Chapter 1006: Try Your Skills
After coming to Tanzhou, Tianya first had a big meal, and then went directly to the Chu Wangfu to report. This is already the boundary of the Southern Tang Dynasty, so Tianya is much more low-key, and he did not fight at the gate of the Chu Palace, but asked the guards guarding the door to hand over Zhao Pu's handwritten letter.
Zhao Pu and Li Hongmao did not exchange letters often, but Li Hongmao also knew Zhao Pu's notes and writing style, so he immediately ordered someone to bring Tianya into the mansion. After all, it was recommended by Zhao Pu, even if you don't like it, you have to give Zhao Pu this face.
Li Hongmao is just a straw bag, not a fool. Zhao Pu, a person with such a rich and status, would not easily recommend a person, and he specially recommended him to his house as a personal bodyguard, this matter was originally very strange, and Li Hongmao didn't know Zhao Pu's intentions.
The only thing Li Hongmao knows is that Zhao Pu will not harm himself, because it is actually very beneficial for Yandao for the Chu Realm to be in charge of him. Although Shioshima needs to pay taxes to keep the trade routes open, Shioshima is not short of money, and if it can be solved with money, Shioshima will be more than happy to accept it.
Although Shioshima is rich and powerful, they are afraid of trouble. If Shioshima were in trouble and the trade routes were blocked, a day or two of downtime would cause them serious losses. No one can say what policies Yang Ying will have after taking over the whole of Jiangxi, so Yandao hopes that this situation will be maintained.
Since Li Hongmao knew that Zhao Pu would not harm himself, he was also very relieved about Tianya. At least this man came to protect himself, not an assassin.
Li Hongmao was sitting in the living room, there were two guards around him who were vigilant, Li Hongmao's face was not very good, because he was afraid that Yang Ying would make a move on him, and at this time, if Yang Ying made a move, Li Jing would not dare to turn his face with Yang Ying, and Yang Ying could smoothly take over the entire Jiangxi region.
For this reason, Li Hongmao has invited many martial arts masters to be guards, and he has also encountered several assassinations, and the deaths and injuries of the masters who were invited to be guards are also quite serious. Yang Ying didn't know how long she would live.
Li Hongmao has been writing letters to Li Jing, hoping that he can send a person with strong martial arts to protect him, but at this time, where can Li Jing take care of him? Countless strong men of the Zhou army attacked Shouzhou, and Li Jing was also terrified all day long, as long as Shouzhou was lost, the Southern Tang Dynasty would be in danger of losing the country.
Tianya was taken to the living room by the guards, and Li Hongmao also knew that the person mentioned in the letter had been brought, but he was not very interested in Zhao Pu's proposal. How many people can you invite for a thousand taels of gold? It's just that it doesn't matter if there are too many people, and the other party doesn't want to capture the Chu Palace, but just wants to kill himself.
Li Hongmao has no shortage of manpower, let alone those loyal subordinates who can die for himself, what he lacks is a person who can protect his safety from threats anytime and anywhere, a person who has enough strength to ensure that he will not be killed.
"King Chu, people have been brought. ”
Li Hongmao raised his head and looked at Tianya, feeling that this little Taoist priest was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it. Maybe it's just because this little Taoist priest is very beautiful, so he feels familiar.
"Are you the Boundless Son?"
Tianya arched his hand and said: "Immeasurable Tianzun, the poor way is exactly what the letter says. Because he needs to use a sum of money recently, Lord Zhao specially recommended Poor Dao to come here to guard, I don't know what King Chu wants. ”
"Okay, there is no problem with this price, I can still afford to guard a thousand taels of gold for half a year. I know that Zhao Pu will not deliberately send someone to cheat me for money, but ...... I wonder how much you can do. "Even if Li Hongmao gives Zhao Pu face, he will not drive Tianya away, and will give him the job of guarding, and at the same time, he will never pay the bill, and a thousand taels of gold will definitely be given to this little Taoist.
Li Hongmao just wants to know one question now, how is this little Taoist's martial arts, and whether he can be relied on at a critical time. Although the martial arts of the two guards around him are very good, they can't wait all day, not to mention that it is the most dangerous when they sleep at night, if there are three people, two on the day shift and one on the night shift, they can sleep peacefully.
Of course, Tianya's martial arts have no effect on this matter, even if Tianya is a person who doesn't know martial arts at all, Li Hongmao will accept this matter in the way of face. After all, it's just a thousand taels of gold, and it doesn't matter much if Li Hongmao spends money to raise an idler.
Li Hongmao still trusts Zhao Pu a lot, since he dares to ask for a thousand taels of gold, this little Taoist priest can also do martial arts, and it shouldn't be too bad. If he can make a difference, it would be great.
Tianya nodded and said: "This is as it should be, after all, as a guard, if I don't have some real kung fu, I don't have the face to accept this money." ”
Li Hongmao said: "Zhang Cheng bangs, you and Wuyazi Dao Chang have two tricks, try to let him use the so-called real kung fu, but don't start too hard, so as not to hurt the harmony." ”
"Yes. Although Zhang Cheng and Liu Hai respected Li Hongmao, they did not forget to bow down when answering.
So far, Li Hongmao still regards the relationship between Zhao Pu more important, after all, he collects countless taxes from Yandao every month, if he offends Zhao Pu...... I dare not imagine.
This trade route is from Yandao directly to Dazhou, just passing through Tanzhou. But at this time, the Chu boundary and the Southern Han Dynasty border, if Zhao Pu is willing, he can make a slight detour, do not go to Tanzhou and turn to the west of the Southern Han Dynasty, and then Tanzhou will not be able to collect taxes at all.
This is just a little troublesome for Yandao, but it is a heavy blow for Tanzhou. Zhao Pu is a businessman after all, and he is only the shopkeeper of Yandao's business, and the real boss is not him. Therefore, Zhao Pu is willing to use Yandao's money to increase his interpersonal relationships, although it is not in the interests of the boss to do so, but any businessman will choose this way.
Zhang Cheng took two steps ahead of his bangs, and Zhang Cheng said: "Bangs, you go and try the martial arts of this Wuyazi Daoist first, don't hurt Wuyazi Daoist, he is a distinguished guest recommended by Lord Zhao." ”
"Don't worry, I'm in for a treat. Liu Hai didn't mind trying martial arts at all, after all, Tianya's age was still young, so he didn't need to worry about how powerful he was, and he could be completely restrained by internal strength alone.
Liu Hai is also a famous teacher, about 10 years older than Tianya, and Zhang Cheng is the same brother, both of whom were once disciples of Jinling Dugu Valve, and their swordsmanship is superb. Because of the relationship between Dugu Valve and Dugu Huang and Li Jing, most of the disciples were absorbed by Li Jing, and Zhang Cheng and Liu Hai were two of them, so Li Jing sent them as guards to protect Li Hongmao's safety.
Although the fist and foot martial arts of these two people are not very good, their swordsmanship is really good. Li Hongmao's survival to this day is also thanks to the desperate protection of these two brothers, which is why Li Hongmao trusts them.
Liu Hai came to Tianya, and then said softly: "Daoist Wuyazi, then I'm going to do it, you have to be careful." ”
After finishing speaking, Liu Hai came to Tianya with a punch. When they read the letter just now, they were around, and this little Taoist priest actually offered a thousand taels of gold in half a year, which was ten thousand taels of silver......
After seeing the bangs, of course, his psychology was unbalanced, why did a little Taoist priest make so much money? Liu Hai's salary was 20 taels of silver a month, which is more than 200 taels a year, and it took 40 years to earn 10,000 taels of silver. But this little Taoist priest's price is so high, and it has only been half a year.
Although Liu Hai was unhappy, he knew his identity, no matter how sarcastic and derogatory he was, it would not change this Sure enough, Tianya can get a thousand taels of gold if he stays here for half a year, whether he is martial arts or not.
Liu Hai knows the relationship, Li Hongmao will not offend Zhao Pu for this money, but since this person is a guard, it is nothing to compete with each other even if he is injured halfway, this is within the normal scope of work. Although he didn't plan to stab this little Taoist priest a few times, it was no problem to beat him hard.
Tianya stood in place and didn't dodge, and the two people behind felt that if this punch hit...... I'm afraid that this little Taoist priest will be beaten all over the ground looking for teeth. Bangs' internal strength is not low, although his biggest ability is to use a sword, but his fists and feet are also very dangerous, which even Li Hongmao, a straw bag, knows very well.
Tianya raised his hand slightly, and he stubbornly caught a straight punch from Liu Hai, for Tianya, this person's skill is too low, and he is not qualified to be his opponent at all.
Li Hongmao and Zhang Chengdu were a little dumbfounded, because Liu Hai would not give face to this little Taoist, and he rushed up to make Tianya lose face, so that he could know that the money was not earned by his own ability, but because of Zhao Pu's recommendation.
As a result, after Tianya took this punch, Li Hongmao and Zhang Chengdu felt that the bangs were released, maybe the punch just now only used two or three percent of the force, so it was followed by this little Taoist, and it was so easy.
One of the most surprising is the bangs, because he used eighty percent of the strength of this punch, and there is still a real qi on the fist style, even if the average martial arts practitioner resists with all his strength, he may not be able to block it.
Of course, the most surprising thing about Liu Hai was not that Tianya took this punch, but that when Hai Liu's fist style hit the palm of Tianya, Liu Hai felt that his fist style was like a mud cow entering the sea without any strength at all.
Tianya grabbed the bangs' hand and didn't let go, and then gently pulled it back, and the bangs' tense body suddenly leaned forward, and then lost his balance.
Tianya also took this opportunity to gently punch forward......
'Bump~~'
The whole world was silent, and the usually pretentious bangs were punched until he lost his resistance, and he curled up on the ground in pain, without even a chance to moan.
Although the power used by Tianya's punch is not large, it is the Sun and Moon Wuji True Qi taught by Zongxin.
Tianya naturally didn't dare to go all out, and even the two true qi of the ice and fire systems were not attached, but at the moment when he hit the bangs, Tianya turned his fists slightly, and two completely different true qi invaded the abdomen of the bangs, and then the two true qi twisted and entangled with each other, and the internal organs of the bangs were hit unspeakably miserable.
