Chapter 1, Fourth Unlucky Person
Chapter 1, Fourth Unlucky Person
"My son, I'm so sorry, but I really had no other choice..."
The Qin family's courtyard.
The stout and burly Qin Youcai, the head of the Qin family, recounted his hardships with tears streaming down his face.
"Although our Qin family has some money, the Dragon Tiger Gang is not someone we can afford to offend. Wu'er, you've been targeted by the Dragon Tiger Gang's daughter. If your father had any ability, he would never have let you fall into this fire pit..."
Beside him, Qin Wu watched his adoptive father perform with a blank expression.
His acting was excellent; if he had acted before the time travel, he would have been a shoo-in for an Oscar.
"Did you find what I needed?"
Qin Wu spoke.
Qin Youcai wiped the snot and tears from his face and said with a troubled expression:
"What you're asking for are the martial arts school's closely guarded secrets. My Qin family may have some money..."
Seeing Qin Wu's expressionless face, Qin Youcai changed the subject, saying:
"These days, your father has spent a lot of effort, but he has only managed to find out that the Liu Family Martial Arts School has a Tiger-Taming Fist that meets your requirements. However, it is the Liu Family Martial Arts School's signature martial art, and it is not so easy to obtain."
"That's enough."
Qin Wu only replied with three words, then ignored Qin Youcai and instead picked up a long spear from the weapon rack, wielding it with wide, sweeping movements.
Qin Youcai, looking slightly embarrassed, touched his nose and said:
"Then I won't disturb your martial arts practice."
After saying that, Qin Youcai turned and left.
As soon as he stepped out of the courtyard, all his expressions vanished.
The butler, who had been waiting, hurried over and, after taking a few steps, hesitated before saying:
"Master, I heard that the daughter of the Dragon Tiger Gang has already lost three sons-in-law. She is not a good match. What if the Third Young Master makes a scene?"
Qin Youcai glanced back at the courtyard, a hint of reluctance flashing across his face, but it quickly disappeared. He said:
"I wasn't lying to him when I said those things. The Dragon Tiger Gang is indeed not something my Qin family can afford to offend. Since the Dragon Tiger Gang's daughter has taken a liking to the third son, then he has no choice but to marry into the family."
As for making a scene?
Let them make a scene, what can they do about it?
Do you think those guards are just sitting around doing nothing?
As he spoke, he pointed to the cold-noodle guards standing not far away; these were all sent by the Dragon Tiger Gang.
"Fortunately, I have three sons..."
Qin Youcai first sighed, then a glint of light flashed in his eyes, his expression slightly excited, and he continued:
"It's worth it to be able to get in touch with the Dragon Tiger Gang through this opportunity."
Inside the courtyard, Qin Wu practiced for a while, then put down his spear and wiped the fine sweat from his forehead.
"It's been a month already..."
A month ago, he transmigrated into the body of the original owner.
The original owner was Qin Youcai's youngest son. Although he was uneducated and incompetent, he had a very handsome appearance.
Before he could even adjust to this world, the Dragon Tiger Gang came to his door to propose marriage.
It is said that the daughter of the Dragon Tiger Gang has taken a liking to him and wants to take him as her son-in-law.
But Qin Wu searched his memory thoroughly and found no record of having any contact with the Dragon Tiger Gang's daughter.
The only thing I know is that the other party has had three sons-in-law die.
Although he didn't know the reason, he could tell from the expressions and manners of the guards outside the courtyard that he was probably the fourth unlucky one.
"Instead of all that, let's go to Liu's Martial Arts School first."
After thinking it over, Qin Wu changed his clothes and walked out of the courtyard.
As soon as he reached the door, two guards stopped him.
"Young Master Qin, our young lady said that you cannot leave the house before the wedding."
"This is for your own good."
Another guard spoke up, his face revealing an undisguised sarcasm.
If he were a true son-in-law, they would naturally not offend him easily.
But everyone in the Dragon Tiger Gang knows that he's just a scapegoat.
"Although I am engaged to your young lady, we are not married yet, and you have no right to restrict my freedom."
Qin Wu explained.
These people had been there for many days, but he hadn't paid them any attention before.
The martial arts world is flourishing in this world, far better than in his previous life.
He loved practicing martial arts even before he transmigrated, so he certainly wouldn't miss this opportunity now.
So he hadn't planned to go out during this time; he was just focused on practicing martial arts and thinking about how to break out of this predicament in the future.
But things are different now.
A few days ago, while he was practicing martial arts, the tiger spirit suddenly awakened.
It gave him a feeling of being one with the tiger.
However, while it is powerful to wield a tiger's spirit with a human body, there is still a lack of references on how to better utilize the tiger's spirit.
If he could find a martial art that takes the form of a tiger, it would surely allow him to further enhance his strength.
The Tiger-Taming Fist technique of the Liu Family Martial Arts School was something he learned about through his adoptive father.
And that's not all.
He could feel that the tiger's spirit was constantly transforming his physical body.
When he fully merges with the tiger soul, he will surely gain the power of a tiger, which will likely be the time when his second martial soul awakens.
"no."
The two refused without hesitation.
"What if I absolutely have to go out?"
Qin Wu frowned.
The two did not answer, but their arrogant attitude said it all.
"Then there's nothing we can do."
Qin Wu shook his head, showing no intention of seeking their consent, and strode out.
Seeing Qin Wu force his way in, one of the guards immediately became angry and reached out to stop him.
But the next moment, Qin Wu grabbed the arm that was being offered to him.
As he pulled, he suddenly slammed his elbow down.
"what……"
The guard cried out in pain, cold sweat pouring down his forehead, but he couldn't stand up.
The other guard was furious. This scapegoat who wouldn't live much longer dared to fight them!
"You're asking for it!"
He roared angrily.
As he spoke, he threw a punch at Qin Wu.
This punch is powerful and heavy; if it lands, the victim will be injured.
Qin Wu's expression turned slightly cold. Since the other party had gone to such lengths, then he shouldn't be blamed.
In that instant, Qin Wu's aura suddenly changed.
An invisible phantom of a tiger appeared behind Qin Wu.
Tiger Spirit, appear!
Even though the two guards couldn't see the tiger, they were still filled with fear.
Because they suddenly felt as if a real tiger was standing in front of them.
A cold glint flashed in Qin Wu's eyes.
Without dodging or avoiding, he threw the same punch.
"Click..."
The sound of bones breaking rang out.
"ah!!"
A scream even more piercing than before rang out.
How is that possible!
The other person looked utterly terrified.
Qin Wu is clearly a good-for-nothing who is utterly useless except for his physical appearance.
Even if he has been practicing martial arts for the past month, how could he suddenly become so terrifying?
He had no time to think it over.
Qin Wu had already kicked him in the knee.
The fist takes the shape of a tiger; this is the Tiger Scissors!
Another sound of bone cracking.
At this point, both guards had broken bones, and they looked at Qin Wu as if he were a demon.
"Are you still going to stop me?"
Qin Wu looked at the two men whose foreheads were covered in cold sweat and spoke calmly.
The two shook their heads frantically, their faces filled with fear.
However, the resentment deep in his eyes could not be concealed at all.
Qin Wu didn't care.
The wedding is scheduled for a month from now.
Before this, I should be absolutely safe.
They're just two guards. Since the Dragon Tiger Gang is using him, they won't do anything to him because of these two guards.
As for the two seeking revenge in private, he was naturally not afraid. At worst, they could just kill each other.
Seeing that the two had no further objections, Qin Wu nodded in satisfaction and then left the Qin residence.
One person felt the excruciating pain in his body, his expression grim, and he gasped for breath.
He grinned and said:
"They're gone, what are we going to do?"
The other guard snorted coldly and said venomously:
"Anyway, he's just a scapegoat. Since he dares to go out, he's doomed. At worst, we'll just get punished."
They were supposed to warn them, it was their duty, but that good-for-nothing dared to lay a hand on them and even injure them.
Anyway, they were already injured while trying to stop that good-for-nothing, so even the young lady couldn't be too harsh on them.
That kid won't come back to life!
