Chapter 14 Guards

After an hour, Zhuo Feiyang challenged again, but as soon as he made a move, he was hit by the sword immediately, his face was pale and ugly.

The sword pierced his shoulder, and he couldn't move anymore.

He gritted his teeth, with a livid face, turned and left without saying a word, even ignoring Suru and Zhao Ying, clutching his shoulders and walking away.

When Zhao Ying was about to board the boat, she gave Chu Li a hard look. She didn't expect Senior Brother Chu to be so cunning, and she was also deceived, which made her worry a lot.

Chu Li smiled apologetically.

After he watched the boat disappear, he turned his head to meet Suru's smiling eyes.

Suru pursed her lips and smiled lightly: "Chu Li, do you like Zhao Ying?"

Chu Li smiled.

Suru chuckled lightly: "It seems that Zhuo Feiyang also likes her very much. If you two stand together, Zhuo Feiyang will have an advantage."

Chu Li remained silent.

Suru looked at him with a smile: "Zhao Ying seems to be quite popular."

"She is beautiful, gentle and kind, which man doesn't like her?" Chu Li sighed, feeling melancholy, Zhao Ying didn't like her.

"Do you think you have hope?"

"certainly!"

"I see Xuan!" Suru pursed her lips and chuckled lightly, "Can you compete against Zhuo Feiyang?"

"..." Chu Li frowned.

Zhuo Feiyang is not only a genius, but also handsome, more attractive to women than himself, he does not deceive himself, he is indeed inferior to Zhuo Feiyang, and women like Zhuo Feiyang, full of masculinity and amazing charm, he is bleak in front of Zhuo Feiyang .

Fortunately, Zhao Ying is not an ordinary woman, she has a kind nature and sympathizes with the weak.

But now that Zhuo Feiyang has become weak, it is a question whether she will sympathize with him instead.

"Frustrated and disappointed?" Suru said with a smile, looking at him with bright eyes like water.

Chu Li shook his head and said, "I won't give up!"

"That's right!" Suru smiled and said, "Giving up is not like Chu Li!...Do you want me to help?"

Chu Li frowned and looked at her.

Suru smiled and said, "Don't believe I can help?"

"Thank you, Manager!" Chu Li cupped his fists and bowed deeply: "Please, Manager, help me!"

When it's time to ask for help, ask for help without hesitation. If you don't have the courage to fight, how can you get a woman!

Suru giggled coquettishly, and shook her head after laughing for a while: "You men..., really!"

Chu Li smiled embarrassedly: "I can't just watch the woman I like being snatched away by other men, can I? Besides, Zhuo Feiyang is not a good companion, I can't just watch Junior Sister Zhao jump into the fire pit!"

"I still don't know what you're thinking?" Suru gave him a look and snorted, "You men think that you are the only one worthy of a beautiful woman, and you shouldn't be with other men!"

Chu Li laughed twice.

Suru snorted, "Okay, I'm not joking with you, this time I'm here for business."

"Yes!" Chu Li's expression became serious.

Suru glanced around, Li Yue wasn't there, only the two of them stood by the lake, slowly approaching, the lake was refreshing, empty and quiet.

"Can you grow fairy beards in large quantities?"

"If you are not afraid of destroying the land, no problem."

"Okay, this time we need a large number of fairy beards, you should plant them as soon as possible!"

"How many?"

"At least twenty acres!"

"Twenty acres!?" Chu Li frowned at her: "These twenty acres of land will be abandoned, and it will take at least five years to recover!"

"Um."

"...It is best to choose to plant outside the government, and the more fertile the soil, the better."

"That's exactly what I mean!" Suru lowered her jaw and said in a deep voice, "This matter must be kept secret!"

Chu Li nodded slowly.

Judging by Suru's expression, he knew that this matter cannot be made public.

"There is a valley on the other side of Shiwanda Mountain. It is very hidden. You can plant it there. The land there is very rich."

"Yes." Chu Li nodded without hesitation.

"This matter is kept secret and cannot attract attention." Suru shook her head: "But there must be no mistakes, so I plan to assign you a guard."

"One more person is one more risk." Chu Li said, "I'll do it myself!"

"What if something happens on the way!" Suru gave him a look and snorted, "Can you handle it?"

Chu Li frowned, smiled, and looked in the direction where the boat disappeared in the distance.

Suru snorted, "Okay, let Zhao Ying follow you!"

"Thank you, Manager!" Chu Li was overjoyed, cupping his fists and saluting.

"Hmph, this is what you want, but if things go wrong, you will be demoted to two ranks, and Zhao Ying will also be demoted to a handyman!"

"yes!"

"Going out and getting into trouble, you know what to do?"

"Don't worry, the manager, we will never reveal our identities!"

"You're smart!" Suru nodded in satisfaction, it's a test to hand over this matter to Chu Li, to see if he can handle it.

——

In the early morning, at the south gate of the Duke's Mansion.

Under the bright sunshine, the two giant bronze lions seemed to come alive, ready to pounce on people at any time.

Zhao Ying was wearing a lake green shirt, leading a bay red horse, standing quietly beside a giant lion, staring at the door with bright eyes.

It was still early, and almost no one came in or out at the door. Her slender eyebrows frowned from time to time. This mission made her a little curious.

When she received the mission, the mission was to escort a person, act secretly, and she was not allowed to tell anyone, and she didn't say who the other party was. She was only asked to wait at the south gate in the morning, and someone would come to find her.

She is very curious and excited, and it is rare for her to encounter a mission outside.

I don't know how many people will be involved in this mission, who will be escorted, maybe some high-ranking and powerful people, only these big people keep their whereabouts secret, afraid that others will find out.

The Duke's Mansion is powerful and prominent, and its reputation spreads all over the world, but these reputations are all made of heads, and there are many enemies. Those martial arts figures are bloody, and they are desperate for revenge. Once their whereabouts are revealed, they may be surrounded by a group of evil wolves .

She was just a rank-9 guard, and it was the first time she participated in such a secret operation. She was inexplicably excited, her bright eyes lit up, and she waited for a long time without any sense of impatience.

She suddenly saw Chu Li, and hurriedly waved her small hands, signaling Chu Li to leave quickly, and leave quickly, instead of coming to say hello.

Although curious why Chu Li is also holding the horse, as if he is going to leave the house, but he doesn't care about these things, he is focused on the person who is going to appear, and he doesn't want to miss that person, or leave a bad impression on the other party.

Chu Li led a bay red horse and walked slowly to Zhao Ying.

Zhao Ying glanced around quickly with her bright eyes, and said in a low voice, "Brother Chu, what are you doing!"

Chu Li smiled and said, "Junior Sister Zhao, who are you waiting for?"

"No one is waiting!" Zhao Ying said hurriedly.

This mission is confidential and cannot be told to anyone, she keeps this in mind.

Chu Li shook his head and laughed: "Are you waiting for me?"

"Nonsense, I didn't wait for anyone!" Zhao Yingjiao snorted and waved her little hands: "Brother Chu, if you have anything to say, talk to another day, hurry up and do your work, I'll leave right away!"

Chu Li laughed.

Zhao Ying frowned and glared at him.

Chu Li shook his head and smiled, "Junior Sister Zhao, you are indeed waiting for me."

"Senior Brother Chu—!" Zhao Ying stomped her feet coquettishly, her face flushed red.

Chu Li said: "Your task this time is to escort me!"

"Huh—?" Zhao Yingming's eyes widened.

Chu Li nodded and said: "Yes, it is to escort me, a confidential mission."

"Really... is it really you?" Zhao Yingming blinked her eyes and pointed at him in surprise.

Chu Li smiled and said, "Is there a word Li on your task book?"

Zhao Ying frowned and looked at him.

Chu Li said: "You have the badge of the Duke's Mansion, right?"

Zhao Ying nodded.

"You can't take it with you, put it back, you can't bring anything that can identify you on this mission."

"It's really you?" Zhao Ying asked disappointedly.

Chu Li couldn't help laughing: "Hurry up, let's set off quickly!"

"Are there any other guards?"

"No more, only you, your task is important!"

"why me?"

"Let me explain to you on the way, act quickly!" Chu Li waved his hand.

Zhao Ying glanced at him, turned around and walked into the mansion, and quickly disappeared after performing lightness kung fu.

After a while, she hurried back and hummed, "Let's go!"

The two mounted their horses and rode side by side.

The south gate of the Duke's Mansion is the north gate of Chongming City. The two of them walked slowly in Chongming City, surrounded by traffic and bustling. The whole Chongming City seemed to be a bustling morning market, busier than usual.

"Why am I the only one?"

"It doesn't attract attention. We two look like a couple, so we won't attract attention."

"...Who is a couple with you!"

"hehe……"

"I'm just a ninth-rank guard, and I'm not good at martial arts." Zhao Ying was a little embarrassed.

This is the first time to perform a secret mission. The reward for a secret mission is three times that of a normal mission. Not everyone can take it. Logically speaking, I am not qualified to take such a secret mission.

"It's better not to use martial arts if you can." Chu Li sat on the horse, driving the horse lazily.

"What if there is danger?"

"Just one word - run!"

"Then what do you want me to do!"

"Pretend as a couple!"

"Senior Brother Chu—!" Zhao Ying glared at him dissatisfied.

"Junior Sister Zhao, you don't want to take this task?" Chu Li said with a smile: "I really don't want to take it, you can change someone."

Zhao Yingbai took a look at him and snorted, "Who said you don't want to pick it up!"

Chu Li said: "You won't hold grudges against me, will you?"

"Remember what you do?"

"I defeated Zhuo Feiyang, do you feel unbearable?"

"What nonsense, who can't bear it!" Zhao Yingjiao said angrily, "It's just a martial arts competition. Brother Zhuo is a martial arts genius, and he will surpass you sooner or later. Brother Chu, it's not good for you to be so proud!"

"Who said Zhuo Feiyang could surpass me?"

Zhao Ying made a small mouthful of cherry. She didn't want to expose Chuli's scars. It's too pitiful that she can't practice inner skills without foundation building, and she can't bear to say it.

Chu Li smiled and said, "Junior Sister Zhao likes Zhuo Feiyang very much, right?"

Zhao Yingbai didn't speak at all.

Chu Li shook his head and sighed: "Who made Zhuo Feiyang have a pleasing face, alas..., I just didn't expect Junior Sister Zhao to judge people by appearance like this."

"Senior Brother Chu, don't talk nonsense, okay, who judges people by appearance!" Zhao Ying said angrily, "I don't like Senior Brother Zhuo either!"

"Anyone can tell that you like Zhuo Feiyang!"

"Nonsense!" Zhao Yingjiao said angrily, "I'm just asking Brother Zhuo for advice, so I can improve my martial arts as soon as possible!"

"It's better to ask him for advice than to follow me!" Chu Li shook his head and smiled, "He only concentrates on practicing stupidly, and doesn't read books. His knowledge of martial arts is far behind!"

"Brother Chu, practicing martial arts requires practice, and reading books is useless!" Zhao Ying disagreed.

Chu Li shook his head and said, "Junior Sister Zhao, your idea is wrong."

The two of them rode through the bustling crowd while talking, attracting people's attention. Although the man is not handsome enough, he is more handsome, and the woman is beautiful and quite suitable.

Chu Li was not in a hurry, he sat on the horse and slowly appreciated the rich breath of life. He hadn't been in such a relaxed and comfortable state of mind for a long time. Since he had the Kurong Sutra and established the foundation, his heart was no longer depressed, and he was completely relaxed.

Zhao Ying snorted, "Brother Chu, what's wrong with me?"

Chu Li said: "You think that the martial arts you practice are unique, don't you know that it's just repeating the old ways of the predecessors. There are many practice notes in the Martial Arts Hall, which record your own practice experience. You don't read them, but you just explore by yourself..."

He shook his head and sighed, "It's a waste of time!"

"The experience of groping by myself is deeper." Zhao Ying snorted.

Chu Li shook his head and said: "According to what you said, there is no need for a master, as long as you practice slowly!"

"Hmph, I won't tell you!" Zhao Ying was at a loss for words.

Chu Li said: "Junior Sister Zhao, you are practicing Feiyan swordsmanship, right?"

"good."

"If you have time to practice, show me."

"Brother Chu, do you also know the Feiyan sword technique?"

"I understand a little, I have read a few practice notes."

"...Okay." Zhao Ying snorted, and wanted to see if he was bragging!
