Chapter 269 Trouble on

shiricheng

Shiricheng is located to the east of Kunlin Sword Sect, and is at an angle to Shuangque City. ●⌒, the main selling point of the city is a small market composed of hunters and farmers collecting and killing various prey, attracting a large number of small businessmen to buy and resell

.

There is a huge stone ball in the center of the city. It is so heavy that no one can move it. Some people call it the Stone Sun. As time goes by, word spreads that the original name of this small town was forgotten and replaced by Stone Sun.

Suncity.

At this time, the sun was shining brightly, the guards at the gate of Shiri City were drowsy, the cicadas were chirping constantly in summer, and the temperature was sultry.

There is no entry fee for the city gate, and hunters and medicine farmers are constantly coming in and out, trying to earn a living here.

There are also merchants and traders driving ox carts and horse carriages in and out, purchasing goods from here and leaving.

This small border town is far away from the world, far away from disputes, and all it has is a peaceful and stable life. The worst thing is that there are a few market gangsters who go around eating and drinking, collecting some so-called protection fees.

There are very few people in the world here. The famous heroes and masters in Zhongfu and even the slightly famous forces are no longer here.

The surrounding area is notoriously poor and poor, and there are no rare medicinal herbs or rare materials produced, and it can only provide support for the small rich to take root in the ground.

Those who come in and out are either small businessmen or local honest Badajiao Orion medicine farmers. Most of the established residents are ordinary people who work sincerely.

Because it is located in a remote area and is not on the main road network, even tourists passing by do not pass by here.

So when Lin Xin arrived here with Zhao Ke and Si Jue, the guards guarding the city suddenly became wary.

Looking at these people, there is a woman dressed in black and wearing a bamboo hat, and two other men, a young man with a helpless smile on his face, and a middle-aged man with an indifferent expression. The most important thing is that all three of them are carrying weapons.

It is not the type commonly used by hunters, but an anti-personnel weapon that serious Jianghu people would use.

The three of them didn't have a carriage or an ox-cart, and they didn't have any escorts. They obviously came alone. With this look, you could tell that they were outlaws traveling alone.

Such people generally don't come to such a small town. The people who pass by are all going to another prosperous big city closer to the main road. This is a small place that is only used to supply the big city. Two or three people can come all year round.

Frequently.

"This is Shiricheng." Zhao Ke walked cautiously behind Lin Xin, "The branch is here. I didn't really believe it at first. After all, except for people from the government, I didn't see many people from the world.

But if you think about it more carefully, there are no charlatans here, but they can still maintain such order stably and safely, which is obviously not something that ordinary city lords can do."

Fairy Si Jue snorted coldly. "What do you know? All city lords are personally awarded by the dynasty. Even if it is just a small city, there are nobles who enfeoff the land. All nobles have enough power and manpower. It's just a small city."

"Fairy Si Jue is well-informed, but this guy is just a little bastard who has never seen the world, so naturally he doesn't understand." Zhao Ke was not angry either. He laughed twice and glanced at Lin Xin. He saw that he was not because of Si Jue's attitude.

I was angry, and then I felt relieved.

Lin Xin, however, took a rough look at Shih Richeng.

This small town is just a small city of a thousand people. It is considered good if it can live in a thousand people. The houses inside are mostly made of wood and stone, which are considered solid. However, almost every household has some animal fur or other materials hanging on the outside.

Medicinal hay. Apparently most of the residents here moved in from surrounding hunters or medicinal farmers.

"Let's go in first." Lin Xin took the lead and rushed towards the city gate.

The other two followed suit.

It's just that Fairy Sijue followed him obediently, but Zhao Ke glanced around with his eyes, and it was obvious at a glance that he was unsettled.

Following a group of hunters entering the city, the entire Shiri City was filled with the stinking smell of dried furs. Fairy Sijue frowned slightly and covered her nose.

Zhao Ke adapted quickly and looked towards Lin Xin in front of him, only to see that the senior's expression remained unchanged, as if he had not smelled the strange smell at all.

He was immediately impressed. When he came here for the first time, he couldn't help but hold his nose for a long time before he got used to it.

Perhaps this kind of strong endurance is the key to the senior's strength.

Suddenly something dawned on him.

The three of them walked along the street, bypassing the fur hunters setting up stalls on the ground, and Zhao Ke led the way. After walking around for a few streets, they finally arrived at a three-story building.

In front of the big drug store.

Several red-clothed officers with white belts walked out of it. They all had heroic figures, strong feet and impressive eyesight.

"It's a white belt!" Zhao Ke suddenly reminded in a low voice.

The Four Wonders Fairy also looked condensed.

The White Belt is a privileged organization under the Red Ridge Sect. It is a dynasty force in name, but in fact it is an intelligence assassination organization completely controlled by the leader of the Red Ridge Sect.

"Where the white belt is, there must be no good."

Si Jue hates the way.

"Does the Red Ridge Sect have a bad reputation?" Lin Xin asked casually, his eyes flickering as he watched the white belts move away.

"I can only pretend to be a ghost and win people's hearts. I am obviously a member of the devil's path, but I still act like a decent person and help the poor. It's just a hypocritical disguise!" Si Jue said coldly.

"That means your reputation is very good?" Lin Xin nodded slightly.

"When did you hear me say that your reputation is good!!?" Si Jue Huo Dao.

Lin Xin raised his eyebrows and was about to speak, but Zhao Ke rushed him to speak.

"Senior, senior, senior!" He came over with a flattering smile, blocking Si Jue's mouth that still wanted to speak. "You must not be the same as her. Qian Qian, you also know that she has been severely injured and her brain is not functioning properly.

Clearly, these days, haven't I been using too much force these days? Hehehe, I can't help it, woman, just don't be on the same level as her, I'm here to apologize to you on her behalf."

His voice was so low that Si Jue couldn't hear what he said. She had not recovered from her serious injury and was even weaker than an ordinary person now. But she had a bad temper and was very stubborn.

Lin Xin was also curious. The two of them had been living in the same tent during this period. One was a gangster in the city, the other was a chivalrous woman from a righteous sect, one had a frivolous temperament, and the other hated evil and was extremely beautiful. How did these two get along?

Together. According to logic, shouldn't Fairy Sijue cut Zhao Ke out of the tent with one sword? She could still tolerate him living with her and ruining her reputation and innocence.

Shaking his head slightly, he strode into the drug store.

There were several drug farmers inside who were settling accounts with the shopkeepers and haggling over prices.

Seeing the three people entering the door, another idle waiter came over quickly.

"What medicine do you want to order? Is it for redness, cough, or childish fever? This medicine shop is the best and most complete medicine shop in the city!"

At this time, Zhao Ke secretly took out a token from his arms and showed it to the other party.

The guy's eyes suddenly changed.

"This medicine is quite special. If you want to find it all, you have to ask Mr. Si Tang to come in person. If you three are not afraid of waiting, just follow me." After the clerk finished speaking, he winked at Zhao Ke.

He turned around and headed towards the inner hall.

Lin Xin and the others hurriedly followed. They passed through a gray courtyard with a water well, turned a few corners, and entered a round arch. Inside was a small white garden. A rich middle-aged man with a smiling face retracted his hands into his sleeves.

Waiting for them inside.

"Brother Zhao, you're welcome and safe!"

As soon as the three of them entered the small garden, they felt a faint invisible sound-proof film rising behind them, blocking the sound from leaking out.

"Brother Chenming, I'm having such a hard time these days!!" Zhao Ke showed an exaggerated smile and rushed up to give him a firm hug.

"Ku, I see you are very moisturized! Did you bring two of you here this time?" Chen Ming looked at Lin Xin carefully. Although Si Jue had a graceful figure and bright eyes, she was an absolute beauty at first glance, but she didn't know why.

Yes, he immediately unconsciously focused his attention on another middle-aged man.

"May I ask who you two are?"

"Nanfu branch member Honghua." Lin Xin introduced himself with his hands.

"Nanfu branch? So far!" Chen Ming said in surprise.

Si Jue, however, had a cold face.

"I am not a member of your association."

"Sooner or later, she will, sooner or later!" Zhao Ke said quickly to smooth things over.

But even so, the moment he heard that he was not a member of the congregation, an abyss-like aura suddenly appeared on Chen Ming's body, causing goose bumps on the bodies of Zhao Ke and Si Jue.

Although the Guangyao Society is not a big secret in the Central Government and many people know about it, they know that being too upright and without confidentiality is ultimately a bad rule.

Lin Xin's eyes lit up.

"My keepsake was accidentally lost. Please ask the branch manager to help me with it. It would be better to have some inconvenience in Zhongfu."

"Let me confirm it first. If it is true, such a trivial matter will not be a problem." Chen Ming said cheerfully.

After he finished speaking, he quickly took out a small box from the storage bag. When the box was opened, there was a small piece of black stuff like a plant rhizome.

He asked Lin Xin for a piece of hair and put it on the thing. Then he murmured a mantra.

Soon, the stem melted slowly, and the hair inside it swam slightly like an insect, and soon tied itself into a dark character in the mucus.

Seeing this word, Chen Ming also nodded slightly.

"Yes, Brother Honghua is indeed a member of the branch, and an important member. In this case, there is no problem with the route guide and identity certificate. I will issue it to you quickly. In addition, because the token is made of special materials, you need to

It will take some time to arrive, so please wait a little longer.”

Lin Xin nodded.

"This is no problem."

"These are all minor problems." Chen Ming said with a smile, "Now there are four major branches in the guild. The north was disturbed by a murderer from the Transformation Cave some time ago. Many key masters were exposed and died because of this. The Red Ridge Gate was also overrun.

You have gone too far. Not only did you not cooperate with us, you also reached a consensus with the Cave of Transformations.

"No way? Didn't Mr. Gongsun and the head of the headquarters rush to the north some time ago?" Zhao Ke was stunned (to be continued.)
