In the darkness of the wilderness, under a flickering campfire, confronted a stranger, and he opened his package, which contained a basket full of human heads!

Bloody and smelly!

If you can still be calm in this situation, then it is really a god. Xu Ning was not a god, and he didn't have the patience to ask, and after he felt that the person in front of him was in danger, his body instinctively defended it.

If you can kill someone, you can kill yourself, and if you don't want to be killed, you can do it in advance, which is a very simple truth.

It's not strange to encounter any strange things in the Soul Continent, there are always some perverts who do a lot of boring actions in order to satisfy their own needs. The "Coiling Dragon Sword" flashed in the hand behind him, suppressing the light of the bonfire.

I don't know if the sword light of the "Panlong Sword" is more terrifying, or the aura that erupts in Xu Ning's body is more terrifying, Mu Xuefeng on the opposite side is actually a little nervous. He hurriedly covered his bamboo basket, waved his hand apologetically and said, "This Brother Xu doesn't need to be too nervous, I'm not a murderer!" If I hadn't felt the anger in your body, I wouldn't have taken the initiative to open it for you to see, but I didn't expect it to be counterproductive. ”

Xu Ning said expressionlessly: "Brother Mu is too worried, this is just my instinct, the current environment is really suspicious, you and I met for the first time, and these things appeared again......"

"I understand, I understand......" Mu Xuefeng hurriedly explained, and then stretched his hand into his arms.

Xu Ning immediately became nervous, thinking that he was going to take out some weapon, but the tip of the Coiling Dragon Sword had already shifted from behind him to the side. He was sure to cut off his head before the other party made a move!

Who knows, what Mu Xuefeng took out was a small cloth bag.

After opening the cloth bag layer by layer, he handed one of the things inside to Xu Ning and said, "Brother Xu, don't worry, this thing can prove my identity." ”

Xu Ning was suspicious, took it and looked at it, and was also stunned!

Eagle Order! He turned out to be a bounty hunter of the Dongzhou Empire!

This side of the "Eagle Falcon Order" is made of gold, which is one level lower than his purple gold material, but it also shows that his ability is not low. His name is printed on the back. Xu Ning is also a bounty hunter himself. It can be seen that this brand is not fake.

"It turns out that Brother Mu is a bounty hunter, and he has offended a lot." Xu Ning's face improved slightly, and the long sword was immediately retracted.

Mu Xuefeng let out a sigh, wiped the sweat on his head and said, "Brother Xu actually knows the Eagle Falcon Order. It's just wonderful. Otherwise I'll have to explain for another half a day. ”

"Say so. There are ...... people here."

"They are all wanted criminals by the Dongzhou royal family, and they were all imprisoned in the prison of the Trilateral City, and last month they took advantage of the gap in organizing the martial arts competition. The guards were negligent in their supervision and escaped. Originally, these people also wanted to rectify the Fa, but in order to save trouble, I also kept my head behind. It's a lot of trouble along the way, and I don't even dare to live in an inn. ”

Mu Xuefeng said with a trace of tiredness on his face, Xu Ning found at this time that his face was like a white-faced scholar, and he looked good, but a scar appeared on the left side of his face, which was very obvious, otherwise he would still be a handsome guy, it was a pity.

However, being a bounty hunter is all about licking blood, so how easy is it to make money? It's good to survive in the end, but there are very few people who can be like Lu Tianming.

"Are you going to the Trilateral City on an errand?"

"Yes, the day after tomorrow will be the last day." Mu Xuefeng sighed, and sat down close to the bonfire with Xu Ning, the tiredness on his face became even more obvious. Xu Ning threw him a bottle of wine from his package and said, "The wine I bought on the road is not a good wine, just to warm my body." ”

"Thank you, thank you, this is the elixir and jade liquid for me!"

Mu Xuefeng gratefully opened the stopper, poured several sips on his face, and then the warm face of the bonfire gradually became a little ruddy.

However, Xu Ning still felt a little strange about him, this person spoke too steadily, it was simply leaky, could it be that this was also one of the necessary elements as a bounty hunter?

"I take the liberty of asking-" Mu Xuefeng wiped his mouth and said, "Brother Xu, did you go to Trilateral City for the martial arts competition the day after tomorrow?" I've seen several times along the way in the past few days. ”

Xu Ning said casually: "That's right, it's a martial arts competition." "But I muttered in my heart, what is a jousting tournament?

"Haha, I think Brother Xu, you are not shallow, at least you can enter the top 100!"

Xu Ning was stunned for a moment, thinking, is this praising me? Is the first 100 considered good?

He couldn't help but ask: "It seems that Brother Mu, you know a lot about the Biwu Conference, it's my first time here, and I want to ask for advice." ”

"Oh, this is nothing, I must know everything, I must say everything!"

Mu Xuefeng looked very excited, but his eyes were always steady, and there was even a hint of coldness. Normally, when people are excited, their eyes can't help but turn back and forth, and the frequency of blinking will be very high, but the corners of his mouth and expression change obviously, and his eyes are really as sharp as an eagle falcon.

"This tournament is only held once every three years, the specific time is uncertain, and there is no invitation, no news, just a notice posted at the head of the city. Even so, many people come here every year to participate, because the first place can be in charge of Jinmenglou for a year! ”

Dream Tower? Xu Ning suddenly remembered that Duanmu Thirteen had also told him about this place! What is the benefit of being in charge of such a place?

Since I don't know, I'd better ask less and listen more.

"The strange thing is that this martial arts tournament doesn't even have a name, and there is only one first place, and then a hundred winners will be selected, and anyone can make a request to the organizer, and the organizer, that is, Jin Menglou, will never refuse."

"Anything you want?" Xu Ning couldn't help but ask.

"How do you say this! Theoretically, no matter what the request Jin Menglou makes, he will not refuse, however, I am afraid that no one dares to mention the excessive request, most of them are for money, and some are for vendetta, if you try to subvert the regime of a small country, it can also be achieved. If it's too much, I'm afraid that if you go out, you will be destroyed. Mu Xuefeng said.

Xu Ning nodded, it seems that this martial arts competition is much more cruel than the family trials he has experienced.

"But a hundred winners, isn't that too many?" Xu Ning couldn't help but ask, "If everyone wants a huge amount of money, won't the organizer pay for his death?" ”

"Haha! Brother Xu, you don't know, a hundred people is already a few! At least 100,000 people have just added it each time! Money is no different from dung for Jin Menglou, and the people involved are not general, don't hide it from Brother Xu, I desperately try to arrest the prisoners, and I don't want to try lightly, because once you participate in the competition, you have to go to the end, either win or lose! And-" Mu Xuefeng's eyes changed, and he said: "The so-called loss is either disability or death!" ”

Xu Ning was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but feel a little chill in his heart!

If 100,000 people really participated, and the result was like this, wouldn't more than 99,000 people be killed or injured every time!

In this way, the people who participated in this game were all outlaws.

Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men!

"How can Jin Menglou have so much power to organize such a martial arts competition?" Xu Ning asked suspiciously.

This time it was Mu Xuefeng's turn to shake his head, and he said: "This question is not easy to answer, in fact, there are many people who want to inquire about Jin Menglou's background, but there is no hope of finding out at all." Because the three-sided city is so special, it is not only the border of Dongzhou, but also the border of Nanzhou and Zhongzhou, which belongs to the three-regardless zone. However, few people ask, after all, it is the most important thing to achieve the goal. ”

The wine was quickly drunk, Mu Xuefeng yawned, said a few painless words, and fell asleep leaning on the bamboo basket.

Xu Ning couldn't sleep at all now.

Just thinking about a bamboo basket with a human head nearby, this is enough to panic, plus such a stranger, I don't know if it's friend or foe, or work hard to be vigilant!

The questions in my heart were not satisfied because of Mu Xuefeng's explanation, but more and more, what kind of things were waiting for me in the trilateral city in front of me?

Just sit down and practice!

Xu Ning sat cross-legged in front of the bonfire, and gradually entered a realm of selflessness, and unconsciously, a cosmic illusion in the sea of consciousness slowly became clear, a sea of stars, and thousands of lights!

In reality, the dark clouds overhead slowly dispersed, and the starry sky flickered, making the earth even more lonely. The aura continued to enter the body, and the true qi continued to stimulate the martial arts, and the bonfire was blown to the side by this breath.

Entering the realm of selflessness and sleeping are two different things, Xu Ning will not only not lose his sensory senses, but will be more sensitive, the range of energy around him is getting bigger and bigger, and he can even feel the flames beating and the tiny insects in the grass wriggling.

"Anyway, it's come to this point, and the three things are easy to cut into first. If, as Duanmu 13 said, Trilateral City is a place where you can get information, you might as well participate in this so-called martial arts competition! ”

Xu Ning sat and thought, waiting for the red sun to rise in the east.

It was very stable, the loudest was the vigorous snoring, and the atmosphere around was very quiet, especially Mu Xuefeng, who Xu Ning had been paying attention to, as if he was really asleep, and there was no movement around him.

It seems that I am really careful, after all, this place still belongs to the Dongzhou Empire, and it is not a wild land in the north.

The aura around the body gradually disappeared, and of course the murderous aura disappeared, and the mood gradually returned to calm.

Xu Ning's breathing slowed down, quietly waiting for the dawn not far away...... (To be continued......)
