Chapter 103 Ask Me to Be a Bodyguard
"I don't know what your name is?"
Zhou Zihao followed the person in charge of the hotel, thinking he should ask his name.
"My name is Li Li. Young Master Zhou can just call me Lao Li. Everyone here calls me that." Li Li didn't care what other people called him.
"You're older than me, so I'll have the guts to call you Brother Li." Zhou Zihao said with a smile.
"Well, I didn't expect that you are not only good at martial arts, but also quite easy-going." Li Li also felt that Zhou Zihao was very attractive to him.
Zhou Zihao knew that Li Li must have met a lot of people in the hotel, so he developed an art of treating people.
Soon, the two arrived at a living room in the hotel, where they saw a middle-aged man sitting there, drinking alone.
"Young man, my master is inside, you can go in alone." Li Li pointed to the house in front of him.
"Ok."
Zhou Zihao left Li Li and entered the living room alone.The living room is very richly decorated, not like the facade that ordinary nobles can have.
Now I am more and more curious about what kind of person the owner of this samurai hotel is, who runs such a luxurious place in such a remote town.
"Haha, today's strong man is very young. You must be the one brought by Li Li?"
As soon as Zhou Zihao came in, the people inside stood up, walked to Zhou Zihao's side, stared at Zhou Zihao and said.
Zhou Zihao looked at this middle-aged man, wearing a gray-black gown, he looked serious, but looking at his face, he gave people a sense of closeness, but it was precisely this that gave people a deep feeling.
This person can tell at a glance that he is usually a person who likes to win people's hearts, and he is a person with a very deep city. If it seems on the surface, he can make friends, but after going deeper, he may be calculated or used.
Zhou Zihao asked directly: "Hello, I wonder if there is anything wrong with calling me over?"
"I'm here, Hu Jiang, please come to the strong men." Hu Jiang didn't answer the question directly, but warmly invited Zhou Zihao to the table that had been prepared.
Zhou Zihao was not polite either, he was hungry after driving for a day, and wanted to find an inn, but all the inns here disappeared for some unknown reason, perhaps because he knew that if the battle ended here, they would lose everything. Businessmen are more interested in profit and life, and they will run away when they smell something different.
Seeing the table full of delicious dishes, Zhou Zihao's appetite whetted his appetite, his Adam's apple began to wriggle, and his stomach growled loudly.
"Come on, strong man! After drinking this glass of wine, we will become brothers." Hu Jiang picked up the two glasses of wine on the table, and then handed one to Zhou Zihao.
"Okay, do it."
Zhou Zihao took the wine glass, touched Hu Jiang, and drank the wine in one gulp.Although I know that there is no free lunch in this world, I should fill my stomach first, and then see if Hu Jiang has anything to ask him.
Hu Jiang finished drinking with him, then asked Zhou Zihao to sit down, and said, "Okay, that's really bold, come, let's chat while eating."
"Ah."
Zhou Zihao ate every meal, frantically sweeping the delicacies on the table, completely forgetting about Hu Jiang next to him.
When Hu Jiang saw him like this, he felt more at ease, because he felt that Zhou Zihao's behavior was relatively simple, and because he defeated the number one swordsman here at a young age, Hu Jiang valued Zhou Zihao even more.
Hu Jiang was thinking about that matter in his heart, and he was not in the mood to eat. Seeing Zhou Zihao eating like no one else, he was very envious.
"It's really good. I didn't expect such a delicious meal to be served in such a small place." Zhou Zihao praised while eating.
"Where did the strong man come from?" Hu Jiang asked.
"Philadelphia." Zhou Zihao didn't directly say that he came from Linzi. After all, Linzi is the capital city of Qi State, and it's far away from here.
When Hu Jiang heard that he was from Philadelphia, he regained his spirits and continued, "I heard that in Philadelphia, we just won a battle and defeated those arrogant allies."
Zhou Zihao swallowed a glass of wine in his mouth, and then said flickeringly: "I also heard that I was going to help, but our Qi country's weapons are really powerful, and we can easily keep the allied forces out of the city. Seeing that there was nothing to play with, I came out."
As soon as Hu Jiang heard what he said, he guessed that this Zhou Zihao must be an apprentice sent by a master to go down the mountain to practice, and the gaze he looked at Zhou Zihao became even more intriguing.
For someone like Zhou Zihao who has not yet finalized, it is the best time to win over.
Hu Jiang said to Zhou Zihao: "The strong man is called Zhou Zihao, so I, Hu, will call you Brother Zhou. I wonder what your plans are next?"
"I haven't made up my mind on what to do yet. Let's just take it one day at a time." He couldn't say that he was going to Chu State. If he did, he might be looked down upon by Hu Jiang, because Zhou Zihao knew that Hu Jiang liked knight-errant swordsmen more.
"If you don't dislike it, you can stay for a few more days." Hu Jiang said, sighing secretly.
Seeing his appearance, Zhou Zihao knew that something serious was about to come, so he asked directly: "It seems that brother Hu has something on his mind, can you tell me, brother?"
"Ah~"
Hu Jiang sighed, stood up, turned his back to Zhou Zihao on the side of the dining table, and said, "To be honest, my little girl Hu Xiaoying was robbed by a horse thief on her way back from other places a few days ago. On Baima Mountain, a hundred miles away from Yunqing Town.
These days I have been secretly looking for experts to go to Baima Mountain to represent the Hu family, asking them to understand me, Hu Jiang, and let my daughter go, no matter how much money I have to pay, as long as my daughter can return safely. "
Zhou Zihao looked at him and said with emotion, 'White Horse Mountain', 'Horse Thief', 'Daughter', it seems that the story is not simple, and things are also very difficult.
"Then after so many days, has anyone from Baima Mountain come into contact with it?" Zhou Zihao asked.
Hu Jiang said: "The day before yesterday, people from Baima Mountain sent a letter saying that they wanted the Hu family to find someone to send 5000 taels of silver to the mountain, but there should not be too many people sending the silver, and the agreement was at the foot of Baima Mountain."
Zhou Zihao was puzzled when he heard this, isn't this simply "kidnapping"?Just go to someone directly, why bother to go to someone with high martial arts.
Seeing Zhou Zihao's expression, Hu Jiang hurriedly explained: "This is not a simple matter, because Baimashan has made an appointment to send money to replace people twice, but every time the money is given, it will be robbed halfway. If you can’t walk to the foot of Baima Mountain as you wish, the horse thieves at Baima Mountain will naturally not admit that it was among them who robbed it.”
"Isn't this too shameless? Then you lost 1 taels, and no one has even seen it yet." Zhou Zihao sighed.
"That's right, so I decided to find someone with strong martial arts skills to guard my money this time, as long as it can be sent to the foot of Baima Mountain. I don't know if Zhou Zhuangshi can make a move," Hu Jiang asked in a pleading tone.
Just when Zhou Zihao was considering whether to go or not, the system suddenly prompted: "Take this task, and the reward will be generous."
