Chapter 557
Time passed day by day, and Jiang Hao's body began to gradually recover.
When Old Man Zhang handed the Shangdian back to him, Jiang Hao slowly checked out the various secrets in the Shangdian during this time.
On the one hand, he was strengthening his body through cultivation and speeding up his body's recovery. On the other hand, he was also trying to fuse the Shang Dian.
However, after some time, he realised that he had already fused the Shang Dian when he fell off the cliff.
The various texts in the Shangdian had already been engraved in his mind, and this thing in front of him had become a dispensable thing.
Although Old Zhang was still going about his life, he was still watching over it. But he was also watching Jiang Hao in silence.
Although he said he did not care about Jiang Hao's past and would not delve into Jiang Hao's future. But this man was, after all, the one he had saved.
Old Zhang Tou was not exempt from this, so naturally he paid extra attention to Jiang Hao's movements.
After two months had passed, Jiang Hao's body gradually recovered and Old Zhang Tu felt that the time had almost come.
So this day at noon, Old Zhang Tau looked at Jiang Hao who was eating and said with a light cough, "Jiang Hao, I see that your body has almost recovered, right?"
Jiang Hao let out a slight sigh in his heart, had this day come after all.
The two months or so he had lived here were the most relaxing time in Jiang Hao's life up to now, he didn't need to care about anything, he didn't need to worry about anything.
Just the only thing that he could not forget was those hatreds. He had to put an end to them after all.
Thinking of this, Jiang Hao put down his dishes, looked at Old Man Zhang in a disciplined manner and nodded slightly and said, "Well, my body is almost well enough."
Old man Zhang looked at Jiang Hao's mental outlook which had changed greatly from when he first met him, when he first met Jiang Hao he looked as if he was a floating blade of grass that could be swept away at any moment.
Now Jiang Hao looks like an ancient pine, calm, strong and energetic.
Looking at Jiang Hao, Old Zhang Tau let out a long sigh in his heart and then said, "I understand that you must have a lot of responsibilities on your shoulders, so I won't keep you any longer."
Jiang Hao nodded faintly. Ying Ying's little loli sat on the edge with a pair of watery eyes that had long since turned red.
Tears barley fell into the bowl, but they were eaten by Ying Ying and the rice.
Grandpa reached out and stroked Ying Ying's head and smiled, after all, the little loli was still too young to bear such a separation.
"Ying Ying, people are not grass, you can't let go of brother Jiang Hao I know, but brother Jiang Hao can still come and play with Ying Ying in the future."
After hearing this, Ying Ying looked up at her grandfather with teary eyes, then turned her head to Jiang Hao and asked seriously, "Brother Jiang Hao. You will really come to see Yingying, right?"
Looking at Yingying's serious look, Jiang Hao's heart also followed a twitch of pain.
"Of course. Brother Jiang Hao will definitely come to see Yingying!"
After saying this, Jiang Hao reached out and gently wiped the teardrops on Yingying's face and continued to smile, "Yingying is so cute, brother Jiang Hao can't let you go."
After hearing this, little Ying Ying jumped into Jiang Hao's arms and cried out loudly, "Brother, don't lie to me, grandpa said that mum and dad would come to see me, but Ying Ying is 14 years old. They still haven't come."
Hearing these words, the old man's face also looked slightly gloomy.
Jiang Hao looked at the old man's face and understood something in his heart, and looked at Yingying with even more heartache in his eyes.
"Ying Ying is a good girl, brother Jiang Hao would never lie to anyone. When brother Jiang Hao comes over next time, he will bring Yingying delicious food, so that your little friends will envy you to death!"
Jiang Hao was able to coax Yingying into a good mood with all his efforts.
Children are like that, sometimes they just say the wind is rain, and tears just come.
When she was tired of crying, she fell asleep in Jiang Hao's arms, and Jiang Hao looked at her and gently stroked a strand of messy hair behind her head.
Old man Zhang looked at Jiang Hao and Yingying, then took out a dry cigarette and lit it for himself and smoked it in silence.
Just as the three of them were enjoying the quiet before the separation. There was a sudden clamour from outside the courtyard.
"Old man Zhang, the money owed to the grandfather, do you think it is time to settle it today!"
The words had just fallen. A strong man with a bald head and tattoos walked in with three or four people, and Ying Ying was instantly startled awake by the commotion made by the crowd.
"Xu Qiang. I will definitely pay back the money I owe you. It is only right that the father pays the son. It is also the same for the son to repay the father's debt, and I have not disowned it."
After the bald and burly man Xu Qiang smiled sorrowfully, he looked up and took a glance at the cold-faced Jiang Hao.
Then he opened his mouth and laughed, "You understand the reasoning, but where is my money?"
Old man Zhang looked at Xu Qiang and sighed helplessly and said, "I've already paid back the money I owe you, and I've also paid the interest as I should, what more do you want?"
Xu Qiang snorted coldly before pulling out a chair and sitting down, taking a moment to survey the food on the table, he couldn't help but snicker and said, "You eat like a pig's food."
He then held out his finger and the little brother behind him hastily took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it for him.
"The principal, I admit that you have paid it back, but this interest you have is the interest on the street, not according to the bank's interest."
Old man Zhang was very angry when he heard this, but there was nothing he could do in the face of a scoundrel like Xu Qiang.
"The interest rate on the street is a donkey's game, are you trying to break my family?"
Old Zhang coughed twice and looked at Xu Qiang with a sad expression and said, "Xu Qiang, I think I have treated you well, but you still refuse to let me go!"
After hearing this, Xu Qiang laughed loudly, and then looked at Yingying who was shrinking in Jiang Hao's arms with his lustful eyes and said, "There is not no room for negotiation, as long as you are willing to give me this little girl Yingying, hehehehe."
Jiang Hao couldn't listen to this anymore and slapped his hand on the table, "How dare you!"
He hated people who were more handsome than himself, and Jiang Hao was so handsome that he didn't even want to look at him.
Seeing that Jiang Hao had taken the initiative to jump out, Xu Qiang simply stood up and pointed at Jiang Hao and said angrily, "What are you, you little scum, daring to shout at your master Xu! Give me a fight!"
The youngsters behind Xu Qiang looked at each other and took out their weapons from their bodies and swung them at Jiang Hao.
Little Lori Ying Ying and old man Zhang, who had been a good friend all their lives, had never seen such a battle before and were immediately frightened, not knowing what to do.
Jiang Hao's eyes looked contemptuously at the people rushing up, and with a mere dodge he dodged them and rushed out.
Then he looked at Xu Qiang and the others inside the house and said in a cold voice: "The house is too small, so I'm afraid I won't be able to beat you bastards, if you have the ability, let's come out and play slowly!"
Chapter 558
Jiang Hao's action just now really caught the eyes of the crowd, but they didn't put Jiang Hao in their sights. Xu Qiang grinned and said, "Damn, you think you're pretty good at hiding, don't you? Looking for death!"
Unfortunately for Xu Qiang, he was a hooligan. To him, Jiang Hao was provoking him!
Old man Zhang stood by the side and looked at Xu Qiang and then at Jiang Hao, and hurriedly said, "Xu Qiang, if there's anything to say, say it properly. Don't make things difficult for Ying Ying and this young man!"
Xu Qiang laughed coldly at these words. He turned his head and glared at old man Zhang before laughing, "You think you can get away with this old man? Wait, I'll clean you up after I've cleaned up!"
After saying this Xu Qiang walked out of the room with a few of his own men and watched as Jiang Hao craned his neck, making a crackling sound.
He, Xu Qiang, had this ability to hold down so many villages around, so naturally he had his reasons, not just anyone dared to come and provoke him.
If Jiang Hao was not cleaned up today, word of this matter would undoubtedly be a challenge to his authority.
Thinking of this Xu Qiang looked at Jiang Hao sorrowfully and gave him a wink, and several of the surrounding minions instantly understood, and the three slowly dispersed to surround Jiang Hao in a group.
"You brat. If there's a way to heaven, you don't want to go, but there's no way to hell, you have to interfere in something that has nothing to do with you."
Xu Qiang's hand moved slightly, and several of his men rushed up.
What he thought was just a matter of three punches and two kicks that would put Jiang Hao down, ended not quite as he had imagined.
Jiang Hao stood still, but all the punches coming from around him inexplicably struck his companions.
Some of them tried to bring Jiang Hao down with a leg sweep, but to their surprise, Jiang Hao dodged the move with a slight leap.
These men were all people with some real skills, and they could always get anything done when they went out with them.
However, they did not expect to behave so badly in front of Jiang Hao. Xu Qiang looked at his four men who were bruised and swollen, and could not bear it any longer.
He gritted his teeth and pulled out the dagger at his waist and slowly walked up to Jiang Hao, trying to inflict a heavy blow!
As Old Man Zhang watched Xu Qiang take out his dagger, he hurriedly spoke to Jiang Hao and warned, "Jiang Hao be careful!"
Jiang Hao, however, only snorted at such a thing, these people in front of him were not even warmed up in his own eyes.
These four men of Xu Qiang's were a bit interesting to say the least, they seemed to use the same style of kung fu, as long as they understood the moves of one of them.
The rest of them even if they tried harder. Jiang Hao could easily avoid them all.
Perhaps because of Shangdian, Jiang Hao felt that his body was undergoing amazing changes. Many things that he couldn't do before were now just a matter of raising his hand for him.
No matter how fast the opponent moved, he could react in the most appropriate way with a glimpse of his afterimage.
If it wasn't for the slow adaptation to this, with Jiang Hao's strength, how could he have played with such a few miscellaneous fish until now.
Xu Qiang could see that this Jiang Hao in front of him was different from ordinary people. But so what.
On this 30-mile bay, he, Xu Qiang, was the boss!
With this in mind, Xu Qiang rushed forward with his dagger in hand and stabbed Jiang Hao!
Little Loli Ying Ying exclaimed in shock as she watched Xu Qiang's dagger. But she didn't realise that Jiang Hao had already been alerted to Xu Qiang by Old Man Zhang.
After noticing Xu Qiang's stabbing out, Jiang Hao stretched out two fingers to clench the blade tightly and looked at Xu Qiang with a smile.
Not only was Xu Qiang startled by this scene, but the four men he had brought along were also taken aback by Jiang Hao's skill!
Old man Zhang looked at Jiang Hao in amazement and didn't know what to say, but little Lori Ying exclaimed, "Wow, taking a white blade with your empty hand! Brother Jiang is so good!"
Jiang Hao looked at Ying Ying and laughed lightly, then he lifted his leg and kicked Xu Qiang and the others out of the room, the crowd didn't even see how Jiang Hao had done it!
Xu Qiang lay on the ground and coughed violently, his mouth suddenly spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood. His eyes looked at Jiang Hao with hatred.
"I'll teach you all a lesson today, come at me with any moves you have. I'll take it."
In his flat tone, Jiang Hao's expression was also very flat. However, one could always feel a sense of arrogance from him.
The four men hurriedly helped Xu Qiang up from the ground, and then looked at Jiang Hao with some fear and trepidation not daring to move easily.
They did have some body-pressing skills on them. But in front of Jiang Hao, let alone exert it.
If Jiang Hao got serious, they were afraid they wouldn't be able to go even three rounds!
Xu Qiang glared at Jiang Hao with a fierce face, his face full of cross flesh plus the blood at the corner of his mouth made him look fierce beyond compare.
"Fine, you can do it, I am Master Xu today!"
Just after saying this, Xu Qiang snapped and pushed his men who were holding him away before looking at Jiang Hao and continuing to speak, "If you have the guts, you can wait here, our matter will have to come to an end after all!"
Jiang Hao looked at Xu Qiang with contempt, if someone had dared to talk to him like that in the past, I'm afraid it would have taken him less than five hours to kneel in front of him.
But at the moment he didn't have such strength, and thinking about what he was carrying and his personal feelings wouldn't be solved in a day or two.
Jiang Hao pondered for a moment before giving Xu Qiang an evil smile and spoke, "Fine, since you have to play with me, then I'll wait for you here, don't you dare not come."
After saying this, Jiang Hao walked over to Old Man Zhang and Ying Ying's side, holding Old Man Zhang with one hand and leading Ying Ying with the other to return to the room.
At the same time, he turned his back on Xu Qiang and said flatly, "Get lost before I change my mind now, or else I'll make sure you can't walk out of this door!"
Although Xu Qiang was tough on the surface, he had a slight sense of fear of Jiang Hao in his heart.
At this moment, hearing these words, he hurriedly ran out with his men, not even daring to look back.
Ying Ying was lying on the window sill watching Xu Qiang and his men flee, and she couldn't help but giggle, "Brother Jiang, they're gone! Yeah, the bad guys are gone!"
After saying this, Ying Ying fell into Jiang Hao's arms again, then hugged his neck and said with a smile, "Brother Jiang, you're so good!"
Jiang Hao stroked Yingying's head with a smile and said, "What's so great about brother Jiang, our Yingying is the one who is great, she took care of brother Jiang for so long."
After hearing this, Ying Ying blushed slightly and looked at Jiang Hao with a slightly misty look in her eyes and said, "Brother Jiang, if someone bullies me and grandpa in the future, will you stand up like this too?"
Jiang Hao faintly froze after hearing this, and couldn't help but look at Ying Ying with a little more pity in his eyes.
The little girl had really looked bad before.
