When Zhao Rang returned to Zhenhai City, he was exhausted......

When he decided to go back to the city, he could not have imagined that it would take so long and so much effort that when he saw the city gate from afar, he felt his throat start to itch, and then he coughed violently.

People who are in a hurry are often like this.

Therefore, every dozen miles next to the pipeline, there will be a tea shop to rest and sweat for pedestrians to sweat and quench their thirst.

Zhao Rang came from the mountains and forests, and he couldn't touch those tea sheds.

Otherwise, based on the distance he had traveled from back, he would have to pass through at least three or four!

The violent cough even attracted the attention of the sergeants on duty at the city gates.

Fortunately, Zhao Rang was already a fourth-grade martial cultivator who had cultivated the Great Grandmaster's Law after all, and his control over his own musculoskeletal power was far more comparable.

After a little patience, he held his head high, and walked in without squinting under the intently gaze of the sergeants on both sides.

It's a pity that Zhao Rang couldn't maintain this state for too long.

Counting, these days, he has almost sunrise knives!

I also had a big drink last night......

Although he didn't feel uncomfortable when he vomited at the end, he only felt hearty, but if he thought that if his self-control could be stronger and he couldn't help drinking, wouldn't there be no more of what happened later?

After taking a few more steps, Zhao Rang shook his head and denied himself.

I just thought that, but it's not right!

Since the girl is determined to find trouble for herself, it has nothing to do with whether she drinks or not.

If you don't meet in a tavern, you can meet in a restaurant.

Anyway, as long as she wants.

A young, beautiful, and lively girl will have 10,000 ways to meet a young man.

And she can also guarantee that she can do these 10,000 ways, each of which can be completely successful!

Thinking of this, Zhao Rang couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, and said to himself:

"I really shouldn't have drunk last night......"

If he had expected it to be true, the tavern would have been the first thing the girl had ever used.

As the saying goes, there are only three things, but I didn't even stick to the second one, which is tantamount to a great shame......

But Zhao Rang thought about it on the other hand, if the other party really prepared many methods, but the first one worked, wouldn't it be very boring for her?

Moreover......

Zhao Rang didn't ridicule anymore.

Even in the heart.

The dead are greater, whether they are friends or enemies.

Those who survive, whether it is their own efforts or God's gifts, must cherish every hard-won hour after that.

Entering the city again this time, Zhao Rang suddenly found that he had a sense of direction in the city.

The inn he was most familiar with in the city.

The inn is the property of Mrs. Liu, but now Mrs. Liu has exchanged all her belongings for silver and left here completely in a carriage.

It stands to reason that this inn should also belong to Lan Shizi.

If so, then the baggage he left in the inn should be well placed.

As soon as he walked into the long street where the inn was located, Zhao Rang saw a middle-aged man standing at the door of the inn nodding and soliciting business.

It stands to reason that it is already a time-honored brand in Zhenhai City, and the reputation that everyone has passed down is much more useful than soliciting customers on the street.

When I got closer, I realized that he not only knew the solicitor, but also knew him very well!

It was the owner of the shop where he ate the bowl of seafood noodles when he first arrived in the city a few days ago.

"Guest! You ......"

The stall owner had a pair of eyes, and obviously recognized Zhao Rang.

"Guest officer, do you stay there?"

The stall owner's tone immediately lowered by half a cut, and asked timidly.

Zhao Rang looked at him curiously, then at the inn behind him, and asked:

"How do you ......"

Without waiting for Zhao Rang to finish asking, the stall owner hurriedly interrupted, and then said:

"Say it inside, say it ...... inside"

The hall of the inn was empty, as lively as before.

Sunlight was cast through the windows of the promenade on the second floor, and a layer of dust could be seen in the entire air.

"The little one is doing things here now!"

The stall owner barely smiled.

Zhao Rang couldn't understand the meaning of his words for a while, and thought that the stall owner was running from time to time and his fortune was prosperous, so he took down this inn.

"Congratulations, boss, this is a fortune! You can treat me to a bowl of seafood noodles and more fresh shrimp! ”

Hearing the words "seafood noodles", the stall owner's face froze.

Then the whole person seemed to be emptied of three souls and seven spirits, and walked to an empty table and chair in a daze, used his sleeve as a rag, wiped the tabletop, and blew heavily on the chair.

The dust kicked up in his face, but he didn't seem to feel anything.

Zhao Rangxunsi didn't say anything, why did he become like this in an instant?

However, people's kindness could not be wasted, so they sat down generously.

The boss didn't care about etiquette, held his hands, and sat next to Zhao Rang.

After a long silence, he spoke:

"Guest officer, I haven't eaten the seafood noodles."

Then he added:

"I don't have anything to eat anymore."

As he spoke, two lines of turbid tears burst out of his eyes, dripping onto the table, and soon gathered into a small pool.

The boss's tears kept rolling down his eyes like beads with broken threads.

His face, which always had a sincere smile on weekdays, was now full of gloom and misery, as if all hopes had been shattered by the cruel reality.

Zhao Rang looked at the boss, and his heart was also mixed.

Although he is not a sentimental person, he is also infected by the boss's emotions at the moment, and he feels heavy in his heart.

"What the hell is going on?"

Zhao Rang asked softly.

He knew that at this time, any words of comfort would pale in comparison, but he still wanted to know what was really going on.

The boss wiped his tears with his sleeve, choked up and said:

"Guest officer, do you remember my seafood noodles? It's an ancestral craft in my family, and it's been done since my grandfather's generation. After my wife stayed with me, she also learned to make seafood noodles with me. Our husband and wife relied on this small shop, and although we didn't make a lot of money, we were okay. But, it's ......."

Speaking of this, the boss's emotions became excited again, and tears welled up in his eyes again.

Zhao Rang's heart tightened.

The next words must have been cruel, but he listened quietly.

"But not long ago, my wife suddenly told me that she was tired of this life and wanted to pursue a better life. I didn't think much of it at the time, I just thought she was just talking. But who knows, she is really tired of it. She ran away with a rich man, and even took our store with her. I have nothing left now, just this garment and this old bone. ”

The boss said, wiping his tears with his sleeve, as if he wanted to wipe away the humiliation and pain in his heart.

Zhao Rang listened to the boss's words, and he also sighed in his heart.

"And what do you do now?"

The boss smiled bitterly and said:

"What else can I do? I can only be a running buddy here. I can eat a lot of food, so I won't starve to death. ”

Zhao Rang looked at the boss's face full of vicissitudes and helplessness, and he also felt a burst of emotion in his heart.

He used to think that the owner was a happy man, with his own small shop and a happy family.

Now it seems that happiness is really too fragile and can be shattered if you are not careful.

"And what are your plans for the future?" Zhao Rang asked again.

The boss was silent for a moment, then said slowly:

"I don't know. I want to live the present day now, and as for the future, I will talk about it later. ”

Zhao Rang nodded, and didn't say any more comforting words, because these words didn't really help the boss.

"Do you still make seafood noodles?"

Zhao Rang asked suddenly.

The boss was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly:

"Yes, how not? That's my family's ancestral craft, even if my wife runs away with someone, this craft can't run. ”

When Zhao Rang heard this, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.

"Do you want to make a comeback?"

The boss smiled wryly and shook his head.

"Guest, don't make fun of me. I am like this, where is the capital to make a comeback? ”

Zhao Rang disagreed.

"The capital is earned by people, as long as you have the craft, are you afraid that you won't be able to earn the capital?"

When the boss heard this, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, but it soon dimmed again.

"Guest, you speak lightly. But now that I have nothing, where can I earn any money? ”

Zhao Rang looked at the boss's sad face, but he already had a plan in his heart.

"You say you have nothing now, but you don't really have nothing."

Zhao Rang said slowly.

"You still have a good craft, this is your capital."

"Do I really have a chance to make a comeback?"

"Of course there is a chance! I can help you too. ”

Zhao Rang shrugged his shoulders and said lightly.

When the boss heard this, he said excitedly:

"Guest, you ...... Are you really willing to help me? ”

Zhao Rang nodded and said:

"But this time we're going to do bigger and better. Man, don't steam steamed buns to fight for breath! You're going to have to show the people who ran away, right? ”

"In this way, tomorrow I will have a treat here, and I will eat seafood noodles, and you will bring out your best level."

After that, Zhao Rang returned to his room, took out a silver ticket from his baggage, and handed it to the boss.

"Of course, there have to be some other dishes besides noodles. As for whether you go to buy it or do it yourself, I don't care. I just have two requirements, the first is delicious, and the second is fresh! ”

The boss nodded busily.

Zhao Rang is the only light in his bleak life at this moment.

If he can't seize such an opportunity, he deserves to be unlucky for the rest of his life!

Zhao Rang did not stay in the inn.

After explaining a few more words to the boss, the figure moved, like a weathered shadow, and rushed out of the door.

When Zhao Rang stepped into the bamboo forest in the west of the city, the setting sun had already sprinkled its last afterglow, dyeing this quiet bamboo forest with a layer of golden yellow.

He walked on the forest path, accompanied by the rustling of bamboo leaves under his feet, and felt the unique silence and mystery of the bamboo forest.

Although he didn't know what he would meet, Zhao Rang was fully prepared.

He has always been a resolute and calm man.

After walking for about a cup of tea, Zhao Rang suddenly heard a faint noise.

Zhao Rang immediately stopped, his eyes sharpening and looking around, trying to capture the source of the sound.

At this moment, a white figure flashed out from the bamboo forest next to him.

Zhao Rang took a closer look and found that it was a young and beautiful woman.

She was dressed in white and dressed in Shengxue, her face was delicate and vulgar, and her eyes were full of coldness. The posture is graceful, like a fairy descending to earth.

"You're finally here."

The woman said coldly, her voice was like a cold winter wind, revealing a fierce aura.

Zhao Rang looked at the mysterious woman in front of him, and couldn't help but be a little curious.

He had never seen such a cold and heroic woman.

Every look and every action reveals an aura that should not be underestimated.

"I thought you wouldn't come. After all, judging by the note you left in my baggage, you are a girl who is easily shy! ”

Zhao Rang smiled indifferently and said teasingly, trying to ease the atmosphere.

At this time, if you also put on a cold appearance, it will only make things more tricky.

When the woman heard this, a trace of anger flashed in her eyes, but she did not attack, but said coldly:

"Hmph, sharp teeth! But none of that matters. The important thing is that you have now fallen into my hands, and if you want to live, you will obediently obey. ”

As she spoke, she stretched out a slender jade-like palm and grabbed it towards Zhao Rang.

Her movements were light and swift, like a predatory wild cat, and she came to Zhao Rang in an instant.

Zhao Rang is not such an easy person to be restrained.

He smiled slightly, unhurriedly stretched out a hand, and gently grasped the woman's wrist.

The movements may seem gentle, but they imply a powerful force.

The woman only felt as if her wrist was caught in iron tongs, and she couldn't move.

Shocked!

There was a look of horror and pain on his face!

She didn't expect that this seemingly weak young man would have such a strong strength.

Zhao Rang twisted it hard, and twisted the woman's arm behind her back.

He didn't make a heavy hand, but just used a kind of skill to make the woman temporarily lose the ability to resist.

"Ahh

The woman screamed in pain, a hint of horror flashing in her eyes.

She had never met someone who was so lightweight to her since she was a child, and she was shocked and puzzled.

Zhao Rang smiled slightly and let go of his hand.

You already have the upper hand, so there is no need to do anything to the other party.

As a measured man, he doesn't like pointless fights.

However, looking at the beautiful and cold woman in front of me, I couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

This world is really full of wonders, I would meet such a strange woman here.

"Girl, we have no grudges and no hatred, why do we have to make a move when we meet for the first time?"

Zhao Rang asked.

The woman rubbed her wrists, glared at Zhao Rang, a trace of hatred flashed in her eyes, and said through gritted teeth:

"Don't pretend to be garlic! I know who you are! You're the one who killed my brother! ”

Zhao Rang was stunned when he heard this, and then understood.

It turned out that this girl was Boss Hu's sister, and she mistakenly thought that she had killed her brother .......

Zhao Rang shook his head with a wry smile and said:

"Girl, you misunderstood. I didn't kill your brother. ”

"You're lying!"

The woman roared.

"Someone saw you kill my brother! Do you still want to deny it? ”

A trace of grief and hatred flashed in her eyes, as if she wanted to devour Zhao Rang alive.

Zhao Rang looked at the woman's sad and angry appearance, and couldn't help but feel some sympathy in his heart.

He knew how unbearable the pain of losing a loved one was, but he also knew he had done nothing wrong.

Zhao Rang took a deep breath and patiently explained:

"Girl, please listen to me. I really didn't kill your brother. I'm also looking into this matter, so if you want to, you can join me. ”

After listening to Zhao Rang's words, the woman gradually calmed down.

You can't lose your mind because of momentary grief and indignation.

However, she still stared at Zhao Rang's eyes, trying to find a flaw in his eyes.

However, she was disappointed...... Zhao Rang's eyes were always firm and calm, without the slightest weakness and evasion.

She thought to herself that this man was not only strong, but also thoughtful and articulate, and it was not easy to get the truth out of his mouth.

But she had no intention of giving up.

If his brother was really killed by Zhao Rang, then he must avenge his brother!

So she met Zhao Rang's gaze and said word by word:

"Well, I'll trust you once! But if you check yours, I will check mine, and I will not be with you! When we need to meet, I'll look for you! But the ugly words come ahead, and in the end, if I find out that you lied to me, I will never let you die! ”

Zhao Rang looked at the woman's resolute appearance, and couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

I'm afraid this misunderstanding will not be explained clearly for a while.

After saying that, the woman turned around and left, and soon disappeared into the depths of the bamboo forest.

Zhao Rang looked at the back of the woman leaving, and he was also relieved.

But he knew it was far from over...... If this misunderstanding is not completely solved, in addition to this woman, it is estimated that many people will come to find trouble for themselves one after another.
