Chapter 903: I'll buy you some melon seeds!

~8 min read 1,408 words

Jiangnan, on a certain official road.

Zhang Cheng, who came flying, was like a gale blowing past, instantly stirring up dust.

When people looked ahead in astonishment, they were stunned on the spot.

After galloping for a long time, Zhang Cheng felt something was wrong, because he seemed to have forgotten how to stop.

Activating internal energy, Zhang Cheng leaped up violently and then planted his feet on the ground, carving out a deep pit.

Before long, when Zhang Cheng stopped, he was stunned on the spot: "No, where did I run to? Is this still Qixia Town?"

However, just as Zhang Cheng was thinking, he saw a tea stall on the official road in the distance.

Stepping forward and sitting down, Zhang Cheng ordered a pot of tea and sat down to rest.

After all, having run for so long without even knowing where he was, Zhang Cheng simply didn't want to ask; after all, all roads lead to Qixia, so he could just turn around and run back!

However, not long after Zhang Cheng sat down, a roar came from the distance: "Evil thief, we have been chasing you for a long time, and finally caught you! Surrender and come back to the yamen with us!"

"Hmm?"

Turning his head in suspicion, Zhang Cheng thought they were calling him and immediately squinted his eyes.

But seeing a group of people surrounding a certain burly man, he breathed a sigh of relief, because they weren't looking for him.

"Wait, why do I associate 'evil thief' with myself? Could it be that I really haven't done anything good?"

Speaking in a daze, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but rub his chin.

But just as the group rushed up, the burly man used a pair of iron fists, striking with great momentum, and actually knocked down the people chasing him.

Looking at this scene in surprise, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but squint his eyes: "Some level, but not fast enough, and not ruthless enough!"

"Hmph, want to catch me? Who do you think you are!"

Walking swaggeringly toward the outside, the burly man became arrogant.

But just as he prepared to silence the witnesses, a roar came from the distance: "How bold, daring to kill in broad daylight, simply not putting me, Flying Bat, in your eyes!"

"Blind man?"

Turning his head, Zhang Cheng looked at Ke Zhen'e, who appeared like a large bat, and immediately picked up the teapot, intending to sneak away.

Because encountering Ke Zhen'e, Zhang Cheng really had no way to argue.

After all, if others said he was bad, Zhang Cheng could refute, but if Ke Zhen'e said it, he would only think about where he hadn't "behaved" well! And that he had been discovered!

"Eh? This smell?"

Sniffing his nose, Ke Zhen'e immediately pointed at Zhang Cheng and roared: "Boy, stop, we meet again!"

"Blind man, don't look for trouble, I'm just passing by for tea!"

Hearing Ke Zhen'e's words, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but scold him.

"The matter last time, the old man just wanted to thank you, why be so nervous!"

Speaking to Zhang Cheng, Ke Zhen'e laughed.

Hearing Ke Zhen'e say this, Zhang Cheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief, because he was still afraid Ke Zhen'e would trouble him!

Encountering the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan, Zhang Cheng really felt like a tiger biting a hedgehog—no way to start.

After all, if you kill them, you don't stand on the side of reason; if you don't kill them, they are annoying.

Zhang Cheng finally understood those who wanted to kill him but couldn't beat him; it was truly a feeling of powerlessness!

"Hmm? This pretty boy knows you too? Just right to take as a hostage!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng beside him, the burly man sneered coldly.

Hearing the burly man's words, Ke Zhen'e hurriedly shouted: "Don't!"

"Too late!"

Flying to Zhang Cheng's side, the burly man immediately smashed a fist down fiercely.

But just at this moment, Zhang Cheng looked at the fist appearing on his cheek and said: "Hmm?"

"What?"

Watching his full-strength strike unable to shake him, the burly man was dumbfounded.

"Hey, the old man wanted to say, you can't beat him!"

Gazing at the burly man, Ke Zhen'e couldn't help but complain.

"Are you sick?"

Turning his head while taking the punch, Zhang Cheng questioned with suspicion.

"Hmph, I started practicing martial arts at ten, thirty years to this day, with a body of hard training that is indestructible. I don't believe..."

Just as the burly man was speaking, Zhang Cheng raised a fist and smashed it into his stomach.

"Pfft!"

Fresh blood sprayed from his mouth, and the burly man was stunned.

Because his hard training seemed like paper in front of Zhang Cheng's fist.

"What did you just say?"

Looking at the burly man with suspicion, Zhang Cheng grabbed his hair and squinted his eyes.

"Spare me, spare me!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in fear, the burly man was already a bit flustered.

But hearing his words, Zhang Cheng smashed a fist into his stomach with a backhand.

"Pfft!"

His body bent like a cooked lobster, and he instantly spat out a large mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.

"Hard training? In this day and age, who still practices this stuff? Real experts all have natural divine strength!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Cheng rolled up his sleeves to show off his muscles.

"This person is suspected of a massacre case, the old man will take him back, boy!"

Coming to Zhang Cheng, Ke Zhen'e immediately spoke up.

Hearing Ke Zhen'e say this, Zhang Cheng hurriedly said: "Trouble, trouble!"

"By the way, after this meeting, we are leaving Jiangnan! See you in the Jianghu!"

Speaking to Zhang Cheng, Ke Zhen'e laughed.

"Leaving Jiangnan, where is Hero Ke going?"

Asking Ke Zhen'e, Zhang Cheng felt happy in his heart, because the blind man leaving was truly a good thing!

After all, not encountering him in Jiangnan meant not having to deal with trouble!

"We, the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan, lost a bet with Qiu Chuji! We are just about to search the north and south of the river to find the descendants of the Guo family!"

Speaking to Zhang Cheng, Ke Zhen'e explained.

Hearing that the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan were going to find Guo Jing, Zhang Cheng said: "Since that's the case, why not go north? You'll definitely meet him!"

"Go north?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with suspicion, Ke Zhen'e became curious.

"Yes, go north, maybe there will be an unexpected surprise. By the way, I'll buy you some melon seeds!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Cheng hurriedly said: "Waiter, bring five catties of melon seeds, take them for Hero Ke, for his entertainment on the road!"

Holding the melon seeds in his hand, Ke Zhen'e was truly dumbfounded, because he didn't understand why Zhang Cheng wanted to give him this.

"Hero Ke, go slowly, go north, don't look back, trust me! This is the first time in my life I've told the truth!"

Watching Ke Zhen'e leave, Zhang Cheng rubbed his hands and said: "Hehe, Bai... pfft, the blind fool is gone!"

Thinking that there would be no more Ke Zhen'e and the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan in Jiangnan, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but be happy.

But just as Zhang Cheng prepared to leave, the stall owner blocked him: "Guest, you haven't paid yet!"

"Money? Do you think I look like someone who brings money when going out?"

Looking at the shop assistant beside him, Zhang Cheng immediately smashed a piece of silver on the table: "I only have this!"

Saying this, Zhang Cheng hummed a tune and left, appearing exceptionally happy.

Usually when he went out, he didn't rob people, so when had he ever paid voluntarily? Now that he heard Ke Zhen'e was leaving, he even paid money. You tell me how kind he is!

Watching Zhang Cheng leave in shock, the shop assistant looked at the silver on the table and hesitated for a long time.

Because he really didn't give money, he gave silver!

"Wait, where did I come from just now?"

Standing at the crossroads of the official road, Zhang Cheng fell into doubt.

Because he had actually forgotten the way back; this was finished.

Taking out a copper coin, Zhang Cheng threw it out and walked swaggeringly toward the south.
