Chapter Eleven: Looking for Trouble
The explosive rock music was deafening, and the slightly hoarse voice of the long-tongued woman wailed along with it. If she sang well, others might have tolerated it, but that ghostly howling sound made people feel like their eardrums were throbbing in pain, and their stomachs were churning with nausea.
Wang Ke really wants to say: Singing is not your fault, but singing so loudly and disturbingly, affecting other people's lives, that's not right.
"What's going on? Spit it out if you have something to say, and fart quickly if you need to, I still want to dance!" The middle-aged woman pulled open the door with force, twisting her slightly plump waist, looking at Wang Ke with a face full of impatience.
Wang Ke's expression was indifferent as he looked at the middle-aged woman and said, "Can you guys turn down the volume a bit? The loud music is affecting our lives."
"Get out! I'm in my own home, I'll do what I want. If you don't like it here, then get out!" The middle-aged woman shouted with a roll of her eyes.
Wang Ke was secretly annoyed, but still sincerely said: "It's all said that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. We all live under the same roof, I hope you can also consider the feelings of the surrounding neighbors? You turn up the music so loudly, how can we rest?"
A middle-aged woman's face surged with anger, pointing at Wang Ke's nose and scolding: "I just like to turn the music up to the maximum, what's it to you? You're a useless dog, did you eat the wrong medicine today? It's true that whatever kind of son you have, you'll have that kind of useless parents. I think your parents are just as useless as you, no talent, no integrity, and will end up begging for food on the streets outside. Get out, get out, get out! If you dare to make another sound, I'll hit you."
Faced with the middle-aged woman's abuse, Wang Ke's expression turned cold.
If the other party is just scolding him a couple of sentences, he would take it as a crazy bark and let it go. But this damn arrogant woman actually dared to insult her own parents, which is simply asking for trouble.
He had never hit a woman before, but at this moment, he took a step forward and slapped the middle-aged woman's face with a loud slap.
"Bang..."
A loud slapping sound was heard as the middle-aged woman was slapped to the ground by Wang Ke.
"I'm not hitting a woman, I'm hitting a worthless person! If you dare to insult my parents again, I'll beat you to death!" Wang Ke shouted.
The middle-aged woman covered her beaten cheek, looking at Wang Ke in disbelief. She never thought that Wang Ke, who usually looked honest and unremarkable, would dare to hit her?
"You little bastard, you dare hit me? I'll fight you..."
Quickly regaining her composure from the shock, the middle-aged woman got up from the ground in a rage, as if she had lost her mind. With a sharp and piercing screech, she charged towards Wang Ke, determined to beat him to death. She had never suffered such a great loss before, so she wanted to kill this dog.
Wang Ke looked at the shrew in front of him, his facial expression becoming even colder.
"Bang..."
Another crisp slap, and the middle-aged woman was dragged to the ground.
"What's going on?" A middle-aged man with tattoos, bare-chested and taking big strides, walked out. When he saw the scene outside the door, he suddenly became furious, picked up a bench at the door and smashed it towards Wang Ke.
"Get out!"
Wang Ke let out a low shout, the Dragon Elephant Technique broke through to the second heavy sky, his combat strength increased several times compared to before. To say nothing of this middle-aged big man, even if five or six more such robust and sturdy men came, he still had the confidence to knock them down.
The true energy flows through the meridians in the body, and a sense of power emerges. King Ke's eyes are quick and his hands are swift, kicking the flying bench with one foot, and suddenly rushing to the front of the middle-aged man, punching him heavily on the face.
Roughly beaten, this was a one-sided abuse of the enemy, in just over ten seconds, that sturdy and robust middle-aged man was beaten by Wang Ke to be extremely miserable.
He took two steps back, and Wang Ke looked at him coldly as he struggled to get up, but his battered body struggled for a while without getting up. The middle-aged woman's face was red and swollen with fear, staring blankly at her husband being beaten wildly, her arrogant and domineering demeanor vanished without a trace, as if she had seen a ghost, her body trembling slightly.
"Today is a lesson for you two, I warn you both, from now on, if you dare to be arrogant and reckless, if you dare to disturb everyone and affect their lives, I will beat you up every time I see you. Did you hear that?" Wang Ke said in a cold tone, staring at the husband and wife who were filled with fear.
The two quickly nodded, although they were full of resentment and hatred, but this young man who was previously very low-key actually had such a fierce skill, which made them dare not disobey his meaning, at least for now they did not dare.
They could all feel that if they didn't quickly agree, Wang Ke would take action again and beat the couple severely.
A good man doesn't take advantage of the present, leaving green hills intact is not afraid of having no firewood to burn. Although a middle-aged man has already made up his mind to let Wang Ke pay a bloody price for today's actions, it's not now.
"We'll listen to you, we'll all listen to you! We won't dare again!" The middle-aged woman's body trembled as she came to the side of the middle-aged man, supporting her husband's body and speaking with a quivering heart.
Wang Ke cast a disgusted glance at the immoral couple and turned back to his own room.
The wicked will be punished by the wicked.
These two are not good people, but today I'll be a bad person too. As long as everyone can live better in the future, it's worth it.
The middle-aged couple, who had been beaten, looked at Wang Ke's back and a sinister and resentful color floated in their eyes. Supporting each other, they returned to the room, and when the door was closed and locked from the inside by the middle-aged woman, she collapsed onto the bed and burst into tears.
"Stop crying, tomorrow, I'll make that damn bastard apologize to us and pay a painful price for messing with us." The middle-aged man clenched his fists, the veins on his arms bulging out, clearly furious to the extreme.
Warm sunshine shines all over the land, cool breeze gently blows.
Wang Ke, who has been dreaming of sleeping in until he wakes up naturally and counting money until his hands cramp, finally achieved his first wish today.
The sun was already high in the sky, and he finally got out of bed, looked at the time, and found that it was already 9:30.
After washing up, Wang Ke sat neatly on the edge of the bed and reached out to take the tripod incense burner from the bedside cabinet, which he had bought for 500 yuan from the landlord yesterday.
Last night before going to sleep, he had practiced the "Dragon Elephant" skill for two hours. Now, the true energy in his body's meridians was full and flowing, his spirit was refreshed, and his whole body felt comfortable.
Let's try using Insight to examine it. Although this incense burner looks like a genuine antique, I don't know if it's a magical artifact or not.
Wang Ke slowly ran his true energy to his eyes, the needle-like pain lasted only for a second before being replaced by that cool and comfortable feeling. His gaze, without even blinking once, landed on the incense burner.
A white gas was flowing on the incense burner, just like the situation when he found the magic tool yesterday. Wang Ke looked at the flowing white gas and started to struggle, as if wanting to break through some constraints and rush into his own eyes.
Quickly cutting off the flow of true energy into his eyes, after stopping the use of his heterochromatic eyes, Wang Ke excitedly held the tripod incense burner, his heart bursting with joy.
Another legal instrument!
I unexpectedly picked up another magical artifact!
Is there really so many laws in this world?
From yesterday till now, I've successfully picked up three pieces of equipment, this luck is also too exaggerated, right?
In the eyes of ordinary people, a magic weapon is a treasure that can make one rich overnight. Until yesterday, he had been dreaming of owning one to become wealthy. But in just over 20 hours, he has picked up three magic weapons, which is unbelievable.
A horse will not gain weight without extra fodder at night; a man will not become rich without unexpected wealth.
Wang Ke was well aware that if he succeeded in picking up the leftovers, it would mean a windfall.
"Being able to pick up the leak three times was entirely due to the heterochromatic eyes, if not for the heterochromatic eyes, being able to coincidentally obtain a piece of artifact would probably be a great joy worthy of thanking heaven and earth!" Wang Ke let out a faint sigh in his heart.
The emergence of the heterochromatic eye is absolutely a major turning point in his life. With this heaven-defying money-making cheating device, he seems to have already seen a golden mountain rushing into his pockets.
At this moment, he suddenly fell silent, his heart no longer joyful, no longer excited, but instead had a taste of gain and loss.
If from now on, the ability of his heterochromatic eyes suddenly disappeared, that would be more painful for him than killing him.
"No way, this ability eye appeared suddenly, who knows if it will disappear suddenly in the future? I must make the most of having this ability eye, pick up as many artifacts as possible, and get rich first. Then use the effect of the ability eye to crazily absorb knowledge about antiques and collectibles. Even if the ability eye loses its effect in the future, I can still rely on my real talent and learning to gain enormous wealth."
Wang Ke's mind was calm and thinking, all kinds of thoughts kept turning in his heart.
After a while, he put the tripod incense burner into his travel bag and took it out to eat breakfast. At over 10 o'clock, he hastily walked into the gate of Shang Bao Xuan.
"Mr. Wang... Mr. Wang, you're here again? Manager Liu is receiving clients in the VIP room on the second floor, I'll take you to another VIP room to wait?" The attendant's face first showed a hint of joy, then turned solemn and respectful as he looked at Wang Ke and spoke.
Wang Ke looked at the appearance of this fellow, and in his heart, it was as clear as a mirror. He was probably severely scolded by Liu Gang yesterday when he returned from the bank!
He nodded silently and Wang Ke smiled: "Thanks."
"No trouble, not at all. Yesterday was my fault, I spread your business out, even if you beat me to death, I won't do that kind of wrong thing again, hope Mr. Wang can forgive me." The man said with a tone of apology.
"It's okay!"
Wang Ke smiled faintly and followed his companion up to the second floor into one of the VIP rooms.
The eyes of the masses are bright, let alone those with a discerning mind.
Within twenty minutes of Wang Ke entering Shang Bao Xuan, everyone on the entire antique street had received the news and knew that Wang Ke had entered Shang Bao Xuan with a travel bag.
"It's really getting out of hand! Is that Master Wang going to get his hands on another treasure? Otherwise, why would he be heading to Shang Bao Xuan again?"
"It's too strange. When did the treasure become so common? I've been doing business on this antique street for nearly ten years, and I've only seen two or three pieces of treasure, which were all treasures found by others. How could that master Wang take another treasure to Shang Bao Xuan again? Is there still justice in this world?"
"Our vast and powerful country is indeed a land of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. This small place also has its own hidden masters. I heard that a young man named Wang Ke, who used to be a member of the Treasure Gathering Hall, is one of them! Alas, I have eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai, having encountered great men multiple times yet passing them by without realizing it."
"I heard that Tie Gongji, Zhou Bo Pi from the Treasure Pavilion, fired Gao Ren Wang Ke yesterday. Haha, that foolish guy, he had a treasure trove in his hands and didn't even recognize the true face of Lushan? Yesterday, it seemed like he was standing at the gate of the Treasure Pavilion, slapping himself two big ear slaps? Regret will be the death of him..."
"If that's the case, then that expert named Wang Ke who went to sell artifacts is truly remarkable. I even suspect that he might have discovered a treasure trove of artifacts. Otherwise, where did all these artifacts on this street come from?"
"Before, I thought I was quite impressive, but compared to Wang Gaohand, I'm just a dish! From now on, I have an idol, my idol is Wang Gaoxian, and if anyone dares to speak ill of my idol in the future, I'll knock out their front teeth..."
“……”
Everyone on the antique street is talking about it, and it can be said that Wang Ke's great name has reached an unprecedented height on this antique street.
