The sun rises in the east, and the sky gradually brightens. Ye Fan slowly opened his eyes and looked behind him, the fire had already been extinguished, and the three members of the Li family had disappeared, thinking that they should have gone in the dark. Ye Fan rubbed his eyes, still a little sleepy, got up and walked to the stream, picked up a nest of stream water, the cold stream hit his face, Ye Fan felt a lot more sober in an instant.

The young man wiped his face with his sleeve, looked at it, and suddenly saw a figure in the stream, and quickly turned around in a panic.

It was a middle-aged man who was not tall or strong, wearing a coarse cotton coat and a long knife at his waist, and carrying a bag, looked at Ye Fan condescendingly, and said, "You are Ye Fan?"

Ye Fan didn't dare to take it lightly, hurriedly got up, and asked carefully, "Are you looking for me?"

The coarse man grinned and said, "I am a friend of Mr. Wen, my name is Wei Cheng, and I am just going to Chongling Pass, before that, I am responsible for protecting you, and we can take care of each other." ”

Ye Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

Although I don't know why ordinary people like Mr. Wen know friends in the rivers and lakes, if this man really harbored bad intentions, he would have done it a long time ago, and he would not have waited until now. It's just that Ye Fan still didn't completely let down his guard, and then asked, "Then do you have any tokens from Mr. Wen, or if Mr. wants you to bring them to me?"

The man was a little impatient, "You need to be so cautious, if you want to cut you, you will cut it early, you kid is really not bold at all." ”

Ye Fan didn't move, just stared straight at him.

The man was upset, rolled his eyes, took out a wooden card from his pocket, and threw it to Ye Fan: "Serve your kid, this will be fine." ”

Ye Fan stretched out his hand to take it, looked at it carefully, and the worries in his heart finally completely dissipated. This wooden plaque was carved from the trunk of a peach tree that Ye Fan cut down from Grandma Mountain three years ago. There are two pieces, one is written 'I wish to be a winged bird in heaven', and the other is written 'I wish to be a branch in the earth', which is a birthday gift from Ye Fan to Mr. Wen. What Ye Fan held in his hand was Mr. Wen's.

Ye Fan handed back the wooden card and apologized: "When you go out, you have a lot of concerns, please forgive me." ”

Wei Cheng put away the wooden card, shrugged his shoulders, turned around and extinguished the fire with snow that still had embers, and said without looking back: "After sleeping all night, hurry up and go out before dark." There are more than a hundred miles to almost reach the town in front, and when the time comes, with that supply, we will strive to reach Chongling Pass in five days. ”

Ye Fan nodded, and when he saw that the man had already walked away, he quickly slowed down and followed.

Wei Cheng, who claimed to be a good friend of Mr. Wen, said that the road ahead was not difficult to walk, and as long as he followed the creek all the way to the north, he would soon see the town.

Both of them were strong men, and they didn't stop much along the way. It's just been a long day, Ye Fan hasn't eaten for a long time, and his stomach is already hungry. The young man was already in the stage of growing his body, and he walked for a long time, and when the man saw this, he took the initiative to let the two of them rest for a while and eat something.

Ye Fan was a little hesitant, the jade card could not be used in front of outsiders, if the food he prepared appeared out of thin air, and if he couldn't prepare it, Wei Cheng in front of him would have other thoughts, and it would really outweigh the losses.

Wei Cheng saw the young man's hesitant appearance, and sneered: "You kid won't even bring food when walking the rivers and lakes, right? ”

immediately took out two steamed buns from his backpack and threw one of them to Ye Fan.

Ye Fan stretched out his hand to catch it, did not use the jade plate, and chose to wait and see what happened. The young man thought while nibbling on steamed buns, it seems that he will have to prepare a backpack when he arrives in the town, although the jade plate is convenient, but he still can't see people, and it is good to put some food for later.

Walking with Wei Cheng all the way, even if the man always laughed at the young man's clumsy hands and feet, it was undeniable that this was a very capable and interesting person.

Although he doesn't look good, his foot strength is extremely amazing, and he has a lot of experience in wild survival, and he knows the name of the beast passing by at a glance. He will also talk to Ye Fan about his 'great achievements', bragging, saying that his knife skills are unparalleled in the world, but he never uses a knife easily, so as not to overshadow everyone who uses knives in the world, and no longer have the courage to lift a knife.

Ye Fan always smiled and nodded yes on the side. It's just that once Wei Cheng boasted too much, saying that he had fought with Jianzun Chuzhong once before, and if he lost, he would be blamed for diarrhea the day before yesterday, otherwise the outcome would not be known. Ye Fan questioned for the first time when he heard this, and said that then you can pull out the long knife to demonstrate the demonstration, and you don't have to be angry about the mountains and rivers, just cut the gravel on the opposite side so that he can open his eyes. Wei Chengcheng said that as soon as I pulled out this knife, the power was too great and I couldn't contain it. If I accidentally hurt someone and cause the temple to punish me, you can stop it for me.

Ye Fan smiled and shook his head, clearly disbelieving.

Wei Cheng didn't argue, just smiled and said to Ye Fan, boy, it will be difficult for you to please your wife in the future, you don't believe the truth, it's not a good thing to be suspicious.....

At this time, Ye Fan was full of thoughts that if Zhao Yongchang was here, he would definitely learn from Aunt Sun in the alley next door, and sneered without smiling, Wei Cheng, it's a sunny day now, otherwise God will be the first to slash thunder on you.

The Zhu family restaurant in Yanming Town is much more prosperous than in the past, and even the shopkeeper has become Xiao Er's hot food and wine. In the corner of the restaurant, there sat a white-haired old man with a normal look and a stunner woman with a bright smile.

The woman got up and poured wine for the old man opposite, and said with an unchanged smile: "Master Ji, is your old news reliable? It's nothing for me to run in vain, I'm afraid that the old man will blame, and we won't be able to explain it." ”

The white-haired old man raised the wine glass in front of him, drank it all in one gulp, frowned, and lowered his head to spit it out, looking displeased, "The wine in the mortal world is tasteless." ”

The woman sneered and said, "Master Ji, when you get the things in your hands, the concubine will send you a few jars of good wine, and you will feel that it is not enough for the concubine to empty the wine cellar for you." Now let's talk about the background of the whereabouts of that thing, so that the concubine and the master can relax.

The white-haired old man put down his wine glass, and said slowly in a sharp voice: "That wisp of Haoran Qi has appeared in the town, and the old man can definitely guarantee it." It's just that the relationship between that kid and the temple is a little unpredictable, if the great sacrifice is alarmed, track it down, don't talk about you and me, even the master himself will not be able to protect. ”

The beautiful woman's expression was a little lonely when she heard this, "Isn't that unmoving?"

The old man waved his hand and said in his heart: "I've checked, that kid doesn't even have aura, he's just a mortal, let the rice buckets in Zilin Hall explore the truth first, if the situation is as I expected, the hands and feet are cleaner, and we can't be found at all, when the time comes, go back to restore our lives, the emperor is far away, what if the temple comes?"

The woman breathed a sigh of relief, and her towering breasts rose and fell, making several swingers at the table swallow their saliva, thinking that it would be worth ten years of life to be debauched with such a stunner for one night.

The woman threw a wink at the men, which caused her to drool even more, so she ignored it, turned back to the old man, and said, "Have you found out the whereabouts of that kid, do you need me to do it?"

"According to the people of Zilin Hall, it was seen in the wilderness not far from the county seat of Longquan. It should be going to Chongling Pass, he is alone, I really don't want to kill him. ”

The woman was still a little worried, "Do you have to kill to do it?"

When the old man heard this, he showed some anger and shouted softly: "Woman's kindness! Don't say that if you seize Haoran Qi, you must kill your master, even if there is another way, do you dare to keep your mouth alive? No temple will allow Haoran Qi to descend on that kid? Throw all these stupid kindnesses out to me, as long as there is a little rumor, we will all die without a place to be buried!"

Seeing that the old man was angry, the woman was a little scared, and said in a trembling voice: "Master Ji, don't be angry, the concubine is just afraid that if someone dies, it will not end well, and it is also for the sake of the lord, the concubine knows that she is wrong, and you are angry." ”

The old man picked up a piece of sauced beef, his anger decreased slightly, and he said vaguely while chewing: "Wealth and wealth are in danger, if this business is completed, the reward of that lord cannot be light, and when the time comes, don't say that it is the bottleneck of your Seven Realms, even the Nirvana Realm is not an extravagant hope." ”

The woman licked her lips excitedly when she heard this, and she had a unique flavor, but the white-haired old man on the opposite side obviously paid less attention to this beautiful woman than the sauced beef in front of her, which caused the woman to roll her eyes, and said in her heart: "The old immortal, it is estimated that the piece will not be able to do it for a long time, with my beauty, I dare not pick it, I am really an old king who has no master." ”

The old man didn't know what the woman was thinking, so he finished eating the sauce beef in front of him, got up and walked outside the restaurant, and said to the beautiful woman in his heart: "Don't meet again in the past two days, if you have something to discuss, find me through Zilintang, and when the matter is done, the benefits will be indispensable to you." ”

When the woman heard this, she drank the wine from the glass. Soon after the old man left, he also got up and twisted his waist and walked out, causing the men in the restaurant to whistle, and the woman threw a wink at the guests in the restaurant, and then slowly paced away.

————————————————————————————

Wei Cheng and Ye Fan chatted and walked, it was dark in winter, the two knew that they couldn't delay, so they quickened their pace and hurried away, until they saw the faint house in front of them, Ye Fan and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

"This town is called Stone Town, which belongs to Longquan County, and I've been here a few times. Although it is called Stone Town, the girls in that town look like a water spirit. If I can ask for such a beautiful daughter-in-law, I Wei Cheng will have no regrets in my life. ”

Ye Fan looked back at the man, saliva was about to flow out as he spoke, and reminded loudly: "There are still a few miles to go, let's sigh later." Find an inn to rest for one night, and leave before noon tomorrow, there will be no town on the way to Chongling Pass, buy everything well, so as not to make mistakes on the way. ”

Wei Cheng is not a person who doesn't know the severity, nodded, suddenly seemed to sense something, looked back, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"What's wrong, something fell halfway?"

The man turned around and waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay, just see if there is anyone behind you." Hurry up, I haven't drunk the stone wine in the town for a long time, and I'm hungry. ”

Ye Fan didn't care when he heard this, and walked silently with his head down.

The smile on the corner of Wei Cheng's mouth became more and more obscene, as if he had thought of something extremely unbearable, and Ye Fan frowned.

The man walked faster and faster, and the wind was blowing under his feet, and Ye Fan trotted to keep up.

I don't want to kill anyone, but if you seek your own death, I can't help it.

Wei Cheng thought helplessly as he walked.
