Chapter Forty-Six: The Trouble That Can't Be Shaken Off
After the "Ghost Teeth" mercenary group all went out, Lu Zhe looked around and found that the eyes of the people around him seemed to have changed when they looked at Ye Lao, and there seemed to be a hint of admiration in their puzzled eyes?
"Eat" Ye Lao's voice sounded in Lu Zhe's ears.
After speaking, as soon as he waved his hand, the shopkeeper just now ran over, only to hear Ye Lao ask: Who is this "ghost tooth" mercenary group?
When the shopkeeper heard this, he looked at Ye Lao, and there was a strange look in his eyes, presumably it was the incident just now that gave him a big blow, so he heard the shopkeeper say in a low voice: Do you really don't know or fake this master?
Ye Lao said angrily: I don't know what is true or not, I don't know if you are your master.
Hearing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly smiled and said: Don't be angry, this master, I said, I said.
Then, the shopkeeper looked around, and then whispered: You don't know this master, our town has always been the only way to enter the mountains, and every day there are mercenaries who collect medicine or hunt come here, and after a long time, some mercenary groups began to be stationed here, and then after a long time, they .......
Without speaking, the shopkeeper looked around again, not knowing what he was afraid of, but only listened to him: After a long time, there are three relatively large mercenary groups that have gained a foothold here, forming a three-legged world, one of which is the "ghost tooth" mercenary group just now, this, you already know this master.
Ye Lao nodded and asked, "Then, what about the remaining two mercenary groups?"
The shopkeeper hesitated for a while, did not speak, and seemed to have something unspeakable.
Ye Lao looked at him, stretched out his hand and slapped it on the table, and as soon as his hand was raised, a silver coin appeared on the table.
The shopkeeper's eyes were obviously straight, Ye Lao put the silver coin in his hand, and the shopkeeper put the silver coin in his hand, and the shopkeeper took the silver coin in his arms, looked around, and said in a low voice: The rest are the "Blood Wolf" mercenary group and the "Viper" mercenary group.
"What about the 'Falcon' mercenary group?" Lu Zhe asked suspiciously after listening to the shopkeeper's explanation.
The shopkeeper was shocked, as if he didn't expect Lu Zhe to ask this, and after being stunned for a while, he whispered: This master, do you know, this "Falcon" mercenary group is also one of the three major mercenary groups, but in recent months, I heard that it seems to have been plotted by unknown people, their leader Hong Qingcang does not know the whereabouts, his son Hong Lei and daughter Hong Xiuer also do not know the whereabouts, the "ghost fang" mercenary group took the opportunity to seize the status of the "Falcon" mercenary group and become one of the new three mercenary groups.
After a pause, the shopkeeper continued: This situation is commonplace in our Qinglin Town, and everyone is not surprised.
Ye Lao waved his hand after hearing this, dismissed the shopkeeper, looked at Lu Zhe, and said: Hear it, this is the mainland, this is the world. If you want to walk in the world, strength is a qiē.
Lu Zhe nodded, didn't say anything, and lowered his head to eat.
After eating, Ye Lao greeted the shopkeeper, asked for two upper rooms, and went up to rest with Lu Zhe.
..................
Late at night, most of the people at Qingxi Pier had gone to bed peacefully, and as they walked down the street, they would occasionally hear the gasps of men and the moans of women coming from the next room. In a compound on the left side of Qingxi Town, most of the rooms are already black-lit, most of them have gone to bed, and a few rooms are slightly lit, but they are also very weak, and it is estimated that they are temporarily lit by people who get up at night.
In the back mountain of the compound, a woman wearing a lilac robe stands here, the night breeze is blowing, there is a faint coolness blowing on the human body, the bright moon hangs high, the woman looks up at a bright moon hanging in the sky, her eyes are like water, reflecting the silver-white moonlight, the moonlight pours down, shining on this cliff, dyeing it into a silver-white color, making people feel like they are on the moon.
"Squeak, squeak" A monkey's cry made the woman turn her head slightly, revealing the beauty of the country and the city, this is Xue Ling'er, but at this moment, there seems to be a faint look of concern on Xue Ling'er's beautiful face.
A white shadow leaped out of the nearby woods with lightning lightning, jumped on the ground a few times, and then jumped into the arms of the beautiful woman. It's the monkey Xiaobai
Xue Ling'er didn't care about the dust on Monkey Xiaobai's body, hugged him to her chest, and gently stroked his silky hair, while Monkey Xiaobai was quietly stroked by her.
"You say, how is he now?" Xue Ling'er stroked the monkey Xiaobai's head and said to herself lightly, with a hint of concern in her tone.
"Squeak, squeak" Monkey Xiaobai screamed twice, as if in reply to Xue Ling'er's words.
Xue Ling'er smiled faintly, looked up at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, her voice was mixed with a hint of sadness and concern, and said lightly: I don't know, at this moment, is he also appreciating this bright moon?
..................
Lu Zhe sat cross-legged on the roof, quietly looking at the bright moon hanging in the sky, his handsome face mixed with a faint sad look, quietly staring at the bright moon in the sky.
After a long time, Lu Zhe retracted his gaze, rubbed his eyes, and cultivated cross-legged.
The night gradually passed away in Lu Zhe's cross-legged cultivation and Xue Ling'er's concern, and a round of morning sun shot out from the east, and the roosters of each family were endless, accompanied by the sound of opening the door and footsteps, a new day was coming.
"Whew" Lu Zhe slowly exhaled and stood up.
Feeling the bright sunshine, Lu Zhe stood up, stretched, moved his muscles a few times, and went down from the roof.
Coming to the lobby of the house, Lu Zhe found that Ye Lao was already waiting for him there, Lu Zhe walked quickly to Ye Lao's side, Ye Lao opened his eyes and looked at him, and said lightly: I have something to deal with, I will leave for about two or three days, in the few days I have left, you have to be careful, don't make trouble for me.
When Lu Zhe heard this, he nodded, and said, "Don't worry, Master, I have my own measure."
Ye Lao looked at Lu Zhe, who was full of confidence, sighed, then stood up and walked out the door.
Lu Zhe finished breakfast in the inn hall and felt fine, so he went straight out of the inn and came to the street of Qinglin Town.
The streets of Qinglin Town are the same as the streets of ordinary towns, they are very lively, buying things, bargaining, selling special products, selling things, threatening, smashing, and starting a scuffle if they don't agree with each other, etc., are dazzling and dazzling.
Lu Zhe walked around the street with great interest, and from time to time he would stop near the stalls on the street for a while to look at the goods, but he didn't buy them, and the stall owners looked at Lu Zhe with the same eyes as people who were in the way.
Lu Zhe wandered around the street, and suddenly saw that there was a place not far in front of him surrounded by some people, Lu Zhe was afraid of being miserably caught in the pond fish and did not watch, after all, there is everything in this place, along the way, there are some scammers who sell things to Lu Zhe, but they are all ignored by Lu Zhe, not that Lu Zhe is determined, but that Lu Zhe has no money.
But after all, curiosity killed the cat, Lu Zhe's determination still did not defeat curiosity, driven by curiosity, Lu Zhe still walked towards the place where the group gathered, anyway, if something happened, he could fly away with the black wings, afraid of him.
Lu Zhe walked into the crowd, squeezed a few times, squeezed past the big men who emitted the smell of blood, Lu Zhe finally came to the middle of the crowd and saw clearly what was going on in the crowd, but when Lu Zhe saw what was going on inside, Lu Zhe regretted that he came.
The crowd is a person covered in blood, this situation has long been reported to the official in ordinary towns, but it is commonplace in this lawless Qinglin Town, it is no wonder, after all, this is a gathering place for mercenaries, and it is common to go into the mountains to hunt and be attacked by beast kings, and it is common to break arms and legs.
If it were an ordinary person, Lu Zhe would have ignored it a long time ago, but the person who was surrounded by the crowd happened to be known to Lu Zhe, who was the elder brother of the two brothers and sisters rescued by Ye Lao yesterday, Hong Lei.
Lu Zhe looked at Hong Lei and found that Hong Lei was covered in blood, the knife on his body was clearly visible, the blood had coagulated, and it seemed that he had been injured early, but looking at the ups and downs in his chest, he must still be angry.
Lu Zhe looked at Hong Lei, turned his head and walked out of the crowd, now that Ye Lao was not here, he didn't want to cause any trouble.
However, it backfired, Lu Zhe wanted to turn around and flash people, but Hong Lei, who had been closing his eyes, opened his eyes, and recognized Lu Zhe the same, and at that moment, regardless of his injured body, crawled to Lu Zhe's side, hugged Lu Zhe's feet and shouted: Benefactor help, help.
Lu Zhe wanted to turn around and run, but why was it so difficult to squeeze the group of big men behind him, he didn't squeeze out for a long time, and now he felt his feet sinking, and he heard Hong Lei's voice again, his eyes were helpless, his eyebrows were raised, he turned his head, squatted down, looked at Hong Lei and said: Why are you ghosted?
After speaking, Lu Zhe struggled to pull out his legs.
Hong Lei saw Lu Zhe, as if he had seen his father, he hugged Lu Zhe's retreat and didn't let go, no matter how hard Lu Zhe tried, he just didn't let go, like a splash.
Lu Zhe's helpless look appeared on his face, and he squatted down and said, "Big brother, I beg you, can you let it go?"
When Hong Lei heard this, he opened his eyes and said, "Benefactor, I beg you to save my sister."
Lu Zhe said expressionlessly: I have already saved it.
After speaking, he gave Hong Lei a kick, kicked him away, and turned to leave.
Just when Lu Zhe turned around and didn't go far, he heard Hong Lei shouting from behind: If you don't save my sister, my sister will be ruined by them, benefactor, as long as you save my sister, I will promise you everything.
When Lu Zhe heard this, he stopped, Hong Lei saw that there was a play, his eyes lit up, but he found that Lu Zhe was looking ahead with both eyes, and at that moment, he also looked in front of Lu Zhe, and then his body shook greatly, because Huo Wolf, the young leader of the "Ghost Tooth" mercenary group, was riding a horse, and he was carrying a girl immediately, who was Hong Xiu'er.
Lu Zhe looked at the front and said helplessly: It seems that I can't hide if I want to.
