"Outer City is very dangerous. I can only protect you. So I have to send them both back first."
Wu Lian leads the way.
Zhang Lingshan said, "I won't go to Outer City for the time being. I want to go see the Senior Brother brothers first. By the way, I can take my mother and sister to visit Inner City. It won't be in the way."
"This is not a hindrance, but only you and I can leave Inner City to avoid any accidents. This is all for your own good, understand?" Wu Lian said.
Zhang Lingshan found that this person still had some human touch and his words were not rigid, so he nodded and said, "I understand. Thank you Brother Wu for being so accommodating."
Say it.
Under the guidance of Wu Lian, we finally walked out of the gate of the Jiang Family.
Outside the gate, there were four Burly Man standing on the left and right. When they saw Zhang Lingshan coming out, the four of them turned around and blocked the door, staring at them.
Wu Lian raised a golden forearm-sized Vajra Pestle.
When the four guards saw this, they immediately made a Buddhist salute and stepped aside.
Zhang Lingshan Write it down secretly.
The four Burly Mans in front of us are not weak in strength. They are all Tendon Transformation Realms, and their bodies and shapes are almost exactly the same. There must be a way to join forces.
If he wants to leave Jiang Family privately, he must either have Vajra Pestle in the hands of Wu Lian, or he must avoid the interception of the four people.
None of it is easy.
"Your Senior Brother brothers work in the restaurant, Incense Hall, Weapon Workshop, and Horse Ranch respectively. I will take you to see them from near to far, and then send your mother and sister back. How about that?"
Wu Lian asked.
Zhang Lingshan nodded and said, "It all depends on Brother Wu's arrangement."
"Okay."
Wu Lian immediately started leading the way.
He has a pretty good temper.
Along the way, whenever Zhang Lingshan suggested, whether it was to stop to let my mother and sister rest, or to take a look at the scenery, or to visit the shops around Inner City, and buy some pastries, dried fruits, preserves, etc., Wu Lian was not impatient and agreed to all of them.
After walking around like this, I finally came to Jiang Family Restaurant and saw Senior Disciple Xu Liang.
As a restaurant manager, Xu Liang is usually not busy at all unless there are special occasions. When he saw Zhang Lingshan coming over, he was very surprised and immediately held a banquet.
At the dinner table, he said all kinds of good things about the Jiang Family, and he obviously lived very comfortably here.
Zhang Lingshan nodded. "Senior Brother is doing well and I'm relieved. I'll go meet other people."
Xu Liang sighed, "It's all thanks to you Xiao Shan. With my strength, I am at the bottom of Inner City, and I don't deserve such a status at all. I have made a lot of money recently, and Junior Brother keeps these things. I can't leave because of my position. Junior Brother You also say hello to everyone else on my behalf."
"Okay."
Zhang Lingshan took the three thousand taels Silver Note from him without refusing.
He knew that it was not just the money he had earned recently, but also Xu Liang's own savings.
But if the other party is willing to give it, you can take it. Anyway, there will be more places to use the money in the future.
After leaving the restaurant, they came to the Incense Hall, Zhang Lingshan and met Second Senior Sister Hong Wenjuan. They looked pretty good, and their work in the restaurant was easier than Xu Liang. They were responsible for supervising people making incense. If anyone was lazy, they could be beaten and scolded at will.
However, Hong Wenjuan is not a violent person. Except for occasionally scolding some lazy people, the overall atmosphere is peaceful.
"Xiao Shan, you have recovered."
Seeing Zhang Lingshan coming, Hong Wenjuan was very happy. While taking Zhang Lingshan to turn Incense Hall around, he said, "Although the work here is not tiring, you can't leave your post without permission."
"I understand, so if you have anything to say to Master, I will convey it on behalf of Senior Sister."
"This is great."
Hong Wenjuan quickly took out the letter he had written long ago and handed it to Zhang Lingshan. Like Xu Liang, he also gave three thousand taels of Silver Note as a gift and said, "You have just recovered and are in need of a lot of supplements. Please keep these Silver Note. It is my heart and soul. Don't refuse."
"Okay."
Zhang Lingshan nodded, and then went to Weapon Workshop and Horse Ranch to meet Wu Yuanqing and Xiao Ming.
Both of them also gave him three thousand taels Silver Note respectively.
It seems that everyone has communicated in advance.
Suddenly there was an extra twelve thousand taels, Zhang Lingshan took out two thousand taels Silver Note, handed them to Wu Lian and said, "Thank you, Brother Wu, for leading the way. It's just a small thing, but it's not respectful."
"It doesn't have to be this way."
Wu Lian waved his hand and declined. "These are what the head of the family ordered me to do."
His attitude was very firm, but he refused to accept it, and said, "Do you still want to go shopping? It's getting late."
"Then go back."
On the way back, I bought a lot of good things unique to Inner City, carrying them in large and small bags. Some of them were for my mother and sister to enjoy themselves, and some of them were packed and brought to Master.
Soon, they returned to the yard. Zhang Lingshan and Wu Lian agreed to set off at 10:00 tomorrow.
After Wu Lian returned, he asked Qiu Xiang to bring over the cooked Tendon Nourishing Soup.
That night.
Zhang Lingshan sat in his room and took Tendon Nourishing Soup.
As expected, Energy Points still flashes Red Light crazily, which means the toxicity is not weak.
Similarly, Energy Points has also improved a lot.
It has improved by more than 800 points, which is even more than Red Astragalus Eight Treasures Soup.
At the same time, the effect of Tendon Nourishing Soup itself also spread to the whole body. Zhang Lingshan could feel the muscles and bones beating under the skin and flesh, and the body sometimes tensed and sometimes relaxed.
It lasted for three full hours before the effect of the medicine finally wore off.
At this time, it was not far from dawn.
Soon.
At Chen time, Wu Lian came on time to meet Zhang Lingshan. Without any nonsense, the two went straight to Outer City and arrived at the Hongying Martial Hall.
"Xiao Shan is here."
Zhao Hongying Red Light welcomed Zhang Lingshan in with a smile on his face.
Since Hong Zhengdao surrendered to her, her heart became alive again. She thought she was Zhang Lingshan's master and said with a smile, "Your master is still resting. Let's talk first. Who is this?"
She looked at Wu Lian next to Zhang Lingshan in confusion.
Zhang Lingshan said, "This is brother Wu Lian. Master Jiang Family has arranged for me to be responsible for protecting my safety. He is worried that I will be assassinated by Yu Jiren."
"Protecting safety? Do you have to worry about safety here?"
Zhao Hongying waved his hand and said, "Let him go out, we two are talking privately, what does it mean for an outsider to be here?"
"This..." Zhang Lingshan hesitated and looked at Wu Lian, "Brother Wu Lian, is this okay?"
"Yes. I have heard that the owner of the Hongying Martial Hall is a hero among women. When I saw her today, her reputation is well-deserved. Even Yu Jiren wouldn't dare to come if she is around. However, my duty is to keep you from being too far away."
Wu Lian was very considerate, and after saying that, he turned around and left, standing guard at the door.
Zhao Hongying waved and said, "Xiaolian, go make a pot of tea for Xiao Shan."
"Yes, Master."
A long-legged and charming woman in the courtyard immediately responded.
Less than a moment.
She came in with a plate of tea and closed the door, blocking Wu Lian's sight from outside.
Zhao Hongying is very satisfied with her wit, and it is not in vain that he loves her so much.
"Xiao Shan, this is my fourth disciple Song Lian, have you seen him before?"
"I've seen it." Zhang Lingshan nodded.
Zhao Hongying said, "I heard that you two didn't get along well together before, and she almost got married to Zhao Qing. There must be some grudge between the two of you. But I want to be a peacemaker today. I hope you two can get along well and don't feel bad about the past. How about that?"
"Okay. I have no objection at all. I just listen to you." Zhang Lingshan said.
Zhao Hongying looked at Song Lian.
Song Lian quickly poured a cup of tea for Zhang Lingshan and said, "Thank you Young Master Shan for disregarding the past. Please drink tea with Young Master Shan."
"Haha, these are all small things, not worth mentioning."
Zhang Lingshan smiled faintly and took a sip of tea.
Song Lian's heart is extremely complicated.
I still remember the first time I met Zhang Lingshan, this guy didn't accept my solicitation, didn't know how to flatter him, and didn't know what the world was like, which made me very unhappy.
However, in just a few months, the other person has grown to the point where he is now, and he can only look up to him.
If it weren't for Master's care, I might not even have the chance to drink tea with others.
The changes in the world are like a dog in the white clouds, making it difficult for people to grasp and guess.
"Okay, okay, just let me know. Xiaolian, go and invite Master Hong Fu."
"Yes."
Song Lian Resign immediately.
After she left, Zhao Hongying said, "Your master is very worried about you, but it's a pity that he can't get in the Jiang Family and can't see you. Fortunately, you are here. Just in time, let me see how you are recovering."
After that, he stood up, walked to the free space in the room, and made a hand gesture.
Zhang Lingshan immediately stood opposite her, knowing that the other party wanted to give him some advice on martial arts for Master Hong's sake, so he showed great respect and showed Righteous Yang Posture's Respectful Yang Posture.
"Watch it!"
Zhao Hongying shouted, and his right leg suddenly made the sound of the rubber band tightening, then snapped, like a whip, and hit Zhang Lingshan's waist fiercely.
Zhang Lingshan quickly resisted with Blood Claw Hand.
Bang bang bang!
The two exchanged dozens of moves in an instant.
However, Zhao Hongying used just the right amount of force every time, never hurting Zhang Lingshan at all, and allowing Zhang Lingshan to see her movements clearly.
After a while.
She stood up with her legs closed and said, "Do you understand?"
"Got it."
Zhang Lingshan nodded.
At this time, Panel has a new martial art called [Red Crane Leg Technique].
Next, Zhao Hongying taught Zhang Lingshan three martial arts [Red Crane Movement Technique][Red Crane Swordplay][Red Crane Finger Technique] in a half-sparring and half-demonstration manner.
Because this is a set of red crane skills, all developed from Red Crane Posture, so there is no need to teach them specially, Zhang Lingshan naturally learned it [Red Crane Posture].
In addition, Zhao Hongying showed Zhang Lingshan a lot of miscellaneous kung fu, but basically there was no training method, all Combat Technique, Panel was not included.
After resting, Zhao Hongying said, "Martial arts should focus on special skills, but it cannot be done behind closed doors. You need to learn other skills at the same time. I am not teaching you these things to let you practice, because one person's time is limited, and it is impossible to master them all. The main thing is to let you understand. If you understand more, you may be able to put it to use. A life-and-death confrontation often happens in just a thought."
"Understood! Thank you very much, Master Zhao."
"What did you call me?" Zhao Hongying frowned.
At this time, Chacha Hong Zhengdao walked in, and Zhao Hongying snorted dissatisfiedly, "Listen, what did your precious disciple call me?"
The smile on Hong Zhengdao's face immediately faded, and he pretended to be angry and shouted, "What are you calling Master Zhao? Why don't you call me Mistress?"
"Yes. Master's wife."
Zhang Lingshan quickly changed his mind.
When Zhao Hongying turned from anger to joy, he helped Hong Zhengdao sit down on a chair and said with a smile, "I just checked you, Xiao Shan's body has fully recovered."
"Okay, okay, great. Xiao Shan, how are you doing at the Jiang Family?" Hong Zhengdao asked with concern.
Zhang Lingshan will narrate his experiences during this period.
Slowly, it gets darker.
The master and apprentice still had endless things to say, so Zhang Lingshan and Hong Zhengdao slept in the same room and talked by candlelight at night.
Wu Lian and Zhao Hongying sleep next door to the left and right respectively.
Near the Hongying Martial Hall, in a private house, the smell of blood was pungent.
I saw four corpses lying scattered in the room.
But an old man Hook-Nosed Man whose face was covered with scars seemed to be at a loss. He just stared in the direction of the Hongying Martial Hall with his eyes filled with endless malice.
It is Yu Jiren.
Because Yuan Qiu was injured, the plan to go out for a trial was delayed.
As a personal guard, Yu Jiren was naturally severely punished for his poor protection.
I don't know what kind of punishment he received in the Yuan Family. I only saw dozens of scars on his face that looked like earthworms, and his tall figure became rickety for some reason.
The whole person has become beyond recognition and ugly!
Not to mention that Zhang Lingshan doesn't recognize this portrait, even Hong Zhengdao, Zhao Hongying and other people who have known him for decades do not recognize him.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Yu Jiren roared in his heart, his eyes were red, and he seemed to have lost his mind. He kept muttering in his mouth, but he did not rush into the Hongying Martial Hall, but waited quietly for the opportunity.
The other place is two streets away from Jin City hero Huo Residence, in an empty private house.
"Xiaoyan, are you sure you want to go in?" Celestial Crane Daoist, who was wearing a yellow Daoist robe, asked.
Yan Yuqing said, "This Huo Family is very vigilant. All the surrounding streets centered on Huo Residence will be blocked and no one will be allowed to approach. There must be a big secret. We can't go in during the day and can only explore at night."
"But, I think it's better for us not to go in. For some reason, the closer we get to the Huo Family, the more uneasy I feel. I'm afraid..."
Celestial Crane Daoist looked worried.
Yan Yuqing said excitedly, "If the Daoist master is afraid, then stay here and the three of us will go explore."
"That's very good. The poor Daoist is here waiting for the good news from the three of you." Celestial Crane Daoist nodded with deep approval.
"..."
Yan Yuqing I didn't expect this guy to be so shameless and show off so simply. I should have known I wouldn't have said that.
The maid Xiao Wei on the side heard the elegant meaning of Xian Ge and immediately said, "Daoist Master, don't you know fortune telling? You can predict the good or bad luck of our trip."
"That's how it should be."
Celestial Crane Daoist said, took out a handful of copper coins from his arms and threw them to the ground.
The copper coins immediately formed a circle, with a total of thirty-six coins.
Then Celestial Crane Daoist took out a Yellow Talisman, squeezed Sword Finger, sent Yellow Talisman into the copper coin circle, and shouted, "Quick!"
Poof.
Yellow Talisman ignites instantly.
Dang rang rang.
I saw thirty-six copper coins suddenly beating together.
After Yellow Talisman burned out, you saw all the copper coins standing in place, motionless.
"What does this mean?"
Yan Yuqing asked.
Celestial Crane Daoist looked thoughtful, and after a long time, said, "I don't know."
"..."
Yan Yuqing subconsciously clenched his fists.
Celestial Crane Daoist said helplessly, "I'm not kidding, I really don't know.
"But this also proves that this trip is neither auspicious nor unlucky. It is unpredictable. There must be a turning point in it. Good or bad can only happen in a thought.
"If you're lucky, you'll save the day; if you're not lucky, you'll escape death! So just in case, it's best not to take risks.
"Of course, if you have to take risks, it's not impossible. But I'm afraid that the things I have on hand will be used up. Among them..."
Celestial Crane Daoist said and smiled.
"How much money it takes, it's all mine!" Yan Yuqing said angrily.
"Ten thousand taels--"
Yan Yuqing thought he could open the lion's mouth as big as he wanted, but it was only ten thousand taels, so he immediately said, "Okay."
But Celestial Crane Daoist said seriously, "I'm talking about gold."
