"Grandpa, this is obviously a sword, how come it is a finger technique?" The little girl was puzzled. "Put down the sword, and the finger technique will come naturally. This hero is ten feet away, and he only needs to lightly point his finger. What do you think will happen?" The old man persuaded him patiently. "What will happen?" "What else can it be? Of course, it will kill him!" The old man answered humorously, causing everyone to laugh again, and at the same time, their eyes were focused on the old man in surprise. Ten feet away, a light touch of the fingertips can kill people. If this is true, the hero's finger technique can be said to be invincible in the world. "Maybe you don't believe me, let me tell you about a bizarre murder case that happened in Jiangnan recently.
I'm sure some people have heard of this case. There are four flower thieves in Jiangnan, known as 'Eastern Evil, Western Bitch, Southern Thief, and Northern Color'. They have committed many evil deeds, ruined countless decent women, and their crimes are too numerous to list, but they can still run rampant in Jiangnan. What does this mean?" "Are these four people very powerful?" The little girl hit the nail on the head, and everyone hated these four people in their hearts. The social ethics in the Central Plains are strict, and women's chastity is more important than life. These flower thieves are more hateful than brutal bandits. "Yes, these four are masters in Jiangnan, and many people want to catch them but cannot. However, just recently, when the four thieves were working together to commit a crime, they seemed to be possessed by the ghosts of their former victims. Suddenly, their lower limbs burst and they fell off the roof. The scene was horrifying. Now they are imprisoned in the prison, unable to take care of themselves, and living a life worse than death. As the saying goes, the net of heaven is vast and nothing can escape it." The old man described. "Old man, do you have any evidence that Young Master Su did this?" Someone questioned. Everyone turned their eyes to the old man, secretly surprised. Although it is rumored that it was the ghosts of the wronged who took their lives, everyone with a discerning eye knew that it was done by a master. It is far-fetched to force this matter to be linked to a hero. "Haha, this guest doesn't know that this matter has been spread all over the world, and it was done by that great hero. At the time, there were the great hero Lu Xiaofeng and the seventh son of the Jiangnan Hua family. The hero used only one finger to send out four invisible sword energies, instantly crippling the lower limbs of the four flower-picking thieves, and the four thieves couldn't even see their figures clearly. In order to prevent the thieves from dying easily, he also tapped in the air to seal the acupuncture points of the four people, stopping their bleeding and healing their wounds.
Is this finger technique the best in the world?" The old man's story was vivid, and the audience was fascinated, full of admiration and yearning. On one side of Zuiyue Tower, several middle-aged men in brocade robes shook their heads. They did not question Su Chen's achievements, but they felt that these deeds were too ostentatious. In their ears, although there was no exaggeration, it was too high-profile, which was a bit ostentatious. The person they knew was not deliberately low-key, but he was definitely not someone who liked to show off. Three months had passed since Su Chen settled in Kezhou Town. With sufficient financial resourcesfood, and all affairs were handled with ease. In just three months, the small place with a population of only four or five hundred has rapidly developed into a large town with a capacity of four or five thousand people. Every household has a regular house, and the town has built government offices, schools and various shops, with everything you need. What is particularly special is that the school is not set up for children, but for women in the town. In that society where "women without talent are virtuous", most women are illiterate and only receive "three obediences and four virtues" education, and have no practical skills. People often say that "scholars are useless", and the situation of women is even worse. Therefore, Su Chen specifically asked Shangguan Haitang to teach them practical skills such as arithmetic, self-defense, and weaving to ensure that they will have a skill in the future. According to Su Chen's plan, a large port was newly built near the sea in the town, which was large enough to berth more than ten large Fu ships. However, due to the geographical location, the port can only be so large. Such a huge transformation has not cost more than 100,000 taels of gold, and the actual cost is only more than 80,000 taels, and most of it is paid in silver. In the live broadcast room, Su Chen sat in front of the camera, his eyes sharp and deep, as if he could see through every corner of the world. He smiled slightly and said to the audience in front of the screen: "Dear friends, welcome to Su's live broadcast room again. Today, I will continue to reveal the unknown secrets of the world, so that everyone can have a deeper understanding of this seemingly calm, but actually undercurrent world々〃 ." The barrage in the live broadcast room exploded instantly, and all kinds of comments of amazement, doubt, and expectation emerged like a tide. Su Chen glanced at the barrage and continued: "First, I want to expose a little-known organization in the martial arts world - the 'Shadow League'. This organization hides in the dark and is good at using intelligence networks to manipulate the situation in the martial arts world. It has even manipulated several large-scale martial arts feuds. They act in a secretive and ruthless manner, and even many famous sects are afraid of them. However, their true face and purpose are still shrouded in mystery." "Shadow League? The name sounds very mysterious!" "This organization is so powerful, how did Su Shaoxia discover it?" "It turns out that there is such a secret force in the martial arts world!"
... The discussion among the audience on the barrage became more and more heated. Su Chen smiled slightly, as if he saw through the audience's curiosity: "Regarding the Shadow Alliance, I learned about its existence by chance. At that time, I was tracking a mystery case and accidentally discovered their connection with the case. After a series of in-depth investigations, their mystery was gradually revealed. Of course, this process was full of thrills and challenges, and I also gained a lot of valuable information." "Young Master Su is really both wise and brave!" "Look forward to Young Master Su sharing more aboutInformation about the Shadow Alliance!" "If this is written into a novel, it will definitely sell well!" The barrage was full of admiration and expectations for Su Chen. "Next, I want to talk about treasures from other worlds." Su Chen changed the subject, his eyes flashing with excitement, "A few months ago, I had the honor of coming into contact with a treasure from another world - the 'Fantasy Color Spirit Pearl'. This pearl contains magical power that can improve the holder's martial arts skills and even reverse the situation at a critical moment. At that time, several female knights and female demons found me through various channels and asked me to identify this gem, hoping to use its power to solve their own problems. " "Treasures from other worlds? It sounds cool!" "Fantasy Color Spirit Pearl? I want to have it too!" "How did those female knights and female demons solve their own problems? ” The audience on the barrage was attracted by the treasures from another world, and they expressed their opinions one after another. Su Chen nodded and said: "One of the female heroes went crazy while practicing a profound internal skill, which caused the true qi in her body to become disordered." "After obtaining the Magic Color Spirit Pearl, she gradually adjusted the disordered true qi in her body through a specific refining method. In the end, she not only successfully resolved the crisis of going crazy, but also made her cultivation level reach a higher level. And the other female devil, at the critical moment of the duel with her enemy, used the power of the Magic Color Spirit Pearl to perform a stunning stunt, successfully defeated the opponent, and avenged the previous shame." "The treasures from another world are really magical!" "That female hero and female devil are so lucky!" "I also want to find treasures from another world! ” The audience on the barrage was amazed at the magical effects of the treasures from other worlds. “Of course, treasures from other worlds are not easily obtained.” Su Chen said earnestly, “They are often hidden in dangerous secrets, and you need to have enough strength and wisdom to find them successfully. But as long as you have courage and perseverance, maybe one day, you can also use the power of treasures from other worlds to solve your own problems and decorate your life in the rivers and lakes like those female heroes and female demons.”
“Young Master Su is right, strength is the key!” “For the treasures from other worlds, I will also work hard to practice!” “Look forward to Young Master Su sharing more secrets of the rivers and lakes and treasures from other worlds next time! ” The audience on the barrage was very encouraged. Su Chen nodded with satisfaction and continued to share more stories about the secrets of the rivers and lakes and treasures from other worlds in the live broadcast room. The audience was excited and the atmosphere in the live broadcast room became more and more heated. At the same time, the Wan family mobilized tens of thousands of craftsmen to work day and night. After three months of hard work, the Hero Temple ten miles away from the town was finally completed. The cost of this Hero Temple was as high as 300,000 taels of gold. Although the construction period was short, its magnificence was beyond words under the premise of ensuring the quality of the project. The originally barren Baizhang Peak has now been transformed into a solemn and spectacular cemetery. On the top of the thousand steps stands a magnificent ancestral hall - the Heroes' Shrine. In front of the ancestral hall stands a huge sword-shaped monument, three feet high and one foot wide, with four large characters engraved on the front: "Anti-Japanese Heroes". On the lower side is a famous eulogy written by a great scholar. The sides of the monument are carved with fierce beasts such as tigers, leopards, dragons and snakes, with exquisite craftsmanship. The back of the monument is densely engraved with the names of nearly 10,000 anti-Japanese heroes, who were the soldiers who died heroically in this expedition. According to Su Chen's intention, there are no tablets inside the ancestral hall, but murals to record history. These murals are adapted from the stories told by Bai Xiaosheng and were urgently made by more than a dozen carving masters. Each mural is one foot high and three feet wide, with a total of hundreds of murals, which are connected like an art gallery. The front of the Heroes Shrine is a sacrificial hall, while the back imitates the layout of a cemetery, with tombstones and cenotaphs. Some are used to place ashes, while others are only used for commemoration. Most of the homeless heroes' souls return here, arranged neatly and with extraordinary momentum, which was unique at the time. Such a huge project was completed within three months, which shows the strength of the Wan family. This is also the reason why Su Chen did not directly touch the Wan family at the beginning: the Wan family's business network and personal connections are intricate and far-reaching. "々｀ Boss Li, the Heroes Shrine has been built. In three days, please ask the prefect and others to preside over the memorial ceremony and invite all the major families to come and watch the ceremony." Su Chen ordered. "Don't worry, young Su, I will arrange it immediately." Li Zhengkai attached great importance to the completion of the Heroes Shrine and knew the great significance of its opening. Su Chen turned his eyes to the direction of the family, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his lips. Three days later, that place will become the starting point of a bloody reckoning. He cannot stay here for long. To make people remember his deterrent power deeply, he can only use the lessons of blood and life to demonstrate his domineering style. Many noble families have already received the news. After all, the Six Gates and the Divine Marquisate will never stand idly by and allow Su Chen to start a bloody massacre and trample on the laws of the empire.
However, three months have passed, and Su Chen has never shown any signs of taking action. In the eyes of these noble families, this move is nothing but bluffing. They firmly believe that a child of a Jianghu family dares to be so bold as to attack a Jiangnan scholarly family. Even the Wan family earlier, didn't they reach a settlement in the end? As for the memorials submitted by the Six Gates and the Divine Marquisate that they colluded with the Japanese pirates, there has been no response so far, as if a stone had sunk into the imperial study. This is the ability of the Jiangnan noble family. They were based on the aristocratic class. After the implementation of the imperial examination system, most of these new aristocratic families were from poor families who entered the government through studying and passed down knowledge. They used a large amount of silver to bribe the dignitaries in the court with the huge profits they made from overseas trade every year to ensure that their own interests were not violated. This is also one of the reasons behind the maritime ban policy - aristocratic family monopoly. The Wan family and the Hua family were once members of this family. "Qian Family of Jiangnan!" Meng Xinghun stared at the information in his hand, his heart surged and his thoughts were in a mess. At this moment, he received an order from Sister Gao, which turned out to be to wipe out a family, and the four killers of Happy Forest were all out, taking more than a hundred senior assassins with them. The information shows that the total number of the direct lineage, collateral branches and personnel of the Qian family outside the family is more than a thousand. These thousands of lives must be wiped out overnight, leaving no one alive. The cruelty of this mission is outrageous. But Meng Xinghun noticed a line of words at the end of the information - "Qian Family of Jiangnan colluded with Japanese pirates and should be executed!" He couldn't help wondering when Happy Forest became a chivalrous and righteous man, and took on such a task of eliminating evil. However, this sentence relieved his psychological burden to a certain extent. In Kyushu, tragedies of extermination of entire families happen from time to time, and it is also normal to implicate nine clans. In contrast, the entire family of those who colluded with the Japanese pirates was executed, which was the law of nature and a great relief to the people. At least at this moment, although he thought that killing might be immoral, what he did was right. At midnight, everything was silent. At this moment, almost everyone in the Qian Mansion had fallen asleep except the night watchman. But for the assassins, this was the time when they were most energetic. They climbed over the wall silently like cats in the dark. This was an important place in the city, and they had to act quickly, otherwise they would easily be surrounded and unable to escape. There were many masters among the guards of the Qian Mansion. Although the four assassins were not top figures, they were all first-class players, especially good at killing. When the night watchman noticed the killer's invasion, a cold light flashed, and a guard leader with good internal strength instantly fell to the ground. The shadow of death instantly enveloped the Qian Mansion, and screams echoed in the mansion. However, unexpectedly, there was no night watchman patrolling around the Qian Mansion, and there was a dead silence.
Until a stick of incense burned out, the shrill screams finally alerted the surrounding residents, and someone hurriedly reported to the police, but when the yamen arrived at the scene, more than half an hour had passed. "Roasted chestnuts, hot roasted chestnuts, sweet and delicious!" Under the night, an old woman who seemed to be nearly 70 years old pushed a roasted chestnut cart and looked at the mansion in the distance with flames rising to the sky - that was the Bai family, the leading salt merchant in Yangzhou. ..............
