Volume 1: Reincarnation Cycle First...

  "Master, I've already stitched up your ear. It'll be ready to remove the stitches in four or five days. After that, you can apply some scar-removing balm regularly and the scar should fade away within half a year." The slender and agile old doctor said while packing his medical kit: "However, your injury is quite severe. I used fire needle to stimulate your vitality, but the possibility of recovery is really low..."

  "Quack... get out!" Wang Duo Cai bellowed, flipping over the table and revealing his disheveled lower body.

  The old doctor didn't think much of it, just slightly nodding his head: "Young master, beware of great anger. If you can find a famous doctor who specializes in the five elements and acupuncture as soon as possible, there's still a 60-70% chance of recovery. The sooner the better!"

  Wang Duocai's eyes widened slightly, a glimmer of hope flashing in his eyes, but he soon weakly waved his hand and let the old doctor leave. A renowned physician skilled in the five elements of acupuncture should be able to find it, but that was only a 60-70% possibility, how could one not feel despair?

  Next to him, Wang Jinbao helped to lift the table, and only then did he look at Wang Duo with some weakness, saying in a soft voice: "Duo, why don't we hurry back? After all, things have been settled here."

  "Go back? How can I go back?" Wang Duo pointed to his swollen lower body: "Can I ride a horse in this state? Besides, that useless thing's hands are all crippled, how can he walk for the time being?"

  "Ah, we can..." Wang Jinbao was about to make a good suggestion when the servant's reminder came from outside: "Young Master, someone from the government office has arrived and wants to see you."

  Wang Duocai slowly pulled up his pants, looking displeased: "Let him come in and talk."

  The person who came was the old steward, Old Bu. This expressionless old man was the one who arranged for Wang Duocai and others to stay in the inn, but did not understand the current situation, and even did not arrange for women.

  "The old master told me to return these nine hundred knives." Lao Bu's expression was wooden, he handed over the money ticket, and with a slight bow of his head, he saw the mess on the ground and naturally understood a bit.

  Looking at these 900 knives, Wang Duocai couldn't help but think of the arrogant figure of Bei Gong To and said in a low voice: "What does this mean?"

  Lao Bu replied: "Don't mention it. At first, Sixth Master said the reward was one hundred knives. No pay without work, so he only took one hundred knives."

  "What the hell, are you calling me an idiot? A slave is a slave, not even wanting money..." Wang Duocai curled his lip in disdain as he took the banknote: "Is there anything else?"

  "Let the old master rest well, if there's anything you need, just tell me and I'll take care of it thoroughly."

  "Are you all right?" Wang Duo Cai let out a cold snort: "If I were all right, would I have ended up like this?"

  Lao Bu's expression remained as calm as an ancient well, without a ripple: "If there are no further instructions, then this old slave will take his leave and report back."

  "Get out!" Wang Duo Cai angrily rebuked with a flick of his hand.

  Lao Bu turned around, and it was only then that a hint of cold smile floated up at the corner of his eyes. After leaving the door, Lao Bu did something that made Wang Duo Cai furious that night - he arranged for four late-arriving prostitutes to be sent over.

  Some people are not good-tempered, but even when they lose their temper, you don't know, and even if you do, you can't afford to lose your temper back at them. That's what it means to be a superior person.

  "Multi-talented, I see..." Wang Jinbao was about to continue the topic he had started earlier, but was stopped by Wang Duo Cai who raised his hand: "Jinbao, you go back too, I want to rest for a while."

  "Alright, you get some rest then. I'll be next door, just knock on the wall if you need anything."

  When Lao Bu returned to the gate of the government office, Lu Bujian was also passing by from the town center. The two met and nodded slightly with a faint smile.

  "I heard about your performance today, the old master even praised you for being very manly and having a sense of responsibility! I think so too, young people should have some iron-blooded spirit!" Old Bu smiled with his eyes narrowed, he was also a slave, and he had a good impression of Lu Buqi, who was also from a slave background.

  Lu Buqi respected the elderly man who didn't often interact with him, but always made him feel at ease. He nodded slightly: "Thank you, Da Guan Shi, for your praise, and thank you, old steward. I think that if it were you in your younger years, you would have done even better than me."

  "I... am no match for you!" Old Bu slightly nodded his head: "However, this matter is probably not going to be easily settled... unless... something unexpected happens to the outsider..."

  He smiled wryly and Old Bu's eyebrows slightly rose: "In our Guazhen Town, accidents will definitely not happen, and the old master won't allow it... Nangong, do you have anything to say to the old master?"

  Lu Buji's heart slightly chilled, such an obvious hint, he couldn't understand it, then he would have lived in vain for two lifetimes. After thinking carefully, his eyes suddenly lit up: "If possible, let the old steward remind the big manager on my behalf, saying that the materials will arrive at Yangze earlier, which will make people more at ease."

  Lao Bu smiled and turned into the government office, leaving behind a sentence: "I will persuade Lao Ye to set off immediately."

  He pinched the tip of his nose, Lu Buqi's mouth slightly pursed, and turned to walk towards the blacksmith shop in big strides. He wasn't worried that Old Bu and Da Guan Shi had seen some of his ruthless thoughts, from their words, it was clear they were pleased with the outcome.

  The next day, Wang Duo's expression became increasingly gloomy. Thinking of the four prostitutes who had come the previous day, his lower body ached with pain. That damned old thing, neither arranging for someone to come early nor late, but instead arranging for them to come at the time when he was injured, wasn't it intentional to make things difficult for him?

  Wang Jinbao and his two attendants also looked gloomy, yesterday when they saw those prostitutes, Wang Jinbao's eyes turned green with envy. After all, he was provoked to anger in the daytime, but could only forcibly suppress it, and even seemed to have been frightened, making him feel unwell. And those prostitutes, for Wang Jinbao, were undoubtedly a timely rain after a long drought.

  But Wang Duo's anger was so great that he drove all four prostitutes out, leaving them with nothing but the five-fingered girl, which was undoubtedly a super frustrating thing. Even the two injured followers secretly complained countless times in their hearts, especially the follower who was seriously injured on his left arm, and it is worth noting that injured men are most in need of this physical and spiritual comfort.

  Four people stood together, face to face, a strong sense of unfulfilled desire and resentment that could be felt by everyone within ten feet. If there was a fortune teller around at this time, he would surely comment: "The impression on their foreheads is dark, recently there must be a disaster with bloodshed!"

  "Duō cái, I think we should set off early, your injury will definitely be better treated in Yangze than here!" Wang Jinbao really didn't want to stay in this place anymore, it wasn't his own turf, and he felt uncomfortable all over.

  Wang Duo Cai angrily said: "I've told you all that I can't ride a horse, don't you understand human language?"

  Wang Jinbao slightly curled his lip: "We can take the Shenying aircraft, anyway, the supplies in Guozhen Town have to be transported to Yangze!"

  Wang Duo Cai suddenly came to his senses, and his expression relaxed a lot: "Jin Bao, you're right, let's go... find Wang Ying Fu!"

  However, when the four arrived at the Da Guan Shi Fu, Old Bu expressionlessly told them something: that Wang Yingfu, who had been working hard for the Wang family business, had sent someone to deliver goods to Yang Ze overnight and was probably already hundreds of kilometers away.

  Wang Duo nearly vomited blood on the spot, furiously scolding Wang Jinbao for not reminding him yesterday. This finally made Wang Jinbao explode too, retorting: "I wanted to say it several times yesterday, but was interrupted by you every time! Don't think only you have a temper, if I didn't consider our familial relationship, I wouldn't serve you!"

  At this moment, Wang Duo suddenly realized that Wang Jinbao was not his servant or slave, but a person whose status was no lower than his.

  Lao Bu had a keen eye and consoled them with a few words, and even arranged a horse-drawn carriage for them with great enthusiasm. This undoubtedly made Wang Duo Cai feel grateful and secretly scolded himself for yelling at Lao Bu last night.

  "That old butler is still okay, it's just that he does things a bit too late!" This became Wang Duocai's evaluation of Old Bu.

  But when the carriage drove out of the east gate under the urging of Wang Duocai's followers, Old Bu's face was a triumphant and sinister smile.
