The Swordsman who started from Baicaotang

Baicaotang.

After holding a mid-grade sword, Cui Meng was overjoyed. He waved it twice and was very satisfied.

Mr. Gui did not urge him, but just stroked his beard and smiled.

Yes.

I don't know when, a wisp of beard actually grew under Gui's chin, and it looks quite long. I guess his previous hidden illness has been cured.

Cui Meng had regained his slavery and obtained a mid-grade sword. When he was about to leave, he remembered something.

"This morning, Hu Liu and Huang Feng came to Baicaotang to buy elixirs. On the way, Wu Changjun, Yang Minghui and four others coveted the elixirs on them and demanded them by force, even resorting to violence. Please, Mr. Gui, be fair!"

In fact, Mr. Gui already knew about it. When Wu Changjun and his four companions surrounded Hu Liu and Huang Feng, someone had already passed the news to him.

The entire Qingshan City is just a thatched house with air leaking from all sides. There is no secret there. As long as you make a move, there will be millions of eyes watching you.

Wu Changjun and the other three were not simple people. Their elders were all high-ranking officials of Baicaotang, or at least a deacon. Originally, Gui Lao didn't want to get involved in this matter, but since it involved Cui Meng, he decided to go there anyway.

But he didn't expect that when he arrived, Cui Meng was also there, so he didn't show up. This time Cui Meng brought it up again, and it was not easy to just brush it off.

"How dare Wu Changjun and the other three do such a shameful thing? I will talk to their elders later and scold them personally. They are so young and don't learn good things. Baicaotang will never allow them to learn such evil ways!"

Hearing this, Cui Meng replied respectfully: "Thank you, Mr. Gui! I will disturb your rest then."

"go Go!"

Watching Cui Meng leave, Gui Lao's eyes were somewhat surprised. It seemed that Hu Liu held a high position in Cui Meng's heart. Cui Meng would rather offend the elders of the four people than seek justice for Hu Liu.

Love and justice!

Such people can indeed be cultivated vigorously. One day, when Baicaotang is in danger, Cui Meng will be able to remember their old friendship.

Hu Liu is so lucky to have such a brother.

After a moment, Gui Lao secretly sent a message: "Wu Qingshui, come to see me quickly!"

Whoosh!

After a few breaths, a breeze blew by. A middle-aged man came here, clasped his fists and bowed respectfully.

"Mr. Gui, what do you want me to do?"

Transmitting sound secretly is definitely not a trivial matter. Only a first-rate master can do it. A first-rate master has opened up the Ren and Du meridians, and has extremely strong true qi, so he can gather the qi into sound and transmit it accurately to his ears.

It seems that Master Gui has recovered his skills and has become a first-rate master again.

"Wu Qingshui, your young man Wu Changjun teamed up with Yang Minghui and four others to learn how to rob houses like the bandits in the mountains. You taught them well!"

What? ! !

Is this happening?

Wu Qingshui was shocked, and then immediately rejected it: "Mr. Gui, it is impossible! Someone must have framed and slandered Changjun. Please, Mr. Gui, seek justice!"

"This is absolutely true! No need to quibble!" Gui Lao replied calmly.

"This morning, at noon, I saw with my own eyes that Wu Changjun and his four men drew their swords and surrounded Hu Liu and Huang Feng. Fortunately, Cui Meng arrived in time and the two sides stopped fighting and made peace, otherwise someone would have died!"

Since Gui Lao saw it with his own eyes, there was no need to defend himself. This must be absolutely true.

"Master Gui, I still can't figure it out. Changjun and those two people didn't know each other at all, why would he do such a stupid thing? I guess there must be a traitor who instigated it. Please investigate!"

Damn traitor!

"I already know the whole story. It was you, Chang Jun, who saw the elixirs on the two people and had evil thoughts. He did such a stupid thing!"

"Master Gui, who are Hu Liu and Huang Feng? Where did the elixirs they carry come from?"

"One is the manager of the Medicine Servant Courtyard, and the other is a medicine servant. The elixirs they carry were bought with silver from the Dan Building, and the silver was a reward from Commander Qin."

By this time Wu Qingshui already knew that these two people were the protagonists of the incident and were rewarded by Commander Qin himself. The names had even reached the ears of the old hall master.

There is really no way to defend myself!

"You already know the whole story of this matter, is there anything you don't understand?"

"no!"

"Okay!" Gui Lao replied.

"From today on, the salaries of Wu Changjun, Yang Minghui and the other three will be cut off, and Baicaotang will no longer support them."

What? ! !

The punishment is so severe!

Wu Qingshui immediately spoke up: "Mr. Gui, please think twice! Changjun and the others are young and ignorant, as long as they try to change their ways, everything will be fine. I, Wu Qingshui, am loyal to Baicaotang. Even if I have no merits, I have worked hard over the years. Please reconsider, Mr. Gui!"

"No need!" Gui Lao replied calmly.

"This matter has already spread, there is no room for maneuver. If they want to blame someone, they should blame themselves. Their greed at the moment has ultimately ruined their own future."

"Let's go!"

With a flick of his sleeve, a powerful force came and pushed Wu Qingshui ten steps away. Obviously there was no chance to argue.

At this time, Wu Qingshui didn't dare to speak. He was shocked and angry.

What was shocking was that even though his cultivation was at the peak of the third-rate level, he was easily pushed away by Gui Lao. The difference in strength between the two was so great that it was difficult to estimate.

He was angry because his son Wu Changjun had done such a stupid thing and lost the strong support of Baicaotang. His future cultivation would be more difficult. Of course, he did not expect that Gui Lao would ruin his son's future for two servants.

He absolutely did not believe that Mr. Gui would do such a thing for two servants. There must be someone trying to interfere and sow discord between them.

After careful consideration, it is rumored that Hu Liu has a brother.

Cui Meng!

Just now on the road, he met Cui Meng. As soon as Cui Meng left, Gui Lao called him over. It seemed that Cui Meng was making a accusation and ruining his son's future.

What an inappropriate son of man!

Don’t be fooled by Cui Meng’s big and strong appearance. He actually does bad things behind the scenes and can’t be considered a hero!

How to do?

It's really unacceptable!

Ruining someone's future is like killing their parents! Of course, he couldn't find trouble with Gui Lao, so he could only put all his resentment on Cui Meng and the others.

After thinking it over again and again, he had no choice but to leave.

Watching the figure leave, Old Gui snorted coldly.

“Like father, like son!”

There was a reason why he was so harsh. Baicaotang was a large family with a long history, so it was inevitable that some bad people would appear.

Wu Qingshui was one of the parasites. He was good at withholding pills and reselling medicinal materials. However, many people were doing the same thing, and he could only turn a blind eye and pretend he didn't see it.

Moreover, these people were very clever, and it could be said that there was no leakage at all, and there was no evidence against them at all. Now that there was a reason, they would naturally be punished, hoping to shock them and make them restrain themselves.

If we really investigate, few of the senior executives of Baicaotang are clean. It is impossible to bring down all these people. Will he have to do everything by himself? Isn't it worth it to die of exhaustion!

Due to many concerns, Mr. Gui only punished Wu Changjun and four others, and did not take any action against Wu Qingshui.
