"Brother Su Ping, be careful on the road, I'm waiting for you here. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" Hu Ling'er finally said.

Su Ping nodded, squatted down, put the spirit fox on the ground, explained a few more words, and resolutely walked out of the Dayi store.

As soon as this trip is gone, I don't know when it will be the return trip.

Xicheng Jue squinted, looked at the back of Su Ping leaving, and nodded slightly.

Hu Ling'er hid behind the door, only showing her head to look at Su Ping outside, until the figure disappeared into the distance, then she withdrew her eyes, she drooped her head listlessly and walked into the house.

At this time, the seemingly calm rivers and lakes are actually surging undercurrents.

The sword god Liu half-life reappeared in the rivers and lakes, although there is still no exact whereabouts and movements of him, but everyone knows that this half-life sword god is definitely not the master of peace.

And the news about Liu Bansheng getting the Divine Sword Devouring Heaven also spread, in addition to the people who have personal grudges with Liu Bansheng to find them, more good players who covet the Divine Sword frequently appear in all corners and inquire about Liu Bansheng's whereabouts.

Above the temple, there is no peace.

It has been reported that some people in Yongzhou, in the south of the country, have risen up, and the barbarians in the north of the country are also ready to move.

In addition, every few days, a desolate border town is slaughtered overnight, whether it is men and women, old and weak, women and children, they are all killed, and what is even more frightening is that when people find it the next day, the corpses in the field have all turned into white bones.

...

At this time, Su Ping had already embarked on the road to the Northland, the journey was far away, and at his current speed, it would take at least three months to reach the northern border.

After passing through several towns, it was nearly evening, and Su Ping dismounted and stayed overnight.

There is a half-person high granite in front of the town, which is engraved with three big characters of Jisui Town, which is quite simple, it can be seen that this place is not rich, from a distance, the town covers a small area, at most more than 100 households.

While looking, Su Ping led the horse and walked onto the street.

On both sides of the road, there were two children playing, and when they saw Su Ping, who had an unfamiliar face, they stopped their movements and looked at him.

Su Ping smiled slightly, the child's face was dull, he didn't respond, and ran quickly towards the city.

Su Ping frowned, a little strange, and looked at the back of the child running away, only then did he realize that this town was too deserted, although there were not many portals, it should not be so cold.

Most of the shops were closed, and there were no passers-by, and at this time, there were only Su Ping and his horse on the road.

For no apparent reason, a burst of cold air spread from the soles of his feet to his whole body.

He looked up at the sky, it was already evening, and there were no other villages nearby, so he stubbornly walked inside.

At this time, he saw a sign of an inn not far away, so he led the horse and walked over.

This inn is called Fulai Inn, the door is open, there are a few wooden tables inside, Su Ping stood at the door and looked at a few times, and did not find anyone.

He opened his mouth and shouted, "Anyone?"

After a while, a young man who looked like a small guy came from the backyard.

Seeing this little guy, Su Ping couldn't help but take a few more looks, this person's expression was flat, his eyelids drooped, his brows were slightly wrinkled, he was not as enthusiastic and skilled as the usual little guy, and the miscellaneous clothes he was wearing didn't fit, he was a little smaller.

The little servant stretched out his hand, took the reins from Su Ping's hand, and said, "You sit in the house, and I will lead the horse to the stable." ”

Su Ping's eyes were thin, and he could see at a glance the little guy's outstretched hand, the tiger's mouth was calloused, the knuckles were wide, and coupled with the qi that was revealed from time to time on his body, Su Ping judged that this little guy was a master.

An ordinary inn guy turned out to be a master, needless to say, he didn't break it, when he went out, people don't offend me, I don't offend.

Su Ping pretended not to know anything, walked into the room by himself, and sat down by the seat at the door.

At this time, there was a commotion outside the door, and listening to the sound, there were quite a few people.

Su Ping was a little curious, turned his head to look, and saw a team of about ten people, leading the horse to the inn, thinking that it was also a stay.

The people who came were wearing soft armor and long swords at their waists, and although they were talking and laughing, Su Ping keenly noticed that the atmosphere in the crowd was different.

The person who walked in the front had a grim face and did not smile, although the people behind laughed, they all controlled their voices, and their standing positions seemed to be random, but they never crossed the person in front of them by half a step, and the steps under everyone's feet were extremely consistent.

In this case, there is only one explanation, that this group of people is from the army.

Looking at their origins and accents, I think they are the army of the imperial court.

Su Ping was a little puzzled, why would the imperial court send such a team to the Northland.

While thinking about it, the people came to the front of the inn, and one of them shouted: "Shopkeeper!

Before he could finish speaking, he saw the little servant trotting up, taking the reins from the hands of the people, and driving the horses.

The group walked into the inn and sat around the largest round table in the hall.

When Su Ping looked at the past again, he happened to look at the young man who was the leader.

The young man squinted slightly, and Su Ping hurriedly moved his gaze to look at the cup in his hand.

The shopkeeper walked out of the backyard again, carrying a long-necked teapot in his hand, and poured water for everyone.

The journey was tiring, everyone was dry, and when they were about to drink the water glass, the young man led by him suddenly said, "Wait a minute." ”

The rest of them stopped their movements and looked at the young man.

Seeing this, Su Ping was even more sure that this group of people was the army of the imperial court, and that young man was probably not in a low position.

The young man picked up the cup in his hand, put it under his nose and sniffed it lightly, handed it to his lips again, took a sip, and nodded for a long time.

The rest of the people then picked up their cups and drank them.

The shopkeeper next to him saw this scene in his eyes and was expressionless.

"Shopkeeper, why is this town so deserted? I haven't seen a single figure for a long time. Someone asked out loud.

"Oh, it's not because of the recent news that there are evil cultivators slaughtering the town, our town is located in the middle of nowhere, and it is inaccessible, and if you want to come to that evil cultivator, you will pick this kind of place to do it, and many people will hide elsewhere, and this town will be desolate. ”

Hearing this, Su Ping frowned slightly, he had also heard the news on the road, obviously, this was done by the people who got the Soul Heavenly Residence, in order to nourish the Soul Heavenly Residence.

This is also the reason why he slowed down and often stayed in the town, thinking that it would not be long before he could meet that murderous maniac, Su Ping wanted to see who dared to do this.

At this time, the person who asked the person before answered: "Then why don't you run away?"

The shopkeeper smiled: "Don't worry about these things, besides, where can I go?" ”

Everyone laughed.

"Would you like something to eat?" asked the shopkeeper after a quick turn.

"You can serve whatever you have in this little shop!" said a burly man sitting next to the young man.

The shopkeeper nodded and walked in the direction of the kitchen.
