The storyteller looked disdainful. He raised his left foot and wanted to step on the beggar's face.
He lowered his head and saw clearly the appearance of the little beggar on the ground. He tilted his right foot and knelt on the ground: "My hero, Zhou Langjun later passed the county examination, and I even drank from his banquet in Cai County."
"To be honest, I haven't had such a good meal in more than ten years. At the banquet, he said that he wanted to come to my hometown to study. He will definitely leave this morning!"
The little beggar stared into the ranger's eyes and did not let go of his hand holding the corner of his clothes: "How do you know that he set off this morning?"
The knight pointed to the fast horse that brought up the smoke: "That day, the official Zhou Langjun offended was riding a horse like this!"
"Youngster has a knack for guessing other people's martial arts cultivation level with almost perfect accuracy. That person just now is in the fourth level and the first level, and he rode a horse and rode out in the morning!"
"Officials are so petty! The official sent him out to Cai County outside the Pass. The young one thought he must be going to deal with Zhou Langjun!"
Bai Huahong continued to move forward with a needle on his fingertip, and inserted another point into the ranger's flesh: "Then what? Don't hide it from me!"
She learned from the Lotus Cult using needle techniques. Everyone in the world knew the nature of the Lotus Cult. Bai Huahong relied on the reputation of the Lotus Cult to let the ranger reveal everything.
Warriors who can serve as rangers at the border are all good scouts and have more than one or two tricks.
Otherwise, he would either die in the hands of the demons who crossed the border, or he would have died in the hands of the border troops.
The ranger didn't dare to hide anything and said quickly: "This section of the road in Cai County is the most familiar to me."
"With a fast horse, starting from this point, you can reach Cai County in half a day. On this stretch of road, there is only one place that is most suitable for action."
"It's Fengming Valley! There are ghosts crying and wolves howling at night in Fengming Valley. No one will rest there in the middle of the night!"
"If Mr. Zhou had set out yesterday, he should have passed Fengming Valley by now, but after Fengming Valley is the boundary of Qingxue Mansion, there is no way to kill people! If you want to do it, you can only do it in Fengming Valley!"
"The fact that the killer is setting out now proves that Mr. Zhou has not yet passed Fengming Valley. He cannot possibly set out in the middle of the night. Xiangzhou is not peaceful at night!"
"Then Mr. Zhou must have set off in the morning. According to Ma Li, he should arrive at Fengming Valley in the afternoon. The killer should intercept and kill outside Fengming Valley in advance!"
"Auntie, that's all I guessed, please spare me!"
Bai Huahong took back the needle in her hand: "The needle is poisonous!"
"Don't worry, this isn't the first time I've said hello to someone from the teaching. I'll look for you again within three days!"
"No, I'll go with you!"
"Are you following me?"
Bai Huahong looked back at the man and woman behind her: "Did you hear what he said?"
The man nodded.
"I want Zhou Dagu to live!"
The woman was worried: "Then your safety!"
"Do you really think you two can protect my safety? If I hadn't been doing my exercises these days, no one in Xiangzhou would be able to keep me here!"
Bai Huahong stood up holding the shoulders of the ranger without looking back: "I said, I want Zhou Dagu to live!"
The two walked away, and the man and woman on the ground stood up and looked at each other.
"Master, what should I do?"
"There is nothing I can do. I knew when I joined the Holy Cult that such a day would come. If I didn't listen to the Holy Lady, we would both die faster. I still want to live to see my daughter!"
The two nodded helplessly, turned towards the gate of Qingxue Mansion, and left quickly in the opposite direction.
But in an instant, the stall selling steamed buns became empty.
The young man who threw the money to the ranger closed the folding fan in his hand and shook his head with satisfaction: "Interesting, interesting, this Xiangzhou is so interesting, that's why we came here!"
"I like to watch the excitement the most!"
"Let's go into the city!"
He stood up, and the bun shop became empty.
A dozen people followed him and walked into Qingxue Mansion City.
…………
Outside Fengming Valley.
The crisp sound of horse bells stopped. Zhou Dagu looked up and saw a little monkey squatting on a stone in the distance: "Wang An? Why are you here?"
On the stone, Wang An's clothes were half wet. He heard a familiar voice and turned around quickly to see clearly who was coming.
With a look of joy on his face, he jumped down from the stone with his old baggage in hand: "Brother Gu, Brother Gu, why are you here! I came last night and have been waiting for you all night!"
"You ask me? I also want to know, if you don't pick herbs from the mountains at home, what are you doing here? The herbs in Fengming Valley are more expensive?"
Wang An twisted and raised his shy face: "I'm waiting for you!"
"I want to go with you!"
Zhou Dagu jumped off the carriage, took two steps back, and took out a robe of his own from Xu Dian's carriage: "Put it on first! Don't freeze it!"
Wang An is just a child. He does not have the talent of a Confucian scholar to protect his body, nor does he have the physique of a warrior.
In this world, colds like to kill boys like him!
Zhou Dagu handed him the clothes, raised his head, saw the marks on his arms, and his face immediately darkened: "Your mother beat you again? I already told Grandpa Third, look at her, she still dares to beat you? "
Wang An lowered his head: "I don't blame her. I picked the herbs in the wrong place and found the herb field next to Zhu Yuan's wife's house. There was nothing she could do to beat me!"
"You don't blame her, why did you run away from home?"
"I'm not running away from home!" Wang An stiffened his neck, like a fighting chicken: "I left a letter home, I came out to seek a future!"
"Everyone in the village knows that you are the most promising, and I will definitely be successful if I follow you!"
Zhou Dagu smiled distressedly: "What? Do you understand? Do you want to study literature with me?"
"No, I am following you, but I don't study literature!"
Wang An took a step forward and looked into his eyes: "Brother Gu, please accept me! You will definitely be a big shot in the future. With you, I will definitely be more successful than at home!"
"Maybe I can meet a martial arts master. I don't want to spend my whole life climbing mountains. I was the one who found the medicine first, and I was framed for stealing. I don't want to live like this again!"
Wang An's legs were weak, and he was about to kneel down with tears in his eyes.
Zhou Dagu pulled him: "You know my literary name, why don't you want to study literature with me, are you afraid that I will teach you bad things?"
“Learning literature is too expensive!”
"How can I get you to pay for following my brother?" Zhou Youran frowned at him dissatisfied.
"No, no!" Wang An shook his head and waved his hands: "My father said that you can't owe anyone else. If you owe someone ten taels of silver, you have to pay back two taels more when you pay back the money. I'm afraid that I owe too much and I won't be able to pay it back by then. superior!"
"I know you don't care, but I do care... You help me because I think of my father. I can't be shameless!"
Zhou Dagu was stunned, thinking of the man who died in the Blood Dragon Valley.
In the end, if it hadn't been for him, I'm afraid I wouldn't have survived.
"Okay, since you only want to follow me, then you can follow me!"
"I will first let you be my book boy. According to my status as the head of the case, you will be paid one tael of silver per month. It cannot be lower, otherwise you will not give me face!"
Wang An went out overjoyed: "Thank you so much, Brother Gu! Thank you so much, Brother Gu!"
Zhou Dagu waved his hand: "Get in the car, don't miss my schedule!"
Zhou Youran narrowed his eyes and showed his joy, but he pretended to be disgusted and said: "Quickly throw away your old baggage. We have all kinds of fabrics in the car. When we get to the city, I will make you a dress. You will always wear this." Wearing shabby clothes is too big to disgrace my brother!"
Wang An was a little embarrassed: "This is my best clothes! I'll keep it! I can still wear it when doing dirty work!"
"Then, why do you keep this stick? Throw it away! Let's go to a new home and have a new beginning!"
Wang An hid the wooden stick behind his back: "My father gave this to me. This is not a stick, but a sword!"
Zhou Dagu tilted his head and glanced: "Is it from Taomu?"
"Um!"
"Hmph! I think you can become the best swordsman in the world! Get in the car!"
Wang An squeezed in next to Xu Dian. His butt was only hanging a little against the wide body of the car.
He smiled at Xu Dian in a flattering way.
Xu Dian nodded and took out a sticky bean bag from his arms: "Eat!"
"I'm not hungry!"
"If you want to be a warrior, you must have a good body. It's not whether you are hungry or not, but whether your body is hungry!"
Wang An nodded, stuffed a mouthful of bean buns into his mouth, choked for a long time before speaking: "Brother Dian, you must be a master among warriors!"
"I haven't entered the country yet!"
"You're so strong without entering the country, look at your muscles!" Wang An reached out and touched his arm, with an envious look on his face: "I wish I could be like you when I can!"
Xu Dian scratched his head and smiled sheepishly: "This is difficult. I was born with supernatural powers. My master said that I was born with supernatural powers. It is difficult to enter the country, but once I enter, I am much stronger than ordinary warriors!"
"Who is your master?"
Xu Dian raised his head: "You know the great hero of Zhongjie Breakthrough, Leopard Head, right?"
"I know, I know!"
Wang An had a look of envy on his face. The car shook, and then his heart calmed down.
Looking ahead, he saw Zhou Youran's side face and lowered his head.
"Can I really become a first-class swordsman?" He said to himself.
Zhou Dagu had a keen sense. Hearing his words, he shouted loudly: "Don't worry, I promised your father that I will treat you well. I will be the most powerful scholar from now on, and you will be my book boy!"
"If you want to become a swordsman, you must naturally become the best swordsman in the world!"
Wang An couldn't imagine this scene: "Wait a minute, how powerful would that be?"
Zhou Dagu pointed at Fengming Valley: "Did you see that day?"
Wang An nodded heavily. He came to Fengming Valley in the middle of the night and waited outside the valley for a long time. What impressed him most was the thin line of sky above Fengming Valley.
The cliffs reach into the clouds, as if they are really connected to the sky. The cliffs on both sides are dark, making it appear that the boundary between the sky and the sky is clear.
Zhou Dagu casually broke a willow branch on the roadside: "A first-class swordsman!"
"With one sword, break the Tianmen!"
"The sky is falling, the earth is sinking, the immortals are restless!"
The wind breaks the willow branches.
Wang An leaned on the carriage, looked at the sky, and opened his eyes: "Oh my God!"
The young man looked up at the sky.
It seems as if this sword is really hidden in his eyes!
