MTL - Peerless Ruthless Man, Cut Down the World-Chapter 1 come to this world
Chapter 1 Come to this world
In the winter of the fourth year of Qingli, Linjiang City ushered in the first snow. From midnight to early morning, the whole city was hidden in the snow.
In a small courtyard deep in Qingping Lane, a gust of cold wind opened the window, awakening the dazed Gu Zhan.
He looked at the strange face of the bronze mirror, and the extra memories in his mind, and he finally accepted the fact that he traveled through.
This is a strange ancient world,
Does not belong to any ancient dynasty in memory, this is a country called Xia, a world with martial arts, and martial arts is still the mainstream of this world.
Even because the Great Xia Dynasty is now on the verge of extinction, martial arts experts can already ignore the law, and some even trample on the law.
Gu Zhan's predecessor was a victim of an era.
The life of the predecessor was not bad at first, which surpassed that of many poor people in this era.
His father was a small banner official in Jinyiwei, and he was considered to be of minor status, not very rich, but still decent.
However, due to the turmoil in the current situation,
The prestige of the imperial court is getting worse and worse, gangs in the rivers and lakes are rampant, and there are still some martial arts masters who do not follow the law and act according to their own wishes.
While patrolling the streets to maintain law and order, Gu Zhan's father clashed with a drunken master of the rivers and lakes, and was killed by the master with a sword. Then, under the eyes of everyone, the master walked away. Arrested and brought to justice.
Because Jinyiwei has a hereditary system,
Gu Zhan went to fill his father's vacancy and became a Jinyiwei Xiaoqi.
However, because Gu Zhan has no talent for martial arts, although he has practiced some boxing skills, he is still an ordinary person with good physical fitness. Although he holds an official position in Jinyiwei, he cannot convince the public and is often excluded.
A few days ago, because I was publicly contradicted by a few Jin Yiwei under my command, I was so angry that I had no choice but to go to the tavern to drink away my sorrows, but I didn't want to, I had a conflict with a few local hooligans in the tavern, and I was beaten seriously injured.
Fortunately, Jin Yiwei passed by and rescued him, otherwise he might have been beaten to death on the spot.
However, although he was not killed,
But he also suffered a lot of injuries, so he has been recuperating at home.
Last night, he drank the medicine and lay down to rest as usual, but after lying down for a long time, he suddenly had a heart attack and died before he could call for help.
Then,
There is Gu Zhan who is now traveling through time.
…
Recalling the death of my predecessor,
Gu Zhan felt that there was something very strange. Although his predecessor had never practiced martial arts, his body was always healthy and free from disease, and the injuries he was beaten before were slowly recovering. No matter how he looked at it, there was no possibility of sudden death.
He carefully recalled the memories in his mind, and finally set his goal on the bowl of medicine he drank before going to bed last night.
He tried to recall the memory in his mind,
He found that there was something wrong with the maid who delivered the medicine to him last night. Normally, that maid had a slow personality and was not arrogant or rash in everything she did. But when he was drinking the medicine last night, the maid kept urging him drink medicine.
It's just that the predecessor trusted that maid, so he didn't pay much attention to it at the time.
Now that Gu Zhan thinks back, he can basically conclude that that maid has a ghost!
"Squeak..."
Just then, the door of the room was pushed open,
A charming woman walked in, and the moment she saw Gu Zhan, her whole body trembled suddenly, a look of panic flashed in her eyes, she was obviously taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Young...Young Master, you are up!" ah!"
Looking at this woman, Gu Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly.
Combining the woman's reaction just now and his own guess, he can basically conclude that the death of his predecessor was caused by this woman.
It’s just that Gu Zhan couldn’t figure it out,
Why did this woman want to harm her predecessor.
This woman's name is Shao Yao, she was originally a beggar, begging on the street, and was targeted by a few hooligans to sell her into a brothel.
Just happened to be seen by Gu Zhan who was passing by, and he immediately stopped it.
After that, Gu Zhan saw that Shaoyao was pitiful, so he took her back home to be a maid, and named her Shaoyao.
Because Gu Zhan's mother passed away early and Gu's father was busy with work, Gu Zhan was always alone. Therefore, after this Shao Yao came to Gu's house, she was called a servant girl, and she was actually Gu Zhan's playmate.
The Gu family didn't really regard Shaoyao as a maid. Later, as Shaoyao grew up, Gu's father even thought about making Gu Zhan take Shaoyao as his concubine, so he always treated Shaoyao as his future daughter-in-law. Treat them like children.
Gu Zhan's predecessor, because he and Shao Yao grew up together, completely regarded Shao Yao as his family.
So, Gu Zhan really couldn't figure it out,
What reason does this peony have to harm her predecessor!
…
Shao Yao looked at Gu Zhan's cold eyes, coupled with her guilty conscience, she also started to feel scared, so she forced a smile and said, "Master, why...why are you looking at me like that?"
Gu Zhan stood up slowly, moved his body slightly,
I don’t know if it’s the benefits of time travel, but the original injuries of the previous body are all healed, and the whole body is also normal.
He ignored Shao Yao, but took down the horizontal knife hanging from the wall, drew the knife out of its sheath, put the knife on Shao Yao's neck, and said coldly, "Why did you hurt me?"
Shao Yao was shocked, and panic flashed in her eyes, but she still argued: "Young...Young Master, what are you talking about, how could I harm you, you..."
"Snapped"
Gu Zhan swung the horizontal knife lightly, and the blade of the knife slapped Shao Yao's beautiful face, and directly knocked Shao Yao to the ground.
With Shaoyao's shocked expression on her face, Gu Zhan put the knife on her shoulder again, and said coldly: "I'll ask you one last time, why did you hurt me? If you don't tell me, I'll kill you directly. You are a maid. If I kill you, I'll just go to the yamen and pay a few taels of silver!"
Shaoyao showed a look of horror on her face, but after a while, she seemed to be relieved again, and said with a sneer, "Why did you hurt you, haha, Gu Zhan, do you think I should be grateful to you and serve you like a cow or a horse?" For the rest of my life, I will be your servant girl for the rest of my life, don't you see that you are worthy?"
Gu Zhan was a little surprised.
Shaoyao continued: "Why, why do I have to be your servant girl? Don't you think you think highly of yourself? Whenever you go out to inquire, whoever sees me in Qingping Lane will call me disrespectfully?" Miss Shaoyao, who doesn't think I'm a big lady, I'm going to someone's house not to be a big young lady,
But what about you, what do you take me for, maid, why should I be your maid for the rest of my life? Do you deserve it? What qualifications do you, Gu Zhan, have for me to serve you? You saved me, but are you sincere? Don't you just want to repay your kindness? Hypocrisy, disgusting! "
"Just for this? Are you going to poison me to death?" Gu Zhan was very surprised and said, "Have you ever thought about why people outside treat you respectfully?"
"Of course it's because I have everyone's demeanor, and because I'm pretty!" Shao Yao said coldly.
"No," Gu Zhan narrowed his eyes and said, "It's just because you are my maid!"
Shao Yao was taken aback for a moment, and was about to retort immediately: "You..."
"There's nothing tricky!"
Gu Zhan directly cut Shao Yao's throat with a knife,
In an instant, the blood sprayed,
Shao Yao's eyes widened, she fell to the ground, her body twitched, and blood flowed on the floor, spreading everywhere.
However, at that moment,
Gu Zhan was stunned,
Because, the moment Shaoyao died,
A mechanical voice suddenly sounded in his mind:
【Experience value +1】
