Chapter 454 Giving Knife
"Of course there are secret medicines." Hong Xinghua said, "After all, everyone has to practice in the mountains, but there may not be secret medicines suitable for you. But I can ask someone to help you find them. Look, Geng Laoliu over there specializes in this."

Geng Laoliu nodded and agreed, "That's right. As long as you have money, I can find you any secret medicine, no matter how rare it is."

Coach Song also said hurriedly, "Yes, yes, we in Black Tiger Village also have secret medicines, and we have more secret medicines than Xinghua Village. It's cheaper to sell them to our own people. If the village doesn't have them, you can go to Geng Laoliu to get more."

Malu then said, "But I have lost all the money I have. Can I buy some secret medicine on credit?"

Hearing his words, Hong Xinghua frowned.

"We have our own rules in Xinghua Village. Secret medicine cannot be withdrawn in advance. Otherwise, if everyone does this, no matter how much secret medicine we take, it will not be enough. You are good at martial arts. You should go down the mountain more often to rob passing merchants. When the wealth is divided, you will naturally get a share."

Coach Song also felt that Malu was a little greedy. Before even entering the village, he was already eyeing the secret medicine in the village.

But for robbers, greed is not necessarily a bad thing, and greedy people are often easier to control.

Of course, the main reason was that he had just fought with Malu, and he felt a sense of appreciation for his talent. He wanted to recruit another powerful general for the Black Tiger Camp, so he took the initiative.

"How about this, if you are willing to join our village, I can ask Dalang and Erlang for some leniency and let you have some secret medicine on credit so that you can continue to practice. When you get your share of the money later, you can pay me back slowly."

"Then let's go to the Black Tiger Camp." Malu finally made his choice.

Coach Song felt relieved at last and a smile appeared on his face again. He said "good" three times in a row and patted Malu's shoulder excitedly.

"Brother He, don't worry. Since you and your sister-in-law have come to my Black Tiger Village, the village chief will definitely not treat you unfairly."

Hong Xinghua was a little disappointed and shook her head, saying, "Putting his wife in danger for a little profit, the disciples of Songxi Sword School are no better than this."

After saying that, she turned and walked up the mountain.

Malu ignored her. This woman said the grapes were sour because she couldn't eat them.

That was no small profit. Malu wanted to take this opportunity to find out where the warehouse where the secret medicine was stored in the Black Tiger Village, so that he could take action before leaving. If all went well, he would be able to fill the collection bag.

This is a full 1,000 kilograms of secret medicine. Even if you go to Baicaomen to buy the cheapest ones, it will cost at least several thousand taels of silver. If you are lucky enough to get high-star ingredients, you will make even more money.

Coach Song didn't know that this brother He in front of him had already coveted his family's secret medicine, and was still happy about the addition of new reinforcements to the village.

He immediately led the way, taking Malu and Gu Qingyi towards the Black Tiger Village.

The Black Tiger Village is not difficult to find, as it is located halfway up the mountain of Wohugang. However, the guards are very strict, with wooden walls and fences, as well as archers on the walls.

Rumor has it that the Du brothers were generals of the frontier army before they became bandits, and they took a group of remnants with them when they fled, so their stronghold was built like a military camp.

After entering the mountain stronghold, Malu finally understood why the Du brothers did not come to meet him in person. This was because the eldest brother Du Dalang had taken his men down the mountain to plunder yesterday, leaving Du Erlang to guard the stronghold, and it was not convenient for him to leave.

However, after hearing what happened down the mountain from Coach Song, Du Erlang still came out to welcome Malu. His eyes stayed on Gu Qingyi for half a second, but soon moved away.

Afterwards, he enthusiastically took Malu and Gu Qingyi on a tour of the village and had someone prepare a clean room for them.

It happened that it was completely dark at this time. Du Erlang had someone bring food. Before leaving, he said that he would find Malu to drink together after Dalang came back. It seemed that he respected Malu very much.

After he left, Gu Qingyi walked around the room, looked out the window a few times, and said in a low voice, "There is more than one secret sentry watching us."

Malu was not surprised by this. Although he had performed very well at the foot of the mountain and even took out the Songxi Quick Sword to prove his identity, he was an outsider after all. The Black Tiger Village and Du Erlang would not accept his words at face value and would probably send people to verify it.

Only after we have thoroughly investigated his identity and background will we truly treat him as one of our own.

Gu Qingyi was still worried, "There are nearly 400 people in the entire Black Wind Village. How are we going to find Qin Feng among so many people?"

"That's easy, just ask directly." Ma Lu said as he opened the door and shouted, "Who is Qin Feng?"

His voice was so full of energy that it startled the nearby sentries.
Fortunately, the door of the next door opened not long after, and a white-faced, beardless man walked out and clasped his fists towards Malu.

"I'm Zhang Yuan. Is this new friend looking for Qin Feng?"

Malu nodded, "Yes, we stayed in Yuchang County before going up the mountain. We met a young man from the Qin family. When he learned that we were going to Wohugang, he asked us to help bring something to Qin Feng."

"What is it?" Zhang Yuan asked.

"A knife."

Malu said as he pulled out his chef's knife.

"This knife looks quite special, but it's so short that it's probably difficult to make a weapon. So why does the younger generation of the Qin family want you to bring this knife to Qin Feng?" Zhang Yuan asked curiously.

Ma Lu shook his head. "How would I know that? I just felt sorry for him and helped him. If Qin Feng wasn't here, forget it."

In fact, the reason why Malu decided to "give away the knife" was only because after the chef's knife was upgraded to level 6, he could summon it back to his hand at any time without having to worry about losing it.

Zhang Yuan said, "I know Qin Feng. I'll take you to find him."

"Okay." Malu was not polite.

Zhang Yuan brought Malu to a small wooden house in the northwest corner of the village and knocked on the door. Soon a somewhat rough voice came from inside.

"Who?"

"It's me, Zhang Yuan." Zhang Yuan said.

"Ah, military advisor, what do you want to talk to me about?"

The wooden door opened quickly, and a man with a horse face and clothes draped over him walked out.

"Your younger generation asked someone to bring something to you." Zhang Yuan said.

Malu, who was standing by, had already stuffed the chef's knife into the horse-faced man's hand and said, "Take it."

"........."

Qin Feng looked at the short blade in his hand with a dull look, not quite understanding the situation.

But soon he seemed to have thought of something and said to Malu, "You...you met my nephew."

This time it was Malu's turn to be stunned. "Is that man your nephew? I don't know. He just said he was your junior."

"There's no doubt about it. The person you saw must be my nephew Qin Heng."

Qin Feng said excitedly, "Follow me into the house and tell me more about my nephew."

Zhang Yuan stood aside, listening to their conversation silently, without hearing anything wrong. Seeing that Qin Feng wanted to invite Malu into the house, he didn't want to follow him in, so he bowed to Malu again.

"Then you guys chat first. If you have anything else, you can come find me at my place."
