Chapter 1: Released from prison
Qingzhou, Anlin County, Great Zhou Dynasty, prison
There was a rancid smell in the air, which was hard to breathe, and on the damp straw mat lay a handsome scholar, his simple green shirt already covered with blood.
The scholar had a striking whip mark on his face, his eyes were closed, and if it weren't for the faint sound of breathing, he would be no different from a dead man! Even so, his daily life now can be described as worse than death.
Swish!
Suddenly only heard the crisp sound of a leather whip, and the sharp pain surged into his mind like a tide, and the scholar's pupils suddenly dilated, and his eyes stared at the tall figure with murderous intent.
"How? Ye Shu, I'm not going to talk about how you colluded with the demon clan today? The jailer tugged at the leather whip in his hand and said in a flirtatious tone.
Ye Shu glanced at him coldly, the jailer in front of him was named Chen An, he was the son of the county commander of Anlin County, and he was rampant and domineering in this Lin'an County, and there were countless people who were imprisoned for offending Chen An for a trivial matter, and many of those people were played by Chen An in prison to death.
Ye Shu understood that the other party was going to use punishment to make himself bent into a move, because he had never colluded with the demon clan at all! In fact, the current Ye Shu has crossed over, the original owner was an orphan with no father and mother, and was adopted by Wang Mo, the owner of the Hongzhi Martial Arts Pavilion, since he was a child.
Even if Ye Shu was born with a broken pulse and couldn't practice, Wang Mo still regarded it as his own, and paid out of his own pocket to let him go to private school, although studying in the Great Zhou Dynasty was not as good as practicing martial arts, but if he could mix up an official and a half-position in the imperial court, he could also ensure that he would have peace of mind in the second half of his life!
Ye Shu was extremely grateful to Wang Mo, so he studied poetry and books since he was a child, just to repay Wang Mo for his nurturing grace in the future.
The second-rank senior member's surname is Liu, and he is also quite prestigious in the court. The ancestors of the Liu family once followed Emperor Taizu to fight in the south and the north, and made great achievements, opened up the territory in the troubled times of the Spring and Autumn Period, and was able to be crowned a prince when the Great Zhou Dynasty was founded.
Even if the Liu family is weak now, it is also a giant in the entire Great Zhou, and it is not something that Ye Shu can compete with as an ordinary person at all.
With that "death", Ye Shu successfully left the capital, and when he returned to Anlin County, he planned to say goodbye to Wang Mo, but somehow leaked his whereabouts and entered the Anlin County Prison.
The county commander Chen wanted to take his head to ask for credit from the second-grade master, but it happened that the demon clan came to attack a few days ago, and Anlin County was the first place to break out of the beast tide, if he couldn't come up with a suitable explanation, he was afraid that the dog official would throw away the black gauze hat.
Ye Shu has been tortured in the past few days, but there is no danger of his life, maybe the dog official wants him to take the initiative to confess, first, he can tie up with the Liu family, a big family in the capital, and second, he can also give an explanation to the imperial court.
[Host Reading Book 9/10]
[The last volume needs to read any martial arts classic in Anlin County]
The progress bar that appeared in front of him was Ye Shu's biggest support, and this progress bar had been there since he crossed over to the other world, and he needed to read ten volumes of books to untie it.
There are no restrictions on the first nine books, but the requirements of the last book really gave Ye Shu a little headache, originally it was not difficult for him to read a martial art in the Hongzhi Martial Arts Pavilion, but now that he is in prison, how can he open the golden finger and successfully counterattack?
Seeing Ye Shu's eyes foggy, Chen An raised his eyebrows, and his left hand suddenly grabbed the latter's throat like an eagle's falcon, and pressed it against the wall, causing the wall to crack for a while.
Ye Shu only felt five times churning, and a mouthful of blood couldn't help but gush out.
Chen An squinted at him and smiled fiercely: "! Ye Shu, do you really dare not kill you? ”
Ye Shu was extremely weak at this time, but his eyes were still calm and unafraid, although this Chen An had some energy in Lin'an County, he must not act recklessly, not to mention that Ye Shu is a repeat offender now!
Chen An stared at Ye Shu fiercely, and after half a meal, his expression gradually calmed down, and he slowly let go of the hand that was holding Ye Shu's neck.
"Ye Dashao, don't be nervous! I'm actually going to let you out today? ”
"Ahem...... Cough...... You're going to ...... again What the...... Pattern? ”
"My father has never told Liu San Gongzi about your whereabouts, because someone hanged your life with silver!"
Ye Shu let out a "pop" in his heart, and suddenly felt a little sour.
"You can't be the illegitimate son of that Wang Mo, right?! He loves you so much? In order to help you get out, it cost three thousand taels of silver! This amount is not small, it is estimated that the martial arts hall was sold! Chen An glanced at Ye Shu meaningfully, his eyes full of disdain and mockery.
Ye Shu's head was as heavy as lead, and his eye sockets were gradually covered with a layer of mist. He chose to go to see Wang Mo that day because of the original owner's obsession on the one hand, and for the martial arts secrets of the Hongzhi Martial Arts Hall on the other hand, but he didn't expect that the former would treat him consistently, even if he caused a catastrophe, he was still willing to shelter him!
Such kindness is simply beyond repayment!
Chen An threw the shackle key to Ye Shu, and then walked out of the cell door carelessly, his eyelids raised slightly, and a trace of murderous intent swept through it.
In fact, what he just said was the truth, Wang Mo did spend three thousand taels of silver in the hope of saving Ye Shu's life, and the county order also agreed, but also passed the news that Ye Shu was still alive to the Liu family in Kyoto.
Just yesterday, the Liu family came to respond.
Will punish Ye Shu!
In return, they will help Chen An's father and son in the matter of the beast tide.
"Ye Shu, tonight is your death! Before that, let you bounce for a while, which is my last mercy. ”
The long-lost sunshine is warm, and it can soothe a person's body and mind the most, but Ye Shu did not relax in his heart, he understood that things would not end so easily.
Ye Shu dragged his heavy injured body and went to the Hongzhi Martial Arts Hall as soon as possible, but deliberately avoided Wang Mo, but instead found a martial apprentice who was most familiar with him, and borrowed a volume of Qi cultivation methods that were the most basic for cultivation.
The martial disciple's words and deeds were a little strange, and the atmosphere in the Hongzhi Martial Arts Hall was also very depressing, but Ye Shu had no time to pay attention to it and left the martial arts hall directly.
Although Wang Mo treated him very well, his family was quite complaining about Ye Shu, so Ye Shu did not live with Wang Mo's family when he grew up.
After returning to his humble thatched hut, Ye Shu hurriedly opened the volume of Qigong practice and studied it for the first time. He has been gifted and intelligent since he was a child, but he is suffering from a broken pulse by nature, so he can't practice, and he has never read any martial arts.
The twilight was vast and the sky was almost dark, Ye Shu closed the scroll with both hands, and at the same time, a cold mechanical voice sounded in his mind.
【Ding! The host reads ten volumes of books and has activated the scholar system! 】
[Whether to open a big gift for newbies!] 】
Be! Ye Shu responded excitedly in his heart.
In this world, there is no right to speak without strength, and he has suffered too much because he has no strength.
Ying Xue is expected to gain fame for many years, but now she is in a desperate situation!
The person who has been robbed of his fame has nowhere to redress his grievances, but his life is in danger, if there is really justice in the world, why did he end up in such a field?
The future is still in his own hands, Ye Shu would not be naïve to think that Chen Xianling would let himself go so easily!
【Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Condensation Realm Cultivation]
The majestic aura of heaven and earth was poured into Ye Shu's body in an almost arrogant posture, his whole person was bathed in spiritual mist, and the injuries all over his body recovered at a speed that was visible to the naked eye, and after a long time, Ye Shu's originally broken meridians had already been bridged, exuding a white glow.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Ye Shu crossed the Quenching Body Realm and went straight to the Condensation Realm!
