Chapter 155 Undercurrent
This sudden scene made many people astonished.

"Nie Jingnian? Isn't he the big brother of the Renyong Martial Arts Academy? What is he doing?"

"I heard that he was originally in charge of the south gate, but because he was injured and unable to defend, he was deceived by Yu Guizhi from Chenfeng Martial Arts Hall, which led Wei Hongbin's cavalry to enter the city."

"Hey, I don't blame him for this matter. After all, who would have expected that the people of Chenfeng Martial Arts Hall would do such a thing before this?"

"But no matter what, the city gate was also thrown from his hands, and he really can't get rid of it."

Amidst the discussions, Nie Jingnian bowed his head and remained silent, as if he would never return his words.

Shang Tiefeng sat on the chair and sipped his tea with his head down, as if he didn't see his disciple kneeling on the ground at all.

At this moment, a warm hand stretched out diagonally and rested on Nie Jingnian's shoulder.

Nie Jingnian looked up and saw Zhao Ya standing in front of him, looking at him with a smile.

"Okay, get up quickly, everyone didn't blame you, after all, you were injured defending the city gate, then Yu Guizhi stole the city gate when you were not prepared, if you want to blame it, you can blame them, how can you blame it?" Do you want to work?"

As he spoke, Zhao Ya looked at everyone, "What do you think?"

Now Zhao Ya's prestige among the warriors in the county is very high. After all, if he hadn't insisted on this beast tide, it would be impossible to repel it so quickly.

Seeing that he has spoken now, everyone naturally echoed.

"That's right, Senior Brother Nie, no one blames you for this matter, and you don't have to put so much pressure on yourself, get up!"

"Yes, get up!"

Amidst the din, Nie Jingnian stood up, lowered his head, and whispered something to Zhao Ya.

"Thank you."

Zhao Ya smiled, but didn't say anything.

He was very aware of Nie Jingnian's temper, and knew that this person couldn't hide things in his heart, so he had to speak out when he had something to say.

This incident obviously caused him great pressure, so he made the astonishing act of kneeling in public.

Faced with such a situation, as his master, Shang Tiefeng must have no way to speak.

After all, no matter what he said, it would look embarrassing.

It's best to come out on your own.

At this time, Zhao Ya clasped his fists at everyone, "Everyone, I believe everyone already understands the current situation in the city. Since Wei Hongbin's entry into the city has become a fact, then we must unite even more so that we will not be manipulated by him."

The crowd clapped.

"Brother Zhao is right!"

"Just listen to Senior Brother Zhao, whoever dares to have small thoughts and destroy the unity, I will be the first to kill him."

"The old man also fully supports."

For a while the crowd was raging, Zhao Ya thanked them one by one, and then the crowd dispersed.

Shang Tiefeng was the last to leave. Before leaving, he suddenly patted Zhao Ya's shoulder.

"Xiaoya, what happened this time is thanks to you."

Knowing that he was talking about Nie Jingnian, Zhao Ya couldn't help but smile.

"Master Shang, you are being polite. Jingnian and I are good friends. Even if others don't help me with this matter, I have to help."

Shang Tiefeng nodded, looked around and saw no one around, then lowered his voice and said, "How is your master?"

Naturally, there is no need to hide it from Shang Tiefeng, Zhao Ya sighed.

"I just came from behind, and the situation is still not very good. I have been in a coma for a long time, and it is obvious that I have hurt my blood."

Shang Tiefeng was silent for a moment, then took out a small box from his arms and handed it to Zhao Ya.

"This is the healing elixir that I got when I was walking in the rivers and lakes. It is from the hands of famous experts. The curative effect is very good. See if it can help your master."

Zhao Ya didn't refuse either.

At this time, it would be hypocritical to push back and forth.

So he reached out to take the small box, and fisted very solemnly.

"Thank you, Uncle Shang."

Shang Tiefeng smiled.

"Okay, they are all from my own family, so why are you so polite, but there is something I have to remind you."

Speaking of this, Shang Tiefeng's face became serious.

"You trampled a cavalryman to death in the street this time, then Wei Hongbin will never let it go, and will most likely target you. Do you know why?"

Zhao Ya was silent for a moment, then said: "Because of my master."

"That's right, you can't hide the fact that your master was injured. Although Lao Jin and I were also injured, at least the two of us can move freely. Outsiders can't see the clues, so naturally we dare not act rashly."

"But your master, Lao Lu, is in a coma. This puts you and Dingtai Martial Arts in an extremely dangerous situation, especially Yuan Chenfeng, who is narrow-minded and cares about pennies and pennies. Back then you beat him twice. As an apprentice, he has long held a grudge, but because of your master sitting in charge, he dare not do anything."

"Now with Wei Hongbin's influence, he will definitely take action. Although you and I are in the same spirit now, I will never stand still, but there has always been only a thief for a thousand days, and there is no one who guards against a thief for a thousand days. My boss and I Jin also has to heal his wounds in secret, it is impossible to stare at him every day, so you and your brothers and sisters also have to cheer up and take precautions."

Hearing Shang Tiefeng's words, Zhao Ya was very moved.

Because he could see that this old man really took care of him as a junior, and these words came from the bottom of his heart.

So he clasped his fist very solemnly.

"Thank you Master Shang for your teaching, I understand it in my heart."

"That's good. I'm more at ease when you do things. Remember, if there are no special circumstances during this period, try to go out as little as possible. If there is anything, please notify me and Lao Jin as soon as possible. After your master wakes up, the situation will improve. gone."

"Yes!"

Shang Tiefeng left.

Today's battle in the mountains and forests caused him to suffer a lot of internal injuries, but he has been relying on his deep skills to hold on.

After returning, he had to heal his injuries behind closed doors, otherwise, if the root cause of the disease remained, it would be troublesome.

Just as he watched Shang Tiefeng leave, Jiao Yousong from Guangrui Martial Arts came.

Although Zhao Ya didn't get along with him for a long time, he only had brief contact when he was defending the North Gate.

But now the two have a tacit understanding like old friends for many years, Jiao Yousong took out a delicate small jar and handed it to Zhao Ya.

"This is the blood-activating and stasis-removing ointment secreted by our martial arts school. It has miraculous effects on healing trauma and bone fractures. Master asked me to bring it to you to see if it can help Uncle Lu."

Zhao Ya took the jar and thanked him solemnly again.

Hearing this, Jiao Yousong touched his shiny head with his hands, and laughed.

"They are all brothers from my own family. Why are you so polite? My master said that Dingtai Martial Arts may be busy during this period. Anyway, I am idle. I will come here every day to see who is so short-sighted." , dare to come here to make trouble."

At the end, a killing intent flashed across Jiao Yousong's face.

Apparently, this seemingly simple and strong man is actually not a good stubble.

"Senior brother Laojiao is here, but there is no need to make such a big battle. If something happens, I will inform you. I hope that senior brother Jiao will help you when the time comes."

"That's natural. It just so happens that I've gotten a little tired of killing alien beasts recently, and I'm trying to kill a few people to relieve my boredom." Jiao Yousong laughed.

After he left, Zhao Ya returned to the back house with the wound medicine sent by the two families.

Lu Dingtai was still in a coma.

Meng Shiwen, Shen Dao, Miao Shaocheng, Xu De and others are waiting in the room at this time.

Meng Shiwen's eyes were red, obviously she had just cried.

She has followed Lu Dingtai since she was a child, and Lu Dingtai is also a teacher and a father to her, so the relationship is naturally very deep.

Zhao Ya sighed inwardly, walked to the bed and patted Meng Shiwen.

"Senior Sister, don't be sad. Master, the old man just lost some vitality. He will be fine after a few days of recuperation. This is the wound medicine sent by Guangrui and Renyong martial arts. You can use it for Master."

Meng Shiwen nodded when she heard the words, took the medicine box, first poured the internal medicine for Lu Dingtai, then applied the blood-activating and stasis-removing ointment on Lu Dingtai's hands, and finally bandaged them up.

After finishing all this, Lu Dingtai's breathing seemed to be much more stable.

Only then did Meng Shiwen breathe a sigh of relief, and then said: "You guys are very tired from fighting all day today, go down and rest, I'll just keep an eye on this place."

"How can I do that, senior sister, you are also tired all day today, let me take care of you." Xu De stepped forward.

"Don't argue with anyone. It's women who are careful about serving patients, so let me, the senior sister, do it." Meng Shiwen insisted.

Shen Dao, Zhao Ya and the others looked at each other, they had no choice but to say yes, and then backed out.

In such an extraordinary period, everyone would naturally not leave the martial arts hall, and even Xu De found a room to live in.

After these few days of fighting, everyone is indeed exhausted.

After washing up hastily, I fell asleep without even eating dinner.

A moment later, the snoring broke out loudly.

Zhao Ya did not sleep.

He closed his eyes and meditated, silently mobilizing his qi and blood, and didn't get up until Ding Gengtian.

After arriving in the courtyard, there are martial arts disciples patrolling the night, and the defense can be described as strict.

However, Zhao Ya couldn't be bothered at all. After performing the restraining breath, Zhao Ya plunged into the darkness without a sound, and disappeared after a few ups and downs.

The back house of the business mansion.

In a small garden in a bamboo forest, Shang Luoluo and Zui'er were sitting opposite each other, drinking tea and talking.

But it could be seen that Zui'er was out of her mind, her mind was not on this at all, her eyes were staring straight at the door, as if she was waiting for something.

Shang Luoluo naturally knew what Zui'er was waiting for, and couldn't help laughing secretly.

This little girl is really infatuated.

"Zi'er, it's getting so late, I guess your brother Xiaoya won't come, let's go to bed first, what's the matter, we can talk about it tomorrow, how about it?"

Zui'er stubbornly shook her head, "No, sister Luoluo, if you're sleepy, go to sleep, I'll wait here."

Shang Luoluo couldn't help smiling when he heard the words, "Then what if your brother Xiaoya doesn't come all night?"

"Then I'll just wait here overnight, isn't it very simple?" Zui'er took it for granted.

Shang Luoluo was startled, obviously she didn't expect Zui'er to answer like that, then she sighed quietly, and muttered in a low voice, "You're really a silly girl."

At this moment, the bamboo forest rustled outside the window, and then a person laughed loudly: "My drunk is not stupid."

"Brother Xiaoya!"

Hearing this voice, Zui'er was overjoyed, got up and ran out the door.

At this moment, Zhao Ya came in from the door, and Zui'er threw herself into his arms regardless of whether there was anyone present.

Zhao Ya smiled and patted her on the back, "Okay, I'm back. Someone is here, don't look like this."

Only then did Zui'er stand up blushing, not daring to look up at Shang Luoluo.

But Shang Luoluo was looking at the moonlight outside the window the whole time, as if wondering why the moon is so round today.

It wasn't until Zui'er stood up that she turned her wonderful eyes to look at Zhao Ya, and then smiled.

"You've come. If you don't come, the soul of your drunk will probably fly away."

Zui'er's face turned even redder, and she muttered in a low voice.

"It's... it's not."

Zhao Ya hugged her behind him so that she would not be so embarrassed, and then said with a smile.

"Okay, stop teasing her, she has a tender face."

"You know she's shy, why are you here so late?"

"Sorry, some things delayed me, so I'm late."

"Don't apologize to me, I didn't wait for you." Shang Luoluo said with a smile.

Zhao Ya also smiled.

He knew that this woman was eccentric and never forgiving.

"Then thank you."

"no need thank me?"

"Thank you for helping me take care of Zui Er."

Before going out of the city to face the alien beast, for the safety of Zui'er, Zhao Ya thought twice and finally sent her to Shang Luoluo.

This is done for two reasons.

One is because with the Dingtai Wuguan's elite, even Lu Dingtai taking action, the martial arts school is no longer safe, but even more dangerous.

After all, when those strange beasts or people with ulterior motives enter the city, the first ones to deal with must be the major martial arts halls.

The second is because Shang Luoluo is a cautious person, and there is a secret room and tunnel dug in the house. If something earth-shattering happens, he can hide temporarily to keep safe.

Of course, the reason why Zhao Ya knew about this was because Shang Luoluo told him.

After some comprehensive consideration, Zhao Ya finally decided to send Zui'er to the Shang Mansion to hide.

This is why Zhao Ya said before that he sent Zui'er to a very safe place.

After listening to Zhao Ya's thanks, Shang Luoluo pouted.

"No sincerity, how can you thank others like this."

"How can I thank you?"

"At least bring a few things over here."

"Next time, definitely next time."

Speaking of this, Zhao Ya and Shang Luoluo looked at each other and smiled.

"Sit down and have a cup of tea." Shang Luoluo said.

Zhao Ya nodded, "Okay!"

Because Zhao Ya knew that Shang Luoluo definitely didn't simply invite herself to drink tea, she must have something to say to herself.

It just so happened that I had something to ask her.

A small tea table, Zhao Ya and Shang Luoluo sat opposite each other.

Zui'er sat on the other side.

The silver-gray charcoal fire made the water in the pot tumbling, Shang Luoluo picked it up skillfully, and poured the water into the teacup.

The color of the teacup is bright and lustrous, which complements the emerald green tea, which is very pleasing to the eye.

And with the soaking in hot water, a burst of tea fragrance spreads out, refreshing.

Although Zhao Ya is not good at this way, he can smell the extraordinary quality of this tea.

"It's the dripping buds produced in Guangyuan County. Only a thousand catties are produced every year, and most of them are sent to the capital. A small bag is worth a hundred taels." Shang Luoluo introduced.

Zhao Ya took a sip and felt that his mouth and nose were fragrant, but then he put down the cup.

"It's delicious, but it's too expensive."

"Is it expensive? It's still cheap. Among those wealthy families in the capital, maybe even a housekeeper drinks this kind of tea." Shang Luoluo said lightly.

Zhao Ya was silent.

He knew that Shang Luoluo meant something.
