Chapter 44
Chapter 44
"That's not true,"

Long Wei shook her head:
"Cultivation is actually the same as other professions. There are high and low talents, and there are gaps in strength,"

"Li Ming and I are both fourth-level warriors. Although they are not top-notch, in terms of the normal fighting world, they are almost invincible, so they are also called 'unrestricted free fighters',"

"If you reach this level, among these hundred people, you will be considered at least above average."

"As for the king of fighting..."

"There may not be many people like Long Yan or even higher level people in Nanling City, but there must be them."

"What about Nanling?"

"Then even I don't know,"

Long Wei smiled wryly:

"China's 5000-year history, ancient martial arts lasted at least half of the time. If you want to ask how many warriors or forces are still inherited, no one can tell."

Ren Ping nodded upon hearing this.

Ancient martial arts have a huge span, both in terms of time and space.

Even if the system does not have clear statistics, just select some important ones and record them briefly.

Even so, the abundance of information is astonishing.

It is extremely difficult for someone like Long Wei to get a rough idea of ​​the general situation in a certain place.

However, from the system records, he knew something different.

In Nanling, ancient martial arts masters, especially those engaged in dark and secret industries, are very taboo about revealing their identities.

Li Ming is an example.

The so-called crime of being pregnant!
They think they have mastered the secrets that others don't know, and they are worried, and they inevitably want to hide their clumsiness.

But in China as a whole, it seems a bit ridiculous.

Although the ancient martial arts civilization has been silent for many years, there are inheritances in various places, and it is not absolutely ulterior.

And those who practice ancient martial arts are by no means the only hired killers like Li Ming...

"Don't worry too much. Warriors are very rare after all. I dare say that it is absolutely rare for you to meet fourth-tier warriors like you."

Seeing Ren Ping frowning slightly, thinking that he was troubling himself, Long Wei couldn't help but feel relieved:

"And...if you need it, I have a way to help you."

Ren Ping was taken aback: "What way?"

"Actually, I came today for another purpose, which is to make another deal with you."

"trade?"

He didn't understand even more.

Long Wei looked mysterious, paused, and smiled slightly:
"I can be your bodyguard."

"What? Bodyguard?"

"Yes, personal bodyguard, the kind that keeps you safe with you,"

Long Wei said seriously:
"There are many warriors hidden in Nanling, and you are being targeted again. You might be in danger at some point,"

"With me here, at least I won't nearly die like last time,"

"I can protect you 24 hours a day."

"24 hours?"

Ren Ping repeated instinctively, but he hadn't fully reacted yet.

When will I be able to be a personal bodyguard again?

"Yes, 24 hours,"

"Believe it or not, warriors don't need much rest time every day, so they can do this,"

"Even when you are sleeping, I can always be with you!"

In a moment of excitement, Long Wei didn't notice the impropriety in her words.

His eyes were piercing, making his cheeks burn hot.

But Ren Ping couldn't listen anymore, with a bitter expression on his face:
"Miss Long, I don't just eat and sleep every day..."

Long Wei blushed, and only then did she realize:

"Don't worry, I won't pry into your personal privacy..."

"I know……"

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

After a long time, it gradually settled down.

Ren Ping also began to think about the feasibility of this matter.

As Long Wei said, he is being targeted now, and there is no telling when another Li Ming will appear.

When one's own strength is still insufficient, it is definitely the best choice to hire a warrior bodyguard to prevent problems before they happen.

The point is, it's not a good feeling to be stared at by such a beautiful woman day and night, who suddenly appears out of nowhere.

Moreover, in this way, he might not be able to hide his practice of ancient martial arts.

Now is not the time...

"Since it's a transaction, what's the condition?"

"There is no condition. If there is, let me follow you, especially when you identify some precious cultural relics."

After a brief moment of embarrassment, Long Wei quickly returned to normal.

When Ren Ping heard it, he thought of the Twelve Hidden Flower Gods.

And she once hid her identity and worked as an auctioneer.

This woman has an extraordinary background, but she is particularly fond of cultural relics and antiques. It is really puzzling.

However, it was inconvenient for him to ask more questions, so he thought about it:

"I don't need 24 hours a day. I can ask you to protect me when I need it, okay?"

"How do you know when you need it? Will others notify you in advance when there is danger?"

This is also...

"Well, under normal circumstances, I will keep a certain distance from you and will not show up,"

"Only when anomalies are found will they be followed closely, how?"

"You may not know that the sensory ability of warriors is several times better than that of ordinary people."

Long Wei showed her very friendly smile again.

Speaking of this, if you don't agree with it, you don't know how to flatter.

Ren Ping nodded.

After thinking about it for a while, I couldn't help but wonder:

"Miss Long, you don't seem to take advantage of this kind of transaction. Why?"

"Because...you are special,"

Long Wei had something else to say:
"To tell you the truth, I have learned about it in the past few days. Although I don't know why, your ability to identify antique relics seems to be exceptionally good, which I have never seen in my life."

"Just for this?"

Ren Ping smiled wryly:
"I thought that antiques and stuff were just playthings for people like you."

"You are wrong. Cultural relics and antiques are the essence of Chinese culture, and they have charms that ordinary people cannot imagine. Well... you may know it later."

"All right,"

Ren Ping didn't think deeply about Long Wei's words.

Anyway, this woman has always been mysterious.

On the contrary, he was like a little transparent in front of her. It seemed that no Mingquan Xiaotianlong or Qianlong's calligraphy could be hidden from her.

"Agreed?"

"Pleasant to work with."

After clapping their hands lightly, the two reached a second agreement after the last time at the police station.

Ren Ping's thoughts were racing, and he didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.

Long Wei was much more relaxed, with a smile all over her face.

After chatting for a while, his left ear moved:
"Okay, that's it for today, someone is here, oh, no-"

She smiled and responded quickly:
"Now that you're my employer, I'm going to find a place to work,"

"Goodbye."

With a sweet smile, Long Wei turned around and left the ward.

The fragrance left behind is like a noble, elegant, and somewhat playful flower fairy.

Ren Ping knew that from now on, she would be watching him silently from somewhere nearby, and he couldn't help feeling strange feelings in his heart.

What he didn't know was that Long Wei, who had just walked out of the ward, was also heartbeating rapidly and was enveloped in an inexplicable emotion.

In an instant, her elegance was gone, and she looked like an ordinary young girl.

Especially when she was thinking about the upcoming, mysterious, peculiar, and somewhat different job...

……

"Okay, Ren Ping, the world has been turned upside down by you! It's good for you, you can enjoy yourself here!"

Two minutes after Long Wei left, a familiar and resounding laugh sounded outside the ward.

Ren Ping heard Shen Yicheng's voice, smiled slightly, and quickly stood up to greet him:

"Brother Shen, you are here again."

There are not many people who know that Ren Ping is hospitalized here to recuperate, and Shen Yicheng is one of them.

In the past few days, he has come to visit several times.

In addition to helping to identify the Huashen Cup and saving people at the police station, the relationship between the two has naturally become much closer.

Shen Yicheng called Ren Ping by his first name, and Ren Ping respectfully called him "big brother" because he was more than ten years older than himself.

The two are like a pair of brothers with different surnames who love each other.

"Good boy, you did a great job! This time Shang Long Decoration was dealt with very hard by you!"

As soon as he entered the door, he threw away the fruit basket he brought, and Shen Yicheng lowered his voice, and put Ren Ping's shoulders on his shoulders to praise him again and again.

Ren Ping smiled slightly.

Shen Yicheng also knew the inside story about this matter, and there was no need to hide it, so he shared the latest news from Fang Li.

"What! My good fellow, Shang Long actually installed so many people in the security system?"

After hearing this, Shen Yicheng sighed repeatedly.

"That's right, just a little more, I'm afraid there may be some omissions."

"There are so many people, it can be seen that a lot of hard work has been spent, but it is also nonsense, haha! I was uprooted by you, brother!"

"It's also thanks to Brother Shen's contribution."

"What credit do I have, it's just helping to run errands,"

Shen Yicheng smiled:

"Okay, no kidding, I'm not here alone today, I have two guests with me."

As he spoke, he smiled mysteriously and led him out of the ward.

Ren Ping was slightly puzzled.

As soon as I went out, I saw two familiar figures walking slowly not far from the corridor, and I couldn't help but be surprised:
"Xinguan! Old Shen!"

It was Xin Ran and Hu Yitang who came.

Through Shen Yicheng, Ren Ping had already learned that it was Hu Yitang who rescued him at the last critical moment that night, and Long Wei helped him capture Li Ming.

Not only that, but in those few days, the two spent a lot of effort in seeking connections and relationships everywhere.

This level alone was enough to make him feel extremely grateful.

Immediately, he quickly took a few steps.

With a solemn expression, he bowed respectfully.

"The boy is rude. I haven't had the chance to thank you two in person these few days. Please forgive me."

Xin and Hu twisted their beards and smiled.

Although I felt I could bear it, I felt relieved to see him being so polite and quickly helped me up.

"Well, if I want to thank you, it's me and Mr. Hu who want to thank you. Without you risking your lives to protect me, what would have happened to that August Osmanthus Cup."

"Exactly, little friend Ren Ping, this time you have done great service for Jiang Ning - no, for the country!"

Ren Pinglian said he didn't dare, he was taken aback for a moment, and then realized:

"Mr. Hu, so... have you got the results of the appraisal?"

Hu Yitang and Xin Ran looked at each other, smiled and said nothing.

Shen Yicheng on the side quickly patted him on the shoulder, and lowered his voice:
"Okay, my own people, don't be polite first,"

"Mr. Hu and Director Xin are here this time to discuss important matters with you!"
