There is a stone chamber in the middle of the Dry Vine Cave.

"Damn, I didn't find the body of this kid. Ji Qianlu said angrily, "Could it be that you can still survive this time?"

There seemed to be a figure in the darkness of the stone chamber, but there was no response.

............

Very few guests pay their bills before eating, and there are only two extremes of what they do, the rich and the not.

Obviously, the young man in front of him was a rich man, but he spoke very sincerely: "Boss, I just have so much money on me, you can just watch and serve me some food, just pad your stomach." ”

It is said that this little bit of broken silver, in normal times, three steamed buns and a pot of ordinary green tea can cope with the visitor, however, what Wei Lao served to this young man was a bowl of rice, a plate of green vegetables, a plate of white chopped chicken, and a pot of Xijiang Maojian.

The young man is not stupid, when Wei Lao put a large plate of things in front of him, he showed a questioning look, and was about to open his mouth to ask, but was interrupted by Wei Lao, "You're welcome, when everyone has difficulties in walking the rivers and lakes, please use it slowly." ”

When the young man heard this, he couldn't help but be moved by Wei Lao's kindness, and hugged his fists in thanks.

At the moment when the young man stepped into the fence, Wei Lao had already seen that the young man was tired and hungry, the young man was innocent in his eyes, and the purple jade sword in his hand was particularly dazzling in the sun.

However, in the case of a cup of tea, the young man had finished eating, and the peasant dishes in the mountains and fields were another delicacy, and Wei Lao, who was almost busy, was also taking care of the table next to the young man at this time.

After the young man hesitated for a while, he asked, "Boss, I don't know where this place is, how far away is it from Jianglin Town?"

When Wei Lao heard the young man's words, he also stopped what he was doing, put on a smiling face, and came over enthusiastically, "Yo, it seems that the little brother is not a local, this is Pingjiangyuan, Jianglin Town is still some distance from us, about twenty miles, if the little brother is faster, he should be able to reach the town before sunset." ”

The young man was Jiang Yichen, who woke up early in the morning, and when he saw the direction of Wei Lao's finger at this time, it was the west, and he was shocked, taking this place as twenty miles away from Jianglin Town, it was far from where the withered vine cave was located, how could he have thought that after falling into the underground dark river, he would be taken out of such a distance with the current.

"Little brother is lost, or separated from his companions? The little old man is very familiar with this area, if there is anything you don't understand, I can draw you a sketch, and you won't go bad." Although Jiang Yichen remained silent, there was still a hint of surprise between his eyebrows, this detail obviously couldn't escape Wei Lao's eyes, so he was already eight points sure that this young man's situation was not bad as he expected.

"Oh, thank you boss, Xiao Keben and his companions made an appointment to go to Shudi, just passing through Xijiang County, how do you know that the Xijiang Road is not very peaceful, there are robbers infested, we are several people to fight invincible, fortunately, the foot is not bad, split up and fled, I fled here. We had greeted us beforehand, and if we were separated, we would meet at the town of Jianglin. Jiang Yichen said.

"Little brother, don't really say it, the strange incident in Xijiang County has been boiling recently, and people are panicking, and some capable people guess that most of this strange thing is done by robbers, but it is done quietly, so it can still be hidden. Little brother, you can escape this time, it's really amazing, heroes out of teenagers, heroes out of teenagers, hehe!" Wei Lao gave a thumbs up and praised the young man in front of him.

The movement of the conversation between the two also attracted several unfamiliar eyes in the tea shop.

"Boss, don't laugh, I think that what I have encountered is only ordinary robbers, otherwise my martial arts are mediocre, even if I can escape, I will not be safe and sound." Jiang Yichen seemed to be aware of it, and quickly corrected, before he spoke, those few eyes had been withdrawn, and only a few people pricked up their ears to listen carefully.

Hearing this, Wei Lao took a serious look at Jiang Yichen again, Jiang Yichen was not wearing a night suit, and it should be difficult for ordinary people to find anything unusual in his condition now.

Sure enough, except for the fact that the placket on Jiang Yichen's left arm was slightly damaged, and a little faded cherry blossom, what could be seen on the clothes was only ordinary folds, and there was nothing unusual.

"The little brother's luck is not bad, he can avoid it, it's good to avoid it, anyway, the little brother can still talk and laugh now, it's a good thing, it's a good thing, hehe. ”

"Thank you boss Jiyan, and thank you boss for your hospitality, it's not early, time is running out, it's time to set off, so as not to make my companions wait too much. Jiang Yichen got up and wanted to leave.

"What the little brother said is, the little old man will draw a simple picture for you. Wei Lao said, poured out the pot on the table and still had a little tea left on the Xijiang Maojian, and used his index finger to paint on the table with water, "Look, this piece is Pingjiangyuan, walk here from this road, bypass this Qiwuling, and then walk about three or four miles to the southwest to Qiyan Lake, and then go here from Qiyan Lake, and you will arrive at Jianglin Town." ”

Jiang Yichen listened very carefully, and also understood the direction of the road pointed by Wei Lao, but there was only a trace of doubt.

When Wei Lao was drawing, he said that when he bypassed Qiwuling, he drew three times with his fingers on the table, and the rest of the regions were all drawn at one time, could it be that there was another deep meaning in it?

Is it to warn yourself that there are forces here, but it is inconvenient to say that you must bypass this Qiwuling by yourself?

Jiang Yichen stared at the circle "Qiwuling" in the "painting", as if he had an understanding, raised his eyes to look at Wei Lao, and saw Wei Lao nodding with a smile.

Out of gratitude and politeness, Jiang Yichen smiled in return, then hugged his fists and thanked Wei Lao again, then picked up his sword and left.

Da-da-da, da-da-da!

A black horse roared with billowing smoke and dust.

"Boss, come to Santan Aged Xiangquan, ten plates of beef, come up quickly!" The thick and rugged voice came from a bald and bearded man riding a black horse and wearing a black robe embroidered with gold and dragons.

"Well, you can pick a seat by yourself, wait a while, and the little old man will go and prepare. Although this person was still outside the fence, Wei Lao didn't dare to slack off at all, and hurriedly shouted.

"This pickled weather is so sad. The big man walked into the fence while riding his horse, muttering, and happened to meet Jiang Yichen who was leaving.

Jiang Yichen only felt that this face was familiar, but in his impression, he had indeed never seen this person, so he didn't pay attention to it, and walked straight out of the tea shop.

Just as Jiang Yichen was more than ten steps away from the tea shop, he only heard a "whoosh" sound, and there seemed to be a flying object behind him.

Jiang Yichen hurriedly activated the Frost Snow True Qi Protective Body, and then the back of his head was hit hard by a stone.

The speed of the stone was far faster than Jiang Yichen expected, and it also caught him off guard, although there was no blood in the back of his head, but his brain was already buzzing.

Is that the big man?!

Attacked by this sneak attack, Jiang Yichen was already unstable on his feet, but he still pulled out the purple jade dragon scale sword, because the sound of breaking the sky behind him had arrived.

only listened to the four sounds of "poof, poof, poof, bang," Jiang Yichen was already spilling blood from his mouth, and his hands were covering his chest.

That sound was a sword and axe strike, the second sound was the same sword and another axe striking, the third sound was the tip of the sword falling to the ground, and the fourth sound was Jiang Yichen's whole person flying upside down and falling to the ground.

The body of the black-robed man is stronger than that of a cow, and the two gold-patterned giant axes in his hands are a little larger than his head, shining with the brilliance of greed under the scorching sun, whether it is hungry or thirsty, it wants to drink blood to quench thirst and quench hunger.

The movement outside the fence naturally attracted the attention of most of the people in the tea shop, and Wei Lao, who was kind to Jiang Yichen, frowned and turned his face away, while the rest of the people were dumbfounded, one by one, unable to move or make a sound.

"If it weren't for this sword, you would have been the soul of my sun-blazing axe. The black-robed man praised, obviously he was praising the Purple Jade Dragon Scale Sword, not Jiang Yichen.

Jiang Yichen secretly breathed his injuries and couldn't talk, and finally remembered who the black-robed man was, although he hadn't met a real person before, he had seen his portrait, the "Xijiang Bully - Angry Thunderbolt" posted on the bulletin board of the Xijiang County Government!

"Hey, you don't need to cry and mourn, Lao Tzu won't want your life for the time being, you squint and sleep well, and after I've eaten a full meal, I'll take you to a place to have a good time, haha!" Thunderbolt laughed loudly, stepped forward, and knocked Jiang Yichen unconscious with the back of his axe.

Jiang Yichen was furious, but he was powerless to fight against the hard thing, and the moment his unwilling eyes closed, he caught a glimpse of a white shadow floating out in the direction of the tea shop.
