Chapter 136: Old Jianghu's Cleverness (1/2)
Lao Zhou didn't show any surprise that Wang Anfeng brought back a person.
It's just that when he saw the crisscrossed scars on Ah Ping's face, his eyes shrank slightly uncontrollably, but in a blink of an eye, they returned to their original innocent appearance, and Ah Ping didn't see anything abnormal.
Greeted the second guy with a smile, hurried to warm up some water to wash Ah Ping, and sent someone to the nearest ready-to-wear store to buy some clothes that fit and came back.
When everything was cleaned up, Ah Ping went into the house to wash, while Wang Anfeng sat at the stone table in the backyard with a pot of hot tea on the table.
Lao Zhou hesitated for a moment, but still walked to his side, lowered his hands to his side, bowed and saluted, and said:
"Your Excellency...... The marks on this little brother's face ......"
There was hesitation and fear in Lao Zhou's eyes.
He recognized the face, or rather, he had seen a similar face before.
The reason why the fierce mountain splitter retired to the rivers and lakes and became an honest and honest innkeeper always had a reason and a reason.
That kind of crazy swordsmanship that doesn't leave half a point at all, he can't forget it until now.
Wang Anfeng raised his eyes to look at him, put down the teacup with his right hand, and asked:
"You've seen it?"
Lao Zhou replied and said:
"When my subordinates were still roaming the rivers and lakes, I saw it once."
"I almost lost my life that time, but more than ten years have passed, and I still can't forget that face, and I had the idea of looking for someone to take revenge in the past, but after knowing the assassin's sect, I dismissed this thought."
Wang Anfeng nodded and explained:
"That kid is not a disciple of Danfeng Valley, but he was almost captured by a disciple of Danfeng Valley back then, and I happened to be nearby to save him, but unfortunately he was still a step late, and his face has been ruined by the disciple of Danfeng Valley."
"You can rest assured."
“…… I see. ”
Lao Zhou was silent, and then sighed without knowing whether to regret or relax.
Wang Anfeng suddenly felt that it seemed a little inappropriate for Ah Ping to walk the rivers and lakes like this.
Although Danfeng Valley has become extinct in the rivers and lakes of Fufeng, the people in the rivers and lakes who have all kinds of entanglements with it do not know how many there are, like Lao Zhou, there are definitely not a few people who can easily subdue Ah Ping.
Although the injury on Ah Ping's face is said to have been victimized by Danfeng Valley, his appearance is no different from that of Danfeng Valley's killer, and if he encounters Danfeng Valley's enemies in the future, it will be really troublesome to come forward indiscriminately.
Wang Anfeng pondered for a moment and asked:
"Do you have a disguise mask here?"
Lao Zhou was slightly stunned, then understood, and nodded again and again:
"Yes."
"My lord, sit down for a while, and my subordinates will fetch it."
After a salute, he turned around and walked towards his residence, this backyard was only Wang Anfeng himself for a while, raised his hand to pick up the teapot, and poured himself another cup of hot tea, Wang Anfeng held the teacup with the fingers of his right hand, a little distracted.
If it weren't for the fear of angering Mr. Ziying, the disguise mask he got from Mr. Ziying on Chinese New Year's Eve might be more appropriate.
But if you dare to do that, you will be angry, right?
Thinking of the green-shirted scribe with a cold face, leaning on the bamboo chair, and not turning his head no matter how he screamed, Wang Anfeng felt a pain in his forehead, and couldn't help but raise his hand and knock it.
Sure enough, forget it......
At this time, Lao Zhou had already walked out of the house, a strong man who was born roughly, but he was holding a rosewood wooden box with both hands very carefully, walked over quickly, and carefully placed the box on the table, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, got up and clasped his fists and saluted, saying:
"Your Excellency."
"Things are here......"
The wooden box was opened, and it was divided into three layers, the first of which was padded with several layers of silk, and on top of the silk was a mask as thin as a cicada's wings.
Wang Anfeng studied under the thief Hongluoyu, and all kinds of methods in the rivers and lakes have been involved, and it can be seen at a glance that this mask is by no means a major commodity in the rivers and lakes, no matter the material or production techniques, it is already considered to be of the highest quality.
Ordinary Jianghu martial artists, if they are not experienced, or have cultivated special pupil techniques, Hugh wants to see through it, and can't help but praise:
"Good treasure."
Lao Zhou raised his hand and stroked the mask as thin as a cicada's wings, and said:
"This mask is the result of the adventures of my subordinates walking the rivers and lakes, I have been with me for a long time, and I have avoided many disasters, and since I have withdrawn from the sword and sword shadow at this time, this mask has a lot less effect on me."
"If you want it, just follow the rules of our gang."
Wang Anfeng nodded.
Since Gongsun Jing entered Shaolin for the first time three years ago, he has changed the rules of the original Giant Whale Gang, everything is based on merit, Wang Anfeng naturally knows about this matter, looked at the innkeeper next to him who seemed a little cramped, and said with a smile:
"What do you want, Lao Zhou? Why don't you say it......"
The man gritted his teeth when he heard this, knelt directly on the ground, clasped his fists, and said in a deep voice:
"My lord, the surname Zhou has been wandering the rivers and lakes for so long, relying on brute strength, a body of external skills, but the external skills are domineering, and they have not cultivated to a high depth, and the damage to the bones of the body cannot be made up at all, so they can only continue to take medicine to alleviate it."
"I have no hope in this life, but I hope to be able to exchange this thing for a rather clever mantra for future generations."
"I hope it will be fulfilled."
After saying all the words he was holding in his heart in one breath, Zhou Gang exhaled heavily in his heart.
Wang Anfeng was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile:
"Naturally."
"I will inform Gongsun about this...... Master. When the time comes, you will be taught according to the rules, do you want to be strong or ......?"
"My son has reached the age of martial arts."
"Subordinates are courageous, please teach your subordinates at this time."
Zhou Gang, who seemed respectful yesterday, rejected Wang Anfeng's kindness, and even interrupted his words because of the surging emotions in his heart, and then knelt down with his fists and lowered his eyebrows, not looking at him.
The heart in the chest beats a little fast.
Wealth is not exposed, this is something that rookies who walk the rivers and lakes know.
Even according to the rules of the Giant Whale Gang, it was necessary for him to go to the general gang in person to exchange calculations, but he was still gambling, betting on his position as a secret agent, for the Giant Whale Gang, it was more important than this small mask.
It's also a bet -
Bet that at this time, the gentle and innocent young man in front of him would not give himself a copy of martial arts casually.
This kind of person will remember in his mind must be the most commendable part of the same level, and any one of them will be earned by himself.
With this in mind, Zhou Gang's heart became more and more emotional, like a tide.
Wang Anfeng's fingers brushed over the mask, and the smile on his face was retracted, and he did not speak.
The atmosphere became a little oppressive for a while.
Zhou Gang suddenly felt that his breathing was a little difficult.
He was ready to accept Wang Anfeng's questioning, but the young man was just silent, but although he was silent, there was something like a mountain rock pressing heavily on his shoulders, making him a little breathless, and his face was slightly pale.
I don't know how long time has passed.
Zhou Gang could only feel a dead silence around him at this time, and only the sound of his own breathing was left between heaven and earth, and this scattered breathing sound became more and more disturbing.
There was the sound of water in the room, and then the sound of Ah Ping getting dressed and squirming.
Wang Anfeng's fingers flexed and tapped lightly on the tea cup.
A soft groan.
The tea soup in the cup rippled from the center, hitting the edge of the cup, surging up and down, and the depression in the entire courtyard was instantly swept away, just like the bronze bell that was originally upside down above the courtyard disappeared, and the air began to flow again.
"Huhuhu~"
Zhou Gang staggered, unable to maintain the appearance of half-kneeling with his fists clenched, holding one hand on the ground, breathing heavily, sweat oozing from his forehead, and then sliding down his face and dripping on the bluestone below.
At this time, it was a cold winter wax moon, and he seemed to be in the scorching heat.
Ah Ping pushed the door out, Wang Anfeng got up, took out the mask in the wooden box on the table with his right hand, looked at Ah Ping and smiled gently, his steps paused slightly, he stood with his hands in his hands, and glanced sideways at Zhou Gang, who was half-kneeling on the ground, wheezing, his eyes converged, like a sword returning to the sheath, and said lightly:
"The mask, I've taken it."
"Martial arts, you go to the Giant Whale Gang to get it."
"One downshift."
"Any objections?"
The voice was indifferent, different from yesterday, like the ice and snow in Beichuan, Zhou Gang's heart trembled fiercely, he didn't dare to disobey, and bowed his head and whispered:
"Yes."
"Subordinates obey."
The voice was hoarse.
At the same time, because he lowered his eyebrows and eyes, he didn't see the terrifying momentum of the young man, who was so overwhelming that he couldn't breathe, took two steps, and seemed to shake his shoulders in discomfort.
Then he walked forward with a blank face.
There are already tiny goosebumps on the neck hidden behind the black hair.
