Comprehensive Martial Arts: Relying on Pili Martial Arts to Achieve Dimensionality Reduction Attack

Chapter 171: In times of crisis, Shopkeeper Tong rescues the two girls, and Bai Zhantang, who is terrified, takes the opportunity to test Lu Ping

Qixia Town is not big, but it is definitely not small.

It took me half a day just to take a simple stroll along Luping Road.

Lu Ping did not stop for the whole afternoon, visiting the local landmarks, such as Qian's pawnshop, Ge's rice shop, Song's tofu stall, Liu's rouge shop, as well as the government office, Hanyuanzhai, Liuyunfang, Dengshi Street, Baima Academy...

Checked in once.

When we returned to Tongfu Inn, it was already dark.

Before entering the door, Lu Ping heard a discussion coming from inside the door.

Hiding at the door, I saw that everyone in the store was having a small meeting at the dining table.

"...This is what's going on. Now both the black and white people are coming to kill us. Shopkeeper, why don't we run away?"

The person who was speaking was Lao Bai.

Lu Ping thought to himself: Are the black and white gangs coming to kill us? At this point, the plot of the five big gangsters chasing Xiao Guo should have passed, right? Could it be that the plot was shifted and the killers were late?

Thinking of this, Lu Ping couldn't help but laugh at his own ridiculous idea.

There is a greater possibility of running into some trouble!

Lu Ping remained silent and continued listening.

Immediately after Lao Bai's voice, the voice of Shopkeeper Tong was heard.

"Where can you escape to?"

Lao Bai said with a sad face: "No matter where we go, it's better than staying here, right? If we stay any longer, I'm afraid we won't even survive."

As soon as this was said, everyone nodded.

"But it's not a good idea for us to just run away like this, right?"

Wushuang said weakly: "After all, they are two little girls. It's not good for us to just leave like this without even saying hello..."

Things harm their own kind, and the autumn song is also sad.

After learning that Murong Jiu and Zhang Jing were being hunted down by the underworld, Wushuang immediately thought of himself who was also alone and helpless, and couldn't help but want to help them.

Hey Hey hey……

Why did it suddenly become so sentimental?

Big Mouth grumbled unhappily: "Didn't you hear what Lao Bai said? They were the ones who invited the killers, so this should have been their trouble..."

He was the most fearful and timid person present. He was also the only son in the Li family for nine generations. He was almost thirty years old and had not even married yet. Naturally, he was unwilling to risk his life for two strange tenants.

"Boss, I'll go pack my luggage now..."

However, Wushuang's words seemed to have touched the conscience of Shopkeeper Tong. He paused in his action of inviting the scholar to get the account and land deed, and sat down again.

"No, I think Wushuang is right. We can't just leave like this!"

"You're not, are you, shopkeeper?!"

Lao Bai knew Manager Tong inside and out, and he knew her better than anyone else. Seeing her behavior, he immediately realized what she was trying to do and hurried back.

"This time is different from last time!"

"Last time we were here for Xiao Guo, and this time we're not familiar with the two people upstairs..."

Shopkeeper Tong interrupted hastily: "But she is also an innocent girl!"

In fact, she was also panicking, and even her body was shaking with fear, but she still forced herself to pretend to be calm.

He even interrupted Lao Bai and stopped him from continuing, fearing that if he said a few more words, his already weak determination would be shaken.

And all this is just because she is a kind and upright person.

"It's okay, it's okay..."

"They say that the first time is new, the second time is familiar. We already had the experience of fighting a gangster killer last time, so we will definitely be able to think of a way to avoid danger this time!"

Shopkeeper Tong kept hypnotizing himself, cheering himself and everyone present up.

Lao Bai had cold sweat on his forehead and decided to try again and explain the pros and cons in detail.

"At that time, there were only five underworld masters chasing Xiao Guo, but this time, not only the underworld, but also people from the white world will probably take action. By then, there will definitely be more than five people coming. How can we defeat them?"

"If you can't beat me, you have to fight!"

Shopkeeper Tong clenched his fists: "When the time comes... Zhan Tang, everything will depend on you..."

"Oh my god! What kind of sin have I committed... I might as well just run into a wall and die!"

Lao Bai was so desperate that he wanted to cry but had no tears. He actually grabbed the pillar next to him and slammed it hard.

Lu Ping finally came in.

"Old White, why are you practicing Iron Head Kung Fu so late at night?"

When everyone saw Lu Ping, they were all stunned and thought: Who is this person?
When Bai Zhantang heard the voice, he stopped what he was doing. When he turned around and saw Lu Ping, his heart skipped a beat: Oh no, I almost forgot that we have this guest upstairs.

and many more!

Bai Zhantang looked at Lu Ping in shock, and was horrified: When did this man come in? Why didn't I hear his footsteps?

Subconsciously, Bai Zhantang looked at Lu Ping's feet, but Lu Ping was not walking at the moment, so he naturally couldn't see anything.

Tong Xiangyu blinked and asked, "Zhan Tang, who is this little brother..."

"He is also a guest staying here today."

Bai Zhantang explained, and looked at Lu Ping with a forced smile: "Where did you go this afternoon, little brother?"

Seeing that the other party obviously had no intention of mentioning the previous topic to him, Lu Ping did not ask any more questions, but just smiled and said: "I didn't go anywhere, I just wandered around the town."

"Do you have any food in the kitchen? If so, please send some to my room. Money is not a problem!" He said as he threw the loose change in his hand.

Tong Xiangyu reached out and grabbed it reflexively, and after weighing it, she immediately swept away all her worries and sorrows: "Little brother, wait in the room for a moment, I'll ask the kitchen to make it for you!"

Lu Ping nodded and returned to his room alone.

When going upstairs, he deliberately increased the speed of his steps to deal with the gazes on his back.

Downstairs, Tong Xiangyu first asked Li Dazui to make some midnight snacks, and then she waved to Bai Zhantang.

Bai Zhantang had no choice but to come over and said, "Boss, what's wrong?"

"What do you think? Shouldn't we explain the situation in the store to this young man and ask him to leave the store early and avoid the limelight? After all, it's not good to involve him for no reason..."

Bai Zhantang raised his hand, calmly stopped Tong Xiangyu from speaking, and looked up at the second floor.

"What's wrong? You're being so cautious..."

After making sure that Lu Ping had entered the room and that there was no one in the corridor on the second floor, Bai Zhantang explained, "That little brother is a martial artist, and his martial arts skills are not low!"

"I even suspect that his Qinggong may be as good as mine!"

Tong Xiangyu was shocked: "Is this true?! You are the King of Thieves..."

This little brother looks younger than his younger brother Tong Shitou. Could he really have such high martial arts skills?
Although she was confused, Tong Xiangyu always believed in Bai Zhantang's experience in the martial arts world and the judgment he made based on it. Since he said that the young man was good at martial arts, it was most likely that he would be good.

"In that case, can we ask him for help?"

Bai Zhantang shook his head, expressing regret for Tong Xiangyu's unrealistic idea.

"First, they have no obligation to help us, let alone risk their lives to help two girls they don't know."

"Secondly, this little brother's origins are unknown, and we don't know whether he is from the white or black world. It's hard not to suspect his purpose when he appears here at this time..."

Tong Xiangyu suddenly realized and exclaimed in a low voice: "You mean, he is also here to hunt down those two girls?!"

"It's just a possibility, so I didn't explain the situation to him clearly just now."

"Otherwise, if he really came here for those two little girls and has bad intentions, wouldn't it be like sending a wolf into the sheepfold if we asked him for help?"

Tong Xiangyu nodded, secretly admiring Bai Zhantang's prudence.

"So what do we do now?"

Bai Zhantang bit his nails and said, "Well, I'll go test him and see if I can get anything out of him."

"Then be careful."

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

……

Lean less.

On the second floor, Lu Ping’s guest room.

dong dong dong...

"Sorry for the long wait, little brother. The midnight snack you requested is ready."

"Bring it in."

After getting the nod, Bai Zhantang walked in with a cautious smile, holding a rectangular plate.

Lu Ping stood up and took a look, and found that there was meat, vegetables, soup and rice on the plate. He immediately nodded with satisfaction and thought to himself: It seems that the money I spent just now was not wasted.

"It's quite a rich preparation... Wait! Isn't this what you guys had left over from tonight?"

"How can that be? This is all made fresh for you by our chef!"

"That's good."

Lu Ping was just about to start eating when he suddenly saw Bai Zhantang standing there, looking left and right at him, wanting to say something but stopping himself. He knew that he had a serious intention.

"Any thing else?"

Bai Zhantang was startled and said with a smile: "It just suddenly occurred to me that I don't know what to call you, little brother?"

"My name is Xiang Duxiu."

Lu Ping gave his alias without hesitation.

The only reason, of course, is that I just got the relationship with Buqunzhifang today.

Last name Xiang?

Bai Zhantang's face was filled with surprise, and he began to think about Lu Ping's identity: This surname is rare in the martial arts world! No, it should be said that I have never heard of it!
"I see that you seem to be good at martial arts, are you also a martial artist?"

Lu Ping smiled calmly: "They are just floating clouds."

"I wonder if you are here for business or just for sightseeing?"

Bai Zhantang pretended to chat and continued, "If you want to travel, do you need a guide? I'm familiar with this area. If you want to travel, I can recommend you a few good places."

"Thank you very much!"

In fact, there is really nothing fun to do near Qixia Town. It is smaller than Lu Ping’s hometown Taiping Town. If there is any place that is more prosperous and lively, it would be Shibalipu, which is farther away from here.

That's also where Lao Bai recommended it. Of course, there are also places like Zuojiazhuang, Balizhuang, Feilong Valley, etc., which are all outside Qixia Town but not far away.

After that, the two chatted about the local characteristics. Bai Zhantang also asked from time to time to test Lu Ping's background, but Lu Ping either pretended not to understand or directly changed the subject. In short, he didn't reveal a word. Seeing this, Bai Zhantang had no choice but to leave.

At midnight.

Lu Ping suddenly opened his eyes while sleeping.

Once again he sensed someone on the roof.
