Chapter Forty-Eight: Righteousness and Courage

When everyone arrived on the street, they breathed a sigh of relief, and Song Bo complained: "You don't look at the occasion when you speak, and you are not ashamed." ”

Xu Yu also felt inappropriate at this time, and remained silent. Ling Yue was still sobbing on the side, and Song Niang snuggled up to her and whispered comfort.

Song Bo and Zhao discussed where to spend the night for no reason. Uncle Song had a little heartache at this meal, so he wanted to find a county government to stay and save some money.

Zhao ran a school in Shuofang for no reason to teach children to read and write, his family background was good, and he came out with more coils, accompanied by his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, so he wanted to find a neat guest house to stay. But when Xu Yu made a fuss just now, he was also very embarrassed, and he wanted to avoid suspicion, so he tried his best to persuade Song Bozu and grandson to live together, and said that he could pay for it.

While talking, they suddenly heard Ling Yue's exclamation, and the two looked back, it turned out that it was several young scoundrels pestering Ling Yue, salivating and saying some gossip, Xu Yu and Song Niang blocked in front and tried their best to maintain.

Zhao Wuyin and Song Bo hurriedly went over and pushed away those little scoundrels. Zhao reprimanded for no reason: "In broad daylight, I dare to flirt with a woman from a good family, and I am not afraid of punishment from the government." ”

Those little scoundrels are not good stubble, and sneered: "What a good woman, an adulterer and an adulteress." He also learned from Zhao Wu's tone and laughed: "I'm not afraid of the government's punishment." ”

Zhao was angry for no reason, and stepped forward to fight with the little scoundrel. Song Bo was old, he couldn't pull it, he couldn't beat it, and he stomped his feet on the side.

Zhao Wuzhi was a weak scholar, who was the opponent of these little scoundrels, and was beaten to the ground after a while, and those little scoundrels did not give up and continued to punch and kick.

Song Bo also ignored his old age and frailty, stepped forward to grab a little scoundrel, but he shook his hand and pushed him to the ground, Song Niang cried and rushed over to help his grandfather.

The little scoundrel didn't care about Zhao Wuxu and Song Bo who fell to the ground at this time, and stepped forward to tease Ling Yue: "The little lady's face is really white and tender." As he spoke, he reached out and touched it.

Ling Yue was angry, ashamed and afraid, and blushed and scolded: "Scoundrel." The group of little scoundrels laughed: "We are originally scoundrels." "They gathered around. Xu Yu pushed left and right to protect Ling Yue, and gradually retreated to the corner.

Xu Yu and Ling Yue leaned against the wall, and there was no way back. This group of little scoundrels scratched their ears and cheeks with joy, and a slightly taller little scoundrel rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'll go over and talk to the little lady first." Before he finished speaking, his body suddenly flew forward, slammed into the wall, and stuck on the wall for a while before sliding down.

Everyone was stunned, and after a while, a little scoundrel tiptoed forward, slowly turned his body over, only to see that the man's face was covered with blood, Xu is nose was broken, and he had already fainted.

The little scoundrel turned around before he could speak, and suddenly his face was frightened, and he stuttered and froze there.

The little scoundrels looked at him like this, and they all turned around. I saw five people standing side by side, it was Guo Cong, Zhao Bai, Xu Xin, Guo Quji, Zhang Xiaoyi, it was Xu Xin who kicked the little scoundrel to the wall just now.

Xu Yu and Ling Yue were surprised at first, and then overjoyed, Song Niang took Guo Cong's arm and called out affectionately: "Uncle Guo." ”

Guo Cong patted her thin shoulder lovingly and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Song Niang said: "I met a scoundrel." After that, he angrily pointed at the group of little scoundrels and said, "Brother Zhao was also injured by them." At this time, Xu Yu and Ling Yue also supported each other and thanked each other.

Although the little scoundrels were timid, as local gangsters, they also wanted to earn some face, and they forced themselves to say, "Who are you?" ”

Xu Xin said: "I'll tell you who we are. "He was not tall, with a bearded face, and he was very stocky. Before he was about to step forward, Zhang Xiaoyi grabbed him and said, "Third uncle, slow down, I'll tell them." As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward.

Those little scoundrels saw that Zhang Xiaoyi was just a teenager, and felt that they could fight, so they pushed out the strongest one among them.

Zhang Xiao didn't care, and hooked his hand to lead him forward. The man roared and pounced, punching and punching.

Zhang Xiaoyi saw such a scene, and his heart was overjoyed. He has been playful since he was a child, and he has never practiced martial arts well, and he is worried that this person will be able to do martial arts and fight hard. Now I saw that this person's fighting kung fu was with him all the way, that is, Lu Xiang Chaoquan, so he calmed down. He was originally in the alleys, fights and brawls were commonplace, and he also practiced some doorways, and ordinary scoundrels couldn't beat him.

Zhang Xiaoyi is small and flexible, dodging left and right. The man snorted for a while, but he didn't hit a single hit, he was so tired that he was panting, and his hands and feet were slow. Zhang Xiaoyi grinned, stepped forward, got close to the man, and suddenly exerted force, a right hook punch hit him in the jaw, and a left hook hit him in the cheek. The man snorted, spun around in half a circle, and collapsed with his face covered.

Xu Xin applauded loudly on the side, Zhang Xiaoyi whistled, hooked his fingers, and said, "Who will come up again." ”

The little scoundrels were dumbfounded, who would dare to step forward. The man who had been knocked down struggled to get up from the ground, his eyes were swollen, blood was blistering in his mouth, and he seemed to have lost several teeth. He wiped the blood blisters from the corners of his mouth and said vaguely: "Don't go, I'll invite Master to come, you look good." The one who had hit the wall had woken up at this time, and the little scoundrels helped them to limp away.

Zhang Xiaoyi pretended to be surprised and said, "He still has a master?" Everyone laughed.

Song Niang's excited little face flushed, and said, "Brother Xiaoyi, you are so powerful." Zhang Xiaoyi was very proud, and pretended to be an old man, holding his hands on his chest and saying: "We are acting bravely." ”

Song Bo came over to give a salute and said, "Xie Daxia helped." ”

Guo Cong also saluted: "Uncle Song is polite. ”

Zhao also came over to thank him for no reason. Guo Cong asked him how his injuries were, and Zhao replied for no reason. Xu Xin took out a cowhide pouch from his bag and handed it to Zhao Wuxu, saying that it was an ointment for bruises, and it was enough to apply it to the wound.

Guo Cong saw that it was still early and there was a wine house on the street, so he said, "Let's go in and sit and talk." ”

Song Bo and Zhao thanked them for their rescue for no reason, and they did not shirk.

Ling Yue was a little embarrassed, and said, "I'm waiting for a woman, it seems inappropriate to enter the wine house." Everyone didn't hear what she said, but Song Niang, who was beside her, repeated it again before she understood.

Zhao Bai was honest and said: "It's inconvenient to talk on this street, go in and sit, you don't want to drink or not." Ling Yue entered the store with everyone.

The shopkeeper of the wine house greeted everyone to sit down. Guo Xie asked, "Is there good wine?" The shopkeeper said: "There is a good autumn liquor, as well as osmanthus wine, and the ladies can also drink it." Guo Cong smiled: "Take it." ”

Before long, the shopkeeper brought wine, and was about to retreat, but Xu Xin grabbed him and asked, "Shopkeeper, did you see a fight on the street just now?" ”

The shopkeeper didn't know what he meant by this, and said with a smile: "I was busy greeting guests just now, and I didn't see it clearly." ”

Xu Xin said suspiciously: "There is a lot of trouble on the street, why don't you see anyone come out to take care of it." ”

The shopkeeper hesitated, looked up, and said softly: "You are strangers don't know, this group of little scoundrels are apprentices of the Niu Family Martial Arts Hall in the west of the city, and they are also rampant and domineering on weekdays. The head of the Niu Family Martial Arts Hall is called Niu Baoguo, who founded a random five-in-a-row palm, and has a friendship with Xu Yanshou, the owner of the Xu Family Manor in the west of the city. The head of the Xu family once served as prime minister for a long time, and returned to his hometown to retire when he was old. Therefore, the government has nothing to do, and the people here avoid them. The fight you had just now was also a relief. ”

Zhang Xiaoyi was very surprised: "They really have a master?" The crowd laughed together.
