Chapter 96 Strange People From Yicheng

Liang Yan watched Yun Xuzi leave, all kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, but after a moment, he just sighed slightly.

He has been following Yun Xuzi for almost twenty days. During these twenty days, he has tried all kinds of methods and methods, but he has never been able to force the poison out of his body. For this, he can only secretly lament the methods of Master Zhuji. extraordinary.

Yun Xuzi was so confident about him that he even let him walk around the city alone. He was obviously sure that he could not detoxify, so he must not dare to escape.

However, Liang Yan is optimistic. Since he can't do anything about the situation at hand, he simply lets it go. Anyway, Yun Xuzi still has something to use him for, so it won't be detrimental to him if he doesn't do it for a while.

Seeing that Yun Xuzi had disappeared, Liang Yan moved his steps, climbed down from the city wall, and landed lightly in Mingyi City.

At this time, night falls. Although it is cold in the depths of winter, Mingyi City is decorated with lights and colorful lights everywhere. Various lanterns are hung on both sides of the streets. There is an endless flow of people and it is very lively.

"Could it be that tonight is a lantern festival here?"

After all, Liang Yan has a young mind. Seeing the bright lights and bustle on the street, he couldn't help but get interested and walked alone among the bustling people.

"Let's guess the lantern riddles. Let's guess the lantern riddles. If you guess correctly, you'll be polite!"

Liang Yan stopped at a stall and saw a short, chubby boss looking at him with a smile on his face.

"Brother, I see that your heaven is full and plump, and your temperament is elegant and easy-going. You look like someone who has read poetry and books. Why don't you guess a lantern riddle? It only costs ten pieces of paper once, and the prizes are very generous!"

Liang Yan glanced at the prize area and saw that they were all calligraphy, paintings and copybooks, as well as the Four Treasures of the Study, most of which were of high quality. However, he didn’t originally have any intention of doing this. He just came here to have fun, so he smiled slightly and said:

"Then let's take a guess."

He took out ten copper coins from his sleeve and threw it to the stall owner. He then reached out and took out a lantern hanging on the string. He saw the words on the lantern: Don't be impulsive.

"Not impulsive?"

Liang Yan frowned slightly, while the pudgy boss said with a kind smile, "Just because I'm not impulsive, guess the name of an emperor from the previous dynasty."

"this"

Liang Yan secretly smiled bitterly. He was not from the State of Zhao in the first place. He was just brought to the State of Zhao from the State of Yue by an old monk. How could he know who the previous emperors of the State of Zhao were.

Upon seeing this, the short and fat stall owner took out an hourglass with a smile on his face and said, "If the sand leaks out, this guessing game will be considered a failure."

"Okay, I can't guess. I'll give you another ten coins. Just tell me the correct answer!" Liang Yan waved his hand and said directly.

The smile on the boss's face became even brighter, and his small eyes were squeezed into slits. He nodded hurriedly and said: "Of course it is, of course!"

Just when he accepted Liang Yan's copper coins and was about to tell the answer, there was suddenly a loud noise from the other end of the street, and the crowd around him surged towards that direction.

Liang Yan turned his head to look, a faint blue light filling his eyes. After a moment, a strange look appeared on his face, and he followed the flow of people around him and walked towards the source of the sound.

"It's so strange in this world that someone was dragged out and paraded through the streets at night!" someone in the surrounding crowd commented.

"Yeah, I don't know who was the unlucky one, or what kind of immoral thing he did." Someone else echoed next to him.

Liang Yan followed their gazes and looked forward, only to see a team of more than ten people. Two of them were dragging a trailer. On top of the trailer was a wooden cage with a handsome scholar sitting inside.

This scholar has a handsome face, is dressed in white Confucian clothes, and has a brocade robe and jade belt around his waist. He looks like a romantic and talented man. But there is an abacus hanging on his waist, which is incompatible with his elegant and suave image.

His hands were tied behind his back at the moment, and his whole body was covered with melon rinds and husks. It was obvious that he had been beaten, scolded and tortured a lot along the way. But he seemed to not care at all, and even stared at the people around him and laughed. I don’t know if the onlookers are watching his joke, or if he is laughing at the onlookers?

"Dear fellow villagers, this man is so debauched that he actually seduced my young lady at night. You must know that my young lady is pure and pure, and she is already engaged to the prince of the Wang family. Yet this man is so shameless. According to the rules of our ancestors, he has to parade around the streets and soak in pig cages. !”

"Bah! Shameless!"

"This kind of person deserves to die!"

Many people in the crowd echoed, and some even threw eggs, banana peels and the like at him, but most people still looked at the fun and pointed at him from time to time.

"Haha, Miss Lin family was born with a beautiful country, talented people and talents, but such an outstanding daughter wants to marry the idiot son of the Wang family. If it's not a waste of natural resources, what is it?" The scholar in the cage didn't care about the people around him. Instead, he had a smile on his face. said.

"What did you say?"

A fat man in the team shouted angrily. Everyone turned around and saw that this man had a chubby figure, a lot of fat on his face, and a bit of slack at the corner of his mouth, giving him a look of dementia.

Everyone knew without asking that this man must be the "bastard son" in the scholar's mouth, and they burst into laughter for a moment.

"What are you laughing at! What are you laughing at!"

The servants of the Wang family stepped forward and shouted: "The marriage between the Lin and Wang families was arranged long ago by the previous generation. Our Wang family has a great business, how can we humiliate the Lin family?"

At this time, the scholar in the cage sighed and said seriously:

"Have you, the previous generation, ever considered Miss Lin Yan's own thoughts about the marriage? She is not a talented scholar, but she is determined to save thousands of lost girls like Miss Lin Yan and bring them out of the sea of ​​misery. This is not a good thing. Even if the scholar is shattered to pieces, he should not forget his original intention and continue on this path firmly."

Liang Yan smiled in the crowd. He was obviously trying to attract someone else's daughter, but he made it sound as if he was performing a great meritorious deed.

"However, although this person may seem absurd and unruly, he is actually a real cultivator, and he is at the seventh level of Qi training!"

Liang Yan has the Hun Gong, so he can easily see through other people's cultivation. However, due to the Tianji Pearl, ordinary monks of the same level cannot see through his realm.

"You shameless person, you are still talking nonsense here." Everyone in the Wang family looked angry, and some rolled up their sleeves as if they were going to beat him.

"Why should the in-laws be angry!" said a member of the Lin family on the side: "This man is full of fallacies, so what's the point of arguing with him? I'll put him in a pig cage later and see how he can confuse the public with his monstrous words!"

"It's over, it's over! Soaking a pig cage will kill someone!"

The scholar in the cage showed fear for the first time, and said with a fierce face: "Since I can't protect myself, I don't care about the rules of the world. Wang, if you are in the first year of junior high school, don't blame me for being in the fifteenth year! I will You asked me to reveal all the good things I did!"

"What good thing? What did I ask you to do? Don't talk nonsense here!" the fat man named Wang yelled angrily.

"Hmph, didn't you ask me to seduce Miss Lin Yan? You said that the Lin family is now in a state of decline, and that finger-tip marriage was a foolish thing of the previous generation. The current Lin family is not worthy of your Wang family at all. You want me Ruin Miss Lin Yan’s reputation so that you can legitimately break off the engagement!"

"Nonsense! When did I tell you such a thing?" Fatty Wang's face turned red.

"Hmph, you are just talking nonsense here when you are about to die. Do you think I will believe it?" A tall middle-aged man from the Lin family also frowned.

"Don't believe it!" The scholar said anxiously: "Come here, I will only tell you this!"

The middle-aged man from the Lin family was doubtful and approached the scholar. The scholar leaned forward and whispered something in his ear.

But even though the voice was soft, how could it be hidden from Liang Yan's ears and eyes.

Liang Yan was secretly working on the Hun Hun Gong, and only heard the scholar say:

"Fat Wang secretly said that you are old and disrespectful, don't know how to work hard and make progress, and just want to be rich with your daughter. In order not to be dragged down by your Lin family, he specially invited me to act in this play. He has even written the divorce letter. You If you don’t believe it, look at this.”

As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it into the hands of the elderly Lin family members. He also said: "You also know that I am a gentleman in Liang Shang. I specially reserved this hand for self-protection."

The elderly man in the Lin family unfolded the paper and took a closer look. His face immediately changed color and he said, "It is indeed that bastard's note!"

He turned to Fatty Wang and angrily yelled: "Wang, you are going too far! Back then, your grandfather was just a fish seller. If it weren't for my father's help, would your family be as prosperous as it is today? I didn't expect that you didn't know this. We are grateful, but instead think of ways to humiliate us, what a bunch of white-eyed wolves!"

Fatty Wang was inexplicably scolded by him, and he couldn't help but said angrily: "Lin, what are you talking about? I don't even look at your family's current virtues. We, the Wang family, don't care about your poor settlement, but instead you are kicking your nose in the face?"

"Fuck you white-eyed wolf!"

"Ouch!"

I don't know which one made the first move, and the two families instantly got into a fight, and the scene was extremely chaotic.

In fact, the Lin and Wang families had long had a quarrel. Their grandfathers had been close friends for a long time, but they both died young.

In the following decades, the Wang family prospered while the Lin family declined. Unknowingly, there was a gap between them, but they never openly broke up.

At this time, the scholar secretly provoked, which was like a spark igniting a dry firewood. The two families vented their grievances accumulated for many years, punching and kicking each other, and many servants fought together.

In the chaos, the two servants fought near the prison car and happened to pass by the scholar.

The scholar was looking at the sky at the moment, whistling in his mouth, but suddenly stretched out a leg from the wooden cage, tripped the man who was fighting to the ground, then raised his toes and pulled a string of hair from his waist. The key flew away.

The key drew an arc in mid-air and landed in the wooden prison. The scholar reached out to take the key, leisurely took off the handcuffs in his hands, opened the wooden prison, and got out with a short body.

At this time, everyone in the two families was already blushing and neck-deep from the beating, and the onlookers were also excited. Those who tried to stop the fight were applauding, but no one paid any attention to this person who was supposed to be a "prisoner."

The scholar patted his clothes and removed the peel and eggshells on them, looking elegant and suave again. Then he put his hands behind his back, swayed slightly, and disappeared into the crowd.

"What a great way to drive away wolves and tigers!"

Liang Yan could see clearly from the onlookers that although this man was a monk, he did not use any force. He actually solved the trouble for him with just a few words. As for the divorce letter, of course it was a forgery by the scholar.
