Chapter 67

When the carriage started moving again, two people boarded it. One of them was a young man dressed in a brocade robe with a folding fan in his hand. He looked very dashing. The other was a plump young man with his small eyes darting around. Obviously, the two of them did not know each other and found their own seats.

It seemed that birds of a feather flock together. Not long after the carriage started moving, the young scholar, Li Jinfeng, started chatting with the young man in brocade robe. The people around them also knew that the young man's surname was Shangguan and his given name was Yun. He came from Xu Town. However, they did not know each other well and did not tell him why they were going to Ping Yang City. Shangguan Yun seemed to be very arrogant. He only talked to Li Jinfeng and ignored Zhang Xiaohua and the rest. Sometimes, he would even frown when he saw Zhang Xiaohua. Zhang Xiaohu might be thinking about something and did not notice it. However, Zhang Xiaohua saw it clearly. Zhang Xiaohua was also very puzzled. He even lowered his head to look at his own clothes and his second brother's clothes. There was nothing special about them. They were all new clothes that their mother had made for them before they left. This made Zhang Xiaohua very confused.

In fact, Zhang Xiaohua did not understand. From his and Zhang Xiaohu's clothes and manners, anyone with a little bit of knowledge could tell that they came from the countryside. It was probably their first time traveling. At first, the few people who came before them were from ordinary families. Although they looked down on them, they did not show it on their faces. As for Li Jinfeng, a scholar, he was particular about self-restraint and would not show it on his face. However, Shangguan Yun was different. He came from a rich family. Although he was not a foppish playboy, the servants in his family dressed better and behaved better than Zhang Xiaohua and the rest. This time, he did not use his own carriage and took the carriage of the Horse and Carriage Company to gain experience. As soon as he got on the carriage, he saw two people who were obviously from the countryside sitting in front of him. Naturally, he would show his impatience. In fact, it was not out of malice, but it made Zhang Xiaohua confused.

Fatty, who was sitting at the side, saw Shangguan Yun's expression and also looked in the direction of Zhang Xiaohua. He pursed his lips and narrowed his eyes. It was unknown who he was pursing his lips for. However, seeing that he wanted to interrupt a few times to talk to Shangguan Yun, his face was probably mostly for Zhang Xiaohua.

Shangguan Yun chatted with Li Jinfeng for a while and suddenly asked, "Brother Li, you have been studying in Ping Yang City for a long time. Do you know of the Lotus Escort Agency?"

Li Jinfeng was stunned and said, "I do. Almost everyone in Ping Yang City knows of this escort agency. It is located in the west of Ping Yang City and occupies a large area. It is said that it is very powerful and has opened many strongholds in the Yu Nation.

Brother Shangguan, why did you suddenly mention the Lotus Escort Agency? Could it be that you have business to take care of? "

At this moment, Fatty at the side finally found a chance to interrupt. He cupped his hands and said, "May I ask if Young Master Shangguan is also going to take the exam for the Lotus Escort Agency?"

Shangguan Yun looked at Fatty in surprise and asked, "May I ask, are you going as well?"

That Fatty said, "I am Yu Lun. I am heading to the Lotus Escort Agency."

Shangguan Yun smiled and said, "I didn't expect that there would be a comrade beside me. Sorry for the disrespect. However, I wonder if Brother Yu has been to the Lotus Escort Agency before?"

Yu Lun said, "I have been to Ping Yang City before. Unfortunately, I was busy playing and didn't have the chance to go there. I heard that the Lotus Escort Agency is recruiting so I came to try my luck and see if I can be selected.

However, Brother Shangguan's family background seems to be good. Why are you here at the escort agency? "

Shangguan Yun smiled bitterly and said, "I sneaked out secretly. My family forced me to study, but I feel dizzy when I see those books. A few days ago, I heard the guards under me talking about the Lotus Escort Agency and felt that it was good, so I came to give it a try. I thought that since I have been practicing martial arts since I was young, there shouldn't be any problems. When I have learned real skills and returned home, I won't have to look at my old man's face anymore.

After saying that, he seemed to feel that he had gone overboard and hurriedly said to Li Jinfeng, "Brother Li, it's not that you scholars are good. It's just that I have no interest in studying. Please don't take it to heart."

Li Jinfeng smiled and said, "I won't. Everyone has their own aspirations. There's no harm in saying it."

However, he was cursing in his heart. A bunch of reckless martial artists.

At this moment, Zhang Xiaohua asked timidly, "May I ask, does this Lotus Escort Agency have anything to do with the Lotus Escort Agency in Lu Town?"

Shangguan Yun looked at him and didn't say anything. Instead, it was Yu Lun who said, "This little brother must have come from Lu Town. That Lotus Escort Agency is a very large escort agency and has bases in various places. Lu Town naturally has one."

Zhang Xiaohua nodded and said, "Oh, I know this. I still want to ask more."

Yu Lun smiled and said, "Little brother, there's no harm in saying it. I will definitely tell you what I know."

The fatty's puffed up cheeks made him look like a good teacher. Zhang Xiaohua asked, "Then, what does the escort agency do?"

"Bang!" Fatty Yu Lun fell down on the carriage, his head hitting the roof of the carriage.

Li Jinfeng and Shangguan Yun also had their mouths wide open. They looked at Zhang Xiaohua in shock. Xiaohua was very puzzled, "What's wrong with you guys?

You guys don't know what an escort agency does either. "

At this moment, the guard at the side said, "Little brother, this is your first time going out."

Zhang Xiaohua nodded. The guard said, "This escort agency is a group of people who know martial arts. They escort ordinary people's belongings or protect other people's safety."

Zhang Xiaohua nodded as if she didn't understand, but thought in her heart, "Hero Lu said that if our family needs something, we can take the token to Lu Town's Lotus Escort Agency. That Lotus Escort Agency must be related to the Misty School."

Zhang Xiaohua looked at Zhang Xiaohua asking these questions from the side. His face was a bit red. He didn't really understand these questions, but he was too embarrassed to ask. Since Zhang Xiaohua asked, it was a good opportunity for him to listen.

At this moment, Fatty Yu Lun sat up. Shangguan Yun and Li Jinfeng also closed their mouths. However, Zhang Xiaohua asked again, "Then do Big Brother Shangguan and Big Brother Yu go to the escort agency as guards?"

The three people once again lost their composure.

Yu Lun laughed and said, "Little brother, it's like this. The Lotus Escort Agency not only provides guards for others, they also teach people martial arts. We go to the Lotus Escort Agency to learn martial arts."

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua and Zhang Xiaohu's eyes lit up. They looked at each other, already having a plan in their hearts. Zhang Xiaohua asked again, "Big Brother Yu, how does the Lotus Escort Agency choose people?"

Yu Lun said, "It's nothing more than strength, fists, and weapons. I'm not too sure about the specifics, we'll know when we go."

Zhang Xiaohu heard this and secretly remembered it in his heart.

Shangguan Yun was already impatient and said, "Why are you asking so much? Don't tell me you want to go too?"

Yu Lun said, "Little brother is too young, so they probably won't accept you. You, as the older brother, can go try."

Zhang Xiaohu said, "Really?"

Yu Lun blinked and said, "Really, you have no problem."

Zhang Xiaohu was happy and asked, "Then when you go tomorrow, can you bring me along?

We don't know how to get there. "

Yu Lun smiled and said, "That's not a problem, we'll go together tomorrow."

Following that, Yu Lun and the other two began to talk about culture and customs. Zhang Xiaohu and Zhang Xiaohua couldn't get a word in edgewise. Both of them looked outside happily, as if they could see the light of tomorrow. It was a pity that as it was their first time out, they didn't see the disdain between Shangguan Yun's brows and the sneer in Yu Lun's eyes. Only the guard saw this, but he also knew that it was their first time out and they would definitely hit a wall. Since it wasn't a big deal, he didn't specially remind them.

The horse carriage arrived at Ping Yang City at night. The Zhang brothers had originally wanted to see what Ping Yang City looked like, but when they saw the pitch-black night sky, this idea had long been extinguished. They could only look at the huge city gate in the dark, like a monster swallowing the horse carriage whole, and the lanterns in front of the houses by the roadside swaying in the wind.

The horse carriage traveled a long distance into the city before stopping at a secluded place. Everyone alighted from the carriage. As expected, there was a sign of a 'Gallop' horse carriage company. It must be the horse carriage company of Ping Yang City. It was already late at night. The staff of the horse carriage company invited everyone into the store. Everyone ate hastily and went to rest. The Zhang brothers naturally stayed in the shared bunks. Zhang Xiaohua didn't know where Yu Lun and the other two were staying. Originally, she wanted to remind them about going to the Lotus Escort Agency together tomorrow, but seeing how tired they were, Zhang Xiaohua opened her mouth but didn't call out to them.

The shared bunks of the horse carriage company in Ping Yang City were cleaner than other places and there weren't many people. The Zhang brothers couldn't care less. After a tiring day, they couldn't wait to go to bed. Zhang Xiaohua even fell asleep immediately on the bunk. Zhang Xiaohu, on the other hand, carefully placed the bundle under his head before falling into a deep sleep.

The next morning, the two of them woke up very early. After breakfast, they waited at the entrance for Yu Lun and the other two. However, after waiting for a long time, they still didn't see Yu Lun and the other two. The two of them panicked and went inside to inquire. It was only then that they found out that after Young Master Shangguan had checked in last night, he had felt uncomfortable staying in the inn and had asked Yu Lun and Li Jinfeng to look for another inn together. This scholar Li Jinfeng patted his chest and fatty Yu Lun's promise immediately turned into bubbles. The two brothers couldn't help but look at each other. Why was this person so untrustworthy?

The two of them were contemplating whether to go to the Misty School or the Lotus Escort Agency. In the end, they decided to listen to Zhang Xiaohu and still go to the Misty School. However, where was the Misty School?

The two of them went to look for the staff of the horse carriage company to inquire. Fortunately, the staff's attitude was good. That Misty School's reputation was also prominent. It was easy to find out that the Misty School wasn't in Ping Yang City, but in the Ethereal Heights, which was ten miles east of the city.

This horse carriage company was in the northwest corner of Ping Yang City. They needed to pass through Ping Yang City and exit from the east gate. They only left the horse carriage company after they had ascertained the route.

The horse carriage company was in a remote area in the northwest corner of Ping Yang City. Although the sun was high up in the sky, there weren't many people in the vicinity. After the two of them had walked for a while, they passed through an alley and turned a corner. Both of them couldn't help but stop in their tracks. Zhang Xiaohu looked at everything in front of him and asked Zhang Xiaohu in puzzlement, "Second Brother, don't tell me it's the new year again?"
