Zhutian: Everything starts from becoming a disciple of Uncle Jiu!

Chapter 369 Zhao Zheng: Hey, Brother Tianran, why are you going to kill Zhu Qianlong? (Please subscribe!)

Teahouse,

It is not really a teahouse, because it also sells home-cooked dishes and drinks, and has many customers. Its status is similar to that of a rural highway service area that is bound to be used by long-distance buses.

Even the nearest Pucheng is more than 20 miles away, which is the kind of place where there is no village or shop nearby.

"Boss, give me a bowl of noodles."

Bai Ling took out a large coin with both hands, looking a little embarrassed. The teahouse owner looked at Bai Ling and the children behind her.

"You guys only eat one bowl?"

He didn't mean to do this business, but when he heard the rumbling stomachs of these children, he took the money helplessly and turned to his wife and shouted, "Noodles..."

"I'm asking!"

A voice interrupted the teahouse owner's words. He turned around and saw the other party throwing a dollar at him. He quickly reached out to take it and blew it, then looked at this guest who didn't look like an ordinary person with a happy expression.

"Okay, sir."

The teahouse owner turned around and counted the children that Bai Ling brought with him, then said to his wife who was pouring wine, "Ten bowls of noodles!"

"Remember to find me if you have any extra ones!"

"..."

have to,
It’s no use calling you master.

The teahouse owner's smile froze, but after seeing the other person's clothes, he still forced a smile and said, "Yes, yes, yes!"

After saying that, he walked towards the stove to cook noodles. However, after taking a few steps, he frowned and glanced at the guests who were no longer talking and laughing, but staring at the gentleman instead.

He opened his mouth, then pursed it in the end and went to cook noodles obediently, then opened the back door of the teahouse without making a sound.

Bai Ling came back to her senses from the other party's stunningly handsome looks, and sighed that even Pan An reborn would be no more than this, and then expressed gratitude.

"Thank you so much..."

Bai Ling said this and glanced at the students she brought with her. The students all stood up and said to the handsome guy who invited them to dinner.

“Thank you for treating us to dinner!”

"You are a good guy!"

"You are a very good person!"

The clear voices of children rang out, and the handsome guy, Zhao Zheng, smiled and said, "If you really want to thank me..."

"Will you guys shut up?!"

“???”×9+1+…

Bai Ling and others were stunned, and the guests were also stunned. Zhao Zheng looked at the nine naughty children with an expressionless face.

"Yes, you guys are too noisy, can you shut up?"

It's not so-called kindness. There are many poor people in this world, and there are people who are more pitiful than these children who have no food to eat.

Zhao Zheng just felt that these naughty kids were too noisy. They kept chattering after they broke into the store.
It reminded him of the naughty kids and their parents who accidentally fell out of the car and died when he was on a business trip in his previous life.

"I'm sorry, they..."

Bai Ling forced out an apologetic smile, but before she could finish, Zhao Zheng waved his hand and interrupted, "Just be quiet."

"Hmph, I won't eat anymore..."

"We didn't talk..."

"Teacher Bai didn't say anything about us, so why are you saying anything about us..."

The naughty kids said angrily. The teahouse owner who had just thrown the noodles into the pot looked at the hand that was one step faster in silence.
OK,

This gentleman's business is really difficult!
Bah, why are you calling me master again!

"Sir, they are not..."

Bai Ling stopped talking. After seeing the gun Zhao Zheng took out, she fell silent. After seeing the gun in Zhao Zheng's hand, those naughty kids also hid behind Bai Ling with fear on their faces and fell silent.

The bandits who had been eyeing Zhao Zheng with fear now lowered their heads and ate their food. The teahouse owner who was eating noodles felt that business was becoming too damn difficult!
"Hey, why is there no sound? You guys don't know why there is sudden silence, right... right... right..." Ma Feng, who was no longer sleeping on the table, also raised his hands stutteringly.

Raise your hands as Zhao Zheng's gun points at you!
"Haha, if you have something to say, just talk it out. Why are you getting angry with a bunch of kids..." Ma Feng smiled and moved his body.

He just moved, and his pupils shrank as Zhao Zheng's gun was still pointed at him steadily, and he thought to himself that he was a master.

Ma Feng looked at the chopstick holder on the table calmly. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Zhao Zheng looking at him in surprise.

"Brother Tianran?"

As he said that, Zhao Zheng put away his pistol, which made Ma Feng stunned. Before he could figure out who was Tianran, he saw Zhao Zheng looking at him and said.

"Did you kill Zhu Qianlong?"

"what?"

"Huh? You're not Li Tianran?"

"Of course not, my name is Ma Feng."

Ma Feng shook his head subconsciously, only to see Zhao Zheng said with a look of pity: "You recognized the wrong person. Well, I wanted you to take me to see the fundamental treasure. It's a pity that I just learned how to give an injection."

"???"

The Fundamental Treasure? An injection? What is this all about? Could it be that this Fundamental Treasure is sick?
Ma Feng looked at Zhao Zheng thoughtfully, then asked curiously, "Am I really that similar to the Li Tianran you know?"

"I can't say they are exactly the same, I can only say... they are not much different."

"..."

You said the same thing as if you had spoken!
Ma Feng could see that this rich young man with an unusual appearance was... not teasing him for fun,
Well, he felt that Li Tianran must be a real person!

"Boss, give me some money."

Zhao Zheng said to the teahouse owner, who immediately put on a fawning smile and said yes, yes, yes, and came to Zhao Zheng to give him change.

"too much……"

Zhao Zheng took a look at the price of noodles and the tea he ordered on the sign, returned a few dollars to the teahouse owner, then smiled and waved at Ma Feng and Bai Ling who was protecting the chicks.

"See you."

"No, it's better not to see you."

Ma Feng complained in his heart, but still smiled as he watched Zhao Zheng leave. After Zhao Zheng left, he turned around and looked at Bai Ling and the group of kids: "To be honest, it was really noisy."

"..."

Bai Ling suppressed her gratitude. Ma Feng was about to leave, but when he saw some guests at those tables looking around, his eyes moved and he slapped the table and said to the teahouse owner.

"Boss, give me a bowl of noodles too!"

"……it is good!"

Therefore,
Why did I open this store in the first place?
The teahouse owner was startled and thought Zhao Zheng had come back to shoot. He said expressionlessly, until a moment later,

Along with the shouts of robbery and the sounds of weapons being unsheathed, the teahouse owner who saw this group of bandits felt that it would be better to close the teahouse. Damn it, he might as well quit this job.

The teahouse owner hugged his wife and hid under the table tremblingly, cursing in his heart, feeling that he was too unlucky.

quickly,

Accompanied by several screams.

The bandits who were beaten by Ma Feng only felt that they were even more unlucky. Why did the one with a gun leave, and here was a martial artist?
And they can't beat this martial artist!
"Tsk, if I can't deal with him, I can't deal with you bandits either." Ma Feng muttered softly, took the money bag from the bandit's waist, took out a few big coins and threw them to the teahouse owner.

Then he said to the group of bandits.

"get out."

As he said that, he returned the purse to the bandit. The group of naughty kids cried out in surprise as they watched the bandits leave.

Ma Feng looked at the group of naughty kids with disdain, but after hearing them change his name from Zhu Bajie to Sun Wukong, he smiled with satisfaction, while Bai Ling said with gratitude on her face.

"Thank you!"

"You're welcome, but you should ask the boss to get the noodles out for you quickly, otherwise they won't taste good later..." Ma Feng yawned and waved his hand. Bang! Bang! Bang——

A series of dense gunshots rang out from outside the teahouse. Seeing Bai Ling and the other diners who were frightened and panicked, Ma Feng frowned, quickly opened the door that was closed by the bandits, and went outside. What he saw was a group of soldiers on the road.

The soldiers were riding horses in front and walking in the back. A rough count showed that there were more than a thousand of them. Some of Ma Feng's acquaintances were lying in the grass beside the road.

The familiar people were none other than the group of bandits, but there were more bullet holes on their bodies. Ma Feng frowned when he saw this scene.

"Have you seen this person?"

A man dressed as an adjutant and riding a white horse saw Ma Feng standing at the door of the teahouse, stopped his horse, and took out a portrait to display it.

"I have seen him. He went towards Pucheng."

Ma Feng looked at the familiar person in the portrait, or rather Zhao Zheng's eyes were thoughtful, and he did not hide it, but pointed in the direction of Pucheng.

Well, he noticed it when Zhao Zheng left.

"Thank you!"

"No need, but...did you kill those people?" Ma Feng's words were a bit nonsense, and the adjutant laughed.

"What do you think?"

"They are human beings, are you just going to kill them like this..." Ma Feng frowned, and heard the adjutant frown and hum.

As the bolt was pulled, Ma Feng took a deep breath and looked at the man who was pointing his gun at him, and the adjutant waved his hand.

After the soldier took the gun, he looked at the teahouse and the bearded man in front of him with a strange expression.

"You chased these people away, didn't you? Well, it seems that my guess is correct, but have you ever thought about what the owner of the teahouse would do if they came back to retaliate after you left?"

The adjutant looked at Ma Feng, who frowned for a moment, and laughed loudly. He stepped on the horse's back and rode away: "Young man, I don't think you are young."

After that, with the adjutant's order to go, the soldiers continued to advance along the official road towards Pucheng in the distance. However, in just a few dozen breaths, they disappeared in the teahouse and headed towards Pucheng.

Ma Feng was left scratching his head with a frown on his face, looking at the departing adjutant: "Is this guy calling me naive?"

Bai Ling, who had just walked out of the teahouse, did not pay any attention to these soldiers as they left. She just frowned at the soldiers who were dressed differently from Cao's army. She wondered which general's soldiers these were and thought to herself that something was not right.

"Are they going to Pucheng?"

Bai Ling looked at Ma Feng anxiously. Her cousin Tie Niu was in Pucheng. Ma Feng shook his head and said, "I don't know, but they are looking for the young master just now."

"With a gun?"

"..."

in fact,

You should have said I would treat you to noodles!

Ma Feng nodded, looking strangely at Bai Ling who was relieved, and then at the soldiers walking away in front of him, he sighed: "This world is becoming more and more unstable..."

hold head high?
Taiping, who was eating grass, turned to look at Ma Feng. Ma Feng said with a dark face: "I'm not talking about you, what are you looking at..."

……

The teahouse is a few miles north.

"Cao Ren meets Master Zheng!"

The adjutant dismounted and respectfully addressed Zhao Zheng. The other commanders and soldiers also saluted. Zhao Zheng looked surprised and said, "You are Uncle Cao's man. I don't think I have seen you before?"

In fact, he wanted to ask if the other party had a brother named Cao Cao.

"Your Excellency Young Master Zheng, I had the honor of meeting you before in Fengping Town." Cao Ren said with a smile, lowering his head.

"Oh, I remember, it's you. Where is Uncle Cao now? Is he still in Stone City?" Zhao Zheng asked curiously.

As the old saying goes, it’s better to be cautious, so before he came, he sent a telegram to Cao Ying, finding out where Cao Ying was and also telling him when he would arrive!

"Yes, the Marshal originally wanted to come and pick you up in person, but the Young Marshal..." Cao Ren had a strange look on his face. He looked back at the soldiers, waved his hand, and waited for the soldiers to retreat.

"Young Marshal has disappeared again. The Marshal is now searching the whole city for him. And this is not the key point. The key point is that there are rumors in the city that Marshal Hong has kidnapped the young marshal..."

Cao Ren whispered the reason why Cao Ying didn't come. The reason why he said so much was mainly because his eldest brother, bah, his commander-in-chief told him that Zhao Zheng was a family member.

"Forehead……"

No need to look for it,
He should be here early tomorrow morning.
And don’t eat beef noodles early in the morning!

Zhao Zheng complained in his heart, and the two chatted for a while. He refused the invitation to go to Stone City, but took out a magic letter and handed it to Cao Ren.

"Remember to give it to Uncle Cao when you get back."

"Yes, Master Zheng, shall we go then?"

"Well, see you tomorrow."

"Uh... ok."

Cao Ren nodded, wondering if Zhao Zheng meant that he should come pick him up tomorrow.
Then he left with a group of soldiers.

Watching Cao Ren and his companions leave, Zhao Zheng looked towards the southeast and muttered, "I wonder where Marshal Long and his companions are now? Calculating the time, a group of people should arrive the day after tomorrow..."

As he thought about it, he opened the sleeve of his left hand, took out the silver dollar, looked at the hexagram and breathed a sigh of relief when he was sure that it was still in time.

There was no other way. Seeing that his Uncle Cao was about to die, he couldn't just remain indifferent. Well, actually, it had little to do with this, and it had little to do with his Taifu either.
He came here mainly on a whim.

This may seem a bit unfair, but let's put it this way, given the relationship between him and Cao Ying, he shouldn't have acted on a whim, but he did.

However, since he was already here, he might as well come and take a look. But before coming, in order to prevent any accidents, he sent a telegram to Marshal Long and Marshal Xu.

I also sent some stuff in advance.

"Is Patriarch Changming really not dead? Or is it because I changed Yue Qiluo's fate that this sudden impulse occurred to him?"

Zhao Zheng activated his destiny-seeking ability and found that there was no difference in his ability. Then, he thought of another question.
That's because the time is wrong. I think about the opening scene of the original novel of the movie "The Danger Zone" which said it would be 14 years, and then I think about the fact that it's only been 12 years now.

Well, it’s normal if it’s not right.
Cao Ying doesn’t have an army of 100,000 now!
"The plot is advanced again? Is it because of the plot of the Taoist zombie? Never mind. It's not a big deal anyway."

and,

He couldn't figure out this problem.

Zhao Zheng, too lazy to think about this puzzled problem, flew into the sky invisibly and soon arrived at Pucheng. He found an empty alley to land, removed his invisibility and started wandering around the city.

Although Pucheng is a city, it is not as prosperous as Renjia Town and Gantian Town. Well, this can be seen from the fact that there are no electric wires.

However, the brothels in Pucheng are quite prosperous, not much different from those in Renjia Town. As for other things, there are some big differences.
The overall prosperity is similar to that of Jiuquan Town.

Hmm? Making wine, that's even more like it.

Zhao Zheng looked up and saw a large winery workshop in the north of the city, as well as roadside stalls selling wine.

After wandering around the snack stalls for a while and buying some snacks, he was about to go back to Yue Qiluo to study the power output of his Demon-Slaying Blood when he saw a man looking at him, or rather, a caring citizen, Mr. Liu.

Oh, the other person's surname here is Yang,
His occupation is the captain of the security team in Pucheng.

"Stranger?"

"you ask me?"

Zhao Zheng looked left and right, pointed at himself, looked at Yang Kenan, nodded and said yes, which made the corners of his mouth twitch a few times.
People here are really nosy!

Hmm? I'll ask Awei to do the same thing later!
"Yes, outsider, but you shouldn't ask me where I came from, but ask those people?" Zhao Zheng pointed in the direction of the city gate. Yang Kenan frowned and before he could say anything, he heard Tie Niu's panting voice coming from behind him.

"Captain, it's bad. There are a lot of refugees outside the city. You should go and take a look..." Tie Niu ran to Yang Kenan quickly, but was slightly startled when he saw Zhao Zheng. He smiled and nodded to Zhao Zheng.

"understood……"

Yang Kenan frowned and looked at Zhao Zheng, then led Tie Niu towards the city gate. Zhao Zheng sighed, "The people are the ones who suffer the most..."

After saying that, he looked up at Yue Qiluo who opened the window of the inn nearby. He raised his hand and shook the snacks in his hand. Yue Qiluo shook her head and pointed at the noodle shop nearby with her little hand.

"..."

No, I'm just being polite to you, are you really ordering me around? Zhao Zheng wanted to throw away the snacks, but Xiao Zhao disagreed. He had no choice but to buy two bowls of noodles...
