Chapter 103 Chapter 103: Beggar Gang Elder

But it is said that Ling Haotian, Qi Jiguang and their officers and soldiers chased for more than a month and entered the coastal area of ​​Zhejiang Province.A group of people passed by a small town near the sea that day, but saw that the local roof tiles were damaged and the population was scattered. This was the case in several villages and towns.When I asked the local people, I found out that this place was often invaded by Japanese pirates, and the residents were unbearable and moved to other places one after another. Qi Jiguang said angrily: "Who is the commander here? How can he sit back and watch the Japanese pirates run rampant?"The soldiers under him hurriedly said: Don't talk too much, Mr. Qi!The inspector of military affairs in this area is Zhao Wenhua, he is the adopted son of Yan Da's chief assistant, and he cannot be blamed.Qi Jiguang said angrily: "Why can't you blame me?"Doesn't the governor of Zhejiang care?The officer said: "The governor of this province is Mr. Hu Zongxian. He has a close relationship with Mr. Zhao, and he is also very close to Mr. Yan.

Qi Jiguang snorted.He was unhappy when he saw the disturbance of the coastal residents.Ling Haotian saw that the village was in ruins and the people were in dire straits, and he felt sad in his heart.Qi Jiguang looked at the ocean and sighed: Japanese Japanese pirates have invaded our coastal towns for a long time, and they have only become more rampant recently!Not only the Japanese pirates made rebellions, but also many Chinese people occupied small overseas islands as camps, took ships to rob sea merchants, and helped the evildoers.It's a pity that I have a small official position, so I can't manage here!If I can pass the martial arts examination and be promoted to be a conductor, I will definitely wipe out these Japanese pirates, defend the coastal residents, and do my part for the country.Brother Ling, I once wrote a poem to express my aspirations, and there are two lines like this: I don't want to be a Marquis, but I hope Haibo will be peaceful.

Ling Haotian nodded and said: "Brother Qi wants to be tall, and I admire him so much."Qi Jiguang turned his head to look at him, and asked: "Brother Ling has a unique skill, which is rare in the world, but what ambition does he have in his life?" Ling Haotian was startled, but couldn't answer for a moment.His family's medical skills and martial arts are famous all over the world. His father is determined to practice medicine to help the world and save the sick; his mother once led the heroes with extraordinary martial arts talents to quell the chaos; two brothers, one is a swordsman who is famous in martial arts, and the other is a famous gang leader. As for himself, although he has learned martial arts and medical skills, he has never seriously thought about what he wants to do in his life, and he can't help but feel ashamed: Brother Qi is the same age as me, but he has such ambition.I have a whole body of martial arts, but I am addicted to my own emotions. I have never thought about aspiring to do great things. It is really a waste of my life.Immediately said: brother ashamed, never made great ambitions.Today I heard that brother Qi's ambition is to protect the country and the people, so I admire him.

Qi Jiguang took his hand and said: "Brother Ling is a dragon and phoenix among men, with arrogance and courage, and the country's affairs require people like Brother Ling to come forward."Ling Haotian was excited, and said: I would like to encourage each other with Brother Qi. However, Ling Haotian, Qi Jiguang and their men continued to chase Wu Ruxiang southwards, all the way to Quzhou.After entering the city, Qi Jiguang sent his men out to inquire, and found out that the Asura Society had gathered fifty or sixty people in Quzhou, and they were about to embarrass Lu Yan, the hero of Quzhou.He told Ling Haotian, and asked if he had heard of Lu Yan's name.Ling Haotian pondered and said: I have heard people mention this Quzhou hero. I heard that he is cautious. In recent years, he has kept a low profile and lived in seclusion. I don't know why the Asura Society would trouble him?

Qi Jiguang said: Maybe he and the Asura Society had a relationship in the past.We should visit the Lu Mansion, help and protect.The two of them immediately held the greeting card and came to Lufu.The servant asked the two to sit in the hall, and after a while, a servant girl said: "Miss is here." But I saw a young girl in Tsing Yi walking out from behind the screen, she was only sixteen or seventeen years old, with long eyebrows and phoenix eyes, very heroic.She bowed to the two of them and said: My father is not in good health, so I am sorry that I cannot welcome the distinguished guest in person.I don't know if you have any instructions for the two visits?

Qi Jiguang said that he came to protect him.Miss Lu shook her head and said: You two must have misheard the news.Our mansion has never had any enmity with the various gangs and sects in the martial arts, so how could there be an attack from the Shura Society?Besides, even if there is a foreign enemy, my Lu family can resist it, so how dare I bother you two? Qi Jiguang said: "Miss Lu, I have heard the real news that the Asura Society will be detrimental to your family."I led the officers and soldiers to the southeast from Shandong to hunt down the villains in the Asura Society, so I cannot stand by and watch the Asura Society commit crimes.Just in case, I am willing to lead 60 soldiers under my command to come to your mansion to help and protect, lest thieves disturb your father.

But Miss Lu shook her head and said: "My Lu family is a commoner. I have always followed the law and obeyed the law. I have nothing to do with the official family. I dare not have a senior official like this.The two expressed their affection, and the little girl accepted it on behalf of her father.After finishing speaking, he asked the maid to see off the guests, with a very decisive attitude. Ling Haotian and Qi Jiguang glanced at each other, wondering why this girl was so repulsive from thousands of miles away.After the two left, Qi Jiguang said: "The news should not be wrong."How about this, since we knew that Shura would come to Lu's house, we guarded outside the house, waiting for the opportunity to catch some villains.Ling Haotian nodded, feeling very suspicious of Miss Lu's attitude in his heart, and said, "Brother Qi, my younger brother wants to visit the city, and I will meet you here in the evening."

After the two parted, Ling Haotian went around to the back of Lu's house, jumped over the wall, walked lightly, walked around the courtyard, and came out of the hall.But he heard voices in the living room, he leaned forward, looked through the window, and saw Miss Lu sitting in the main seat, and in the guest seat were more than ten beggars, one of them was Lai Gujiu, the elder of the beggar gang .Ling Haotian thought to himself: So the Lu family and the Beggar Gang are familiar.They already have a gang of beggars to help and protect them, so naturally they don't need officers and soldiers to help.

But Lai Gujiu said: Miss Lu, the news we have heard is absolutely true, not rumors.My beggar gang and the Asura Society originally had a rift. A month ago, we sent people to monitor their actions, and learned that the Asura Society came to Quzhou in large numbers, intending to embarrass your family.My beggar gang and your father belong to the same line of upright martial arts. After hearing the news, they rushed to help each other. Miss Lu said: Thank you Elder Lai for your kindness.But my father was upright and innocent all his life, and never offended anyone, so it was unreasonable to suffer this disaster.If Shura Society wants to come, let him come. My father and daughter feel at ease and are not afraid of him.Elder Lai wanted to defend on his behalf, but there was really no need for it, so we had no choice but to thank him.

When she said this, Lai Gujiu in the hall and Ling Haotian outside the hall felt very strange.Ling Haotian thought to himself: The Asura Society made it clear that they wanted to embarrass the Lu family, even the Beggar Gang got the news, why did the Lu family refuse to ask for help? Lai Gujiu persuaded her a few more times, and Miss Lu said firmly that she did not want the help of the beggar gang.Lai Gujiu couldn't convince her, so he asked if he could meet her father and have an interview with Lu Daxia.Ms. Lai said: "My father is practicing in seclusion, and he hasn't seen outsiders for a month. I ask Elder Lai to forgive me."Ling Haotian thought to himself: She told us that her father was ill, but told the beggar gang that he was in retreat.What happened to this father and daughter?

Lai Gujiu had no choice but to say goodbye to Miss Lu and leave. Ling Haotian used his lightness kung fu to visit various parts of the Lu family, but he saw that there were no guards in the front and back, the house was empty, and there were not many servants and family members. He thought: If the Asura Society really came to attack, how could the Lu family resist it?When I got to the house, I saw that Miss Lu came with two maids and entered a big room. She asked the maids to wait at the door, and walked in by herself.Ling Haotian practiced Wuwushengong, and could vaguely hear the conversation in the room, but he heard Miss Lu say: Father, the members of the Beggar Gang have left. An old voice said: You ask the family to see if the beggar gang is still guarding our house.We must leave our family defenseless. When the enemy breaks in, the more dangerous the situation, the better.Miss Lu replied: Yes, I will send someone to check right away. Ling Haotian wondered: If this person wanted to die, why didn't he commit suicide by wiping his neck?If you want to be killed by Asura Society, why not send it to your door yourself?Why sit at home and wait for someone to attack?Then I thought again: Could it be that he has set a trap?Then I went to look around again, but how could there be any traps?Not to mention that it was the Asura Society that was coming to attack, even ordinary thieves and robbers could easily break in.Ling Haotian couldn't hold back his curiosity, and went back outside the inner hall, but there was no one there anymore.He waited for a while, and there was no movement from the Lu family, so he climbed over the wall and went out, intending to find Qi Jiguang.
