Chapter 425: First Entering the Jianghu 2
Lianyi and Wang Zhenzhen were hiding behind the inn counter, with no intention of taking action at all, as long as they were not affected.
The innkeeper, who was also hiding under the counter, had a hard-to-speak expression on his face, and smiled awkwardly at Ripple and the two of them. The smile was uglier than crying.
“Boss, do things like this often happen here?”
Lianyi asked proactively.
"Occasionally, it happens, but it's just a small fight. It's never been this serious. This time I'm afraid the government will be alerted, and my inn will be demolished."
The inn owner had a grimace on his face.
As soon as he finished speaking, a wooden table hit the edge of the counter. The loud sound made the boss tremble, and he held his head and pressed his body lower.
The sound of fighting in the entire inn gradually became quieter, and it was estimated that the fighting was coming to an end.
"You guys, don't come here! Do you know who I am? I am the Wang family of Longxi! If there is anything wrong with me, the Wang family will definitely hunt you to the ends of the earth!"
The young man who had previously wanted to recruit Lianyi and Wang Zhenzhen saw that he was at a disadvantage and the guards around him fell one after another. He finally became anxious and immediately moved out of his backstage.
"Hmph! You are the one to be killed!"
A shirtless man said fiercely.
Immediately, he jumped up and used the momentum of his fall to make a heavy slash, knocking one of the guards to the ground, and then rushed towards the young man who was being guarded in the middle.
Lianyi and Wang Zhenzhen looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.
"Aunt Zhen, have you seen this person before?"
"I have no impression."
"But he is under the banner of the Wang family, and he doesn't look like my little uncle in age."< br>
"He is not Wang Yaohui. He is not the right age. Although his appearance is familiar, I can't remember it for a moment."
"Should we save him?"
"Save him first and then ask in detail."
"Okay, let's wait and wait until the critical moment before taking action, so that he can be grateful to us."
Lianyi said with a smile.
Both of them had heard the secret message, and when they looked at each other, they had a plan of action for the next step.
“A Biao, you, don’t die!”
The young master howled and tried to hold up the fallen guard, but his small body was useless and he fell down with him. The guard loyally blocked the young master behind him, and then pointed at him with a long sword. He was stabbed in the heart.
With a muffled groan of "Woo", Guard A Biao completely fainted.
"A Biao!!!"
This piercing cry made the hand of the killer who slashed at the young man tremble.
With a "dang" sound, the knife in the killer's hand was chopped away. He immediately turned around and saw a long sword flying in the air, across the neck of his companion, and finally returned to the hand of a woman in red. .
Wang Zhenzhen didn't give the shirtless man a chance to react. She stabbed the man in the chest with a sword from behind, killing the last killer.
Ripple then stepped over the corpses on the ground, walked towards the frightened young master, and asked with a smile:
"Dare you ask your surname? After all, we will be together in the future. We're on our way, do you want to exchange names?"
While speaking, Ripple made a "crack" sound and returned the sword to its sheath, clearly expressing his threat.
"My name is Wang Yaozu, and I belong to the Wang family in Longxi. The current head of the Wang family is my eldest brother, dear!"
Wang Yaozu looked at the two people in front of him and almost slapped himself twice in regret. How could he have misjudged the piranha and mistakenly thought that the piranha was a small white flower? He also wanted others to serve him tea and water. He really felt that his life was too long. . "Aunt Zhen, why did I have another brother-in-law appear out of nowhere?"
"No wonder I think this man looks familiar, especially his eyes, which are similar to your grandfather's Aunt Ling." "Eight-point portrait."
After the two exchanged a few words in secret, Lianyi turned around and looked at his freshly baked uncle, and walked around Wang Yaozu who was sitting on the ground and couldn't get up. Circle, and then said:
"Young Master Wang, meeting each other is fate, not to mention that we saved your life. Do you think this life-saving grace should be repaid with a spring of water!"
< br>
"Little chivalrous girl, how do you want me to repay you?"
Wang Yaozu asked in a low voice, completely losing his previous arrogance and domineering attitude.
“Isn’t your Longxi Wang family as rich as the rest of the country? How much do you think your life is worth?”
Lianyi picked up the folding fan that Wang Yaozu had dropped on the ground, closed the fan, and smiled. The folding fan is handed back to the other party.
Wang Yaozu raised his eyes and glanced at the two people quickly, took the folding fan carefully and respectfully, considered it for a while and said:
"Our family is rich, but I have been studying abroad and don't have much money with me. I can only wait until I return to Longxi and meet my elder brother. I can let him pay as much as you want."
"What you said is inappropriate. It's like we are exchanging your life for you."
Lianyi swept the corpses on the ground and said meaningfully.
"Miss. Chivalrous Girl, what do you want?"
Wang Yaozu was not stupid and immediately changed his mind and asked.
"Although senior sister and I are new to the world, we think that we are very skilled in martial arts and can protect everyone. Besides, your guards are dying and injured. This place is still far from Longxi. The road ahead is Without their protection, you may be in trouble.
If the person who came to kill you failed, there will definitely be another wave. If you want to return to the Wang family in Longxi safely, you must have a strong one. Guard, it just so happens that my senior sister and I are going to Longxi to see more, and I don’t want to threaten you with the favor of saving my life, so I reluctantly accepted the task of escorting you home. What do you think?”
“Really? "Okay?"
Wang Yaozu also saw the strength of the two men and asked a little flattered.
“Of course, the escort fee and the reward for saving my life are included together. Just pay us five thousand taels of gold!”
"Five thousand taels? Gold?"
Wang Yaozu opened his mouth wide and exclaimed.
"You think I underpaid? That's right. You are the young master of the Wang family in Longxi. This price does not reflect your worth and status, so let's round it up, ten thousand taels of gold."
Lianyi said, "I definitely don't mean to look down on you," and doubled the price again.
“Come, let’s make a written statement so that we won’t be unclear in the future.”
Lianyi came to the counter and knocked on the counter. The boss then tremblingly poked his head out from behind the cabinet and asked stammeringly:
"Xia Xia Nu, what are your orders? "
"Take out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone for use"
"Yes!"
When the innkeeper heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and took it from under the counter. I took out the brush, white paper and inkstone and put them neatly on the counter.
Lianyi took up the pen and wrote down the escort contract, then dried the ink and waved to Wang Yaozu who had already stood up:
"Master Wang, come! Sign your name, and our employment relationship will be officially established. "
Wang Yaozu carefully crossed the obstacles in the hall and came to the counter. After reading the contents of the deed, he signed his name very spinelessly, and then was pulled down by Ripple. Red handprint.
"Come, make two copies, one for you and one for me. I hope you can obey the arrangements along the way and survive to return to the Wang family in Longxi smoothly."
