The Hunted Hunter
Chapter 69. A Journey to Visit the Teacher
Finally Ma Guang along with the four others left the Yellow Bamboo sect.
The five people crossed the river that was near the Yellow Bamboo sect. The river that once washed away Ma Guang's body and was discovered by Duan Meng.
After arriving at the other side, they finally resumed their road trip.
The road they walked down the river.
Xia Jiao walked beside the right of Ma Guang and elder Sim Lan to her right.
While Yuan Jiali walked to the left of Ma Guang and Yuan Gao to his left.
***
The region that was at the border of the northern part of the Qi kingdom was not much different from the region in the western part.
Although the strength of the forces of the Qi kingdom was greatly calculated by other kingdoms, the number was very limited.
So there are quite a few villages that escape the protection of the Qi royal forces.
Efforts taken by the citizens of every village that cannot be protected by the Qi royal forces are to hire warriors - free warriors or warriors - warriors from neutral sects and sect streams whites.
The political situation in the Zhou empire at that time was unstable, because every kingdom that was in his territory had begun to fight each other behind closed doors.
The Zhao kingdom to the north of the Qi kingdom, even though its territory was larger than the Qi kingdom, its military power was still weaker than the Qi martial power, so the Zhao royal troops would not dare to disturb the Qi royal region.
Chaos that often occurs in the northern part of the Qi kingdom is often carried out by two black sect, namely the Red Scorpion sect and also the 1000 Poison sect.
The head of the group from the Red Scorpion sect that became a frightening specter in the northern region of the Qi kingdom was Hong Mogui.
It was the burly man who led his group members to destroy Quanshui village. Yang was the village Ma Guang as well as Xia Jiao came from.
***
"Where is the village we once visited?." Ask Ma Guang.
"Elder! Where is Shitou's village?." Ask Xia Jiao.
"We have to keep walking on this road to go down the riverbank so that we can arrive at Shitou village." Said elder Sim Lan.
"If we have arrived at the village of Shitou, then we will walk towards the north where the village we stopped at is." Xia Jiao.
"Oh, so yeah!?." Ma Guang.
After half a day of walking, they finally found a village.
The situation in the village seemed ordinary - ordinary. But Ma Guang did not lower his guard.
The eyes of the young man noticed every movement of the villagers.
When the five of them entered the village, the eyes of every resident who looked at them seemed unfriendly.
Ma Guang then invited the other four people to find a shop or restaurant for them to stop by to eat, so as to save the supplies they were under.
"Uncle! Does this village have a tavern or a restaurant?." Ma Guang asked a grown man they had met.
"There's a young master! The distance from here is near, but you must be careful." Said the man while shrinking his voice.
"Has something happened in this village?." Ask Ma Guang.
But not answering the question posed by Ma Guang, but the man immediately rushed to leave them.
"What's wrong with that guy? Apparently there's something wrong that's going on in this village." Mumbles Ma Guang.
They then proceeded to head to the place that was meant by the man Ma Guang had just questioned.
After arriving at the door of the shop, they immediately entered it.
Ma Guang immediately circulated his gaze to pay attention to the situation inside the tavern.
They were immediately greeted by a girl who acted as a servant in that place.
"Lord and Miss, is there anything I can help you with?." Ask the girl.
Seeing the behavior and hearing the tone of the girl's voice, Ma Guang was able to conclude, that the situation in this tavern was no different from the situation he had experienced.
"Miss! Is there something going on in this place?." Ma Guang asked in a small tone of voice.
"Don't be afraid, lady, we'll help you." Ma Guang Ma Guang said Ma Guang in a whisper.
"This village has been controlled by members of the black-flow sect of the 1000 Poison Sect and the people sitting in the corner of the room are their members as well." Said the girl while whispering.
"Gethem!." The throbbing voice of one of the people the girl meant.
"Thank you for the information." Ma Guang said to the girl.
"Prepare the pills for the antidote." Ma Guang's orders to the other four people.
"Please sit down sir!.: Say the girl.
After they sat down, the servant immediately asked them.
"What food will you order?."
"The best food and drink in the store for the five of us." Ma Guang.
"Well sir!." Say the girl while turning around and walking to head towards the kitchen.
After reaching the kitchen, a man went out and walked his way.
"What did you say to the young man?." Ask the man.
"Just as usual, sir, nothing more." Say the girl.
"If you lie, I'll kill you right away." Said the man.
Unlike the Red Scorpion sect, the sect head of the 1000 Poison Sect did not instruct its members to avoid trouble with the Yellow Bamboo sect disciples. So that after seeing the Yellow Bamboo sect clothes worn by Ma Guang. The man felt even more excited to finish him off.
"Finally I can kill a disciple of the Yellow Bamboo sect."
"But for the three women, it would have been a great pleasure if they accompanied Me and the Chief for a short night." Said the vice-chairman of the group with his perverted smile.
The man looked directly at the man who was sitting in the corner of the tavern room. The man seemed to signal them.
Finally one of them immediately got up and walked towards the cashier table.
"Master! Where is the toilet?." Ask the man of the Red Scorpion sect.
"After the master! Walk through that hallway." The cashier replied while directing with his hand.
"Oh so yeah!?." Said the man who walked straight away.
Ma Guang did not miss what the man was doing.
"You wait here and always be careful." Ma Guang said to the four people who were with him.
After he finished reminding the four others, Finally Ma Guang also got up and walked towards the cashier table. And the same thing Ma Guang did as the man he was watching.
"Master! Where is the toilet in this place.? Ask Ma Guang.
The cashier answered exactly as he had told the man before.
"Master! Be careful!." Speak while whispering the cashier after he finished showing the direction of the toilet.
Ma Guang immediately nodded his head in a sign that he had understood.
The young warrior immediately walked towards the back of the tavern.
The young man was very careful when he stepped back.
The young man's perception was already sharpened.
Finally Ma Guang could hear the vice-chairman's conversation with the man he was following.
"Too underestimate the opponent, then you will feel the consequences." Ma Guang muttered in his heart.
Finally the young man returned to the place they were in.
"You guys should be prepared - ready to fight against the sect members of the 1000 Poisons." Ma Guang said in a whisper.
"Where are they?." Ask elder Sim Lan.
"They're behind and they're plotting a trick to finish us all off." Ma Guang said in a whisper.
