Chapter 149
Seeing that Zhang Xiaohua was so happy that she was a bit silly, Ou Yan smiled and said, "Yes, Zhang Xiaohua, my big brother has always been a man of his word. As long as you say it, he will definitely agree."
Zhang Xiaohua looked at Ou Yan, then looked at Ou Peng and asked, "Then, I'll say it."
Ou Peng nodded and said, "En, say it, I will definitely agree."
Zhang Xiaohua asked without hesitation, "En, then I'll have to ask Boss Ou to promise me one thing. Can you let my second brother, Zhang Xiaohua, enter the Misty School and become a disciple of the Misty School?"
"Ah?!" Ou Peng was very surprised.
"Eh!?" Ou Yan was also surprised.
"Wah!?" Everyone was also in an uproar.
"Bang!" He Tianshu fell to the ground.
Zhang Xiaohua saw Ou Peng's surprise and quickly explained, "My second brother's aptitude is very good. Although he's a bit old, he's really strong. He's now a bodyguard of the Lotus Flower Escort Agency. In the past, he practiced the Six Harmonies Fist and was stronger than the other escort agencies. Now that he's learned internal strength, he's definitely stronger.
Gang Leader Ou, please do me a favor and accept my second brother. "
Ou Peng saw that Zhang Xiaohua was acting shamelessly and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He asked, "Have you never thought of entering the Misty School?
You should think carefully. If I let your second brother become a disciple of the Misty School, you won't have this opportunity. "
Zhang Xiaohua still said without hesitation, "I've thought about it, but I think second brother is more suitable. Moreover, second brother is a bodyguard outside every day and his life is in danger at any time. It's not good if he doesn't have powerful martial arts. Therefore, although I really want to become a disciple of the Misty School, I'm still willing to give this opportunity to second brother."
When Ou Peng heard this, his complexion changed a little. A strange look flashed in his eyes as he turned his head to look at Ou Yan. Ou Yan's face was also full of emotion and surprise. Wasn't this situation similar to what Ou Peng had said when he had become Master's disciple?
The only difference was that Ou Peng was replaced by the current Zhang Xiaohua and Ou Yan was replaced by the current Zhang Xiaohu.
Ou Yan and Ou Peng looked at each other and exchanged glances. Ou Yan nodded.
Ou Peng smiled and said to Zhang Xiaohua, "Since I've already said it, as long as your request isn't outrageous, I'll agree to it. Cheng Yue, I'll agree to your request."
Beside him, Zhang Chengyue hurriedly said, "Your disciple is here."
Ou Peng ordered, "Send someone to call Zhang Xiaohu over."
Chengyue turned around and left.
Zhang Xiaohua saw this and let out a long sigh. Sect Leader Ou was indeed a man of his word.
Ou Peng saw this and said with a smile, "Zhang Xiaohua, don't worry. I said that I'll accept your second brother as a disciple of the Misty School, so I'll definitely do it. In a moment, when your second brother comes, I'll find him a master."
Zhang Xiaohua was overjoyed and quickly saluted. "Many thanks for Sect Leader Ou's help."
Ou Peng said apologetically, "I've already given this opportunity to your second brother, so I can't help you."
Zhang Xiaohua smiled... "Thank you for your kindness, Sect Leader. I know that my aptitude is very poor. If I enter the Misty School, I'll just be a burden to you. I'm more suited to grow herbs."
At this time, Ou Yan interrupted and said with a smile, "Zhang Xiaohua, since you gave this opportunity to your second brother, then I'll consider it as returning the favor of saving my life.
However, do you still remember the promise I made to you before the moon? "
When Zhang Xiaohua heard this, her eyes lit up and she said in disbelief, "Really?
Big Sister Ou, that still counts? "
In a hurry, she actually called Ou Yan 'Big Sister Ou Yan' in the hall. It had to be said that Zhang Xiaohua was really overjoyed.
Then, Ou Yan said to Ou Peng, "Big Brother, do you still remember what I told you? I saw Zhang Xiaohua practicing martial arts very hard, so I promised to ask you to allow her to practice the internal strength cultivation method of the Misty School. You see … …"
Ou Peng naturally knew about this matter. At that time, he didn't want to repay Zhang Xiaohua for saving his life, so he changed the promise to the Misty School. Now that Ou Yan mentioned it again, of course it was for the sake of the promise, but more importantly, it was to help Zhang Xiaohua. How could Ou Peng not know?
He glanced at He Tianshu who was standing in the hall and rolled his eyes. He smiled and said, "Since Yan 'er has this intention, then we might as well be a bit more generous."
He turned his head and said to Zhang Xiaohua, "Since we made this promise, how about this. Zhang Xiaohua, today I'll be generous again. You go to the library and pick an internal strength cultivation method. I'll let a disciple teach it to you. How about that?"
A big meat pie was smashed right onto Zhang Xiaohua's head!
Zhang Xiaohua was a bit dizzy from the hit. He stared blankly at Ou Peng and foolishly asked again, "This, is this real?"
Ou Peng smiled and said, "It's real, how could it not be real?"
Then he waved his hand and said to the eldest disciple Zhang Chengyue who had just returned, "Chengyue, bring Zhang Xiaohua to the library and let him pick an internal strength cultivation method."
Zhang Chengyue accepted the order and brought Zhang Xiaohua who was still doubting that he was still in a dream out.
The library was very close to the meeting hall and it didn't take long for them to arrive at the door. Since the library was called "library", it was naturally a building. Zhang Xiaohua followed Zhang Chengyue to this three storey high and heavily guarded building. He looked at the black plaque with golden words hanging in front of the building and his heart was filled with emotions. The wish that he had yearned for day and night was about to come true.
Zhang Chengyue looked at the extremely excited Zhang Xiaohua and kindly said, "Zhang Xiaohua, this is the library. It is divided into three storeys. The first storey contains fist techniques, leg techniques, sword techniques, and internal strength cultivation methods that are popular in Jianghu. The second storey contains things that are unique to our Misty School. The third storey contains our Misty School's and other top secret martial arts manuals from Jianghu.
Since the Sect Leader has allowed you to choose any internal strength cultivation method, he probably didn't limit you to the first or second storey. You can go to the third storey to take a look. However, I suggest that you choose from the second storey. The martial arts on the third storey can only be practiced by those with outstanding talent in Jianghu. I heard from Manor Head that your talent is limited. If you choose a top internal strength cultivation method, it will be difficult to learn and you will waste your time. Don't look at the cultivation methods on the third storey either. The Sect Leader has instructed the disciples in the sect to teach you so that you can practice our Misty School's unique cultivation methods. This is also his love for you and I hope you don't disappoint him.
Alright, I won't be going in. Once you're done choosing, just take out the ancient books. The ancient books here are all copied. You just need to take the ancient books and let the disciples at the entrance register them. Then, they will naturally replace the ancient books that you took. "
After he finished speaking, he stood at the door and motioned for Zhang Xiaohua to go in. Zhang Xiaohua looked at the library's door and then looked at Zhang Chengyue. She hesitantly said, "Then I'll go in."
Zhang Chengyue looked at Zhang Xiaohua and smiled, saying, "Quickly go in. I'll wait for you here."
Zhang Xiaohua also smiled and quickly ran in. Only Zhang Chengyue was left standing in front of the building with a smile.
As soon as Zhang Xiaohua entered the library, she saw that behind the door was a small room. Inside, there was a rather old disciple sitting there with his head down. There was a table in front of him with a brush, ink, paper, inkstone, and other things on the table. He must be a registered disciple. Zhang Xiaohua slowed her footsteps. Seeing that he was ignoring her, she then quickly walked in.
Zhang Xiaohua took a closer look and saw that the bookshelves were labeled with different labels such as "Fist Arts", "Sword Arts", "Neigong", etc. He walked to the bookshelves labeled with "Neigong" and took a quick look. He could not help but gasp. There were thousands of books on the bookshelves, maybe even tens of thousands. Zhang Xiaohua sighed. He had gone through so much trouble to find these Neigong manuals outside, but in the Ethereal Sect's library, these Neigong manuals that were rarely seen outside were placed there like cabbages for people to choose from. Zhang Xiaohua could not help but want to take a look, but he immediately thought of Zhang Chengyue's words. These Neigong manuals were just ordinary goods in the Jianghu. It was not easy for him to enter a treasure mountain, so how could he return empty-handed and pick up a piece of trash? Zhang Xiaohua could not help but want to take a look, but then he remembered Zhang Chengyue's words. These Neigong manuals were just ordinary goods in the Jianghu.
Thus, Zhang Xiaohua recomposed herself and looked around. She saw a wooden staircase beside a wall in the distance that led to the upper floor.
Zhang Xiaohua looked straight ahead and walked through the dazzling collection of neigong books. She walked straight to the front of the stairs and walked up.
When she reached the second floor, Zhang Xiaohua found that the hall was obviously much smaller than the first floor. The bookshelves were also much lower. However, the quality of the bookshelves was obviously much higher than the first floor. The neigong books were also placed in a different way. They were all carefully placed flat. There was not a trace of dust on the bookshelves and neigong books. It was obvious that they were often cleaned.
There were still labels on the bookshelves. Zhang Xiaohua strolled and searched. Finally, she found the bookshelf with neigong skills in the innermost part. This bookshelf was as tall as a person. It was divided into three floors, but it was very long. Looking carefully, there were thousands of neigong skills used by the Misty School. In the face of such a treasure, Zhang Xiaohua also had a headache. Which one should she take?
Zhang Xiaohua started reading the books carefully from one end of the bookshelf. He looked at the names one by one. Of course, he had never seen what an inner force cultivation method looked like. Naturally, he could only look at the names.
In fact, this person was also right. If there was only one neigong skill in front of Zhang Xiaohua, he certainly would not be picky. It did not matter if it was the neigong skill of the Misty School or the neigong skill of other gangs in Jianghu. As long as he could learn it, it was fine. Now that he had the opportunity to choose, he was naturally dazzled. Which one should he choose?
He kept asking himself. Right now, he had lost his usual calmness.
Luckily, his brain was enlightened by the "Shuo Wen Jie Zi". After looking at thousands of neigong skills, he only felt a little dizzy. Zhang Xiaohua, who could not make up his mind, was about to turn back and look again when he suddenly thought, What kind of mistake am I making? Any neigong skill in Jianghu would be snatched by people who would break their heads to get it. Why am I being so picky?
I'll just take any one.
Immediately, he laughed self-deprecatingly and was about to pick up the book closest to him. But just as his hand touched the book, he saw the stairs to the third floor from the corner of his eye. He could not help but have a thought. If the second floor already contained the neigong skills of the Misty School, then what would the top neigong skills books in Jianghu be like on the third floor?
Curiosity killed the cat. With this thought in mind, Zhang Xiaohua could no longer control his footsteps and involuntarily followed the stairs to the third floor.
Needless to say, the third floor was even smaller, and there were fewer bookshelves. Each bookshelf only had one layer, and there were different types of books on it. Some of them were made of ordinary paper, while others were made of fur. Zhang Xiaohua could not help but stare at them.
There were not many books on the third floor, so Zhang Xiaohua did not pay attention to the labels on the bookshelves. He looked at the names of the books one by one. The names of these martial arts, some were mysterious, some were ordinary. If they were placed in Jianghu, they would definitely cause a huge uproar. Unfortunately, the person watching was Zhang Xiaohua, so he could only play the lute to a cow.
Zhang Xiaohua had his fill of looking at the books on the third floor, but he also knew that none of these martial arts were suitable for him. Of course, he still remembered Zhang Xiaohua's words clearly. He was only looking at them to increase his experience. Greed was insatiable, like a snake trying to swallow an elephant. Zhang Xiaohua remembered this allusion by heart.
After he had his fill, he walked along the bookshelves. Suddenly, his eyes landed on the square table beside the bookshelves. There was a very ordinary small square box sitting quietly on the table. Zhang Xiaohua was stunned. What was this?
He looked around and did not see any other similar boxes. Was it the neigong skills inside?
Or was it a sword manual?
Zhang Xiaohua picked it up naturally.
At this moment, in Ping Yang City, Lotus Flower Escort Agency.
When the crowd heard that a Misty School disciple had come to the escort agency to look for Zhang Xiaohu, they were all shocked. They all looked at Zhang Xiaohu, who was standing there in a daze.
When the Misty School disciple in martial attire walked in front of Zhang Xiaohu, as if he had just woken up from a dream, he hurriedly bowed and said, "I am Zhang Xiaohu. May I know why you are here?"
The Misty School disciple was cultured and refined. He smiled and said, "I don't know the details. I am only here on Eldest Senior Brother's orders to invite you over. I heard that our Sect Leader Ou is looking for you personally."
When the confused Zhang Xiaohu heard this, he felt as if he had fallen into the clouds. He did not know who this Eldest Senior Brother was, but how could he not know who Sect Leader Ou was?
This was a character that he could not even dream of. Why would he suddenly look for him?
Seeing that the dumbstruck Zhang Xiaohu was still hesitating, Qiu Tong, who was standing in front, became anxious. She walked forward and said, "Zhang Xiaohu, no matter what the matter is, since Sect Leader Ou is looking for you, you had better hurry over. Won't you know everything once you get there?"
The Misty School disciple seemed to know Qiu Tong. He smiled and said, "Sister Qiu Tong is right. Zhang Xiaohu, you had better hurry over with me. If you make Sect Leader wait anxiously, you and I will not be able to bear the consequences."
As if he had just woken up from a dream, Zhang Xiaohu nodded his head like a chick pecking at rice. He followed the disciple and quickly walked out of the small courtyard. He swung the stirrups and mounted his horse, galloping away.
When the two were far away, the crowd finally regained their senses. Fourth Master Wen smiled apologetically and said to Qiu Tong, "Miss Qiu Tong, we have known each other for many years. This Lotus Flower Escort Agency and Huan Xi Manor are one entity. What you did really put me in a difficult position."
Qiu Tong smiled and said, "Fourth Master need not feel guilty. Our Huan Xi Manor has always dealt with matters and not people. Our Young Miss is indeed angry. I definitely cannot take back these ten taels of silver. You can just watch and see. Our friendship is still the same. You don't need to think too much."
After she finished speaking, she took her leave without saying another word.
Fourth Master Wen looked at Qiu Tong's departing figure and was unable to chase after her. He could only stomp his feet and throw the ten taels of silver to Escort Leader Luo. He scolded angrily, "This is all your fault."
Escort Leader Luo, whose face had long turned pale from the torment of what he had seen and heard today, still agilely caught the silver. He said innocently, "Fourth Master, I was just trying to increase income and reduce expenditure. Who knew that I would run into such a hard nail?"
Fourth Master Wen was so angry that his face turned green. He pointed at Escort Leader Luo and said, "Do you think I don't know what you are thinking? Isn't it because Zhang Xiaohu is your assistant and does a better job than you? He is only an escort now. If he becomes an escort leader in the future, he will definitely threaten your position and development."
Escort Leader Luo blushed and said, "Fourth Master, isn't this a sign of my competitive spirit? It is also the result of your nurturing."
"Bah."
Fourth Master Wen spat a mouthful of phlegm on the ground and said, "You still have the nerve to say that. Alright, when Zhang Xiaohu returns, you'd better quickly apologize to him. If he can forgive you, then everything will be fine. If not, then do as you see fit."
After he finished speaking, he no longer paid any attention to him and turned to return to his room.
The remaining people watched the show end and also waved their sleeves and returned to their rooms. Only the main character, Escort Leader Luo, was left standing there with a red and blue face. No one knew what he was thinking.
For the time being, Zhang Xiaohu followed the Misty Mountain Villa's disciples and rushed all the way to the Misty Mountain Villa's conference hall. Zhang Xiaohua in the library picked up the inconspicuous little box and wanted to open it. The box didn't open as he expected. Instead, it didn't move at all in his hand. Zhang Xiaohua increased his strength, but still couldn't open it. Thus, he changed his angle and used all his strength, but the box still lay quietly in his hand without any signs of opening. Zhang Xiaohua looked left and right and became angrier. He shouted in his heart, I just want to see what is inside. I just want to see the name. Why is it so difficult?
Suddenly, as if he thought of something, he took out his beloved little sword and used the tip of the sword to pry at the center of the box. However, the box didn't seem to have any gaps. The tip of the sword actually slid on the box. No matter how hard Zhang Xiaohua tried to pry, it didn't have any effect.
In the end, Zhang Xiaohua didn't have much patience to begin with. He swung his left arm and used all his strength to stab at the little box. This was also the reason why Zhang Xiaohua was diligent in practicing his sword moves. This simple movement unconsciously displayed one of the variations. The angle and speed were all shockingly consistent. Thus, a warm current instantly appeared from somewhere in his left arm and traveled up his left arm. When the little sword stabbed into the little box, the warm current also reached the little sword at the same time. A "pop" sound was heard. Zhang Xiaohua was shocked, "This is bad. Why did I pierce this little box in a hurry? What should I do?
I've caused a disaster! "
