"There must be some misunderstanding. How can my master and apprentice be experts?" Zhang Sanfeng couldn't laugh or cry.
"It's not like you don't know. I have been with the Qingzhu Gang for so many years, but have I ever done anything important? I just made a living by relying on the few noodles I saved when I was wandering around in the world.
"Thanks to the care of the old gang leader these years, I am also thinking about doing something for the Qingzhu Gang. So when I heard that the Qingzhu Gang was in trouble this time, I pulled my old face and asked the escort agency that I had some friendship with me. I asked one of the head escorts to see if there was anything they could do.
"The other party wrote back and told me that he was willing to help me, so I hurriedly left Wujiang City and rushed to see him. Unexpectedly, when I arrived at his house, I didn't even go in. I heard the guard said that he had something urgent and was traveling far away.
"It took me a long time to find out where he went from the servant, and then I hurriedly chased him for five to six hundred miles, and my shoes were worn out. Only when I went to the boundary and inquired did I find out that he had gone there at all. Didn't come.
"Hey, it was only at this time that I realized that there was something urgent. The chief escort just didn't want to see me and get involved in the Qingzhu Gang.
"So I can only come back in despair." Zhang Sanfeng smiled bitterly, "Look, with my old face, what can I do even if I really risk my life?"
Niu Jiu was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead, "But... the senior brother of Xijiang Pavilion... said it himself, you are an expert."
"How could I possibly know such a big shot as Senior Brother of Xijiang Pavilion? Moreover, Wei Zixian is famous for having his eyes set above his own. How could he praise me, a low-class old man?"
"You don't know him, but Mr. Lu does. They were together a few days ago. Many people saw him, so you can't fake it."
Zhang Sanfeng shook his head when he heard this, "Young Master Lu, Lu Jing is right here. Let him tell you whether he knows the senior brother of Xijian Pavilion."
After saying this, Zhang Sanfeng looked at Lu Jing, and saw that Lu Jing had an embarrassed look on his face after hearing this.
Zhang Sanfeng was shocked, "Do you really know Wei Zixian?"
"Ah, it's a long story. Aren't I thinking about how to explain it to you?" Lu Jing said.
"Wei Zixian is your distant relative?"
"no."
"Are you a distant relative of Wei Zixian?"
"Ah...it doesn't make any difference, Master."
Zhang Sanfeng was also shocked by this incident and was a little incoherent. How could a random disciple be related to the Xijian Pavilion?
He took a deep breath to calm down and then continued, "Then you and Wei Zixian..."
"It's like this. I rescued a female disciple from Xijiang Pavilion named Xia Huai. Oh, it can't be considered a rescue. We actually rescued each other. Then she introduced me to her senior brother Wei Zixian... This is how Wei Zixian and I met.
"To be honest, I didn't expect his casual words to have such a big impact. He praised you as a hermit, but I don't know how it spread."
"You rescued a female disciple from Xijian Pavilion? How did you save her? Was she bitten by a snake?"
Before Lu Jing could answer, Zhang Sanfeng said again, "Let's put this aside for a moment and tell me what happened when Mr. Zhao from the Tianma Escort Bureau said that his first regret in life was not meeting me earlier?
"The Tianma Escort Bureau is one of the four major escort bureaus. Mr. Zhao, the Golden Escort and the Iron Danger, is such a heroic figure and a martial arts master. Even those green forest heroes gave him a thumbs up when they heard about it.
"Although I, Zhang Sanfeng, am also in this profession, I have been unknown for half my life. I am just a low-level escort. The escort agency I worked for before is not even as good as the Tianma Escort Agency. How can He De be worthy of the old hero Zhao? This sentence comes?
"And how did you help the government catch the boss who colluded with the devil?" Zhang Sanfeng asked.
"Oh, this is actually the same thing. Disciple, I was attacked by a master the night before yesterday..."
"Master, how tall can it be?"
Zhang Sanfeng expressed his doubts. He remembered clearly that when he left, the apprentice had not yet mastered the sense of Qi. Now it has only been more than twenty days. Let alone the master, even an ordinary person with a talent like Niu Jiu, Lu Jing. It may not be beatable.
Not to mention a sneak attack from the other side.
"Probably at the peak of the second-rate. The Imperial City Secretary's Office said he is Xiao Heqing, the King of Hell, who is ranked 69th on the Disha List... He seems to be a pretty powerful demon. The Imperial City Secretary has not arrested him for more than ten years. Caught.
"As for the collusion between Song Lord Bo and him, it was actually discovered by the Imperial City Division. His nephew Song Zhongwen failed to harm me, and he was afraid that I would seek revenge on him, so he went to ask his uncle.
"In the end, his uncle went to find Yama Wang Xiao, and then I killed him... So if I have to say it, Song Lord Bo Exposure does have something to do with me."
After Lu Jing finished speaking, he found his master looking at him blankly.
After a while, Zhang Sanfeng sighed, "When I was the youngest and boldest teacher, even after five kilograms of rice wine, I was not as bold as you."
"I told you, Master, early in the morning that this matter is actually a long story..." Lu Jing smiled bitterly.
"After all, I'm not a skilled worker," Zhang Sanfeng still shook his head, "Didn't you explain it clearly to me? This is too ridiculous."
"I have explained it, but everyone all said that you are a prodigal in games, and as an apprentice, it is not convenient for me to explain too much..."
Zhang Sanfeng had such rich experience in the world, but he immediately understood Lu Jing's difficulty.
Indeed, only disciples say that the master is good, and no disciple tells others that his master is not good behind his back.
But Zhang Sanfeng couldn't figure it out. How could Lu Jing, a person with no sense of anger, cause so many troubles in just over twenty days after he left?
It's the Xijian Pavilion, it's the Imperial City Division, and it's someone from the devil's path that you've provoked... Just mentioning any one of them is scary.
How did this kid survive?
And seeing that he was living quite well like this, Wei Zixian took him with him, and the magistrate wanted to do something for him, and even his master inexplicably became an expert in the world.
No wonder he heard from his daughter-in-law that as soon as he came back, many people from the world had come to give gifts, but because Zhang Sanfeng was not around, no one in the family dared to accept them, so most of them declined.
Niu Jiu was also trying to persuade him, "Mr. Zhang... The prefect has spoken, so you should recognize this master and make the decision for us poor people. Otherwise, the emperor will blame you and the prefect will be deceiving the emperor." Sin."
"This is all nonsense," Zhang Sanfeng said with a dark look on his face, "Do you think this is human language? I have heard of forcing good people to become prostitutes and soldiers to become bandits, but I have never heard of forcing people to become masters. Don’t I know how much I weigh?
"I'm already at this age and I have long since stopped thinking about being a world leader. My only wish is to spend the rest of my life in peace. Besides, if you can pretend to do this kind of thing for a while, can you pretend to do it for the rest of your life?"
"Actually... it's not impossible." Lu Jing on the side was also actively helping his master with suggestions.
Zhang Sanfeng glared at his apprentice when he heard this, "You still have the nerve to say that it's all your fault that caused this. I only accepted you because you were honest. If I had known you were so capable of tormenting me, I would have... "
Before he finished speaking, he heard a voice suddenly say loudly from outside the hospital, "Huang Weisheng, the Golden Leopard of Sanhu Hall, came to pay homage to Mr. Zhang..."
