Chapter 92 Nothing Could Be More Just
Chapter 92 Nothing Could Be More Just
Three months later.
late at night.
Ye Zhanqing leaned against the windowsill, gazing at the starry sky outside, and muttered to herself:
"Willow-green robes adorned with golden phoenixes, delicate hands lightly pluck red beans, brows furrowed in tender affection. Peach Blossom Cave, Jade Terrace Dream... A heart full of spring sorrow, with whom can I share it?"
Qi Ming, standing behind her, commented sharply:
"I've been ripped off! You can't even sing properly, what kind of famous courtesan are you? My ten thousand taels! Ten thousand taels! Ten thousand taels!"
This is not just idle talk.
Ye Zhanqing doesn't possess any of the skills a courtesan should have... Even disregarding that, she hasn't mastered the Water-Splitting Sword Technique she learned!
But she also has advantages.
Ye Zhanqing retorted, "Father, I was just a commoner before... what's so strange about not knowing these things? You should love me more, not those prostitutes!"
"That makes sense!"
Qi Ming snapped his fingers and agreed:
"What you say makes a lot of sense, but that doesn't change the fact that I was a sucker, fooled by that madam!"
"So what do you want to do?"
"No way. In business, there are always losses and gains. I've always been willing to accept defeat and rarely regret it afterward. Besides, I don't have the ability or the means to retaliate!"
"Father, what kind of business did you do before? How did you have so much money?"
"I'm even better than Hua Tuo (a legendary Chinese physician), I'm the best at reattachment. That 200,000 taels was earned through my skills!"
"Continue...?"
"Zhang Dajing, the richest man in Nanjing and owner of Tongbao Money Shop, is offering 100,000 taels of gold and a million taels of silver to find someone who can cure his leg! Whoever can make him stand up will receive all of this. Have you heard of that?"
"Could it be that you can...?"
"easy!"
"Father, you're amazing! Qing'er admires you so much..."
Just as Ye Zhanqing was speaking in a coquettish tone, she suddenly saw a streak of light flash across the sky. She trembled instantly, cried out "Oops!" and changed her words:
"Father, I want to..."
Qi Ming interrupted with a laugh, "I'm going on a long trip tomorrow to collect some bad debts. It'll probably take two months. You little slut, stay home obediently and don't you dare cheat on me!"
Ye Zhanqing breathed a sigh of relief: "My husband is so annoying, I would never cheat on him!"
That streak of light was a signal flare, a notification from Blackrock about their mission.
She's going on a mission.
But they don't want to kill Qi Ming yet, so they need to find an excuse, which is a real headache...
She must have been on more than one mission.
After working for so many years, Xi Yu only received 800,000 taels of silver.
Why did she get a million later?
It wasn't shown in the movie.
Qi Ming was very curious, so he went along to take a look.
The potential of this world is not low.
More than 800 years ago, the Indian monk Rama voluntarily purified himself and entered the palace to preach to Emperor Wu of Liang, Xiao Yan.
After he died, that thing actually grew back...
According to the setting, this is the effect produced by the combination of "Rama's Inner Power" and Buddhism.
Based on this alone, it can't be low-class.
Therefore, Qi Ming's martial arts skills were not significantly diminished after arriving in this world.
Even if it loses nine-tenths of its strength, it would still be considered a devastating blow to other experts in this world.
If we only consider performance, the strongest person in this world is probably Zhang Renfeng, the husband of the female protagonist Xiyu and the son of the former Chief Minister Zhang.
He was assassinated by the "Black Stone Organization" years ago. He was no match for the crowd and was stabbed in the left chest by Xi Yu's sword.
Because his heart was on the right side, he did not die.
He went to the legendary doctor Li Guishou for a disguise surgery, changed his name to "Jiang Asheng", and worked as a errand boy in Jinling City, which is the capital.
Later, Xi Yu, who also went to Li Guishou for a disguise surgery, fell in love with him and even got married.
The drizzle was the enemy who killed her husband.
It has to be said, this is truly a tragic fate.
His martial arts skills include the ability to unleash sword energy!
They can take on multiple members of the "Blackstone" organization at once.
But in the final battle, he was unable to participate because his wife, Xiyu, used acupressure on him…
That doesn't really matter.
Qi Ming didn't care how they fought; he was only interested in the miraculous disguise skills of the divine doctor Li Guishou, and the effects of combining the "Rama Internal Power" with Buddhism.
Just these two things.
You don't need to do anything else.
Blood Orchids cannot be planted either, because his time in this world is very short, only two years.
***
The residence of the Prefect of Chuzhou.
The rain poured down, but the lanterns under the eaves remained lit.
The red light, in the dead of night, created an eerie and chilling atmosphere.
Lei Bin, a member of "Black Stone," chuckled to Ye Zhanqing, who was wearing a black straw hat, from the shadows:
"Why did you change careers? What man is so capable that he could tame someone like you?"
He was skilled with flying needles and was a trusted subordinate of King Chakravartin...
But in recent years, he had a child with a woman named Tian Qingtong and wanted to retire from the entertainment industry.
Tian Qingtong was the daughter of the former governor of Jinling.
Her entire family was killed by Xi Yu, but she was the only one spared...
She tried to take revenge many times, but failed each time and never died.
Xi Yu couldn't bear to kill her.
Lei Bin also defended her.
So, after a while, she and Lei Bin got together...
That makes it difficult to evaluate.
Ye Zhanqing spat, "The man who can subdue me hasn't been born yet! I'll kill that guy after I'm done playing with him!"
She knew very well that Lei Bin looked down on her.
And of course, she looked down on Lei Bin!
Why not be a proper assassin and instead become a good man, bowing and scraping to women? What a piece of trash!
She's not even worth a hair on her husband's head.
Lei Bin was speechless.
He really couldn't get along with someone like Ye Zhanqing.
Although he still gets blood on his hands, he is more innocent when it comes to romantic relationships.
You only lost a life, but he lost his wife...
It was necessary to lose it.
Qi Ming, observing from above, thought to himself.
I have no psychological burden at all.
You can't just kill someone and then expect them to retaliate, can you?
Qi Ming is a distant nephew whom the Prefect of Chuzhou has never met! Seeking revenge for his uncle is the most righteous thing to do!
The rain subsided.
Lei Bin and Ye Zhanqing split up and acted separately...
In another direction, there is Lian Sheng, a master of the Black Stone organization known as the "Colorful Play Master".
Skilled in the "Immortal Rope," they climb into the air using a rope and then disappear.
Later, he also wanted Rama's remains, betrayed King Chakravartin, and was killed...
And his martial arts skills, in the words of King Yama, are:
If you want to act, then act; if you want to practice martial arts, then practice martial arts. It's a miracle that you've survived this long by mixing the two together!
But this applies to the Wheel King.
To the servants in the Chuzhou Prefectural Governor's mansion, he was a true master, killing people as easily as mowing grass.
Lei Bin's flying needles were almost as good as bullets.
Ye Zhanqing's swordsmanship was not yet fully refined, but his swordsmanship was superb. Moreover, he had been on missions before going to the brothel and was ruthless, so he also unleashed his full power.
Qi Ming, the "good nephew," remained unmoved by the killing and watched coldly from the sidelines.
After they finished, and took advantage of the rain stopping to set off a fire, they left!
Qi Ming entered the prefect's mansion, casually picked up a folding fan that the prefect had used and that was signed with his name, and then quietly left, following Lei Bin.
A month and a half later.
Lei Bin is on another mission.
Tian Qingtong was home alone, taking care of his daughter.
That night.
Qi Ming, wearing a straw hat and carrying a long sword, walked into the Lei family's house.
Tian Qingtong was still awake.
Upon seeing him, without saying a word, she immediately drew the sword hanging on the wall and leaped to stab him.
Qi Ming chuckled and flicked his finger in the air!
Tian Qingtong's longsword shattered into pieces, scattering in all directions.
