Chapter 53 Doubts
Chen Qing, the entire Xuanzhou, is well-known to the Salt Gang, and even people in the surrounding prefectures and counties, have heard of it.
He was very righteous, generous, and often made good friends. From bureaucrats and powerful people to poor people, he praised him very much. He was the only one who was born in the Xuanwu Sword Sect, and he had few opponents with the Storm Sword, so he was known as the "Sword of Wind and Rain".
However, such a person suddenly arrived in Qingzhou, and I am afraid that no one would be suspicious. Especially recently, the situation is unstable. Pang Shaoyuan, the leader of Pang, who is responsible for defending the territory, naturally took great importance to him. Shortly after Chen Qing entered the city, he sent someone to quietly follow them to investigate the purpose of their trip.
Unfortunately, this move was destined to be hidden from Chen Qing's eyes and ears. After they found an inn and settled in, their subordinates immediately reported to Chen Qing.
"Never mind, your most important task is to find out the whereabouts of your target."
Chen Qing's attitude was very clear and he was not affected at all by Pang Shaoyuan's actions.
"But if the truth is revealed in the future..." his subordinates said worriedly.
"Master Zhu, you just need to remember to find the goal, and everything will be worry-free." Chen Qing said in a deep voice. "But if the goal is lost, you and I will not be able to escape without Tang Xuanfu's actions in the future!"
"Yes! My subordinates understand." After hearing this, Lord Zhu couldn't help but sweat and retreat.
"I hope your news is true."
When Tang Chenqing was left in the room, he murmured to himself as he groped through the teacup left with the remaining warmth in his hand.
...
After some diagnosis and treatment of the little girl Yaoyao in Huichun Pavilion, her condition was significantly relieved after taking the prepared medicine soup. Chen An himself asked the doctors in Huichun Pavilion to apply medicine to bandage the back injury again. If he hadn't been of the same physical condition as ordinary people, ordinary people would have been suppurated and infected with such a severe knife wound.
After finishing the treatment, Chen An found a good inn through inquiries and handed over the carriage to the inn to take care of it. As for money, he did not lack it. Not to mention the large amount of money carried by the little girl and her daughter, the gold and silver he got from the robbers alone. Through simple consumption, he could roughly judge the value of wealth.
According to modern society, he is now like a rich man carrying hundreds of thousands of dollars with him, saving money on food, clothing and consumption is enough to support him for seven or eight years.
After returning to the room with the little girl on her back, she kept sleeping in the bed, and Chen An only had time to carefully check the large amount of miscellaneous items he had plundered.
The most eye-catching one is a booklet with tiger claws and a quirky silver token that looks like a sword and a knife.
Recalling carefully, the booklet of Tiger Claws should have been found by him from the robber leader, and the weird token was kept in the carriage package where the mother and daughter were riding.
He put the token of unknown significance aside for the time being, and focused his attention on the book of Tiger Claws. After all, he had the habit of reading, and the book was obviously like a legendary martial arts secret, so Chen An naturally chose it to watch it.
The booklet was very thin, and Chen An, who was lit with candlelight, quickly finished reading it.
This is indeed the secret of this martial arts. The martial arts drawn in it belong to the kind of grapple moves, which can make up for Chen An's shortcomings in this regard, because Rachel taught him that most of the fighting moves are mainly strong punches and kicks, and the kind of grapple is rarely used, which is probably attributed to the fact that different worlds are related to the fighting styles.
The tiger hook claw booklet has simple and easy-to-understand move illustrations, which seem to be quite easy to learn, but the actual application requires a lot of practice and practical combat to integrate them. Chen An wrote down these moves and practiced them all several times. Unfortunately, no one can beat the moves, and in the end he just learned the basics.
Before going to bed, he came to the little girl's bed and saw her breathing smoothly and sleeping peacefully, and couldn't help but feel relieved. He planned to rest for two days in the city. First, wait for the little girl's condition to recover, and second, he was to inquire about the specific situation of the current world, and take the opportunity to learn about the escort business recommended by the officer.
One night passed.
Before dawn, the little girl who had been sleeping for a day woke up first. She opened her sleepy eyes and saw a dark strange bed tent. In a daze, she seemed to remember that she fell asleep shortly after taking the bitter medicine soup yesterday. Finally, someone seemed to be carrying her on the soft bed to rest.
She suddenly stood upright from the bed, and when she saw someone next to her who was not far from him, she felt at ease, and clinked her actions woke the other person up at the same time.
"You're awake?"
Chen An yawned and looked at the little girl who looked at him.
"Um."
The little girl immediately lay back, and turned around and pulled up the quilt to cover her head.
"Hungry?"
Chen An looked out the sky outside the window, then walked out of bed, and opened the window of the room.
"Hungry." The little girl's head was covered in the quilt, and the sounds made were a little dull and dull.
"What do you want to eat later?" Chen An returned to the bedside and reached out to pull off the bedding that the girl covered her head. "Are you much better? Do you still feel dizzy and fever?"
"No more, I just feel uncomfortable in my nose." The little girl still said with her back to Chen An. "I want to eat hot noodle soup and big meat buns later."
"I'll go and get the work done in the store to deliver our room."
As he said that, Chen An walked out of the house.
"Wait!" As soon as he opened the door, the little girl's voice suddenly rang out.
"What's the matter?" Chen An asked, turning his head.
"You will leave me alone and sneak away?" the little girl whispered.
“…I won’t leave you.”
Chen An returned to the room shortly after leaving.
He looked at the little girl who was still lying on the bed and said, "Get up, wash and prepare for breakfast."
When the little girl heard this, she got up at the bed, then finished washing up under Chen An's gaze, and sat honestly at the dining table.
I don’t know if it was out of timidity and fear, but she didn’t look at Chen An directly from beginning to end.
"I'm going out for a walk after breakfast. Do you want to be with me?" Chen An said.
"Okay." The little girl murmured with her head hanging down.
"When I go out, I will ask my friend to make some hot water for you to take a shower, and then change your clothes." Chen An looked at the little girl's slightly sloppy look and said, "Do you have any objection?"
"No." The little girl cherishes her words like a golden Taoist.
Chen An understood that the little girl was not liked to talk, and her life changed drastically. Her mother's death undoubtedly caused great harm to her young mind. Chen An himself might not be able to bear it for a while.
