"Hero Qiao, are you tired? Do you want to take a rest?"

Lu Xiaoman sat at the stern of the boat, propped his chin with one hand, and asked Qiao Feng who was punting.

A few days ago, Qiao Feng's eyes had healed. He also recuperated in Shenhe Village for more than a month. He didn't know the current situation in Jianghu at all, so he wanted to go to Gusu City, thirty miles away, to find out some news; It's been a long time since I went out, and I couldn't be idle anymore, so the two hit it off and traveled together.

"I'm not tired." Qiao Feng turned around and smiled at her. "I usually travel all over the world and do everything myself. That's nothing."

Originally, Lu Xiaoman wanted to call in one or two more servants, but Qiao Feng was not used to being followed. People in the Jianghu are informal, and being served by others would make them feel uncomfortable, so she gave up.Anyway, they knew the way, and with Qiao Feng, the head of the beggar gang, escorting them, they didn't need to worry about anything along the way.

After entering the city, the sun was approaching noon, so the two found a restaurant and went straight to the second floor.

"Have you heard? Qiao Feng, the leader of the beggar gang, has been missing for nearly a month!"

As soon as they sat down, Lu Xiaoman heard a thin man at the table behind them say to his companion, she glanced at Qiao Feng, and he frowned as expected.

"No way? Isn't the beggar gang messed up?"

"It's not a mess," the man said again, "but my friends from the beggar gang revealed," he lowered his voice, pretending to be mysterious, "some people speculate that the leader of the Qiao gang has probably encountered an accident!"

"What...!" The man's companion looked surprised, "This...impossible! That's Gang Leader Qiao!"

"Well, there are unpredictable things in the sky, and people have misfortunes and blessings, who can say for sure."

The man pretended to sigh, and when he was about to drink from the wine glass, a big man sitting at the table next to him suddenly dropped the wine bowl, slammed the table and stood up.

"Fuck your mother's shit! Chief Qiao's martial arts are world-class, and he is proud and righteous, how can a coward like you be able to criticize him!"

Not bad, he seems to be a loyal fan of Qiao Feng, Lu Xiaoman drank his tea and gave him an appreciative glance.

The thin man was startled by the big man, and almost lost his grip on the wine glass. When he came back to his senses, he felt ashamed, and he put the glass down heavily in embarrassment, and stood up:

"What are you talking about! Who is a coward!"

"Whoever speaks loudly is the one!"

"You!" He choked with anger, "Who is boasting? No matter how powerful the leader of Qiao is, there are people beyond this man, and there is a sky beyond the sky. Can you guarantee that he will be invincible in the Jianghu? Not to mention, just our Jiangnan , there is a Mr. Murong Fu who is equal to the leader of Qiao Gang!"

He said, and sneered maliciously:

"My friend from the Beggar Clan said that a month ago some Beggar Clan disciples met the leader Qiao in Suzhou, and there was no news after that. In my opinion, the disappearance of North Qiaofeng might have something to do with Nan Murong!"

"How dare you slander Mr. Murong!" The big man rolled up his sleeves and was about to beat him up aggressively, "If you talk nonsense again, believe it or not, I'll beat you up!"

The skinny man shrank his head, still stuck his neck and shouted:

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid you won't succeed!"

The waiter and the man's companion hurriedly pulled them away, and after a while of jumping around, Lu Xiaoman and Qiao Feng took advantage of the chaos and left the restaurant.

When returning home, Qiao Feng was absent-minded all the time, Lu Xiaoman only said that he was worried about the beggar gang, and comforted him:

"Hero Qiao, don't worry, the beggar gang will not go into trouble without you as the leader, and the deputy leader and elders in charge."

Qiao Feng shook his head and let out a long sigh.

"I am in trouble this time, thanks to Brother Murong's generous help. I have been nagging at his house for several days, and I owe a favor, and now I am implicated in him and being criticized. I really feel uneasy."

"Those boring people like to take things out of context and copy what others say. They don't understand you and Mr. Murong at all. They just make wild guesses based on a little wind and grass. It's really boring."

Lu Xiaoman kicked the stones under his feet, ran up to Qiao Feng with one hand behind his back, and winked at him playfully:

"Hero Qiao, you don't have to worry about what those people said, I believe Mr. Murong won't care either."

She showed her hand holding a small flower behind her back, and held it up to Qiao Feng's eyes.

"This is for you, don't be unhappy."

Qiao Feng couldn't help laughing, "Miss Lu, I'm a big man, what do I want a flower for?"

"This is not an ordinary flower," Lu Xiaoman rolled his eyes, and said confidently, "When I saw it just now, I thought it was very different from other wild flowers. There are no other flowers to accompany it, and a solitary one stands there, isn't it very self-willed and unusual?"

She smiled and shook the flower in her hand, "Such a unique flower is perfect to match the outstanding Qiao Daxia!"

Qiao Feng couldn't help laughing at what she said, and felt that she was very understanding, and most of the depression in his heart subconsciously disappeared.

"So," Lu Xiaoman raised his eyebrows and looked at him with a smile on his face, "Hero Qiao, this is a gift I specially found for you, don't you want it?"

Qiao Feng had no choice but to take it, looked at her helplessly, shook his head and said:

"You."

He was holding the flower, he couldn't hold it in his hands all the time, and he was afraid of crushing it when he put it in the cuff, he was in a dilemma, Lu Xiaoman saw his embarrassment, and burst out laughing.

"Okay, for the sake of Qiao Daxia, you care so much about it, I'll give you another handkerchief by the way."

She pulled out a silk handkerchief, unfolded it in her hand, and signaled Qiao Feng to put the flowers on the handkerchief, then wrapped it carefully, and handed it back to him, "Now, put it away."

After such an episode, Qiao Feng seemed to be in a much better mood. After a while, he seemed to have considered it carefully, and said to Lu Xiaoman:

"Miss Lu, I think, I will bid farewell to brother Murong tomorrow. It's fine if I didn't know about it before. Now that I know the rumors in the world, how can I continue to implicate brother Murong for me."

He paused, and then said: "Besides, after being out for so long, it's time to go back to the Beggars' Gang."

Lu Xiaoman was noncommittal to his words, just pursed his lips and looked at him with a smile:

"Then Joe, don't forget me after you leave."

Qiao Feng was taken aback by her straightforward words, muttered for a while, then nodded with a blushing face:

"Miss Lu, you are pure in nature and treat me well. Naturally, I will miss you from time to time."

"That's good." She glanced at him with a smile, then lowered her head in embarrassment, playing with a strand of hair hanging by her ear, with a soft voice, "I will miss you, Qiao Daxia, too."

After Qiao Feng left the village, Lu Xiaoman's life was relatively leisurely. During this period of time, her disguise technique also showed initial results. Although she was still far behind A'Zhu, it was enough to fool ordinary people.

This morning, Lu Xiaoman was studying masks in his yard, when Murong Fu's maid suddenly came to invite her over, Lu Xiaoman responded with a smile on his face, but his heart was beating:

Could it be that seeing Qiao Feng left and preparing to settle the score with her?Still upset that she is eating and drinking here for free and want to drive her away?It's impossible to think about unspoken rules...

Thinking anxiously all the way, Lu Xiaoman followed the servant girl to Murong Fu's yard. He was sitting on a stone bench reading a book. When he saw them coming, he waved his hand casually, and the little servant girl went down.

"Young Master Murong."

Lu Xiaoman bowed to him, Murong Fu put the book aside, pointed to the stone bench opposite him, and said with a gentle expression:

"Don't be restrained, sit down."

Lu Xiaoman sat down feeling flustered, but when she glanced around, she saw a martial arts cheat book on the stone table in front of her, with the words "family handed down swordsmanship" written on it, her eyes widened suddenly.

Seeing this, Murong Fu smiled.

"Recently, I heard that you have learned some kung fu from Brother Qiao. Brother Qiao is the leader of the Beggar Clan, with profound internal skills and exquisite moves. I think you have learned a lot."

Lu Xiaoman's heart suddenly rose, Murong Fu was deep-minded and suspicious by nature, although he mentioned Qiao Feng, it didn't seem like he sincerely admired him at all, more like he was dissatisfied with her learning Qiao Feng's martial arts.

Sure enough, Murong Fu's next sentence was:

"Even so, you and Brother Qiao are not close or related after all. If you use his kung fu in the rivers and lakes in the future, I'm afraid people will criticize you."

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoman quickly echoed:

"Sir said yes."

Then she smiled shyly again, with a look of embarrassment, "I'm ashamed to say, although Qiao Daxia taught me well and taught me carefully, but Xiaoman is stupid by nature, and he hasn't even learned his superficiality. Acquiring a little bit of three-legged cat kung fu is really not considered elegant."

"Oh, really?"

Murong Fu smiled noncommittally, and pointed to the cheat book in front of her, "Since that's the case, I'll take this sword art book for you to learn."

"This... the Murong family's family-inherited swordsmanship, it's not suitable for me to learn?"

Lu Xiaoman hesitated for a moment, and asked cautiously, feeling even more confused about what he was thinking.

"No problem," Murong Fu put one hand on his lap and the other on the table, and lightly tapped the table with two fingers, "Although it is a family-inspired sword technique, it is only a little more subtle than ordinary sword techniques , compared to other martial arts of my Murong family, this school is most suitable for girls to practice."

That's right, the Murong family's unique skill is the shifting of stars, no matter how you think about it, it is impossible for him to teach that unique skill to outsiders, and this sword technique does not seem to be particularly important, but it doesn't matter if you learn it?Although I don't know what kind of style he is trying to teach her martial arts... Maybe he was stimulated by Qiao Feng...

"Thank you sir."

Thinking of this way, Lu Xiaoman decisively accepted the situation, anyway, he has too many skills to overwhelm him.

"Young Master's great virtue, Xiaoman has nothing to repay you, only by studying hard and practicing hard, can you live up to your kindness."

"Ah."

Murong Fu nodded with a smile, "I will stay in the village for a while, if you have any questions, you can come here every day to ask."
