Volume 3, Chapter 22: The Ghost-Faced Thief (2)
The word said: Coming from the city of mist and mystery, who is the Child-eating Demon? If you want to know the mystery, you must go to Jizhou to find out.
There were four soldiers guarding the city standing at the gate of the city, there were three hawker stalls around the soldiers, the ghost-faced man actually carried the child into the city in front of the public, Qin Feng observed that the expressions of the soldiers guarding the city and the hawkers were not abnormal, it seemed that they were not aware of the ghost-faced man this time.
"Strange, why can the four of us easily find the ghost-faced man, but the soldiers can't find him?" Qin Feng muttered to himself as he bit his fingers.
Looking at the middle-aged woman's heart-rending and painful expression, the four of them suddenly felt very unhappy in their hearts when they failed to help her in time.
"The ghost-faced man should still be in the city now, if he enters the city to search for him, there may be a glimmer of life." Zhengqing looked at the middle-aged woman and explained.
"Brother Tang, don't be reckless, what if that ghost-faced man is Takeo pretending to trick us into entering the city?" Qin Feng thought about it and felt that it was very inappropriate to enter the city.
Zhengqing calmed down and thought about it, what he said also made some sense, now is the year of the opening of the Yaoshan Holy Sword, the closer to Yaoshan the more dangerous it is, if you push yourself into the abyss of no return in order to save an irrelevant child, it is not worth it.
"I think"......
"I think"......
Zhengqing wanted to mention this matter, but somehow he couldn't say it.
At this moment, the middle-aged woman suddenly knelt on her legs and kowtowed to the four people in a row, she was helpless after losing her child, and now she could only count on the four of him to save her child.
Seeing this situation, in desperation, Chu Ting agreed to her request and persuaded Qin Feng and the others to thoroughly investigate the ins and outs of this matter.
Before the sun went down, the four of them went into the city with the middle-aged woman.
Although entering the city, but seeing the round gourd mouth erected on the tile house in the city, the four people always felt very uneasy in their hearts, the previous time in Xuzhou City, the direction under the Bagua Lei Zhen Tower is the shape of the gourd mouth, if Takeo is here, the four will be trapped here.
Before entering the first pass in the city, suddenly a strong wind blew, and Si Yu was so frightened that he hurriedly took out the Duan Spirit Whip, looking at the strange dark clouds in the air, and sure enough, as Si Yu said before, this city is not a place to stay for a long time.
Zhengqing looked at the straws on both sides, these straws had been soaked with water, and it had not rained in Jizhou City in recent days, so this matter was really curious.
"I always feel that there is a demonic aura here, you should be careful at the moment!" Qin Feng half-raised his right hand and motioned for everyone to pay more attention to his side.
Strange to say, when Fang was outside the city, he saw that many people in the city were accompanied by many people in the city and went out of the city, and it was very lively, and once the four of them entered the city, the city was suddenly empty and looked unusually deserted.
This kind of abnormal phenomenon in Jizhou City will make people feel very frightened and even tremble all over.
A moment later, the middle-aged woman led them around a stout stake, and after seven more steps, they saw a wooden door and two nail rakes with the words "17 Phoenix Street" written on the door.
"All the knights, this is the old woman's residence, the old woman is lonely, the wife died of lung disease the year before last, and now there is only a newborn child, he is the hope of my family's future, you knights must save him no matter what." The middle-aged woman was emotional, knelt on the ground again, and kowtowed to four people for help in a row.
Qin Feng raised his hands, he was very helpless about the kowtow of the middle-aged woman in front of him for help, he didn't want to care about such a trivial matter, seeing that Chu Ting was willing to help others, he had to reluctantly help, but he didn't expect the middle-aged woman to kneel down again.
Qin Feng turned around and didn't want to answer, but Siyu stepped forward and helped her up with a smile.
However, Zhengqing has been standing in front of the stake and observing the movements in the city, especially paying more attention to Takeo's Bagua Thunder Shock Tower.
Suddenly, there was a smell of leftovers, which was obviously coming from the house where the middle-aged woman lived, and Siyu followed the unpleasant smell inside.
When they walked into the house, all they saw were some old wooden barrels and withered firewood, and the furnishings in the house were desolate and despicable, but they didn't know where this smell came from.
"It's really miserable here, Miss Ben heard that the people of Jizhou City live a prosperous life, everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, and there is land and silver flowers, why did she see such a scene?" Siyu was surprised: "There is such a big gap between the life of the people in Jizhou City and the rumors, it is really unheard of."
Qin Feng responded with a smile: "Do you think everyone lives like you as a big lady, there are people who serve, people who coax them to eat and sleep, and there are endless glory and wealth."
"What, Qin Feng, if you are dissatisfied with me, tell me as soon as possible, and come back to tell me this and that in the future, make me angry." Siyu grimaced, revealing a hint of dissatisfaction.
"Why, the two of them are still arguing, and they can still quarrel here, I'm really convinced." Chu Ting turned around and didn't want to see the two of them.
"Okay, okay, bringing you two women along the way, it's really caused me a lot of trouble!" Qin Feng scolded for a while, and suddenly the scene became unusually silent.
It may be that his words were a little heavier, and after finishing speaking, the two women shed tears of excitement, after all, in the current situation, it is difficult to say whether they can successfully reach Yaoshan? Even if they arrive at Yaoshan, where the masters are like clouds, can they leave Yaoshan alive to obtain the holy sword? This is still a mystery?
The middle-aged woman prepared four rooms for the four of them, the conditions and facilities in the rooms were poor, the walls in the Zhengqing room were still leaking with wind, the tiles on the roof were in danger of being overturned at any time after encountering strong storms and rains, and from time to time rats were seen on the ground constantly biting some discarded things.
Fortunately, it had just rained here a few days ago, and it would not have been affected by the rain for the next few days, otherwise the dampness in the house and the leakage on the roof would be a painful thing.
After coming out of Pingyuan City this time, all the way to Jizhou City, Qin Feng thought about only one thing in the past three days, that is, the Golden Saint Xuaniron Stone that he found in the secret room of Yinlong Mountain.
So far, it has been a year since Yin Longshan hunted for treasures, and the Golden Saint Xuantie Stone hanging on his neck has always been ordinary, failing to exert its due strength, and now there are dangers everywhere step by step, if you can exert the momentum of the Xuantie Stone, you can easily defend yourself from being unstoppable, and you don't have to think about it so much.
Zhengqing, Chu Ting, and Siyu also couldn't sleep in this long dark night, and the Qingxuanmen tragedy was an extremely heavy burden for the new deputy head now.
And Siyu escaped marriage and burned the cave house this time, completely betrayed his father and betrayed the Chen Mansion, and in the future he will be hunted down by the entire martial arts and the break of the family.
