Chapter 142 The mysterious figure

 Chapter 142 The mysterious figure

"Bah, these beasts really don't regard us as human beings!"

However, as soon as the man finished saying this, he saw a burly man slap him in the face. With a "snap" sound, a big red mark was printed on the young disciple's face.

.

"That's enough! Give me some time to calm down!"

The strong man frowned and looked majestic, so that the young disciple did not dare to refute at all.

Little did they know that on the roof, another green-armored guard was watching all this with a cold eyebrow. He held a silver needle as thin as a hair in his hand. As long as this person dared to speak rudely again, he would decisively take action and shoot him on the spot.

Kill the opponent.

Between life and death, if the strong man hadn't taken action in time to completely disperse this disciple's anger, disaster would have been waiting for them.

The green-armored guard on the roof saw that there was no chance to take action, so he put away the silver needle out of boredom.

"It's such a pity that the chance to take action is gone."

The nine members of the Huofeng Escort Bureau remained silent. In fact, it was not that they did not want to say anything, but that Zhao Feng had noticed the existence of the man on the roof first. His purpose was never to resist oppression, but to get close to the six major families and go to

Get more important information.

It's just that this scene is defined as weak and incompetent in the eyes of other escort agencies. You know, Huofeng Escort Agency advertises that there is only one Mang Realm, while other escort agencies have at least two or three, and even more than five, so Zhao

The behavior of Feng and others is actually the most normal reaction. The big forces are showing off their teeth and claws, while the small forces are living quietly. This is the way to survive in Yunxi County.



In the inn, the family forces headed by the guards of the Tan family were drinking and eating meat, and they were having a great time. Because it was too late, there were not many meat dishes behind the kitchen, so the small sects and the Xu family chamber of commerce could only eat hot cakes.

The green vegetables on the table didn't have any meaty taste at all. Not only them, but the Helian family was also in the same situation.

But they didn't dare to complain. Compared to the people in the escort agency, they were much better off.

There were not many people with Xing Haifu. They had eaten early and went to rest. The Tan family guards assigned them three small rooms, the same was true for the Helian family, and the Xu family chamber of commerce had two small rooms.

The rest was divided among those family forces.

Although the Xu Family Chamber of Commerce and the Helian Family didn't interact much, they got along fairly well, and they settled in a few rooms at random.

Under He Lianjing's arrangement, Helian Haixin was alone in a room. He wanted to continue practicing tonight and did not want to be disturbed by outsiders.

Time passed quickly, and it was midnight in the blink of an eye. At this time, the old shopkeeper was sitting in front of the counter, yawning while supporting his shoulders with his hands, and the two waiters were standing there each carrying a tablecloth.

Snoring, they also experience sleeping standing up for the first time.

Just when the old shopkeeper's eyes were blurry and he was about to fall asleep, there was a loud "pop" sound from the table, pulling him out of his half-asleep state.

The old shopkeeper stood up with a start. When he wiped his eyes and saw the person clearly, he breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that it was a drunken family member who accidentally bumped into the counter.

I saw the other person was so drunk that he was shaking around like a puddle of mud, and he was still talking incomprehensible words.

"Shop... shopkeeper, you... you go... hiccup... and get a few more jars of wine, I haven't had enough fun yet..." However, as soon as he finished saying this, he fell to the ground and fell unconscious.

The old shopkeeper sighed. He woke up the two waiters and asked them to help him upstairs to rest. He sat back down. After the shock just now, he was no longer tired. He looked at the front of his eyes.

Everyone who was drunk couldn't help but feel a little emotional. The old wine that they had treasured for many years was originally intended for their son's future marriage, but they didn't expect that all of them had been drank by these people.

The old shopkeeper felt bad. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but sigh:

"When will this day end? Alas."



On the roof of the backyard of the inn, a green-armored guard was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed. His duty was to guard the goods on the carriage to prevent the enemy from attacking. At this moment, an extremely subtle sound came from the haystacks to the east.

movement.

Although the green-armored guard had his eyes closed, his soul was always outside. After noticing the change, he immediately opened his eyes, then flicked his finger, and a small silver needle shot out quickly, but unexpectedly,

A figure suddenly flashed out of the haystack. While avoiding the silver needle, he also fled towards the east.

The guard frowned, and then quickly chased after him. He thought it was just a wild rat, but he didn't expect it to be a living person. The other person chose to enter from the backyard, apparently thinking that there was no one guarding the place.

At the same time, the crowd in the inn also dispersed. Except for the one who was drunk at the beginning and the Tan family guard who headed him occupied a small room, everyone else went to the big room.

When they all went up to rest, the two waiters started busy clearing the tables. They were wiping the tables while chatting. The young waiter took the lead and said:

"Why do you think this group of people came to our Qiushan Town at night? And they pulled more than 20 carriages?"

The older man did not answer in a hurry. He thought for a while before saying:

"Maybe it's to pay the grain tax to His Majesty. Think about it, weren't there a few guards riding horses through the town some time ago?"

"You mean the ones who killed many people that day?"

The older waiter didn't dare to answer and just nodded. The other waiter was a little upset when he saw this. Of course he had seen those carriages pulling to the backyard, but so much food was grown by the people with hard work.

Why do these family forces use so many tricks to plunder?

Just when the two were still chatting, snoring began at the counter. The two turned around and saw the old shopkeeper asleep on the table, so they gave up.

The young waiter continued to work hard, but there was nowhere to vent his anger. The older waiter went to his bed and took a thin quilt and covered the old shopkeeper thoughtfully.

There was no other way, the shopkeeper's residence was now occupied by the group of soldiers in blue armor, so he had no choice but to go get his own quilt.

"Shopkeeper, do you think the guard on the roof can be caught?" The person who spoke was a man from the Huofeng Escort Bureau. Previously, the green-armored guards chased the mysterious figure. Naturally, they could not escape the detection of Zhao Feng's soul.

They would only talk about this matter if they were not here.

The lazy young man smacked his lips. Because the distance was too far, he could only perceive the existence of the mysterious figure, but could not judge the other person's specific state, so he was not very sure about this issue.
