Chapter 224: A Big Event
Prayer Hell City, late at night, the sky is full of dark clouds, slowly enveloping the entire city, and the wind gradually blows in the calm night, but it does not make people feel a trace of coolness, but it is more stuffy. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Gu Qiuyu stood in front of the window on the second floor of an inn, staring at the slender stone tower in the middle of the city in the distance, in the dark, faintly seeing the outline, this stone tower seemed to be a black snake into the clouds, and from time to time some flashes appeared in the tower, which made people feel even more weird.
The wind blew, and there was even a strange sound from afar, as if it was a mournful roar from the tower. And Gu Qiuyu just watched quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Gu Qiuyu and Lin Qiqi came to this inconspicuous inn in the afternoon, originally planning to have a good rest and go on the road tomorrow, but in the evening, Lin Qiqi suddenly said to Gu Qiuyu: "I feel that there is something strange in this city, and I will investigate it after nightfall." ”
Gu Qiuyu said: "What do you care about the rest, we just need to complete the task." ”
Lin Qiqi smiled: "Hehe, if my hunch is correct, a big event will happen in this city." ”
After speaking, regardless of Gu Qiuyu's objections, he left the inn alone and did not return until late at night.
Gu Qiuyu waited for Lin Qiqi while looking at the stone tower under the night, and after Lin Qiqi said that before, he himself felt that this Prayer Hell City was a little strange, I don't know if it was a psychological effect.
"If these things hadn't happened, what kind of life would I have lived now? Maybe I would have married and had children, and if there were four brothers and sisters, one person and two children, then the family would probably not be quiet. ”
Thinking of the Gu family, the corners of Gu Qiuyu's mouth showed a trace of bitterness.
More than ten years ago, he never thought that he would live the life he is living with such an identity.
My heart flipped upside down, countless memories poured over my heartache, and before I knew it, I had been leaning against the window for two hours.
At this time, the door of the guest room was opened, and when Gu Qiuyu reacted in his heart, Lin Qiqi was already sitting on the chair in the room, looking at him with a smile.
"Missing a lover?"
Lin Qiqi took a sip of cold tea, and laughed at Gu Qiuyu on his lips, but his chest kept rising and falling.
After such a long period of contact, Gu Qiuyu also knew a little bit about Lin Qiqi's character, and he didn't care about those jokes, and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Not really, but something big is going to happen in this city of prayer. ”
Lin Qiqi drank all the herbal tea, panting and looking at Gu Qiuyu, his eyes flashing with fine light.
Gu Qiuyu asked, "What's the big deal?"
Lin Qiqi shook it: "I don't know." But do you remember what happened at the gates of the city during the day?"
"At the gate of the city, isn't it just that a few soldiers were very serious when they searched it? There is already a big prison in the city, and it is reasonable to prevent some warriors from entering the city and robbing the prison. ”
Gu Qiuyu's eyes were a little puzzled, the only thing that impressed him during the day seemed to be the soldiers at the city gate.
Lin Qiqi said: "This is just a small part, what I am talking about is, the blood-stained knife Pu Jinglong, do you still have an impression?"
"Ah, I remember!"
After Lin Seventeen said this, Gu Qiuyu remembered that during the day, someone called this name, and it seemed that there was a conflict with the defenders, and he was more concerned about this matter at that time.
Lin Qiqi glanced at Gu Qiuyu and said, "I said that you were a person, I just saw it during the day, why did you forget it now?"
He always felt that Gu Qiuyu had been a bit abnormal these days, and he didn't react at the first time when he entered the house just now, which was very dangerous for a martial artist.
"Maybe it's close to home. ”
Gu Qiuyu smiled faintly and looked at Lin Qiqi calmly, waiting for his next step.
Lin Qiqi had already heard some of Gu Qiuyu's past, and at this time he also understood a little in his heart, and then said the original words: "That Pu Jinglong is not an ordinary role in the rivers and lakes, especially in Yanzhou, he is very famous, our Xingtian Temple once took over the task of assassinating him, but none of the disciples who went to the name came back. This person has no sect, not only is he superb in martial arts, but he also acts carefully, and rarely shows his head on the rivers and lakes. ”
Then, Lin Qiqi looked at Gu Qiuyu and saw that he didn't react, so he continued: "Today at the gate of that city, as soon as I heard his name, I felt that something must happen in this Prayer City, otherwise, this guy would definitely not appear here like this." So, I just went out on a trip, and I didn't notice anything strange, but there are indeed a lot of warriors hidden in this Hell City, and I don't know how they got in. ”
Gu Qiuyu knew that the so-called disciples who were not named referred to were disciples who did not have numbers like Wen San and Lin Qiqi, and they should be similar to Xu Donglai. Although some of these disciples were also powerful, they were not the main force of the Xingtian Temple. It seems that Pu Jinglong has not really provoked the Xingtian Temple yet.
He continued to ask, "Don't you have a stronghold in this Prison Prayer City?"
"No, the main forces of the Xingtian Temple are still in the Western Wilderness Prefecture and the Northern Cold Prefecture, although there are some personnel in the Eastern Prefecture, they are also in some big cities. The city of Prayer has only been built for a short time, and the power of this place is too complicated. That's why Menzhong doesn't pay much attention to this side. ”
"So what are we going to do? here, or continue south?"
Hearing Gu Qiuyu ask this question, Lin Qishuang flashed a fine light, and said excitedly: "There is no hurry to go south, let's observe here for a few days now, see what big things are going to happen, maybe we can see some special kung fu!"
Gu Qiuyu sighed, nodded, and didn't say anything. Since Lin Qiqi said that he was not in a hurry, he could also take a rest. In addition, if you want to find time to recover your internal qi, you might as well stay in this Prayer City for the first time.
At this time, the sky outside the city of Prayer was completely obscured by dark clouds, as if pressing on the top of people's heads, and it was pitch black, and even the stone towers in the city could not be seen.
"It's going to rain. ”
Lin Qiqi came to the window, looked at everything outside, and slowly closed the window.
......
In a mountain ten miles away from the city of Prayer, a huge tent quietly appeared, and there was no bonfire burning inside or outside the tent, but the horses tied to it proved that there were people inside.
Now the clouds are closed, the sky is dark, and the tent is in the middle of the mountains and forests, so it is difficult to be spotted without entering.
The four figures were sitting in the tent, and although it was dark inside, the eyes of the four were unusually bright, like beasts in the dark.
"I was still run away by that road, and the things in the Prison City will soon reach Qing Xuan's ears!"
One of the four was the first to speak, his loud voice mixed with anger.
"Well, if it weren't for the sudden appearance of that Tianjiao warrior, which would have hurt me and done a good thing, things wouldn't have become as serious as they are now. Moreover, that matter has already spread through some channels, and many martial artists have already entered the Prison Prayer City. ”
This time it was also a man who spoke, but his voice was calmer than the previous one.
"Qing Xuan and Tianjiao Warriors are nothing, I'm afraid that after a long time, the people of Thunder Fire Hall will get the news and rush over, after all, this matter has a close relationship with their Thunder Fire Hall. Moreover, now all the gates of the Prayer Hell City are guarded by Tianjiao warriors, and it is very difficult to enter the city. ”
Compared to the two men who had just spoken, this time it was a female voice.
The man with a loud voice said: "Then what should I do? Are you just waiting here? I said during the day, when the kid who is on the road is far away, let the people from Shuanglongmen do it, you just don't listen, this is good, Qing Xuan knows not to say, whether you can enter the city is still a problem." ”
"What do you mean by that? Those Lutongs carry charms with them, and they are rarely revealed in front of people, if they don't attack outside the city, when he brings a charm, you can catch up with him?! Moreover, there is another person who pretends to be our identity and rescues that Lutong, how can we act rashly before the matter is clarified? What a fool!"
The woman's voice immediately rang out, and her words were full of anger.
"You!
"It's stupid! Don't say it once, even ten times I'll say, why, I still can't do it here?"
Seeing that the two were about to really clash, the man who had not spoken in the tent suddenly spoke: "King Tianhuo Ming, Our Lady of Water Lotus, everyone in the world is suffering, so don't continue to quarrel with the two of you." ”
The man's voice was very flat, but the majesty in his words was not diminished in the slightest, and when they saw this, they also closed their mouths and sat back.
The remaining person asked at this time, "Shen Xiantai, what should we do about this matter?" And outside the gate of the Hell City today, there is a person pretending to be us, and he will also use the art of resisting fire. ”
"The Heavenly Fire Ming King and the Water Lotus Holy Mother are above, we just let the four people from the local Shuanglongmen rob the road, these four people should not be able to speak now, we don't need to be too nervous. The way to this matter should be arranged by King Ming, let's just wait here! As for that person, you should all know him, but he is just a small role, and he is not enough to worry about. ”
"It turned out to be him!"
The other three suddenly realized, and then fell silent, since Shen Xiantai said so, there was no need for them to continue arguing.
......
Lu Shixiao, who came out of the battlefield, had the blessing of the red charm, and Ken quickly ran five miles away, but the red charm seemed to have lost its effect, and his speed weakened.
Helpless, he had no choice but to take out the special charm of Lu Tong from his coat pocket, stick it on his legs, and continue to run wildly.
seems to be flustered, but not blind, Lu Tong's natural ability to know the way will take him to the road he should go in a short time.
Lu Shixiao also understood in his heart that he must have taken a very important piece of news, now it seems that he wants money or death, a road leads to travel south and north all his life, and he does a business with no capital, it is normal to be in distress, but if he encounters so many things in one day, I am afraid it will not be much.
However, as he walked, Lu Shixiao's tears were about to fall, he was really young, and young people always had an inexplicable idea.
Now this young man's idea is much simpler, that is, after collecting people's money, he will do this thing, and he must complete the most expensive job in his life.
