Chapter 1010: Zhou Leyu
Chapter 1010: Zhou Leyu
After believing that Lin Xuanzhong had not yet made a move, those people paid closer attention to Lin Xuanzhong, and as a result, Lin Xuanzhong's performance made them believe in their own ideas even more.
After surmising that Lin Xuanzhong's strength was very strong, those people paid attention to Lin Xuanzhong's identity again, so some people began to inquire, and they asked a few people who came in with Lin Xuanzhong just now.
At first, those people were not optimistic about Lin Xuanzhong at all, and thought that Lin Xuanzhong's sword could only be pawned to the martial arts hall cheaply, but now after hearing so many people say that Lin Xuanzhong has not made a move, they only feel incredible, and then excitedly spread Lin Xuanzhong's identity. In a blink of an eye, half of the people in the entire venue knew Lin Xuanzhong's name, and they also knew that Lin Xuanzhong had a sword on the counter.
As some people continued to preach, those who originally cheered for Lin Xuanzhong's opponent finally knew that it was Lin Xuanzhong who was really powerful. It was at this time that Lin Xuanzhong's opponent had not won by trying to attack by various methods, and his strength was already running out.
Seeing Lin Xuanzhong staring at him with a smile on his face at this moment, this person, who had long lost confidence, immediately became angry, launched several fierce attacks on Lin Xuanzhong, and then used his stunt as if he had been planning for a long time, an attack that was so fast that it was difficult to see with the naked eye.
An ordinary sixth-order martial cultivator might have been hit by it if he was unprepared, but Lin Xuanzhong, who was good at body techniques, avoided it with a simple sideways, and as a result, the person left alone continued to rush forward with an intermittent voice, "Hey, hey......"
In order to ensure that the opponent rushed out of the ring at one time, Lin Xuanzhong casually slapped the opponent's back with the blade of his sword. "Bang", the other party wanted to stop but couldn't.
"Ah," it may be that Lin Xuanzhong is not light, and the voice made by the person after being slapped has changed a little.
"Oh, my back," and when the man fell to the ground, there was another cry of pain. Regardless of his own image, the man directly touched the place where he was attacked by Lin Xuanzhong and cried out in pain, and then looked back at Lin Xuanzhong hatefully and said, "You are despicable, you actually attacked me behind your back, I don't accept it." ”
The man really looked unconvinced when he spoke, and people who didn't know would really think that Lin Xuanzhong was making a sneak attack from behind, but the other party's appearance was just more funny in Lin Xuanzhong's opinion.
"Concession," the victory or defeat aside, the process of fighting with the other party was indeed full of joy, and what made Lin Xuanzhong happiest was that when the opponent kept changing his way and attacking continuously, there was a little kung fu, and Lin Xuanzhong had a feeling like practicing a sword body. Even though he knew that it was an illusion, he was still very happy at the time, so now, out of gratitude, Lin Xuanzhong gestured to the other party.
"I'm not convinced, let's compare it in the future," he got up from the ground hatefully, recalling that he had used so much strength just now, but he didn't even touch Lin Xuanzhong's clothes, and in the end, if it wasn't for the mercy of the other party's subordinates, he might have already broken his skin, and after that person got up, he didn't dare to use offensive words anymore.
"Fourteenth wins," the two were talking, and the person in charge who had been waiting for the end of the competition walked over. Looking at Lin Xuanzhong again from top to bottom, with his seventh-order martial arts cultivation's eyesight, he actually had a feeling that he couldn't see through Lin Xuanzhong. Recalling Lin Xuanzhong's performance just now, this person became more and more confused about Lin Xuanzhong's specific strength.
"Please go to the hall ledger to claim the winning reward," after glancing at Lin Xuanzhong, Lin Xuanzhong's calm and surprising eyes surprised him even more.
"Okay," he agreed, Lin Xuanzhong handed the weapon to the martial arts personnel, and then returned to the hall under the guidance of another martial arts personnel.
"My lord, this guest officer has won the competition, please give out a reward," handing the number plate to the man behind the counter, the martial arts guy said to Lin Xuanzhong.
"Your name is Lin Feng?" After taking the number plate, the man glanced at their registration form.
"Well," nodded, the man in front of him didn't make Lin Xuanzhong feel familiar, and of course Lin Xuanzhong didn't want the other party to feel familiar.
"Pay ten pieces of jade, win and reward twenty pieces of jade, and two pieces of jade in the middle, and give you eight pieces of jade," After making a simple calculation, the man behind the counter took eight pieces of jade and put them on the counter, and then took the sword to Lin Xuanzhong.
"Thank you," the martial arts hall charged two pieces of jade as an intermediate fee, and also said that in the past, it was that the reward for winning came completely from the other party, which made Lin Xuanzhong feel unacceptable. According to Lin Xuanzhong's original guess, the martial arts hall should be at least partly produced, but unfortunately it is not like that.
Weighing the eight pieces of jade in my hand, I have the meal and accommodation fees tonight, I didn't expect it to be so easy to make money. It's easy to lose money just by thinking about it from another angle, I'm afraid that the person just now was still busy regretting it. When Lin Xuanzhong thought like this, the person who was competing with him just now appeared in sight, looking dejected, and his face was more ugly than being beaten for no reason while walking on the road and having no ability to take revenge.
When Lin Xuanzhong was about to laugh again, the man looked up and saw Lin Xuanzhong. Fang Cai had already figured out why he had lost, so he looked at each other, and although he noticed a hint of a smile in Lin Xuanzhong's eyes, that person still didn't dare to make any rude moves, and was about to pass past Lin Xuanzhong with his head down.
"You wait a minute," probably out of sympathy, Lin Xuanzhong called out to the other party.
"Dare to ask Brother Tai for any advice?" Raising his head to look at Lin Xuanzhong, the man asked a little nervously.
"What's your name?" The other party's nervous look made Lin Xuanzhong wonder why the other party was afraid of himself.
"Zhou Leyu, I don't know your honorable name?"
"Lin Feng. ”
"Brother Zhou, do you want to sit next door together?" Thinking of the scene where he was amused by the other party many times before, and then looking at the inn next to him, Lin Xuanzhong naturally issued an invitation.
"But I ......" Zhou Leyu waved his sleeves and gave Lin Xuanzhong a euphemistic hint.
"It's okay," shaking his head, Lin Xuanzhong didn't mind inviting Zhou Leyu to a meal. If you don't have enough money, then go to the martial arts gym to fight again.
"That's good, it's better to be respectful than to obey," Seeing that there was no hostility on Lin Xuanzhong's face, Zhou Leyu nodded with a smile.
"Guest officer, are you here?" The guy who received Lin Xuanzhong before also knew Lin Xuanzhong, and when he saw Lin Xuanzhong coming in with a friend, he immediately greeted him warmly.
"Two guest officers, please," After Lin Xuanzhong nodded to him briefly, the guy directly led the two of them to the inn.
Just in time for dinner, the hall was full of guests, and on the tables they carried weapons with them, some of them carrying packages. Because of the hot weather, some people were shirtless, and the smell in the hall was a little unpleasant, but the atmosphere was very lively, and the noise made people feel more comfortable.
"Go over there," he finally found a remote place, and pointed at it, and Lin Xuanzhong walked over.
"Guest, please forgive me, the place over there has been booked, and you see that there are still guests' things on the table. ”
It's a pity that the guy's apology directly dispelled Lin Xuanzhong's plan to find a secluded location.
"Guest, please take a seat," and with that, the two were ushered to a place in the middle of the hall. After simply wiping off the table, the guy greeted him more politely, "This is the menu, please take a look at it." ”
A piece of paper with the name of the dish and the corresponding price written on it was placed in front of the two of them, and the guy stood aside and waited patiently for the two to order.
According to the price marked on the menu, Lin Xuanzhong ordered a meal that was enough for two people, and then asked for some drinks, a total of two pieces of jade. The food at this inn is not expensive, but it is also not affordable.
"Brother Lin, I don't think you look like a city person?" As soon as the guy left, Zhou Leyu took the initiative to talk to Lin Xuanzhong.
"I just arrived in the city today, I don't know where Brother Zhou is from?" In order to prevent the other party from asking about his details, Lin Xuanzhong took the initiative to change the topic.
"Zhou is from this city!"
"And how much do you know about the things in the city?"
"From the secrets of the major families to the trivial matters of the common people, I know everything, if Brother Lin wants to know anything, just ask," under Lin Xuanzhong's inquiry, Zhou Leyu directly understood that Lin Xuanzhong's purpose for him to eat was to ask him about some things.
"What's the situation in the city now?"
"It's a good place, the city is an important stronghold of the Ni Family Chamber of Commerce, and there is an endless stream of merchants from all walks of life, and the order in the city is very stable. ”
"The Ling family is still the number one clan in the city?"
"That's natural, as the first partner of the Ni Family Chamber of Commerce, the Ling family enjoys enviable preferential treatment, it has developed rapidly in the past two years, and now it is firmly in the position of the largest clan, and its power is still expanding. However, the Ling family is not bad as the boss, and the major families in the city have food, and the order has been stabilized. ”
Zhou Leyu's evaluation was pertinent, and there was obvious envy in his tone. In any case, Zhou Leyu's short sentence gave Lin Xuanzhong a general understanding of the situation in the city.
"Brother Lin, is there anything else you want to ask?" Seeing that Lin Xuanzhong was silent, Zhou Leyu took the initiative to ask.
"No," knowing that the Ling family was good was enough, Lin Xuanzhong didn't want to know too much.
"Didn't you hear that the war between our Lan Kingdom and the Rao Kingdom was won, but the Ling Family Master's apprentice, the rumored Northern Regions, was unfortunately killed on the first day!"
"That incident has been rumored in the city, and there are people everywhere talking about it, which is a blow to the Ling family, because the Ling family's current status has something to do with that person," Zhou Leyu wondered why Lin Xuanzhong only asked one question, but it would be too embarrassing for the two to sit together and not say something.
"How much else do you know about that person named Lin Xuanzhong?"
"I heard that it was assassinated by the assassins arranged by the Rao army, but fortunately, the battle was won, and Lin Xuanzhong also left an elite army. It is said that Lin Xuanzhong is dead and the dragons are leaderless, and the top brass of the Blues are currently competing for those elites. ”
