and he asked coldly.
The atmosphere instantly became extremely solemn, and the disciples around him were silent, and no one dared to speak.
They simply couldn't understand how Qi Xiuliang, the apprentice, could dare to contradict his master.
Qi Lin's face turned pale, and he tugged at the corner of Qi Xiuliang's clothes, signaling him to stop talking and quickly bow his head and give in.
But Qi Xiuliang was neither humble nor arrogant, and answered seriously: "Yes, I am dissatisfied!"
"Good! Very good!" Qi Hai laughed in anger, "In this case, Qi Xiuliang, you don't have to come to listen to my lectures in the future, you can do whatever you want!"
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and turned away with anger.
Qi Xiuliang looked determined and stood alone.
