Chapter 42
Li Jiang was in charge of killing and not burying him, but he was afraid that something might change if it was too late, so he pulled Yuan Chengzhi along and hurried on.
Not far out of the town, Li Jiang heard the sound of running from behind. Just as he was about to turn around to see who dared to catch up, he heard a female voice from behind calling: "You two young heroes, please wait a moment."
Now Yuan Chengzhi also heard it, stopped and pulled Li Jiang and said: "Junior brother, someone seems to be calling us."
Li Jiang hummed, turned around, and saw a girl running towards him from dozens of meters away.
Yuan Chengzhi and Li Jiang were silent, waiting quietly for her to come.
As the girl got closer and closer, Li Jiang could clearly see that this girl was about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a beautiful appearance. Perhaps because of the vigorous running, her cheeks were flushed, which made her really cute.
Two or three meters away, she stopped, took a few deep breaths, stared at Yuan Chengzhi with a pair of dark eyes, and did not speak.
Seeing this situation, Li Jiang had already guessed who she was, and calculated the time, she should be here.
However, Yuan Chengzhi was a little confused and didn't understand why this girl kept staring at him.
After a moment, the girl raised her lips and asked with bright eyes: "Are you Brother Yuan?"
"My name is Yuan Chengzhi, I don't know if I am the brother Yuan you are looking for." Yuan Chengzhi wondered.
"Do you know Aunt An?" the girl asked again.
As soon as Yuan Chengzhi heard about Aunt An, his childhood memories immediately came to mind. Then his whole body was shaken, his palms became hot, and he hurriedly said: "I know you, you are Xiaohui?"
The girl was so happy that she forgot about it. She held his hand and shouted: "Yes, yes! You are Brother Chengzhi." Suddenly remembering the difference between men and women, her face turned red and she put down her hand.
Yuan Chengzhi didn't pay attention, but said happily: "Xiaohui, why are you here?"
"Ahem!" Li Jiang couldn't stand it anymore and coughed twice, interrupting their reunion conversation.
After the two of them looked over, Li Jiang said, "Senior brother, have you forgotten the purpose of our coming here?"
"Oh, yes, Jun Xiang, we are here to look for Xiaohui." Yuan Chengzhi slapped his forehead and suddenly realized.
An Xiaohui listened to their conversation and was a little confused.
Just as Yuan Chengzhi was about to explain to her, Li Jiang stopped him with a wave of his hand and said, "Let's leave here first and wait until we get to Quzhou City."
"Uh" Yuan Chengzhi was a little hesitant because he remembered that he had promised Wen Qingqing to go with Li Jiang tonight. Quzhou City was too far away and it was not very convenient to come and go. He might have missed the time.
Seeing his appearance, Li Jiang felt relieved. His conversation with Wen Qingqing could be heard clearly with Li Jiang's level 10 hearing.
Since Yuan Chengzhi didn't want to leave, Li Jiang didn't force him and asked him and An Xiaohui to walk down the dirt road to a secluded place.
After taking off the baggage wrapped around his waist, Li Jiang handed it to An Xiaohui and said under her puzzled gaze: "Xiaohui, I am your brother Chengzhi's junior brother and also a disciple of Master Mu. This is your
You should keep the military pay that was robbed."
An Xiaohui looked excited after hearing this. She took the baggage in disbelief. As soon as she took it, she immediately realized that the senior brother was not lying and there was gold inside.
After Li Jiang took her over, he described to her the situation when he got back his military pay that day. He used extreme exaggeration to boast that he was unparalleled in loyalty and righteousness, not afraid of life and death, and how he managed to survive even the most devastating situations.
He succeeded, and finally sacrificed a knight and so on.
When An Xiaohui heard this, her mouth opened slightly and her eyes were dull.
But Yuan Chengzhi knew very well that what his junior brother said nicely was that they were just water bandits, and they were just trying to steal gold.
However, Yuan Chengzhi was a humble gentleman and did not want to reveal anyone's privacy, not to mention that he also agreed to such an arrangement at the time.
After An Xiaohui was surprised, she said: "Thank you two brothers for helping me. But, this, this is King Chuang's army salary, it was raised by Mr. Mu hard, how can I explain this to them?"
"Just tell them the truth, and I will bear all the consequences." Li Jiang said grandly.
"Oh," An Xiaohui thought for a while. Since Master Mu's disciples vouched for it, she had no choice but to report it truthfully.
Leaving An Xiaohui where he was, Li Jiang pulled Yuan Chengzhi away a little further. After guessing that she couldn't hear the sound, he solemnly said: "Brother, I know you promised Miss Wen that you will go with me to find her tonight.
Her mother, but after all, I injured many people in her family, it’s not appropriate to go there anymore, so you go on my behalf!”
Yuan Chengzhi was taken aback, and his heart was filled with turmoil, and he quickly asked: "How did you know..." Before he finished speaking, he realized that this junior brother's martial arts was much more advanced than his own, and there must be a way to hear the sound from very far away.
sound.
"Miss Qingqing wants to ask about her father, but I don't know!" Yuan Chengzhi said after calming down.
Li Jiang smiled and thought, "I know you want to go." So he replied: "You don't know, I know, I can just tell you now."
Then, Li Jiang told Yuan Chengzhi how he found the golden snake treasure. These were all true. As for why he didn't tell him later, it was because he thought it was an evil Kung Fu, so he destroyed it on the spot to avoid harming others and the master was busy.
Just forget about it.
As for how I learned the Golden Snake Kung Fu, it was because my memory was so good that I inevitably saw the graphics on the stone wall when erasing them, so I remembered a few.
Regardless of whether Yuan Chengzhi believed it or not, Li Jiang assumed that he believed it anyway.
After Li Jiang finished telling the story, he and Yuan Chengzhi returned to An Xiaohui, pointed at Yuan Chengzhi and told An Xiaohui that he would escort you to transport the military pay. He had to leave first if he had something to do, and asked her to listen to Yuan Chengzhi's arrangements.
An Xiaohui didn't have anything to say. Apart from feeling that this young hero was tall and handsome, she was just grateful. Yuan Chengzhi was a little reluctant to part with him.
Although the two had a normal relationship in Huashan, they were still disciples of the same master. Now that they had gone down the mountain and entered the world, they naturally had a close relationship. But they had only met for a few days, and when they heard that Li Jiang was leaving again, Yuan Chengzhi felt certain in his heart.
I have mixed feelings. I want him to stay, but I don't want him to have another conflict with Wen Qingqing's family.
After struggling for a long time, he thought about this junior brother's character: he is shrewd, loves to show off, and the most important thing is that he will never look back after making a decision.
Yuan Chengzhi had no choice but to say reluctantly: "Junior brother, take care. After you finish your work, you'd better come to the camp to meet the master." He still had the idea of pulling Li Jiang Luocao.
Li Jiang was noncommittal and said yes, waved to An Xiaohui again, turned around and left in a dashing way.
The two of them watched Li Jiang's back walking further and further until he disappeared, then they looked back and prepared to find a farmer to stay.
Li Jiang doesn't care about their funerals because he believes that Yuan Chengzhi and An Xiaohui will not encounter any big problems. After all, Wenjiazhuang's high-end combat power has been disabled by himself, and no one can pose a threat to them.
So Li Jiang ran to Quzhou with peace of mind.
When passing by Shiliang Mountain, Li Jiang felt a little regretful. In order to avoid entanglement, he could no longer go to seek secluded places to cleanse his soul. It was a pity.
It was very fast to start my Qinggong journey. It only took half an hour to return to Quzhou from Shiliang Town, which was much faster than traveling by horse-drawn carriage.
Li Jiang found a random inn and spent the night meditating and resting to replenish his depleted internal energy.
