Bang! Bang!

The sound of slamming the door echoed in the silent night, and he tried his best to prop up one hand on the door of the Autumn Fang, and the other hand knocked impatiently.

Nongqi Street is one of the most deserted areas in Yisang Xicheng District. There is usually no foot traffic during the day, let alone late at night. In the past, this street was dedicated to white business. There were several large mansions nearby, but they were somehow deserted. Later, because of the cheap price of land, some merchants set up warehouses here. Gradually, there were some craftsmen who worked and opened several workshops here. Even so, there are still large areas of courtyards on Nong Qi Street that are idle. Some people who cause trouble often run here to hide, so there are also occasional catchers or charms to patronize.

Under the ghost mask, the eye sockets have completely turned purple-brown. The Gu poison attack became more and more intense, as if countless worms were gnawing at his stomach.

Generally speaking, it is rare for pharmacies to lock their doors so that patients do not have no way to seek medicine in the middle of the night. But he didn't have the heart to think about these now, he just thought that there were too few guests in Houqiufang, and the shopkeeper was not so thoughtful.

His patience was gradually exhausted, and he simply slapped his palm on the door. The deadbolt at the back was directly shattered, and the door panel slammed against the wall, bounced back, and then was knocked open by the shoulders of the rushing in, and slammed against the wall again. After a few loud bangs, dust and debris flew wildly, and even the beams of the house trembled a little.

It's just a toss, and it's changed to another pharmacy, and the shopkeeper or the guy is sleeping to death, and it's time to hurry out to greet him. But this Houqiufang is still not moving. Only one lizard, lying on top of the medicine cabinet directly opposite the door, silently watched everything.

In normal times, you will definitely be wary of these details. But now, under the rage, the twin fires burned his heart, coupled with the medicinal effect of the Gu, making him reckless and sluggish. I flipped over the counter and threw myself in front of the medicine cabinet. Its eyes suddenly turned purple, two sharp fangs protruded from under its upper lip, and its body was a little stronger. The wings of his nose fluttered like a wild beast, and in the blink of an eye, he sniffed out a few familiar smells of herbs, and immediately turned them out and grabbed them in his hands, and stuffed them directly into his mouth one by one, chewing them in embarrassment, no different from those victims who grabbed feed from their animals.

Ordinary people like him lose half their lives if they don't eat death. Fortunately, he has the ability to demonize, and his body is extremely strong. Because of this, he was able to resist the poison of the secret Gu and gain its buffs.

After eating a few handfuls, Hu barely suppressed the toxicity. In this way, the utilization rate of the medicinal properties of medicinal materials is extremely low, and he still needs to bring some back and prepare them into real medicine in order to remove the poison. He gasped for breath as he looked around.

Houqiufang is generally in the shape of a "concave" character. On the south side is the store door, and when you open the door, you enter the main hall, which is a place to do business. To the north is the backyard, where some common herbs are grown. There is a corridor between the main hall and the backyard. The corridor connects the bedroom and kitchen to the west, and the storeroom to the east.

I opened the curtain and entered the corridor, and when I sniffed my nose, I knew that the left side was occupied by people, and the right side was where medicinal herbs were placed. After sniffing it again, I felt a little strange.

The world of humans is determined by the eyes, while the world of beasts of prey is determined by the nose. Among the charms, there are not a few people who have the ability to demonize and beast like this. Scents flowed through his nose, weaving together a complex and vague map in his mind. At this moment, this Houqiu Fang was empty except for him, only a few lizards. The shopkeeper was not there, but the door was clearly plugged in from the inside. Could it be that they left through the back door? There were three people in this room. One was himself, the other was the same as the one in the bedroom on the left, which was supposed to be the shopkeeper of the Autumn Fang, and there was a smell that was fresh, every room, but not as strong as the second one, and it was not the one who lived here. But guests don't wander around and leave a smell in every room. Where are the guests in such a deserted time and place? And the smell is so fresh, if it is a guest, where is the shopkeeper now?

This autumn fang is not clean, and he thought to himself. But he is a charm general after all, and he is not much timid, but he is a little vigilant. If the shopkeeper is frosted (dead), or if his foundation is not clean, he will save a lot of things. Just thinking about it, he turned into the storeroom on the right.

······

In the secret room, Ying Yanshu fought and retreated, resisting the attack of the shopkeeper Cheng. Shopkeeper Cheng's demonized hard skin and strong fighting ability made him suffer, but fortunately, his soul - the eyes of the half-demon are already good at fighting, except for "eyes for life", there are no weird secret methods, so the shopkeeper Cheng has no mastery of magic, and Ying Yanshu can support it until now.

Shopkeeper Cheng is much more difficult than Ying Yanshu imagined, in addition to his strength, it is his almost treacherous prudence. From beginning to end, Boss Cheng has always occupied a favorable position, not allowing Ying Yanshu to have the opportunity to approach the exit of the secret passage. At first, Shopkeeper Cheng used the eyes of his palm to force himself back, but when he found out that he was not his opponent, he was no longer willing to pay the price of even one eye. Many times, Ying Yanshu, who was driven to a dead end, was like a gambler who fought everything, desperately stabbing at the eyes of the shopkeeper Cheng, but he let it go. He wanted to use the minimum price to put Ying Yanshu to death.

Ying Yanshu jumped backwards, dodging the close oppression of the boss, and at the same time silently recited the mantra, and before the shopkeeper Cheng approached again, a thrust with a golden shadow went straight to his heart. Before stabbing the skin of the shopkeeper in the middle of the way, the sword momentum of the Jade Willow Sword changed suddenly, and a golden sword arc came out of the blade and slashed on his chest. Ying Yanshu himself turned into a golden phantom, wore the process shopkeeper, and rushed to the exit.

However, at the moment when his phantom condensed, the shopkeeper Cheng turned half of his body and grabbed Ying Yanshu's ankle. Although Ying Yanshu said that he was thin, he was an adult man after all, but this weight seemed to be a drumstick in the hands of the shopkeeper Cheng, which was swept over his head and smashed in front of him with a very visual impact, smashing the bricks and stones to pieces. Ying Yan's book had an old wound in his body, and after this smash, his eyes couldn't see anything at that time, his consciousness was drowsy, the secret method and the internal strength of the protector were all dispersed, the broken sword rolled down from his hand, and blood came out of his mouth and nose together, but the bones didn't feel any pain at all, and he didn't even feel consciousness. Of course, the shopkeeper Cheng would not wait for him to slow down, and stepped forward with an arrow, and the palm knife cut through his throat.

Rao is Ying Yanshu has suffered a lot in the Ghost Gate over the years, and has an almost beastly intuition for death, so he grabbed the jade willow sword at hand again by instinct. Although it was still dark in front of him, he could feel the strong wind when the shopkeeper Cheng pounced. Biting the tip of his tongue, he forcibly picked up the sword book, and his body regained consciousness. His feet kicked upwards with the momentum of a carp, just supporting the shopkeeper Cheng, who was rushing in, and the palm knife would sweep over his throat.

Shopkeeper Cheng was stunned for a moment. He has killed many people, among which there are not a few people whose strength is stronger than Ying Yanshu, and no one can fight back after being beaten like this. Unexpectedly, this thief's reaction in the death match was so fast, it was definitely not a good stubble. Shopkeeper Cheng's eyes were cold, and the killing intent was a little stronger. Changing his palm to a claw, he grabbed the door of Ying Yanshu, and his fingertips ran towards his eye sockets.

Just when the shopkeeper Cheng was stunned, Ying Yanshu wanted to kick it away, but after the body consciousness recovered, the severe pain hit at the same time, and he couldn't use it anymore after just raising it a few points. And the claw of the shopkeeper Cheng also fell short because of this high point. But Boss Cheng's move made Ying Yanshu's legs, which were now unable to exert themselves, soften again. At this time, his eyes could barely see a figure, estimated the direction, and stabbed a sword into the chest of the shopkeeper Cheng. The golden light on the stubble of the broken sword condensed, and the moment it stabbed suddenly burst, shaking Cheng's shopkeeper open.

Temporarily dodging the catastrophe, Ying Yanshu propped up his body, stood up against the wall, and pointed forward with his broken sword. But the offensive of the shopkeeper Cheng did not strike again as he expected.

Ying Yanshu shook his head, and his consciousness gradually became clear. I saw the shopkeeper Cheng standing in place, his eyes were blank, and the pupils of dozens of demonic eyes on his body constricted together, as if he had fallen into some evil, and froze in place. Then he suddenly came back to his senses, looked at Ying Yanshu, his face was ugly, he pointed to the top of his head, made a silent gesture, and whispered: "Don't do it, otherwise neither of us will be able to get out of Yisang City." ”

Seeing that Ying Yanshu hadn't reacted yet, the shopkeeper Cheng whispered again: "Mix the black eaves." ”

Where people speak what words, black dialect is no exception, Yisang, Jingchuan, Liuze and other places have different black dialects, but only this "black eaves" is a common word, referring to the Xiling charm.

Boss Cheng's eyes rolled and asked, "Is it covered?"

Ying Yanshu reacted and shook his head.

Boss Cheng's face changed greatly, hesitated for a moment, turned his head and ran towards the entrance of the secret room.

Ying Yanshu remembered the lizard he had seen in the secret passage before, and thought of the sudden sneak attack of the shopkeeper Cheng, so he guessed in his heart. Those lizards are the eyeliner of the shopkeeper Cheng, and they were not evil just now, but through some kind of secret technique shared by the senses, they saw what happened on the Houqiu Fang. But no matter what, this chamber can't stay any longer. Either Boss Cheng will kill Mei Jiang and then come down to kill himself, or Mei will come down and arrest himself after solving Boss Cheng, or Mei will escape, and the entire Yisang City will become a death row, and there will be no way to live if you stay here anyway. Thinking of this, Ying Yanshu dragged his scarred body to follow. When passing by the stone platform, he did not forget the purpose of his trip, and took away the ancient scrolls sandwiched between the two glazed plates.

Besides, the shopkeeper Cheng hurriedly walked out of the secret passage, and before the soles of his feet landed on the floor of the warehouse, his heart was half cold—the charm general was standing in the middle of the room looking at him. I just came in, and when I saw Boss Cheng's dozens of demon eyes, my brows tightened, I didn't expect that the bottom of the shopkeeper of Houqiufang would be so clean. Looking at the entire charm department, there are few charm generals who have fought with puppet demons. The guys in charge of the sea are very good at this, but they are also first-class and ruthless characters in the charm department, which is enough to see how difficult the puppet demon is to deal with.

"The shopkeeper is not simple. "Take the first two steps," is there no interest, make a deal with the next. ”

Seeing this, Shopkeeper Cheng suppressed the eagerness in his heart, and stepped forward quietly: "How dare the villain negotiate a deal with the Xiling Charmer." ”

"The shopkeeper, the wise man does not speak secret words. Once this matter is exposed, it will not be good for you and me. I need some medicinal herbs, but I can't let the charm know about it. How about you make it easier for me to act as if I had never seen you before?"

"It turns out that the charm will also have a time when he can't see the light in his own home, so it's easy to do. Shopkeeper Cheng seemed to be smiling, and took a few steps forward, "But there is no basis for what you say, Your Excellency also asks me to give me a thing, so that the villain can rest assured." ”

As he spoke, Shopkeeper Cheng was already standing in the center of the warehouse face to face. This distance is already quite dangerous for the enemy. When he was hesitating whether the puppet demon in front of him was worth believing, the shopkeeper Cheng stretched out his hand and shook hands.

"What's that?" he hesitated, and although he stretched out his hand, he didn't really hold it.

Suddenly, the shopkeeper Cheng stepped forward with his right hand, grabbed his wrist, clasped his shoulder with his left hand, spread his left leg, and stomped on the ground with his right leg. The floor tiles shattered, and the cracks strangely drew a circle in the center of the storeroom, and then spread in all directions, climbing the walls and gathering on the ceiling, like a cage trapping the storeroom. A yellowish-black glow is reflected in it.

"What do you want to do?" shouted angrily, trying to escape, but the shopkeeper Cheng's body was like an anchor, firmly rooted in the ground, making it impossible to break free.

Furious, his left arm was raised, and the purple flames roared to wrap him, and a punch slammed into the face of the shopkeeper Cheng, blasting it upside down. The claws tore through the exhaustive tights, leaving five hideous blood marks on his arms. But at this time, he had no time to take care of these small injuries, turned around and went straight to the entrance of the warehouse, but he hit his head on a yellow-black barrier behind the door curtain, and took a few steps back. The barrier only dimmed slightly, and the two-color halo swirled, and in the blink of an eye, it was back to normal.

At this time, Ying Yanshu had just arrived at the entrance of the secret passage, and when he heard the sound of stone cracks above, he immediately picked up the secret method and jumped out. The moment he entered the storeroom, the yellow-black light poured out and condensed into a barrier under his feet, sealing the entrance to the secret passage. At the same time, the shopkeeper Cheng had just been blown away, slammed into the wall next to Ying Yanshu, and fell to the ground.

"Hey, you are not an opponent even if you are the shopkeeper of Liancheng. Seeing this, Ying Yanshu subconsciously laughed.

"If I were you, I wouldn't be able to laugh. Shopkeeper Cheng got up angrily, his face solemn, "Boy, I don't think you look like a person who doesn't know the times." I can spare your life, but if we don't tear down this black eaves, we'll both die. ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. Ying Yanshu smiled, "However, those who can work harder." ”

Shopkeeper Cheng glanced at him indifferently. Of course, he knew what Ying Yanshu meant, and he took the lead quickly, and the tall one took the lead first. But he really didn't have any room to think about it now.
