Chapter 37: Gangsters

Ma Xie and Qi Nanfeng walked forward for a while, stopping in an open place, at this moment there was only a dead tree behind them, and the black shadow was hidden behind the dead tree.

"Come out, I already knew you were behind. Ma Xie said to the tree.

After waiting for a while, a figure walked out from behind, and the figure kept walking in, and Ma Xie saw clearly that this person was not a faceless woman, but a man with a silver mask.

"Who are you?" asked Ma Xie.

The man was silent for a moment and replied: "Shaoxia, I am a merchant in Tianguang City, I encountered a robbery by bandits on the way, and I ended up here, because I was forced to steal the things of the caravan last night, I hope that Shaoxia will forgive me." "Tianguang City is the city adjacent to Tianwu City, and this road is the only way for Tianguang City to reach Tianwu City.

Ma Xie continued to ask, "Then why do you want to follow me? I don't have any extra food on me. ”

The man hesitated for a moment and said, "Did the young man pick up something?"

Ma Xie didn't hide it, and took out the token in his hand, "Is this token?"

Lu Jia's eyes lit up, and he wanted to take it away, but he still held back, and said: "It's this token, this token is a relic left by my eldest brother, and I hope the young man will return it! ”

Ma Xie thought about it, this person just stole a few pieces of dry food, and returned the token to Lu A, who was very excited after getting the token and kept thanking Ma Xie.

Qi Nanfeng laughed: "You are a merchant, the caravan was robbed and you didn't go to the customs, but you followed us to find this token, is this token more important than your goods?"

Lu Jia said embarrassedly: "This little girl, this token is a relic of my eldest brother, I must not lose it, as for the goods, I will go to report to the official immediately." ”

"Then tell me, where were you robbed, and what kind of goods were you transporting?" Qi Nanfeng saw that this person was hiding something, and asked deliberately.

"I ...... I'm up front...... Not far away. Lu A said a little hesitantly.

Ma Xie looked at his embarrassed appearance, and said to Nanfeng: "Forget Nanfeng, this brother must have something unspeakable to hide, so he has something to hide from us, so don't be embarrassed for him." ”

Nanfeng smiled at Ma Xie: "Brother Ma, I listen to you." ”

With that, the two of them left with Aman, leaving the masked man standing there, and soon he chased after him in the direction where Ma Xie had left.

"You say, who was that person just now?" Qi Nanfeng was still a little curious.

Ma Xie shook his head, he didn't really care about this issue: "I don't know, it's not a bad person anyway." ”

"Oh? Why?"

"Intuition......" Ma Xie said firmly, "Intuition tells me that he is not a bad person. ”

Qi Nanfeng laughed: "Intuition, what else does intuition tell you?"

"My gut also told me we should meet again. Ma Xie said.

It turns out that Ma Xie's intuition is really accurate, which Qi Nanfeng also has to admire. At noon, there was a sudden rainstorm, and Ma Xie was fine, but Qi Nanfeng and Aman urgently needed a place to hide from the rain, so the three of them could only hide in a ruined temple on the side of the road.

The rain continued to fall into the evening, and just as Ma Xie was packing up the ground and preparing to spend the night here, a man recklessly barged in.

The person who came was the masked man.

Sure enough, we met again. Ma Xie said with a smile.

Seeing that it was Ma Xie and Qi Nanfeng, the masked man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes, Shaoxia, it seems that I have to borrow the precious land today." ”

Ma Xie took out dry food and distributed it to this person, he knew that this person had nothing on him.

The masked man devoured a few mouthfuls of dry food, and then began to talk to Ma Xie.

It turned out that this person's name was Zhou Leisheng, who lived in Tianguang City, and was not a businessman, but a scholar. Although he said so, Ma Xie and Qi Nanfeng didn't believe it, this person must have some secrets.

But they all meet in the water, so why bother to be strong?

After the four of them finished eating, they were all a little tired, so they didn't say much and went to sleep.

Not long after he fell asleep, Ma Xie heard a commotion outside, and after a while, seven or eight men with standard weapons broke in from the temple.

"Fuck! let that kid run away again, and if we don't catch that kid, the boss will kill a few of us!" one of the men shouted.

Another man said, "It's okay, that kid must have followed this road to Tianwu City, and he won't be able to go far!"

Several people crowded into the temple together, lit a fire and found that there were already people in the temple, and Ma Xie was holding a long sword in his hand at the moment, looking at them.

"Hey! The man who took the lead said, but obviously didn't take Ma Xie in his eyes, just glanced at Qi Nanfeng behind Ma Xie, but soon, his eyes fell on Zhou Leisheng in the corner.

The big man looked at Zhou Leisheng for a while, and suddenly laughed loudly: "Hahaha! It's really effortless! I didn't expect you kid to be here." ”

Zhou Leisheng was surprised and said, "Who are you? I don't know you." ”

The man ignored it, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, the two men behind him stepped forward and subdued Zhou Leisheng.

Ma Xie was about to make a move, but was stopped by Qi Nanfeng, who said, "Wait first." ”

Zhou Leisheng kept struggling, shouting for the big man to let go of himself, but the big man smiled coldly: "Liang Jiu! I've been chasing you for more than half a month, and I still don't recognize you?

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and tore off Zhou Leisheng's mask.

At this time, there was a thunderclap, and the big man saw Zhou Leisheng's face clearly through the electric light, and this person's face was as if it had been cut by a knife, and there was no complete piece of flesh and skin.

"I*, what the hell, you're a human or a ghost. Dahan was taken aback.

The two people who were pressing Zhou Leisheng also let go of their hands, obviously this person was not the Liang Jiu they were looking for.

"My name is Zhou Leisheng, not Liang Jiu!" Zhou Leisheng said a little angrily: "I was born like this, so I wear a mask." ”

With that, Liang Jiu put on his mask and sat back in the corner.

But Dahan still didn't give up, and asked, "Are you coming from Tianguang City?" We have been staring at that Liang Jiu for half a month, and we are missing here, you must be that kid pretending!" said and instructed his subordinates to suppress Zhou Leisheng.

At this time, Ma Xie couldn't stand it anymore, he walked over and lightly slapped two palms, this is the two-handed melee palm technique "Luoying Palm" he learned in "Xuanyang Nine Lives", which "pushed" the two people out and saved Zhou Leisheng.

"People are obviously not the people you are looking for, why are you so rude!" Ma Xie asked.

The big man raised his knife and pointed at Ma Xie: "Is there really anyone who is nosy? Do you know that our 'Flying Tiger Gang' is acting even if the city lord of Tianwu City sees it, he will walk around?"

As he spoke, a group of big men surrounded the four of them.
