Xiao Yunfan and Mrs. Cui were eating inside, and they could only hear the noise outside. A fierce-looking man opened the door curtain and walked in, followed by two dull boys. The man crossed his arms and spoke in Shaanxi dialect: "Mr. Cui, thinking of the township party in our hometown, I, Xue Dengke, am not a person who makes things difficult for others. Your son and daughter-in-law earn a lot of money outside. Outsiders are jealous, but I am not jealous." . But the mayor wants me to collect rent, and I’m afraid you can’t do it at your old age.”
Old Mrs. Cui smiled apologetically and said: "Kova, it's not because Granny Cui didn't give it to you. What else is there in this room?" Xue Dengke glanced around and saw that there was indeed nothing decent in the room. He raised his eyebrows and said loudly "I see there is a horse tied up in the shed." Mrs. Cui held a sweet potato in both hands and handed it to Xue Dengke and said, "Okay, my eldest nephew, that horse belongs to this guest. What can my old lady have?" Xue Dengke said He stretched out his hand and knocked the sweet potato in Mrs. Cui's hand to the ground, then crushed it with her foot.
Xiao Yunfan stood up and said calmly: "I see you are too old, why are you so careless in doing things?" Xue Dengke raised his face, looked at Xiao Yunfan and hummed: "Hey. Foreigner, what the fuck? You are talking to Granny Cui, why do you stick your ass mouth out of the manger?" Xiao Yunfan smiled and said: "You don't want my horse, and now you say it has nothing to do with me, you are a turtle who doesn't know who raised it, but you don't know who raised it. You are just like people." The two boys behind Xue Dengke said, "Brother, this bastard is scolding you."
Xue Dengke was naturally not a light-hearted person. As soon as he heard what the other party said, he was armed with a gun and a stick, and he immediately became angry. He raised his fist and hit Xiao Yunfan at the door. Xiao Yunfan reached out and twisted his arm, pressed it behind his back, stretched out his foot and bumped into the crook of his leg. Xue Dengke screamed like a pig: "You are all fucking blind, beat him." The two boys jumped forward. Xiao Yunfan raised his leg and swung it left and right, and the two of them immediately crawled on the ground and groaned.
Xiao Yunfan stepped on Xue Dengke's back and said calmly: "Son, who has a donkey's mouth?" He grabbed his vest and lifted him above his head. Xue Dengke was nothing more than a local ruffian. He relied on his strength to study with a martial artist for several months. However, this time he showed off and met an expert.
Xue Dengke grabbed his hands and feet in mid-air, and knowing that something was wrong, he hurriedly said: "Hero, spare me, hero, spare me." Xiao Yunfan said, "Aren't you going to compete with me?" Li Jin was lifted up in the air like a chicken by Xiao Yunfan. He was frightened and said in a trembling voice: "Hero, spare me, but the villain cannot see the mountains. Please be noble and let me go."
Xiao Yunfan said: "It's easy to let you go. You eat this sweet potato." He put him down. Xue Dengke said with a bitter face: "Hero, look at this..." Mrs. Cui had never seen such a battle before. She hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her and said: "My husband, at least I have a piece of sweet potato and taught Mr. Xue to eat it. Isn't it a stomachache? Can't it?" Xiao Yunfan knew that the old lady wanted to settle the matter, but in his opinion, how could these evil people let it go? He might leave and come back to cause trouble for the old lady. Since the trouble has been caused, he simply has to clean it up.
He raised his hand, twisted Cui Dengke's ears and said lightly: "Are you going to eat or not?" Cui Dengke burst into tears of pain and said, "I...I will eat." Xiao Yunfan glanced at the two boys. , shouted: "You two go and call me the person in charge. If you want to collect the rent, come to me." After hearing this, the two of them got up and ran away. As soon as Cui Dengke took a bite, he vomited with a loud sound. Xiao Yunfan stretched out his hand and pointed at him and said: "I said, you have to eat it all. Why did you vomit it just now? How can you eat it?" Cui Dengke begged with a crying face: "Uncle, I was wrong."
Xiao Yunfan kicked him and said sternly: "Give it to me. Do you want me to feed you?" Cui Dengke could only close his eyes, shed tears, grab the sweet potatoes stuck with soil and ate them. Xiao Yunfan said to Mrs. Cui: "Old man, this matter was caused by me, and I will take care of it until the end. You can always keep your heart in mind." As he said that, he picked up a bowl of Bao Gu Zhen on the table and blew in the hot air. He drank heavily.
Xue Dengke rolled his eyes at Mrs. Cui, and Xiao Yunfan happened to see her. Xiao Yunfan said: "There is a saying that it is noon on the day of hoeing, and the sweat drips from the soil. Who knows that every grain of food on the plate is hard work. The old man kindly gave you food, but you are a bigger kid than me, and you actually threw this food. On the ground. Let me ask you, who gave you the courage?" Xue Dengke choked and said: "The villain... The villain deserves to die if he doesn't have eyes."
Xiao Yunfan said: "I don't need to die. I pinched you to death and stained the old man's house. Master, I'm going to teach you to be good today. I'll ask you if it tastes good?" Xue Dengke nodded repeatedly. Mrs. Cui trembled and prayed: "My husband, please spare him. Look at the way he eats, he will definitely suffer." Xiao Yunfan smiled and said: "Old man, please be at ease, I will treat him if he has a stomachache." of."
Not long after, there was a loud sound of boots outside the door. Xiao Yunfan knew that the real owner was coming, so he pinched the back of Xue Dengke's neck and walked out of the house. A dozen strong men walked into the yard, all carrying long sticks. In the middle, a middle-aged man with a round face in a silk shirt loudly said: "Which blind thing wants to resist rent?" Xiao Yunfan shouted to Xue Dengke: "Climb down." Then he sat on Xue Dengke's back with a golden sword. superior. Then he said slowly: "Hey, there are quite a few people here? Is it your uncle who said you are not allowed to collect rent?"
The round-faced middle-aged man sneered: "You, how dare you meddle in my grandfather's business even if you are not a green onion?" Xiao Yunfan said: "My name is Lu Buping, you must remember it clearly." The round-faced man said: " I'll fight Lu Buping, and his mother knows him." The dozen or so strong men immediately surrounded him, and Xue Dengke shouted: "Third uncle, save me."
The crowd raised water and fire sticks and hit Xiao Yunfan's head. Xiao Yunfan stood on tiptoes on Xue Dengke's back and flew up. There were several muffled bangs, bangs, bangs, and the sticks all fell on Xue Dengke, making him scream in pain. Xiao Yunfan bullied him, punching, elbowing, kicking and slapping him. In an instant, he beat a dozen big men to the floor.
The round-faced middle-aged man's expression changed and he wanted to grease his soles and run away, but Xiao Yunfan pinched the back of his neck. This middle-aged man's name is Xue Pan, and he is an errand under the head of the village. Xue Dengke was his brother's posthumous son. Xue Pan was afraid that he would cause trouble, so he was restrained by his subordinates.
Xue Pan said: "Hero, calm down and have something to say." Xiao Yunfan said: "Let me ask you, who asked you to collect rent?" It’s the meaning of other people’s houses. Logically speaking, each season of the year will have a harvest. But this year is different from previous years.”
Xiao Yunfan said: "What's the difference? Please explain it clearly to me, otherwise I will twist off your head and use it as a ball." Xue Pan said in a trembling voice: "Yes, yes. The county will hold a social fire meeting this year. We will There are few people here, and the village chief asked each household to contribute some money to hold the social fire meeting." Xiao Yunfan said: "To hold the social fire meeting, you can find a few rich households to donate more. , why bother the neighbors?"
Xue Pandao: "The mayor wants to invite Mr. Chang Wu from Liang Anxiang. Mr. Chang Wu is so arrogant that he won't come out if he doesn't have enough money. Whoever wins this social fire meeting can be exempted from taxes for half a year. . So the mayor wants all the villagers to come forward and invite Mr. Chang Wu to win the lottery, and everyone will be exempted from paying."
Xiao Yunfan nodded and said: "Okay, you go and call me the chief, and tell him that I, Lu Buping, am willing to take this job. Ask him to refund all the money he received to the villagers." Xue Pan said embarrassedly: "He, the chief, is an old man. Why are you willing to leave in person?" Xiao Yunfan said: "Your nephew is here with me. It's up to you whether you go or not. If it's late, I'll take off one of his legs first."
Xue Pan said hurriedly: "Hero, if we can discuss it, I'll go right away. Please raise your hand and don't hurt this beast." Xiao Yunfan let go of his hand, Xue Pan wiped the sweat from his forehead, and trotted off to find the place. long. Xiao Yunfan looked at the people on the ground and pointed to one person: "Tell me, sir, what is this social fire meeting about?" There are many things to do in this Shehuo Festival. Yangko, land boat, stilts, core, dragon dance, and lion dance are all available. Last year, Mr. Chang Wu’s dragon dance came first, and Nan’an Township was exempted from paying taxes for half a year.”
Xiao Yunfan nodded and said: "Okay, I think you guys are in good shape. You might as well come and play with me this year." A few of them can't do it. His long dragon started to play, flipping up and down, as if it was alive. How can we come here?" Xiao Yunfan held his chin in one hand and said, "How does Chang Wu's martial arts compare to mine?" Everyone was beaten by him. Falling to the ground, everyone wished he and Chang Wuye could pinch him. The good guy shouted: "I think this skill of the uncle is like a god descending from the earth. Chang Wu is nothing." "Compared with you, Chang Wu is in the sky and on the earth." "If you always make a move, I think Chang Wu is sure to do it." His face was hidden in his crotch."
Xiao Yunfan knew what these gangsters were thinking, and he readily accepted these flattering words. He said to Xue Dengke: "Come here, kid." Xue Dengke climbed up to him and smiled: "What are your orders, sir?" Xiao Yunfan waved his hand and said: "My ears hurt when I scream, are you willing to acknowledge me?" Be the eldest brother?” .”
Xiao Yunfan lifted him up, patted the dirt on his body and said, "Okay, you have to behave yourself and don't do this kind of bullying in the future." Xue Dengke said, "Yes, brother, as long as you recognize me as your brother, You tell me to do whatever you want me to do in the future." Xiao Yunfan said: "I asked you to chop off that crotch treasure and serve it to me as a drink, is that okay?" Xue Dengke covered his lower body with both hands and said with a flattering smile: "Brother, you are playing with your brother. Well. I only have this treasure, and I can't bear to part with it." Xiao Yunfan said to everyone, "Will you recognize me as your eldest brother?" All the men had seen his skills, and they all agreed immediately.
Not long after, the chief came to the door in a small sedan chair. An attendant opened the sedan curtain and stepped out of the car, an old man in his sixties with a beard straight down his chest. Xue Pan led the way to the courtyard, where a group of men were kneeling on the ground and bowing to Xiao Yunfan. The head of the village walked into the courtyard and said loudly: "I heard that a master came to my land, so I came here to meet him." Xue Pan walked up to him and said: "Cui Weng is this strong man. He said he can replace Chang Wu. Winning the jackpot for us.”
The eldest surname there was Cui Yan, who was recommended by the local squires, and the matter of rent collection was a helpless move. Xiao Yunfan said: "Your Majesty is the chief of the village." Cui Yan said: "That's right, little old man." Xiao Yunfan said: "Let's forget about collecting money." Cui Yan said: "Strong men are foreigners who don't know the local situation. If we invite If Master Chang Wu doesn't come, I think you won't be able to pay the rent for the past six months." Xiao Yunfan smiled and said, "Well, someone from Lu will do Chang Wu's work. The money you gave him will be given to me. Now I say I don’t want the money, just return the money to everyone.”
Cui Yan stroked his beard and said, "What are the talents of a strong man?" Xiao Yunfan smiled faintly and said, "I can't trust Lu. Okay, I'll show you my hand and open your eyes." He said that he wanted to pass the water and fire sticks in the hands of the men. He threw it into the air, and the sticks fell straight down and formed a circle on the ground. He flew up and walked around on the stick. When the men saw that his ability to stand the stick on the ground was extremely good, and that he could walk on the end of the stick as if it were flat ground, they cheered loudly.
It turned out that Xiao Yunfan had obtained Yu Shura's two true qi, and although his martial arts had not been fully restored, he was still able to display 30% of his abilities. Cui Yan was greatly surprised when he saw him walking on the end of a stick, and immediately said: "A strong man has great skills. I'm convinced, little old man." Xiao Yunfan stood on a wooden stick with one foot, his hands behind his back and said: "Such skills are better than that of ordinary people." How about five?" Cui Yan said happily: "The skills of a strong man are really amazing." Xiao Yunfan deliberately showed off, placing one foot on the wooden stick, flipping his body in the air, and standing on the end of another stick.
Xue Pan said: "There are strong men here, we can rest assured." Xiao Yunfan pointed at Cui Yan and said: "Then the head of the village can promise to pay back all the money." Cui Yan said happily: "Of course." Turning to Xue Pan said: "
Brother Xue, hurry up and prepare a banquet. We must treat this strong man well. Xiao Yunfan turned down from the stick and said to everyone: "You wait outside the door. I want to give some instructions to Granny Cui." "
As he spoke, he walked into the house.
The old lady Cui was too frightened to speak. Seeing Xiao Yunfan come in, she hurriedly said: "Young student, they didn't make things difficult for you, did they?" Xiao Yunfan smiled and took her hand and said: "Thank you for your hospitality, old man. They treated me like a god." It's too late, how can you seek bad luck on me." Then he took out some silver coins from his pocket and stuffed them into Mrs. Cui's hand and said, "You keep these small coins to replenish your health." Mrs. Cui looked at Bai Huahua. The money said: "I can't accept this. The old woman just made some simple food for the distinguished guests. How can I pay so much?"
Xiao Yunfan smiled and said: "It's not easy for an old man to live alone. His son and wife are outside, so the money is reserved for supplementary expenses." The old lady was about to bow down again, but Xiao Yunfan quickly stopped her and said many nice words, and then the old lady gave her the money. Take it.
