The big stone that had weighed on his heart for many days fell to the ground, and Li Yuan found relief. He fell into a deep sleep. When he opened his eyes again, the heavy rain had stopped and the sky was slightly bright.
"Old Han's bone-setting skills are truly magical. With just a flick of his hand, most of the hidden injuries were gone."
Stretching his muscles and bones, Li Yuan felt clear inside and outside:
"Cool!"
Listening to the crackling sound of the joints all over his body rubbing against each other, Li Yuan felt that his internal strength had improved again, and it seemed that Qixing Heng's physical training had also made considerable progress.
"Really, self-abuse martial arts!"
Muttering in his heart, Li Daoye felt that his mood was more sunny than today's weather.
You can use the Killing Hammer whenever you want, and practice whenever you want. There is no need to avoid anyone anymore, and Cao Yan's prying eyes and suppression no longer exist at all.
Today, there are only two shopkeepers in the weapon forging shop, Lao Zhangtou and himself.
"Today, I will reward you with a dose of elixir!"
Using his fingernails, he scraped a dab of blood-enriched elixir powder to the little mouse. Li Yuan strode to the yard, waved his hand, and the exercise hammer moved through the air.
Not the White Ape Hammer, but the Fighting Killing Hammer!
…
…
The shouts of killing in the inner and outer cities continued all night long.
The next day, when the worried people opened the door, they were surprised to find that nothing happened last night.
Teams of city guards patrolled the streets, and the cold rain overnight washed away all traces.
"Captain Qiu?"
A vendor exclaimed and saw Qiu Da, who had been missing for many days, on the street.
He was wearing soap clothes and carrying a broken broadsword on his back. As usual, he hurried past with a group of government servants. Many people talked about it and were very surprised.
Only a very few people know what happened.
"There was a fire at the Sanhe Gang station, and many people died! At dawn, I saw carriages pulling countless corpses out of the city..."
"Not just the Sanhe Gang? The Firewood Gang and the Fishing Gang have also suffered! Good death. I chop wood every day, and I have to give half of my hard work to them!"
"I heard that they murdered Commander Qiu, and the adults from Shenbing Valley are here to settle the matter!"
…
Qiu Da stopped and glanced at the breakfast stall on the roadside. Several diners hurriedly lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
"Former Cao Yan, together with dozens of forces from the inner and outer cities, colluded with the big thief Nian Jiu, and murdered Magistrate Lu and Commander Qiu. They were executed last night!"
A yamen servant struck the gong and spoke loudly.
In every street, there are announcements from the government officials to reassure people and count the crimes of various forces.
Only then did the people in the inner and outer cities know what had happened, and they were all in an uproar.
To them, the power of the families who were executed were all huge behemoths. They all collapsed overnight, which naturally caused a huge shock.
"The Sanhe Gang, Chai Gang, and Fishing Gang's camps are all empty. The small bosses of each gang, as well as the recalcitrant gang members, have all been killed... The city guards are counting the seizures."
Listening to his subordinate's report, Qiu Da had no expression on his face, but he was extremely happy in his heart.
In the past few months, he had been hiding around like a rat in the gutter. He was almost hacked to death on the streets several times, but it was all thanks to these people.
"Uncle, you can rest in peace!"
Qiu Da felt sad.
Even if these murderers are executed, his uncle will never come back. The Qiu family's backbone has been broken every time. Unless he also cultivates inner strength, it will be difficult to achieve the same momentum as before.
Even the recaptured family property may not be able to be saved.
Unless I can catch the Valley of Divine Weapons again...
"The boss, there is, there is a family, nothing happened last night..."
Qiu Da suddenly raised his head. Across a long street, he had already seen the power that the yamen officer mentioned:
"The Forge!"
…
There are three hardships in the world: punting a boat and grinding iron to grind tofu.
The Forge is a powerful force in the inner and outer city, but the apprentices who join the Forge will inevitably
They are relatively the poorest group of people.
A group of government officials beat the gong to announce what happened last night. Of course, the apprentices in the blacksmith shop also heard it, but except for a few who escaped, most of the apprentices did not leave.
"The big shopkeeper is dead too?!"
Hangover Zhang Bi rubbed his brows and walked out. Hearing the news, he was immediately confused: "What, how is it possible?!"
He rushed into the crowd in three steps and looked at Cao Yan, who was like a ball of mud. He staggered and almost fainted.
"master!"
Wang Hu reacted quickly, holding Zhang Bi in place and pressing the center of his body fiercely. It took a while before Zhang Bi breathed out:
"Damn it, who wants to destroy my weapons forging shop?!"
There is no way to survive!
Qin Xiong, Tang Tong, Yu Zhen, Cao Yan...
In less than a year, the person in charge of the forging shop actually died!
"Master, my condolences!"
"Mr. Zhang, don't be too sad. Something is going to happen to you. What should we do?"
"Old Zhang..."
A group of apprentices and guards rushed up, fearing that something might happen to Zhang Bi.
"me……"
Zhang Ben gasped and then remembered: "Zhao, where is leader Zhao?"
"Zhao, leader Zhao..."
The expressions of the surrounding apprentices all changed, but Wang Hu lowered his head and replied:
"Zhao, Leader Zhao's whole family fled last night... Now, I'm afraid, I'm afraid they are all in a mass grave..."
"What?!"
Zhang Bi almost fainted again.
Listening to the chattering voices of the apprentices, he realized just how much happened last night.
More than a dozen forces in the inner and outer cities, except for the weapon forging shop, were all wiped out. Except for ordinary apprentices and gang members, all the leaders and managers were strangled by the city guards!
"Where's Li Yuan!!"
Pushing away the apprentices around him, Zhang Ben's face turned pale and he could no longer imagine it.
Wang Hu and others looked at each other, they didn't dare to take a step out of the forging shop, but when they heard the sound of the gong outside, they all looked bad.
At this time, a voice came:
"Master Li is naturally fine."
"who?"
Zhang Bi calmed down and saw a group of government officials filing in:
"Qiu Da? You, are you okay?"
Qiu Da was wanted and caused quite a stir in the past few months. Of course he knew about it, and secretly lamented that it was too late for him to leave.
"Thanks to the rescue by Lady Fang and the protection of Mr. Han, Qiu Da managed to escape with his life..."
Qiu Da clasped his fists slightly, with a gentle attitude, which made all the aggressive government officials behind him stunned. The previous ones did not have this attitude towards arresting heads.
"I hope Capt. Qiu is safe and sound."
Zhang Bi felt that he drank too much yesterday: "Who is Mr. Li that Capt. Qiu mentioned?"
"It's your old favorite disciple, Li Yuan, Uncle Li!"
"Li Yuan?!"
"Qiu, Capt. Qiu called him Uncle Li?!"
"Li Yuan, he..."
Zhang Bi was a little confused, and the apprentices were even more uproar. Even Yue Yunjin, Wu Ming and others on the side couldn't help but be stunned.
Although Qiu Da was just a head catcher, he had developed his inner strength a few years ago, and with a group of government officials under him, he was quite famous in the inner and outer cities.
"Li, Uncle Li should be having breakfast. You will know when he comes."
A yamen servant came forward and said something, always feeling awkward.
Li Yuan's reputation is not small. He is a new talent in the weapons forging shop. He is a craftsman who can make high-grade sharp blades. He has perfect hammering skills. He is regarded by Fang Nuxia as the most talented person in Gaoliu County and the half-owner of the weapons forging shop...
But a year ago, it was just a rundown settlement in Chaiyufang.
Not only them, Qiu Da was also very unhappy. He still remembered the respectful look of the apprentice he was led by Qin Xiong to interrogate half a year ago.
It’s only been a year...
…
"Old Han is so particular. There are more than a dozen in the inner and outer cities, but the blacksmith shop is left untouched."
Li Yuan was a little surprised when he was eating breakfast with a two-meter-long sledgehammer.
He naturally knows how to measure things. As Cao Yan is one of the chief culprits, it is impossible for the blacksmith shop not to be liquidated, so last night he only begged for Zhang Bi's favor.
"I didn't expect that!"
After eating the remaining steamed buns and eggs in a few mouthfuls, Li Yuan walked slowly to the forging shop, playing with the replaced long-handled six-edged hammer, feeling very reluctant to part with it.
This is the first level three weapon he has purchased, and it is a long-handled heavy hammer that suits him very well.
"It's just a third-level heavy hammer. When you enter the Valley of Divine Weapons, there may be a lot of fourth-level and fifth-level hammers!"
Comforting himself in his heart, Li Yuan walked into the forging shop.
He originally planned to go to the forging room first, but as soon as he entered the door, he noticed something was wrong. When he looked up, he saw Zhang Bi, dozens of apprentices and helpers older than him.
"What, what's wrong?"
Even Li Yuan was a little frightened by the direct gaze.
"Master Li!"
Qiu Da, who walked out of the crowd next, made Li Yuan even more stunned.
What the hell?
However, after being stunned for a moment, Li Yuan came to his senses and knew that this must be because of Han Chuijun.
After thinking about the cause and effect, Li Yuan did not correct Qiu Da's title and asked:
"What's the business of Capt. Qiu?"
When we met again a year later, Capt. Qiu had gone through a lot of changes and became a lot smoother. He cupped his fists slightly and said:
"Qiu passed by the Blacksmith's Shop and thought you might need some help, so he came here to wait..."
"helper?"
After taking a look at the people in the forging shop who had complicated and awed expressions, Li Yuan came to his senses:
"Then what?"
This master’s worship is not in vain. Do you want to leave the blacksmith’s shop to me?
No, what should be dealt with must be dealt with!
Li Yuan was thinking, while Qiu Da was holding his fists:
"As you're told!"
"so……"
Li Yuan thought for a while and said nothing, but looked at Zhang Bi: "Master, what do you think?"
"Big, Cao Yan colluded with the thieves to ambush Commander Qiu, it's like treason..."
Zhang Bi's face looked a little ugly. He hated Cao Yan for dragging everyone into trouble, but he didn't know how to deal with it, so he had to walk away:
"You, you can do whatever you want."
Seeing that Zhang Bi had nothing to say, Li Yuan thought about what was recorded in the book about how various sects dealt with rebels, and asked, "Well... where is the Cao family?"
"Go back to Mr. Li!"
The officer behind Qiu Da raised his hands and replied:
"Master Sha came before dawn and captured all the people named Cao. Now they are all in the county government office, waiting for Han Lao to fall."
"Where's Leader Zhao?"
"He, he was on the run with his family last night and was caught in the act by Mr. Sha. He was all killed."
"Where's Wang Gong?"
"He's been sent to prison, waiting to be dealt with."
"..."
Really, destroy the dead and destroy the dead, and kill decisively.
Li Yuan was speechless for a moment and glanced at the many apprentice guards with pale faces:
"Kill everyone who deserves to be killed, shopkeeper of the weapon forging shop. Now it's just me and the master. What do you want me to do?"
Qiu Da didn't say anything, he just looked at the front and back yards of the forging shop with envy.
Where is the exam teaching here?
Li Yuan's heart beat faster, he already understood.
Forging weapons shop, surnamed Li!
