Chapter 798: Burn the agarwood, boil the morning dew
"There's someone here!"
"Bring it on!"
In the midst of the noise and hustle, many warriors gathered around the cellar with solemn expressions.
The two warriors who had just pushed away the stone slab jumped out of the cellar and surrounded Ji Yuenian, one of them looked up and down, and said to Ji Yuenian: "Who are you, why are you hiding in the cellar?" ”
Under the gaze of many warriors, Ji Yuenian walked out of the cellar along the earth steps with a cane on a tree branch, looked around, and said, "Naturally, there is nowhere to go, so I will sleep here." ”
The warrior who was the leader looked at the shabby white robe that Ji Yuenian was wearing, and then saw several hideous scars on his face, as well as the branch crutch that supported his left leg, and subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "It turned out to be a lame beggar who wandered here, I thought I had caught the real murderer of the martial artist of the Imperial City." ”
In the eyes of these martial artists, Ji Yuenian not only did not have the slightest martial arts aura on his body, but he was also a crippled person who was powerless, and it was impossible for him to kill two imperial city warriors in a row.
"Let's go over there and look for it."
With the order of the leader of the warriors, these people all scattered in all directions, but after a few breaths, they left the small courtyard here.
The leader of the martial arts did not leave, but looked at Ji Yuenian carefully again, looked at his pale face full of scars under the cover of his scattered black hair, and said, "Let me ask you, how long have you been wandering here?" ”
Ji Yue said in a young voice: "It's been about dozens of days. ”
The leader of the warriors said, "In these days, have you ever seen two warriors dressed similarly to me?" ”
Ji Yuenian pointed to the riverbank a hundred feet away, and said, "See, those two people crossed the bridge on horseback, silently turned into ashes of grass and trees, and were blown away by the wind. ”
"So you're not just a beggar, you're a crazy fool!"
The warrior leader spat on the ground and turned away.
Ji Yuenian smiled, walked out of the courtyard of the wooden house with a cane, recognized the direction a little, walked onto the official road, and walked towards the place where the Yungu Imperial City was located.
It was the hour when a soft breeze swept across his cheeks and ruffled his jet-black hair that hung down to his fair forehead.
The closer you get to the Yungu Imperial City, there are more and more farmlands on both sides of the official road, and the villages and towns are even more dense.
"Little brother, I see that your breath is weak and your steps are weak, which is a sign of lack of blood, but you are hungry?"
The old but powerful voice came into his ears, Ji Yuenian stopped, looked sideways, and an old man in black riding a red horse was looking at him steadily, and in front of him, there was a little guy holding the reins respectfully.
With some difficulty using his left hand to crutch on the branch, Ji Yuenian shook his head slightly, but did not speak.
The old man in black turned over and got off the horse, his skills were very vigorous, he walked in front of Ji Yuenian, and said with a smile: "Little brother, if you don't dislike it, you are willing to go to the wine shop in front of me to have a few drinks, and I will pay for the wine." ”
Ji Yuenian didn't want to pay attention to it, but when the old man in black turned over and dismounted, he saw the token on the old man's waist at a glance.
Imperial City Division.
The Yungu Imperial City Division has two major seats, commanding more than 300 master martial artists in the Imperial City Division, and its status is extremely high, and it only obeys the orders of the Jiang family, and it is easy not to leave the Yungu Imperial City.
"Then let's go," Ji Yuenian pondered for a moment and answered softly, "But the title of this little brother, you still don't have to call it anymore, when the time comes, you will lose your life in vain, and you will have your own suffering." ”
The old man in black raised his eyebrows, his expression was a little surprised, he looked at Ji Yuenian again and again, and said, "The old man is seventy-nine years old, how can he not call you a little brother?" ”
Ji Yuenian shook his head, no longer spoke, but walked straight towards the wine shop in front of him with a cane on a tree branch.
"Take care of my horse."
The old man in black commanded the little man, and then walked a few steps quickly, followed Ji Yuenian, and said with a smile, "Little brother...... Your Excellency, wait for me. ”
Ji Yuenian had inconvenient legs and feet, and walked slowly, and when he saw him catching up, he said: "If you have something, you can talk to yourself, there is no need to beat around the bush like this." ”
The old man in black pointed to the wine shop not far away and said, "I'll find a quiet place to sit down, wait until we have all the food and drinks, and then talk slowly." ”
Ji Yuenian raised his head, looking at the huge phantom shadow of the Yungu Imperial City hidden between the clouds and mist, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Liquor store.
Private room.
"I see that Your Excellency's blood is weak, so let's eat something first."
With a smile on his face, the old man in black looked at several steaming delicious dishes on the table, picked up the wine cup, and drank a glass to himself, "I haven't been here for more than ten years, and I never thought that the 'Heyun Brewing' in this wine shop is still the same as it was back then, with a strong entrance and a sweet stomach, and the taste has not changed at all." ”
Ji Yuenian held the wooden chopstick, picked up a piece of fragrant beef stew and put it in his mouth, his eyes were a little strange, and he said softly: "I haven't tasted such a dish for a long time." ”
Hearing this, the old man in black thought that he couldn't afford to eat this kind of meat on weekdays, and his smile became more and more obvious, and said: "Although Your Excellency has let go of eating, although the old man is not a rich person, he can still afford a little money for wine and food." ”
After about a stick of incense, Ji Yuenian put down the wooden chopstick, took the silk towel and scrubbed it clean, and said: "The high-ranking imperial city seat actually came to the edge of this Ding Xishao's countryside in person, I don't know what he is trying to do?" ”
The old man in black was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting that his identity had already been recognized by him, but he quickly adjusted his expression, squeezed out a smile on his face, and said, "Your Excellency really has a good eye, then I will say it bluntly." ”
At this point, he put down the wine cup in his hand and looked solemn, "A few days ago, when the warriors of the Imperial City were searching for important criminals, they accidentally found a unique snake and beast monster, this monster is very different from ordinary monsters, according to the news from those warriors, this monster can be said to be full of treasures. ”
After a pause, the old man in black looked at Ji Yuenian fixedly, and continued, "A villager came to report that he once saw this snake, beast and monster walking with a white-robed young man from a distance, this white-robed young man had several scars on his face, and he was even holding a branch and a cane, and there was a lot of inconvenience between actions. ”
Ji Yuenian's eyes were inexplicable, and she said softly: "Do you want to fight this monster's idea?" ”
The old man in black said in a deep voice: "I can't hide it, my granddaughter in my family is terminally ill and urgently needs the snake gall of the monster in the mountains, and it is precisely because of this that I forcibly suppressed all the news about this snake beast monster, and personally rushed over with the elite descendants, and I was bound to capture it as quickly as possible." ”
Ji Yuenian said: "Since you have already found the whereabouts of this monster, why did you come to ask me?" ”
The old man in black glanced at him and said, "Although I don't know why you can walk with youkai, but in this immortal cherry blossom valley, although it is not common for people to be familiar with youkai, there are many records. Since you are so familiar with it, or perhaps more or less aware of its weaknesses, I have come to inquire of you. ”
Ji Yuenian smiled slightly, and said: "No matter what the reason is, don't look for trouble with it, like these martial artists you brought, it is not enough to use it as blood food for tooth sacrifice." ”
As soon as he said this, he stood up and left the restaurant with a cane.
The old man in black looked at Ji Yuenian's departing back and gritted his teeth slightly.
An Imperial City warrior quietly entered the private room and said respectfully, "Si Zuo." ”
The old man in black's face turned cold, and said, "Take two elite warriors, follow this person, if there is any change in him, report to me at any time." ”
"Yes, Siza!"
The warrior answered, and then seemed to think of something, and looked up and asked, "The plan to hunt the black snake monster ......?"
The old man in black snorted coldly and said, "Everything is going according to the original plan!" I don't believe it, a small monster, even if it has some mutations, can still defeat more than 50 elite warriors!? ”
"Yes, Siza!" (End of chapter)
