An Zheng pointed to the side of the street: "Don't lie on the ground and obstruct the traffic, line up neatly and lie on the street for me. Wait for your boss to come over and take the money to redeem you."
Zhang Lei did not dare to stay a minute longer. He pulled Gao Chong up and ran towards the other side of the Nanshan Street in a sorry state.
Du Shoushou walked over to An Zheng's side: "You're leaving just like that? If it hadn't been for that guy, this wouldn't have happened today. He is the one who bullies you the most. Even Little De Zi's legs were broken by him. He has been a cripple his entire life. As for Li Han, after he cut off three of his fingers, he did not even dare to stretch his hands out for others to see! "
An Zheng laughed coldly: "Let him go? Don't worry, I'll let Zhang Lei take him away, and it'll be better than killing him myself. If Zhang Lei is unwilling to kill him, I can also guarantee that he won't be able to survive in Fantasy City. "
Du Shoushou nodded his head, "It's better for such a person to die. In the future, we don't need to worry about other honest children in the academy being bullied by him anymore."
An Zheng patted Du Shoushou's shoulder, "Do you remember what I asked you just now? Have you had enough? "
Du Shoushou said: "Who is willing to live a miserable life!"
An Zheng smiled and said: "In the future, there won't be any more hardships. From today onwards, I will let you live a life where you can eat whatever you want, wear whatever you want, and play however you want. You are the only friend that I, An Zheng, have in the Fantasy City, so I will do my best to change our lives. Skinny, you remember this. No one is allowed to bully my friends! "
Inside the tavern, Great Mother Ye looked at the two teenagers who stood on the street with their arms wrapped around their shoulders. The somewhat thin and frail looking youth had a very special aura. As she stood there, she held the fatty in his arms and pointed at the distant scene, as if he was pointing at the highest mountain peak in the world. She was clearly a child who was only around ten years old. How could she have the illusion of a high mountain?
She wanted to get to know this youth, but when she thought about how she lived in seclusion for her own child, Xiao Qi Dao, she gave up on this idea. There was nothing more important than the Xiao Qi Dao's safe and sound growth. As long as the child could grow healthy and healthy, she would be willing to do anything. She turned her head to look at her child, then she couldn't help but sigh … The four-year-old boy, Qi Daozi, was sitting at a window, eating a handful of melon seeds while swinging his legs. It was as if he was not afraid at all of An Zheng's previous bloody actions.
He looked just like his father. No matter how many things he encountered, he would never be nervous or elegant.
"Big brother."
Xiao Qi Dao suddenly shouted towards An Zheng, "Do you want to eat the melon seeds?"
An Zheng turned around to take a look, and discovered that the little child was really beautiful, and also cute. He wiped the blood off his hands and walked to Xiao Qi Dao's side and sat at the window with his butt raised, "Qi Dao, were you afraid when you saw big brother hitting someone?"
Xiao Qi Dao shoved the melon seeds in his hands into An Zheng's hands, "I'm not afraid. In the future, I will beat up bad people like big brother did.
He shook his fist, but fell unsteadily from the window. The Great Mother Ye was scared and rushed forward, but An Zheng had already turned around and hugged him from the air. An Zheng stood up with Xiao Qi Dao in her arms, walked to the side of the street and pointed at the thugs who had been beaten up and said, "Xiao Qi Dao, remember this, in the future, don't ever be such a bad guy. Even if they look great normally, they will have nightmares at night and will be killed by evil spirits. Even if they were to die, they would have no choice but to go to hell and be tormented by evil spirits. "
Xiao Qi Dao nodded his head vigorously: "Big brother, can you teach me how to beat someone."
An Zheng shook his head: "No, no, cultivation is not for hitting people."
Xiao Qi Dao continued, "Mother said that I can't cultivate, but I'm afraid that mother will be bullied."
An Zheng slightly frowned as he turned around to look at Great Mother Ye. When he held Xiao Qi Dao, he could already feel that Xiao Qi Dao's physique was surprisingly outstanding. This kind of physique, if sent to a formal sect, would be given special attention. As long as he could get careful guidance, perhaps it wouldn't take long for Xiao Qi Dao to truly cultivate. But why would the Great Mother Ye lie to her children?
He peeled off the melon seeds and placed them in the Xiao Qi Dao's palm. Xiao Qi Dao laughed, his eyes shining. The cat on An Zheng's shoulder mewled softly, and his expression showed that he wanted to eat even if he had to hug me.
Great Mother Ye quickly came over and took it. After thanking him, she turned around and left.
An Zheng wanted to ask what was going on, but seeing Great Mother Ye's twinkling eyes, he felt that it would be better to not ask about other people's privacy.
Just at this moment, someone from the distance came over carrying a few large boxes. When they saw the handicapped people on the ground, their faces turned white with fright. The man leading the group quickly walked to An Zheng, and said politely: "Anzhu, this is the money our boss sent you."
The originally lazy cat immediately stood up straight when it saw this person. The fur on its back stood up, as if it wanted to protect An Zheng, and revealed the sharp teeth in its mouth.
An Zheng consoled the cat with a smile, "The bullies are really not short on money."
That person laughed, "How is that possible? A tyrant that has such a low level child playing house, how can he have so much money?" "This silver is from our boss. Our boss would like to see you."
An Zheng frowned: "Who is your boss?"
That person gestured, "Our boss is surnamed Chen."
Hearing that, Du Shoushou's face immediately changed, he went forward and grabbed onto An Zheng's hand, and shook his head with all his might: "An Zheng, you cannot go!"
Chapter 7 - You Will See Him
An Zheng thought back to the memories he had about the Chen family. This Chen family seemed to be the biggest family in Nanshan Street. All of the shops on the street were all his family's properties, all of the businesses were all rented out by his family. Furthermore, I heard that the Chen Family's people and the Fantasy City's City Lord can talk about this matter, and even the nine great bandits have no choice but to give the Chen Family face.
Du Shoushou pulled An Zheng and said he couldn't go, but An Zheng suddenly understood. Zhang Lei and the rest of the thugs were nothing compared to him, but they were able to survive in the Nanshan Street, and the Great Gou Hall did not kill him. From the looks of it, this so-called bully association was just a group of vicious dogs kept by the Chen family.
The person who came to invite An Zheng looked to be about forty years old, and he looked very ordinary and kind. When he smiled, he gave off the impression of a neighbor uncle. However, An Zheng was no longer the original An Zheng. One look was enough to see the darkness behind his eyes.
"My name is Chen Pu."
After the middle-aged man politely introduced himself, he said to An Zheng, "Anzhu had just taught Zhang Lei and the others a lesson, our boss has already found out. The boss said that even if a hundred Zhang Lei added up, he would still not be able to match up to a single one. Originally, the reason the bullies were established was to let Zhang Lei and the others play with the young master. In order to do business in the Fantasy City, he had to train his wolf-like personality. The bullies were formed by our boss specifically to nurture young masters, but they really aren't on stage. Boss said that as long as Anzhu is willing to go to our Chen Family to accompany our Young Master, it will be more useful than no matter how many bullies there are. "
He pointed back at the five thousand silver taels. "That is five thousand taels of silver, the boss knows that you are not well off in Anzhu, right? Our boss
has not discovered you since long ago. If we had, how could we have let Anzhu suffer? "
An Zheng turned his head and said to Du Shoushou: "I want our money."
Du Shoushou nodded, but he was still worried: "An Zheng, you must not go."
Chen Pu smiled and said: "Anzhu doesn't need to come with me right now. Our boss has said that he will be waiting for you anytime. As you know, our boss only has this single young master, and is willing to do anything for him. Young master is about the same age as you, you two should be able to be friends together. "As long as you've thought it through, you can go to the Chen Residence at any time."
An Zheng acknowledged: "When I have time, I will definitely pay a visit."
Chen Pu cupped his fists and turned to leave. An Zheng called out to him, "I earned three thousand silver, the extra two thousand silver has nothing to do with me, I'll have to trouble you to bring it back, help me thank Boss Chen."
Chen Pu's expression changed slightly. "This is a token of our boss's sincerity …"
An Zheng's brows slightly knitted: "Who told you that I must accept you because of your kind intentions? It's your business to have intentions, and it's my business whether you accept them or not. "
An Zheng hated words like this the most. Back when he was in Ming Fa Si, he had seen too many such faces. Just because he hated this kind of things, An Zheng had many enemies. How many people wanted to get rid of him because his existence was already obstructing the interests of too many people. The reason why An Zheng's body was severely injured and shattered was also because of the result of their sneak attack.
However, these matters seemed to be a little far from the current An Zheng. If you can't recover your cultivation, don't even think about taking revenge. The most important thing right now was to heal his current body as soon as possible. Those who had tried to get rid of him would not give up until they were certain that he was really dead.
An Zheng only replied subconsciously. It was his personality. But when Chen Pu heard this, a vicious look flashed past his eyes. In the Nanshan Street, there was no one who didn't dare to give face to the Chen family. This young man actually rejected his good intentions in front of him, this was the first time Chen Pu had encountered such a thing. However, thinking about the instructions from his boss, Chen Pu endured it for the time being.
"Since Anzhu is not willing to accept it, then I will bring it back."
Chen Pu turned and left, waving his hand for a few big sized men to carry away the two thousand silver.
Not long later, Du Shoushou who was drenched in sweat ran over: "An Zheng, I think you should go. You have offended a member of the Chen Family, you will not be able to survive in Nanshan Street. Now that you have so much silver, it would be better for you to leave Fantasy City and find somewhere to live in peace! "
An Zheng smiled and shook his head: "Do you really think this silver can be taken away?"
As he said these words, he thought of what he had done before.
Du Shoushou did not notice the change in An Zheng's expression, and appeared to be especially urgent: "Then what should we do? We can't afford to offend the Chen family. If he knew that the bully was going to be from the Chen family, he wouldn't have fought at all. What should they do now? The Chen family would never tolerate this. Furthermore, you rejected Chen Pu just now, you did not give him any face at all. "
"Give me face?"
An Zheng smirked, "Have you heard of the Ming Fa Si? If you give face to bad people, then it's the same as committing evil. "
Du Shoushou was startled, he did not understand why An Zheng would mention this, but he still nodded: "Who doesn't know of the Da Xi Empire's Ming Fa Si? Our current location is in the cracks of the Mount Cang Man, the sixteen kingdoms. Looking at it, the Fantasy City was like an ant compared to an elephant compared to any of the sixteen kingdoms within the Youlan Kingdom. Compared to the Great Xi Empire, the sixteen kingdoms are like a grain of sand compared to the desert. "
After he said these words, Du Shoushou's eyes started to shine, "Legend has it that the Da Xi Empire is one of the biggest empires in the world. I heard the people who came to the Fantasy City say before that the strongest and wealthiest empire in the world belongs to Great Xixi. And the most famous person in the Great Xi Empire was the dynasty's Ming Fa Si … Those thief, those people who do shameful things, when the Ming Fa Si is mentioned, they would be so scared that their whole body would tremble! "
A smile that Du Shoushou could not understand appeared on An Zheng's face. Was that a sense of pride?
Maybe Du Shoushou would never think that, at this moment, the one standing in front of him was no longer his good friend An Zheng, but the one who once held power over the Ming Fa Si, the first Fang Zheng of Ming Fa Si, who made those who did evil deeds feel as if they were sitting on pins and needles. With the name Fang Zheng, who in the Da Xi Empire did not know of him? Perhaps it was because there was a word struggle in every name, so the current An Zheng felt some affection towards the previous owner of this body.
Undeniably, An Zheng was already dead. Right now, the one still alive was the first Ming Fa Si of the Great Xi Empire, Fang Zheng, who had been reborn from An Zheng's body.
Perhaps it was because there were some things that caused him to feel uncomfortable, An Zheng sat down on the side of the road and said: "I've also heard a lot about the Great Xi Empire's Ming Fa Si, how about I tell you about them?"
Du Shoushou liked listening to the stories of these heroic men the most, and looked forward to the outside world as well. He sat beside An Zheng and said: "You're even worse than me, you normally don't even come out at home, how could you possibly have heard more than me? But tell me, I can see that what you said is just as different as what I know. "
An Zheng laughed, and said with a tone that Du Shoushou could not comprehend: "Just take this as someone else's story … The Great Xi Empire was too big. Any random country would be dozens of times bigger than the sixteen kingdoms combined. There were ninety-nine such prefectures in the Great Xi Empire. It's because it's too big, it's impossible for the Saint King to know everything that's happened in the Great Xi Empire like the back of his hand. "
"The Da Xi Empire is so big, so there are many evil deeds done by evil people. If he wanted to maintain the imperial court's justice, then he must have a strong law enforcement office to help the Saint King share his worries. Skinny, you want to … In such a small place like Nanshan Street, there are already people like the Chen family and the Great Kou Hall. How many bad people would there be in the Da Xi Empire? They don't care about the laws of the Great Xi Empire, they just want to make their own name. "
An Zheng raised his hand and rubbed it on his temple. This action stunned Du Shoushou for a moment. This action was as if a real adult had thought of something annoying. But why does An Zheng look so depressed at this age?
An Zheng's eyes were a little unfocused. He looked into the distance, but his eyes seemed to not see anything.
"What these people are most afraid of is the Ming Fa Si, because there is a steel-faced, selfless seat of honor there. His name is Fang Zheng, and like me, he has the same word to argue with. In order to protect the law of the Da Xi Empire, Fang Zheng had offended many great characters. These people could only wish for nothing more than for Fang Zheng to be unable to recover from this calamity. They had done everything they could to get rid of Fang Zheng, but because Fang Zheng was too strong and too cautious, they had not been given the chance. "
"Until one day, when Daxi Shenghuang received news that one of his sons was in trouble in the Sixteenth Nation's territory, and that he himself was unable to escape, he could only send his most trusted Fang Zheng to save his son. Fang Zheng had a good relationship with the prince. When they heard that he was in danger, they immediately rushed over to the Sixteenth Nation from the Da Xi Empire … In the end, we met with an ambush outside of Mount Cang Man. "
An Zheng glanced at Du Shoushou: "Skinny, do you know
anything about cultivators?"
Du Shoushou was completely captivated by his words, and subconsciously, he shook his head: "I don't understand, a cultivator … Too far from me. My big brother might be in the same sect, but in reality, he can't cultivate. He's just a servant in the sect. Even so, my family is especially glorious. It is also because of this that the people from the Gao Clan did not dare to casually provoke me. "
An Zheng said: "Cultivators, according to the strength and cultivation realms, those who have just started cultivating must undergo Purification. Generally speaking, those with potential for cultivation would be brought back to cleanse their marrow after the sect had discovered them. After Purification, the body could withstand the Cultivation Power. This was the initial stage, called the realm of the Ascension Realm. After the ninth stage of purification, it would be time for the Sumeru Stage. After reaching Xumi, a person's body could hold even more Cultivation Power and possessed a very strong attack power. Look at Kou Liu, since he was unable to cultivate, he could only cultivate in the Body Transformation realm. However, at the ninth level of the Body Transformation realm, he was barely equal to the first level of the Xumi Temple. Unless, of course, the door was open. The body practitioners who open the gate can continue to improve their own strength, but people like Kou Liu will never have the chance to do so, he's at most at the Fifth Stage of Body Transformation.
"Above the Sumeru Stage is the Captive Stage. The reason why it was called the desire to imprison was because only by controlling one's desires could one continue to improve. Above the Captive Stage was the Lower Completion Stage. He could already control his own desire, which could be considered a kind of small perfection, so it was called the Lower Completion Stage. Reaching the Lower Completion Stage is already very, very impressive, and I guess the sixteen kingdoms wouldn't be able to find many experts of the Lower Completion Stage. Above the Lower Completion Stage is the Higher Completion Stage and above the Higher Completion Stage is the Heavenly Realm. "
