The battle dust settled in the City Lord’s Mansion. The soldiers who came to Find your next favorite novel on NovelHub today! Only a few participated in the battle, and most of them were still waiting outside the mansion, vaguely hearing the sounds of the fighting inside without fully understanding the situation. After the matter was settled, the soldiers who had gathered outside the mansion began to leave. Only a few were sent to the City Lord’s mansion to do some miscellaneous tasks like carrying bodies. Old Huang and the monk, along with other former subordinates of Qiao Mu, happened to be among them. “What? The City Lord’s son is dead? Killed by a murderer? Oh heavens—” Old Huang couldn’t help but exclaim, drawing the unfriendly gazes of the people around the City Lord’s mansion. “Heavens…heavens are jealous of talent indeed, to take away the City Lord’s young son!” Old Huang’s shoulders trembled slightly, his old face contorted with grief. Only when the onlookers saw this scene did their curious stares finally leave. Old Huang hesitated for a moment, then ran over and reached the corner of the wall. He lifted the white cloth from the face of each body and took a quick glance. Every time he counted a number, his voice trembled slightly, and as he got to the later ones, even his fingers shook a bit. Old Huang wasn’t very brave. Although he was somewhat of a veteran, the only skill he had learned was one he couldn’t show off – the Iron Crotch Skill. He always fought sneakily in battles, never directly facing his opponents. Due to his limited courage, after eagerly drinking the bowl of Hero Courage Soup yesterday, he worried all night and couldn’t fall asleep. Because he was timid, he remembered the faces of the servants who carried the coffin into the house yesterday very clearly. He planned to avoid them in the future to prevent them from bringing up that matter again. He put down the white cloth in his hand and stood still, feeling a bit confused. The worries that troubled him all day suddenly disappeared, everything was fine now. While feeling relieved, he also had an indescribable emotion in his heart. “Old Huang, you’re getting old, why are you suddenly acting crazy?” The monk next to him quickly walked over. This Old Huang opened the white cloth covering the face of the body in the corner of the wall… this behavior was indeed inappropriate, if it was seen by the officials of the town, he would probably get punished. However, Old Huang still remained stunned. “Monk, let me ask you, is that powerful gray-clothed old man who always follows Childe Guo also gone?” Old Huang suddenly asked. “…..I heard he died?” “Where is Childe Guo?” “He’s dead. We were just talking about it earlier. Did you forget so quickly?” Old Huang stayed silent for a long time before slowly saying, “Yesterday, when Childe Guo’s coffin was carried into the house, the seven house servants who were with him are all lying here now. Do you think he did a meticulous job?” “Is that so? You must have been worried for a long time, but now everything is fine.” The monk didn’t think too much about it at that moment. “Indeed, I heard from the boss before that people who smile often have good luck.” Old Huang smiled and revealed his unattractive big yellow teeth. “Monk, don’t you think I would look better as a beauty?” “….Dare you speak those words to yourself in front of a mirror?” Old Huang smiled silently. His luck was really good. What was great was that he coincidentally met two brothers, Qiao Mu and Qiao Lin… Suddenly, he remembered the promise that Qiao Mu made when they first met. They said that Qiao Mu will keep his word, but he had no money in his hands. In order to repay Old Huang for teaching him the Iron Crotch Skill, he promised to take care of him completely… Qiao Mu is a man of his word, and Qiao Lin may seem rough, but he is actually observant… Old Huang stood up and started working again with the monk beside him, continuing to help with the post-war chores in the lord’s mansion.
