Chapter 424: First Time Entering the Jianghu 1
"Lianyi, your little brain works really fast!"
Wang Zhenzhen said with a smile.
"Then Aunt Zhen wants to go back to the Wang family. Isn't this the same as sending herself to the door?"
Ripple asked, tilting her head.
"I left the Wang family to recuperate at the age of sixteen, and it has been eighteen years now. Aside from attending your mother's wedding, I have never shown my face in the Wang family. When I went down the mountain to bring you back to Su Nu Palace, I only sent a letter to your grandmother saying you were safe, and we haven't exchanged letters frequently over the years.
For the safety of you and me, your grandmother usually never contacts me on her own initiative.
Now the Wang family should be handed over to Wang Yaohui. Your grandfather's health is getting worse and worse. If your grandfather passes away, your grandmother's situation will not be optimistic. In addition, some people's private actions, if I don't show up, your grandmother will suffer.
As a daughter, I have not been able to marry and have children according to her wishes, which is already unfilial. If I cannot ensure my mother's peaceful old age, then what I have learned in Su Nu Palace over the years will be meaningless."
Wang Zhenzhen said calmly.
"I understand. Lianyi will follow Aunt Zhen's arrangements and protect grandma."
Lian Yi replied with a smile.
"As for family matters, I have been away for too long, so I know very little. Your grandmother will not bother me with family matters, and will just let me concentrate on learning at Su Nu Palace. Therefore, we will have to wait until we meet your grandmother to understand the current situation of the Wang family more thoroughly."
Wang Zhenzhen knew that she would have to fight a tough battle when she returned, so she did not hide it from Lianyi.
"Don't worry, Aunt Zhen. We will stop the enemy with our troops and block the water with earth! In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are paper tigers. We have already appeared, and the people behind the scenes will surely come to the front slowly."
The two smiled at each other, waved their whips, and made the horses, which were walking leisurely, run. They had to leave the Su Nu Palace within one day and avoid those who were watching them.
The two traveled quickly for three days before they found a small town to stay. The town was not big, and the people who came and went were traveling merchants. The inn's business was quite prosperous. Lianyi and Aunt Zhen only booked an upper room, but the owner gave it to them because the person who reserved the room had not arrived yet.
The two washed off the dust and fatigue from the journey, and after dinner, they turned off the lights and went to rest early.
Of course, when walking outside, it is impossible not to be vigilant. Lianyi set up a formation in the room. If a thief broke in, he would be in trouble. Nothing happened that night. When the sky turned white, there was suddenly noise and shouting in the inn.
When Lianyi was in Su Nu Palace, she would get up early to practice, so she would wake up naturally when the time came. However, Wang Zhenzhen was very sensitive to sounds, so she would get up after hearing the noise.
Since the two of them were walking outside, they naturally could not wear the training clothes of the Su Nu Palace, so they both changed into short riding clothes that were convenient for movement. Wang Zhenzhen was wearing a light blue riding suit, and Lianyi was wearing a bright red riding suit. Neither of them had any extra accessories on them, but they were very eye-catching.
When they entered the town yesterday, it was already late, so they didn't attract much attention. They didn't plan to go out for a stroll today. They were going to have a good rest for the day and set off at dawn tomorrow. Who knew they would be disturbed so early.
Just as the two of them were dressed, there was a knock on the door, and it was very rude, which was obviously not a good thing.
Lian Yi was about to go forward to open the door when she was stopped by Wang Zhenzhen:
"Lianyi, pack your things. If you're not tired, we'll set off soon."
"Yes, Aunt Jane."
Ripple nodded in response.
It’s mainly Wang Zhenzhen’s bag. Her bag is just for show. All her things are in the space, so she doesn’t have to carry it herself.
After Lianyi packed up her things, Wang Zhenzhen sent the person who knocked on the door away.
"let's go!"
"These people are so overbearing. They clearly missed the date for booking the room, and now they are ordering us to leave!"
Lianyi heard the conversation between the two clearly and naturally knew what was going on.
"It doesn't matter! The innkeeper doesn't dare to offend these people, so naturally he can only work on us. However, the guy who accompanied us said that the room fee for this night will be fully refunded to us, so we won't lose anything."
Wang Zhenzhen doesn't care about these.
The two men went downstairs and went straight to get the returned silver, but just as they were getting the silver, the door of the inn was slammed shut from the inside, and two tall and strong men with fleshy faces blocked the door.
When the shopkeeper saw this, he crawled under the counter and hid. It seemed that he encountered this kind of situation frequently.
"My two beauties, since you have stayed in the room I reserved, do you want to pay for it?"
A domineering voice came from the corner.
Lianyi and Wang Zhenzhen turned around and saw a young man in gorgeous clothes sitting at a square table in the corner of the lobby. He had an ordinary appearance, and his clothes were the only contrast. At this moment, he was looking at the two of them with his chin raised smugly.
There were several sturdy men standing next to the young man in fancy clothes. One look at their bulging arms revealed that they were martial artists. They must be the young man's bodyguards. A rough count revealed that there were fifteen of them standing in the lobby of the inn.
At this time, besides them, there were only two women, Lianyi and Wang Zhenzhen, in the hall, not counting the shopkeeper and the waiter who were hiding. It must be this group of people who were causing the noise before and drove everyone else out.
"Sir, you are so overbearing. It was obviously you who missed the reserved room, but now you are trying to embarrass us two weak women. How can this be justified?"
Lian Yi looked at the young man and then spoke with a smile.
"I came out in a hurry this time, and I am in need of a maid to serve tea and water, and a talkative girl to relieve my boredom. I think you two are just right, so you can stay with me, and the room fee will be waived. I will also give you some benefits when the time comes, so that you two won't run into bad people."
The young man even pretended to open a folding fan and waved it twice in a self-righteous and dashing manner.
Wang Zhenzhen had no expression on her face, but Lianyi still smiled and asked:
"May I ask where you are going, sir? If it's on your way, we will follow you."
"It must be on the way, even if it's not on the way! This time I'm going to Longxi."
"Yeah! It's really on the way. Then we will go with you, sir."
The young man paused for a moment as he was fanning his folding fan. He didn't expect the two to agree so readily. He glanced at Lianyi and the other person with some suspicion.
"Why, sir, are you afraid that we will harm you? Then we can just go by ourselves. Have your followers open the door and don't waste our time."
Lianyi saw the confusion in the other person's eyes and spread her hands.
"you"
The young man had just said a word when there was a sudden noise from the roof, followed by tiles falling off. Many shirtless men fell from the roof, waving swords and fighting with the people in the hall.
Lian Yi and Wang Zhenzhen almost immediately withdrew from the battle and hid behind the counter.
"Protect the young master!"
Someone shouted loudly, and then the sounds of fighting and screaming filled the entire space.
My dears, I'm sorry. Today, my brother's beast came to visit Feng Ling. He insisted that I eat, play and sleep with him. He spent a whole day with him before he left. Feng Ling only wrote one chapter. I'll make up the rest tomorrow! Everyone, go to bed early after reading this! Good night~
