Chapter 130: Savage Boy
The people at the table were talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was not frozen at all, and Jiang Yiqing felt strange in his heart, maybe he was really worried, how could there be so many alchemists in this world, how could there be so many people from big families who came out to practice, besides, even if they came out to practice, they all went to developed cities.
"Then where is Brother Wenren going?" Jiang Yiqing finally couldn't help but ask, if he was going to Heaven and Earth City, then it might be very likely that he was a disciple of the big family, if not, it was that he was too worried.
"Don't tell you Brother Jiang, the three of us have agreed to go to Sunset City to cultivate, I heard that the Sunset Battle there is famous far and wide, maybe that's a way for us to become stronger. Hong Mingtian didn't wait for Zheng Jia to speak before he spoke, he knew that Jiang Yiqing was from Sunset City, as soon as this sentence came out, as he wished, Jiang Yiqing became interested and asked:
"Sunset City? you said that this world is so small, the three of us are from Sunset City, I think you should all know, now it's okay, there are people to go with, the road will not be so boring, let's set off after eating." ”
This is exactly what Hong Mingtian thought, this is almost the case, he will still be so two-handed, and he agreed without any hesitation, and the group ended lunch in the rest of the words, Jiang Yiqing asked him to pay, Zheng Jia and the others did not rush to pay, otherwise this would not give face to the quadruple alchemist, and no one would be stupid enough to do such a stupid approach.
......
"Quick! don't let him run! Damn it, this beast slipped into the woods more nimble than the monkey, fuck!" It was the middle of the night, and what should have been calm was suddenly shattered by a discordant voice, a man who was still quite burly, roared hoarsely.
In a forest, there were four fires flickering, but they could only look for something aimlessly in one place, but although the firelight brought light to the four of them, how could this faint light illuminate the surrounding darkness?
"The shopkeeper's dissipation, dissipation, and anger are not worth it. It's a big deal to go to that little rabbit's house tomorrow to get something back, and it's not that I don't know where his house is. Another man with a relatively thin figure stepped forward to soothe his anger, but who would have thought that he would be thrown away by one hand.
"How do you want me to dissipate my anger? That kid stole so many of my precious medicinal materials, you said that you can dissipate your anger? No, dare you love you, this is to embarrass an old woman?" The man's anger did not decrease but increased, and he almost started to beat people.
"Okay cousin, don't you just let go of that face, yes, I'll go and get those medicinal materials back for you tomorrow, it's the middle of the night now, the big guy has to work early tomorrow, go back." The other also came forward to dissuade him, and the man could be regarded as stopping, and led the rest of the people back with a cold snort.
And in a still hidden and dark place, at last there was a little movement, and a thin figure emerged from a bush, because the surrounding environment was too dark, the figure's facial features were completely unclear, and he could only vaguely distinguish that he was probably a sixteen or seventeen-year-old "boy".
The "boy" has no upper body, his skin is full of sludge and dirty water, even the lower half of his body has only a little fig leaf, blocking the most shameful parts, he didn't even wear shoes, I don't know if he is poor or what, he still looks faintly pitiful, except for some medicinal herbs in his arms, the only thing that makes people feel a little bit of identity is a sign hanging on the rag.
As for what is written on the sign, at least it is not clear now, the "boy" is vigorous, and after a few rubs, he jumps to the treetops, shuttling between the treetops and the treetops, which really responds to the man's words "as flexible as a monkey".
After a short time, the "boy" came to a thatched house, and a faint and weak moan could be heard coming from inside, and the "boy" immediately flew into the thatched house, and came to a room in which lay an old woman in her seventies, and this moan came from her mouth.
The room is very simple score, no, it should not be described by the word simple score, it should be said that it is very shabby, and even the foot of the bed is broken, the only repair is to use a few pieces of soil to pile up, the bedding on the bed has faded for I don't know how long, the patches on the top are less than twenty, the roof also blows a gust of autumn wind from time to time, and a little frost and dew, the coolness hits, if it rains, isn't it in line with the sentence "There is no dry place in front of the house, and the rain feet are not broken"?
Hurriedly probed the old woman's forehead with the back of his hand, it was not an ordinary hot, and immediately put down the medicinal herbs in his hand, and scooped some water to pour it into a pot that had been burned black, the pot was not big, but boiling some water was not a problem.
But here's the problem, if you say it's a kitchen, there won't even be a stove around, and if you say it's a firewood room, there's only one tripod shelf, and this pot is boiling water on this shelf, and not even a drop of oil and salt has ever been seen.
"Po Zhao, come, drink water. When the water was boiled, the boy carefully fed the water in a rough voice, like a little old man of fifty or sixty years old.
......
Luo Tianzhen is more than 200 miles away from Sunset City, and the six people must have to walk for a long time, so after settling the account, they went to the horse store to buy six horses, no, it only took four days to arrive in Sunset City.
At the gate of the city, Jiang Yiqing first walked to the city guard, the city guard opened the city gate without saying a word, and the five people behind him were let go without even stopping him, you know, Jiang Yiqing's status in the city is not lower than anyone, almost everyone knows him, and no matter how clumsy the city guards are, it is impossible to stop him.
After entering the city gate, the six of them first formed two teams, Jiang Yiqing and Qianqiu said to Xiao Yu, "Xiao Yu, you should introduce the rules to Brother Wenren first, and your sister-in-law and I will go back first, and go home early after finishing it, the family is worried about you." With that, the two walked away.
Seeing that the brother and sister-in-law were far away, Xiao Yu also turned to Hong Mingtian and the others and asked, "Do you want to know the rules now?"
The so-called rules refer to the rules about the battle of sunset, Zheng Jia and the three of them mentioned the battle of sunset to Jiang Yiqing and others on the way, in order to let Hong Mingtian and Fei Xuan know better, they asked Jiang Yiqing for advice again.
"Of course, you say, and we'll listen. Fei Xuan said eagerly.
"It's okay, don't forget what you said earlier, the battle of sunset is held on the first day of the first month, for seven days, in the twenty-fourth, twenty-fifth, twenty-sixth three days of the lunar month, you need to pay the graded registration fee, a heavy mountain needs to pay 1,000 taels of silver, two thousand taels of the second mountain, 5,000 taels of the triple mountain, 10,000 taels of the fourth mountain, the registration condition is under the age of 30, below the fifth mountain, do you have enough money? If you are not enough, you can ask us for help, after all, a friend. ”
"Naturally, we have enough money, are there any other rules?" Zheng Jia said.
Xiao Yu showed a sweet smile, and continued, "There are only one hundred and sixty places to sign up, and after the registration time is over, the extra players will be eliminated in the form of duels in the four days from the twenty-seventh to the thirtieth day of the lunar month, and the battle of sunset will be carried out every day, and half of the number of people will be eliminated, and the pace of the battle of sunset is very fast, and few people can recover their strength in less than a day after the battle." ”
"Isn't it easy to solve it with the elixir?" Fei Xuan asked without knowing why.
"There is also a rule in the Battle of Sunset, that is, it is forbidden to take pills, but death can occur, the nature is a bit similar to life and death, before that, you need to sign a life and death agreement, whether you live or die is all up to your opponent, this is also a way for Sunset City to absorb gold, only when the audience sees the blood will cheer, will they become repeat customers, and continue to pay. Have you figured it out?"
Hong Mingtian and the three of them glanced at each other, and couldn't help laughing, "The purpose of our coming here is to exercise, if we can't even touch death, if we want to really become stronger, it will probably be very difficult." ”
"You decide for yourself, if there is anything you don't understand, just come to the Jiang family to find me, I'll go first!" greeted Hong Mingtian, and after seeing him nod, he whipped and drove away.
Seeing Xiao Yu's departure, Hong Mingtian sighed softly, as if he was a little lost, Zheng Jia seemed to see something on the side, and showed a cheap smile, "Boy, there is a story? What, it's interesting to that girl? Otherwise, you call me brother, I will configure aphrodisiacs for you, and when the time comes, push it to her ......"
"Okay, okay, you're cheap, if you want to die, just match, let's find a place to stay first. Giving Zheng Jia a roll of his eyes, Hong Mingtian angrily pulled the horse to the nearest inn to him, the inn was called Dongtu Inn, listen to the name...... It's still quite down-to-earth, but the three of them are not so picky.
Let the shopkeeper take care of the three horses to the stable, and the three of them ordered a few plates of big fish and meat, these four days are spent on dry food, how long has not touched the meat, this meal is really a feast, but not for long, only to hear the noise outside louder and louder, the three of them only cast a few glances, I thought that the residents were unhappy somewhere, and they didn't go to their hearts.
"Fuck, it's that stinky boy again! If I catch him today, he must not be able to eat and walk around!" The large group of people behind him could tell that they were all farmers, both in terms of their outfits and the tools they were holding. And in front of them was a thin man, who was wearing only a piece of clothing that could almost be called a rag, and a token engraved with the word "car" on his waist, and nothing else that could be seen.
The emaciated man carried a bunch of Chinese medicines in his arms, like deer antler velvet, wolfberry, sheep scorpion, bullwhip, ginseng, ligustrum, angelica, ejiao, Polygonum multiflori, Poria cocos atractylodes and dendrobium. (Seems to have a strange stuff mixed in.) )
However, this thin man had already run past the Dongtu Inn, but he didn't expect him to turn back, run in the direction of the stable, jump on the horse, and kick the horse's buttocks with a "driving", and the horse jumped out of the stable immediately after eating pain, and the crowd behind him could be said to be out of reach.
And when the shopkeeper saw it, he was about to step forward to stop him, but he was already galloping away on his horse, but Xiao Er was so angry that he shouted on the ground: "Eh!
What is the use of just calling, and the owner of the horse must not be notified, Xiao Er immediately came to Zheng Jia and the three of them, and his face was hurried as if there was a fire in the house: "Third master, your horse is gone......
