Chapter 124 Robbery (1)
Chapter 124: Killing (1)
How could the people in Huanxi Villa know about these things that happened in the distance? They were talking happily about what had just happened, thinking about the mighty style of Shiniu, and deeply envious. Many people secretly made up their minds to return to the sect and work harder to make it more powerful in the future.
Only Shiniu still drove forward steadily as before, and seemed to be unaware of being regarded as an idol by others. Fortunately, he had just passed the so-called war and was not in the mood to sing his specialty songs at the top of his voice. Otherwise, the image he had just established in the hearts of everyone might collapse immediately.
Of course, not all the people in the villa were happy, not all the same as calm as water. The only person who was unhappy was He Tianshu.
He Tianshu cannot be said to be particularly outstanding among the disciples of the Piaomiao Sect, but he is also a leader. Although he was "exiled" to Huanxi Villa for the Chinese medicine field, his martial arts are still there, so how could he be the captain? He knew that there was a gap between him and Shiniu, but he still didn't know how much the gap was. Now it seems that he has been fighting with others for a long time but still has no choice but to have enough strength. But Shiniu, when he competed with his boss, knocked the other party away with just one palm, and vomited blood. Now it seems that the gap between him and Shiniu is not a little bit. It seems that he was really arrogant before.
In the future, I will still have a long way to go.
There is another one here that is not very similar to everyone, and the other is the heartless Zhang Xiaohua. This guy has not learned martial arts very systematically, so he naturally does not know the difficulties. Especially when he saw Shiniu knocking the strong man away with one palm, he seemed to think of his previous experience and immediately lost interest. So when others were discussing, he had already picked up the book silently and looked at himself.
He even didn't pay attention to He Tianshu's self-deprecation.
The matter of the calamity is like the waves in the river, which disappears after a flip. It soon becomes a joke for everyone after dinner. Even when there are disciples of the Piaomiao Sect to pick them up, they just mention it as a pastime.
However, as the listener was unintentional, Lan Dong, a disciple of the Piaomiao Sect in this small town, was a careful person. After hearing this, he felt that it was not very right. The people in Huanxi Villa didn't know it. That was normal. After all, they came from other places and they were operating here for several years. Why haven't they heard of any bandits who have robbeds? And they are just ordinary people?
Xiao Jiujiu immediately started to fight in his heart, but he couldn't tell Ou Yan and the others these thoughts openly. After all, they had asserted that these were just a group of stupid thieves. Besides, they couldn't guarantee that such a group of bandits would emerge when he was not paying attention.
All he could do was write a note of his thoughts and report it to his leaders to make decisions. He also believed that as long as his leaders saw the news about Ou Zhuangzhu, they would immediately report it to the senior executives in the delegation, and they would not dare to delay.
After the news came out, he felt a little relieved. What he had to do next was to find an opportunity to explain to Ou Manor or Shiniu and others to be vigilant.
However, when he told Ou Yan and others about these situations, it was not beyond his expectations. Ou Yan and Shi Niu did not take it seriously. Only Aunt Qin frowned slightly and wanted to say something, but looking at Ou Yan's firm eyes, she shut up. She knew that Ou Yan was determined to go back to Chungu, and she would not believe anything she said at this time.
But, after all, who would know about this Ou Yan going back to Chungu?
Even if someone knows, what reason do they have to stop it?
Are they full?
Seeing that his words did not attract attention, Lan Dong stopped talking. However, when Ou Yan left, he proposed to send his disciples to a trip, but he was rejected because there were not many disciples of the Piaomiao Sect in the town, and his martial arts were of ordinary disciples. Only Lan Dong was so comfortable, but he could not leave the town for a long time. Unless he went to escort, it was meaningful, and others were all doing their best.
Ou Yan rejected Lan Dong's kindness because he did not want to affect the daily operations of the Piaomiao Sect.
So the group drove the carriage and horses again and walked forward, while Lan Dong returned to the town and continued to make his daily life.
It was not until the evening of the second day after Ou Yan and the others left that news came from the Piaomiao Sect. When Lan Dong opened the note from the carrier pigeon, his face changed drastically. He saw that it read: "Piaomiao Villa has sent an elder to support him. When he received the news, he immediately sent all his strength to protect the safety of the owner. The power of the Piaomiao Sect along the way is all about the safety of the owner."
Lan Dong couldn't help but complain. It was two days and one night before Ou Yan and the others left. Who knew what happened? He quickly wrote the situation briefly again, released the pigeon, and sent news to the disciples of the Piaomiao Sect in the next town. However, this place was no longer the sphere of influence of the Piaomiao Sect. The human resources of the Piaomiao Sect were widely distributed, and the other town was not very far from here. Whether it could catch up with this matter is still a question. Only by sending the message first.
After finishing these things, Lan Dong immediately summoned all the disciples of the Piaomiao Sect in the town, rode a horse, and followed Ou Yan and the others' route, and chased them all the way.
Ou Yan and his group bid farewell to the disciples of the Piaomiao Sect such as Lan Dong, and continued to move forward according to the planned route. However, after the farce of robbery, they became more and more vigilant. When they encountered some suspected places, they sent people to inquire before passing. In this way, after a few days, there was no accident. So everyone's hearts were gradually let go.
In fact, as far as they are concerned, the robbery and killing in the world are really nothing. Shiniu and Aunt Qin, either, had passed through the bloody storm? It was just that this time there was obviously insufficient manpower and Ou Yan had to protect him, so he had to think twice before doing anything and dared not make any mistakes.
I walked forward for three more days. On the evening of the day, the sun sets and the dusk is deep. I saw that I had arrived at a place where I was not in front of the village and the shops behind me. Looking at the map, it was still far from the next market town. I guess I would have to sleep in the wild tonight, so Aunt Qin quickly ordered Shiniu to walk along the way and find a place to rest.
When the sky gradually darkened, the carriage finally walked to a small river. There was a spacious open space by the river, and a tent could be set up, so everyone stopped the carriage, took all the things off the carriage, and prepared to sleep here at night.
Although camping, burying pots and other things have nothing to do with Zhang Xiaohua, Zhang Xiaohua is very harmonious with everyone during this period of time, so why wouldn’t she help? Not to mention anything else, Zhang Xiaohua has a lot of strength, helping all the male and female disciples move things, build tents, etc., and they are busy, making everyone like this diligent child more and more. When everyone finishes their work, it is already dark, and everyone has their own division of labor. The male disciples are guarding around, and the female disciples live and cook with some people in the villa, and only Zhang Xiaohua is left alone.
Zhang Xiaohua looked at it before eating, so she looked up and looked around. She saw a dark area not far away, which seemed to be a small wood. She felt moved. It would be better to take this time to pick up some firewood in the woods and do today's homework together.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaohua got up and was about to walk out. As soon as she walked a few steps, she heard someone calling him. When she turned around, she found that it was Qiutong, and there were Ou Yan and Aunt Qin next to her.
Zhang Xiaohua quickly stopped, smiled and bowed to them, greeted them separately, and then Qiu Tong asked, "Zhang Xiaohua, you seem to be going out?"
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "I think it's still early to eat, so I want to go to the woods over there to find some firewood to wait for it to be useful in the evening."
Qiutong said: "What a good boy, I still know how to pick up firewood."
Zhang Xiaohua quickly said modestly: "It's nothing, Sister Qiutong, this I often do at home."
At this time, Ou Yan asked, "After picking up the firewood, do you still need to practice some kung fu?"
Zhang Xiaohua was stunned and asked, "Sister Ou, how did you know?"
Ou Yan smiled and said, "All the way you go out to find a place to practice kung fu every morning and evening. How could you hide it from us? However, Zhang Xiaohua, you are really beyond our expectations. You are very diligent. He Tianshu also said that you read books every day, and I borrow your books, and you have read a lot."
Zhang Xiaohua's face turned red and she said embarrassedly: "Sister Ou, I have no choice but to learn a little bit of boxing. I am afraid that I can't practice well. I can only do it myself secretly and that sword move, which is also taught by Professor Yu. I won't let others know. I am also afraid that I will forget it, so I have to avoid others."
Ou Yan laughed and said, "I don't mean to blame you, I just admire your diligence. I naturally know about Yu Lao's swordsmanship. Even if you practice, it's the same as before. Others didn't actually peek at you. Seeing that you are so brave, when this matter is over, I will advise my brother to see if you have a good opportunity."
Who is Ou Yan’s brother? That’s the leader of the Piaomiao Sect. Just a word can fulfill Zhang Xiaohua’s dream. At this time, Zhang Xiaohua didn’t believe her ears very much and was stunned.
Seeing Zhang Xiaohua's stupid look, Qiutong whispered: "Zhang Xiaohua, why don't you thank you Miss?"
Zhang Xiaohua woke up from a dream, with an excited look on her face and said happily: "Thank you, Sister Ou, if I have the opportunity, I will definitely practice martial arts well."
Ou Yan said: "Zhang Xiaohua, you don't have to be too happy too early. I will only talk about whether it can be successful or not depends on yourself."
Zhang Xiaohua said: "It's enough to have this opportunity. Sister Ou, I will definitely try my best to strive for it. Oh, by the way, there is another thing that I don't know if it's to talk about or not."
Ou Yanqi said: "What else is there? Tell me."
Zhang Xiaohua said embarrassedly: "Well, Captain He also wants to read the books you borrowed from me. Can you read them?"
Ou Yan was happy and said, "It doesn't matter. He Tianshu is not an outsider. The people in the Pharmacy Hall want to learn the art of planting. As long as he doesn't spread the word, by the way, don't damage my book, otherwise he won't let him read it."
Zhang Xiaohua felt relieved. Since He Tianshu gave him a small sword, he had been trying to find an opportunity to tell Ou Yan about He Tianshu's reading, but along the way, there was no good opportunity. Today, I always have a moment of thought, and I couldn't help but feel relaxed. The ancients said that they were good, and they were short of their hands and short-spoken, and they would not bully them.
At this moment, a nice voice sounded: "Zhang Xiaohua, how has your right hand recovered? Is it okay to hold a sword?"
Zhang Xiaohua looked at Aunt Qin gratefully and said, "Sister Qin, thank you for your concern. Fortunately, I recovered very quickly now and I can hold the sword, but I am not flexible yet."
Aunt Qin said, "It is really a big flaw of Xi Jian. You can practice hard and pay attention to moderation. Don't overwork and hurt your fingers, but it's not good."
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "I know, I have been doing restorative exercises all the time. When it hurts, I will stop immediately."
The four of them said a few more words, and Zhang Xiaohua then said goodbye. However, after just a few steps, Ou Yan reminded him later: "Zhang Xiaohua, don't go too far. Come back early after practice. There may be a storm tonight."
When Zhang Xiaohua heard this, she looked up at the sky. Sure enough, the sky was gloomy and the stars that were as bright as pearls on weekdays were faint, and even the full moon was gone.
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "I understand, Sister Ou, I'll go back after I finish practicing, and I'm still waiting for dinner."
After saying that, he waved to the three of them and walked towards the dark place alone.
After Zhang Xiaohua walked to that place, she realized that it was not a forest, but a small hill that could not be picked up by firewood, but it did not delay him from practicing boxing.
So, Zhang Xiaohua first took out his beloved small sword and practiced the sword move easily. After many days of practice, this sword move is even more diligent. It is different from the first time he used a small sword to poke a big hole in the bamboo. During this period, Zhang Xiaohua mainly practiced controlling the strength of the small sword. Now this force is very exquisite. When the force is large, he can easily pierce out a large hole in front of him, such as a stone or a big tree. If the force is small, he can gently click on the big tree at the same speed, leaving only a slight small dot. This is also a little trick that Zhang Xiaohua has figured out after practicing the sword moves himself.
Ou Yan was right. After Zhang Xiaohua had just practiced his Beidou Shenfu nine times, the familiar cold stream swam all over his body, and the drops of raindrops dripped down. Since today's homework was over, Zhang Xiaohua naturally stopped staying and ran back to the camp. But halfway through, he suddenly felt a strange feeling and couldn't help but stop, allowing the raindrops to drip on him more and more densely. But when he calmed down and listened carefully, except for the bonfire in the villa ahead, everyone's rapid pace, and the shouting "It's raining, collecting clothes", there seemed to be no other movement. The sound of raindrops falling, either dull or crisp, concealing other movements in the world.
The rain was getting heavier and Zhang Xiaohua didn't dare to stay for too long and rushed back to the camp.
On the hill where he had just practiced boxing, a man wearing a night-dressed dress and covered with a headband quietly poked his head out, looked at his back coldly, and then looked at the night sky with rain. He smiled with satisfaction, and leaned over and used his light skills to go away.
Zhang Xiaohua ran into the camp and was in a mess. The rain was falling too quickly. Although everyone was ready, they were still busy by the heavy rain. When everyone was packing everything, the heavy rain had already poured down like running water.
Zhang Xiaohua was in the same tent as He Tianshu. When he came in, He Tianshu had already packed up all his things and said with a smile: "I've gone to practice boxing again? I've poured some soup."
Then, he handed him a dry towel, and Zhang Xiaohua smiled and answered, "It started to start when practicing boxing. The rain was used to help them clean up their things."
Then, Zhang Xiaohua wiped the rainwater from her head with a dry towel, and then she remembered and said, "I just met the owner of the manor. She said she agreed to read her book, but it cannot be spread or broken the book."
He Tianshu said: "Then I thank you, Xiaohua."
Zhang Xiaohua was surprised and said, "Do you tell me differently from the owner of the manor? Why do you still have to tell me about it for you? You can see it every day. I have been delayed for several days before I saw the owner of the manor today."
He Tianshu said awkwardly: "Well, you are still young and don't understand it very much. After all, the owner of Mansion Ou is the owner of Huanxi Villa, and I am a disciple of the Piaomiao School's Pharmacy Hall. I'm afraid it's inappropriate to mention it rashly."
Zhang Xiaohua nodded as if she understood, and then thought of something, saying, "By the way, I want to thank Captain He for his beautiful words in front of the owner of the manor. The owner of the manor said that when he went back to this matter, he would find an opportunity to talk to the leader of the Ou, so that I could learn martial arts."
"Ah? Really?" He Tianshu asked back, as if he didn't believe it, "The owner of the manor really told you that?"
"Yes!" Zhang Xiaohua also nodded happily.
He Tianshu smiled and said, "What I said about you is just a matter of seeking truth from facts. If you can get the favor of the owner, it is your opportunity. If you find an opportunity in the future, you must repay the owner well."
Zhang Xiaohua said: "That's right, I will definitely do it. The owner of the manor is like my sister, and I will definitely repay you."
He Tianshu said again: "However, practicing martial arts depends on opportunities. Your health is not good yet. Even if you practice martial arts, you may not be successful. You must be prepared. Moreover, there are many disciples in the Piaomiao Sect who think you are so diligent. You are just in Huanxi Villa. Compared with Ma Jing and the others, you seem very hardworking and you have to work harder in the future."
Zhang Xiaohua's face turned aside and said, "I know, Captain He, you are all very nice to me, I will definitely work hard to practice martial arts."
He Tianshu smiled, walked up, patted his shoulder, and said, "When I was young, I was as passionate as you, do it well, I'll take good care of you~"
Then, he frowned and said, "It's raining so hard, our camp is still by the river. There will be no danger in the middle of the night, right? I have to go and discuss it with Shiniu and the others. Zhang Xiaohua, you have to rest early."
Just as they were talking, suddenly, outside the tent, a dense sound of horse hooves seemed to be heard again in the rushing rain. He Tianshu and Zhang Xiaohua looked at each other alertly and walked out of the tent at the same time.
