Chapter 142 Misunderstanding

A standard robbery in the world ended like this.

I thought I would see the lively Zhang Xiaohua, but I was given a good education by Zhang Xiaohu. Although I did not see the bloody side of the world, I understood the greed of human nature and the transactions of power and money in the world. At the same time, I also understood better. , in this world, only the fist is the boss.

In the days that followed, Zhang Xiaohua prayed not to encounter any more dangers, bandits or the like, which was very different from the excitement she felt when she first arrived.

However, the storms in the world will not change because of someone's thoughts. The road is not the Chaoyang Road. During the process, we still encountered some short-sighted thieves who did not take the Lotus Escort Agency and the Piaomiao Sect seriously. However, as long as the stinky The fart doesn't make a sound, the loud fart doesn't stink, how discerning can those thieves who can show up? Basically, they all fell apart under the powerful force of the Lotus Escorts who were united with Luo Dabaotou as the center. However, the world is ruthless and swords and guns have no eyesight. Several of the Escorts were still injured, and even one of them had his wrist cut off. It was almost broken. Although the escort had good wound medicine with him, and the team also found the best doctor in the next town where they stopped, the injury was serious after all. His life was saved, but the hand was completely damaged. of abolished.

Later in the journey, the injured escort was lying on the carriage behind Zhang Xiaohua. Zhang Xiaohua could see his dull eyes and gloomy face from time to time, which made Zhang Xiaohua's originally lively mood feel unusually heavy.

Fortunately, the force of the Lotus Escort Bureau is still good, and there was only one seriously injured escort along the way. Although Zhang Xiaohua felt very uncomfortable, the escort leader Luo was extremely happy. He felt that he was a lucky star and came back all the way. Too smooth.

This seaside town is really far away from Pingyang City. It wasn't until the convoy traveled for more than a month that it finally entered the sphere of influence of the Miao Miao Sect. The escorts seemed to be very sensitive to their own sphere of influence. According to the plan, they should have arrived in the afternoon. However, due to a broken carriage, the trip was delayed. In the afternoon, they only arrived at a remote mountain village. If it had been a few days ago, , the convoy must have set up camp to rest, and that night, not only the head of the escort, but also everyone in the other escort agencies was determined to move forward. Even if they had to travel at night, they had to get to their own territory first, so the group of people drove the carriage and took advantage of the opportunity. We walked forward in the dusk, and it was almost midnight before we entered a small market town.

As soon as he entered the market town, Naluo Dabaotou let out a long sigh and shouted loudly: "Brothers, we have arrived at our own territory. Haha"

Everyone was laughing, and the sleepy Zhang Xiaohua looked puzzled.

In the next few days, the escort team obviously did not have the same martial law as before, and their schedule was much more casual. Therefore, by the time they arrived at Pingyang City, it was already midnight.

Although Pingyang City is a city, it is only an inland city and has no strategic significance. Therefore, only three of the four city gates are closed at night, leaving one for people to enter and exit. This is also one of the reasons why the Lotus Escort Agency fleet travels at night. Who doesn’t want to return to the Escort Agency early, clean up, put everything down, and fall asleep easily?

Of course, Zhang Xiaohua fell into a deep sleep as soon as the motorcade approached Pingyang City without cleaning her personal hygiene.

The convoy quickly arrived at the door of the Escort Bureau. It was already late at night, and the door of the Escort Bureau had naturally been closed for a long time. Someone went up and knocked on the door. The person who opened the door saw that someone who had gone out to escort came back. How could it be late at night? Complaining about being disturbed, he quickly opened the middle door and had more than 20 carriages rushed to the square of the Escort Bureau. Dozens of people returned to the Escort Bureau and made a lot of noise. The guards at the concierge all knew about it. The leader first congratulated Mr. Luo, the escort chief. An Ran returned to Pingyang City with the people from the escort agency and the merchants, and then said to Zhang Xiaohu: "Zhang Xiaohu, you are finally back. Fourth Master Wen has been looking for you for many days. He ordered that as soon as he sees you coming back, he will immediately Let you go see him!"

Zhang Xiaohu was stunned, why is this? He carefully confirmed: "Do I have to go even if it is midnight?"

The guard smiled bitterly and said, "That's what Fourth Master said,

But he didn't say what time it was. Since you are back now, I think you should go there, otherwise it would not be good to make Fourth Master angry. "

Zhang Xiaohu thought for a while and said, "Okay, thank you for reminding me."

Then, Zhang Xiaohu came to the square, first held the sleeping Zhang Xiaohua and put him on the kang of his hut, then packed up his belongings and took them back to the house, and then hesitantly came to the inner courtyard. Fourth Master Wen’s room.

It was past midnight, and Fourth Master Wen's yard was quiet. Zhang Xiaohu tiptoed to the door, hesitated again and again, and was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, when a slightly old voice came from inside: "Who is it? Why are you coming to me now?"

The sound was so sudden that Zhang Xiaohu trembled in fright, and he secretly admired it in his heart. This ginger is still very hot. Fourth Master Wen's internal skills are very advanced in the Lotus Escort Agency. As soon as I approached the door, he heard Here it is, oh, how much longer do I have to practice to achieve this kind of achievement?

Fourth Master Wen in the room felt angry for a while, and cursed in his heart: "Which unlucky child is there out there? Why doesn't he have any sense of respect for the elderly and love the young? My old man usually has insomnia and has trouble sleeping. It happened to be that he closed up early today. Eyes, I was almost asleep, but I was woken up by you. If you want to come, you can come. You are also very tiptoeing, making me think he is some evil person. The old heart is so frightened that he jumps. If you hadn’t raised your hand and knocked on the door, I would have been there right away. Jump out of the window and beat the living daylights out of you, letting you know the consequences of waking the old man from his sleep."

Zhang Xiaohu stood up straight, his tone was full of respect, and he said, "It's me, Zhang Xiaohu."

"Zhang Xiaohu?" Fourth Master Wen asked hesitantly: "What do you want to do here now?"

Zhang Xiaohu was shocked when he heard Fourth Master Wen questioning him, and quickly said: "Fourth Master, I just came back from running escorts outside. The fourth boy at the door said that you are looking for me. If you see me, let me come to see you immediately. .”

"Ah!" Fourth Master Wen said angrily: "That's it, cough cough~"

Fourth Master Wen was so angry that he coughed, took a sip of water, and then continued: "Did I say such a thing? But even if I did, there is no need to come in the middle of the night."

Zhang Xiaohu said awkwardly: "Xiao Si said that you were in a hurry to listen to the instructions at that time, thinking it was something important. Besides, you didn't say you couldn't come at night, so he informed me then. If you don't have anything to do, then I'll do it first Go back, wait until daybreak, and then come here to listen to your teachings."

After hearing this, Fourth Master Wen said: "Oh, I know, I ordered this a month ago. It has been almost two months, and I have almost forgotten it. Alas, people tend to forget things easily as they get older. Son, okay, you don’t have to go back. I’ll get up in a moment. Anyway, tonight will definitely be a sleepless night.”

Zhang Xiaohu waited for a moment before Fourth Master Wen opened the door and let him in.

The two of them sat down, and Fourth Master Wen poured water. After Zhang Xiaohu drank it, Fourth Master Wen stared at Zhang Xiaohu and said, "Zhang Xiaohu, this escort trip is not short. Thank you for your hard work."

Zhang Xiaohu said quickly: "I don't dare, Fourth Master Wen, I'm just a deputy to Chief Luo. Chief Luo has the final say on many things. I'm just a helper."

Fourth Master Wen said with a smile: "This escort trip lasted past the New Year, and hard work is inevitable. Do the people below have any complaints?"

Zhang Xiaohu replied: "I don't have anything else to say. I just want the Escort Bureau to give me more subsidies. After all, it's because the Escort Bureau is celebrating the New Year away from home and can't reunite with my family."

Fourth Master Wen twirled his sparse beard and said: "This is inevitable. The Escort Bureau will not treat anyone who contributes to the Escort Bureau badly. This is true for this kind of outing for the New Year, and the same is true for greater contributions than this."

Zhang Xiaohu was stunned and said to himself: "Haun Cai, what does this mean?"

However, he still said respectfully: "Then on behalf of the brothers, I would like to thank Fourth Master for taking care of me."

Fourth Master Wen waved his hand and said: "Haha, no need, it should be."

Then, after a moment of hesitation, he asked, "Did the escort trip go smoothly?"

Zhang Xiaohu was puzzled and said: "Yes, it's normal, that is, if you encounter some common bandits on the road, Mr. Luo can handle them with ease."

But I thought to myself: "What are you doing, old man? Are you unable to sleep and want to find someone to chat with? I am tired and still want to sleep."

Fourth Master Wen asked kindly: "Then when will you return to the escort agency?"

Zhang Xiaohu frowned and said, "Just now, when I entered the yard, I put my things in the house and came here."

Fourth Master Wen nodded and said, "Oh, then you haven't heard anything."

"News?" Zhang Xiaohu asked in shock, "What news?"

Fourth Master Wen thought for a while, then changed his expression to a sorrowful expression, and said: "Zhang Xiaohu, you can be regarded as my confidant. It is our fate to be able to work as a troublemaker in the Lotus Escort Agency. I think, You should also have the belief to contribute your youth, your own blood, your own sweat, and even your own life to the escort agency."

Zhang Xiaohu was even more stunned. These parallel sentences were said so gracefully that he couldn't react.

Seeing Zhang Xiaohu's surprised look, Fourth Master Wen continued: "Back then, I had the same idea as you and devoted myself to the Escort Agency. You see, I have struggled for most of my life to see the Escort Agency prosper to this day. The Escort Agency is my home, and it depends on everyone’s dedication and dedication. If I didn’t have the thought of dedicating myself to it, it would be impossible for the Escort Agency to be where it is today.”

Zhang Xiaohu was confused and said cautiously: "Fourth Master, is there something I didn't do well? Please give me timely guidance."

Fourth Master Wen smiled and said: "You did a good job. You didn't embarrass me."

Zhang Xiaohu opened his mouth and said, "Then you...?"

Fourth Master Wen once again put on a sad look and said, "That's it, I have some very sad news to tell you. I hope you are mentally prepared. I think you'd better do it first. You'd better stand still and listen to me carefully. Also, don't be anxious after listening."

Zhang Xiaohu said with a smile: "What news, Fourth Master, you have said so much, it makes me feel like the mountains are covered with mist and I am at a loss what to do."

Fourth Master Wen nodded and said: "Yes, he is indeed the person I like. His calmness alone is enough for a big job."

Then, Fourth Master Wen said: "Actually, I think you should also know that as the saying goes, live great and die gloriously. Some people are alive and he is dead. Some people are dead, but he is still alive in our hearts. And , Some people's death is heavier than Mount Tai, and some people's death is lighter than a feather. If you can reach this point one day, you will have no regrets in this life."

Zhang Xiaohu was filled with emotion when he saw Fourth Master Wen's outpouring of words, but he didn't dare to say anything. He just wanted to know what was the news that made him extremely sad?

Suddenly, he seemed to feel something, could it be at home?

Bad, is it a bandit from Xicui Mountain? Or a bully from Lu Town?

Zhang Xiaohu was confused all of a sudden. What should I do?

Fourth Master Wen didn't seem to notice Zhang Xiaohu's uncertain expression under the lamp, but he still said: "It's easy for a person to do one or two good things in his life. The most rare thing is to do good deeds every day and how many good things he can do." Things that make people grateful for a lifetime are touching in this life. Also, don't do good deeds because they are small, and don't do evil deeds because they are small. No matter how big or small the good deeds are, you should do them unremittingly. , not to mention those who bravely sacrificed their own lives for the sake of other people's lives. This act of self-sacrifice for others should be remembered by us. On behalf of the Lotus Escort Agency, on behalf of Huanxi Villa, and on behalf of the Piaomiao Sect, I would like to express my highest respect to you. !”

After finishing speaking, Fourth Master Wen wiped a handful of sweat from his forehead and said awkwardly: "Oh, it's really hard to remember the words written in Fan's big book bag. I've memorized them countless times, and why can't I say them well? Don’t blame me, I thought you would come back soon, but you didn’t expect to come back until today, and I haven’t read it in the past month.”

Alas, it’s hard for the old Fourth Master to memorize so much that he breaks out in a sweat in the winter. This shows that memorizing by rote is not the right way. Understanding and understanding the memory is the last word!

When Fourth Master Wen looked up from the pile of old papers, he saw Zhang Xiaohu's gloomy face and said sadly: "Zhang Xiaohu, it seems that you already know what I mean. The deceased has passed away, but the living must continue to live. You must express your condolences." Follow the change, turn grief into strength, continue to work hard, take over your brother's baton, inherit your brother's unfinished wish, contribute your blood and life to the Lotus Escort Bureau and the Piaomiao Sect!"

Zhang Xiaohu's face instantly brightened, his eyes widened, and his mouth opened wide enough to fit a duck egg in. He said with disbelief, "My brother? Zhang Xiaohua?"

Fourth Master Wen nodded heavily and said in an unusually low bass: "Yes, he is your brother, Zhang Xiaohua, a good employee of Huanxi Villa, a good image of Lotus Escort, a good friend of Miao Miao Sect, and our hero, He lives in our hearts forever and ever!”

Zhang Xiaohu shouted and stood up, saying: "This!!! Is this a mistake?!"

Fourth Master Wen said displeased: "How could such a thing go wrong? Sit down, sit down, look, I just praised your calmness, why are you so excited now? I know you can't accept this news for a while, this I just asked Fan Da from the escort agency to write something like this in his book bag. I have already told you half of it, but why are you still so rough, standing up all of a sudden when you are startled? Calm down, calm down, you have to be prepared for the landslide and not panic. Calmness, this is the basic quality that we leaders should have."

Zhang Xiaohu smiled, sat back in his chair and said, "Fourth Master, I was a little surprised when I heard the news, so I jumped up. Don't blame me."

Fourth Master Wen twirled his sparse beard and said, "Yes, I see you recovered very quickly. You are very like me. You will have a bright future in the future. I am optimistic about you!"

Afterwards, Fourth Master Wen stood up, took out a small wooden box from the small cabinet behind him, put it in front of Zhang Xiaohu, and said: "Although Zhang Xiaohua has left us, we will definitely publicize his touching deeds and let him His name has been left in the history of the world, but now the world is changing, and there are many situations that are unfavorable to the Piaomiao Sect. We cannot make this story of Xiaohua's sacrifice for the savior public yet, so we can only make some compensation in other aspects. This is Piaomiao Sect. The leader Ou Pengou sent it to me personally and asked me to pass it on to you to express my deep respect for Zhang Xiaohua."

Zhang Xiaohu opened the wooden box in confusion. Inside was a pile of thick banknotes. At a glance, there were hundreds of them, and the top one had a denomination of one hundred taels. There was actually one in the wooden box. A banknote worth ten thousand taels?

Zhang Xiaohu trembled with fright. He had never seen so many silver coins since he was born, and he was frightened to death. He pushed the wooden box and said, "Fourth Master, why is this? What happened to my brother Zhang Xiaohua? Did they make a mistake? I can't tell. How dare I accept this silver?"

Fourth Master Wen said: "I don't know the specific details. Huanxi Villa is very secretive, so I can't find out anything for the time being. I just heard from Qiu Tong that your brother Zhang Xiaohua loyally protects the Lord and saves Ouzhuang." Lord, gave his precious life.”

"What?" Zhang Xiaohu was stunned and said in surprise: "Is there such a thing? Why didn't I know? Why didn't Xiaohua tell me!"

"Telling you?" Fourth Master Wen said with a smile, "How could he tell you?"

Zhang Xiaohu said seriously: "Xiaohua, he is sleeping in my room right now. He came back with the escort team all the way. All the brothers in the escort team know it, but he only said that he fell into the water during the night camp. Li, you didn’t tell me so much.”

The hand that Fourth Master Wen was twisting his sparse beard trembled. A few more strands of the beard fell out, and the sparse beard became even sparser. He ignored the pain and stood up from the chair with a cry, almost as neatly as Zhang Xiaohu just now. He said sharply: "Really? Is he sleeping in your room now?"

It seemed that he was not as calm as when he reprimanded Zhang Xiaohu just now.

Zhang Xiaohu said: "Yes, he is in my room, sleeping soundly."

Fourth Master Wen quickly grabbed Zhang Xiaohu's hand and said, "Come on, hurry up, let me see."

Zhang Xiaohu was pulled to his feet and thought to himself: "Calm down, calm down, Fourth Master Wen, you are always a leader."
