The first level in the world.
He reined in his horse and stood quietly outside the pass, looking at the place he was most familiar with with a sudden look on his face.
For twenty years, I have been a handyman. Is there anywhere in this majestic pass that I don’t have my own footprints and blood and sweat?
Now that I'm back again, everything has changed.
He will be the master here!
"Oh, we're finally here!" Wen Chou Chou came out of the carriage with a bitter look on his face.
When setting off, he traveled quickly by water and land, and traveled under starry nights. It took him just over half a month to reach Yujia Village. As a result, when I came back, I stayed for seven days to enjoy the local specialties. Then just after I packed my things, the maid Xiao Min started to have a fever.
But he remembered the gang leader's instructions to ensure that Xiao Min returned to Tianxiahui safely, and he was suddenly more nervous than Duanlang. He even spent money to visit famous doctors and buy various medicines to treat her.
Treatment and conditioning were delayed for a whole month.
Then we first took the water route, which was not smooth sailing. It was either windy or raining. We even had a hole poked in the bottom of the boat while we were walking. A month later, he simply asked Duanlang to take the overland route.
There are all these, including bandits, giant tigers, venomous snakes, and poisonous insects. Countless times when he woke up, a centipede or spider bigger than a palm was lying on his face as soon as he opened his eyes. It was enough to scare away his soul several times. There are respiratory arrests.
Fortunately, although Duan Lang had a bad temper, he was still reliable and fought bloody battles to save the team from danger. However, he was also poisoned and injured several times, which delayed him for a long time.
Up to now, I have been walking for more than half a month, more than three months.
too difficult!
"Master Lang, I have to go back to the gang leader quickly. Will you come with me, or go to your yard to settle down first, and then go to the gang leader to say hello?" Wen Chou Chou was a little anxious.
He who serves others is not like these gang leaders who are big shots wherever they go. He has no power and power, and the only thing he relies on is the trust of the gang leader. After all, after being out for so long this time, no one would take his place, right?
Duan Lang smiled: "Of course I'll be with Brother Wen."
Over the past few days, his strength has improved by leaps and bounds again, and his self-confidence is no longer under Xiong Domination. In addition, his relationship with Wen Chou Chou has also been greatly improved.
He had been saved several times. To be honest, even he was touched by his sacrifice.
The only concern is, why can the spiders and centipedes that Le Ye found grow so big? Even if he knew the situation, he was shocked.
"Hahaha, let's go!" Wen Chou Chou said happily.
With his domineering temper, if he delayed for so long this time, he would be spared the death penalty, but he would not be able to escape the punishment of living. But if you really knew it was an accident, then it would be fine.
As far as he knew, what the leader of the Xiong Gang believed in most was fate.
As a saying goes, good things come only in time. Duan Lang is the one who saves the world, so God will send so many disasters. When the time comes, not only will the gang leader be delighted, but he might also be rewarded.
"General Manager Wen!" A guard leader came out from the city gate to greet him respectfully.
Secretly no one looked down upon Wen Chou Chou, a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, but in person everyone must maintain the utmost respect.
This is the right to fear!
Wen Chou Chou said arrogantly: "Little Wang, I want to take the new leader of 'Tenglong Hall' back to Duanlang to resume his duties. The team outside the city are his family and subordinates. Please help arrange it and take them to the yard allocated to Tenglong Hall." , there must be no mistake!”
"Yes, yes, I will do it immediately, little one."
"Okay! Brother Lang, let's go."
Duan Lang smiled and nodded at the leader.
What is his current status? Who is this little guard? A smile is the greatest respect for this guy!
In short, Duanlang is very swollen now!
…
All the way up the mountain.
Compared with leaving two years ago, when Duanlang looked at the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers again, he immediately felt how beautiful it was, and it was like a wonderful combination in a painting.
This is his picturesque country!
"Okay, great!"
When he was a handyman, what he hated most were those towering trees. They always dropped those damn leaves every moment of the day. If he didn't clean them up and was discovered by the steward, he would be punished.
And the person responsible for building this staircase is a dog, right? So long, so tall?
Looking back now, this towering tree is so beautifully pruned, just like the canopy used by noble people to travel, and it is a perfect match for his status at this time.
As for the climbing stairs, they were so high up. Every time he climbed one step, he was closer to the highest position he stood on.
Who was responsible for building this? It was really well built!
"Yu Chuchu, what are you looking at? Are you lazy again? If the supervisor finds out, you will be beaten again? Why, your fart didn't bloom last time?"
"What about you, didn't you hear me?"
Hearing the scolding from a maid, Duan Lang turned his head, somewhat surprised.
Unexpectedly, I met an old friend from Yujia Village in this place.
Yu Chuchu stood quietly, holding a bedpan in his hand, looking at Brother Duan who was dressed in brocade clothes on the steps. This former father wanted to entrust her with her for life and was about to become her closest person.
The girl's eyes were filled with tears for a moment.
Does he know how he has been living these days?
After traveling more than a thousand miles in the wind and the open, in the sun and rain, the father and daughter finally joined Feiyuntang of Tianxiahui as swordsmiths.
Then, my father had to forge swords for eight hours a day without rest. When he finally came back to rest, the Qilin Arm was tortured again. Soon, his wails of pain attracted the attention of others.
ill? Isn’t this harmful?
Then the father and daughter were sent directly to the servant's room to sleep, as long as they did not disturb those distinguished adults. Disturbed the handyman? It's like a dog, it doesn't matter.
Because of the distance, Yu Yue had to get up early in the morning every day, not daring to slack off at all, and rushed to Feiyuntang to complete his daily sword-making task.
no! Yu Chuchu decided to change all this, so she secretly wanted to go to the main hall of Feiyun Hall to find Bu Jingyun to confess her identity and love.
She believed that Hall Master Yun would be moved by the fact that she had traveled thousands of miles to find her husband.
Then he was discovered by patrolling guards, and both father and daughter were arrested as secret spies. The inhuman interrogation lasted for half a month without any results, and they were directly demoted to slaves worse than handymen, put in shackles, and Yue was also tattooed.
Hunger, cold, cynicism, whipping, bullying, even if she wasn't forced to die, her father's strange power attracted the attention of some people, and now even her most precious innocence has been taken away by those people.
Regret, regret every day!
She finally understood that peace and tranquility were the real happiness for people like them.
What a happy thing it would be if one day I promised my father, married Duanlang, played with cats and had fun every day, had a few more children, and enjoyed a family relationship.
It would be great to see Duanlang again now. Moreover, the person next to Duan Lang was the most aloof General Manager Wen of the entire Tianxia Association, the number one person under the gang leader.
It was he who gave the order at that time to demote the father and daughter into slaves.
It seems that their relationship is not bad. In addition, Brother Duan has an irreconcilable relationship with Nie Feng, the master of Shenfeng Hall. With his intercession, wouldn't it be easy for the father and daughter to escape from the sea of suffering?
Yu Chuchu pursed her lips and walked forward slowly, dragging the heavy shackles.
She knew that this might be her only chance in this life and she must seize it.
As for Brother Duan not caring about himself, that's impossible.
At that time, he very much hoped that his father would do things for him, and he would also be polite and amiable to him, just like an older brother.
If, if it really doesn't work, you can even give your most precious thing. As long as she can go back to the past, she is willing to sacrifice everything!
She never wanted to be a slave again!
"Ouch, who is this? It stinks so much. Someone, drag her away!" Wen Chou Chou covered his nose with a cattail leaf fan with a look of disgust on his face.
He had specially taken a bath before, put on clean clothes, and even sprinkled some incense worth a thousand gold.
Yu Chuchu paused, a trace of panic flashed across her face, and she pinched the corners of her clothes with her little hands, not knowing what to do.
She is a slave, where does she get the time and hot water to bathe. I have to empty bedpans and clean toilets every day, all day long. I finally take a break and fall asleep as soon as I close my eyes.
"Let's go!" The smart guard at the door came over quickly and grabbed Yu Chuchu's collar.
"Wait, Brother Duan, save me, Brother Duan!" Yu Chuchu said in a hoarse voice, used all her strength to get rid of the guards, rushed to Duan Lang, knelt on the ground, grabbed his feet and shouted and begged.
Just like a desperate person grabbing the last straw.
Having seen the light before, she could not bear the darkness no matter what.
"Oh, Hall Master Lang, do you know this assassin who once tried to spy on the secret information of our World Society?" Wen Chou Chou asked curiously.
As the general manager of the Tianxiahui, in addition to being good at figuring out what is going on, he also has some abilities, such as an excellent memory.
"Assassin?" Duan Lang was a little curious, but he knew that now was not the time to talk. Maybe Xiong Ba was watching him somewhere.
"do not know!"
Shaking his head, Duanlang leaned over and slowly pulled Chu Chu's little hand away, then stepped on her face and strode away.
"Brother Duan, I was wrong!" Yu Chuchu cried loudly without even feeling the pain in her hand.
Because her heart hurts even more.
The two guards were furious and punched and kicked them.
"Ah, stop fighting. I was wrong. I will never dare to fight again. I won't dare anymore. Wuwuwu..."
"How presumptuous! Even a little slave like you wants to climb the heights of the new Hall Duan Master, and he doesn't even look at what you look like! Brothers, fight me!"
"Bang bang bang!"
"The new hall master?" Yu Chuchu's screaming voice paused, her eyes lit up, and then she felt even more regretful.
It turns out dad was right!
No, she still has a chance, and she still has the most precious thing. As long as Duanlang is willing to step forward, both he and his father can be saved!
But how could she, a little slave, meet the towering master? Are you still sneaking in like last time?
No, what if I get caught again? If you fight hard, you will die if you don't fight, but if you fight, you still have a chance!
…
Tianxiahui, the main forum.
Xiongba stood at the top of the steps, high up.
"Duanlang, you are very loyal, that's right! This is the unparalleled sword that Nie Feng brought back, and I give it to you!"
"Qiang~"
After a sword cry, the Wushuang sword was thrust straight in front of Duan Lang, and the sword cry continued.
After this fortune-telling by the Clay Bodhisattva, he really saw clearly the thoughts of these so-called loyal ministers and righteous men in the Tianxiahui. What about Fengyun and his two direct disciples who have taught them carefully since childhood and taught each other everything they have?
Success comes and failure comes, that is, whenever I treat them badly, they will turn against me.
If the king wants his ministers to die, the ministers have to die; if the father wants his son to die, the son has to die. This Fengyun doesn't even know what the way of king and minister is, the way of father and son.
But Duanlang was different. He had worked as a handyman in the Tianxiahui for twenty years and had no objections. When faced with Wushuang City's solicitation, he refused directly. She even wanted to kill him. When she went to Duanlang to find the Ni Bodhisattva, she didn't even tell him her fortune. She just wanted to send him here as soon as possible.
This is true loyalty!
And as a handyman, he still practices martial arts hard. Even in terms of strength, he is not inferior to Bu Jingyun who only pretends to be serious and plays carving all day long.
The key to such loyalty and hard work lies in the well-organized and capable subordinates who manage the village. If we don't promote them, how can we promote those two white-eyed wolves in Fengyun?
Of course, Fengyun has not turned against him yet, so as a superior, the only thing he has to do is to balance.
"Thank you, leader!" Duanlang said, cupping his fists.
Xiong Ba nodded with satisfaction. This was what he liked most about Duan Lang, knowing what was interesting.
It doesn't matter if a person is ambitious. But if everyone is like Bu Jingyun, putting on a dead face all day long, who will show it?
And so what if you are ambitious? These young people are inferior to me in talent, martial arts, and age. If they want to catch up, it will take at least twenty or forty years.
But at that time, he was already the supreme king in the world. With all kinds of great medicines and treasures, how far could his realm reach?
Give these little guys time to catch up, and eventually they will know what it means to be out of reach!
He stepped forward and patted Duan Lang's shoulders lightly a few times. He saw his head lowered, smiling majestically, going out, standing with his hands behind his back, and looking into the distance.
The winding mountains are winding and circling, like a sleeping giant dragon.
Looking down below, white clouds fill the air. Looking around the peaks, there are clouds and mist. The tops of each mountain peak peek out from the clouds and mist, like hibiscus emerging from the water.
Duan Lang put his hands on his belly and stood respectfully behind him.
"Duan Lang, I am old and tired. Take a look at this picturesque country, do you think it is beautiful?" Xiong Ba asked with a smile.
Duan Lang raised his head and responded respectfully: "Beautiful, very beautiful! However, the gang leader is at the peak of his age and has great skills. From what I see, even after a thousand years, you can still stand here and overlook the world."
"Hahahaha~ You!" Xiongba stretched out his hand and nodded, sighing: "Time makes people grow old. Duanlang! Do your best, the future is yours!"
"My subordinates dare not!"
"Hahahaha." Xiongba laughed.
Don't dare? When he faced his dearest master back then, he had always been respectful, but at the critical moment, who wouldn't dare?
I'm afraid it's just ordinary people.
This Duanlang is definitely not it.
"I'll give you three months and one hundred thousand taels of gold. Whether you recruit people from other halls or recruit people from outside, you must build Tenglong Hall and not be under Feiyun Hall.
Is it possible? "Xiong Ba suddenly put away his smile and asked in a deep voice.
Duanlang was startled, why did he have to compare with Feiyuntang? Could it be...
"Um?"
"I will not give up even if I die!"
"Okay, let's get down."
"yes!"
…
