"Yuanfeng, do you think this place is really as evil as they say?

The Heavenly Sword Sect Sect Leader Xu Kun didn't believe in the situation in Hengzhou, people always like to spread false rumors and exaggerate the facts, what 100,000 troops have gone and never returned, and no one in a state has survived, anyway, he has not seen it with his own eyes.

"Come on, didn't you fall in love with the heavy money allowed by the court, and said that you should stop gambling, how much do you owe?"

Li Yuanfeng has long seen through the character of this sect master, and every time he says that he will not gamble, but he will gamble for money after three or four days, I really don't know how this kind of person can be so kind to set up a Heavenly Sword Sect to adopt orphans, and also teach them swordsmanship, although it is often said that there is not enough to eat, but it is better than living on the streets, freezing to death and starving to death.

Xu Kun smiled awkwardly and stretched out four fingers to gessy.

"Forty taels?" Li Yuanfeng asked casually.

"Four hundred taels?"

Li Yuanfeng's eyes widened more and more, and when he saw Xu Kun nodding shamelessly, he really wanted to pull out his sword and stab this sect master to death.

"Xu Kun, are you crazy, right? Do you know how long four hundred taels is enough for us?"

"It's not like I couldn't hold back for a while, besides, there are a lot of disciples in the door, and there are a lot of places to spend money, I just want to fight, and if I win, I will stop, but I didn't expect ......" Xu Kun said more and more quietly, if it weren't for Li Yuanfeng, he really wouldn't be able to survive on his own in the past two years.

"That's why you asked me to come here with you, just for the reward of the imperial court, Xu Kun, you are amazing, you don't even want your life for gambling money, I probably fell into the evil spirit to believe your words, what Heavenly Sword Sect, the whole one owes Qian Sect!" Li Yuanfeng was really angry, there are still more than a dozen disciples to feed in this sect, you Xu Kun is good, not to mention that the money you earn is not enough, but also to gamble, not to mention that you lose the bet, and you still owe four hundred taels of silver.

"Alas, this is not a mistake, but don't worry, as long as we go to Hengzhou for a walk, don't say four hundred taels at that time, even four thousand taels can be afforded, I also plan to buy a piece of land for our sect and hire a group of craftsmen...... Hehe, it's a little more magnificent, and when there are more disciples, we can also be called a big faction. Xu Kun was not worried, his mind was full of how he would spend his money in the future.

"Thinking so beautifully, in case the rumors are true, aren't we sheep in the mouth of the tiger, and there is no return?" Li Yuanfeng is not as optimistic as him, he is still self-aware, since Hengzhou is rumored to be so terrifying, although he and Xu Kun have some skills, it seems that they are still a little behind.

"Just go to the border city to have a look, if it's really wrong, let's turn around and leave." Xu Kun snorted.

"Take a look, there is no silver for you, the imperial court should know the whereabouts and situation of the army sent to Hengzhou at the beginning, this money is so easy to earn, which round will you and me?" Li Yuanfeng didn't believe what he said at all, Xu Kun was the master who saw the money, but it wasn't all for himself, after all, many disciples in the sect were counting on them to feed.

"I look down on those self-proclaimed famous sects, what they say on weekdays is so good, so majestic, and there are countless masters, but when things come to an end, they are just some goods who are afraid of death, they can't make this money, I Xu Kun will make it. Xu Kun said loudly, anyway, there are no outsiders left and right.

"Come on, just your three-legged cat kung fu, even I can't beat it, and I look down on others, I'll say it first, if there's anything wrong, just leave, if you're not afraid of death, I don't care about you." Li Yuanfeng said the words first, he was really afraid that Xu Kun would not know whether he was alive or dead when the time came.

The two came from Yanzhou Lingcheng, not far from Hengzhou, riding two horses to stop and walk, at first they could meet a few people, but when they were close to Hengzhou, there was no half a person on the road, full of depression scene, the passing villages were also empty, only a few poultry were left that had not had time to be taken away, but let the two people who faded out of the birds in their mouths opened the meat.

After about ten days, he finally arrived outside the border city of Hengzhou.

Quiescence.

There is no silence even the sound of birds and insects.

The city gate is ajar, and the scene in the city is not real, but Li Yuanfeng has already smelled a strange smell from afar, which is a rotten smell, just like the smell of maggots emitted by a piece of meat after being put for half a month, and before they have entered, the two have already scrambled to vomit their stomachs.

"What kind of smell is this, it smells bad...... ...... vomit" Xu Kun covered his face, but the smell still couldn't stop drilling into his nose, and he leaned over and vomited again.

"I have a bad idea, do you want to hear it...... ...... vomit" The picture that came to Li Yuanfeng's mind made him can't help but start throwing up again.

"Don't, don't say it, my intestines are about to vomit. Xu Kun hurriedly waved his hand to refuse, his face was full of discomfort, but his stomach was almost vomited, and he slowly eased up.

"Can you get in?" Li Yuanfeng retreated in his heart, if he turned back at this time, it was actually nothing, and it would be a big deal to come for nothing.

"Come in, why don't you come in, it's all at the door, I'm very curious. Xu Kun took the lead and stretched out his hand to push open the gate of the border city.

The stench, which was far stronger than that outside the city, came to his face, Xu Kun felt that he couldn't breathe for a moment, only heard two horse neighings, and the horse behind him turned around and ran, no matter how Li Yuanfeng shouted, he didn't look back at all.

"This ......" Xu Kun looked at the two distant horses blankly, not to mention anything else, these two horses are worth a lot of money even if they are sold, and they are still counting on them when they go back.

"What am I talking about, you don't listen to you when you go back, you have to go in, now even the horse has run away, you still can't get in?" Li Yuanfeng scolded angrily while covering his nose.

Xu Kun slapped his thigh and said, "Dry food!

was reminded by Xu Kunyi, Li Yuanfeng also came back to his senses, he still had seven swords on the horse, the two looked at each other, and there was only one word in his mind, chase!

But with their light skills, where could they catch up with the startled horse, and ran out of the road for three miles, and they couldn't even see the shadow of the horse.

"There is not a single family in a hundred miles here! There is no dry food, how are we going back!?" Li Yuanfeng grabbed Xu Kun's collar violently, he was actually even more angry that his sword was lost.

Xu Kun gasped and pointed to the border city behind him, "Don't worry, what's the use of being in a hurry, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, since we can't turn back, let's go in and see what kind of demons and monsters are doing." ”

The gloomy sky saw no sunlight, and the wind was cold and cold, as if it wanted to cut off all the flesh and skin of people.

Both of them are holding long swords, one in front of the other, with a piece of cloth tied to their faces, which is the sleeve of their own cut off, in fact, it has not much effect, it can only be said that talking is better than nothing.

The second time I pushed open the city gate, it was still the suffocating stench.

Fang just poked the probe, Xu Kun was smoked out, and he didn't see the scene in the city clearly, but he was looking at it at the moment, but he didn't see any terrifying scenes, only empty streets.

The two couldn't help but look at each other, their hearts were ready, looking at the tragic scene in the city, but the scene in front of them made their hearts more and more uneasy.

"Could it be that the monster ate all the people and froze them alive and didn't even have a corpse left?" Xu Kun said half-jokingly, trying to dispel the solemn atmosphere.

Li Yuanfeng was taken aback, and almost stabbed his sword towards Xu Kun, which was so quiet that Xu Kun's voice was obviously not loud, and it was as piercing as thunder in this city.

"How big does this monster's belly have to be to eat the entire Hengzhou people in half a month, do you think it's possible?" Li Yuanfeng said angrily, he really has no idea now, the dry food and horses are lost, how can he go back?

"No one has seen it, who knows, I can't say that the army sent by the imperial court, the sect masters in Hengzhou, were all eaten by that monster, which caused the scene in front of me. The more Xu Kun said, the more reasonable he felt.

"If that monster really has such a big appetite, why don't you go to other states after eating Hengzhou? Where does this smell come from?" Li Yuanfeng looked at Xu Kun like an idiot, and he didn't think that he could achieve enough things at a critical moment.

"This ...... What does it smell...... I know, people have three urgency, do you think this monster will eat too much, ......" Xu Kun thought for a moment, patted his head and said.

"Sect Master Xu, I sometimes think about it, did you lose your brain when you gambled money, and you haven't redeemed it yet?" Li Yuanfeng sighed, he had this kung fu to guess, why didn't he take off the dry food on the horse and take it with him at that time.

"I'm not guessing, it's so quiet here, I'm so cautious, but then again, where did this smell come from?" Xu Kun smiled a little awkwardly, and immediately changed the topic, he didn't want to talk about his loss at all.

"How do I know that this smell is all over the city. ”

The border city is not small, even three points bigger than the Yinzhou Imperial City, it is impossible for two people to go around without a four or five days, wandering aimlessly, whether it is an inn or a restaurant, a private house or an official mansion are empty, after a long time, this smell will gradually disappear, probably adapted.

The sky gradually darkened, and the two still didn't see a living thing, not even chickens, ducks, cats and dogs, but they didn't encounter any man-eating monsters, and they were quite fortunate to be disappointed.

It's about to be winter, the wind at night is getting colder and colder, although the two of them are wearing a lot, but they can't help the wind blowing like this, looking at the sky, maybe there will be rain, immediately found an inn, planning to spend the night first, to the surprise of the two, although there is no one in this inn, but firewood, rice, oil and salt are readily available, and even wine and a lot of pickled things.

"Bodhisattva bless, I thought I would starve to death here, but there is something to eat. Xu Kun is also too lazy to be polite, anyway, there is no one, and there is no need to spend money.
