Chapter 80 Trouble
After reporting the family and understanding, Chen An realized that the three brothers were actually sworn brothers rather than real brothers.
The eldest man with a square face is called Hou Shu, the second woman is called Hou Bin, and the third woman with a beard is called Hou Yong. The three of them all came from a village in a remote valley in Lingzhou.
The three of them are similar in age and have grown up with urination and playing together. If nothing unexpected happens, they will become farmers and hunters in the village like their parents in the future. Who would have thought that when the three of them were seven or eight years old, Hou Shu's father saved a middle-aged man covered in blood while hunting in the mountains.
After treatment, the middle-aged man finally woke up. The hospitality Houjia Village did not ask about his past, and the middle-aged man also kept silent about it. In order to repay Hou Shu's father for saving his life, the middle-aged man, who was knowledgeable and skilled in martial arts, tried to teach the children in the village to study and practice martial arts.
And the fate of the three brothers has completely changed.
The three brothers had outstanding martial arts talent and soon stood out from a group of children. The middle-aged man did not cherish it. Not only did he teach the three brothers all the martial arts characteristics, he even took a trip to the world when the three men were young. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Not long after returning to the village after this trip, the middle-aged man bid farewell to Houjia Village and never came back.
From then on, the three brothers studied hard and practiced martial arts. They planned to leave Houjia Village together when they grew up to find their mentor's whereabouts. Unfortunately, the searches failed several times, and the three of them gradually became discouraged.
For a long time, the three adult brothers lived in the mountain village to farm and hunt and support their families. Because they had seen the wonderful world outside, how could the three of them stay in the village for the rest of their lives? Not long ago, the three brothers discussed with their families and then came out to explore the world again.
When they were passing Fanzhou, they heard about the martial arts conference from a certain martial arts person in the restaurant, and they immediately had the idea of going to see the fun in their hearts like Chen An. At the same time, they also wanted to use the martial arts conference to make the reputation of the three brothers. In this way, their mentor might hear the news and come to meet them after hearing the reputation of the three.
Although Hou Shu and Hou Bin would deliberately hide it in their daily conversations, Hou Yong's big mouth would occasionally reveal some of their secrets.
For example, if three people ride horses, the money they have come from robbing the house.
After realizing that something was wrong, Hou Shu quickly explained to Chen An that although these external things were ill-gotten, they were all plundered from local tyrants and bullies, and the extra money would be scattered to the poor people who were oppressed by them, which was also a just act of robbing the rich and helping the poor.
Chen An refused to argue about this, after all, any act of doing bad things under the banner of justice needs to be worthy of examination.
Moreover, he, a modern man, had huge differences in values between ancient people in feudal society.
On the way to the Wulin Conference, Chen An found out that the Wulin Conference was held in a villa in Cuishan Lake outside Chailing County, Chuzhou. Chailing only takes half a day to ride a horse from Taikang City, the capital of Chuzhou. If you want to have fun on the Mudan River in Taikang City, it is very convenient.
The specific time for the martial arts conference was eight days later. The three brothers originally planned to go to the famous Mudan River to see what the fireworks land praised by countless literati and talents was so wonderful. Who would have thought of hitting Chen An's iron plate? The three brothers' desire to play was extinguished.
After all, judging from Chen An's style of conduct, he doesn't look like the kind of person who likes to linger in fireworks and willows. The problem is that he doesn't have that desire at a young age. It's really strange that he still adheres to the rules and regulations after returning to secular life?
The three brothers couldn't help but secretly guess.
Chen An is a normal man. He also has physiological needs, but his self-control ability is good. In addition, he is not interested in the so-called famous actors, so he naturally has no interest.
The most important thing is that he is a modern man who carries countless germs. Who knows whether he and a woman will get unsuccessful modern germs after a night of spring, and even spread to a plague? Think about how the Inca Empire conquered by Spain during the Great Distance period died? It’s not that the native Americans were infected with various viruses brought by Europeans and died on a large scale.
To be honest, when he recalled that he had been with the little girl Yaoyao for a long time, he was very afraid that the other party would accidentally get the modern bacteria he carried. Fortunately, this kind of thing did not happen.
Therefore, he would not cause the innocent death of countless people due to the impulse of his lower body.
About three days later, the four of them arrived at Chailing County.
Shortly after entering the city, they could see people from all over the world wearing various swords and weapons everywhere. I think everyone came for the name of the martial arts conference. After a large number of foreign populations poured in, the inns in Chailing County were suddenly filled with all their inns, and the public security quickly became corrupt.
Who told the people in the world to pay attention to the fact that one is incompatible with each other? Or if the enemy who usually has grudges will inevitably break out in bloody conflicts when they meet? The local government is powerless to manage it, unless the army is transferred to the whole city to martial law. But the problem is that the army is not so easy to dispatch.
After searching for many inns, the four of them found a place to stay. Hou Shu took the opportunity to explain to Chen An politely that the three brothers planned to go to Taikang City tomorrow and return to Chailing before the martial arts conference was held. Regardless of whether it was an excuse or not, he decided to completely part ways with Chen An, a dangerous person.
Chen An did not continue to force and nodded directly to agree to the other party's departure.
The next morning, he heard from his friend that the three brothers left the inn before dawn. It was hard to imagine how afraid of them were. He treated them with a kind look along the way.
It is boring to stay in Chailing for several days alone. Chen An would slowly wander around Chailing during his spare time and carefully experience the local customs and customs. Generally, he rarely goes to the restaurant where people from the martial arts world gather. After all, these people are too noisy and sometimes even perform a full martial arts scene.
Chen An always thought that he was an outsider in this world of martial arts, but when the martial arts conference was held only one day, trouble suddenly came to him.
He was listening to books leisurely in the teahouse that day, but not long after, a group of people from the martial arts world rushed in with knives.
The person in the leader lit up when he saw Chen An and then shouted.
"Xuanzhou Salt Gang seeks revenge, no one will be involved, and then retreat for the time being!"
Before he finished speaking, the man pointed the long sword in his hand at Chen An.
"Brothers, come on! Kill him and avenge Gang Master Chen!"
Chen An was stunned and then reacted.
Before the Salt Gang members rushed to the front of him, he instantly pulled out the long sword at his waist, and suddenly appeared in front of the person who was talking like a flash of light.
"Are you still planning to seek revenge?"
Chen An put the long knife on the other party's neck with a calm expression.
Behind him, the seven or eight salt gang members who rushed up just now all screamed and fell to the ground.
