Eighth: Lost and regained

When Liu Hui came out of Tongle Fang, the sky was completely dark, and the guys and gamblers in Tongle Fang ran cleanly, and the entire Tongle Fang was completely dark, but there were still some light spots outside.

No, it's a big fire.

When Ji Lin saw Liu Hui coming out, he hurriedly caught up, and behind him was a team of Yin family guards, each holding a torch.

"Brother Liu, are you alright?"

"Why are you here?" Liu Hui saw Ji Lin, who didn't have a good face for him in the morning, trotting over, and looked at him with awe in his eyes.

"Haha, Brother Liu's deeds of defeating Cui Hu, the owner of Tongle Fang, have spread all over the town!" Ji Lin rubbed his palms, as if he was also involved in the battle, "Second Miss sent us over to see if you need help, hehe, by the way, help Brother Liu take over this Tongle Fang!"

Liu Hui nodded and said, "You came just in time, I need someone to take me to the Jinyu Chamber of Commerce!"

"That's fine. After explaining to him, he came back again and said, "I'll take you personally!"

If you say that the most powerful people in Lansha Town are the Xu family where the Yin family and the town mayor are located, if you say that the most unprovoked ones are the Tongle Fang and the mysterious Jinyu Chamber of Commerce that have been destroyed.

The news that Tongle Fang was killed by a mysterious medicine boy of the Yin family spread to all corners of the town as soon as possible, and the Jinyu Chamber of Commerce was no exception, and they even knew that the medicine boy was rushing to their side at the moment.

"Shopkeeper, you've been studying this stone tablet for a few days, do you see anything special?

On the second floor of the Jinyu Chamber of Commerce, a young man with an unruly face with a long sword on his back poured his saliva and asked an old man in fancy clothes sitting next to him.

Seeing that the old man did not raise his head or speak, he continued: "People are about to find the door!" He put down the water glass, found a chair and sat down.

This old man is the person in charge of the Jinyu Chamber of Commerce, and outsiders call him the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper still didn't look up, he held a gray-white stone tablet two inches long and two inches wide in his hand, and looked at it over and over, his face full of doubts.

After a long time, he finally shook his head in discouragement, put the stone tablet in his sleeve again, and then sighed: "Alas! Maybe it's because of my lack of ability!"

He glanced at the young man with a regretful look and continued: "When I received this thing from Cui Hu, I felt that it was extraordinary, not to mention the age, through the research of these days, I found that there are traces of formation patterns on the surface of it, and I can still feel a trace of charm under the exploration of spiritual power, I estimate that the appearance I see now is not what it was original." ”

"So it shouldn't be a mortal thing, you can't tell what it is, you can return it to headquarters, although I don't want to admit it, but those old things in the Council of Elders still have a few brushes!"

"Sneerβ€”β€”!" Zhu shopkeeper sneered, and said disdainfully: "It's not that I look down on them, compared with them, I may not be as good as the fighting heart, but if you need to have extensive knowledge and eyesight to distinguish and appreciate, that group of old things who are vegetarian are also difficult to beat, even if they are lucky enough to know what this stone tablet is, it also proves that it is very precious, but what good is this for us?"

The young man knew that the old man in front of him would have complaints about the elders of the General Chamber of Commerce, and it was impossible for anyone who was excluded to the point where he could only be the shopkeeper in such a barren town where there were no monks, and then he thought about himself, because he was also unpopular and was arranged to be on duty in such a place with thin vitality, and it became difficult to improve his cultivation.

For a while, both of them were a little concerned.

"Later, the medicine boy will come to ask for it, do you plan to give it back to him?" the young man asked in a loud voice, breaking the silence.

"Why not? In this kind of ghost place, it's rare to meet an interesting person, so it's good to have a good relationship. ”

In fact, the young man had the same idea, and in his opinion, no matter how good things were, they were no different from waste, but given his status, he still had to ask, "Does he have this qualification?"

"You should know Cui Hu's background very well, right?"

The young man didn't understand what the shopkeeper meant, Cui Hu's information was still the investigation he had done, of course he knew it, but he still slowly said Cui Hu's situation after thinking about it: "Cui Hu's original name was Zou Tianhu, ten years ago, he was chased and killed by a big force for some reason, and after being destroyed, he escaped by luck, and finally changed his face and lived in seclusion in this Lansha Town, which is ......"

The shopkeeper shook his head and interrupted: "I didn't mean that, I asked about his strength, what are your chances of winning against him?"

At the mention of this, the young man's momentum immediately became fierce, and he said confidently: "That Zou Tianhu had the strength of the advanced level of the Solid God Realm ten years ago, but his strength was greatly damaged after he was injured, and his cultivation in this Blue Sand Town for ten years will only continue to degenerate, it would be good to be able to retain the primary strength of the Solid God Realm, and I am ten percent sure that I will defeat him within a hundred rounds against him!"

"What about the medicine boy?" asked the shopkeeper with squinted eyes.

"When he fought against Zou Tianhu, I was far away, and I didn't see it too clearly, but I also saw seven, seven, eight, eight, and eight, to be honest, he didn't have any skills in fighting, and if it sounded good, it was open and closed, and if it was bad, it was clumsy and laborious, but at that time, I seemed to hear that Zou Tianhu exclaimed, he was 'Awakened Monk'?!" The young man's face became serious as he spoke, he stood up and frowned, pinched his chin and continued: "If it is true, then I may not be an opponent!"

"He is indeed an Awakened Monk!, and he is a very rare Earth Mutant Sand Species!" Zhu Shopkeeper's eyes flickered, full of deep meaning.

Obviously, this is a good idea of how the shopkeeper is advanced and knows more about the details of the battle at that time.

The young man did not doubt the words of the shopkeeper in the slightest, he gasped, and his expression became excited.

"Okay, he's coming soon, you go change your clothes and let Yingxue go out to meet you. ”

The young man looked at the night coat on his body, shrugged his shoulders and disappeared with a leap.

Ji Lin took Liu Hui towards the block where the Jinyu Chamber of Commerce was located, and he could see that Liu Hui was anxious, so he deliberately accelerated his pace.

Liu Hui had a lot of wounds and blood stains on his body, and the medicine boy's robe was also badly damaged. Ji Lin had suggested that he deal with his injuries a little and change his clothes by the way, but he refused, the message on the cloth seemed to remind him of the possible whereabouts of the stone tablet, and he now just wanted to determine whether this information was true as soon as possible.

Along the way, Ji Lin told Liu Hui all the information he knew about the Jinyu Chamber of Commerce, and repeatedly told him not to venture forward. The Jinyu Chamber of Commerce has a mysterious origin, and its strength is by no means comparable to Cui Hu. However, he could also see that Liu Hui didn't listen to it much, thinking that the stone tablet was really very important to him, so important that he did not hesitate to risk his life. He could only sigh in his heart, hoping that the situation would not be too bad by then.

"Okay, the three-story Qiong Building in front of you is the Jinyu Chamber of Commerce. Ji Lin pointed ahead and said.

Liu Hui had actually seen it a long time ago, and it was too conspicuous in this dark night. Compared with other places, the Qiong Tower is much taller and more majestic, the Qiong Building is surrounded by palace lamps and all floors are hung with palace lights, under the shroud of the palace lantern light, the whole Qiong Tower looks exquisitely bright.

and near.

The two found that in addition to the two doormen guarding the door, there was also a figure standing with his hands in his hands, his face was not clear under the light, and the figure seemed to be a woman, and there seemed to be something tied to his back, which was very large and beyond the top of the person's head.

When the two of them arrived at the gate of the Jinyu Chamber of Commerce, they saw that it was really a woman, the woman's appearance was extremely beautiful, her skin was very good and shining under the light, her face was delicate, but her chest was surprisingly majestic. But the eyes of the two were attracted by the big sword behind her at the same time, the sword body was white, glowing with cold light, and it was a foot wide, which was much wider than a woman's waist, and the big sword was carried by her on her back, and through the tip of the sword outside, it was roughly judged that the big sword was seven feet long. The great sword looked out of place when she carried it on her back, but it was extremely harmonious, as if she and the great sword were one.

This reminded Liu Hui of his cang.

"Are you here to find the shopkeeper?" the woman interrupted the two of them with a voice, her voice cold and emotionless.

"Yes!" the woman asked, obviously waiting for him here, thinking about it, Liu Hui couldn't help but look forward to it, and didn't care how the other party knew that he would come.

"This way, please!" the woman gestured sideways to invite.

Liu Hui did not hesitate, and walked inside, at this time, even the Longtan Tiger's Den had to go for a walk.

"I'll go with you!" Ji Lin was a little worried, so he wanted to accompany him in.

"You can't go in!" As soon as the woman's voice fell, two doormen instantly stopped in front of Ji Lin.

Liu Hui stopped and turned around, glanced at Ji Lin gratefully, signaled him to wait for him to come out with peace of mind, and then turned around and followed the woman inside.

After about a cup of tea, Ji Lin saw Liu Hui walking down from the Qiong Building of the Jinyu Chamber of Commerce.

The original tattered medicine boy robe on his body has been replaced with a blue gold silk and white-edged silk robe, a blue belt is still tied around his waist, and he has white silk boots on his feet.

No, Ji Lin hurriedly shook his head, what is this, didn't he ask for something? Why did he come down so quickly, and he also changed his clothes? But what did his expression mean? Why did he look satisfied and uncertain?

When Liu Hui walked to Ji Lin's side, Ji Lin patted him on the shoulder and asked, "Brother Liu, are you okay?"

"It's okay!"

Ji Lin didn't believe that he was okay when he saw that he was frowning and hadn't come back to his senses, so he continued to ask, "Are you really okay?"

"Wow!" Liu Hui spread out his palm, and the gray stone plaque appeared in his palm, indicating that he had indeed found his own things, seeing that Ji Lin was going to ask something, he took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go back, the things are in hand, and there is no point in thinking about anything else!"

After saying that, he strode away, and Ji Lin, who was full of questions, had no choice but to shake his head and leave.

To be honest, Liu Hui himself has not figured out the situation now, the process of finding the mustard stele has gone through twists and turns, and the process of returning to his hands is as simple as child's play.

Before entering the Jinyu Chamber of Commerce, he thought of a lot of possibilities, maybe the cloth strip was fake news, and waiting for him would be a trap; maybe the news was true, but the stone tablet was transferred to other people; maybe he would be caught by the people of the Jinyu Chamber of Commerce, and forced him to explain the origin and use of the stone card, he was even ready for a big battle, but he never expected that he was taken by the woman with the big sword to change his clothes, and then someone took out the precious medicine powder to help him clean up and heal the external injuries on his body, and there were two maids to comb him, he resolutely refused to say that he didn't want to waste any more time, he just wanted to see the shopkeeper as soon as possible, and the other party gave up。

After he was taken by the woman with a big sword on his back to see the shopkeeper, the old man with a smile on his face didn't say anything, so he returned the stone tablet to him with a smile, and he knew that it was indeed his mustard seed tablet.

At that time, he really couldn't understand what medicine was being sold in the gourd of the Jinyu Chamber of Commerce, so he asked straight to the point:

"If you return the stone tablet to me, what price will I pay?"

"You don't have to pay any price, I'll introduce you to two young people. The shopkeeper Zhu pointed to the beautiful woman with a big sword on his back who led him in and another young man with a long sword that he didn't notice much and introduced: "The two of them are my right-hand men, one is called Zhu Yingxue, the other is called Zhu Yingjian, they are both good in martial arts, they are about the same age as you, you can usually communicate more." ”

Liu Hui noticed that the two looked somewhat similar, they should be twins, the woman with the big sword on her back still had a calm face, and she couldn't see any expression on her face, while the man with the long sword on her back was flushed, and she couldn't help but say something.

"Yes!" His mind is not on making friends now, he just responds casually, and he doesn't suffer a loss anyway, he stared at the shopkeeper Zhu again and asked, "And then?"

"Haha, then you can go!" Zhu shopkeeper looked calm, and couldn't help but laugh when he saw Liu Hui's still guarded expression.

Liu Hui came out of the Jinyu Chamber of Commerce with a stomach full of questions.
