Chapter 31: The Last Battle of Wantong City (1)
When it was almost evening, a not very small town appeared in front of Su Xu and his party, the lights in the town illuminated the street very brightly, everyone walked for a day, and they were sleepy and wanted to find a place to rest, Yi Wushuang stepped forward to stop a passing fellow and asked.
"Uncle, what kind of place is this?"
The uncle was in his fifties, dressed as an ordinary countryman, carrying a bundle of firewood behind him, and replied with a slumped body.
"This place is called Qikong Bridge, it is the last town in the sphere of influence of Wantong City, and it will be two days further south to the range of Tianjian Villa, I see how you are dressed, are you also here to participate in the trial?"
Yi Wushuang nodded and smiled, acknowledging his identity, and the uncle said enthusiastically after hearing this.
"A few of you are late, there are too many people who have been going to participate in the trial recently, and the inns in the town have been chartered by them, and you are afraid that you will not be able to find the inn to get down the tower at this time. “
Yi Wushuang was a little embarrassed, touched his nose and said with a smile.
"I'm glad I met you, and you happen to have a place to stay, right?"
The uncle was a little embarrassed after being seen through, he put down the firewood, straightened up and said embarrassedly.
"A few days ago, a few people spent the night in my backyard, if you don't have a place to live, you can go to my house, just give as much as you want, what do you think?"
It turns out that there is a reason for the uncle's enthusiasm, and everyone who has recently gone to participate in the trial will prepare the final supplies here at the Qikong Bridge, because there will be no more human habitation within two or three days after leaving the Qikong Bridge, Yi Wushuang looked at Su Xu with a smug face, Su Xu rolled his eyes and then said.
"Then it's troublesome uncle~!"
The middle-aged uncle smiled honestly, carried the firewood on the ground hard, and said to everyone.
"Come with me!"
Everyone followed the uncle all the way to a dilapidated courtyard and stopped, and it could be seen that although the courtyard was dilapidated but had been tidied up by the honest uncle, he pushed the door in, the yard was cleaned very clean, and there was a small garden, there were several wooden beds in the house, and the bedding on the beds was new.
Uncle said embarrassedly.
"This yard is my brother's house in the past, no one has lived since he disappeared, if there are no guests like you recently, I don't bother to clean up, although the yard is dilapidated, but it can live in. ”
"Thank you uncle, it's very nice here. ”
Su Xu stepped forward and took out a gold ingot from his arms and handed it to the uncle, and the uncle's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said.
"It doesn't take so much, and the money buys the whole yard and makes it rich. ”
Su Xu said with a smile;
"Don't get in the way, you can be regarded as helping us, this is as it should be, you just take it. ”
Su Xu stuffed the gold ingot into his uncle's hand and continued.
"Uncle, is there a place in this town where we can buy means of transportation, we want to buy a few horses. ”
The uncle shook his head and muttered.
"As you can see, our place is a poor and remote township, and if it weren't for this trial, who would know if we were going to do business here. ”
Su Xu thought about it, so he said to his uncle.
"Thank you very much. ”
"Rest, and if you need anything, go to the front yard and find me. ”
After the uncle left, Su Xu and the others came to the coffee table, spread out the map, looked at their location and said.
"All the way south, in more than two days, we will reach the Red Leaf Valley, and when we get there, we will enter the range of the Heavenly Sword Villa, and we will stay there for about ten days to adjust, waiting for the trial to begin. ”
At this time, Yi Wushuang had already turned the room around, and he ran to Su Xu and said.
"I've seen it, how can we sleep with only four beds in the room for the five of us?"
Su Xu was stunned for a moment, turned around and said to Yi Wushuang.
"Why do you always focus differently than we do?"
Yi Wushuang shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands and said.
"Eating, bathing, sleeping, and soaking feet are the four most basic requirements for traveling, if you can't meet them, then how can you have the energy to do something else?"
Everyone stared at Yi Wushuang with black lines on their faces, and Yi Wushuang knew that he was bored, so he simply walked to a bed, lay down, closed his eyes, and muttered.
"Originally, people live for a lifetime to seize the time to enjoy, and cultivation is also to live for a long time to enjoy. ”
All:.....
Su Xu said to Bai Ziyu.
"You three go and rest, I'll stay here for the night. ”
Outside Qikongqiao Town, a group of more than a dozen black shadows were galloping rapidly in the direction of the town, waiting for more than two miles away from the town before everyone stopped, the first person was sturdy, playing with two big iron balls in his hand and standing on a high place to look down.
At this time, three people walked up to them and stopped, and one of them said to the second master with a scowl.
"Brother Luan Chun, the three of us brothers couldn't leave the kid surnamed Qiu, just because there was a guy next to him who was too weird, and he had something that seemed to restrain us very much. ”
The real name of the second boss is Luan Chun, and he is the younger brother of the Black Dragon Mountain bandit Kou Luan Shixiong, and they were also instructed by the Sun family to rob and kill Qiu Shuzhi.
Luan Chun squinted at the boss of Wushan and said with a sinister look.
"It's a shame that you still call Wushan Sanyou, you can't even deal with the hairy boy in the god refining period, and you have been repelled by others several times, your cheeks are really not ordinary. ”
Otomo was not ashamed and wanted to justify these failures a few times, but was stopped by a look from Luan Chun, he sighed and continued.
"Do you know where they are?"
"Inside the southernmost courtyard of town"
Otomo then said.
"Do you want to clean up a few of them again?"
Otomo's head shook like a rattle.
"We won't go, we decided to go back to Dongshengzhou, return the bounty to the Sun family, and the three of us brothers will find a place to retreat, and we will definitely not come out to walk again until we reach Judan Jiupin." ”
When Dayou said this, he had a determined expression, they were deflated in the hands of Su Xu and the others, and they were indeed better than Su Xu and a few others in terms of cultivation, but the water between cultivation and cultivation is also uneven, some of the cultivation of the same realm can fight beyond the level, and some can only bully those who are weaker than their own cultivation, this is the gap, and it is also related to their own cultivation.
Luan Chun waved his hand and signaled the three of them to get out of here, now Luan Chun saw that the three of them were angry and didn't fight together, and it was because the Sun family didn't pay him for killing the three friends, otherwise Luan Chun wouldn't mind taking care of the three of them.
Sanyou is gone, and with the determination to not do it and take revenge afterwards, we will embark on the journey home, let's look forward to the time when Sanyou will return again.
Luan Chun looked at the gradually darkening sky and said to everyone.
"Our goal is just Qiu Shuzhi, retreat immediately after raising the head, don't clash with the young lady of the Baili family, and the rest of the people, Hong Zhenyuan, will contain us for a while. ”
"Second master, do you think the master of the Qiu family has also reached the Seven Hole Bridge?"
Luan Chun pondered and spoke.
"It's hard to say, but with Hong Zhenyuan, he should be able to handle it. ”
On Qikongqiao Street, a young man in a gorgeous costume was slowly wandering on the street, and inadvertently spread out his divine vision, wondering if there was a master of the Judan period in this town, and a wisp of divine vision was killed not far from the south, Hong Zhenyuan smiled and said to himself.
"There are really people who are secretly protecting"
Hong Zhenyuan's purpose was to take Baili Lihua away, and he had no interest in other people, but he knew that as long as he appeared in front of Baili Lihua, Baili Lihua would not go back with him, so he cooperated with Luan Chun to kill all the people who were with Baili Lihua, so that he also broke Baili Lihua's thoughts, and turned around to take her back to warn that the outside world was not as beautiful as she thought, and that only when she was strong could she protect herself or protect others, so that she could understand the cruelty of the cultivation world.
Even he wanted Baili Pear Blossom to appear again when he was about to despair, and it would be better to have a hero to save the beauty or something, so everyone who was with Baili Pear Blossom had to die, and he used a few lives to exchange for his position in Baili Pear Blossom's heart, Hong Zhenyuan felt that it was worth it.
He walked straight to a tea shop in the south, there were a few people sitting in the tea shop, it was dusk when the business of the tea shop was average, and most of them were still in the restaurant and restaurant.
Hong Zhenyuan walked to a thin old man and sat down at the table, he didn't ask for anything but stared at the old man who was drinking tea with his eyes, the old man looked like he was in his sixties, with a thin face, long gray hair casually draped, and a rustic outfit, most people thought he was just an old farmer in the countryside.
"Isn't it a bit rude to kill someone else's god at will?"
Hong Zhenyuan sat down and asked directly.
"Then do you know that it is also very rude to visit other people's cultivation at will?"
The old man took a sip of the teacup and said casually.
"Who you haven't asked yet?"
"It's just someone else's dog, there's no need for someone like you to remember the name. ”
Hong Zhenyuan's hand tapped lightly on the tea table, and when he heard the old man's answer, he didn't have the slightest anger, he was still smiling, but his fingers were slightly bent, and then a sword qi burst out from his fingers, and the semicircular sword qi slashed towards the old man against the tea table.
The old man used the power of his leg with one foot to let his body open sideways, dodging Hong Zhenyuan's sword qi attack, the sword qi crossed the old man's chest, cut a gap, and the sword qi slashed at the log supporting the pergola of the tea shop without slowing down.
"Boom"
The log was cut off by the sword qi, and there was a loud bang, and the pergola of the entire tea shop collapsed instantly, and Hong Zhenyuan flashed out of the tea shop, and the sword qi in his hand was pointed out again and again.
"Boom Boom Boom"
The entire tea shop was razed to the ground by a few sword qi of Hong Zhenyuan, and Hong Zhenyuan floated in the air, watching the smoke and dust gradually dissipate, his brows furrowed.
