Chapter Thirty-Seven: Small-Town Adventures

In the early morning, Wu Xi, who was sitting still, opened his eyes, turned his hands over, and stopped pranayama. After meditating all night, I finally temporarily suppressed my irritability. Turning his head to look, Zhong Ling was sleeping soundly on the chair, but there were still faint tears on his face, which made people feel distressed.

Wu Xi got up gently, walked to Zhong Ling's side, squatted down to look at her delicate face, and couldn't help but reach out to help her comb her hair in front of her forehead. Although she had tried her best to be careful, she almost woke up Zhong Ling, and the sleeping girl couldn't help but frown, but she muttered something she didn't know what to say, adjusted her posture and fell asleep again. Last night made her worry a lot, and as soon as Wu Xi sat down, he ignored anything, so that he couldn't hear it.

So, Zhong Ling, who was worried about him, endured the fishy smell of the house and waited for him for a night. Looking at the tired Zhong Ling, Wu Xi was a little moved, and lowered his head and kissed her forehead. Zhong Ling opened his sleepy eyes slightly, and called "Brother Wu......" glutinously

Then he came back to his senses and said in surprise: "Brother Wu, you're awake!" Great!" slammed into Wu Xi's arms, and then choked up again: "It's really scared to death, what's wrong with you?" No matter how I call you, you don't respond? ”

Wu Xi smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just a little tired and accidentally fell asleep." "Hmm" Zhong Ling didn't dwell on it, but asked, "Then where are we going next?" Wu Xi looked at Duan Yu and walked over to him to carefully check his condition.

Duan Yu's condition has improved a lot, the blood red of his skin has receded a lot, and the wound has no more pus. He was still in that weird position, his eyes were closed, but there was inevitably a foul smell from his body, of course no one laughed at him here, and the guys who might have laughed at him were lying on the ground now.

Wu Xi probed his pulse, opened his eyelids and looked at his pupils and said, "This person can't die, otherwise I will be busy in vain." Duan Yu's consciousness seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, and his eyelids were lifted and he didn't wake up, if it weren't for the pulse, Wu Xi would have felt that he was dead.

Holding his upper lip into a fist with his right hand and looking down for a moment, Wu Xi said: "This time it went very well, I still have some time, let's send him to his house first, well, you watch him here, I'll go down the mountain to buy something." ”

"But...... All right. Zhong Ling really wanted to follow Wu Xi all the time, but she was not ignorant, and she didn't say anything she wanted to go with after all. Wu Xi smiled and stroked her head, picked up Duan Yu and placed it in a side hall. After carefully admonishing Zhong Ling, Wu Xi went down the mountain.

Riding the yellow horse, Wu Xi walked very fast, and rushed to Qingliang Town at the bottom of the mountain before the temperature rose. This town is located in the intersection of Wuliang Mountain and Ailao Mountain, surrounded by mountains on three sides, the river flowing from north to south divides the two mountain ranges into two, and achieves the river dam of Pingchuan, because of the special geographical environment and climate, so that the four seasons here are like spring, so it is named cool.

At the same time, this place is also an important material turnover and distribution center on the ancient tea horse road, so it is relatively prosperous, and there is an endless stream of merchants, vehicles and horses. Walking to the entrance of the town, you can see many wine shops and inns, and the stables are full of livestock. Wu Xi looked at the town, thinking about what he needed, and suddenly, he stopped his glance and looked into a stable with interest.

In the stable was a handsome black horse, emaciated, but with slender limbs, majestic and high. The reins of the steed were not tied to the post, but they stood honestly in the stable, just eating the hay leisurely. It was honest, but the horses beside it did not dare to approach it at all, and I don't know if it was because of their shame or other reasons, they would rather crowd closely on both sides with the other horses than lean close to it.

Modern men love cars, ancient men love horses, Wu Xi saw this handsome and extraordinary BMW, and his heart also liked it tightly. He couldn't help but come closer, and reached out and touched the head of the horse. Wu Xi knew how to make the animal feel his kindness, and the horse did not reject him, let him touch it a few times, but ignored him proudly, and still chewed the grass by himself.

"Heh, you're good, a good horse to be proud of." Wu Xi curled the corners of his mouth and praised.

At this moment, there was a sudden snort, and a small black arrow flew out of the inn behind the stable and shot at Wu Xi. "Has anyone allowed you to move my horse?" A cold voice without the slightest warmth sounded, and it could be heard that it must have been said by a woman of temperament and indifference.

The speed of the small black arrow was extremely fast, but Wu Xi's body only shook slightly, and the small arrow missed by a millimeter, and it passed by Wu Xi by thousands of miles. Shrugged his shoulders indifferently, Wu Xi raised his voice and said: "I don't have any malice, it's just that I suddenly saw such a one-in-a-million horse, and I really couldn't help it." Saying that, Wu Xi walked towards the inn.

He seemed to be intimidated by his martial prowess, until he stepped into the inn, and the woman inside did not speak again. Wu Xi swept away, the time was already noon, and there were many diners sitting in the inn, of course, there were many martial arts people carrying various weapons. The scene just now was seen by many martial arts people, and they who usually talked loudly suddenly quieted down, which also made those ordinary people who didn't know the truth shut up, and the scene was a little silent for a while.

With Wu Xi's eyesight, it can be seen that among these dozens of people, only seven of them are still in the middle of the stream in martial arts, and the rest are at most ordinary people with weapons in their hands. The first one, of course, was the woman in black sitting by the window, her face was covered with a black cloth, and this image, together with the dark horse outside, directly told Wu Xi her identity. Four other young women in turquoise cloaks sat at a table, and Wu Xi noticed that they both had a black vulture embroidered on their chests, and there was some speculation in his heart, and he lost his mind for a while.

The other was the man in black sitting closest to the door, sitting alone at a table, with his head bowed and only caring about his own eating and drinking, seemingly unaware of what was happening around him, but giving people a gloomy and cold feeling. And the last one is walking towards Wu Xi

"Hello guest officer! What do you need? "This shopkeeper is very polite, the tone is kind, and the manners are decent, but there is no expression on the slightly chubby face, although there is also a hunched waist, but it gives people a very perfunctory sense of formalism, as if he doesn't really want to be polite, but only because he is forced by life to be like this.

"What are your good dishes?" As she spoke, Wu Xi walked towards the woman in black, and when the girl saw it, she slowly moved her hand to the long sword placed on the table.

"Guest officer, there is still a place in the northeast corner, please go over there with the villain." The shopkeeper bowed his waist and reminded in front of Wu Xi.

"Oh, but I want to talk to this girl, and tell me what the good dishes are." Wu Xi bypassed him and continued to walk towards the woman in black, who became more and more nervous, her whole body tensed, and she was ready to go.

A hint of fierceness flashed in the eyes of the shopkeeper, and he bowed his head and said nothing. Before Wu Xi approached, the girl had already raised her hand and shot a small arrow at Wu Xi, but the two were not at the same level at all, Wu Xi just stretched out his hand and clamped the small arrow in his hand, the girl wanted to make another move, but saw Wu Xi's figure disappear in a flash, and then felt a sore shoulder, and immediately felt that the whole body could not use the strength, and was shocked for a while.

"Why be so nervous? If I want to hurt you, I can do it in the blink of an eye. Wu Xi said slowly.

"Let go of me!" The girl was ashamed and angry, and struggled.

"It's him! It's true! Come on! A middle-aged man exclaimed, got up and ran directly to the door, his companion grabbed him and asked urgently, "Brother Duan, what's wrong?" What are you panicking about? The man said with a panicked face: "It's 'Blink of Death'!" His story must be true! He slaughtered two murderers from wealthy families in the blink of an eye, this kind of speed, you can't see it, it must be him, let's go! With that, he dragged his companion out of the inn.

The faces of almost all the martial arts people began to look ugly, obviously they had heard something, and they quickly ran away two-thirds of the way, but there were still some people who stayed, some who didn't believe it, and some who thought that they hadn't provoked Wu Xi.

"I'll ask you one thing, you horse, do you want to let me, I won't ask for it in vain." Wu Xi ignored these passers-by and small miscellaneous fish.

"Impossible! Unless I die! "There is little sign of being considered, and her personality is very stubborn.

Wu Xi pouted indifferently and walked towards the empty seat, and the shopkeeper took the opportunity to approach the woman in black, "Are you okay with this female guest officer?" Do you need me to help you call Lang Zhong? ”

"Smack!" "Who's going to want you to be nosy?" She suddenly drew her sword and used the spine of her sword to shave a very crisp ear of the shopkeeper, and her style was arrogant.

The shopkeeper was dizzy, and then raised his head, half of his face was torn, like a broken pottery, and his skin was shattered into pieces and fell off
