In the dust, a group of men on horseback, with swords on their backs, and in sumptuous cloaks, arrived outside the inn.

The group was clearly of extraordinary status, as could be seen from the horses they were riding.

Among these horses, the smallest one is more than a zhang long, eight feet high, strong and powerful body, slender four hooves, no variegation, shiny hair, all show that these horses are not ordinary species, especially the black horse ridden by the leading young man.

If you are good at raising horses, you can see that the horse is a special "ink dragon horse" of the Far Eastern grassland, because the whole body is as black as ink, and there are fine scales under the ribs, there is a legend that this horse has the blood of a dragon.

This thing is not so much a horse as a strange beast, because the "Molong Pony" does not eat ordinary forage, but eats omnivorous like humans, and if you want to feed it well, you must eat no less meat.

This world is not a prosperous modern society, but a backward ancient world, and it is not easy for ordinary people to eat a meal of meat, let alone a horse.

This thing is not only picky to eat, but also complicated to raise. Normally, a horse has to be paired with three or four grooms, who take care of it day and night. It's not something that ordinary rich and noble families can afford at all.

But this kind of horse is also extremely fast and fast, extremely enduring, carrying people for thousands of miles a day, and also has the spirituality of people, and never abandons the master when he meets him.

The hungry wolf on the grassland met the Molong horse, and they had to retreat, this horse is a hard-to-find magic horse!

There were three men and women on horseback, two men and one woman, the men were handsome and dashing, and the women were smiling like flowers. Between the operations, there was an orderly order, as if it had undergone militarized training.

Whether it is their appearance or martial arts cultivation, the three of them can be said to be the dragon and phoenix among people, and the pride of the sky.

Senior Brother Lin, this time, you broke the seventy-two thieves of Wushan with one person and one sword, I am afraid that it will be rumored on the rivers and lakes for a long time!"

Among the three, a young and beautiful girl with eyes like autumn water, a peachy face, looked at the leading young man with warmth, and said with a smile.

The young man in the lead has a slender figure, a high nose bridge, and fair skin like a woman, but his temperament is not weak, but there is a kind of intimidating majesty all over his body.

That Senior Brother Lin, with a smile on his face, said indifferently: "Senior Sister Miao praised, it's just a group of rabble!"

Another young man in brocade clothes, with a slender figure and sharp eyebrows and eyes, answered: "Senior Brother Lin is too modest! The forest monkey ranked third in the seventy-two thieves of Luoxi, that is a first-class martial artist, even the official family has no way to take him, and when he meets senior brother, he is not an enemy at all!"

Senior Brother Lin's name is Lin Yi, and the other two are all disciples of the Fallen Witch Sect, and the purpose of this trip to the rivers and lakes is precisely for this martial arts conference.

Lin Yi shook his head with a smile and stopped his junior brothers and sisters from continuing to pat themselves: "There is an inn here, let's go to rest and rest first, and then set off tomorrow." ”

The younger brother and sister naturally had no opinion, turned over and dismounted, left the avenue with the reins, and walked to the stable of the inn.

As soon as the three of them entered the stable, the whole stable immediately became a sensation.

You must know that the Molong Horse suppresses other breeds of horses from the bloodline, even if Chenfeng's horse is a wild horse from the wilderness, he is also very frightened at this time, and wants to break free from the shackles and flee from afar.

Inside the inn, after hearing the neighing of horses, Chen Feng knew that something was wrong outside, and when he came to the outside of the inn with Yanagi, the two frightened horses had already broken their reins and disappeared away from the inn quickly.

“...！”

Chen Feng and Liu Sheng were stunned, and the three people of the Fallen Witch Sect, who were the culprits, were also embarrassed at this time, and scared their horses away in front of their masters, which was also the first time they had encountered it.

"That...... and we will compensate for it. ”

“......？”

Something has happened, and the only way to save the situation is to find a way.

In the case of arguing with reason, Chenfeng got a black dragon horse as compensation, which still felt a bit of a loss.

After all, all he wanted was two good horses that could carry them to the martial arts conference, and although the Molong Horse was powerful, he couldn't let the two big men ride together!

Gu Dongsheng was finally carried back to the inn by He Fan.

I don't know if it was the last move that exhausted his strength, or if the exhaustion accumulated over the past few days was released at the moment of victory. After returning to the inn, Gu Dongsheng lay on his bed and fell asleep deeply.

As the sun set and night fell, Qincheng was gradually shrouded in darkness.

In a room north of Qincheng, there were two cups of tea on the table, and the tea was still warm. But there was only one person sitting in the room.

A middle-aged man was tapping his fingers lightly on the tabletop, staring at the teacup across from him with deep eyes.

After a while, a man in black gently pushed the door and walked in.

"Master, what should we do next?" the man in black walked to the side of the middle-aged man and stood up, and asked respectfully.

"Just do what the seventh master just said. The middle-aged man paused and continued; Release the news, the next ring match, in a month, this time we have to select the opponent to improve the cultivation to within one realm, of course, the bounty has also been increased to fifty taels of gold. ”

"There's only one spot, and everyone who wants to compete in a month's time has to beat all the other competitors in that month. ”

"Okay, sir!"

The man in black slowly exited the room and disappeared into the night.

......

East of the city, Yihan Inn.

"Shopkeeper, you're back. I'm going to starve to death!" As soon as Lu Qi walked into the inn, He Fan, who was lying on the table, stood up and walked towards the courtyard, "I'll go and call Dongsheng to eat." ”

Lu Qi smiled, closed the door directly, walked to the table in the middle, and sat down.

Yin Xiaoyin stood behind the counter, quietly watching all this. Dressed in a cyan robe, with long hair simply tied behind his back, and Lu Qi's delicate face, it is really ...... Perfect!

From the first time he met Lu Qi, Yin Xiaoyin was attracted by his mysterious and melancholy temperament. Yes, it's temperament, not appearance. Yin Xiaoyin thought so.

"Are you there?" Lu Qi just sat down, then turned to look at Yin Xiaoyin behind the counter.

"Huh?" Yin Xiaoyin walked out of the counter in a little panic, "The rice is in the kitchen, I'll go get it." ”

Yin Xiaoyin said as she walked towards the backyard.

"Sister Xiaoyin, why are you walking so fast?"

"What's the matter, come and help!"

Listening to the conversation coming from the courtyard, Lu Qi's face showed a rare smile.

A few months ago, a disheartened Luqi passed by Qincheng, just in time for the owner of this inn to sell it.

At that time, Yin Xiaoyin and He Fan, who had been working in the inn since they were children, and the helpless Yin Xiaoyin and He Fan stayed at the door of the inn, looking at the passing crowd.

When Lu Qi saw the two sisters and brothers for the first time, especially when he saw Yin Xiaoyin's eyes at that time, something seemed to be touched in his heart, and he thought that he had nowhere to go, so he bought the inn and let the two of them continue to stay here.

The day after buying the inn, Lu Qi replaced the plaque outside the door with the four big characters of the Yihan Inn, and he became the shopkeeper of the Yihan Inn. Of course, he is just a listed shopkeeper, except for the three rules he set at the beginning, everything in the inn is taken care of by Yin Xiaoyin.

Just like now, Lu Qi only needs to sit at the table, and Yin Xiaoyin and the others bring the food to him.

Gu Dongsheng sat down opposite Lu Qi with some trepidation, lowered his head, and stared at the dishes and chopsticks in front of him.

On weekdays, Lu Qi was extremely strict with Gu Dongsheng, so Gu Dongsheng was already a little in awe of him, plus he slept all afternoon after he came back today, and his heart was a little weak.

The other three had just taken two bites before they discovered Gu Dongsheng's abnormality
