Shopkeeper Huang knew that in addition to rare treasures, the official also liked beautiful women. After shopkeeper Huang met Lan'er, he felt that Lan'er had a fairy-like appearance and a fresh and refined temperament, so he came up with this idea.
After hearing this, Lin Feng asked, "Why didn't he let you send us directly there?"
Luffy said: "Brother Lin, they knew that the escort agency would not do such a thing, so they asked like that. After all, their goods were destroyed in the hands of the escort agency, and we are the first to take responsibility for the loss."
Lin Feng immediately turned around and asked Deng Wei, "What do you think, Chief Bodyguard?"
Deng Wei said awkwardly: "Young Master Lin, I don't want Miss Zhang to agree. But the Escort Bureau is in the wrong and does not have that much money to compensate the salt bank. The Escort Bureau is really unable to face the cooperation between the bank and the salt bank. Once it is handled improperly, the Escort Bureau will I am afraid of being destroyed, but I am really helpless."
Lin Feng said: "Chief escort, there is no need to be embarrassed. This is easy to handle. We will leave the escort agency early tomorrow morning. Whatever tricks they have, we will follow up, or we will die! Senior, let's say goodbye!"
Lin Feng and Lan'er immediately left the hall, leaving Deng Wei and others looking at each other. Lin Feng and Lan'er returned to the backyard and saw Deng Dan and a beautiful maid standing in the yard.
Deng Dan was dressed in fine clothes, carrying a sword on his back and holding a sword in his hand. Judging from her attire, she seemed to be going on a long trip.
When Deng Dan saw the two of them, he came up to them and said, "Young Master Lin, Miss Zhang."
Lin Feng responded: "Miss Deng, what's the matter?"
Deng Dan looked at Lin Feng, then held up the sword in his hand and said: "Young Master Lin, I see that you only have a jade flute with you. I guess that is your weapon. I have a sword here that can cut iron as well as mud, for you to use. .”
Lin Feng felt baffled. Why did she suddenly think of giving him a sword? Could it be that Mr. Deng, the bodyguard, wanted to make some compensation because of his guilt?
Lin Feng asked in confusion: "Miss Deng, what does this mean?"
Deng Dan smiled slightly and said, "I already know about your affairs. I had an argument with my father just now and asked him to ignore the bank and salt store. But he and his senior brother were too concerned about the safety of the escort agency and were unwilling to fall out with them directly. . I think the bank and the salt store will be waiting for you outside tomorrow, and you will definitely face a fierce battle. If you don’t have a good weapon, it may be difficult for you to cope. "
Lin Feng said quickly: "Miss Deng, your father and Brother Lu are also thinking about the escort agency, so you can't blame them. As for the sword, I accept the lady's kindness with heart. I will not accept it without merit."
Deng Dan said unhappily: "Why? Are you afraid that I will also have any special requirements for you? Don't worry, I can't stand the tyranny and bullying of the bank and the salt store, so I decided to help you. I have no other purpose. "
Lin Feng said, "Miss Deng, you'd better leave this matter alone so as not to embarrass your father. I don't want your father and daughter to be at odds because of this matter."
Deng Dan said coldly: "I don't care about that much. If they don't want to help you, I will try my best to help. You take the sword first, and I will lend it to you. When you get out of danger, return it to me."
Lan'er guessed that there would be trouble tomorrow and also advised: "Brother, the eldest lady also has good intentions, just accept it!"
Lin Feng still hesitated and asked Deng Dan: "Why do you insist on helping us?"
Deng Dan said: "Didn't you say that I have a chivalrous spirit? Of course I will not live up to your praise. No more, I will go to Nanyang overnight to ask my uncle to help you. Once he arrives, he will be able to protect you You're safe and sound. You have to wait until I come back before you can go out. If I can't make it in time, you have this lightning sword and you should be able to hold on until we get there!"
After Deng Dan finished speaking, he handed the sword to Lin Feng. Lin Feng stopped refusing, took the sword, and asked: "Miss Deng, you gave me the sword, so what do you use it for? It's not safe to travel at night, so I'd better go with you!"
Deng Dan said: "What I carry on my back is the Flashing Wind Sword, which is also a sword, just like the Lightning Sword. I will tell you about my uncle later."
At this moment, a handsome maid came in and said to Deng Dan: "Miss, the horses are ready."
Deng Dan nodded and said to the maid next to him: "Hong'er, you stay here and take care of Miss Zhang." Then he said to the maid who just came in: "Qing'er, come with me!" The two maids agreed in unison. .
Lan'er said: "Miss Deng, if you want to go on a night journey, you'd better let them all accompany you. More people means more effort. I'm safe here and don't need anyone to take care of me."
Deng Dan said: "I will be fine. The banker cares about you. They will not care about me, otherwise I will not be polite even if they are unreasonable. You are a girl, and Lin Shaoxia is a man after all, so it is somewhat inconvenient. . If anything happens, Hong'er can help you. Although her martial arts skills are not high, she can still deal with some ordinary guards and servants. "
Deng Dan said as he walked, and soon arrived outside the door. She jumped on her horse and hurried away with Qing'er. Lin Feng watched them leave and returned to the courtyard.
Lan'er suddenly said: "Brother Lin, tomorrow will be very dangerous. How about you teach me some martial arts now? Maybe I can help you tomorrow."
Lin Feng thought for a moment and said, "Let's talk after we go in." He turned to the pretty girl standing aside and asked, "My name is Hong'er?"
Hong'er bowed her hands and responded, "My maid, Hong'er, has met Shaoxia Lin and Miss Zhang."
Lin Feng said: "Miss Hong'er, just go and do your own business, we don't need anyone to take care of you."
Hong'er shook her head and said, "Miss, please tell me that I can't leave you. I'm just walking around the courtyard. If you need anything, please tell me."
Lin Fenghong'er was resolute, and it seemed that persuasion was of no use, so she had no choice but to say: "Well, then it's time to work."
Lin Feng then entered the room with Lan'er, took out a pill, and said to Lan'er: "I don't have the ability to teach you high-level martial arts overnight. However, this pill can increase your physical strength. Then , I will teach you a few more self-defense techniques."
Lan'er was overjoyed. She took the pill and was about to take it. Lin Feng hurriedly shouted: "Wait a minute, sit down on the bed first and then eat."
Lin Feng taught Lan'er how to adjust her luck after eating. Lan'er has excellent understanding and quickly masters the method of luck. Lin Feng nodded and signaled Lan'er to take the pills. Lan'er sat down on the bed, took the pills, closed her eyes and lucked out. Lin Feng put his hands on her back, hoping to help her.
After about a cup of tea, Lan'er opened her eyes and said in surprise: "Brother, these pills really work, I feel full of energy! Why don't you give me a few more pills."
Lin Feng saw Lan'er's face rosy and full of joy, and her already pretty face looked even more stunningly beautiful. This was also the first time Lan'er smiled since Zhang An's death.
Lin Feng looked a little dumbfounded, and then he smiled and said: "You think you are going to eat? This pill is made by my master who collected many precious herbs and painstakingly refined them for several months. It is an elixir used to treat internal injuries. It cannot be used in the first place. I’m giving it to you, because you haven’t practiced internal strength before, so you’re afraid it might have bad effects. Things are urgent now, so we have to do this. If you feel uncomfortable in any way, you must tell me.”
Lan'er made a strange face and said playfully: "Yes, brother. I just said a few words, and you nagged me for a long time. Can you teach me martial arts now?"
Lin Feng was embarrassed by what she said, so he could only nod and said: "Let's go to the courtyard to practice!" Lan'er was overjoyed and followed Lin Feng to the courtyard. Seeing this, Hong'er came over and stood aside.
Lin Feng took off the green jade flute from his waist and said to Lan'er: "Lan'er, this jade flute is a weapon specially made for me by my master. It is very hard and cannot be damaged even by a sword. I will give it to you for self-defense tomorrow. , as long as there is a weapon coming at you, just use it to block it."
Lan'er took the jade flute, looked at it carefully, and said, "No wonder I don't see you playing. It turns out to be a weapon."
Lin Feng smiled and said: "I can play it normally, but I haven't been in such a mood recently. I will play it for you when I have time in the future."
Lan'er nodded, picked up the jade flute and put it in her mouth. The melodious flute sound sounded, full of sadness and indignation.
Lin Feng didn't expect Lan'er to play so well, so he couldn't bear to dampen her interest, so he let her play. He pulled out the Lightning Sword, but saw that the sword was purple and red, and there was a cold air coming from the blade. It was indeed a peerless sword. Lin Feng waved his hand casually, and the sword shadow suddenly flashed.
Lin Feng quietly asked Hong'er, "Girl, is your young lady really carrying the same sword as this one?"
Hong'er quickly said: "Young Master Lin, you should just call me by my name. Don't call me girl or girl. It's so awkward. You don't know something. The Lightning Sword and the Flash Wind Sword are both swords refined by a previous emperor. Listen to Mr. The chief escort said that the emperor had refined six such swords in total. The chief escort spent a lot of money to buy them back. Now the two swords Baili and Baihong are in the hands of the young master, and the two swords Lightning and Flash are in the hands of the young master. I passed it on to the young lady. The chief escort uses it to ward off evil spirits, and the madam uses meteors."
Lin Feng said: "I didn't expect this sword to have such a great background!" At this time, Lan'er also finished playing and said: "Brother, it's time for you to teach me!"
Upon hearing this, Hong'er quickly said, "You guys are busy, I'll go to the room and wait."
Lin Feng knew that Hong'er wanted to avoid suspicion. When people in the martial arts were taught martial arts, they didn't want outsiders to be present.
Lin Feng said quickly: "There is no need to avoid it. I just taught her a few simple self-defense techniques to prepare for tomorrow. It is not about teaching martial arts. Just now, Miss Deng said that you are good at martial arts, and you can give her some pointers."
Hong'er said: "How dare you talk about giving me advice with your humble skills? If you are willing, young hero, you can give me some tips."
Lin Feng said: "Then let's learn from each other." He turned to Lan'er and said: "Lan'er, look carefully!" After saying that, Lin Feng slowly waved his sword and used block, block, block, tease and smash in succession. Five simple moves.
Lan'er watched and waved the flute. After all, Hong'er was good at martial arts and knew these simple movements naturally, so she also gave Lan'er careful guidance.
After a while, Lan'er basically mastered it. Lin Feng was a little surprised. Lan'er's understanding was far beyond his expectation. Lin Feng secretly thought that Lan'er was a martial arts prodigy, and given time, the future would be immeasurable.
Just as he was thinking about it, Lan'er suddenly asked him: "Brother, why are you always blocking and blocking? How to defeat the opponent?" Hong'er also felt strange and said: "Young Master Lin, what you teach is indeed ordinary defense. Trick!”
