Chapter 13 Lu Yecheng stays guests
Two years have passed, Wei Zeng is fifteen years old, he has grown taller than before, he has practiced martial arts and eats well, and Wei Zeng is also very strong now. Although Wei Zeng's face is immature, he also has maturity and sophistication that is not ready for age, and his resolute face is very calm. The hard work of his childhood has created his hard-working character, and his mother's years of teachings and dying advice have made Wei increase his self-esteem and self-love.
Two years ago, Wei Zeng began to escort caravans between various cities in Guanbei, although Guanbei is full of thieves and cults, but there are also many masters, and the protection of official forces and the protection of civilian warriors makes it possible to still have a rare peace around the city.
Although there are thieves in the places far from Yushan, they are only scattered. Wei Zeng fought with the thieves several times in two years, but all of them were unsafe. At first, Wei Zeng and Gu Chayi were together, and then they acted separately. Now Wei Zeng followed a caravan guarded by the warriors of the Wind Regiment north to Luye City.
Wei Zeng did not join the Breeze, but due to Yan Hudun's reasons, the warriors of the Breezer were very friendly to him. The people of Kanbei respect the strong, which may be related to the poor living environment of Kanbei since ancient times.
Two hundred years ago, the wilderness team fought against the harsh natural environment and the barbaric indigenous people, and in the hundred years of struggle against the barbarians, the Guanbei people achieved the martial tradition; Later, the threat of barbarians ceased to exist, thieves and cults appeared, and the people of Guanbei never stopped fighting.
Wei Zeng was resolute, young but already very good at martial arts, and he had teamed up with Gu Chayi at the age of thirteen to kill cultists several times his size to rescue innocent girls, which made these Breez warriors respect him. Although Wei Zeng is small, no one despises him.
Wei Zeng also gradually learned some things about the Blast, which changed his impression of the Blast. The founder of the Blaster Regiment was a warrior in the barbarian war, and once the barbarians were terrified by their heroic battles, and once the Blaster Regiment became the first civilian wilderness team in the period of the Emperor Qingyuan.
The founder was everywhere but wanted to be officially recognized, and he called himself a militia for his reclamation team, and set up a series of formations such as regiments, battalions, associations, and standards. He also modeled the official system and created a series of systems for the Breeze. Later, the Breeze formed a tradition, and each of the regimental commanders tried to "perfect" the system of the Breeze. One regimental commander even tried to collect taxes and levy labor among the regiments, but it was not possible.
Although the Windrush Regiment is also a gangster, it still prides itself on being a militia group, regards the robbers as enemies, and regards itself as the guardian of the dynasty. The Wind Troupe and the Wuwu Martial Arts Sect were not in harmony because no one valued them. Although the power of the Windrush Regiment has spread all over the major cities of Kanbei, it can be described as a behemoth, but a small martial arts hall martial artist dares to sneer at it.
The Windrush fights bandits, other gangsters and cultists. In short, everything that is not officially recognized, and even those who are enemies of the government dare to fight, and as a result, the reputation is getting louder and louder, and the power is getting bigger and bigger. But as long as it is an officially recognized organization, even if it is just a small martial arts hall, they will not move. As a result, the official did not admit it, the major martial arts sects ridiculed, the underworld counterparts were hostile, and the Windrush Group could almost be said to be not human inside and out.
The Windrush does not live by collecting protection money like other underworlds, but begging for a living like a normal martial arts gym and a dart game. As a result, caravans were often guarded by the Windrush Regiment. "Collecting protection money is such a nonsensical thing, how can such a formal organization as the Windrush be capable?" So said the head of the first Hurricane. The merchants of Kanbei have the best relationship with the Breeze, and many of them have long-term relationships with the Breeze. For example, Wei Zeng's caravan.
In the process of protecting the caravan, Wei Zeng was very familiar with these warriors of the Wind Regiment, and he must have been born and died together to cultivate feelings the most.
"There's a tea shed in front, let's take a break and then hurry." If the caravan commander said. So everyone sped up and went to the tea shed to rest.
I saw that there were already more than a dozen samurai-like people sitting in the tea shed. One of the black-clothed young men was like a young master, and he was protected by everyone in the middle. I saw this young man, handsome, but with a cold face and a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes, he looked like a character who was not easy to get along with. With a straight-edged horizontal knife at his waist, he frowned but didn't say anything when he saw the caravan enter the tea shed. The guards around him didn't pay much attention at first, but when a wind warrior appeared, he put his hand on his weapon and looked like he was about to hurt someone. Scared the Tempest Samurai.
"I'm sorry, we met thieves on the road, and we almost didn't escape. Now these subordinates are a little frightened when they encounter people with weapons. I've disturbed you, so please bear your heart. An older man sitting beside the boy stopped the guards and explained to the caravan.
The frightened Tempest Warrior was about to say a few words. But when I saw the solemn atmosphere of the scene, I kept silent. The two sides drank a few cups of tea in an atmosphere of mutual vigilance. And they hit the road one after another. Originally, because they were about to arrive at the destination Lu Ye City, a relaxed caravan group of people regained their vigilance and hit the road again.
"Godfather, is that the one who killed the Breez who killed countless of our cultists? Why not get rid of them. Enough in our strength. The black-clothed young man looked at the caravan in the distance and said to the elder.
"Holy Son, we have to go to Lu Ye City this time to have important things to do, and we must not increase the trouble. Again, the safety of the Son is paramount. The old man replied.
"Even those few people can hurt me?" The young man said contemptuously.
"Those few people are not a cause for concern, but it is a problem to alarm the bounty hunters, and there are several difficult characters who have been tracking us down." The elder said worriedly, "What's more, this is the place of the Demon Sect, and those sinners will definitely send demon guards if they find out." It's not a pity for my old man to die at a great age, but the Holy Son is what I taught never to happen in the future. ”
"How can the godfather say that, without the godfather, there would be no me Liu Yi today. Prosperity I teach how can there be no godfather. The young man Liu Yi's cold eyes showed some emotion, and he said to the elders: "Just listen to the godfather, it's important to do the right thing, this time I will let go of this group of people from the Wind Troupe." ”
Wei Zeng and the others avoided a catastrophe and went all the way to Lu Ye City. When Wei Zeng met that group of people, he also felt that they were not ordinary, and he was vigilant all the way, and he was really relieved when he arrived in Lu Yecheng. After receiving the commission, you have to find a hotel to live in, and then find a caravan to return to Wucheng. can be stopped by one person, it is now Zhai Licha, the head of the Nancheng Third Association of the Lu Yecheng Wind Branch.
Three years ago, the Windrush defeated Lu Ye City's local gang, the Tiger Gang, and the power has been developing in Lu Ye City, and last year, Zhai Lichai was sent to Lu Ye City as the co-leader. Since he met Zhai Lichai, he has often met him at Yan Hudun's house, and he has become acquainted with each other.
Once, he was escorting a caravan with him, and encountered a gang of thieves, and the two teamed up to kill the bandit leader to relieve the caravan of danger, and they became brothers to each other. After Zhai Li chased after Lu Yecheng, there was no contact. But when Wei Zeng passed by Lu Yecheng, he also took the time to see him.
"Brother Zhai, why are you here, I originally planned to look for you after I found a place to live, is there something wrong?"
"Naturally, I heard from the people in the club that Brother Wei is here, and I happen to be nearby, so I won't come. Speaking of something, there is really one thing that makes it difficult for me. But when I heard that Brother Wei was here, I didn't worry about it, I really dozed off and sent a pillow. ”
"What's wrong with Brother Zhai, don't be so mysterious, okay? I don't think it's a good thing. ”
"Hey, can the eldest brother hurt the brother. Although it is for you to do a favor, the benefits are also great. If it weren't for the fact that the remnants of the LTTE had colluded with the cultists, they would have attacked several of our target brethren in the Breeze. However, what is the ability of a small character like the Tiger Gang, and he was killed by those target brothers. I don't have much manpower right now to purge the remnants of the Tigers. Otherwise, I wouldn't be looking for someone around. ”
"Brother Zhai, just talk about things. Stop going around in circles. ”
"That's the case, there is a businessman surnamed Feng, who once donated a lot of money to our community, and is our partner in Lu Ye City. Recently, the daughter of a businessman surnamed Feng was intercepted by several cultists when she was out a few days ago, when our brothers from the Wind Regiment recognized the Feng family's carriage nearby and rescued her, nothing happened. But recently, there are often suspicious people near the merchant's house, which frightens the merchant surnamed Feng. They found us and wanted to hire someone to be our guard. We're very busy in the club now, when do you have time to help him take care of the home. But after all, it's a partner, so it's not good to refuse directly, the wind group is still unstable in Lu Ye City, and needs his help. Now I'm looking for some reliable people to help. Brother Wei will help take care of you for half a month if you want time, and after half a month, when I take care of the affairs of the Tiger Gang, I will arrange someone to replace you, brother. However, I revealed to my brother that the merchant's daughter was named Feng Liansheng, but she was a great beauty, she was now twenty-eight years old, and she had been familiar with poetry and books since she was a child. If Brother Wei can be a beautiful woman and complete a good marriage, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing. Zhai Li was afraid that Wei Zeng would not agree, so he emphasized the last few sentences.
After all, Wei Zeng is a teenager, although he was not so flustered when he was said like this, his face was also red: "Brother Zhai, don't you just ask me to help protect it, I just promise, don't make fun of me anymore." ”
"Why am I going to laugh at you again. You see that the two of you are of the same age, one is a young knight, and the other is a young girl; One is bold and upright, and the other is clean and self-righteous since childhood. No matter how you look at it, it's a good match. As long as the Wei brothers perform well. Hey, hey, brother, don't go. I'm not done yet. ”
The next day, Zhai Li chased Wei Zeng to Feng's house, explained a few words to the master's family, winked at Wei Zeng and left. Wei Zeng smiled bitterly in his heart. There were already four warriors who were chased by Zhai Li in Feng Mansion, two were young people like Wei Zeng, one was a greedy person, and the other was a person who seemed a little stupid.
"Lustful, greedy for money, and bad brains, is this what is called a guard." Wei Zeng was almost stunned. But it was immediately clear why.
Because not long after Wei Zeng's arrival, a man in a green shirt with a jade-like face came to visit. first exchanged a few words with the businessman surnamed Feng, and then walked to the backyard. Where is Miss Feng sitting on a game of chess, with a guqin. The man in the green shirt was very polite and bowed to Miss Feng. That Miss Feng is also a blessing. The two talked about poetry, books, chess, and piano.
It turned out that this person had only arrived in Lu Ye City in the last month, and on the day he arrived in Lu Ye City, he happened to encounter a group of Tsing Yi ghost-faced cultists surrounding the Feng father and daughter who were out of the city to incense, so he fought with those cultists with a single sword. When the samurai of the Storm Regiment arrived, the cultist dispersed.
The Feng father and daughter were grateful to him, so they invited him to the house to entertain him, this person talked elegantly, behaved decently, and was deeply favored by the Feng father and daughter. I learned that this person was a traveling scholar named Gui Yousheng, who traveled the world under the influence of "reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles", and recently happened to travel here.
Feng's father and daughter saw that their knowledge was indeed profound between their words and conversations, and they were all proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and their martial arts were not weak. Although the Feng businessman is in business, he yearns for the family of poetry and books, otherwise he would not let his daughter learn poetry and books. Later, when he learned that there was no one in this person's house, he had a heart to recruit money, and when he saw that his daughter was also happy, he wanted to make this pair of mandarin ducks. In this way, the two have been in contact with each other for a month, and they have reached the point of talking about marriage.
