Jiang Ming could not reject Qiu Zeshenâs invitation anymore. He looked at the village chief who was drinking tea and having snacks, and he kept smiling.
It seemed that only he could go.
Jiang Ming followed Qiu Zeshen all the way to the backyard. When they passed by the corridor, he had already vaguely heard some sounds and walked closer to take a look.
The courtyard was very big, and many people were cultivating.
âThese are all my disciples.â
Qiu Zeshen was quite pleased with himself when he introduced Jiang Ming to them.
However, in the next second, he actually stopped those people from practicing and gathered them together.
Jiang Ming felt that something was wrong.
âJiu Zhu is a guest. You must treat him well.â
âHello,â Qiu Zeshen said.â I still want to chat with my old friend. You guys can go ahead.â
After he finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave. When Jiang Ming heard this, he wanted to stop him. Qiu Zeshen turned around again and said to the martial artists, âYou guys can also spar with him.â
Sparring?
Jiang Ming was stunned and confused.
What was he doing? Was he testing him?
Qiu Zeshen sneered.
From the moment Jiang Ming came in, he felt that Jiang Ming was not simple. He did not know what kind of tricks he had up his sleeve to deceive his friend.
Jiang Ming sensed Qiu Zeshenâs intentions and frowned.
At this moment, he was already surrounded by these disciples.
He grinned.
They could not possibly attack together, right? Was this considered a gang fight?
These people knew the rules of the competition and immediately planned to fight one by one.
These people who practiced martial arts looked delicate. They did not look very strong.
Of course, he did not plan to use any real skills. He just wanted to play with these people.
âAh!â
Jiang Ming could not show his true abilities, so he was punched again and again by the disciples who could not see through his abilities.
On the other side, the village chief was chatting with his old friend when he asked, âWhere is Jiu Zhu? Why isnât he back yet?â
Qiu Zeshen had just returned from the backyard. âJiu Zhu is chatting with the youngsters in the backyard. He asked them to give him some pointers.â
When the village chief heard this, he agreed. âJiu Zhu is so smart. He might be able to learn something.â
He did not suspect anything and continued to eat, drink, and chat with his good friends.
However, after chatting for a long time, Jiang Ming still did not come back. The village chief was a little worried.
âWhy isnât he back yet?â
âDonât worry. They are all young people. Itâs easy to get along.â
Qiu Zeshen consoled him. The village chief frowned and nodded.
He trusted his old friend, but he was also worried.
âIâll go take a look,â he said.
He stood up and headed to the backyard. Qiu Zeshen also stood up quickly.
âHey, wait a minuteâ¦â
He stretched out his hand to stop him, but it was too late. His old friend strode toward the backyard.
Here, Jiang Ming was putting on a show. In the end, he did not expect these seemingly refined guys to really dare to kill him.
He continued to frown.
If this continued, he would have to use his true power.
âWhy donât we stop fighting? He seems really weak.â
Someone spoke worriedly, but he was interrupted by the person next to him. âMaster told us to test him properly. Master has never made a mistake!â
Fortunately, the village chief had rushed over.
âJiu Zhu!â
From afar, the village chief saw a group of people surrounding someone and beating them up. He immediately panicked.
The one being surrounded was probably Jiang Ming.
When the village chief shouted, all the young people looked over. When they saw that it was their master and village chief, they immediately stopped and stood to the side.
âJiu Zhu, what happened to you?â
The village chief walked over.
Jiang Ming pretended to stagger as he stood up.
The village chief quickly supported him, his eyes filled with heartache.
âIâm fine. I was sparring with them.â
Jiang Ming smiled.
These words seemed to reassure the village chief, but in fact, they also revealed the evil deeds of these people.
âSparring? This is a gang fight!â
As he spoke, the village chief stared at these young people.
None of them dared to make a sound.
Everyone knew that the old bandit chief was not only an old friend of their master, but he was also a very powerful figure.
âI say, friend.â
Qiu Zeshen walked over and wanted to speak up for his disciples, but he was held back by the village chiefâs gaze.
âYouâre really something! When you teach your disciples, donât you teach them to be friendly to others?â
âNo, listen to meâ¦â
âWhat lies!â
The chief had a hot temper. He helped Jiang Ming to the hall. When he saw a Qiu family servant, he ordered, âHurry up and find a doctor!â
The servant was frightened. He looked at his master, and he waved his hand helplessly. âGo quickly.â
âYes.â
The servant quickly called the doctor over.
When Jiang Ming saw the doctor, he continued to act injured, and he even changed his pulse.
âYoung master, you need to rest more.â
The doctor was also fooled, and this angered the village chief.
âDamned Qiu! Tell me! Are you even a good person?!â
Outside the house, the servants sent the doctor away. The two old men began to quarrel. Of course, the one with the loud voice was the village chief.
âFriend, listen to meâ¦â
Qiu Zeshen was afraid that others would hear him, so he leaned against his old friendâs ear. He was disgusted by his friend. After hearing his old friendâs words, he shouted, âWhat did you say?!â
âKeep your voice down!â
Qiu Zeshen lowered his voice. The village chief could not care so much.
âYouâre being judgmental!â
The entire courtyard was filled with his shouts. Jiang Ming could hear it clearly from the room, and the disciples in the neighboring courtyard could also hear it clearly.
Unlike Jiang Mingâs relaxed manner, they were all trembling and did not even dare to breathe loudly.
âLet me tell you! You have no idea how good Jiang Ming is! He spent so much effort to cure me! Without him, I would have died! Can you still see me?!â
The chief continued to shout. Qiu Zeshen frowned and asked, âIf he wasnât strong enough, how could he have cured you so quickly?â
Jiang Ming was stunned.
Qiu Zeshenâs eyesight was quite sharp.
The village chief was stunned for a moment, then immediately said, âHeâs a doctor. Whatâs the use of him if he doesnât have any skills? Itâs not like he has the ability to fight.â
Qiu Zeshen was rendered speechless by his words. Jiang Ming felt a little upset when he heard it.
The two people outside were quarreling and were about to fight.
âLet me tell you, you never knew how to judge people when you were young!â
âHow dare you question my ability to judge people! Let me tell you, Iâve been in the martial arts world for so many years!â
As the two of them spoke, they really made a move!
âTake this!â
âIâm afraid of you!â
One of them was strong and powerful, while the other was soft and gentle.
Through the crack in the door, Jiang Ming saw everything clearly and sighed in his heart.
The two of them were indeed extraordinary.
After the confrontation, both of them actually stopped!
âHumph!â
âHumph!â
The two of them turned around and left with a flick of their sleeves.
