Sun Liangsheng's suspicions are reasonable. He is the head catcher on the ground, and anyone who knows martial arts will naturally know him.
How many people can reach the top level by practicing martial arts?
But Sun Liang, the catcher, didn't even know him. He hadn't been retired for many years, he only came to him a few days ago.
Suddenly, there were so many warriors he didn't know in the Yingzhou government office, which was really strange.
Jiang Chao was afraid that they were people sent by the imperial court. After all, Zhang Xiaoxian was behind the death of his adoptive father!
Because he didn't know the opponent's strength, Jiang Chao didn't dare to act rashly and could only observe in secret while eating food.
When Sun Liang and Jiang Chao were silent, those people also looked wary.
A yamen servant who looked not much older than Jiang Chao seemed to be dissatisfied: "Brother, we have walked around a lot, where can we find the eldest lady?"
"Shut up, no one is mute if you don't speak!" The slightly older young government officer glared at the questioner. Jiang Chao felt something strange when he spoke.
Sun Liang was startled, and he hurriedly reminded Jiang Chao in a low voice: "Young Master Jiang! The accent of these people is from the north, they seem to be from Luzhou, Beiju!"
Jiang Chao was secretly alarmed. Beiju Luzhou was about a thousand miles away from Beiyan.
Before the Four Sects Rebellion caused great changes in the martial arts there, Li Qin'an, the king of the Northern Tang Dynasty, swept across Beiju Luzhou and established the Northern Tang Dynasty.
After the Four Sects Rebellion, they fought against the Seven Kingdoms and occupied the three counties of Beihai in Nanzhan Buzhou.
It is recognized by the world as the first dynasty in troubled times.
It stands to reason that the relationship between the Northern Tang and the Northern Yan is not good. In addition, there is the Beiwu Emperor's City in the Northern Tang. The warriors of the Northern Tang look down on the martial arts of the Northern Yan. What are they doing here?
But at this moment, the younger "yamen servant" retorted: "But senior brother, that awesome old man always makes trouble! In this case, we still can't find Miss Jiang!"
"!!!"
In Yingzhou, there is only one family named Jiang.
That’s Jiang Chao’s family!
Who else could they call Miss Jiang besides Jiang Yue, the most beautiful woman in Yingzhou?!
Jiang Chao glanced at Sun Liang and wanted to test the strength of these people.
Sun Liangliang understood the idea and pretended to say loudly: "Brother Li, thank you for protecting me along the way, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to reach Yingzhou. I am familiar with Yingzhou and we have been traveling for a long time. After dinner, brother will take you
The two pretended to go to the casino and left chatting and laughing.
The leader of the group glanced at Jiang Chao.
The handsome and elegant "yamen servant" on the side asked: "Brother, is there something wrong with this person?"
The leader shook his head: "It's nothing. The strength of the ninth grade can't cause any trouble. I just feel that there is something wrong with this person, but I can't explain it..."
"It's better to eat quickly and avoid getting into trouble. We have to find Yue'er before those people from Dongsheng Shenzhou! We can't let Uncle Qi die in peace."
"Okay, listen to senior brother in everything!"
After going out, Sun Liang looked left and right, and found that his eyes were fixed on a group of strong men standing on the street shirtless and drinking.
He patted Jiang Chao and indicated that he could use those scoundrels to test these people pretending to be government officials.
These people are from the Linghe Martial Arts Gym, which is the martial arts gym opened by Linghe Fort in Yingzhou and has recruited many street gangsters as thugs.
Sun Liang often interacts with these people, so he is familiar with them.
He took out some loose silver and handed it to the stall owner: "Give these brothers some good wine."
The boss smiled and took the silver, while the ninth-grade low-level warriors who were drinking looked at Sun Liang.
"What do you do?"
Obviously they were wary of Sun Liang. Jiang Chao stood up and handed over his hands: "I am the new deacon of the Yang family. I am new here and I want to make friends with you."
Everyone looked at each other, wondering if what Jiang Chao said was true, but they did hear that Zhang Fu was dead, and the Yang family had a lot of vacancies recently.
So the person in front of me might be the deacon of the Yang family.
Just then, a drunken old man came over. He grabbed the wine bottle on the table and drank it all in one gulp.
This man couldn't tell how strong his skills were, but he exuded the aura of a strong man all the time.
The old man's hair was messy and his face was black and ugly. Half of his face was covered with burn scars.
Judging from what he was wearing, although the Taoist robe was relatively clean, there were patches everywhere, and he seemed to be in a bad situation.
He carried a black iron sword on his back and a wine gourd hanging on his waist.
The scarred man glared at the old man and said, "You bitch, do you want to die?"
Wow!!
The scarred man knocked the wine bottle out of Lao Dao's hand, and Sun Liang was shocked.
At this time, Jiang Chao's eyes fell on Lao Dao. He felt that this person was extraordinary. He should be a warrior, and he was unfathomable!
Then Jiang Chao looked at the man with scars on his face. Jiang Chao could tell that this man was a ninth-grade man.
He should be the leader of these people.
"Boss, I settled this big brother's account today."
The scarred man was stunned, and he cupped his fists towards Jiang Chao: "Brothers are very loyal. Linghe Martial Arts School and the Yang family are allies. If you have any questions, we can just talk to each other and take care of each other."
Jiang Chao smiled and took out a hundred taels of silver notes from his sleeves: "To be honest, I was bullied by a group of government servants while I was doing something just now. If I go back and say it, I'm afraid of being laughed at by my family and affecting my status in the family.
"
"So I ask all brothers to seek justice for me. I can use these small sums of money to treat you to a drink and express my feelings."
The scarred man glanced at the banknotes on the table, then put them away indifferently: "It's a small matter, wherever you are, our brothers will vent our anger for you."
Jiang Chao pointed to the inn where he was staying, and the leader shouted: "Brothers, let's go! After the matter is settled, I'll treat you to a restaurant!"
"Thank you, brother!"
These people stood up and shouted, walking towards the inn one by one, shaking their heads.
Jiang Chao looked at Lao Dao again. The boss thought that Jiang Chao disliked Lao Dao, so he coaxed Lao Dao: "Get out of here, you stinking beggar!"
However, Jiang Chao raised his hand: "It's all open for business, why bother chasing people away? I've paid for this Taoist's wine!"
Seeing that Jiang Chao was willing to take money, the boss couldn't drive him away anymore.
I could only let the old man continue to drink here. The boss brought two bottles of wine, but the old man didn't even say thank you.
Instead, he sat there carefree, pouring himself a glass of wine.
Sun Liang was furious when he saw the old Taoist being so arrogant, but Jiang Chao told him to shut up with his eyes.
The old Taoist drank two bottles of wine in one gulp, then slapped his hands on the table.
"boom!"
Sun Liang was startled, and the wine spilled on his clothes. He got up angrily and pointed at the old man: "Are you sick!?"
The old Taoist didn't look at Sun Liang at all. He wiped the wine from his mouth and pointed at Jiang Chao: "Boy, you are in big trouble!"
Jiang Chao frowned: "Master Taoist, what do you mean by this?"
The old man snorted coldly and glanced sideways at Jiang Chao: "It's not wise for you to provoke those guys in disguise!"
