The Ming and Qing Canals are located in the easterly direction of Taosang City, and the distance between the two is about 1,000 kilometers. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

As the disadvantage of being too close to Taosang City, the big city of Zezhou, is that the merchants who come and go would rather endure it and walk for one more day without staying in the Ming and Qing Canals, how can the desolate Ming and Qing Canals be compared with the rich Taosang. Only half-worn travelers with folded robes would enter the Ming and Qing Canals for cheapness.

The city of the Ming and Qing Canals is just like its name, the low city wall, the mottled imprints on it, and the wind is a little stronger to blow the two uncolored gates "squeak", backward, unchanged, and quiet.

On the edge of the city gate wall is a large piece of paper, and from a distance, you can see a few large characters written on it: "Entrance fee: Wuwen", and the people who stopped showed numb eyes on their faces.

It was dinner time, and the guards at the gate of the city had not yet been laid off, and there was an iron bucket half a man high beside him, and every time someone entered the city, he would throw several copper plates into it. The smell of food from nearby homes made the two guards hungry, so they had to look at the distant scenery to distract them.

At this time, there was a crisp and loud chirp from a distance, and the guards on the left were shocked, and the next moment they saw a big white bird flying over, the big bird was vigorous, and the feathers on its body were smooth, and it was known at a glance that it was carefully raised.

The big bird did not land immediately, but circled in the air before finding a place to land. Then several people came down from above, men and women, well-dressed, all of them of extraordinary appearance, and behind them was followed a very good-looking sika deer, with antlers two feet high.

The guard swallowed his saliva and glanced at the colleague opposite, all of whom looked at the surprise in each other's eyes, at this time a dusty traveler casually threw a few copper plates into the barrel, and the sound of metal collision startled the two to come back to their senses, and the guard on the left waved his hand impatiently, signaling the traveler in a crumpled robe to get out of the way quickly, don't be a "nobleman".

Without the travelers who "stood in the way", the guards opened their eyes wide and saw that the big white bird had turned into a twelve or thirteen-year-old young man with red lips and white teeth, and the two guards withdrew their eyes and didn't dare to look directly, this is the Lord of the Demon Clan!

After a while, the young man and the group of mermaids walked towards the city gate, and they seemed to be in a hurry, and they didn't even have time to pay attention to the big words posted on the door. The group passed directly through the city gate, and the guards looked straight ahead, as if they didn't see the few people who had "deliberately" escaped to enter the city.

This group of people is none other than Lin Xi, and Uncle Zhong calculated that the location of Xue Yi's accident was in the Ming and Qing Canals, so the group came here.

Just as the guards were wailing and tired and didn't see a single rich one all day, and finally came to a group of rich people, or they couldn't mess with them, Lin Xi, who was walking last, suddenly stopped and looked at the guards on the left.

The guards on the left couldn't see the identity of the woman, but they could guess that even if it wasn't a demon cultivator, it was also a human cultivator, and under the woman's gaze, he actually felt the pressure, his body was tense and straight, he wanted to move but didn't dare to move, and he couldn't stop praying in his heart, "Daxian go away!" ”

"What is this?" Lin Xi also saw the guard's nervousness, and asked as he shook the things in his hand.

The guard lowered his head and glanced at it, rubbing his eyes in disbelief and looking again, it was really gold! That's one or two!

"Tell me all the big and strange things that have happened in your city in the last two days, and this piece of gold is yours!" Lin Xi said.

The guards on the opposite side were also attracted by the golden light, and when they heard the words of the nun again, they couldn't help but look at their colleagues with envy and jealousy, if the two of them overcharged they could still split in half, but today this ingot of gold was pointed out by the nun to the kid opposite. He couldn't help but lament why he didn't have such good luck.

The guard glanced at the woman quietly again, and made sure that she was serious, so he quickly replied: "The largest restaurant in the city will serve guests for free for one day!" After speaking, he glanced at the woman and saw that there was no displeasure on her face.

Lin Xi thought to himself, what is this talking about, "Has anyone been injured in the city recently?" ”

The guard patted his head and said, "There really is!" …… I heard that two strong middle-aged men besieged a teenager, and the boy was beaten to his knees and begged-"

Lin Xi didn't wait for him to finish before he interrupted, "Where is that young man?" ”

After listening to it for a long time, there is finally a very close, and the others are not very reliable.

"Uh, I don't know, I heard that it was fought in the largest restaurant, if you haven't left, you should still be there!" The guard habitually touched his head and frowned, thinking for a moment.

Lin Xi threw the gold to him and turned to chase after the few people waiting in front.

The guards hurriedly took the ingot of gold, opened their mouths and bit it under the envious eyes of their colleagues before putting it back in their pockets. I thought, this group of people may be the accomplices of the two middle-aged people, who are here to seek revenge on the young man, hey, although the young man can fight one against two, but these people are on at the same time, and the young man may not be able to parry. But this is none of his business, and if you come to this ingot of gold, you can have a good drink in the evening.

Lin Xi informed a few people of the news he got, "Let's go to the building first!" ”

A few people have no opinion, the Ming and Qing Canals are not big, and there are only a few restaurants in the city that are still half-old, and the only one that is painted is undoubtedly the best restaurant that has just opened.

At dinner time, the business of the restaurant was just right, there were few empty seats in the lobby, Lin Xi and a few people chose a corner table to sit on, and asked Xiao Er for a pot of tea. ”

Xiao Er's eyes lit up, and he glanced at the shopkeeper on the counter, who was busy selling a jar of wine, Xiao Er quickly put the ingot of silver in his pocket, and the smile on his face bubbled out as if he didn't want money, "What do you want to hear?" ”

"I heard there was a fight in your store yesterday?" Lin Xi asked with great interest.

Xiao Er was very upbeat, "Look at you like this, you just entered the city, the news is really well-informed!" Yesterday, there was indeed a fight here, the entire lobby table was chopped into pieces, and our restaurant was almost destroyed on the second day of opening! ”

Xiao Er suddenly lowered his voice, leaned over the table and said: "There are three people fighting, according to the small one, these three people are not mortals, where can mortals jump so high, and they can conjure a fire dragon out of thin air?" Look there! ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the wall on the left side of the lobby and said, "That trace was burned by the fire dragon!" In addition, what kind of ice and water are at your fingertips, it is really an eye-opener for us mortals! ”

Lin Xi glanced at Xiao Er, who was intoxicated with various spells, took out a piece of paper and a brush, and drew it with a "swish", and after a while, the figure of a young man jumped on the paper.

"Is that boy the same person on paper?" Lin Xi clicked on the paper and asked.

Xiao Er shook his head, "I was hiding under the table at the time, and I didn't see anything clearly. ”

Lin Xi was not angry, "Does he still live here?" ”

"Hmmm! Room No. 3 on the second floor! ”

Lin Xi waved his hand, and Xiao Er's ass went down.

"Let's go up and have a look!" Uncle Zhong said, to confirm, if it is really Xue Yi, it may not be as serious as few people imagined.

Standing in the third room of Tianzi on the second floor, in front of the door, Uncle Zhong nodded to Xiao Yu'er, and Xiao Yu'er raised his hand and knocked on the door.

The door squeaked open, and a handsome young man looked vigilantly at the group outside the door, "Who are you?" What are you going to do? ”

The young man's body looked very thin, as if a gust of wind could blow him down, and he could only feel a very weak spiritual power from him, not even as strong as Lin Xi's.

Through the crack, you can see the furniture inside and a fat figure flashing by.

It's not Xue Yi, Lin Xi can't say whether it's disappointment or something else.

Xiao Yu'er touched her head embarrassedly and looked at the number plate hanging on the door, "Hey, it's not the twenty, I'm sorry, I knocked on the wrong door!" ”

The handsome young man glanced at a few people, and the door closed half with a "pop".

It turned out that Xiaolan blocked the door, and her delicate and youthful face turned red, "How many people are still in trouble?" ”

Xiaolan rubbed her eyes, she had just seen a hem there, and it was gone in the blink of an eye, and she immediately realized that there was another person in the room! So he said lightly, "No! ”

The door slammed shut again.

Lin Xi walked to the staircase absentmindedly, and didn't notice that the other people stopped after taking two steps.

Lin Xi sat back at the original table, and somehow thought of the fat black shadow that he saw just now, who was that young man, why did he hide?

I was about to ask Xiaolan if she had seen it blocking the door, only to find that the other people hadn't come down.

A few people stood not far from the staircase, Uncle Zhong was looking at his palms in a daze, Xiao Yu'er was lying on the deer's ear muttering something, Ji Nan and Xiao Lan also looked at Uncle Zhong and sometimes looked at Xiao Yu'er or the door with a solemn face.

Lin Xi shook his head, let Xiao Er open the room next to Tianzi No. 3 room, took the key to open the door and called a few people in.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this teenager? Lin Xi asked in a low voice.

"Well, even though we've cleaned up, we can all smell a faint smell of blood." Ji Nan replied.

Lin Xi rubbed her nose, she didn't smell it.

Thinking of the hiding figure, Lin Xi said: "Although I didn't smell blood, I saw someone hiding!" ”

Xiaolan looked at Lin Xi, "You saw it too?" ”

"Well, because the speed is too fast, I can only see that the man is very fat, and he is wearing a robe with a pattern on a blue background, which is either a Taoist robe or an ordinary robe."

Xiaolan nodded, she saw such a person.

The smell of blood, coupled with the fat figure, this teenager is definitely eccentric!

After a while, Uncle Zhong raised his head, "I can't tell if it's right here, there is only an approximate range, and it is certain in the restaurant." ”

"Shall we break in, then?" Lin Xi asked, the cultivation of the handsome young man is not high, Lin Xi can beat him alone, and the fat one can be handed over to Xiaolan or Ji Nan.

"No need to break in, wait!" Uncle Zhong said lightly.

*****

Half an hour later, there was a slight "creaking" sound from the room next to it, although it was very small, it was still heard by Lin Xi and the others.

Xiao Yu'er leaned on the window and looked, "There is a person who has entered the corner next to it!" ”

Uncle Zhong nodded, "Little fish go chase it!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a white light flashed, and Xiao Yu'er chased him out.

And there has been no movement since a person went out.

Ten breaths later, the little fish jumped in through the window in frustration.

Looking at his expression, I knew that he was lost, "I obviously saw him, so I was about to catch him, but who knew that this person threw a handful of soil, and when I opened my eyes, the person was gone!" And it's a dead end. ”

Uncle Zhong was stunned when he heard this, he underestimated these people, and looked at Xiaolan, "That person must still be there, if you hurry up, you can catch it!" ”

He looked at Xiao Yu'er again, "You follow and learn, it's not a great spell!" ”

When Xiao Yu'er heard this, it turned out that this person was still there, and the frustration on his face disappeared immediately, and he happily jumped down from the window with Xiaolan.

Looking at Lin Xi and Ji Nan's puzzled expressions, Uncle Zhong said: "There is a sect in the north that only accepts disciples of earth attribute spiritual roots, and all the disciples of this sect must cultivate a life-saving technique, which is to convert their bodies into earth-attribute substances at will. Therefore, as long as it is on the ground, or close to the earth, it is an object that they can imitate and thus deceive the enemy. ”

No wonder Uncle Zhong said that this is not a great technique, this kind of calligraphy cannot play a role in signing up for those who know it, and this method will also deal with mortals. If Xiao Yu'er knew that there was such a technique, she wouldn't let this person go easily.

Sure enough, after ten breaths, first a figure was thrown in, and then Xiaolan and Xiaoyuer also jumped in.

The person on the ground immediately got up as soon as he landed, it was a middle-aged man of medium height and slightly chubby, with a plain and steady face, not the obese figure that Lin Xi saw.

The middle-aged man looked at a few people before he said weakly, "I don't know what happened to a few of them?" ”

"Which sect are you? What are you doing here? Why walk through the window? Who else but you and the teenager? What's the smell of blood in your room? A series of questions ran out, and the middle-aged man was stunned, he didn't expect these people to know so much.

Seeing his eyes rolling around, Xiao Lan Liangliang said, "If you don't want to do it again, you'd better answer honestly!" ”

The middle-aged man immediately became honest and 'confessed', "That, Daoyou, we just came out to do the task, and we didn't do anything bad!" ”

We are not the people jingcha, who cares if you do bad things or not!

"Why do you want to go through the window, what are you guilty of?" Xiaolan asked impatiently.

"We, we don't, we don't have a weak heart." The middle-aged man's eyes dodged, and he said in a slurred voice.

Isn't this called a weak heart?

We are not blind, you have the word "weak heart" written on your face!
