Chapter 8: The Beggar Gang

In the remote alley, Chen Ning captured the old beggar.

"Who wants to kill Li Qingkong?" Chen Ning asked.

The old beggar shook his head and said, "I don't know either!"

Crunch...

Chen Ning took the opportunity to break his wrist back and asked, "You fucking money to kill people. Don't you know how to check the identity of Guzhu? Assassin like you can never make a fortune."

The old beggar was so painful that tears came out, and said, "Reporting to the hero, the villain really doesn't know! The other party has found many assassins. I heard that I had made a lot of money to pay. I was entrusted by other assassins to investigate Li Qingkong's movements. It happened that the villain's eyeliner was a beggar in the city. I found out that she often gave porridge, so I wanted to take the rewards myself!"

"So that's it! What's the reputation of this Li Qingkong?" Chen Ning asked.

The old beggar said, "He is a young lady from a noble family, and the villain is not very clear."

Chen Ning let go and smiled and said, "Okay, what should be asked is over, you can leave."

The old beggar thought the other party would kill someone to silence him, but he didn't expect to let him leave. He retreated cautiously a few feet, and then ran away.

It can be seen that the old beggar was particularly familiar with the streets in the city. He was relieved after making sure that no one was following him, and then returned home.

"Goodun, hurry up and get the plywood for me, my wrist is broken." The old beggar roared.

"Dad, what's wrong with your hand?" A young man walked out of the house and asked in a hurry.

The old beggar shook his head and said, "Don't mention it, where is your sister?"

"I went out to touch the money." The boy said.

The old beggar nodded and said, "When your sister comes back, tell her to stay at home honestly, don't cause trouble recently, I have to hide for a few days, don't meet that bastard..."

"Old guy, it's not good to curse people behind your back!"

Suddenly, the sound from behind made the old beggar's face change drastically. He looked back and saw that at some point Chen Ning was sitting on the wall of his house and was looking at him with a smile.

However, this smile was so cold in the eyes of the old beggar, just like a butcher's knife raised.

How did he chase him? He was already careful enough.

The old beggar shivered and suddenly realized that the other party deliberately let him go just to chase him to his home, so that he would have the handle to control himself.

A little guy who is so scheming, how old is he?

In fact, the old beggar was very alert, like a loach, walking back and forth in complex streets. If Chen Ning had not worked as a scout in his previous life and had first-class tracking skills, he might have lost it.

Jumped off the wall and Chen Ning walked into the yard.

The old beggar immediately protected the young man, held the dagger tightly with another pretty good hand, and shouted: "Little brother, stay at the forefront of being a human being, please show mercy, otherwise..."

Chen Ning asked with a smile: "Or what would you do?"

The old beggar took two steps forward, and the dagger in his hand was held tighter and tighter. He sneered and said, "I was also a master who was famous in the world back then. If you force me tightly, don't blame me for using my ultimate move!"

"What trick?" Chen Ning became interested.

The cultivation level of warriors in this world is divided into eight realms. Although Chen Ning has extraordinary martial arts, he is only equivalent to the fourth realm of martial arts.

If you want to become a great martial artist, you must develop internal strength.

That's right, this world has the internal energy method that has been lost in ancient times. This is also the happiest thing that Chen Ning has felt when he travels through time.

The old beggar snorted coldly and took two steps forward, only one square away from Chen Ning, reaching the excellent range of the attack.

In a duel between experts, this distance is the best position to take human life.

Chen Ning noticed the change in the old beggar's momentum. He had a more knife? Could it be that the other party had the unique skill of killing with one knife?

Just when the atmosphere was so serious, the old beggar suddenly knelt down and begged:

"Little brother, please spare me. I am young and old. I have not married at this age. You are not careful about villains. Please spare us!"

Chen Ning:...

Damn, what about the trick?

This move...well, it's also a unique move.

Seeing his adoptive father kneeling down, the young man behind him was furious and rushed over immediately: "Don't hurt my adoptive father!"

Bang...

Hey! The boy also knelt down, one old and one young, and he was very skilled in kneeling. It seems that he has done such things a lot.

It’s good to bend and stretch, and Chen Ning just needs such talents.

So Chen Ning waved his hand and said, "Get up, if I want to kill you, I will have taken action long ago!"

"Take it seriously?" asked the old beggar.

Chen Ning narrowed his eyes and asked, "Have you forgotten my title?"

"Yes, yes, yes, the layman said nothing." The old beggar then breathed a sigh of relief and pulled the boy to stand up.

Chen Ning took out a piece of silver from his arms and threw it to the boy, and said, "Go and get some good wine and food, I'll talk to your adoptive father!"

The boy took the money and hurriedly smiled and went out to prepare.

The old beggar then firmly believed that Chen Ning was not here to seek revenge, so he quickly asked Chen Ning to enter the house, wipe the bench and the table, and asked Chen Ning to sit down.

Chen Ning sat down and asked, "Is this your adopted son?"

The old beggar also sat down and said, "I picked it up. I didn't marry a wife, I didn't have a son. I picked up a son and kept it for him to die. By the way, layman, you come here. Do you have any arrangements? You can bring it up as soon as possible and I will do it."

Chen Ning reached into his arms, took out his purse, opened it, and poured all the silver inside on the table.

"I only have this dozen taels of silver, which is not small, but not much. If you give your adopted son some money to learn calligraphy, it is very important to learn literacy in this life. If you encounter a good opportunity in the future, you can make a name for yourself. You don't want him to be a beggar and assassin like you." Chen Ning smiled.

The old beggar was stunned when he looked at Yinzi, not understanding Chen Ning's intention, but he was moved and asked, "Do you have any other arrangements for the layman?"

Chen Ning nodded and continued, "You should use the remaining silver first. You just said that your eyeliner is a beggar from Pengcheng. I just entered the city and found that there are many beggars in the city. If you can use it well, it will be an eyeliner in the city. So you can win over the remaining silver."

Speaking of this, Chen Ning's voice became heavier and asked, "How about you follow me in the future? Being a beggar and assassin will die at any time. You follow me, no need to fight hard, just pull the intelligence network for me, and I will give you endless money! How about it?"

The old beggar was a little stunned. He didn't expect that the other party would win over him. He was a beggar for his whole life, and he had never been valued so much.

Chen Ning said again: "If you don't think about yourself, you should also think about your adopted son. What do you think?"

The old beggar did not immediately become loyal, but couldn't help asking, "Who is the layman?"

Chen Ning took out a token from his waist and threw it to him.

The old beggar picked up the token and saw that the token was exquisitely crafted. Generally, blacksmiths could not make such a token, and it must be a family belonging to the family. On one side, the token was made of a green mountain pattern, with the character "qing" carved, and on the other side, the character "zhao".

Each aristocratic family has a unique clan emblem and token, which ordinary people dare not imitate. This is also a credential for the mutual acquaintance between the disciples of the aristocratic family.

"Qingzhou Zhao family!" The old beggar recognized the origin of the token, "Is the young master a member of the Zhao family in Qingzhou?"

Chen Ning smiled and said, "That's right, this time I came to Pengcheng because I had an engagement with Li Qingkong, so...

When the old beggar heard this, he was immediately embarrassed.

It turned out that Li Qingkong, whom he assassinated, was the other party's fiancée. In this way, if this person does not kill him, he will be full of kindness.

To be loyal to a middle-class family, for an old beggar, it was a smoke coming from the ancestral tomb.

The old beggar quickly stood up and bowed: "I will follow the instructions of the layman from now on, and will never regret it if I die!"

"Okay! Get up." Chen Ning nodded.

The aristocratic family has the arrogance of aristocratic families and they are disdainful of trying to win over beggars. Not to mention the aristocratic families, even other forces, do not bother with dirty beggars.

They are all beggars who are eating and waiting to die, and they are useless.

But Chen Ning didn't think so.

In the past life, the Beggars' Sect was able to become the largest gang in the world. Even in modern times with advanced technology, the Beggars' Sect's group was a huge force. Beggars were a group of people who were eating and waiting to die, but it has to be admitted that these people were willing to do anything for food.

Chen Ning always likes to plan and make decisions when doing things. Since he decides to live in Pengcheng, he must have his own power.

And winning over beggars is the first step.

"It shouldn't be difficult to win over the beggars as your confidant and act as a spy for you," Chen Ning asked.

Yue Yidao slapped his chest and promised: "Please rest assured, layman, I am also a senior among beggars in Pengcheng. I have a lot of say and can handle it without much money."

Chen Ning smiled and said, "Money is a good thing. Don't be stingy. Use it boldly. I will give you funds every month from now on."
