Chapter 102 99: The boss appears
On the tower,
Seeing the group of people walking away, their figures getting smaller and smaller, one of them let go of the withered palm holding the sword hilt.
There, a bell fell and made a 'ding-dong-ding-dong' sound, which seemed to break the silence.
A swordsman raised his head slightly, his tattooed face looking extremely ferocious, and he asked: "Why don't we deal with them in the Red Earth City?"
His voice was not loud, but several others seemed to have this doubt as well. They did not speak, but their eyes were all focused on the rickety swordsman.
The rickety swordsman only stared slightly, and did not answer in a hurry. Instead, he waited until several people had almost lost their patience before he spoke quietly: "This red earth city is related to the casting of weapons and armor, and it is extremely important to our Yunya Sword Sect.
If you do something here, if the damage is too great, it will be difficult to explain.
Moreover, don’t you think that taking their lives outside Anyue City, in the wilderness in the middle of the night, and hanging them under the trees on the mountain road would be a better shock? ”
An angry voice sounded: "You guys who are plotting are all evil, but if you want to kill, hurry up. This mission has delayed our brothers for too long."
The speaker was a baby dwarf on the back of a strong man, holding a short sword and shaving his nails.
The nails were sharpened and sharpened, and they were coated with toxins, giving them a black and blue color.
"It's just tonight, it's time to end."
"I hope so."
……
They are looking at others, and others are looking at him...
Under the city, in a certain house, there was a man slumped lazily on a chair, as if his body was boneless and limp.
He even looked sideways at the city with a careless smile on his face.
On the side, the old drunkard shrugged his nose, took another sip of wine, and said, "Master, are you really not going to go out and meet with Chief Chu?"
"What are you meeting for? Why do you want to meet?"
"Can you not forget the order given to you by Guanzhu Zhou?"
"Order, you mean order?"
The man raised his neck, stared at the old drunkard, and said in a bad tone: "You mean Zhou Wu is a level above me, and I must listen to whatever he says?"
The drunken old man was so sweaty when he looked at him that he had to say: "It's a request, a request!"
"This is like what people say!"
The man collapsed back again and muttered: "Although I can't beat him, but I don't want to lose face?
Orders, orders, it annoys me to say orders! ! ! ”
However, having said that, he added: "Don't worry, my people are ready and have used methods. These people can't escape my tracking.
However, although I promised Zhou Wu to protect his life, I want to see how virtuous he can be to enjoy this "enshrined" position on an equal footing with us. ”
The drunken old man wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by the man's wave of his hand. He closed his eyes and was completely unwilling to speak.
Even now, the old drunkard didn't dare to speak. He looked at the tower and sighed in his heart.
This is all I can do. I just hope that my little brother can be more alert.
……
Outside the city, on the mountain road.
Chu Zhou turned his head and looked back at Red Earth City, his eyes narrowed, as if he saw something from a long distance away.
Wei Jinkui stepped forward on his horse and asked: "Master, what's wrong?"
Since he became the elder of the outer sect of Xuanzhen Temple, Wei Jinkui no longer wanted to call Chu Zhou 'nephew', but instead called him 'the master of the temple'.
Chu Zhou felt awkward at first, but now he is used to it. He squinted slightly, as if sensing something, and then said: "I feel malice, great malice."
Since the "Five Elements Training Method" is approaching perfection, the five internal organs have grown to a certain extent.
These do not seem to provide direct combat power, but in fact they are related to all aspects of body functions. In addition to the five senses, they even form some kind of spiritual sense.
From this distance and angle, Chu Zhou couldn't see the people on the tower, but the malice was there, naked and bright, as bright as a candle.
Yi Huai and Wei Fangjie also came over. They never doubted Chu Zhou's judgment, they just said: "Elder brother, is it as we guessed before?"
"I don't know, but it's only a day's journey from here to Anyue City. If they want to take action, I guess it will be tonight.
So, please stay vigilant, there will be a fight if you can't say it. ”
Yi Huai was very excited: "Let's fight, who is afraid of whom? I have been looking forward to it for too long."
Wei Fangjie shook the spear in his hand and made a clanging sound: "Me too."
Wei Jinkui was even more indifferent: "Just come."
In any case, when they set off again, the team became much more alert. Chu Zhou no longer stayed in the carriage, but rode at the front.
He closed his eyes slightly and let the horse move forward while sitting down, maximizing his perception. Although he couldn't see anything, everything around him seemed to have a clear outline in his mind.
And this state was maintained until evening.
They found a place leeward, formed a circle around the carriage, lit a bonfire, and roasted a caught rabbit on the fire.
As soon as the various ingredients are sprinkled and licked by the flames, the aroma will spread.
Then take the iron pot, pour water, throw in the dry food and dried meat and cook, add some seasonings, and it will become a pot of thick soup.
The taste is naturally not great, but when you eat it on an empty stomach, it tastes quite good.
Of course, it is impossible to be full with just this amount of food. The belly of a warrior is not so easy to fill.
Therefore, after the meal, after boiling a pot of water, I threw in various pills, some for replenishing qi and some for nourishing blood. After taking some, I just felt warm all over.
They were eating happily when they heard rustling sounds in the darkness. Yi Huai turned his head and shouted: "Who, come out?"
"People who collect herbs in the mountains, can I ask for a bowl of decoction?"
In the darkness, a figure slowly approached. He was not very fast, and seemed to be lame. He was limping, and his hands were raised high so that others could see him. When they got closer, they realized that this was actually a lame young man with a basket behind him, who seemed to be dressed as a herb gatherer.
It's just that he was seriously injured, and even if he was covered by clothes, he could still see the blood stains oozing out.
The injury on his right leg was particularly obvious. There were scratches around the knee, which were covered with herbs and wrapped casually.
Wei Fangjie looked him up and down and asked, "What are you doing?"
"When you go up the mountain to collect herbs, you slip and fall. That means you are lucky, and you are lucky enough not to die."
The young man smiled bitterly: "I smelled the fragrance of the medicine and asked for 10,000 without comment."
Wei Fangjie did not agree, but looked at Chu Zhou. When he saw him nodding slightly, he said: "Then come in."
As he spoke, he stepped forward and moved the barrier between the vehicles, exposing a gap to allow people to enter the encirclement, and then closed it again.
Yi Huai filled a bowl of medicinal soup for him and handed it over: "Drink!"
The man didn't mind, he held the bowl up to his nose, smelled it, said, "What a tonic decoction" and poured it into his mouth.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
After drinking 'Gudongdong', his pale face became a little flushed, there were faint sweat stains on his forehead, and his whole person became a little more energetic.
Handing the bowl back, he put on a smile and was about to say something more when Chu Zhou finally spoke.
"The soup is finished, you can go!"
He gave the eviction order, and the visitor's face froze, but he still put on a smile and said: "It's dark and windy this night. I'm really scared. Do you think you can keep me here for the night?
With this bonfire and these carriages, we can be a little safer. ”
Chu Zhou slowly turned his head, looked at this person, just looked up and down, and said: "The injury on your leg was caused by abrasion. It cannot be ruled out that it was a fall from a height, but the injury on your body is definitely The scratch was caused by the sword
But, after you dealt with it and took some medicine, you should be able to barely control it.
You have practiced martial arts, so your physical fitness should not be bad, but the backpack on your back has obviously dropped.
It can't be medicine that has just been collected and not processed. It can only be some valuables, and you need to cover it up. ”
"It's true that you came to us to ask for medicine, but you are not just asking for medicine, you also want to divert trouble to the east."
"So, who are you? What's in your backpack? Who is chasing you?"
Chu Zhou's words were very plain, but when they fell on this man's ears, they were no less than thunder on the ground. He quickly took a few steps back, clenched his hands in front of his fists, and made a defensive posture.
Only then did he realize that he seemed to have stepped out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's den, because the other people were not nervous at all.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?"
As if he had thought of something, the lame young man exclaimed in shock: "You, are you also the lackeys of the Iron Horse Hall and the Foundry Gate?"
"Pfft!"
Beside him, Wei Fangjie smiled. His smile was not malicious, but mocking: "You have been scheming against us. Now you act like you are the victim. How strange!"
Chu Zhou said: "You go!"
"Are you willing to let me go?"
"We are not in the business of robbing families and homes, and we are not interested in your secrets, so let's go, hurry up.
Otherwise, you won't be able to leave. ”
Chu Zhou's words were still calm, but the man didn't want to leave. He said, "You are not interested in my identity at all?"
"Not interested, leave quickly!"
Yi Huai stepped forward and wanted to drive him away, but the man actually bowed slowly and put the basket behind him on the ground.
There was a 'pop' sound, as if a lot of weight had been lifted off.
He asked again: "Are you not interested in this either?"
"Now, it's hard for you to leave."
Chu Zhou stood up, but no longer looked at him, but looked outside the carriage.
Then, the sound of noisy footsteps came, and someone holding a torch quickly approached. The speed was very fast, and soon a crowd gathered.
Only when you get close can you see clearly that these people should be divided into two groups, dressed differently, with messy weapons, and they are very wary of each other.
When they saw the carriage and the bonfire, they had no reaction, but when their eyes locked on the lame young man and the basket, their eyes suddenly lit up.
But Chu Zhou didn't look at them. They were not in his eyes. Instead, he stepped over them and looked into the darkness.
"Now that you're here, why don't you show up?"
In the darkness, a voice sounded: "He found us? How did he find me?"
"Who knows? I thought we hid it well, but I didn't expect it! I didn't expect it!"
"It seems that this person has some abilities. No wonder he has such a big name."
"So what, you don't have to die in our hands."
In the darkness, the sound of footsteps came, the tapping became clearer, accompanied by the sound of 'ding-dong-ding-dong' bells.
This sound is crisp and melodious, but it is also like a reminder!
The two groups that followed seemed to know who this person was, and they couldn't control the panic in their eyes, and they trembled all over and moved to both sides.
A few of them, whose legs were so weak that they could no longer walk, were stunned to support themselves on the ground with their hands and drag themselves away from where they were.
Then, one person, two people, three people, four people appeared in the darkness, and they walked into the firelight.
The rickety swordsman looked ordinary, but when the bell rang around his waist, no one dared to call him ordinary.
"Blood, blood bells?"
The second update is here!
