Chapter 38 Murder in the middle of the night in the market town

The liquor store is full of people and is very lively. As soon as He Leng walked in, the smell of wine, sweat, and perfume mixed with the woman's body hit him head-on, making He Leng, who had just walked in, very uncomfortable.

Looking at the drinkers inside, and the noisy noise everywhere, He Leng felt a little at a loss for a while.

A young waitress noticed He Leng standing at the door, her eyes first showed a little surprise, and then she quickly walked over with a professional smile on her face, first said hello, and then said: "Since the opening of this wine shop, it is the first time that such young customers have visited this restaurant, I wonder if this little guest, what can I serve?"

He Leng hurriedly calmed down, pretended to be an old man, and said refreshingly: "Of course you come to the wine shop to drink...... Do you have any wine for someone like me? It's not very strong. ”

The waitress should understand, probably a child from a rich family, who has never drunk alcohol when she is young and wants to come here to see the world, maybe she is betting with a little friend. Seeing a steel sword almost as tall as him in her arms, the waitress first covered her mouth and smiled, and then politely guided him to the bartending bar.

There was a circle of high stools around the bar, He Leng leaned his sword on the bar, sat on the bar, the bar was just level with his shoulders, He Leng learned from the surrounding drinkers to stretch out their hands and rest on the bar, and then waited for the waiter to serve the wine.

The scattered drinkers sitting around the bar suddenly noticed this rather unusual little drinker, and they all looked at He Leng curiously, among which a couple of men and women who seemed to be lovers sat next to each other, and the two smiled at him kindly.

At this time, the cold wine came!

"This is a glass of 'Qingju Blue Spring', it belongs to a kind of fruit wine, the taste is extremely elegant, it is specially prepared for you, I hope you can like it!" The waitress who delivered the wine was still the waitress, with a sweet smile on her face, and specially explained to He Leng.

"Thank you!"

He Leng looked at the glass of 'Qingju Blue Spring' in front of him, the wine was light green, which couldn't help but remind him of the half basin of anti-inflammatory herbal water he had soaked before going out, and his brows furrowed slightly.

"What? don't like it? If you're not satisfied, you can change it to something else. The waitress hadn't left yet, and noticed the expression on He Leng's little face.

"It's fine, it's just that something else suddenly comes to mind. ”

There are two ice cubes at the bottom of the glass, and there is a fresh white chrysanthemum floating on the surface of the wine, and the chrysanthemum is dotted with two red and tender cherries, red, white, and green......

The few people who were still looking at him over there raised their glasses lightly, this was what He Leng learned from books, and several of them also raised their glasses to save face!

Take a gentle sip, and suddenly the mouth is filled with the coolness of the mountain spring, then a burst of fruity sweetness follows, then the fragrance of daisies ripples on the tip of the tongue, and finally there is a faint hint of wine lingering on the lips, which is very different from the kind of strong liquor that grandpa drank that day.

He Leng's body is not yet fully developed, and it is easier to accept this kind of elegant fruit wine, so he took a sip gently, and a cherry slid into He Leng's mouth with the wine, He Leng chewed slowly, turned his head and looked around curiously about the interior layout of the wine shop.

After a while, the conversation of a table of drinkers quickly attracted He Leng's attention, and he raised his head and drank the remaining small half glass of wine: "One more glass!" and then slanted his ears and listened carefully to the conversation over there.

"Alas, the situation in the Flaming Mountains is getting more and more unpredictable......"

"Yes, it's been almost half a year since the fire broke out there a few months ago, and I don't know how many monks have been buried there these days......

"What is this? Now the burial is only the monks who are relatively close to this area, I heard that a large number of high-ranking monks are coming here from far away to explore the secrets of the Flaming Mountain......

"I really didn't expect it! That Flame Mountain can be regarded as our neighbor, we have lived tens of thousands of miles away from the Flame Mountain for most of our lives, and we have not even noticed that there is such a terrifying place next to us......"

"Today's Flaming Mountain can no longer be called Flaming Mountain, the lava that erupted there has expanded to a radius of thousands of miles, and it has truly become a magma world......

"I heard that the top of the lava sea has been completely shrouded in black fog, and it is impossible to see the true face of the sea from a distance, and it is precisely because of this that the monks outside who don't know the root of the sea dared to break in and were swallowed by the lava sea......"

"By the way, Lao Wu, didn't you become a guide a few days ago and took a group of monks to the Flame Mountain?

Lao Wu, who was named, suddenly had a look of fear for the rest of his life on his face, and shook his head again and again: "I don't know...... I do not know...... Don't push me anymore......"

He still seemed to have lingering thoughts about what had happened at that time, and he had not recovered until now, when he was brought up again by others, and he sat there repeating the phrase, babbling to himself......

Everyone smiled awkwardly, and then stopped forcing him, and each of them shut up and bypassed this paragraph, and then talked about all kinds of adventures and interesting things.

......

"It's true that the Flame Mountain is dangerous, but it's not as terrifying as he said, right?" He Leng was confused when he heard this, and thought to himself in confusion.

After sitting for a while, He Leng drank the last sip of the third cup of "Qingju Blue Spring", dropped a low-grade spirit stone to settle the wine tent, and walked out of the wine shop to rush back to the pharmacy.

After turning a few streets, I came to the mouth of an alley, and there was a vegetable market at the mouth of the alley, and from that vegetable market I crossed two intersections to Yu Feng's pharmacy!

At this moment, in the second half of the night, the stars in the sky became brighter and brighter, and the starlight was about to fall like snow, and He Leng stepped on his shadow with one foot low and one foot high......

The "Qingju Blue Spring" is delicious, the entrance is smooth and sweet, but He Leng is young after all, plus this is the second time he has drunk in his life, and his sensitivity to alcohol has not yet been fully adapted.

"Bang"!

He Leng walked very quickly, and suddenly as if he had hit a piece of iron wrapped in a sponge, he "pedaled" and took several steps backwards......

"You kid, why don't you have long eyes when you walk!"

He Leng raised his head, a strong man with a full face and beard stood in the middle of the alley, and as the words came out, a strong smell of wine came to his face, which made He Leng almost nauseous.

It turned out that he was also a fellow practitioner who was looking for pleasure in a wine shop at night, He Leng smiled stupidly, and such a thought suddenly popped up in his mind, and then quickly apologized repeatedly: "Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I drank too much, I want to hurry back to sleep!"

After saying that, get out of the way a few steps to the side, and you have to bypass the big man.

"Don't worry! Such a beautiful night, with a cool breeze, is a robbery...... Phew...... It's a good time to chat, let's have a good chat...... Hiccup......"

The man seemed to be talking drunk, but it instantly made He Leng's heart nervous, the incident just happened in the afternoon, and someone blocked the road at this time to find fault, which couldn't help He Leng's eyes to be careful and vigilant, and at the same time, most of the alcohol disappeared, and his mind immediately became sober.

"What are you talking about?"

He Leng still pretended to be ignorant and began to slowly retreat.

"Boy, you stepped on my foot. ”

He Lengdian turned his head, and at some point he was followed by a man with a pale face who had been following him here, and he didn't even notice it at all, if he took another step back in his retreat at this moment, he was indeed about to step on the man's feet.

In an instant, cold sweat broke out from He Leng's back.

The two big men one after the other, forced He Leng to a corner against the wall, and the man with a pale face stared at He Leng with a cold look in his eyes, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, put down the steel sword and the spirit stone in your arms, I promise not to kill you." ”

He Leng leaned against the wall and was silent, secretly guarding and at the same time sneering in his heart, you don't kill me, after all my equipment is lifted, you just need to control me, and then the other person has not guaranteed anything...... This kind of trick was used by those bards who wrote books long ago!

"Don't blame us, boy, blame yourself for daring to walk in such a secluded night with a huge fortune at such a young age!"

The two of them gradually approached up, one left and one right each grabbed one of He Leng's arms, snatched the stainless steel sword in He Leng's hand with his beard, glanced at the starlight, and praised it in his mouth: "Good sword! ”

At the same time, the pale-faced man put his hand into He Leng's arms and groped for a while, and after a while, a slight joy appeared on his face, obviously he had also touched the spirit stone bag he wanted.

At the moment when the two of them were relaxed after they each had gains, He Leng, who had been obediently letting the two of them do something, made his own counterattack......

Only to see the moment when the miserable white man just pulled the hand holding the spirit stone bag out of He Leng's arms, He Leng suddenly raised his right foot, and quickly kicked at the crotch of the pale-faced man, just when the other party bowed down like a shrimp and stretched out his hand to cover the crotch, He Leng's left leg was a little behind the wall behind him, his body was in the air, and when he swept above the head of the beard, the retracted right leg curled up and kicked, and a cold dagger slipped out from between the trouser legs!

The beard let out a low muffled snort, and reflexively reached out to cover the back of his neck, and at the same time, the hand holding the sword was sheathed, and subconsciously slashed towards He Leng.

He Leng took the dagger from his mouth with his left hand, swiped his sword wrist with his beard, snatched back the steel sword with his right hand, and quickly retreated backwards after landing......

At this moment, the pale-faced man reacted, pulled out the long knife hanging on his waist with a "puff", and slashed at He Leng who was retreating with his backhand.

He Leng raised his sword to meet him, the swords suddenly clashed, and a spark suddenly extinguished in the dim alley in the night, He Leng staggered backwards with a numb hand.

After a round, the two sides have a general understanding of each other's strength, among which the beard cultivation is the lowest, but the cultivation of the fourth order of qi refining, the cultivation of the man with a pale face is a little higher than He Leng, and when he reaches the peak of the fifth order of qi refining, he may break through to the threshold of the sixth order of qi refining at any time.

The two big men were in shock at the moment, they didn't expect that a child who was only half the size of a ding, and his strength was no worse than the two of them. Especially the beard, at this moment he has torn off his sleeves and wrapped them around his neck to temporarily treat the wound, and it can still be seen that the sleeve wrapped around the wound is slowly stained red with blood, his eyes are red staring at He Leng, "Huh" pulled out his blade from his waist, it was a two-foot long flat ruler.

Neither side spoke again, at this time, the two big men no longer regarded He Leng as a half-grown child, they treated him as if they were a peerless beast, and after a few seconds, the bearded man couldn't help but take the lead in the first move, raised a few steps through the gap in the middle, and smashed his head at He Leng's head......

He Leng leaned to the left, and out of the corner of his eye, he still saw that the other party's wrist holding a ruler was swept by the flesh and blood in the wound that he had crossed!

The pale-faced man then bullied him, and the big knife stabbed obliquely, forcing He Lengkankan's figure back again.

He Leng raised his sword to separate the big sword, and the dagger met the flat ruler that was smashed down in the air, and his whole body was smashed by the huge force and squatted down......

He Leng's body was tense, the palm wound on his back suddenly burst at this moment, and the blood slowly flowed out along his teeth, saying that it was too late and that was fast, He Leng's hundred refining steel sword that separated the big sword finally made a gap at this time, and while retracting the sword momentum, he slashed it upwards with a slash......

"Whew"!

A sword is in the middle of the beard and ribs, the strength of the flat ruler pressed down suddenly loosened, and the big knife that was separated at this moment suddenly swept again, He Leng quickly lay down and rolled on the ground, and at the same time the left and right hands sword dagger out, showing a cross state and cutting and twisting, the legs of the beard suddenly separated from his body in the flesh and blood, and the upper body without support instantly fell down, just on the blade of the broadsword that swept over, and in an instant, the entire upper body of the beard was immediately split in half by a knife!

The pale-faced man froze when he saw this, and he thought about ten thousand endings, but he never expected that it would be a person who licked blood on the head of the knife to live a life......

A few zhang away, a carp stood up, He Leng met the big knife again, only to see that he quickly put the dagger back into his arms, and his free left hand pinched a sword trick, and the stainless steel sword in his right hand suddenly trembled sharply, and in an instant, an electric current quickly swam away from the sword, and in the blink of an eye, the tip of the sword continued to stretch into the air......

The next moment, a shocked look appeared on the pale man's face, making his already dead man's face flush with a trace of purple!

"Sword ...... Sword Mang!"

The knife in the hand of the pale-faced man suddenly fell half a foot away from He Leng's neck. In the alley, He Leng's scattered hair with the night breeze was shaved off by it, and it flew in the air with the night wind, gently drifting into the distance!

These few rabbits are up and down, but the battle has ended in just a few breathing fields, and a few rounds can be described as dangerous, and the slightest carelessness on either side is the end of fate, and now it seems that the balance of fate is still in favor of He Leng, a child who is not as weak as a crown!

He Leng still maintained the gesture of holding the sword motionlessly, the Hundred Refining Steel Sword tilted upwards slightly, the tip of the sword was an inch away from the heart of the pale-faced man, and from the front end of the sword tip, a sword light several inches long was silently devouring a qiqi obstacle in front of it......

"I forgot to tell you, in fact, I will make a stunt, this stunt is called Sword Fighting, and I have just fully integrated it......"

Bang, the pale-faced man fell, and he didn't hear He Leng's last few words, but He Leng still chattered and muttered softly, until there was a sharp pain from the palm wound that burst out of his back, and he suddenly woke up as if he was in another world.

The cold sweat had soaked his small body up and down, He Leng gritted his teeth and endured the pain, walked to the side of the half corpse of the bearded man, and took out his spirit stone bag from inside, which had been dyed red with blood, and then quickly walked out of the alley without looking back......
