Chapter 136: Chief Escort
During the time when Li Yi killed Jin Zhihuan, the head of the Jin family, Master Zhao Ge, with Shou Hou and Zhao Qian, began to visit various forces in the city one by one according to the information they had forced out. His purpose was simple, which was to rescue those disciples who were still alive.
These disciples are the core disciples of the Zhao family martial arts school. They are loyal and useful people. Zhao Ge would never abandon them.
The first stop, Zhao Ge came to the Jin family's dungeon. The reason for coming here was that there had been sounds of fighting coming from the Jin family's martial arts gym, so the defense here must be empty. At most, there were only one or two blood-training warriors guarding it. They would not be a threat to him. After all, even if he was seriously injured and had not recovered, it would be easy for him to kill a few blood-training warriors.
Accompanied by several screams echoing.
The dungeon was breached in an instant. Zhao Ge killed people with his punches and no one could stop him. Even some disciples of the Jin family were so scared that they quickly retreated just by seeing his appearance.
"Dad, Brother Yi is okay, right? Should I go and give him some support with my sniper rifle? After all, Brother Yi is facing a master who has practiced acupuncture."
At this moment, Zhao Qian followed her master and Skinny Monkey into the dungeon, but she was concerned about the safety of Li Yi outside.
"No need. Meng De is very strong. With my guidance, there will be no problem for him to kill the old man Jin Zhihuan. Moreover, Meng De also intends to use the blood of the martial artists to hone his boxing skills. If he brings firearms with him and has reliance and hope in his heart, then the training will not be effective." Zhao Ge said.
"Besides, this firearm is a trump card. It cannot be revealed until the critical moment. Who knows how many enemies we have this time? We have to keep some backup. My daughter, you have to hide the firearm in your hand. Now there are so many eyes staring at us. Once they know that this is a sharp weapon that can kill a master of training, who would not want it? If the court covets it, it will be troublesome."
"Dad, I understand." Zhao Qian nodded.
The sniper rifle in her hand is a life-saving trump card, but it may also become a death warrant for everyone else. If it attracts warriors from the upper three realms, they will be doomed.
Therefore, Zhao Ge is very cautious about sniper rifles and will never use them unless absolutely necessary.
soon.
Several people came to the dungeon and found more than ten disciples of the Zhao family martial arts school who were imprisoned in the dungeon. Their condition was slightly better than those outside the city, but they were also tortured to a bloody mess. The only thing to be thankful for was that their tendons were not cut off and their limbs were still intact. If they were well recuperated, they could become the pillars of the martial arts school in the future.
"Master, is it Master who is here? It's really Master, I am not seeing things."
"Great, Master, you're here to save us."
"Master."
When these disciples saw Zhao Ge coming, they immediately became excited and a gleam of hope appeared in their eyes.
"Good, they are all still alive, good, you are all great, you don't have to worry anymore, Master is here, everything will be fine." Zhao Ge smiled at this moment, and he felt a little comforted when he saw that these people were fine.
"Skinny monkey, open the door and rescue these brothers and sisters of yours."
"Okay, Master." The skinny monkey took action immediately without waiting for the master to finish his words. He used the sword at his waist to chop open the prison door and unlock the shackles.
In less than a moment, all the dozen or so disciples of Zhao's Martial Arts School were rescued.
"Master has to go rescue other people now and can't stay here to take care of you. You just have to bear with it for a while. After today's matter is over, I will take you back to the martial arts hall." Zhao Ge said at this moment. He knew that time was pressing and he couldn't waste too much time here.
"Master, be careful of the masters from the Jin Family Martial Arts School and the Han Family Martial Arts School. They have been looking for your whereabouts." A disciple reminded hurriedly.
The skinny monkey at the side chuckled, "Don't worry, after today there will be no Jin Family Martial Arts School or Han Family Martial Arts School in Sanyang City. Master brought our eldest brother with him this time. He is very powerful and is avenging us. All those enemies who have offended us will die."
"Big Brother? Skinny Monkey, what's going on? Please explain in detail." One of the disciples asked
"I can't continue talking with you now. I will tell you in detail later. My fellow brothers and sisters, please take care of yourselves first. You will know everything tomorrow." said the skinny monkey.
soon.
He left the dungeon with Zhao Ge and Zhao Qian.
After rescuing these disciples, Zhao Ge's mood was obviously much better. He then rode away again: "Let's go to the Weiwu Escort Agency. I have some friendship with the chief escort of the Weiwu Escort Agency. I want to see what will happen to the disciples of our Zhao's Martial Arts School if they fall into his hands. If that guy takes advantage of the situation, don't blame me for being merciless and killing him myself."
The three men rode their horses at full speed and headed straight for the Weiwu Escort Agency.
Soon, after crossing a few streets.
A steady and imposing storefront appeared before them, with a plaque hanging on it, on which were written large gold-painted characters: Mighty Escort Agency.
"The owner of the Zhao family martial arts school, Zhao Ge, has come to pay a visit to the chief escort of the Weiwu Escort Agency. Hu Weiyuan, please come out and meet him." As soon as he reined in his horse, Zhao Ge roared with all his might. The sound was like a tiger's roar, and it seemed to be able to pierce gold and split stone. It instantly echoed over the entire escort agency.
All the disciples of the Mighty Escort Agency heard this long roar, and many of them were so frightened that their faces changed drastically.
However, such a big event suddenly happened in Sanyang City today. The Weiwu Escort Agency has more or less received some news at this moment. After all, the whole city has been paying attention to the destruction of Zhao's Martial Arts School recently, and is also paying attention to whether Zhao's Martial Arts School can regroup and avenge the Blood Pool.
After all, Zhao Ge, the owner of the Lianqiao Hall, is not dead, and the flag is still there, so there may be a chance for him to turn things around.
At this moment, Zhao Ge was also using courtesy before force. He didn't want to ruin the previous friendship. After all, the words of his enemies were not credible. What if the people from the Weiwu Escort Agency didn't take advantage of his misfortune? Wouldn't it be wrong for him to go to their door so recklessly?
After all, he is a sophisticated person who does things steadily and not rashly.
As his long roar echoed, about ten breaths later, the door of the Weiwu Escort Agency slowly opened.
At this moment, the chief escort Hu Weiyuan and a group of escorts in the escort agency came out quickly. It was obvious that they were well prepared and expected that Zhao Ge would come to visit them after he showed up.
"Hu Weiyuan greets Master Zhao." A middle-aged man in his early thirties, with a sturdy build and wearing tight clothes, saluted with his fists.
Zhao Ge looked at Hu Weiyuan and sensed a different aura from him. His expression changed slightly. "Your Qi and blood are restrained? This is a sign of blood training entering the acupoints. Have you broken through to the acupoint training realm?"
Hu Weiyuan smiled and said, "Sanyang City is experiencing a major change, and my Weiwu Escort Agency is inevitably affected. So I decided to take a gamble. I'm lucky this time and I succeeded. However, in front of a well-known master like Master Zhao, I am a newcomer who has just entered the realm of cultivation. It's not worth mentioning."
"Those enemies know that I have a good relationship with your Weiwu Escort Agency. As the chief escort, you are afraid of being liquidated, so you really have courage to break through the training acupoints under pressure." Zhao Ge's eyes flickered, and he immediately guessed the cause and effect, and then immediately said: "Before entering the city, my closed disciple killed a blood-training warrior from the Jin family. I learned from him that many disciples of my Zhao's martial arts school fell into the hands of the Weiwu Escort Agency. I want to know whether this is true or not?"
The last disciple killed the Jin family's blood-training warrior?
This one sentence revealed key information that made Hu Weiyuan stunned for a moment, and then he immediately started to associate things with it.
When did Zhao Ge have a closed disciple? How come I didn't know?
Moreover, this last disciple can kill a blood-training warrior as soon as he shows up, so his strength is extraordinary. In addition, Zhao Ge has returned to Sanyang City for revenge this time. He would not be able to do it by himself. After all, everyone knows that Zhao Ge's soul is injured, his strength has been greatly reduced, and he may not even be able to take out his heart blood.
In such a broken state, let alone revenge, he would definitely be targeted by the other several masters and killed immediately the moment he returned to Sanyang City.
But Zhao Ge came here in such a grand manner, which was so unusual. So there was only one possibility: he had someone to rely on, and the person he relied on was most likely his last disciple.
"Could it be that the strength of the last disciple he mentioned has already reached the level of practicing the acupoints?" Suddenly, an astonishing guess appeared in Hu Yuanwei's mind.
If this is true, it would be truly incredible.
A dual training technique.
Only with such strength is one qualified to return to Sanyang City for revenge, otherwise Sanyang City will be the gate of hell for Zhao Ge and others.
Thinking of this, Hu Yuanwei immediately said, "Master Zhao, there are indeed a dozen of your disciples visiting my escort agency, but I have not hurt any of your disciples. They have been treated with courtesy these past few days. Unfortunately, I am not strong enough and I am powerless. I cannot help Master Zhao take care of more disciples during your absence. A dozen is already the limit of my Weiwu Escort Agency."
After saying that, he sighed helplessly.
"Oh, is that really the case?" Zhao Ge was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Hu Yuanwei did not add insult to injury, but instead extended a helping hand in times of crisis.
"If Master Zhao doesn't believe it, you will know it at a glance." Hu Yuanwei immediately stretched out his hand to signal.
But Zhao Ge narrowed his eyes and rode on his horse without making any movement.
Hu Yuanwei also reacted immediately. He patted his head and said with a smile, "Sorry, sorry, I was careless. Someone, go and invite the disciples of Zhao's martial arts hall out. Tell them that Master Zhao is back. Ask them to come out and gather together."
After receiving the order, an escort immediately ran into the escort agency.
After a while, a series of footsteps were heard coming quickly towards this side.
Zhao Ge looked up and really saw more than a dozen core disciples of the martial arts school appearing in front of him safe and sound. He was immediately delighted, and at the same time he understood that Hu Yuanwei, the chief escort, really came to his aid and was not being hypocritical.
"Master." These disciples were immediately surprised when they saw Zhao Ge.
Zhao Ge nodded and immediately shouted, "Yuan Tianfei, you are the oldest among all the disciples. If you still think of me as your master, you should obey my orders and take your fellow disciples to the dungeon of the Jin Family Martial Arts School. Gather the rest of the disciples and then move into the Jin Family Martial Arts School to guard the inner storehouse, pharmacy, and armory."
"Yes, Master, but..." A young warrior in his twenties immediately saluted with his fists, but then hesitated.
"Don't worry. The head martial artist of the Jin family and that old dog Jin Zhihuan have been killed by your senior brother. Now the Jin family is leaderless and probably in chaos. If you, a dozen people, raise the flag of the Zhao family martial arts school, the remnants of the Jin family martial arts school will surely scatter like beasts and birds and dare not do anything to you."
Zhao Ge said immediately.
When he left earlier, he had already heard Li Yi's thunderous punch. Now that he thought about it, things on his side had been almost dealt with, so it was a good time to send people to take over.
"Yes, Master." Yuan Tianfei was overjoyed when he heard that.
No one expected that both the master and the owner of the Jin family martial arts school had died. This was truly an earth-shattering event.
"What are you still standing here for? Move immediately." Zhao Ge said.
Upon hearing this, all the disciples clasped their fists and responded.
At this moment Hu Yuanwei immediately stepped forward and said, "I have some good horses in my escort agency, which are just right for giving to Master Zhao to make it easier for his disciples to do things. Go and lead the horses out quickly, don't hesitate." Immediately, several escorts quickly ran back to the escort agency and went to lead the horses.
Zhao Ge narrowed his eyes slightly at this moment: "Captain Escort, you have seen the situation. A real dragon has emerged from my Zhao's martial arts school. Now I have returned to Sanyang City not only to seek revenge, but also to seize the school and establish a flag. The Jin family martial arts school is finished, and the only one left is the Han family martial arts school. After that, my Zhao family martial arts school will settle accounts with the three major districts and the Caoyun Wharf one by one."
Hu Yuanwei's expression was startled, and he thought to himself, as expected.
Zhao Ge showed up this time not only to seek revenge, but also to wipe out these forces and take over the entire Sanyang City. He has great ambitions.
"Chief Escort, you have done a favor to our Zhao's Martial Arts School. Why don't you join forces with me today? After the success, I, Zhao Ge, swear that the canal wharf and the pharmacy will belong to you, and my Zhao's Martial Arts School will not get a single cent," Zhao Ge opened his mouth and gave a big gift.
You have to know that the canal transport and pharmacies make a lot of money every day.
But at this moment, Zhao Ge needed allies, so he made a big promise and promised all kinds of benefits. After all, they were too weak and it would be difficult to accomplish anything great even if they gathered all the disciples together.
"Master Zhao, are you so confident?" Hu Yuanwei's eyes moved slightly, and he was obviously weighing whether to take the plunge into this muddy water.
After all, this is a time of great change, and a wrong move could bring disaster to the entire family.
"Haha."
Zhao Ge laughed loudly: "My last disciple is extremely brave and has strong bones and muscles. He has already killed that old dog Jin Zhihuan. If you and I join forces, plus my last disciple, we will have three masters of Qi training. Do you think we can't accomplish this?"
Hu Yuanwei's hands moved slightly when he heard this, and he felt inexplicably excited.
If this is true, we can really take over Sanyang City and wipe out all those old-school forces.
By then, Zhao's martial arts school would be the only one in the market, and he would be able to successfully take over the two businesses of water transport and medicine. Add in the escort business, and maybe he could even train one or two masters in the future.
The Weiwu Escort Agency has been passed down for three generations, and the family fortune it has accumulated is worth a desperate effort today.
"If I refuse Master Zhao's kindness, wouldn't I be ungrateful? So, more than a hundred escorts from my Mighty Escort Agency will accompany Master Zhao's disciples to the Jin Family Martial Arts School. If we can successfully take down the Jin Family Martial Arts School, then from now on, my Mighty Escort Agency will follow Master Zhao's lead." Hu Yuanwei said.
Although he was tempted, he was not blinded by the benefits. He wanted to see whether the old man Jin Zhihuan was really killed by the eldest senior brother of Zhao's martial arts school.
If it is true, then Hu Yuanwei is willing to take a gamble by betting on the Weiwu Escort Agency.
If he remains neutral at this time, no matter who is the winner in the future, he will be suppressed, which is really not worth it.
"Okay, Yuan Tianfei, you will accompany the chief escort to the Jin family martial arts gym later." Zhao Ge ordered.
"Yes, Master."
Yuan Tianfei was delighted again. If everything went well, he would have another master in martial arts training. The Zhao family martial arts school would really rise again.
Zhao Ge said again: "Captain Escort, when you are done, please come and help me take over the Han family martial arts school. My disciple has probably already knocked on the door. When you arrive, the matter will be almost over. I still have to go to the three major workshops to rescue the other martial arts school disciples, so I will leave you here."
After saying that, he bowed, turned his horse's head, and galloped away in one direction.
"I wish all of you brothers a safe journey." The skinny monkey said loudly, and then rode away on his horse.
Zhao Qian didn't say anything, just clasped her fists and bowed to everyone, then followed.
Yuan Tianfei watched his master leave, his face still showing excitement. He growled, "Brothers, get ready. We will go rescue the others and then move into the Jin Family Martial Arts School."
Everyone shouted in unison, equally excited.
The repression of many days is released today. How can I not be happy about the pleasure of revenge?
The chief escort Hu Weiyuan, who was standing nearby, did not hesitate at this moment. He immediately gathered his men, prepared fast horses, and headed straight for the Jin family escort agency.
Only a moment passed.
Hundreds of people rode their horses and rushed out.
soon.
The group had already arrived at the street in front of the Jin family martial arts school.
From a distance, the street was in chaos, with several corpses lying somewhere. The door of the Jin family martial arts gym was half-shattered by someone. It seemed that a fierce battle had taken place here just before, and someone came all the way from the south and directly broke into the Jin family martial arts gym.
"Captain Escort, I need to go to the Jin family dungeon. I'll trouble you with the things here."
When Yuan Tianfei saw this scene, he knew that what his master said was true. The Jin family martial arts school was indeed doomed.
But compared to taking over the martial arts school, rescuing fellow brothers is more important.
"Okay, I will prepare the elixir from the Jin family martial arts school for you. I believe your disciples will need it later." Hu Weiyuan nodded, then continued on his horse.
Yuan Dafei thanked them and left with the others through another street.
The further Hu Weiyuan walked, the more frightened he became.
I don't know what kind of divine power was used to smash the corpse on the ground, and it splattered blood mist all over the wall.
It is not difficult to judge from the situation at the scene that several bone-training experts died in one encounter.
Later, when he arrived at the gate of the Jin family martial arts gym, he saw several familiar corpses.
"Captain of the escorts, look, it's Jin Dadao, the master of the Jin family martial arts school. He was also killed." An escort said hurriedly, pointing at a headless corpse.
"It is indeed the body of Jin Dadao. It seems that he didn't even have time to draw his sword before he died. What a fierce punch. The head exploded with one punch. The attack was fast, accurate and ruthless. Let's go in and take a look." Hu Yuanwei was secretly shocked. He was definitely not a match for Jin Dadao before he broke through the training stage.
Unexpectedly, such a big shot died like this, as if he was treated as a soldier and was easily eliminated by someone.
A group of people rushed into the Jin family martial arts hall on horseback. At this moment, most of the people in the hall had already fled away. Only a small number of maids, servants, and servants were desperately trying to collect some money, hoping to take advantage of the situation to rob.
"Send some people to control the martial arts hall and don't let anyone cause any chaos." Hu Yuanwei shouted.
Immediately, dozens of bodyguards spread out in groups, subdued all the rioters in the martial arts hall, and then went straight to the important places such as the medicine storehouse, armory, etc. These places are the assets of a martial arts hall and cannot be lost.
After giving the order, Hu Yuanwei immediately dismounted from his horse and strode towards the front yard.
soon.
He came to a headless corpse.
The corpse was skinny and shriveled, as if all the energy and blood in the body had been drained out, which looked a bit weird.
"It is indeed Jin Zhihuan's body."
Hu Yuanwei was silent for a moment, then he squatted down and touched the heart of the corpse. He saw that the heart was shriveled and sunken. His face was grim. “Jin Zhihuan had used up his heart blood before he died. The old man used that heart blood to restore his strength to its peak. He fought with others to the limit, and his blood and energy were almost exhausted. In the end, he was killed on the spot.”
"Who is that senior brother of Zhao Ge's? He is so brave."
He stood up again and looked around for signs of fighting.
The ground was in a mess, with knife marks everywhere and fist power scattered everywhere.
Just standing in the middle of the battle, one can imagine how brutal the fight was.
"I am not as good as the senior brother from Zhao's martial arts school."
After a brief moment of silence, Hu Yuanwei felt a sense of inexplicable fear in his heart.
If such a punch were to hit me, I would not be able to withstand it for more than ten breaths.
Although Jin Zhihuan, the Tingfeng Blade, is old, but when he recovers to his peak, he is a top-notch master in Sanyang City. The sword in his hand has also tasted the blood of martial artists who have practiced martial arts. However, such a person was beaten to death alive, so you can imagine how ferocious the opponent is.
"So now the senior brother has gone to settle accounts with the Han family? The next person to die is Han Tianbao."
Hu Yuanwei felt an inexplicable excitement in his heart. He wanted to see what kind of person was able to dare to charge into Sanyang City alone, seize two halls in one day, and kill two masters of practicing Qigong.
Thinking of this, he immediately shouted, "Come with two teams, follow me to the Han family martial arts hall, and the rest of you will hand over immediately after the people from the Zhao family martial arts hall arrive. Don't covet any property. Those who disobey my order will have their hands chopped off."
Immediately, twenty escorts were ready.
"Set off."
Hu Yuanwei did not stay here any longer. Since what Zhao Ge said was true, he would also go to support the eldest brother of Zhao's martial arts school and take over the Han's martial arts school by the way.
Only after finishing these things could he feel at ease about sharing the water transport and medicine business.
