Shendou Continent

Chapter 83 Xu Jing Suburbs
After bidding farewell to Wanjing, Elder Song, Li Donghui and others, Lin You embarked on the northwest road to Xu Jing.Xu Jing is the capital of the Guangchu Empire, about [-] miles away from Jiangzhou.Almost equivalent to the distance between Hangjing and Huaizhou, Lin You stopped and stopped on the road, and it took him nearly a month before he arrived at the outskirts of Xujing.

It was already the beginning of November at this time, and snowflakes were already falling on the outskirts of Xu Jing.

That night, Lin You stayed in an inn in the suburbs. This inn has two buildings with a big yard in the middle, which is considered a big shop in the wilderness.At around midnight, Lin You took off his coat and started a fire in the room.The physical fitness of senior fighters is so cold that you can't feel it, but warming up to the fire in winter is also a kind of enjoyment, just like he chatted with Deming and Luke around the campfire in Penglai.

"There are assassins! Catch the assassins!" Suddenly, a piercing cry pierced the night sky from outside the window.Immediately afterwards, a figure flew out of a room on the second floor of another building in the inn, fell heavily in the courtyard, and never got up again.Following that figure was a masked man who jumped out. After she landed firmly on the ground, she quickly fled towards the gate of the courtyard.Almost at the same time that the masked man landed, five or six people rushed over.After a while of busy work, there were only deep and shallow footprints left in the snow.

In the world of martial arts, this kind of fighting and killing is common, and Lin You is used to it.He only looked out of the window, then turned his head and continued to cook his own fire.But many times, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop.Lin You didn't want to join in the fun, but others came to him.

"Open the door, search for the assassin." "Open the door, open the door!" Outside the room, there was a burst of violent knocking and roaring, and the doors of the inn rooms opened one by one.The voice was getting closer and closer, this time it was my turn.Lin You didn't want to be troublesome, so he opened the door in cooperation.

"An assassin came to the inn just now, the person who killed us, we are now searching one by one to see if there is any suspicious person." A scarred face explained the purpose of coming.When Scarface was speaking, the other two fierce youths were already looking around in Lin Youfang.It's not a big room at all, so I checked it out in a while.But this group of people made a mess of his room, the quilt was also messed up, and even the storage spiritual bag he untied was thrown aside.Lin You may not care about other things, but there is his treasure in the spiritual bag, so how can he throw it away at will.Seeing that this group of people were a little arrogant, Lin You's face was also a little ugly.But without knowing the situation behind these people, he didn't get angry easily.Although his cultivation base is not low, he doesn't like to show it everywhere, so he often hides his soul power, and Scarface and others don't notice it.Soon, Scarface and his party went to other rooms to knock on the door. Lin You simply tidied up the room, and went to cook his own fire again.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night for the others in the inn.Affected by the assassin incident just now, there was a quarrel next door, as if a fighter was dissatisfied with the arrogance of Scar and others, and fought, Lin You didn't care about the result.

On the other side, a big battle is going on in the woods.

When Dao Scar entered Linyou's room to search, the masked assassin was already surrounded by six big men.These big men are all experienced in the Dharma Realm, while the Assassins have a slightly higher cultivation and are new to the Brahma Realm.For an Assassin, fighting against one or two or three of these people is no pressure, but a pair of six is ​​a lot of pressure.

Soon, a burly man among the six was the first to slash at the assassin with a knife. It was only a rudimentary martial arts skill, and the assassin easily avoided it.But the second and third swords of the remaining people had already been killed, so she had to dodge left and right, and deal with it carefully.She also immediately drew a sword from the spirit bag at her waist to parry.In order to break out of the tight encirclement as soon as possible, she directly activated her five spirit rings, four of which were full, and the last one only lit up two small spaces, showing a level 42 Brahma Realm cultivation.

With the blessing of the soul ring, her ability to avoid dodge and defense has improved rapidly. Even if she really can't avoid being hit, the degree of injury will be much lighter, and most of the power of the sword will be resolved by the aura released by her soul power.But in the face of six opponents with close soul power, she still wanted to kill a bloody path as soon as possible, and the most important thing was to escape first.

Soon, the six big men also released their soul rings, all with soul power above level 35.Under the blessing of the soul ring, the two big men with knives slashed up together, and the attack power was obviously stronger.At the same time, a man behind the assassin jumped up and struck with his sword. What she was facing was a pincer attack from both sides.This is not over yet, there are three people in the east, west, south and south directions of the assassin waiting for an opportunity to attack at any time.In this situation, the assassin was extremely nervous and tired of coping.Six people took turns to slash and stab, and the assassin soon fell into the disadvantaged again.

After a stalemate for a cup of tea, her leg was already bleeding from the sword.what to do?If the consumption continues like this, exhaustion of soul power will definitely lead to a dead end.

At the critical moment, the assassin yelled, and struck out a shooting star sword technique like a celestial maiden scattered flowers, shocking the six people back.Taking advantage of this gap, she immediately took out an object the size of half a fist from her waist, and threw it hard on the ground. There was a sound of "boom", and then thick smoke rolled up. She took the opportunity to escape quickly, and disappeared in place before the six big men could react.

Lin You, who was warming up by the fire in the room, didn't seem to be sleepy. His eyes were on the brazier in front of him, sparks were shining in his eyes, he just watched quietly without saying a word. heat.At this moment, the sound of banging on the door was gone, and the sound of bickering and smashing also gradually stopped.The sound of walking near and far also gradually died down, and around midnight, the inn returned to silence.

Suddenly, Lin You's ears twitched, and he noticed that a person with strong spirit power was quickly approaching him.Soon, a masked black figure flew in from the window.When she landed, she rolled forward and came to Lin You, covering his mouth with one hand, and at the same time, a sword was already pressed against his neck.

"If you don't want to die, don't make a sound." The masked man said.The soft voice was a female voice.

Lin You didn't speak, he wanted to take down the man in black with his backhand, but judging from what he said, it seemed that the woman didn't want to kill him, he wanted to see what she wanted to do, so he didn't do it right away.Although the sword was very close, it might not be so easy for the assassin to kill him.

Therefore, he smiled jokingly and said, "Don't worry, I'm not interested in your grievances, but it's not a good habit for a girl to break into a man's room at midnight." sword.

"Bold!" The woman looked at him sharply, and lifted the sword in her hand again. The blade of the sword was closer to Lin You's neck, and it was already touching the flesh of the neck.

Feeling the coldness of the weapon, Lin You didn't talk nonsense anymore, and directly flashed five soul rings at the same time, shaking the sword in her hand off in an instant.Then quickly put away the soul ring, and continued to hide the soul power.

With just one click, the woman was stunned, she turned out to be a master.She stared blankly at the man in front of her who had returned to his normal appearance, wondering if she should run away.

"Sit down! They have searched the room just now, and they won't be coming for the time being." Lin You said to the woman, and then went on to warm up the fire without even standing up.

"Who are you?" The woman quickly calmed down.

"You don't have to worry about who I am. As I said, I'm not interested in the grievances between you."

"Can I trust you?"

"It's up to you, I just don't want to be nosy. You can stay here at night. You are injured, this is a golden sore medicine." Lin You finally stood up, found a porcelain bottle from the storage spiritual bag, and handed it to the woman.

"Thank you!" The woman took the medicine, looked at this handsome man, and said softly. The hostility in her heart was much less, but she still had a sense of alertness.Lin closed the window and was about to open the door to go out, but the woman asked anxiously, "What are you doing?"

"I went out to make it easier for you to take off your clothes and apply medicine. Do you want me to watch you?" Lin You replied unhurriedly.

"No, it's just a leg injury. Fighters don't care that much, just turn around and go."

"Okay." Lin You complied, and continued to cook with his back to her.

The woman sat on the edge of the bed, while ripping off her top and pants, took the golden sore medicine and gently applied it to the wound, while looking at Lin You vigilantly from time to time, for fear that he might do something wrong.But Lin You didn't look at her. With his hearing, he could detect if a woman wanted to harm him. As for looking at the woman's body, he was not interested.I don't know what the face looks like, and what's so good about it.

Soon, the bleeding on the woman's leg stopped, she tore off the hem of her jacket, and simply bandaged the wound.Looking at Lin You again, her eyes softened a lot.

"Thank you!"

"You're welcome. But why are you back again, not afraid that they will catch you?"

"They don't think this place is safe. On the way I came here, I guess they should have evacuated overnight. And I have a leg injury, so I can't walk very far. This inn is better than the wilderness."

"That's the truth."

After that, Lin You didn't ask any more questions, and the woman didn't speak, and the two sat quietly on each side.After a while, Lin You meditated in front of the pot of fire and entered into a state of concentration, which was both a rest and a practice.If the woman wanted to kill him, she would have done it the first moment she rolled over, and if she hadn't done it just now, he probably wouldn't do it now.Of course, his spirit is still on alert.

As for the woman, the situation was the same as Lin's. She didn't feel sleepy, and she didn't dare to fall asleep.Looking at the man's back, she was curious, why didn't she ask her?Why help her again?But the man didn't speak, and she just watched quietly.Gradually, she also got tired of watching. If the man wanted to rape her, he would have done it just now when she was taking the medicine. Now she was willing to believe from the bottom of her heart that the heroic man in front of her was a gentleman.So, she slowly let go of her guard and fell asleep leaning on the edge of the bed and her clothes.It was late at night, she was hurt, and she needed more rest.

Gradually, the charcoal fire was extinguished, and the room also disappeared into the night.
