Chapter 212 Fox Hunt
The town is very close to Yuzhou City.
People who cannot afford a house in Yuzhou City will choose to live here. The public security is good and the prices are not that expensive. When they go out to brag, they can shout: "Fellow, I am from Yuzhou City!"
The small shop Zuo Chen and the others were looking for was located on the edge of the town, next to the main road. The gate beam was trampled flat, bald, and shiny, so they knew that many people came there every day.
After entering the store, it was not too busy, maybe because it was too late.
The store manager was an old man, half asleep and yawning. There were four or five customers gathered in the store. Three of them sat down at the table to eat in a group, chatting and laughing. There was also a young man with a wooden sword, eating vegetables. , don’t speak.
In the end there was a middle-aged man who looked a little downcast, drinking alone.
Zuo Chen looked at the middle-aged man.
The evil spirit emanates from him.
It looks thick and thick, almost condensing into bright red. I am afraid that many people died under his hands.
He is also a half-step innate Taoist, and he is a good hand among Jianghu people.
But it seems that his body is injured now, and his strength is probably only about 30% or 40%.
Finding a table and sitting down, Guan Jinping looked around and murmured in a low voice:
“There are quite a few people from all walks of life in this small shop.”
“ Who are they?" Cai Yi asked curiously.
"The young warrior with the wooden sword over there, his name is Qi Changan. His wife has disappeared, and now he is looking for her in the world.
"And that middle-aged man is the owner of Qingshan Villa, and Qingshan Villa is a man who raises evil people in the world. In this place, he is not a good person. He calls himself a hero, but he can dig out people's hearts and drink wine. Worse than a thief. ”
“That’s it. "
There are ordinary people in the store now. Zuo Chen might cause riots if he kills Zhuang Heng directly, so he suppresses the itch in his hands and sighs softly.
It's a pity, it can't be used. It's a big seal, and it may scare the boss if it's shot with blood and flesh flying everywhere.
I'll put a great disaster talisman on Zhuang Heng's back later.
After a while, the food was on the table, but Zhu Laoba held his chin up and sighed, looking like he had no appetite.
After traveling for a few days, Zhu Laoba asked several storytellers for questioning.
I couldn’t find any information about my eldest sister, but instead listened to the fox and the scholar along the way.
“I found seven storytellers on the road, and six of them told me about the fox and the scholar having a private meeting in the temple. I finally met the last one, who told me something different: his grandma’s , he replaced the scholar with a young hero!”
The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he became. Zhu Laoba slapped the table hard: "If I see any bastard who dares to touch my girl, I'll beat him up!"
"This is the virtue of a storyteller. It's not like you haven't heard Miao Tao talk about it before. This will make it easier to attract others to pay."
Zuo Chen comforted Zhu Laoba twice.
He can probably understand Zhu Laoba's mood.
Basically, I went out for a walk with my daughter, but a man riding a will-o'-the-wisp ran over and shouted into his nose: "Lao Deng, I parked the will-o'-the-wisp downstairs of your house." ”
Zhu Laoba's blood pressure must rise.
After calming down for a while, Zhu Laoba let out a long sigh:
“Alas, don’t these storytellers know any other fox stories? It’s really annoying.”< br>
After cursing a few words, he picked up the bowl in front of him and drank it all in one gulp.
As he continued pouring wine for himself, he suddenly saw Zhuang Heng, who was drinking alone first, walking towards their table.
He sat down next to Zhu Laoba.
“What are you doing?”
Zhu Laoba glared at Zhuang Heng.
He also listened to Guan Jinping's speech just now and knew that this person was not a good person, so naturally he was not angry.
But the other party lowered his voice and said:
"Good brother, are you looking for the fox?"
"Do you know about the fox?"
Zhu Laoba was surprised.
After wandering outside for such a long time, I couldn’t hear it. I was chatting casually in this tavern, and someone actually came to my door.
Zhuang Heng did not answer, but stretched out his hand and rubbed it.
There was a strange smile on his face:
"I've been a little short of money recently..."
Zhu Laoba glanced at him and took out a large pile of gold nuggets from his arms. Photographed on the table.
Zhuang Heng's eyes showed a hint of ecstasy, and he reached out to touch the gold nugget.
Zhu Laoba put his arm directly in front of him and stopped him.
As he came and went, Zhuang Heng had a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, but he seemed to know that he might not get much benefit from his current state, so he had no choice but to lower his attitude and show a flattering smile.
"If you tell the truth, this gold nugget will be yours." Zhu Laoba said.
Zhuang Heng stared at the gold nugget in front of him from time to time with greed, and then he said:
"The next thing I talk about, it may be a bit like It’s a strange story, but I guarantee with my life that what I tell is all true, and I may not be able to help anyone.”
"Stop talking nonsense and speak quickly."
Zhuang Heng was choked and couldn't speak. He could only cough softly twice and said: "Qingshan Villa outside the city, I don't know if any of you have heard of it. ."
"Heard it."
Just heard it.
"That's easy to handle. The strange thing about the fox that some people are asking about happened over there.
"Some time ago, an overlord came up in Qingshan Villa. He was so powerful that even ten Jianghu people could not beat him together. He bloodbathed the entire Villa, occupied the top of the mountain, and became the king. According to him, he is What kind of strong man was he who practiced hard in ancient times and hated the earth without control?
"He said that a disaster occurred in ancient times, and in order to avoid the disaster, he sealed himself.
"Now that the seal has been re-opened, the jade that contains most of his skills was stolen by a fox, causing him to lose everything. Now the heroes of Qingshan Villa are like Looking for foxes on the old battlefield in the wilderness. "
Zhuang Heng's speech was concise and to the point, without much description or personal thoughts. He simply told the matter.
As a story it doesn’t sound good, but it’s exactly what Zhu Laoba needs!
"Are there any other clues?"
"Anything else? What else do you want to hear? That's all I know about the fox. The demon king who awakened in ancient times... he did He is very powerful, but his brain is not very good. He is like a wall of dung and smells bad. Compared with the devil, he is more like picking up some magical skills and practicing them to the point of going crazy. "
Zhuang Heng took the gold nugget in one hand, weighed it in his hand, and bit it twice with his teeth. After discovering that it was genuine gold, he looked happy.
Obviously I haven’t seen such a large sum of money for a long time.
After taking the money, he saw that no one had anything else to ask, so he simply became angry and called the boss to ask him to open a room to rest.
The boss simply used small scissors to pick out a golden bean from the gold nugget and told him to return the extra silver when he went downstairs to check out tomorrow.
Watching Zhuang Heng go upstairs, Zuo Chen also took out a talisman from his arms and put it against his back.
I saw the talisman floating in the air, falling on his back and sticking to his skin.
Zhuang Heng didn't notice at all, but still went upstairs with a face full of joy.
But I don’t know why I tripped at the top of the stairs and almost hit my head.
"Hey, that's weird." He muttered and entered the room smoothly.
Zuo Chen did not directly induce the Catastrophic Talisman. The death of this person in the inn would be bad for the boss's mind and business, so we should wait until he leaves the store early the next day.
After Zhuang Heng left, Zuo Chen asked Zhu Laoba:
"How can I say it? Do you think this is your sister?"
"Yes. It's possible..." Zhu Laoba scratched his head: "That girl is used to being lawless in the dense forest. She catches the beards of dogs fighting, secretly drinks the old monkey's wine, and even goes to the tiger to show off his power. Master Lin Xi’s beating. You said she stole the ancient cultivator’s jade... I think it’s something she could do.”
He looked at Zuo Chen again: "Taoist Master, this time..."
"I'll go with you." Zuo Chen said: "The monk I just mentioned may be the sea of suffering. Before the flood, you sealed up your own demonic cultivation in order to save your life. If you really come across I may not be able to beat him when I arrive. Besides, I can go faster if I follow.”
“It’s really troublesome.”
>
Zuo Chen actually didn’t say the second half of the sentence.
He just got the big seal, and now his hands are really itchy.
At this time, an ancient cultivator with a very famous name popped up. Isn’t this just a target in front of him?
Now Zuo Chen just hopes that this ancient cultivator can bear the beating a little bit, so that he can at least swing the big seal a few more times.
I quickly finished the good wine and meat on the table, and the guests who had finished eating next to me also walked out of the store in a hurry, as if they wanted to spend the night in one of the surrounding restaurants. Only Zuo Chen and his group were left in the shop, and the young wooden sword man who had finished eating and was packing up his belongings.
“Lao Ba, after talking for so long, we still don’t know your girl’s name.” Caiyi asked with a bamboo skewer on her teeth.
"Hey, look at my brain. I'm used to calling her little girl Danzi. I haven't introduced her yet." Zhu Laoba slapped his forehead: "She is the youngest among our group of demon kings, ranking fifth. We Just call her Hu Wuniang."
Qi Changan, the young warrior of Wood Sword, who was packing his things, suddenly stopped and looked sideways at Zuo Chen and the others in surprise:
"Wu Niang. ? Do you know Wu Niang? "
When they were chatting just now, they didn't lower their voices and didn't use any magic to avoid others.
For most people, the chatter from outsiders is not enough to bother their ears. If they really hear them say things like "Monster King" and "Big Jungle", they probably won't take it to heart. At most, they would regard Zuo Chen and his group as lunatics who got into their heads with Mr. Listening and Reading's stories.
At the beginning, Qi Changan was obviously listening to Zuo Chen and the others talking, but when Zhu Laoba said the name Hu Wuniang, Qi Changan's state was completely different.
"Who are you?" Zhu Laoba looked Qi Changan up and down in confusion, his brows furrowed tightly: "Do you know my sister?"
"My name is Qi Changan, Hu Wuniang It’s my wife.”
“Ah?”
Zhu Laoba stood up, stunned.
