Sword from Hengshan

Chapter 13: Justice and Righteousness
Lu Shilai was planning a banquet, but the two of them didn't talk much.

Opening the skylight and speaking frankly, Lao Lu gave Zhao Rong a piece of reassurance. With the precedent of Long Ping, he was also worried that Zhao Rong would not understand the deeper meaning and would go to Qin Muchu.

And what about Zhao Rong?
After Lao Lu left, he was thinking about the things he needed to prepare before going out.

Ever since I got the news from Bao Datong, I knew how dangerous it was to send escorts recently.

On the other hand, following Lao Lu’s words, he considered the three most famous contemporary figures of the Hengshan School.

Mr. Mo Da from Xiaoxiang Yeyu, music guru Liu Zhengfeng, golden-eyed crow Lu Lianrong.

The three of them have become very famous in the world by virtue of their abilities. They are famous in such a large area as Kaifeng in the north, Shaozhou in the south, Qujing in the west and Yanping in the east.

If the three brothers and fellow apprentices were of the same mind, the Hengshan Sect would be in a completely different situation.

But when it comes to developing their sect, these three choices are completely different.

It's no wonder that after the Haisha Gang in the nearby city of Hengyang gained a backer, they dared to make small moves against the Hengshan faction behind their backs.

"With foreign enemies now, we should get rid of internal friction as soon as possible and transfer internal contradictions to external contradictions."

Zhao Rong felt as though he hated iron and said, "Senior brothers are united, how can the surrounding gangs have the guts to offend the Five Mountains Sword Sect?"

rectify!

This style of conduct must be rectified.

It wasn't until Lao Zhou from the warehouse handed him a broom and asked him to help sweep the dirt and dust that he realized that he had been worrying too much.

After a while, colleagues from all walks of life came to the door, and everyone in the escort agency was cleaning, wiping down the inside and outside to give it a new look and revive its atmosphere.

Zhao Rong looked at Lao Zhou, who was holding a feather duster, and remembered that he was quite skillful with the short knife that night, and he couldn't help but want to ask for advice.

"Brother Zhou, your sword skills are so fast and fierce that I admire you so much. I don't know what method you use?"

Lao Zhou was amiable and approachable, and there was no sign of his violent appearance that night.

The feather duster in his hand stopped and he made two gestures like a knife.

"Oh, it's normal that you haven't seen it before. This is my Zhou Family Dragon Rolling Knife."

Seeing that he was very interested, Lao Zhou talked about the origin:

"My grandfather was a warrior monk. He later followed the example of his predecessors and became a monk soldier. At that time, the monk soldiers were good at sticks and knives. For example, Zhixiang killed the Japanese pirates with his sword, Tongxiang's sword drove away the bandits, and he chopped down the wall like thunder. Bian Gong relied on his sword Ansejiang.”

He said excitedly: "Have you ever heard of Zhiju?"

"Monk Zhiju?" Zhao Rong made a wild guess.

"Yes."

Lao Zhou looked at him with a look that said, "You know how." "Monk Zhiju is good at practicing the Spring and Autumn Sword. He is outstanding in martial arts and has extraordinary power. He has said that the Duke of Guan has returned to the world."

"My grandfather was influenced by them and used the Baihua Dao and Guantou Dao techniques he learned in the temple with battle formations. After practicing more, he created Zhou's Rolling Dragon Dao technique."

"This set of swordsmanship is simple and has no flower stand."

"Each move must be both offensive and defensive. When the knife comes out, one considers hitting the opponent's vital parts, and the other considers not being hurt by the opponent. It is similar to Shaolin's single sword and black tiger sword."

"Unfortunately"

Lao Zhou showed a hint of shame, "The sword is in my hand, and it is no longer as sharp and sharp as my grandfather's. The seventy-two sword skills are covered in dust, and the glory is gone."

He rubbed the feather duster as if wiping the blade of a knife, his eyes full of sorrow.

The more Zhao Rong listened, the more horrified he became.

I almost asked: "Is your grandfather Yuantu Gong?"

Old Zhou looked at Zhao Rong and suddenly asked, "Brother Rong, do you want to learn?"

"This isn't appropriate."

Zhao Rong declined and said: "The skills of the Rolling Dragon Sword are like thunder and make people intoxicated. But after all, it is learned from Brother Zhou's family. How can I pass it on to an outsider?"

"Zhou's Rolling Dragon Sword is indeed passed down from male to female, and is passed down from inside to outside."

“But there are exceptions to everything”

Old Zhou's eyes narrowed: "If little brother Rong doesn't worship me as his adoptive father, Zhou will make an exception and teach you the 72-way Rolling Dragon Sword Technique. This will not be considered a violation of the orders of our ancestors."

"..."

"Brother Zhou, you stay here, I'll go outside to clean up."

Zhao Rong carried the broom and left the warehouse without looking back.

I want to be a brother with you, but you want to join me as a senior.

Seeing his dissatisfied look when he went out, Lao Zhou laughed out loud.

Soon, Lao Zhou caught up with him again and handed Zhao Rong a thin book.

There are several traditional Chinese characters written on it: "雁行刀".

"I was joking just now, brother Rong, don't be offended."

"This is the sword manual collected by Zhou in his early years. Although it is difficult to reach the level of elegance, it is better than complete. Brother Rong is a swordsman, but all kinds of weapons have the same goal by different methods, so we can also use this as a reference."

Just as Zhao Rong was about to express his gratitude, Lao Zhou raised his hand to stop him. "I should thank Brother Rong."

"Over the years in the escort agency, I have long regarded this place as my home. Mr. Long, the escort chief, has always been kind to me. On that day, Zhou was negligent and the gangsters almost succeeded. I would rather die if I could not clear up my grievances in time."

After saying this, Lao Zhou clasped his fists towards Zhao Rong.

This is his explanation of benevolence and righteousness in this world as a man of the world and an ordinary warehouse manager.

Zhao Rong smiled, put away the sword happily, and returned the favor with a fist in his hand.

After that, Lao Zhou used a feather duster to make gestures and told him all about his sword skills.

Especially the tricks in "The Flying Geese" include the roc flying sideways, the wild birds jumping into the forest, the wild geese falling on the mountain, and the flowers hiding under the leaves.

He is not an expert, but he has been practicing with a short sword for decades.

Zhao Rong is considered a novice in the knowledge of weapon moves, and the three or two moves he has practiced are naturally not as good as what Lao Zhou has learned over the years. He is passed on by word of mouth, and he can't help but be fascinated by it.

During the meal, Pu Kui and Lu Gui each carried two roast chickens and ducks. Zhao Rong and Lao Zhou moved the table to the front of the warehouse, and the four of them sat at the same table.

"There is news from the dock. It is suspected that a thief bird pretending to be Lao Wang was seen. He crossed the pond in a boat and was accompanied by an accomplice."

"It's really a toad in the south of the Yangtze River. It's so difficult to deal with."

"Thief Bird's moves are ruthless. If he uses a long knife, I'm afraid more brothers will be injured."

"Fortunately, Mr. Long has the foresight to find a group of friends when he goes south this time, which makes everyone feel at ease."

"..."

Zhao Rong listened silently.

Crossing the pond by boat?
It seems that Lao Bao is not happy. This group of people is probably going to Shajiao Island, the lair of the Haisha Gang.

Do you want to tell Lu Shilai about this?

That's it.

If the whole story is told, it would be unjust to implicate Bao Datong in the first place.

He will bring disaster on himself, attract gangsters who attack and kill with lime, and put himself on the bright side.

Besides, it's just conjecture and there is no evidence, so what if the people in the escort agency believe it?
As long as the Hengshan masters don't move, they can't do anything against these people.

After all, Hengzhou Mansion is the place where the Hengshan Sect has been operating for a long time. Zhao Rong is still willing to believe that as one of the Five Sacred Sword Sects, the Hengshan Sect can deal with some conspiracies at home.

Therefore, Zhao Rong only analyzed the dangers of this matter with Pu Kui and reminded them to be careful in everything.

Lu Gui also mentioned the banquet hosted by the escort agency and the friends who were about to come to help him.

He got into a quarrel and pointed out the origins of some people, and Zhao Rong's confidence couldn't help but improve a lot.

Not long after, I heard another commotion coming from the door of the escort office, and the sound of horses neighing and hooves trampling on the ground.

"They're from the Red Wolf Gang."

"The vice president of the Chase Chamber of Commerce is also here."

"And the steward of Xuanhelou."

"..."

Almost all of them were from the Hengshan faction. They gathered together to discuss important matters at night.

Zhao Rong was watching at the entrance of the hospital and saw a middle-aged man in tattered clothes among the crowd.

"He's from the Beggar Clan."

"good."

Pu Kui whispered beside Zhao Rong: "Lu Guangcan, the leader of the Beggar Clan in Hengzhou Prefecture, has quite a say."

Zhao Rong thought to himself.

The Hengshan clan took this matter so seriously that they used their connections to invite everyone from the Beggar Clan, and their ability to control the situation was once again strengthened.

This is the benefit of the escort agency having the Hengshan sect as its backer. The Fuwei Escort Agency is far more famous in the world than Chang Rui.

However, after being targeted by the Qingcheng faction, they exterminated the entire family.

Zhao Rong had no way of knowing the specific content of the escort agency's meeting at night, but he felt more at ease and walked home much more briskly.

but
When Zhao Rong returned to Zhaojiawu, he had just walked to his small courtyard.

A chill instantly rushed up the back of Tianling Gai!
