Thirteen days later, no matter how much the people from the Mu Estate tried to persuade him to stay, Hong Tian Xiao did not dare to stay any longer. He bid farewell to Mao Shi Ba and the people from the Mu Estate. Although Mao Shi Ba didn't know why Hong Tian Xiao was so determined to leave, he didn't dare to say anything and just followed closely behind.
After Hong Tian Xiao and Mao Shi Ba disappeared, Mu Jianping suddenly felt as if something had dropped from his heart, his entire being in a daze. Prince Mu and Liu Dahong saw this and naturally knew what was going on. They smiled at each other and made up their minds.
After Hong Mao said goodbye to the people from the Mu Estate, they went to a small tavern in the western part of the city. Mao Shi Ba ordered wine and food. As the two of them were drinking, they suddenly saw two people walk in from outside the tavern, one old and one young. The old man was about ninety years old, and the young one was only eleven or twelve years old. Both of them wore the clothes of eunuchs in the palace. Hong Tian Xiao knew that these two must be Hai Dafu and Xiao Guizi. He secretly felt lucky. If he hadn't left early to avoid Mu Jianping, he would have missed them.
Hai Dafu's face was sallow, his back was bent, and he couldn't stop coughing. He seemed to be seriously ill. Lil Guizi supported him and slowly walked to the table to sit down. Hai Dafu didn't even look outside and shouted in a sharp voice,"Quickly bring the wine!" The bartender hurriedly brought the wine over. Lil Guizi reached out to take it, then took out a crystal clear wine glass from her bosom and filled it to the brim.
Hai Dafu took out a paper bag from his side and opened it. He carefully picked a little with his little fingernail and dissolved it in the wine. Then, he put the medicine bag back into his pocket and picked up the wine glass to slowly drink. After a moment, his entire body suddenly convulsed and he trembled non-stop. The bartender panicked and thought that Hai Dafu was sick. He hurriedly asked,"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Little Guizi rolled his eyes and shouted,"Go away, why are you so long-winded?”The bartender seemed to know the identity of the two and didn't dare to provoke them. He bowed and smiled apologetically as he walked away. However, he kept peeking over as if he was worried that something would happen to Hai Dafu.
Hai Dafu held the table with both hands, his teeth chattering. The more he shook, the more violently it shook. After a while, even the table started shaking, and the chopsticks on the table fell to the ground.
Xiao Guizi panicked and hurriedly said,"Eunuch, can you take another dose?”As she spoke, she reached into his arms and took out the medicine packet, preparing to open it. Hai Dafu suddenly screamed,"No…No…Don't…!"”His expression was urgent, but he didn't dare to say anything. When Little Guizi heard this, he held the medicine bag and didn't dare to open it.
At this moment, footsteps sounded from the entrance of the shop. Seven burly men walked in. They were all topless and wore cowhide pants. Their braids were coiled up on their heads. Their bodies were greasy and shiny, as if they were covered in grease from head to toe. The seven of them were all muscular and had a mustache on their chest. When they stretched out their hands, they were all as thick as palms and fingers. The seven of them sat at two tables and shouted,"Quickly bring the wine, beef and chicken, the sooner the better!”
The bartender immediately knew that he was someone difficult to deal with. He hurriedly ran over and replied,"Yes, sir! Yes!" Then, she quickly put down her chopsticks and asked,"What would you like to eat?" "Are you deaf?" A burly man said angrily.”Another big man suddenly reached out and grabbed the bartender's back. He turned his arm and lifted him up. The bartender had never seen such a scene before. He couldn't help but dance around and scream in fear. The seven men laughed out loud. After laughing, the man suddenly swung his hand and threw the bartender out of the shop. With a bang, the bartender fell heavily to the ground. He felt as if he had split into a few pieces and shouted,"Aiyo! Oh my god!" The burly men laughed in unison again.
Hong Tian Xiao knew that these seven people were wrestling warriors from Manzhou and were some Buku from Prince Zheng's manor. If he didn't get into a conflict with these seven people, he naturally wouldn't be able to attract Hai Dafu's attention and he wouldn't be able to follow Hai Dafu into the palace. Thus, Hong Tian Xiao whispered a few words into Mao Shi Ba's ear.
Just as the bartender limped to get the wine, Mao Shi Ba suddenly stood up and scolded loudly,""F * ck, you only know some f * cking superficial martial arts, and you're already showing off here. What's the point of bullying a bartender? If you have the ability, then fight with me.”
These seven people were none other than Bu Ku from the Zheng Estate. They had always been used to flaunting their might in the West District. Everyone in the West District had tolerated them a little, and no one had ever scolded them in front of them. Mao Shi Ba's voice had just faded when the seven people were furious. One of the men glared at Mao Shi Ba: "Bastard, did you say that?"
Mao Shi Ba didn't say anything more when he heard the man curse. He picked up the wine pot and threw it at his face. The big man stretched out his hand to block, but Mao Shi Ba had used his inner strength in the throw. With a " ha la ", the wine pot hit his arm. The big man's arm was in pain and he cried out. Seeing this, the other man pounced over and Mao Shi Ba kicked him. Manchurians rarely used their legs when wrestling. The kick was so fast that the burly man couldn't dodge it. It hit him in the abdomen and he flew out immediately. He fell on another table and smashed it into pieces.
The other five men cursed at him as they charged over. Mao Shi Ba was nimble, using the grappling technique Hong Tian Xiao had taught him, he knocked down four in an instant. The other man leaned over and took Mao Shi Ba's palm with his shoulder. He grabbed Mao Shi Ba's back and lifted him up, preparing to smash his head against the stone steps. Mao Shi Ba's legs connected, and with two " pu pu " sounds, they both landed on the burly man's chest. His mouth opened wide, and blood spurted out. His hands immediately loosened.
Mao Shi Ba followed the man's fall and kicked his chest. He swung his palms and hit the back of the first man who had been hit by the flagon. With a few cracking sounds, the man broke a few ribs and lay limply on the table.
Mao Shi Ba's movements were like rabbits leaping up and birds falling down, extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, all seven men were heavily injured and fell to the ground.
After Mao Shi Ba taught the Bukus a lesson, he clapped his hands and walked out of the door. He only took two steps when he saw Hai Dafu bending over at the door. Mao Shi Ba was shocked. He didn't expect the eunuch to be so skilled. Remembering Hong Tian Xiao's words, he used all his strength to push the eunuch's right arm away. Unexpectedly, just as his palm touched his shoulder, Mao Shi Ba felt his entire body shake. He staggered and fell a few steps to the side before he could steady himself. He was shocked and thought that the young master was right. Hai Dafu was really a person who hid his strength. When he looked at Hai Dafu again, he saw him bending his back and coughing non-stop, as if he didn't know what had just happened. Actually, Hai Dafu was also secretly shocked. He didn't expect this person to only fall a few steps before standing up. It was obvious that his martial arts were extraordinary.
