"Oh? Shaoxia really has good eyesight, these kinds of runes are the best choice among the low-level runes, I think that the cultivation rate of Shaoxia going back today will definitely improve by leaps and bounds..."Seeing that Tian Jihong suddenly made a big deal of several valuable runes in one go, the boss immediately smiled, and continued to chatter and pat his ass, "These three runes add up to a total of 380 silver coins, I wonder if Shaoxia needs anything else?" ”

"Hmm, you're a bit more expensive, aren't you? It just so happens that I have a little more spare money in my hand, let me take a look at it again..."Tianjihong smoothly pulled two or three inconspicuous gadgets on the side, with the most conspicuous latent talisman that he had never forgotten, into his hand, and then said to the boss: "That's it, plus these things, how about a total of 400 silver coins?" ”

"It's... Shaoxia can't joke like this, the value of the few things you picked up is not low, and the price of my side is also dozens of silver coins, especially this shulker charm is a hot commodity on the current market, and you can't take it out for 100 silver coins alone, Shaoxia, you also know that this shulker charm is usual..."

"Okay, okay, that's verbose. In this way, do you want to sell 500 silver coins? If I can't do it anymore, I'll buy it from another house! Tianjihong hurriedly interrupted when he saw the boss talking about sensitive content. The price increase is actually not his original intention, looking at the boss's posture, it is obvious that there is still room for maneuver, but now that he is still under the surveillance of the next three people, he should get out as soon as possible, and after some investigation, Tian Jihong actually understands that this price is indeed fair, so he doesn't want to worry about it.

"Alas, well... It's also an old man, I've lost to your little brother, this is your thing, hurry up and put it away, if you think it's not bad when you go back, remember to come to my side often in the future. Eventually, after a few short words of bargaining, the boss finally agreed to the price in a compromise.

Tian Jihong, who had received the things, did not rush to make a move, but continued to approach the most densely populated area of the square. Of course, his purpose in doing this is also to confuse the three people in the rear, first, the route he is advancing is contrary to the path out of the square, and the other party will not be on guard and it is easy to take it lightly; Second, it is more convenient to use the sigil in your hand to avoid being discovered when you come to a crowded place, and it is easier to blend in and take the opportunity to get rid of the pursuers behind you.

With the previous experience of rescuing Tong Bo with Wang Qing, he is now quite familiar with using this latent talisman, and when he hid the talisman in his sleeve and slowly injected spiritual power, Tian Jihong's figure shuttling through the crowd suddenly began to become erratic. The shulker itself does not reduce the user's collision size, but it can block the perception of outsiders for a short time. At this time, it happened to be in the middle of a crowded city, even if the followers in the rear focused all their attention on Tianjihong, in such an environment, with that Ouyang Deacon not yet cultivating in the Bone Forging Realm, it was difficult to use his soul sense to lock on to Tianjihong under the latent shadow.

At the moment when he saw the three people behind him who became helpless after suddenly disappearing from his vision, Tian Jihong did not hesitate for a moment and immediately began to move towards the escape route that had already been calculated. Because he hid his target well along the way, the other party obviously hadn't guessed that he had used the sigil to escape at this time, and most likely guessed that he would try to continue to escape in the crowd.

In fact, Tian Jihong quickly moved towards a remote corner with the help of the effect of the shulker talisman, and his goal was not the gate where most people flocked to it, but chose a smoother VIP passage on the side. As the name suggests, this VIP passage is reserved for the use of big people in the Chamber of Commerce, which is convenient for them to enter and exit on weekdays, and its guards are relatively tighter than ordinary passages, but the four major chambers of commerce take turns to send masters to guard here.

It's just that for Tian Jihong's use of the shulker talisman, whether it is the VIP channel in front of him or the ordinary channel on the side, loopholes can still be found. The main reason is naturally that the square is a public area, and the entrance and exit fees are only 5 silver coins. Therefore, even the VIP passage on the side did not have a guardian circle for detecting sigils as in the façade of the Chamber of Commerce.

Since it was the end of the Shen time, it was the moment when the vendors left, and no one would enter the market again, and the guards on both sides inevitably relaxed their vigilance. While the guards were not paying attention, Tianjihong turned into a cloud of lightning and rushed out of the square area, and ran wildly for nearly half a mile without looking back before stopping.

At this time, the effect of the latent talisman in his hand also slowly began to recede, according to Tian Jihong's estimation, the quality of the talisman he purchased was obviously not as good as the one given by Wang Qing at the beginning, and it could only be regarded as a bargain in terms of duration and escape effect, and he was almost noticed by the guards who turned his head when he passed through the square pass in the chaos.

Fortunately, he had no danger all the way or successfully got rid of the pursuers behind him, and the relieved Tianjihong is now in the middle of the crowd in the downtown area of the town, and this whole day in Dongsheng Town's adventure can be regarded as a lot of knowledge, and the purpose of his trip has been achieved, and now it is time to think about the return.

Looking at the familiar tavern that began to gradually light up near dusk, Tian Jihong couldn't help but recall the happy time when he drank here with Bai Qian a few days ago, and couldn't help but feel a little worried about Bai Qian, who was just a friend of Pingshui. I don't know how long the Bai family, as an ancient family, could support under the pressure of many forces such as the Yuzong at that time?

It's a pity that after staying aimlessly in the town for a quarter of an hour, Tian Jihong, who was looking for it, did not find that familiar figure again, so he had to give up and quietly set foot on the way home while the night had not yet fallen. The only thing that satisfied him was that after successfully condensing the soul of a warrior above the dantian, his originally weak and chaotic divine sense had significantly more than doubled.

After dealing with many matters throughout the day, Tian Jihong at this time not only did not feel a little tired, but even clearly felt that he had mobilized his spiritual power and soul power to gather in the fighting soul, and the latter was also feeding his spiritual power and soul consciousness a little bit, so that his attention in the sea of consciousness could remain focused and clear.

"I really didn't expect the effect of this martial soul to be so powerful, no wonder Dad and Master Li both claimed that fighting spirits were one of the core elements of a monk's cultivation. Thinking that this martial soul is only the most ordinary of the first-level souls, I really can't imagine what kind of great power those powerful cultivators with high-level fighting souls can exert! Tian Jihong thought to himself.

"And this [Wraith Soul Technique] is also a rare treasure, according to Nie Qian's description, there are three Wraith Soul Recipes recorded, which is enough to ensure that my soul consciousness can be successfully cultivated to the level of the Bone Forging Realm, and when converted into spiritual power exercises, it is at least comparable to Xuan-level exercises. Now that I have all the things I need for my cultivation, I should immediately start improving my strength when Master and his old man come back. As for the auction in three days, if you have time to participate, you can find some treasures that will improve your actual combat power. ”

When Jihong successfully arrived at the familiar village gate that day, the sunset on the edge of the mountain peak in the west still showed half of his face, and with the cultivation that Jihong had skyrocketed today, the journey to Dongsheng Town no longer needed to take nearly two hours as before. However, at such a point in time when darkness is about to fall, Donglin Village, which should have been in order for everyone to return to their homes on weekdays, is extremely quiet at this time, and there is no curling smoke on the roofs of each house.

The sharp-minded Tian Jihong immediately realized that something must have happened in the village, and he didn't see any scenes of fighting or conflict at the moment. In addition to what I saw on my way home yesterday, Tianjihong and Tianjifei have only experienced such a situation once in the past two years in Donglin Village:

At that time, the village was infested by pirates from the east, and many innocent villagers were reduced to swords, and their wealth was looted. Later, under the leadership of the head of Huai Village, the martial arts hall and the nearby caravan masters, everyone finally worked together to resist the attack from this group of outlaws, and later it was said that it was the master of Shi Yuzong from the east Lingang side who personally went down to encircle and suppress, and finally annihilated all this group of pirates near [Crescent Island], which was dozens of nautical miles away.

And now that such a situation has reappeared, Tian Jihong immediately thought of the sea soul beast that the village chief Huai said yesterday, if there is anything that will endanger the safety of the entire village in recent days, then this sea soul beast must be the most likely, yesterday the village chief Huai also tried to gather everyone to crowdfund and hire the masters in the caravan to come forward to solve it. In this case, it is likely that the beast has once again attacked people.

"Oops, could it be that Xiaofei is a little scarlet him...?!" Thinking of this, Tian Jihong suddenly panicked, and he sent his younger brother to the village chief in the morning to find out the cause of this incident.

Thinking of this, Tian Jihong didn't even have time to stop to catch his breath, so he hurriedly began to search for the whereabouts of everyone in the village. It's just that after walking around the village several times, the huge village is actually empty, and even the children who usually play outside on weekdays have not seen a single one, and the whole village presents a strange silence, which makes the tension in Tianjihong's heart even worse.

Suddenly, as it was gradually approaching the end of the south direction of the village, in a corner outside the village, Tian Jihong finally detected a familiar figure through his soul sense. I saw that the son of the innkeeper Lin was wandering in front of a toppled house with the two of them, as if investigating the wreckage in front of him, and whispering about something.
