Xuanxia

Chapter 128 Aftermath
In the alley behind the Changjie Restaurant, Fu Qingzhou was changing his clothes in a hurry.

Just now he played that nameless nobleman so hateful that he had to change his identity quickly. If he was discovered, he would be slapped with shit in his face...

"The counselor puts himself in the game, uses his own evil to induce the good in others. This is wise, wise."

Just then, a deep female voice suddenly came from behind him.

Fu Qingzhou was startled and turned back suddenly.

I saw an old woman appear in the alley at some point. She had silver hair, was wearing simple cloth clothes, and had a slightly hunched back. She looked like an ordinary farm woman.

But Fu Qingzhou recognized her.

Over the past two years, this old woman has appeared at the foot of Langhuan Mountain and spoken.

"Senior Zuo."

He smiled slightly, put on his coat, and bowed earnestly, "I see you have been watching all along."

Zuo Lamei was not surprised at all when her identity was revealed. Instead, she narrowed her small eyes and looked at the young man in front of her for a few seconds.

"Oh...it's you."

After a while, she suddenly realized, "Long Dabei's disciple, Qingsongzi's junior, no wonder he is so outstanding."

Fu Qingzhou was startled: "Senior, have you recognized me so soon?"

"Tsk." Zuo Lamei sneered: "Although my eyesight is dim, I am not blind yet."

Fu Qingzhou smiled.

Yes, although I don’t know what realm this senior is at, but judging from the scene two years ago, he is most likely not worse than Wu Yue. He must be at least at the ninth level of Lingqiao.

For such a master, even if he had only seen me once two years ago, it would be easy for him to recognize me now.

"This junior is rude."

He smiled and bowed again: "This time, I acted rashly and disrupted your plan to teach Ding Shuanghe a lesson. Please forgive me."

Zuo Lamei laughed dryly: "Back then, the three major sects, Jinchan Temple, Palm Sword Academy, and Ziqi Xianfeng Temple, were unable to snatch you from Qingsongzi. Now that you have done a great job, how dare I be dissatisfied with you?"

Fu Qingzhou coughed lightly.

Why does this old man speak so shady...

But masters always have some strange tempers, so he didn't mind it. He just smiled and said, "Senior, you are joking. I am just going with the flow."

This was just a polite remark, but Zuo Lamei narrowed her eyes after hearing it: "Really? Tell me, how did you go with the flow? Why do you think you went with the flow of my situation?"

"Uh……"

Fu Qingzhou had a toothache.

It's like when you are in an interview and you politely say "I like your company very much", but the interviewer insists on asking you why you like it and how much you know about the company...

"Well, because the curse on Ding Shuanghe's youngest son is not difficult to break."

He could only answer softly: "Of course, it doesn't take 500,000 taels of gold to treat the disease. What Senior Zuo really wants to do is to make Ding Shuanghe, who has exploited the people of Meifeng City for several years, bow his head and sincerely admit his mistakes."

“I half coaxed and half tricked him into kneeling and kowtowed, then pretended to leave for a joke. On the one hand, I wanted to let the people see clearly that Ding Shuanghe is not a man who has committed all kinds of evil and has no humanity. On the other hand... hehe, I wanted to take away the reputation of the worst person in the hearts of the people. First there is anger, then there is pity.” Zuo Lamei listened with squinted eyes, staring at Fu Qingzhou sideways.

After a long while, she slowly asked, "Many of those people are planning to invest to buy back their own properties. How can you guarantee that Ding Shuanghe will hand over the contract?"

Fu Qingzhou smiled: "Last night, I tricked Ding Shuanghe into handing over all the property contracts to me. Now this matter is beyond his control. I will handle it myself."

Zuo Lamei asked again: "Ding Shuanghe spent all his family wealth to save his son. The Kuaijian Sect is almost destroyed. The disciples are innocent and have to wander around. How will you deal with it?"

They lost all their wealth because you asked for an outrageous price...

Fu Qingzhou muttered in his heart, but just smiled and said: "A sect does not need a high-ranking family or a large crowd. As long as there is a legacy left, even if there is only one place and one person left, it is not considered extinct."

"Now that the Kuaijian Sect has abandoned its unnecessary industries and regained the sympathy of the people, it still has a place in Meifeng City. As long as Ding Shuanghe is willing and there are disciples willing to follow him, the Kuaijian Sect will still exist."

Zuo Lamei's eyes were slightly stern, and she nodded slightly: "As long as there is a legacy left, even if there is only one person left in one place, it is not considered extinct... Well said..."

At this moment, she finally smiled: "Young man, you are kind-hearted and experienced, and your future is limitless. But forcing people to kneel and kowtow is such an evil trick... It's better not to learn these things from Qingsongzi."

Yes, yes, yes, these evil schemes were all taught by Qingsongzi!
Fu Qingzhou nodded repeatedly.

He didn't know why his cheap uncle had such a bad reputation, but he just nodded!

Of course, he also noticed that Zuo Lamei was not surprised at all that he knew that "the curse is not difficult to break" and "it does not require five hundred thousand taels of gold", which meant that she thought she should have learned these things in the past two years in Langhuan Mountain.

Hmm...if those secret manuals were not written in words so ugly that they make people feel physically uncomfortable, my learning efficiency would be much higher. Maybe I would really be able to do this.

She also didn't mention another thing at all - even if everyone in the city contributed money, the total amount would definitely not reach 500,000 taels of gold. But she didn't care. Fu Qingzhou even guessed that except for those who contributed money to buy shops, the money of the rest of the donors would eventually return to them.

"Okay, I will take care of the aftermath."

"Over at the Golden Sword Villa, its owner, Jin Xiao, still gave me some face, and the feud with the Fast Sword Sect can be put behind us now."

Zuo Lamei whispered, "Also, hand over all the contracts to me, and I will make the arrangements. I have already promised to cure the curse and save people, so you don't have to worry about it."

Fu Qingzhou keenly understood the meaning behind it: "Senior... do you have something to tell me?"

"good."

Zuo Lamei said helplessly: "Ding Shuanghe couldn't have completed this task so quickly. I have other things to do recently... But since you have helped him raise money, I have to go and treat him. Then someone needs to do the other thing."

Fu Qingzhou scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed: "Senior, I actually have something to do here. I came to Kuaijianmen to find Wulin League. I have something to ask of them..."

"Okay, how long have you been in Meifeng City?"

Zuo Lamei glared at him and said, "Kuaijianmen will deliver the message for you. It will take at least five days to send a letter by carrier pigeon. This old man will only delay you for three days!"

Fu Qingzhou laughed dryly: "May I ask what is going on, Senior?"

Zuo Lamei gave him a deep look.

"I want you to go to Baifo Mountain, fifty miles west of the city. There is a dilapidated temple in the forest at the foot of the mountain. There is an injured scholar in the temple. I want you to protect him for three days."

"Do this well. It will be of great benefit to you in the future."
