I Have A Seal Of Two Realms

Chapter 257 Mother Hu Was Kidnapped

After parting ways with You Che and Du Huanzhen on the official road, they quickly returned to Tonglin County.

Lu Zheng returned to his daily routine.

I practice daily in the morning, and at noon I either go to see Lin Wan or Shen Ying. In the afternoon I either play chess at Taohuaping to enjoy the cool air, or I help with diagnosis and treatment at Renxintang. Sometimes I have dinner together at Liu's house, and sometimes I go back to modern times to pick up Lin Wan. Have a meal.

It gets even busier in the evening...

What's more, sometimes you will be interrupted by other things, such as...

"Master, General Xin invites you to go to the Chenghuang Temple for a drink tonight!"

"walk!"

After a drink and a sword show, Lu Zheng and Hu Zhou came out of the City God's Temple together.

"You still go to work on the footpath in the morning?" Lu Zheng asked.

Hu Zhou nodded, "Yes!"

Since Hu Zhou became a disciple, Lu Zheng and Liu Qingyan have said several times that they let Hu Zhou either work in the sugar factory or help in Renxintang, but Hu Zhou was unwilling and wanted to make money based on his own ability.

Because Hu Zhou's cultivation level was still low at that time, being a porter was considered a kind of heavy-bearing training, so Lu Zheng did not stop him. He and Liu Qingyan only sent some food, money and food to their mother and son from time to time.

Therefore, Hu Zhou's mother and son lived a pretty good life. They changed their residence and had enough food and clothing. However, they were not rich at all.

"With your current level of cultivation, being a porter is of no use anymore. Instead, you have to hide and restrain yourself." Lu Zheng said, "And you can't always be a porter, right?"

Hu Zhou helps out at Renxintang, and Liu Qingyan teaches him how to read and write whenever she is free. Now he has learned several hundred common words, which is enough for daily reading.

Moreover, Lu Zheng often told some short stories about how to deal with people and how to treat people when he was in the clinic at Renxintang. Although Hu Zhou had a straightforward temper, he was no longer as brainless as before.

So Hu Zhou is actually capable of doing other things.

But Hu Zhou seemed unwilling.

"I think it's good. I work and talk with the porters. There are not so many twists and turns. It's quite relaxing." Hu Zhou said.

"But since you're a porter, it's not convenient for your mother to say goodbye to you." Lu Zheng said helplessly.

This is what Liu Qingyan told him, saying that Hu's mother had asked Liu Qingyan to help change Hu Zhou's job.

Now that Hu Zhou Martial Dao was successful and literate, Hu's mother did not want to find him a wife according to the standards of a porter.

"Promise!" Hu Zhou was suddenly shocked, "My mother wants to propose to me?"

"No, no! I don't want to get married, and I don't want those women with loud voices!" Hu Zhou waved his hands hurriedly.

"That's why your mother wants you to change jobs. When you change jobs, she can find you some white, tender and beautiful little ladies!" Lu Zheng said seductively.

Hu Zhou blinked, "Like the girl from Mr. Liu's house in the alley?"

"Who is that?" Lu Zheng blinked.

Hu Zhou said, "The daughter of an old scholar is very nice. She even gave me food when I came home!"

Lu Zheng turned around in shock, "Why do people give you food?"

"I helped her fight off a few scoundrels who provoked her before," Hu Zhou said, "but I only gave them away once, but I haven't given them away since."

Lu Zheng said seductively, "Then do you want to marry such a girl?"

"I don't want to!" Hu Zhou shook his head decisively.

"Huh?" Lu Zheng looked confused again, "Why?"

"This kind of girl has more troubles. She definitely doesn't let me practice swordsmanship, and she doesn't let me drink. I heard it from my friends." Hu Zhou said, "And in some of the little stories you told me, Master, Aren’t there a lot of women who are holding us back?”

Gu Feng Lu Zheng:?0?6?6?7?0?6

"Is the point of the stories I told you that the mother-in-law is holding you back?"

Hu Zhou shrank his neck and stopped talking, but he obviously had no intention of agreeing to get married.

Lu Zheng curled his lips, but did not persuade him any further.

Hu Zhou is not yet sixteen years old, which is the time of rebellion in adolescence, and he is not in a hurry to get married and start a family.

I simply left him alone for a while, but I didn't give up on his teachings anyway, and continued to do so subtly.

In the next few days, Lu Zheng continued to work on both sides, and Hu Zhou went to the porters team to work in the morning, helped in Renxintang in the afternoon, and went to Chenghuang Temple to practice swordsmanship in the evening.

It has only been a few peaceful days...

"Master!"

Hu Zhou hurried to Lu Zheng's house, his face pale.

"What's wrong?"

"I...my mother...my mother was kidnapped!" Hu Zhou said with trembling lips.

"What?" Lu Zheng was surprised, "What's going on? Your mother stayed at home well, why was she kidnapped?"

Hu Zhou took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Lu Zheng tremblingly, with hatred in his tone, "It's those gangsters. They asked me to take ten guan of money to Yingzui Cliff in Shuanggou Mountain outside the city, otherwise I’m going to kill my mother.”

"E, I want to go by myself this time, but I'm worried that my strength is limited. If they are really cruel, I may not be able to save my mother." Hu Zhou said.

"Which gang of rogues?" Lu Zheng took the letter and glanced at it. The content inside was the same as what Hu Zhou said. He asked with some confusion, "Isn't it the gang of rogues you helped your neighbors drive away?" Did they kidnap your mother for this?"

It stands to reason that the gangsters in the city would make big mistakes and keep making small mistakes. They would eat a king's meal, collect a protection fee, and commit petty theft, but that is definitely not the right thing to do in a life-threatening business.

Kidnapping for ransom?

This crime is not a small one. If caught by the government, the crime of being exiled to the army will definitely be inevitable. How dare a gangster do it?

"They collected protection money a few days ago and even charged it to my porters. They even said they knew some condor or some kind of sword king."

Hu Zhou said, "Then I knocked them all down and beat them up together with a few guys from the porter team."

Lu Zheng frowned, "So these gangsters know where you live and who you are?"

"But...is it possible?"

Lu Zheng shook his head, "Let's discuss these issues later. Rescue your mother first. Let's go. I'll go with you."

Hu Zhou nodded repeatedly.

So Lu Zheng gave orders to Li Bo, and the two of them left the city together.

It was noon. Hu Zhou had finished work in the morning. When he came home at noon, he found that Hu's mother had been kidnapped. He came to see Lu Zheng with the letter, so it was only two quarters of noon.

The two of them hurried all the way and soon arrived at Shuanggou Mountain. They went up the mountain and came to Yingzui Cliff.

Yingzui Cliff is a cliff, and there is another cliff three feet away on the opposite side, called Elephant Head Cliff. The two cliffs are hollow, and there are tens of feet of cliffs below.

The two came to Yingzui Cliff, and then they discovered that about ten people from each other were on the opposite side of Elephant Head Cliff, and then...

Lu Zheng's eyes were sharp, and Hu Zhou's eyes were red and furious!

Because Hu's mother was lying on the ground with her hands tied behind her back, and there were several bruises on her face.
