Chapter 21: The Golden Source
A cold breeze blew gently.
teased Bai Xiaofei's smart black hair.
Bai Xiaofei stood at the end of the alley, confronting the man in the cloak.
In an instant, a tense and anxious atmosphere suddenly set off in the dim and narrow alley.
"Who are you?"
Suddenly, the man in the cloak asked, with a hint of panic.
"Who am I?" Hearing this, Bai Xiaofei couldn't help but snort coldly, "It doesn't matter who I am......
"Although the last piece of meat on my skewer was lost by you...... And, although it's not spicy yet, it's ...... Naturally, I won't hold you on for this little thing, but...... Since you've stolen something, I can't sit idly by......"
Hearing this, the corners of the cloaked man's mouth couldn't help twitching slightly, listening to Bai Xiaofei's inexplicable and chaotic logic, in short, it was very far-fetched and made him very nerve-wracking......
"I didn't steal!
Suddenly, the man in the cloak, with a slight bite of his silver teeth, retorted.
"The madman doesn't say he's sick......!
As he spoke, Bai Xiaofei threw the bamboo stick towards the abandoned pile in the alley, and a white and black energy overflowed from his hands.
Seeing this, the man in the cloak couldn't help but take a few steps back in fear.
"Come on!"
Immediately, Bai Xiaofei stepped suddenly, and with the strength of a junior eight-star spirit master, it was really very different from before. With a slight jump, he quickly appeared in front of the man in the cloak.
Bai Xiaofei's flickering black right fist suddenly swung towards the man, but the other party couldn't help but have no defense, but protected his hands in front of his face in fear, and retreated a few steps back with trembling feet.
"Whew-"
Suddenly, a violent fist whistled past the man's ear, directly blowing off the man's cape that covered his face.
"Why not fight back?"
Under Bai Xiaofei's fierce questioning, the man in the cloak opened his eyes tremblingly, moved his arms tremblingly, and was shocked to find that Bai Xiaofei's flashing black iron fist only had a hair's distance between his arms.
With such an enemy who has no desire to fight back at all, it is difficult for Bai Xiaofei to convince himself to make a move against this kind of person.
The man who gradually came to his senses slowly lowered his hands and quietly stared at Bai Xiaofei, who was acting strangely.
However, what surprised Bai Xiaofei even more was that the moment the man lowered his arms, he could distinguish it even in the dim alley, and a face that was even more immature than him was revealed.
Bai Xiaofei didn't dare to imagine that the treasure thief he had chased for several streets was actually a teenager who was even younger than him.
"What's wrong?"
Suddenly, Luo Fan walked slowly from the other end of the alley and asked lightly.
Seeing Bai Xiaofei's eyes flashing, standing in front of the man with his back to him, Luo Fan couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
After the man in the cloak slowly turned around, Luo Fan gradually understood where the sluggishness on Bai Xiaofei's face came from.
"Hurry, hurry! I saw them all enter the dark alley in front of them, outflanking them from both sides!"
Suddenly, a swift and cunning voice came from outside the alley.
At this time, a burly man had led more than a dozen fierce men from both sides of the street to quickly approach the sides of the alley.
Suddenly, the burly man stopped at the entrance of the alley and looked into the alley slyly.
However, they were shocked to find that the narrow alley was empty, only a few men who arrived from the other side.
"Damn!"
"Did you see those guys running out over there?"
When the men on the other side heard this, they all shook their heads in astonishment.
Hearing this, the big man's face was tight, and the blood vessels on his forehead were about to burst out, but he still looked around the narrow alley unwillingly, couldn't help but curse fiercely, and then turned around and ordered: "Go!
After all the fierce men walked away, Bai Xiaofei, who was suspended in the middle of the alley, sighed slightly, Bai Xiaofei, who had long been accustomed to this kind of operation, was much more sophisticated compared to the young man who almost screamed if he hadn't been tightly covered by the former.
Bai Xiaofei couldn't help but glance at the group of men inadvertently with a disgusted look, but he was still keenly observed by Luo Fan and had a full view.
"Let's go back to the guest house first. ”
After the three of them slowly landed on the ground, Luo Fan suggested lightly.
Hearing this, Bai Xiaofei also nodded lightly, and quietly returned to the guest house with the young man and Luo Fan.
in the guest house.
Under the illumination of the spar that shone with a bright white light, I saw that this young man was also like Bai Xiaofei, gobbling up the newly ordered meal.
Looking at a mirror image of himself like this, Bai Xiaofei couldn't help but laugh a few times, thinking: Could it be that this guy is like himself, he hasn't eaten for three or four days?
"Whew-"
After eating the food on the table in a very short time, the young man couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief from his tiredness.
Seeing this, Luo Fan hugged his hand to his chest, Liu Mei couldn't help but move slightly, and asked lightly: "Can you explain to us the reason for this matter......?"
Hearing this, the young man also calmed down, and told Bai Xiaofei and Luo Fan about his experience: "My name is Jin Yuan, and I was originally on the way to travel and train. Before passing through this town, I accidentally forgot all my money in the last guest house. But at that time, it was also dark, and the round trip was not short, so I had to take a spiritual weapon and an ancestral jade pendant that I carried with me, and temporarily mortgage it to the auction house. However, they lent me a few gold coins at the time, and out of desperation, I had no choice but to accept them. However, when I got the money back again, they turned the money they had borrowed from me into a high price, and not only robbed me of all the money I had just recovered, but also detained the artifact and bracelet under the threat that it would still not be enough to repay the debt. That bracelet was very important to me, but today, they wanted to auction off the jade pendant, so I ......"
Saying that, Jin Yuan couldn't help but bite it again, and sighed helplessly.
Hearing this, Bai Xiaofei and Luo Fan looked at each other slightly for a moment, but they didn't hear anything suspicious from this person's mouth, and they both nodded to each other immediately.
However, Luo Fan became interested in the spiritual artifact sensory that Jin Yuan said, and asked, "Where did the spiritual artifact you said come from? Normally, even a high-level spirit master would be able to see an ordinary low-level spiritual weapon?"
Hearing this, Jin Yuan hesitated for a moment, as if there was something unspeakable, and then glanced at Luo Fan and Bai Xiaofei's expressions that had no other intentions, before slowly confiding: "Actually, I am from a family that has been manufacturing spiritual weapons for generations, and that 'Ling Tiangong' is a gift given to me by my grandfather before I came out to practice. ”
When Luo Fan heard this, his two pairs of curious eyes couldn't help but blink slightly and looked at them carefully, and then asked, "The family origin of the spirit artifact?"
Jin Yuanxuan was about to put his hand into his shirt, and after a while, he took out something wrapped in fine silk, and slowly turned the fine silk open, only to see a cyan jade pendant revealed from it.
Luo Fan carefully inspected the jade pendant, and the jade pendant was clearly engraved with the three small words "Imperial Artifact Workshop", which made her slightly startled, and finally gently returned it to Jin Yuan's hand, and said lightly: "Sure enough, it is a family that manufactures spiritual weapons, and it is right to be careful." ”
"What do you mean?"
"A spiritual weapon, within a certain level, can be used as a weapon that rivals a powerful spiritual method. However, there are very few families with the special skill of making spiritual weapons, and all the strength will do everything they can to get out of it. However, for a descendant who walks outside, if he is targeted, he is likely to be grabbed by the small black house and forced to be a spiritual weapon for a lifetime. ”
Hearing this, although Bai Xiaofei didn't know if Luo Fan had any exaggerated ingredients in it, it was really terrifying to hear it like this. Bai Xiaofei was surprised for a moment, and then couldn't help but look at the young man named Jin Yuan with a different look.
"Well, that's pretty much it. Jin Yuan also nodded slightly, agreeing with Luo Fan's statement.
"Wow, I didn't expect you guy to look quite timid, but it turned out to be so hidden!
After listening to Luo Fan's explanation, Bai Xiaofei couldn't help but be slightly startled again, and said with a faint sigh.
Hearing this, Jin Yuan scratched his head embarrassedly, smiled ashamedly, and said, "The craftsmanship passed down from the ancestors is nothing too remarkable. ”
"Ancestor, then why did you choose to travel alone......? Are you going to be caught in the little black room?" Bai Xiaofei was slightly startled, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled, and following his own train of thought, the more he thought about it, the more terrifying it became.
"Well, I'm very timid, as you saw just now, I don't dare to fight when I'm nervous. So this time, I begged my family for a long time before I agreed to go to McRader Academy for a trial. ”
"You're going to McRader Academy too?"
Hearing this, Luo Fan on the side was also attracted by the topic of the two, blinked his smart eyes, and asked curiously.
"What, is it possible?"
Hearing Luo Fan ask, Jin Yuan was also slightly stunned, and then saw Luo Fan and Bai Xiaofei looking at each other and smiling slightly.
Bai Xiaofei smiled at the corner of his mouth, and proposed to Jin Yuan: "Since they are all going to one place, why don't we go together?"
Hearing this, Jin Yuan was slightly stunned, and then a look of joy came out of his face, and his slightly dull eyes revealed his unbelievable emotions, but he hesitated for a long time, and couldn't help but bow his head and said, "I'm so timid, I'm afraid it will only hold you back......"
Suddenly, Jin Yuan felt a calm palm on his shoulder, and when he looked up, he saw Bai Xiaofei smiling slightly, and asked rhetorically: "Didn't you come out to practice this time just to temper your courage and strength?"
Hearing this, Jin Yuan's heart was suddenly touched by Bai Xiaofei's words, and he looked at Bai Xiaofei and Luo Fan's trusting faces a little sluggishly, his eyes couldn't help but wet slightly, and an irrepressible tear wanted to burst out of his eyes.
Jin Yuan excitedly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and nodded deeply towards Bai Xiaofei with his efforts.
Seeing this, Bai Xiaofei smiled at Luo Fan again, and couldn't help but say excitedly: "Now I can justifiably help you snatch the spirit weapon back from the auction!"
Hearing this, Luo Fan couldn't help but smile lightly, she had already known that Bai Xiaofei would not sit idly by and ignore this matter, but she was just waiting for a suitable reason and opportunity. As for Jin Yuan on the side, tears poured out even more unstoppable when he heard it.
Immediately, Bai Xiaofei couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, the corners of his mouth rose to a weird arc, and he smiled slyly: "In this way, I can also reasonably let you pay me for my super big skewers!"
"Huh?"
