After coming out of Lei Peng's house, Ma Liu spent a lot of money to buy many books for Zhang Aotian.
He also spent two hundred taels of silver to hire him from the most famous private school near Caishikou.
The plan couldn't keep up with the changes. Lao Liu originally wanted to teach the children himself, but now Sun Long is eyeing him, and he will have to do less cheating in the future.
Before, he only wanted to enjoy Zhang Aotian's appointment as an official.
Lei Peng's words today suddenly made him realize the importance of having someone on officialdom.
When people live in this world and want to live well, they don’t have to have power or influence, but there cannot be less powerful people behind them.
Otherwise, when a crisis comes one day, he will be sentenced to death and his head will really fall to the ground.
The two were walking hand in hand on the street, and Ma Liu asked:
"Is the fish demon soup good?"
"It doesn't taste good, it's too fishy."
Zhang Aotian rubbed his belly, looked left and right, curious about everything he saw, as if he didn't take today's events to heart, and was in a good mood.
Ma Liu has been observing the child's performance.
A child over four years old saw a dead person and a demon. Although his face turned pale, he was still calm. He did not lose his composure in front of Lei Peng, and he still had the courage to drink up the bowl of fish demon soup. He was really brave. .
"If he is born into a higher family and is born into a famous family, this child will definitely be a figure in the future."
In any era, it is difficult for a person from a humble background to get ahead. Even if he has the ambition to become a successful person and enters the officialdom, he has no background and no resources. In the end, he can only become a petty official.
Taking Zhang Aotian to see Lei Peng today was to pave the way for the child.
"In the future, you must study hard with the Master. Only if you study well can you become a high official. If you can't even pass the exam, then just be your second generation butcher."
After a pause, Ma Liu said:
"Maybe you can't even become a second-generation butcher. Lieutenant Lei must have fallen in love with you, so he was so kind and let you drink soup. If you become a butcher in the future, I'm afraid he will kidnap you into the skin-picking department. It’s hard to kill a whole body.”
"I don't want to be a butcher."
Zhang Aotian shook his head vigorously and said:
"Butchers will be bullied. I want to be an official. If I don't bully others, others can't bully me either."
"Ambitious."
Ma Liu praised it and bought a bunch of candied haws for the child. From a distance, he saw a strong man standing in front of the butcher shop, talking and laughing with Aunt Yang.
Looking at the situation, most of them were flirting.
Zhang Aotian suddenly felt that the candied haws had no flavor anymore.
"Sixth Master, this man always harasses my mother. He even sneaked into my house at night and hugged her. I pretended to be asleep and saw him."
"Then did your mother resist?"
"Maybe not."
Zhang Aotian suddenly felt a little aggrieved, as if his mother was leaving him.
Ma Liu couldn't interfere in this matter, so he could only squat down and comfort him:
"It's hard for your mother, a weak woman, to pull you along. The world is difficult, but with a man to help her, your mother can always feel more relaxed."
"Sixth Master, why don't you let my mother be your concubine?"
Zhang Aotian said seriously, his little eyes full of expectation.
He knew that Mr. Liu was a very powerful person. If his mother had a child, she would definitely not be qualified to be his wife. However, his mother was the best woman in the world, so she could still be a concubine.
Ma Liu's face twitched. A grown man in his twenties was rendered speechless by a child.
"Who did you hear this from? Even my concubine knows about it at such a young age."
"I was in the shop and heard what people on the street said."
"..." Ma Liu: "Master Liu, I am determined to be an immortal, and I am not very interested in women. The lifespan of a woman in this world is only fifty or sixty. In Master Liu's opinion, it is just a flash in the pan. Your mother and I are really not suitable for each other."
"All right."
Zhang Aotian's face was full of disappointment, he failed to recognize his father, and suddenly became interested in "immortal way" again.
"Sixth Master, can I become an immortal?"
"Cultivation can be done, but the road to practice is full of dangers. If you don't pay attention, you will become a corpse in a sewing shop."
"Then I don't want it."
Zhang Aotian's face turned pale and he was still frightened.
At this time, the books Ma Liu bought were also delivered. There was enough for a cart to move almost half of the bookstore back home.
When the muscular man in front of the door saw him, he didn't dare to say anything, turned around and left.
In the past few years, Ma Liu has become a legend in Caishikou. Although no specific deeds have been reported, the neighbors know that he has skills.
Anyone who knows a little bit about boxing and kicking knows that Mr. Liu is full of evil spirits. It is obvious at a glance that he has killed many people in the past few years, but he is not arrested by the government and goes unpunished. How can the neighbors be disrespectful when they see such a person?
Some people also saw Mr. Liu entering and leaving Jiyao Yamen, and he seemed to be dealing with ghosts. How could they not be afraid?
After Zhang Aotian was settled, night had fallen. Seeing that Ma Liu was about to leave, Aunt Yang said worriedly:
"Master Liu, please stay at home for the night. It's best not to go out after dark."
"It doesn't matter. I'm going to catch ghosts tonight. I hope that brain-eating ghost dares to show up."
Killing people will cause trouble, but if you don't kill people, it's better to quietly turn Sun Long into an idiot and eliminate the threat.
…
It’s still Chunfeng Tower.
Ma Liu ordered the entire table of dishes and just watched and waited quietly, believing that Sun Long would definitely take revenge.
After all, things were too coincidental and Lei Peng arrived at just the right time. As long as Sun Long had some brains, he would have known that he fell into someone else's trap to kill people and seize the treasure.
until late at night.
Sun Long, covered in black robes, stood at the highest point of Hualiu Alley, overlooking the Chunfeng Tower in the distance, with murderous intent boiling in his heart.
There is a figure beside him, wearing night clothes, with only his eyes exposed.
"I have investigated the identity of this person clearly. The eleventh pickpocket of the Pickpocket Division is not very strong and has not yet reached the Taoist realm, but he is highly respected by Lei Peng. I advise you not to act rashly."
"Is this the end of the matter?"
Sun Long was furious.
If his backing wasn't strong enough and his utilization value wasn't high enough, Caishikou would have moved his head this afternoon.
Black Shadow said:
"If you kill this guy, Lei Peng will definitely cause trouble for you. Although he is just a school captain, the Lord is not willing to provoke him. When the time comes, people will beat you to death on the grounds that you killed a pickpocket. The Lord will not Revenge for you."
Sun Long was not convinced.
"Kill this Ma Liu and I will flee far away. I don't believe Lei Peng can catch me."
"You underestimate me too much."
The shadow shook his head and said:
"Lei Peng's strength seems to be at the peak of the Three Realms, but in fact it has reached the Fourth Realm. The energy converted into mana is no worse than those enshrined by the royal family. If he wants to kill you and uses the Thousand Mile Soul Locking Technique, you run away. Even if you go to the end of the world, you won’t be able to escape this massacre.”
"Besides."
The black shadow reminded:
"This Ma Liu knows that you will take revenge, yet he dares to come to Chunfeng Tower in a big way. He has made it clear that he is waiting for you to come. If he is not 100% sure to deal with you, is he tired of living?"
Sun Long looked struggling.
And Heiying's next words completely extinguished his thoughts of taking action.
"The Lord asked me to warn you, don't rely on favoring him just because you have done something for him. If you cause trouble again, there will be a place for you in the mass grave outside the city."
The black shadow knew how to control people. After warning him, he turned to comfort and said:
"It's not that the Lord won't let you take revenge. If you have the strength of the Three Realms now, even if you rush into the Chunfeng Tower and beat the horse into a pulp with one palm, the Lord will settle everything for you. It's just your own incompetence. ."
Sun Long was silent, turned and left.
"I had an unexpected encounter a few days ago. My life expectancy increased greatly. Sooner or later, the pickpocket in the leather shop was killed by the demon. When he dies, I will urinate on the grave and dig up the corpse to feed the dogs."
