Chapter 273: The Reward Silver Li Xuemei said, “You know how our village folks are. If no one takes the lead, who dares to touch anything from the Northern Rong? Go explain it to them clearly. If it happens again, they’ll know what’s coming.” “As for why no one’s taking the corpses to claim the reward, I have an idea.” Yan Lao’er and Yan Yu both turned to look at her. “Our family’s donkey was brought back. Just the cheapest one, but Village Chief Luo personally delivered…- 619.3 K • Ongoing
- Chapter 274: Another Kind of Merit Yan Huaiwen could tell his younger brother wasn’t speaking from the heart. Tian You had always valued money, and this time, though it was a narrow victory, he had taken it through proper means. How could he not feel resentful? “For now, let’s handle this matter according to the precedent set in Crouching Tiger. I’ll look into the details myself, then we’ll decide what to do.” Guanzhou was a poor region. Officials here, whether civil or military,…

- Chapter 267: White Hair, Youthful Face “We’ve seen enough. Let’s put it back,” said Yan Lao’er. He did love silver, but if it wasn’t his, he didn’t care to take it. Yan Yu didn’t respond. She was still rummaging through the various chests. Before long, she pulled out a few silver ingots. “Dad, look at these. They’re all official silver, but the casting molds are clearly different. Look at the stamps. These two were minted in the Capital City, this one’s from Linhai,…

- Chapter 268: Seeking Divine Water If the person was fake, then the so-called Divine Water couldn’t be real either. Besides, how could there possibly be a Divine Water that cures all ailments in this world? “It’s all just a scam,” Yan Lao’er muttered under his breath. “Those people making a fuss? All planted shills.” Yan Yu chimed in, “Exactly. A paralyzed leg suddenly standing up again? Who’d believe such nonsense…” “It’s all an act, just to swindle people out of…

- Chapter 269: Searching for Family They didn’t stop when passing through Changping. Yan Lao'er and Yan Yu took turns poling the raft, which sped swiftly down the river. Before the people at the dock could even make out what was covered under the oilcloth on the raft, it had already vanished from sight. Traveling upstream was certainly more taxing than going with the current. No matter how strong Yan Yu was, he couldn’t match the relentless rush of the river day and night. Thankfully, they…

- Chapter 270: Fellow Villagers Reunited The man from that household had caught the plague while out searching for food. When he realized something was wrong, he pushed his wife and children away, keeping them at a distance. He wasn’t the only one. Several other families had also had someone taken away. Some had been taken recently, others much earlier. The uncertainty gnawed at Yan Yu. “Dad, the Divine Water…” Yan Yu reminded softly. Yan Lao’er quickly explained the so-called…

- Chapter 262: Gufeng’s Prescription Revision Gufeng City was in a state of utter chaos. At first, no one paid much attention to the man who claimed he was simply delivering a family letter to Doctor An of Huimin Hall. But the moment Doctor An returned, he went straight to the Government Office and brought up the matter of Crouching Tiger City. He even wanted to revise the prescription. Despite the general restrictions, information between major cities wasn’t entirely cut off. The…

- Chapter 264: Wind in the Face, Headache Incoming Yan Lao’er had to maneuver several times before he finally managed to wedge his raft into the narrow gap between two boats. A man on the shore gestured for him to toss over the reins. Once the man expertly tied them to a mooring post, he turned to inspect the raft in front of him with a discerning eye. “Not bad, brother. You’ve used solid materials. Two layers of rolling logs on a single raft, and these side panels too… I gotta say,…
