I just want to torture you to death, don't force me to beat you to death

In the yard, the snake catchers talked a lot, but in the end they all shook their heads.

There was obvious disappointment on the old man's face, and he asked unwillingly: "No one knows what this snake is called?"

No one answered, and Chu Ning also pretended to shake his head.

To be precise, it wasn't pretentious. He really didn't know which category of snake the beast belonged to.

"Sir, do you... do you want to catch such a snake? If we encounter it in the future, we can send it to you, sir."

A snake catcher had the courage to speak. The old man sneered and was about to speak, but then he seemed to think of something and said: "Okay, if you encounter this snake, take it to the patrol room and go directly to Chief Wang. I will reward you." A thousand taels of silver."

Wow!

The snake catchers in the entire yard were excited, and their breathing became rapid.

Thousand taels of silver.

Not only would you not have to catch snakes in the future, but you would also be able to buy a house in the city, move your family to the city, and become city dwellers from now on.

Many snake catchers could no longer hold themselves back and immediately went to the mountains to look for snakes as soon as they left the patrol room.

Chu Ning limped out of the patrol room, but he did not leave. Instead, he walked towards the back of the patrol room. Finally, he limped a little, climbed over the courtyard wall, and quietly approached the small courtyard at the end of the patrol room.

Before choosing to settle in Chilian County, Chu Ning had already visited the county government office and patrol room, and confirmed that the chief of the patrol room and the county magistrate were only seventh-level martial arts masters who finally settled here.

Now his ape-length step has been perfected.

After three months of escaping, Yuan Zongbu's training points were full. He shuttled through the woods full of dead leaves, and there was only the slightest sound.

There was a sound coming from inside the courtyard.

"Master, what is the origin of this snake that makes you care so much?" Zhang Qing, the chief of the patrol room in the yard, asked curiously.

"It's not that I care, but Jiuxuan Pavilion cares. This portrait flowed from Jiuxuan Pavilion."

The old man's words made Zhang Qing look serious. His teacher was very talented in martial arts and was valued by Jiuxuan Pavilion as a disciple. However, something happened later and his secret strength was abolished, so he returned to Chilian County.

"Although the teacher has left Jiuxuan Pavilion, he has kept in touch with a senior brother for many years. This portrait was written by the senior brother to the teacher. If the snake in the painting can be found, the sect will give a heavy reward. Specifically, this snake My senior brother didn’t disclose the origin.”

"So that's the case, then the disciple will mobilize all the arresters to look for him together."

"No!"

The old man stopped Zhang Qing, "Jiuxuan Pavilion is keeping this matter secret. They are searching for it in secret. If it is done in a big way, it will attract the attention of the Gu family, so let these snake catchers look for it and tell the public that the teacher has it." A kind of elixir requires this snake as the main medicine to cure hidden diseases."

"Teacher, I don't have high hopes for this matter. I'm just doing my best to obey fate." The old man laughed at himself: "My senior brother will inform you of this news. It is probably because there are many snakes in Chilian County, but there are so many snake catchers. I’ve never seen it before, I’m afraid this snake is not in Chilian County.”

After hearing this, Chu Ning knew that it was time to withdraw. There would be no useful information to listen to anymore.

Just when Chu Ning turned around and was about to leave, the voice of the old man in the yard came out again: "Is there any news about Chu Ning?"

"Teacher, why are you asking this? The Wushuang Sect has been wanted for half a year and has not found him. I guess this person is hiding somewhere." Zhang Qing said with a smile: "Although the Wushuang Sect has not announced Chu Ning's strength, the disciples estimate that this person is hiding somewhere." At the very least, he is a military commander, and this bounty is not easy to get."

"Your idea is right. If there is any trace of Chu Ning, don't do anything. Just send a letter to notify the people at Wushuang Sect."

"Teacher, if this Chu Ning really has the strength of a military commander, he can be regarded as a martial arts genius. If he hides somewhere and trains hard to reach the master level, Wushuang Sect may be in trouble in the future."

There was some gloating in Zhang Qing's words. The teacher was once a disciple of Jiuxuan Pavilion, so he was naturally closer to Jiuxuan Pavilion.

There is also a strong master, the Wushuang Sect, but if a grandmaster specially guards the disciples of the Wushuang Sect and goes out to attack them, it will be a tricky thing.

"If you don't have advanced martial arts skills, don't have enough resources, and hide in one place to practice hard, how can you break through to the Grandmaster? Moreover, the Wushuang Sect will not give Chu Ning a chance to grow. If he really can't find it, he will use Chu Ning's Those close to him forced him out."

…

Chu Ning's heart sank and he didn't listen any more, because he knew what the old man said was right. The more powerful a sect is, the less likely they would allow a talented enemy to grow up.

Wushuangmen is now focusing all its energy on catching himself, but if he can't find any trace of himself, he may dig up the ground in Daning County to find someone close to him.

Of course, this is the worst guess. If it really comes to that point, it won't be the will of a third elder like Ji Bo's father, but the will of the Wushuang Sect as a whole.

Break through to the Grandmaster as soon as possible!

This is the goal Chu Ning has set for himself, and it is also the reason why he came to Yanzhou.

Yanzhou has a way for him to quickly improve his strength.

After leaving the patrol room, Chu Ning limped back to the village.

But what Chu Ning didn't expect was that trouble would soon come to his door.

"From today on, you are no longer allowed to go up the mountain to catch snakes. If you dare to go up the mountain to catch snakes, I will also cripple your other leg."

"I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore."

Chu Ning looked scared and pulled Liu Yun, who looked angry, at the same time.

"Ji Yang, what are you afraid of? In the village, they can't do anything to you. I'll tell the village chief right away."

Liu Yun was very angry and was about to leave when Chu Ning grabbed him.

"Brother Liu, forget it. If you don't catch snakes, you won't catch snakes. Didn't the village chief give me the land? I can just concentrate on farming."

"This is different. Farming is not done all year round. What's wrong with occasionally going up the mountain to catch snakes? There has never been any reason not to catch snakes."

Chu Ning knew in her heart that the people from these two gangs came to threaten her and prevented her from going up the mountain to catch snakes. It was obviously related to the portrait of the snake that the old man showed them yesterday.

A snake catcher who was familiar with the gangs revealed the news and offered a thousand taels of silver for catching a snake. The gangs were tempted and thought they wanted to catch it themselves.

"This way... I'll take a look at the limelight first. These legs are under my feet, and our village is so remote. These people can't guard the village every day. I can just catch the snake secretly."

After Chu Ning's repeated comfort, Liu Yun's anger subsided a little, but Liu Yun also said that he would tell the village chief about this and he could not let these people do whatever they wanted.

Watching Liu Yun leave, Chu Ning was a little moved. Brother Liu is a good person, but the village chief won't care about this.

Although he has settled in the village, he has only stayed for a few months. In the hearts of most villagers, he is only half a villager. It is obviously impossible for the village chief to lead the villagers and gangs to fight for him.

Forbearance a moment, calm, take a step back, a brighter future.

Brother Liu still has never suffered the consequences of life, he is too young.

…

…

Two hours later.

It's getting dark.

Masan and Liao Si each carried a sack, which contained snakes they had snatched from the snake catcher's house.

The deputy gang leader asked them to warn the snake catchers in various towns and villages. It was a tiring day, so naturally they had to reward themselves.

Isn't it a coincidence that a snake catcher happened to catch eight snakes?

These snakes are taken to the county town, find a restaurant and have the chef stew snake soup, and the rest are sold directly to the restaurant.

"How dare that guy not give it to me? If you hadn't stopped me this time, brother, I would have completely destroyed him. I only broke one of his ribs. I really gave him an advantage."

"Forget it, that guy dared to resist because he has a brother-in-law of his third aunt's sister who is a police officer. With such a distant relative, I really thought that they would protect him. If he didn't get disabled, it would already be a show of respect."

The two of them were laughing and walking. When they saw the limping figure walking towards them, Liao Si couldn't help but said, "Isn't this the lame snake catcher from some village?"

In the past two days, the two of them visited three towns and more than thirty villages. On average, there were three to five snake catchers in each village. They had frightened so many snake catchers that they were already somewhat blind.

If it weren't for the fact that this man was lame and the impression was more profound, he might not have remembered it.

"Cripple, it's almost dark today, why are you out here?"

"As soon as I'm a snake catcher, I naturally come out to catch snakes."

"You still dare to catch a snake?"

Masan and Liao Si were furious after hearing this. After being warned by them, the lame man dared to catch snakes.

The key is to dare to say it in front of them.

"Well, I can smell the smell of snakes from a long distance. I just said it would happen tonight. The smell of snakes is so strong. It means a group of snakes are fighting."

Chu Ning's eyes fell on the sack in Liao Si's hand with a smile.

"Cripple, you are seeking death!"

Masan punched Chu Ning, and Chu Ning refused to dodge. Masan had a cruel smile on his face. After a while, the lame man was lying on the ground and wailing.

However, this punch hit the opponent's chest, and Ma San was stunned, as if he had been hit on an iron plate.

Bang, bang!

The next moment, Masan and Liao Si fell to the ground.

The old rule was to touch the corpse first, find out about ten taels of silver and put it into his arms. However, this time Chu Ning did not burn the bones and ashes of the two people, but threw them into the nearby grass and buried them hastily.

Then he took the sack and hurriedly walked towards the village, but he didn't notice that on the ridge road, several villagers were carrying hoes home and happened to see a limping figure.

…

…

Yuan Bin, the first leader of the Blood Wolf Gang, looked at the two corpses on the ground with a gloomy expression.

Ma San and Liao Si were his subordinates. They were not very strong, but they were a slap in the face if they were killed, especially if they were killed by a cripple.

Ji Yang, a lame man from Liujiacun.

Yesterday, some people found the bodies of Masan and Liao Si in the grass, and immediately notified the patrol room. When the police saw that they were members of the Blood Wolf Gang, they sent someone to notify them and stopped caring about them.

The rules of the rivers and lakes, gang disciples live and die, the patrol room does not interfere.

Yuan Bin immediately arranged for his men to investigate, and they found some clues.

Some nearby villagers saw a lame man appearing there that day, carrying a sack in his hand.

After further investigation, the murderer was identified. The cripple was from Liujia Village and his name was Ji Yang.

It is said that Ji Yang was bitten by a poisonous snake two months ago, and then people from Liujia Village rescued him. When he woke up, he could not remember anything except his name.

Ji Yang has been living in Liujia Village for the past two months, working as a snake catcher.

"A lame man can still go up the mountain to catch snakes. It seems that he has practiced. He probably can't stand this tone and seeks revenge on Masan and the others."

Combining these clues, Yuan Bin immediately determined what happened.

"Hall Master, is this person pretending to be lame?"

"If you killed someone and fled in a hurry, would you still pretend to be lame?"

Yuan Bin glared at his subordinate, how could he have such a brainless subordinate.

"The hall master is wise, his subordinates did not expect this."

"Ma San and Liao Si only have about 400 kilograms of strength. I estimate that this lame man should have six or seven hundred kilograms of strength. You can take a few brothers to catch the lame man. If he really resists, he will be killed. .”

…

…

night.

The dogs in Liujia Village barked wildly.

A group of people entered the village.

When the people in Liujiacun came to their senses and walked out, they heard loud curses.

"Damn it, don't let that cripple get away."

"Chase him, I'll beat him if I catch him."

With angry voices and fierce faces holding long knives, the people of Liujia Village did not dare to approach, but they also knew from the phrase "lame" that these people were here to find Ji Yang.

Liu Yun was also among the crowd of people watching, with a worried look on his face. How could this person from the Blood Wolf Gang find Brother Ji?

Last time, people from the Blood Wolf Gang came over to warn Brother Ji, and Brother Ji even advised him to hold back. Logically speaking, Brother Ji shouldn't provoke people from the Blood Wolf Gang.

Could it be that Brother Ji secretly went to catch snakes and was discovered by the Blood Wolf Gang?

The members of the Blood Wolf Gang stayed in Liujia Village all night and climbed almost all the hills around Liujia Village. They did not leave until dawn.

The name Ji Yang, the cripple, also began to spread among the gangs in Chilian County.

After all, he killed two members of the Blood Wolf Gang and injured a small leader of the Blood Wolf Gang, so his strength was already very good.

According to gang analysis, the lame Ji Yang should be close to the strength of a martial artist.

These gangs also began to inquire about Ji Yang's origins, which instantly made Ji Yang famous among the martial arts circles in Chilian County.

The matter naturally reached Zhang Qing's ears. Zhang Qing listened to the reports from his subordinates and smiled and said: "A lame man who is not a martial artist dares to kill people from the Blood Wolf Gang. He has some courage, but it is a pity that he is foolhardy. The ending is also doomed.”

Zhang Qing didn't take this matter to heart, let alone Chu Ning.

The reason is that if he were Chu Ning, he would definitely not cause trouble by hiding in the face of the wanted Wushuang Sect.

If you really can't help it, you'll kill someone and leave quickly.

He was addicted to the cripple business and was limping. If Chu Ning had only this little brain, he would have been caught by the Wushuangmen.

Three days later, night fell.

There was a knock on Liu Yun's door.

"Ji Yang!"

Liu Yun opened the door and saw Ji Yang standing at the door. He was very excited and quickly pulled Ji Yang closer to the house.

"Brother Liu, no one from the Blood Wolf Gang is here. I want to see the village chief."

Chu Ning did not enter the house. Liu Yun was stunned: "Meet the village chief? That's fine. Let's see if the village chief can do anything."

In the courtyard of the village chief of Liujia Village, Liu Quan lowered his head and remained silent. Liu Yun on the side saw this and persuaded: "Village chief, please help Ji Yang. If Ji Yang cannot leave Chilian County, he will definitely be killed by the blood wolf." Someone who helped found it."

Liu Quan raised his head and glanced at Chu Ning, then at the money bag Chu Ning placed on the table.

"Tonight you go to the east of the city to find Captain Zhao Yang and tell him that I caught a fish recently and ask him to come and eat fish when he is free. He will arrange for you to leave Chilian County."

"Thank you village chief. Ji Yang will remember this kindness. If Ji Yang can survive, he will be grateful in the future."

Chu Ning expressed her gratitude, followed Liu Yun out of the village chief's yard, and said to Liu Yun: "Brother Liu, I'm going to the city now, and I have to ask you to help me clean my wooden house every few days."

"Why, you want to come back?" Liu Yun was a little surprised.

"I'm not sure, just ask Brother Liu to sweep away the cobwebs or something for me."

In his house, Chu Ning left three banknotes, one fifty and two hundred, placed on top of the spider web on the eaves. Liu Yun would see it if he cleaned the spider web.

It's not that he didn't want to give more. There was only one small-denomination note left. His current status made it inconvenient for him to go to a bank to exchange for large-denomination banknotes. He might need it someday if he kept it.

As for giving the large denomination to Liu Yun, it is not to thank Liu Yun but to harm him.

Liu Yun is a warm-hearted and good man, but his true identity cannot be told to him.

It's not that he doesn't trust Liu Yun, but out of consideration for Liu Yun, the safer he is if he doesn't know his identity.

This is the only way to repay this kindness.

"Brother Liu, remember, you must clean it up in a few days."

"Okay, I'll remember it, take care along the way."

After leaving Liujia Village, Chu Ning was still limping. Now his escape plan has reached the most critical step. At this time, he must be more cautious and not make any mistakes.

I chose to settle in Liujia Village not only because of its remoteness, but also because of the village chief.

PS: It’s a big chapter, and I finally ordered 3200 for the first time. I’m satisfied. After all, it was only recommended in two rounds. Now let’s talk about the principles for listing and updating: one chapter in the morning and one in the afternoon as before.

Three hundred monthly tickets will add one chapter, the average subscription will increase to three hundred and one chapter will be added, the leader will get one extra chapter, and the alliance leader will get two chapters. Brothers, if you can, please don’t jump in and subscribe. The second chapter is only two thousand and eighty...

There are still two rounds of recommendations to come in the future, so even if you order it, you will be able to double it, and you will not miss more if you add more.
