Volume 1: Ashes Chapter 159 Sideways
Black night, black market.
The bustling bazaar failed to quench the cold of the winter night.
The wind poured in through the collar and scraped through the skin like a blade, as hard as if it were about to rip off a few pieces of flesh.
Ling Xiao tightened his shirt and spit out a mouthful of white mist.
He had just finished browsing the stall.
The stalls in the black market are the same as those in Linfeng City, and as time goes by, it becomes more and more difficult to pick up, such as today, which is a day of no gain.
However, Ling Xiao was not discouraged.
Anyway, it's a side hustle, and he doesn't plan to make a fortune with it.
And he's recently unearthed new locations to pick up leaks.
That's Huang Song City.
In that bustling city at the foot of the Songshan Sword Sect, there were even two flea markets, which was enough for him to shop for a while.
With his thoughts moving, he walked towards Tingyu Xuan.
That's right, there is also Tingyuxuan in the black market, but the shopkeeper is not Kui Lao, it is probably a branch of Linfeng City.
Ling Xiao came to the black market tonight, not for the elite team to assemble, but for another person.
Step into Tingyuxuan.
At first glance, I was attracted by the back of the woman on the seat next to the patio garden.
Her concave and convex back, against the backdrop of the rain scene in the garden, looks extremely beautiful, like a painting.
In front of her, the tea was cold.
She just looked quietly at the plantain tree that had been beaten by the rain, and at the rain like smoke and mist, splashing on the leaves and drenching the bricks of the garden.
Ling Xiao also looked at her, stopping to admire this beautiful painting.
The guests who listened to Yuxuan, from time to time, also drifted to this woman, admiring the exquisite figure unabashedly.
It's just that no one stepped forward to talk.
It's just that the woman wears an ordinary mask on her face, which hides her appearance.
In the world of cultivating immortals, there are countless back killers, even if a woman with a good figure is, her true face may be ugly, otherwise why wear a mask?
Undisturbed women, the rain in the garden, and the scenery are quiet and peaceful.
Ling Xiao paused, then slowly came to the opposite side of the woman and sat down.
"You've been waiting for a long time, haven't you?" He asked with a smile.
The woman turned her face, her gaze under the mask, flowing with a slight soft color, and said, "Not long." It's good that you've broken through! ”
Her voice is as soft as water, as if it blends with the rain in the garden, and it penetrates into people's hearts.
"yes, broke through the ......"
Ling Xiao exhaled lightly, gestured to Xiao Er in the distance, and then slowly stretched out his hand to hold the woman's soft hand.
"Peach, what were you thinking just now?" He asked.
"I was thinking if I had a whole day and I could be completely like this, not caring about anything, and drinking tea quietly." Hu Taoer whispered.
She looked at the banana trees in the courtyard and listened to the crackling raindrops, and her tone seemed to be dyed with a hint of sadness by the rain.
Ling Xiao didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he had to be silent and looked at the courtyard as well.
yes, that's fine.
He added in his heart.
It's a pity that that kind of dream life has ceased to exist since he stepped into the immortal cultivation realm.
How hard and short life is!
Xiao Er served tea.
Ling Xiao poured the cold cup for Hu Tao'er.
Immediately, the two fell silent again, quietly watching the rain, each with something on their minds.
They had grown accustomed to such sudden silence.
For seven months, the relationship between the two was solid, and neither of them was a person who coveted the pleasures of the flesh, but more often than not, he preferred to sit quietly like this.
Even now, after not seeing each other for many days, they have their own hearts in each other's hearts, but they are coming, and they can't say anything.
It's just that their hands are still clasped together, as if they want to perceive each other's deepest feelings hidden in their hearts through this.
After a long time, Hu Tao'er retracted her gaze, looked at Ling Xiao again, and said with a smile: "I went demon hunting with the ice goose three days ago, and I was lucky enough to kill a steel-armed wild ape. ”
"Oh? That's pretty good! Ling Xiao said with a smile.
The material of the steel arm ape can be very valuable.
"Hu Qi is going to break through recently, maybe one day, he will come in front of me." Hu Tao'er said again, and the eyes of the water under the mask looked at Ling Xiao quietly.
Even if the hood covered her face, she seemed to have to see something.
"I really envy him......"
Ling Xiao held back a sentence for a long time.
"Don't say that in front of him, or he'll think you're mocking him." ”
It's too late for Hu Qi to envy Ling Xiao, which round will Ling Xiao envy Hu Qi?
Ling Xiao was dumbfounded.
"What's next?" Hu Taoer tilted her head slightly, looking at him playfully.
Ling Xiao pondered for a moment, spread his hands and said, "That's it, my life is very monotonous, cultivation and talisman making." ”
She snorted softly, in an unhappy tone, "Without me? ”
Ling Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately clenched her hand tighter, and asked rhetorically, "What do you say?" ”
Hu Taoer pursed her lips and smiled.
Although she couldn't see her face under the mask, Ling Xiao knew that she must have pink cheeks slightly red at this moment, as beautiful as a ripe apple.
"Count you boy with a conscience. Tonight, you belong only to me. She said with a slight playfulness, as if she were a show-off little girl.
But without waiting for the two of them to warm up for a moment, they heard Yuxuan hurriedly walk into a tall and beautiful figure, and after glancing at the lobby, they anxiously ran to the two-person seat.
"Peach, it's not good!" Before Zhao Bingyan could get closer, he said anxiously.
Hu Tao'er stood up suddenly, frowned and asked, "Why is it like burning your buttocks, what's the matter?" ”
Zhao Bingyan grabbed her hand, pulled her out without saying anything, and said, "Somehow, they have a quarrel with the people of the Songshan Sword Sect, you go and take a look!" ”
"What?!"
Hu Tao'er was shocked, and immediately looked at Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao hurriedly got up and said in a deep voice, "Hurry up!" ”
The three of them paid for the tea and hurried out to the other end of the black market.
Running straight to the end of the street, I saw that in front of a stall, two groups of people were facing each other tensely, one was a disciple of the Songshan Sword Sect, and the other was Hu Qi, Shen Fang, and Xiao Pingsheng.
Next to it, there is a large group of people watching the lively loose practice.
Ling Xiao squeezed into the crowd with his two daughters, and just happened to hear Hu Qi say loudly: "This turquoise is clearly what we saw first, why did you intervene?" ”
Turquoise?
The onlookers were shocked.
This is a rarity, but it is a material for creating high-level magic weapons, and it is very valuable!
"Why? Hey...... With our money, with our people. Among the disciples of the Songshan Sword Sect on the opposite side, a yin owl man walked out and sneered.
Seeing this person, the casual cultivators on the street were in an uproar.
Xu Santong!
This famous left protector of the Songshan Sword Sect will actually appear here?
They are never welcome on the black market!
However, Xu Santong looked coldly at the Quartet, and then the powerful coercion of the ninefold peak of qi refining burst out!
Like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, the people in the commotion couldn't help but be silent.
This guy, unless he is a foundation building monk, can't be provoked!
Xu Santong looked at Hu Qi playfully, and said coldly: "With us, we are better than you." Is it enough? ”
Hu Qi and the others were suffocated.
"Not enough."
At this moment, a clear voice suddenly came from the crowd.
People looked in shock, only to see a man in a black robe striding into the room.
