Chapter 386 Meeting the Qing Guards Again
Chapter 386 Meeting the Qing Guards Again
Compared to Ma Chunhua who closed her eyes helplessly and rested, Ma Xingkong beside her was in a daze, with thoughts in her heart.
Xu Zheng, whose leg was injured, was already tired and tired because Xu Xingchen tapped the [sleeping point] on his body, so he huddled next to the fire and fell asleep.
Drowsiness welled up in his mind, and Ma Xingkong gradually drifted off to sleep. His body gradually fell into sleep, and his consciousness gradually became blurred.
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly I heard the sound of human voices. Ma Xingkong, who was in a light sleep state, suddenly woke up and sat up quickly. His heartbeat accelerated and he looked around alertly.
But I heard the sound of footsteps, and there were many people coming, but they had already reached the temple gate.Just heard a voice shouting.
"Lao Yuan! Lao Zhao!"
This voice was full of familiarity and kindness, which made Ma Xingkong feel a little at ease.
"Yuan Shanquan! Zhao Junior College!"
"Boom!" A sound.
The temple door that Xu Xingchen had held up with a tree branch was kicked open, and the group of people rushed directly into the temple.
At this moment, Xu Xingchen and Xiao Zhonghui had also woken up and stood up to observe the people coming.
The people who came in were all men, about five or six of them, and the one at the front was a dwarf with a wretched appearance and a thin build.
When the wretched-looking dwarf saw Xiao Zhonghui next to Xu Xingchen, his eyes rolled around and he stared at her. His gaze seemed to be attracted by Xiao Zhonghui's beauty and he couldn't help himself.
Because Xiao Zhonghui has a beautiful face, fair and delicate skin, like snow-white jade and porcelain, exuding a charming luster, and her figure is graceful and well-proportioned, like a perfect sculpture.
The wretched-looking dwarf couldn't take his eyes off Xiao Zhonghui. There was a hint of greed and lust in his eyes, as if he had a strong interest in Xiao Zhonghui.
Seeing this, Xiao Zhonghui raised her eyebrows. Feeling his gaze, she couldn't help feeling disgusted in her heart. She clenched her fist tightly in anticipation of an attack. Xu Xingchen quickly held her jade hand.
At this time, Xu Xingchen also noticed this scene. His face suddenly became gloomy and he walked to Xiao Zhonghui's side, blocking the sight of the wretched-looking dwarf with his body to protect her.
Xiao Zhonghui, who was behind Xu Xingchen, was fuming, wondering how come these stinky men all have this kind of virtue?Looking at the broad back in front of her, Xiao Zhonghui felt a sense of warmth and peace of mind.
The wretched-looking dwarf met Xu Xingchen's gaze in front of him, and there was a gloomy look in Xu Xingchen's eyes, as if he was warning him.
At this moment, the wretched-looking dwarf was intimidated by Xu Xingchen's aura and couldn't help but take a step back.
The other people couldn't help but be surprised when they saw the situation in the hall. One of them shouted loudly to Ma Xingkong, Xu Xingchen and Xiao Zhonghui at the front.
"Who are you? Where are Lao Yuan and Lao Zhao? Where have they gone?"
The man's voice was full of doubts and vigilance towards Ma Xingkong, Xu Xingchen and Xiao Zhonghui.
Xu Xingchen's eyes scanned those people sharply, his eyes lingering on each person for a moment, trying to find some clues.
However, when his eyes fell on a person described as vulgar, his pupils shrank suddenly, because this person described as vulgar was Rui Dalin, the Qing guard who he and Xiao Zhonghui had fought against before.
What surprised Xu Xingchen the most was that one of the middle-aged men with a majestic appearance and tall stature was none other than Zhang Zhaozhong, the "Firehand Judge" who had defeated him and escaped.
A complex emotion surged in Xu Xingchen's heart. He did not expect to meet Zhang Zhaozhong here again. Recalling the last confrontation, Xu Xingchen couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
Zhang Zhaozhong's martial arts skills and vicious methods forced him to be vigilant at all times. Xu Xingchen was not afraid of him, but he still had Xiao Zhonghui to protect him.
But it was obvious that Xu Xingchen noticed Zhang Zhaozhong and Rui Dalin, but they did not notice Xu Xingchen and Xiao Zhonghui.
Ma Xingkong struggled to stand up. Although his body was injured, he still tried to maintain his dignity. He cupped his fists towards the people in front of him.
"The little old man's horse is empty."
"I wonder who you are?"
The few people in front of them were stunned for a moment when they heard the sound. They did not expect that this seemingly inconspicuous old man was actually Ma Xingkong, the legendary [Fist of Yum] in the world.
The wretched-looking dwarf at the front of the group rushed to say.
"Ha, are you that [Yum Fist] in the arena? Why are you so stinky? Did you get beaten up or something?"
Then, the wretched-looking dwarf at the front rolled his eyes and glanced at the pretty Ma Chunhua next to Ma Xingkong.
She had a snow-white oval face, dark eyes, flushed cheeks, and a lively and youthful aura full of energy.
She is lively, lively, bright, and has a delicate appearance. Although she is wearing a large light blue gown, she cannot hide her graceful figure and extraordinary beauty.
Her figure is graceful and her curves are as beautiful as a work of art.
The eyes of the wretched-looking dwarf revealed a trace of greed and desire for Ma Chunhua in front of him, and there was an evil smile on the corner of his mouth.
"You are so rude, old boy!"
At this time, Zhang Zhaozhong walked out from among them and said coldly to the wretched-looking dwarf.
"Disciple, look, those two people, aren't they the two lackeys of the Qing Dynasty before? Why are they here?"
The beautiful eyes of Xiao Zhonghui, who was hiding behind Xu Xingchen, noticed Zhang Zhaozhong and Rui Dalin among those people. Tension and worry surged in her heart. She hurriedly whispered to Xu Xingchen, who she thought was her disciple. road.
"fine."
"We improvise."
Xu Xingchen, who heard the sound, knew that Xiao Zhonghui behind him was very nervous, so he comforted her softly, his eyes firm and calm.
By now, Xiao Zhonghui had lost all control and her heartbeat was racing. However, she tried her best to stay calm and control her emotions.
Fortunately, Xu Xingchen's broad back gave her a bit of comfort and support.
The existence of Xu Xingchen gave Xiao Zhonghui a glimmer of hope. His broad back made Xiao Zhonghui feel at ease and dependent. She knew that no matter what happened, Xu Xingchen would be by her side.
The two continued to quietly observe the situation ahead, their eyes sharp and alert, but Zhang Zhaozhong and Rui Dalin did not seem to notice their presence.
At this moment, Zhang Zhaozhong suddenly turned his head and looked at the four people in front of him, Ma Xingkong, Ma Chunhua, Xu Xingchen and Xiao Zhonghui.
His sharp gaze stayed on Xu Xingchen and Xiao Zhonghui for a while, as if thinking about something.
Seeing this, Xu Xingchen knew that Zhang Zhaozhong had recognized them, so he was ready to take action, but at this moment, Zhang Zhaozhong made no move.
On the contrary, Zhang Zhaozhong turned to look at Ma Xingkong and said lightly.
"It turns out to be Mr. Ma, the escort leader. I want to ask for advice on all the boxing techniques."
This sentence surprised Ma Xingkong. He did not expect that Zhang Zhaozhong would take the initiative to ask him for boxing skills. However, as an experienced old escort leader, Ma Xingkong did not show any surprise.
At this time, Xiao Zhonghui saw that Zhang Zhaozhong's gaze only stayed on herself and her (who she thought was) his disciple Xu Xingchen for a while.
This made her feel a little confused, because Zhang Zhaozhong didn't directly shout and attack them. Therefore, Xiao Zhonghui asked Xu Xingchen in a low voice, very confused.
"Teacher, what's going on?"
"Then the lackeys of the Qing Dynasty, it seems they didn't notice us?"
Xu Xingchen, who was silent, thought for a while, looked at Xiao Zhonghui, smiled slightly and replied softly.
"Huihui, I think he may be observing us, but he didn't notice our existence."
"After all, sometimes dogs have well-developed limbs and simple minds."
"Hey, apprentice, you are... poof...!"
It was clear that the current situation was critical, but Xiao Zhonghui was almost made to laugh by Xu Xingchen, who he thought was his disciple.
Xu Xingchen's words made Xiao Zhonghui smile. She felt his humor and optimism. Although they were in danger, Xu Xingchen always seemed to be able to resolve the tense atmosphere in a relaxed way.
These were just words Xu Xingchen said to comfort Xiao Zhonghui to fool her.
Because Xu Xingchen knew [Fire Hand Judge] Zhang Zhaozhong, he was a shrewd person with very keen insight and perception.
However, why didn't he notice their presence?
Perhaps, Xu Xingchen secretly guessed that Zhang Zhaozhong might have neglected to observe them for some reason. Perhaps he was overconfident and believed that his abilities and status were unmatched, thus ignoring the surrounding details.
Alternatively, Zhang Zhaozhong may have been distracted by other things that distracted him from their presence.
However, Xu Xingchen is not afraid of him. He will take care of him as he comes. Now that Zhang Zhaozhong has appeared, he is ready to meet him. No matter what kind of tricks he comes up with, Xu Xingchen is willing to go all out.
Xu Xingchen took a deep breath to stabilize his emotions. He knew that facing an opponent like Zhang Zhaozhong, calmness and composure were the most important things.
At this time, Zhang Zhaozhong had slowly walked up to Ma Xingkong. His eyes were firm and calm, as if everything was under his control.
When Ma Chunhua knew that her father, Ma Xingkong, was injured, she became nervous and she quickly shouted.
"Hey, what are you doing! My dad is injured!" Her voice was full of worry and anger.
"Cough cough!"
"Chun'er, get out of the way, it's okay."
Seeing this, Ma Xingkong waved his hand, coughed, and spoke. Although his voice was a little hoarse, it was full of determination and confidence.
Ma Chunhua felt hesitant when she heard what her father, Ma Xingkong, said. She knew that her father, Ma Xingkong, was a strong man and would not show weakness easily, but now, she couldn't help but worry about his injury. .
