Chapter 165 Chen Liuxian
Chen Xiucai, whose name is Yu and whose courtesy name is Liuxian, so in this town, everyone calls him Chen Liuxian or Chen Xiucai. However, his name is not because of his status as a scholar, but because of him. That bad gambling habit.
Because his parents had passed away early and had no discipline, even though he passed the examination as a scholar, he was hooked up by the gangsters in the town and got into the habit of gambling. What was originally a rich family fortune has now become a ruin.
He went from being admired by people in the town to being despised now. These changes only happened in just three years, which made some people sigh.
When Yan Daoxing found Chen Liuxian, he was being pressed to the ground and beaten by two big men. However, no matter how the two big men beat him, Chen Liuxian did not say a word until the two big men were panting and finally stopped.
At this time, a thin middle-aged man with a pair of mustaches standing nearby took a step forward, squatted down, patted Chen Liuxian's head with the folding fan in his hand, and said with a hint of irony: "Chen Liuxian, Chen Daxiucai, you It’s time to pay back the money you owe us, a total of one hundred and thirty-six taels of silver. We Mr. Hu have always respected you scholars, so I only need one hundred and thirty-six taels of silver from you. I wonder when you will pay back the money?
” As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Liuxian suddenly laughed. He opened his purple and swollen eyes and said directly to him: "Cai Laoer, you and the casino tricked me into the game, and you used our relationship since childhood to comfort and coax. I buy and sell family property, and now I am even more committed to the evil that that guy from Shu Donghu did. In half a year when I am in high school, I will eradicate all of you human-skin monsters who are doing evil!" "Hmph, Chen Yu, you grew up in a wealthy family, not only did you not
help Our family, on the other hand, pretended to be close friends and showed off their literary talents and family background in front of me. At that time, I secretly swore that I would make you taste the pain of my childhood and make you lose all my wealth and fame. There is no way to advance.
Originally, the world was already in chaos due to war, and it was almost impossible for you to get a meritorious title. But now it seems that I have to be careful. Once you turn over and get shitty luck, what will happen next? It's very troublesome, so I'm going to stop your path to fame now. As a scholar who can't write, I don't see how you can continue to take exams to seek fame!" After saying this, Cai Laoer pulled out a gun with a look of resentment and resentment on his face
. He raised his foot and stepped on Chen Liuxian's right hand with the dagger, then swung the dagger and stabbed his right hand.
But at this moment, a stone suddenly flew out and hit Cai Laoer's wrist. Severe pain hit him. Cai Laoer felt that his hand was numb and weak, and the pain was extremely severe. The dagger in his hand It fell to the ground unconsciously, and he was covering his wrist. Seeing that his wrist was swollen, he began to cry uncontrollably.
At this time, Yan Dao Xing came from not far away. Without any nonsense, he raised his hand and slapped Cai Lao Er away. The left side of Cai Lao Er's face was swollen like a pig's head. His body spun twice and fell to the ground. On the ground, he seemed to be unconscious, and the two thugs still wanted to fight with Yandao, but they were still slapped away by one of them.
For monks who are in the realm of refining qi, ordinary people like him simply cannot bear the power of his slap. If they had not restrained their power through words and deeds, then these three people would probably have their heads blown off.
He stretched out his hand to pull up Chen Liuxian, who was still confused, and said directly to him: "Are you okay? These people are hateful and want to do such cruel things. I couldn't see past them, so I stopped them. I don't know if you have You haven't been damaged by them. Do you need me to take you to the hospital?"
There are often rumors of sword immortals in Bashu, and strange people and strange things emerge in endlessly. People who reach out like this in words, deeds, and deeds are not too impressive. Surprised, Chen Liuxian just breathed a sigh of relief, came to his senses, endured the severe pain in his body, bowed to Yandao, and said: "I can't repay the kindness of saving my life. I don't know the name of my benefactor, can you tell me?"
" My surname is Yan and my name is Daoxing. I came here to visit my relatives. Unfortunately, my relatives have passed away, which makes me quite regretful." After hearing
this, Chen Liuxian immediately said: "I am presumptuous. I am Chen Yu, courtesy name Liuxian. , Young Master Yan, just call me Chen Liuxian."
He nodded, looked at Chen Liuxian in Yan Daoxing, and said again: "Mr. Chen, I don't know where your home is. If it is convenient, I can take you home. First, You are injured, and secondly, you may encounter those people again on the road."
Chen Liuxian refused intentionally, but when he felt the severe pain in many places on his body and Cai Laoer's madness just now, he did not say any words of rejection after all, and slowly Nodding, he said apologetically: "Then thank you Mr. Chen."
"It's okay."
After saying that, he helped Chen Liuxian walk towards the nearby Chen family's mansion. Along the way, he bought some bruises and some medicine. After some food and drinks, led by the increasingly embarrassed Chen Liuxian, they arrived at the Chen family's mansion, which had a large empty house but only four walls.
Yan Daoxing didn't seem to notice the Chen family's behavior, which made Chen Liuxian slightly relieved, and he felt more favorable towards Yan Daoxing in his heart.
When he was still young, under the double blow of his parents' death and his failure in the imperial examination, Chen Liuxian fell into the plot of his childhood playmate Cai Laoer and lost Ruoda's family fortune. Now, although he has reflected on his past, he has made a lot of mistakes. He was even more regretful about the matter. Originally, he was afraid that he would look down on himself after knowing his actions. Now that he didn't ask about these things, he was happy not to say those things and just treat them as normal interactions.
After all, in the past three years, he has gone from a sought-after young scholar to a gambler who everyone wishes he had nothing to do with. The psychological gap is huge. It is not easy for him to have a peer who can treat him normally without any traces of it. The meaning of dodging and looking down on is something that Chen Liuxian, who has been somewhat lonely in the past three years, cherishes.
After taking out the medicine, food and drinks, he didn't say much nonsense in his words and deeds, and started eating and drinking with Chen Liuxian. The two of them chatted while eating, and talked about the legend of the Bashu Sword Immortal, which was quite pleasant.
Yan Daoxing looked at Chen Liuxian, joking and joking, while mentally thinking about how to take the relationship with him further. It would be best to reach the level of sworn friends. As long as he could firmly grasp Chen Liuxian, the second generation disciple of the Qingcheng Sword Sect, One of the Nineteen Heroes of Qingcheng, Chen Taizhen, a junior layman, has a very high probability of getting the true biography of Qingcheng from Chen Taizhen!
