Chapter 128 Sword Rivers and Lakes: Cuishan City

Cuishan City, a lonely city in the northwest Arctic, is a small city with a radius of only dozens of miles and a population of no more than 1,000 people. Watermark Ad Test Watermark Ad Test

The gate of the castle is not guarded, only a city wall covered with ice and snow all the year round, and a small gateway, and there is not even a city gate here.

On the top of the doorway, everyone can see through the thick ice layer and vaguely see the two big characters "Kunshan".

Entering the city, it is also a plate of white, the streets are empty, the houses on both sides of the street are covered with ice and snow, the doors of every house are closed, you can't see the slightest bit of people, you don't know will think that this is an empty city.

In the city of Cuishan, Yeluqi took Zhang Peng and a few people to the Cuishan Inn at the end of the street, which is also the only inn in the city.

From the outside, the inn looks like a two-story building made of stone and wood. It's just that the outer wall of this inn is still covered with a thick layer of ice and snow.

I'm afraid that only a crumbling plaque hanging on the outer wall can prove the identity of this place. The handwriting on the plaque has been polished, but the words "Kunshan Inn" can be vaguely seen.

"How does this place feel like an empty city!Are you sure there are still people alive here?" said Zheng Yingjun, looking around at the empty streets around him, full of doubt.

"Don't be deceived by this appearance, this is indeed Kunshan City, but it is covered with ice and snow all year round, and it looks like this all year round, Lu Daxia, you just need to get used to it!" said Yeluqi with a laugh.

As Yeluqi spoke, the breath from his mouth fell on the leather scarf around his neck, and instantly formed ice crystals.

Yeluqi walked to the closed door of the inn and stretched out his palm to slap the closed wooden door of the inn vigorously.

"Bang Bang!"

With Jeruqi's hurried knock on the door, the wooden door opened, and a man covered in fur poked out half of his head and looked at Jeluqi suspiciously.

"Look at the, you can't do business!" shouted Yeluqi.

When the guy heard Yeluqi's words, he didn't dare to talk back, turned around and opened the wooden door, and Yeluqi took Zhang Peng and the three of them and the remaining four Huoyunwei into the inn.

After a few people entered, the man quickly closed the wooden door again to prevent the wind and snow from flying in.

As soon as Zhang Peng and the others entered the inn, they suddenly felt a burst of warmth, and they felt indescribably comfortable.

The hall inside the inn is not very large, that is, twenty meters square, and there are several stoves around it to maintain the temperature in the house, and in the hall, there are several torches for lighting. Because the inn door was closed and there were no windows, the light inside was very dim.

It is precisely because the inn is so tightly sealed that there is always a faint smell of soot in the air. The torches and stoves fill the inn with smoke, but it feels a bit smoky.

In the hall, there are a lot of tables and chairs, and at this moment, in the inn, there are several groups of people sitting in groups, some are drinking and chatting, and some are holding hot noodle soup and eating in a big gulp. These people are all dressed in thick clothes to keep warm, and on the table at hand, there are also some swords placed at random, presumably from the rivers and lakes.

Together, there were twenty or thirty of them, each eating and talking, and for a while, it was quite noisy, and the strange thing was that these noisy sounds could not be heard at all outside, which showed how thick the walls here were.

"There are so many people here, and it must be two worlds from the outside!" Zhang Peng sighed.

At this moment, the guy who opened the door just now walked forward and said to Zhang Peng and the others: "A few masters, it's warm inside, please inside!"

After that, he took the group to the two tables next to the stove by the wall, and the guy picked up the rag on his shoulder and wiped the table, while beckoning Zhang Peng and the others to sit down.

Zhang Peng, Zheng Yingjun and Zhang Jie sat at a table. And Yeluqi sat at the other table with four Huoyun Guards.

"How many masters, what are you going to eat?" the guy asked politely while standing in the middle.

Yeluqi shouted: "Bring up all the good wine and meat, and hurry up and give us a few stews on these two tables, uncle, I'm very cold!"

"Yes, yes, sit down for a while, I'll go and prepare!"

The man turned to leave.

"Wait!" Zhang Peng said suddenly.

The guy stopped, turned his head, looked at Zhang Peng suspiciously, and asked, "This master, what else do you have to order?"

"Go and call your shopkeeper, I'm going to ask about something!"

Zhang Peng said, and took out a silver ingot casually and threw it to the buddy.

The man took the silver, was stunned for a moment, and then a flash of joy quickly welled up on his face, and he nodded and happily agreed.

"People die for money, birds die for food! It's the same everywhere you go!" Zheng Yingjun said with a smile.

And after Yeluqi saw Zhang Peng's actions, his brows furrowed inadvertently, and then he whispered a few words to Huo Yunwei beside him, and then regained his indifferent expression.

On a table next to Zhang Peng and the others, there were six big men, and at their feet, there were several bamboo baskets, as for what the bamboo baskets contained, it was unknown.

"Big brother, do you think we can get a vote this time?" one of the big men took a sip of wine, and then asked.

"Shh

The black-faced man, known as Big Brother, made a silent gesture and then slapped the questioner on the head.

"Are you stupid?" the black-faced man lowered his voice and scolded, "If you want to die so loudly, can't you?" Let me tell you, the treasure map of Yunxue City was stolen this time, and I don't know how many heroes have come to this Northwest Pole region when they hear the news, and the purpose is not to get a vote! I heard that the treasure is buried with countless gold, silver and jewelry, let's not be greedy, as long as we fill these six bamboo baskets, we can be prosperous and rich, and live for a long time! hehe..."

The black-faced man said as he rubbed his palms from time to time, as if he had seen countless gold and silver in front of him.

"Big brother, there are a lot of heroes from all walks of life who have heard the wind this time, let's not steal chickens and rice!" another man answered.

"That's it, big brother, after all, it's also a thing of Cloud Snow City! It's not like we can move if we say it!" said another man with a hint of worry on his face.

"Damn, fart!" the black-faced man scolded, "Since ancient times, wealth has been sought in danger! You know a fart! Could it be that you still want to be a dart master for the rest of your life?"

..。

A few people, you say a word, I say a word, although I deliberately lowered my voice, how can I avoid the ears of Zhang Peng and a few people.

Zheng Yingjun glanced at Zhang Peng suspiciously, and said in a low voice: "It seems that there are many people who know about this?"

"I don't understand!" Zhang Jie said suddenly.

"Don't understand what?" asked Jung Young-jun.

"I don't understand, why this kind of thing, Yun Xuecheng didn't seal the news, but there was a faint feeling that he was deliberately letting out the wind!"

Zhang Jie's words are exactly what Zhang Peng is puzzled about.

Zhang Peng pretended to think for a while, then lowered his voice and said: "I think there are a lot of strange things about the theft of Cloud Snow City this time! First of all, the masters in Cloud Snow City are like clouds, and it is unbelievable that someone will enter the six-fold iron gate and retreat. Moreover, after the theft, Yunxue City not only did not cover up this kind of ugly thing, but also had the intention of letting the whole world know! Even the treasure map that was lost, and the location of the treasure in the Northwest Pole This kind of secret can be known to outsiders, which is really too weird!"

"Could it be that someone did this on purpose, just to make a big deal out of it?" Zheng Yingjun guessed.

Zhang Peng looked at Zheng Yingjun, smiled, and then his expression slowly became serious, and he said word by word: "Brother Zheng, if someone really wants to do it on purpose, and it is so successful, then we will be in danger!"

Zheng Yingjun frowned, as if thinking about Zhang Peng's words.

Zhang Jie picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and then said lightly: "The matter of Yunxue City is the matter of Zejun! Do you think that with Zejun's personality and strength, he will make himself want to make a big deal out of it?"

"Shhh

"You mean to say if this is done on purpose

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Nine times out of ten, then this person is the city lord of Cloud Snow City, Zejun?"

Zhang Peng and Zhang Jie nodded in unison.

"Then what is his purpose in doing this?" Zheng Yingjun rubbed his fat palms, puzzled.

Zhang Peng shook his head slowly, and said softly: "The easiest to see purpose is to make this matter known all over the world!

"How?" asked Zheng Yingjun urgently. And Zhang Jie also flashed and looked at Zhang Peng.

"If it is not bad, the news of our agreement with Yun Xuecheng to chase the murderer for him in exchange for the desert post will soon spread all over the rivers and lakes!"

Zhang Peng's words made Zhang Jie frown, and said: "Then think of a few months ago, we had a big battle with the five major forces in the Allure Pavilion, then this intention seems obvious!"

Zheng Yingjun stuffed a peanut into his mouth, and said while thinking: "In other words, Zejun deliberately made this matter bigger, the purpose is to attract the attention of people from all walks of life in the rivers and lakes, and then let the heroes from all walks of life in the rivers and lakes gather in the Northwest Pole!

Zhang Jie continued: "Yes, in the final analysis, Zejun is deliberately causing trouble for us, and also let the agreement between us and Yunxue City spread all over the rivers and lakes, when the time comes, we can't complete the agreement, capture the thief alive, and get back the treasure map, then this desert worship post will naturally not be given to us! Naturally, this desert worship post can't be obtained, according to the agreement on the Allure Pavilion, after we return to the Central Plains, the Burial Sword Tower will not be able to justifiably become a first-class force in the rivers and lakes!"

"Damn!" Zheng Yingjun scolded, "It turns out that this group of people is in a group!"

Zheng Yingjun's shouting alarmed the people around him, and Yeluqi frowned and said to Zhang Peng: "Master Zhang, what made Zheng Daxia so angry?"

Zhang Peng smiled and raised his glass and said, "Oh, it's nothing, it's just that Brother Zheng is just careful!"

Yeluqi nodded in disbelief, and did not dwell further on this issue.

Zhang Peng stretched out his hand and patted Zheng Yingjun's hand, and said in a low voice: "Brother Zheng, don't worry, this matter is still our speculation, and everything will be clear soon!"

Zhang Jie nodded and said, "Maybe we think too much, maybe this matter is far from being as simple as we think! What kind of strength is Cloud Snow City? I don't really believe that they will be willing to be human lackeys for the sake of Luoxia Valley and Flying Emperor Castle! They must have their own intentions! Zejun is an old and spicy person, we must not underestimate him!"

Zheng Yingjun also nodded resentfully, and then poured a bowl of wine into his stomach.

At this time, the guy walked towards Zhang Peng and the others with a bowl of steaming stew, and put it on the table of Zhang Peng and the others.

"Whoosh!"

There was a light sound, and then I saw a black shadow slashing through the air, stabbing straight at Zhang Peng and the others.

"Smack!"

Just when Zheng Yingjun's chopsticks just picked up a piece of fat meat, a chopstick knocked off the meat on Zheng Yingjun's chopsticks at once, and also deeply stabbed into the table in front of Zheng Yingjun.

The chopsticks were directly submerged into the table for more than three inches, and it was this chopstick that cut through the air just now.

"Whoosh!whoosh!" sounded two times in succession, and the two chopsticks turned into two meteors, facing Zheng Yingjun.

"Poof!"

There was a light sound, and I saw a flash of golden light, and the two chopsticks were cut off in unison, and they lost their strength in an instant and fell to the ground one after another.

"Look for death!"

Zheng Yingjun withdrew the golden knife, and on his slowly raised face, a pair of murderous eyes were staring at a table ten steps away from them.

At this moment, next to that table was sitting a mysterious swordsman in a black robe, wearing a black gauze hat, and his face could not be seen clearly!

The reason why he is called a swordsman is because on the table in front of him, a three-foot long sword is placed there safely!
