Sui and Tang Dynasties: Awakening the Supreme Skills at the Beginning

In front of the door of Cui Hu, the chief secretary of Yongzhou, a large group of beggars, scoundrels, refugees, and low-class people blocked the door. They were very excited and shouted at the Cui family to return the money. Some demanded a hundred taels, some demanded fifty taels, some demanded twenty taels, but most of them demanded ten taels.

Vegetable leaves, rotten stones, and rotten eggs rained down on the gate of Cui's house.

The area in front of Cui's house was like a garbage dump, and the stench was overwhelming.

Inside the mansion, the Cui family discussed for half a day, and finally, Cui Wanli, the eldest son of the Cui family, gritted his teeth and spoke in a stern voice.

"Draw your sword to clear the way, injure but don't kill! I wonder if those peasants are afraid of death?"

Rub rub rub...

A group of guards drew their swords, and the gleaming steel knives dazzled the eyes.

They ran straight out the door with steel knives in hand.

"Look! Someone came out from Cui Mansion!"

Outside the door, someone with sharp eyes shouted loudly.

When everyone heard this, they shouted even louder.

The gate of Cui's mansion was wide open, and the steel knives in the hands of the guards were dazzling.

"What are they going to do?"

Everyone was puzzled and stared at the guards in shock.

But the leader of the guards whistled, and the guards shouted, raised their swords and slashed at the people outside the door.

"Ah! The Cui family killed someone!"

"Run!"

"The Cui family is crazy. They kill people without paying!"

Someone was stabbed and fell to the ground holding the wound and screaming loudly.

The people in front of the door immediately scattered and fled like rabbits whose nest had been blown up.

Most of them are refugees, beggars, and people from poor families, and most of them are as timid as mice.

As soon as he saw that his life was in danger, the courage he had gathered immediately disappeared!

Soon, most of the hundreds of people gathered in front of Cui's mansion fled, leaving only a few scholars and wealthy people and their followers.

Unlike those refugees and beggars, these scholars are not afraid of Cui Mansion's steel knives at all.

"The Cui family has brought disaster to the country and the people. They have taken advantage of the national crisis to make a fortune and bully the people. Such behavior is more hateful than that of foreign invaders. We are not those cowardly people. Let's join hands and see if the lackeys of the Cui family dare to touch us!"

With a shout.

In an instant, the gaps left by the fleeing refugees and beggars were filled by scholars.

The guards of Cui Mansion were stunned. Is there really someone who is not afraid of death?

Just as the guard was stunned, the scholars formed a human wall and approached the gate of Cui's mansion.

What should I do? Should I really hurt these people?

The guard hesitated, not daring to move forward, and retreated step by step.

The human wall formed by the scholars gradually occupied the territory of the guards.

In less than an incense stick of time, the human wall had entered the gate of Cui Mansion.

"My Lord, those fearless ones are coming in!"

The head of the security guards shouted loudly, with a tremor in his voice, as if he was extremely frightened.

Cui Wanli came to the front yard and saw the scene. His eyes were bloodshot and he let out a loud roar.

"You dogs, what are you holding in your hands? Can't you just follow me? Cut it down!"

The head of the security guards gritted his teeth and thought, since the master ordered us to chop people down, the consequences will naturally be the responsibility of the master, so what should we be afraid of?

Thinking of this, he roared, "Hold on, anyone who comes forward without permission will be killed without mercy!"

As he spoke, he swung the steel knife in his hand, creating a flash of light and moved straight towards the crowd.

The guards behind him followed suit, forming a forest of swords, blocking the human wall.

"Ah! It looks like they will really kill someone!"

Some timid scholars turned pale, broke out in cold sweat, and had trembling legs, and they almost ran away.

"mob!"

Yang Wanli sneered, looking down upon the human wall in front of him.

Perhaps Yang Wanli's attitude angered the scholars, and some of them spoke out loudly.

"Students, we must not let that villain from the Cui Mansion look down on us. We can lose our heads and bleed, but we must not lose our courage! It's just a matter of death! Then let's start with me, Li Wenming!"

After Li Wenming's encouragement, the scholars' lost courage began to slowly recover, and the human wall straightened up again.

"It seems that they will not give up until they see the Yellow River. Let's find someone to kill and see if these scholars are afraid of death."

Cui Wanli shouted loudly, pointing at Li Wenming.

The head of the security guard raised his sword and chopped at the heads of Li Wenming's men.

A flash of knife light appeared, and Li Wenming was about to be killed. At the critical moment, a stone suddenly appeared and hit the guard's hand that was tightly holding the knife.

With a "clang", the steel knife in the guard's hand fell to the ground.

"Don't hurt my son, I'm here!"

Then a loud shout was heard.

A fat, dark man flew over the heads of the people and stood in front of the human wall.

"Huh!" The scholar standing next to Li Wenming let out a long sigh and put his heart back into his stomach.

"Brothers, we can't just stand by and watch them chop us down. Let's fight them. We have more people than them!"

Li Wenming shouted loudly and took the lead in attacking the guards.

The angry scholars stepped forward one after another, and the servants who accompanied them were afraid that the scholars would get hurt, so they picked up sticks on the ground and started beating the guards.

The guards immediately looked aggrieved.

We are just following orders!

In fact, they didn't dare to take any action when faced with these scholars.

The scholars of this era, unlike vagrants and beggars, are privileged and are people that ordinary people cannot mess with.

The head of the security guard just wanted to make an example of someone and start a fight. If they really wanted to kill these scholars, they wouldn't dare to do it even if they had a hundred guts!

They watched helplessly as the scholars broke through the guards' blockade and advanced step by step towards the inner courtyard of Cui's mansion.

Seeing this scene, the refugees and beggars who had not left far came back again, followed closely behind the scholars, and attacked the Cui Mansion.

Seeing that the situation began to develop in an unfavorable direction and could no longer be contained, Cui Wanli shouted loudly.

"Hurry up and take my visiting card to Wannian County Government Office!"

The angry scholars broke through the blockade of the guards, kicked over the screen wall blocking the way, opened the inner door, and swarmed in.

Although Cui Wanli mobilized a large number of guards, they did not dare to take action.

"Where is Cui Zei?"

The scholars pulled at the clothes of the guards, scaring them so much that they trembled all over.

"The master hasn't returned from court yet, only...only the young master and the mistress are here!"

"go!"

The angry scholars rushed into the inner hall with sticks in hand.

When Cui Wanli saw that something was wrong, he quickly climbed out of the window and fled.

"There's another one here!"

A scholar found Cui Wu, who was seriously ill, lying on a bed.

Li Wenming grabbed a maid and asked.

"Who is this person?"

"Yes...it's the Third Young Master!"

The maid replied tremblingly.

"It turned out to be Puppy Cui."

"When the old thief is gone, it's the same to beat the little thief!"

A scholar said.

"kill him!"

"kill him!"

The scholars swarmed over and punched and kicked Cui Wu.

At first, Cui Wu was still wailing and struggling, but in the end, when Cui Wu became motionless, the scholars finally stopped.

Even so, the scholars' saliva and phlegm still covered Cui Wu's entire body.

"Is it dead?"

Someone asked worriedly.

The maids and servants huddled aside, trembling.

"It's better if they die. We are here today for the sake of the country and to punish the thief Cui. Kill one less! If anything goes wrong, our Imperial Household will be held responsible."

"And my White Deer Academy!"

Two handsome scholars stepped forward and expressed their willingness to take responsibility this time.

The other scholars cheered loudly.

In just a short while, these two men became their temporary leaders.

The angry scholars eventually demolished the inner house of Cui's mansion until not a single tile was left.

On the other side, those vagrant beggars poured into the flower hall of Cui's mansion and began to loot the antiques, calligraphy and paintings, furniture and other valuables.

In the end, someone simply gathered the flammable tents and quilts together, took out a tinder and set them on fire.

Soon, flames appeared in the inner courtyard of Cui Mansion and thick smoke billowed.

No one knows how much property the Cui family lost this time.

Many scholars told the people around them about this matter. When the people of Chang'an heard about it, they also cursed Cui for making money from the national crisis and bringing harm to the country and the people.

For a time, the news of the scholars causing chaos in Cui's mansion spread throughout Chang'an City.

Cui Wu was beaten to death!

Cui Xing was seriously injured!

Cui Wanli managed to escape with his life, but he was also very scared!

Not long after, Wannian County Government dispatched a large number of military officers to quell the situation here.

Although some scholars were arrested, everyone present knew that the government did not dare to touch those scholars and it was just a formality at most.

Because scholars have privileges and are in a dominant position!

The people’s will cannot be violated!

Just as the situation in Cui's mansion was in full swing, Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji set out on their journey to the Shenxing Li family.
