Back at the house, Mu Yun called all the maids and servants over, and several of them stood in a row in front of him, waiting for his resignation.
Mu Yun said: "I provoked some people from the Shui Faction in the teahouse today. I guess they will come to cause trouble tonight. To be honest, I can't trust you. You are doing things with money, and you probably don't even want to risk your life."
The servants were silent.
Mu Yun continued, "Then I'll give you a chance to risk your life."
These words made the servants startled, and they all raised their heads and looked at him.
Mu Yun imitated Chen Wu's smile and asked, "I asked you before if you knew my identity, right?"
They nodded silently.
Mu Yun continued: "My identity is not just Si Ye, I also have another identity. Do you want to hear it? But let me tell you first. Once you know my identity, you can only work for me down-to-earth in the future. If outsiders find out... you will be silenced by Xiaozhu."
A maid hurriedly said: "Master! I don't want to know your identity!"
As he said that, he was about to walk out.
Mu Yun said: "Do you think there is a possibility that if you accept the task of protecting me, you will be silenced in the end?"
The maid who had just reached the door froze.
"My identity is too special, so special that the big leader even risked the destruction of Xiaozhu to bring me back. For a person like me, the more you know about me, the more dangerous I will be. I don't know how long I will stay here. The longer you stay in contact with me, the more you know, and the more you know... the more Xiaozhu has to kill you."
As soon as he finished speaking, all the servants knelt down.
"Sir, have mercy! You guys are just following orders! Don't embarrass us."
Mu Yun sneered: "Embarrassed? In the profession of a killer, your head is pinned to your waistband, and you have to be aware of losing your head at any time. Are you like this after being frightened by me? You are a bunch of losers. Let me ask you, what have you done before? Are you really my subordinate?"
One of the subordinates bit his lip and replied, "Sir, actually, none of us are your subordinates. We were all transferred from other leaders... To be honest, none of us have ever met you."
"What about my former subordinates?"
"I don't know...but there are rumors that they were all secretly executed by the big leader..."
"Look, I didn't lie to you, right? If you get involved with me, you will end up badly... Do you want to live?"
"We want to live."
"That's good," Mu Yun stood up from the chair, "I'm not a vicious person. If you obey, I will find a way to save your lives. I believe you are aware of Xiaozhu's situation. You should also be aware of my amnesia. I understand, it’s impossible to run away, just help me...but don’t worry, I won’t let you die.”
"Thank you, Master!"
"Of course, you should continue to do what you should report to Luzhou. But, I hope you can distinguish between what should be said and what should not be said."
"My subordinate understands... then... Young Master, what happened today?"
"This matter must be reported. Okay, if there is nothing else, go down and have a good rest. There may be another fight tonight."
At this time, someone asked cautiously: "Sir... you... haven't said your identity yet..."
Mu Yun picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "Didn't I say it? Didn't you hear it? Do you need me to say it again?"
"No need! No need!"
After everyone left, Chen Wu smiled and said, "Can't you tell, you learned the art of pretentiousness very well. You surrendered them in just a few words."
"It's just superficial obedience, how can it be that simple? But this is enough, we have to let them know that we are not easy to get along with."
"If that's the case, can Hongqiao use it?"
"Let's settle the situation in the teahouse first."
…
There are no well-known sects in Raozhou. After all, those who have some pursuits go to Poyang Lake to become bandits.
The Water Sect is considered one of the few Baidao forces in Raozhou. Taking advantage of the overall downturn in Jiangnan martial arts in recent years, they even thought about dominating the entire Jiangnan.
Although there are only a few dozen disciples on the surface, it doesn't matter. As long as they are open to recruiting people, it will not be a problem to expand to 200 people in two or three years. The Songshan sect only had more than 300 people, and they dared to call themselves the Great Northern Gang. They even held a martial arts conference last year. The Dianshui sect could achieve such an achievement even if it worked hard.
Who would have known that before the journey to dominate Jiangnan began, three of his disciples would be beaten on their own territory.
The leader, Tie Qingqing, was very angry. Regardless of right or wrong, he hit his apprentice on his own territory. What was the difference between that and hitting himself in the face?
But immediately, Tie Qingqing lost his anger and turned a little happy: Isn't this an opportunity? In the afternoon, he sent someone to inquire about the boy. He was nothing more than a young master who knew a little bit about kung fu and didn't have much manpower. He just wanted to use him to show off his power and show his strength to the surrounding sects.
There are now forty-six disciples in the sect. They are all called forward. They also sent people to Poyang Lake Tianshui Village to invite more than thirty people. This team of eighty people is quite large. Each one is strong and looks good. Quite bluffing.
It's enough to deal with a rich young man who has some skills. As for whose young man he is, it doesn't matter. Anyway, when he reaches the border of Raozhou, the King of Heaven will have to give him Tie Qingwu some respect.
At night, more than eighty people held torches high and rushed to Mu Yun's house like the wind.
On the way there, Tie Wuqing thought to himself: According to the disciples who were beaten, what was the name of that rich young man Ye? Forget it, no matter what his name is, let’s clean it up first. A person is beaten and thrown into Poyang Lake. Whether he can climb back up depends on his luck.
…
After dinner, Mu Yun moved a chair and placed it under the willow tree in the middle, sat on it comfortably, closed his eyes and rested. Several of his men stood beside him, ready to go.
Not long after, he saw a swarm of torches coming towards him.
Chenwu thought thoughtfully: "I said...it doesn't look like there are more than forty people?"
"Well, it looks like there must be eighty people."
"Hey! Those three grandsons lied to me!"
"Isn't this nonsense? Is it possible for someone to tell the truth?"
"We can't defeat so many people."
Mu Yun smiled: "Didn't you say that? If you can't beat me, just run away."
"Run back to Luoyang?"
"Don't keep thinking about Luoyang."
While thinking wildly, the wave of people had already arrived, led by a middle-aged man in brocade clothes and jade robes with an ashen complexion. Judging from his thick palms, he must be a master of boxing and kicking.
There were more than eighty people making noisy noises, and it took a long time for them to quiet down. Someone had already put down a chair, and a man with an ashen complexion sat across from Mu Yun, looking very dignified.
"This young master," the man spoke in a low voice, "did you beat my apprentice today?"
Mu Yun asked, "Those three are your apprentices?"
"That's right."
"Oh, I did it."
"Dare to take action, you have the guts."
"good."
"Should we talk to those who hit me in my territory?"
"Uh... I haven't asked for advice yet. Who is your Excellency?"
"Head of the Dianshui Sect, Tie Qingqing."
"...You gave me this name...Oh, what do you want the Iron Master to say?"
"I apologize, I cut off one of my arms, and I won't be allowed to come near Raozhou from now on."
Mu Yun nodded and said, "It's okay, I can accept it."
The person opposite was a little puzzled: Wasn’t it quite crazy this morning? Seeing how many people came from my side, I was scared.
Mu Yun stretched out his hand, made a gesture of invitation, and asked: "Well, do you think your three disciples will each have a hand cut off? Or can one person represent you? I don't care, you have to be merciful and be merciful." "
When he said this, there was an uproar on the other side. After talking together for a long time, he thought that this large group of people came to apologize to him.
Someone shouted: "Don't follow him
nonsense! Just chop it up and throw it into Poyang Lake to feed the fish! "
Shouting and cursing came and went, but Mu Yun remained unmoved.
Tie Qingqing sneered: "There are only about ten people in your mansion, so if you are a good man, don't force us to take action!"
As he spoke, he slapped the armrest and made a "pop" sound. As the sound sounded, a very subtle sound of arrows piercing the air came from behind Mu Yun. A person next to Tie Wuqing screamed, and only the socket of his right eye was visible. An arrow was inserted. The man fell to the ground and struggled a few times before losing his vitality.
Tie Qingqing was furious: "How dare you hurt anyone?!"
Mu Yun was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the person secretly protecting him here was actually someone from Yi Gongmen. I had a fight with this group of people years ago and knew that they had unique archery skills and were best at killing people in secret.
The eighty people couldn't bear it anymore and took out their weapons one after another, expecting to have a fight.
Tie Qingqing was really mad. The rules of the world were to talk first, and then take action when they couldn't reach an agreement. As a result, the stupid young man in front of him didn't even want to go through the cutscene, and just fired arrows to kill people. The Raozhou Wulin has not seen such unreasonable behavior for many years. Even if it is a case of water bandits and fire, it must be explained clearly first.
Following Tie Qingqing's rage, seven or eight more arrows were shot from all directions, and in the blink of an eye, six or seven more people were shot to the ground.
The group of people who were quite arrogant at first suddenly became angry. This rich man is not simple. It seems that the information is false. There are more than ten people in his house. Looking at the direction in which the arrows were shot just now, they were shot from several different directions at the same time. Moreover, the handsome young man just sat on the chair with his legs crossed and did not give any orders at all. How did the archers hiding in the dark get the order to release arrows at the same time?
Someone whispered to Tie Qingqing: "Master, even if we include those archers, there are only more than twenty people, so we still have the advantage!"
Mu Yun said helplessly: "Who said I have more than 20 people here? Can you just accept it as soon as you see it? Didn't I report my name this morning? Why do you dare to come here? Are you so not afraid of death?"
Tie Wuqing thought about it for a moment. When his apprentice came back, he seemed to have asked the name of the person who beat them. But at that time, he was so angry that he didn't hear the name clearly. He just went through it in his mind. Now he has the power in the world. There seems to be no powerful person with the word "night" in their name.
Watching out for the archers in the dark, Tie Qingqing didn't dare to take action without permission. He suppressed his anger and asked, "Who is your surname?"
Mu Yun spread his hands and became even more helpless: "My name is Si Ye, do you hear me clearly?"
Tie Qingwu felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He looked a little dull. He asked in confusion: "Si Ye? Isn't Si Ye dead?"
Last year, leader Si Ye of Yeyu Xiaozhu fell off a cliff and died. This was a big deal, and everyone with respectability had heard about it.
Mu Yun shrugged: "Obviously, I'm not dead."
