Sword from Hengshan

Chapter 12 Promotion
Zhao Rong returned to the hut and opened the package.

The white money was counted, and it turned out to be fifty taels!

"This"

"In the future, I can no longer blame my boss for cheating me out of money. The money I get back is more than the tuition I paid."

Picking up the silver and weighing it, I thought of Bao Butian's attitude today, and I probably understood Bao Datong's good intentions.

This kindness was naturally accepted.

Even if I return the silver, I still owe Lao Bao a favor.

He was actually quite happy. Lao Bao was the first person to make a big investment in him. He was barely an angel, which made Zhao Rong feel satisfied and a little proud.

Bao Bulian is not a great talent, but he is quite upright and has practiced boxing and kicking skills. In terms of shaping, he is definitely better than Bao Datong.

Zhao Rong has already made plans for the future.

To develop combat power and develop the guild, both are indispensable.

After suppressing his thoughts, he sat down and opened a letter in the package to read.

It is Bao Datong's handwriting.

First there were some polite compliments on Yun Yun, and then came the inside story that Zhao Rong was most concerned about. Lao Bao mentioned something that he accidentally learned a few days ago.

Holding the letter in hand, Zhao Rong paced back and forth.

"At the end of July, I saw off a friend at Qun Yu Yuan. I came back drunk in the evening and accidentally ran into a dispute."

At that time, there was a period of chaos in Hengyang City, with gangs fighting around, and the Haisha Gang on Shajiao Island swallowed up many small gangs.

Because it affected the business of the Red Wolf Gang in the city, a fight broke out between the two largest gangs.

This incident spread throughout the streets, and Zhao Rong had heard about it for a long time.

The news brought by Lao Bao was even more exciting.

"The Red Wolf Gang lost to the Haisha Gang, which led the Hengshan disciples to take action. Unexpectedly, these Hengshan disciples were intercepted and killed by unknown masters on the way. I happened to meet an escaped Hengshan disciple. He was seriously injured and bleeding. He asked me to ask for help from the Hengshan Sect. ”

"I heard some movement behind me and hid in a chicken coop nearby. I saw this disciple being killed by a masked man, but the one who followed to dispose of the body was the leader of the Haisha Gang."

"This man showed up at Luosu Wharf with a big scar on his face. They all called him Hall Master Gao."

"The Haisha Gang has no guts to provoke the Hengshan Sect, but the people behind them seem to be here for the Hengshan Sect. Because these masters only attack the Hengshan disciples and don't care about the members of the Red Wolf Gang."

"The Changrui Escort Bureau has been worshiping the Hengshan Sect all year round. With its blessing, it can naturally be regarded as its wings."

"Now, the trouble has come to the escort agency."

"Brother Zhao, if you hadn't wanted to join the Hengshan Sect, I wouldn't have introduced you to Lu Shilai."

"But the matter has come to this. When escorts are sent out in the near future, you must pay attention to everything. The main thing is to protect your life."

"Burn it after reading it, cherish it."

"..."

Zhao Rong put the letter on the candle and burned it.

Haisha Gang, Scarface Hall Master Gao?
Wouldn’t that mean you are tall and strong?
Cold sweat broke out on Zhao Rong's back. Some time ago, he used the false identity of Mo Da disciple to fool the other party. At that time, his life depended on him.

Fortunately, we were relatively close to the pier at the time, and we deceived the other party into transmitting signals.

The Haisha Gang, the fake chef Lao Wang, the gangster I killed with lime that night, the forces behind the Hengshan Sect, the robbery.
The pieces of information were connected together, and Zhao Rong felt like the clouds had been cleared away.

In the past, the Haisha Gang would only rob merchant ships and had no interest in fishing boats with no oil or water at all.

But all the people in Zhang San's boat in Zhangjiawu next door were killed. I'm afraid it was also intentional by the Haisha Gang.

Zhao Rong's face was gloomy, and he flicked away the ashes of the letter beside the candle.

The Haisha Gang may have caused the killings to attract the attention of the Hengshan faction and lure them out of the city. After all, in the area of ​​Hengzhou Prefecture, the righteous forces respect the Hengshan Sect, and it is up to them to uphold the righteous path and act chivalrously.

In this way, it would be easier for the people hiding behind to take action against the Hengshan faction.

"It's no wonder that the fake Lao Wang wants to commit a big case in Changrui Escort Agency!"

"The bigger things get, the easier it is for the Hengshan Sect to be dragged into the water."

"The next dart will have a hard time leaving."

After thinking about it, Zhao Rong felt an even greater sense of crisis and hated the actions of the Haisha Gang and the people behind it.

Touching the jade pendant around his neck, a stream of cold air calmed him down.

At the moment, Zhao Rong sat down cross-legged and once again practiced the internal strength according to the Zen postures in the "Yi Jin Jing" and "Marrow Cleansing Sutra".

An hour later, his face was flushed and full of vitality.

But Zhao Rong's eyes were a little dim.

"Unfortunately, I know too little about the acupoints and meridians, and I don't understand the secrets of the inner energy of this world. I can't find the right method and I'm not on the right path."

"The two scriptures in my memory should be among the best internal energy techniques in the world today." What is Zhao Rong missing?
A great master who showed him the door.

It would be great if you could also teach some martial arts moves.

Thinking of Lu Shilai, Zhao Rong was quite depressed.

Lao Lu is not good enough!

I have made meritorious deeds for Chang Rui, I have shed blood for Chang Rui, and I want to see Master Liu San.

Lao Lu, Lao Lu, why don’t you recommend me?
No wonder the Hengshan School has to be compared with the Huashan Mom and Pop Shop. This youth training system is too slow. Aren't you afraid that I will switch to Lao Yue?
Complaints are complaints, but Zhao Rong still calmed down and practiced Kung Fu.

Although most of the exercises rely on Zen postures, the speed of internal strength improvement is much faster than ordinary exercises.

Of course, the effect of the jade pendant on making people fall into trance quickly is also indispensable.

When grandpa came back from the fish market, Zhao Rong gave the silver to the old man for safekeeping.

He has plans to keep a little more money.

In the future, when I have the ability, I can open some reliable stores in Hengyang City and earn a living for Zhaojiawu's relatives.

Since he came to this world, he has been taken care of by the neighbors in the dock.

Even if it was a small favor, Zhao Rong would not forget it.

On the fourth day after the Changrui Escort Agency was leaked, Zhao Rong returned to his post dragging his 'sick body'. Lao Chen, the officer in charge of the Escort Agency who reported on his duties, had a smile on his face and arranged the most labor-saving job for him.

Warehouse guard.

Previously, Lao Zhou was on duty, but after the warehouse was burned down, the escort agency immediately added more people.

Sitting outside the warehouse like a door god, this is a typical job where he does nothing but contributes to nothing, and contributes to nothing small.

But it does not belong to the escort agency's rotation, and only those who are absolutely trustworthy can be assigned it.

Zhao Rong found out the fake cook and wounded him again. It can be said that he became famous in one battle.

As evening approached, Lu Shilai came over with a smile on his face.

"Brother Rong, I have something good to tell you."

Zhao Rong was ecstatic inside.

Mr. Liu San wants to see me?

"What good thing?" Zhao Rong tried to stay calm.

Lu Shilai patted him on the shoulder:

"Congratulations, you will be the escort of Changrui Escort Agency from now on."

"It takes at least three or four years to be promoted from a bodyguard to an escort. You are a special case. Your monthly salary has been reduced from two taels to forty taels."

what?
Zhao Rong's eyelids drooped, showing a 'very happy' smile.

"Is it too soon?"

"Don't worry, not only the two escort chiefs, but also the deputy head of the Dragon Hall strongly agrees."

"Thank you, Mr. Lu, for your cultivation. I will treat you at Qifeng Tower tomorrow!" Zhao Rong thanked him with a smile.

Lu Shilai patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "There is no need to treat us. Everyone has been very busy recently and has endless things to do."

"The letter from the chief escort will be sent back to the escort office a few days later."

"But this time there will be many experts in the world. I will introduce them to you when the time comes."

"Watch more and learn more, and be ready to go out as a escort before the end of the year."

Lu Shilai lowered his voice slightly and got down to business: "I will take you to see the outside world. I will wait until I visit my mentor at the end of the year to discuss the matter. With your qualifications as brother Rong, my mentor will accept you as his direct disciple, and the probability of entering the inner sect is very high."

"At that time, Lu will have to rely on Brother Rong."

Zhao Rong looked frightened and clasped his fists repeatedly: "Senior Brother Lu, I will never forget your kindness!"

Lu Shilai smiled warmly and looked at Zhao Rong with a much kinder look.

He revealed:
"I have consulted Senior Brother Xiang Danian recently and learned that my mentor is immersed in music. At this time, he does not like outsiders to disturb him. Just so you know, it is not Lu who is being careless."

"Brother Rong, if you have time, you can read the music scores more, so that you can reply in front of your mentor."

"Senior Brother Lu, you must come to my house another day. I have a lot of experience in cooking fish. I must show off my skills to let Senior Brother Lu have a try."

"Hahaha, definitely."

Zhao Rong thanked him from the bottom of his heart, but also felt quite guilty. He should not have slandered Lao Lu before.

It seems that the problem with the Hengshan faction's lack of strength is not the youth training and overseas martial arts exploration, but the management being too lax.
