Chapter 157: Unusually Quiet
The streets, which were originally bustling and lively, became unusually quiet at this time, and a group of ordinary people stood in place, their faces all very visibly frightened.
Under the scorching sun, the strong man only felt that he was soaked in cold sweat, and the rough cloth was even more uncomfortably tight on his back.
But he didn't dare to move at all, and even his breathing was cautious, for fear that the amplitude would be too large and he would accidentally hit the sword and lose his life.
Qi Jingyue was also shocked, although he still maintained his previous calm on the surface, only he knew that the hand holding the sword was about to be unable to support it.
He didn't know why he drew his sword so impulsively, or if he threatened the ruffian in front of him with a rather unceremonious attitude, which was not his previous style.
Counting it carefully, in the big circle around, only Lin Feng was still calm, keeping calm from beginning to end.
It's just that if you look closely, you will find that Lin Feng's face and eyes are filled with two completely different emotions, one side is smiling, and the other side is cold.
Lin Feng walked to Qi Jingyue's side, his gaze swept over him indifferently, and then he put his hand on his arm and pressed downward.
"Let it go, say something slowly. ”
It wasn't until the sword in Qi Jingyue's hand was finally put down that Lin Feng patted him on the shoulder, and then he looked at the strong man again.
"Who told you to come?"
Faced with Lin Feng's question, which seemed inexplicable and unreasonable, Qi Jingyue fell into deep thought, but the strong man suddenly turned pale.
He looked up in a panic and looked around, back and forth, as if he was looking for something, and his mouth was constantly muttering something because of nervousness.
Lin Feng looked carefully.
The strong man's lips were clearly a person's name.
So, Lin Feng asked again: "You didn't handle the matter well this time, when you go back, your master will not let you go." ”
While speaking, Lin Feng had been observing the strong man's emotions, and when he saw his suddenly tense body and pale face, he couldn't help but be more sure of something.
Lin Feng looked at the strong man and was about to ask something more, when he suddenly saw the strong man in front of him suddenly tremble.
Not because of the cold, but because, afraid.
The man who sent him is around here!
"Not good!"
Lin Feng let out a low roar, and then he immediately pushed Qi Jingyue to the side, spun back and forth several times in a row, and pulled the strong man's collar with his backhand.
"Watch out for something around here!"
Almost as soon as his words fell, there was a sudden change around him, several sharp piercing sounds, followed by the screams and cries of the people.
Someone is throwing arrows around here!
Lin Feng turned his hand and pulled out the Tianwen Sword, holding it across his chest, his eyes sharpening to probe the surrounding environment.
They are on this busy street, at this time when the crowd is surging, coupled with the surrounding pavilions, multi-storey restaurant eaves blocked, if the person who released the arrow has the intention to hide the traces, it is really difficult to find for a while.
However, for some reason, the strength of the people behind the scenes is much smaller, and it seems that except for the arrow at the beginning, although the rain of arrows behind it is large, it has no intention of hurting others at all.
Lin Feng furrowed his brows, standing naked in the middle of the street, he slowly said the Tianwen Sword, without the slightest cover.
The arrows "whizzed" past him, and although it looked thrilling, it just confirmed his thoughts.
The people behind it are really bluffing, and it seems that they should have other purposes.
Lin Feng's eyes suddenly widened, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he hurriedly turned around to find the big man who was making trouble just now.
However, as far as the eye can see, apart from Qi Jingyue, who is still dodging the attack, where is there a living person?
"Senior Brother Qi!" he shouted loudly.
At the same time, the man who released the arrow seemed to have retreated.
Qi Jingyue walked towards this side after closing the momentum, but his face was no longer as calm as before.
Lin Feng just wanted to speak, but suddenly saw him facing him, bowed deeply, and then stood aside with his head down, holding his sword in his arms, like a child who had done something wrong.
With an incomprehensible sigh, Lin Feng looked at him and said, "Senior Brother Qi didn't do anything wrong, he just wanted to be chivalrous and righteous, and cultivators should always have a heart to support justice, which is also what Master taught us." ”
"It's just that the thief's tricks are too clever, so his senior brother was blinded for a while. ”
Lin Feng didn't care about what he said, and he didn't blame others at all, but Qi Jingyue knew that what he had just done was a little excessive.
With a sad face for a long time, Qi Jingyue looked at Lin Feng and wanted to say something, but a girl's figure appeared in his sight unexpectedly, his eyes widened, and he raised a hand to that side.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Feng turned around and looked in the direction he was pointing, and also found that the girl was the one who had begged them to help find the lost item just now.
The girl was walking towards Lin Feng and them without squinting, her demeanor was dignified and polite, but there was no expression on her face.
After a while, the girl turned out to be just Lin Feng and Qi Jingyue, and walked straight to the front.
"Senior Brother Lin Feng, I still feel that this matter is inappropriate, what that girl showed is not like hypocrisy. Qi Jingyue was worried.
It's just that he thought that Lin Feng wouldn't care about this kind of thing, so he shook his head helplessly, and wanted to turn around and leave, but he heard Lin Feng shouting to him again.
"Let's go, then follow up and take a look, see if what she said is true or not, if there is such a thing, it is not impossible to help!"
Although it was strange that Lin Feng's attitude suddenly changed, Qi Jingyue was still relieved to follow.
He said, Senior Brother Lin Feng is not the kind of person who will not save him when he sees death.
The girl walked in front alone, unaware of everything behind her, and never looked back.
Lin Feng followed behind, his toes tapped, without the slightest sound, while his eyes kept glued to the feet of the person in front of him.
As Qi Jingyue said, the emotions shown by the girl are indeed not hypocritical, she is really worried about the old man in her arms.
However, the girl was by no means as powerless as she said, Lin Feng could see clearly that the calluses on her hands were definitely caused by martial arts practice.
Just like now, it's clear that this girl has walked all the way, but her steps have always maintained a steady speed, and the spacing is the same.
This shows that she at least has some skills, so she will always maintain such a speed.
It seems that there must be something hidden in this matter.
