After settling the matters in the court, Zhu Houzhao set off for his destination, Hengyang City.
Behind Zhu Houzhao, besides Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun, there was also Haitang from the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa and Cold-Blooded Guard from the Divine Constabulary.
Initially, Li Dongyang and the other ministers wanted Zhu Houzhao to bring more guards, but after some discussion, it was decided that only four people would accompany him.
Needless to say, Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun were Zhu Houzhao's trusted guards.
Although Coldblood was the last of the four famous hunters to join the Divine Constabulary, his overall strength was definitely the strongest among the four famous hunters. Moreover, he had a wealth of experience in traveling the martial world and investigating cases.
Although Haitang's martial arts were not very strong, she was the most well-rounded person in the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa.
Haitang, who had studied under Young Master Wuhen, was not only knowledgeable, but she also knew everything about astrology.
In the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa and The Best Villa, Haitang was the one who had the most comprehensive information about the world.
Coldblood and Haitang were the entourage that Li Dongyang, Zhuge Zhengwo, and Zhu Bujue had arranged for Zhu Houzhao after much consideration.
……
Half a month later, Zhu Houzhao and his group of five arrived at the foot of Mount Heng.
Mount Heng, also known as Nanyue, Shouyue and Nanshan, is one of the five mountains.
The Mount Heng Sect, one of the Five Mountain Sword Sects, was located on Mount Heng.
Zhu Houzhao's destination, Hengyang City, was also at the foot of Mount Heng. They were now less than a day's journey away from Hengyang City.
"Young Master, it's almost noon. There's a restaurant in front of us. Why don't we have lunch at the restaurant and rest for a while before continuing our journey?”
Haitang suddenly suggested to Zhu Houzhao as they were hurrying.
" Young Master " was a title that Zhu Houzhao had Haitang and the other three address him in order to avoid trouble.
Along the way, all kinds of trivial matters were basically handled by Haitang. The others were already used to it.
Zhu Houzhao looked up and saw a restaurant not far ahead. He smiled and nodded."Alright, let's go to the restaurant first.”
Since Zhu Houzhao had decided, Nie Feng, Bu Jingyun, and Coldblood naturally had no objections.
Immediately, the group of five headed towards the restaurant ahead.
"Welcome, welcome. What would you like?”
As soon as Zhu Houzhao and his group entered the restaurant, a waiter immediately walked towards them and spoke politely.
" Let's find a good table first," Haitang said to the waiter." Then tell me what kind of food and wine you have here."”
" Alright, please come in," the waiter replied respectfully. He then led Zhu Houzhao and the others into the restaurant.
Not long after, Zhu Houzhao and the rest chose a window seat on the second floor and sat down.
" You guys sit down too," Zhu Houzhao said to Haitang and the others after he sat down.
" Thank you, Young Master." Haitang and the other three thanked Zhu Houzhao before sitting down at the table.
In the beginning, Haitang and the other three expressed that they did not dare to sit with Zhu Houzhao, but under Zhu Houzhao's insistence, the four could only follow orders.
The four of them were already used to it along the way.
After ordering the food and wine, the restaurant quickly served everything.
After Haitang tested the poison, Zhu Houzhao began to eat. Nie Feng and the other three followed suit.
In reality, Zhu Houzhao's current body was immune to all poisons, but Zhu Houzhao did not let Haitang skip the poison testing process.
After all, Haitang and Coldblood were not Zhu Houzhao's trusted aides. Zhu Houzhao naturally had to keep a trump card for himself.
"Hey, have you heard? "Hero Liu Zhengfeng of the Hengshan Sect will be holding the Golden Basin Washing Ceremony in Hengyang City in three days and will retire from the martial arts world." Zhu Houzhao and the others were eating when they suddenly heard a customer at a table not far away say to his companion beside them.
"Liu Zhengfeng? What kind of hero was he? Didn't they hear that he colluded with Qu Yang of the Demon Sect?”Immediately after, another person said shamelessly.
Soon after, the other people in the restaurant also began to discuss animatedly.
"I think Liu Zhengfeng probably chose to retire because of this!”
"It's hard to say. Liu Zhengfeng used to have a very good reputation in the martial arts world.”
"Who knows?"
“……”
Zhu Houzhao's eyebrows twitched slightly when he heard the discussions of the crowd. What a coincidence. He had just arrived, and Liu Zhengfeng was about to hold a big event to wash his hands in the golden basin. At that time, he would be able to meet the heroes of the Jianghu in this comprehensive martial arts world.
He just didn't know if the Golden Basin Washing Away Ceremony this time would be any different from the original drama.
"Waiter, serve me a table of good wine and dishes. If you neglect me and my little lady, I'll teach you a lesson!”
At this moment, a rough and arrogant voice sounded from the entrance of the restaurant.
At the same time as the voice fell, a burly man in yellow clothes with a wretched expression and a long saber in his hand walked into the restaurant with a beautiful and weak young woman.
