Peerless Taoist

Now that she was knocked over, the steamed buns in the basket immediately fell to the ground. The woman had already suffered a serious injury. Dark red blood flowed down from the wound, dyeing the steamed buns red.    

A child ran out from the crowd. He rushed in front of his mother as if he had gone mad.    

This child was the orphan of the Ning Family that Lu Yu paid a visit to in the past, Ning Changsheng.    

"Mother." Ning Changsheng called out softly.    

The woman was still stiffly lying on the ground, not moving at all.    

Only at this time did Ning Changsheng notice that his mother's forehead was knocked on a rock, already having a cut open, blood flowing out.    

Ning Changsheng used his trembling hands to test his mother's breathing, his face suddenly becoming deathly pale, frozen on the spot.    

His mother died, right in front of him.    

Ning Changsheng's father, Ning Shou, as a spy of the Skynet, died in the battle with the Tang army.    

The first time Lu Yu came to the Heaven Rushing Pass was to visit the Ning Family. He gave the Ning Family a huge sum of money, enough for the mother and son to live peacefully in the Heaven Rushing Pass.    

But the change happened too fast.    

After Qi Jun entered the city, everything changed. The battle credit cards that the Ning family obtained previously became hot potato instead. The Ning family's home was forcibly expropriated, and even the remaining money in the family was plundered by Qi Jun.    

Helplessly, Ning Changsheng's mother used at least a bit of hidden money to rent a small house in the slums of the Tian Chong Pass. Every day, she made some cooked wheaten food and sold it, barely surviving.    

But even with such a bitter life, it still ended up like today.    

"Mother!" Ning Changsheng was stunned all of a sudden. The intense grief made him unable to calm down for a moment.    

"I crashed into a corpse!" The surrounding workers also stood up and surrounded him.    

There were still many workers resting on the nearby streets.    

The sun was high up in the sky, and the officials and nobles would find a place to rest for a while. Only they needed to be outside and withstand the scorching sun.    

"What are you doing? Get the hell out of here!"    

The coachman in charge of driving the carriage was extremely arrogant, and he shouted loudly.    

As soon as these words were spoken, it immediately caused the crowd to be furious.    

"The carriage of the Tang Dynasty is really impressive. You think you can simply bump into people?!"    

"Killing someone to pay with your life, you won't be able to leave today!"    

The surrounding migrant workers often saw Ning Changsheng's mother selling steamed buns here. They also knew that their family life was not easy.    

Now that they saw Ning Changsheng's mother being knocked to death, everyone was filled with righteous indignation. Naturally, they couldn't tolerate it.    

The driver swept a glance and sneered, "A bunch of lowly things, daring to stop our lord's carriage, get lost!"    

After he finished speaking, he raised his whip and made an explosive sound in the air.    

The coachman also had some strength. When the whip was swung, there was actually a fluctuation of magic power.    

"I'll kill you!"    

A young child's voice suddenly rang out.    

Ning Changsheng suddenly exploded. He nimbly jumped onto the carriage and fiercely strangled the driver's neck.    

He was only a young child and did not have much strength in his arms. However, the sudden sneak attack from behind still shocked the coachman. He actually did not guard against it.    

"You little bastard, go to hell."    

The driver was also a ruthless character. He grabbed Ning Changsheng's hair with a backhand, lifted him up, and sent him flying with a punch.    

Ning Changsheng spat out a mouthful of blood, and his entire body received a strong impact. He was thrown high up into the air, and was quickly received by the others.    

He was a child to begin with, and was too young. This punch was enough to beat him to death.
