The afterglow of the setting sun spread all over the land, and the weather seemed a bit cold under the blow of the sea breeze, but this did not affect the fiery atmosphere on the island at all. The grand bonfire party was held as scheduled, and the faces of the elderly, young people, women, and children were all All were filled with happy smiles.
"Master, as soon as you came here today, the atmosphere on the island has completely changed. I haven't seen everyone smile like this for a long time."
Sanli held up his wine glass and looked at the singing and dancing people with a smile on his face. His encounter with Li Jie was quite dramatic. He was born into a wealthy family. It is not an exaggeration to say that he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. His father was originally a doctor. The people in the Jianghu eventually got tired of the intrigues in the Jianghu, so they quit their business and started business.
He just happened to catch up with the wave of gold mining in the sea. With the wealth accumulated over decades of traveling in the world, coupled with his strong martial arts, he accumulated tens of thousands of dollars in business soon, and his reputation became more and more famous day by day. Later, he became even more famous. Married to a famous local beauty.
Soon after the marriage, Sanli was born. The year he was born, his father, Ganluoshoufutai, was already over forty, so he could be considered an old man. Sanli had lived a life of fine clothing and fine food since he was a child, and was doted on in every possible way. Although Yu Yishen has good aptitude for martial arts, he did not put much thought into martial arts due to his parents' doting.
Influenced by his father, Sanli likes the sea even more, and has determined to be a sea merchant from a young age. Compared with the boring martial arts, he prefers astrology, monsoons, hydrology, nautical charts, waterways, and ship maneuvering.
However, something unexpected happened. Just as the Fu family was prospering, an old rival of Fu Tai's when he was wandering around the world came to visit. This person suddenly changed into an official uniform and took refuge in Lizong's personal chamberlain, the eunuch Dong Songchen.
Dong Songchen was an out-and-out sycophant, good at ingratiating himself, and knew how to figure out what was best for him. He was deeply loved by Emperor Lizong. At that time, Emperor Lizong was thinking about building a new garden beside the West Lake, but building a new garden would cost a lot of money. , because of the years of war, not only the national treasury was empty, but even his internal funds were drained completely.
What to do? The emperor wanted to build a courtyard but had no money. Dong Songchen did have money, but with his geese-plucking personality, how could he pay for it out of his own pocket? So he ordered his thugs to collect money. Fu Tai’s nemesis Yang Quan took the opportunity to slander and spread Fu Tai's situation.
Although the Southern Song Dynasty suffered repeated defeats in foreign wars, Dong Songchen, as the emperor's personal attendant, wanted to deal with a maritime businessman with a weak background, which was like crushing an ant. He would kill him at any random excuse.
As a veteran, Fu Tai didn't know the importance of relationships, and he would pay filial piety to everyone during the holidays. However, the people he usually paid filial piety to had limited status, so who would dare to offend the internal minister for him.
In the end, the Fu family was naturally unable to escape the fate of destruction. Fortunately, Fu Tai left a secret passage when building the house and secretly sent Sanli away before he died. In fact, he could have escaped if he really wanted to, but The person who knows you best is often your enemy. How could he not know Yang Quan’s temperament?
Years of wealthy life did not completely eliminate the bloody nature in Fu Tai's heart. That night, he burned Fu's family with a fire. His wife and the housekeeper's children were buried in the sea of fire, and the entire mansion burned to ashes.
Sanli lived among the people after that. However, even though he had no money and was penniless, he had problems with his daily life. However, he also had ambition and would neither steal nor rob even if he had martial arts skills.
Once, he bravely caught a thief. Later, the gang behind the thief came to settle the score with him. Sanli's martial arts was considered powerful in front of ordinary people, but it was nothing among professional gangs.
Li Jie happened to be passing by at that time, and after hearing the whole story, he decisively rescued him. After some exchanges, he learned what happened to Sanli, and he happened to be proficient in navigation, so Li Jie took him under his command and promised that he would definitely do it in the future. Avenge him.
At first Sanli didn't believe this. After all, his enemy was Dong Songchen, who was known as the secret minister. As the emperor's personal servant, he rarely left the palace. Even when he did, the surrounding defense forces were tight, not to mention himself. His martial arts skills are not weak. Although he doesn't take many shots, he can stand beside the emperor. He is at least a master, and he is very likely to be a super master who is not inferior to the top masters.
However, as he stayed with Li Jie longer and longer, his confidence in revenge became stronger and stronger. If they continue to develop and grow according to the current trajectory, one day they will be able to sweep the world, let alone win a mere one. Dong Songchen, even the wolf-like Mongols are not incapable of being eliminated.
"What? Sanli, do you remember the past again?"
Li Jie saw Sanli's expression full of emotion and guessed that he was remembering the past, and Sanli nodded slightly.
"Yes, before I met my boss, I only thought that the future was bleak. Revenge? I didn't even think about it. I didn't even think about what I would eat the next day or where I would live." As he spoke, he took a big gulp. Bowl of wine, "Now, things are different. I have a head start in my future life. Sooner or later, I will unscrew the heads of Yang Quan and Dong Songchen with my own hands, in order to comfort the souls of the twenty-five members of my Fu family!"
Sanli gritted his teeth when he said this. In order to hide himself, he did not hesitate to change his name and even lost his surname. Even now he can use his original name openly, but he is unwilling. To take revenge, he would not return to his original name for a day and become a person without a surname.
Li Jie patted his shoulder and said solemnly: "Don't worry, Yang Quan won't be able to jump around for long. As for Dong Songchen, he still needs to wait a little longer. I promise! It won't be too long!"
As the core members, Liu Xiaoyu, Su Shan, Sun Yuan, and Wu Keli naturally sat with Li Jie. They all knew about Sanli. There was no story about anyone gathered here. Most of them were a group of poor people. Sanli is not even the most miserable one.
But it's different. They are now full of hope for the future. As long as they follow closely behind their boss, their wishes will one day become a reality. They have found a way forward!
On the other side, in the Tianji Valley, Guo Jing and his wife finally found Huang Yaoshi after all the hard work. It turned out that Huang Yaoshi had been staying in the Tianji Palace to solve the famous Ten Questions of Tianji.
The eighth question of the Ten Questions on Heaven's Secret, "The Confusion of the Meridian" (Measuring the Accurate Length of the Meridian), and the ninth question, "The Strange Calculation of Sun Variations" (Using Quaternary Technique to Calculate the Sun's Gain and Contraction Product Difference), are all astronomical calculations, which are very complicated. Entered the world's top Tianyuan Four Elements Technique.
Even so, it did not stump Huang Yaoshi. It was not until the last question of "Yuan Beyond the Yuan" (finding a method to find the solution to any yuan) that it stumped him. He has been searching for a year and still has not found any answer.
During this time in Tianji Palace, Huang Yaoshi also met a talented magic wizard-Liang Xiao.
