Chapter 8 Going to the Hongmen Banquet
Guan Shi said, "But he has to eat."
Liu Hu said: "Then who can't eat."
As the saying goes, old people become sophisticated, Village Chief Li was not confused yet, his eyes lit up: "You mean?"
"If he wants to eat, he has to work. Who can afford him in this village? If he works under me, he is not at our mercy."
Steward Liu looked at the look of admiration from Village Chief Li and his son, and felt a burst of pride in his heart. People take food as their sky. Food does not fall from the sky, but grows out of the ground. Controlling the ground means holding the lifeblood of the common people. If they don’t eat for three days, the hero will become weak shrimp.
Steward Liu has already figured out a countermeasure, but he doesn't have to kill them all. He just needs to beat him and see how his attitude is. If it can be used by me, it would be not bad.
Li Qingshan woke up from a dream. He didn't know these calculations. He saw a deer lying in the yard. He smiled and didn't thank the green cow. He skillfully peeled the deer and cut the meat. The deer meat is marinated so that it cannot be eaten and spoiled.
After making these preparations, he went to the stream to wash for a while, and then began to practice for a day.
For several days in a row, he would get up before dawn, and would not fall asleep until it was dark. He hardly ever went out of the house, completely cut off communication with the outside world. .
He is working hard for his dream, every step forward, every improvement, as if there is a brand new world unfolding in front of him.
More than ten days later, Li Qingshan had just finished eating a deer, and Village Chief Li couldn't take it anymore. He hadn't had a good night's sleep these days, and he had to keep his two sons by the bed every night so that he could barely sleep for a while. He is so old, how can he afford to eat this, and he is about to suffer a serious illness, so he hastened to discuss with Liu Guanshi.
Steward Liu was also anxious about waiting, and sent his servants to visit outside Li Qingshan's hut every day. The first servant reported that Li Qingshan now drinks and eats meat every day, and he is also practicing martial arts. He didn't believe it at first, until several servants said so, and then no one dared to visit.
The saying that the witch was possessed by demons came to their minds again, and Li Qingshan's courtyard seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious and terrifying color. And Li Qingshan practiced martial arts diligently, in the eyes of some people, just to prepare for revenge.
Seeing that Village Chief Li Da was about to cry, Steward Liu frowned and made up his mind: "Invite him to the banquet. If he dares to come, he will be considered a hero. If he doesn't dare, he is a pretentious coward."
An invitation was sent to Li Qingshan. He was playing with the red invitations. In such a small village, weddings, funerals, and marriages were mostly invited to call. There were very few formal posts like this, so I couldn't help feeling a little novel.
He pondered for a while, this is no good feast, if he goes, maybe he will be caught in the net. His supernatural ability has only been practiced for ten days. Although he has gained a lot, he is still invincible with two fists and four hands. .
But if he didn't go, the reputation he finally established would be in vain, and when others mentioned him Li Qingshan, they would definitely say that he didn't even dare to go to a banquet, and he lost his reputation.
At this point, once you show weakness, there will be an endless stream of blows. Liu Guanshi's hand was a deep calculation, which forced him into a dilemma.
Qing Niu said, "Will you go?"
"I just didn't have any food to eat, someone treats guests, why don't you go, Guan Yunchang went to the meeting alone, am I afraid of eating this village wine?" Li Qingshan laughed, and the pride in his chest was already born.
"Who is Guan Yunchang?"
"It's a hero I've heard of." Li Qingshan stood up, thrust his arms through his arms, and used a trick of the bull devil's top horns. At the same time, he exhaled. It came out that it was like a big buffalo dancing its horns, preparing to fight the enemy.
Qingniu nodded with satisfaction, Li Qingshan's "Bull Demon Power Fist" is already the first glimpse of the door.
The goal is to make rapid progress. If you encounter a little danger at this time, you should be careful to avoid it, which is definitely not conducive to cultivation.
"It just happened that I still had some grievances and grievances with others that could not be settled, and I couldn't be quicker. This time is just an opportunity." After Li Qingshan broke up the grievances with Li Da and his wife that day, "Bull Demon Strong Boxing" really improved a lot. The proof was not his guess and not an illusion.
Summer is coming to an end, and the sun is still shining brightly. In Manager Liu's courtyard, under the shade of a few elm trees, a table has already been set up.
A group of middle-aged men sat on several square tables, gulping down their saliva while looking at the food and drinks on the table. Only steward Liu's family could invite such a banquet! However, with the cunning of the peasants, they also knew that this feast was not for them to eat for nothing, and many things had already been explained by Steward Liu.
Say... what do you mean by breaking the cup? They didn't know much anyway, they only knew that when Steward Liu turned his face, they would have to use their fists.
Although they are reluctant to be enemies with Li Qingshan, they are both long-term workers in the field. All the long-term workers who could come came, and several tables were filled.
Even if it was a little unbearable, then I had to take it lightly, make a point of it, and then let Erlang kneel down to accompany Manager Liu, and suffer less.
The cicadas neighed weakly above their heads, and everyone was a little impatient to wait, looking at the good wine and good food and couldn't eat them, it was a big test for them, and the chatter drowned out the cicada's chirping:
"It's almost time, he is afraid and dare not come, let's eat quickly!"
"You're not afraid to put it on you, it's right if you don't come, it's the fool who comes."
Liu Guanshi didn't seem to have heard of it, he just smiled slightly, thinking to himself: It's good to know that I'm afraid, after all, he's just a half-sized boy.
"Come here!" A young long-term worker was sweating profusely, trotting into the courtyard: "Li Erlang is here!"
The people in the yard seemed to be strangled at the same time, silent. The sound of cicadas seemed to suddenly become louder.
Li Qingshan stood in front of the Liu Family Courtyard, and he was equally nervous. Everything was easier said than done. The Liu Family Courtyard with blue bricks and white walls in front of him was like a small dragon pool and tiger's den. Be careful, you may lose your life in it.
He started to retreat, thinking of "a gentleman's revenge, ten years is not too late", with the speed of his progress now, as long as he is given time, one year, no, half a year, or even three months, he will "Dali Bull Demon Fist" 》 Once you get a good look, you don't have to be afraid of anyone in the yard anymore.
His spirit suddenly burst, and he asked himself: "Li Qingshan, Li Qingshan, are all those words you said a fart? In this life, you only dare to bar your teeth at people who are weaker than yourself? A coward."
All these changes in his mind were actually just a moment's effort. Li Qingshan took a deep breath, clenched his fists, his eyes became firm, and he stepped into the door resolutely.
