Chapter 39: Chasing the Murderer on a Rainy Night

On the path among the peach forests, Ye Tong walked with his hands behind his back. He could feel that the aura of heaven and earth in the Taoyuan Inn area was much richer than the outside, and he even had a faint feeling that the entire Taoyuan Inn The inn was covered by formations, but after observing for a long time, he didn't dare to make a conclusion.

The sound of gurgling water came from not far away.

Ye Tong walked along the path, and soon saw a sparkling river. However, what made him stand still was that when he crossed the river, he saw a familiar face.

Mu Qianlan?

Why is she here?

Ye Tong's gaze swept across Lan Tianyu who was wearing a veil beside Mu Qianlan, then turned around without hesitation, and returned along the way she came.

He doesn't hate Mu Qianlan, but he is afraid of trouble.

As the saying goes: beauty is disaster.

Mu Qianlan's appearance is too outstanding, with phoenix eyebrows and bright eyes, Gu Pan is haunting, exquisite and greasy nose, skin as white as snow, red lips a little more like a little red plum in the snow, lonely and coquettish, just like a picture from a brocade painting The fairy who came out of the world, this kind of woman, is like sweet nectar, no matter where it is, it will attract bees and butterflies.

Ye Tong came to the county for the first time and didn't know much about it. Even if she had a few acquaintances, it would still not be a joy to get into trouble, so Ye Tong wanted to avoid Mu Qianlan.

Passing through the peach forest, Ye Tong saw Yao Nu standing in front of the attic door, looking left and right, looking for her figure, while the waitress named Duo Lan stood quietly behind Yao Nu, Ye Tong walked over Then he asked, "Is it done?"

Yao Nu smiled and said, "It's done, Herringbone Pavilion."

Duo Lan took a few steps forward, and said with a smile: "Two distinguished guests, please follow me. The servant will take you to the rented pavilion."

"I'm sorry to trouble you." Ye Tong nodded slightly.

Renzi Pavilion, No. 28.

Although this antique pavilion is not small compared to the nearby ones, Ye Tong has seen bigger ones in this Taoyuan Inn, maybe it is Dizi Pavilion, or Tianzi Pavilion Bar!

Inside the building, carved beams and painted buildings, exquisite and elegant.

Following Duo Lan's resignation, Ye Tong came to the second floor, looked at the layout inside, and sighed: "It's a small building with the name of the attic, and it costs two hundred taels of blue silver every day. It's really expensive, what a pity!"

Yao Nu asked: "What a pity?"

Ye Tong said: "It's a pity that we won't live in the county for a long time in the future, otherwise, we will buy a large piece of land and build a bigger, more beautiful scenery, and more inns than here. At that time, nothing will happen every day." To do it, just take the bead plate and calculate how much silver taels you collect every day."

"Ahem..."

Yao Nu was amused by Ye Tong's "magnificent ideal", and said: "My lord, the land in the county is very precious, and there is no power or power, even if you have money, you can buy a large area of ​​land very slowly. "

Ye Tong smiled and said: "Although we have no power or power, we have connections! Don't forget, Mu Xiaochen, the son of the majestic Prince of Zifu County, still owes me favors. If I make such a request, Isn't he eager to help me? I'm afraid, the price can be lowered to the lowest."

"That's true!" Yao Nu laughed dumbly.

When Mu Xiaochen was mentioned, Yao Nu couldn't help but change his expression, and asked: "My lord, we have arrived at the county town, do you want to meet Mu Xiaochen?"

Ye Tong hesitated for a moment, then said: "Of course we need to see each other, but don't be in a hurry, just wait! Let's sell the elixirs we brought and save more money."

Yao Nu smiled and said: "Ellips are the treasure that every cultivator dreams of. It is not difficult to sell them. You should have seen them on the way when we came here, right? Before many pavilions, there were people setting up stalls to sell items. Tomorrow , I just need to set up a stall in front of the pavilion, and people will come to buy it."

Ye Tong said: "The price of pills is not cheap, who can buy so many pills?"

Yaonu laughed and said: "This is the Taoyuan Inn, and everyone who can live here is worth a lot of money, but it's a question of whether anyone is willing to buy pills."

Ye Tong said: "Let's put it on! If you can sell a little bit, you just need to keep what we use."

The dinner was bought by Yao Nu from the kitchen building of Taoyuan Inn. Ye Tong stayed in the building to practice all the time. The injury in the past few days did not heal, but the biggest impact on Ye Tong was caused by massive blood loss. Burden, as night falls, red lanterns are lit in Taoyuan Inn, making the place beautifully decorated.

In the sky, at some point, it began to rain lightly. The road that used to have a lot of people was already sparsely populated. Occasionally, messengers from the inn would pass by in a hurry, and they would disappear at the end of the road after a while.

Ye Tong didn't feel sleepy. For the past few days, he was sleeping on the back of the dragon, lion and eagle. He was very energetic. He stood alone at the window, watching the drizzle outside, and silently calculating in his heart. According to the current cultivation speed, how long would it take to break through to the fifth level of Qi refining.

He knew that he had to become stronger.

In the mountain camp opened by Baishun Trading Company, the not-so-large-scale beast horde already gave Ye Tong a faint sense of urgency. He didn't want to leave regrets when he was weak, so he could only speed up his pace of becoming stronger. .

Look up, look up at the sky.

Ye Tong suddenly felt a shock in his heart. A ridiculous but bold idea grew in his heart without any warning. He failed to cross the catastrophe, and his soul traveled to this world inexplicably. Then, it means that this world really exists, and there is also a gap between the world and the earth. It just has space dimensions, or space barriers, or distant cosmic galaxies.

If my strength can become stronger and stronger, and even one day, I can break the space barrier of this world, and I can move freely between the universe and the galaxy, then, will I have the ability to find the earth and return to the earth?

Or, can a cultivator in this world be able to ascend to the fairy world after breaking through to a certain level? If you can go to the fairy world, can you still find the big brother and the others?

One thought after another kept churning in Ye Tong's mind, and the excitement made his blood boil a little, until the breath fluctuations from a distance woke him up from his fantasy.

"That is how the matter?"

Ye Tong clearly saw a thin man wearing a black training suit and a mask covering his face, leaping towards him from a distance at a very high speed. Behind the mysterious man, dozens of elite men wearing armor and holding swords The warrior chased him aggressively.

"Prisoner or gangster?" Ye Tong showed curiosity, but his figure retreated to the back, so as not to be seen by the mysterious man and the elite soldiers behind him.

"My lord." A deep voice came from behind.

Yaonu hunched his body, glanced out of the window, and said slowly: "It's raining, the weather is cold, it's time to close the window and rest."

Ye Tong didn't close the window, because he knew that closing the window now would be noticed by people outside.

After a while, as the people outside disappeared, Ye Tong closed the window, turned to look at Yaonu and said, "This Taoyuan Inn doesn't seem to be peaceful! In this county, do you often see officers and soldiers chasing and killing others?" ?”

"That's not going to happen."

Yao Nu shook his head and said: "Actually, the law and order in the county is very good, because the king of the county is well-governed, and everyone knows one thing, that is, don't wantonly kill in the county. If there is a fight, then no one will pay attention to it, but if it affects ordinary people, they will be arrested by the city defense guards."

"Yeah!" Ye Tong didn't ask any more questions after hearing that. For him, the scene just now was just a small episode in his life, not even the process of his own acting.

In the morning after the rain, the world seemed to have been cleaned, the blue sky, the fresh air, and everything in front of him seemed to be full of life. Ye Tong opened the door and found that the drug slave had already woken up and was chopping wood to make a fire outside. I don’t know where he came from. I also got a simple stove and an iron pot.

"Doesn't Taoyuan Inn have a kitchen? Why do you have to do it yourself?" Ye Tong asked, living here was originally for convenience.

Yao Nu shook his head and said: "The old slave just went to the kitchen building and wanted to borrow their kitchen utensils to cook medicinal meals, but they were unwilling to say anything, so I went outside and bought a simple stove and an iron pot. Wait for an hour, and there will be a medicinal meal later."

Ye Tong smiled wryly and shook her head.

He knew Yao Nu's good intentions, so he didn't bother to bother him so much. Looking at the peach blossoms outside, he turned and went back to the pavilion, moved out a long table and a chair, and placed them on the roadside in front of the door, and then , He took out the refined medicine again and placed it on top.

"Selling pills." Ye Tong wrote four words on a piece of rice paper, and finally found a sign, and pasted the rice paper on the sign.

"Hehe, there is actually someone selling pills here? Is it true or not?" A surprised voice sounded.

There were two young people who came, and the young man who spoke looked honest and honest, while the other young man had a scar at the corner of his eye and looked cynical.

"It's definitely fake. Can there be pills for sale in this shitty place? What kind of joke are you talking about? Rather than saying that there are real pills for sale here, I would rather believe that there are girls from Piaoxianglou warming the bed here." The cynical young man, He rolled his eyes and said.

"That's right!" the two said, and gradually moved away.

Ye Tong looked at the backs of the two leaving, with a bit of helplessness on the corner of his mouth, it is really difficult to do a small business these days, what about the trust between people?

A few more people came to the booth afterward, but they never bought any pills with skeptical expressions. Instead, a middle-aged man played with the jade bottle for a while and asked Ye Tong the price of the jade bottle.

An hour later, the drug slave served a bowl of medicinal food, and after bringing it to Ye Tong, he glanced at the few people who had just come to the booth, and then said, "Master, your body is important, let's eat the medicinal food first!"

"Yeah!" Ye Tong found that the people in front of him didn't intend to ask the price, and he didn't bother to wait any longer, so he reached out to take the porcelain bowl.
