Xiuxian, I can travel to another world

Chapter 11 Stay away
Shortly after the New Year.

Restaurant.

They chatted and laughed, and drank cups together.

A group of young talents from Leping County gathered together, listening to music, watching dances, drinking and singing, and having fun wildly.

"Brother Zhu."

Leng Xing's eyes were drunken as he held up his wine glass and gestured:

"We're all the same age, there's no need to be so reserved. Wouldn't it be a shame to let such fine wine go to waste?"

"belch……"

He burped and said:

"After the Lunar New Year every year, we will find a place to get together. Brother Zhu, don't forget to come."

Young people in Leping County have their own circle, and this time they called Zhu Ju to introduce him into the circle.

"Sure." Zhu Ju clasped his fists and bowed.
"But forget about the wine. It's not convenient to drink during the mourning period."

"Hmph!" Wan Jing, the young master of the Wan family, snorted coldly when he heard this and slammed the wine glass in his hand onto the table.
"People from the capital are different. They don't even drink our toasts. I'm afraid they don't take us seriously."

"Wan Jing, if you have nothing to say, just shut up." He Leshan frowned.

"Brother Zhu, you've already given us face by coming here. It's the same with tea instead of wine. I offer a toast to Brother Zhu."

"That's how it is, there's no need to be so particular!" Wan Jing said with dissatisfaction:
"They're just using mourning as an excuse. Let alone drinking some wine, some people get married right after their parents die..."

"Peng!"

Leng Xing overturned the dining table and glared angrily:

"Wan, you f*cking say one more word."

?

Zhu Ju looked confused.

"Ping Ruxue agreed to marry into the Leng family." He Leshan whispered in his ear:

"From being my fiancée to suddenly becoming my second aunt, Leng Xing has been feeling really pissed off lately."

Wan Jing also realized that he had said the wrong thing, but he had a strange personality and refused to apologize with his neck stiff.

"Looking for a beating!"

"Bang..."

"Don't do it! Stop them!"

Accompanied by a roar, the field immediately became chaotic, and everyone scrambled to separate the two.

"Wan Jing!"

Hua Wenhua, the oldest of the Hua family, could not help but angrily scold:
"Can't you control your stinky mouth? Sometimes even I can't help but want to slap you a few times."

"It's a rare occasion to get together..."

"what is that?"

A group of people were arguing when someone at the window screamed. They saw a fire rising from the county town gate at some point, and it was getting bigger and bigger and spreading all around.

"on fire?"

"Why is the city gate on fire?"

"..."

Everyone forgot about their previous argument for a moment, went to the window and looked into the distance, their expressions becoming more and more serious.

The shouts and noises coming from afar, everything is so familiar.

Like,

The night when the Heike clan was wiped out by the Black Tiger Gang!
Until a scream broke the silence.

"Bandits broke into the city!"

"Don't be afraid." He Leshan's face turned pale, but he still tried to remain calm.
"To suppress the bandits this time, the county government has deployed a large number of troops. The Sun and Zhou families have full guards. I heard there are also experts from the prefectural capital stationed there. If the Black Tiger Gang dares to break into the city at this time, they will only seek their own death."

As he spoke, his speech became faster and faster, and his expression became excited.

"That..." Wan Jing's eyes widened, his voice trembling, and he looked terrified as if he had seen a ghost.
"These people you are talking about are not in the city now."

"Hmm?" He Leshan suddenly turned sideways:

"If not in the city, where is it?"

"They left the city." Leng Xing gritted his teeth and said in a muffled voice:
"Yesterday, the county government and the Sun and Zhou families led various experts out of the city to suppress the bandits. They should still be on their way."

Suffer!
Zhu Ju's eyes narrowed.

Without the experts, wouldn't Leping County be like a lamb to be slaughtered in front of the Black Tiger Gang's bandits?

and……

The timing chosen by the Black Tiger Gang was so coincidental that it would be impossible if there was no insider help.

"The fire is burning towards the government office."

Hua Wenhua said in a trembling voice:

"The county magistrate and the legal advisor are both there. This is completely over."

"go!"

Leng Xing turned and ran downstairs:
"go home quickly!"

As children of wealthy families in the city, they have guards at home, so in the face of chaos, home is of course the safest place.

"Crash..."

Once someone started talking, the others reacted and rushed downstairs. By this time, the restaurant was already in chaos and no one noticed Zhu Ju who was unmoved.

Zhu Ju stood on the second floor with his hands behind his back, watching the flames rushing towards the county government office and the chaos spreading rapidly.

"It seems that the chaos will not end for a while, let's go back to Zhu Mansion..."

He shook his head slightly:
“It’s a little too late.”

Because they planned to have fun all night, Qin Bo was not with them on this trip and they came alone.

Now the Black Tiger Gang has broken into the county government office, set fires everywhere, and blocked the way back. If we go back now, we might run into bandits.

That being the case...

"Go to the pharmacy!"

The pharmacy has prepared medicine. After getting the medicine, go directly to Yuecheng in another world to hide for a while and come back after some time.

…………

"quick!"

Shopkeeper Wang hurriedly ordered people to block the outside and brought in wooden boards to reinforce it, but he was still a little worried.

"Liu You, go to the backyard and move the stone trough and stone blocks used for grinding medicine to block the door."

"Yes."

Liu You, sweating profusely, nodded in agreement.

After Liu You left, Manager Wang looked around and saw that there was no one around. He hurriedly took out several medicinal herbs from the pharmacy's collection, pushed open a hidden door and hid inside.

Only when everything was put in place did he breathe a sigh of relief, wipe the sweat from his forehead, and a look of joy appeared on his face.

"After the robbers have left and the pharmacy has been completely looted, these herbs can be included in the loss account."

"A few dozen taels of silver..."

'That's all I can say about a busy year.'

"Ouch!"

"who are you?"

"Peng!"

The clerk in the drug store rolled over and rolled in from the back door, knocking over the medicine cabinet and screaming in pain.

It turned out to be a few bandits who climbed over the wall and entered the backyard.

"Sir, spare my life!" Shopkeeper Wang was startled. He skillfully rolled over and knelt on the ground, clasping his hands together and raising them high.

"Hero, spare my life. I am just a doctor who looks after the shop. Please feel free to take anything you want."

"Don't worry, we brothers won't kill doctors and shorten their lives." A big man with a knife stepped in and shouted:
"Hand over your silver, big coins, and valuables. We promise not to harm your lives."

"Yes, yes." Shopkeeper Wang knelt on the ground and responded hurriedly, dragging his legs to open the cash cabinet:
"Hero, the money is all here, and the valuable herbs are in the medicine cabinet up there."

"Liu You!"

He called out loudly:
"Hurry up and help the heroes pack the herbs!"

"...Yes." Liu You covered his waist, struggled to get up, opened the medicine cabinet and took out the herbs inside.

"You are quite honest." The bandits seemed to have seen such cooperation for the first time and smiled at each other.

"He is very honest." At this time, a cold voice sounded:
"I think it was because of his honesty that the old man chose him to be the owner of the medicine shop."

"Who?"

"come out!"

The faces of several bandits changed drastically. They clenched their swords and looked in the direction of the sound.

"Master!"

"Master!"

"..."

After seeing who was coming, Manager Wang, Liu You and others also changed their expressions slightly. Why did the other party come here at this time?

"Here comes someone to die!"

Seeing that there was only one person, the bandit showed disdain and rushed forward with his knife:

"Go together!"

He was not stupid, and he knew very well that anyone traveling alone at this time must have some abilities, so he did not act rashly, but called on several people to join him.

"when……"

The long sword slashed on the palm that was emitting a faint black aura, making a sound of metal clashing.

Thirteen Horizontal Refining!

Hunyuan Iron Hand!

The thirteen horizontal trainings in the bone and muscle realm are comparable to the minor level of entering strength, and after burning the qi and blood, they are no weaker than the major level of entering strength.

The title of top hard skills is not undeserved. The strength of the skin, flesh, tendons and bones can withstand swords and knives, which may not be achieved even if one has achieved great success in entering the realm of strength.

But Zhu Ju can!
Iron Wire Fist!
He clenched his five fingers into a fist, and with a gust of evil wind around him, he lunged forward, and his fist burst out with such powerful force that it hit the bandit right in the chest.

"Click..."

"Peng!"

The bandit fell to the ground, dead.

Zhu Ju rushed into the crowd with an expressionless face. He did not dodge the flashing swords and knives, and attacked with fierce punches and palms.

"Peng!"

"what……"

In just a short moment, all the bandits fell to the ground, without a single one escaping.

Looking at the clothes full of tears, Zhu Juchang let out a breath and slowly relaxed his tense muscles.

"It seems that choosing hard skills is the right choice. If you are not familiar with the moves, you don't have to dodge. If you are surrounded and attacked without hard skills to protect yourself, you will inevitably get hurt."

After calming down, he looked at the people in the field:

"Shopkeeper Wang."

"...Here." Shopkeeper Wang trembled and nodded hurriedly:
"I'm here."

"Take out the herbs I need." Zhu Ju straightened his sleeves and looked directly at the other party.
"Don't tell me they were all taken away by bandits."

"No, no." Shopkeeper Wang smiled awkwardly.
"Master, you arrived just in time. The robbers were dealt with before they could even make a move. The things are all in the pharmacy."

"I……"

"I'll get it for you right away."

He opened the secret door and took out the medicinal herbs inside, and packed them up together with the silver and money stored in the pharmacy.

"Ah."

After weighing the package, Zhu Ju said:
"Manager Wang, from today on you are no longer a member of the Zhu Family Pharmacy. Liu You will be in charge here from now on."

"what!"

Shopkeeper Wang was stunned.

Before he could react, Zhu Ju had already stepped forward, grabbed the back of his collar and walked towards the courtyard wall.

"call……"

After climbing over the courtyard wall and quickly walking to the adjacent street, Zhu Ju threw the man onto the street.

"Manager Wang, you're on your own."

"Master!"

Looking at the bandits looting along the street not far away, Shopkeeper Wang's face turned pale:

"No!"

However,

His voice only attracted the attention of the bandits, and Zhu Ju's figure had already disappeared into the darkness without a trace.

*
*

"go!"

Leng Xing held a long knife in his hand, and with a flash of the knife, he knocked down two thugs who wanted to take advantage of the situation to rob.

Behind him, Ping Ruxue and Ping Jian, brother and sister, looked frightened and hurried to catch up.

"quick!"

"do not stop!"

The Leng family's Panshan Knife is known as the best in Leping County. Leng Xing, who has mastered the skill, can barely be considered a master in the county.

at least,

He is not afraid of ordinary bandits and thugs.

"All right."

Near the city wall, Leng Xing stopped and stuffed the package on his back into Ping Ruxue's arms.

"The city gates are now open. Once you leave the city, follow the official road directly to Hejian Prefecture. You can either look for your aunt or Zhu Ju's sister."

"Brother Leng."

Ping Ruxue's pretty face turned pale, and she looked directly at him and said:

"Come with us. If you break into my second uncle's house and rescue me, he won't let you go."

"..." Leng Xing's expression was complicated, and he shook his head with difficulty:

"My parents are here, I can't leave them."

"Come on!"

"You guys leave quickly!"

As he said this, he pushed the two people to the city gate, then turned around and ran towards the chaotic area.

Ping Ruxue and her brother watched Leng Xing leave, sighed helplessly, and left quickly.

An alley not far away.

Zhu Ju stroked his chin thoughtfully.

"No wonder Leng Xing asked me for a letter of introduction. I thought he wanted to go to the capital city to make his own living, but it turned out to be for the Ping brothers. It seems he has been planning to steal my wife for a long time."

Shaking his head, he took a step back, his figure disappearing into the darkness.
