Chapter 244
When Zhang Xiaohua heard this, his heart was moved. He felt that it was very reasonable, so he carefully opened the oilcloth bag. The oilcloth bag was tightly wrapped. After opening it for a long time, he finally revealed a thin booklet.
The booklet was very thin. It was not even half as thick as the books that Zhang Xiaohua usually read. Moreover, the paper was strange. It was not ordinary paper. It seemed to be a kind of silk. When Zhang Xiaohua opened it, he was even more shocked. There was actually an ancient text written on it. On the first page, there were three big words: "Bone Solidifying Pill".
Pill?
Why was it a pill again?
Could it be related to 《Alchemy Technique》?
Zhang Xiaohua could not help but feel suspicious.
However, since he didn't understand the >, he naturally wouldn't understand the things in this booklet. Zhang Xiaohua thought for a while and felt that he should wait until he finished reading > first. Why did it say "Beginner" too?
It should be the simplest.
Zhang Xiaohua put away the booklet and wrapped the oilcloth bag again. She thought for a moment and saw that her second brother was standing guard at the side. She took out the money pouch again and used her divine sense to put the oilcloth bag and jade bracelet into the pouch. Then, she put the banknotes and other items into the usual space in the money pouch.
Zhang Xiaohua saw Zhang Xiaohua put the banknotes into the money bag and said with a smile: "This money bag is not bad. It was just empty for half a day and now there are banknotes inside."
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and did not say anything. He put away the money bag.
After tidying up, Zhang Xiaohua looked at the sky and said: "Second brother, it's already noon. Are we still going to Young Master Li's house?"
"Why not?
Young Master Li's house is in the southwest of Lu Town. You were causing trouble in the east, so it's quite far away. This time we'll go in from the west gate. You've already changed your clothes. Who would know that it was you?
Besides, isn't there a saying that the most dangerous place is the safest place? They would never think that we're still in Lu Town visiting relatives and friends. "
Zhang Xiaohua beamed with joy and said, "That's great. However, I'm already hungry. Why don't we find a restaurant to eat first?"
They rode their horses and entered Luzhen's west gate. They found a restaurant nearby and ordered a bowl of noodles and a few side dishes to appease their hunger. It was true that good news never left the house, but bad news spread far and wide. Although Luzhen was not a small town, the news that the fat man of the Zhao family was beaten up and his leg was broken had spread all over Luzhen. Zhang Xiaohu and Zhang Xiaohua were eating noodles in the restaurant and were also shocked. They were afraid that they would be recognized. However, when they listened carefully, Zhang Xiaohua did not know whether to laugh or cry. Apart from the fact that the details of her mask had not changed, everything else was completely different. For example, her face was as white as jade. Previously, she said that she was wearing a mask. How could it be that her face was as white as jade?
For example, she was eight feet tall. Zhang Xiaohua secretly looked at her own height. She had not seen her for half a day and she had actually grown?
Also, the voice was loud and clear, like a god descending to earth. Zhang Xiaohua did not even need to speak half a word.
As she listened, Zhang Xiaohua straightened her back. How was this talking about her? It was like the ancient people with the surname Lei in the legends. They even helped the elderly cross the road and helped find lost children. What was there to be afraid of?
Zhang Xiaohu listened and almost spat out the noodles from his nostrils. He covered his mouth and held his stomach, laughing loudly!
After eating noodles, the two brothers came out of the restaurant and rode their horses to look for her.
Zhang Xiaohua was puzzled. "Second Brother, why do you think they're talking nonsense? Am I like that?"
Zhang Xiaohu said, "Of course it's not you. At this time, you are no longer you. You are the embodiment of justice for thousands of years. Alas, there are too many injustices in this world. It always makes people resent injustice."
Zhang Xiaohua also praised, "Yes, if there were no injustices, how could we be chivalrous?
If every government official was an honest official, then there would be no such title as the Master of Justice in this world. "
Zhang Xiaohu sighed, "Our strength is still limited. It's already good that we can protect our families. Look at those people just now. Which one of them did not have grievances in their hearts and wanted to find you, the embodiment of justice, to go and save them?"
Zhang Xiaohua gritted her teeth and said, "I hate that I don't have thousands of embodiments. I can't be chivalrous in this world and chase away all demons and monsters."
Zhang Xiaohu clapped his hands and said, "Don't talk about national affairs. Don't talk about national affairs."
Zhang Xiaohua laughed and rode her horse to catch up. Fortunately, there were not many people on the street. If they were not excitedly talking about the hero in the restaurant, they were secretly praying that the hero would not come. Otherwise, there would have been people drawing circles in the corner, cursing the "playboy" for disturbing the people on the street.
Li Jinfeng's house was not far from the west gate of Lu Town.
The Li family was in the tailor business. There was a medium-sized shop in Lu Town that was easy to find. However, when Zhang Xiaohua and the others found it, the shop with the sign "Li Family's Tailor" was closed.
Zhang Xiaohua was puzzled. This was the time for business. How could there be a road that was closed?
She gradually had a bad feeling in her heart.
Zhang Xiaohu dismounted and looked around. He wanted to find someone to ask. Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile, "Second Brother, Young Master Li's house is behind this shop. We can go directly to see. Don't we have to go to his house to ask?"
Zhang Xiaohu said, "Xiaohua, this is your lack of Jianghu experience.
You can see the real situation if you go directly to his house, but after all, you are not prepared. If there is an accident, you will be caught off guard. It is best to ask around first and have a general understanding of the situation. Only then can you calmly deal with it. "
Zhang Xiaohua nodded. Second Brother's words were very reasonable. This kind of experience that was exchanged with blood was not something that could be easily understood by people who had not experienced it.
The street where Li Family's Tailor was located was a commercial street. There were many shops of different sizes. Zhang Xiaohu first found a small shop and went in. Zhang Xiaohua led the horse and waited outside. Not long after, she saw Zhang Xiaohu come out with a livid face. Zhang Xiaohua saw this and hurriedly asked tentatively, "Second Brother, why did you come out so soon?
Did you hit a snag? "
Zhang Xiaohu bit his lip and did not speak. He waved at Zhang Xiaohua and signaled her to follow. Then, he came to a large jade shop and said, "Tie the horse there and go in with me."
Zhang Xiaohua was stunned. She felt that something was wrong. Seeing that Second Brother did not say much, she did not dare to ask more. She tied the horse and followed Second Brother into the jade shop.
When they walked into the jade shop, they saw a few shop assistants whispering to each other. When they saw that there were guests, they didn't welcome them as warmly as expected. Instead, they were hesitant. It wasn't until Zhang Xiaohua and Xiao Yu walked into the hall that a slightly older shop assistant, who looked very experienced, walked up to them and said with a forced smile, "Sir, are you looking to buy jade?
Please come this way. "
Zhang Xiaohua saw that they did not greet the guests at the door. She already felt strange. Now that they were acting like they were reluctant, she was even more surprised.
Zhang Xiaohu did not care about the shop assistant's neglect. He said, "Second Brother, we are not here to buy jade. We just want to ask about the Li's Tailor Shop across the street."
Hearing this, the shop assistant's face changed dramatically. He shrank back and waved his hand repeatedly, "Hero, please spare my life. This matter has nothing to do with me. I have an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child. I have three lives. Please let me go."
Zhang Xiaohu forced a smile on his face and said, "We are not people from Xicui Mountain. We are just friends of Young Master Li. We came to visit today. Coincidentally, we came to ask about it."
"Xicui Mountain!?" Zhang Xiaohua's mind was "Peng". She understood everything.
If it was before, Zhang Xiaohua would have jumped out and ran to the Li's house to see what was going on. But now, she just clenched her teeth and narrowed her eyes slightly. She still followed Second Brother and watched quietly.
Hearing this, the shop assistant looked a little relieved. However, he still waved his hand and said that he did not know.
At this moment, from the curtain behind the counter, an old man in a minister's uniform came out. Zhang Xiaohua looked very familiar. She seemed to have seen him somewhere. She thought for a moment. Wasn't he the relative of one of the two girls that she and Second Brother saved that day?
She had seen him on the roadside.
The old man walked out of the counter and waved his hand to signal the shop assistants to leave. Then he looked up and down at Zhang Xiaohu and turned his eyes to Zhang Xiaohua behind him.
When he saw Zhang Xiaohua, his eyes lit up and he looked a little happy. Then he turned to Zhang Xiaohu and asked, "Two heroes, I am the shopkeeper of this jade shop. My surname is Yu. I don't know why you two are asking about 'Tailor Li'?"
Zhang Xiaohu naturally recognized this person, but he couldn't figure out his relationship with the Li Family. He cupped his hands and said, "I am Li Jinfeng, Young Master Li's friend. Today I came to the Li Family to visit the old man. But I saw that 'Tailor Li's Shop' was closed, so I came to ask around."
Shopkeeper Yu said, "I heard you say that you are not from Xicui Mountain. You must know something."
Zhang Xiaohu nodded in agreement.
Shopkeeper Yu was silent for a moment and said, "Please come in. Let me explain in detail."
The two of them followed the old man into the back hall. After the tea was served, shopkeeper Yu asked, "You two say that you are Jin Feng's friends, do you have any proof?"
When Zhang Xiaohu heard this, he didn't find it strange. He told him everything about how he met Li Jinfeng and how he met him. Shopkeeper Yu nodded as he listened.
When Zhang Xiao Hu finished speaking, he said, "These two heroes are right, it seems like you are Jin Feng's friends without a doubt. I've watched Jin Feng grow up and see him as a nephew. This old man will also be arrogant and call you two nephew."
Zhang Xiaohu quickly stood up and Lian Cheng didn't dare.
Shopkeeper Yu waved his hand and gestured for Zhang Xiaohu to sit down. He then said, "Speaking of the Li Family's experience, we have to start from ten days ago.
This old man doesn't have any children, only my daughter Bi He. She grew up with Jin Feng and Yin Feng from the Li Family. Jin Feng went to Ping Yang City to study and only Yin Feng accompanied his parents. My daughter Bi He and Yin Feng have always been harmonious. Ten days ago, they went on an autumn outing. This old man thought that they wouldn't go far, so I didn't find too many people to protect them. But I didn't expect that they would meet the bandits from Xicui Mountain. "
