Chapter 361

"Carefree City."

Nie Qianyu had no choice but to name the place.

Then, he said, "Hero Ren, I've never told you the name and location of our villa because I have my own difficulties. I hope you can be magnanimous and forgive me."

"Eh?" Zhang Xiaohua felt strange and asked, "Miss Nie, why do you think I'm unhappy?

I haven't told you where I'm going either.

Everyone has their own privacy. I don't have the time to meddle in other people's business. Besides, we're going to part ways soon. What can I do even if I'm angry with you? "

Nie Qianyu's face turned pale and tears welled up in her eyes.

Zhang Xiaohua felt strange about Nie Qianyu's reaction. However, he had no time to coax her. He turned around and walked out of the house. But when he stepped out of the house, he paused for a moment.

He said, "Miss Nie, you called me Hero Ren. Hero Ren, I feel very awkward. If possible, let's call me Hero Ren. What do you think?"

"Well, okay, okay." Nie Qianyu nodded like a chick pecking rice and said, "I'll listen to you, Hero Ren, no, Brother Ren."

Her face, which had been gloomy just now, immediately turned sunny. She smiled through her tears.

Xiao Orange, who was beside her, looked very unnatural.

Fushun Escort Agency was some distance away from the inn. Zhang Xiaohua did not ride the David's Deer. He just strolled around casually and checked if there were any Jianghu people who looked strange.

Tanhe City was a very big town, not inferior to Ping Yang City in any way. There were many people coming and going in the city, and there were also people of the pugilistic world who held swords and sabers. However, they seemed to be in a hurry and did not look around. They were probably not Nie Qianyu's enemies.

Therefore, Zhang Xiaohua was relieved.

He walked slowly because he wanted to draw their attention to the road ahead. It seemed that this method was working. In fact, he killed those people yesterday to warn them and let them see his strength. If they knew what was good for them, they might give up the search for Nie Qianyu. Of course, this situation was almost negligible. The second purpose was to confuse them and make them think that Nie Qianyu had turned back from the original path to look for help.

In this way, Nie Qianyu and Xiao Orange would be escorted to Carefree City by the bodyguards of the Escort Agency. The risk would be reduced.

In fact, Man proposes, God disposes. Zhang Xiaohua was just doing his best. If nothing happened to him, it would not be difficult to send the two of them to Rejuvenation Valley.

Fushun Escort Agency's entrance was huge, more than twice the size of Lotus Escort Agency in Ping Yang City. One look and one could tell that it was the kind that was more powerful. Two stone carved lions stepped on embroidered balls and glared fiercely. However, the entrance of the Escort Agency was wide open. There were merchants coming and going from time to time, but there were no guards at the entrance. This made Zhang Xiaohua feel a little strange.

Could it be that the rules of Tanhe City were different from those of Ping Yang City?

She remembered that the guards of Lotus Escort Agency were guarding the entrance when the door was opened. Firstly, they could greet the guests and secondly, they could show the strength of the Escort Agency. Did Fushun Escort Agency not need this?

Following a few people into the Escort Agency, Zhang Xiaohua took a look. Hehe, the layout was exactly the same as that of Lotus Escort Agency. In front of her was an incomparably huge public square. In the corner were weapons, stone locks and other objects. Early in the morning, there were also a few men practicing martial arts diligently.

Seeing this familiar scene, Zhang Xiaohua smiled. Although the days of recuperation at Lotus Escort Agency were dull and painful, they were also unusually heartwarming.

Then, Zhang Xiaohua familiarly walked towards a large hall on the right side of the entrance. In her impression, that was the place where Lotus Escort Agency received business. In fact, there was no need to ask further. There were already a few people in front of her walking in that direction.

Turning around a projector wall, before Zhang Xiaohua could get close, she heard an anxious and loud voice saying, "Chief Escort Lu, you must make a decision for me. You have already agreed to the conditions earlier. Why did you suddenly change it today?

If this batch of goods of mine can't be escorted to Swallow Creek Town in time, I will lose a lot of money. "

Another loud and clear voice sounded, "Shopkeeper Mo, it's not that I don't want to help you. We have been doing business for more than ten years. If it weren't for the special circumstances, how could I not do business with you?

Our Escort Agency had already issued a notice three days ago. Fushun Escort Agency will temporarily stop doing business in the direction of Vow City. Shopkeeper Mo, did you not notice? "

"Aiyo, that's right. I have been preparing my goods these past few days. How could I have the leisure to consider other things?

Besides, your esteemed Escort Agency has never delayed my matters. I simply didn't think that there would be a problem at your most reliable link. "

"Ai, my apologies, my apologies. Shopkeeper Mo, you should think of another way first. After this period of time, I will pay you a visit to apologize."

"Forget it, let's not talk about apologizing. I'll hurry and find a few guards who know how to fight. Let's send my goods over first before we talk about anything else.

Oh, that's right. Chief Escort Lu, what exactly happened that made your esteemed Escort Agency make such a decision?

Did something happen on the way to Vow City? "

"Hahaha, Shopkeeper Mo, don't ask so much about this matter. These are all matters of the jianghu. It's not good for you to know too much. In any case, I don't think anything will happen if you ask the guards to deliver your goods. You should hurry up and do what you need to do."

When Zhang Xiaohua walked into the hall, a short and fat old man with white hair and beard was panting as he ran out of the hall. As he walked, he said, "Alright, Chief Escort Lu. If something like this happens in the future, please inform me as soon as possible."

Zhang Xiaohua looked up and saw that there were many people in the hall. Just then, a hale and hearty old man with a red face replied in a loud and clear voice, "Alright, Shopkeeper Mo. This Lu will remember."

At this moment, another person beside him asked, "Chief Escort Lu, it's fine if you don't escort Shopkeeper Mo's goods. But my daughter just wants to go to Vow City to spend the New Year with her aunt. She's a living person, so I don't feel comfortable asking her to be a guard. Can't you assign two bodyguards?"

Chief Escort Lu looked at him and said with a wry smile, "Scholar Li, you are also a scholar. This humble one has made it very clear in the notice. Not only goods, but even if you want to protect people, our escort agency won't accept them. Mm, especially women. We won't send anyone."

"How preposterous! Which escort agency in the world has such rules?"

Scholar Li turned around and left in a huff.

Zhang Xiaohua's heart skipped a beat when she heard that. Her brows were already furrowed.

How could there be such a coincidence in this world?

She wanted Fu Shun Escort Agency to escort Nie Qianyu and Little Orange to Vow City. Oh, Fu Shun Escort Agency issued a notice saying that they wouldn't accept any goods or people in the direction of Vow City. Needless to say, this must be the "good deed" of those people who were after Nie Qianyu.

What kind of treasure was in that brocade box in Nie Qianyu's hand?

Why did they put in so much effort?

Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but feel curious.

At this moment, another one-eyed man asked in a low voice, "Chief Escort Lu, the notice also seems to state that all red goods entrusted to your escort agency must be inspected first. Is this true?"

Chief Escort Lu nodded solemnly and said, "I know this is against the rules of the escort agency, but this humble one really has some difficulties that I can't disclose. Please understand. Also, I'm sure everyone knows that the other two escort agencies have issued similar notices. Therefore, if everyone can't agree with these rules of our escort agency, then please find someone else. If you are willing to be escorted by our escort agency, then please follow the notice."

The one-eyed man said, "My item isn't going to Vow City, so there's no need to inspect it."

Chief Escort Lu replied, "I'm sorry, if it's not going to Vow City, Fu Shun Escort Agency can naturally escort it, but it must be inspected. Even if we are escorting people, we still have to see their faces first!"

"Oh, Chief Escort Lu, now that you mention it, I really do remember. Other than the East City Gate which is the same as usual, the other three city gates seem to be …"

A few others also shouted, "Yes, now that you mention it, I really do remember. It seems like three days ago, there were a few jianghu people with swords and sabers guarding outside the city gates. It's been a few days now, and I thought it was strange at that time."

"That's right, Chief Escort Lu, what's going on?

Did something happen? "

Chief Escort Lu stroked his beard and said with a smile, "It's nothing, I dare to guarantee with my life that even if something happens, it has nothing to do with you. The notice from Fu Shun Escort Agency is probably only temporary, and it will return to normal in a few days. If you're not in a hurry, you can come back in a few days to take a look, and perhaps you can escort it according to your wishes."

Chief Escort Lu cupped his hands in salute and walked out of the hall. Those who were not in a hurry, or those who were really unwilling to be inspected by the escort agency, such as the one-eyed man, left first. Only a few bodyguards who were in a hurry and could accept the harsh conditions stayed behind to be taken care of by the other escorts.

What about Zhang Xiaohua?

The bodyguard he wanted Fu Shun Escort Agency to protect was precisely the one they wanted to inspect, so he naturally followed the others out. However, as he walked, he released his divine sense to follow Chief Escort Lu.

Chief Escort Lu exited the main hall and walked towards the backyard. After passing through several courtyards, he arrived at an elegant room. A scholarly middle-aged scholar was tasting food in the room. When he saw Chief Escort Lu return, he stood up with a smile and went up to greet him.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiaohua looked around and walked to the side of a screen wall. With a twist of her body, she immediately disappeared. When she reappeared, she was outside the elegant room.

Zhang Xiaohua poked her head out to look around. She exerted force with her legs, and her body floated up like cotton wool and landed on the elegant room. She pricked up her ears and began to eavesdrop.

PS: I was busy the whole day yesterday and didn't finish writing at night. I continued this morning and only managed to gather 8555 words.
