Volume 1 Citygate Chapter 69 Broken Appointment

Hu Jian looked at the empty dormitory, and suddenly noticed the dazzling sunlight coming in from the window, and his face changed...

"Not good!"

Hu Jian remembered the agreement with "Wen Terpene" in his heart, hurriedly got up, hastily put on his clothes, rushed out of the camp, and ran towards the entrance of the barracks.

"Well, why are you going, I brought you lunch. Miao Song met Hu Jian who was running rapidly in the middle of the road and shouted at Hu Jian.

"I have an appointment, I'm late, thank you. Hu Jian looked at the position of the sun in the sky, anxious, he was already half an hour late.

Miao Song looked at Hu Jian's back and scratched his head, he remembered that Hu Jian said yesterday that he didn't have any friends at Eastgate, why didn't he look like this now...

A quarter of an hour later, Hu Jian's face was ugly, and his eyes were anxiously looking at the figures at the camp gate, visiting relatives, signing up for the army, and the figures of various sergeants coming and going, where there was still the shadow of "smelling terpenes".

He was anxious in his heart, but at the same time, there was an angry mood mixed in it, thinking about Tie Wen's help to him, and he felt a little guilty for no reason.

"Let's apologize to her again when I have a chance in the future!"

After a long time, Hu Jian sighed and walked towards the outside of the barracks, this is really not called personnel, but he has a lot of headaches and troubles now, cultivation is a bottleneck, Yin Spirit Grass, Salt Gang, Ge You, Zhang Guang, and Hu Zhong Zhao Ling, who doesn't know whether it is safe or not, including the curse of life and death with Ape Wu, he felt that Ape Wu was gradually weakening, thinking of these things, he forced himself to suppress the "smelling terpene" thing.

Hu Jian came out of the barracks to find the little monkey, he first asked the little monkey to help find out the information of Xiaobai Zhao Lan, yesterday in the teahouse, the information provided by the little monkey was basically the same as what Hu Jian found from Han Qiao, or even more detailed, such as Zhao Lan and his party in He Yan and the hall masters of the four branches, as well as a group of more than a dozen martial arts masters who went to the beast forest half a month ago, 8 percent in order to take the vine green dragon vine to cure Xiaobai's eyes.

Hu Jian was very satisfied with the result of the little monkey, in addition to the original remuneration, he gave the little monkey two thousand taels of silver tickets, and asked him to help check whether Guo Yun and his party had arrived at Citygate, and also went to the gate of heaven to find out the information of Hengtianmen, as for Zhao Ling and Hu Zhong, it is obviously impossible to find out with just two names, but Zhang Guang's Hengtianmen must be found, after all, it is the sect of the martial god Zhao Heng, Hu Jian's idea is to follow the vine and touch the melon, Hu Jian, who has entered Citygate, has begun to inquire about the whereabouts of his parents Grandpa Zhang.

Hu Jian walked to the city gate of the city, saw the scratch carved on a willow tree next to the city gate, his eyes widened slightly, and after walking to the tree to confirm it, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

He turned quickly, his eyes looked in the direction of the left front, and he walked quickly in this direction...

Half an hour later, Hu Jian stood in front of an ordinary thatched house on the south side of the city center, looking at the dilapidated and yellowed wooden door in front of him, and a few small black characters in the upper right corner of the door, "No. 736 Dong Jie Street".

Citygate covers an area of 10,000 acres, which is very different from other cities, because the center of the city was originally a dilapidated farmhouse, and the Fang market was built later on the periphery, so except for the four roads that lead directly to the east, west, north and south Fang City, it looks quite prosperous, and the rest of the city is such ordinary thatched houses, which look a little dilapidated, and it does not look like a giant city at all.

"Knock knock" Hu Jian took a slight breath and knocked on the door.

"Who?"

A middle-aged man with a dull yellow face and purple lips opened the door, the middle-aged man had a scruffy beard, oily hair like a straw hat on his head, and his right leg and left sleeve were empty, and his left arm and right leg were absent.

"Is Yin Monkey here?" Hu Jian looked at this scene, and was slightly shocked in his heart, in addition to noticing the disability of the middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man's lips were purple, as if he was deeply poisoned.

"Oh, the little monkey went to buy something to eat in the street, and will be back in a moment, come in and sit down and have a cup of tea. The man's face showed a hint of abruptness, and he hurriedly opened the door and invited Hu Jian in.

There was a faint smell of earth in the room, and the whole room seemed to be a little damp because the windows were low and could not see the sunlight, Hu Jian sat next to the chair and took the tea handed by the middle-aged man.

"Thank you, I don't know what you call it?" asked Hu Jian in response.

"Yin Tiesheng, if the little brother doesn't dislike it, just call me Brother Yin. The middle-aged man laughed.

Hu Jian's face was full of scars, Yin Tiesheng couldn't tell Hu Jian's age, but his voice was not loud, but he felt that Hu Jian was very mature, and he didn't know that Hu Jian could actually call him uncle.

"Master Chen, you're here. As soon as Hu Jian wanted to ask Yin Tiesheng's body, he saw the little monkey carrying two paper bags and appeared at the door, with a look of surprise on his face.

Yin Tiesheng saw the figure of the little monkey, his eyes flashed with a hint of love, and he stood up with a cane.

"You talk, I'll go out for a walk. Yin Tiesheng turned around and walked towards the door and spoke.

"Well, Brother Yin, be careful!" Hu Jian stood up when he heard this, and watched Yin Tiesheng leave.

"Dad, you have this bun with you. The little monkey handed Yin Tiesheng a paper bag.

"Hmm. Yin Tiesheng took the bun, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were stacked together, and he touched the little monkey's head with a happy face.

"Lord Chen, would you like to have some?" the little monkey turned his head and handed another paper bag to Hu Jian.

Hu Jian shook his head, he hadn't eaten since the morning, and he vomited last night, his stomach was indeed empty, but he was embarrassed to eat the little monkey's lunch.

"Is there any news about the matter you checked?" Hu Jian waved his hand and then asked.

"Well, it's not a difficult thing for adults to investigate, Tianmen gave me all the information this morning, as for Guo Yun and his party, they came five days ago, and there was nothing unusual, that is, someone broke an arm, and the group sold tobacco leaves to the tobacco store and left quickly. The little monkey was beaming, and handed over a folded piece of oiled paper, about two or three sheets thick.

"Why don't adults check it out for themselves, is it because they deliberately take care of the little monkey, that's why?" The little monkey showed a trace of doubt on his face, hesitated for a moment and said, the information that Hu Jian checked was very ordinary, there was nothing particularly difficult, and he couldn't figure out why Hu Jian would let him do these things.

"No, it's not convenient for me to come forward. Hu Jian looked at the little monkey and groaned slightly, he did have the ingredients to take care of the little monkey, but more for the sake of prudence, he didn't want anyone to notice him.

"Your father?" Hu Jian frowned slightly, and asked his doubts.

"Dad, alas...."The little monkey looked at Hu Jian's face with a hint of gloom, "I don't know, I've been like this since I was three years old, and now it's been 10 years, and he doesn't want to tell me, I only know that he has poisoned injuries and is getting weaker day by day." ”

"So it's been at least ten years?" Hu Jian's heart was slightly shocked, he looked at Yin Tiesheng's black purple lips, he already knew that he had a poisonous wound on his body, but with the blood qi to suppress the poisonous injury for ten years, how terrifying was the little monkey father's original cultivation.

"Well, I heard from the neighbors that Dad came here eleven years ago, and Dad was like this at that time, and he looked depressed every day...", the little monkey nodded and replied.

After the little monkey came into contact with Hu Jian, his favorability towards Hu Jian doubled, and he was not as scared as he was at the beginning, and he had an inexplicable trust in Hu Jian, but he had never said these words to others.

"Didn't you find someone to heal?" Hu Jian hesitated for a while, but still spoke.

"Alas... Lord Chen, Dad is reluctant to let others heal, I have also found some Lang Zhong and the like before, but they were all blown away by Daddy, saying that those people are here to cheat money. The little monkey looked embarrassed and sighed.

Hu Jian thought for a moment in his heart, and was about to open his mouth to see Yin Tiesheng's poison, when the door was pushed open with a "squeak"...

Yin Tiesheng's face was ugly, looking at Hu Jian's face with a faint trace of anger, he walked in, "Little monkey, you tell your father the truth, what news have you been helping this Lord Chen find out in the past two days?"
