Chapter 1144

The Tan family's Misty Rain Town was close to Poyang Town, but it was far from Nanzhao Town. Li Jinfeng hesitated when he heard this, but … he couldn't bring Mei Qinglian back to her home in Lu Town, nor could he avenge her. He could only accompany Mei Qinglian all the way to the south!

There was a saying in ancient times, "A scholar is useless."

Li Jinfeng felt that this was wrong.

That day, Zhang Xiaohua accompanied Nie Qianyu from a thousand miles away. That was because Zhang Xiaohua knew martial arts and had the ability to protect himself and Nie Qianyu. That was already a chivalrous act.

But compared to Li Jinfeng, she was far inferior.

Li Jinfeng was only a weak scholar with a weak body. Going to Misty Rain Town alone was already a test for him, not to mention bringing Mei Qinglian along!

The hardships along the way couldn't be described in detail.

Li Jinfeng's bravery had already moved Mei Qinglian. But she knew her body's condition and her current situation, so she didn't dare to reveal her feelings. Moreover, the two talked along the way and didn't hide anything. They already knew each other well. Mei Qinglian also knew that Li Jinfeng already had a girl named Qiu Tong in his heart. But because fate made fools of people, this girl went to the south a few years ago. Now, it was unknown whether she was alive or dead.

Even Li Jinfeng didn't hesitate to tell Mei Qinglian that she was somewhat similar to Qiu Tong. And it was because of this similarity that he helped her so deeply.

Li Jinfeng's frankness didn't make Mei Qinglian angry. Instead, she appreciated Li Jinfeng even more. She felt that Li Jinfeng was a magnanimous gentleman!

The two went all the way to the south, carefully covering their tracks, thinking that they had escaped from Xi Cui Mountain.

But what they did not know was that this Xi Cui Mountain was not the same Xi Cui Mountain. That day, the horse carriage that they had taken from Nanzhao had been a galloping horse carriage. Some of the Righteous Alliance's disciples had already reported their whereabouts to the disciples sent by Xi Cui Mountain. As they fled for their lives, they had not been able to shake off the Righteous Alliance's pursuit.

It was not until they were near Misty Rain Town that Mei Qinglian found out that the Tan family had been exterminated several years ago that she began to panic. Then, Zhao Hong, who was following them, also felt that something was wrong. He knew that these two people were not looking for treasures, so he was about to show up and capture them. However, at this time, the news of their following also attracted the attention of the youngest Mei and Shopkeeper Liu. They stopped them and asked for details.

Li Jinfeng and Mei Qinglian took this opportunity to escape far away. They wanted to hide in the wilderness to avoid the pursuit of the Righteous Alliance. However, they were only ordinary people. How could they outrun the youngest Mei's Qing Gong expert?

It wasn't easy for them to run to this mountain temple, but they were still easily caught up. Mei Qinglian's body couldn't take it anymore as she had been drifting all this time. She was on the verge of death even before Old Mei interrogated her …

"Sigh, Young Master Li, I … really admire you!"

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua really didn't know what to say. Li Jinfeng couldn't even protect himself, yet he still wanted to protect a weak girl he didn't know. This … if Mei Qinglian didn't resemble Qiu Tong, Zhang Xiaohua wouldn't have been able to find a reason for Li Jinfeng to risk his life like this!

"There are things that a real man should do, and there are things that he shouldn't do.

Since I've encountered such an outrageous matter, even if I have to pay with my life, I'll still take care of it! "

"Even if she doesn't look like Elder Sister Qiu Tong at all?"

Li Jinfeng nodded without hesitation. "That's right!

If you don't care, I don't care, and no one else, then how can there be justice and conscience in this world? "

"Sigh, I've learned something, Young Master Li!"

Zhang Xiaohua suddenly felt that this Li Jinfeng wasn't just his teacher who taught him how to read, he also had a lot to learn from him in terms of how to conduct himself in life.

"Oh yes, Young Master Li, I have something to tell you!"

"What is it?" Li Jinfeng asked, but then he realized something. "Is Xiao Hu … still alive?"

Zhang Xiaohua nodded and smiled. "Of course my second brother is alive, but I want to tell you something else!"

"Something else?"

Li Jinfeng was stunned, and then his face flushed red. He looked out of the window and said softly, "Qiu Tong … is she still alive?"

"Haha, yes!"

Zhang Xiaohua almost clapped her hands and laughed. "My second brother has returned to the Ethereal Heights in Ping Yang City, and Elder Sister Qiu Tong … has also returned to the Huan Xi Mountain Villa with Ou Yan. If you want to see her, you can go to the Huan Xi Mountain Villa!"

"Sigh ~" Li Jinfeng didn't feel happy when he heard this. Instead, he looked melancholy. After a while, seeing that Zhang Xiaohua didn't understand, he said, "I'm just a weak scholar. I'm hot-blooded, but I don't have the strength to truss a chicken. How can I be worthy of Qiu Tong?

I think Qiu Tong has already found a strong martial artist … I can only wish her well … "

"Young Master Li, look at how jealous you are. Didn't I tell you it's something to be happy about?

If Elder Sister Qiu Tong was already married, I wouldn't have told you.

She's still waiting to get married! "

"Forget it, forget it … After all, they're two different kinds of people. Why do we have to squeeze them together?" Li Jinfeng was still shy.

Zhang Xiaohua was a little angry. "You obviously like Qiu Tong, and you're willing to risk your life for Mei Qinglian, who looks like her. Then why didn't you tell Qiu Tong?

If … she doesn't like you, then so be it. But … what if she likes you too?

Won't you miss out on a marriage for nothing?

Will you have to bear a grudge for the rest of your life?

You … even if you go and see her again … you won't be wronged … for liking her! "

Zhang Xiaohua treated Li Jinfeng as her elder brother. She said everything in her heart. Then, she looked outside and smiled. "We've just arrived at Poyang Town. It's still very far from Ping Yang City. Think about it!"

Zhang Xiaohua had already entered Poyang Town three times. She was very familiar with it. She used her divine perception to scan the town. She didn't panic when she couldn't find any trace of Qu Zhigao. Qu Zhigao had been in the martial world for a long time. In addition, he had the experience of being plotted against previously. If he hid in Poyang Town, it wouldn't be easy for others to find him!

However, Zhang Xiaohua wasn't in a hurry. When Qu Jing was mentioned at Huan Xi Mountain Villa, he felt uneasy. After rescuing Li Jinfeng at the Mountain Deity Temple, he no longer had the same feeling. Perhaps his uneasiness wasn't because of Qu Jing, but because of Li Jinfeng!

But since that was the case, Qu Jing was safe and there was no need to worry too much!

Hence, Zhang Xiaohua found an inn and stayed there. She released her divine perception every day and searched around Poyang Town, hoping to find traces of Qu Zhigao.

Although he didn't know why Zhang Xiaohua came to Poyang Town, Li Jinfeng didn't ask much. After listening to Zhang Xiaohua's words these days, he thought deeply and didn't disturb Zhang Xiaohua.

Early in the morning, when Zhang Xiaohua released her divine perception, she saw Qu Zhigao quietly walking out of a low house on the east side of Poyang Town. He carried a bucket on his shoulder and seemed to be going outside to fetch water.

"Haha," Zhang Xiaohua laughed and said, "I knew that you would show up sooner or later!

Even if you don't come out to buy things, you can't not fetch water, right? "

Zhang Xiaohua called Li Jinfeng and went straight out of the inn to Qu Zhigao's small courtyard on the east side.

This was an extremely remote place. The walls of the courtyard weren't high and the house inside was low. Zhang Xiaohua walked to the door and didn't hold back. She shouted loudly, "Brother Qu … I'm here to find you!

Come out quickly! "

When Qu Zhigao heard the familiar voice, he quickly opened the door and stuck his head out. When he saw Zhang Xiaohua, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Ren Shaoxia … you … why are you here so soon?"

Zhang Xiaohua was stunned, "You … when did you think I would come?"

"Hehe, I thought you would come in two years!" Qu Zhigao said with a smile.

When Zhang Xiaohua just introduced Li Jinfeng to Qu Zhigao, a cheerful figure ran out from the small courtyard. When he saw Zhang Xiaohua, he immediately knelt down. It was Qu Jing. He even shouted, "Disciple greets master!"

This time, Zhang Xiaohua didn't refuse. She nodded and said, "Get up. Master came here specially to find you!"

Hearing the change in Zhang Xiaohua's tone, Qu Zhigao was overjoyed. At this time, Qu Zhigao's mother also came out. Qu Zhigao shouted, "Mother … Ren Shaoxia finally … accepted Jing as his disciple!"

"Really?

This … is true? "

When Qu Zhigao's mother heard this, she almost couldn't believe her ears. That day, Zhang Xiaohua only said to wait for the right time. But when would the time be right?

This was a big matter that she had always been brooding about. She never thought that just how long had it been?

Zhang Xiaohua actually relented!

"Ren Shaoxia … Could it be that he found the place to open the sect?" Qu Zhigao's mother probed.

"No … Not yet. Plans can't keep up with changes. The previous plans were all inappropriate. We still need to plan again."

Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "However, opening the sect is opening the sect. Accepting disciples is accepting disciples. I have already accepted six disciples. Qu Jing is the last one. My sect already has the Big Dipper Seven Star Lords!"

"Thank you Ren Shaoxia … No, thank you Immortal Master for your mercy. Quick, Jing, aren't you going to greet your Master?" Qu Zhigao's mother was so happy that she was about to cry.

"There's no need. Jing has already paid his respects. When the sect opens in the future, I'll let them do it again!" Zhang Xiaohua waved her hand and smiled.

Then, the group entered the courtyard. Qu Zhigao took out the tea and other things and said embarrassedly, "In order to avoid being harassed by others, I didn't dare to stay on Dragon Mountain anymore. That's why I brought my mother and Jing to move here.

This place is really simple and crude. I hope Immortal Master can understand! "

"Haha, it's okay!" Zhang Xiaohua waved her hand and said, "You can pack up and follow me to Ping Yang City!"

Qu Zhigao was overjoyed. He stood up and said, "I'll pack up right away. When will Immortal Master be leaving?"

"Oh, take your time. I still have some worldly affairs to attend to. However, I'll be back in a few days. Young Master Li is I's best friend. I'm afraid that something might happen to him if he stayed in the inn. So, I brought him here. Please take care of him!"

Li Jinfeng followed Zhang Xiaohua here. He felt as if he was floating in the clouds and didn't know what they were talking about. Now that he heard himself mentioned, he immediately cupped his hands and bowed. "Sorry for the trouble!"
