Universe Infinite Canteen.

Chapter 453 Tie
Malu sat in the shed, drinking the rice wine that the little leader of the Black Tiger Camp was unable to drink, while waiting for the previous group of people to go back for reinforcements.

This time he waited a little longer, and about an incense stick of time later someone came down from the mountain.

It seemed that there were more people coming than last time. Leading the group was a man with a red face and black beard, holding a large Guandao in his hand. From a distance, he looked like Guan Erye.

Malu thought that this time it would be the leader of the Black Tiger Village, Du Dalang, or his younger brother Du Erlang who would come forward, but when the man introduced himself, it was an unfamiliar name.

However, according to the red-faced man, he is the coach of the Black Tiger Camp, and in terms of martial arts alone, he is second only to the two leaders of the Black Tiger Camp.

Moreover, he was much more polite than the previous two groups of people. When they met, he first asked about Ma Lu's identity and background. When he learned that he was a disciple of Songxi Sword School, he showed surprise on his face.

Although the Songxi Sword Sect is not as big a force as the Beggars' Sect or the Tianlong Sect, it is well-known in Qingzhou and has a history of nearly a hundred years. The current leader, Master Chongyun, is also a top-notch master of the world.

It is quite rare to find someone so young who gives up his prestigious family and bright future to become a bandit in Wohugang.

However, when Malu told him that he owed Jilefang more than 30,000 taels of silver (the interest rate had increased during this period), the coach surnamed Song showed a look of realization on his face again.

As the coach of the Black Tiger Village, he was also the confidant of the Du brothers. He knew that although the several large mountain villages on Wohugang worked together when facing the officers and soldiers, there were frictions and fights between them on a daily basis.

The first and second in command have never been willing to be second in command in Wohugang forever, and have been eager to recruit talented people over the years.

Although there are many people who come to Wohugang to settle down every year, there are not many masters, and the Black Tiger Village does not have any obvious advantages compared to the other three villages.

Since this guy from Songxi Sword was able to defeat Xue Gui, the Saber Master, it shows that he has real skills. If we can recruit him to the Black Tiger Camp before others, it will be considered a great achievement.

Coach Song thought to himself that Tietou, who was beaten to death, was just an ordinary villager in the village. Although he had followed Erdu for quite a long time and was considered an old man, it would not be worth it to lose a master who could be recruited in order to avenge him.

Not to mention that the man surnamed He doesn't look weak. If a fight really starts, who knows how many more people will be lying down.

Of course, he still had to do the necessary superficial work, otherwise it would discourage the people below, and he also wanted to try the depth of the millipede himself.

So Coach Song suggested to Malu that they have a sparring match. If Malu could beat him, then all the previous events would be written off.

Malu agreed immediately.

As a result, the two played this game of cards for sixteen rounds, and the card deck went through two rounds before it ended in a draw.

After the fight, Coach Song put away his Guan Dao and laughed, "It was great! I haven't had such a satisfying fight in a long time. Brother He is really good at martial arts."

After a pause, he added, "I have long heard that Songxi's fast sword is the best sword technique in the world. It is as fast as thunder and lightning, but after learning it today, I feel that your school's internal skills are even more amazing. It can even reduce the consumption of true energy. It is really magical."

Malu pretended to be He Qisheng. Among his martial arts, only the Songxi Quick Sword was real. The rest were all the real Zen skills, but he used the name of Songxi Sword School. The light skills and self-defense skills were easy to deal with.

The card pack he had found in the ruined temple before had some that could be used, but the internal energy was a bit troublesome. The Little Changchun Kung Fu was too common in the martial arts world, and even if the name was changed, the effect would not change, and it would be easily recognized by others.

Therefore, Malu could only choose between Ice Skin Jade Body Art and Fire Toad Power. The Fire Toad Power card contained 13 points of true energy, and Malu was afraid that if he used it, he would scare the bandits on Wohugang.

Although the effect of the Ice Skin and Jade Body Technique is also quite amazing, because Shen Mei only practiced to the fifth level, at least the numbers are not that outrageous.

Of course, even if he changed the cards, it would not be difficult to defeat Coach Song. But there was no other way. If he wanted to enter the Black Tiger Camp, Ma Lu could not be too weak, but he could not be too strong either, because if he was too weak, he would not be worth recruiting, and if he was too strong, he would arouse the fear of the Du brothers.

They wanted to find helpers to expand the Black Tiger Camp, not to find a new boss for the Black Tiger Camp.

This is also the reason why Malu had to fight with the man with the Mo Dao for 6 rounds, and why he had to have a 16-round rally with Coach Song.

Ma Lu didn't blush or feel nervous when he heard what Coach Song said.

"This is a new internal skill that Master realized on his 70th birthday, so not many people outside know about it."

When mentioning Master Chongyun, Malu's face revealed a hint of guilt and helplessness.

"Master treated me like a father and son, but I didn't accomplish what he asked me to do, and I even betrayed the sect. Sigh... How sad Master would be if he knew."

Coach Song consoled him for a few words, and then couldn't wait to get straight to the point, "Brother Qi, you and I have been fighting fiercely for a long time. Although there is no winner, I can feel that you still held back. In this case, according to the agreement, the previous grudges will be written off."

He paused and continued.

"We are acquainted after fighting. Since you are going to the mountain, why don't you come to our Black Tiger Camp? Dalang and Erlang like young talents the most and will definitely welcome you with open arms. From now on, we will be a family. It will be wonderful to drink and eat meat together."

Before Malu could answer, another voice came from the mountain.

"Young man, don't be fooled by him. The two brothers in the Black Tiger Camp are not good people. Especially since you are bringing a delicate young lady with you, be careful not to let yourself fall into the tiger's mouth."

When Coach Song heard someone saying bad things about his village leader, he was about to retort, but when he turned around and saw the person coming, his expression changed again.

"Master Hong, what happened here has nothing to do with you."

Malu and Gu Qingyi did not expect that the visitor was Hong Xinghua, the leader of Xinghua Village. She was a woman dressed quite gorgeously in a fiery red long dress. When she smiled, the hearts of the men around her could not help but melt.

Gu Qingyi saw Malu was also staring at the red apricot blossoms, so she secretly stepped on him.

Hong Xinghua also noticed her little action, smiled slightly, and then said to Coach Song.

"How come it doesn't matter? There are experts coming down the mountain, but you are only allowed to recruit from Black Tiger Village, but not from Xinghua Village?"

After that, she looked at Ma Lu again, patted her chest and said, "Brother He, if you join my village, I will help you protect your wife. No matter you are in the village or not, I will make sure no one bullies her."

Malu seemed to be somewhat moved when he heard this. Coach Song was immediately anxious when he saw this. "Brother He, don't listen to what others say. Those rumors about the village chief are all false. Dalang and Erlang have always been very caring towards their own people."

Malu looked embarrassed and turned back to huddle with Gu Qingyi, as if they were discussing where to go. During this time, Gu Qingyi kept glancing at Hong Xinghua with a vigilant look on his face.

After a moment, Malu raised his head and said, "Um... I want to ask if there are any secret medicines in your village that can be used for cultivation?"
