Chapter 1152

Zhang Xiaohua was sweating profusely when she heard the bandits' hilarious cries for help. She stroked her chin and laughed. "Gentlemen, if you're begging for mercy, you should at least come up with a more sincere reason. This is the first time I've heard of a four-year-old mother and a seventy-two-year-old child!"

Everyone came to a sudden realization. They knelt down with strange expressions and stole glances at Zhang Xiaohua's emotions.

Escort Leader Yuan dismounted from his horse and walked briskly to Zhang Xiaohua. He cupped his fists and said, "Gentleman … Thank you for your help!"

"Mm, Escort Leader Yuan. Hehe, I haven't seen you in a few years, and you've become an escort leader?" Escort Leader Yuan was stunned. He looked up and exclaimed, "Zhang …"

However, he immediately shook his head and said sincerely, "Although you look quite similar to an old acquaintance of mine, I … dare not recognize you."

Zhang Xiaohua waved her hand. "Let's not talk about this for now. Yuan Changqing, take care of these bandits first. I know the rules of your escort agency, and I have no intention of breaking them. However, since they've already boasted, let's make them suffer!"

"Huh?

You … You're really … "Yuan Changqing was about to call out her name in shock.

Zhang Xiaohua hurriedly waved her hand again. She had only taken care of a few bandits because she had heard them say that Zhang Xiaohu's Misty School was inferior to the Righteous Alliance. However, it was a hindrance to his identity as an immortal cultivator. If others were to find out, they would ridicule him for no reason. There was indeed nothing to be proud of.

"Oh right, there are three carriages about ten li behind us. Send someone to pick them up!"

"Yes, I'll do so right away."

Yuan Changqing was naturally very respectful now that he knew of Zhang Xiaohua's identity. He was the younger brother of the Misty School's sect master. His martial arts skills aside, just this title alone was worthy of his respect.

The two young men who weren't escorts were curious as they watched the two of them talk. However, they knew that this wasn't the place to talk, so they didn't approach them.

Yuan Changqing walked up to the ten Fort Masters who had just stood up. Their faces were covered in dust and their expressions were perturbed. They didn't know what to do. Yuan Changqing cupped his hands and said, "Fort Master Bian, I'm really sorry to have startled you. This … this little brother is a disciple of my Misty School. He just happened to pass by here. Hehe, he happened to hear Fort Master's speech, so he couldn't help but intervene!"

Soon after, he turned his head and glanced at Zhang Xiaohua, who was casually holding a copper rod in her hand. He smiled again and said, "Of course, my little brother from the Misty School is inexperienced in the jianghu. His actions were ruthless and broke the rules of the underworld. I, Yuan, hereby apologize to Stockade Master Bian. My Lotus Escort Agency will compensate for these dozen or so fine steeds, and this time, my little brother's fee for borrowing the road will not be small …"

When Stockade Master Bian heard this, his face turned red and he shouted, "Escort Leader Yuan, are you … looking down on me?

What are these dozen or so horses?

Could it be worth one of Bian's lives?

Besides, when have I ever gone back on my words?

I've already said that as long as someone from your Lotus Escort Agency can defeat all of my brothers, not to mention this time, I won't take a single cent from you for all of your escorts in the future!

Do you want me to become someone who goes back on my words? "

Yuan Changqing thought to himself, "Didn't I want you to say this?"

His face was still hesitant. "But this little brother isn't a member of my Lotus Escort Agency. He's from the Misty School …"

"Alright, Escort Leader Yuan, we're all people of the jianghu. How can we go back on our words? Otherwise, before you've even walked three li, the spittle of the jianghu will drown me. Lotus Escort Agency and Misty School, aren't they one?

If everyone doesn't give face to the Misty School, how can your Lotus Escort Agency walk the jianghu? "

As he spoke, he stole a glance at Zhang Xiaohua. He pulled on Yuan Changqing's sleeve and said in a low voice, "This … who is Shaoxia?

How come I've never heard of him?

His martial arts … tsk tsk, I'm afraid he's stronger than ten of you, Escort Leader Yuan?

Can … can you introduce me to him? "

"Fort Master Bian, it's not that I don't want to agree, but this little brother … is indeed a little god of plague from the Misty School. Didn't you see?

Just now, the dozen or so horses were all smashed to death. If it were someone else … who would do that?

If you get to know him, and he passes by here in the future, looking for you for no reason, if he's unhappy … who do you think will be unlucky? "

Fort Master Bian shrunk his neck and shivered. He said in a low voice, "Then … I won't stay any longer. Brother, I'll accept your kindness. The next time I come, I'll definitely … meet you on the mountain!"

"Definitely, definitely. Fort Master Bian?

You … take care? "

"Alright, Brother Yuan. Don't worry, I'll be friends with you for the next few days on the road. This time … no one will stop you."

Yuan Changqing was overjoyed. He cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Fort Master Bian!"

Fort Master Bian stood up and reorganized his troops. He cupped his fists at Zhang Xiaohua and said, "The green hills never change, and the clear waters flow forever. I'm not your match today, but if there's a chance in the future, I'll come and learn from you!"

Zhang Xiaohua had heard Stockade Chief Bian's words the last time he passed by this place. When he heard it, he could not help but want to laugh again. Zhang Xiaohua suppressed his laughter and waved his hand, indicating that Stockade Chief Bian could leave. Only then did Stockade Chief Bian relax. He waved his hand and left in a hurry with his defeated troops.

"Hehe, Escort Leader Yuan, you're really something. No wonder you're an escort leader!" Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile as soon as Fort Master Bian walked away.

"No, no, it's all thanks to Brother Zhang. If it weren't for Brother Zhang, I'm afraid we'd have to go through a lot of trouble today!"

"Hehe, it's not that bad!"

Zhang Xiaohua looked at the two disciples who wanted to say something and said, "With these two Senior Brothers here, nothing will happen."

"Hehe, by the way, Brother Zhang, let me introduce you. These two are disciples of the Misty School. This one's surname is Lu and his name is Da. This one's surname is Ke and his name is Nan Li."

Zhang Xiaohua cupped her fists and said, "Greetings, Senior Brother Lu and Senior Brother Ke."

"Hehe, I wouldn't dare. Greetings, Junior Brother Zhang. Junior Brother Zhang's cudgel technique is really amazing!

I'm really impressed … I heard that during the Martial Arts Assembly of the Incense Cult, there was someone called Ren Xiaoyao who also used a copper cudgel. He suppressed everyone and shocked the Jianghu. I'm afraid Junior Brother Zhang isn't any worse than him! "

"Eh?

The two Senior Brothers have also been to the Incense Cult? "Zhang Xiaohua asked curiously.

"Yes, the two of us came back from the Shixin Peak with Gang Leader Zhang. How could we not have been to the Incense Cult?

Did Brother Zhang come back to the Misty School with Elder Hu? I don't think you look familiar! "

Looking at the two people's expressions, Zhang Xiaohua also realized that although she had shown her face on the Shixin Peak, there were thousands of disciples of the Misty School on the Shixin Peak. How could she know all of them?

"I … I didn't come back to the Misty Mountain Villa with Elder Hu …" Zhang Xiaohua didn't know how to introduce herself!

Yuan Changqing next to them laughed and said, "Brother Lu, Brother Ke, you two are blind. Didn't you just say that you didn't complete the task given by Gang Leader Zhang and were afraid that you wouldn't be able to report back?

There is a ready-made Buddha in front of you. If you ask for help, I can guarantee that you will be fine! "

"Ah?"

The two people were shocked. They looked at Zhang Xiaohua carefully and asked curiously, "Junior Brother Zhang … What's the relationship … with Gang Leader Zhang?"

"Do you still need to ask?

They both have the surname Zhang. The little brother in front of you is Gang Leader Zhang's younger brother. If he helped you, wouldn't it be ten thousand times better? "

"Oh, Junior Brother … Zhang, my eyes are blind. It's really … Don't be offended. Gang Leader Zhang has never talked about his family, so I didn't expect him to have such a powerful younger brother. Don't blame me, don't blame me!"

Zhang Xiaohua laughed and said, "Don't blame me for not knowing!

Besides, what can I blame you for? "

"Haha, that's great, that's great!"

The two people were happy to see Zhang Xiaohua was amiable.

At this time, the people of the escort agency had already cleaned up the surroundings, arranged the carriage, and were ready to set off. It was just that Yuan Changqing had ordered several escorts to follow Zhang Xiaohua's instructions to look for Qu Zhigao and the others, so they waited quietly.

Seeing that the three carriages had not arrived yet, Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "I wonder what the two senior brothers are doing here?

Could it be that Gang Leader Zhang attaches great importance to it? "

"This …" Lu Da thought for a moment and said, "This matter is very confidential. I just want little brother to say a few good words in front of Gang Leader Zhang. As for the specific matter … little brother is not a disciple of the Misty School, and … Gang Leader Zhang also told me not to tell anyone, so …"

Zhang Xiaohua nodded and said, "Well, you guys are really reliable. Don't worry, when I go back, I'll talk to second brother. If it's not something extremely important, I'll let second brother go. I still have this bit of face!"

"It's nothing important, nothing important!" Ke Nanli next to him said, "It's just to pick up a few people?

It's just that you didn't find them! "

"Ah?"

Zhang Xiaohua was shocked. A strange expression appeared on her face. She whispered, "Senior Brothers, are you guys going to Dragon Mountain to look for someone?"

"Ah???"

Lu Da and Ke Nanli were even more surprised. They looked at each other and said in unison, "We … didn't slip up just now, right? Little brother … how did you know?"

"How would I know? I begged Second Brother to do this!" Zhang Xiaohua smiled bitterly and said, "You guys … went to Dragon Mountain to pick up Qu Zhigao?

Why … did you run here?

And you've been delayed for so long? "

After hearing Zhang Xiaohua's orders, the two no longer had any doubts. Lu Da looked at Ke Nanli and said, "Little brother, I'll let you know. It's not that we're slacking off.

"After Junior Brother Ke and I arrived at Horned Dragon Mountain, we couldn't find him no matter how hard we searched … Qu Zhigao spent a long time searching the entire Horned Dragon Mountain multiple times, but to no avail. Little brother, you should know that Sect Leader Zhang trusts us, which is why he told us to hide this matter from us. How can we face Sect Leader Zhang if we mess up the first time we do something?

So … "

"Therefore, I discussed with Senior Martial Brother Lu and wanted to search the towns around Dragon Mountain. However, we searched the towns near Dragon Mountain, and even the towns further away, such as Misty Rain Town and Poyang Town, but we still couldn't find a trace of them. So … we returned home and wanted to apologize to Sect Leader Zhang!"
