In the main hall of the marquis’ mansion, there were many people. One elder sat in each of the eight chairs with carve patterns on the left and right inside. Behind each elder, many people stood, including the old and young, filling the hall.
The third elder lord sat at the head on the left, dressed in brocade clothes and a fur hat. He looked cold on his old face with wrinkles.
The fifth lord was not present, but the sixth lord stood behind the third elder lord with hatred on his face. Qi Yu was next to him and looked cold.
There were two light shelves on each of both sides of the hall with four oil lamps, which lit up the hall.
When Yang Ning entered the main hall, many people inside put their heads together and whispered to one another, and the hall was noisy. As soon as Yang Ning showed up, all the voices stopped, and countless eyes fell on him at the same time. They showed different expressions. The third elder lord glanced at
The third elder lord seemed to have not expected Yang Ning to be so decisive. He was stunned for a while, and the hall was deadly silent. All people were petrified.After a long time, the corners of the third elder lord’s mouth twitched. “Can you make the decision?” He sneered. “I advise you to ask the dowager.”“No need to ask.” A voice came from outside the door. All people paid attention to Yang Ning and didn’t notice what happened outside. Hearing the voice, everybody looked at the door at the same time.They saw that Gu Qinghan with a nice figure supported one person to come in, who was short and humpbacked seriously with white hair all over the head. Seen at first glance, it was like a dwarf. But seeing this person, all people in the hall looked stiff. The people who were standing straightened their backs immediately and the elders who sat in the chairs stood up.The dowager in the marquis’ mansion came out in person at this
Yang Ning knew that Gu Qinghan needed silver urgently now, so he was determined to get back all the tax silver next day.But today the dowager’s attitude surprised Yang Ning. She told everybody in public that she would let him manage the mansion, which caught him off guard.Although after Qi Jing died, the marquis’ mansion would be left to the heir sooner or later, it made Yang Ning feel curious as the dowager said that without hesitation.After all, not long ago, the heir of the Marquis of Honor was almost an idiot in everybody’s eyes, and the dowager certainly knew that. Just in a few days, she told him to manage the mansion, and any normal person would be astonished.But Yang Ning felt happy after breaking away from the Qi clan.Those people fawned upon the rich and powerful people and had their own ulterior motives. If they were tangled all the time, Yang Ning would dislike the Qi clan more and more, but now they h
Gu Qinghan almost burst into crying when she saw Yang Ning, whose eyes were closed and teeth were clenched. He looked pale and his body was even trembling slightly.Duan Canghai patted Yang Ning’s chest with his palm and he looked grim. But soon his expression changed greatly and it seemed that he wanted to withdraw his palm. However, he failed to raise his arm.Zhao Wushang couldn’t help but shout, “Canghai...”Duan Canghai’s body trembled. Suddenly he leaned back with his palm off Yang Ning’s chest, and finally sat on the ground. He cried, “So... so severe!”“Canghai, what is the problem?” Gu Qinghan asked hurriedly.Duan Canghai looked solemn and said, “Third Lady. There is a big problem with the Conception Vessel and the Chong Vessel.”“What do you mean? Does it matter?” Gu Qinghan really knew very little about meridian. She couldn’t understand and was so anxious, “Canghai, ask someone to bring the doc
When Yang Ning woke up, a beam of sunlight came in from outside the window, and it scattered in the room with light spots. He opened his eyes and looked around, only feeling very strange. He suddenly sat up and found the tingling sensation in his chest had disappeared.He composed himself and looked around. It was an ordinary wing room. There were two small windows with criss-cross window bars, through which the light was coming in.The furnishings in the room were very clean and concise. Besides the bed he slept on, there was another identical one on the opposite with some space between them two, which was very simple. Between the two beds, there was only a pine table and a few small pine stools. Tea cups and a teapot were on the table.The quilt and sheets on the bed opposite were gray-white, with no other colors, and they were folded square.On the opposite was a wall, and in the middle of it was a banner with a simple word, Qin
Yang Ning suddenly got angry, and Zhenming was stunned for a while. Then he said, “Ning, they are our senior fellow apprentices. Since they said that we can cultivate our minds if we eat less, they must be reasonable. Why do you get mad?”Yang Ning responded crossly, “Little monk, are you foolish? He just bullies you as you are young. Do you really think what they said makes sense?”“Amitabha.” Zhenming hurriedly put his palms together. “Ning, you can’t say something improper.”He was only thirteen or fourteen years old, but he behaved like an adult. However, Yang Ning felt strange as he heard that the little monk called him junior fellow apprentice. He asked, “By the way, what is this peak’s name?”“The top of the Tianbao Peak,” Zhenming told Yang Ning everything he knew. “The three peaks of Purple Mountain, Beigao Peak, Xiaomao Peak and Tianbao Peak are like a penholder…”Yang Ning raised his hand and stopped him. “Y
Yang Ning was furious but more shocked.He knew that the little monk Zhenming was much more powerful in martial skills than him. Zhenming rolled backward briskly like clouds, but Yang Ning couldn’t do that anyway. He thought this was just an ordinary weak monk, but he misjudged unexpectedly and this monk was so awesome.The little monk moved lightly with enough power at an astonishing speed. Yang Ning’s fighting skill was not weak, but in front of this little monk, he couldn’t react in time.“Ning, will you chant scriptures at noon?” Zhenming asked again.Yang Ning knew that he met a powerful martial arts master. This monk was skilled in fighting and was stubborn, taking his master’s words as imperial edicts.At the moment, if he wouldn’t give up, he might suffer more losses.Yang Ning certainly knew that it was never too late to avenge himself and that a wise man does not fight when the odds are against h
Yang Ning was all smiles and told Zhenming to teach him Purity Scripture. The little monk was honest and taught Yang Ning. Yang Ning just thought that the formula of Purity Scripture was hard to read, though there were not many words. Zhenming chanted it for several times successively and then told Yang Ning to recite it. In this way, in less than two hours, Yang Ning could keep it in mind with difficulty.As Yang Ning expected, Purity Scripture was a mental cultivation method of genuine qi. He had thought that it was not easy to learn this method, but unexpectedly, after Yang Ning kept the cultivation method in mind, Zhenming didn’t delay but immediately taught him the way of breathing out and directing the strength according to Purity Scripture, and in less than two hours, Yang Ning knew how to direct the strength with this method.He knew the Skills of Six Directions. Although he learnt it with a muddled head in the past, after all, he had absorbed other
Some of the monks looked astonished, but most of them were used to it.Zhenbi stared at Yang Ning and sneered. “Aren’t you making trouble now? You think that you get too little food, so you dared to smash your bowl on the ground. Do you know how the Five Cereal Hall will punish the people who do something like this?”Yang Ning was stunned for a while and then sighed. “I thought it is a sacred place of Buddhism, but it turns out to be like society.”“What do you mean by saying that?”Yang Ning responded coldly, “Isn’t it said that there are many rules in the Temple of Great Light? It turns out that you can say anything randomly and it’s common to play the bully.” He asked, “You said that I smashed this rice bowl?”Zhenbi replied, “All of us have seen that. According to the rules in the temple, you can’t come to the Five Cereal Hall in the following three days. After three days, you will know how precious so much food is
Qi Ning and the others waited outside the cave for a few moments before they saw White Toothpower come out, saying, "The Great Witch has given permission to go in, so all of you follow me."The crowd followed behind White Toothpower and entered within the stone cave.From the outside, the grotto is just an ordinary grotto, but Qi Ning in-depth, only to be appalled at the grotto of the project is huge, just the grotto of the vast scale, most of which is still attributed to the nature of the ghostly craftsmanship, and then later years, and by the Miao people keep building, only to have today's scale.Although the size of the grotto is not small, but is full of lonely and desolate, the people walk in the grotto, kicking and stepping, in the grotto spread out a long way, more show the quiet of the grotto.Qi Ning was even thinking at this time, if the Great Witch was alone here, alone and lonely, it was really a bit pitiful.After walking through a long tun
Several chiefs looked at each other, and one said loudly, "Dandu Bone, you have already killed the Great Miao King, do you want to make another mistake? If you hurt a single hair of Rangchadulu's head, we will definitely break your body into pieces."Dandu Bone said sternly,"Just based on Langchadulu's words, you put the blame on my Dandu Bone's head? You are all the chiefs of the villages, do you believe Langchadulu's words so easily?"Langchadulu exclaimed, "The evidence is overwhelming, could it be that I am falsely accusing you? Dandu Bone, you are so guilty that you should commit suicide in public to give everyone an explanation." Feeling the knife on the neck slightly tightened, the body could not help but tense up, and there was a trace of fear in his heart."I am Yifu of Black Rock Cave, the murder of the Great Miao King was all a trap set by Langchadulu." Seeing the blackness of the surrounding people and the flashes of swords, Yifu shouted, "It was Langch
The night was dark and moonless, and the Xishan Mountain Range was shrouded in night.The big Miao King was killed, the remains were placed within the large village of the Miao village, the village in addition to assigning some manpower to guard the various key roads on the mountain, young and old are already gathered to the outside of the large village, under the night, a group of people in the black, at least there are also thousands of people.The crying seemed to go on unabated from morning to night.During the years when the Great Miao King was alive, the Cangxi Miao Village, under his command, was almost peaceful, with people being self-sufficient and young and old in peace.Big Miao King is like a big tree, has been in the Miao village shelter, people have also been accustomed to have such a big tree protection and blessing.But overnight, the great tree of the Great Hmong King collapsed, and for many people, the murder of the Great Hmong King wa
The three of them were naturally unable to sleep this night, and by the next day, no one could be seen coming over for the entire day.The Prisoner Wolf Wall is quite a distance from the fortress, but despite this, the three of them heard the sound of weeping coming from the fortress, and in their hearts, they all knew that the news of the murder of the Great Miao King had spread throughout the fortress.The weeping continued for a whole day, and Dandu Bone could hardly help himself, and cried twice when he thought of the murdered King of the Great Hmong.This day not only no one to come over to the arraignment, and even the food delivery is not seen to come over, until after dark, only to see Chegu with another guard carrying a food basket to come over.Chegu first sent the meal between the gaps in the iron bars within Dandu Bone's stone prison, then Yifu, and finally Qi Ning's stone prison.Seeing that the meal was also still quite hearty, Qi Ning lau
At Qi Ning's words, Yi Fu suddenly came to a realization, her heart was appalled, and she said, "Langchadulu wanted to send out troops, but the Great Miao King and Dandu Bone didn't agree and insisted on negotiating, so Langchadulu set up a trap, killed the Great Miao King, and framed us and Dandu Bone for the crime.""That's my guess." Qi Ning sighed, "If my guess is correct, then we shouldn't survive a day. Now that Dandu Bone is imprisoned here and the Great Miao King has been killed, Langchadulu has become the number one person in Upper Water Cave, and it's only right that he can call the shots." With a hefty smile, he said, "The three of us are the ones he is most uneasy about right now, as long as we are dead, and the Great Hmong King is killed there will be someone to take the blame for him, and he will have nothing to worry about anymore."Dandu Bone clenched his fist and snapped, "If the Great Miao King was really killed by him, I ... I will definitely break thi
The three of them were each put within a stone cave, with Yifu in the center and Qi Ning and Dandu Bone to the left and right.As soon as Qi Ning entered inside, he knew that it was extremely difficult to get out, the cave was rocky on three sides, and only one side of the iron bars could be accessed.Prisoner wolf wall is obviously the upper water hole carefully designed place, the iron bars are made of fine iron, and on the iron lock, if the cold blade in hand, Qi Ning still think some opportunity to break out of the door, and now want to unarmed out of the cage, that is whimsical.In addition, there are also left three strong Miao people here to guard, that wooden house is the guard room, the front door is opposite to the stone wall prison, people in the inside, can notice every move within the stone prison.Yi Fu sat within the stone prison, anxious, she did not care about her own safety, but when she thought that the Great Miao King had met an untimely e
Dandu Bone's face turned cold and he said in a deep voice, "What did you say?""Dandu Bone, I heard that you have known these two for a long time?" Rangchadulu gripped the cold blade in his hand, "When you were at the bottom of the mountain, I heard that you were prepared to bring them up the mountain without the Great Miao King's orders?"Dandu Bone's face changed at first, and he snapped, "Rangchadulu, what do you mean by that?"Langchadulu seemed to still have some scruples about Dandu Bone, took two steps back and said loudly, "What do I mean, don't you understand? What exactly is the origin of these two people, you have to give us an explanation."At this time there was a crowd of more than ten people in the room, and all of them looked at Dandu Bone when they heard Rangchadulu say this.Dandu Bone clenched his fist and said, "That's right, I met them on my way back and .... they have saved my life.""It's good that you admit it." Rangchadulu
Langchadulu's voice was mournful, Eve's expression changed dramatically, and Qi Ning's face sank.The Miao people who followed Rangchadulu over were all shocked, and two of them had already snatched into the house, while Yifu had already followed into the house as well.Qi Ning followed behind Yi Fu and went in, only to see that there was a rattan chair at the corner of the house, the Great Miao King was sitting on top of the rattan chair, his back leaning against the rattan chair, but his head was drooping down on his chest, the house was filled with a smell of blood, the light of the oil lamps flickered, and Rangchadulu knelt down at the feet of the Great Miao King, holding the Great Miao King's hand, his complexion was bleak.Qi Ning's expression was cold, by the light of the lamp, but he had also seen clearly that in the chest of the Great Miao King, a blood stain, and the blood was flowing downward, obviously just killed soon.What shocked Qi Ning was no
Dandu Bone said in a deep voice, "Rangchadulu, for so many years, we Miao people have been living in harmony with the Han people, do you know what the consequences would be if we were to call in the troops from all the caves?"Langchadulu asked rhetorically, "And do you know what will happen if we are indifferent and turn a blind eye to the situation in the Black Rock Cave?" He took a step forward and said, "Our mission at Upper Water Cave is to stand up for the Miao people when they are in danger. Now that we all know that the Black Rock Cave is suffering from injustice, yet we sit back and do nothing, won't the Miao Family's 72 caves be chilled?""Not bad, Great Miao King, Black Rock Cave Eve has already told us the truth of the matter, this is obviously a trap set by the government for Black Rock Cave, they are so insidious, do we have to wait until Black Rock Cave has been killed before we react?" A Miao man said with righteous indignation, "Let's immediately send pe
