low-key is king

Chapter 356
On an official road outside the Daxuan Dynasty, the dust is flying!

Looking down from the sky, a convoy of cars was slowly moving on the official road, winding tens of feet, with about a dozen large carts, and some strong men guarding them on both sides.

This is obviously a dart team that makes a living by walking darts. Each of the dozens of vehicles has a flag planted on it, and the four characters "Feiyun Escort Bureau" are written on it, which is quite impressive.

"Brother Lu, my Feiyun Escort Agency is well-known in the surrounding countries. If you follow us, no one will dare to trouble you!"

A stout man was sitting on an escort cart, and he smiled at a boy in black who was also sitting in the cart next to him, and his tone was full of undisguised arrogance.

But the black-clothed boy just nodded with a smile. Judging by his appearance, he was Lu Xun who had changed his appearance, and his alias hidden in the bodyguard team was Lu San.

Because he did such a big thing in Baihua Kingdom, Lu Xun took Lu Linger, a little niece who has no cultivation, and in order to cause unnecessary trouble, he sneaked into this escort team by chance. .

Of course, Lu Xun naturally did not reveal his true cultivation, he just said that his uncle and niece were going to visit relatives ahead, and he was afraid of danger on the road, so he wanted to take shelter of the escort team.

Naturally, this will not be free. After Lu Xun took out a few golden beads, he naturally became a customer of the Feiyun Escort Bureau. Such a thing is perfectly normal.

After this trip, Feiyun Escort will naturally have a lot of rewards, but it is impossible for them to refuse the business that is offered to them. This is also the normal way for them to earn extra money.

Many ordinary people or low-level cultivators who go on the road alone are likely to encounter strong men who block the road and rob them, and take shelter from a large and powerful bodyguard team, which is also human nature.

The Feiyun Escort Bureau didn't covet Lu Xun's uncle and nephew, but the guests who can produce a few top-grade gold beads are undoubtedly their big customers.

Therefore, this man with a high status in the bodyguard team and a martial artist of the Three Realms, did not hesitate to say a few words with Lu Xun, which can be regarded as showing the strength of Feiyun Bodyguard Bureau.

"Uncle Geng, do you often take this road?"

Lu Linger was a little curious at the side. She was born in the Zhendong Palace since she was a child, and she rarely even had the chance to go out. She felt that this way of transporting supplies was very new, so she couldn't help asking.

"It's about three or four times a year. If it's closer, five or six times is also common!"

The strong man named Geng Hao seemed to have a good impression of the little girl, so he replied with a smile, and then he heard the sound of horseshoes in his ears.

"Brother Hao, didn't you say that this road is not smooth? Why didn't you even see half of the murderer when you went back and forth?"

Coming from behind was a young man in his 20s. While controlling the steed and the escort cart, he asked loudly, with some high spirits.

"Stinky boy, can you talk nonsense?"

Hearing this, Geng Hao scolded unhappily, then turned his head and said with a smile: "Brother Lu, this is Zhan Jun, the only son of our head of the bodyguard, you young people, get close to him when you are free!"

When Geng Hao talked about Zhan Jun, he could hear a sense of pride in his tone. After all, such a young three-realm martial artist is rare even in surrounding countries.

It's just that Zhan Jun was well protected by the chief escort of the Feiyun Escort Bureau. This was his first dart, and he was used to hearing the anecdotes told by the escorts, so he had a different kind of expectation.

At this moment, the Feiyun Escort Bureau was already on the way back, but after delivering that dart, it took another job, and it was a big job.

When they safely return to the city where the headquarters of the Flying Cloud Escort is located, they will naturally make a lot of money again.

Some words are very taboo in the Escort, for example, what Zhan Jun said just now, the average Escort would not say it casually.

Things like this are sometimes accurate.

"Nice to meet you!"

Lu Xun cupped his fists towards Zhan Jun. He was just a lone traveler taking shelter of Feiyun Escort, so naturally he couldn't be too arrogant.

"Brother Hao, I'll go ahead and have a look!"

However, after Lu Xun took the initiative to greet him, Zhan Jun rolled his eyes, and then galloped forward, leaving only a refreshing voice behind.

"This kid..."

Seeing this, Geng Hao was also a little helpless, and turned his head slightly apologetically and said: "This kid is self-reliant on the cultivation of the three realms, and no one pays attention to him. When he returns to the escort agency, he must be disciplined by the chief escort!"

Although Geng Hao was expressing his apologies, in fact there was a touch of pride in his tone, because with Zhan Jun's talent, in time, he might be the next head of the Feiyun Escort.

As for discipline or something, it is somewhat true. After all, Zhan Jun has a flamboyant temper and doesn't pay attention to the people of the world. This may cause big problems after leading the darts alone in the future.

"Everyone, speed up and go to the white mule shop ahead to rest before dark!"

After finishing talking about Zhan Jun, Geng Hao raised his head to look at the sky, seeing that the sky was getting dark, he gave a loud shout, raised the whip in his hand, and savagely whipped the horse's ass in front of him.

Although Geng Hao is not the leader of the bodyguard team, his words are still very useful. When the bodyguard leader in front didn't say anything, the speed of the bodyguard team instantly increased.

About an hour later, the sky gradually darkened, and the appearance of some buildings in front of him came into Lu Xun's eyes. It seemed that they were the so-called White Mule Store.

The White Mule Shop looked like a post station, much smaller than a small town, with only a dozen buildings in total, and the entire bodyguard team ran directly to the largest building in the center.

It seems that Feiyun Escort is very familiar with this White Mule Shop. When the escort team stopped in front of this building, Geng Hao jumped out of the car, no longer caring about Lu Xun's uncle and nephew, and went to check it out.

At this moment, Lu Xun also saw Zhan Jun coming hand in hand with a figure over fifty years old, and immediately guessed that that person should be the real head of the bodyguard team.

The name seems to have been mentioned by Geng Hao, what is his name Qi Kun, and he is a martial artist of the four realms.

"Qi Biaotou..."

But when the two of them had just walked to the door, Geng Hao had already come out from the inside, his expression was a little embarrassed, and he was hesitant to speak, as if he didn't know how to speak.

"Brother Hao, what's the matter?"

Zhan Jun has a straight temper, so he asked directly.

It was his first time to go out to walk darts, but he had stopped at the White Mule Shop once before, so he was not unfamiliar with this place.

Every time the Flying Cloud Escorts go out, they almost always stay overnight at this White Mule Shop. Generally speaking, they will ask people to come and make a stop and ask the boss to reserve a room.

This time it was Zhan Jun who was arranging this matter, he had already been rewarded that everything was normal, but now looking at Geng Hao's appearance, it seems that something has changed.

"The boss said... there is not a single room left!"

Sure enough, the words from Lianhao's mouth made De Zhanjun's expression darken in an instant, and Qi Kun beside him was also a little worried, after all, he knew something.

The White Mule Shop is only so big, and it can only accommodate so many of them here. If there is no room here, then they will have to sleep on the street tonight.

"Bai Lao Liu, what's going on?"

Zhan Jun resisted the urge to explode, then suddenly turned his head and shouted at the back, a short figure with short stature came running over, sweating profusely.

"Didn't you say that everything is as usual? Why is there no room?"

Zhan Jun looked a little angry, this was a task entrusted to him, but he didn't expect it to go wrong.

This may affect his impression among so many escorts, especially when he saw Qi Kun's gloomy face.

"Short... young escort, I clearly agreed with the boss earlier, asking him to leave all the rooms to us, and he promised well, why did he change his mind?"

Bai Laoliu was covered in cold sweat, he couldn't afford to offend the person in front of him, so he could only blame the innkeeper.

What's more, what he said was true, and he was also full of anger at this time.

"Hmph, is that so?"

Zhan Jun's face softened a little, and then he shouted in a cold voice: "I'd like to see who gave them such courage, even my Feiyun Escort's face!"

After the words fell, Zhan Jun was already striding towards the inn, this scene made Lu Xun shake his head slightly, secretly thinking that this young escort is indeed a fledgling.

"Boss, let's see the situation before we talk!"

Fortunately, there is still a sensible person around Zhan Jun. Don't look at Geng Hao's appearance, but at this time he is quite cautious, step by step, guarding the side of the young escort, and reminding him aloud.

Because it was not the first time that Feiyun Escort had dealt with the largest inn in Bailudian, not to mention Bai Lao Liu came to play an outpost, the other party had no reason to offend such a big client as Feiyun Escort.

Since he knew it was the room booked by the Feiyun Escort, and he dared to give it to someone else, it must be because the other party has the strength that the inn can't afford.

The overall strength of the Flying Cloud Escort Bureau is naturally much greater than that of this small inn, but both Geng Hao and Na Qi Kun have been veterans of darts for many years, and only by being cautious can they go further in this industry.

"Boss, where's the boss? Get out of here, Young Master!"

Zhan Jun didn't know if he had listened to Geng Hao's words, but he started yelling as soon as he entered the store, because he didn't see that familiar figure inside the counter.

This young escort is not a fool, and he will not provoke those who don't know the details before he knows the truth, but he will not be so polite to an innkeeper.

"Here, here, here!"

A voice came from the stairs on the second floor of the inn, and then a figure rushed down, but seeing this person's appearance, everyone in the escort agency felt a little strange.

Because the innkeeper, whom they were all quite familiar with, looked a little ashamed at the moment, there was even a smear of redness and swelling in the corner of his eyes, and the left half of his cheek was also swollen visible to the naked eye.
