Chapter 3: Enemies Meet
Zuo Qiuzong walked out of the county yamen with excitement on his face. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Info was wearing a rag shirt, but that didn't affect his mood at all. Bouncing along the way.
After walking for about an hour, I came to Yuyue Village.
"Hey, Aunt Gao, are you drying clothes?"
After entering Yuyue Village, Zuoqiu Zong greeted a beautiful woman with a smile on his face. This beautiful woman looks like she is in her early thirties, although in Yuyue Village due to economic backwardness, everyone is dressed very plainly, but then look at this beautiful woman except for the slightly rough clothes on her body, there is really nothing rustic, obviously a beauty.
"Little rabbit, have you come to peek at the old lady taking a bath again?"
As soon as Zuoqiu Zong finished greeting, he saw the beautiful woman scolding, and a broom flew over in the distance.
"Hey, how many years ago was that?"
After dodging the broom's attack, Zuo Qiuzong explained while quickly running out of the sight of the aunt of the Gao family.
Zuo Qiuzong turned his head to look after walking out of the sight of the aunt of the Gao family, and when he saw that he was not chasing, he thought happily in his heart, I am also the head of the county government now, and I am a person with status, and I am not familiar with such a Diao people, so as not to lose the identity of the official family.
"Brother Zong, Brother Zong. Oh no, no!"
A child who didn't take two steps and looked slightly shorter than Zuoqiu Sect, with dark skin all over his body, but looked very strong, ran over very eagerly, and when he saw Zuoqiu Sect, the cry was even more anxious.
"Little Liuzi, why are you here?"
After Zuoqiu Zong saw that it was Xiao Liuzi, he greeted him cordially and patted Xiao Liuzi on the shoulder, signaling Xiao Liuzi not to be in a hurry, and said slowly.
"Master Feng's condition has worsened. ā
Xiao Liuzi said after relieving his breath.
Zuoqiu Zong, who was leisurely along the way, couldn't calm down anymore after hearing Xiao Liuzi's words, and he instantly quickened his pace when he was walking leisurely just now, and he didn't wait for Xiao Liuzi behind.
Running back all the way, it was not until in front of a small thatched hut that it looked dilapidated that Zuoqiu Sect gradually slowed down.
This small thatched hut can be said to be a slum even in Yuyue, a slum village in Yuancheng, a slum county. Aside from some thatch on the roof, there was nothing to be seen.
When Zuo Qiuzong entered the house, he saw Li Feng, who was pale and coughing on the edge of the bed. There were still small stalls of blood stains on the ground under the bed. You don't have to guess to know that this blood was coughed up by Li Feng.
"Master Feng, Master Feng. ā
Seeing this, Zuoqiu Zong immediately strode over, ran to Li Feng's side, and shouted while holding Li Feng, who had just finished coughing.
"It's Xiaozong, I'm satisfied to see you for the last time. ā
Li Feng turned his head and looked at Zuoqiu Sect and lay on the bed, saying without any expression.
"Master Feng, Xiao Zong has good news for you, Xiao Feng went to the county government to apply for a job quickly, and he applied for the job, and he also gave Xiao Feng a monthly salary of 3 gold coins, and with this money, he will be able to see a doctor for Master Feng, and I believe that Master Feng's illness will get better soon." ā
Zuo Qiu Zong looked at Li Feng and said with a serious face.
But after Li Feng heard what Zuo Qiu Zong said, he shook his head helplessly. It seems that there is no surprise that Zuo Qiuzong can apply for the position of county government arrester.
"Xiaozong, the master is no longer good. I'm ashamed to say it, the biggest regret in my life may be to delay you, you have such a talent that is different from ordinary people, if I can send you to a slightly better sect as soon as possible, I believe that you are now one of the best masters in the rivers and lakes. But the master's heart is higher than the sky, and he always thinks that he will try his best to send you to the six gates, and finally when it is time for you to travel at the age of fifteen, you have not even entered the sect. Think about it carefully, as the largest gang in the world, how can the six doors easily admit us people with no background and no strength to enter? It's the master who delayed you!"
Li Feng said as he said with a tear falling from the corner of his eye.
"Master, don't say that, didn't I rely on the kung fu taught me by my master to apply for a job today? In the future, the disciples must work hard to practice. ā
Zuo Qiu Zong knelt in front of the bed and said with a face full of shame.
"Silly boy, how can the master know any martial arts, the old tricks that the master taught you are just performing on the rivers and lakes. I've been lying to you to learn martial arts from me, just to think that one day I will send you to the Six Gates, you are talented, if you don't go to the Six Gates, it will be a tyrannical thing! Master, I'm afraid this will not work, after you are done, you hurry up to Yuancheng's military cultivation gate, and if you go, you will say that your name is Zuoqiu Zong. They will take you in. ā
Li Feng said, a long string of tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
"Master, master. ā
When Zuo Qiuzong knelt in front of the bed and called again, Li Feng, who was lying on the bed, had no reaction, and even his expression had stopped at the moment of tears.
Zuoqiu Sect has no father or mother, and has been adopted and raised by Li Feng since he was a child, and his feelings for Li Feng are certainly not comparable to ordinary people. At this moment, he finally cried unscrupulously.
This scene even the little six who just entered the door looked stupid. Even Xiao Liuzi didn't believe that the master just left.
Xiao Liuzi's full name is Guan Bowen, and he is another orphan adopted by Li Feng. Although it seems that Li Feng does not take care of Xiao Liuzi as much as Zuoqiu Sect on weekdays, he still takes care of Xiao Liuzi meticulously. What's more, Xiao Liuzi and Zuoqiu Zong are like brothers, and of course there is no barrier between the two.
"Master, he, he's gone. ā
Zuo Qiuzong turned his head and looked at Xiao Liuzi helplessly and said.
"Brother Zong, the master said this morning that he couldn't stand it, so he told me to hurry up and find you. Don't be too sad, bury the master and quickly clean it up, and then follow the last wish of the master and his old man, let's go to the military repair gate, although the military repair door is not a big sect, but it is one of the best in Yuancheng County, and even Huanzhou. I believe that you will become an outstanding martial artist as the master and his old man said, and you will become one of the best hunters in Huanzhou in the future. ā
Xiao Liuzi walked up to Zuoqiu Sect and helped Zuoqiu Sect and said.
But at this moment, Zuo Qiu Zong punched Xiao Liuzi in the face who came to help him.
"Do you still have any humanity as a person? Master he just died, but what you think about is still going to the military cultivation hall, and you are simply a white-eyed wolf because the master has raised you for so many years. ā
After Zuoqiu Zong finished fighting, he still stared at Xiao Liuzi and scolded viciously.
"Okay, okay, you're not a white-eyed wolf, don't you know what the master has been doing all his life? Doesn't he just want you to become an outstanding martial arts cultivator, to be able to become a fast catcher? He doesn't care about anything for this, how can you do it now that you're still in a low mood. I just heard that He Lao Er failed to apply for the job of catching the fast, and you also said that you applied for the job, do you know what it means? If you don't clean up and bury the master, do you want the master's body to be unpeaceful?"
Although he was punched by Zuoqiu Zong, Xiao Liuzi did not stop talking. Even louder and louder you speak.
Although Zuoqiu Zong is stubborn, he also has deep feelings for his master. But he himself is not a fool, nor is he an unreasonable person, after listening to Xiao Liuzi's explanation, he doesn't blame Xiao Liuzi, and even thinks that Xiao Liuzi is reasonable.
So he didn't argue about anything, simply cleaned up the house, found something at home and wrapped the master's body, and then the two of them worked together to bury the master.
Kneeling in front of the master's grave, Zuoqiu Zong began to cry again, if it weren't for Xiao Liuzi's urging over and over again, Zuoqiu Zong estimated that he didn't know how to leave.
Under the urging of Xiao Liuzi, the two packed their bags, carried their packages and embarked on a trip to Yuancheng County.
"Wait, I'm going to take Chu Lan with me, and we'll go with Chu Lan. ā
Suddenly, Zuo Qiu Zong stopped, looked at Xiao Liuzi with a serious face and said.
"You, are you crazy? We are going to Yuancheng County, not to any other place, the two of us will not be embarrassed by He Zhou, but if you bring Chu Lan with you, doesn't that mean that you plan to let He Zhou's lackeys chase us for the rest of our lives? Chu Lan is the person He Zhou named to be He Laosan's daughter-in-law. ā
After hearing this, Xiao Liuzi's two eyes were as big as a cow, and he looked at Zuoqiu Zong incredulously and said.
"But Chu Lan played with us until she grew up, and I promised her at the beginning that I must marry her in the future, and besides, let Chu Lan marry that sick bun He Laosan, didn't this push Chu Lan into the fire pit?"
Zuoqiu Zong is not irrational, but he feels that if he does this, it is not a matter of being rational or irrational, but a matter of character, in Zuoqiu Zong's mind, he must be sincere, since he agrees, he must do it, if he can throw his sincerity because of difficulties and so on, then what kind of character does this person have? Even Zuoqiu Zong felt that if he did this, although he could say that he had unspeakable hardships on the surface, to be honest, what was the difference between those who did so and those bad people who had no conscience.
Zuoqiu Zong thought about it and didn't want to listen to Xiao Liuzi's persuasion anymore.
He could agree to anything else, but he couldn't do it alone.
Thinking about it, without waiting for Xiao Liuzi to say anything, Zuoqiu Zong had already re-embarked on the road to the village.
Because Zuoqiu Sect's heart was also anxious, Zuoqiu Sect came to Chulan's house alone after a while.
When Zuoqiu Zong opened the door of Chu Lan's house while calling Chu Lan's name, the situation in the courtyard of the discharged house stunned Zuo Qiu Zong.
Chu Lan's mother was lying in a pool of blood, and at this moment, Chu Lan was held hostage by two people.
There is a person sitting on the Taishi chair at the door of the courtyard at the moment, and then look at this person, it is not He Zhou. Although He Zhou doesn't look amazing, his always high-profile way of doing things makes him more likely to attract the attention of others than those who look amazing wherever he goes.
"Is that you?"
The scene when Zuoqiu Sect saw that Master He Zhouhou had just died flashed in his mind again, and seeing He Zhou holding Chu Lan hostage, Zuoqiu Sect was even more angry.
"I didn't believe what the second child said, you poor boy dared to hit Chu Lan's attention, but now it seems that what the second child said is not groundless. Besides, you kid doesn't know where to stand out, and you actually applied for a job that even my second child couldn't apply for. In this case, today I will call you a catty and two pounds for this kid, and see what kind of goods our future catcher is. ā
He Zhou said viciously, waved his hand at the three or five idlers beside him, and made a gesture.
