Chapter - 208 Divine Dragon Shakes Its Tail (11)

Huang Rong stuck out her tongue. "I don't want your bamboo stick," she said.

"Even if you want it, I cannot give it to you," Hong Qigong said. "I have a mind to teach you one or two kinds of kungfu; but I am too lazy these past few days, I don't have any interest to do anything."

"I'll prepare some good food for you to boost your interest," Huang Rong offered.

Hog Qigong's eyes lit up; but then he heaved a big sigh. "I don't have time to eat right now. What a pity, what a pity …!" He turned to Li Sheng and the others and said, "The Beggar Clan has several matters we need to discuss internally."

Li Sheng and the others came to Guo Jing and Huang Rong, expressing their gratefulness for saving their lives. Huang Rong had cut the rope that bind Miss Cheng's hands and feet. Miss Cheng was extremely shy; she held Huang Rong's hand and quietly said her thanks. Huang Rong pointed to Guo Jing and said, "Your Eldest Martial Uncle, Priest Ma had taught him kungfu, your Martial Uncles Qiu and Wang are also very fond of him, so I can say that we belong to the same family."

Miss Cheng turned her head toward Guo Jing and suddenly blushed. She lowered her head and after a while quietly stole a glance toward Guo Jing again.

Li Sheng and the other also congratulated all three people Hong Qigong, Guo Jing and Huang Rong. They knew Qigong did not usually accept any disciple; even among the Beggar Clan members rarely did he teach more than one or two stances. They wondered how Guo Jing and Huang Rong persuaded him that he was willing to take them. In their hearts they envied these two.

"We are going to prepare a banquet tomorrow evening to congratulate Clan Leader on having accepted two very fine disciples," Li Sheng said.

Hong Qigong smiled, "I am afraid they won't like filthy foods, the kind we beggars eat."

"We will certainly come," Guo Jing hastily said, "Big Brother Li is a Senior Hero, Junior would very much like to know you." Li Sheng was saved by Guo Jing; thus he kept his eyes on this young man and now listening to his humble speech he was even more delighted. He decided right then and there to befriend Guo Jing.

Hong Qigong said, "I am glad you two feel like old friends at your first meeting; but I warn you not to persuade my first disciple to be a beggar like you! You, my younger disciple, go and take Miss Cheng back home. We, the beggars are going to steal some chicken and beg for some rice." After saying these words, he left the temple followed by all the beggars. Just before leaving Li Sheng told Guo Jing that the banquet tomorrow would be held in that very same temple.

Guo Jing accompanied Huang Rong to escort Miss Cheng back home.

Miss Cheng quietly told Huang Rong her full name was Cheng Yaojia. Even though she had learned martial art from Sage of Tranquility Sun Bu'Er; but since she was born to a rich family, she was pampered since her childhood; plus by nature she was very shy, did not know too many people. Therefore, she was very different from Huang Rong who was carefree and brave. She did not dare to say even a half word to Guo Jing. Occasionally she would steal a glance and immediately lowered her head, her cheeks blushed profusely.
