Chapter 22: The Plague of Innocence

The bustling streets of the capital city are full of people coming and going, the traffic is busy, and the sound of selling is endless.

Lin Nan wandered around, and there was a kind of sadness that the world was so big that there was nowhere to go. Although he came to the capital city to find a master to lift the spell in his body, how could this strange person be so easy to find.

In this way, following the flow, there is a kind of aimless walking, and I don't know how long it has been, suddenly the thought flashed in his mind, the inn is extremely crowded, and it is by no means a good place to inquire about the news.

Thinking of this, Lin Nan patted his face and let out a breath of air, forcing himself to lift his spirit. Along the street, he walked straight forward, and after a while, he saw a sign hanging out in front of him, which read, "Yuelai Inn." ”

He stepped into it, and at this time, the shopkeeper also greeted him, and said with a smile: "Is the guest officer eating, or staying in the hotel?"

Lin Nan took a look, and saw that this place was full of people and the business was very good, so he found a relatively secluded place and sat down, and the shopkeeper naturally followed. He ordered a few random side dishes and asked for a pot of wine, and then sat quietly.

People come in and out of the inn, there are ordinary people, there are merchants who have stopped in the past, and there are people from the three religions and nine streams of the rivers and lakes. The topics that these people talk about are also very different, which girl is good-looking, and there is a feeling that business is difficult to do in these years, he sat from morning to night, and he didn't hear the information he wanted.

However, Lin Nan is not a person with a weak mind, in a month, he concocted a circle around the capital city, and now he is back in this 'Yuelai Inn'.

He sat in the position last time, holding his cheeks, a little listless, although he didn't find out the whereabouts of the Xiuzhen master in this month, but it made him learn a lot of things, it turned out that this Xiuzhen also has a family sect, but they are very low-key in the world, and it is quite difficult to find them.

Just when Lin Nan fell into his thoughts, the inn suddenly became noisy, and several people dressed as chivalrous warriors not far away were discussing something with relish.

"The Blue Dragon Gang and the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect are negotiating in the 'Five Castle Pavilion'!"

"Oh, what the hell is it that these two giants are so stabbing and using force?"

"It is said that it is for the site of 'Clear Water Pond'. ”

These people talked quite loudly, and Lin Nan listened carefully for a while, and he also understood the matter.

It turned out that there were four major gangs in Yandu City, and they were: the Green Dragon Gang, the Jiaoshi Society, the Nine Snake Gate and the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect. These four major forces each have their own territory, and they clamp each other down, and although there will be some small fights in peacetime, they will not stir up any huge waves. It's just that not long ago, the Qinglong Gang and the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect suddenly fought over a piece of territory, and it intensified, killing and injuring many people, and finally the big shots on both sides couldn't sit still, so they made an appointment to negotiate in the 'Wubao Pavilion'.

Lin Nan was not interested in this kind of trivial matter, and after listening to it, he also had a laughing attitude.

......

It was getting late, and the night was falling.

"It seems that this is another futile. ”

Lin Nan sighed, the expenses of this period of time have stretched his finances, and it is not a long-term solution after all. He shook his head and walked out of the inn, the feeling of loss in his heart overflowing.

Walking on the street, the autumn wind blows, which has a sense of depression.

Lin Nan had already checked out of the inn, carrying a big burden on his back, where was the 'Qiankun Poison Sutra' and a change of clothes, he was going to find a temple to shelter from the wind and rain, settle down for a night, and then make another plan.

As everyone knows, he has just left the inn and has been targeted by some troubles.

In the hidden place, a fat man with a big belly said to his companion next to him, who was thin and had long sharp-beaked monkey cheeks: "Dog Fourth, that kid really has silver? Look at him wearing coarse linen clothes, black and thin, he doesn't look like a rich man." ”

Hearing this, the thin man glanced at the fat man who spoke, and said in a somewhat dissatisfied tone: "These days, I have seen him go in and out of many inns, have you seen him, the burden on his back is full, and it is heavy when he looks at it. ”

The fat man snorted, obviously disdainful of the care that came out of the dog's mouth.

These two people are the characters that the people of the capital city respect and stay away, and they are nicknamed the dog four and the bear five of the double whirlwind. In peacetime, they were abducted and deceived, eating, drinking, and gambling, but they were quite good at inquiring about news from all walks of life, and secretly, the government and various gangs had some dealings with them.

Lin Nan turned a few corners, away from the hustle and bustle of the street, and the surroundings gradually quieted down. In the crowd, there were several men with strange expressions and whispered.

For the people who followed secretly, Lin Nan frowned, and when he entered the alley, he was already aware of it, but now that he wanted to turn back to the street, he would definitely have to meet them, so it was better to walk straight and see if he could get rid of them.

With a wry smile, Lin Nan couldn't imagine that his luck was so bad, and he was targeted by the ruffians and hooligans not long after he came here. He walked faster and faster, and trotted behind him, but the man who followed him was always attached to his bones, and could not get rid of it.

Turning into an alley, two people suddenly came out in front of him, and they were looking at Lin Nan with bad intentions.

Lin Nan was taken aback, hurriedly turned around, and wanted to turn around, but the fat man and the thin man on the road in front of him flashed out again.

Apparently these four are a nest of snakes and rats.

At this time, the thin dog four "hehe" laughed twice and said: "Boy, if you know each other, hand over the silver, so as not to make a big move and break your menstrual bones." ”

Lin Nan frowned, but if he told them that there were only a few taels of silver left on his body, I am afraid they would not believe it, and then they would be extremely angry, and it would be possible to take their own lives.

Lin Nan looked panicked, and hurriedly said: "A good man, spare your life, I will give you whatever you want." ”

"Haha..."

Hearing this, the four and two dogs glanced at each other and laughed, obviously quite satisfied with Lin Nan's knowledge of the times.

"Leave the back bread behind. Xiong Wu pointed to the burden that Lin Nan was carrying.

A look of hesitation flashed on Lin Nan's face, he only learned the art of fur through this Qiankun poison, and now he is reluctant to let him give up, but the four people in front of him know at a glance that they are the kind of people who are extremely vicious, and it is still easy to choose which is more important than his own life.

Without saying a word, he unloaded his burden and placed it on the ground, while his back was pressed against the wall, and he cautiously walked to the other side.

I don't know if the four dogs and others are in a good mood today, or they are quite disdainful of a little person like Lin Nan, so they made him turn a corner and disappear from view.

Gou Si sneered, glanced in the direction of Lin Nan's departure, and then quickly walked to the baggage. The four of them glanced at each other, their faces were full of greed, and it was obvious that they had done nothing less than this murderous and oversold thing.

With nervousness and anticipation, I untied the firm knot.

When they saw it, the four of them were stunned, and this big burden was full of books.

The dog stamped his feet and cursed. The rest of the people also looked indignant, scolding and scolding.

However, at this moment, at the end of the alley, there was a sudden sound of "whoosh" breaking through the air, and the four dogs and others were taken aback and suddenly looked up, seeing the money darts spinning and flying in the sky.

They have been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and they have seen a lot of the world. Seeing this, although he was shocked, he was not confused. One by one, they sacrificed their weapons and gestured in front of them, and the sound of bells suddenly sounded.

After a while, except for the thin dog four and the fat bear five, although the other two did not hurt their surnames, they also made the money dart cut a lot of wounds, which looked quite embarrassing.

At the entrance of the alley, Lin Nan stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the four of them without any expression.

The dog was furious, and he wanted to attack, but the next two "bang, bang" sounds that fell to the ground made him blurt out the words, and he was forced to cut them in his throat, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and muttered: "The dart is poisonous..."

He glanced at the fat man, both of whom saw horror in the other's eyes, but in the next moment, the young man raised his right arm again, and his fingers gently flicked the switch.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. Three arrows burst out of the robe.

The alley was extremely narrow, how could it allow two people to bend down at the same time, and Lin Nan attacked by surprise.

Pity the fat man, with a big belly, and before he could react, he fell down. And the four dogs were skinny and reflexive, and they even let him dodge it.

Lin Nan smiled "hehe" and walked towards him slowly, and his other arm was also gently raised at this time.

The four elders of the dog looked like a crooked melon and cracked dates, and he was shouting and shouting to kill at every turn, but now it was really the moment of life and death, but his face was as frightened as earth, and the momentum of plagiarism was gone, he looked frightened, and he was slowly moving his steps back.

His mouth twitched, as if he wanted to say something, and suddenly the sound of hurried footsteps sounded in the area, and it seemed that there were still many people listening to it.

Lin Nan's brows furrowed, cutting grass without eradicating the root is definitely not his surname, but at this time, Gou Si also paused and retreated with a very tacit understanding. Obviously, neither of them knew whether they were friends or foes, or if they were each other's helpers.
