Chapter 38: It's You Who Shoots (1)
The boy walked into a tavern called Bidrunken Ke and asked for a big bowl of milk tea.
Seeing that he is not very old, there is a sense of maturity in his eyes that is extremely inconsistent with his age. The boy found a window seat and sat down, deliberately keeping no one else from noticing. This position is close to the corner, and the young man is dressed in black and does not speak, and even the green sign "No Smoking" on the side is much more conspicuous than him.
Only the boy knew, although in the eyes of others, he was just a young child. In fact, he turned out to be an important wanted criminal with a reward of 100,000 gold coins from the Empire.
The young man drank the tea very slowly, deliberately delaying the time in the tavern, he listened carefully to the conversation of the passing merchants, but did not interject, deliberately listening to something.
The drunken guest is the gathering place of information in Tianxiang City, even if the big things that can't be talked about casually above the high hall, they are all drunk people laughing and talking here.
The environment of Tianxiang City, and too many major events that have occurred recently, are all topics here, dragons and snakes are mixed, and even the children of the old Wang family next door don't look like him, they are all the words in their mouths.
Suddenly, two people sat down at the table next to the boy, and the conversation between the two attracted the boy's attention.
These two people are fat and thin, the fat one is particularly short, the height is limited to the stool, the thin one is like a flat pole, and the curved back is clumped, as if it will fall down at the touch of it. It's a strange thing for two people to sit together in such a strange way.
And only the faintly glowing fairy curtain on the back of their hands showed their identities as cultivators, which was daunting.
"Hey, Liu Er! I heard that there is no palace for the competition and the registration fee is only 200 gold coins now. One of the thin men shouted loudly, for fear that others would not hear.
"Didn't you have to pay the registration fee of 5,000 gold coins before? What, now the price has been reduced?" the fat man named Zhang Er asked with his head raised.
This thin flat dan is called Ma Liu, he is a famous local butcher, and he has taught himself a set of cultivation skills, and his strength has reached the primary realm of immortals, and the faint red displayed on the immortal curtain is very rich, which proves that he is already a master who is about to enter the intermediate level of immortals.
"I guess it's for salary, and I've even relaxed my age to 30. However, I heard that there is only one place to enter the finals, so I don't know if there is a chance to take my turn. Ma Liu said vaguely, after all, there are masters within the age of thirty in Tianxiang City, and a person like him who has not yet entered the middle stage of the immortal is not qualified to compete with those real masters.
"Yes, don't forget, Xiao Wei's waste can enter the qualifiers, how can our buddies be better than him, pay 100 gold coins, let's try." The fat man named Zhang Er said disdainfully, obviously taking Xiao Wei in his mouth as a negative teaching material.
"Yes, yes, if we win, we will become horses, and that is a matter of glory to the ancestors. Ma Liu said excitedly.
"Once invested, report for life. "That's the mentality of buying lottery tickets.
And the boy sitting in the corner of the tavern drinking tea is Xiao Wei.
The young man was very depressed, and he was scolded when he came to drink tea, and he was afraid of being a famous pig, not to mention that he was still a fat pig that had been roasted and put on a plate.
"So, I can also win the genius?" Ma Liu raised the back of his hand high, deliberately showing off the color on his fairy screen, and the people next to him all made envious sounds.
Although Ma Liu did not have any high-level strength, he immediately entered the intermediate level of immortals, but he was still an existence worth showing off among civilians.
The former Xiao Wei was a legendary genius, if he hadn't lost his immortal energy, he wouldn't have fallen to the point of being ridiculed by these people.
"If Xiao Wei really comes, Lao Tzu can fight ten!" Zhang Eryi raised his hand, and the red color on his arm undoubtedly revealed his strength in the middle stage of the immortal.
"Wow, you're refining again! It's not a loss that you're the overlord of the whole street. The people next to him kept boasting for him, and Ma Liu was a little embarrassed to cover the fairy curtain on the back of his left hand.
The young man next to him just smiled bitterly and continued to drink tea, and he didn't say anything, after all, he was indeed a waste, and he didn't blame others for talking about himself.
"That Xiao Wei must be a wild seed, otherwise how could he suddenly lose his immortal energy? Haha, maybe it's my species. As he spoke, perhaps a little weak-hearted, he put his hand on the young man's table and knocked the silver to the ground.
The young man couldn't listen anymore, picked up the cup, put it back on his table, and walked over to Zhang Er's side.
"Don't talk so ugly, is it? Everyone has a time when they are in trouble, and it is okay that Xiao Wei can rise again. The young man deliberately reminded Zhang Er not to speak too badly.
"I'm sorry. Zhang Er hurriedly replied.
It would have been a loss to rub off other people's cups, but when he saw Zhang Er seeing a faint and even inconspicuous faint blush on the back of the young man's hand, he knew that he was just a junior immortal who had just been promoted, and he instantly became very disdainful.
"You don't have a fairy spirit and dare to meddle with Lao Tzu's affairs?" Zhang Er actually changed his face.
Under the gap in strength, changing your face is definitely faster than turning a book. This time the teenager got angry.
"I can't help myself!"
"Listening to the tone of his voice, I thought he was a master, this kind of cultivation is not as good as my son. ”
Mocking voices could be heard all over the tavern. Xiao Wei couldn't bear it anymore, anyway, he was already a wanted criminal, and he didn't care about adding a few more crimes.
Open the fairy curtain and place the giant ruler sword in a convenient place.
"I really want to hear you say bad things about Xiao Wei just now, right?" Xiao Wei said this, and his eyes turned blood-red.
"Say, what's the matter, you're beating me!" Zhang Er continued to shout.
"Okay!" A gust of wind rushed from behind the young man, and no one saw what it was, so they slapped Zhang Er and Ma Liu on the wall.
And the line is not finished.
The young man didn't use the knife, he didn't use the sword, he actually held the door panel to call people, did things neatly, and ran very fast, before the people next to him could react, the young man had already disappeared in the busy alley.
"Who is this young man, what kind of weapon is he holding?" asked the boss with his mouth open in surprise, why did he forget that he still had a glass of wine in his hand, and directly gave the guest a full shoe.
And the guests looked at the two people who were stuck to the wall for a long time. I was very scared in my heart, are young people so violent now, and they will admit it if they don't agree.
Where did this young man pull out the door panel, from the moment he entered the door, I saw him drinking tea in a muffled voice, and I didn't see him with a weapon, nor did I see any other helpers.
Tianxiang City has recently Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and you can't easily say anything offensive in the future.
"It's bad luck today. Xiao Wei complained to himself as he walked. I originally wanted to inquire about the news of the palace and the competition to recruit relatives, and quietly moved in.
This door panel goes down, and it is estimated that he has become more attention-grabbing.
The place where the boy was going was the palace, and although it was a bit of a self-defeating place for a wanted criminal, he had to go too, because there was his fate waiting for him.
"Don't go, kid in front, duel with me!"
A voice came from behind Xiao Wei, and a shoe that had not been washed insole flew over.
