Start from Wusheng

Chapter 203: Ao Quan is trying to win over a son-in-law

A carriage broke through the cold wind and rushed into the plain outside Gongliang City.

The horse was panting, and the hot air coming out of its nose was like steaming white mist, followed by beads of sweat as big as soybeans dripping onto the ground.

"Tie Niu, don't tire the horse out. Stop and feed it some soybeans and water."

Tie Niu silently stopped the packhorse, took out a handful of soybeans and stuffed them into the horse's mouth, then scooped a full spoonful of water from the wooden barrel and handed it to him.

The packhorse drank the water greedily, guzzling it happily.

Zhou You jumped off the carriage, pulled out a broken arrow embedded in the wooden board and threw it to the ground.

The journey back to the city from my hometown felt like a lifetime ago compared to a few months ago.

Robbers were everywhere, demanding food and money, and even wanted to kill their horses.

This business was also turbulent in the chaotic times. There were regular soldiers wearing leather armor and holding knives, as well as part-time bandits holding farm tools, and their quality varied.

Zhou You asked Tie Niu to protect his parents, while he went out to drive them away, wave after wave, endlessly.

In short, the journey back became very slow and we almost ran out of food.

There was even a crisis, and the panel triggered the trial mission: escape.

This mission is a group battle level, with the battlefield perspective turned on, and there are thousands of densely packed red dots.

Zhou You felt his scalp tingling, so he turned around and left, asking Tie Niu to take a detour to avoid him.

The scale of this is no longer a small fight, but the rhythm of refugees forming an army, which is more than enough to attack the city.

Among these red dots, there are some particularly bright and large red dots, which are highlighted as martial arts masters.

Could it be another bandit group on the scale of Moyun Village?
Zhou You didn't even care about the trial mission and narrowly avoided this large group of enemies.

I didn't breathe a sigh of relief until all the red dots on the panel disappeared.

When he saw Gong Liangcheng again, he felt that it was quite difficult. If it were anyone else, they would have died on the road long ago.

The packhorse ate beans and drank water, regaining some of its strength.

Zhou You walked on the ground and let the iron ox pull the carriage slowly into the city. His parents sat in the carriage and continued to rest.

The city gate is tall and deep. Every time you walk inside, the sound of wind disappears and the light becomes dim.

The sound of horse hooves is particularly obvious!
Zhou You suddenly stopped and said, "Tie Niu, wait here now, I'll go up and be back soon."

At the city gate right in front, standing there was a burly old man, it was... Bao Tiefeng.

Bao Tiefeng, the Mastiff Fist Master, blocked him at the city gate for no reason. He must have some purpose!
Something might happen today.

Tie Niu took his hint and led the carriage to the exit. If anything went wrong the carriage would gallop away.

"Master Bao is waiting for someone?"

Bao Tiefeng admitted directly, "Yes, I am waiting for you, Flying Tiger Zhouyou."

He waved his hand, and a wild dog curled up in the corner not far away moved, stood up, and revealed its true appearance.

It turned out to be a living person covered in dog skin, lying on the ground, looking vivid and lifelike. Anyone who saw it would think it was just an ordinary wild dog.

Following Bao Tiefeng's order, the man in dog skin saluted him respectfully, turned around and left.

"This is the dog-stealing technique of my Ao Quan sect. I have made him wait for nearly 100 days to find out when you will return."

100 days means we started waiting three months ago.

Zhou You got straight to the point. "Zhou You is a disciple of Jianxiong Martial Arts School. Master Bao leads the Ao Quan School. You and I have no dealings with each other. May I ask if there is anything I can do for you?"

"Zhou You, do you know that you are in big trouble?"

Bao Tiefeng's first words were alarmist and meant to scare people. Zhou You was not surprised, but breathed a sigh of relief. It was just an empty threat, and it seemed there was no danger.

"Let me tell you something. After you left Gongliang City, Wang Lao Hu took Lu Jianqing to Dayin Mountain."

"It doesn't matter if you don't know Dayin Mountain. I tell you, Wang Lao Hu came from Dayin Mountain."

"He brought Lu Jianqing with him and asked for help from old friends, hoping to introduce Lu Jianqing back to the sect."

"Dayin Mountain is a sect ruled by a powerful warrior. It has a promising future and is far more promising than any martial arts school."

Bao Tiefeng asked Zhou You, "If Lu Jianqing becomes stronger in the future, how will you deal with his revenge?"

As everyone knows, Zhou You killed Zhong Shaoying and formed an irreconcilable feud with Lu Jianqing.

Wang Jianxiong spared no effort and used his connections to pave the way for Lu Jianqing, allowing him to have a higher platform for development.

Such a biased behavior, to a certain extent, is tantamount to giving up on Zhou You and watching him die coldly.

"Zhou You, it's not hard to guess what Wang Lao Hu is thinking. You are the whetstone he left for Lu Jianqing."

Bao Tiefeng said lightly, "The tiger is the king, and there is only one king. He has already chosen Lu Jianqing. No matter how outstanding you are, you are not in his eyes."

Zhou You was silent for a while, then said, "Master Bao, you are thoughtful. I can get the news when I return to the city. Why did you come here to tell me?"

"Nothing else, just love for talent."

Bao Tiefeng took out a house deed from his sleeve and said, "I have bought the house your family rented and I'm giving it to you."

"Wang Lao Hu doesn't know how to cherish you, but I know you are a rare talent. Come and become my disciple!"

"I will teach you all my life's martial arts. The future of Mastiff Fist may not be inferior to Jade Tiger Kung Fu."

"If you don't trust me, I can marry my daughter to you and we can become father-in-law and son-in-law, just like Wang Lao Hu and Lu Jianqing."

When Zhou You heard this, he suddenly asked, "How many daughters does Master Bao have?"

"One, her husband died not long ago, and she is a widow at home."

What a guy! In order to win over Zhou You, he simply killed his son-in-law and married his daughter again.

Not only did he give away real estate but he also married off his daughter, which showed his sincerity.

Zhou You felt that the rebellious spirit in his brain was ready to move. It was not a problem if he didn't know the goods, but he was afraid of comparing the goods. He should let his master take a look.

He sighed, "Master Bao, you are not only good at boxing, but also very sharp in doing things. I admire you."

Bao Tiefeng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "What do you think?"

"I'm sorry, changing masters is a taboo. Master Bao's conditions are good, but I can't live in disgrace and be criticized by everyone for the rest of my life. Besides, being your son-in-law is too risky. I still want to live a few more years."

Zhou You clasped his fists and said sincerely.

So what if they really fell out? He killed two martial artists in succession to build up enough confidence.

Not to mention Bao Tiefeng, he is not even afraid of his master Wang Lao Hu!
Bao Tiefeng stared into his eyes for a long time and said, "Okay, I like loyal disciples the most, please think about it again."

As soon as he finished speaking, he shook the house deed, and the thin piece of paper instantly became like a steel plate, rotating and inserting into the ground under Zhou You's feet.

"Take this small profit!"

After saying this, he turned and left, and there was no trace of the city gate anymore.

Zhou You looked at the house deed worth thousands of gold. It was a hot potato and he was in a dilemma whether to accept it or not.

The news that Bao Tiefeng blocked him at the city gate would reach Wang Laohu's ears the next day. This house deed was undoubtedly the ironclad evidence of their private communication.

This move was ruthless and openly cruel, forcing Zhou You into a corner.
