Chapter 183 Deputy Hall Master Han

Chapter 183 Deputy Hall Master Han
Lush forest with lush green leaves.

Two century-old maple trees stand on both sides, with a brand new archway in the middle.

Eight stone pythons were circling around, their fangs hidden, looking lifelike, and their narrow eyes stared at everyone who came in and out from below.

Nanyuan has a strong army and abundant talents, and is not inferior to the two law enforcement teams under Di Baiying.

On the high hanging plaque in Shuangya Hall are engraved four large characters: "Snake Swallows Tiger Elephant", which seems to imply the ambition of the owner of this place.

Liu Rong sat on the guest chair, feeling a little reserved. He looked at the man who was playing with the sea pearl bracelet and said with a smile, "Famous pearls are produced in Haidong. It seems that Brother Han's trip to Qi was very fruitful."

"Do you like it, bro? Take two strings to play with when you leave."

"That's so embarrassing."

"What does it matter? You and I met when we were little, so we should share the good and the bad, the honor and the disgrace. Zhang dared to humiliate Brother Liu, no matter who is behind him, I will teach him a lesson this time!"

Han Chong was in his early fifties, with slightly gray hair. He wore a blue robe and was eight and a half feet tall. He had broad eyebrows and eyes, a square face, a wide mouth, and chubby cheeks. At first glance, he had the bold demeanor of a gang leader.

People in the world don’t judge people by their appearance, but a pleasing appearance is still a big plus.

Liu Rong was not too obsessed with revenge. Today he came to Heimu Cliff to collect his salary and happened to visit an old friend who had just returned from Jiaodong. He mentioned the incident by the way. Unexpectedly, Han Zhong immediately made arrangements to vent his brother's anger and no one could stop him.

"I'm afraid that the Seven Evils brothers will be too harsh, and it will be difficult to talk if Hall Master Di asks about it."

Han Zhong waved his hand and laughed, "It doesn't matter. If Di Baiying blames me, I have brothers to take care of it. I'm not afraid of him!"

Liu Rong saw that he did not show much respect for Di Baiying in his tone, so he thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "Last year, Shangguan Yun hosted a banquet at Qianhonglou. I remember he said during the banquet that Manager Yang loved Eastern Pearls very much and had asked someone to go to the East China Sea to buy them. I guess they were pearls like Brother Han's."

Han Zhong played with the bracelet, was silent for a moment, and looked at Liu Rong with a smile.

"Among the pearls I brought back, there are eight top-quality Dong pearls, the size of pigeon eggs, pure and flawless, and each one has its own flowing color. It would be a waste to string them together, so take them to give to Chief Steward Yang."

Liu Rong waved his hand and said, "How can I use such a precious thing as a favor?"

Han Zhong smiled and said, "You and I are brothers, there is no need to distinguish between us."

Liu Rong thought to himself that Han Zhong had not said anything definite, but he did not want to get too close to Yang Lianting. For him, if he could get the deputy leader of the Guardian Hall to join him, the merit he would gain in front of Yang Lianting would be much more important than offering eight pearls.

There were footsteps outside the door. According to the time, Huang Qiaoer and the others should be back.

Several disciples rushed into the hall, looking panicked: "My lord, something bad has happened."

Han Zhong said unhappily, "My Lord is fine, why are you so flustered?"

Several people knelt down in the hall and stopped talking.

Han Zhong then said, "What's the matter? Tell me slowly."

"The seven evil spirits were captured by Beiyuan, and they said they would be taken away for questioning."

.....................

Outside the Blood Crane Hall, seven people were tied up with iron chains at the foot of the stone steps, with rags stuffed in their mouths, and were watched by Meng Lianhuan and Qiu Pingan.

Xue Luohan and Liu Ruyan were sitting in the hall, and saw Zhang Yu directing two disciples to move the four pots of star-moon crabapple flowers under the corridor back into the hall. When moving the last pot of crabapple, the disciple tripped over the threshold, and with a "crash", porcelain pieces and dirt poured out.

Zhang Yu said helplessly: "Now it's good. Before we could start fighting and kick it to pieces, I broke it myself."

The disciple knelt down immediately and said with great fear and trepidation, "Please forgive me, sir. I did not mean to do that."

Zhang Yu waved his hand and said, "Don't kneel here, clean up the place and plant the crabapple tree in the backyard. Let's see if we can save it."

When the disciple saw that he was not blamed, he thanked her repeatedly and ran to the backyard carrying Haitang's body.

Liu Ruyan stood up and walked to Zhang Yu's side, looking solemn and said, "Nanyuan has many people and they are very powerful. If they come to attack us, I'm afraid we won't be able to defeat them. Should we send someone to inform Hall Master Di?"

Zhang Yu stood at the threshold, looked at the seven people in the courtyard, and chuckled, "Someone has gone to report it." "Who?"

"Who else besides Di Ying?"

Liu Ruyan was puzzled and asked, "Will he say anything that is beneficial to us?"

Zhang Yu shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter what he said."

Before the two could say more, a disciple came hurriedly to report that Deputy Hall Master Han of Canshe South Garden had arrived.

Liu Ruyan asked hurriedly: "How many people are here?"

"He's the only one."

Xue Luohan, Ji Bamao and others walked out of the hall, holding weapons in their hands and looked at Zhang Yu.

"Since he came alone, there is no need for Xuehe Beiyuan to have so many people to greet him. It would be embarrassing. You all wait here. I will go and meet him."

After Zhang Yu finished speaking, he walked through the courtyard and out of the gate.

Over the years, Tianlong and Dihu have been under the command of Di Baiying, and the remaining snakes are led by the deputy hall master. Only Xuehe Beiyuan is somewhat unloved, especially after the battle in the capital, the family's little wealth has been consumed, and it is almost facing the fate of being expelled.

From this place, we can see that compared with the tall stone archway in the South Garden, the North Garden only has two wooden doors.

"He hasn't come out yet, did he run away?"

Han Zhong stood under the sun, squinting his eyes, thinking in his mind, when he suddenly heard a creaking sound, and the wooden door was slowly pushed open. A handsome man wearing a yellow robe and a silver crown walked out, with a sword and a knife hanging on his waist.

"Judging from his attire, it should be him."

"This is too young."

"Is his martial arts really that high? He can easily defeat the Seven Evils."

It was the first time they met since he had just returned from the East China Sea.

Han Zhong asked coldly, "Are you Zhang Yu?"

Zhang Yu smiled and said, "So you are Han Zhong?"

"Young man, you should be polite when speaking. When it comes to the time of joining the sect, I am your elder."

Zhang Yu laughed loudly when he heard this: "Then you should call the pair of stone lions in the Dharma Guardian Hall your father and mother. No one entered the hall earlier than them."

Seeing that he spoke sharply and refused to give in at all, Han Chong knew that he was not an easy person to deal with.

"Where are my brothers? Where did you hide them? Why don't you release them immediately?"

Zhang Yu looked back and said with a smile, "The people are in the hall. They accidentally broke the rules of the church, and Hall Master Di asked me to take care of them."

Han Zhong said coldly, "The Seven Evils are from Nanyuan. It is not your turn to deal with them. Deputy Hall Master Zhang, if you know what is good for you, release them all and send them out with courtesy. I, Han, will not bother with you for the sake of our comrades."

Zhang Yu chuckled and said, "Then there's nothing to talk about."

"Call out all the useless people in Beiyuan. I'll cook them all up in one pot to save you the trouble."

Han Zhong sneered and pulled out a thick-backed broadsword. The blade was extremely dazzling under the sunlight.

"Young man, you've learned a few tricks, and you're so arrogant? Today, I'll teach you how to respect your elders!"

 Sorry, these two chapters are a bit watery, the state is not good, adjust as soon as possible, please be gentle
