Xiao Ming put away the Black Iron cleaver and stood with Long Xiao, watching the Lu and Zhang families, ready to act at any moment.
Not far from Long Xiao, the middle-aged woman, though injured, still did not want to leave.
Long Xiao looked at the middle-aged woman and thought about how great the attraction of 'Dragon’s Roar' really was.
Long Xiao walked towards the middle-aged woman. The middle-aged woman flinched back a few steps and asked, "What do you want?"
Long Xiao smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, I don't kill people randomly."
"Then why are you coming over?" The middle-aged woman was still very nervous, her eyes filled with fear as she looked at Long Xiao.
"I want to ask, what is 'Dragon’s Roar' used for? Why do so many people want to get it?"
"You got 'Dragon’s Roar' and you don't even know what it's used for?" the middle-aged woman asked, looking at Long Xiao in surprise.
"Isn't that obvious? If I knew, I wouldn't be asking you," Long Xiao said unhappily.
Just as the middle-aged woman was about to tell Long Xiao about 'Dragon’s Roar', fighting sounds suddenly erupted. Xiao Ming ran over and said, "Brother, let's go."
Long Xiao glanced back and saw that the Lu family and Zhang Minlan and his two companions had already started fighting.
Now was the best opportunity to leave, so Long Xiao had to give up questioning the middle-aged woman.
Long Xiao and Xiao Ming sprinted along the road. Their basic skill, 'Chimei Xiaoyao Step,' had reached great accomplishment. Others didn't even see how they ran before they vanished.
This time, Long Xiao and Xiao Ming didn't dare to look for a place to buy a car. After getting far away from the hotel, they hailed a taxi and headed to the next county town with a Dragon Xing Hui stronghold.
To Long Xiao and Xiao Ming's surprise, as soon as they arrived in the next county town, they were intercepted by a group of people and had to fight again.
After repelling this group, Long Xiao worried that more people might come, so he and Xiao Ming changed their appearances.
Long Xiao used Hu Lei's human skin mask, and Xiao Ming became Hu Lei's little follower.
The two entered the county town again and approached the vicinity of the Dragon Xing Hui stronghold in this county.
As soon as they got out of the car, they noticed many people hidden around, all watching the place with hungry eyes. It was clear they were waiting for Ouyang Tuo to appear.
"Brother Long, let's go. There are many people ambushing here," Xiao Ming said in a low voice.
Long Xiao shook his head slightly and said, "No rush. I'm Hu Lei now. We can just find a place to sit and wait and see how long these people will wait."
Opposite the building was a small noodle shop. Long Xiao and Xiao Ming entered the shop, ordered two bowls of noodles, had a few dishes stir-fried, and got a bottle of wine.
While eating and drinking, they observed the surroundings of the stronghold. By two o'clock in the afternoon, eight groups of people had arrived around the stronghold, and the Lu brothers and Zhang Minlan and his two companions had also arrived.
"Brother Long, let's go. Let's go to the next Dragon Xing Hui stronghold."
Long Xiao shook his head and said, "No rush. Let's wait a bit longer and see when they leave."
The two walked out of the noodle shop, preparing to find a place to rest and come back at night, when Zhang Minlan walked towards them.
"Which family do you two belong to?" Zhang Minlan asked, scrutinizing Long Xiao.
"Which family we belong to, does that have anything to do with you?"
Zhang Minlan smiled and said, "Of course it does. We're looking for a partner, but the partners we choose have conditions."
"We don't want to cooperate with anyone. If I need help, I can get hundreds of people with one phone call."
"Are you bragging?"
"What's there to brag about? We have branches of the Martial Alliance all over China. It's not difficult for me to call a few people."
"You're from the Martial Alliance? Haha, that's great. I need to ask you about someone." Hearing Long Xiao say he was from the Martial Alliance, Zhang Minlan said happily.
"Who are you asking about? I only joined the Martial Alliance not too long ago, and I'm not very familiar with the various branches."
"The person I'm asking about, you definitely know. His name is Hu Lei, and he's very famous. A few days ago, he was just appointed as an Enforcement Elder of your Martial Alliance."
After speaking, Zhang Minlan took a step back and looked Long Xiao up and down. "There's news that Hu Lei is also a migrant worker. Wait a moment, my brothers watched the competition that day, and they know Hu Lei."
Zhang Minlan waved to two young men in the car. The two young men got out of the car and walked over.
"Brother, do you think he's Hu Lei?" Zhang Minlan pointed at Long Xiao and asked.
The two young men looked at Long Xiao. One of them, upon seeing Long Xiao's face clearly, immediately said happily, "Yes, it's Hu Lei, Brother Hu. Hello."
Long Xiao was a bit stunned. Even after changing his appearance, he was still entangled by them.
The two young men from the Zhang family were named Zhang Mingguang and Zhang Minghui. Both were core disciples of the Zhang family.
After the two introduced themselves, Zhang Minlan quickly said, "Brother Hu, my name is Zhang Minlan."
From their words, Long Xiao knew that the Zhang family was also a large family, but he had no idea what kind of family it was.
After listening to the three of them introduce themselves, Long Xiao said awkwardly, "I'm just a migrant worker. I don't know much about families or conglomerates. Today is the first time I've heard of a big Zhang family."
The three of them stared at Long Xiao like he was an idiot for a long time. Finally, Zhang Minlan said, "Brother Hu, how about we find a place to sit down, and I'll give you an introduction?"
Long Xiao looked around and said, "I still have to stay here and wait for Ouyang Tuo."
Zhang Minlan grabbed Long Xiao's arm and said, "Brother Hu, let's go. There are so many people here, and Ouyang Tuo isn't that stupid. He probably won't come today."
Xiao Ming stood aside, almost bursting into laughter. To be told to his face that someone wasn't very smart, he wondered what Long Xiao was thinking.
Long Xiao, fearing that Zhang Minlan might say something worse about Ouyang Tuo, quickly said, "Since that's the case, let's leave here first."
Long Xiao and Xiao Ming got into Zhang Minlan's car, and soon the five of them arrived at a teahouse.
"It's quiet here. Let's rest here for a while, and then we can go and watch tonight."
They ordered two pots of Longjing tea. After the waiter left, Long Xiao asked, "You didn't find me just to give me a lecture, did you? Just say what you need directly."
Zhang Mingguang poured tea for Long Xiao and said, "Brother Hu, we really want to get to know you. You fought so well that day..."
Long Xiao quickly interrupted Zhang Mingguang and said, "Stop. Let's get straight to the point. I'm just a migrant worker, and I'm not used to beating around the bush."
Zhang Minghui said, "Brother Hu, then I'll be direct. We heard you're friends with Long Xiao, and we want you to help us make an introduction so we can meet him."
Long Xiao knew exactly why Zhang Minghui and the others were looking for him, but he still had to pretend not to know.
"You're looking for him for something?"
Zhang Minghui nodded and said, "We heard that Long Xiao has excellent medical skills and is a miracle doctor. My grandfather was poisoned, and his life is in critical condition. We've consulted many famous doctors, but none could completely detoxify him."
Zhang Mingguang said, "Brother Hu, we can give you a referral fee."
Long Xiao hesitated for a moment before answering. Zhang Minlan, sitting next to Long Xiao, tugged at his sleeve and pleaded, "Brother Hu, please help us."
Looking at Zhang Minlan's expectant gaze, Long Xiao smiled, pulled his sleeve free, and said, "Alright, I'll help you with this. I'll call him later, and you can go find him directly in a couple of days."
