Behind the Sihai Cargo Store is a martial arts training ground, which is extremely spacious and allows the horse team to run back and forth to practice cavalry.

However, with Mr. Guan leaving, the team of the cargo warehouse also left. There were more than 20 people left in the empty martial arts training ground. The Sihai Cargo Warehouse was not a good hall and never kept idle people. In the Gubei Village, there were so many people in the world, and naturally they had taken in many desperate people as thugs.

At present, most of this group of people were fled from the Guan area for murder, and they were all so-called heroes with martial arts skills. They were rebellious and rude. However, when they defected to Guan Ye, they were all desperate. If it weren't for Guan Ye, they would have been a pile of bones in the sand outside the Gubei Village.

So everyone is grateful for Mr. Guan's kindness and has been honest in the Sihai Goods Store for many years. Now that Mr. Guan returns to Camel City, it is not that they are unwilling to follow him to the General's Mansion, but that the General's Mansion is unwilling to accept them. When Hou San and Gao Jin talked, they left some face to save these people. After all, they are all colleagues, and these people are not very traitors and evil people. Most of the murders committed in the Guan are of some difficulties.

"Since Mr. Guan said that the high man is an amazing hero, I don't think he will lie to us."

Zhang Chonggu looked at his companions around him and said, "He is from Shandong, he is generous and loyal, and everyone regards him as the leader. After hearing his words, most of the people nodded.

"Brother Zhang, that high man has a great reputation, I'm afraid that others may not look down on us?"

In the crowd, a man looking at the deer-headed rat frowned and said, "I heard from the merchants outside that this high man hates evil and hates thieves the most in his life. Any horse thief who violates him will be inserted into wooden stakes for public display..."

Everyone was silent after hearing this. They were thieves in the eyes of the world. No one was wanted by the government. If Mr. Guan could take them in, the current momentum of this grand master may not be.

Zhang Chonggu looked at the faces of a group of people and knew that they were still worried about being looked down upon by the General's Office, so he shouted, "It's the high man's business whether he can look down on him or not. If he doesn't want to take him in, we will continue to work in the warehouse, so let's go!"

"It's just that Mr. Guan's kindness, we must not repay him. If that master is willing to keep us, I will also talk to you in the front. Brothers must be careful and don't make people laugh at Mr. Guan's unclear knowledge."

Zhang Chonggu looked around at his companions. Most of them were unruly. In the past, they only obeyed Guan Ye in the warehouse. Although the two leaders of the original horse team, Wen Da and Li Cheng, were very skilled in martial arts, they just left some respect on the surface and did not take these two seriously in their hearts.

Everyone's cold eyes swept over Zhang Chonggu, and they were all in awe. After years of getting along, who wouldn't know the temperament of Zhang Dalang. This is a serious military family background. He has a long spear and is handsome. His martial arts are the strongest among them and the most loyal.

"Brother Zhang, don't worry, we have all been blessed with Mr. Guan's kindness. Even if we sacrificed our life, we would never ruin Mr. Guan's reputation."

What is important about being in the green forest is to be loyal first, and a drop of water should be repaid with a spring of water. Guan Ye has a lifelong kindness to Zhang Chonggu and others. Zhang Chonggu made the words clear, so the rest of them naturally did not dare to neglect them.

"Okay, since that's the case, everyone will practice well. We must let that high school see our abilities."

Zhang Chonggu knew that although they all had their own abilities, they could not stand the military law, so they seemed very casual. In the past, when they went out with the horse team to do business, they were only used as scouts.

If there were any choices, Zhang Chonggu would certainly be willing to accompany Mr. Guan back to Camel City. He thought that he was originally innocent and was too stubborn. He bullied him and lost his father when he was young. He not only wanted to swallow his family's property, but also forced his widow to take over his widow's mother as a concubine while his father's body was not cold.

Even if his family has been loyal and kind for generations, Zhang Chonggu could not bear it. Finally, he sneaked home from martial arts, killed people and died, and was wanted by the government. After several twists and turns, he fled outside the pass.

Zhang Chonggu's thought was to revive the Zhang family's lintel, rather than hiding outside the frontier as a shameful thief. Originally, Mr. Guan was his hope, but the General's Office looked down on them, so now he can only look at the high master.

Mr. Guan told Zhang Chonggu about Gao Jin, so Zhang Chonggu knew that Gao Jin would be the most serious household in Hekou Fort. If he surrendered to Gao Jin, he might be able to remove the identity of a thief and rely on his own abilities to gain a future under Gao Jin, so that Zhang's family can be won over.

Under Zhang Chonggu's shout, twenty-three great men each boarded their horses, ran around the wooden stakes that the horse team usually trained, either slashed the straw men or galloped horses and shot arrows.

...

On the bluestone corridor, Hou San led the way forward and introduced the origins of Zhang Chonggu and his group to Gao Jin. "This Zhang Dalang is from Boxing, Shandong. He has been a military household for generations. His ancestors have been thousands of households. His father was originally a hundred households of the Dengzhou navy, but unfortunately he died young."

From Hou San's mouth, Gao Jin knew that among the so-called gangsters who were staying in the inn, several of them were the martial arts and military families who were "forced to Liangshan" like Zhang Chonggu. Especially Zhang Chonggu was originally a talent favored by Guan Ye, but the relationship in the General's Mansion was complicated. Zhang Chonggu cared about the identity of a thief who was wanted by the sea, and even if Guan Ye recommended it, it would be useless.

The generals in the border area would not take in Zhang Chonggu's origins and were not the so-called heroic servants of the locals, so Zhang Chonggu and others became characters in the bag left to him by Guan Ye.

Hou San walked along the way and told the details of the more than 20 people all the way, "Grandmaster, although these people are all wanted by the government, most of them are pitiful. If Gao Master looks down on them, he might as well keep them for the time being to see what they do."

As soon as Mr. Guan left, the horse team followed Shang. The key is that without the open protection of the General's Office, Gubei Village became a fat man coveted by all forces. Although Gao Jin and the General's Office could still have some relationship, Hou San knew in his heart that the so-called relationship was just to prevent other forces from taking action openly.

At present, the most lacking thing for the Sihai Warehouse is manpower. Zhang Chonggu and others are all brave men, and they are worth it. Hou San felt that Gao Jin might as well stabilize them first. After this period of time, it would not be too late to lay off the Gubei Village after stabilizing it.

"Mr. Hou, I believe in Mr. Guan's vision. Since Mr. Guan can take them in, I think they are not a big traitor or evil person."

Gao Jinchao Hou San smiled and said, "He was short of people, and Zhang Chonggu and others were wanted by the government, so he didn't care, let alone what kind of virtue the government is today. It is not an exaggeration to say that officials and the people are forced to rebel when Zhang Chonggu committed something.

Seeing that Gao Jin really didn't care about Zhang Chonggu and his thief identity, Hou San felt relieved. Although Zhang Dalang was a kind-hearted person, there was no shortage of other people. If Gao Jin was unwilling to keep these people, he might have something to do if he left the warehouse.

"Mr. Hou, these are the thugs in the warehouse."

At the end of the corridor, Gao Jin looked at the men who were full of energy and riding horses on the martial arts field and asked Hou San. His eyes fell on the men who were galloping horses and shooting, and he was very happy.

Behind Gao Jin, Wang Dou widened his eyes and watched the big men galloping back and forth, flipping and moving on the horse's back, firing soft bows in his hand, and six or seven arrows could hit the target in the ten arrows.

At this time, Zhang Chonggu, who was riding on the horse, also saw Hou San and others. His eyes fell on the tall young man in black, then jumped off the horse's back, and then shouted loudly, "Brothers, Mr. Hou has brought his new owner."

With Zhang Chonggu's shout, the men who performed martial arts stopped one after another, then rode their horses to Zhang Chonggu, jumped off the horses, looked behind Hou San, and no one said anything, and Zhang Chonggu did not speak anymore.

Zhang Chonggu understood Mr. Guan’s intentions, but he was stubborn and he was a little dissatisfied. The high-ranking master in front of him was several years younger than him, but he was praised by Mr. Guan. Zhang Chonggu is not a person without a stubbornness, but if he wants him to be willing to accept it, he has to see how capable he is.

For a moment, Zhang Chonggu and the others gathered together, and the atmosphere was strange and did not say a word. Instead, Hou San was a little anxious. However, he knew Zhang Chonggu's temper and it was useless to persuade him. Now he could only see how the high-ranking master next to him viewed them.

Beside Gao Jin, Wang Dou looked at the group of thugs gathered together, standing there without saying anything, just staring at them, and suddenly felt unhappy, "Second brother, just a group..."

Wang Dou was straightforward and when he was unhappy, he said something bad. However, before he could say the words "The thief is in charge of the army" he said, Gao Jin, who was familiar with his temper, turned around and shouted softly, "A Dou, don't talk nonsense!"

After saying that, Gao Jin walked out of the corridor and headed towards Zhang Chonggu and his group of thugs. These days, thugs refer to people who are skilled in martial arts and brave and good at fighting. He used to hear from his father that when he was making Japanese pirates in the previous dynasty, he mobilized foreign troops from all over Zhejiang to suppress the Japanese. One of them was a thug in Guangdong. However, when facing Japanese pirates, these martial arts masters recruited from the world were of no use.

Gao Jin walked to Zhang Chonggu and others, and he looked at them alone. Among them were the long pole hands from Shandong, the wool gourd soldiers from Henan, and the hunters from the tiger-killing hands. They all had murder cases on their backs and were wanted thieves by the government.

Those faces were honest, fierce, old, or young, facing Gao Jin's gaze, some people straightened their chests, some people lowered their heads, some people were expressionless, and some people laughed, but no one still spoke.

Zhang Chonggu looked carefully at the tall young man in front of him, with sword eyebrows, starry eyes, ape arms and bee waists, dark face, and his hands were hanging from each other. He knew that he was a child of the martial arts family who had been working hard all year round. The most important thing was that the young master had a strong smell of blood on his body, and the seemingly calm eyes made people feel a sense of coldness when he stared at people.

Gao Jin finally looked at Zhang Chonggu, who was leading the way. If it weren't for the great changes in his family, this son of a hundred families who were originally a martial arts student in Dengzhou would have a great future, but in the end, his fortune was a desperate person and became a desperate person now.

"You are Zhang Chonggu!"

"It's just that, I wonder what the Grand Master has to do?"

Zhang Chonggu replied, since the high man spoke, he was not ignorant.

"I have an elder who has told me before that people with abilities have high regard for themselves, especially those of us warriors. Only by seeing the truth and distinguishing the superiority of the enemy can we convince the other party."

Gao Jin said slowly, and Zhang Chonggu's eyes opposite him also became sharp. The group of people left behind by Guan Ye were not the servants and official troops he had conquered before. They were all outlaws and had seen the world. To impress them, they should give their kindness and power, and to give them kindness, but they should establish authority. Otherwise, if you accept these people, you will not help, but you will have future troubles.

Zhang Chonggu in front of him is the best martial arts among these people, and he is the best target to establish his authority. Gao Jin doesn't like to play those tricks that are vain and slandering, so he stretched out his hand to Zhang Chonggu, "Let's practice!"

"Then practice!"

Zhang Chonggu looked at Gao Jin who suddenly stretched out his hand in front of him, and was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his hand. He was not as good as the other party's demeanor.

"Okay, I heard from Mr. Hou that you are from Shandong long pole hand and you have all your skills on the gun and spear, so do I."

The strongest infantry of the Ming Dynasty was the killer, and this killer was the spearman. Shandong Long Pole Hand was the leader among the spearmen. The Zhang Chonggu family has been in the army for generations and has practiced the most authentic large guns in the military since childhood.

Hearing that Gao Jin was going to compete with him with a spear, Zhang Chonggu finally became convinced. After the hands they held were separated, he said, "Grandpa is indeed a hero, Zhang Chonggu is convinced."

When the two shook hands just now, Zhang Chonggu used all his strength and did not take any advantage. He knew that Gao Jin's martial arts in front of him were absolutely not bad. He had the intention to surrender, but he had never seen Gao Jin's temperament with his own eyes, so he was dissatisfied. Now that he saw it, he had a desire to compete for his strengths and weaknesses.

After years of displacedness, Zhang Chonggu is no longer the impulsive and irritable boy back then. He knows how to choose!

"Then we will compete, regardless of the outcome, just to compete." Gao Jin did not give up the idea of ​​the competition, but just said with a smile, "It is hard to find a good opponent. Gao is itchy today. I wonder what Brother Zhang wants?"

Zhang Chonggu understood Gao Jin's meaning. Seeing Gao Jin laughing sincerely, he remembered that no one was practicing with guns on weekdays, and suddenly felt itchy, so he said, "Grandmaster said, "Your Majesty, Zhang dares not obey orders, so he should accompany you."

Zhang Chonggu held his fists and saluted. The companions behind him looked at him and knew that Zhang Chonggu was convinced by this high-ranking master. Everyone thought that this high-ranking master looked young, but he was graceful and it was not embarrassing to join such a hero. The rest were like Zhang Chonggu, who had family-born martial arts. They all wanted to see how hard the master had in his hands and whether it was worthy of their effectiveness.

Seeing that Gao Jin was going to compete with Zhang Chonggu, Hou San became nervous, not as excited as Wang Dou next to him, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Master Gao, this sword and gun are blind. I think it's better to forget about this competition?"

Hou San didn't know how strong Gao Jin's martial arts were, but he understood Zhang Chonggu's martial arts. Guan Ye said that Zhang Chonggu's spear technique had already obtained the essence of large spears in the army, and was also a master who could rush to attack and kill generals in the general's mansion.

"Mr. Hou, my competition with Brother Zhang is not a fight between life, it's just a competition. You don't need to worry."

Gao Jin waved his hand and said that itchy hands were not fake. He had never encountered a decent opponent these days. This Zhang Chonggu is a master of using guns and spears, and just let him test what he had learned.

Seeing Gao Jin insisting, Hou San could only retreat in disappointment and freed up the venue with the others to watch Gao Jin and Zhang Chonggu compete.

"Mr. Hou, don't underestimate my second brother. Even the master of Shandong Changgang is a master, he may not be able to defeat my second brother."

Wang Douchao Hou San said, then touched it from his arms and took out a few chunks of silver, "How about we bet, my second brother will win..."
