Chapter 93

Yu Lun's words were very rude, but they were also unreasonable. When Li Jinfeng heard it, he looked at Zhang Xiaohua's red face and felt quite distressed. Although he was a child from the countryside and was somewhat inexperienced, he had just helped him drive away the thief. Moreover, along the way, his words and actions were full of generosity, which left a very good impression on Li Jinfeng. Therefore, he continued to say, "Brother Yu, what you said is wrong. Brother Xiaohua wholeheartedly pursuing martial arts is a good thing. A warm-hearted person like him who can practice martial arts will certainly help a lot of people."

Yu Lun saw that Li Jinfeng was helping Zhang Xiaohua, but did not stop. He continued to say, "Brother Shangguan, you are a scholar, so you don't know how difficult it is to practice martial arts. On the road of martial arts, without money and aptitude, you will never succeed. It is better not to learn martial arts. If there is any trouble, if you try to help yourself, you will lose your life in vain. Don't you think so, Brother Shangguan?"

Shangguan Yun did not say much, nor did he look at Zhang Xiaohua. He just nodded.

At this time, Li Jinfeng felt strange. He did not care about Zhang Xiaohua's matter and asked Shangguan Yun with interest, "Brother Shangguan, what is the reason for this? This little brother is very curious. Can you explain it to this little brother?"

Shangguan Yun frowned and said: "Brother Li, to put it simply, as long as you have a few copper coins, you can buy books and you can study. At worst, you can spend a small amount of money to find a teacher to teach you how to read and write. Teachers can be said to be everywhere, right?

But practicing martial arts is different. Let's not talk about other things, just take me as an example. I've liked practicing martial arts since I was a child, and my family's financial situation is not bad. My father hired a Martial Master from a young age to teach me martial arts, and even spent a large amount of money to buy precious medicinal herbs for me to bathe in and treat my injuries. Martial Masters are already few in number, and those with great ability are even fewer. I don't know how many times I've changed masters, but I finally found one with real ability, and only then was I able to learn some things. That's not it, that master is old and wants to retire to his hometown. My father doesn't want me to continue practicing martial arts, saying that it's fine as long as I have a strong physique to protect myself. That's why I secretly ran out and went to the Lotus Escort Agency to learn martial arts. With my foundation of practicing martial arts since I was a child, and even spent a considerable amount of money to let me in to learn, how could someone like Zhang Xiaohua possibly learn martial arts? "

Finished speaking, Shangguan Yun shook his head and smiled gently. It was not a contemptuous smile, but a gentle smile, as if he was talking about the ambition of a manservant in his manor.

It was a kind of comment from top to bottom, a kind of disdain that came from the heart. Yes, it was the kind of disdain that came with a wave of the hand.

Yu Lun was not the only one who felt it. He smiled knowingly and looked down at Zhang Xiaohua.

Li Jinfeng also felt it, but he knew that Shangguan Yun came from a rich family, and this Zhang Xiaohua's identity was equivalent to his family's servant. It was already good enough that he said so much. If it were other rich playboys, they would have already spoken ill of him. His actions showed that he did not have any ill intentions towards Zhang Xiaohua. It was just a habit.

However, he immediately thought of himself and realized the gap between himself and Shangguan Yun. He was originally a poor scholar who came to Pingyang City to study. He met Shangguan Yun by chance and felt that he was a good person, and wanted to befriend him. Now, looking at Shangguan Yun's attitude, was his intention of befriending him?

Naturally, Zhang Xiaohua was embarrassed when she heard this. However, it was not the first time that she was criticized. Moreover, she thought that she had already taken the first step on the road of martial arts. As long as she persevered, she would be able to achieve something. Instantly, she felt relieved and the whole world became bigger. She said with a smile, "Young Master Shangguan is right. Every word is from the bottom of my heart. However, there are many ways to practice martial arts, and it is not necessarily the same way."

Shangguan Yun, who originally did not care about Zhang Xiaohua, saw that she was not ashamed or embarrassed by his words, and even said such words. It was as if Zhang Xiaohua had suddenly grown up. He could not help but look at the servant standing at the side of the room, who was neither arrogant nor humble, and said, "Oh?

There are other ways? Then tell me? "

Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "Isn't my second brother, Zhang Xiaohu, a bodyguard in the Lotus Escort Agency?

Isn't he practicing martial arts? "

Yu Lun and Li Jinfeng, who had just heard Zhang Xiaohua speak very well, were also listening attentively. When they heard the words "bodyguard", Yu Lun could not help but laugh and said, "Bodyguard, haha, bodyguard, a little bodyguard dares to compare himself with us, the martial arts students of the Martial Arts Hall. This really makes me laugh until my belly hurts."

Shangguan Yun also wanted to laugh, but he suddenly frowned and said, "Zhang Xiaohu, Zhang Xiaohu, why does it sound so familiar?"

When Yu Lun heard this, he stopped laughing and said, "A bodyguard named Zhang Xiaohu, what's there to be familiar with? Hahaha, eh ~ Zhang Xiaohu, it's quite familiar. I think I've heard someone mention it before?"

Suddenly, Shangguan Yun slapped the chair and said, "I remember, a while ago I heard from the Martial Arts Hall's Fourth Master Wen that this Zhang Xiaohu is a martial arts genius and a newly recruited bodyguard. He even said that he wanted him to come to our Martial Arts Hall to practice martial arts."

At this time, a loud and clear voice came from outside the door, "What genius, he's just a bumpkin. After practicing martial arts for a few days, he dares to call himself a genius. If there's a chance, teach him a lesson and let him know what a true genius is."

These words were very arrogant.

Zhang Xiaohua turned her head to look at the door, looking forward to seeing what this person looked like.

Li Jinfeng also had the same feeling. To be able to say such words, a person must have something to rely on. Most of the scholars were handsome and elegant, but what about those who practiced martial arts?

Were they big and thick, with hair growing out of their temples?

Li Jinfeng was very much looking forward to it.

When Yu Lun heard this, he immediately rushed to the door with a smile on his face.

Shangguan Yun frowned and immediately stood up. However, he did not take a step forward.

The door was not closed. When Yu Lun rushed to the door, the person had already stepped in.

A handsome man walked into the abode, holding the same folding fan as Li Jinfeng. He did not open it, but played with it from time to time. This person was also dressed in white and was very well dressed. There were many small things on his body, but Zhang Xiaohua could not tell what they were. She just felt that they were very long-winded. How could someone dressed like this work in the fields?

That person was quite handsome, but his two eyebrows were too high, making people feel that he was a bit flamboyant. However, with that face of his, it could be said that he was in the prime of his life, full of vigor and vitality. It was also very appropriate.

Zhang Xiaohua could not help but turn to look at Li Jinfeng, thinking, "Is this also a martial arts practitioner?

Why does he look more like a scholar than Brother Li? "

Yu Lun quickly bowed and said, "Young Master Yu is here. What a rare guest. I haven't seen you in a while."

Young Master Yu did not return the greeting. He waved his folding fan and said, "I also went back to visit the elders in my family. I just came back today and came here to pay a visit to Young Master Shangguan.

Eh, this is? "

He obviously saw Li Jinfeng in the room.

Yu Lun smiled and introduced, "This is Young Master Li Jinfeng from Quicksand Academy. He is a scholar that Young Master Shangguan and I met when we entered Ping Yang City a month ago."

When Young Master Yu heard that Li Jinfeng was a scholar, he cupped his fists and said, "I am Yu Deyi. I am very happy to meet Young Master Li."

When Li Jinfeng saw Yu Deyi bowing, he quickly returned the greeting and said, "Nice to meet you, nice to meet you."

Yu Lun seized the opportunity and said, "Young Master Yu is here to learn martial arts in Yu City. The Yu family is an influential family in Yu City."

Yu Deyi put his index finger to his lips and said, "Shh ~ keep a low profile, keep a low profile."

Then, he directly ignored Zhang Xiaohua and walked to Shangguan Yun. He bowed and said, "Brother Shangguan, I haven't seen you for a few days. You still look energetic."

Shangguan Yun also smiled and returned the greeting, "Brother Yu looks better than before. We can't compare to you. Brother Yu, please take a seat."

Yu Deyi did not stand on ceremony and sat on the chair that Yu Lun had just sat on. Shangguan Yun also sat down.

Shangguan Yun and Yu Lun's abode was divided into two rooms. The inner room was naturally for them to rest. The outer room was used for receiving guests. There were only two chairs and a square table. When Li Jinfeng came in, he only cared about talking and did not find a chair to sit on. Now, Shangguan Yun and Yu Deyi sat on the only two chairs. The other three people in the room did not have chairs. Yu Lun patted his head and quickly walked into the inner room. He took two chairs and placed them at the bottom. He sat on one and gestured for Li Jinfeng to sit down as well.

Li Jinfeng looked at the only chair, but he was too embarrassed to sit on it. It was okay if others ignored Zhang Xiaohua, but he had brought Zhang Xiaohua here. Although she was a servant, she was not his follower. Yu Deyi must have misunderstood. He could not explain clearly, otherwise, it would make things worse and make Zhang Xiaohua feel embarrassed. However, he also knew that there were only four chairs in Shangguan Yun's abode. It was not that he wanted to make things difficult for Zhang Xiaohua, but what should he do?

While he was in a dilemma, Zhang Xiaohua walked behind Li Jinfeng and patted his shoulder. She pointed at the chair with her chin and walked over first. She stood behind the chair with her hands behind her back.

Li Jinfeng understood and nodded with a smile. He also sat down.

Their actions were seen by the other three people. Shangguan Yun knew that there were only four chairs in the room. It was normal that there was no seat for Zhang Xiaohua, so he did not care. However, Yu Deyi was a little confused. What did this servant's actions mean?

However, since it was someone else's business, he did not ask. Instead, he coughed and asked, "Just now, at the door, I heard people talking about the famous armed escort. What was his name again?

Can you tell me more about it?

I remember that when I left, I had not heard of this name. How did it become so popular in the martial arts center in just a few days? "

Yu Lun glanced at Zhang Xiaohua and said, "Young Master Yu, his name is Zhang Xiaohu.

Zhang Xiaohu came to Pingyang City with us and even took the same horse carriage that day. However, we didn't arrive at the escort agency on the same day. Like Young Master Yu, we entered the martial arts dojo. That Zhang Xiaohu first signed up for the martial arts dojo, but because he didn't have enough money, he signed up as an armed escort. It was said that during the test, Sixth Young Master Li was watching. I heard from the armed escorts and the people from the martial arts dojo outside that day that Zhang Xiaohu didn't practice martial arts for even a day. However, when someone demonstrated a set of Liuhe Boxing in front of him, Zhang Xiaohu actually had a photographic memory and could repeat it completely. Sixth Young Master Li was very surprised and praised him endlessly, calling him a genius. "

Upon hearing this, Yu Deyi shook his head and said with a look of disdain, "Although the Liuhe Boxing is very complicated and it is indeed difficult to demonstrate it in one go, when I first started learning martial arts when I was young, which fist technique didn't pass in one go?

I remember that I have a distant cousin who also learned the Liuhe Boxing for the first time. Although he did not learn it in one go, he was able to learn most of it. With Zhang Xiaohu's talent, it is considered rare. If he were to say that he is a genius, it would be too sensationalist. "

When Zhang Xiaohua heard this, she was unhappy. Although Yu Lun was exaggerating, he was still her brother. Of course, she was willing to hear others praise him. Now that Yu Deyi had rebutted her, she knew that what he said made sense. However, she still felt that he was a little jealous, so she did not think much of it.

Shangguan Yun continued Yu Lun's words and said, "Brother Yu, what you said makes sense. I did not participate in the incident that day. However, when I heard it, I also felt that it was strange. This incident was just normal. It was just a bodyguard. There is nothing special about him. However, there is something that Brother Yu does not know."

Yu Deyi was stunned and said, "Please enlighten me, Brother Shangguan."

Shangguan Yun continued, "When Zhang Xiaohu joined the escort agency as a bodyguard, I had not yet come to the Martial Arts Hall. However, Brother Yu was in the Martial Arts Hall at that time. Why didn't you hear this news?

Moreover, before Brother Yu returned to Yu City, didn't you also stay in the escort agency with Zhang Xiaohu?

Why didn't you hear this news? "

Yu Deyi said disapprovingly, "He was just a lowly bodyguard. How would I know?

We don't practice martial arts together. Don't tell me you want me to go to the place where the servants practice to take a look? "

Shangguan Yun also laughed and said, "Brother Yu's words make sense. Actually, Zhang Xiaohu did not become famous during Brother Yu's time in the escort agency. It was recently."

At this time, Shangguan Yun also glanced at Zhang Xiaohua and said, "According to some of the brothers in the Martial Arts Hall, ever since Zhang Xiaohu became a bodyguard, other than the usual training, he only practiced fist techniques. However, he was also strange. No matter how Sixth Master Li advised him, he only practiced the Liuhe Fist. Sixth Master Li saw that he was already very good at it and was prepared to teach him other fist techniques. However, he refused to learn. He said that he was not proficient in the Liuhe Fist and that he would improve every time he practiced it. He even told Sixth Master Li that he would only learn other martial arts when he felt that he could no longer improve.

At first, Sixth Master Li thought that Zhang Xiaohu was joking. However, after waiting for more than ten days, Zhang Xiaohu was still practicing the Liuhe Fist. He could not help but get angry and gave Zhang Xiaohu a final warning. He would give him a few more days to think about it. Otherwise, he would not let him practice other martial arts.

However, after waiting for more than ten days, Zhang Xiaohu still did not beg for mercy. He only minded his own business and practiced the Liuhe Fist.

Sixth Master Li originally wanted to ignore him. However, he thought that Zhang Xiaohu was a good seedling. Although he started practicing martial arts late, he could be a backup for the escort agency in the future. Thus, he pulled a bodyguard to look for Zhang Xiaohu. He told Zhang Xiaohu that if he beat this bodyguard, Sixth Master Li would not say anything and Zhang Xiaohu could practice however he wanted. However, if Zhang Xiaohu lost, he would have to listen to him.

Brother Yu, what do you think the result will be? "

Yu Deyi slapped his forehead and said, "Brother Shangguan, aren't you bullying my intelligence?

If even Zhang Xiaohu lost, what are we still talking about here? "

Shangguan Yun laughed and said, "Haha, that's right. I reckon that day, Sixth Master Li did not even think that Zhang Xiaohu would win. Anyone who thinks about it, although the bodyguards of the Lotus Escort Agency are not veterans, they are still skilled martial artists. Which one of them hasn't practiced for a few years?

Five to six years is the minimum. Most of them have practiced for around ten years. This Zhang Xiaohu has only been practicing martial arts for a month. How could he be their opponent? "

Yu Lun saw that Zhang Xiaohu was a bit tired and hurriedly said, "I don't know too much about the situation that day. I only heard it from others. At the beginning, Zhang Xiaohu was indeed not the bodyguard's opponent. However, he kept using the Liuhe Fist to fight. Later on, the more he fought, the more proficient he became. He was actually tied with the bodyguard. That bodyguard tried a few different fist techniques but to no avail. He became impatient and in the end, he was punched in the chest by Zhang Xiaohu and had no choice but to admit defeat."

"Eh ~ This Zhang Xiaohu is really interesting.

Could it be that he really is a genius? "

Yu Deyi also became interested and said, "However, for someone who has only practiced fist techniques for a month to be able to win against someone who has practiced fist techniques for many years, it's too inconceivable. What is the reason for this?"

At this time, a voice sounded and said, "There is no other reason. It's just practice."

Everyone looked over and saw that it was Zhang Xiaohua who answered in high spirits.

When Zhang Xiaohua heard that his second brother, Zhang Xiaohu, had only practiced the Liuhe Fist technique ever since he entered the escort agency, he felt his heart skip a beat. It was as if a string in his heart had been plucked. It was just like when he met Li Jinfeng in the morning. Li Jinfeng's words made his heart skip a beat. Other people's things were other people's things. They might not necessarily be suitable for him. Only those that were suitable for him were his.

Now that he combined it with his second brother's training method, he suddenly thought of a way out for himself. In an instant, he felt his eyes brighten as a great path appeared in front of him. When he heard Yu Deyi ask for the reason, he couldn't help but feel an itch in his heart and blurted out a sentence that Mister Liu had said.

Yu Deyi frowned and snorted, saying, "Young Master Li, why is your servant so impolite? Didn't you teach him some etiquette at home?"

Li Jinfeng blushed a little. Wasn't this obviously saying that he had no manners?

He hurriedly stood up and explained, "Brother Yu, you've misunderstood. This is not my servant. He works at Huan Xi Mountain Villa.

Speaking of which, he's a friend that Brother Shangguan, Brother Yu Lun, and I have made together. "

"Friend?"

Yu Deyi looked at Zhang Xiaohua's green robe and small hat and couldn't help but feel a little unhappy. He turned to look at Shangguan Yun. Shangguan Yun also frowned and secretly blamed Li Jinfeng for not knowing how to speak. It was naturally embarrassing to be friends with a servant. Moreover, he had never treated Zhang Xiaohua as a friend. Yu Lun saw this and hurriedly said, "Young Master Yu, we also came to Ping Yang City in the same carriage. That's how we got to know each other."

Yu Deyi then nodded arrogantly and retracted his gaze. However, as if he suddenly thought of something, he asked, "How many people were in the same carriage as you?

Then didn't he also come with Zhang Xiaohu?

“

Yu Lun smiled and said, "There were five people in the same carriage as us. He's one of them. Moreover, he's the younger brother of Zhang Xiaohu that we were talking about just now. His name is Zhang Xiaohua."
