Chapter 32: A Ray of Rising Sun
The pre-dawn darkness finally passed, and a ray of the morning sun tore through the boundless cold night with difficulty;
The brilliant morning sun shone on the white snowfield, and also on the small figure that was galloping, and the boy had not felt that the cold air was so refreshing for a long time!
After more than two hours of running, Leng Yi finally exhausted his body, and at this time he had crossed the boundary of Huangyang County and entered the territory of Zhenxi County, and so far, no signs of anyone being followed have been found;
"Damn the horse! How dare you not let the master ride!"
Leng Yi rubbed his sore knees, and while scolding the horses who only recognized their masters, he wrapped the cloak that he pulled off from Wu Yuan's body and sat under a piece of bluestone;
"But it's okay......"
Leng Yi gnawed on the dry food he had collected, opened the package again, and counted the stack of silver tickets in it again, he never thought that there were more than a dozen horse thieves with more than 2,300 taels of silver on them;
"It is said that horse thieves like to carry their family money with them so that they can run for their lives at any time, and it seems to be true!"
Leng Yi looked at the twenty or so silver tickets with different denominations and some yellowing paper in his hand and nodded slowly, if it weren't for the horse thief's habit, he would have to get so much money, I really don't know when it would be;
"These two should be public funds, keep them for later use;"
Leng Yi took out two brand-new silver tickets from a stack of silver tickets, but the denomination was not large, and stuffed them into his bag;
Finally rich!
Leng Yi put down the silver ticket, couldn't help but sigh, and then raised his head to look at the sun-bathed mountain beam not far away, and over the mountain beam, it was the westernmost town of Xichuan Prefecture, "Zhenxi City"!
But......
Thinking of Zhenxi City, Leng Yi couldn't help frowning, and his mind flashed through what happened in Huangyang City, and he still didn't understand, where did he pretend not to be?
Is it because of that meal?
"Stupid! how can you pretend to be like that with your temperament!" At this moment, the old dragon's cold snort suddenly sounded;
"My ...... Temperament"
Leng Yi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and then quickly figured out the joints:
Indeed, for so many years, he has been honest and aggrieved in front of Lao Long;
Before meeting Lao Long, the identity of a genius in the world was destined for him to have the unique publicity of genius, and this kind of publicity that never bowed his head had already penetrated into the bone marrow and integrated into his words and deeds;
Although his life suddenly changed drastically and after three months of hardship, Leng Yi's obvious flamboyance has been worn away a lot, and he looks like a different person;
However, how can that kind of arrogance in the bones be exhausted in just three months?
Moreover, Leng Yi has never gone out to practice, but according to what is said in the story, he takes it for granted that the lower the identity of the dress, the more no one will pay attention to it;
Although Leng Yi's outfit has deceived many ordinary people;
In the eyes of the city defense who has been mixed with the three religions and nine streams for more than ten years, there is an obvious contrast between the cold and easy demeanor and the dress on the body;
And that meal only made the city defense more certain of their judgment;
Originally...... So!
Leng Yi couldn't help but squint his eyes, he understood that if he didn't solve this problem, this trip would still be full of risks;
And this trip into the city is a matter of importance, and there is no room for any more mistakes......
After some hard thinking, Leng Yi did not enter Zhenxi City directly, but turned a corner and entered a slightly larger village outside the city;
At noon, when Leng Yi stepped out of the village, the whole look was completely new!
Fitted black boots, cropped cloak, long loose hair, and a sheathed steel knife on his back...... Yiqiē's dress is very in line with Leng Yi's current temperament;
Moreover, the thirteen years of longevity consumed last time made Leng Yi's voice not only thicker, but also his skin was much rougher, and with this slightly mature dress, he was a young monk in his twenties;
Now, as long as he doesn't do it, except for the person who watched Leng Yi grow up, it is difficult for others to see the difference between him and ordinary young monks;
The only difference is the size of Leng Yi......
"Well, when you meet someone who laughs at the young master's shortness, you should pretend to be angry and then do it;"
Leng Yi touched his head, carefully speculated and imitated, then took a deep breath, and strode towards Zhenxi City;
Zhenxi City is the west of Huangyang County, the westernmost county town of Xichuan Prefecture, and further west, is the border of the Daqi Dynasty;
Because it is closer to the Western Wilderness than Huangyang County, the vitality of heaven and earth here is thinner, even so thin that it is difficult for even food crops to grow; although it is a barren mountain like Huangyang County, there is not even a single dead tree to be seen here;
However, as the last town before entering the Western Wilderness, Zhenxi City is larger and more lively than Huangyang City, with more monks, and the city defense and maintenance of patrolling back and forth are also higher;
"A person who guards the city gate has a third-level cultivation of quenching, and that Zhang Dong is also a street patrol here;" Glancing at the guards at the city gate from a distance, Leng Yi couldn't help but smack his lips, and then strode over vigilantly;
"Sure enough......"
At the dilapidated city gate, Leng Yi couldn't help but touch his nose when he looked at the wanted warrant on the city wall;
Although the portrait on the wanted notice has not changed, but with the addition of a hat and a coarse cloth short, such a look, such a dress, even Leng Yi himself feels awkward, let alone those old oils with vicious eyes;
"1500 taels! This is really the life of the master!"
Looking at the latest bounty on the wanted warrant, Leng Yi couldn't help but grit his teeth;
As the bounty increases, the bonuses on the road will definitely increase, and even the pursuers will become more vicious!
If it is re-exposed......
Leng Yi's heart couldn't help but tighten even tighter!
But fortunately, Leng Yi stood vigilantly here for a while, except for attracting some eyes because he was too short, no one came to look for trouble;
It seems that there are no vain flowers for these two taels of silver;
Leng Yi nodded secretly in his heart, then took a deep breath, and strode into Zhenxi City under the eyes of a group of city guards at the gate of the city;
With a new dress, a coordinated temperament, and more than two thousand taels of silver tickets thrown out, in the Lingshi shop in Zhenxi City, Leng Yi got the treatment of "uncle" level second only to distinguished guests;
"This man, you go slowly, come back next time!"
In the buddy's nodding and smiling, he nodded coldly and indifferently, and then stepped out of the spirit stone shop;
Alas, the way of this world ......
Thinking of the two times he bought spirit stones, but the treatment was very different, Leng Yi couldn't help but sigh deeply, and a trace of helpless loneliness flashed in his heart;
"Forget it, wait until the master has the ability......"
Leng Yi tightened the package on his back, looked up at the sky to the west, and strode out of the city;
"What a demon!
Just when Leng Yi had just disappeared into the crowd on the road, in a dark alley next to the Lingshi shop, a middle-aged monk with a slender figure, a hat on his head, and a mercenary dress slowly walked out;
"However, if it weren't for Lao Tzu who has seen you a lot since he was a child, he would have been really blinded by you!"
After the monk glanced at the direction in which Leng Yi had disappeared, a sharp light flashed in his indifferent eyes, and then he pressed the hat and shook off his steps to keep up with him;
Just as the monk shook off his steps, a waist card on his waist also swayed, and on the black iron cast waist card, four strong and powerful characters appeared.
Nishikawa Cheng!
