C67 Meeting an Old Friend

The business in Wanxiang Building was still very good. Duan Tianya went upstairs and asked a familiar guest about Hu Meng, but no one knew where he was going.

Duan Tianya asked for a jar of wine, a roast goose, a roast chicken, a jin of beef, and a braised carp. After eating his fill, he walked out of the door and found a beggar.

The beggar's hair and face were unkempt, his clothes were ragged, and he held a dirty mantou in his hand. It must be an objective person who threw it away.

Duan Tianya took out a silver ingot and threw it to him. The beggar knelt down gratefully and kept kowtowing.

Duan Tianya mounted his horse and ran away without looking back. He did not want to see a person become a beggar. If one day he was forced to become a beggar, he would rather die.

Although the horse was lazily walking under the scorching sun, the journey to Tianya Wine House wasn't very close. He was afraid that it would take some time for him to walk like this.

After arriving at a short grass patch, Duan Tianya decided to rest for a while. He took out the meat he had bought in the Wanxiang Building and was about to eat it when he found a person running towards him in front of him. Behind him was a group of people with knives chasing after him.

Before the person who was being chased reached Duan Tianya, he accidentally fell to the ground. The person behind him was about to catch up, and if he caught up, he would be chopped into meat paste.

Duan Tianya picked up his long sword and jumped forward. He waved his sword and cut off one of the men's hair from his scalp. Everyone looked at him and knew that he had met a powerful warrior. They knew that they were no match for him, so they ran away in panic.

Duan Tianya carefully looked at the man who was being chased. His clothes were in a mess. Blood could be seen where the tree branches had cut through. His hair was messy, and his face was covered in dirt. It was impossible to see his face clearly. He looked like a dog that had lost its family.

Duan Tianya carefully looked at this person's face. This person seemed to be avoiding him. He lowered his head and did not want to look at him.

After looking at him for a while, Duan Tianya suddenly cried out in surprise. "Big Brother Hu! Why is it you?"

This person saw that someone had recognized him, so he could only raise his head and reply with a face full of shame, "Duan, how have you been?"

Looking at the current Hu Meng, Duan Tianya still couldn't believe it in his heart. Once upon a time, that Hu Meng was so heroic and forthright. What exactly had happened that made him look like this?

Hu Meng stood up and said with a red face. "I'm sorry for making you laugh. "

Duan Tianya asked with a serious face, "Didn't Brother Hu go to do business? How did he become like this?"

Hu Meng let out a long sigh and said, "It's a long story!"

Duan Tianya led Hu Meng to a nearby inn, washed up, and changed into a new set of clothes. He looked like a brand new person.

After setting up a table of dishes and wine, the two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time. They sat together and finished several bowls of wine. At this time, Duan Tianya continued to ask, "Who are they? Why are they chasing after you?"

Hu Meng put down the wine bowl and sighed, "When I was in Wanxiang Building, I met a few people from the pugilistic world. They said that they went to Lingnan to do some business. After that, they didn't have a good time, so they decided to go to Liaodong. Who would have thought that they would encounter the Life Stealing Silver Hook?"

Duan Tianya's brows tightened, and he said: "The Life Stealing Silver Hook, one of the two heroes of Hebei. "

Hu Meng said: "That's right. Rumors in the Jianghu say that I killed Golden Grand Guardian. That's why he wanted to kill me to prove that he is stronger than Golden Grand Guardian. "

Duan Tianya said, "Didn't you practice the knife technique according to the knife manual I gave you?"

Hu Meng said, embarrassed. "Speaking of which, I am ashamed. I have been drinking with these people all day, so I don't have time to practice the knife technique. Now that I think about it, the sins of the heavens can still be brought back to life, but the sins brought upon themselves can't be left alive! " After saying that, he drank two bowls in a row.

Duan Tianya also drank a bowl of wine and asked, "Brother Hu, do you have any plans?"

Hu Meng thought for a moment and replied, "I don't want to be famous in the martial arts world. That is not suitable for me. I better find a place to farm and fish and live a normal life. "

Duan Tianya heard it and said, "Since that's the case, I plan to go somewhere. There's no one to drink with on the way. If you dare, please come with me, Brother Hu. "

Hu Meng hurriedly replied, "What is Duan saying? It is what I wish for. "

The next morning, Duan Tianya bought another horse. The two of them packed up and left.

The journey was not lonely. The two of them were like old friends, drinking and having a heart-to-heart talk. There was nothing they could not talk about. It was just that the two horses were suffering. They had to carry several large jugs of wine wherever they went.

After walking and stopping for a while, they finally arrived at Tianya Wine House. This place was well managed by Zhang San. Not only was the shop renovated, but it was also under the name of the winery.

There was an endless stream of people who came here to drink. They all wanted to try the wine that Zhang San had brewed.

Duan Tianya had just stepped in when Zhang San, who was delivering wine, happened to see him. He shouted happily, "Mr Duan, when did you come back?"

Duan Tianya smiled and said, "I came to visit Auntie. "

Zhang San hurriedly said, "My mother also talks about you all day long!" After saying that, he shouted at a woman who was drinking, "Yu Cui, quickly come and greet Mr Duan. "

Yu Cui hurriedly walked over and gave a deep bow, "Luo Yu Cui greets Mr Duan here. I often heard Zhang San mention it, and only today did we meet again. " There was no lack of courtesy in his words.

Duan Tianya said with a smile, "Looking at Miss Yu Cui's words, she doesn't seem like an ordinary girl. "

Yu Cui said, "Looking at Mr Duan's attire, he doesn't look like an ordinary person from the pugilistic world either. "

Duan Tianya smiled and said, "It is indeed a mouth with sharp teeth. "

Zhang San saw the situation and said, "Yucui is the daughter of the Eight Immortal Market's Lo Changfeng, Hero Luo. Miss Yucui has a kind heart. She usually comes to the pub to help me arrange things. "

Duan Tianya cupped his fists and said, "Thank you for your help. " Then he asked, "You are busy introducing me. It can't be that you have nothing better to do than to come and help, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Luo Yucui, who had a sharp tongue a moment ago, blushed. Zhang San hurriedly said, "I won't hide it from Mr Duan. I have a crush on Miss Yucui, and Miss Yucui doesn't mind my background either. It's just that I'm not a person of the Jianghu, so I can't convince Hero Luo. "

Duan Tianya asked, "Is there no other way?"

At this moment, Luo Yucui felt a little awkward. "Yes, there is. However, it's very difficult. It's just that there's a matchmaker who can defeat my father in ten moves!"

Duan Tianya nodded and did not say anything. Luo Yucui continued, "It's easy to say, but difficult to do. My father has practiced martial arts for dozens of years. Who said he could defeat him in ten moves?"

Duan Tianya said, "Leave this to me. I will go and propose marriage in a few days. "

Luo Yucui blinked, as if the person in front of her was talking nonsense.

Then Duan Tianya said, "I will introduce a friend to you. " After saying that, he pulled Hu Meng over and said, "Hu Meng, one of my big brothers. "
