Chapter 451: Mysterious Old Monk
A quiet night.
But when Qin Yun got up the next morning, a strong wind blew in the Xiangshui Collection, and the gray sky made people's hearts palpitate, and the wind howled mixed with a little sand and stone hit the roof tile stone wall, making a small cracking sound.
When Qin Yun came up from downstairs, there were many guests in the inn gathered in the hall to talk in a low voice, and a few business travelers sighed and looked quite depressed, and the atmosphere seemed a little depressed.
Seeing such a situation, Qin Yun's heart moved, and he didn't rush to the tavern, he called a guy from the inn and asked about it, and only then did he know the reason.
Originally, Xiangshuiji was located on the edge of the West Sea steppe, the north is the vast Gobi Desert, often affected by sandstorms in the north, although this effect does not hurt the city much, the local residents have long been accustomed to the wind and sand raging weather, but the caravan to the north is bound to not make the trip.
No one dares to rush when the sandstorm comes, the terrible sandstorm can sweep away all living things on the ground, and can easily sweep a camel team into the air, even the high-ranking powerhouses can hardly resist its power.
Most of the people living in the inn are merchants, and there are several caravans that are going to Mobei today and tomorrow, and they can only stay in Xiangshuiji when the sandstorm comes, and their mood is naturally depressed, but this is also a helpless thing.
It wasn't just those merchants who were depressed, Qin Yun was the same, because the Sand City Demon Domain happened to be in the desert north of Xiangshuiji, and there was a sandstorm, how could he go?
However, regardless of whether he could make the trip or not, Qin Yun was ready to go to the tavern first.
But he had just stepped out of the inn door. I found that Mrs. Lin actually brought someone over.
Qin Yun felt a little strange in his heart, because if it was for the guide's business. She didn't need to come over in person, just send someone or just wait for him to come to the door.
With doubts, Qin Yun welcomed her into the inn and sat down in the corner of the side hall.
"Little guy, there's a sandstorm in the north, you can't go to the Shacheng Demon Domain for two days!" Lin Niangzi said to him: "But Lao Cheng's agreement is still valid, you are bold in making a move, and you actually gave him more than a dozen gold leaves!"
Qin Yun smiled slightly and said, "As life money." It's not much."
Lin Niangzi smiled: "You little guy is quite interesting, but I didn't come to talk about Lao Cheng's affairs this time, anyway, he will definitely help you do things after receiving your money, so I will wait for two or three days." ”
After a pause, she continued: "I just got the news that Lei Laohu's side may be unfavorable to you, and I heard that a few worship masters were invited to help. So you have to be careful these days, don't leave the inn if it's okay, no matter how fierce he is, he won't dare to break into the inn to make trouble. ”
Qin Yun's eyes suddenly froze: "Is this little thing a trivial matter?
He just slapped the third man of Xie twice, and the other party actually mobilized the crowd to invite the worship master, which was too trivial. Of course, this is not to say that Qin Yun is afraid of the other party, but it feels ridiculous.
"What kind of thing is Xie Laosan, I can pinch him to death with my hand!"
Lin Niangzi said disdainfully: "But Lei Laohu loves face, Xie Laosan's sister is his concubine, and anything can happen when the pillow wind blows." But I'm sure Tiger Hall is probably by the way that he dealt with you, and Lei Laohu and I are old enemies. Last night he swept his face, and I guess I want to get back on the field!"
There was a hint of murder in her eyes: "Tiger Hall has been becoming more and more unruly recently. Tricks are played on my turf, sooner or later he and I will have to fight, I don't know the pain if I don't cut off a few of his hands and feet!"
"So if you're in trouble, come to the tavern and find me. ”
Qin Yun understood that the forces represented by Lin Niangzi and Lei Laohu's side had already had grudges and contradictions, and he just happened to be involved in it, which became the trigger for the conflict between the two sides.
Lin Niangzi did not shy away from this, let alone take the opportunity to take advantage of him, and deliberately came to the door to tell Qin Yun the truth of the matter frankly, which is enough to show her frankness and sincerity.
Qin Yun clenched his fists and said, "Thank you, boss!"
There are many dragons and snakes in the recklessness, although Lin Niangzi is a woman, but her bold atmosphere is not under a man, Qin Yun has a good impression of her, but she doesn't think that she needs the protection of the other party.
Lin Niangzi waved her hand with a big grin: "I said that you don't need to be so polite, the responsibility for this matter lies with me, I will find a way to settle the matter and will not delay your affairs, so you can rest assured!"
Qin Yun nodded, but he had his own plans in his heart.
Lin Niangzi didn't stay at the inn for long, and after a few idle words, she quickly led people out of the inn.
After waiting for a while, Qin Yun also left the inn.
He didn't forget Lin Niangzi's warning, but as Lin Niangzi said, what is Xie Laosan? What is Lei Laohu? Is Tiger Hall still a big sect?
As a disciple of the Heavenly City Sword Sect, if Qin Yun was afraid of the third-rate forces of the mere family, he shrank in the inn as a turtle with a shrunken head, then what kind of face did he have to participate in the West Sea Martial Arts Conference and compete with the masters of his peers?
He strolled alone on the streets of Xiangshuiji, where there were significantly fewer pedestrians due to the sandstorm, and many shops were not even open, making it seem rather deserted, but the taverns and liquor shops were still lively and gathered more customers.
After walking for a short time, Qin Yun found that he had a few more "tails" behind him, and there were about three or four people at the beginning, and the movements were sneaky and followed very closely, and the number continued to increase.
It's a good time! Qin Yun smiled coldly in his heart, pretending not to know and moving on.
However, before he had walked a hundred paces, the road ahead was blocked!
Dozens of fierce gray-shirted warriors appeared at the end of the long street, they carried swords and swords with hideous faces, and there were figures in the alleys next to them shaking and swords, and many pedestrians who passed by saw this and fled from the place of right and wrong, and the proprietors and men of the nearby shops immediately erected wooden planks and closed the doors.
In Qin Yun's rear, more than a dozen trackers brazenly pressed up and formed an encirclement around him.
A burly giant man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist stepped forward, he touched the tiger head tattoo on his chest, and smiled at Qin Yun: "You are the guy who doesn't know whether to live or die?
Qin Yun said lightly, "Then what do you want?"
"It's very simple!" The burly giant man's eyes were fierce, and he stretched out his furry slap and raised three fingers: "Kneel down and beg for mercy for me, as long as you cut off your own hand to compensate for the loss, I can spare you from dying!"
Qin Yun's eyes were cold: "What if I don't agree?"
"Don't agree?" The burly giant man sneered: "I can't help you not agree!" When I came to Xiangshuiji, it was the dragon that coiled me, and the tiger that lay down for me, and Lao Tzu had a way to make you beg for death, but not for death!"
Qin Yun suddenly smiled: "Then I really want to see your Thunder Tiger methods, why do you make me beg for death and can't beg for death, do you rely on you Tiger Hall garbage?"
The burly giant man was furious, his eyes flashed with fierce light, his right arm was slowly raised, and all the warriors behind him held down the hilt of their swords and prepared to attack, the atmosphere of saber rattling was suffocating.
Ding! Ding!
At the moment when the battle was about to break out, suddenly a crisp copper bell sounded from behind Qin Yun, accompanied by a low Sanskrit chant, as if it was a spiritual voice from the heavenly realm, which instantly dispelled the tense atmosphere on the long street.
Qin Yun's heart moved, and he couldn't help but turn around and go back.
A group of yellow-robed monks is coming from the other side of the street, the two monks in the lead are holding long flags and shaking copper bells to open the way, and the four monks are carrying a bed with a canopy, only to see a red-robed old monk sitting cross-legged on it, his eyes closed and his expression solemn, dozens of monks holding Buddhist meridians and turning prayer cylinders follow closely.
On the left and right sides of the procession, there are several young novices with beautiful eyebrows carrying bamboo baskets, and from time to time throwing the petals in the baskets on the ground, the pomp and circumstance are jaw-dropping.
The Tiger Hall Gang members who followed Qin Yun showed awe on their faces and retreated, and a few of them even knelt directly on the side of the street, bowing and not daring to look up.
Lei Laohu's face suddenly changed greatly, the muscles on his face twitched a few times, and he gritted his teeth and looked extremely unwilling.
He hesitated for a moment, put down his arm in a dejected manner, glared at Qin Yun viciously and said, "Boy, you are lucky today, let's go!"
Putting down the cruel words, Lei Laohu turned around and left, and the originally imposing Tiger Hall gang also hurriedly followed, and disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye, as if they were afraid that there would be a big disaster if they were late?
What kind of powerful person is this red-robed old monk, who was so scared that Lei Laohu was scared as soon as he appeared?
Qin Yun was very curious in his heart, and he quietly retreated to the side of the street.
The monk's team walked unhurriedly in front of Qin Yun, and he was able to clear the other party's true face.
The monk in the red robe was slender, with an old face, white eyebrows, and a gold-plated Zen staff in front of him, as if it had lost its vitality in clay carving wood sculptures.
What Qin Yun didn't expect was that when he was contemplating the red-robed old monk, the other party suddenly opened his eyes!
Qin Yun's heart shook suddenly, because the other party's eyes had an indescribable majestic aura, so powerful that he couldn't resist at all, as if the whole person was worn in an instant, and all the secrets were revealed in the other party's eyes!
But the next moment, the red-robed old monk's eyes became calm and peaceful, and he no longer had any coercive and deterrent power, he nodded at Qin Yun, and the old face showed a warm smile, becoming extremely cordial and vivid.
Qin Yun suddenly woke up, he suppressed the turbulent waves in his heart, and bowed to the other party.
