Zhuo Xingyang rubbed oil on the soles of his feet and turned around to find Yan Chu and Xiao Qi. The three of them went to have a drink together.
The Qingfeng Inn is full of guests.
Xingyang waved his hand: "Brother, has the wine you ordered last time arrived?"
The second boy came over and said, "Here we are, the one just arrived yesterday. I'll bring it up to you."
Yanchu and Xiaoqi gradually became good brothers with Xingyang who said everything right. Xingyang was like a big brother and took great care of these two people.
But, this meal...
It doesn’t stop!
Xiaoqi: "Brother Xingyang, who is the girl brought back by the Fourteenth Master today?"
Zhuo Xingyang: "Call me Jingwen, the gang leader's beauty."
Yan Chu: "Ah, that's right? This girl is indeed beautiful, but why do she always feel so silly?"
Zhuo Xingyang: "What do you know, you little brat? Do you know that you are pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger? Do you think someone who can take down the gang leader will be stupid?"
Xiaoqi: "That's not necessarily true. If the gang leader is in front of the girl, his brain will not be able to keep up. This is very possible."
Zhuo Xingyang: "Hmm... well, what you said makes sense. The gang leader has not been around women for so many years, and I don't know how he got the idea."
Xiao Qi asked curiously: "You haven't been around women for so many years?"
Zhuo Xingyang: "That's right, I've never had one before. You probably don't have any experience in talking about love or falling in love. It's really possible that two stupid people will meet together."
Xiaoqi: "I think that girl, no, she should be the eldest sister, is really a bit silly."
Zhuo Xingyang smiled and said: "Never mind her. Just stay away and hide. You won't get into trouble. Drink and eat. I'm hungry."
Yanchu and Xiaoqi always wonder: How did the gang leader "abuse" Brother Xingyang, causing such a big psychological shadow on Brother Xingyang! Even the eldest sister has to hide.
They couldn't imagine the extenuating circumstances - after they joined the sect, Chang Shisan went on a long journey, and they have never seen him again until now.
They had never seen Chang Shisan's style of behavior at all. They had never seen how Chang Shisan taught Zhuo Xingyang a lesson.
When Chang Shisan comes back, Zhuo Xingyang's good days are coming to an end.
Tang Shaoan has come back, which means Chang Shisan will come back soon.
Zhuo Xingyang: "Starting tomorrow, cancel all eating, drinking, and entertainment, and start focusing on practicing. Otherwise, I will be miserable when the gang leader comes back."
It’s time to check your homework—a reminder of the countdown.
Xiaoqi: "Oh. When will you start tomorrow?"
Xingyang: "One and a half hours before breakfast."
Xiao Qi frowned: "So early?! Brother Yan and I can't get up!"
Xingyang: "If you can't get up, I won't wait for you. Otherwise, I will really die."
Yan Chu: "Okay, okay, let's get up as soon as possible. Go to bed early tonight."
Xingyang: "Well, you can do whatever you want. I have to continue practicing two hours after dinner every day."
Yan Chu's eyes widened instantly. Wouldn't practicing with such intensity exhaust people to death?
The answer is - no.
Zhuo Xingyang had practiced this way before. However, the difference between him practicing by himself and Chang Shisan watching him practice is that he would not be beaten, starved, or deprived of sleep.
After eating and drinking, the Qingfeng Inn was still full of guests. However, people came and went, and the number of people changed.
Just when Zhuo Xingyang and the others were about to leave, a disciple wearing a Xiangyun belt around his waist suddenly broke in——
"Dharma protector, Dharma protector!" The man shouted and rushed to Xingyang.
Zhuo Xingyang: "What's wrong?"
The disciple reported: "Defender, something happened. My subordinate, Wang Yun, said you were here, so I came to look for you!"
Zhuo Xingyang: "Brother, the money is in the account. I'll leave first. Yan Chu, Xiao Qi, let's go."
After leaving the Qingfeng Inn, the doorman lowered his voice and said: "Dharma Protector, Dengyun Escort's goods were robbed, and the two brothers who were escorting the goods were killed. Go and have a look!"
…
…
Dengyun Escort Agency
One of the escort agencies under the name of Tianyunshan Sect.
Who is so bold to act under the nose?
On the outskirts of Tianyun Mountain, two corpses were found, with blood splattered on the spot.
Yan Chu and Xiao Qi were still young, so naturally they had never seen such a bloody scene.
The two of them were so frightened that they turned around.
The two men were easily identifiable because they were wearing the uniform uniforms of Dengyun Escort Agency.
Zhuo Xingyang frowned and stepped forward to check the wound.
Killed with one blow.
What a master does?
No, the wound was more like a short blade like a dagger.
A short range attack?
But there was no trace of resistance.
Two people died at the same time——
What does this mean?
Zhuo Xingyang: "Wang Yun"
Wang Yun: "My subordinate is here."
Zhuo Xingyang: "Who else knows about this matter now?"
Wang Yun: "One of my brothers went to inform Ling Dutong. Counting the two people who came with you, there are six people in total. This place is remote enough that no one coming and going can find it."
Zhuo Xingyang: "Immediately block the news and keep your mouth shut. Especially the Dengyun Escort Bureau cannot cause riots."
Wang Yun: "Yes, I will obey."
Ling Xiu rushed over in a hurry.
Two people lost their lives, this is a big deal!
Several people saluted: "I've seen Du Tong."
Ling Xiu dismounted and came over: "Xingyang, how are you doing?"
Zhuo Xingyang: "What a strange thing."
Ling Xiu: "How to say?"
Zhuo Xingyang: "The body is there, but the goods are not there, and the carriage that transported the goods is also missing. The two of them died very, how should I say, very suddenly? It's strange."
Ling Xiu looked at the wound carefully and found that it was indeed caused by a dagger or something.
Being killed at close range without any resistance, what does this mean?
Ling Xiu: "Killed by an acquaintance."
Zhuo Xingyang: "Cut the goods? Are these goods valuable? Even if the goods are intercepted, there is no need to kill people. Could it be that... this person must be killed? Or maybe it is to kill people, is the interception of goods to cover up the intention?"
The place where the body was located was very hidden.
It seems that these two people have been together for three or four hours.
Ling Xiu: "Let's go to Dengyun Escort Agency."
Dengyun Escort Bureau, the chief escort is named Chen Yichuan, and the deputy chief escort is named Tang Yuan.
Chen Yichuan is an upright man and acts coldly and resolutely.
Tang Yuan, on the other hand, is just the opposite. Although he is not a bad person, he has a lot of eyes and a quick brain. When doing things, he always has to compromise.
Tang Yuan was the fellow disciple of the helmsman Chao Si, and Chao Si single-handedly secured him the position of deputy chief escort.
At first, seeing that Tang Yuan was capable, Chang Shisan agreed.
But Ling Xiu had never set his sights on this person. He hated to see others play tricks on him.
…
…
Ling Xiu and others came to Dengyun Escort Agency.
Chen Yichuan welcomed him into the house.
The screen recedes to the left and right.
Ling Xiu: "Yichuan, is this escort expensive? What exactly is it?"
Chen Yichuan: "My subordinates found out that this escort is just ordinary goods, with a total of only one or two hundred taels of silver. This escort trip is very short, and the errand fee is only twenty taels."
