Immortals Step into Heaven

It's okay, Brother Liu. After spending it all, won't there still be ten taels of silver in ten days? Zheng Yuan said with a smile.

"Well, since you're so thoughtful, I can't refuse you. How about this? I'll come see you this afternoon."

Okay, Brother Liu, it's settled. After Liu Yun left, Zheng Yuan was in a good mood. Brother Liu was also good to him and cared about him. It was only right for him to have a drink.

Zheng Yuan continued to practice the Tiger Fierce Sword Technique in the martial arts field. Although the Tiger Fierce Sword Technique was simple, it was very practical and could be considered a basic sword technique. Any advanced sword technique was evolved from the basic sword technique. Diligent practice would always pay off.

In the afternoon, Liu Yun came to Zheng Yuan's residence. Zheng Yuan brought Xiao Hei and Liu Yun to a restaurant called Cha Xiang Ji. They went to the second floor of the restaurant and found a seat by the window.

The two guests would like to eat something in the shop, an ordinary-looking waiter said enthusiastically.

Zheng Yuan looked at the waiter and smiled, "Give me ten pounds of braised beef, a pound of peanuts, a jar of good wine, and some cold dishes."

"Okay! Sir, please wait a moment! The food will be served to you right away," the waiter shouted.

"Zheng Laodi, can you finish all these?" Liu Yun asked in amazement.

It’s okay, Brother Liu. If you can’t finish it, don’t you still have Xiao Hei?

Xiao Hei lay on the table and listened to Zheng Yuan's words, nodding his head repeatedly to show his agreement as if he was afraid that someone would forget him.

Liu Yun looked at Xiao Hei and said, "You little gangster are very smart."

In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, all the food and wine were served. Zheng Yuan asked the waiter for an extra pair of bowls, gave Xiao Hei some beef and poured him some wine. He felt very comfortable while drinking wine, eating beef and peanuts, and watching people coming and going downstairs!

After chatting with Brother Liu, I learned that he was also a miserable man. His wife and daughter were killed by bandits. Brother Liu gritted his teeth whenever he talked about bandits!

Zheng Yuan also sighed slightly. How can you know the pain of others if you have not experienced their suffering?

Feeling that Brother Liu was in a bad mood, he asked the waiter to add another jar of wine and started to toast Brother Liu, one bowl after another.

Brother Liu couldn't bear Zheng Yuan's enthusiasm for toasting and got drunk!

Xiao Hei also drank so much that his head was shaking and his legs were trembling!

Looking at the drunk man and dog, Zheng Yuan called the waiter to settle the bill. The one or two taels of silver were almost spent, but Zheng Yuan didn't feel sorry. He took the drunk man and dog back to Huwei Escort Agency in the night.

Zheng Yuan has been practicing at the Huwei Escort Agency these days. Except for the few times when Brother Liu came to chat with Zheng Yuan, Zheng Yuan spent the rest of the time practicing his swordsmanship. He has also mastered the Hulie swordsmanship.

After packing up his things, Zheng Yuan took a piece of cloth to wrap up the two sets of clothes and a book of swordsmanship, put them on his back, took the sword, and took Xiao Hei to the martial arts field to gather.

Although Zheng Yuan has a storage bag, he doesn't want them to discover his secret. After all, the magic power in the body of a person in the fourth level of Qi Refining Stage is limited, and he is not invincible!

It's about the same as a first-rate master, and Zheng Yuan's only means of attack is the Fiery Sword Technique.

If you underestimate these warriors, you might end up in trouble! It's best to adapt to local customs!

When Zheng Yuan arrived at the martial arts field, he found that all 29 warriors were already there. After a few days of getting to know them, Zheng Yuan realized that most of them were third-rate masters.

There are also a few who are not up to par, and only three escort leaders are second-rate masters.

Zheng Yuan also joined the team and waited for the arrival of the escort leader. After a cup of tea, three escort leaders arrived.

First, ten taels of silver were distributed, and then the escort leader took everyone to the horse farm. Everyone chose a horse. After all, how could they travel such a long distance without riding a horse?

Zheng Yuan chose a dark horse because Xiao Hei is black, so he loves the dark horse as well!

Zheng Yuan was a little surprised to see the three escort leaders also selecting horses! If these three were all going, wouldn't that mean the entire escort agency was mobilized? It looked like this wasn't a simple matter!

It was difficult to put Xiao Hei away while riding a horse, so he had to carry him on his back. Fortunately, he had a bag with him, otherwise he wouldn't know where to put Xiao Hei. After a while, Zheng Yuan followed everyone on horseback out of the city.

Zheng Yuan was carrying Xiao Hei on his back, attracting everyone's attention. Passersby were pointing and talking. Xiao Hei was still lying on Zheng Yuan's back, looking around, as if showing off something.

Zheng Yuan was also a little embarrassed and blushed, thinking that he had never even carried Ling'er on his back, but he was carrying a dog on his back!

When we got out of the city gate, we found a convoy waiting for us. There were two horse-drawn carriages and five more carriages behind them, all of which were carrying goods.

There were seven carriages in total and about twenty people on the other side, all of whom seemed to be good fighters. Chief Escort Li stepped forward to negotiate with them.

An old man got off one of the carriages. He was dressed in gorgeous clothes and looked quite dignified. Chief Escort Li talked to him about something. After the two men finished their negotiation, the two teams reunited.

Zheng Yuan followed Brother Liu on horseback, walking on the left side of the two middle carriages as a guard. Not long after, a young man riding a brown horse and wearing brocade clothes came to Zheng Yuan, looked at Zheng Yuan and said, "Why are you bringing a dog with you?"

He then scolded, "Do you think this is a game?"

Zheng Yuan felt a little unhappy after hearing this, but still said with a smile, "This young master Xiao Hei has been dependent on me since childhood. If I leave him behind, I'm afraid he will not be able to survive. I hope you will forgive me. I will be very grateful."

The man in blue said fiercely, "You are taking the money but not doing the job."

At this moment, Zheng Yuan really wanted to take a knife and chop him with it! Is it necessary to be so serious about such a small matter?

At the same time, a corner of the curtain of the carriage next to him was slightly lifted, and a woman's crisp and sweet voice came out.

Judging from his voice, he is probably only seventeen or eighteen years old. Li Qi must not be rude and should leave!

Li Qi's expression instantly turned ugly when he heard that. He clasped his fists respectfully towards the carriage and said, "Yes, Miss." He turned around and glared at Zheng Yuan again, then left with a flick of his sleeves.

"Brother Zheng, are you okay?" Liu Yun asked with concern.

Zheng Yuan said helplessly, "I'm fine, thank you for your concern, Brother Liu!" Liu Yun nodded and continued on his way without saying anything more.

Zheng Yuan adjusted his mood and said to the carriage, "Thank you very much for your kind words just now, Miss. I, Zheng Yuan, am very grateful!"

Li Qi was rude to you just now. I apologize to you on his behalf! A woman’s voice came from the carriage.

Zheng Yuan was a little speechless. It wasn't your fault, so why are you apologizing to me? How should I respond?

Not accepting her apology seems a bit petty. Accepting her apology is because of her status. She is giving you face.

I sighed in my heart, as expected, rich and powerful people always speak nicely!

Miss, you are so kind. The journey is long, so please take care of me along the way. I will always remember your kindness!

After a brief pause, a voice came from the carriage, "Sir, you're polite."

Thank you very much, Miss. No sound came from the carriage. Zheng Yuan laughed in his heart. If you play this trick on me, I will join you even if I can't beat you.

Zheng Yuan rode his horse forward and approached Liu Yun.

But the master and servant in the carriage were whispering to each other, "Young lady, this guy is too shameless, he's really trying to make connections!" The girl said angrily, "Don't you even look at who you are?"
