Four hundred and fortieth chapters secret land two
Daxia, Chao'an County.
The blazing sun shines on the ground. There are not many pedestrians on the street, only a few passers-by holding umbrellas walking in a hurry, quickly running from one shop to another.
The gray-brown wooden building is exposed to the sun, and from time to time you can hear the slight sound of wood exploding.
In the Tsing Yi Restaurant located to the west of the county town, several restaurant waiters were sitting lazily on the benches in front of the door, carrying wooden basins filled with cold water and constantly sprinkling water on the ground.
As soon as the water vapor touched the ground, it splashed into bright fine ash, and at the same time a slight amount of heat steamed up.
"Why is this damn weather so hot!?" A waiter muttered in a low voice, stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and casually rubbed it on the towel on his shoulder.
"Is there anyone there?" Suddenly, two Yamen officers wearing official uniforms walked in from the door of the restaurant. The two thick-waisted and round-shouldered officers were panting heavily at this time, and their uniforms with black background and red lines were even more...
It was soaked with sweat and clung to the body. It made people feel uncomfortable just looking at it.
"Second Master Zhang! Third Master Li, please come over here! The shopkeeper has recently brought a basin of white ice and placed it on the second floor. Many customers have gone up to the second floor." A waiter hurried up to greet him.
"Hey, I know Shopkeeper Jin has a way to get even the white ice that only wealthy officials can afford!"
The two waiters were immediately overjoyed and walked up the stairs.
Before the two of them could completely go upstairs, another figure appeared in front of the door.
"Waiter, please bring us some food and drinks. Just our signature dishes. Please order more food." A calm and deep man's voice came from the door.
The two waiters turned around and looked, both of them couldn't help but shuddered slightly.
The guest in front of me was incredibly strong. He wore a bamboo hat on his head and an ordinary gray cloth shorts on his body. His exposed wrist was as thick as an average person's arm. When he walked to the door of the restaurant, it was almost like a wall, blocking out all the light outside.
Cover most of it.
"Okay! Sir, please come in." A waiter hurriedly came forward to greet me.
The footsteps of the two servants stopped on the stairs, and they looked in the direction of the man from above, their hearts skipping a beat.
"The Chen family has posted a reward notice, but it has provoked a lot of monsters and monsters. Go ahead and don't worry about them. Let's drink ours." The older officer patted another man on the shoulder. "This is none of our business.
."
The two of them spoke very quietly, but they still could not escape the ears of the man in the bamboo hat.
He raised his head and gently took off his bamboo hat, revealing an ordinary face that was cold and sinister. It was Lu Sheng who had left Ziyan Villa for a long time.
After he got the location of the three platinum stone pillars from Ju Yan, he went straight to the first one without stopping.
That is Chao'an County.
Chao'an County is located in a remote area, a small town surrounded by mountains. Lu Sheng inquired about the situation here for a while.
I learned that something strange happened to the Chen family, a wealthy family in this county, over the years. They have been offering rewards to strange people to help solve the problem. However, there has been no success.
But recently, the Chen family took out another precious treasure as a reward, saying that whoever can solve the strange thing will give the treasure to the other person.
The treasure is called the Eight-Treasure Coral Lamp. It is an extremely exquisite fiery red coral decoration, covered with precious stones, pearls and jade. It is extremely precious, only slightly inferior to priceless exotic treasures.
There are even rumors in the world that this coral lamp is actually the one that the Nine Palace Sword Master carried with him when he died unexpectedly. It contains the terrifying skills of the Nine Palace Sword Master who dominate the world.
Under such rumors, a large number of people with extraordinary skills came from all directions. The Chen family, which was just a wealthy family in the county and city, was immediately in danger when faced with this scene, and was unable to compete with so many martial arts masters.
The current situation is extremely troublesome, and the government has no choice but to increase the number of troops to protect the city and implement curfews and other means.
Lu Sheng had a general understanding of the military situation in this world. The rivers and lakes of the Great Xia Dynasty were dominated by traditional internal qi and external martial arts. There were famous internal sect masters in the rivers and lakes. There were also famous people in various states and states. There was a demon sect representing the Hu sect.
The right path represents Shanhe Clan, Taishan Sect, and Shenyi Sect.
Lu Sheng just met some robbers on the way and interrogated some basic common sense from them. As for how powerful the top masters in the world were, he didn't know. This trip happened to come across the Chen family's affairs, and he also
I plan to simply explore the bottom.
Along the way, he carefully studied the basic spiritual power methods given by Ju Yan and the Heavenly Demon Jade Book, and roughly understood what should be done next.
It's just that he didn't dare to practice the skills given by that person casually, so he planned to find a few experimental subjects to try them out first.
The basic method of spiritual power was very simple since he had enough spiritual power. He could just use the method used by Sanbu Guardian Spirit to forcibly build the foundation.
As for the Heavenly Demon Jade Code, he hasn't figured out how to get it yet.
Holding the bamboo hat, Lu Sheng scanned the first floor of the restaurant.
"Just on the first floor, be quiet." He ignored the waiter's incoherent introduction and went straight to a table in the corner to sit down.
Another waiter quickly brought him some cold dishes and a pot of cold water.
"Please be patient, sir! The food needs some time to prepare, please wait a moment." The waiter tried his best to speak in the gentlest tone. The man in front of him looked like the kind of ruthless person who would never do anything but never move his feet. Ordinary people
I really can't afford to offend such a master who comes and goes.
"Well, let's go." Lu Sheng took out his chopsticks, picked up a peanut, and chewed it slowly.
After the waiter left, the first floor of the restaurant returned to its original calm. There were faint barking of dogs in the distance, mixed with the sound of pipa instruments.
Lu Sheng was very satisfied with this kind of tranquility. The temperature was indeed very hot, but it had no effect on him. After his spiritual power reached a certain intensity, the essence in his body turned golden. Every move he made was terrifyingly powerful.
He has also practiced some hard external skills in the Eight Demonic Ways. The changes in the cold and heat in the outside world, as long as they are not too drastic, are almost nothing to him.
After eating a few plates of cold butterflies, the tranquility of the restaurant did not last long. Another group of people came in front of the door. They were all young people dressed in gorgeous clothes.
Three men and two women, with an average age of no more than ten. They had swords and knives hanging from their waists, and their long hair was neatly tied like those of charlatans. But the childishness and agility on their faces showed that these people just wanted to pretend to be charlatans.
Boys and girls.
"Oh, isn't this a group of young masters? There are several eldest ladies and young masters here too? Please come inside! Please come inside!"
The fat shopkeeper on the second floor ran downstairs and hurried up to greet these young second-generation people.
"Shopkeeper Jin, I haven't been to your Tsing Yi Restaurant for a long time. What new dishes have been served recently? Hurry up and try them. It's so hot here that you're covered in sweat after just a few steps." The young man who took the lead had a gentle temperament, but
Still unable to conceal his words, he was full of energy and confidence.
"It's easy to talk about it. I, Lao Jin, have all the names of the dishes in my mind. I will go into the side room and tell the young ladies immediately." Shopkeeper Jin persuaded these second-generation people to go up to the second floor.
When they went upstairs, the group of young people also noticed Lu Sheng sitting in the corner eating. They all showed faint interest.
Lu Sheng's attire can be said to be completely in line with the image of the Jianghu hero that these second-generation people have heard from storytelling and martial arts since they were young. Although he looks a bit fierce, this does not hinder their strong curiosity.
On their trip, they heard that there were a lot of Jianghu people coming to Tsing Yi Restaurant, so they took the initiative to sneak out to see the novelty.
Along with the family martial arts that he had practiced hard for many years, he started practicing martial arts in the world and became famous.
Among them, Chen Qun is the leader. Among the second generation of the Chen family, he, Chen Qun, is the only person of his generation who has mastered the family martial arts of Qimei Wushuang Sword to the level of proficiency.
After this group of second-generation people went upstairs, there was a little noise soon, as if someone was having an argument. But the sound soon fell silent, and there was no movement.
Lu Sheng still sat and ate his own food. After finishing the food at one table, he thought it tasted good and asked the waiter to serve a new dish.
Soon, another strange pair of two people appeared in front of the restaurant.
A hunchback wearing a mandarin jacket woven with rich gold threads, and a middle-aged woman in white wearing a veil, slender figure, and a sword hanging from her waist, entered the door one after the other.
"Serve the wine, ask for the best wine, the more the better!" The hunchback, with his head lowered and full of white hair, ordered in a hoarse voice as soon as he entered the door.
"Okay! Okay! You sit down first, the wine will be here soon!" The waiter knew that the other party was a member of the world and could not be offended, so he quickly led the two of them to the second floor.
Unexpectedly, the hunchback glanced at Lu Sheng in the corner and stopped leaving.
"On the first floor." He led the middle-aged woman to sit one table away from Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng glanced at the two of them, ignored them, and continued to eat his own food. He felt that something big might happen to this Tsing Yi Restaurant, but it had nothing to do with him. He was just a spectator.
After the hunchbacked two people sat down, more people soon came in one after another. Some of them had knives, some had swords, and some had steel whips and meteor hammers. It was obvious at a glance that they were people from the world.
The atmosphere in the restaurant became more and more solemn. Although there were more and more people, the voices became quieter and quieter.
As time goes by, the sun gradually sets in the west, but everyone in the restaurant seems to be worried about something. They are eating their meals, drinking wine, and secretly looking at other people around them.
Lu Sheng finished the third table of food slowly, wiped his mouth with the hot towel provided, and slowly drank a small drink with his back against the wall.
Bang!!
Suddenly, a loud noise came from the stairs on the second floor.
"Fuck you! You little bastard, do you really think I dare not cut you??" a rough voice roared angrily.
Then there was a rapid sound of metal clashing.
"Brothers!!" The screams of several young men and women overlapped.
Bang!
A figure rolled down the stairs on the second floor. He rolled all the way down and fell heavily on the ground in the lobby on the first floor.
Lu Sheng glanced at this person, and it turned out to be the noble young man Chen Qun who had looked so confident before.
Chen Qun was holding a broken sword in his hand. His handsome face was bruised and swollen, and it looked like he had been beaten badly.
"Brother, that kid just made a slip of his tongue, why did he act so ruthlessly?" Another elderly voice sounded from upstairs.
"Don't Feihe in Yunxi. I've cut this guy off today. He has one arm and one leg, and he says the same thing. Whoever dares to stop me, don't blame me for turning my back and ruthlessly attacking him!" A rough voice announced his name with a cold voice.
As soon as the name came out, everything fell silent upstairs and downstairs.
Even the hunchbacked old man sitting near Lu Sheng's eyes moved slightly.
