Chapter 63: Heavenly Fire City

Bidding farewell to Shen Tianxing, Shen Feng, and Su Qin, Su Huai and his party left the island, in addition to Fang Jin and Baizhiwei, there were also two disciples of Huasheng Island, Zhao Mo and Zhao Ping, when they came to the town by boat from Huasheng Island, it was noon, and the five of them walked in the town Fang Jin and Su Huai chatted and talked about it, looking at the travelers coming and going from all over the world, it was really like coming to catch the market, Baizhiwei walked in the forefront, like a stereotypical appearance of an old-timer, Zhao Mo, Zhao Ping followed not far behind Bai Zhiwei, walking very upright, there are not many rules on Huasheng Island, and Shen Tianxing's rule is not too strict, Su Huai doesn't know when he trained two disciples with such rules, looking at the three of them walking seriously, it is not like traveling, it is more like a landlord who came to collect rent, but along the way, no matter how old or young, there are always people who say hello to the three of Baizhiwei, and it can be seen that these three people seem to come out and walk around often, and they are very familiar with the local people.

"They usually walk like this," Fang Jin pulled La, and Su Huai asked in a low voice.

"I don't know," Su Huai shook his head and said he didn't know.

Out of the town, pedestrians gradually became scarce, the man named Zhao Mo turned around, but the original cold face showed a smile of peace and inquiry, "There are people who come here to buy medicine, there are three sects and nine ranks, and there are all ruffians, and the incarnation island is the master of this party, if you don't suppress it all, then the business here will not be able to be done, and Zhao Jiang and I are responsible for the safety of the town."

Su Huai and Fang Jin showed their original appearance, no wonder since they left Huasheng Island, the three of them seemed to change their faces, and they looked unkind.

"Let's go quickly, go to the post station in front to buy some horses, and rush to Tianhuo City before dark," Zhao Jiang shouted to Su Huai and the three behind him.

Su Huai didn't understand Soma, so he followed behind a few people, but he never thought that Fang Jin, who claimed to have been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for several years, didn't know anything, in short, the one who paid for it was also Baizhiwei, and the two of them just followed.

"Let's go" Bai Zhiwei greeted, and stepped across the horse first, and the four of them also got on the horse one after another, and went all the way.

Tianhuo City is not too far away from Huasheng Island, the city gate can be seen from a distance in the evening, galloping for a long time, the horses are already tired, the five people sit on horseback, the horses slowly move forward, Su Huai looks around is bare, Su Huai has only been to two Yanguo City, this Tianhuo City does not seem to have the prosperity of Chaoyang City, and the city wall is not as thick as Jinyang City, but the soldiers at the city gate are full of energy, and there is a sense of killing invisibly, which makes people afraid and dare not be presumptuous at will.

After a routine inspection, a group of five people went directly into Tianhuo City, the sky was already dark, there were not many pedestrians on the road, and the hawkers had already packed up their things and carried their burdens to go home.

"Find a place to rest first" Bai Zhiwei spoke, but his eyes were looking around, Tianhuo City is close to the border of the Snow Country, and there is constant friction between the Yan Country and the Snow Country, and there are as many as five pharmacies on the Avatar Island in the Tianhuo City, and Bai Zhiwei is also a frequent visitor to Tianhuo City, but he came here in the past, and it was not as depressed as it is today.

The five of them worked hard all the way, they were already tired and exhausted, and they found a nearby inn and went inside, the inn had already lit an oil lamp, although it was not too bright, but it was still clear, the store was a diligent person, and the five people walked to the door and greeted them from afar.

"A few guest officers, please" The shopkeeper's towel was thrown over his shoulder, and the five people were led to sit down in the bright light.

There were no other customers in the store, except for the shopkeeper who led the way, only a middle-aged man was at the counter, and the abacus was crackling.

Before the shopkeeper could open his mouth, Bai Zhiwei asked, "I said little brother, why are you so lonely today."

The shopkeeper glanced at the five of them again before he said, "A few of them are from other places."

Su Huai and the others all nodded, and the shopkeeper continued, "It's not that our store is deserted, but the entire Tianhuo City is deserted, I don't believe you can take a look outside, other inns can't be opened at our hour."

Su Huai and the five nodded again to express their belief, and motioned to the shopkeeper to continue.

The shopkeeper said again, "This is not a secret, just a few months ago, somehow, walking on the street alone, suddenly the whole body is black, vicious and terrifying, kill people when they see them, several soldiers can't stop it, it will appear every few days, sometimes there will be several times a day, no one can tell, no, the government is under martial law, there are officials patrolling during the day, and no one dares to go out at night."

Su Huai was shocked when he heard this, he thought that the Demon God Temple was just in a remote place, doing experiments on the Demon God Seed, but he never thought that there was also a branch hall of the Demon God Temple in a big city like Tianhuo City.

Everyone was still reminiscing about the matter, but they heard the shopkeeper say again, "Originally, this matter was almost calmed down half a month ago, but the wind that blew from nowhere, what antidote and so on, somehow it seems to have something to do with those weirdos who are black all over the body, this is not everyone buying, the price of those drugs is getting higher and higher, and money may not be able to buy them, and then the more and more trouble, the fight between those who buy medicine and those who buy medicine, those who sell medicine and those who sell medicine, and finally even those who buy medicine and those who sell medicine, in short, a lot of people are injured in a mess."

When everyone heard this, their faces became extremely ugly, and they never thought that things would become so bad, "cough cough" Bai Zhiwei coughed and pulled everyone's thoughts back, and said to the shopkeeper, "Thank you, little brother, please give us a few signature dishes, my stomach is hungry."

"Okay" The shopkeeper agreed, said "Wait a minute, guest officer" and ran towards the kitchen.

Eat and drink enough, the five people who were tired for a day all went back to their rooms to rest, Su Huai was still as usual, sitting cross-legged and spitting out the vitality of heaven and earth, practicing one thing like sailing against the current and retreating, for his own martial arts practice, Su Huai is particularly cherished, this sitting is two o'clock in the middle of the night, the internal force in the dantian is already very full, and when the internal force is rich and viscous like water, you can impact the earth-level entrance, Xuan-level to the ground-level, and the internal force is sublimated into true qi.

Su Huai rubbed his eyes and stretched his waist, just lying on the bed with his clothes closed, his eyes slightly closed, not like he was sleeping, but he just closed his eyes and seemed to be waiting for something, but he waited for about two hours, "Knock knock..."There was a knock on the door, Su Huai opened his eyes, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and secretly said in his heart, "Sure enough", he got up and opened the door, just as Su Huai expected, Fang Jin stood outside the door with a faint smile on his face.

Su Huai quipped, "Brother Fang can't change the habit of knocking on the door in the middle of the night."

Pushing the door in, and then carefully closing the door, Fang Jin said, "Brother Su knows that I will come."

Su Huai said, "I naturally know, but you came slowly."

Fang Jin smiled, took out a letter from his arms, and handed it to Su Huai, "Then let's go, I'm ready for you."

Su Huai couldn't help but be stunned when he took the letter, the handwriting on the letter was very similar to his own.

"How, Brother Su is still satisfied," Fang Jin said proudly.

"I never thought you would have such skills," Su Huai said in surprise.

Fang Jin became more and more proud, "To do our business, of course, we have to know everything, otherwise how to hide from the world, it's not that I boast, calligraphy and painting, no matter what everyone's handwriting, I can copy the look, and...".

Su Huai saw that Fang Jin was about to speak loudly again, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "In my opinion, Brother Fang will, as long as he doesn't be the gentleman on the beam, everything is better than now."

Fang Jin pursed his lips and said, "Let's go, wake them up in a while, and they really won't be able to leave."

Su Huai nodded and spread the letter paper in his hand on the table, and then pressed it with a teacup, and then went out with Fang Jin, the two of them tiptoed out of the inn, the street was pitch black, and there was no sound of insects and birds, the inn was not far from the city gate, and it took more than ten minutes for the two to reach the city gate.

Su Huai looked at the tall and slippery city wall, and then looked at the soldiers guarding the door who were all in good spirits, and asked, "Brother Fang, where do we get out from?"

Fang Jin followed Su Huai's eyes and found that Su Huai was observing the city walls everywhere, and said in surprise, "Could it be that you still want to go out from the city gate."

"Then how do you get out" Su Huai had an ignorant expression.

Fang Jin rolled his eyes and said, "This is Tianhuo City, where is Tianhuo City, the border between the Yan Country and the Snow Country, the guards here are so tightly guarded that even a bird can't fly out, don't look at a few guards at the city gate, if there is any wind and grass, dozens of bows and arrows will be fired together, no matter who it is, they will shoot you into a hornet's nest."

Su Huai opened his mouth wide, but it was not as far-reaching as Fang Jin thought, the snow country and the Yan country were already in constant friction, just going out over the wall like this, they would definitely be regarded as a snow country spy, "Then how do we get out" Su Huai asked this question for the second time.

After hearing Su Huai's words, Fang Jin chuckled in his heart, but he had a bad premonition, and asked cautiously: "Your Su family has a great cause in the Yan country, and it is a great force second to none, you can just find an acquaintance with an official position in this Tianhuo City and send us out."

Su Huai thought for a while before he said, "No."

"How could it not be, if there is a war in the Yan Country Snow Country, this day Fire City is the gateway to the Yan Country, there will be no such an important place" Fang Jin's emotions were a little excited.

Su Huai shook his head, "It's really not."

Fang Jin slapped his forehead like a deflated ball, Su Huai looked at Fang Jin's expression but said bitterly, there is really an acquaintance in Fire City this day, that is Su Xiao, the eldest son of the younger generation of the Su family, but if Su Huai wants to ask Su Xiao for help, it is better to explain to Shen Tianxing when he was on Huasheng Island that he does not want to go home and want to go to Chongming Island, Shen Tianxing will send a few more people to take strict care of him, and then send himself back to Chaoyang City with reason and affection along the way, When he arrived in Chaoyang City, he sent himself back to Su Mansion directly, if anyone dared to bully himself and say that he was a waste when he was a child, Su Xiao could directly beat that person, but he was naughty and caused trouble outside, if he was found by Su Xiao first, which time he was not thrown back with a protective collar, and he was in awe and awe of Su Xiao and Su Huai.

"You don't have any other preparations except for asking me to find someone," Su Huai asked tentatively.

"No," Fang Jin also shook his head.

The two looked at each other with a loveless look, blaming themselves for believing in each other too much, and ran out without asking anything, such as today the fire city is not able to get out, even the inn can not go back, can only blow the cold wind in the dark night for a night, find a large family under the eaves, the two leaned against the corner of the wall, Su Huai closed his eyes and said, "This place is still sheltered from the wind and rain, squint for a while, and you have to hurry tomorrow."

Fang Jin looked up at the sky and said, "You sleep, I'll watch for you."

Just when Su Huai's heart was moved and admired, Fang Jin said again, "I have already slept in the inn before looking for you."

Su Huai's gratitude was not yet able to speak, hearing the second half of Fang Jin's words, and then looking at the current environment, he suddenly had a nameless atmosphere, no wonder he waited until four o'clock in the middle of the night Fang Jin came, it turned out that this guy came to call himself after waking up, Su Huai really wanted to call him now.
