Alienated Martial Arts

Wow!

A basin of hot water was poured over the head, causing the skin to turn red.

After leaving the jade workshop, Wei Tao still did not go to the martial arts school. Instead, he bought new clothes, walked around the street and entered the bathhouse.

With Master Zhou's absence recently, the disciples in the inner courtyard have suddenly become less constrained and have a lot more free time.

As for the registered disciples in the outer courtyard, they just pay money to learn anyway. If they don't get paid, it can still save a lot of resources for the martial arts school.

There were not many people in the bathhouse in the morning, so he occupied a corner alone and soaked in the large pool to rest.

At the same time, he was also thinking about how to deal with the pressing steps of the Silver Wolf Gang.

The appearance of the members of the Silver Wolf Gang and the woman's words about Ying Xue before she died all indicate that this matter is inextricably linked to the Wang siblings.

So, how to break the situation, or at least how to ensure the safety of yourself and your family, has become an urgent problem to be solved.

Not long after, a tall middle-aged man came in from outside.

He looked around and sat down a few meters away from Wei Tao.

"Master Wei sent a message. I didn't dare to delay for a moment, so I rushed over immediately." The middle-aged man soaked a towel with hot water, put it on himself, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Wei Tao showed no politeness and said straight to the point, "Shi Huishou, I have two things that I need your help with."

"Master Wei, please give me your instructions." Seeing Wei Tao's solemn tone, the middle-aged man immediately became serious.

"the first thing."

Wei Tao raised a finger and said, "I want you to send a few brothers who are skilled and clever to guard the Jade Workshop secretly."

After a pause, he continued, "If you find people from the Silver Wolf Gang causing trouble here, don't be afraid, just do it to them."

"The Silver Wolf Gang..." Shi Huishou repeated silently, his expression suddenly becoming solemn.

After a moment of silence, he didn't ask any more questions and just nodded heavily, "Okay! Since Mr. Wei said so, we will do it!"

Wei Tao raised his second finger, "The second thing is, I need to collect detailed information about all the senior leaders of the Silver Wolf Gang."

Although he was soaked in hot water, the middle-aged man's body trembled slightly. After thinking for a long time, he slowly said, "What do you mean, Master?"

Wei Tao did not respond directly, but changed the subject and said, "Shihui first established the Youth Cooperation Association and set up a flag in the outer city. Its development so far has only been struggling to survive in the cracks. Don't you want to move forward? To take a step further?"

The man sighed, "Mr. Wei, you should know that the current pillar of the Silver Wolf Gang is actually your senior sister... She can also be ranked among the top three martial artists in the entire Red Line Martial Arts Hall."

Faced with the middle-aged man's doubts and worries, Wei Tao just shook his head, "It's really nice to be nice to everyone, but if anyone insists on making me feel bad, then I won't let you go."

"As the old saying goes, I will not offend others unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I will eradicate them."

"Facing the Silver Wolf Gang, our Youth Cooperation Association lacks skilled players and is under great pressure." Leader Shi Hui took off the hot towel on his face, his expression hidden under the steaming mist was extremely heavy.

"Ha..." Wei Tao smiled nonchalantly, "I am the one who wants to collect intelligence from the top brass of the Silver Wolf Gang, so when it comes to confronting the Silver Wolf Gang head-on, does the leader have more pressure than me?"

Having said this, he slowly sat up straight and stared into the other person's eyes.

"Of course, if Chief Shi Hui feels something is inappropriate,

You can put on your clothes and leave now,

Then whether I go home and huddle under the quilt shivering,

It's better to go to Wang Yingxue and tell the truth.

I won't do anything to stop you. "

Shi Huishou tightened his grip on the towel, squeezed out all the hot water inside, and suddenly gritted his teeth and said with a smile, "Since Mr. Wei has said so, what do we untouchables like coolies have to fear?

Victory means smooth sailing, even defeat is nothing more than death. "

"Shou Huishou, what you said is unlucky. I don't like hearing it. Remember not to say it again in the future." Wei Tao narrowed his eyes again and lay back in the pool.

"Yes, yes, the young master taught me a lesson. I will go back to collect information and make plans."

"Don't be too anxious, lest you expose your flaws." Wei Tao raised his hand to tell him to calm down, "After all, Senior Sister Wang is very powerful, and I will need two or three months to prepare."

"I understand. Is there anything else you want us to do?"

Wei Tao closed his eyes and his voice was as low as talking in sleep.

“For their core members, intelligence collection must be concealed and detailed.

Just like my senior sister, whenever possible, she likes to eat, drink, and go wherever she likes;

It’s best to know what time you go to bed, what time you get up, when you poop, and when you have menstruation. "

"Don't worry, Sir. Although our people are not very strong as a whole, they are doing odd jobs all over the streets. We will follow the Master's requirements to find out the information in detail!"

After making the decision, the middle-aged man suddenly fell into an inexplicable state of excitement, immediately picked up his clothes and turned around to leave.

Wei Tao spent the entire morning soaking in the pool, recalling the battle last night.

Sure enough, as the fifth senior brother Peng Yue said, only fighting, especially fighting between life and death, can best stimulate a warrior's potential and greatly help his practice.

And compared to those beasts with little IQ, warriors who are also human beings are more targeted.

After the battle with that woman, Wei Tao felt that his understanding of Red Line Boxing had indeed taken a big step forward.

But the battle of life and death is like walking a tightrope.

One bad move will cause you to fall from a high altitude,

He fell to pieces,

There was no possibility of living anymore.

Wei Tao gathered his thoughts and turned to other aspects.

In addition to the threat from the Silver Wolf Gang,

And the murder that happened in the alley last night,

It also gave him a lot of vigilance.

This kind of evil and weird guy is definitely more terrifying than the Silver Wolf Gang and more difficult to deal with.

With the influx of Mozhou disaster victims, the outer city became increasingly chaotic.

Especially in the fringe area where he lives now, several people have died without the government taking care of them.

It's like a filthy quagmire, swallowing up hope and life bit by bit.

Maybe it's time to find a new place to live.

At least it needs to be closer to the inner city, so that we can get more security guarantees.

Wei Tao began to count his money.

As the saying goes, a horse will not be fat without night grass, and a man will not be rich without windfall.

We touched five corpses last night, although none of the men managed to get out a few taels of silver from the beginning to the end.

But that woman was quite wealthy, and two banknotes from Chase Bank were found in her shit-stained purse.

Coupled with some scattered silver coins, the value is at least more than one hundred and fifty taels.

With so much money in hand, Wei Tao began to think about buying a new house.

And it became more and more intense until it occupied almost all of my mind.

……………………

Cangyuan Outer City, a wealthy area close to the inner city.

Wei Tao followed a middle-aged man who looked like a shopkeeper and came to a courtyard with a closed door.

"Mr. Qu used to live here. They moved their family to the Central Plains years ago, so they left this house behind and sold it to us, Xingsheng Ya."

As the man spoke, he took out the key and opened the crimson door that had some paint peeling off.

With a soft creak, the heavy wooden door opened.

Past the stone screen inside the door, the courtyard inside is about a hundred square meters. In addition to the main hall and the main house, there are two rows of east and west wing rooms.

Coupled with the kitchen, bathroom, warehouse, woodshed and other buildings, the entire area is at least several times larger than the small courtyard where he lived before.

Two rows of medium-height trees grow lushly, providing a large area of ​​shade on hot afternoons.

"Sir, what do you think of this courtyard?"

"It looks good, Shopkeeper Qi, how much does this house cost?"

"The price is ninety-five taels of silver. If the young master decides directly, I can make a discount for him and I can win it at eighty-five taels."

I thought how much such a big yard would cost, but I didn't expect it would only cost eighty-five taels.

Wei Tao was thinking in his heart, but he looked a little embarrassed on the surface. After being silent for a long time, he said, "Can it be cheaper?"

"Sir, it's not that I don't want to lower the price, but I've already lost eighty-five taels."

Shopkeeper Qi was heartbroken and sighed repeatedly.

"Our bank spent eighty taels of silver to acquire this yard last year. Plus the cost of repairs and maintenance, it has already exceeded this amount.

That is to say, the market is not going well this year, and the bank's owners in the inner city are anxious to collect money to restore blood, which is why the price has been reduced to such an extent. "

"And the furniture here is complete. Although it is a bit old, it will definitely be no problem if you tidy it up and use it again. It also saves you the cost of buying a new one."

Wei Tao nodded absently and looked around the rooms before turning and walking out.

After leaving the gate, he looked back at the relatively clean and tidy courtyard, showing a slightly embarrassed expression.

“It really can’t get any cheaper?

I don’t have enough money on hand, so I have to raise it.

In this way, even if you buy a house,

So the poor only have this house left.

He also owes others a lot of money. "

Shopkeeper Qi also smiled bitterly, "Young master doesn't know something. If you are buying your own house, it's not a bad idea to bite the bullet and make it cheaper. Just think of it as making friends with the master.

But this is the bottom price set by the big boss inside, and I don’t dare to make arbitrary decisions. "

"If it doesn't work out, I'll show you other houses. Although the location is not as good as this one, it's still pretty good."

At this moment, a group of sergeants holding swords, shields and wearing leather armor walked past the stone road not far away.

Wei Tao paused, "Shopkeeper Qi, is that the patrol sergeant?"

"Yes, this is a serious city defense force of eight hundred. If it weren't for the good location here, it would be worth at least twenty taels of silver just for its security."

Wei Tao took a deep breath, then slapped his thigh suddenly, and made up his mind with difficulty, "Eighty-five taels, eighty-five taels, I bought this yard!"

"Young Master is wise. This house is definitely worth the money. I will live in it and keep it to my satisfaction."

Shopkeeper Qi was overjoyed, smiling so much that a flower could appear on his face.
