Chapter 3: Break into the Misty Pond

A man in his teenager called a teenager "Big Brother". This scene is actually not surprising.
Being a "big brother" does not have to depend on age, but you must have strength.
If you have the strength, you are the eldest brother. If you don’t have the strength, you are the younger brother. It’s useless to be old. You are just an old brother.
So when Zeng Dabao arrived in front of Sun Yixie, he would naturally become a younger brother.
Now, my elder brother wants your younger brother to give him fifty taels, will you give him? If you don’t give him, the “brother brother” lying on the ground will be severe.
Then Zeng Dabao had no choice, who made me catch up with such a brother...
He has been a captain in Lin'an for so many years and must have saved some savings. This time, he has explained it all.
Of course, Sun Yixie did not take their brother's money in vain: these fifty taels were considered "buying and dealing", just regarded as Captain Zeng, who paid for his brother to buy Xue Tui and his store, and the place would be Zeng Erbao in the future.
Everyone... This is a clever way to deal with it.
Do you think the Zeng brothers have any sins that must be killed? No, there were many people like them back then, and they were just people in a position, so Sun Yixie would not kill them all.
But if it was just to beat Zeng Erbao to a half-dead and force Zeng Dabao to pay a sum of money to Xue, Yuan, and Zhang... that would be not appropriate.
Although this seems to have given up the anger to your friends and punished the evil people, in fact, this has not changed anything, but will intensify the conflict and turn it into hatred.
And now Sun Yixi's method is very good.
First of all, in terms of people, you have not been beaten to death, just slaps a few times. For rascals, this is not a big deal, and even losing face is not counted. Maybe in the future, these gangsters will go out to brag about "I was once slapped by Sun Yixie."
Secondly, in terms of money, this store was given to you Zeng brothers for fifty taels. Even if you lose a little, you won’t lose much, and at least you can get a lot of money.
Third, Sun Yixie told Zeng Dabao that this store was for Zeng Erbao, and that Zeng Dabao could understand the meaning - let your brother do some serious business in the future and stop doing anything wrong, and you have paid so much money, so you will also be struggling to control him without me telling me.
As for Xue Tui, Yuan Fangzhi and Zhang Ergui, Sun Yixie has made other arrangements. He has asked them to pack their luggage tonight and take them back to Hangzhou tomorrow. In the future, these three will eat the Sun family's rice.
To put it short, this is the matter this day, let it go.
Even the Zeng brothers had no complaints afterwards. After all, Zeng Erbao offended Sun Yixie's friend, and they were already very glad that they could end up with such a result.
The next day, Sun Yixie hired two big cars and took Yuan Chuwang, Zhang Erchu, and Xue Tui's family to Hangzhou City.
Sun Yixie didn't keep a single penny for the fifty taels of silver he got yesterday. He gave it to Xue Tui and the others. He said it was a family settlement fee, but in fact... Later, when he entered Hangzhou City, Sun Yixie also arranged the residences of the three of them, so they didn't need to settle down by themselves.
At this time, Brother Sun had already had an idea. He thought to himself: Since he had obtained these three talents this time, he must win over them and use them for me.
He was inspired by the "Buguilou" in Luoyang and planned to set up a unique luxury restaurant in Hangzhou. He had already thought of the name, and it was called "Xihu Yazu". He drove it directly by the West Lake. The more expensive the price, it would be, and he would make money from Kaizi.
However, it takes a long time to handle this matter, so let's talk about it and let's take a look at the situation on Huang Donglai...
Let’s talk about Huang Donglai leaving Wuchang, and then headed all the way to Fushun (now Zigong)’s hometown.
However, Li Taibai said it well - the difficulty of Shu Road is as difficult as climbing to the blue sky.
Originally, the distance from Wuchang to Fushun was farther than that from Hangzhou, and the road to Sichuan was difficult to walk, Huang Donglai had traveled more than Sun Yixie for more than ten days before he got home.
By chance, his father happened to go out to do business the days after he returned home. Since that was the case, Huang Donglai simply stopped staying at home. He wrote a letter from the family, told the housekeeper a few words, and then set off again.
The day when Huang Donglai left home was October 23, the 18th year of Yongtai. The calendar reads: Heavy snow, the year is in danger, and he does not ask about the fortune telling and does not travel far.
And Huang Donglai was the one who left this day.
Of course, because it rarely snows in Shu, although the solar term on this day was "heavy snow", it actually drizzled a little.
In this cold winter rain, Huang Donglai wore a straw hat and a straw raincoat, rode an old horse along the muddy road and embarked on a journey westward.
The winter mood is getting deeper, the day is shorter and the night is longer.
Because the daytime was getting shorter and shorter, it was difficult to travel at night in ancient times, so he delayed the road for more than ten days.
Fortunately, he arrived at the foot of Wawu Mountain three days before the winter solstice.
But when he really got here, he was in trouble.
The tile houses and mountains are intertwined with forests and valleys, the cliffs are flying steep, the smoke and clouds are misty, and the mysterious and deep... The most important thing is that there is no village in front or shop in the back. Where can he find the mountain gate of the "Shushan Xuanqi Sect"?
Not to mention looking for the mountain gate, he couldn't even find a place to stay in this wilderness. The rhythm is to make a wilderness survival.
But Huang Donglai had no choice but to come. He had come, no matter what, he just looked for it.
It is said that God will give a great responsibility to this person. He must first suffer his mind and mind, his muscles and bones, and his body and skin... In the past three days and three nights, Brother Huang walked and stopped in the mountains, looking for a rest. When he was hungry, he would eat some dry food he carried with him, drink a few sips of ice water in the mountain stream, and when he was sleepy, he would find a shelter for the wind to lie down and sleep for a while... In other words, he was young and skilled in martial arts, and most people would probably freeze to death in this mountain.
In this way, it was the morning of the winter solstice.
On this day, the sky was filled with haze, and the wind in the mountains was like a knife, making people unable to reach their heads.
As early as noon yesterday, Huang Donglai had eaten up his dry food. Once this man had no food in his stomach, he had no calories on his body, so he was cold and hungry last night and didn't sleep well.
Some people may ask, why didn’t he slaughter the horse he rode? That’s enough for him to eat for several days, right?
What a pity, because the mountain road is really hard to walk on, he lifted his saddle the day before he got here and let the horse go. Now he just wants to eat and has nowhere to catch it.
Even survival has become a problem, so let’s not talk about anything else. Huang Donglai was not a person with such a firm will. He immediately wanted to give up and thought he should withdraw.
However, when he wanted to go back, he found that it was not that simple - he was lost.
Even though Huang Donglai felt that he had a good sense of direction and had marked marks on the trunks along the way along the way, after walking for three days, marks had long lost their meaning... After he turned back, he could only find the previous mark. He could not remember any direction the previous one was roughly in, let alone look for the road he had walked in the past two or three days.
Seeing this, he could only bite the bullet and "follow the feeling".
In this way, he wandered around in a state of hunger and cold for more than half a day. Seeing that the sun was about to set again, Huang Donglai finally couldn't hold on.
"Mom... I'm so bad now." He looked at the misty forest in front of him, and an ominous premonition arose.
As a martial arts practitioner, Huang Donglai is quite clear about his physical limits. He understands: when he is exhausted, he cannot withstand it with spiritual things.
Just as the feeling of despair in his heart gradually rose, suddenly, he vaguely saw something on a mountain wall ahead.
At that moment, he quickly put on the awning hand and looked at it with his faint eyes, and then he was sure... the wall should have words engraved.
Now he was energetic, because having the word means someone has come. Maybe this is the "mountain gate" he was looking for, and that word is the name of the sect.
Thinking of this, Huang Donglai took a few deep breaths, then took another breath and walked quickly towards the mountain wall.
But when he approached and saw the words on the mountain wall, his heart sank back to the bottom of the valley.
Chapter completed!
