Chapter 37: The Critical Link
When Zhang Cuicui and Zhong Yan left, in the entire luxury private room, there were only the frosty Nangong Yue'er and the uncle-like Li Feng.
Li Feng didn't expect that he would meet Nangong Yue'er so soon, and he was secretly shocked by the mask that Elder Ying gave him. With a smile, he picked up a roast chicken leg on the table, and while gnawing on it, he asked Nangong Yue'er, "Miss Nangong Yue'er, I don't know what you are looking for this black pattern refining root?"
"I don't need to tell you this!" Nangong Yue'er replied coldly.
"Hehe!" Li Feng smiled, suddenly, his heart twitched violently, because, he felt that there was a murderous aura around him, there were killers! Li Feng suddenly made a decision in his heart, he was sure that there were killers approaching this gloryhouse, and there were quite a few of them.
"Good Nangong Yue'er, I knew you wouldn't be so easy to deal with! Sure enough, it's vicious enough!" Li Feng thought secretly in his heart, but the expression on his face still didn't change, on this bustling street, he was not worried about Nangong Yue'er's hand at all, unless, Nangong Yue'er dispatched a martial king-level master.
Soon, Zhang Cuicui came to this box again with money.
"There are two million gold coins here, you count!" Zhang Cuicui stepped on the golden tickets and threw them in front of the table, these golden tickets were all golden, and the lines depicted on them were very exquisite.
"Hehe, don't be overwhelmed with money!" Li Feng smiled, picked up the money on the table and counted it, then looked up and said to Nangong Yue'er: "Happy cooperation, I hope we will cooperate again next time!"
After finishing speaking, Li Feng walked towards the door of the box, and the black pattern refining root was left on the table by Li Feng.
Zhang Cuicui immediately reached out and grabbed the black-veined refining root, but when her hand was about to touch the black-veined refining root, a red flame suddenly burned in the black-veined refining root. Frightened, she quickly withdrew her hand.
"After the half-pillar incense, this flame will automatically disappear, if something happens to me within the time of this half-pillar incense, this black-veined refining root will be automatically destroyed!" Li Feng's faint voice came from the door.
"Damn!" Nangong Yue'er gritted her teeth in anger, and said to Zhang Cuicui: "Let those people follow him, and do it after half a pillar of incense!"
"Yes!" Zhang Cuicui answered, and then retreated.
After coming out of the drunken mortal joy building, Li Feng felt that there were four people following him closely, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the god and demon superimposed shadow body method in an instant, and his body suddenly accelerated, and disappeared into the bustling street in an instant. The killers who followed him couldn't catch up with him at all.
After half a pillar of incense, the flame on the surface of the black-veined refining root gradually extinguished, and Nangong Yue'er reached out and grabbed the black-veined refining root in her hand, with a thoughtful look on her face.
At this time, Zhang Cuicui rushed in outside the door, "Miss, that person is lost!"
"A bunch of fools!" Nangong Yue'er was so angry that she gritted her teeth, "Let's go, let's go back!"
"Yes!" Zhang Cuicui nodded with some regret, if she could catch that person, she would be able to snatch back the two million gold coins.
When Nangong Yue'er and Zhang Cuicui walked out of the joy building, a figure followed behind them and followed them closely. This figure is Li Feng, who has escaped from the tracking of those killers.
Nangong Yue'er and Zhang Cuicui did not return to her residence, but kept heading towards an ancient castle in the northwest direction of the Nangong family.
The castle was brightly lit, so that those who tried to sneak in had nowhere to hide, and there was a guard standing guard five meters away, and the guard was extremely strict.
"The guards are so strict, Nangong Yue'er's Taiyi Spirit Pill should be refined here!" Li Feng hid in the distance and looked at the ancient castle, and under the illumination of the light, he saw the plaque on the upper room of the gate of the ancient castle, which read: "Black Stone Castle".
Nangong Yue'er and Zhang Cuicui walked into the ancient castle, because the area around the ancient castle was very empty, so even Li Feng did not dare to follow him.
After about a stick of incense, Nangong Yue'er and Zhang Cuicui walked out of it, and Li Feng felt that the black-veined practice root was left in the ancient castle by Nangong Yue'er. On the root of the black vein refining desire, there was a special mark carved by Li Feng with the Tianyuan Qi Cultivation Technique, so he could sense the breath of the black vein refining the root.
"It seems that I have to think of other ways!" Li Feng turned around, quietly left the area where the ancient castle was located, and then wandered around the Nangong family, he swaggered to the aisle inside the Nangong family, and he was not afraid at all, because there were many people on the sidewalk, and there were many people who usually came to the Nangong family as guests, and Li Feng would not attract people's attention at all.
The Nangong family at night is not quiet, many places are bright and noisy all night long, and when passing through these places, Li Feng can feel that there is a lot of strong aura inside.
Li Feng kept walking towards the end of this east-west sidewalk. Probably a few hundred meters forward, there are fewer and fewer houses here.
Not far ahead, when there was a huge martial arts arena, there were still people cultivating inside, and the fluctuations of Xuan Qi were extremely strong, and it was conceivable that that person's cultivation was definitely extraordinary.
He didn't dare to get too close, because he knew that the powerhouses of this realm were very sensitive to the surrounding heaven and earth energy, and as long as he got close, he was very likely to be discovered by others. Just watched from a distance for a while, and it seemed that there were two people fighting. The two of them fought evenly matched.
Seeing others fighting, Li Feng also felt that his hands were already itchy, and he had an urge to rush out and compete with others. But in the end he held back.
Li Feng wandered around, and found that there was no road ahead, under the light of the moon, there was only a dense forest sea, and vaguely, Li Feng felt that in the depths of the forest sea, something seemed to call him. He did feel a strange aura, and a complex and inexplicable emotion surged up in his heart, admiration, respect, and for some reason, a trace of sadness.
"How could this be?" Li Feng suddenly frowned, and just as he was about to walk into the forest sea to take a look, two figures appeared in front of him and stopped him.
"There is a forbidden place ahead, please leave quickly!" Both of them have martial artist-level strength, although Li Feng is not afraid of them, but he doesn't want to cause trouble.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know this was a forbidden place!" Li Feng said to the two guards in front of him, and then turned to leave, and finally, Li Feng entered a forest, looking at the dense forest sea in front of him, he was sure that there must be something in this forest that attracted him No, but what it was, he didn't know.
After standing there in a daze for a while, Li Feng heard the sound of a woman panting from the forest not far away, obviously, there was a man and a woman doing bad things in the forest, Li Feng sneered, and just wanted to go around, but the conversation between men and women caught his attention.
I only heard the woman say, "Why can't you do it so soon? Do it again! People still want it!"
The man said: "Feng'er, it's no good, I'm going to deliver food to those people in the Black Stone Fort later, if you are late, the consequences will be very serious, you go back first, and when I finish delivering the food, I will go to you to find you, and I promise to make you comfortable to death!"
"Where's my belly pocket, give it to me!"
"Hehe, I took this, I'll buy you a new one tomorrow!"
After a while, Li Feng found two figures coming out of the woods, and after the man and woman separated, they walked towards the dining room of the Nangong family.
Li Feng looked at the man's back, and already had a clever plan in his mind. He waited here quietly, knowing that the man had gone in to get his food, and he would pass by here with it.
Sure enough, after about half a pillar of incense, the man carried a large food box and walked towards the place where Li Feng was. When the man passed by Li Feng, he was taken into the woods by Li Feng at once.
Li Feng killed this person very simply, found a belly pocket on this guy's body, hesitated, he frowned and took this belly pocket into his arms. It's not that Li Feng has a hobby in this area, but he knows that wait a minute, this belly pocket will play an important role, otherwise he wouldn't have put a woman's belly pocket in his arms.
"Those who achieve great things are unyielding!" Li Feng thought secretly in his heart, he opened the food boxes, sprinkled some medicinal powder on them, and then got out of the woods and walked towards the black stone castle.
When he came to the gate of Blackstone Castle, Li Feng took the initiative to walk towards one of the guards.
"Stop, who are you, how did you get here?" the guard immediately stopped Li Feng.
"This big brother, I, I'm here to deliver food!" Li Feng pretended to be scared, and then reached out and touched his chest.
"Isn't the person who delivered the food Zhang Han?" The guard couldn't help frowning, you put the lunch box on the ground, walked over, and asked me to search my body. This guard is an old fritter, he can see at a glance that Li Feng has a problem, and he is a new face.
"Oh!" Li Feng nodded, put the food box on the ground, and then walked up to the guard with a nervous expression, and the guard then began to search Li Feng's body, and immediately searched a belly pocket.
"Where did this thing come from?" the guard said to Li Feng with a calm face.
"This is me peeking at my boss and his horse in the woods doing that, after the work, they forgot to take it, so I" At the end, Li Feng 'shyly' lowered his head.
"Damn, it's Zhu Meifeng's little slut's belly pocket! I said why is this smell so strong!" The guard immediately threw away the belly pocket in his hand.
"Hahaha! I didn't think you would have today, Captain!" The guards around couldn't help but laugh when they saw the guard like this, and their vigilance against Li Feng also relaxed a lot.
"Let's go!" the captain of the guard said to Li Feng with some anger, "Let's go, remember, after entering the gate, take the leftmost passage!"
"Thank you, big brother!" Li Feng said to the guard with a grateful face, then picked up the food box and walked into the black stone castle.
At this moment, Nangong Yue'er returned to her residence, she was sitting on the bench covered with animal skins, her brows furrowed. Zhang Cuicui found that after returning from the drunken mortal joy building, her own young lady frowned all the way.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Cuicui couldn't help but ask, she rarely saw her own young lady like this.
Suddenly, Nangong Yue'er slapped the table and exclaimed, "It's him! It's that Li Feng! Go, I'll hurry to Black Stone Castle!"
"What's wrong?" Zhang Cuicui didn't know why Nangong Yue'er was like this, and her expression was very puzzled.
"Hurry up, it's too late to explain!" Nangong Yue'er immediately rushed out of her residence, and although Zhang Cuicui had doubts, she still chased after her.
