Chapter 23: The Colosseum

While slowly sitting down, Chu Ling looked around at this down-and-out little tea shop, the tea shop was tattered, extremely simple, and could even be called crumbling, there were several places on the roof that seemed to have small holes exposed, and the sunlight shone through the small holes and sprinkled on the ground.

The operation of the tea shop is also careless, the table is covered with a thick layer of dust, I really can't imagine why such a tea shop exists!

The shopkeeper was originally in a lack of interest and not very positive, but after seeing Chu Ling and Feng Xiyao coming out of the mountain, his eyes immediately flashed with brilliance, and he enthusiastically welcomed the two into the tea shop.

At this time, Chu Ling's throat was like a fire, and he couldn't wait to pour a big bowl of cold water immediately, where could he care about talking so much nonsense with the boss?

The boss was also quite interesting, smiled and groaned, brought two large bowls of tea, and gave two bowls of snacks for two people.

"Goo-goo-goo!" Chu Ling's throat surged up and down, and a bowl of water entered his stomach

After being thirsty for two days, Feng Xiyao had already forgotten all about his demeanor and tutoring since he was a child, drinking water like a cow, and he couldn't wait to eat it with a bowl.

The two monks sitting at the other table looked coldly at the two who were overdrinking, showing a look of disdain, and there was a hint of mockery in their eyes.

The thirst in the throat disappeared immediately.

However, at this moment, Feng Xiyao suddenly collapsed on the edge of the table, unconscious, Chu Ling suddenly frowned, and a feeling of dizziness came to his mind!

"Not good!"

Chu Ling chuckled in his heart, knowing that this tea, I am afraid it is not so clean, this is actually a black shop.

Alas, he only blamed himself for being careless, and he didn't notice it for a while, he didn't expect to fall for such a trick, if it weren't for the burning throat today, he wouldn't have been so careless.

He slammed the table with a "bang", and the plate on the table fell to the ground and shattered, and he tried to alarm the two monks who were hunting nearby, hoping to get help.

However, to his disappointment, the two non-hunters, as if they hadn't seen the movement here, drank and chatted on their own, and suddenly overturned the table on the ground!

And the shopkeeper walked over with a hazy smile, and in the red light on his face, he revealed endless joy.

Anger occupied Chu Ling's heart, and he wanted to resist, but there was a feeling of qi deficiency in his chest, even if he had the divine power to pull out the mountain and cut off the stream, it was difficult to display it.

Immediately afterwards, Chu Ling's eyes went dark, and he fell to the ground, only the faint voice of the shopkeeper in his ears.

Vaguely, he heard the shopkeeper seem to say a few words about the untouchables in the mountains, self-defeating, and the strange immortals, and so on, and he completely lost consciousness......

"Shhh

Chu Ling gasped, slowly opened his eyes, and gently rubbed his numb head while muttering softly:

"Where am I? What about Feng Xiyao? Who did it, could it be that the people of the Wuhua Immortal Sect have already caught up?"

While thinking, Chu Ling instinctively looked around.

It's a dimly lit, humid place, like a dungeon.

In the rest of the dungeons, there were some men who were like him and had explosive muscles, all of whom were dressed as mountain people, but looking left and right, there was no Feng Xiyao.

Looking at the rest of the "cellmates", Chu Ling finally realized why he was arrested, I am afraid that these people are targeting the mountain people who came out of the mountains, and he and Feng Xiyao were naturally arrested because they were wearing the clothes of the mountain people.

As long as he was not a member of the Wuhua Immortal Sect, then there was still room to speak, and Chu Ling secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"It's a mess!"

At this time, while Chu Ling was thinking, a sound of chains ringing came from outside the gate.

Chu Ling followed the sound and saw two pawns guarding the dungeon, driving a blood-stained mountain man walking from outside the door.

The moment the door opened, Chu Ling pricked up his ears, his spiritual power was raised to the peak, and he faintly sensed several crazy roars, coming from outside, like a group of crazy gamblers, desperate to shout!

"Crunch!" the door closes and the sound dies with it.

The two guards set up the big man covered in blood to the cell next to Chu Ling, but they spat and scolded a few times for "bad luck", but bared their teeth and left.

The two pawns were vain in their footsteps and unsteady in their breath, and it seemed easy to solve, and although the fence was made of fine iron, it was not impossible to break.

But Chu Ling thought about it, but still didn't make a move.

First, he didn't know where Feng Xiyao was, so he didn't dare to make a rash move.

Second, he didn't know that although these two pawns were easy to solve, there was no guarantee that there would be no strong players outside.

Moreover, the medicinal properties on his body have not disappeared now, and he cannot exert his powerful combat power.

The Qitan Immortal Scatter in the shopkeeper's mouth is really a strange **, which can not only make the monks of the three realms of the Heavenly Palace lose their perception, but also dissipate the Yuan power.

No wonder he looked at some of the surrounding cells, although some mountain people had cultivated themselves, they did not break out of the prison, it should have always been because of the strange immortals.

However, the dissipation of Yuan Force is not a difficult thing for Chu Ling, because the earth is his dantian, unless the earth is broken, his aura is infinite.

The key is that at this time, the medicinal walk is in the qi veins, blocking the tendons and veins, if you force luck, it is possible to dredge, but it is also possible to burst the meridians around his body, which are not very complete.

"Alas!"

Chu Ling sighed secretly, hurried up, and sat on the ground to practice.

"Alas, young man, don't waste your efforts, the medicinal power of Qitan Immortal Scatter can't be dissolved at all without an antidote, which village are you from?"

At this moment, the weak voice of a middle-aged man came from next door to Chu Ling, it was the man who was seriously injured and carried in.

Although he was covered in blood, the mountain man seemed to be unconscious, chatting with Chu Ling while constantly patting the wounds on his body.

"Smack!"

The monotonous sound of slapping echoed back and forth in the cell, and from time to time it was accompanied by the sound of the man's breath in pain to the bone marrow.

"You ......"

Chu Ling finally couldn't bear to speak.

The man showed a mouthful of white teeth, but it was a unique sign of simple mountain people.

The man shook his head and said indifferently: "It's okay, this is the unique alchemy technique of our village, as long as you persist, you can boil your body as hard as a stone, hiss...... These things are really not human, and what they released today turned out to be a scorching sun demon ape. ”

As he spoke, the man slapped one hand on his heavy wound, gritted his teeth and let out a cry of pain like a beast.

This is the lowest and most primitive physical technique, but looking at the sincere expression on the mountain people's faces, Chu Ling can't bear to break it.

"I'm from Black Mountain, what kind of place is this? Also, when I came, there was a female companion who was caught with me, do you know where she was taken by them?"

The big man glanced at Chu Ling, continued to pat the wounds on his body, and said, "This is the gladiatorial arena, and the people who were caught in were all mountain people who ran out of the mountains. ”

"Gladiatorial arena?" Chu Ling said.

Dahan was not annoyed, and patiently explained to Chu Ling: "This gladiatorial arena is the largest gladiatorial arena in Qinhe City, which is opened by the son of the Qinhe City Lord. ”

"And the ones who fight those ferocious beasts are those who are abandoned by the stockade!"

Hehe, it is still the city people in Zhongzhou who can play, Chu Ling sneered in his heart, Xi Mang is so big, he has never seen these exciting games.

"Hey, boy, why were you abandoned by the people in the village? You just said that there was a woman who came out with you? Could it be that you kidnapped your patriarch's little wife?"

The man joked with Chu Ling quite unofficially, and then laughed to himself, he didn't seem to have spoken for a long time, so he was very excited.

However, Chu Ling ignored his yellow jokes, and just hurriedly asked, "That...... Do you know where my friend was taken?"

The big man shook his head and said, "I didn't see your friend, and when you were sent in, you were the only one, and there were no women." ”

"If there are women, they will not be locked up in this place, I heard that if you catch a female mountain bandit, the appearance is marked, generally sent directly to the Red Mansion as a chicken woman, if the appearance is not good, it will be polished and honest, and sold out as a miscellaneous slave, the mother-in-law from the mountains is capable, and can endure hardships, and honest, it is said that the price is not low?"

"How does your mother-in-law look?"

Hearing the big man say this, Chu Ling chuckled in his heart, and felt a little bad, Feng Xiyao's appearance, I'm afraid that even if it is the entire northwest, I can't pick out a few who can compare with it, from this point of view, I am afraid that he was sent to the Red Mansion.

Although that Miss Feng has a stinky temper, the two of them are also friends who have lived and died together and suffered together, and they can't see death without help.

Thinking of this, Chu Ling was a little anxious in his heart, if he was left alone, he would naturally be blocked by soldiers, covered by water, and he would not be afraid of anything, but when he considered Feng Xiyao, he was not so comfortable.

Seeing Chu Ling's nervous expression, the big man laughed lewdly and said, "It seems that your mother-in-law looks good, haha!"

Dahan continued to entertain himself, and the wounds on his body faintly healed.

Chu Ling was shocked, but the big man smiled bitterly and said, "They sprinkled medicine to help the wound heal in their diet, which is why I healed so quickly." ”

"Besides, there are fewer and fewer mountain people who have been arrested recently, and if one dies, there will be one less gladiator, I'm afraid this is not what they want to see, not to mention that I am still their strongest trump card?"

The big man's tone, with pride, was a little self-deprecating......
