Chapter 150 Footwork
Zhang Xiaohua was puzzled when she heard that she had chosen this "Worry-Free Heart Sutra", so why didn't she practice it? Is it because he is afraid that he will go crazy?
Just as he was about to ask me, I heard Ou Peng continue to say: "You picked this book on inner strength and mental skills, which makes it difficult for me. Oh, forget it."
After saying that, he beckoned Zhang Chengyue forward and lowered his head to give a few instructions. Zhang Chengyue was very surprised when he heard this and glanced at Zhang Xiaohua several times. After Ou Peng finished his instructions, Zhang Chengyue hurriedly walked out.
Ou Peng continued: "Zhang Xiaohua, now your second brother joins the Piaomiao Sect and becomes a disciple, and you have also obtained the inner strength and mental skills. We, the Piaomiao Sect, have always been clear about grudges and grudges when doing things, so our kindness towards you has been finally ended." , are you satisfied?"
Zhang Xiaohua hurried forward and saluted respectfully: "Master Ou, your words are wrong. My two brothers have received such great favor from you. I am very grateful. Thank you, Master Ou, for your support."
Ou Peng turned to Ou Yan again and said with a smile: "Yan'er, are you satisfied with this treatment?"
Ou Yan said with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, brother. My sister is very satisfied."
Ou Peng laughed and said, "Okay, okay, one family doesn't speak the same language as the other."
Ou Yan stood up and said: "Brother, I will not disturb you for discussing the affairs of the faction since I have wasted so much of your time. I will take my leave now."
Ou Peng said: "Okay, go back and rest quickly, and pay more attention to your health in the future."
Ou Yan said: "I understand, brother."
After saying that, Ou Yan called Zhang Xiaohua and He Tianshu, who had watched the show for a long time, and left the meeting hall together.
Zhang Xiaohua looked at her second brother who had buried deep joy and looked at him with grateful eyes. She nodded with a smile and patted her chest to indicate that she had gained nothing. Then she followed the somewhat lost He Tianshu. , walked out of the meeting hall.
The three of them had just turned around several courtyards and were about to enter the garden when they heard someone from behind shouting: "Master Ou, please stay."
Ou Yan and others stopped when they heard the sound. When they turned around, they saw a person chasing after them from a distance. When they saw clearly, it turned out to be Zhang Chengyue, Ou Peng's eldest disciple.
When he got closer, Ou Yan asked: "Cheng Yue, does your master have anything else to do?"
Zhang Chengyue saluted and said, "Master, please wait a moment. Master has something to give to Zhang Xiaohua."
After hearing this, Ou Yan and others were all surprised. Seeing that everyone did not understand and did not explain, Zhang Chengyue smiled and took out a few thin pages of paper from his arms, solemnly handed them to Zhang Xiaohua's hand, and said seriously: " Zhang Xiaohua, this is the first three levels of the 'Piao Miao Step' technique that I got from the library on Master's order. I will give it to you now. The first three levels of the 'Piao Miao Step' technique do not require much internal strength. Gao, I guess you can practice it, but you have to remember that the 'Piaomiao Step' technique, and by the way, the 'Worry-free Heart Sutra', can only be practiced by you. Without the consent of the Piaomiao Sect, You cannot teach this skill to others, and you cannot lose this skill, otherwise, I, the Piaomiao Sect, will punish you depending on the severity of the case, or even abolish your martial arts."
Zhang Xiaohua asked in confusion: "What kind of technique is this 'Piaomiao Step'? Why is it so demanding? I don't know internal skills, and I have never learned any footwork. How should I practice like this?"
After hearing this, Zhang Chengyue still smiled and said: "Master has something to say first. If you have any questions about practicing this 'Piaomiao Step', you can ask He Tianshu at the Pharmacy Hall."
Then, he turned to He Tianshu and said, "He Tianshu, you heard what I just said to Zhang Xiaohua, right?"
He Tianshu nodded reflexively. At this moment, he was still jealous of Zhang Xiaohu's luck. Naturally, he didn't hear it clearly, but he still said: "I heard it."
Zhang Chengyue continued: "What I just said also applies to you. Do you understand?"
He Tianshu was still at a loss and said: "Okay, I understand..."
Before he finished speaking, He Tianshu suddenly woke up and was overjoyed. He quickly saluted Zhang Chengyue and said, "He Tianshu of Pharmacy Hall understands.
Please convey Senior Brother Zhang’s disciple’s gratitude to the leader of the gang and thank him for his grace. "
Zhang Chengyue nodded and said: "I will definitely convey your gratitude. This is what you deserve. Okay, Master, I will leave."
After saying that, he bowed to Ou Yan and left.
Zhang Xiaohua, who was standing next to him, was very puzzled when he saw He Tianshu crying with gratitude. She tugged on his sleeves and pulled back the shadow of Zhang Chengyue who was looking at him in the distance. His grateful eyes were still unabated, and he asked in confusion: " Captain He, they have gone far away, don’t be grateful anymore, they can’t see it.”
He Tianshu turned around, his heart still surging, his eyes full of moisture, and he said to Ou Yan: "Master, last time my subordinates failed to protect you and you were injured. I thought that not being punished was an extrajudicial favor, but now you have been given Such an opportunity was something He never dreamed of."
Ou Yan smiled and comforted: "Your gang leader has always made clear rewards and punishments. Your contribution to the attack last time was not small. If it weren't for you, the situation would probably have changed a lot. I never rewarded you. Maybe it was your gang leader." I didn’t think about how to reward you. This time I just have the opportunity, let’s practice together with Zhang Xiaohua.”
He Tianshu kept being humble and did not dare to take credit.
Zhang Xiaohua was very puzzled when she heard this. She stuck her head and asked: "Captain He, what's so good about this footwork? Is it very powerful? How is it better than the "Worry-Free Heart Sutra"?"
After hearing this, He Tianshu struck Zhang Xiaohua's protruding head with a blast, and said sternly: "One of the three great magical arts of the Piaomiao Sect, do you think it is powerful or not? I don't know how your "Worry-free Heart Sutra" is. However, judging from the faces and reactions of others in the meeting hall just now, I guess it’s just a rubbish technique.”
After hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua was immediately discouraged and said in a low voice: "But this is also the mentality of the second floor. It's better than the ordinary ones on the first floor."
Of course, there was one thing he didn't dare to say: "Besides, I got this book from the third floor."
He Tianshu said: "If you have a good intention, would our leader still need to ask senior brother to give you this ethereal step?"
Zhang Xiaohua suddenly understood what Ou Peng said just now.
Zhang Xiaohua said helplessly: "Then I have no choice but to practice this rubbish technique."
However, he immediately laughed at himself: "That's better than the ordinary mental methods in the world."
Ou Yan listened at the side and comforted: "Don't think so much now. I'll ask Sister Qin later and let them talk."
Afterwards, the three of them passed through the small door and returned to Huanxi Villa.
As for the head of the Lotus Escort Bureau, Luo Da, he felt very uncomfortable after hearing Fourth Master Wen's words, and his expression changed even more gloomy and very uncertain. However, he had no choice but to come to the small courtyard where Zhang Xiaohu lived and guard him. At the door of the cabin, he was pacing and regretting. He did not regret that he had said bad things about others behind their backs, but regretted that he did not expect that Huanxi Villa would stand up for Zhang Xiaohua. In fact, in his mind, the two Zhang Xiaohu brothers He is just a countryman who has just come to Pingyang City from the countryside for less than a year. Zhang Xiaohu is just lucky. He exchanged Zhang Xiaohua's injury for the opportunity to practice internal martial arts in the martial arts hall, and also got some skills from Fourth Master Wen. A private promise, and Zhang Xiaohua was injured like that, but he didn't see any loss from Yu Deyi, and Huanxi Villa didn't stand up and say anything, so head escort Luo thought that Zhang Xiaohua was just a soft persimmon that others could rub. .
In principle, he asked Zhang Xiaohua to pay for the food. If Zhang Xiaohu paid, they would naturally feel resentful. If Zhang Xiaohu did not pay, of course he could make irresponsible remarks in front of Fourth Master Wen. Even if Fourth Master Wen wanted to protect Zhang Xiaohu, he was helpless. Things developed according to his own trajectory. Fourth Master Wen had to call Zhang Xiaohu to confront him and urged him to pay the fee. But what was a little flaw was that Zhang Xiaohu actually paid the fee first, which made him look like a villain. However, These are all flaws, but the final outcome was beyond his control. Huanxi Villa actually stood up for Zhang Xiaohua for such a trivial matter! Just for less than a penny, the owner of Huanxi Villa became angry. Although he didn't know the specific reason, Head Guard Luo still felt that there was indeed some risk in the sinister things behind this, and it would be better for him to do less in the future. As for getting Zhang Xiaohu's forgiveness, he was still very sure. He was the old man of the Lotus Escort Agency and the head of the escort agency. Zhang Xiaohu was just a thug. If he wanted to stay in the Lotus Escort Agency, he would definitely accept his own Apology from above.
It's a pity that Mr. Luo was pacing around the small courtyard countless times. The sun was setting in the sky, but there was still no sign of Zhang Xiaohu. Mr. Luo really lost his patience and told Zhang Xiaohu that he was peeking at him. After coming back, he went to his own place and left with his hands behind his back. As he walked, he muttered: "Isn't he just a pickpocket?"
But knowing that it was already getting dark, Zhang Xiaohu still didn't come to see Head Guard Luo.
Head escort Luo was a little angry. This little tiger's airs were really big. Could it be that he really wanted me, the head escort, to apologize to him? Just as I was thinking about it, I saw a waiter running over in a panic. When he entered the door, he shouted: "Defender, it's not good, it's not good."
Upon seeing this, Chief Luo scolded: "What's wrong? Why are you so panicked? Is the sky falling?"
The executioner laughed and said, "How can it be so serious, Mr. Big Escort? It's just Zhang Xiaohu who is back."
Mr. Luo's brows furrowed even more, and he said, "Didn't you tell him that I asked him to come over?"
The executioner said: "It was only after I said this to him that I said things were bad."
"Why is that?" Luo Dabao asked curiously.
The executioner replied: "Just now, I saw Zhang Xiaohu returning to the small courtyard, so I quickly told him that you had been waiting for him all morning and didn't see him. When you left at noon, you told him to let him go. After he came back, he hurriedly came to your residence to find you."
Mr. Luo let out a "poof" and cursed: "Why can't you even say anything? Why did you ask me to wait in his courtyard all morning? Just let him come to me, why are you talking so much nonsense!"
The executioner continued: "Yes, the little one is damned. He is not very good at talking. However, after hearing this, the little tiger Zhang ignored it and entered the house with a smile. The little one was very surprised and walked to the door. Seeing Zhang Xiaohu packing the package by himself, I casually asked him what he was doing. What do you think he said?"
Miss Luo nodded and said, "How do I know what he is packing the package for? It can't be that he is not working at the escort office."
The executioner exclaimed in surprise: "You are so smart, head escort. No wonder you are the head escort. That's exactly what he said. That's why I hurriedly came to report to you."
"What? He quits?" Head Luo exclaimed and stood up from his chair.
Pushing away the executioner, he quickly rushed out of the door.
The assassin looked at Luo Darthead's disappearing figure and laughed at himself: "This Darthead's Qinggong Qingqing is really amazing, but the sky hasn't fallen yet, so it can't be so fast."
By the time Mr. Luo arrived at Zhang Xiaohu's cabin, Zhang Xiaohu had already packed his things.
As escort Luo entered the room, he immediately asked: "Zhang Xiaohu, I heard that you don't want to work in the escort agency anymore?"
When Zhang Xiaohu saw that it was Mr. Luo, he smiled and said, "Yes, Mr. Wen, I have already delivered the goods in the accounting room with Mr. Wen. I will come back to clean up and prepare to leave."
Head Guard Luo frowned and said, "Everything has been settled in the accounting room? Don't leave any tail behind."
Zhang Xiaohu said: "Don't worry, head escort, the escort matters have been settled a few days ago. Today I just received my monthly payment. Now it's clear."
The escort leader Luo said: "Actually, I only deal with your brother's matters on a case-by-case basis. You also know that I always think about the escort agency and am not targeting you alone..."
Zhang Xiaohu interrupted Mr. Luo and said, "I know what Mr. Luo is thinking. This matter has passed, so let him go."
Head Guard Luo said happily: "So, Zhang Xiaohu, have you forgiven me?"
With that said, he took out the ten taels of silver, handed it to Zhang Xiaohu, and said, "Then take this silver back."
With a smile on his lips, Zhang Xiaohu looked at Mr. Luo, pushed back the hand he handed him, and said: " Mr. Luo is dedicated to serving the public, and I must fulfill my obligations. Act according to the rules. Naturally, I must listen to Mr. Lu. Yes, as for whether to forgive or not, the head escort must have thought too much. How can I complain about the rules? I have already paid my brother’s food expenses to the accountant, and now that the money has been delivered, there is no reason to take it back. . These ten taels of silver were given by Huanxi Villa, so what do they have to do with me? If the escort leader Luo returns, he will also find someone from Huanxi Villa, but it would be a mistake to find him."
Mr. Luo didn't seem to hear him, and he kept giving in. Finally, Zhang Xiaohu couldn't help but just put the money on the table and said, "Why is Mr. Luo so embarrassing for me? Just put the money here."
Head Guard Luo said helplessly: "Fourth Master Wen said earlier that I must obtain your forgiveness no matter what."
Zhang Xiaohu smiled and said: "Didn't I just say that I have no complaints about these rules that are beneficial to the escort agency, and there is no understanding at all. Besides, when he said goodbye to Fourth Master Wen, he didn't mention it either The head escort doesn’t need to be too concerned about this matter.”
After hearing this, the head escort Luo became lively and said with a smile: "In that case, I will take it as your understanding. Actually, Zhang Xiaohu, you did a good job in the escort agency, why did you suddenly resign? I was still thinking of waiting. If you work hard for a few more years, I will suggest to Mr. Wen that we let you be an escort. From now on, we will cooperate well and let you continue to be my deputy and train you properly. If you leave like this, the escort agency It’s a pity that a good man is missing.”
Zhang Xiaohu smiled and cupped his hands and said, "Thank you very much, Mr. Luo, for your kindness. It's a pity that I won't be able to enjoy it."
Dart Luo patted Zhang Xiaohu on the shoulder and said: "It's okay, Zhang Xiaohu, you will always be my best deputy. I will always leave a door open for you here. If you don't do well outside, you can always come to me." I, I will definitely give you a good word from the head escort."
After hearing this, Zhang Xiaohu cupped his hands again and said: "Okay, I remember what Mr. Luo said. I will take my leave now. If one day, I don't get along well in the Piao Miao Sect, I will definitely come back to Mr. Mr. Luo." , I hope that Mr. Luo will be able to reward me with the next bite of rice."
After saying that, he picked up his package and went out without looking back.
Director Luo looked at Zhang Xiaohu's back with a smile and said: "No problem, Zhang Xiaohu. If you don't do well in the Piaomiao sect in the future, feel free to come to me..."
"What? Piaomiao Sect?!" Luo Dabaotou finally woke up.
At this time, the assassin who just now slipped in and said to Mr. Luo, "Head Luo, I just got the news. I heard from Yu Deyi and Yu Lun from the martial arts school that this little tiger got such bad luck for some reason. , was accepted as a disciple by the Piaomiao Sect, and both Yu Deyi and Yu Lun went to drink wine."
With a "pop" sound, Dart Luo slapped the executioner on the face and said sternly: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"I didn't just know this, so why don't I come and tell you, old man?" Na Zaizi covered his face with his hands and said aggrievedly.
"You..." Dart Luo stomped his head, pointed at the man, and didn't know what to say. He picked up the silver on the table and ran out of the house, as if he wanted to chase Zhang Xiaohu.
But Zhang Xiaohu had already mounted his horse, and along with the Piaomiao Sect disciples who came with him, they ran off to somewhere unknown.
At this time, Zhang Xiaohua from Huanxi Villa was sitting in her cabin. There was a sky-blue booklet spread out on the table, and beside it were a few thin pages full of handwriting.
Needless to say, these are the first three levels of the "Worry-free Heart Sutra" and "Piao Miao Step".
Zhang Xiaohua first picked up the "Worry-Free Heart Sutra" and looked through it roughly. Zhang Xiaohua had never seen ordinary internal skills and didn't know what they looked like. However, although there was no content in the "Worry-Free Heart Sutra" If you look closely, you can clearly see that this inner strength method is divided into eighteen levels. Each level has specific formulas, taboos during practice, and expressions of realms. There seems to be nothing wrong with it, but I want to I don’t understand why Ou Peng said he doesn’t know how to practice?
Is this an incomplete martial art?
Or is it a technique that can easily lead to obsession?
While I was thinking, I suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.
