night.
The manor of the money devil.
Ren Zhanbiao came to the living room of Qian Guizi's house.
Qian Guizi's family was sitting around the table having dinner. Among them were his wife, two daughters, and one son. The three children were not very old, all between seven or eight to ten years old.
Four servants stood beside him.
Qian Guizi heard the noise outside and was about to go out to watch, when Ren Zhanbiao walked in from outside.
"Who are you?" Qian Guizi asked.
"Master Qian, take a closer look at who I am." Ren Zhanbiao said with a serious face.
"Are you Ren Zhanbiao?" Qian Guizi looked at him carefully and recognized him. Although he had not seen him for four years and Ren Zhanbiao had grown a lot taller, his basic appearance had not changed.
"Master Qian has a good eye. Yes, I am the one."
"I didn't expect you were so lucky. I beat you like that, but you didn't die." Qian Guizi was also very surprised. "What do you want to do when you come here today?"
"I heard that Mr. Qian's family has a big business and has too much money to spend. I came here today to ask you to borrow some money to spend." Ren Zhanbiao said.
"You want to borrow money? I wonder how much you want to borrow?" Qian Guizi was also very scared at this time, but pretended to be calm on the surface.
"I will borrow as much as you have." Ren Zhanbiao said.
"Aren't you here to rob?" Qian Guizi asked.
"If you insist on saying that, there's nothing I can do about it."
"Master, the two servants who went out just now have been killed by him." At this time, Butler Zhu staggered in from the outside, pointed at Ren Zhanbiao and said to everyone.
When everyone heard this, they were shocked.
At this time, Qian Guizi winked, and the servants standing on the sides surrounded him, trapping Ren Zhanbiao in the center.
At this time, Ren Zhanbiao did not answer, but he just exerted force on his arm and raised his right palm. Then, he turned around, and all four servants' heads were crushed by his palm, killing them on the spot.
Whenever Ren Zhanbiao makes a move, he will always say dead words.
Qian Guizi's eldest wife quickly hugged the three children in her arms.
"Mom, mother, I'm scared! I'm so scared." The three children also cried in fear.
"It's okay, kids, your mother is here, don't be afraid."
"Ren Zhanbiao, no, no, no, Grandpa Ren, how much money do you want, just say it, as long as you let me go and spare the lives of my family, everything here will be yours." Qian Guizi "Plop!" With a sound, Ren Zhanbiao knelt down.
"Master Qian, it's easy to say, as long as you hand over all the money, I will definitely let your whole family go." Ren Zhanbiao said.
"Do you keep your word?" Qian Guizi asked tremblingly.
"That's natural," Ren Zhanbiao said. "Once a man has said something, it's hard to follow him."
"Okay, I'll believe you for once." Qian Guizi swallowed the saliva in his mouth and said with a trembling voice.
At this time, the money devil walked up to a big safe, opened the safe, took out all the valuable things inside, and said, "I have saved all my belongings in my life, and they are all here, and they are all for you."
Ren Zhanbiao counted all the silver taels, bank notes, land deeds, etc., totaling 40,000 to 50,000 taels.
Ren Zhanbiao took a bag and packed all these things, put it on his shoulder, and said: "Master Qian, when I carried half of your bag of pastries, you felt very distressed. Now I want to take away so much of your money." , don’t you feel bad?”
"I don't feel bad, I don't feel bad. Just take it all."
"If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place?"
"At the beginning, I was just confused and angry, and I did something wrong. I hoped that Grandpa Ren would be more generous, and he would not remember the villain's fault and let our whole family go." Qian Guizi lay on the ground and kept talking. Kowtow to Ren Zhanbiao.
"A moment of confusion? Do you know that your moment of confusion directly led to the death of my father and my sister? Since ancient times, murder must be repaid with life and debt must be repaid with money. Today, if I let you go, how can I be worthy of my death? Relatives?" Ren Zhanbiao said angrily.
"Grandpa Ren, you can't treat me like this. You just said it yourself that as long as I give you all my money, you will let our whole family go." Qian Guizi said.
"If I didn't say that, would you take out all the money?" As Ren Zhanbiao said this, his facial muscles began to twist, becoming terrifying and ferocious.
"You risk your life!" He picked up the money bag on his shoulder and hit the money devil on the head. He hit the money devil's face to the back, broke his neck, and died.
Qian Guizi's wife and three children were so frightened that they shouted "Ah!" and wanted to run out. Ren Zhanbiao flew in front of them, stretched out his hand and smashed the heads of the four of them, killing them all.
"Ren Zhanbiao, you are not a human being, you are a devil, you are a beast. What crime do those three children have? You actually attacked them viciously." Butler Zhu pointed at his nose and scolded him.
"Our whole family is dead. How can I make it easier for them and leave these little bastards to avenge their parents when they grow up?" Ren Zhanbiao raised his eyebrows and said angrily.
"I'm so blind. How could I have saved you, a wolf cub?" Butler Zhu was so angry that he was trembling all over. "Eleven lives, no, I'm going to report to the officials and arrest you." Follow the law."
"What did you say? Say it again!"
"I'm going to report it to the officials and ask them to cut you into pieces." Butler Zhu said.
"Uncle Zhu, do you hate me so much? Now I finally understand why Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms period killed his uncle Lu Boshe. It was all forced by the situation. I am grateful for your kindness to me, so I will give you everything. Save your kindness, but if you want to die yourself, then no wonder I am cruel and vicious. Since I have killed eleven people, I don't care about one more of you." Ren Zhanbiao said, pulling out the knife from his waist The dagger was thrown at Butler Zhu, hitting his throat. Butler Zhu fell into a pool of blood. He twitched a few times on the ground, and died soon after.
Ren Zhanbiao picked up the dagger, carried the money bag, took away the red wind horse, and then set a fire. The fire burned until dawn, turning Qian Guizi's home to ashes.
After he found a place to settle the money he had earned, he rode a horse and led a horse back to Qingfeng Village.
The next day, the news that Qian Guizi's family was brutally wiped out spread quickly.
"Brother Tang, please punish me." After Ren Zhanbiao returned to the village, he knelt in front of Tang Dalong.
"Zhan Biao, what are you doing? What mistakes have you made? Have you gone back to see your sister?" Tang Dalong didn't understand what he meant.
"No, my sister is dead." When Ren Zhanbiao said this, he couldn't help crying again.
"What, how did she die?" Tang Dalong asked emotionally after hearing this.
"He was hanged at home."
"Is there such a thing?" Tang Dalong was also very surprised, and then comforted him and said, "Zhan Biao, people can't be resurrected after death, so you have to be grieving and accept the change, don't be too sad."
"Later, I went to settle the score with the money devil."
"Zhan Biao, when you went back, you just told me that you wanted to go home to visit your sister, but you didn't say that you wanted to cause trouble with the moneybags. What did you do?"
Ren Zhanbiao killed twelve of his people and reported truthfully what happened to the Japs' manor after burning the money. However, he did not say anything about embezzling the money.
"What! Ren Zhanbiao, you are bold and impudent!" Upon hearing this, Tang Dalong slammed the table and stood up suddenly, his face livid with anger, "What did I tell you when you went up the mountain? You are not allowed to rob homes, kill people and set fires. Killing innocent people indiscriminately, you just go to the Qian Guizhi to avenge him alone, how can you kill him all over the house? What's wrong with his wife and three children? Besides, Butler Zhu is kind to you, how can you continue to do so? Did he also kill you? You are narrow-minded, cruel, ungrateful, and cruel. How can I keep you today? "
When Tang Dalong said this, he was so angry that he trembled all over and almost fainted.
"My revenge has been avenged and my wish has been fulfilled. Please take action, Brother Tang." Ren Zhanbiao said, closing his eyes and waiting for death.
Tang Dalong came to Ren Zhanbiao, raised his right palm, and was ready to strike.
If Ren Zhanbiao had resisted at this time, Tang Dalong would have killed him in a fit of rage.
However, Tang Dalong saw him kneeling there with his eyes closed, motionless, letting him do whatever he wanted without any intention of resisting, so he couldn't do anything.
Tang Dalong hesitated for a long time, and finally took back his upright right palm, sighed, and said sadly: "Do evil, do evil, no matter what, no matter what, Ren Zhanbiao, from now on, I am not your master, and you are not my apprentice. I He is not your eldest brother, and you are not my brother. There is no sworn relationship between us. Just pretend that we have never known each other. Just go away. You can go wherever you fall in love with and do whatever you want."
"Brother Tang, I have no home or relatives anymore. I won't leave. I want to stay with you and serve your old man." Ren Zhanbiao waited for a long time. When he saw that Tang Dalong didn't make a move, he opened his eyes and said.
"Shut up. I just said that we are not brothers. From now on, you are not allowed to call me brother again. You can leave."
"I won't leave. You must accept me, otherwise, I will keep kneeling here." Ren Zhanbiao said firmly.
"Okay, if you want to kneel down, you can. If you don't leave, I'll leave!" After Tang Dalong finished speaking, he turned and left.
Two days later, Tang Dalong came over and saw that Ren Zhanbiao was still kneeling there. He had not eaten or drank for two days and two nights. Tang Dalong thought that this boy was really stubborn.
Regardless of him, Tang Dalong left again.
On the morning of the third day, Tang Dalong came again, and Ren Zhanbiao was still kneeling there. Tang Dalong couldn't help but feel a little moved, and wanted to pull him up, but when he thought of his revengeful and murderous intentions, he couldn't let him go easily, so he turned around Gotta go.
At this moment, Ren Zhanbiao could no longer hold on, fell to the left, fell to the ground, and passed out.
When Tang Dalong saw it, he quickly asked his men to carry him to the bed and asked the village's medical officer to treat him.
At night, Ren Zhanbiao woke up, but his body was still very weak. He saw Tang Dalong standing at the head of the bed, struggling to get off the bed and kowtow to him.
"No need, you should have a good rest first," Tang Dalong said, "I have asked the kitchen to make you some noodle soup, you can drink it first."
At this time, someone brought the noodle soup over, and Ren Zhanbiao drank the whole bowl of noodle soup.
Two days later, Ren Zhanbiao basically recovered his physical strength and came to visit Tang Dalong again.
"Zhanbiao, since you don't want to leave, I have a book here called "Tao Te Ching". You can take it and study it carefully. From today on, you don't have to live here anymore. You can move to the back mountain, where there are In a big cave, you go to the wall and think about your mistakes. When you realize your mistakes and fully realize your mistakes, you come back." Tang Dalong said.
"Yes, Brother Tang, I will definitely reflect on my mistakes." Ren Zhanbiao said.
