Reborn Tianlong: I practice martial arts for immortality

"In more than a month, everything has changed."

I walked into the house and there was no one there.

Although the furnishings in the house had changed, it was not messy. It seemed that Second Aunt had also cleaned it.

Looking at the familiar scene, Jiang Weichen recalled every detail of his family's previous life.

"There's no going back. Nothing can go back."

At this time, Jiang Tianxiao, who heard the noise nearby, came to the door and shouted excitedly:

"Brother, are you back?"

Jiang Weichen turned around and saw Jiang Tianxiao holding the baby.

"Where are my second uncle, second aunt, and my sister?"

"My parents went to work for the Liu family. They're such a jerk. They leave early and come back late every day. They have to do a lot more work than when we were farming on our own. My parents are so exhausted."

Having said this, he paused before saying, "I heard from my dad that Xiao He was captured by that villain. Her whereabouts are unknown, and we don't know whether she is alive or dead."

Although Jiang Weichen had expected this, if the Liu family didn't let him go, how could they let Xiaohe go?

I just thought that Xiaohe was only three years old and her memory was not very deep, so maybe she didn’t care.

But now all hope is dashed. The Liu family has captured Xiao He, but it is not known whether they have killed her.

Even if he was not killed, he is definitely not in the Liu family in Xinghua Village.

The village is so small, everyone is familiar with it. When I help the Liu family with work, I will also go in and out of the Liu family. No one has seen Xiao He for such a long time.

Either they have been killed or taken to other places.

Jiang Weichen took a deep breath and then said, "Is there anything to eat at home?"

"Yes, big brother, help me hold Tianhe, I'll go get it."

Jiang Tianxiao held Jiang Tianhe in his arms and looked at Jiang Tianhe, who was less than one year old.

I also thought of how my second aunt showed off to my mother at that time.

This made the mother decide to have another child, but unfortunately the baby died in the womb not long after she became pregnant.

Jiang Weichen ate the rice in its shell and felt a little uncomfortable when he thought about the past.

Before I was four years old, I couldn't eat rice with the shell on.

My mother removed all the rice husks, but she couldn't bear to throw them away and ate them all herself.

Most children, except when they are just weaned, will peel the shells to make it easier to swallow. After that, they have to eat with the shells.

Jiang Weichen couldn't eat, not only because he was young but also because his esophagus found it difficult to swallow.

It's more of a psychological effect from the previous life.

From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality.

With the delicious food from his previous life, he naturally found it difficult to swallow when he first started eating it.

It wasn't until I was four years old that I gradually adapted.

My parents never forced me and always gave me the best.

Chapter 22 Questioning

Jiang Tianxiao, who was standing next to him, looked at the machete on the table and asked curiously, "Brother, where did you get this machete? It's so cool.

Unlike the ugly machete at home, this one will definitely be very easy to chop wood with."

Jiang Weichen, whose thoughts were interrupted, said casually: "I picked it up on the roadside. This machete is not for chopping wood, but it can also be used to chop wood."

In the previous month, Jiang Weichen practiced swordsmanship in the mountains. In addition to normal practice, he practiced with trees as targets.

It was only then that Jiang Tianxiao noticed that Jiang Weichen was missing a finger on his right hand.

"Brother, what happened to your hand? Why is there a finger missing?"

Jiang Weichen replied, "It was chopped up more than a month ago."

"Are people outside so bad?" Jiang Tianxiao was a little scared. His elder brother had his fingers chopped off after only one month outside.

Jiang Weichen said, "Tianxiao, remember, this world is dark and the strong prey on the weak. We may not actively harm others, but we must be on guard.

You can’t trust anyone completely except your parents.”

Jiang Tianxiao was a little confused and said, "Can't you completely trust Big Brother?"

Jiang Weichen's expression froze for a moment, then he said, "Yes, I can't completely believe it either."

Jiang Tianxiao was a little confused. If he couldn't believe his elder brother, then he would be even more unbelievable even if his friends who usually played with him didn't believe it.

Looking at my brother's missing finger, the scars on it are still fresh.

It's been a month, why is the scar still so fresh?

Jiang Tianxiao didn't know what his elder brother had experienced in the past month, and felt that he had changed so much.

After eating, Jiang Weichen said, "Go get me some more food, and some pickled meat."

"Brother, how come you can eat so much now? But the meat is raw."

"It's okay, go get some, I'll be leaving soon."

"Brother, are you still leaving? It's okay. The bad guy hasn't appeared in this month."

"Don't ask too many questions. Don't tell Uncle and Aunt that I came back. You haven't seen me either, okay? Don't say a word."

Jiang Weichen said seriously.

"Brother, why?"

"Don't ask anymore. If you know too much, you won't be able to keep secrets and it will bring disaster upon you."

"Oh, brother, I get it. Why do I feel like you're an adult? You're only one year older than me."

Jiang Weichen has the mindset of an adult, he just kept hiding his incompetence before.

However, children in ancient times were already sensible at the age of eight, and Tianxiao was much more sensible than ordinary children.

"Go quickly. If your uncle and aunt ask you, just say you stole it."

Jiang Tianxiao was speechless. It would have been fine if he had just stolen a little, but he was afraid that he would be beaten for stealing so much, including meat.

They were reluctant to eat the meat and it took them a long time to eat a little bit.

But he still turned around to get something.

Jiang Weichen took out two strings of copper coins from his arms, each string worth five hundred coins, which added up to one or two taels of silver, which he considered as the meal money. He didn't have any extra money.

This was earned by killing Zhang Tie, the minor official.

Jiang Weichen placed it in a hidden corner next to the bed so that Second Aunt could see it when she cleaned the house.

Let Second Aunt think that it was left by my father and mother.

If I leave it to Jiang Tianxiao, my second uncle and second aunt will definitely ask about it.

Knowing that I had been back and making some noise afterwards, they would inevitably reveal their flaws.

It would be bad to be suspected by the Liu family.

Jiang Weichen took the food and the machete and said, "I'm leaving now. Remember, don't tell anyone that I'm back."

Jiang Weichen took the food to a nearby mountain, and then began to change positions and monitor with a knife.

I haven't seen anyone from the Liu family who has status and is alone.

He must capture someone who has a high status in the Liu family and force him to tell him the whereabouts of his younger sister.

The longer the time goes, the more dangerous the situation will be for my younger sister.

If my younger sister was trafficked, it would not be easy to find her.

But the Liu family's manor is in the middle of the village. If we go there to arrest people, we will make a noise and be recognized, which will implicate my second uncle and aunt.

Although the Liu family was only a small landlord in the village, Old Master Liu had four or five sons.

After arriving in Xinghua Village, he asked his son to take many wives and concubines. He now has nearly twenty grandchildren, seven or eight of whom are already seventeen or eighteen years old.

If several of them hadn't died prematurely, there would have been even more.

Not only was the land in the village purchased by his family at a low price, but sericulture, silk reeling and cloth weaving had also long been monopolized by the Liu family.

Everything that could generate income was almost monopolized by the Liu family, and it really took the entire village's strength to support his family.

Jiang Weichen didn't see anyone left alone until dark, so he returned to where he had put the food.

After eating, Jiang Weichen began to exercise and practice swordsmanship.

Old Master Liu and his sons never left the village, and Jiang Weichen had no choice.

The next day, seeing housekeeper Liu and the tenant going out, he decided to change his target to see if there was any chance.

Old Master Liu, his son, and Butler Liu are the most likely to know the whereabouts of my younger sister.

The other tenants and grandchildren probably don’t know about it.

Catching them would only alert the enemy.

As a result, half of the time had passed and Butler Liu had been staying with the tenant, thinking that he had no chance.

Unexpectedly, Butler Liu thought the sun was a little too strong, so he assigned the tasks and prepared to go back.

Jiang Weichen wrapped his head in sackcloth and hurried to the road he had to pass to wait.

The fields in the village are very close to the village, but Old Master Liu couldn't resist his greed and kept reclaiming the land.

This place is almost two or three miles away from the village.

As long as he left alone, Jiang Weichen would be able to catch him on the way.

Although Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils is a martial arts world, martial arts are not that popular.

Jiang Weichen didn't believe that Butler Liu was a master, and at most he could only show some fake moves.

And with his big belly, he is no match for me because he has no practice.
