Zhang Xiaozu was deeply impressed by Zhou Jianlai, especially the giant sword in his hand.
So as soon as he heard the name 'Zhou Jianlai', Zhang Xiaozu's mind immediately pictured the young man in black clothes at the entrance of Shuanglong Valley, with a stern expression and dignified appearance, dragging a giant sword more than one foot long in his hand.
figure.
But looking at the slovenly man in front of him with tattered clothes, tangled hair, stains on his face, especially the dazzling broken arm, Zhang Xiaopeng couldn't help but open his mouth, showing an expression of extreme shock, and his eyes showed suspicion.
, I suspect that the sword coming this week is not the sword coming from that week.
"Haha, the change is indeed a bit big. I have become a cripple." Zhou Jianlai shrugged his bare right shoulder and laughed at himself.
"Ah!" Zhang Xiaozu woke up from the shock and knew that he had lost his composure. He hurriedly bowed to Zhou Jianlai and said, "Please forgive Zhang Xiaozu for his blindness and failure to recognize his benefactor. I really shouldn't have. I hope my benefactor Haihan
, don’t blame me.”
Zhou Jianlai waved his hand and said: "It was Miss Qin who saved you that day. It has nothing to do with me. Don't call me your benefactor anymore. I'm two years older than you. If you don't mind, just call me Brother Zhou. If you can't.
Get used to it, it’s okay to call me by my name.”
The strength shown by Zhang Xiaozu completely won his recognition. He already regarded Zhang Xiaozu as a person of the same level, so he spoke in a very kind tone.
It has to be said that in this world where the strong are respected, the fastest and most direct way to win the respect of others is to show your fists and let others see how powerful you are.
"That little pawn is offended. I've met Brother Zhou." Zhou Jianlai gave Zhang Xiaozu the impression of being a straightforward person, so Zhang Xiaozu no longer pretended to be humble, and directly called Brother Zhou, and then asked with concern: "Brother Zhou, what are you doing?
What's going on? Who is your enemy? I will avenge you."
Zhang Xiaozu looked at Zhou Jianlai's broken arm and finally couldn't bear to ask. Zhou Jianlai's desolate situation made him unable to help but feel angry and wanted to avenge Zhou Jianlai's broken arm.
"It's the big-toothed dog!" Zhou Jianlai gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "That day we encountered the big-toothed dog invading from the dry underground river in the black forest, and then the big-toothed dog chased me all the way. In the fight, I broke my right arm. Fortunately, I lost my right arm.
I saved my humble life by saving my right arm. I lost my right arm and became a cripple. I was not welcomed by my family. I left home in a fit of anger and moved to Yancheng. What about you? Why did you come to Yancheng too?"
"Me?" Zhang Xiaozu couldn't help but shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said: "I fell into a deep cold pool in the dark forest, and was accidentally swept into the underground river by the undercurrent. When I woke up, I lay in an underground cave, and followed the cave all the way.
When you walk out, you will arrive at Yancheng."
As he said that, Zhang Xiaozu's eyes fell on Niu Dawa and said: "Fortunately, I'm here, otherwise my brother's life would have been lost. I should thank God for guiding me to come here."
There was one question that he had been forcing himself not to think deeply about, and that was why Niu Dawa came to Yancheng and the fellow villagers of Liujia Village alone?
Zhou Jianlai's eyes followed Niu Dawa and said: "I checked his injuries before when you were in the ring. He had injured his roots after several fierce battles, and his internal organs, bones, meridians, etc. were seriously damaged. He is now lifeless.
Although he has been saved, just one Pill of Strengthening the Origin and Strengthening the Origin can make his body function smoothly and wake him up from his drowsiness. But "
"But what?" Zhang Xiaozu asked worriedly.
"But if he doesn't use powerful medicines for deep conditioning, nourishing and repairing his damaged roots and various organs in his body, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to improve his cultivation, and he will be left with hidden diseases that will never be cured for life." Zhou Jianlai said.
"Ah!" Zhang Xiaozhu exclaimed worriedly and asked hurriedly: "What kind of medicine is needed? How to treat it?"
Zhou Jianlai frowned slightly and said: "A total of hundreds of elixirs are needed, which can't be explained in a sentence or two. The top priority is to find a way to get into the city, because these elixirs can only be purchased in large medical clinics in the city."
"Brother Zhou is absolutely right." Zhang Xiaozu nodded quickly and asked Lu Kaixue: "Sir, please take care of me. I'll go to that arena to win some silver coins and pay the city fee."
"Don't go." Zhou Jianlai called out to Zhang Xiaopou, shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "I just left for a while to see if I could win some money, but I found that there was a master sitting under each straw shed, probably because of you.
If you make too much noise, these experts will be specially invited to guard you."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaozhu immediately looked under the thatched huts, and sure enough, he found that under each hut there was a man wearing a white suit. These men all seemed to be in their thirties, with restrained eyes. They were just sitting there.
It makes people feel a sense of oppression there.
Zhang Xiaozhu's eyes fell on a man. Before he could take a closer look, the man's eyes glanced over, startling him unexpectedly.
"They are all top-notch masters with keen senses. As long as your gaze falls on them for more than one breath, they will be able to sense your tracking. You should be no match for them." Zhou Jianlai did not dare to say it, because he
I can’t figure out what Zhang Xiaozu’s strength is at all.
"You shouldn't be able to beat them." Zhang Xiaozu shook his head, because these men in white clothes gave him palpitations, and his intuition told him that these people were extremely dangerous and should not be provoked.
"But you can't enter the city without money." Zhang Xiaopou looked a little at a loss and looked at Zhou Jianlai, hoping that he could find a way.
Zhou Jianlai did not disappoint him. He pointed at Niu Dawa and said, "I have a way to make money. Take him with you and follow me. Let's go and be heroes who rob the rich and give to the poor."
Zhou Jianlai's eyes suddenly flashed, and he seemed very excited.
"Ah?" Zhang Xiaozu and Lu Kaixue stared at the same time, never expecting that Zhou Jianlai's way of making money was to block roads and rob.
A quarter of an hour later, the four of them left the checkpoint at the city gate and stood not far from the roadside, looking at the bustling official road. Zhou Jianlai began to teach Zhang Xiaozu and Lu Kaixue his experience in road robbery.
"Those who walk on two legs are poor people without money. They are not our goal."
"Of course, there are also smart local rich people who are afraid that others will steal their money, so they deliberately dress up as Kuhaha and blend in with the crowd. In fact, such people can be identified at a glance. Their complexion, temperament, expression, eyes, etc. are all the same as those of real people.
There is a huge difference between poor people. However, such people are usually small rich people and there is no point in robbing them, so they are not our target."
"Except for those who walk on two legs, the rest are those who ride in carriages. In this harsh environment of famine and wilderness, those who can still ride on carriages must be rich or noble, so our target is them."
"But there is a difference between a horse-drawn carriage and a horse-drawn carriage."
"Those who don't have identification badges engraved on the carriages are mostly minor characters and can't grab much, so they will be eliminated directly."
"Those who can engrave identity badges on carriages are basically well-known people in various places, and they must be rich. They are our first choice."
"But please remember, there are differences in identity badges."
"Generally, gold and silver badges belong to wealthy gentry. There may be a master of some level sitting in the carriage to protect them, so carriages with these two colors of badges cannot be snatched."
"And those who use auspicious animal totems such as dragons, tigers, unicorns, and phoenixes as badges are also people whose status cannot be underestimated. Such badges cannot be snatched away."
"Let's grab those carriages with identity badges engraved on them, but they are just ordinary badges."
"have you understood?"
"" Zhang Xiaozu and Lu Kaixue looked at each other speechlessly, wiping the sweat on their foreheads, wondering how many times Zhou Jianlai had committed illegal acts of robbery on the road before this, otherwise how could he have such rich robbery experience.
"Do you understand?" Zhou Jianlai didn't hear Zhang Xiaozu and Lu Kaixue's response, so he raised his voice and asked again.
"I understand." Zhang Xiaozu and Lu Kaixue responded quickly.
"Okay." Zhou Jianlai nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand, and ordered: "You two go look for prey quickly, and come back and report it immediately after you find it."
"" Zhang Xiaozu and Lu Kaixue couldn't help but stare, feeling as if they were bandits.
"Hey, hey, look, there's a big carriage coming over there." Zhou Jianlai suddenly shouted in a low voice.
Zhang Xiaozu and Lu Kaixue looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough they saw a large vermilion carriage.
Conditionally, the two of them quickly scanned the carriage, and based on the robbery experience taught by Zhou Jianlai, searched whether there was an identity badge engraved on the carriage. If so, what color and totem was it? Can it be robbed?
When they realized what they were doing, they couldn't help but burst into tears. They thought that Zhou Jianlai had the potential to be a bandit leader, and he had recruited the two of them just by talking.
Neither of them would have imagined that Zhou Jianlai's robbery experience was not the result of his robbery with real swords and guns, but the fantasy he had in his heart since he was a child.
It has always been his dream to be a highway robber, a robber who robs the rich and gives to the poor.
In the past, he was bound by family rules and could only dare to fantasize secretly, but now he broke free from the restraints and let himself go like a wild horse.
"Although there is no identity badge engraved on this carriage, the carriage is exquisitely made and made of high-quality materials. The model is one size larger than a normal carriage. Most people cannot afford such a carriage, so there must be a fat owner sitting in the carriage. He is ready to take action.
"Zhou Jianlai quickly analyzed as he stared at the approaching large carriage. His eyes gradually burned, and he raised the long sword in his hand, eager to rush forward.
"Should we cover our faces?" Lu Kaixue asked tentatively.
Zhou Jianlai waved his hand and said heroically: "We are big thieves who rob the rich and give to the poor. We can change our names whether we work or sit down, and we can do anything with our faces covered. Listen to my order. Let's rush forward together and restrain the driver of the carriage as soon as possible."
, sealed the car doors and windows with swords, and drove the car over here. We won’t rob him much, we want half of his money. We only rob money, not sex.”
"I don't know martial arts, so I won't go over there. I'm responsible for taking care of Brother Dawa." Lu Kaixue waved his hands quickly.
"Okay." Zhou Jianlai readily agreed.
Zhang Xiaozu didn't want to go either, but thinking that the robbery was for Niu Dawa, he had no choice but to go.
"Come on, little ones!"
When the carriage drove onto the road directly ahead, Zhou Jianlai raised the sword in his hand and shouted, as if there were hundreds of minions under his hands.
There was a black line on Zhang Xiaozu's forehead because no one was paying attention to them, but Zhou Jianlai's voice made everyone on the road turn their heads and look over. He and Zhou Jianlai took a sword and the other took a sword, and ran away with their teeth and claws open.
