Chapter 329: Entering the Game

The next day, Xiao Cong and Hongxiang began to prepare for the three "little things" that Yin Nuo should go down to Hu Laoshuo, originally thought that it would be enough to send Hongxiang to solve it alone, and even Xiao Cong didn't have to make a move, so that he could further show the extraordinary character of the three people, but for the sake of insurance, before the action, Xiao Cong and Hongxiang acted separately, or carefully investigated, the result was that they didn't know if they didn't check, and they were shocked when they checked. To say that this North Street is also a place of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, even Yin Nuo has a super master of crossing the river realm, and it is not surprising that there are a few star pickers, or it is said that Xiao Cong and Hongxiang will be wrong before, under normal circumstances, the strong people of the Heaven Realm can indeed walk sideways on the North Street as long as they are not so unlucky! After all, a master like the late stage of the Star Picking Heaven Realm is disdainful of seeing short-lived ghosts who cause trouble.

These two can't be solved by Hongxiang alone, there is no way, they can only rely on Xiao Cong and Yin Nuo to go out in person, I really don't know what kind of heart Hu Lao Bolt has! Yin Nuo said that these three little things are definitely not from the mouth of the above, but Hu Laozhuan's personal affairs, people who can achieve such a status in the Valley of Forgotten Life, there must be many mortal enemies, so he took the opportunity to give Yin Nuo the opportunity to go to the hunting city to kill people with a knife, he has his abacus, anyway, Yin Nuo does not know the truth of these commissions, and when the servants enter the hunting city, whether they can come back alive or not, it is not certain whether they want to come back or not! Besides, they are all using people's money to eliminate disasters for others, and it is different who kills people! Of course, Yin Nuo really thinks so in his heart.

Xiao Cong didn't care much about this, he also had his thoughts and people in the Valley of Forgetfulness, except for Hu Laozhuan himself, no one could say what other plans he had in his heart, the more powerful the person he could kill, the more ruthless the means of killing, and the higher the prestige he would establish, which could play a deterrent role to a certain extent.

So the three of them didn't make a total, and directly assigned the master of the Star Picking Realm cultivation to Yin Nuo, Xiao Cong was responsible for slaughtering the late Heavenly Realm Hongxiang with the cultivation of the early Heavenly Realm can kill the long-shirt cat of the mid-Heavenly Realm Great Perfection and his dog slave of the mid-Heavenly Realm Great Perfection, if Xiao Cong can't show his extraordinary performance, it is really a bit unreasonable, of course, the extraordinary play is the extraordinary play, if the cultivation of the middle of the Heavenly Realm slaughters the star-picking star, then it is time for some people to think about it, Mu Xiu Yu Lin Feng will destroy it, Xiao Cong will not play himself to deathIn the end, there was only one poor worm left in the middle of the Heavenly Realm, and it was left to Hongxiang.

There is no need to wait until nightfall, the three of them attacked directly in broad daylight, and made the assassination so vigorous that it is not called assassination, it has to be called picking quarrels and provoking trouble, this idea was put forward by Xiao Cong, Yin Nuo raised his hands in favor, in his words, Lao Tzu has lived in North Street for nearly three hundred years, and now he wants to leave here to go to Hunting City, how can he leave a strong mark for everyone to remember me, pick up the stars, tsk, think about it and feel agitated!

As soon as Yin Nuo's words fell, he heard Hongxiang taunt without yin or yang:

"A master of crossing the river realm can be complacent in order to kill a star-picker, it's really sad to think about it, and it's agitated! ”

Yin Nuo didn't have time to provoke Hongxiang, but just spitted,

"You know!"

So, the three of them went out happily.

For five or six hours, the three adjacent rooms were empty.

In the blink of an eye, it was dusk again.

Xiao Cong has been walking back and forth on North Street for five or six hours, during which he has not returned to the inn, and he has not even had time to eat lunch, and he doesn't know if the guy he chose has the habit of going out day and night, but he happened to encounter something and couldn't get out, or he knew what the wind was and hid, anyway, Xiao Cong had already searched back and forth in North Street and the alleys and alleys along North Street a few times, and he didn't find any trace of that guy.

He kept thinking about it, feeling that he seemed to be missing something, but he thought about it dozens of times, but he still didn't have a clue, because he felt that his mind was too chaotic now, and he thought that the Valley of Forgotten Life he had seen before was ridiculous enough, but it wasn't until today that he realized that what he saw before was just a child's house, compared to the secrets that can't be said in these alleys, it's just a small thing, no, it's an old witch!

Enslavement, captivity, poisoning, torture, and all sorts of indescribable sexual scenes, and the extermination of each other for pleasure, are terrifying, chilling, and beasts don't do that! If you take an ordinary mortal from the outside world and walk around here, it won't take long to drive people crazy.

He suddenly felt that living seemed to be a very painful and difficult thing, he was thinking, these people who did this camp in the shadows were out of their own will or forced to be helpless, if they were forced to be helpless, then compared with them, is it a little easier to live, although in the entire Xuanzhen world is the existence of street rats, dare not go home, dare not show people with their true faces, do everything before thinking about it, step by step is like walking on thin ice, but at least now he still has the freedom to go wherever he wants, and he has the rationality to know what he wants to do and what he should do, because of these, he is at least a person, a person in the traditional sense.

When I walked into those alleys and alleys before, or went to Hu Laozhuan Mansion and Baozhuang, it may be because these two places are considered to be places with doors and faces on North Street, so the neighborhood and along the way are quite clean, or it may be that Yin Nuo deliberately bypassed these places of dirt and dirt when taking them to take them to take into account their feelings, but not seeing does not mean that there is none, and sometimes there must be in life, this is not about to leave North Street, or you have to see it by mistake, this is the damn providence!

Xiao Cong really didn't care much about what he felt in his heart, what he was thinking was, how would Hongxiang feel when he saw it? Although he has experienced a lot of things in the days that have followed him, he is still a child after all, and Xiao Cong can clearly feel that in fact, Hongxiang has always been forced to laugh, he doesn't like these, just to repay Xiao Cong's kindness, he has been trying hard to force himself to accept, digest hard, and try to forget, although Xiao Cong can see it, but he doesn't say it thoroughly, because he is helpless about it, he has to go through this, if he doesn't let Hongxiang go through this, he will drive him away, but Xiao Cong is really reluctant, don't say that he is reluctant, will Hongxiang be willingTo be honest, he couldn't figure it out, but he felt that Hongxiang would still choose to follow him and endure this, because more often, those only two people didn't have to face any time, Hongxiang's happiness was very real.

He walked forward while thinking, and the people around him were scattered, and it seemed that they had never decreased, but although he raised his head, he never took the initiative to pay attention to these, as if he was instinctively raising his legs, stepping, and dodging, his body was in this world, and his soul was in another world.

The sky slowly darkened, as usual, step by step, not in a hurry, Xiao Cong turned into an alley again, habitually glanced up, the vision seemed to be no different from other alleys, potholes and bare dirt beside the narrow road, occasionally there will be one or two wilted ghosts who don't know what to hollow out, empty under ragged clothes, and it seems that they may be blown up by the wind at any time.

His head nodded, and then he raised it suddenly, like a chicken blood, the most dazzling thing was the pair of brilliant eyes, he saw a person coming out of a dilapidated courtyard, although it was only a quick glance, but he believed that it was one of the portraits that Hu Lao Xuan showed him, and it was the one he chose!

"Good guy, I've been looking for you for a day, and it turns out that it's a cat in a broken place here!"

Xiao Cong didn't know where the anger came from, so he rushed forward with an arrow step, and the straight to the point was a slap in the face.

The other party seems to be in good shape, but he didn't expect that his body style is also good, with Xiao Cong's tricky methods in the middle of the Heavenly Realm, which can be compared to picking stars, he only blew off a piece of the opponent's clothes!

One blow failed, Xiao Cong didn't stop, turned around and attacked again, but at this time, he saw that the expression on the other party's face seemed to be smiling, it looked like a mockery, he secretly felt bad in his heart, so he quickly withdrew his hand, swept a few feet to the side and turned back.

"Bang la la"

A pitch-black chain suddenly stretched out from the dilapidated yard, with a pipa hook stuck at the end, like a black snake rushing to the place where Xiao Cong had just stopped, and he stood up, but he heard a "bang", and in a blink of an eye, he shrank towards the dilapidated yard, and there was a "bang", a little later, a big man with a height of more than ten feet walked out of the door again, with all his body muscles coiled in Wolong, lush hair but bare on the top of his head, like a straight, black-haired gorilla, the chain was wrapped around his waist, and the pipa hook at the end of the chain was being held in his hand.

This is not over, followed by the big man, there are two people, one short and fat and one tall and thin, the short and fat guy is holding a pair of ghost-patterned gilt bells in his hand, and the tall and thin one is holding a fox tail star chasing gun, Xiao Cong noticed it a little, and found that the four people except for the guy who came out of the courtyard first and was of medium stature was in the late stage of the Heavenly Realm, and the fat man turned out to be the late stage of the Heavenly Realm, and the other two were all in the middle of the Heavenly Realm

Look!

He carefully calculated in his heart, two late days of the Heavenly Realm plus two middle stages of the Heavenly Realm, unless they are talented or have some excellent means, they are far from being as good as one of the stars, Hongxiang retreated the night before with the strength of one person in the early stage of the Heavenly Realm against the two mid-stage of the Heavenly Realm, and now he uses the strength of the early stage of the Heavenly Realm to defeat two late days of the Heavenly Realm and two middle stages of the Heavenly Realm, it doesn't sound too much, after all, these two guys are just two feet in the late stage of the Heavenly Realm, and he, but he is the one who has the remnants of "Donkey Kong"!

But now there is another question, why is it that there are four people who said that they were good? Is this the reason why he has been looking for these guys for nearly a day? Is this why he is too much to carry this point, or is this really too coincidental?

The four people on the opposite side stood in a row, looking at Xiao Cong who stood silently under the gray robe outside the three zhang away like a clown, Xiao Cong's half white little face was hidden in the shadow of the long brim of the sunset, only two full but cold lips were exposed, and the atmosphere tightened in a short time, but the two sides did not take further action after that round, and the four guys on the opposite side did not take further action, and it was a bit strange not to even say anything, this is not like the duel scene with the disparity of strength between the two sides written in the book, I should say a few words disgusting and disgusting Xiao Cong, but unfortunately not, maybe this is a duel between masters.

If the enemy does not move, I will not move, and if the enemy wants to move, I will move first, and I don't know if I can explain it in this way.

There seems to be an inexplicable gust of wind blowing gently without warning, this wind touched a silent and colorless and invisible string stretched here, at this moment, the five figures turned into five streamers and brushed to the middle to focus, and I don't know who moved the steps first, who didn't press the surging breath first.

Xiao Cong's hands turned golden, needless to say the three with weapons on the opposite side, but the medium-sized Heavenly Realm was bare-handed like Xiao Cong in the late stage of the Heavenly Realm, but the difference was that Xiao Cong's hands were now hand knives, and his hands were now two slender and sharp claws, the nails were as sharp as knives, the five fingers were thin and almost impossible to see the flesh, the big man with a chain around his waist and the thin and tall man with a foxtail star-chasing gun in his hand looked like they had no characteristics except for fancy, but the fat man holding a ghost-patterned gilt bell, although he looked clumsy, in fact, among several people, he was the most flexible。

The few people on the other side are not vegetarians, but Xiao Cong is not frightened, I saw that he was unstoppable, easily dodged the chains drawn by the big man, and dodged the spear swept by the thin and tall man in an extremely strange posture, with "Donkey Kong" The remnant hand and the ghost claws of the target prey shook hard, and finally turned over and kicked on the ghost pattern gilt bell that the fat man hid behind the target prey, how could he be completely blocked by the former's body, although the routine is a little rough, but it can still be very good to cooperate with the fight, if it is replaced by an ordinary person, maybe it can really make this ruthless guy succeed, and if you are unlucky, you may have to lose half a life, of course, it is easy not to lose half a life in the Valley of Forgetfulness, one wrong step is lost all over the plate, no accident, if you lose this round, you must lose your whole life here。

Xiao Cong's flipped body in the air had not yet fallen, and the chains of the big man were rushing at great speed again, the tall and thin man with a spear followed closely, and the target prey was only a little slower than the tall and thin one with two ghost claws, and the fat man was only a little slower than the tall thin one because of the solid tonnage of the chassis, Xiao Cong's kick just now failed to shake him, so at this time, he squatted and stood less than three feet away from Xiao Cong, and the two ghost-patterned gilt bells attacked and defended one by one, looking at the posture, he didn't want Xiao Cong's life, but he suddenly improvised to prevent Xiao Cong from opening the gap from him and escaping。

The means of the four people almost blocked all of Xiao Cong's retreat, although the cooperation was close, but it was far from the point of being seamless, Xiao Cong only knew at a glance that except for the target prey with two ghost claws, the others were bluffing, in order to interfere with his train of thought, so that he panicked and sent himself to the tiger's mouth behind the ghost claws of the target prey, so he took the initiative to attack, and slapped his palm on the ghost gilt bell that the fat man used to attack with the strength of his body flipping, and his body flew up obliquely after his arm stiffened, and he skillfully dodged the pipa hook at the end of the chain of the big man, just at this time the thin and tall spear attacked fiercely, After a miss, he didn't forget to pick it up hard, but Xiao Cong's speed was too fast, his palms clasped together and clamped the tip of his gun, the thin and tall man looked angry, and twisted the gun with both hands, thinking that he could strangle Xiao Cong's palm holding the tip of the gun, but Xiao Cong was also experienced in a hundred battles, and while feeling the force of the palm, his waist stiffened suddenly, and he swung sideways in the direction of the rotation of the tip of the gun, so that the thin and tall man fell short again.

Seeing this scene, the four of them glanced at each other, their faces were a little more ruthless, Xiao Cong, who was still rising in the air, saw all this clearly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook an evil arc, he floated down on the wall, hugged his shoulders and looked at the four people with their own characteristics condescendingly, with a look of disdain and interest, but he heard him say in that hoarse and strange voice:

"Is there any means that are best used quickly, I don't have so much patience to play with you. ”

After speaking, he turned over and went down the wall, the two sleeves burst open, the palm knife and the forearm turned golden, shining under the shroud of the night that had just landed, and the arms were like a tiger with golden holy wings, bringing a gust of wind, rushing towards the four people on the opposite side, before it was just to test the depth of the opposite side, this time, Xiao Cong was going to move seriously.

There is no blade in his hand, and Mi Mustard can't show people, but as a person who came out of Tiandaoxuan, he can perform a few things in eighteen kinds of martial arts, in Xiao Cong's eyes, dealing with these people is like dealing with those fierce beasts when he was in the near sun desert, there is no need to look down on them, just play sloppily, since there is no blade in his hand, then only the fist palm is left, since he used the river palm at the beginning, then he might as well show them a little more hand, and then use the set of Kaishan Fist, no matter how he plays, with his strength in the middle of the Heavenly Realm, it is more than enough to deal with the four opposite。

To tell the truth, this turning the river palm and Kaishan Boxing are not powerful martial arts, but together they are the effect of one plus one is greater than two, not to mention being played by Xiao Cong at will, one punch and one palm are tigers and tigers, the most headache is that in addition to this, there are also King Kong's forearms and palms, the biao-shaped big man has a chain tied to a pipa hook, the thin and tall man has a star-chasing gun with a fox tail, and the fat man has a ghost-patterned gilt bell of non-ordinary material, the three of them can also rely on the weapons in their hands to occasionally have a hard encounter with Xiao Cong, but the target prey has nothing but a pair of ghost claws, and these ghost claws can't do Xiao CongDonkey Kong , Fighting alone and every move is crushed to death, and he is at a loss for what to do, which is for a master of the late stage of the Heavenly Realm who is fighting against the middle of the Heavenly Realm, the end is to be more aggrieved and aggrieved, but no matter how unconvinced he is, he still has to obediently retreat to the back, and give up the main attack position to the thin and tall man holding the foxtail star chasing gun, and the three hands in front of him contain Xiao Cong's hands, he is constantly looking for opportunities in the back to do some work to provoke the yin and sneak attack, this set of operations is not good for him to play, as if his pair of ghost claws were originally used to do this.

Even though the four people on the other side changed their combat routines, Xiao Cong still had a lot of fun, and didn't you want to rely on a few broken copper and iron to contain my hands? I especially didn't let you succeed! Didn't you let that ghost paw retreat back to be a shrinking turtle? Okay, I'll just hit him and see if any of you can stop me!

So this girl performed another set of "Eight Pole Legs" To deal with the fat ghost pattern gilt bell, legend has it that this is a certain sea master to take a boat to watch the octaclaw monster and another sea monster to realize, although it is still difficult to get into the elegant hall, but how much is a bit of a grade, at this time to deal with this fat man, but really to this guy face gold, the remaining two hands one is used to deal with the chain of the big man and the thin and tall fox tail star chasing gun, one is used to chase and kill the target prey that is constantly hiding, one dozen four he should have been passive, but he was stunned to be a life and anti-guest, the four guys slipped around, like four stupid dogs。

As Xiao Cong's offensive became more and more aggressive, there were more and more loopholes in the cooperation between the four opposite, at this moment, he saw the opportunity, jumped up with a bow in the air, kicked away the ghost pattern gilt bell swept by the fat man, and at the same time wrapped his arm around the thin and tall foxtail star chasing gun, the chain of the big man had just been retracted before he could work again, Xiao Cong's other hand hit the left shoulder of the target prey with a surging river palm, this guy has been cringing behind to make it bad, but unfortunately just thinking about it is broken, I didn't expect his partner to be so unreliable to give Xiao Cong such a chance, and as a result, Xiao Cong was smashed half of his shoulder, seeing that this arm must be useless.

After playing for so long, Xiao Cong also felt tired, it was really not interesting for him to fight like this, if it wasn't for the search for the Hades Wu clan, he wouldn't have bothered to act with these local chickens and dogs, the target prey has been injured now, and it is not fun to fight again, besides, injuring this guy is completely based on combat skills, if the four of them are killed, will it arouse the suspicion of some people? The thinking in the valley of forgetfulness, unscrupulous means to accept the good, can make eight points of strength, will never exhaust the strength, now the opportunity is in front of you, this matter should be over.

So he simply did

Gave the latter a clean cut and shot a hidden weapon, which pierced the heart of the target prey without any mistake, and the guy was still staggering backwards after being hit, and died before he could stabilize his body.

The remaining three of them froze in place, looking surprised, probably because they didn't expect the matter to end so quickly, and it was diametrically opposed to what they had expected, which was beyond the scope of their thinking, or it was because they didn't expect that the servant of the demon sword Yin Nuo would actually use a hidden weapon, which was beyond the scope of their understanding, and it was also possible that it was because they saw a master of the late Heavenly Realm die so easily at the hands of a mid-Heavenly Realm kid, which was beyond the scope of what they could bear, and it was more likely... ... Of course, whatever the possibility, people are dead now.

According to Xiao Cong's understanding of the people of the Valley of Forgotten Lives, the rabble is scattered, and all cooperation is a bundle of no feelings and only interests, so in this situation, the protagonist is dead and unprofitable, and this scene should come to an end.

But what he never expected was that after the death of a target prey, the remaining three incompetent people would continue to fight with him, and it seemed that he had a bit of undying energy, Xiao Cong couldn't help sneering in his heart It seems that something strange has really happened today, and he can still meet such a deep partner in the Valley of Forgotten Life, isn't it that I had some ideological misunderstanding here before?

He didn't have the heart to think about it more, nor did he have the heart to entangle with the remaining three incompetent people, just dealt with them with the real fire for a few rounds, and then threw out a series of hidden weapons to cover and walked away, although it was not the spirit retreat that blessed the foot power, but with his speed, there was no need for the spirit retreat, as long as he escaped out of this street and blended into the crowd with the offensive of "Eight Pole Legs", even if it was a fish swimming into the sea, he would escape.

Xiao Cong thought that this matter was done beautifully, so when he returned to the inn, his mood became extraordinarily good, of course, the joy in his heart still could not be expressed on his face, even though the brim of his long hat was still covered on his forehead, and he kept his head down so that others could not see his face.

Although I know that if those three people really bite him, they will chase him to the inn sooner or later, after all, because of Hongxiang and Yin Nuo's affairs in the past two days, the names of the three of them have been very loud on North Street, but how can any stupid person go back to the lair directly after getting into trouble, so those three incompetent people probably have to look for a while on the street and in the corners, and decide to come here to find it, it should take a while, but even if they are found, what can they do, there is Yin Nuo's support here, and there is a mid-stage Heavenly Realm powerhouse plus an early Heaven Realm powerhouse, and when they come, they can only run away with their tails between their legs!

But when he walked up the stairs and walked through the three rooms, he found that the three rooms were empty, and Yin Nuo and Hongxiang had not returned yet.

I couldn't help but have a little ominous premonition in my heart.

"The person clearly pointed out by Hu Laozhuan, I actually looked for a day to find it, one person who was supposed to be good, but it turned out to be four, all of them died, but they still pestered me, these are not a coincidence! I was wrong from the beginning, they were all arranged by Hu Laozhuan to wait for me there, the so-called trivial matter, is to break the three of us one by one!"

After a while, Xiao Cong took a deep breath, and then slowly spit it out, but this could not reduce the anger in his heart, so he couldn't help but clench his fists, gritted his teeth and said:

"His ancestors!"

Things have been delayed for so long, even if he is driving Ling Yin over now, I am afraid that he will not be able to return to the sky, because he doesn't even know where the two of them are now, North Street is not very big, but it is definitely not small, it took him nearly a day to find the master of the Heavenly Realm he chose during the day, and now it is the lights of thousands of homes outside the street, it is not easy to find Yin Nuo and Hongxiang! If Hu Laozhuan has succeeded, it will be even more troublesome,

But he still couldn't let go of Hongxiang, so he decided to look for it, even if it was just for peace of mind.

Turning his head gloomily, he suddenly saw a burly and tall figure standing quietly at the top of the stairs waiting, dressed extraordinarily and with a rough face, it was Hu Laoshuan.

Seeing Xiao Cong turn his head, Hu Laozhuan began to walk forward unhurriedly from the staircase, his face was not happy, he walked to Xiao Cong's side, turned his face and smiled slightly, and said calmly:

"I heard from them that you escaped by luck, so I came to sit with you, won't you invite me in for a drink?"

Xiao Cong endured the turbulent anger in his heart, tried to keep calm, and replied in that hoarse and strange voice without raising his head:

"Please!"

Then he turned and walked in the door.

Stepping across the door and walking forward, standing silently at the Eight Immortals table in the room, with an honest and calm posture, Hu Laozhuan walked behind Xiao Cong, always no more than a foot away from the former, and then sat down on the round stool next to the Eight Immortals table, raised his face and smiled slightly:

"Come, sit, you are not my servant, there is no need to be subservient to me. ”

Xiao Cong didn't say anything, just walked a few steps to the right and then sat on the round stool, his hands on his thighs, his body straight, still the feeling of being honest and calm.

"Actually, you are not dull, on the contrary, you are very smart, otherwise it is impossible to kill Li Xiaoba from the four of them, this is indeed beyond my plan. ”

After a pause, seeing that Xiao Cong still didn't react, he continued:

"I think you already know about this, but it's certainly not comprehensive, I don't mind telling you my whole plan, it's already settled anyway, do you want to hear it?"

Leaning less, Xiao Cong finally spoke,

"There is no need to listen to what has already been settled. ”

Hu Laozhuan grinned a few times, and sighed slightly:

"Yes, there is no need to say anything that has been settled, you are a very direct person, then I will make a long story short with you, Yin Nuo is gone, you will never go to the hunting city, good birds choose trees to perch, and those who know the times are Junjie, you might as well follow me in the future, in the Valley of Forgotten Life, it will definitely not be worse than following Yin Nuo, what do you think?"

Xiao Cong replied succinctly,

"It's hard. ”

"Oh, how so, tell me. Hu Laoshuan's face was interesting.

"He has my handle in his hand, he will not die, I dare not act rashly. Xiao Cong replied.

Hu Laozhuan laughed a few more times, and said calmly:

"That's a good thing to say, I know what you mean, if you want, you can kill him with your own hands. ”

"Where is he?" Xiao Cong's tone did not fluctuate.

"Here. As he spoke, Hu Laozhuan took out a three-inch-long paper roll from his sleeve and gently placed it next to the tea bowl in front of Xiao Cong, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he looked at Xiao Cong with a gloomy face.

Xiao Cong stretched out his hand from under the gray robe, picked up the paper roll and retracted it back under the gray robe, got up and walked out the door.

But after hearing Hu Laozhuan get up, he shouted:

"It's your brother who is the little one. ”

The sound echoed in the quiet corridor, but Xiao Cong's footsteps did not stop, and he still walked forward unhurriedly, as if he didn't hear it.

Walking out of the inn and merging into the bustling flow of people, Xiao Cong breathed a long sigh of relief, relieved but like adding to the burden, his steps looked heavy and heavy, but heavier and heavier than his steps was his weak heart, the heaviness of this heart almost affected the gravitational force around him, making the air around him squeeze together, pressing into an airtight and dull space that was different from the surroundings, and slowly moved forward with his footsteps.

He knew that Hu Laozhuan might be standing by the window looking at him now, so he didn't look back, and kept that calm and indifferent pace, but this exhaustion from the bottom of his heart, he really couldn't resist, how uncomfortable this taste was, only he knew, and the last time he felt this feeling, it was several years ago, and that was when he just heard the news of the collapse of the Xiao family.

He withdrew his hands from under his gray robe, unfolded the paper roll and looked at it, then crumpled the paper into a ball, retracted his hands back into his sleeves, and walked on, until he came to a corner, and turned into an alley, where he could no longer support it, and leaned weakly against the wall by the narrow road, covering his face with his hands and gasping for breath, his back rubbing against the wall and slowly sliding down until he sat on the ground, and the breathing continued.

When his breathing gradually calmed down, he lowered his hand and tilted his head slightly, because of the long brim of his hat, even by the light of the fire thrown from the street, he still couldn't see his face clearly, but he could see that the little mouth was slightly open, but through this slightly open little mouth, it seemed that he could imagine those eyes, those eyes full of tiredness and sorrow.

"This is not Xiao Cong, this is not Xiao Cong. He muttered quietly.

He took another deep breath, then exhaled heavily, as if he had lifted up all his strength, slowly stood up, rubbed his face vigorously, and continued to walk forward, each step still looking heavy, but vaguely feeling a lot more resolute.

Fighting with the sky and the earth is endless, this is the Xiao family, and now he is just a Hu Laozhuan who dominates the North Street of Wangsheng Valley, how can he admit it as a member of the Xiao family, what Xiao Tianyu once said, he always remembers,

"There must be a crisis in the midst of life, and there must be a door behind the crisis, in this world, there is no situation that cannot be broken!"
