Chapter 252: It’s Hard to Understand Clearly, Revisit the Old Place, Common People (5K)

It was from this moment that he truly fell from the clouds into the abyss, and experienced firsthand the laws of the jungle that belong exclusively to the bottom.

Survival has replaced life.

Every day is full and busy, but the days are like years.

Time flies, and another year has passed.

Unkempt hair, knotted clothes, poverty... these have become the norm.

Until today.

Inside the dilapidated wooden house, there was leakage even though it rained all night.

"Beggar, join the little beggar gang with me, and I'll show you where to eat and drink."

There were two people in the house, both beggars. One was in rags, and the other was neatly dressed in coarse linen, which added a bit of wealth.

At this time, the beggar in sackcloth was persuading the beggar in ragged clothes.

I hope that this guy who gave me a way to survive when I was down and out will go to a small beggar to enjoy the blessings with me.

Although the Little Begging Gang was established not long ago and is inconspicuous in the entire border city, it at least has a place to stay.

After a long period of hard work, he has now become the leader of a small beggar gang with his ruthless personality.

As little as half a tael or as much as one tael of silver is deposited into his account every month. This money is enough for him to live an ordinary life.

But he is not satisfied with the status quo. He wants to earn more money, become a more powerful boss, live a better life, and enjoy the most beautiful women.

So he needs help.

"Su Qier, you are very strong and rough-skinned. As long as you practice some boxing and kicking skills, you might be able to become a warrior. Then our brothers will join forces to kill the Black Bull and become the big boss of the little beggar gang. Then every day there will be Put money into your account and live a life like a master!"

Seeing that Su Qier didn't speak, the beggar in sackcloth looked slightly ugly, but he still continued to persuade.

In the entire Border City, he was the only one who knew that this seemingly old beggar was actually more powerful than the average young beggar.

The rain was pouring down outside, and there was deathly silence in the house, with the faint sound of snoring ringing intermittently.

After waiting for a long time, the beggar in sackcloth still didn't get any reply from Su Qier. Instead, the other party fell asleep impatiently.

His face darkened, a look of displeasure flashed in his eyes, and finally he snorted softly.

"This is one tael of silver, think of it as my repayment of your kindness." He deliberately left one tael of silver behind to try to wake up Su Qier.

After all, as a beggar, you may not have seen even broken silver, let alone one tael of silver.

This time I left a tael of silver in the hope that Su Qier would not be able to withstand the temptation and agree to join the small begging gang.

Tap tap tap.

The sound of hurried footsteps sounded harshly in the rain.

A beggar, also wearing sackcloth, ran in with a panic expression and said nervously: "Boss, it's not good, Black Bull has brought people to kill him."

Before he finished speaking, bursts of roars surged up and down in the rainy night, piercing the night sky.

"How many people?" the beggar in sackcloth asked, pretending to be calm.

"Seven or eight big men!" the beggar said tremblingly.

Hearing this, the beggar in linen's face turned as white as wax. He had already gained momentum in the small beggar gang and seemed to have the qualifications to become the big boss.

In the same neighborhood, Naturally inevitably comes into conflict with Black Bull, who wants to replace Black Bull, who also wants to stifle the threat.

The two sides have long been at odds with each other.

When he came to find Su Qier this time, he only brought two of his men with him. He didn't expect to be discovered by Hei Niu, who seized the opportunity and wanted to kill himself.

"Boss, let's run." Another subordinate reminded.

At that moment, the beggar in sackcloth no longer hesitated, turned around and entered the back door of the shabby house, wanting to leave through another street.

After just a few steps, he suddenly stopped and looked at Su Qier, who was lying in the dilapidated house, with a tangled look on his face.

"Su Qier, hide quickly."

After leaving a word, he walked across the yard and was about to leave.

Suddenly.

A cold light flashed past his eyes, causing his expression to change drastically: "No, stop now."

"Quack, quack, I didn't expect to be dodged by you." Hei Niu brought two beggars in through the back door and looked at the beggars in linen clothes with a sneer.

There was a dull knife in his hand more than before.

He has never used the knife easily, but in order to kill the beggar in sackcloth, he deliberately used the knife.

Not long after the black cow appeared, four beggars poured in from the front door, each holding a wooden stick and their hungry wolf-like eyes gleaming fiercely.

The three of them were completely surrounded.

"Hei Niu, what do you want to do?" the beggar in linen asked.

Hei Niu grinned cruelly: "Can't you understand? I'm going to kill you!"

"Aren't you afraid that the gang leader will punish you if he finds out about this?" The beggar in sackcloth shuddered and carried out the gang leader.

He knew that Hei Niu was afraid of the gang leader, so now he had no choice but to come up with this strategy to scare Hei Niu.

Unexpectedly, Hei Niu laughed even louder: "Just now, the leader of the gang was killed by me, now it's your turn."

"What?!" The beggar in linen was shocked when he heard this, and then he noticed the blood stains on the black cow knife.

He glanced around and quickly discovered that these big men were not from the Black Bull, which made his face stern: "Did you join the Iron Ring Gang?"

"Hmph, there are so many questions when you are about to die. Should you leave on your own, or should I send you away?" Hei Niu snorted coldly and flashed the dull knife that exuded a cold luster.

The sackcloth beggar was desperate in his heart, but his expression remained normal. He said, "Hei Niu, let me live. From now on, I will never appear in your sight."

"Dream!" Hei Niu sneered, and with an order, everyone attacked.

Seven people versus three people, the former armed with weapons and the latter unarmed. No matter in terms of numbers or strength, they all crushed the Mai Yi beggar's side.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, the balance of victory tilted towards Black Bull.

"Brother Zhang, let's cover you, leave quickly!" The two men of the beggar in sackcloth shouted.

In the chaos of sticks, the two of them were covered in bruises and could not hold on for long.

After hearing this, the beggar in sackcloth turned red, with hatred and anger flooding in his pupils. He looked at the two men and said, "I will definitely avenge you."

"Stop him." Hei Niu shouted, and four of his men immediately chased him away.

After all, the broken house was too small, and the beggar in sackcloth was eventually surrounded.

The difference was that last time he had two men, but this time he was the only one left.

Hei Niu looked down at the defeated like a victorious general, his smile full of mockery. He looked at the beggar in sackcloth and said sternly: "I originally wanted you to live for a few more days, but in the end you insisted on seeking death, so I had no choice but to send the gang leader and you on the road. ”

His eyes suddenly became fierce, and murderous intent surged: "If you have any last words, just tell the gang leader on Huangquan Road."

After saying that, the six people stepped forward and subdued the beggar in linen clothes easily. The beggar in linen clothes smiled sadly, his face was ashen.

I thought that joining a small beggar gang would have a bright future, but I never thought that in the end, I didn't even have the right to choose to die.

"Oh, by the way, we will also kill the beggar who pretended to be sleeping. No one will be left alive."

Suddenly, the black cow raised his mouth.

After all, it was a murder. Once the government knew about it, there would inevitably be trouble. He never liked trouble.

Two wooden sticks were placed on the heads of the beggar in sackcloth and Su Qier. The beggar in sackcloth closed his eyes and welcomed death.

"well!"

A slight sigh fell, but the life-threatening dull knife did not fall for a long time.

The beggar in sackcloth was puzzled. He slowly opened his eyes and saw corpses lying on the ground.

"What, what's going on?" The beggar in linen was as stunned as a statue, and he was stunned in place.

He quickly reacted and said in shock: "Yes, it was Su Qier who did it!"

Su Qier was no longer seen in the house.

"He, who is he?"

No one answered him, and the room became quiet again.

This sigh was full of helplessness and desolation, and it also meant that Su Chen's year-long life of a beggar was over.

Related to the linen beggar, but not much.

The friendship between the two is not deep, and there is not much kindness between them over a meal.

He knew the thoughts of Mai Yi Beggar. The other party wanted to use him more to seek greater rights and more wealth.

The real reason is Mingxin.

The moment he wanted to take action, he knew that it was impossible for him to rely on his status as a beggar to reveal his true feelings.

So he rescued the beggar in sackcloth and took away a tael of silver at the same time, which he regarded as money to buy his life.

After Yang Guo, Su Qier turned back into Su Chen.

Mingxin's failure made Su Chen a little disappointed. He ran all the way and left the border city.

I don’t know how far I have traveled, I just know that the heavy rain has stopped, and the bright moon hidden by dark clouds has revealed a corner, casting a faint light.

Su Chen stood in the wilderness, like a pine tree, standing motionless.

One night passed, when the morning light of the rising sun fell on Su Chen, he slowly opened his eyes.

The disappointment of last night was swept away, replaced by indifference.

After a night, Su Chen still hadn't figured out why he failed, but he accepted the failure calmly.

"Ascend to the clouds and fall into the abyss. Next, return to your identity as an ordinary person."

After gathering his mood, Su Chen embarked on the long journey again.

He did not deliberately create an identity, but decided to return to his original self and continue to understand his heart.

Only by not forgetting your original intention can you achieve success.

He walked aimlessly and stopped, and a year passed by his feet.

Unknowingly, I came to the Daqian Dynasty.

"Forget it, let's go back and take a look."

I am even more timid when I am close to my hometown.

Baishi City, the starting point of dreams, carries many memories of Su Chen.

When he came back this time, he suddenly had endless memories.

He was not a sentimental person, but he couldn't help but feel a little sad.

After entering Baishi City, everything seems to be the same as before, but also different from before.

He understood that Baishi City had not changed, but he was the one who had changed.

Following the route in his memory, Su Chen walked step by step towards the place buried deep in his memory.

This is his first residence after time travel, and it is also his only home.

A dilapidated courtyard house.

It has not been demolished yet. The wind and rain over the past few years have only added a little bit of wind and frost.

"Cuckoo."

There is a family of five living in the courtyard room.

The husband is not at home, the old woman is weaving, the eldest daughter is cooking, the second daughter is feeding the chickens, and the younger son is playing in the yard, everything is harmonious.

"Is there anything you need?"

The sun was about to set. The husband, who had been busy for a day, looked at the young man at the door with curiosity and a bit of vigilance, with a smile of sweat and success.

Su Chen shook his head and said nothing. Under his husband's gaze, he turned and left.

Next, Su Chen went to Hong Ming's house.

It is also inhabited.

However, compared to his old courtyard house, Hong Ming's residence was renovated and became more gorgeous.

The person who bought Hongming Martial Arts School is still a martial artist.

In the courtyard, more than a dozen warriors were practicing martial arts.

Those who stood, those who practiced boxing, those who lifted stones... there were bursts of "hum hum ha ha" sounds.

"Little brother, do you want to come to our Linghou Boxing Gym to practice martial arts with a master?" A student practicing martial arts in the courtyard saw Su Chen at the door and came up to ask, "It's not expensive. You only need three taels of silver to learn for half a year. Once you master it, you can You can work as a guard or escort for a wealthy family."

Seeing that Su Chen smiled and did not answer, the student invited: "Little brother, you can come in and take a look."

With that said, he took Su Chen's arm and led him into the yard.

While entertaining him warmly, he introduced the benefits of joining a martial arts gym to Su Chen in detail.

After finishing the round, Su Chen never said a word, which made the students a little embarrassed.

If it weren't for Su Chen's pretty good outfit, he wouldn't be so enthusiastic, but now it seems that his enthusiasm seems to be directed at the wrong person.

He pursed his lips, unwilling to give up such a customer, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Let's do this. I'll teach you a few tricks. You can go back and practice to see if it has any effect."

Su Chen nodded and looked at the students.

The students did not hesitate and taught him as he was told, but there were not many moves, only three.

The monkey explores the road, the monkeys play, and the monkey king fights for hegemony.

The moves are very common, but the name is extremely loud.

After finishing the three moves, the student breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Su Chen with a smile.

Su Chen did not disappoint him. He took out ten taels of silver from his pocket, handed it to the smiling student, and said, "This is my tuition fee."

"Our tuition is three taels..." The student took the money and said hesitantly.

"Just think of it as a reward for teaching me in advance." Su Chen said with a smile.

After hearing this, the student accepted the money and sent Su Chen away with a smile.

Su Chen continued to wander around Baishi City, visiting both the outer city and the inner city, and the memory of Baishi City gradually returned.

In the past, Su Chen spent most of his time practicing, so how could he have such a leisurely time wandering around.

After walking around for a while, I completely completed the scenery of Baishi City.

He discovered that the arena where martial arts competitions were held to recruit brides was still there, and there were still people competing to recruit brides.

Of course, the woman who recruited the bride has been changed, and the girl who used to be married must have been married.

After shopping, Su Chen stayed in Baishi City.

Stayed for a month.

In the past month, Su Chen rarely had a leisurely time.

Not as busy as a national master, nor as struggling as a beggar, but more of a leisurely life after retirement.

When people are leisurely, their hearts are also leisurely.

Life has become more regular.

When Su Chen gets up early in the morning, he will practice boxing for half an hour. The Iron Wire Boxing skills from back then seem to be engraved in his bones and are unforgettable.

Then he would go out to have breakfast at a roadside stall to simply satisfy his appetite.

Then, either listen to music, watch a show, eat or drink, or play chess, calligraphy and painting...

Enjoy life, cultivate your sentiments, and be happy.

Over time, there were no worries, but they became the biggest worries.

Three months later, Su Chen left Baishi City and headed for Dafeng City.

Today's Dafeng City has long become the core city of Donglin Mansion.

The original concept has been completed after these years of hard work, and four major cities guard Dafeng City.

Dafeng City is the inner city, and the four major cities have become the outer city. The entire city can accommodate millions of people, and it is so prosperous.

Moreover, the martial arts in Dafeng City are also thriving. Instead of declining due to the disappearance of the major families, it has become one of the cities with the strongest comprehensive strength in the entire Daqian Dynasty.

There are not as many warriors in the blood-moving realm as there are dogs, but they are not uncommon either.

Su Chen came to Fengbei City.

The position of Qiao Mansion has not changed, but the current Lord of Fengbei City is not Qiao Renzhou, but Qiao Qiliang.

Qiao Renzhou has retired to live in retirement.

Standing in front of Qiao Mansion, Su Chen was in a daze. After hesitating for half a second, he finally walked in.

"Excuse me, please let me know. I am an old friend of Qiao Qiliang's meeting."

The guard was very dissatisfied with Su Chen's title, but seeing Su Chen's fearless look, he finally chose to report it.

After not seeing each other for many years, Qiao Qiliang has grown a beard, has a mature face and a thinner figure.

Seeing Su Chen, he froze on the spot, as if he couldn't believe it.

"Old Qiao!" Su Chen finally called out and woke him up.

"It's really you, Su Chen!" Qiao Qiliang cried with joy when he heard this familiar name.

Su Chen nodded and had mixed feelings when he saw Qiao Qiliang again.

"Welcome back!" Qiao Qiliang opened his arms, hugged Su Chen, and laughed.

Qiao Mansion suddenly became lively.

After hearing the news, Qiao Renzhou, who was holding his grandson, also showed up to meet Su Chen.

Qiao Qiliang called out all twelve of his children and introduced them to Su Chen one by one.

Then he asked everyone to leave, and he took Su Chen back to the courtyard where Su Chen lived to reminisce about the past.

The yard was spotless, with servants cleaning it every day, and the furnishings were as usual, unchanged from before Su Chen left.

The two of them just sat in the yard chatting, from getting to know each other to becoming friends, and then to parting ways.

Memories fill this yard.

They continued chatting until evening. Su Chen asked someone to bring some vegetables, and the two of them continued eating and chatting in the yard.

Qiao Mansion concealed the news of Su Chen's return.

After such a long time, the legend of Su Chen is still circulating in Dafeng City, but few people would have thought that Su Chen would come back.

Moreover, the Qiao Mansion now is no better than before.

In today's Qiao Mansion, even the royal family is quite afraid, let alone all the forces in Dafeng City.

Qiao Qiliang ordered the news to be blocked, but no news came out. Everyone just thought it was a visit from Qiao Qiliang's friends.

For the next time, Su Chen lived in Qiao's mansion.

Qiao Qiliang took Su Chen around for fun, which made Qiao Renzhou miserable. He had to help Qiao Qiliang handle official affairs.

The two went to the black market, Funiu Mountain, gold hiding places... and many other places to find their original footprints.

Have fun doing it.

In the blink of an eye, three months passed and Su Chen said goodbye to Qiao Qiliang.

"I won't say much else, just be careful in everything!" Qiao Qiliang said goodbye to Su Chen.

Su Chen nodded, and under his reluctant gaze, set off towards the next stop, the Imperial City.

A few days later.

Su Chen arrived in the imperial city.

However, he did not enter the imperial city. Hong Ming, Li Mo and others were not in the imperial city.

They had already moved out of the imperial city and lived in the villa where the two countries competed.
