Chapter 42: Entry slows down and goes out to escort
After all the exercises were completed, Zhao Ya stood upright like a spear, with a flash of light in his eyes, and the attribute panel that only he could see was opened.
Name: Zhao Ya. Age: 17 years old. Remaining life: 45 (+43 days) years
Skills: Eight-Part Diamond Kung Fu (Proficient 87/5000) Five Tiger Fist (Proficient 193/5000) Gale Knife Technique (Proficient 57/5000) Qinggong Flying on Grass (Comprehensive Comprehensive 1042/2000) Swallow Three Water Copies (Comprehensive Comprehensive 844/2000)
[Heart unlock progress: 54%]
Looking at these data, Zhao Ya couldn't help but frown slightly.
The progress of martial arts during this period has obviously slowed down.
For example, the Eight Parts of Diamond Kung Fu, Zhao Ya sometimes needs to practice for several days before he can gain a little proficiency.
In addition, the heart unlocking speed has only increased by 4%.
This made Zhao Ya a little anxious.
But he also knew that this phenomenon was inevitable.
After all, with the growth of his own strength, Zhao Ya has practiced martial arts such as the Eight-part Vajra Kung Fu and the Five Tiger Fist to an extremely advanced level.
You can imagine how difficult it is to make progress at this point.
It seems that I should find a way to learn some more profound martial arts.
After all, whether it is Five Tiger Fist or Guangfeng Sword Technique, it is actually considered a second-rate martial arts in the martial arts world, and it is a veritable mass product.
But where to learn?
Meng Lei, the chief bodyguard, does have some unique skills, but they are all used to save lives and will not be used to teach others easily.
Zhao Ya thought silently, and the previous anxiety had disappeared.
Because he knows that there are no shortcuts in martial arts.
If you want to become stronger, have enough capital, or even gain immortality, you must have the heart of a warrior who is brave and diligent and is not afraid of hardships.
"Brother Xiaoya, it's a little cold outside. Go back to the house and sleep!" Zui'er stood by the door and shouted softly.
Zhao Ya turned around and looked at Zui'er under the lamp. He couldn't help but smile when he saw her wearing cool clothes and looking at him shyly.
"Okay, I'm going to take a shower first."
Zui'er's face suddenly turned redder, and she hurriedly turned back to the house.
A moment later, when Zhao Ya entered the room after washing, the lights in the room had already been turned off.
Through the starlight outside the window, you can vaguely see Zui'er lying on the bed, covering his head with a quilt.
Zhao Ya felt funny in his heart.
This little girl is still so ashamed even after all this time.
Zhao Ya walked over and gently touched Zui'er's back.
"Are you asleep? Then I'll sleep too."
He said he was about to lie down.
"Don't!" Zui'er fell into the trap and shouted as he lifted up the quilt.
Then she saw the smile on Zhao Ya's face and couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
"What else?" Zhao Ya asked with a smile.
"Oh, I'm ignoring you!" Zui'er was so embarrassed that she wanted to turn around.
But Zhao Ya grabbed her.
"Um……."
With a cry, this night... the scenery was endless.
The next day, as soon as Zhao Ya arrived at the escort office, Meng Lei, the chief escort officer, called him over.
When they arrived at the meeting hall, Meng Lei smiled and asked about Zhao Ya's recent martial arts progress.
Zhao Ya did not say that the fascia all over his body had begun to tremble, after all, it was too shocking.
I just want to say that I feel that my entry into the country has slowed down significantly during this period.
Meng Lei had already expected this, and after a few words of comfort to Zhao Ya, he got to the point.
"This morning, news came from the Hong family in the inner city. They have a batch of goods to be delivered to Hekou Town. But now, escort masters Luo and escort Lin have already gone out, so I decided to let you go on this escort trip. Are you confident? ?”
Hekou Town?
Zhao Ya immediately remembered the escort trip last year.
He also won the meteorite sword that time.
I don’t know what’s going on at Forged Iron Villa. Do you know that the woman who cheated them of their sword is dead?
Zhao Ya's thoughts were spinning, but he didn't show it at all on the surface. He immediately stood up and said, "Don't worry, Chief Escort. This disciple has been greatly favored by the Escort Bureau. He should do his best and not dare to slack off. This time, he will be safe and secure." ."
"Hahahaha, Xiaoya, you are serious. Sit down quickly. It's just an ordinary escort. You don't have to be like this." Meng Lei said with a smile.
Zhao Ya sat down again.
Meng Lei continued: "This escort trip is different. It is a two-way escort trip. After escorting a batch of supplies from Wuxiang City to Hekou Town, it will then escort a batch of silver coins back from the bank there, so there was a delay on the way. It takes a little longer.”
"But you followed escort Luo once before, so you know the route, so there shouldn't be any big problems. I'll give you ten more escorts. What do you think?"
"Okay, but I want to choose the person who will do it myself."
"Of course. Today you select the manpower to prepare the escort car and set off early tomorrow morning. Is that okay?"
"no problem!"
When they heard that Zhao Ya was going to lead a escort team, all the escorts were excited.
These days, Zhao Ya has accumulated considerable prestige in the escort agency, and he is the youngest, so many people are willing to get close to him.
If you can go with him on this escort trip, it will definitely be better than following old escort masters such as Luo Qiang and Lin Sheng.
So when Zhao Ya started to select people, these operators rushed to sign up one after another.
In the end, Zhao Ya selected ten people and told them to prepare the escort car, pack their luggage and set off early tomorrow morning.
Everyone naturally agreed.
After the meeting, Tan Dong came forward extremely excited.
"Brother Zhao, should I go with you?"
"Why, you don't want to go?" Zhao Ya said with a smile.
"No, no, no, I'm so willing. I'll go back and pack my bags now."
With that said, Tan Dong was about to leave.
"Okay, it's not too late to go back and clean up at night. You go to the escort car and keep an eye on it first. The journey is not close this time, so be sure to pack everything in the escort car to make sure everything is safe."
"clear!"
The day passed in a hurry.
In the evening, Zhao Ya personally checked the escort car again. After confirming that there were no problems, he told the escorts the meeting time tomorrow and then left the escort agency.
When he got home, Zhao Ya told Zui'er that he was going to go out as a escort tomorrow and might have to go for five or six days.
Although Zui'er was reluctant to give up, he also knew that Zhao Ya was doing this job, so he hurried to pack his luggage.
This single piece of clothing is for practicing at night, this thicker piece of clothing is for when the wind blows, and this oilcloth should also be brought along, just in case it rains...
Looking at Zui'er who kept packing up and the packages that were getting fatter, Zhao Ya felt a little bit dumbfounded.
"Okay, stop pretending, I'm going out for five or six days. Why did you even pack a winter cotton-padded jacket for me?"
"Aren't you afraid of encountering wind and rain on the road again?"
"Don't go to so much trouble, just pack two changes of clothes."
At Zhao Ya's insistence, Zui'er had no choice but to take out most of the clothes and repack them.
After all this was done, Zhao Ya took out the short knife.
"This is for your self-defense. You should go out as little as possible during the period after I leave. If you encounter something, you can go to the escort agency for help. Do you understand?"
Zui'er nodded and reached out to take the short knife.
After this period of practice, although Zui'er's sword skills are not very good, they are quite decent. At least he can deal with three or five gangsters without difficulty.
But Zhao Ya still felt uneasy and gave Zui'er three more lime bags.
"It contains lime powder. If you encounter a strong opponent, throw it in his face and then take the opportunity to escape."
"Yeah!" Zui'er nodded like a fool.
In fact, Zhao Ya wanted to leave all the crossbows to Zui'er, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do it.
After all, that thing is difficult to control, and you may hurt yourself if you don't pay attention.
After finishing everything and sleeping all night, Zhao Ya got up early and came to the escort office at dawn.
At this time, all the executioners have arrived.
One final inventory of the escort cars and the issuing of escort orders...
After all the procedures were completed, Zhao Ya waved his hand.
"Set off!"
