Liao Zhai alchemist

Chapter 143

The ancient road, the west wind, and the thin horse.Cough man on horseback!
Outside Jinhua City, a thin man dressed in white and coughing from time to time was riding a skinny horse and was slowly advancing on the road.

The patrol postman glanced at him, then rode up on his horse and said to him, "Who are you? Do you have an ID card?"

Postmen have the right to check the identity certificate of outsiders at any time.Now the postman felt that this person was suspicious, so he exercised his rights.

The sallow and thin man coughed violently, as if he wanted to cough up his lungs.He was about to speak, but another cough interrupted him.

He didn't speak at all, but took out an identity badge from his pocket with great difficulty, and threw it to the postman.

The postman saw that the tuberculosis ghost was actually a scholar.Since he is a scholar, he naturally has the right to ride a horse and hold a sword.

He said to the consumptive ghost: "Okay, you can go to the city now. There is a Xu's Medical Center in the city, and the medical skills are good."

The tuberculosis ghost reluctantly took the ID card, nodded and continued on.After walking a few steps, he turned back and asked in a weak voice, "Where is the biggest brothel in this city?"

When the postman heard this, he immediately showed a look of disbelief, and then laughed loudly: "You are so sick and want to go to the brothel? I'm afraid you didn't climb on the girls and kicked your legs!"

After hearing this, the man showed displeasure on his face, and said, "Why do you talk like that, you don't deserve to live long."

After speaking, he drove the skinny horse towards the city gate.

The postman spat at him disdainfully, and said, "Even if grandpa's life is short, he's better than you, a consumptive ghost."

After he finished speaking, he continued to inspect the city gate.

After a while, he suddenly felt itchy all over his body.He subconsciously reached out and scratched.But the scratching made it even more itchy.

So he lifted his clothes and reached in to scratch.

It's much more comfortable now.But when he stretched out his hand, he was horrified to find that his hand was full of blood.

He was frightened at once, quickly opened his clothes to have a look, and found that there were light black spots on his body, these spots were slowly expanding, and the place he scratched just now was pitch black, and now he couldn't stop bleed.

He was terrified, so he rode on his horse and ran into the city. When his colleagues saw him like this, one of them immediately chased after him on horseback, shouting, "Old Wang, what's wrong with you? Slow down!" You are not allowed to gallop on horseback in the city!"

But the old king in front of him didn't seem to hear it at all, but kept running.The galloping horse frightened many passers-by, who cursed one after another.

The colleagues behind hurried to catch up. Gradually, the galloping horse in front became slower and slower. He finally caught up and cursed: "Old Wang, you are crazy! What kind of horse are you riding in the city? Wait and see how the team leader will deal with you !"

But he soon discovered that the old king hadn't moved at all.The horse had already stopped by the side of the road, so he hurried forward to take a look, and saw Lao Wang sitting on the horse, bleeding from seven orifices and no breath!
His expression changed drastically, and he picked up the whistle on his neck and blew it violently.

....................................................................................

In a restaurant in the city, Ao Qingxie was drinking away his sorrows.

There were wine jugs in front of her, and people began to stare.Ever since she was kicked out of Suicun Temple, she has nothing to do, she just drank to drink away her sorrows every day, and the gold and silver jewelry she wore was quickly spent.

I also drank from the original high-end restaurant to the current roadside restaurant.

The waiter at the restaurant looked at this woman, but frowned.He wasn't afraid that this person had no money to settle the bill, if he really had no money, he could sell her to a brothel.

Besides, with such a pretty face, singing a romantic ditty in a wine shop can also pay off the debt.

A beautiful person never lacks a way out.Xiao Er is frowning now because there are already many idlers watching her.

Some idlers are local hooligans, and some idlers are 'wife-shooters'.This woman is so beautiful, the value is not low.

Still the same sentence, a beautiful person will never lack a dead end.

Although Xiaoer also has the heart to sell her to a brothel to repay the debt, he still has a bit of conscience in essence.Just when he was hesitating whether to wake up the man.

A skinny horse came to the door of the restaurant, and the owner who led him was also a skinny man. How skinny is this man?As if a gust of wind could knock him down.

And he coughed from time to time after walking a few steps, which made him seem to be dying soon.

He tied up the skinny horse by the sink at the door, then walked in and said, "Little Er, warm up a jug of wine. Here's a plate of fennel beans."

Xiao Er looked him up and down for a while, and said cautiously: "Guest officer, these fennel beans are not cheap. You are..."

Fennel beans are boiled and fried beans with fennel. Although the beans are not very valuable, but the spices are expensive, so the beans are naturally expensive.All the gourmets who love to drink know that this thing is a magic weapon for drinking.

The tuberculosis ghost glanced at him, shook his head, and still took out a dozen big eggs from his bosom, and placed them on the table one by one.

"Is this enough?" the thin man asked.

"Of course it's enough." Xiaoer laughed apologetically, reaching out to get the money.

"You can take the money. If the wine is not good and the beans are not fragrant, I will lose my temper." The skinny man said lightly.

When the skinny man said it, the little boy withdrew his hand embarrassingly.Small street shops like them sell mixed wine, so there is no reason not to mix it with water.But because it is cheap, even if others drink it, they don't talk about it.

Xiao Er smiled and said, "Small shops can't sell expensive wine. If you think the wine is not good, please move to a big restaurant."

The thin man sneered and said, "If it wasn't for the call of a beauty, you would have thought I would come back to a restaurant like yours."

After he finished speaking, he unceremoniously sat at Ao Qingxie's table.

The idle man who was still watching the excitement took a look, didn't he come here to cut it off!Immediately someone said: "Consumption ghost, go drink while drinking, don't fucking meddle in other business, be careful this is the last drink!"

These bad things with sores on the top of the head and pus on the soles of the feet don't care about having another consumptive life in their hands.

The tuberculosis ghost glanced at them, ignored him at all, but said to Xiao Er: "You still have wine?"

Come on, good words are hard to persuade the goddamn ghost.The little second-hand towel flicked over his shoulder and went to serve the wine.

Ao Qingxie was drowsy from drinking, and suddenly found a thin and ugly guy sitting beside her. Although she was dazed, the only reason she had was still there.

She said, "Go away!"

The man smiled slightly, it's fine if he doesn't smile, when he smiles, it's like a skeleton laughing, it's always scary.

"The girl is drunk, and there are people with malicious intentions around her. When she wakes up, she is either in the brothel or lying next to some bastard. Wouldn't it be a breach of innocence?"

Ao Qingxie smiled coldly, took out the sharp knife in her arms, and said viciously: "Anyone who dares to touch me, I will give her a knife."

Although this Ao Qingxie is half-human and half-dragon, but her dragon nature is not obvious, she just learned some superficial martial arts under Ao Qinghu's teaching, and she didn't even develop her internal energy.There was no need to worry about her safety before, but now...

The skinny man shook his head and said, "With your knife, you can't even kill a chicken, let alone a human being."

At this time, Xiaoer brought up the wine and fennel beans.A small plate of beans exudes the unique aroma of fennel.

The skinny man couldn't help but took one and threw it in his mouth, and then chewed, the corner of his mouth was bleeding.

Ao Qingxie took a look, pointed at the corner of his mouth and said, "You...you're bleeding."

The man wiped his mouth and said indifferently: "It's okay, I'm used to it. I won't bleed later."

He said, drinking another glass of wine.

Only this time, more blood flowed from the corner of his mouth...

This time, not only Ao Qinghu saw it, but other drinkers also saw it.

"Hey, this guy is so addicted to alcohol that he will drink until he vomits blood." Someone said dumbfounded.

"Shopkeeper, aren't you afraid that this person will die at your place?" Someone watching the fun said jokingly to the waiter.

Having said that, the shop clerk was a little panicked.He hurried forward and said to this person, "This guest..."

Before he finished speaking, the guest glanced at him.This look made the Xiao Er suddenly tremble in his heart, as if he was being watched by a tiger.

He immediately stepped back three steps, and then entered the back hall without turning his head.He was intimidated.

There was more and more blood at the corner of the man's mouth, and his brows were also wrinkled.

"No, it doesn't even taste like beans." He glanced at the fennel beans regrettably, and finally stopped eating.

Frightened by this person, Ao Qingxie's alcoholism also eased a bit.She put down some copper coins and hurried out.

As soon as she went out, those idlers who watched the fun also left.

The man also sighed and said, "It's a pity for Douzi."

After finishing speaking, he put down a few elders, turned around and walked out of the wine shop.

Ao Qingxie staggered forward, she was a little dizzy now, and wanted to hurry back to the inn.

But at this time, two big men suddenly caught her beside her and drove her directly to the alley beside the street.

She immediately knew that something was wrong, took out the dagger in her arms and stabbed at a big man.

But after all, they were drunk, and the two big men were on guard, so they immediately grabbed Ao Qingxie's hand and said, "Young lady can't be too fierce."

As they spoke, they led the man into the alley, and then they were about to tie him up.

Only at this time, they heard a horse snorting behind them, and when they turned their heads, it was the skinny horse snorting and looking at them with a playful expression.

The horse's expression was very mean, and the skinny man was standing beside the horse.

When the two men saw it, their eyes turned fierce. They each took out short knives from their pockets and said, "You consumptive ghost, it seems that you really want to die!"

The man glanced at them and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.Then he wiped his mouth and said, "I'm not a tuberculosis ghost, you can call me sick son."

The two big men grinned and said, "We'll call you later, son of a bitch!"

After speaking, he rushed forward with a sharp knife in his arms.

The sick man did not rush, he took out a gold embroidered pocket from his bosom, then took out a small sword the size of an index finger from the pocket, and shouted at it: "Go!"

The little sword flew out immediately, and became more than three feet long in the blink of an eye, and after a turn, two large heads were chopped off.

The sword beheaded two big men, then became smaller again, and flew back into the hands of the sick young man.

He put the sword back into the pouch, and said to Ao Qingxie who was already staring blankly inside, "Girl, I saved you, how are you going to thank me?"

Ao Qingxie's eyes widened, and she murmured, "Yes, it's Shuzhong Jianxiu!"

Just when she finished speaking, she finally got drunk and passed out immediately.

The sick young man shook his head and said: "Such a beautiful person, I can't be picked up by others." After speaking, he went to pick up Ao Qingxie and put him on his horse's back.

Don't look at his thin, fragile appearance.But holding Ao Qingxie with one hand is not a problem at all.

................................................

After an unknown amount of time, Ao Qingxie finally woke up.

She rubbed her swollen head, then looked around.

This is a luxurious house with a large bed made of mahogany and a floor-to-ceiling bronze mirror of equal height.A wardrobe wardrobe made of golden nanmu.These decorations are similar to her boudoir in Suicune Temple.

But she knew that this was not her boudoir, it was a luxurious room in a high-end inn.

At the round table with upturned legs in the middle of the room, a thin man like a hemp stick was applying medicine with his upper body naked.

There was a huge wound on his body from his shoulder to his waist.This wound almost split him in half, but now there is a trace of light and a trace of gray gas entangled in the wound, revealing the dense white bones, squirming internal organs, and growing flesh and blood.

Looking at the wound, Ao Qingxie didn't feel sick at all, she asked, "How did this wound come about?"

The man was still smearing the green ointment, without raising his head, he said, "It was chopped up by a man who was dressed in whiter clothes than me. If my horse wasn't so fast, the body would be cold now."

"If you are not dead from such a wound, you must be very powerful." Ao Qingxie continued.

"It's okay. There are not many people in this world who can kill me. As long as my luck is not too bad, I can live for a long time."

The green ointment couldn't cover the wound at all, so the man simply ignored it and put on his clothes again.

"Then can you kill someone for me? As long as you help me, I'll do whatever you want." Ao Qingxie continued.

"Really?" the man said in surprise.

"It's really about killing people." Ao Qingxie said lightly.

"Is it true that you treat me casually? I have a lot of needs, and three times a day is the least." He paused and said on his scrawny chest.

Ao Qingxie gave a dumb smile, and said: "You are now struggling once a day, how about three times a day?"

The man said unconvinced: "As long as I recover from my injury, I will definitely be able to do it three times a day!"

Ao Qingxie shook her head, apparently not believing it, even if he recovered from his injury, he would still be a fool.She said lightly: "As long as you can kill him, I will do whatever you want me to do. I am yours."

The man asked curiously, "Who is this man who has such a deep hatred with you?"

Ao Qingxie said bitterly: "His name is Zhang Wei, and he is from the Qingwei sect. Do you dare?"

When the man heard this, his face showed a bit of surprise: "Is it Zhang Wei from Eshan?"

Ao Qingxie nodded and said, "It's Zhang Wei from Eshan!"

"That's just right, I want to kill him too, I'll take over the job! Just wait for me for nothing." The man said with a smile, as if he was a skeleton.
