Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua understood that there were indeed some kind-hearted people in the Rivers and Gardens. However, he was even more puzzled. Why couldn't he, as a person from Pingyang City, be of no help?
So Zhang Xiaohua asked, "Brother Yuan, we should draw our swords and lend a hand when seeing injustice on the road. This is the fundamental code of the people of the Rivers and Gardens. Seeing me bullied by the local thugs of this town, you should step up to help without hesitation. Why are you saying that you might not have helped?"
Yuan Changqing and the others' faces reddened slightly, and they awkwardly replied, "Little brother, you may not know that we, like you, also come from afar. Even a fierce dragon doesn't suppress the local snake. It's better to mind our own business whenever possible."
Zhang Xiaohua was enlightened, and then asked, "So why did you want to help me?"
