"Now, this matter is settled!"
The eldest lady was sitting in the high hall, her eyes as cold as a poisonous snake, "Remember this whip, this is a lesson to you for disrespecting your elders!"
"Hahaha! Good! Good!"
Yang Ji laughed angrily and glanced not far away, where a martial arts guard was rolling up a bloody whip in a slow and orderly manner:
"Madam, thank you very much for the gift. Yang Ji will remember this whip!"
Yang Ji didn't even look at the bloody wound on his back, and just let the blood drip down his back.
"One day, I will return it."
Yang Ji said bitterly in his heart, then turned and left without looking back.
…
The eerie silence in the Discipline Hall.
After Yang Ji left, the eldest lady stood up with her hands on her hands.
Her face was like ice that had never melted for thousands of years, with a solemn look on her face.
"I want to take care of all aspects, but also want to eat more. How can there be such a good thing in the world? - Since you don't want to join in, don't take the original 'Yilongshou Pill'!"
The eldest lady coldly dropped these words and turned to leave, leaving only three livid-faced clan elders behind her.
Lifting a rolling curtain and entering the back of the Discipline Hall, the "eldest lady" suddenly stopped as she passed a kneeling girl.
This girl was about sixteen or seventeen years old, and she was pretty and refined. She was half-kneeling on the ground, holding chopsticks in one hand and a large bowl in the other hand, which contained fried pork with spicy peppers that was delicious and delicious.
While crying.
She was already very full and her belly was slightly bulging, but she still kept eating and couldn't stop the tears in her eyes.
"This time I'm just giving you a small lesson. Do your part well. Next time, it won't be as simple as letting you eat the cat you raised since childhood. - I won't always be like this.
Be kind!"
"Madam" said that and walked away.
"Wow!"
After the eldest lady left, the girl finally cried loudly, and kept vomiting while crying.
This animal that had accompanied her since she was a child and regarded her as a family member was now only the remains of that place. Seeing the broken foam spit out from her stomach one by one, the girl was about to collapse.
"Madam, I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore..."
The girl howled loudly, her voice was hoarse.
…………
After coming out of the Discipline Hall, Yang Ji felt confused. Although the sky was not very bright, it felt extremely dazzling at this moment.
"Sixteen years old, sixteen years old... It's not easy to reach the martial arts realm! Even those outstanding disciples in the clan, who have the training resources provided by the clan every day, dare not say that they will definitely be able to break through to the martial arts realm, let alone
Besides, I can only breathe at the sixth level."
Yang Ji's heart was heavy and he felt that his future was gloomy.
"However, no matter what, I will never let you succeed. Maybe one day, I will leave the clan, but it will never be in this way!"
Yang Ji clenched his fists and secretly vowed to break through to the martial arts realm before he turned sixteen no matter what.
More than half a year is so short!
Yang Ji's only advantage now is that the strange "Star Iron" has changed his bones, allowing him to stand on the same starting line as other clan disciples again.
This is his only glimmer of hope.
After leaving the Discipline Hall, Yang Ji saw the old housekeeper in the crowd. As soon as the old man saw the bloody whip marks on Yang Ji's back, he couldn't help crying.
The old housekeeper felt ashamed of the deceased master and his wife, and was so sad that he could not even speak.
"Uncle Liang, it's okay. It's just a small scar. Take this as a lesson. One day, I will pay it back."
Yang Ji comforted the old housekeeper, ignored those sarcastic looks, and returned to his residence.
The whip was specially made and had backlashes on it, so the torn skin would not heal in a short time. Yang Ji simply applied some medicine, but the pain did not decrease at all.
This is how cruel the eldest lady is!
"Blessings never come in pairs, and misfortunes never come singly. I wrote a couplet, but I didn't expect it to come true for me. Time is running out, and I must find a way to raise money for the winter as soon as possible."
Yang Ji smiled to himself, moved his body, and felt that the injury did not have much impact on his actions. He gritted his teeth and left with his luggage on his back.
Although writing couplets is hard work, it is the only thing he can do now. Yang Ji plans to sell a few more couplets like yesterday.
However, when Yang Ji walked into those shops like yesterday, an accident happened.
"Sorry, young man, we have enough goods."
"I'm so sorry, our store doesn't need couplets now."
"...You should go and look elsewhere."
…
The answers were basically the same. After visiting more than ten stores in a row, Yang Ji couldn't sell even one couplet. It seemed that overnight, all the stores began to turn Yang Ji away, and their attitudes were very cold.
Even in some stores, as soon as Yang Jicai showed up at the door, the other party waved his hand and said no.
"Shopkeeper, please tell me directly. What is going on?"
Yang Ji finally couldn't help but said loudly.
"Haha, young man, I won't hide it from you. You are a disciple of the Yang clan. Yesterday, your eldest lady sent someone here. They said that none of us are allowed to buy your couplets, but there is nothing we can do."
The person who finally told the truth was the shopkeeper of a grain and oil store, with a look of helplessness on his face.
"What? Madam!"
Yang Ji suddenly changed color.
Although he had long sensed that someone was targeting him, he only thought it was a competitor, but he didn't expect it to be the eldest lady, with her hand stretched out so long.
He just sold the couplets yesterday, and today this woman ordered all the shops in the market to stop selling his stuff.
"This woman sincerely wants to cut off all my options for survival!"
Yang Ji felt anxious and angry.
"Selling couplets" was a way he came up with to earn enough money in a short period of time. The eldest lady blocked his path, which was equivalent to strangling his lifeline.
If you don't sell couplets, how can you survive this bone-chilling winter?
"There is no way out of heaven. I don't believe that a living person can be killed by a few copper coins!"
Yang Ji felt angry in his heart, but it also inspired the pride in his heart and the uncompromising nature in his heart.
Yang Ji turned around and left. Just as he crossed the threshold, his eyes suddenly glanced at something in front of the grain and oil store. His heart moved and he stopped.
"Shopkeeper, what is that?"
Yang Ji pointed to a piece of snow-white fox skin in front of the grain and oil store.
The grain and oil store rarely sells anything else, except Yang Ji's calligraphy and painting couplets, and this fox fur is the most special.
"Oh, you said this!"
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "This is a fox skin hunted by hunters in the mountains. Winter is coming, and these animals have begun to change their fur. Whether fox or rabbit, they are both snow-white, and the young ladies and gentlemen in the city like them very much. They sell them
It's quite good. If you can also get it, I will still accept it... Of course, you can't let your eldest lady know."
The shopkeeper talked mostly in jokes. Yang Ji, who was polite and wrote couplets with a pen, could not get along with those hunters in the mountains.
However, Yang Ji didn't think so. When he heard the shopkeeper's words, his heart suddenly became lively.
"hunt……"
Many thoughts went through Yang Ji's mind instantly. His eyes were bright, and he vaguely thought of something.
Hunting requires a lot of strength, whether it is shooting a bow or releasing an arrow. For ordinary people, after shooting a few arrows, the muscles in their arms will become numb, the whole body will be weak, and they will have to rest for a long time before shooting again.
But Yang Ji is different. After reaching the sixth stage of breathing, his strength and physical strength increase greatly, far beyond ordinary people. Others may not be able to draw the bow, but Yang Ji can definitely do it.
"Grain and oil stores usually don't sell other things unless there is huge profit. I only earn one copper plate from selling a pair of couplets, and a fox skin is probably seven to eight times, or even ten times more than mine. Moreover, although I have achieved breathing
