Tang Long was also confused. He still hadn't figured it out yet. How could he be so lucky to befriend such a powerful person?
"Brother, please tell me something. I seem to have heard that the person who treated me is a disciple of the Baoshu Sect? Brother, you are so powerful that you can even afford to hire a disciple of the Baoshu Sect?"
Seeing his younger brother's beaming expression, Tang Long also smiled bitterly: "Tang Zhong, you think too highly of your brother, a disciple of the Baoshu Sect? I'm not even qualified to carry someone's shoes."
"But……"
"It's okay to say goodbye. If your brother and I knew the disciples of the Baoshu Sect, would we have been expelled from the border guard? Now there are three of us in the family, and even eating is a problem. Fortunately, the Wulingmu sold for a lot of money.
If we are more frugal, we can survive for two or three years." Tang Long still returned from fantasy to reality.
He also knew that he had met a noble person. The last time he was at the border, he was very generous and gave him a high-grade Canghai Pill.
This time in the capital, if it hadn't been for this man, not only would Wu Lingmu have been robbed, but Tang Long's women might have been beaten to death.
They were even sued because of Tang Long's matter. Just like that, they didn't blame them. Instead, they sent someone to rescue Tang Long's brother.
Tang Long sighed. He didn't like to owe others anything in his life. But he also knew that the favor he owed Jiang Chen would probably never be repaid in his lifetime.
"Jiang Chen... who is he?" Tang Long was really curious, "He is someone who even Lan Beigong is not afraid of. Even the Dragon Tooth Guard can't lock him up. Even the disciples of Baoshu Sect obey his orders. This
…Is this Jiang Chen a senior master of the Baoshu Sect?”
"That's all, that's all. Don't think too much. People just see me as pitiful and give me a little help. I come from a grassroots background in Tanglong and am an ant-like person. I am destined to be a different person from the same world as others."
Tang Long tried his best to put aside those random thoughts and said to the girl: "Xiaoqing, go and cook. You have been tired for a long time and you are also hungry. The black spirit wood was sold at a good price today. Go buy something delicious and give it to Tang Long."
I'll try to make him stand up and walk as soon as possible."
Tang Chong was very moved when his elder brother said this: "Brother, when I stand up and can walk, I will also find a job. I can't keep dragging you down."
"Silly boy, our father and mother are both gone. Your sister-in-law has also been betrothed to me as a child bride since she was a child. She also lost her father and mother. Now, we are a family of three, living together. You said we don't care about you, who?
Does it matter to you?"
Tang Long patted his younger brother on the shoulder: "Don't think too much and recover from your illness at this stage. You are still young and your days will be long in the future."
Having said that, Tang Long looked at the house with only four walls and felt sad in his heart. He also lost his job. He had to find something to do as soon as possible to support the family.
Fiancée Xiaoqing quietly took some money and walked out the door, planning to go to the market to buy some fish and meat to replenish her brother-in-law's health.
As soon as she walked out of the door, Xiaoqing suddenly screamed, her face turned pale with fright, and she ran back like a frightened deer.
"What's wrong?" Tang Long quickly ran to the door.
"Tang Long, I finally found you."
"Boy, you went home without permission and made us suffer."
"Tell me, how do you calculate this account? Do you think everything will be fine once you leave?"
There were four people coming, all young men in their twenties, wearing armor and hanging weapons on their waists. They all looked fierce and looked like they were looking for trouble.
"Team Yu, why are you here?" Tang Long was a little embarrassed and wiped his hands on his body.
"Why are we here?" A big man with a bald head and no eyebrows pushed Tang Long's chest, "Why are we here? You left your post privately, causing us to suffer. I was implicated by you and was beaten three times.
Are ten army sticks just in vain?"
"And we, each of us were hit with twenty military sticks. Tang Long, how do you settle this account?"
The other three team members also shouted, intending to come forward and beat Tang Long if they disagreed.
These are all Tang Long's comrades. Although the relationship is not close, they have worked together in the same team.
"Team Yu, this is my fault. I have an urgent matter at home and no one has approved my leave, so I came up with this bad idea. How about I be the host another day and invite everyone to a restaurant for a meal?" Tang Long?
He said with a smile, standing at the door, but did not move out of the way, nor did he ask these people to come in and sit down.
He also knew that although these people were colleagues, they had always had a sociable relationship with him. Moreover, these guys had very bad characters and were notorious thorns in the border guard army. They had always been half-military, half-bandit ruffians.
Tang Long didn't like it and rarely interacted with these people. Seeing that these guys were looking for trouble, they were obviously using the topic to cause trouble for Tang Long.
"Have a meal?" The bald and eyebrowless Captain Yu laughed eerily, "Tang Long, do you think we are so poor that we can't even afford a meal, so you need to treat us to a meal?"
"No, it's not. I'm asking to express my apology and the care you have taken for me in the past." Tang Long said with a smile.
"Team Yu, don't talk nonsense to this kid. Pull him out and beat him up. If you don't beat him to half death, wouldn't our military stick be in vain?"
"Yes, this kid usually doesn't get along with us. I think he left his post privately this time to deliberately drag us into trouble. He has very bad intentions. If he didn't beat him, he wouldn't know that we brothers are not easy to mess with."
"beat him"
Tang Long's expression changed and he took a deep breath: "Captain Yu, how about we go out and talk about these things? My family is here, don't disturb them."
The bald and eyebrowless Captain Yu chuckled and said, "Family? I saw a little girl just now. She looked quite delicate. Who are you?"
"That's my woman." Tang Long suddenly felt in his heart. He had heard about the reputation of this bald and eyebrowless member of the team. This guy was good at everything, especially women.
"Your woman? I heard that she is just your fiancée, right?" Team Yu smiled half-heartedly.
"Although the wedding has not yet been held, Xiaoqing grew up in my family and we have been engaged as husband and wife since childhood. Team Yu, these trivial matters don't have to taint your ears. Let's go out and talk."
Team Yu opened Tang Long's extended hand and shouted: "Take your hand away, and if you reach out again, I will chop off your dog's claws."
"Tang Long, if you want to treat us to dinner, you can. Let your woman go and drink with Captain Yu. Captain Yu will be happy to serve you. Let's pretend that this didn't happen."
"Yes, yes, you look pretty good as a woman. Captain Yu, what do you think?"
Team Yu chuckled, his fierce gaze glaring at Tang Long: "Tang Long, let your woman drink with us brothers all night. I promise not to pursue this matter again."
Tang Long's expression changed: "Impossible."
"No need to discuss?" Captain Yu's smile suddenly faded, "Tang Long, so you are not planning to ask for our forgiveness?"
Tang Zhong inside, trembled all over after hearing this, and couldn't help but cursed: "Is this how you guys, wearing military uniforms and receiving salary from the kingdom, bully men, dominate women, and attack your colleagues? This is still the kingdom's world.
Do you still need the laws of the Kingdom?"
Pushing the wheelchair, Tang Zhong came to the door excitedly.
Team Yu was stunned: "Is this your crippled brother?"
"Haha, is there something wrong with your brother's brain? Bullying men and dominating women? Kingdom laws? How dare you, a cripple like you, talk to us about Kingdom laws?"
"Do you know what the law is? We are strong, and we are the law."
"You're a cripple. Get away. Otherwise, I'll beat you too later."
The bald team member Yu's expression darkened: "Tang Long, I will give you one last chance to let your woman come out. We will pay for the wine. We only need her to accompany you for one night. We will definitely let her back tomorrow."
Tang Long's hands were trembling, he was so humiliated.
If he were not at home, he would definitely fight for his life in anger. However, his reason told him that if he fought for his life now, his brother and Xiaoqing would both die together.
However, if they don't fight for their lives, these guys will definitely resort to violence. These guys are all desperadoes. Regardless of their status and connections, they are higher and wider than Tang Long. If they try hard, they will only die.
"What should I do?" The palms under Tang Long's sleeves were just clenched fists.
"I'm counting to ten. Ten, nine, eight..." Bald Captain Yu started counting.
These people were doing all kinds of things, and they naturally made inquiries before coming. They knew that Tang Long had no background, and no matter how they bullied him, there was absolutely no possibility of him turning around and taking revenge.
They had actually heard that Tang Long had a very good-looking fiancée. After drinking this time, their minds started to heat up, and when they mentioned Tang Long, they swarmed over him, because they were targeting Tang Long's woman.
Those nonsense words are just excuses to find trouble.
"Five, four, three..."
Tang Long felt more and more desperate. He knew that he had no way out. He had already made up his mind to fight to the death.
Even if I die, I can't let Xiaoqing be ruined by these beasts. Even if I die, I must drag the rest of the team to die together.
"Tang Zhong, you go in." Tang Long pushed the wheelchair and pushed Tang Zhong in.
"Two, one." The remaining team's voice was extremely cold.
"Kill him, beat him to death, except that woman," ordered the rest of the bald team.
At this moment, a voice came from the alleyway outside: "Tang Long, does Tang Long live here?"
The sound was very abrupt.
Not to mention Tang Long, even the rest of the team were about to pounce, but they suddenly stopped.
The rest of the team was displeased and said to one of his subordinates: "Go and see who is yelling and screaming here. Those who don't know what to do will be killed."
"Who do you want to kill?" As soon as Team Yu's order was given, the voice from outside came to the door.
The person who came was about thirty years old. He was dressed in casual clothes. He seemed to be a martial arts practitioner. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's and he glanced at the four people in the remaining team.
"What are you looking at?" Behind Team Yu, a subordinate stared.
"If you look again, I'll dig out your eyeballs." Another subordinate threatened.
The man in plain clothes looked at the four people up and down, and couldn't help but laugh: "You are the border guards? When did the border guards become so arrogant in the royal capital?"
As he said that, he didn't bother to pay attention to these people and looked at Tang Long: "Are you Tang Long?"
When Tang Long looked at this person, he didn't recognize him. But at this time, if someone came, it meant there was a turning point. He nodded quickly: "I am Tang Long, who is your Excellency?"
