Martial Arts: Opening Awakening

Chapter 138

In order to keep out of sight and out of mind, Zhou Yunlong simply sent Jiangnan out again to recall those bodyguards who were still looking for the whereabouts of Zhang Sanshun and others.

Jiang Nan didn't care either.

Now that the Zhaoye Jade Lion has been snatched back, there is no need for these people to waste any more time.

Fortunately, both sides of Fenglingdu are just small towns with a small population, so it is not too difficult to find people in the south of the Yangtze River.

When Jiangnan rushed back with the bodyguards, he unexpectedly found that Zhou Xiaomeng was nowhere to be seen.

The white horse was led to Zhou Yunlong's tent deep in the camp.

All the bodyguards expressed their congratulations one after another.

Zhou Yunlong said that everyone had worked hard all day, and seeing that it was getting late, they would not hurry today.Anyway, once on land, there is no need to be afraid of those water bandits of the Changhe Gang.Just arrange for more people to be on duty.

The bodyguards naturally have no objection to being able to rest earlier.

Jiang Nan felt a little strange.

Zhou Xiaomeng had already mentioned the lame master to Zhou Yunlong, and with Zhang Sanshun, the other party already had two stellar masters.

As for our own side, there is only one and a half.

One is Zhou Yunlong, and the other half is naturally Zhou Xiaomeng.

Although Zhou Xiaomeng is only in the Sea of ​​Qi state, he has already completed the sea of ​​Qi, and he is practicing the advanced swordsmanship of Huashan Sword School, which is enough to be half a master of Sea of ​​Qi.

"Could it be that the head of the bodyguard this week has the confidence to fight two against one?"

After losing the Zhaoye Jade Lion and the death of so many subordinates, when Zhang Sanshun comes back, he will definitely come to find his way back.

In fact, the best way is to ignore those bodyguards who went out, and immediately take the Zhaoye Jade Lion into battle as soon as the Jiangnan two came back, so as not to give the water bandits a chance to gather and attack.

Jiang Nan didn't understand why Zhou Yunlong would stay here with great fanfare.

but.

Jiang Nan couldn't figure it out, and he didn't think about it anymore.

Taking the employee's wages to mess with the boss's heart is not only not beneficial, but will also make the boss jealous.

The worst result is just running away.

This place is not far from the Changhe River, and Jiangnan is quite confident about running.

really.

Before the bodyguards had finished their dinner, the members of the Changhe Gang had already arrived.

Besides Zhang Sanshun and Lame, there were another forty or fifty others.As far as the number of people is concerned, it is exactly twice that of Liuyun Escort.

"Zhou Yunlong, hand over the Zhaoye Jade Lion, and then hand over that kid to my second uncle for disposal, and then take another 2 taels of silver notes as compensation for your daughter killing my brothers. A certain family can consider it and give it to you Father and daughter live together." Zhang Sanshun shouted at Zhou Yunlong with a murderous look.

All the bodyguards were taken aback, not knowing who "that kid" Zhang Sanshun was talking about.

Only Jiang Nan's heart skipped a beat, he didn't expect the cripple to hold grudges so much, and asked Zhang Sanshun to name him.

"Damn! You really think that the Changhe gang can do whatever they want!" Zhou Yunlong spat hard, and said coldly: "This is not on the Changhe!"

Clenching the long sword tightly, he was already ready to strike.

"Boy Zhang, how can there be so much nonsense! You stop this Zhou, and I will kill all the rest. At that time, whether it is round or flat, you can make it up to you." The lame man next to Zhang Sanshun, eyes He glared at Jiang Nan in the bodyguard team with redness, and said irritably.

Obviously not wanting to wait a moment.

"Alright." Zhang Sanshun nodded helplessly.

Hearing what happened in the courtyard from the surviving subordinates, he knew that his second uncle was almost mad with anger.

At this time, he could only let him go.

"That girl from Huashan Sword Sect, don't hurt too much." Zhang Sanshun added a reminder.

Zhou Xiaomeng has a special status, so it would be better if he could not offend the Huashan Sword Sect to death.

The Huashan Sword Sect may not be in charge of seizing the dart, because that is the private matter of the Liuyun Escort Bureau.

But if he was seriously injured or killed, it would hurt the face of Huashan Sword Sect, it would be difficult to say.

"got it."

The cripple responded impatiently, and immediately swung his crutches towards Jiangnan in the crowd.

Zhou Yunlong wanted to stop him, but Zhang Sanshun waved his long knife to stop him: "Hey, Mr. Zhou, your opponent is a certain company!"

The bodyguards didn't know how bad the lame man was. Seeing that the other party looked down on him so much, they immediately waved their weapons to meet him.

"Bang - bang - bang bang..."

In an instant, the bodyguard who went up to him fell to the ground.

Whether it is the inner breath of the eighth rank, the Tongmai of the seventh rank, or the sea of ​​Qi of the sixth rank.

"Straight mother thief! What a cripple!"

Zhao Wu, who was about to rush forward, exclaimed, and retreated instinctively behind Jiangnan.

Jiang Nan curled his mouth, he had no choice but to take out a cloth bag from his arms, and threw it at the cripple who had rushed to him.

The cripple had seen the methods of the Jiangnan medicine and water bandits, and knew that this bitch was full of tricks and had powerful medicine powder on him.Not daring to be negligent at the moment, he hastily stopped, touched the ground with his crutches, and used his strength to jump backwards for more than a foot, and dodged.

The cloth bag spread out in the air, throwing out a large amount of white dust, which filled the air with a choking smell.

The lame frowned.

It was found that the white dust was somewhat like the lime used by punks to fight.

However, I am not sure.

Lime is such a cheap thing that it is okay against ordinary people and low-level warriors, but it has little effect on mid-level and high-level warriors above the sixth rank.

With the heart of this bitch, it is obviously impossible to use such almost useless things to plot against himself.

"Could it be that this is not ordinary lime?"

"It's just using lime as a cover to make people take it lightly. There are actually other powerful poisons hidden in it?"

The cripple was suspicious.

I feel that with this bitch's peeing nature, this kind of thing can definitely be done.

The cripple didn't dare to act rashly, and while holding his breath to be on guard, he tore off his sleeve and covered his mouth and nose.

After all the dust dissipated and confirmed that he was not poisoned, he was about to wave his crutches and rush towards Jiangnan again, but he couldn't find Jiangnan's figure anywhere.

The cripple froze.

Grabbing a nearby member of the Changhe Gang with his backhand, he asked anxiously, "Did you see that bitch?"

"Which one?"

"It's the limer."

"nu—"

The lame man followed the minion's fingers, and found that Jiang Nan had climbed a nearby four or five feet tall tree at some point.

Seeing the cripple looked over, Jiang Nan smiled and made a face at the cripple: "Come up!"

Lame: "..."

"Go and cut down that tree!" The cripple shouted angrily at the minions beside him.

"No axe!" Minoru replied in a dilemma.

"Don't you have a knife in your hand?" The cripple pointed at the long knife in Minor's hand angrily.

All of you are stunned.

The long knife in his hand is a kind of slender Miao knife, not more than three inches wide and less than one inch thick.

If I use this thing to chop down the big tree thicker than a bucket, I am afraid that my seedling knife will be broken in less than two cuts.

The cripple obviously reacted, and cursed angrily, "Trash!"

Sweeping his eyes among the crowd fighting around him, he caught a glimpse of a thick-backed machete in the hands of a bodyguard.

Like a tiger entering a herd of sheep, he directly smashed the bodyguard's head with a cane, and snatched the machete.

"Hum Chi Hm Chi" to the big tree and cut it up.

With the blessing of internal strength, the cripple can chop and count very quickly, even the bald man who is famous for chopping trees will probably be willing to bow down when he sees it.

Seeing that the root of the big tree has been cut in half, it will fall to the ground after a few more strokes, leaving Jiangnan with nowhere to escape.

However, Jiang Nan took his time, untied his trouser belt, and began to rain on the cripple under the tree.

The cripple was full of thoughts about how to concoct the bastard on the tree after cutting down the big tree. When the water dripped on his head and flowed down his cheek to the corner of his mouth, he subconsciously licked it before realizing what it was.

His expression froze suddenly.

Then he yelled, "Ah——"

He directly swung the machete in his hand and threw it at Jiangnan on the tree.

Jiang Nan lifted his trousers, leaned back, and the machete flew past Jiang Nan's waist.

Jiang Nan was taken aback.

Just a tiny bit short.

Seeing that the machete missed the hit, the lame man raised his crutch again, and slammed it hard at the remaining less than one-third of the connection at the root of the tree.

"Crack-"

The joints snapped, and the trees toppled over.

Before the tree trunk completely touched the ground, the lame man jumped on one foot and swung his crutch towards Jiangnan at the top of the tree.

Jiang Nan raised his hand, and threw another cloth bag over.

The lame hit the cloth bag with his crutch.

The cloth bag shattered, and a large piece of white dust flew out again.

The cripple smiled disdainfully, passed through the dust, and continued to pounce on Jiangnan.

"oops--"

Jiang Nan let out a strange cry and ran away.

The cripple hopped on one foot, chasing after him relentlessly.

pity!

Jiangnan was like a swimming fish, slippery and steadfast, circled a few times, but failed to catch up.

On the contrary, on the way to escape, Jiangnan knocked down several members of the Changhe Gang who were besieging the bodyguards.

Especially as the chase ran, the cripple's whole body became more and more itchy.

The cripple realized that the bitch must have added something like itching powder to the second pack of lime.

I was confused by the first pack of lime, thinking it was okay, and if I was careless, I was tricked.

The cripple roared angrily, but there was nothing he could do.

Fortunately, itching powder only makes the whole body itchy, not fatal.

"Second uncle, don't worry about that kid, go grab the horse first."

Zhang Sanshun, who was fighting Zhou Yunlong, yelled at the lame man.

When the lame thought about it, he was right.

If I can't catch up with you, I will take advantage of your weakness and force you to find me.

There were not as many bodyguards in the Liuyun Bodyguard Agency as there were in the Changhe Gang, and there were only a few low-level fighters guarding the white horse.

Seeing the cripple rushing over with a murderous look, he didn't dare to resist, so he just left the white horse and fled.

Jiangnan naturally couldn't let the lame man snatch the white horse away.

Otherwise, you really have to expose your hole cards and kill this cripple.

The cripple took a step ahead, and Jiang Nan was in no hurry to catch up.He casually grabbed a member of the Changhe Gang and threw it at the lame man.

The cripple stopped, raised his crutch and poked backhand, stabbing the accomplice to death.

Everyone who saw this scene felt cold all over, feeling the cruelty of the lame man.

After this delay, Jiangnan, who was using all his strength to ride the wind and cross the sea, finally took the opportunity to rush to the front of the lame man, turned over and climbed on the back of the white horse.

"drive--"

Jiang Nan drove the white horse, ready to ride the horse to lead the lame away.

Who knows.

As soon as the horse moved, Jiang Nan immediately noticed something was wrong.

This white horse is not the Zhaoyeyu lion that Zhou Xiaomeng rode back at all.

Jiang Nan twitched his nose and reached out to touch the horse hair.

really.

The pure white color of the horse's body was just dyed with dye.

Jiang Nan's thoughts turned, he drew his sword directly on the white horse's neck, and shouted: "Stop!"

The cripple froze for a moment, instinctively stopping.

Both the enemy and us in the scuffle around also heard the prestige, and stopped in surprise.

"Don't move! Otherwise, I'll stab the Zhaoye Jade Lion to death, and you'll all have nothing to do with it." Jiang Nan shouted loudly.

This Zhaoye Jade Lion is the goal of both sides, if it dies, it will be a waste of work.Hearing this, he did not dare to move.

"Boy! What do you mean?"

Zhang Sanshun asked Jiangnan with a gloomy face.

"Hehe. That's what you saw." Jiang Nan smiled frivolously, pointed at the cripple and said, "This cripple chases me endlessly, which makes me very unhappy. If you don't want to be caught dead, ask him to apologize to me and compensate me. I have 1 taels of silver. Otherwise, I will kill the Zhaoye Jade Lion, and everyone will die together."

"You..." The cripple's eyes were burning, and he was about to curse, but Zhang Sanshun stopped him.

I only finished blackmailing that little girl in the morning, and in the afternoon, I was counter-blackmailed by this bitch.

"Boy, do you know what the consequences will be if you do this?" Zhang Sanshun asked coldly.

Then, without waiting for Jiangnan's answer, he took the initiative to continue: "This Zhaoye Jade Lion is a bodyguard of your Liuyun Bodyguard Bureau. If you kill it, I'm afraid there is no need for someone to do it. Your head bodyguard will do it himself."

"so what?"

Jiang Nan asked back, and said disapprovingly: "Anyway, there are so many of you, and this cripple hates me to the bone, so it's a dead word anyway."

Zhang Sanshun choked when he heard the words, his expression changed.Then, he unexpectedly comforted him: "As long as you don't hurt this good horse, a certain family can promise to let you go."

"I don't believe you." Jiang Nan said bluntly.

"I can let you leave on this thousand-mile horse first." Zhang Sanshun gritted his teeth and said, "With the footsteps of the Zhaoye Jade Lion, as long as you go first, no one can catch up with you."

"Okay. I hope you keep your word. Once I find out that you are making small moves, I will stab you right away."

As Jiang Nan spoke, he stroked the long sword on the horse's neck a few times.

"Don't worry. A certain company keeps its word."

"Everyone spread out!" Zhang Sanshun shouted to his subordinates, making way for Jiangnan.

Jiang Nan pulled the rein, and the white horse slowly passed through the crowd that was already tense.

When passing by Zhou Yunlong, Jiang Nan deliberately stopped for a while, and said with an inexplicable smile: "Chief escort, remember to give me a bonus."

"drive--"

One person and one horse swaggered away.

Zhou Yunlong's expression was inexplicable.

Zhang Sanshun's eyes were cold.

After one person and one horse had completely disappeared, Zhang Sanshun snorted coldly at Zhou Yunlong: "Hmph! Chief Escort Zhou's play is really beautiful!"

"However, don't be too happy too early. As long as this person and horse are still in the Changhe Basin, don't even think about escaping from the grasp of my Changhe Gang. Let's wait and see!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and told his subordinates: "Catch me up! If you catch up, don't act rashly. I don't believe it. He also held his sword against the horse's neck when he was eating and drinking!"

The Changhe Gang retreated quickly.

"Chief Escort, then Li Qingshan has ridden the horse away, what shall we do now?" A bodyguard asked.

"It's okay. I have an agreement with him to meet up in Daliu Town, a hundred miles away. You pack up your things, and the injured ones treat their wounds, and we will set off later." Zhou Yunlong said with a smile.

"Chief Escort, so this is really the move you thought of?" The Escort exclaimed in surprise.

"Haha, I was taken aback at the time. I was afraid that Li Qingshan would be impulsive and destroy the dart. It turns out that you had planned to scare the water bandits of the Changhe Gang on purpose, so that they would not dare to continue to attack!"

"Haha! This move of yours is really high! You have mastered their thoughts!"

"Where is it?" Zhou Yunlong waved his hand modestly: "I just predicted them, I was greedy for the good horse, and I didn't want to hurt both of them..."

On the other side, Jiangnan rode a white horse and galloped for more than ten miles, and immediately jumped off the horse with some disgust.

Because of the rubbing along the way, the dye on the horse's body has been rubbed on Jiangnan's clothes.

Jiang Nan drew his sword and stabbed the horse's buttock, letting the horse gallop on its own.

Only then did he change his clothes, climbed up a big tree by the side of the road without haste, and waited for Zhou Yunlong and others to arrive.

After discovering that the white horse was a fake Zhaoye Jade Lion, Jiang Nan immediately understood why he didn't see Zhou Xiaomeng after returning.

It turned out that it was a trick of stealing the beam and replacing the post with Li Daitao.

The real Zhaoye Jade Lion must have been ridden by Zhou Xiaomeng and rushed to Jiangnan Road alone.

The reason why Zhou Yunlong stayed with great fanfare was to attract the attention of everyone in the Changhe Gang and buy time for Zhou Xiaomeng.

Therefore, Jiangnan naturally doesn't mind, and in his own way, add another icing on the cake.

Without Jiangnan's showmanship, Zhou Yunlong might be able to escape successfully by relying on martial arts, and the remaining bodyguards would inevitably be wiped out and reduced to bait and cannon fodder.

"I'm still too kind!" Jiang Nan sighed in his heart.
