Chapter Thirty-Five Crisis

  Xiao Er's reaction was extremely quick, he rolled on the ground and drew out his long sword with a reverse grip. Then, he jumped up and when he saw his opponent, he became stunned: "Big brother, you..."

  The man was a bald-headed man in his forties, who glared at Xie Er with a fierce gaze, then turned to Su Tang and bowed respectfully: "This brother of mine is used to being wild and has no sense of propriety, Mr. Su, please be magnanimous and don't take him seriously." By the end, the man was already pleading with Su Tang.

  Bald-headed Han is actually Qiao Lao Da, who has been hanging out in Changshan County for a long time and knows the local situation very well. He offended the master of Miao Dao Pavilion, and the consequences are worrying. As long as there is a slight rumor, other wandering warriors will naturally exclude them and isolate them. Even if they go to another county to develop, it's useless. Miao Dao Pavilion and several neighboring counties often communicate with each other. If they know that they were forced to leave Changshan County because they offended the master of Miao Dao Pavilion, they will also think of ways to make things difficult for them. Unless they go to a more distant place or simply leave the country.

  Zhao Baoping and others were stunned, Qiao Lao Da had two heavy swords hanging from his waist, wearing exquisite leather armor, tall and broad-shouldered, with a thick waist and a fierce aura, looking like a seasoned warrior. Such a big man was so humble and courteous when speaking to Su Tang, which made them incomprehensible.

  "Old Man Qiao?" Su Tang also recognized the person, and had relevant information in the Wonderful Way Pavilion.

  "Ah, ah..." Old Cao said repeatedly: "Mr. Su asked me to call him by his first name, and I'm called Qiao Benchu."

  "Sit down." Su Tang nodded towards the empty chair.

  Qiao Lao Da hesitated for a moment, slowly sat down in the chair, at this moment his heart was extremely entangled, after managing to make a name for himself in Changshan County with great difficulty, could he just give up and flee like this?

  "Give me the gold coins." Su Tang stretched out his hand to Gu Xizheng.

  Gu Xi Zheng was taken aback for a moment, and hastily put the gold coins in Su Tang's palm.

  Su Tang placed the gold coins in front of Old Man Qiao, then pointed to Zhao Bao Ping and others with his hand, smiling: "They are all my friends, they have several carts of Qingguo fruit that they want to send to Kaiyuan County, but recently it seems that there has been banditry on the road, they dare not go. Old Man Qiao, can you... help them out and send them to Kaiyuan?"

  Qiao Lao Da stared foolishly at Su Tang for a long time before regaining his composure, nodding repeatedly: "No problem no problem, please rest assured Mr. Su, I guarantee they won't lose a single hair, otherwise I'll be the one to blame!"

  "Then I'll have to rely on Old Cao," Su Tang said. He himself wanted to take some money and pay the commission for Zhao Baoping, but one gold coin was really too little. However, doing so would hurt Zhao Baoping's self-esteem. It would be better to wait until Old Cao and others returned, and let Mo Xiaobai leave a few commissions for them, which would also count as repaying this favor.

  "Mr. Su, you're too kind," Old Cao said with a dry smile.

  "Let's just leave it at that. You all figure out when you're going to go yourselves." Su Tang stood up: "I still have some things to attend to, so I won't keep chatting with you all."

  "Mr. Su, that... this..." Old Qiao stuttered, thinking that at least a big loss of blood would be needed to break the curse and seek forgiveness, but unexpectedly Su Tang was about to leave, seemingly completely unbothered by the matter, leaving him speechless.

  "Oh..." Su Tang misunderstood and smiled: "When you get back, go find Mo Xiaobai and tell him I told you to look for him."

  Qiao Lao Da understood Su Tang's words and suddenly showed a look of extreme joy, while Xie Er's expression was very complicated, as if he was both crying and laughing.

  "Baoping, come out with me for a moment." Su Tang said.

  "Ah." Still in a daze, Zhao Baoping hastily got up and ran towards Su Tang.

  "Keep it a secret, if anyone asks you where I'm from, don't tell them, got it?" Su Tang said. He was leaving himself a way out, just in case things really went as wildly as Long Qi had said, and the world fell into chaos. He needed a place to hide. Besides, after going through enough materials, he no longer hoped to be a good kid, because doing this job would definitely make enemies, and he absolutely didn't want to implicate the innocent people of Xiao Lin Fort.

  "I understand." Zhao Baoping said.

  "Do many people know your background?" Su Tang asked again.

  "Not many, I used to be in the town, only came to Changshan County a few months ago." Zhao Baoping said, then remembered something: "Right, young master, Hua Nuo and Gu Xizheng both know..."

  "You also tell them to be more careful in the future and not to reveal our origins." Su Tang said.

  "Ah, don't worry, young master." Zhao Baoping had a lot of questions, but he didn't dare ask any.

  "Go back."

  Zhao Baoping turned around and walked back, Su Tang continued: "If there's anything in the future, come to Peng Laiju to find me."

  "Ah." Zhao Baoping replied.

  Zhao Baoping nodded in response, but he actually had no idea where Peng Laiju was. He sat back down in his own chair, thought for a moment, and then asked the middle-aged man, "Guan Ge, where is Peng Laiju?"

  Qiao Lao Da and others also heard the three words "Peng Lai Ju", all with a solemn face, that middle-aged man showed a bitter smile, and replied evasively: "Zhao younger brother, are you intentionally making fun of me?"

  "Brother Guan, no!" Zhao Baoping shouted out loud.

  "You know this noble person, but instead of going yourself, you let your elder brother run errands... aren't you doing it on purpose?"

  "I really didn't know that Young Master was also in Changshan County!" Zhao Baoping said: "Guan Ge, you take care of me like this, how could I deceive you? Besides, it's been several years since I've seen Young Master."

  "What place is your young master from?" Old Cao asked curiously.

  "Master is... from Kaiyuan County." Zhao Baoping said.

  On the other side, Hua Nuo and Gu Xi felt a bit strange in their hearts. Although they had invested a small amount of money, after all, they were doing business and were quick-witted, knowing that there was a problem inside. They both lowered their heads and didn't speak.

  Su Tang strolled through the street, walking casually and looking around. He didn't realize that at this moment, three people were standing in different places, staring at him from different angles with different gazes.

  Sitting by the window in the teahouse was Tie Jia's elder, Tie Canghai, whose eyes were filled with a smile of schadenfreude.

  In the teahouse, diagonally opposite, an old man with white hair was cautiously looking out from the gap in the window, he looked very tense and uneasy, his mouth kept shouting: "He's coming, he's coming... Are all the arrangements ready? You go, tell them to be careful not to use excessive force, just break one of his legs and let him know the power of the Zhao family."

  At the end of the long street, a young man with a feather fan waited silently, his face revealing unhidden ferocity and hatred. The Dragon Flag had withdrawn, and he should have been the one to take over as the master of the Miao Dao Pavilion. But then that unknown Su Tang suddenly appeared out of nowhere and seized his position. Today, he was going to reclaim what belonged to him.
