Chapter 1008: Hit the Road

"Useless things, even a seriously injured high-level martial cultivator can't deal with it," When all the outsiders dispersed, the gaze of the second elder of the Qi family slowly stopped on Qi Mu.

"Great Elder, my nephew thinks that person may be an eighth-order martial cultivator!" was scolded by the second elder of the Qi family, and the middle-aged man's face was ugly.

"Fart, the old man has never seen such a young eighth-order martial cultivator in his life for so many years, you don't shirk yourself. After going back, he went to the Great Elder to receive the punishment. ”

"Yes," under the reprimand of the second elder of the Qi family, Qi Mu agreed with an ugly face. No matter what kind of cultivation Lin Xuanzhong is, today's matter is indeed unfavorable for him.

"A few of you chase after me, be sure to bring the body back to me," after pointing to a few juniors in the clan, the second elder of the Qi family continued: "The others follow me to the previous inn and wait." ”

"Yes," the group of people agreed one after another, and in a blink of an eye, the people of the Qi family were divided into two parts. By this time, Lin Xuanzhong was about to leave the town. Because people often go out hunting, a stone road leads to a wide dirt road, and further on, there are many forks in the main road, and the winding paths lead in unknown directions. After a brief consideration, Lin Xuanzhong decided to continue driving along the main road.

"Drive," A little further on, a figure on a horse appeared in sight on the side. Judging by the speed at which the two are traveling, the other party will stop in front of them. When Lin Xuanzhong was worried about whether it would be someone from the Qi family, a familiar voice came, "Brother Lin, wait for me." ”

As soon as he heard Wen Chengruo's voice, and then saw that Wen Chengruo was not catching up from behind, Lin Xuanzhong directly slowed down.

"Woo ......" Not long after, Wen Chengruo, who was carrying a package, stopped in front of Lin Xuanzhong.

"Wen Chengruo, why are you here?"

"The people of the Qi family said that the secret weapon is poisonous, I brought you some antidote medicine, don't you want to try it, is it useful?" Wen Chengruo panted and looked at Lin Xuanzhong with a worried expression.

"I'm fine, that poison can't hurt me," raised the injured arm to show Wen Chengruo, Lin Xuanzhong was very surprised that Wen Chengruo would take the risk to come over and inform himself.

"Brother Lin, you are really a strange person," looked at Lin Xuanzhong's freely moving arm with a surprised face, and then looked at Lin Xuanzhong's face was very normal, Wen Chengruo nodded hurriedly and said: "There is still some dry food in the package, you take it to eat on the road, and the people of the Qi family will soon catch up, you can leave quickly." ”

"Okay, there will be a period later," taking the package thrown by Wen Chengruo with one hand, Lin Xuanzhong's reaction was very decisive.

"This road can go around to the east gate of the city in front, you just keep walking along this road, there will be a period later," the Qi family's approach let Wen Chengruo know that Lin Xuanzhong was a good person, but the two had no chance to get along, after showing Lin Xuanzhong the way, Wen Chengruo quickly turned around and returned from the other direction. At the same time, Lin Xuanzhong hit the road again.

Huang Lao fed the crossbow horses well, and the crossbow horses ran very fast, and in a blink of an eye, the town behind them had become a phantom.

An hour later, Lin Xuanzhong relaxed, and seeing that the people of the Qi family did not catch up, Lin Xuanzhong slowed down. After running for more than an hour, he has entered the wilderness area.

Maybe because there are hunters who often come to this place, as far as the eye can see, Lin Xuanzhong did not find any traces of fierce beasts around. Because of the injury, Lin Xuanzhong planned to find a secluded place to recuperate, and this time he didn't plan to go to a place where people lived, but to find a deserted area. It just so happened that Wen Chengruo had given some food before, and he should be able to find other food before eating those things. The main problem at the moment is that the Qi family's people may not give up and will search along the way, so they have to go a little farther away.

So, under a round of scorching sun, Lin Xuanzhong rode a horse and galloped all the way to the depths of the wilderness, and met some hunting martial artists on the way. I also saw a crowd gathering in a place, like bandits blocking the road and robbing, but they all passed by at a glance, and before I knew it, half an hour had passed.

After feeling safe, Lin Xuanzhong stopped in a forest, tied the horse to a tree, and then opened the package to check how much dry food was inside. As a result, it was all dried meat, not dry food.

Dried meat will be troublesome to eat, but if you look closely, it seems that it is all cooked meat, and after chewing two bites, it tastes good. Unexpectedly, Wen Chengruo gave cooked meat, and when he was surprised by this, Lin Xuanzhong looked at the amount again, and he could probably eat it for a day or two. However, according to Lin Xuanzhong's plan, next, one person and one horse may have to spend a few days in the forest, so after eating the dried meat, they have to find food by themselves.

When Lin Xuanzhong stopped, the Qi family members who were originally in charge of finding Lin Xuanzhong's body had already told the Qi family elders the news of Lin Xuanzhong's disappearance. The elder of the Qi family, who was drinking tea quietly in the inn, suddenly changed his face after getting the news, in his opinion, Lin Xuanzhong was definitely dead, but now that there was no trace, it was very strange, so the elder of the Qi family hurriedly sent more people to find it, to see people alive, and to see corpses when they died.

It's a pity that the people who sent out didn't find any trace of Lin Xuanzhong except for the horseshoe prints on the ground, and they chased it for more than 20 miles, and when they chased it to the vicinity of the city in front, because of the comings and goings of people from all walks of life, the horseshoe prints had disappeared, so the Qi family could only look around for someone to inquire about Lin Xuanzhong's whereabouts.

After looking around, the people who had seen Lin Xuanzhong before pointed them in a direction, but after entering the wasteland, Lin Xuanzhong's specific location was unknown.

After tracing this point, the Qi family can be sure that no matter what the reason, Lin Xuanzhong must not have been poisoned and died, and now he is missing.

Now they have two choices, one is to continue the investigation, and the other is to give up, and the two options make them very difficult. Previously, when Lin Xuanzhong was injured, they could fight against the seventh-order martial cultivators without falling behind, and it was conceivable that when Lin Xuanzhong's injuries healed, their Qi family would be in a catastrophe, but they had already used a lot of manpower this time, and they didn't think in advance that they would let Lin Xuanzhong escape.

When they inquired about the situation, those people pointed in more than one direction, if they scattered to find Lin Xuanzhong, it would be no different from sending him to death; if they concentrated manpower to find him, it would take a lot of time, and he didn't know when he would find it, so in the evening, when the people of the Qi family converged on the east side of the city, they were worried one by one. Including the second elder of the Qi family, no one had a good face.

"Second Elder, what is going on now?"

"Leave some people to continue looking for that person, and the others will go back with me to return to their lives," the second elder of the Qi family no longer had the confidence on his face that he had succeeded in the town before, and his face was gloomy. The matter was not done well, it was difficult to deal with it after going back, and this matter was very important, not only could not be concealed, but also could not be concealed, originally wanted to come out to find face for the Qi family, but it turned out to be a * annoyance, at this moment, the feeling of dilemma in the heart of the second elder of the Qi family is particularly strong.

After staying in the city for one night, the Qi family officially divided into two parts, one part stayed to search for Lin Xuanzhong's traces, and the other part went back to recover his life. It is worth mentioning that those who are responsible for finding Lin Xuanzhong cannot approach Lin Xuanzhong until they are sure that they can make a move, this is the explanation of the second elder of the Qi family before leaving.

No matter what the Qi family planned, Lin Xuanzhong, who had entered the wilderness, was now busy healing. Without waiting for the injury to heal, Lin Xuanzhong would not leave that forest.

Time passed little by little, and the news that Lin Xuanzhong killed the Qi family outside Cloud City a few days ago had already spread in Cloud City, and it also made Cloud City panic.

According to many people's speculation, Lin Xuanzhong's strength must have surpassed the level of the seventh order of the Martial Realm, but on the surface he was an ordinary martial cultivator. If someone from any family encounters Lin Xuanzhong when they are blocking the road and robbing him, no one will want to have good fruits to eat, especially after some people continue to exaggerate Lin Xuanzhong's strength and describe Lin Xuanzhong's appearance indiscriminately, causing some forces to be even more jealous of the rumored Lin Xuanzhong.

The more ferocious the rumors, the better it would be for those ordinary merchants and martial cultivators, as Lin Xuanzhong's actions reduced the oppression they might receive.

In addition, it was precisely because of Lin Xuanzhong's righteous act that the people of the City Lord's Mansion began to play a role, and they have been trying to maintain order in and outside the city recently.

It's funny to say that the positive behavior of the City Lord's Mansion is related to an incident that happened in the city before. It was not long after the night army captured West Wind City, and Lin Xuanzhong went with the army to the side of Cloud City to kill the beasts. There were also Princess Lan Xin and others, and that time, the prince of the City Lord's Mansion didn't have long eyes to provoke the princess of the Blue Country. Therefore, in order to be cautious, the City Lord's Mansion decided to keep a low profile for a while.

And under the news that the Qi family sent people to hunt down Lin Xuanzhong, many forces were paying attention to the progress of the matter. If the people of the Qi family succeed, then they can bully others as they did in the past, and if the people of the Qi family fail, then they will have to cooperate with the requirements of the City Lord's Mansion to be people with their tails between their legs from now on.

In fact, Lin Xuanzhong never thought that because of his impulsiveness, he would bring such a big change to Cloud City. In any case, those who were influenced by Lin Xuanzhong understood the meaning of reverence for the strong.

Lin Xuanzhong alone brought such a big change to a city, and the impact was even greater for those who had been with Lin Xuanzhong, especially Zhang Yulong. Since entering the city, Zhang Yulong has changed his previous instincts, and practiced the physical skills taught by Lin Xuanzhong all day in the dilapidated house where they lived, hoping that one day he would be as feared as Lin Xuanzhong.

Of course, these were not situations that Lin Xuanzhong needed to care about, and a few days later, Lin Xuanzhong, whose injuries had improved greatly, set foot on the southbound road again.
